Quan Gaihong didn't sleep very well that night. The Tang army stopped at Sanchakou and had been unable to advance or retreat for more than ten days. This was a major worry for him. Although he comforted himself that if he persisted for a few more days, when the next cold wave came, the Tang army would freeze to death if they did not leave, but the actual situation was that the Tang people had transported a large amount of charcoal from Lushun, and it seemed that they were preparing to spend the winter at Sanchakou. If the cold winter cannot repel the Tang people, then when the spring comes and the flowers bloom, the Tang people will invade in large numbers, and it will be even harder for Beisha City to support it. This kind of worry makes Quan Gaihong sleep very lightly. Some noises outside can wake him up. Therefore, when the sound of killing broke out in Beisha City, he woke up immediately: "Is the Tang army attacking?" But no one responded outside. It was almost midnight in the middle of the night, and even if there were people on duty outside, they would not respond for a while. If you don¡¯t understand what¡¯s going on, how can you dare to give random answers? Quan Gaihong stood up with his clothes on, worried in his heart, but still barely calm on his face. He called a servant to put on his armor, and then he put on his armor. Finally, someone broke in. "It's bad, governor, it's bad, Luo Jiuhe has rebelled." The people who came in cried with tears. Quan Gaihong was shocked when he heard this. He reached out and took off the knife hanging on the wall: "I know Han He is unreliable, but why did this guy suddenly rebel? Could it be that Quan Li pushed him too hard and made him have to rebel? " Thinking of Quan Li, his heart moved: "Where is Quan Li, I will hand over the military power to him, please call him quickly? He came to quell the rebellion." "General Quan has been killed a long time ago. Governor, run away quickly. Luo Jiuhe has gathered the Han army and will come this way soon Governor, let's escape through the east gate quickly." North The gate was originally in the hands of Luo Jiuhe. Now that he has started an uprising, the north gate cannot be entered. The Tang Army is in the south and cannot enter. The only one who can enter is the east gate. When Quan Gaihong heard that Quanli was dead, he immediately understood that the situation was over and no one could control Luo Jiuhe anymore. An attendant beside him still felt lucky: "There are only eight or nine hundred Han soldiers in the city. In a hurry, Luo Jiuhe can gather at most five or six hundred, while the Goguryeo soldiers number thousands. As long as the governor ascends and shouts, he will definitely be able to bring order to the chaos " Luo Jiuhe How could Jiuhe not collude with the Tang army?" Quan Gaihong shouted. "Who are the people around him? If Luo Jiuhe dared to make a sudden move, he must have colluded with the Tang people. He didn't even think of this, and he allowed himself to climb high. A shout At this time, he was sending meat into the wolf's mouth. "Go, go quickly" He said sternly, not caring about everything at home. Thinking of Gao Yincheng's fate, he shuddered in his heart. He fell into the hands of the Tang Dynasty. How could his head be saved? But when he came out of the mansion with this small team of guards, he saw a crowd of sergeants in darkness. The leader had a knife in one hand and a spear in the other. The blades and spear tips were glowing with a dark red sheen, and it was unknown if they were stained with blood. Still reflecting the light of the torch, it was Luo Jiuhe who strode towards Quan Gaihong: "Where does the governor want to go? " Quan Gaihong never thought that Luo Jiuhe would move so fast and kill him in such a short time. But when he saw the soldiers following Luo Jiuhe, he suddenly understood and his face changed drastically: "The Tang army entered the city. "I want the governor to know that the Tang army entered the city from the north gate an hour ago, and then followed me into the military camp. Now, except for a few people who are ignorant of current affairs, the city has been calmed down." Luo Jiuhe said with squinted eyes. "Luo Jiuhe, you traitor, I treat you well, but you actually betray me?" "Quanli's cronies have been recruited, and the governor plans to dispose of the place after this battle is over." Luo Jiuhe stared at He said to him: "Three generations of my family have served your Quan clan. If it weren't for my grandfather, how could you, the Quan clan, become the lord of Beisha City? If it weren't for my father, how could you inherit the position of governor? If it weren't for me, how could you command Jili Prefecture?" How can people treat me well, just to kill me?" Quan Gaihong was speechless. Three generations of Luo Jiuhe's family have served for their family, and more than six people have died in the war. If you say I'm sorry, that's fine. He felt sorry for Luo Jiuhe first. "Come on, you traitor, just kill me to vent your anger, don't harm the people in the city" "If you care about the people in the city, you should open the city as soon as possible to welcome the king's army, but what are you saying hypocritically at this time?" Luo Jiuhe said: "As for yourself, just don't worry. I begged Ye Canjun and he said he would only send you back to Chang'an for resettlement." "Ye Canjun?" Quan Gaihong's eyes widened. When did he see Luo Jiuhe? Ye Chang? Could it be that Ye Chang has entered the city with the army? "Ye is here." He was surprised when he heard someone say, and then a young general came out from the troops behind Luo Jiuhe. Under the firelight, the young general looked heroic and his eyes were bright. Quan Gaihong looked at him and could hardly believe that such a young boy was Ye Chang. "Youhow are you doing?" Under Ye Chang's gaze, he was frightened and didn't know how to deal with it, so he showed timidity when he spoke. "Il's crime should have been punished in the canon and spread throughout the world.""You dare to imitate others," Ye Chang said sternly: "Your accomplice and minion Gao Yincheng is dead, how can you survive?" Quan Gaihong's knees softened and he almost fell down. He originally thought that he could remain calm in any situation. Ziruo, but never thought of being drunk by Ye Chang, almost broke his heart. "However, General Luo wants to intercede for you on the basis of old friendship. You are just a dog. In exchange for your life, General Luo will serve. Ye is taking advantage." Big bargain. "Ye Chang added: "Therefore, I will spare you the death penalty and send you to Chang'an to be sacrificed as a prisoner." This arrangement allowed Quan Gaihong to stand firm and not die. Although he would lose his power forever, he finally saved his life. "He It felt that Ye Chang really wanted to kill him. If it weren't for Luo Jiuhe, his life would be gone. When he looked at Luo Jiuhe again, his expression was a little complicated. Although he still hated him, he couldn't curse. "Tell your followers to put down their weapons. I don't want to cause any more harm." "Ye Chang shouted again. Quan Gaihong looked back. He only had a dozen or so followers, and all of them had earth-colored faces. Some people threw their weapons on the ground without even waiting for his instructions. He sighed: "Come on, Well, I will follow Ye Canjun's order I just hope that Ye Canjun will restrain the soldiers and not kill innocent people indiscriminately. The Goguryeo people in this city are not guilty, and the guilt is all on Quan. I also ask Ye Canjun not to embarrass them" "Since From now on, they are the people of the Tang Dynasty and are under the rule of Ye. How can I embarrass them? "Ye Chang burst out with a smile: "Tie them up and send them all back to his mansion Weapons and armor were all found in the mansion, but gold, silver, money and silk are not allowed to be taken without permission. Anyone who takes it without permission is not allowed to rape and humiliate the female family members who are engaged in military law. Those who rape and humiliate will be killed without mercy. " He went down with two orders in succession, and the armies responded and took action one after another. Bisha City is a small city, not large in area, and it didn't take long for it to settle down again. Although there were still many people who were uneasy and uncomfortable. Falling asleep, but for Ye Chang, there was nothing else to do except for the necessary troops patrolling the city, including the Lushun army entering the city from the south gate, all entered the military camp and began to rest. "Finally busy" I'm really tired. I haven't slept much since the day before yesterday. Ye Chang stretched his body, smiled and said to Luo Jiuhe: "General Luo, if you have a place to stay at home, I will go to your home to disturb you. I wonder if you welcome this uninvited guest." " Luo Jiuhe was stunned when he heard these words, and then said: "I'm afraid there will be changes tonight, so I want to stay in the camp "Then I will go to your camp to rest." Ye Chang could not refuse and said: "Please Luo General, lead the way." Luo Jiuhe knew in his heart that this was Ye Chang's way of appeasing the surrendering troops, but even so, he was still impressed by Ye Chang's courage and ability. The morale of the newly attached army was unstable, so Ye Chang dared to stay among them. This was not something he could do if he had absolute confidence in himself. After inviting Ye Chang into the camp, Luo Jiuhe still felt a little uneasy. If one or two unscrupulous people in the army sneaked in and assassinated Ye Chang, the city would probably turn into a mountain of blood and corpses the next day. The sea will never be as bloodless as it is tonight. Therefore, he quietly summoned his trusted officers and ordered in a low voice: "Ye Canjun will stay in my camp. Each of you will lead a team and rotate every hour to protect the tent where Ye Canjun is staying. If a mouse gets involved, Go in and come to see me." A trusted officer heard this order and laughed: "Congratulations, general." Another person asked curiously: "What's the happy news?" "The general has served the Quan family for three generations. Still suspicious and wary, Ye Canjun has only been here for one night, and he regards the general as his confidant. The general is useless in Quan's hands, but he will be of great use under Ye Canjun's account. This Ye Canjun can achieve such a high official at such a young age. Firstly, he is talented, and secondly, there are few people in the court who support him. With his trust, the general will be able to make great achievements." Hearing what he said, everyone agreed and congratulated Luo Jiuhe. Luo Jiuhe chuckled: "If I get great use, doesn't it mean that you will also get great use? Everyone is happy and happy together." The next day, Ye Chang lay down and didn't get up until he was almost dead, which was rare. During this period of time, he worked hard and thought about completely getting rid of the hidden danger in Bisha City, so he was very tired. Now that you're done, it's inevitable to relax. After waking up, I saw a red light outside. I put on my clothes and went out of the tent. I found a red sun hanging in the sky, and the sky had completely cleared up. His mood suddenly became more comfortable. After flexing his hands and feet, he saw Luo Jiuhe coming over personally holding a food box. "Has everyone in the army used food? Have you used it yourself?" Ye Chang asked. "We've all eaten. I opened the granary in Beisha City without permission and slaughtered some cattle and sheep." "Didn't I say yesterday that all the aftermath matters will be handled by you? How can you consider it unauthorized?" Ye Chang waved his hand. : "I'm hungry, let me try how good your military chef is." Putting away the bowls and chopsticks, Ye Chang thought of another question: "General Luo, how many meals do your army sergeants eat a day?" "Two meals. " "Two meals" Ye Chang pondered for a moment and started to eat. After eating,He then said: "My side, not to mention the army guards, even the militiamen, also have three meals a day. Only when you are full can you have the strength to drill and train. Only when you are willing to work hard for drills can you have three meals" He As he spoke, Luo Jiuhe looked at Luo Jiuhe. Luo Jiuhe's face was a little confused. He didn't know what Ye Chang meant by this. Ye Chang laughed again: "Well, General Luo might as well send an order to find twenty strong men in your army, and I will find twenty strong men in our army. How about we all have a wrestling match?" "Ah. ? " "We sergeants have to compare some masculine things for the school party." Ye Chang originally came up with the idea temporarily and was not prepared, so it was a little rough at first. Gradually, he thought more carefully, and then said: " Let's see, it's not just twenty strong men" He originally proposed twenty strong men because he wanted to have a tug-of-war between the two armies. The ancient name of tug-of-war is drawn by hooks, which originated from the Chu State. It was also very popular at this time, and there was even an officially organized competition for thousands of people. However, thinking that tug-of-war alone did not seem to be able to achieve his goal, Ye Chang immediately prepared several more projects. "Equal numbers of people from both sides competed in the three major events of tug-of-war, running, and football. The people in the city came to watch together. It is considered as having fun with the people. What do you think?" Luo Jiuhe lowered his head and thought, slightly confused: Ye Chang proposed this Things were easy, but he had a hard time making a choice. He should try his best to win, but he was afraid of offending Ye Chang's subordinates. He should seek defeat on his own initiative, which would hurt Ye Chang's interest. Seeing his expression, Ye Chang knew what he was planning, so he said again: "General Luo, although you are an expert in running the army and I have been famous for a long time, some people under my command have never been convinced. I want to report to the court. It's good to recommend you, but if you can't convince them, you will make things difficult for me You must go all out, not only to make you famous, but also to teach me a lesson to those arrogant people, so I can be praised They know that there are people outside the mountains, and there are mountains outside the mountains." After hearing what Ye Chang said, Luo Jiuhe could not refuse, so he immediately agreed. The two sides set a time for the test after lunch in the afternoon, and then went to gather people. Originally, people were in panic last night, including those Han and Tibetan soldiers who returned to Yi, but now they heard that there was going to be a party, and each side sent their men to compete, people suddenly calmed down: Since this Ye Canjun intends to do this, I want to come. The soldiers and civilians in the city will not be too harsh. Realizing that after the order was passed down, the nervousness and worry on the faces of the soldiers and civilians disappeared, replaced by joy and longing, Luo Jiuhe suddenly realized and consciously understood Ye Chang's intention. He originally wanted to use this competition to appease the soldiers and civilians in the city. Heart. ¡°In this case, he can¡¯t let this school competition be messed up. But he didn¡¯t know that appeasing the soldiers and civilians in Beisha City was only one of Ye Chang¡¯s goals. Ye Chang¡¯s real goal was the fifteen hundred Han and Tibetan sergeants in Beisha City. Originally there were only 2,000 soldiers in Bisha City, including 500 Han troops. In preparation for the war, the army was expanded, and the Han army expanded to 900 troops, while the Tibetan troops had more than 2,000 troops. However, most of the Tibetan soldiers were destroyed at the hands of Gao Yincheng, either captured or killed. How to deal with these soldiers is a question Ye Chang needs to consider. With his material resources, it is absolutely impossible to raise so many soldiers. The only way is to adapt. But if the adaptation wants to gain the support of Jiang Jiang, more thought must be put into it.
