The sound of the Songzhou campaign was sudden.
It's said that the tribe is a border nomad, with a total of 80000 troops. Suddenly, they appear on the Songzhou border. No one knows how and when they came. They are tall and brave with weapons.
The false senior officials of Songzhou who have no leader are really shocked by these people.
After an urgent meeting and discussion, they found that the total number of rebels in Songzhou is only ten thousand. If the other side wants to break through the city gate, not only the people in Songzhou will suffer, but also the rebels will follow suit.
After a brief hour in parliament, a Han puppet official said: "we need Songzhou military aid."
It's said that 80000 people of that clan have come to the city. They have to resist, but no one is in their hands now. What's the use of resistance?
Don't forget that Songzhou's local garrison is still on the outskirts of the city. Now, if these tens of thousands of troops can be waved, tens of thousands of them can listen to that soldier, but they can't fight.
But as soon as the proposal was issued, another barbarian official refused: "do you know how hard it is for us to trap the garrison in the suburbs? They are a tiger, locked in a cage by us. You are going to release them. How do you know that we are not the first one they eat? "
The Han puppet official retorted: "Songzhou city is full of people. If you listen to that people attacking the city, you will not be kind to the people in the Central Plains. Songzhou army is the imperial army. Their training and belief are to protect their families and defend their country. So if you let them out, they will inquire about that soldier first."
"Even if they really inquired about the soldier, what about us after the defeat?" "Don't forget that we were able to break through Songzhou easily before because of the raid, because we trapped the soldiers and horses in the outskirts of the city, separated the city from the outside, so that their reinforcements could not arrive. Now let them go into the city, listen to the first death of the tribe, and we will die later."
"It doesn't have to be!" "We are called rebels in name, but I am loyal to the Han people. Even if the uprising is successful, the empress won't ascend the throne. She will assist another puppet emperor to take charge behind the scenes. So as long as Qingyun country is Rong or Han nationality, our soldiers will still be loyal to the country. In the end, what the empress and the seven kings are doing is the struggle for imperial power In addition, as long as the country does not fall and the people do not die, nothing will change. "
"So you insist on releasing the Songzhou army?" Asked the barbarian officials.
"This is the only way," the Han official nodded
When the barbarian officials were silent, they turned their eyes to another eunuch at the meeting, the eunuch sent by the queen from the palace.
"What do you think
The old eunuch seemed to be old and prudent, but in fact, he was also afraid. He looked at the barbarians and the Han nationality, and after a moment of silence, he said, "in a word, Songzhou city can't be broken, and the good things of my mother can't be defeated by us."
That's to say, they agreed to release the Songzhou army. Pretty officials were not happy, but they didn't say anything at last. They are in a delicate situation now. General hul at the front foot sent all the Songzhou rebels away, while general hul at the back foot listened to the people coming. General hul didn't just listen to the people. They are somewhat embarrassed now.
See other people all have no opinion, that Han official active way: "I am Han, personally talk with Songzhou army, I believe they will understand."
"Then try it." The old eunuch said in a sharp voice, "Songzhou must not be lost. If you lose it, you, me, US and our heads must follow."
This threat made the atmosphere in the hall silent for a short time. Everyone looked at each other for a moment. The Han official got up first and took people to the city gate.
When they arrived at the garrison camp, they saw that in the playground, the soldiers were still training, and the one who was standing at the head was in uniform. He was forty years old and strong.
When hanguan passed by, everyone in the playground looked at him. Thousands of eyes were stared at him, and his back was sweating.
The commander of Songzhou garrison is Li, whose name is Li Hou. He is nearly six feet tall and very tall.
Han officials first saluted Li Hou and talked with him about the people outside the city.
Li was not surprised when he heard about it. His response was flat: "so what?"
Han officer wiped away his sweat and said: "there is no exception to foreign troubles and uncertainty of the people's hearts. Marshal Li has been fighting all his life. I think he is also a generation of people for the country. At the moment, Songzhou is in danger. It's just when we join hands to fight against the enemy. We can only wait for the chaos of Songzhou to pass. Marshal Li has made great contributions."
Li afraid sneers: "I have no military power."
The Han official immediately ordered the bodyguard behind him to deliver a token.
Li afraid looked at the familiar token, and his face was calm: "after the Queen's order, have we become rebel soldiers?"
Han officials said: "the emperor is seriously ill and overstaffed. The queen has great talent in governing the world, which is 100 times more than that of the seven kings. After all, the seven kings have to be led by a competent person. In their early years, there were rumors of forming a party for personal gain, embezzling taxes and collecting people's fat and ointment. How can the people live a good life if there is no wind and no waves? The seven kings themselves are not qualified. When the world is handed over to such people? ”
"when it is handed over to the empress's mother-in-law, people will have a good life?" Li is afraid to ask.The Han official ignored Li's disrespectful address to the queen and said in a deep voice, "it's not enough to say that marshal Li is still safe after many months of Songzhou's destruction. Isn't that enough to show the sincerity of his mother? The empress doesn't distinguish her from her enemies. She only looks at talents. Marshal Li is the first one in her talent list. If she can succeed, according to her appreciation for you, it's not difficult for Marshal Li to win the title of marquis. "
This is a set of threats and inducements.
When Li was afraid of reading the flash, he laughed: "OK, but you can remember today. Standing in the Queen's line, I have to see the benefits of Minghuang."
"It's natural." Han official said.
When Li feared that someone would take the Han officer down to rest, and he wanted to order the soldiers, an assistant general came up and asked mysteriously, "is it the same?"
"It's all his mother." Li afraid scratched his hair and said rudely, "first of all, for the country and the people, then for the king, tut, how come Liu Wei's brain is so good after all these years? He can guess what others say. I don't think he should do it. It's so good to set up a stall for fortune telling. "
Deputy general chuckled and said: "Liu Zhuo was smart, and he used to listen to him. You always said that Fu was unproductive, and was suppressed everywhere by a small Zhuo. Later..."
"Hiss, stop it, I remember."
The deputy general continued: "later, Liu Zhu was used as a cathartic for you, so you didn't get off the bed for half a month. Since then, you dare not speak ill of him face to face."
"Said I remembered, you also bullshit what!" Li afraid angrily hit the back of his deputy's head, and said: "come on, the token is here. You go to write back to Liu Wei, and use our own pigeons in the barracks. His pigeons don't know where to buy them. They are cheap at first sight. They have gone to the lake. It's not for the soldiers to take a bath and see them. Such important information is gone."
