The valley was shrouded in a faint mist, and the mist seemed to be mixed with the smell of gunpowder smoke and blood that had not dissipated a few days ago.
The killing did not stop there, nor did the barbarity fade away by etiquette.
The eunuch Yang Sixu looked gloomy and angry, and he was afraid he would vent his ragged barbarians here.
No one doubts whether he can afford to massacre the city. He is not the first to kill civilians in war-torn places, nor will he be the last one.
Before joining the army, Yang Sixu was not listening to the advice and planned not to talk much, but when he saw that he was going to do something reckless, he finally couldn't help but stand up again to persuade him.
Yang Sixu's anger was nothing more than a lot of food and grass being burned, and he couldn't find who did it, so he wanted to kill all the Nanzhao people in the mountain village to commit crimes.
The record did not think that the main fault was the people of Nanzhao. There were many complaints about Yang Sixu's words before that: When the Tang army first entered the mountain village, Yang Gong wanted to kill the leader of the village and other leaders, so I persuaded him, but Yang Gong insisted on doing it.How is it now? We are not familiar with the language and geography. It is a problem to investigate several criminals, let alone to govern these barbarians.I hope that Yang Gong would appease the village leader and others to help them and use them to control the barbarians, so why would he suffer today's difficulties?...It was unwise to misuse the criminal law before. Now, if Mr. Yang killed all the people in the village, he would have made a big mistake!After learning about this, the court officials must have blamed Mr. Yang for not understanding the intentions of the court. Although the military achievements of driving to the Nanzhao Dazhai for hundreds of miles is commendable, what is the use?I and Yang Gong have been doing things for several years, how can there be any harm to each other?Please make a clear decision.
When Yang Sixu reminded him, he thought it was a little reasonable and his anger disappeared a little, but the crime was finally unwilling to accept the crime and felt that he could not get out of the way, so he asked: Now, this plan will be done?
The record reviewed the other Wuzhao reinforcements leaders who stood far away watching the show and whispered: Wuzhao barbarians sent troops to cooperate with our Tang Dynasty Protectorate. In addition to taking the imperial edict, they all planned three things: slaves, land, and property.These tribes were still in the time of slave production, and the strength of the leaders of each tribe was mostly measured by the number of land and the number of slaves. If Yang Gong rewarded the people of the village to them, wouldn’t it be a temporary solution: it not only avoided our reputation of tyranny and bloodthirsty, but also commended the Wuzhao for sending troops to aid food and grass, and the excuse of barbarians in the village attacking and burning military rations, which also played a punishment role for the people of Nanzhao.Why not do it?
After hearing this, Yang Sixu calmed down and laughed: He Lushi is indeed a cunning person.
The recorder was shocked and he didn't comment on this praise.
So Yang Sixu adopted the opinion of the recorder to join the army, turned all the people in the village into slavery into slavery, and handed them over to the Five Dynasties to divide them.Two days later, he led the coalition forces of various ethnic groups to advance to the Nanzhao Village, Guazhou, Yang.
Originally, if Piluoge wanted to fight the Tang army in Yangguazhou, he could mobilize tens of thousands of troops, but unfortunately he did not have the courage to be enemies head-on with the Tang army, and he had no confidence...
Even if it is several times more than the enemy, there is no chance of winning. In the wars of the Tang army, there are often wars against enemies that are several times or even ten times more than themselves.
So Piluge gave up the opportunity to fight in an open land and took his staff, slave owners and elite troops up the mountain.
After Yang Sixu led the coalition troops into Yangguazhou without any blood, he figured out where Piluoge went and led his troops to the foot of the mountain.
I saw the mountain high into the clouds and the terrain was dangerous, and the path on the hillside was wrapped around like a snake...
Seeing this, a general said depressedly: It is really a struggle to fight such a war. If Pi Luoge is unwilling to come down and stands on it, not to mention catching him in half a month, even if he kills thousands of people in a few months, he may not be able to attack him.
However, Yang Sixu smiled and said: The army is invading the enemy, and the soldiers will take this place without bloodshed within half a month.
All the generals were very curious. They were not afraid that they could fight against the Southern Barbarians. The most disgusting thing was this kind of thing. If you fight, you won’t fight with you. With the dangerous terrain, you will be exhausted... Mr. Yang didn’t know what tricks he had?
At this moment, a soldier suddenly reported: A messenger from Chang'an was coming.
After hearing this, Yang Sixu hurried back to the camp to meet the envoy.The man took out a letter and said: This is not a court document, but a private letter from King Jin to Yang Gong. Please read it.
What?
Yang Sixu looked flattered and hurriedly received a letter asking someone to come and have a good hospitality.
Although he has been in the border for a long time, his actual identity is that he was a eunuch who used to be a gangster in the palace. He has always paid great attention to the affairs of the Chang'an palace and can understand it the most clearly.
Yang Sixu understands Xue Chongxun’s power in Chang’an too!
Now that he can receive Xue Chongxun’s private letters far away in southern Xinjiang, how can he not be flattered?
Being favored by the superiors is more effective than fighting bloody battles in southern Xinjiang to win ten victories, and it can also cling to those in power, avoiding the pressure of being worried...
After Yang Sixu was demoted to the south due to his political error, he was frightened, fearing that he would be given poisoned wine when he would come to a liquidation.
You should know that during the Wu Zetian period, many brave and good-for-war people who made many military achievements died as cowardly as dogs because of political mistakes. It is easier for Yang Sixu, a eunuch, to die without a background in his family!
He pulled open the envelope with excitement and nervousness, his fingers trembling, praying is a blessing or not a disaster!
I saw a few uglily words on it: I heard all the good news and got interesting talks, saying that before the war, Yang Gong first wrote good news and put them in his clothes and then fought, which was an interesting thing; the court was at the time of employment, and Yang Gong's talent made me feel like I was venting my love for me, and I will win back soon, and I will welcome you.
What is love for vomiting?Yang Sixu wondered for a moment, and after a while, he recalled the words that Zhou Gong vomited and returned to the world.
After reading a piece of paper, he was so excited that he laughed. He didn't even look at the second one. He was so excited that his hands and feet danced, how could he look like a man with gray hair in his early fifties?
Seeing this, the general was shocked and said: Mr. Yang, what is the happy event?
A great joy!Yang Sixu handed the letter he had read to his general.After a while, everyone shouted happily: Congratulations to Mr. Yang Gaosheng!
Yang Sixu sighed: King Jin is really a pillar of the country. We are thousands of miles away, and he can also care about the warmth and warmth of the soldiers. It makes people cry.
After he said that, he read the second letter, which wrote a small matter, saying that the barbarians of X-He were Piluoge's slaves, and asked Yang Sixu to confirm whether they were killed after arriving in Yangguazhou.
After seeing it, Yang Sixu immediately ordered: Go and look for it immediately!If you live, you will see someone dead and die, you will see the corpse. Everyone will go find it!
The recorder joined the army and advised: Our army is at the foot of the dangerous mountain, and it only takes half a month. If we don’t hurry up and prepare for the war to take down the chief, but go to find a group of slaves. Wouldn’t it be that we will lose our roots and chase the end?
Yang Sixu smiled and said: I said, "Old He Ah, I praised you for being cunning, why are you confused now?"
The recorder frowned and said: How do you say this?
Yang Sixu smiled but did not answer, and then looked left and said: Why do you need troops to capture Piluoge?One messenger can achieve success.
The recorder became curious: What kind of trick did Mr. Yang have? Why would he talk to us?
A few days ago, He Lushi advised the method of "using barbarians to govern the barbarians". He wanted to leave the Burmese village leader and the leader to govern the barbarians, but I did not adopt it and everything went wrong.After thinking about what I said, I made some sense, and then I learned from the idea of a way to capture the submission.In this way, He Lushi also made half of his contribution.
Yang Sixu talked with each other, and Piluoge and Nanzhao slave owners were on the mountain, but the land slaves were at the foot of the mountain. Just an envoy went up to tell them the pros and cons. If Piluoge did not escort Piluoge down the mountain, he would divide the land and slaves of Nanzhao with the other five Zhaos... Haha, those leaders followed Piluoge and nothing were gone, what else would they do with him? We will definitely rebel and help us catch Piluoge down the mountain!
When the generals heard this, they shouted a clever plan.
Yang Sixu smiled and said: The leaders of Nanzhao on the mountain do not know that I was capturing Piluoge within one month. If I stay on the mountain for one more day, I might be divided up with part of the land and property. Do you think it is the people in Nanzhao or are we panic?
He Lushibang clasped his fists and said: It all depends on Mr. Yang's magic tricks, and he dare not be greedy for merit.It is very easy for people to learn from one example and apply it to others.
Yang Sixu said: What I benefited the most was to draw on others' strengths and use them. The use of gunpowder to blow up the walls in the Battle of Burma was also due to the method of King Jin.
All the generals worshiped each other.
He Lushi said: I have no strength to tie a chicken, but I can still do it with my three-inch tongue. Please ask Gong Yang to do it as an envoy to do this.
Yang Sixu shook his head and said: This credit was given to the Wuzhao barbarians. Why did you remember to have a friendship with me for several years? I can't bear to let you die.This is a road of going but not returning. When the envoy goes up the mountain, Piluoge will definitely kill the envoy in anger before the rebellion.
He Lushi was very moved when he heard this.
Yang Sixu said again: Although He Lushi often contradicts me, I can distinguish clearly from public intentions and it is not surprising.
So they sent envoys and assigned people to find the family members of the Great Barbarian.I first looked for Heman slaves, and then confirmed one by one. A few days later, I actually found the person Xue Chongxun told me!
It turned out that Piluoge was very surprised after hearing the Tang army sent troops. Unexpectedly, he was thinking about how to turn the danger into a bargain to resist the Tang army's march. How could he care about the small matter he discussed with Zhang Jiancheng before?
No mind at all.
Later, he heard that the Tang army had captured Burmese village and appeared in Yangguazhou a few days later. He was even more panicked and rushed to the mountains, so the parents and clan members of the Daman and Xiaoman were safe and sound.
...The envoy who went up the mountain after a few days was indeed killed. He threw the body from the cliff behind and fell into meat pie. He was not as good as the envoy sent up the mountain. Only from the clothes and accessories can he tell that it was the envoy sent up the mountain.
Not long after, the leaders of the tribes in Nanzhao rebelled and organized a besiege to kill all the subordinates of Piluoge, tied up Piluoge down the mountain to apologize.
The matter is reasonable. The former chief of Nanzhao was originally from the Zhang family. Later, he was forced to abdicate to Wumanpiluoge's ancestors. Now he just seized the opportunity to regain power and could still protect the people of Nanzhao's land.
Both public and private affairs were successfully completed, and Yang Sixu's face was laughing.
The killing did not stop there, nor did the barbarity fade away by etiquette.
The eunuch Yang Sixu looked gloomy and angry, and he was afraid he would vent his ragged barbarians here.
No one doubts whether he can afford to massacre the city. He is not the first to kill civilians in war-torn places, nor will he be the last one.
