Hu Xuannu, Hu Xuannu. The heart responds to the strings and the hands respond to the drums.
With the sound of the string drum, both sleeves are raised, and the snow flutters and dances.
Turn left and right without getting tired, and there is no end to the endless twists and turns.
There are no comparisons among human beings, the wheel is running slowly and the whirlwind is slow.
…
The Central Plains has its own rogues, but they are not as good as you in fighting for cleverness and contention.
Tianbao is about to change every year, and all the ministers and concubines learn to change.
Among them are Taizhen and Wailu Mountain, the two of them are the best at playing tricks.
She was registered as a concubine in the pear garden and raised as a son under the golden rooster.
The Huxuan in Lushan confused the king's eyes, and the soldiers crossed the Yellow River and doubted they had resisted.
The noble concubine's misbehavior confuses the king's heart, and the thought of abandoning Ma Wei is even deeper.
Since then, the axis of the earth and the sky have been rotating, and it has been unstoppable for fifty years.
Hu Xuannu, Mo Kongwu, sing this song several times to understand the Lord.
——Excerpt from "Hu Xuan Nu" by Bai Juyi
…
After Li Xuexuan finished speaking, Bai Fu's reaction surprised him. Along the way south, everyone who heard about the battle either cried bitterly and shed tears for the army's tragic defeat;
Old and fatuous.
Only Bai Fu was silent and silent, his face was like a flat lake. Only the light in his eyes flickered uncertainly.
Li Xuexuan was very curious and couldn't help but ask: "Yang Guozhong was a traitor and harmed the country, which led to the fall of Tongguan, a failure in success, and the loss of a good situation. Aren't you depressed? Or angry?"
Bai Fu's expression was calm and he said: "Yang Guozhong was just the straw that broke the camel's back. The Anlu Mountain Rebellion began in the feudal town. From now on, if you listen to Li Linfu's words, the disaster has been laid. The military power and financial power of the feudal town
, the political power was vested in one Jiedushi envoy, and Hu people were deliberately allowed to serve as Jiedushi envoys. With this kind of institutional arrangement, even if Anlushan did not rebel, other Hu people would cause rebellion.
In other words, Jinshang and Prime Minister Li are the main culprits and cannot escape the blame.
But from another point of view, it is not a bad thing but a blessing. Only when the situation reaches this point and people's minds change, will the civil and military officials of the dynasty look forward to the crown prince's succession.
At this point, it is meaningless to sigh and sigh. The key is how to deploy the next step. From the current short-sighted formation of troops in Anlu Mountain, I will know the outcome."
Li Xuexuan bowed her hands and asked for advice: "Can you please teach me, sir?"
Bai Fu was unhurried, imitating General Zhongsi, stroking his long beard, and said slowly: "
The Art of War says, "Five things and seven strategies." It is based on the five things of "Tao, the law of heaven and earth," and it is calibrated with seven strategies, to find out the situation, to know the victory or defeat, and then to raise the troops for a decisive battle.
First, who has the right way?
An Lushan's army was unknown, and his subordinates, such as Shi Siming, Cai Xide, Sun Xiaozhe and other generals, launched their troops to loot, massacre and surrender. They had no ambition or wisdom to compete in the Central Plains, and could not be the common masters of the world.
Secondly, who is the general capable? Who carries out the laws? Who knows the rewards and punishments?
On the other hand, when the armies of Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi left Hebei, they first did not massacre prisoners of war, and secondly did not burn, kill, and loot. They showed mercy and compassion. These are the teachers of benevolence and righteousness. Those who only kill with bloodthirsty are butchers. Those who can sympathize with the people and stop killing and fight.
He is a famous general of the generation.
Third, who can win between heaven and earth?
An Lushan's army occupied Chang'an, but the battle line was too long and supplies were insufficient. Once the Tang army cut off its food routes, or the green forest gangs along the way, heroic rangers rose up to form a rebel army, harassing them day and night, and attacking them in divisions, making them unable to defend themselves. An Lushan's army could only
Able to huddle in the city for defense.
Once the Yan army was restrained by the rebels, the royal family of Li and Tang could choose a place as a companion capital and order the troops of the world to be diligent.
The Jianghuai area was the important financial and taxation area of the Tang Dynasty, and it is still under the control of the Tang army. The waterways in the south of the Yangtze River are crisscrossed and the water network is densely covered. The Hu cavalry have no advantage and are difficult to capture.
Once a supply line of food, grass and supplies is established from the important town of Jianghuai to various Tang armies, it will be the day when the Tang army will counterattack. As time goes by, the Yan army will be defeated! Jiangshan Sheji, return to the Tang Dynasty!
Fourth, which of the soldiers is stronger? Which of the soldiers is better trained?
From the current point of view, the reason why the Yan army was able to advance forward and the Tang army was retreating steadily was because the Tang army was insufficiently prepared. The Tang army that fought against the rebels was all improvised. Once the Yan army encountered the elite Shuofang army and Anxi army, the Yan army's advantage would be gone. .”
…
Bai Fu was calm and relaxed, talking eloquently, and Li Xuexuan's beautiful eyes lit up as he listened. It seemed as if the person sitting in front of him was not a doctor, but Zhuge Wuhou with a feather fan and silk turban.
Li Xuexuan finally couldn't help but asked: "Aren't you a wandering doctor? How can you be so familiar with military affairs?"
Bai Fu was embarrassed and waved his hands repeatedly, saying: "It's just talk on paper. It's just talk on paper."
Li Xuexuan smiled and said nothing and asked no more questions.
Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading. Bai Fu's self-confidence really infected Li Xuexuan. All the way west from Luoyang, it was full of devastation, ruins, and the Tang army was defeated. It was really frustrating and hopeless.
Bai Fu is like the military advisor Guo Jia who talked about ten victories and ten defeats. If these words can be spread, the despairing soldiers and civilians of the Tang Dynasty will surely regain their confidence in defeating the Yan army.
That night, Li Xuexuan used the firelight to write down Bai Fu's political comments one by one and sealed them in wax pills.
Under the moonlight in the distance, Bai Fu leaned against a big tree and fell asleep, calmly and calmly, his face reflected in the light of the toad.
…
As soon as we entered the Shu Road, we were greeted by lush green valleys, flowing springs and waterfalls, and the dark clouds of war that shrouded the sky in Guanzhong disappeared.
Standing proudly at the mountain pass, overlooking the peaks, "The long wind drives the pines and cypresses, and the sound blows through the valleys. The people in the mountains are at ease, and the road is dangerous and their minds are calm."
The mood of the three people suddenly improved, and the gloom of the past few days was gone. Even Yang Yuhuan smiled and talked and laughed with Li Xuexuan.
Because of Xuanzong and Yang Guozhong, Bai Fu didn't like Yang Yuhuan very much, and was even a little hostile. Traveling southward, he gradually got to know her, and then he realized that although Yang Yuhuan was a noble concubine, she was actually an extremely simple person.
Yang Yuhuan lost his father when he was about ten years old and was fostered in the home of his third uncle Yang Xuanxuan in Luoyang. Therefore, he paid special attention to family ties and sincerely hoped that his people would be favored by the Holy God.
Yang Yuhuan lived in a deep palace. He was only interested in music, singing and dancing, and never participated in politics. He knew very little about the arrogance and domineering power of the "Five Yangs". He also didn't know that Mrs. Guo Guo, Yang Guozhong and others were so rich that they could rival the country.
Bai Fu mentioned "Wu Yang" as a calamity to the capital several times. Seeing Li Xuexuan's unbearable look, he left half of the words on his lips, but finally said nothing.
…
On the cliffs of the Shu Road, there are many exotic flowers and grasses: Deershuo grass mainly heals injuries, Mumu grass can detoxify, Xuncao petals nourish yin and yang, making people white and beautiful, and the fruits can prolong life and restore life...
Bai Fu asked Li Xuexuan to help collect flowers and plants and boil them into medicine. Yang Yuhuan took it every day. After a few days, his complexion became rosy and the erysipelas was completely eliminated.
Yang Yuhuan thanked him and said: "Sir, your medical skills are so superb, why do I... No, why do you, sir, have such superb medical skills, but keep your name anonymous in the capital? Isn't it a pity?"
Bai Fu had already thought of his words and answered calmly: "Master ordered me to travel around the world and help the poor within ten years after I come down from the mountain. I must not rely on my medical skills to covet wealth."
Yang Yuhuan nodded and praised: "Sir's master must be an expert in the world, with far-reaching knowledge."
At this time, the three of them rode horses to a blue pool in the valley. The water in the pool was blue and clear, as bright and attractive as milk poured into the lake.
Yang Yuhuan cheered and jumped off the horse. He was as coquettish as a little daughter and begged to stay here for one night. Bai Li and Bai Li laughed dumbly.
Suddenly there was a sound of water splashing, and a big fish jumped up in the pond, more than a foot long. It turned over in the air and fell heavily back into the water. The three of them looked intently and saw dozens of black-backed crucian carp chasing and playing in the water.
Bai Fu got off his horse, took out the green bamboo blowpipe, filled it with rice grains, and when a group of fish swam close to the water, he spit out his inner energy and knocked out a big fish, and its white belly turned up on the water.
In accordance with the law, several fish were caught in succession. Yang Yuhuan cheered, took off his shoes and socks, broke off a longer branch, and fished out the stunned crucian carp ashore with gestures for a long time.
Bai Fu used a dagger to cut open the belly of the fish, scraped off the scales and dirt, and washed it clean.
Then, the white stone was built as a stove, spread with dead branches and dry grass, ignited with fire, lit a bonfire, and cooked rice.
Bai Fu used branches to pierce the fish, spread salt evenly on the fish body, and grilled over charcoal fire. After a while, the fish meat was full of fat and fragrant, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and smooth in the mouth.
After eating dry food for several days, everyone was already tired of it. Bai Fu and Yang Yuhuan were so hungry that they ate several fish cleanly in a matter of seconds.
Li Xuexuan was a vegetarian. After the two of them finished the grilled fish, they cooked a pot of vegetable soup with wild vegetables and mushrooms, served it with Hu Pancakes, and ate it with gusto.
Yang Yuhuan was quite embarrassed and said to Li Xuexuan: "Miss Li, let me help you bake Hu biscuits. Hu biscuits are tasteless. If they are slightly mushy when baked, sprinkle with salt and they will taste very fragrant."
Li Xuexuan couldn't bear to refuse and smiled and thanked her.
Yang Yuhuan took the Hu cakes, put them on with branches, and imitated Bai Fu's grilled fish, imitating Bai Fu's grilled fish. Bai Fu and Li Xuexuan were nearby, chatting about the wild history of the rivers and lakes, and Yang Yuhuan could hear them.
With relish.
While talking and laughing, the three of them smelled a burnt smell. When they turned around, Yang Yuhuan yelled. It turned out that in this distraction, he did not pay attention to the roasted food, and actually baked the pancake into a piece of burnt black charcoal. Obviously
Can't eat it.
Yang Yuhuan suddenly felt frustrated, pouted and muttered. Not knowing what he thought of, he hugged his knees with his hands, buried his head and neck, and started sobbing. In the end, tears fell like rain, and he cried bitterly.
Bai Li and the two looked at each other and felt the same. It was hard for anyone to accept that their clansmen had been abandoned and killed, and that their husbands were heartless and abandoned their lives. In the past few days, Yang Yuhuan had been holding back his grief and suppressing his body and mind. This situation made him collapse again.
Li Xuexuan walked to Yang Yuhuan and gently held her arm so that she could lean on her shoulders. At this moment, in the mountains of Bashu, there was no mother-like Peony in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, only a weak and homeless daughter.
