Former Qin Fengyun

Chapter 25 The Rebellion of the Five Dukes [5]

When the Sigong opened the imperial decree, he saw that it said, "The widow treats you with great kindness. Why bother to turn back? If there is no conquest now, you should stop the soldiers and settle down, and everything will be as before." After seeing it, the Sigong looked up to the sky and laughed, Then they all left the imperial decree on the ground.Then he raised his troops out of the city and attacked Chang'an directly.

Facing such a situation, Fu Jian sat on top of the golden palace, and said to himself in despair: "It seems that only one war can calm things down."

Wang Meng went out to salute and said: "King of Heaven, you can use the east and west lines to defeat the rebels. Afterwards, general Yang Shicheng will attack Shanggu, and left general Mao Song will attack Anding. Chen and Jianjie general Deng Qiang will attack Puban, and former general Yang Anhe will attack Puban. General Zhang Hao of Guangwu attacked Shancheng. He took the defensive position against Fuliu and Fushou on the eastern front, while Fushuang Fuwu on the western front took the offensive. Both Pu and Shanxi's armies were thirty miles away from the city. Already flat, let’s work together to take it.”

After Fu Jian listened, he understood Wang Meng's intention.Putting all the famous generals of the Qin State on the eastern front is to prevent the Yan State from taking advantage of the fire and looting.He was also afraid that if the pressure was too tight, Fu Liu and Fu Shou would vote for Yan to protect himself.As for the Liang country in the west, there is no need to worry about its weak national strength.Therefore, he nodded and said: "According to Aiqing's words, arrest Sigong for questioning."

After the dynasty was over, Wang Meng invited all the generals and Quan Yi who had gone on this expedition into the mansion, and hosted a banquet for them.He said to the crowd: "This expedition is about the survival of the Qin State. I also hope that you will do your best to wipe out the bandits."

The generals responded: "Yes!"

Then, Wang Meng said to Quan Yi: "Please trouble me for everything in Beijing."

Quan Yi hastily saluted and said: "Quan Yi owes his favor to the Heavenly King, the prince will not dislike using it, and he will definitely be loyal."

Wang Meng laughed and drank the wine in the glass with Quan Yi.

Wang Meng said again: "Heavenly King is merciful, and will definitely save the lives of the four princes. Therefore, this is the biggest hidden danger of the Qin State, so" he did not continue.

Everyone immediately understood what it meant, and said in unison: "Kill without mercy!"

Wei Gong Fu Shou, who is timid and timid by nature, was at a loss when he saw that the leading troops were the famous former general Yang An and Guangwu general Zhang Hao.Because he knew very well that these two men had made great achievements in battle, and he had no generals in his hands who could compete with these two men.Therefore, he who "would rather give to outsiders than domestic slaves" decided to surrender to Yan, opened the west gate, and welcomed the Yan army into the city.Because this matter was no small matter, Yang An and Zhang Hao immediately led troops to defend Huayang.

In the Golden Palace of Ye City in Yan State, Fan Yang King Murong De went out to salute and said: "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, the four princes of Qin State have rebelled."

The little emperor Murong Xi opened his eyes wide and said in surprise, "Treason?"

Murong De, King of Fanyang, nodded and continued: "The first emperor should be appointed by the heavens to make peace with Liuhe. Your majesty compiled the order and it will be followed. Today, the Fu clan's flesh and blood are separated, and the country is divided into five. It is God who bestowed Yan on Qin for help. If you don't take it from heaven, you will suffer from it. Wu and Yue's affairs are enough to see. It is advisable to order the Taiwei Huangfuzhen and lead the soldiers of Hebei, and they will go to Puban. The king of Wu led Xu, and Luo's soldiers rushed to relieve Fu Shou .If you buy rewards immediately, you must wait for the wind to respond."

After listening to it, many ministers in the court nodded in praise and went out to salute to express their approval.

But Taifu Shangyong Wang Murong Ping went out to salute and said: "Your Majesty, Qin is a great country. Although it encounters civil strife, it is not easy to break through. The sage is wise, but he is not as good as the late emperor. My talents are not as good as the late Taizai King Taiyuan. Therefore, we maintain the Yan Kingdom Stability is the top priority.”

The Empress Dowager Kezuhun, who was sitting next to the emperor, understood why he blatantly opposed the matter regardless of public opinion.Because if you send troops to Qin, in order to ensure victory, you must send Wu Wang Murong Chui.But in this way, King Wu is like a dragon entering the sea and letting the tiger go back to the mountain.It is difficult for myself and Murong Ping to control this person in the palm of my hand.

Therefore, she nodded and said: "The Ai family also agrees with the Taifu's words. Don't bring up this matter again. Retire." After speaking, she took the little emperor and left the Golden Palace.And some officials who understood the reason of this matter couldn't help shaking their heads and sighing.At the same time, Murong Chui, King of Wu, bowed his head and left without saying a word.

Wei Gong Fu Shou was very anxious when he saw that the Yan army was not coming.So, he sent a letter of divorce and sent it to Wu Wangfu in Yan State.

King Murong Chui of Wu, who was drinking away his sorrows in his mansion, saw a servant walk in.He saluted and said, "I would like to report to my lord, there is a man from Qin outside the mansion asking to see me."

Murong Chui immediately put down his wine glass and said, "Please come in."

The slaves salute and say they are leaving.

Not long after, Qin Ren came in, and after seeing Murong Chui, he saluted first, and then offered the letter in his arms with both hands.When Murong Chui opened the letter, he saw that it read, "Fu Jian, Wang Meng are all outstanding men, and they have been plotting to be Yan for a long time. If we don't take the opportunity to take it now, I'm afraid that the monarchs and ministers of Yan will regret it in Yongdong."

Murong Chui knew that when King Goujian of Yue wiped out the state of Wu, he exiled Fuchai, King of Wu, to Yongdong.But at the moment, it is hard to protect himself, if he mentions attacking Qin again at this time, his life may be in danger.Therefore, he said to the Qin people in a depressed manner, "Go back."

It is precisely because of the unexpected assistance of the Empress Dowager Kezuhun and Murong Ping, the king of Shangyong, that there is no worry on the east front.But the Western Front was not going well.

Yangong Fu Wu, who was in a stable body, paced in the hall restlessly.At this moment, a lieutenant came in hurriedly, saluted and said, "I report to Duke Yan, we have now found out who is leading the army."

Fu Wu asked nervously, "Who is it?"

The deputy general replied: "Left General Mao Song."

After hearing this, Fu Wu burst out laughing and said, "Fu Jian is too underestimating the enemy!" Then he asked the lieutenant general, "How far are they from here?"

The deputy general replied: "Thirty miles away, and camps have been set up, it seems that they have no intention of attacking Anding."

Fu Wu said dissatisfiedly: "This is the method of both offense and defense."

When the deputy general heard this, he hurriedly saluted and said, "If so, stability will be safe for the time being."

But Fu Wu shook his head and said, "Your lips are dead and your teeth are cold. If the other three princes are destroyed, how can Fu Jian let me go?"

The lieutenant immediately said flatteringly: "Duke Yan is wise."

Fu Wu continued, "I want Fu Jian to know who can be the ruler of Qin!"

At the same time, the lieutenant beside Mao Song saluted and said, "General, do you want to add more guards tonight?"

The self-righteous Mao Song curled his lips and said, "How dare you do the opposite to the small land of the four princes? Now that Qin's elite are coming out, it is expected that you will wait until you close the city and burn incense to pray for blessings."

At the time of the child, everything was asleep.Mao Song and his officers and men misunderstood that Fu Wu would not take the initiative to attack, so except for a few guards, the others fell asleep peacefully.

Sudden.Countless black shadows flashed under the bright moonlight.They came to Mao Song's camp quietly and launched an attack.Because Qin Jun was unprepared first, he gained the upper hand.

Mao Song, who was sleeping soundly, was suddenly awakened by the shouts of fighting outside. When he opened his eyes, he saw the flames outside the tent screaming for killing, so he ran out of the tent barefoot without wearing armor.At this time, the defeat of the Qin army was certain, so Mao Song wanted to go back to the tent, took the money and fled.But he was stopped by the energetic Fu Wu urging his horse.

Mao Song, who had no way out, only wanted to save his own life, so he knelt down on his knees and begged bitterly: "Duke Yan, please forgive me, the villain is willing to serve Duke Yan, and the horse will follow."

Fu Wu, who was sitting on the horse, smiled slightly, jumped off the horse, and came to Mao Song.Mao Song grabbed Fu Wu's life-saving straw and immediately leaned over and hugged Fu Wu's left foot, looking up at Fu Wu with tears streaming down his face.But Fu Wu said contemptuously: "Kiss my father's feet, and I will spare my life."

Everyone around stopped fighting and stared at Mao Song intently.Mao Song kissed Fu Wu's left foot without hesitation, and when he was about to kiss his right foot, Fu Wu cut off his head with a knife.Everyone looked at Fu Wu in surprise.

But Fu Wu said loudly: "If you are so cowardly, what's the use of keeping it?"

Seeing that the main general was dead, Qin Jun had no intention of fighting at all, and fled around.

Fu Wu leaned over and picked up Mao Song's head and shouted, "The next one is Fu Jian, the usurper of power and throne!"

The enthusiastic generals all raised their arms and shouted: "Kill Fu Jian! Kill Fu Jian!"

In Shanggu, Mr. Zhao Fu Shuang was drinking with his capable subordinate Gou Xing.

Fu Shuang said: "In two hours, the later general Yang Shicheng will lead his troops here. I wonder if the general has a way to deal with it?"

Gou Xing said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao is relieved, a mere Yang Shicheng, and taking his head is like picking something out of a bag."

Upon hearing this, Fu Shuang said happily, "It's so good, I can rest easy."

Gou Xing toasted with both hands and said: "Mr. Zhao, please wait a moment, and I will bring the head of the child to cheer you up!"

Fu Shuang said with satisfaction: "I am here waiting for the general's good news." After speaking, the two drank the wine in the cup together, and then Gou Xing bowed and left.

Although the later general Yang Shicheng led his troops all the way and was exhausted, he did not dare to neglect at all and was always ready to face the battle.Just as they were marching, they suddenly saw dust flying in the distance.Yang Shicheng immediately understood that the enemy had arrived, so he ordered: "All generals obey the order, whoever takes the head of the enemy will be rewarded!"

The soldiers shouted in unison: "Obey!"

After a while, Gou Xing led his troops to Yang Shicheng, and said disdainfully: "So you are Yang Shicheng. Famous is not as good as meeting, that's all!"

Yang Shicheng saw that the leader and general on the opposite side was talking nonsense, so he pointed at Gou Xing angrily and asked, "Who is here? How dare you be so rampant!"

Gou Xing rolled his eyes and said, "Your child is not worthy!" After he urged his horse, he fought with Yang Shicheng.

But within ten rounds, Yang Shicheng had an absolute advantage.Therefore, Yang Shicheng said to himself: "It's an idiot, but it's so arrogant. It seems that there are no talents in Shangyu City. Breaking through this city and beheading Fu Shuang is just around the corner."

After another five rounds, Yang Shicheng suddenly made a move to return the carbine, so Gou Xing dodged to the left.Perhaps because of too much force, he fell off his horse.Yang Shicheng took the opportunity to urge his horse to come to Gou Xing, just when he was about to make a move.But who knows, Gou Xing suddenly got up and knelt on the ground and begged: "General, spare your life! General, spare your life!" Then he turned around and said to the soldiers he was leading: "Put down your weapons!" Everyone put their weapons on the ground one after another.

Seeing this, Yang Shicheng said to himself, "The Heavenly King is merciful and cannot bear to kill all living beings. If they are all executed, the Heavenly King will be furious." So he nodded and said, "May you sincerely repent."

Gou Xing repeatedly nodded in agreement.Then Yang Shicheng said to Qin Jun: "Pick up your weapons."

Nearly [-] soldiers came over unsuspecting and bent down to pick up the weapons on the ground.But suddenly Gou Xing's soldiers drew short knives from their sleeves, and took advantage of the situation to chop off the Qin army who was bowing his head.In the blink of an eye, none of the Qin soldiers survived.

When Yang Shicheng saw that something was wrong, he knew that he was in the middle of the game. He wanted to capture the thief first and captured the king first, and killed Gou Xing to control the situation.But Gou Xing got up suddenly, drew a sharp dagger from his sleeve and stabbed Yang Shicheng.Because the incident happened so fast, although Yang Shicheng wanted to hide, he moved a little slower, and the dagger just stabbed his left chest.Gou Xing took advantage of the situation and turned the dagger to the left, and cut it horizontally again.Immediately, blood was splashed everywhere, and Yang Shicheng died on the spot.

As soon as the main general died, the Qin army was in a state of chaos.Gou Xing raised his sword and shouted: "Kill!" For a while, the screams continued.

After half an hour, the battlefield gradually quieted down.Gou Xing walked up to Yang Shicheng's body, stepped on his head and said contemptuously: "I just told you that the child is not worthy!"

The gate of Shangyu city was opened wide, and Zhao Gong and Fu Shuang personally led people to greet the triumphant return of all the soldiers.When Gou Xing, who was sitting on the horse, saw Mr. Zhao and Fu Shuang, he immediately got off his horse and wanted to salute.But Fu Shuang hurriedly stopped him, and said with a happy smile: "The general is brave and intelligent, and no one can match him."

Gou Xing also saluted very happily and said, "Thank you Mr. Zhao for your compliment."

At this time, a guarded soldier got off his horse and came to Fu Shuang, saluted and said, "I report to Duke Zhao, Duke Yan has won a great victory."

Fu Shuang laughed and said, "God bless us, Fu Jian must perish!"

Gou Xing on the side said: "It's better to take advantage of the victory and pursue it, join forces with Duke Yan and attack, and then divide the world."

Fu Shuang knew that his own strength alone was far from enough to destroy Fu Jian, so he nodded unwillingly.
