Chapter 83 Beautiful Misunderstanding
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, there are struggles, and where there are struggles, there are blood.
Song Jingang’s ideal is very full, but the reality is too cruel.
His intention to escape was already seen by Xu Shiji and Wei Zheng, so he ordered Zhang Tiehu to lead three thousand troops to attack, which became a joke.
The conspiracy is very threatening before it is discovered. But once it is seen through, it is easy to deal with it. For example, in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it seems that Huang Gai had a conflict with the main general Zhou Yu, and Huang Gai wanted to lead his troops to surrender. In fact, Huang Gai wanted to approach the Cao army's navy to set fire. If Cao Cao saw through this plan in advance, it would be impossible to discover the fire of the camp.
It was also a conspiracy, and Song Jingang's intention to run away had been seen through by Xu Shiji and Wei Zheng. When Zhang Tiehu was feinting, Xu Shiji took advantage of the situation and sent elite troops to ambush the Foye Mountain in the eastern part of Xuzhou.
As a result, Song Jingang, who thought he was good at it, crashed into Xu Shiji's encirclement. Song Jingang's 20,000 army was annihilated and more than 3,000 surrendered. However, Song Jingang led more than 4,000 elite troops to accidentally break through Zhuyugu and escape from Zhuyugu.
However, when Wuzhou was captured, the throat of southern Jin Dynasty, the Pingyang Gate had already fallen into the hands of the Tang army. Li Jiancheng also knew the reason why soldiers were more powerful. He ordered Yuan Baozang to lead three thousand soldiers to Jiangcheng, but unexpectedly received Wang Xingben's surrender. Wang Xingben saw that Liu Wuzhou was powerful and surrendered without a single arrow. Now that the Tang army is powerful, Wang Xingben is going to surrender again.
Li Jiancheng wanted to accept Wang Xingben's surrender, but Wei Zheng said: "Such a slave from the three surnames and a fickle villain, keeping it will bring endless disasters."
Li Jiancheng felt the same, so he immediately ordered that Wang Xingben refuse to accept Wang Xingben's surrender. Wang Xingben was far away, but was killed by his subordinates and sent his head to Li Jiancheng's camp.
What is completely different from Song Jingang is that Li Xiuning presided over the Taiyuan Battle and adopted an open plot. Just like Cao Cao's attack on Jingzhou, he wrote to you that I want to attack you. Cao's army made great efforts and stretched for dozens of miles, and Jingzhou knelt directly.
The same was true for Li Xiuning. He used the Lingwu Right Army and the Lingwu Left Army to surround the north and east of Taiyuan respectively. He set up the central army commander's tent in the west of Taiyuan City, surrounded three and one, and only stayed in the southern city of Taiyuan.
The Shuozhou Army, an army composed of ordinary people, had almost no combat power. However, Li Xiuning took this army as a treasure and replaced the armor and weapons seized from the Tianxing Army. At the same time, he merged into the surrendered soldiers of the Tianxing Army to form a new Bingzhou Army.
Chen Ying was not worried about the Taiyuan Battle, but he asked Princess Pingyang Li Xiuning for nearly 2,000 people. The Lingzhou generals appointed first were camped, such as Ge Tong, Wei Meng, Guo Zhun, Yan Shihu, etc., and they all took them back. When Li Xiuning saw that most of the people selected by Chen Ying were above 40 years old, and less than 20% of the young and middle-aged people were young and middle-aged. He thought that Chen Ying was to ensure the combat effectiveness of the Shuozhou Army and eliminated the old and weak, and directly let these people go with a big pen.
Chen Ying gave these more than 2,000 craftsmen a talisman (ancient ID cards) and a letter of trust, and asked them to move their family to Lingzhou. Chen Ying gave them very generous treatment, including children over three years old, with an average of 60 acres of land per capita. The craftsmen looked at the letter of trust, who had not dried up, and were afraid that Chen Ying would regret it, so they hurriedly took their family toward Lingzhou.
However, these people don’t have to work too hard, they can take a sheepskin raft to Lingzhou.
There were exceptions among these craftsmen, that is, they left more than a dozen apprentices including Ge Tong, deputy chief supervisor of the camp, and Zhao Wushang, at Weize Pass. Because Chen Ying learned from Li Xiuning that Li Yuan had sent an envoy to the capital to accept the enthronement.
This time he was promoted to county duke, and now he is the only county duke in the Tang Dynasty who is not a hereditary crown prince. Li Xiuning didn't know the specific title, so naturally no one said it.
Don’t mention that Chen Ying was injured, even if he was not injured, he would get sick by riding a carriage of this era. So Chen Ying left Ge Tong to build a new carriage, equipped with rolling bearings, shock absorption settings, and four-wheel guide carriage.
According to the Tang Dynasty system, Chen Ying could enter and exit the four-horse carriage, and with the pulling force of four horses, he could fully pull the four-wheeled heavy-duty carriage.
"Oh, it's still not possible."
Ge Tong was almost desperate. After experimenting countless times, the scrapped steel had exceeded 1,000 kilograms. Now even the quarantine in charge of the baggage looked at Ge Tong like a wolf, and wanted to eat Ge Tong.
More than a thousand kilograms of iron, hundreds of horizontal knives, dozens of sets of armor, were wasted by Ge Tong, it would be strange if he was not angry.
Since becoming an official, Ge Tong has liked to compare with others with his senior officials. After the military officer was from the seventh rank and found that the other party was not as good as his own, Ge Tong's waist was straight and said aloud: "Don't talk nonsense, three hundred pounds."
In fact, the size of an official position depends on the grade, but on the actual power. A dignified minister and a third-rank official can only take off his black gauze crown and kneel down to defend himself when he is impeached by a censor or censor. The ministerial servant of the eunuch is only a sixth-rank official. Even if he is a deputy prime minister, who dares not give him face?
However, Ge Tong and the Quartermaster are not seal officials, but they are responsible for their own practice. Both sides are not the same system, and no one can do anything to each other. Not to mention the Quartermaster of the Seventh-rank, even if they are eighth-rank, they will not be able to give Ge Tong a deputy chief of the sixth-rank, Ge Tong has no way to do anything.
What's more, this quarrestrial officer can pick the bones in the eggs during the inspection process, making it difficult for Ge Tong to do so. But Ge Tong didn't know that and had a tough attitude.
"Three hundred pounds!" The quarantine's face twitched: "Why don't you go and grab it?"
"This is what the general wants, you can do it!" Ge Tong neither explained nor ignored him, and took Zhao Wushen Changyang away.
The quarantine officer was naturally not afraid of Ge Tong, but Chen Ying's request was not dissatisfied with it. Although he complained, he still sent 300 kilograms of steel to Ge Tong's craftsman's workshop according to Ge Tong's wishes.
In fact, although Chen Ying understands the properties and parameters of spring steel, such as adding manganese, silicon, chromium and other elements, Chen Ying really doesn't know how to find these reasons, and Chen Ying doesn't know how to add them.
I can only let Ge Tong explore slowly.
Spring steel can not only create springs and carriage shock absorption, but in fact, steel crossbows made of spring steel are more powerful and lighter and more compact. They are used to hit a scorpion crossbow with a spring steel, and use pulleys to quickly wind the strings. As long as the arrows are constantly being arrowed, the crossbow can be suppressed. Once such a crossbow is built, it will be a totally overturning change.
In addition, once the wire is tied out coldly, the wire mesh is also a sharp weapon to prevent cavalry from raiding. Once put into use, it can quickly create a line of defense and surround the cavalry in the wire mesh.
Just when Ge Tong and Zhao Wushang and others were making spring steel, Chen Ying was leisurely teaching Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang to learn to read. In fact, Wu Yuanqing had already read the Thousand Characters and several Analects of Confucius. Wu Yuanshuang was a little worse, and he also knew a few hundred words. However, Chen Ying was teaching Wu brothers: "At the beginning, people were good in nature, similar in nature, and similar in habits. If they did not teach, their nature would be moved. The way of teaching was to be specialized. In the past, Meng's mother chose a neighbor. She did not learn the son and broke the loom. Dou Yanshan had a righteous demeanor. She taught the five sons and all her names were famous."
Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang followed Chen Ying and recited silently: "Dou Yanshan has Yi Fang. He teaches his five sons and is famous all!"
Chen Ying didn't feel anything just now. When Wu Yuanqing and Wu Shuang recited, Chen Ying felt something was wrong. Dou Yanshan was talking about Dou Yujun from the Later Jin Dynasty during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. Later, his wife gave birth to five sons in a row. He devoted all his energy to cultivating and educating his sons, not only paying attention to their bodies at all times, but also paying attention to their learning and moral cultivation. Under his training and education, the five sons became useful talents and passed the imperial examinations one after another.
Fortunately, Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang did not ask about it, otherwise this would be a big mistake.
However, as the saying goes, what you are afraid of comes from, I suddenly heard a sound outside the door: "Mr. Xiao of the family has five sons, all of whom are famous all over the world. I wonder when did the family ancestor have the title of Dou Yanshan?"
Chen Ying looked outside the door in surprise, and a kind-looking old man twisted his beard and smiled.
The old man was wearing black deer leather boots, wearing a black gauze crown, and wearing a purple suit.
From the old man's outfit, Chen Ying inferred that this should be a third-rank official. Chen Ying said: "Forgive Chen Ying to be seriously injured and cannot give the full tribute, so he is not satisfied!"
"I am Dou Cong!"
Dou Cong's father was Dou Chi, who inherited the Jianchang Duke and Li Yuan's father-in-law. Dou Chi's father was Dou Lue, who had five sons, Xing, Ba, Yue, Shan and Chi. Each of them had a very famous reputation.
