Tian Xiyan was not mentally prepared for the chaos in Weizhou City.
At that time, he was still patrolling the city, urging the soldiers to keep their eyes open and not let the Xia people touch them. But suddenly he heard the news of the chaos in the city. After asking carefully, he immediately cursed.
At the time of Haishi, he ordered thousands of soldiers, fully armed, to attack the city where the turmoil was most serious.
Everyone knows that when facing a siege by external enemies, the city must maintain stability, otherwise the situation will be over. The chaos has just started, and the Xia army may not know yet, and must quickly suppress it with thunderous means, and then turn around and stabilize the city defense.
This was also the direct reason why he led a large number of elite troops to quickly quell the chaos.
In fact, the chaos was no longer limited to the city. Many wealthy families also armed their servants to fight against the soldiers who came to plunder. The rebels did not confront them head-on. When they saw the well-defended wealthy families, they immediately bypassed them.
, to pick up other soft persimmons. However, after pinching the soft persimmons, these big households will still be unlucky...
"I'm all fucking dizzy!" Tian Xiyan took out his bow and fired several arrows, killing several people.
Following his order, the sergeants did not hesitate and took action directly. After cutting and killing indiscriminately, a large area of "pure land" was quickly cleared.
Xie Yanhui ran back to Zhou Yamen at night. He and his father Xie Xitu looked at each other and understood each other. Wealth and honor are not so easy to get. You have to fight and risk your life. Now that things have happened, there is nothing to hesitate about. Xie Xitu,
Xie Yanhui and his son took more than a hundred servants and headed straight to the west gate.
They pulled many carriages, which were loaded with wine and dried meat. They looked like they were going to work for the army.
I met a few rioters on the road, and when I saw their lineup of more than a hundred people, I took a detour.
Simon arrived soon.
There were more than a hundred state soldiers on duty here, but there were only a few dozen in total. Seeing the governor personally working on the army, he was a little flattered and immediately called the robes to come and carry them.
"It's better to make you aware of our sufferings. I have offended you many times in the past, so I forgive you." The deputy general in charge of the city gate's defense said with a smile.
As for how he, a small lieutenant general, "offended so much" to the theoretical commander-in-chief of the state army, the governor, that's another matter. What's the ethos? What's the national conditions of the Weibo Republic!
"We are facing a formidable enemy, so we should work together as one." Xie Xitu quietly stepped aside and said with a smile.
The deputy general looked at the scene of quelling the chaos in the distance again, and felt a little regretful. The daughter of the Jun family of the Xie family is very beautiful. If the rebellion was more severe, maybe he could rush into the Xie Mansion and get his own way. It's a pity, it's a pity.
Got it!
Xie Yanhui personally came down to help carry it, but whether by accident or something, a wine jar fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
As if this was a signal, Xie's servants took out their hidden weapons from the car and greeted the guards with their heads covered.
Xie Yanhui quickly walked up to the deputy general, pulled out a sharp knife, and stabbed him directly.
The deputy general was about to laugh at Xie Yanhui for his lack of strength when he saw a sharp knife coming towards him, and he was so frightened that he stepped back. Several Xie's servants had already stared at him, and they slashed him with knives and axes, causing him to fall in a pool of blood.
Screaming in agony.
"Don't compete with these warriors, it's important to open the city." Xie Xitu's mind was still clear. When he saw several guards running away in confusion, and the servants actually chasing them all the way and killing them, he immediately ordered: "Kaicheng
!”
Xie Yanhui's martial arts skills were sparse, but at this time he was fighting with a desperate spirit. He led twenty or thirty of the most elite men and fought all the way in. After cutting down the last guard to the ground, he immediately turned the winch and lowered the
The drawbridge then opened the city gate.
The Xia soldiers outside the city saw the light signal they sent out and immediately rushed forward. Under the surprised eyes of the guards at the top of the city, a thousand soldiers crossed the suspension bridge that was suddenly lowered and rushed into the urn city.
After they left, the second wave of three thousand infantry was also ready, divided into several groups, and followed them silently.
Shao Shude stood on the temporary high platform and looked at the chaotic Weizhou City casually.
He doesn't worry about fraud. Even if he is cheated, it will only be the loss of the first thousand people.
He didn't particularly care about Weizhou City itself. It was just an earthen city, with only three thousand state soldiers in it. Whether it could be captured or not was not a matter of life and death.
Starting from New Year's Day this year, it was probably the smoothest year since he started his military career. In just over seven months, he had to conquer the four prefectures of Yun, Qi, Di, and An, and Huangzhou, Zizhou, and Weizhou.
There are seven states in total, and more than a million people are under its control - the city is not the key, but controlling the rural countryside is the key. Capturing a state city does not mean capturing a state, losing a state city does not mean losing a state, and cities do not
Producing grain, not meat, and actually controlling the population is the real benefit.
The occupation of the three counties of Gongcheng, Xinxiang and Jixian is not complete, and they still need to be carefully organized.
After the Xia soldiers rushed into the city, guards came down one after another from the top of the city and fought to stop them.
Tian Xiyan, who was suppressing the rebels, was horrified when he heard about it and quickly returned with his troops to help.
The two sides fought fiercely in the streets.
The guards really tried their best. Under the leadership of Tian Xiyan, they fought to the death and inflicted heavy casualties on a thousand soldiers of the Tianxiong Army who rushed into the city. It was not until Tian himself was killed by a stray arrow that he finally collapsed and scattered everywhere.
It's all over the streets.
Next came the familiar route of chasing down the remnants of the enemy. Everyone was familiar with the route and carried out it in an orderly manner, which lasted until the next morning.
Shao Shude has been staying in the camp outside the city.
Huo Liangsi, the envoy of the Xiaojie Army, returned to the camp with a large amount of food and grass, but his troops and horses only had 2,400 to 500 men left, which was actually more than 200 less.
"Did you take action during the food levy?" Shao Shude put down the history book in his hand and asked.
When going to the countryside to collect food, more than 2,000 people are expected to be divided into dozens of groups, and some people will be gathered together as a mobile force to respond to emergencies at any time. Once the people are dispersed, it is indeed easy for something to happen. If the Feilong Army goes deep behind enemy lines, the biggest
The loss is here.
"Back to Your Highness, it is true that some sergeants were ambushed and killed by ignorant countrymen, and they have all been dealt with," Huo Liangsi said.
The word "disposal" is so light, but I don't know how many bloody killings it contains. The traitors of Weibo, the Xijie Army, are indeed getting more and more into their roles.
"Why did the Wei people resist? I live in Henan and Guanxi, but there have never been so many people who dared to resist." Shao Shude asked.
"Because His Highness is from Kansai." Huo Liangsi hesitated for a moment, then said directly.
"Why? Aren't they all citizens of the Tang Dynasty?" Shao Shude seemed to have expected this answer, but still asked.
"Your Highness..." Huo Liangsi thought for a moment and then said something: "In the third year of Taihe (829), Yin Tong, a scribe from Weizhou, went to the countryside for business. He saw many Dou Jiande temples in the countryside, where the elders worshiped in groups, solemnly and solemnly, and he was impressed by the hero.
After the rise and fall, he wrote the article "Dou Jiande Stele"."
In the third year of Taihe, the Tang Dynasty has been established for more than 200 years. As the capital of Weibo, there are many Dou Jiande temples in the countryside of Weizhou, and they have become a place for villagers to offer sacrifices on a regular basis.
There are rituals.”
Yin Tong, a native of Weizhou, was very excited when he saw him and wrote the "Stele of Dou Jiande".
There is a passage at the back of the inscription: "It has been a long time since the death of Jiande. People in Shandong and Hebei may still talk about it and worship it, knowing that his name cannot be destroyed, and his influence on others will survive."
This shows the attitude of Weizhou literati Yin Tong, and perhaps also represents the attitude of a large part of the people of Hebei - the attitude of Hebei people more than 200 years after the founding of the Tang Dynasty.
Absolutely outrageous! Before the An-Shi Rebellion, Khitan Sun Wanrong and Li Jinzhong rebelled and invaded Hebei. After the rebellion was put down, King Wu Yizong of Hanoi suspected that the people of Hebei were aiding the Khitan, and the killings were extremely intense, reopening the scars again.
After the Anshi Rebellion, the imperial court was unable to control Hebei and became even more disloyal.
Originally, the unification of the Tang Dynasty was an excellent opportunity to bridge the differences between the East and the West, but it was a pity that something went wrong.
"Is there still Dou Jiande Temple now?" Shao Shude asked again.
"Of course there are, and there are many of them. They are found in Weizhou City." Huo Liangsi said.
"Without Taizong, Jiande would have conquered the world." Shao Shude said: "The army will not collect food for the military festival, and all of them will be brought back. I will allocate funds to rebuild the Dou Jiande Temple in Weizhou and offer sacrifices myself."
Dou Jiande was a frugal man, not greedy for money, not lustful, and did not eat meat. He lived a simple life and wore linen clothes. He was a loyal man. When he was farming in the countryside, he would try his best to help any family who had difficulties.
After the army was launched, all the captured wealth was distributed to the soldiers, and nothing was gained.
Captured the Sui Emperor's palace and obtained more than a thousand beautiful women, all of whom were released to reunite with their families.
Instead of killing the prisoners, the captured Sui soldiers and more than 10,000 generals were "given food and clothing" and "sent out of the country".
During the battle with the Tang army, they captured Li Shentong, Li Yuan's sister, Princess Tong'an, Wei Zheng, Li Ji's father Li Gai and others. They were all treated as guests and later released.
Strictly restrain military discipline, do not bully the people, and treat captured scholars with courtesy.
He was also very principled. Wang Gui, the hostile governor of Huazhou, was killed by his slave. The slave came to surrender with his head. Dou Jiande was furious and killed the man and sent his head back to Huazhou.
Shao Shude could not reach the level of Dou Jiande, but it did not hinder his admiration. Moreover, he was from Kansai, a sensitive country, so there was no harm in offering sacrifices.
"I heard that there is also a temple for the two saints of Anshi?" Shao Shude suddenly asked again.
"Going back to Your Highness, there are more ancestral halls for the two saints of Anshi in Youzhou, followed by Chengde, and the fewest in Weibo. There are the most Dou Jiande temples in Weizhou, and there are also Chengde, and there are fewer in Youzhou." Huo Liangsi said.
Tian Chengsi once built temples and ancestral halls for Anlu Mountain, Shi Siming and his son, and they were called the "Four Saints".
In the first year of Mu Zong's Changqing reign (821), the imperial court sought to pacify Huaixi, and Youzhou Jiedushi made Mr. Liu uneasy and surrendered to the imperial court. Mu Zong sent Zhang Hongjing to Youzhou and was shocked to see the temple of the two saints of An and Shi. So he ordered it to be destroyed.
They also opened Anlushan's coffin to kill the corpse, which triggered a rebellion in Youzhou. They killed all his followers and cronies and imprisoned Zhang Hongjing.
People's hearts and customs are indeed different in different places. You cannot take it for granted that everyone is willing to unify with you.
When Zhang Hongjing first entered Youzhou, he held an umbrella and was carried by the sergeants in a sedan chair. The Youzhou scholars were shocked when they saw it.
Hebei military commanders, regardless of whether it is cold or hot, are mostly the same as the soldiers. No one has ever seen a high-ranking official riding a sedan and holding an umbrella.
Zhang Hongjing read poetry and books, and ridiculed the Youzhou soldiers, "You can draw a bow with two stones, but you are not as good as knowing the character of a D." However, the Youzhou soldiers were conceited about their spirit and advocated martial arts, so of course they had no good impressions of him.
Hebei was an alien country in the eyes of the imperial court. But in the eyes of Hebei people, wasn't the imperial court the source of all evil?
Shao Shude did not intend to offer sacrifices at the Temple of the Two Saints of Anshi, but he could offer sacrifices at the Dou Jiande Temple in Weibo, which had a strong mass base.
As for what the court thinks, you don’t care?
"Your Majesty, Weizhou has been packed and ready to enter." Kang Yanxiao, the military envoy of General Tu, came over and reported.
"Okay! This is the first Heshuo state I won. You really should take a look." Shao Shude said with a smile.
