- Chapter 27 Fan Gu is full of good people
The atmosphere in the room was a little stiff, perhaps because the stove was moved out. Li Xiaozong, who was kneeling on the ground, looked a little pale. He didn't know whether he was cold or frightened.
Li Yuanshan glanced at him, and then frowned slightly: "Although you are not a direct child of the Li family in Longyou, I have felt that you will be promising in the future since you were a child. Maybe you don't remember that when you were seven years old ¡On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, your father and my second brother Li Yuanmou built an enclosure at the hunting ground, and enclosed thirty to fifty hungry wolves and two equally hungry tigers, saying they wanted to have some fun for the people in the clan. , even the old man was invited."
"That day, a pack of wolves and hungry tigers were fighting, and it looked really interesting. The old man was tired after standing for a long time, so your father ordered all the animals in the circle to be shot to death. Shoot random arrows, and all the wolves and tigers died. The old man was very special. When we wanted to go down and take a look, your father and I helped the old man into the enclosure. You, who was only seven years old, followed suit with a short knife in your hand. Who knew that when we walked to a hungry tiger, the beast was not there yet. Dead."
"Your father and I drew our swords at the same time, but you took a step forward and said loudly that the safety of my grandfather was the most important. It was important that my father and third uncle protected my grandfather. You stepped forward and stabbed the hungry tiger to death."
"At that time, your father scolded you for being unruly. I didn't say anything. Even the old man turned around and left without saying anything to you. But you don't know the old man felt sorry for you for a long time afterwards. He said it was a pity for you. This child's courage and wisdom should be cultivated vigorously if you are not a commoner."
Li Yuanshan paused and continued: "When you were seven years old, you had the courage to kill tigers. Since that day, I have been paying attention to you. You were able to enter the martial arts academy after I told your father. Your father's The original intention was to choose one of his direct children to take the exam. I persuaded him for a long time before he agreed. "
Li Xiaozong¡¯s expression changed, and he changed the military salute of kneeling on one knee to kneeling on both knees.
"Thank you, General."
Li Yuanshan sat down on the chair, shook his head and said, "You should call me Third Uncle."
Li Xiaozong bowed his head and said: "Wearing military uniform, I dare not address myself as my third uncle."
Li Yuanshan's eyes flashed with admiration, and he hummed and said: "It's good that you can still remember the military discipline at this time But your courage was already amazing when you were a child. Why are you so timid in doing things now? I gave it away. In a big house in Jiangdu, Wu Peisheng agreed to help you suppress the corruption incident. The death of a few minions and the death of a few common people is nothing more than a trivial matter for your future. Why can¡¯t you do it?¡±
Without waiting for Li Xiaozong to explain, Li Yuanshan continued: "Even if you have hard reasons and don't do it, what you did about Wu Peisheng's death makes me even more angry! Wu Peisheng is a popular person in front of His Majesty the Emperor and the eunuch of the imperial study room. His death will definitely shock the court and shock His Majesty, butif he dies, he will die, and there is no need to worry too muchAs long as things are done cleanly and beautifully, is it possible that His Majesty will kill another promising person because of a dead person. General?"
"But you didn't do this well, you have no courage!"
Li Xiaozong lowered his head and simply refused to explain.
"I have watched you grow up, and I also think you will have a lot of potential. Just because I have always felt that you are a talent, I inevitably take care of you too much."
Li Yuanshan stood up and patted Li Xiaozong on the shoulder: "You think a lot, that's right. But since you have to think about it, you can't think too narrowly You plan to use the infiltration of the Meng Yuan cavalry as an excuse to block the future imperial capital. The investigating officers who came here, this is simply impossible. No matter how much money is given, no one can guarantee that they will regret it in the future. Those people in the imperial capital are all so angry to the core. "
¡°I¡¯ve said so much, do you understand what to do?¡±
he asks.
Li Xiaozong nodded, then shook his head: "General, the reason why I can't bear it is not because of women's kindness, but because I want to leave some helpers for the future. The border troops in Fan Gucheng argue once every six years, these people are Veterans of many battles, after a few years, I plan to find a way to transfer them back to my staff."
"Veterans are treasures, but they are not a future."
Li Yuanshan sighed and said, "Since you can't bear this matter, don't interfere."
He turned and walked toward the door. When he reached the door, he paused: "If you don't want to kill someone, I won't force you But you need to write a new memorial to the court. The officials sent by the court to investigate the case will need two at the earliest. The month is here, two months is enough to do a lot of things, and I don¡¯t intend to make you wait for two months.¡±
"On the second day of February in the eleventh year of Tianyou's reign in the Sui Dynasty, because of the smuggling of horses by the Northern Liao people, the Mongolian and Yuan Empire launched a brazen offensive against Fan Gu. A force of 10,000 people from the Mandu Banner crossed the Wolf Ru??Mail, attack Fan Gu. Fan Gu Ya general Li Xiaozong led his army to fight. They fought bloody battles for several days and killed thousands of enemies It happened that the imperial envoy Wu Peisheng arrived at Fan Gu and entered the city to assist in the defense. Officials from the Beijing Military Department and Dali Temple fought side by side with the border troops and held on to the city However, Outnumbered, they held on for more than ten days. Most of the defenders in the city were killed. Imperial envoy Wu Peisheng and thirty-six of his accompanying officials were killed. General Li Xiaozong was seriously wounded in sixty-seven places and still refused to retreat. The city was about to be broken. Li Yuanshan, the general of the Right Xiaowei, arrived with his army and defeated the enemy outside Fangu City, killing 6,000 enemies"
After Li Yuanshan said these words in a cold voice, he turned back to Li Xiaozong and said, "I have withheld the apology note you sent to the court a few days ago. The above mentioned are my memorial to His Majesty."
Li Yuanshan¡¯s expression was stiff, and he smiled self-deprecatingly and said, ¡°Fortunately, most of them died in the battle instead of all of them.¡±
Li Yuanshan smiled and said: "That's allthe remaining half written in the memorial, I will allocate it to you from You Xiaowei. The Ministry of War has a list of Fan Gu's border troops registered, but the name is just a code name. Anyone can be called Zhang San or Li Si.¡±
"As for that Fang Jie I will send someone to get rid of him."
After saying this, Li Yuanshan walked away.

On the second day of February in the eleventh year of Tianyou's reign in the Sui Dynasty, 775 people from Fan Gu's border army received military orders to assemble at the school ground. After waiting for a long time, General Li Xiaozong did not come. After standing on the school grounds for a full three hours, everyone was still exhausted and exhausted. In the evening, another military order was suddenly received. Li Yuanshan, the right general of Xiaowei, dispatched Fan Gu's garrison thirty miles out of the city. There was an emergency military situation.
The soldiers, who had not eaten or drank for a day, dragged their exhausted bodies out of the city and rushed to the Eagle Pavilion, thirty miles east of the city. What awaited them were 500 heavy armored cavalry and 3,000 elite infantry.
Seven hundred and seventy-five people died.
Late at night, Youxiaowei soldiers who had changed into border army uniforms entered Fangu. The next day, the people of Fangu received news that there were 300 cavalrymen from the Mongolian and Yuan Empire. Li Xiaozong led his army to meet the enemy. Unexpectedly, he was ambushed. The enemy cavalry was not less than 300, but no less than thousands. The frontier troops fought hard and most of them died.
The people were shocked and excited.
Li Xiaozong, who was seriously injured, summoned the people of the city to recruit soldiers. Unexpectedly, at this moment, thousands of soldiers from the Mongolian and Yuan Empire, with the help of spies, entered Fangu City and slaughtered all the people. There were more than 2,000 people in the city, and no one was spared.
Li Xiaozong only came to his senses that day. It turned out that Li Yuanshan said that there was some trouble in the massacre of the city. It was not a trouble with killing people, but a trouble with how to explain to the court.
Just the night before the massacre of the city, the elite soldiers of Youxiao Guard pretended to be Fan Gu's border troops and entered the city. Du Hongxian, the proprietress of Yunji Dog Meat Shop, released a homing pigeon at the top of the city, then carried a small luggage and left the city. She didn't know that not long after she left, people all over the city became headless ghosts.

The carriage swayed forward slowly. Although the wind was still cold, it was interesting to wrap up tightly and look for the warmth of the sun in the wind, even in boredom. The big dog drove the carriage slowly and fell far behind Hong Xiuzhao's seven carriages. The people in front ignored them, and they didn't bother to get close to the girls.
Although Big Dog likes to draw naked girls on the snow, he really has no desire for women. At least in the past fifteen years, Fang Jie has not seen him find a woman, so Fang Jie's definition of Big Dog is that this person is either a miser who loves money more than anything else, or he has a physical problem.
And Mu Xiaoyao was even more unwilling to deal with those women from Hongxiuzhao. There was not much to say between beautiful women. So she would rather lie in the carriage and sleep every day than compete with those Yingying Yanyan sisters and sisters. The reason why Fang Jie would rather sit outside wrapped in a big cloak and chat with the big dog than get into the carriage is because Mu Xiaoyao is really a woman who does not regard herself as a woman.
Her red dress was already thin, and she didn¡¯t look like a lady when sleeping. After tossing and turning, a pair of beautiful legs as white as gelatin were exposed. For a normal man like Fang Jie to sit in the carriage and look at his beautiful body but not to eat, he might as well be chatting with the big dog outside.
"Big Dog, do you think that if I have become a high-ranking official in the Sui Dynasty when I return to Fangu, how will the people of Fangu City welcome me?"
The big dog smiled and said, "It's nothing more than beating gongs and drums and blasting firecrackers."
Fang Jie shook his head and did not continue speaking. He didn't know why his face looked a little ugly.
"What's wrong?"
The big dog asked.
¡°I just fell asleep leaning on the carriage and had a dream.¡±
"What did you dream about?"
¡°I dreamed that when I returned to Fangu many years later, all the folks in the city were gathered at the city gate.??Pick me up. I was so happy when I saw them that I wished everyone could hold them and give them a kiss. But when I ran forward with a smile, I suddenly realized that something was wrong Why is it that after so many years, Aunt He is still the same, as unchanged as a blooming morning glory? Why is Xiao Jiaojiao still only as high as my knees after all these years? Still speaking in a milky voice? Why is it that after so many years, Qu Feng is still just a border military lieutenant and has not been promoted? I looked at them, growing more and more frightened, and finally frightened myself awake. "
"It was because of you that I left Fan Gu. They must have not changed in this dream."
Big Dog thought for a moment and said, "You have what they look like now in your mind, and naturally they will look the same as they do now in your dreams."
"No¡¡"
Fang Jie slowly wiped the sweat from his forehead: "They were all wearing white clothes, and their faces were whiter than their clothes I went to hug them, but I couldn't hug any of them None of their feet touched the ground. , but floating. It took me a long time to figure out that the people I saw in my dreamwere all dead."
The big dog was startled. He got into the carriage and took out Mu Xiaoyao's wine bottle and handed it to Fang Jie: "It's just a ridiculous dream. If you are really worried, we can go back and have a look now."
Fang Jie took a sip of wine and felt that his back was still very cold: "No needhaven't everyone said that dreams and reality are opposite, whoever dies in the dream will live longer. I dreamed about Fan Gu If all the villagers are dead, won¡¯t everyone live a long life?¡±
"Um!"
The big dog nodded and said with a smile: "In the past fifteen years, I have dreamed that we died many times, but we are still alive and well. And there is an old saying, good people will not pay for their lives, and disasters will last for thousands of years. ¡I¡¯m not a good person, not Mu Xiaoyao, and neither are you.¡±
Fang Jie smiled, and the depression in his heart dissipated a bit: "Everyone in Fangu Cityare all good people, right?" - Didn't finish reading?
