Yu Wenhuaji killed 30,000 people in Hebei, and Yu Juluo dared to be angry but dared not speak out. If Gao Jiong was still alive, he could still expect Gao Jiong to stand up for him. It would be too offensive for him to stand up for him alone.
Because everyone can see that Yu Wenji came to Hebei to take the heads of people from Hebei and accumulate merit. His father had just made great achievements, and no one would find it uncomfortable to compete with Yu Wenshu at this time.
Yuguluo has been in Hebei for many years. Although he is only the governor of Xindu in name, once there is a war in Hebei, the court will think of him first. Therefore, he has a high prestige in Hebei, just like Zhang Xutuo in Shandong.
.
Yu Wenhuaji led his troops into Xindu, while Shi Xiang and Qu Tutong continued to lead their troops south. They wanted to sift through the southern boundary of Xindu County like a sieve. Anyone who participated in the civil unrest this year, or from
All the deserters and civilians who escaped from the front line will have to settle their accounts later.
"You can't do it like this," Yu Juluo said kindly in the lobby: "The chaos in Hebei has stabilized now. There are some things that need to be turned a blind eye. It is really inappropriate for General Manager Yuwen to go on such a killing spree.
A smart move.”
Yu Wenhuaji said with a smile: "The benevolence of the ladies of Gaotang, traitors are like moths, eroding our mountains and rivers. If they are not completely cut off, they may reappear. You are too soft-hearted, which is why the chaos in Hebei has become so big."
I fucked your mother, you killed someone, patted your butt and left, but I am still in Hebei, and then all the public resentment will be directed at me, you are outrageous, how can I bear the wrath of God and people?
Yu Juluo chuckled: "Some people are desperate and are bewitched by traitors, so they are here. Your Majesty has the virtue of loving the people. If you kill indiscriminately, Your Majesty will not be happy."
Yu Wenhuaji grinned: "I don't want to come either. Don't I want to go back to the capital? Mr. Gao Tang, I'm here to wipe your ass. I don't know how to understand good people."
Good guy, how dare you, a little bastard, talk to me like this? When I was serving Emperor Gaozu, you didn’t know where you were. It’s such a shitty day, relying on your father, how arrogant you have become?
Yu Juluo was not a good-tempered person either. Hearing this, he stood up angrily:
"Before your expedition, Your Majesty granted me the envoy Chijie with arbitrary power over Hebei. I will send people to recover Shi Xiang and Qu Tutong. Don't you want to return to the capital? Please go back as soon as possible."
Yu Wenhuaji also stood up suddenly: "Don't use that little scepter to appoint me. I am the ambassador of Hebei Province deposed by His Majesty. You are now under my control. Yu Juluo, don't forget the lessons learned from your brother."
.”
Yuguluo suddenly became furious: "You dare to threaten me?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, you are the county official," Yu Wenhuaji said with a smile: "You can do whatever you have to do, I have the final say in Hebei's affairs now."
Yu Juluo narrowed his eyes and sneered: "You have no respect for your elders. You rely on Xu Gong to be so domineering, Yu Wenji, I will see when you will be finished."
After saying that, Yu Juluo waved his sleeves and left.
If you can't persuade Yu Wenji, then go and persuade the other two. I'm sitting in Hebei, and you've made me full of holes. How am I going to clean up this mess in the future?
If something happens again in Hebei, the court will only accuse me.
Yu Juluo has a very clear view. He only wants to protect himself and cannot let them continue to behave like this.
So he took people directly out of the city and went south to find the other two stewards.
Shi Xiang and Qu Tutong both have higher prestige in the military than Yu Wenhuaji, but their ranks are the same. The difference is that they both rely on their ancestors and their own strength, while Yu Wenhuaji relies entirely on his father.
They were not convinced that these two people were allowed to serve as Yu Wenhuaji's assistant, so they have been perfunctory since they went south.
Counterinsurgency, there is no rebellion anymore, now we just kill civilians, it doesn't take much effort, but the risk is not small.
The two armies were divided into seventeen routes and headed south, while Shi Xiang and Qu Tutong walked slowly at the end, almost like traveling. They were tired of fighting Goguryeo, and the two of them were not very concerned about countering the rebellion.
We meet often and have a few drinks together.
Shi Xiang was from Yang Guang, and his younger brother Shi Yun was the governor of Donglai County and had a close relationship with Zhang Xutuo. The two brothers were the sons of Shi Ning, the young Situ of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and they were also prominent for generations.
Historically, Shi Xiang followed Yang Guang in the battle against Goguryeo. He was defeated miserably and was expelled as a citizen. Later, he became the prefect of Yan County, which was one of the three counties in the north of the Liaoxi Corridor. It was a place where birds had nothing to do. Later, he was defeated by Gao Kaidao.
He was treated with courtesy and sent someone to take Shi Xiang to Zhuo County, but he died on the way.
He is a relatively cautious person. After meeting Qu Tutong this time, they started chatting:
"Half of our soldiers are from Guanzhong and half are from Shanxi. To be honest, the soldiers would not be able to kill like this in Hebei."
These three places had a very deep connection in ancient China. The big families in the three places had the most frequent marriages, especially Shanxi and Guanzhong, who were brothers separated by the Yellow River.
During the Northern Wei Dynasty, the four major surnames were Fan Yanglu, Qinghe Cui, Xingyang Zheng, and Taiyuan Wang. These four families were crazy about marriages and were constantly involved, thus linking up the close relationship between Shanxi and Hebei.
However, since the rise of the Guanlong Group, Hebei's status has not been good, mainly because of Cui Hao's "Prison of National History" incident in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Several big families in Shanxi and Hebei were all implicated, and their vitality was seriously damaged.
At present, the people in Guanzhong are quite capable of killing people from Hebei, but not Shanxi. People in Shanxi are unwilling to kill people from Hebei, especially civilians.
Ordinary soldiers are also from civilian backgrounds.
"Sigh... this job is really difficult," Qu Tutong had a very good relationship with Yang Ming a long time ago, because he would be the head of the imperial guard of Yong'an Palace, and Yang Ming would do it every day.
Go to Yong'an Palace.
"Show me your noble hand, I haven't been able to sleep well these past few nights. Killing barbarians is not a problem for me, but killing ordinary people, alas... I'm afraid of committing sins. I'm afraid that future generations will also suffer the consequences."
Report, it’s hard for me to explain to the prince.”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Being the leader of the imperial guard for Dugu Jialuo must be a Buddhist. Qu Tutong is a military general, killing people is commonplace, but killing like this now,
He also has a little conscience.
I didn't kill like this in Goguryeo.
Shi Xiang frowned and said: "There are too many civilians and deserters who escaped from the front line. Many of them actually returned home honestly and did nothing. We can give these people some slack.
As for those who follow the rebels to wreak havoc in the surrounding areas, just kill the leaders and forget it, I don’t plan to continue killing them like this, it’s up to you.”
"We coincidentally coincide," Qu Tutong said happily.
In any case, the two of them were sent by Yang Guang to assist Yu Wenhua and suppress the rebellion. If they were treated perfunctorily and were afraid of taking the blame, now that Shi Xiang is willing to share the burden, Qu Tutong is naturally happy:
"You are not familiar with the prince and don't understand our prince's temperament. With the things we are doing now, I am afraid that we will be severely punished by the prince when we return to the capital. We can stop in time now before it is too late."
Shi Xiang's mouth twitched. He was very afraid of the prince. Even though he was the emperor's servant, if the prince was determined to deal with someone now, the emperor would never stop him.
Today's prince is not just a show-off. His authority has become so great that one person from all over the world is under him.
"That's easy to say. If the prince asks for guilt, let's blame Yuwen Wenji. This kid relies on Yuwenshu and becomes more and more arrogant." Shi Xiang said hey: "The prince and his family have never dealt with each other, but I want to see it.
When Yu Wenhuaji goes back this time, can he get his wish and be granted a public title?"
Qu Tutong thought for a while and said: "The prince can't pass the test, let alone the duke or the marquis."
It was at this time that the guards outside came to report that Gong Yujuluo from Gaotang County had arrived.
Shi Xiang suddenly frowned: "What is he here for? To urge us to put down the rebellion?"
Qu Tutong shook his head: "Not necessarily. I have interacted with him before in the palace. He is a cautious and prudent man. His younger brother is not like being born to the same parents. Let's see what he says."
After a while, Yu Juluo came in furiously, and the seats originally reserved for him and the food and drinks were kicked over by him:
"What do you two want to do?"
Shi Xiang and Qu Tutong subconsciously looked at each other and said in surprise:
"Where do you get so angry?"
Yuguluo said angrily: "You are killing people in Hebei. After killing, you pat your butt and leave. Wipe the shit on my face and withdraw your troops immediately. Otherwise, I will file a memorial and sue all three of you together with Yu Wenhua and Yu Wenji."
.”
The reason why he became so angry was that on the way here, he saw Shi Xiang's soldiers transporting carloads of corpses to a deserted suburb, digging a big pit and burying them on the spot.
When Yu Juluo saw this, his lungs almost exploded with anger. After he came in, he scolded the two of them.
Qu Tutong said with an ugly face: "Don't get angry at us. We are also doing things according to orders. Who is willing to do such an immoral thing? You go find Yu Wenhuaji."
"He didn't listen to me," Yu Juluo sat down angrily and said to the two of them: "But you two have been through accidents for a long time, how can you do it?"
Shi Xiang hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, don't get angry. The two of us have just discussed it. We will deal with it carefully and won't kill if we can."
"Are you still planning to kill?" Yu Juluo said: "If you continue to kill, if Hebei turns against you, I will lose my head and I will drag you three with me."
Qu Tutong chuckled and said, "You can't say you don't understand Yu Wenji, so you come and scold us. We're so damn angry."
"That's just right!" Yu Juluo said: "The three of us jointly submitted a petition to your Majesty to allow you to withdraw from Hebei."
After Shi Xiang pondered for a while, he said: "Okay, you take the lead, and we both write down our names."
"That's inappropriate!" Qu Tutong quickly raised his hand: "If you want to clear away the relationship, it's better to join forces."
After saying that, Qu Tutong winked at Shi Xiang: Why don't you seize the opportunity to dump the blame?
Shi Xiang is also an old fox, and he immediately understood: "Okay, let's jointly sign."
........
Yang Guang is not a fool. With so many people following him around Shanxi, they can eat up all the bark of the trees in Shanxi. Therefore, for those who can return, Yang Guang has ordered them to return to the headquarters of the various ministries in advance to reward them with money and pensions to find the prince.
He was not embarrassing his son. In fact, Yu Zhongwen had already led You Yiwei to escort the capture of Goguryeo. As soon as he arrived, the court's dilemma of lack of money could be solved in an instant.
Besides, there is Tu Wanxu hanging at the back of the car, who has already started selling Goguryeo captives. The captives are also priced based on their appearance. Those who are strong and strong, have beautiful skin, and have double eyelids will definitely be sold.
good price.
In Goguryeo and Baekje, Silla, the indigenous people there all have single eyelids. This matter is more complicated. There are two theories:
One is that the ancient Asian race was there, and the Central Plains was the New Asian race. About 30,000 years ago, the New Asian race had a massacre of the ancient Asian race, so that the ancient Asian race
They all hid in remote areas of Northeast Asia.
The second theory is that the "Mongolian high pressure" exists in the Mongolian Plateau and Tunguska region, which is one of the world's largest sources of cold air. Troubled by the cold air from the south, the eyes of Mongolians and Northeast Asians have become single eyelids for protection.
eyeball.
As for which statement is reliable, I don’t know. Anyway, as long as the Goguryeo people see double eyelids, they are descendants of the Central Plains people, and they can sell them for a good price.
People became commodities, just like mules and horses, and were taken to the market for sale, with priority for purchase in Shanxi.
Yang Guang was celebrating the New Year in Jinyang, and he didn't plan to leave after the New Year. After all, he was tired from traveling for a year and had a minor illness, so he had to stay in Jinyang for a long time to recuperate.
Yang Guang also saw the joint memorial written by Yu Juluo and the three of them. Just withdraw, as long as Hebei is stable. As for the accusations against Yu Wenhuaji in the memorial by the three of them, Yang Guang did not take it seriously. This memorial,
Only he and the officials in the province knew.
At this time, it was impossible for Yang Guang to ask Sinyu Wenji.
The capital, Yu Zhongwen, came back. Because he came back with money, Guan Wang Yang Xiong personally went to Chang'an Station to greet him.
Yang Xiong took the other party's hand and said with a smile: "Ciwu (Yu Zhongwen) has worked hard and made great achievements. It is a foregone conclusion that his name will go down in history. Don't take the carriage. Let's ride on horseback and walk down Zhuque Street. People all over the city are waiting to welcome you."
Yu Zhongwen laughed and said: "I have to wait and see the king come from afar, but I don't dare to bear the responsibility. I am just trying my best. The main thing is that your majesty plans the strategy."
After all, he was one of the main generals in the attack on Pyongyang, and his credit was only due to Yu Wenshu and Lai Guer. Naturally, he also had to sprinkle water to clean the streets and decorate them with colorful brocades.
The people crowded the streets to welcome him, and Yu Zhongwen, who was sitting on the horse, felt very happy inside.
What do people want to do in their lives? Isn’t it just to achieve success and fame?
A person like him, who is from the Xianbei tribe and has been a noble for generations, has no worries about food and clothing. When he is not seeking profit, he is just seeking fame.
Yu Zhongwen couldn't help but feel a little emotional. When he left Beijing last time, the prince gave him a stern warning, which made him quite worried. Now that he has returned with a great reputation, he feels relaxed.
"The prince is in the palace?" Yu Zhongwen asked.
Yang Xiong smiled and said, "I'm waiting for you at the Zhuque Gate."
Yu Zhongwen was stunned and said quickly: "Oh, how can I be welcomed by the prince personally? Let's go quickly."
