Chapter 1767 The famous anti-gold general, I will give you another chance to correct your name
Xiao Tang looked at the dejected Qu Duan, and sighed slightly, saying: "Qu Duan, although you were often rude at first, but at that time, you and I had some sympathy for Xiaozhong.
Over the years, you have indeed improved your ability in leading troops in battles, and you have made many achievements. Not only are you an outstanding general in the Western Army, you are also well-known in Jingyuan and other armies. However, you have the talent of a general.
, the future is unlimited, but now it has ended like this, but have you ever thought about the reason?"
Qu Duanjian said that his originally decadent face suddenly seemed to be shrouded in a layer of hostility. The corners of his eyes twitched violently a few times, and he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "It's not because of that fellow Zhang Jun who hated me.
He is rude to his words and deeds! There are also Wang Shu, Wang Xie and his like, as well as that evil villain Kang Sui... not to mention Wu Jie, the beast with a human face and a beast heart! Zhang Jun, the dog thief, although he said he was willing to reuse and promote me, secretly there are many
Suspicion, and he is indecisive in dispatching troops and horses, how can he be put to great use?
However, Wang Shu's fellow, relying on the power of the imperial court, kept me restrained, but he was a mediocre person who did not know military skills. He repeatedly delayed the Russian war. I did have the intention to get rid of him and seize the military power, but when the matter was urgent, that fellow
If the remaining soldiers of the Western Army were defeated and damaged, shouldn't they be killed? And Wang Xie actually allowed his soldiers to plunder the people of Guanxi, causing unrest in the people's hearts; Kang followed the rats and exploited the corrupt Mo army.
The money and pay made all the sergeants feel chilly. I only wish I had not killed those guys! Although Wu Jie was a general who was good at using soldiers, he was also a villain who secretly harmed his colleagues!
When the thieves who have been cut to pieces work together and plot to kill me, if I can still survive, I must..."
"enough!!!"
Before Qu Duan finished speaking, he heard loud and angry shouts. When Qu Duan raised his head again in surprise, he saw Xiao Tang's face was as dark as water, and he said in a solemn tone: "Qu Duan! You keep saying this
You say that you were harmed by a treacherous villain, which is why you are in such a desperate situation today, and you haven't felt that you have done anything wrong until now? The reason why you were killed was all because of other people's jealousy of you, and you didn't.
Not at all? Okay, let’s leave others aside for now. I, brother Li Xiaozhong of the Jingnan Army, have recaptured the counties in Shaanzhou that fell to the hands of the Jinlu. Zhang Jun originally ordered you to lead the western army on Jingyuan Road to rescue quickly, but you
Refusing to send troops! You said that other treacherous villains framed you for deceiving the emperor, but you have resisted military orders several times. If it were not for a time when the country was in war, you would have been left to wait for a price, and you took advantage of the situation to be domineering, and you have violated military law several times.
capital offense?
It would be unjust if you were the only one who was framed. Did you know that if I hadn't gone north to aid Taiyuan Prefecture, I would still have divided my troops to aid Shaanxi Province to protect Li Xiaozhong and the soldiers of the Jingnan Army, and even the borders of Shaanxi Province would have been brutally destroyed by the Jin Dynasty.
The blood debt of the army's massacre must also be blamed on you, Qu Duan! In the face of national calamity, the Song army has been fighting among itself, but in fact you have always been involved! You said that it was because Wang Shu and his like were incompetent in using troops that you thought of killing him, but you
Why didn't you plan to take advantage of the turbulent situation to kill superior officials for your own power, fight for military power, and raise prices with the imperial court? In the final analysis, it is because you are stubborn and arrogant, and you have offended countless colleagues. This is why you are now facing death.
The cause of the disaster!"
Qu Duan's expression suddenly changed when he heard Xiao Tang scolding him face to face. After a while, he slowly lowered his head, as if sighing, and murmured: "That's right! I, Qu Duan, call myself Jing." The land is peaceful for the people, resisting external humiliation and avoiding life and death, but it is not a bright and upright person, and has done a lot of bad things... But if Xiao Renxia is willing to allow me to explain a few words... After all, the Jingnan Army under the command of Li Xiaozhong was an army organized by Xun with the permission of the imperial court when he conquered Tianhu in Hedong. After all, it was not a faction of our Western Army. And our Western Army had previously suffered from military morale due to the eunuch Tong Guan's control of the northwest military power. During the turmoil, the army went on an expedition to the south of the Yangtze River and Lahou even taught that guy to split up the Western armies and disperse them. The remnants of the Liao Dynasty's northern expedition were defeated, and then the Jinlu invaded the Central Plains. Our Western army was also withering away, and the lives of the remaining generals, Shierlang, were also getting worse. The power of the Jin Dynasty is extremely difficult to stop. If there is a slight mistake in the war, I am afraid that the reputation of our Western Army, which has been guarding the border of the western border for more than 100 years to protect the homeland and the country, will be completely wiped out. ...
Regardless of whether it was the Bianjing court or various military departments, Xiao Renxiaxun was very clear about the differences between families and factions. If I am not just ruthless and cruel, I hope that the Jin Army can help them. In addition to Li Xiaozhong, who was also favored by the imperial court at that time, it seems that he was deliberately promoted to restrain my colleagues in the Western Army, and he did not hesitate to teach the people of Song Dynasty in Shaanxi Province to be invaded by the Jin Army Tatars again... If I sent troops to help the Jin army at that time, the Jin army would The army may not be able to intercept the back roads of key passes, or encircle points to reinforce and ambush our army. At the beginning, I was really narrow-minded and only considered that for the sake of an army that was not directly related to our Western Army, I would have to take advantage of many of my subordinates. Erlang's life? I, Qu Duan, did have selfish motives and felt guilty towards General Li Xiaozhong, but at that time, I looked on coldly and just thought about guarding our territory... As for how I, Qu Duan, ended up in such a desperate situation today... "
Just as he was speaking, Qu Duan paused and sighed: "If I were still arrogant and powerful in the past, I am afraid that most of what Xiao Renxia said to me today would not be heard. But now I have passed away at the gate of hell. After this experience, I learned the hard way and realized that in the past, I took advantage of the turmoil in the current situation and tried too hard to control the military power of the Western Army. I had already made many enemies, so I brought it upon myself... It's just that I was framed by a traitor. The imperial court would not tolerate it, but I served the country and the people bravely and accumulated many achievements, and then my life was cut short, but you taught me how to be willing to do so?"
After Qu Duan said sadly, he raised his head again, and when he looked at Xiao Tang again, his brows could not help but reveal an expression of reluctance and pleading.
Xiao Tang was silent for a moment, and suddenly said in a long voice: "Qu Duan, since I came in disguise with a group of brothers and killed the officials and sergeants who escorted you to Gongzhou Prison Department, I was not able to rescue you and escape." , the plan to avoid being brutally killed. But you must also think clearly about one thing: after all, you were arrested and awaiting trial for the serious crime of falsely accusing the emperor. Zhang Jun has already made arrangements, and he must take you Life, even if I went to the Gongzhou Prison Department, I would probably die a tragic death, but I don’t know if there will be a time to reverse the case and clear my name. However, although I was granted the title of Grand Marshal of the World’s Soldiers and Horses by the official family, it was all because of the great disaster of the Jin Kingdom. Therefore, in fact, you are in harmony with the Song Dynasty, and there will be disputes in the future... If you go with me, you will be convicted of being a traitor on death row. The official career of the Song Dynasty official has no hope... In this case , and you are willing to do so?"
After listening to Xiao Tang's words, Qu Duan couldn't help but smile miserably, and sighed: "Xiao Renxia, is there any other way for me to go now? Even if I, Qu Duan, was arrogant in the past and brought disaster upon myself, after all, have I ever done anything for
The country has gone through life and death, but today it has suffered so much injustice and hatred. It is not that I have failed the imperial court, but that the imperial court has failed me. If Xiao Renxia had not led the rebels from all over the country to turn the tide, rectify the Jinlu chaos, and become a powerful force now,
It is also the aspiration of the people in all places in the Song Dynasty, and no matter what happens to me, I cannot surrender to the foreigners and act as a mischief... The imperial court wanted me to die, and I had to die, but the rescue I received from Xiao Renxia was so cruel.
Well, it also taught me that Qu Duan still has the opportunity to fight on the battlefield and make achievements... As long as he can still live and make achievements, who would be willing to be killed in vain? Xiao Renxia is willing to save his life, I, Qu Duan.
..Naturally, I will entrust my life to Xie in order to repay my great kindness!"
