Perhaps it was because the past winter was too cold, and the weather warmed up very quickly after winter passed and spring came. One day it was snow and ice all over the fields, and the next day it was spring and flowers were blooming.
The general public does not have too many cluttered thoughts. Although they were inevitably hungry and cold in the past cold winter, as the weather warmed up, their moods became cheerful, and they all looked forward to better harvests in life and work in the new year.
Although this type of vision often fails, there is hope as long as we are alive.
Compared with the simple and simple thoughts of ordinary people, the mood of the upper-class dignitaries in the Northern Qi Dynasty is much more complicated, and it is difficult to judge and describe it with simple joys and sorrows of gains and losses.
There were certainly good things in this past cold winter. What made the people of Qi feel most gratified and happy was the death of Yuwentai, the old enemy of the Western Dynasty.
At that time, Emperor Shenwu made several large-scale military attacks, but not only failed to kill Yuwentai, but instead waited for him to become bigger and stronger in Kansai. This can also be said to be a knot in the mind of the people of the Eastern Dynasties.
Now that the Eastern Dynasty has replaced the Wei Dynasty and joined the Qi Dynasty, although there is no longer any legal competition between them, the Yuwentai Bafu who still insists on Wei unity in Kansai is always a huge threat to the Kanto regime.
Now that Yuwentai, the old enemy, was finally dead, and he died in the war with Northern Qi, the pressure that had been accumulated in his chest suddenly disappeared, and the people of Northern Qi felt that the world was vast.
It's a pity that the story doesn't end abruptly. The first half is so satisfying, but the second half is so frustrating and depressing.
If one were to choose the most hated person from the Western Dynasty in the past ten years, especially to Jinyang nobles, then it must be Li Boshan. And at such an important moment, Li Boshan was not absent.
And he also steadily displayed his usual disgusting level. After several battles, he not only completely reversed the situation on the battlefield, but also caused the Northern Qi Dynasty to lose Hu Lujin and other representatives and backbones of Jinyang nobles.
In the end, the Luoshui Alliance, which the two sides stopped fighting and negotiated peace, was definitely a great shame for the Northern Qi Dynasty, especially for a strong-willed and aggressive person like Qi leader Gao Yang. Moreover, this alliance also brought great consequences to the political situation of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
had a very serious and profound impact.
At the beginning of the confrontation between the East and the West, most of the tycoons from the six towns headed by Gao Huan stayed in the Eastern Dynasty, while Yu Wentai and others from the Western Dynasty were in a relatively weak position. Therefore, there were one after another incidents of town military governors fleeing eastward.
Now the situation seems to be reversed. Li Boshan in the Western Dynasty has become more powerful, attracting many Guandong clans who are ready to defect and rush to defect. When implementing the terms of the peace treaty, the Yecheng court needs to take stock of the Guandong people who are closely related to the Li family in Longxi.
, then I discovered that so many Kanto Tokiru had secretly defected to Kansai!
This incident naturally shocked people, and also gave a suspicious label to many members of the famous family, and even Prime Minister Yang Min was affected. It is said that when this situation was reported to Jinyang, His Majesty the Emperor was furious
He could not help but want to pull out a knife and stab Yang Min in the chest and abdomen to see if his heart and liver were red. After everyone persuaded him, Yang Min was spared.
Because these matters are too involved, many people are very secretive about them and dare not say anything more. Therefore, matters related to the Heluo War are also very low-profile in the country. Even the funeral of Xianyang Wang Hulujin was not discussed.
Affected to a certain extent, it was sad and honorable, and it ended hastily.
Therefore, in this past cold winter, the only thing worth mentioning was to defeat the Turkic army outside the Beishan Great Wall at the end of the year.
At least there were no confusing elements involved in this incident. It was a pure victory. It not only tested the effectiveness of the Beishan Great Wall in resisting Monan harassment, but also taught the Turks a lesson. I must have
In the next few years, the Turks may not dare to invade the border again, allowing the Northern Qi Dynasty to rest calmly and concentrate on exploring other areas.
It was really too bad before, so after the victory of this expedition, Qi Lord Gao Yang held a grand military reward ceremony outside Jinyang City to commend the soldiers for their merits, hoping to wipe away the previous decadence.
All the soldiers who went out to conquer the Turks, including the Shangdang King Gao Huan and the general Xue Guyan, were all highly rewarded. Xue Guyan even used this to become the king in one fell swoop and was appointed to important positions such as the governor of Sizhou.
Become the leading figure among Jinyang's nobles.
Although the Qi leader Gao Yang did not personally lead the army to attack the Turks this time, he was able to quickly get rid of the negative impact of the unsatisfactory war in Heluo and decisively ordered the attack on the Turkic army that had lost support. This also shows Gao Yang's wise decision-making and character.
Strong and courageous.
Since there were many defeats in the Heluo War, the defeat of King Gao Guiyan of Ping Qin no longer seemed too sudden among the series of defeats. Although he suffered some punishments after returning to the country, he still did not lose his favor and was retained as the leader.
The position of guardian.
In order to win the favor of the emperor again, Gao Guiyan ordered to gather the Turkic prisoners of war who had been sent to various states as slaves again, and petitioned to build a garden on the outskirts of Jinyang, with mountains and stones built in the garden to serve as a base for the mountains outside the Great Wall.
Then, the Turkic prisoners of war were distributed in the garden, and the emperor was invited to the garden to hunt and kill Hu Hu for fun, which was called Zhu Hu Xi.
After Gao Yang tried it for a while, he also liked the game very much. As the domestic situation stabilized, his mentality was no longer as vigorous and diligent as it was at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China. He became more and more fond of all kinds of enjoyment, but he also missed the game in his early years.
The magnificent experience of being outside the enemy's fortress and defeating thieves thousands of miles away.
Gao Guiyan tailor-made this Zhuhu play for him, which not only allowed him to recall the pleasure of conquering the enemy, but also saved him from the hardship of lying in the snow and drinking ice during the actual expedition. As the saying goes, whipping the whip outside the Great Wall during the day,
Killing people for fun, sleeping in soft quilts after dark, drinking with beautiful women, this is a truly carefree and carefree life.
So after several fun games, Gao Yang restored the official position and reduced fiefdom that Gao Guiyan had been deprived of before, and his favor was even greater than before.
After receiving generous rewards, Gao Guiyan felt inspired and became more enthusiastic about these things. In order to expand the area of the park, even the pasture fields around Jinyang were enclosed, and
It also allowed people to create ceremonial guards for the Turkic Khans and other dignitaries, thereby increasing the emperor's pleasure and sense of accomplishment in killing the barbarians.
However, the good times did not last long. While the kings and ministers of Jinyang were still playing and enjoying themselves, a piece of news about the war outside the Great Wall was quickly sent back to Jinyang from outside the Beishan Great Wall: Li Boshan from the west led his troops straight out of Hetao and arrived at Yinshan Mountain.
Zhiyang defeated the Turkic army of 100,000 and defeated the Turkic Mugan Khan!
When this news was sent to Jinyang, Qi Lord Gao Yang was invited by Gao Guiyan to come to the expanded amusement park to play a game of Huchao. After hearing the news, Gao Yang had a wild and carefree smile on his face.
He suddenly froze, and then his face suddenly turned gloomy. He threw the bows and knives in his hands to the ground, and at the same time shouted angrily: "Qiang'er can do this!"
Not to mention Gao Yang who was in a bad mood, King Ping Qin Gao Guiyan was still happily leading his guards in the depths of the garden to continue setting up the Khan's tent, striving to give the emperor a realistic gaming experience when he came here.
.
However, the place has been well arranged, but the emperor has still not been found. Gao Guiyan also said that the expansion of the garden was too big and it was difficult to find the emperor. He hurriedly led people to greet him, but he was halfway there.
I saw Liu Taozhi, the emperor's trusted lieutenant, leading a group of armored soldiers, approaching in a menacing manner.
"How can the governor and others go first if they don't obey the emperor?"
After Gao Guiyan saw this, he was still a little unhappy. He didn't want his carefully arranged theme scene to be ruined by Liu Taozhi and other rough warriors, so he immediately reprimanded him.
Liu Taozhi seemed not to have heard of this, but crossed his hands towards Gao Guiyan and said: "The general is following your orders. Please forgive me for being rude and do not resist!"
After saying this, he waved to the soldiers behind him and shouted: "Get King Ping Qin!"
Following Liu Taozhi's order, the soldiers swarmed forward and tied Gao Guiyan tightly.
Gao Guiyan was frightened and angry after being treated like this. He stared at Liu Taozhi and cursed loudly at first, but was unable to respond. After the soldiers dragged him back, he whispered to Liu Taozhi in panic: "The Chinese musicians the day before yesterday
, the Governor was delighted, and sent it to his house later, along with gifts of gold and silk. I would like to ask the Governor to tell me why this happened?"
After Liu Taozhi heard this, his expression softened slightly, and he came closer and whispered: "The Qiang people attacked the Hu outside the fortress and chopped the Khan with a wooden pole. The king is not guilty, and it is not a good show..."
"This, how is this possible?"
After Gao Guiyan heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he soon realized that his flattery had hit the horse's hoof.
Not only did Gao Guiyan find this unbelievable, Gao Yang also couldn't believe it. He didn't even have time to return to Jinyang Palace. He immediately ordered everyone who knew about the matter to come here for an audience. After repeated questioning, he was unwilling to confirm that...
This really happened.
When Gao Guiyan was tied up, Gao Yang suddenly became angry again. He stepped forward and drew out his saber. He repeatedly struck Gao Guiyan with the spine of the knife and cursed: "Dog thief, dog thief, fall for me."
Ambition! Qiang'er personally went out to kill the thieves, but the dog thieves tempted me to play this shameful game! Hateful, hateful!"
