Royal Road - Chapter 80
[Chapter 80]
“What did you say? The hall is unstable?!” Sima Yue asked sharply, his face ashen.
“Reporting to Sikong, yesterday Zhang Fang’s rebels were in chaos outside the Jianchun Gate, intending to break into the imperial city and loot Taicang, which led to the mutiny of the Su Wei army. The middle commander of the Northern Army was no longer able to control the Sixth Army. The king of Changsha was robbed…”
After listening to the report of his confidant, Sima Yue was shocked and angry.
Since Zhang Fangjun entered the city ten days ago, he has been raped and looted.
In Luoyang city, I don’t know how many ions are scattered and families are destroyed.
The original situation of lack of water and food did not ease at all, but turned into a hell on earth.
In the past two days, the impeachment memorials in the DPRK and China can almost fill the table with cases, and hundreds of officials are looking forward to the Zhongshu Province to restrain Zhang Fangbu.
But Sima Yue has no one to use, so what can he do?
He had to appease everyone, saying that the chaos in Chang’an, Zhang Fang’s army will withdraw troops to rescue the King of Hejian in a few days, and wait for the King of Chengdu to enter Luo, and he will be able to eliminate the disaster.
This was also a stumbling block for Sima Ying by Sima Yue. Unexpectedly, Zhang Fang couldn’t hold back and started to attack the imperial city before the other party left Yecheng.
How can the generals in the palace endure this?
Originally, the Kaicheng incident was that he and his younger brother colluded with General Zuowei to act secretly. There were many dissatisfaction among the Sixth Army, and Sima Yi’s old division was even more complaining. As a result, it was absolutely impossible to hold back!
“Brother, I’m afraid I can’t stay in Changsha!” Sima Teng said loudly.
“Shut up!” Sima Yue was upset and shouted in a low voice.
How could he not want this kind of thing?
But if he killed Sima Ai with his own hands, the soldiers in the city would never trust him again, so how could they encourage these people to rebel?
“If you keep breaking, you will suffer from chaos. Brother, now we are walking through fire and water. If Changsha was rescued by those people, neither side would be able to explain it!” Sima Teng said urgently.
How could this Sima Yue not know?
!
Not to mention the hidden dangers of letting the tiger return to the mountain, even Sima Ying couldn’t explain it.
If there is trouble, he will definitely not get any benefit!
This is simply the enemy on the back, and it is difficult to make a decision.
“Sikong.” A Huang Menlang next to him suddenly stepped forward and said in a low voice, “Since Zhang Fang has already attacked the imperial city, why don’t you tell him about it. I think that General Zhang will not miss the opportunity…”
Hearing this, Sima Yue’s eyes lit up, and he pondered: “But Jin Yongcheng is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Just knowing the news may not make it happen…”
Jin Yongcheng is a complete military town. It is composed of three small cities connected to the north and south. It is three feet high and ten feet wide, with its back on Beimang and overlooking the entire city of Luoyang.
The city is heavily guarded, and it has always been a secluded palace where the Sima clan was imprisoned.
Such an impregnable fortified city, a hundred thousand troops would be helpless, how could a mere group of rebels be able to capture it?
That Huang Menlang chuckled: “There should be someone in the hall who is willing to open the city for General Zhang.”
“Good!” After hesitating, Sima Yue ordered, “You lead someone to do it quickly, if it is successful, I will There
will be a great reward!”
After speaking, he turned his head again and said to Sima Teng: “Yuanmai, you have been away from Bingzhou for a long time, so why don’t you take this opportunity to return. When the time is right, we will send troops on the white path to cut off Yecheng’s back road. In the future In
that battle, you were the key!”
Sima Teng is only in his early twenties now, and it was when he was vying to win. Hearing this, he immediately got up and said: “Brother, don’t worry! Ma Zi should be like an arm and a finger. Emperor Wu’s lineage is already useless, if you want to help Chaogang, your brother must take action!”
He heard this very well, and Sima Yue smiled and said, “Yuanmai said very much. As long as there is chaos If someone dies, why worry about the uncertainty of the world…”
※ It was snowing outside the
window, and the heavy snow had been falling on and off for two days.
If it is a quiet night, in the silence of all sounds, one can hear the snow falling and rustling.
Warming a pot of light wine, holding a cauldron, sitting by the window and watching the snowy night, this used to be Jiang Da’s favorite.
But today, wrapped in winter clothes, he was sitting by the window, quietly listening to the screams of killing from the distant streets.
This is the Shaofu Medical Office, which is located in the imperial city, outside the palace city wall, and the 30,000-year-old guards are stationed at the city gate.
Unless the country is broken, it is impossible to hear the sound of swordsmen.
But the sound had been ringing all night.
All night.
From sunset to quiet night, it seems that countless soldiers and horses poured into the inner city.
The sound of horses’ hooves, the sound of swordsmen, and screams were endless.
Those colleagues who were looking forward to Kaesong every day became silent.
Even the door of the Shaofu was tightly closed.
But a door, can stop the chaos?
Jiang Da did not know.
A few days ago, he had thought about going to beg Dongying Gong.
However, when he arrived, he knew that Duke Dongying had left Luoyang while the city gate was wide open.
There are also countless other princes, nobles and relatives, and every family took private soldiers to protect their families and left this dead city.
Of course they can go.
No matter how rampant the group of rebels were, they were still King Hejian’s troops.
He wouldn’t offend those wealthy clansmen, as long as he opened one eye and closed one eye, he would be able to let this group of noble children escape from the sea of fire.
But what about the rest?
Li Shu in Luoyang City, where are the officials?
Is their life not life?
Unfortunately, the King of Changsha was defeated.
He was defeated by the guards in the palace.
Lost to those despicable villains.
If he is still there, can he stick to the city and let the imperial capital avoid such slaughter?
With dry eyes open, Jiang Da listened to the screams of killing outside the window until dawn.
The next day, the fighting stopped.
On the third day, a piece of news spread to everyone’s ears.
Jin Yongcheng was broken by Zhang Fang as a soldier, and the king of Changsha was burned to death by this thief!
When he heard the news, Jiang Da only felt that his heart was cold.
What is the difference between Sima Ying or not?
The next day, however, he knew the difference.
After Zhi killed the King of Changsha, Zhang Fang led his troops to the palace city and captured the women in the palace.
Every day there was a terrible howl coming from outside the wall.
How many people they took captive, no one dares to imagine!
How will these palace ladies be treated?
Even more unthinkable.
After three days of trouble, the chaos gradually subsided.
But still no one dared to go out to see how the city looked like.
But even if there were no thieves, he would not be able to survive.
The lack of food, water, and the lingering cold, almost drained his strength.
As long as there are many days, there is no need to mess up the troops.
Just when Jiang Da was desperate, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of him.
“Doctor Jiang! It’s fortunate that you are still in the young mansion!” The soldier in the lead handed over a water bag and whispered, “I am the soldier of the Liang mansion, and I am here to take you back to the mansion on the order of the master!
” !” Jiang Da struggled to get up, “You are… I remember you… Zixi, Zixi he…” Before he could finish
speaking, tears were already shed.
Who would have guessed that in such a desperate situation, it would be that person who would send someone to help.
The soldier’s eyes were also red: “In the battle of Liangfu, you cured my leg. Doctor Jiang, don’t cry, drink some water quickly. Let’s leave now! By the way, the master also said, Dr. Jiang can leave a letter saying that his grandfather passed away and resigned and returned to his hometown. In this way, he will not be blamed by the court…”
“What?! Grandfather has gone?!” Jiang Da grabbed the man’s arm when he heard it. “When is the matter!”
“The matter of October.” The soldier hesitated for a while, “But Imperial Physician Jiang left a medical book, and the master ordered someone to print it.”
Jiang Da couldn’t understand what the print was.
But at this moment, all the anger and all the sorrow has turned into a deep hatred.
Without Sima Teng, without Sima Ying, without these powerful Sima clan, how could he and his grandfather end up like this?
!
Pushing the soldier away, he got up and walked to the desk, quickly wrote a resignation sheet, turned his head and said, “How do I get there?”
Seeing Jiang Da finally cheering up, the soldier couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief: “I’m still Someone is responding outside the wall, as long as you leave the imperial city, you can leave Luoyang!”
Without any hesitation, Jiang Da said, “Let’s go!” The
night was dark, and an unremarkable team climbed the high wall, crossed the city gate, and left This fragmented city of the Son of Heaven.
※
“There is news from Wang Zhongzheng that Sima Teng has returned to Jinyang!” Liang Feng dropped the letter in his hand and sighed.
It seemed that the Luoyang incident had no effect on Sima Teng, and might even have some benefits.
Otherwise, this kid wouldn’t be so careless and would go back to Bingzhou now.
But that’s fine too.
Without this obtrusive thing, no one would care about Jiang Da’s escape.
When I turned around and waited for the people to get home, I shoved it into the mansion and said that if I treated myself, no one could fault it.
After thinking for a while, Liang Feng turned his head and asked, “How are the people sent to Luoyang this time, reliable?”
Yi Yan immediately said, “They are all experts in siege and camp, and a few have been favored by Dr. Jiang. The leader of the team. It’s Zhang He, you can’t go wrong.”
Liang Feng has always been interested in cultivating special forces, so the most elite ones in the brave camp have indeed practiced some things that later generations of special forces will teach.
An ordinary wall of several feet could not stop it at all.
Zhang He is a backup battalion commander who has been promoted from the battalion. He has a good understanding of tactics and is smart. Liang Feng has also met him in person and is quite satisfied with him.
Nodding slightly, Liang Feng said, “Remember to inform Wu Ling that Jiang Da was rescued from the city with great difficulty, and there is no room for loss at the pass.”
“This subordinate understands,” Yi Yan replied.
“By the way, you should also pick some smart soldiers from the battalion as soon as possible, and go back and learn some first aid knowledge with Dr. Jiang. These people must be placed in every combat unit, so call them nurses. When they are on the battlefield, they will It can save a lot of lives.” Liang Feng said quite solemnly.
In the last battle, if the seriously injured soldiers could be treated on the battlefield, the death rate would probably drop a few points.
It’s a pity that there are no qualified hygienists in the team. This time Jiang Da is back, and he can focus on cultivating talents in this area.
Yi Yan has already understood the role of those nurses in the ward. If there are a group of such people on the battlefield, they will naturally be of great use.
“And the officers selected this time will have to learn arithmetic and basic writing in the future. At least they must be able to understand the instructions and calculate the amount of food and grain needed in the team. If they don’t have these basic knowledge, I am afraid that To delay things.” Liang Feng thought for a while and said again.
“My lord, they are all reckless. If you learn this, you might delay your time.” Yi Yan frowned.
“Have you delayed learning these things?” Liang Feng shook his head with a smile, “If you are not motivated, you are not worthy of being a good general. It is only necessary to incorporate these into the officer promotion system. , I don’t want to see a good soldier that I have worked so hard for be ruined by an idiot.” In
the past six months, Yi Yan has not stopped studying for a day, and now he has read some letters.
For the military book that the lord read, the understanding is also a step deeper.
Of course he understood the importance of knowledge.
But asking every officer to do this always feels a little unrealistic.
But this is the master’s order, he can go down and ask, what if someone wants to learn?
Anyway, the one who taught them would definitely not be the lord.
Just as she was about to nod her head, Yi Yan suddenly froze, her eyes like knives, flying at the woman who walked into the door.
After several battles, killing a lot of people, Yi Yan’s eyes were filled with murderous aura, but the woman, as if she didn’t see it, walked to the desk with a stern face: “Lang Jun, the craftsmen and helpers in each workshop are all registered, There are also the rewards and festival gifts that the craftsmen received last year, and I also write down them one by one.”
Liang Feng took the booklet, flipped it over at random, and nodded: “You did a good job. Sifang’s rules, you Think carefully. Now that there are many people in the mansion, the rules must be changed accordingly, and there must be no mistakes.”
“The servant knows.” The woman nodded slightly, her face still expressionless.
In fact, her appearance is not bad, and her stature is also tall, but she is unsmiling, and her dress is simple and unpretentious. She looks like a piece of wood, which is a bit dazzling.
However, Liang Feng was quite satisfied with this new secretary.
This time Chaoyu chose two people from the ward. One was tall and expressionless, and the other was petite and thin with scars on his face.
One of them was cold and the other was bored, but both math and calligraphy were quite good.
The tall one has extremely meticulous logical thinking, and is also quite skilled in personnel management.
The shorter one is erudite and memorized. Whether it’s numbers or Liang Feng’s instructions, he can never forget them.
What is even more rare is that the two have no plans to find their past, so Liang Feng gave them names, one named Cang Lan and the other named Cai Wei, and stayed in the study.
However, this change caused a lot of shock to those close to him.
Lvzhu didn’t say anything, Yiyan seemed to have a heart too, and never gave these two a good look.
It’s also fortunate that the two women have climbed out of hell. If they are soft and weak, I am afraid that Yi Yan’s eyes will scare people away.
After two more orders, Liang Feng let Cang Lan go down, turned his head to look at Yi Yan who had just withdrawn his gaze: “Why, you don’t seem to like these two newcomers very much.”
Yi Yan was silent for a moment before saying: “They are unknown. You do
n’t deserve to stay with the lord!”
“All kinds of yesterday are like dying yesterday. They are all poor people, and they have their own reasons.” Liang Feng sighed, “Yiyan, help me to go outside.”
After a moment of hesitation, Yiyan did not Step forward and help the man up.
Compared with half a year ago, his arms have more flesh, and they are no longer so light as if a gust of wind can blow them away, but he is still thin and pale, and as he gets closer, he can still smell lingering. Medicinal flavor.
Now that he can walk freely, Liang Feng will not put all his weight on this human-shaped crutch.
Slowly walking out of the room, he walked towards his favorite side courtyard.
Unlike other courtyards where various flowers and trees are planted, there are rockery pools and winding paths lead to seclusion.
There is only one tall tower in the courtyard, which is simple, but makes people feel very open.
Step by step up the steps, Liang Feng stood in front of the wooden fence on the third floor.
The snow that had been snowing for a few days before was covered with a thick layer of snow.
These winter snows can keep the soil moist, kill potential pests in the soil, and prevent the winter wheat from being frozen by the cold wind.
A veritable harbinger of a good year.
With snow, the farmers began to sleep in winter, but Zhuangzi did not calm down.
From a distance, there are still rows of figures swaying in the barracks.
After the end of the annual leave, the troupe began to practice again. The original auxiliary soldiers should be turned into regular soldiers, and the newly recruited refugees should also receive auxiliary training.
Even if the weather is cold, these can’t stop.
Those missing troops will take more time to fill.
Looking at those diligently training people in the distance.
Liang Feng suddenly asked, “Yiyan, what are you worrying about these days?”
The wound on his hand had already scabbed over, but in Yiyan’s heart, there was obviously something pressing in his heart.
It is impossible for Liang Feng to just sit down and be troubled by his most important subordinates. Of course, he has to ask.
Like a wild deer hit by the light, Yi Yan’s figure froze immediately.
He didn’t expect that the Lord would ask so directly, and he couldn’t think of how to answer it by himself.
After a long while, he whispered: “The lord needs talents, and there will be more useful people in the Liang residence in the future. I don’t know if I can stand by the lord
‘s side.” This is sincere.
Whether it was sending troops to rescue Jiang Da, or choosing children to learn to count, or the two strange women in the study.
What the lord needs has never been more than just the trilogy, he also needs more useful people.
And he is only one of these people.
He was afraid that those eyes would see that something was wrong with him, but he was equally afraid that the eyes of that person no longer wanted to fall on him as before.
This is simply a difficult problem that cannot be chosen, making Yiyan sleepless.
Liang Feng raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn’t expect that this was what Yi Yan was worried about.
A smile appeared on his lips, and Liang Feng shook his head gently: “You are different from them.”
Yi Yan’s throat trembled: “If there is a general who is the same as his subordinates…”
“You and anyone else, They are all different.” Liang Feng interrupted him, “Yiyan, you were taught by me, no one can take your place.”
This is Liang Feng’s sincere words.
He came into this world as an outrageous accident.
When he was about to give up his will to survive, he met this person in front of him.
Yiyan is different from those close to him.
He is a Capricorn, he doesn’t know what ordinary people should know, and he doesn’t know the original owner of this body.
In front of Yiyan, he can indulge himself and show something that belongs to his true self.
Whether it’s training the chorus or teaching the art of war, in fact, these are the residual heat left over from the previous life, and they are memories that can’t be let go.
If there is no Yiyan, he may have to keep these things in his heart, hoping to find a credible person before forgetting the light.
Or slowly adapt to the world and choose to integrate into the famous celebrities.
Fortunately, he met this person ahead of time.
It’s like giving wings to a lingering, ill-behaved person.
Will anyone pass up this rare opportunity to spy on the blue sky?
Yiyan is of course important to him.
The pair of hard bows capable of pulling three stones made their steady hands tremble.
Yiyan has heard the lord’s praises, countless praises.
However, he has never been so moved!
In the bottom of my heart, it seems that something has opened, with sourness, pain, uncontrollable joy, and indescribable fear.
Yi Yan gritted his teeth and squeezed out his voice: “If the lord wants me, I will stay by the lord’s side forever.”
The hands that were supporting him were trembling.
Liang Feng didn’t break it, just smiled slightly.
“It’s a word.”
