Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

All I lack is opportunities. Once I have the opportunity, my talent will never lose to Zhuge Wuhou back then.

Because he was born in Shu since he was a child, and the country of Shu took Shu as its country name, it meant to inherit the Shu Han of the past, so he regarded Zhuge Kongming as his idol more and more, and often compared himself to Marquis Wu.

Although some people were unhappy, it was nothing. Wang Zhaoyuan only felt that they were jealous of his talent, so he was not convinced. Anyway, His Majesty trusted him, and he was not afraid of the shadow slanting, why should he be afraid of these villains.

But his followers reminded him that His Majesty can protect him for a while, but not forever.

He still remembers what the doorman said, "Your Majesty is in a high position, but he doesn't have much credit. His Majesty is fine when he is around. One day, if His Majesty is ill, I am afraid that the ministers will not accept it, and then disaster will strike.

In my opinion, the Duke should take advantage of His Majesty's health, strive for more opportunities, and prove himself with merit, so that he can protect himself and silence all his officials, and he can also leave his name in history and be as famous as Marquis Wu......"

At that time, these words touched him, and they completely touched his heart. One was to prove himself, and the other was to leave a name in history!

He has read poetry and books for half his life, isn't it just for these!

What he longed for was to be like Marquis Wu, who held great power and left his name in history for future generations to look up to and prove his ability!

Therefore, when the news that Shi Congyun sent troops from Yun and led an army of 20 to attack Shu spread to the Kingdom of Shu, Chengdu was shaken, and people in the whole of Shu were panic-stricken. Just like the Southern Tang Dynasty.

However, Wang Zhaoyuan insisted on sending troops and convinced His Majesty that if he did not send troops, he would have no chance to prove his ability at all!

How can Wang Zhaoyuan, who is familiar with military books, do nothing all his life?

In order to show his ability, he resolutely persuaded His Majesty to send troops, and began to think about how to repel Shi Congyun's army.

Full of confidence, he had already figured out how to deploy his troops halfway through, and after arriving in Kuizhou, he began to point out the country and dispatch troops in the Chinese army tent day and night.

Wang Zhaoyuan was very satisfied with this feeling that tens of thousands of horses were dispatched between his gestures and everyone obeyed. Afterwards, he wanted to follow the combination of righteousness and oddness mentioned in the military book, and sent surprise soldiers to Guizhou to attack the state of Zhou. organized with the generals.

They felt that this time was inappropriate, because there were many soldiers in Zhou, and they came from afar, and they were fighting at the gate of their house, and they should not go out to fight Zhou's army.

At first, he felt that these people were timid and unlikely to achieve great things, but in the end he agreed, because he also vaguely felt that it was better to figure out Zhou Jun's truth and truth.

After all, it is rumored that the Zhou army has 20, at least [-] to [-].

However, this wait lasted for more than a month, and news slowly came from the front that Zhou Jun had already captured the three states of Nanping and went south to fight Wuping, and had no intention of going west at all.

At first, this was the news brought by some businessmen and travelers, but he didn't believe it, but gradually more and more such news, Wang Zhaoyuan couldn't sit still, and sent scouts to investigate downstream along the river.

But Zhou Jun set up a checkpoint on the river near Guizhou, and they couldn't go south, so they could only find a way to walk the path on the mountain to feel their way into Guizhou to investigate the situation.

Until the beginning of August, the news became more and more clear, and the front line also sent back a clear battle report. Zhou Jun's commander Shi Congyun swindled Jiangling, and then defeated Wuping's tens of thousands of troops near Sanjiangkou in the lower reaches. The boats almost blocked the river.

After that, the Zhou army took Wuling directly, and the entire Wuping Kyushu surrendered.

After hearing such news, many generals breathed a sigh of relief, because it was obvious that Zhou Jun did not come for them, but for Nanping and Wuping.

His heart trembled, Shi Congyun was worthy of being a god of killing, Wuping's tens of thousands of troops were lost in his hands, if Shi Congyun fought against Shu, they might be the ones who died.

Everyone rejoiced, but Wang Zhaoyuan's face was ugly, because it was obvious that he was tricked by Zhou Jun!While Zhou Jun was declaring that he would attack Shu, and let them defend it hard, he turned around and went to Nanping and Wuping, playing them like monkeys.

Wang Zhaoyuan felt very ashamed and humiliated, and wanted to attack Guizhou in a rage, but was stopped by the frightened crowd, who explained the benefits to him.

To send troops like this is to fight Zhou Guo without declaration, and to act without His Majesty's order, which is a great sin!

Wang Zhaoyuan also calmed down, but the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he felt very useless in his heart. He couldn't say that he came with an army of tens of thousands and left a bold statement before leaving. After playing around for a while, and then returning in despair after accomplishing nothing, wouldn't he be laughed to death.

Just when he was in a dilemma, the retainer who had advised him before gave him a plan again, suggesting that he send a small group of troops westward and enter the boundary of Guizhou. At this time, Guizhou was already the territory of the Zhou Dynasty.

A small number of people will not go to war with the Zhou Dynasty. If something goes wrong, it can be explained, but if they are attacked by the Zhou army, it will be easy to talk if they have a war.

After returning to Chengdu, you can report to His Majesty that the Zhou army intends to march westward again, but because they relied on the dangers to hold back the pass west of Guizhou and bravely repelled several Zhou army attacks, the Zhou army was not allowed to advance westward, but could only march south. The crisis in Shu was resolved.

Wang Zhaoyuan was overjoyed after hearing this, and immediately carried out this order, sending Zhou Jun in teams of ten to cross the border to Guizhou every day, sending a total of about ten teams, not too many.

After several days in succession, Zhou Jun discovered their movements, and finally Zhou Jun ambushed them in mid-August.

Two people were shot dead by Zhou Jun on the spot, more than 30 people were injured, and four people died of serious injuries on the way back.

Wang Zhaoyuan was overjoyed, and immediately carried the dozens of injured people, and set up coffins for the four who died in the battle, calling them warriors who fought fiercely against the Zhou Dynasty, and then reported victory to the court and sent them back to Chengdu.

The army also began to confirm that the Zhou army had withdrawn to the north, and then retreated one after another. Soon the frontline Shu army forced the Zhou army back after fierce fighting in the west, and the news that Zhou army was sent to destroy Nanping and Wuping slowly spread in Shu.

Because Shu is surrounded by mountains, the news is blocked, and the news from outside does not spread quickly. In addition, the news is exciting and spread quickly. Slowly, the whole of Chengdu is boiling.

On the day of the "triumph" of the army, Meng Chang, the emperor of Shu, personally led all the civil and military officials out of Chengdu for fifty miles to meet Wang Zhaoyuan.

When seeing the wounded soldiers being carried back, His Majesty and all the civil and military officials "wept" one after another. His Majesty personally came forward to express condolences, and rewarded heavily the soldiers who were killed or injured in the fierce battle with Da Zhou.

Wang Zhaoyuan's prestige reached its peak for a while, and he was very proud. The "shadow of Shi Congyun" hanging over the subjects of Shu Kingdom gradually began to dissipate.

The whole city of Chengdu was celebrating, and many literati and poets chanted poems and wrote songs to praise their virtues, as if the Kingdom of Shu had defeated the Great Zhou Dynasty.

However, there are also people who are silently worried. That is Wang Zhaoyuan's deputy, Gao Yanchou. He is a little behind. It is heading south.

However, there were many wounded soldiers and dead soldiers in front of them. It seemed that they really had a battle with Zhou Jun. For a while, he couldn't figure out what was going on at the front line.

But seeing that Chengdu was already in a state of jubilation, no one would listen to his anti-tune, and it would make people unhappy, so he had no choice but to shut up.

.......

In Daliang City, at the Dachao meeting in late August, the officials issued an edict to remove Zhang Yongde from the post of inspection in front of the palace, but added the official inspector Taiwei and Tong Zhongshumen to make peace.

At the same time, Shi Congyun was promoted to inspect the capital in front of the palace, and served as the inspector of the capital in front of the palace.

This is a very big matter, because the inspection in front of the hall is the highest officer of the department in front of the hall. He is really under one person and above ten thousand people. The only one who is equal to him is Li Chongjin, the commander of the guards and horse infantry.

Li Chongjin was in Huainan at this time, so Shi Congyun became the real head of military officers!

And Zhang Yongde is equivalent to the position of contacting the front of the palace, but he is given a higher treatment, and Zhang Yongde is still the status of Jiedushi, and still has the power to lead troops.

But for such a major change, Baiguan reacted very calmly at that time, because as early as last year after the pacification of Huainan, many people believed that Shi Congyun's great achievements were either inspections in front of the palace, or the guards and horse infantry. All commanders make no doubt.

As a result, the officials dropped the matter because Shi Congyun robbed the princess of the Tang Dynasty.

Now that Shi Congyun is leveling Nanping Wuping again, it is logical that such a great achievement will be inspected before being promoted to the palace. Everyone is not too surprised...

Only Shi Congyun knew in his heart that it was conditional for the officials to order him to check all his cadres, and he was asked to fight the Liao Kingdom.

After the dynasty was over, Shi Congyun was surrounded by a lot of people, both civil and military, and he kept avoiding the crowd to go home, but when he got home after a few laps in the city, the crowd was full of people who wanted to visit. On East Street, the threshold of his house was almost broken, so Shi Congyun had to climb over the wall to go home.

But this time, Shi Congyun didn't dare to accept gifts anymore, so he hurriedly ordered the door to be closed tightly to prevent anyone from entering.

Chapter 214: Shi Congyun's Happy Life

In autumn, the weather gradually turned cooler, and a charcoal fire was lit at home, making Shi Congyun extremely busy.

"The physical strength I have consumed in the past two days is more than fighting a big battle!" Shi Congyun proudly put his arms around Zhao Shijian and Zhou Xian. The two were flushed and sweating profusely. Look.

Originally, they disagreed, and it was a technical job. If the skin is not thick enough and the brain is not good enough, maybe the fun will become embarrassing.

Fortunately, this is his specialty. Shi Congyun is eloquent, persuasive, and after continuous efforts, he finally got the two to agree.

Shi Congyun can be regarded as enjoying the blessings of Qi people, lying comfortably on the bed and not wanting to move, Zhao Shijian is thin-skinned, and repeatedly urged: "Stop making trouble, get up and wash up..."

Shi Congyun laughed and jumped out of bed: "I'll ask someone to boil water, you two can exchange feelings."

As soon as he left, the room suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. Zhou Xian was very embarrassed. Although she and Zhao Shijian communicated a lot on weekdays, this was the first time such an exchange...

She was too shy to speak, and even closed her eyes, not knowing how to respond.

At this moment, the other party said first: "Let's... let's get up first."

"Hmm..." Zhou Xian nodded, and the two got up in tacit understanding, even covered their chests with the quilt, and even avoided each other's eyes after looking at each other.

"He... he bullies people, what he said before must be biased towards us."

"Well..." Zhou Xian nodded repeatedly: "He lied to me in Jiangnan..."

"Really? How did he lie to you?" Zhao Shijian asked curiously.

Zhou Xian then talked about how he was deceived in Jiangnan, and when he talked about Shi Congyun's cunning and shamelessness, the two immediately chatted endlessly, they had a common topic, and the embarrassing atmosphere was resolved a lot.

The two chatted slowly, and after a while, a servant girl told them outside the door that the two realized that they were not wearing any clothes, and they felt awkward again. After the two courtesies, they finally decided to let Zhao Shijian wash first.

When the other party left, his eyes turned around her chest inadvertently. Zhou Xian was a little shy and proud, because she was indeed much bigger than ordinary women, and my husband couldn't put it down.

.......

Later in the afternoon, Shi Congyun went to look for Fu Liu again. Fu Liu was still very well-behaved, and she would agree to whatever she asked her to do, unlike Zhao Shijian and Zhou Xian, who were even more talkative.

Shi Congyun hugged the well-behaved little girl. Before he knew it, she was already 16 years old, but she was still very young, just a beautiful little lolita, so Shi Congyun was very careful, and planned to have another child when she was older.

With the hygienic conditions of this era, the child mortality rate is too high, and the mother is also very dangerous. At her age, a dystocia would be fatal.

"In a few more years, when you grow up, give me a child." Shi Congyun hugged the little girl and stroked her black hair.

"I...I think I want it now." Fu Liu raised his head, looking straight at him with watery eyes.

Shi Congyun laughed loudly: "I wish you could have one, but not now, you are still young, you have to listen to your husband, it is very dangerous for you to have a child now." Shi Congyun stroked her little head.

"Oh..." Fu Jinling felt a little lost.

Shi Congyun reached out from the corner of her clothes, "Come and see, have you grown up?" Jin Ling's face turned red instantly.

"Don't worry, you have to believe what your husband says. I am your husband, and I will do whatever I say. You have to believe it." Shi Congyun groped as he spoke, Sixth Sister nodded blushingly, and quickly lied to his chest.

"There will be children sooner or later, and I won't dislike you because I don't have children. To me, you are more important than children."

Sixth Sister nodded, her little face was already so red that it was dripping water.

"Your pelvis is not yet fully developed, and it is very dangerous to have a baby. After two years, when you grow up, you can have a litter."

"Hmm..." Fu Liu had already trembled.

.......

This matter of Tianshi Congyun didn't go anywhere, he just hid at home and didn't see anyone, knowing that many people wanted to see him, but now the location was different, he had to restrain himself.

Even when Wang Zhong, Shao Ji, Dong Zunhui, Luo Yanhuan, Wang Shenqi and others came to him, he let them in through the back door.

In the following days, there will be rewards for the entire army and follow-up deployment.

These matters were mainly carried out by the Privy Council, but the front office also needed help. Fortunately, the officials allowed him to rest for half a month, so that Shi Congyun had time to do the things he liked with his three wives. It was rare to relax and enjoy life.

One night, Shi Congyun finally fulfilled his wish and asked Zhao Shijian to try the pose he had planned, and also learned about her meeting with Empress Fu and what they said from the tortured little goblin.

Afterwards, Shi Congyun carefully considered the matter and found that the little woman was very smart.

"To reward you, we will do it again."

Zhao Shijian put his hands against his chest: "It's business..."

Shi Congyun had no choice but to stop temporarily, "Hebei is very important, but I don't have the right person, wait, I think of someone..."

As he spoke, he reached out his hand dishonestly, but was held down by Zhao Shijian, and the little lady said angrily, "I want to get down to business."

Shi Congyun thought for a while, and he already had an idea in his mind.

Hebei is really important to the Great Zhou Dynasty. In the history of Zhao Kuangyin’s mutiny in Chenqiao, the person who received the highest reward afterwards was not the Conglong hero who followed him to Beijing with him, but the two brothers who helped him guard Hebei at this time.

It shows the importance of Hebei. With the growth of the imperial power, the importance of Hebei's Fu family will inevitably decrease. less and less important.

Power is guaranteed by the army. The Central Forbidden Army has won successive victories over the past few years and has continued to grow. It has expanded to more than 18 people, close to 20.

The growth of the central imperial army was followed by the growth of the imperial power, and with the growth of the imperial power, the power of the local governors would be continuously squeezed, which was inevitable.

Like Li Jun, the Jiedu envoy of the Zhaoyi Army, the supervisor sent by the government a few years ago dared to beat and scold him, but after Shi Congyun captured Huainan and destroyed Nanping and Wuping, would he still dare?Don't dare at all, the supervising army sent by the imperial court made life much easier.

The same is true for the Tianxiong Army. As the imperial power increases, the gradual decline of the Fu family is inevitable, unless they can allow their younger generations to gradually enter the central government.

Shi Congyun also thought, Empress Fu is indeed a smarter woman, and she can still think of these long-term things.

........

A few days later, Shi Congyun had already prepared the people on his side. These two men were originally his own messengers, and they had been asked to send battle reports to the rear for several major victories before.

Moreover, these two people are from Chanzhou, Hebei, and they have followed their historians for a long time. They were his soldiers at the beginning. Shi Yanchao passed by Hebei when he followed Guo Wei to the south. They just joined the army, and now they have followed the historians for more than ten years.

The point is that these two brothers both read more books and can read and write, which is just another important reason why Shi Congyun brought them with him.

One of these two people was called Zhang Zhengtao and the other was called Zhang Zhenghai.

Shi Congyun talked to them and told them about this matter. The two were originally from Hebei, and naturally they had no objection to letting them go back to Hebei, and they both agreed.

Of course, the most important person is Guo Tingwei.

This Southern Expedition also allowed Shi Congyun to see Guo Tingzhi's excellent diplomatic skills and ability to adapt to changing situations, it can only be said to be very capable, and he deserves to be a direct descendant of Guo Ziyi.

This time, the imperial court rewarded Guo Tingwei as an envoy of the Zhengzhou regiment, but did not seal the specific functions. This shows that the members of the Privy Council also understood that Guo Tingwei was one of his subordinates and meant to let him arrange it himself.

Jiedushi has judges, secretaries, promoted officials, engaged officials, etc., all of which Jiedushi can appoint and remove by himself. Even if they want to report to the court, it is only a process.

Shi Congyun also made up his mind, and made a request to Empress Fu through his sixth sister. Zhang Zhengtao, as the envoy of the Tianxiong Army, Zhang Zheng will also serve as the general of the Tianxiong Army, and Guo Tingwei needs to lead the Bozhou local foreign tooth army.

The armies under Fanzhen Jiedu are classified. Generally speaking, there are Yajun, Foreign Yajun and Zhoubing. The three are collectively called Fanzhenbing.
