Logically speaking, when Xixia was defeated, the lord of a country fell into the hands of the enemy. Even if Ximen Qing treated him with courtesy, he should have "discussed" the issue of compensation for war, and even the ransom of prisoners, even the severance of land cedes. If you are in a place, you will never be polite if you are doing it smoothly.
But Ximen Qing didn't mention these things.
No one knows what Ximen Qing and Li Ganshun said, and no one can understand Li Ganshun's identity. The day after talking all night, Ximen Qing personally sent Ganshun out of the camp, and Ganshun was still wearing that mysterious piece of The black cloak disappeared into the curious eyes of everyone.
No one could imagine that their public enemy, the Xixia Emperor Li Ganshun, actually lived in his camp for a day, and then walked back without any harm. Even if someone exposed Ximen Qing's indulgence to them, these people would I won't believe it.
Even Li Ganshun himself couldn't believe it. He rode on the camel sent by Ximen Qing and walked south, always worried about where to jump out of a bunch of assassins who had figured out, or which pile of sand would shoot a poisonous arrow. , or a team of pursuers suddenly caught up behind him - but until he returned to the Zuoxiang Shenwang Army Division in his country and met with his own people, the imagined accident did not occur.
Listening to the sound of long live the mountain cry in his ears, Li Ganshun felt a daze in his heart - he is really back? It's really okay? Is everything before really a nightmare?
After coming back to his senses, Li Ganshun remembered that Ximen Qing had once reminded himself before leaving: "After going back, staying for a few days, you will be surprised." If you are an ordinary person, since you are safe, you will definitely run away as soon as possible and hide. The farther and farther the place of this soldier is, the better - but Li Ganshun is not an ordinary person. He is a brave and decisive emperor. He entered the enemy camp alone and regarded death as if he was home. He would rather break up than be a complete set of bricks. Now he has soldiers and generals, but he is afraid of What? If Ximen Qing’s surprise is to bring troops to fight, then we can fight again. The shame of a king of a country can only be cleansed with blood. If he does not fight a turnaround, he will have no shame to return to Xingqing Mansion.
Li Ganshun was ready to die and waited for the army to come. Two days later, a dark army came. However, although Li Ganshun had been sharpening his knife for two days, his knife could not be cut down now--because , This army was all Xixia prisoners released by Ximen Qing.
Ximen Qing is still kind and righteous. The prisoners who came back were able to keep their clothes to keep warm. In addition, the armor, camels, horses, weapons, flags, drums, tents and beams were stripped away, and the food and water they carried were also stretched. When they saw their brothers, they were too short of their ability. The prisoners all cried—not because of the excitement of surviving their hometown, but because of their despair for the future—the Xixia military system, a regular army was given a "Eternal Life" horse, and a camel each, the so-called "Eternal Life" horse, Camel means that after the horses and camels are all assigned to be compensated individually, the soldiers will be compensated individually. This time they were defeated, and the soldiers' limited public and private property were unlimitedly communed by Ximen Qing, and they were all so poor that they were so poor. Light, what should I use to compensate? Thinking of the miserable places, the prisoners all have the hearts of jumping into the river of uncertainty.
Li Ganshun ordered several generals who led the army and asked how they came back? It turned out that after Ximen Qing sent away Ganshun, he gathered all the Xixia prisoners captured in the Battle of Fuzhou and the Battle of Jianning Fort, and then translated by Tongshu. Transmitted the message, Ximen Qing admonished: "You are invaders who violated the power of our Chinese power, and they all have to be punished!" When they heard this, the captives felt cold and thought that the next one would be a bloody massacre. .
However, Ximen Qingfeng turned around and said, "But - the only one who provoked the invasion was only a few nobles among your party Xiang people. You were all helpless and tied to the battlefield. Today, Xixia Kingdom has died due to years of fighting. The wounded are half of them, the people are trapped in the collection, the financial resources are not given, the farmer is abandoned, the weaving is abandoned, the country is already desolate. If you kill you young and middle-aged people again, it is equivalent to destroying the blood of the Western Xia country. Poor your parents, your wives and children leaning against the door and looking away, crying blood in their eyes, which is really a virtue of hurting God's life..."
Hearing this, all the prisoners knelt down and cried loudly.
Finally, after waiting for the more than 10,000 people to cry, Ximen Qing continued: "There are major wars between the two countries, small wars, life wars, death wars, and absolute wars. Although Xixia is a grudge against China However, Erzu naturally became China in his early years, and was also a Chinese lineage. Brothers and sisters fought each other and were not even as strong as a death-death battle! Therefore, today he returned to the sheath of his knife and let him go back to rest assured his parents, wife and children. !”
When the captives heard this, they all kowtowed and shouted: "My kindness of Ximen, I dare not violate the power of the tiger again!"
Li Ganshun frowned when he heard this - Fan Zhongyan, a famous minister of the Song Dynasty, guarded Yanzhou and was in power in Xixia. Dangxiang people all respectfully called him "Longtu Laozi". Unexpectedly, Ximen Qing inherited the power of his predecessors today and became "Ximen Laozi".
The father felt very bad when he walked out of the ground. Li Ganshun suppressed his displeasure and asked, "Have all the people back?"
The leader general said: "Apart from those who were injured and unable to move, all of them are back! Ximen Lao Tzu said that after the injured are cured, they will be released one after another. There is also the body of Your Excellency Jing Si who died in the battle at the city of Fuzhou, Ximen Lao Tzu Returned too!”
There is one on the left and one on the right. Li Ganshun's heart was full of knots and the other on the west. But he didn't want to punish these people - if he had the ability, he would defeat Ximen Qing in front of the formation, and would only expose his own defeated troops. The tiger skin and sheep are of a sheep, and the phoenix feathers and chicken gallbladder are in vain to be the king of a country.
Sighing and waved his hand to make everyone retreat. Li Ganshun was stunned for a long time and suddenly smiled bitterly - Ximen Qing returned these prisoners, which not only greatly weakened his morale, but also saved him the food to support so many people. , It's really a good plan!
Thinking about the fact that when his brother Cha Ge sent Song back, he said that Ximen Qing would become a great enemy of Xixia. He still wanted to believe it at that time. Today, he personally learned about it and realized how powerful he was.
The scholars have no intention of fighting, and there are civil strife in the state. Li Ganshun finally knew that this battle could not be fought! Fortunately, Ximen Qing seemed to have no intention of chasing him, so let's go back to Xingqing Mansion tomorrow!
The next day, Li Ganshun rectified the remnants of the army and returned to the capital. Before leaving, he could not help but reminded the guards of the Zuoxiang Shenwang Army and Yinzhou to keep the country's gates. Both generals said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty! Is it only the Han people who guard the territory. The hero, I, Daxia, will there be no warriors? If the Han barbarians attack, they will definitely be told to be without a return!" Li Ganshun nodded happily when he heard this.
On the way back to the army, Li Ganshun was also recalling the conversation with Ximen Qing. When he talked about the way to govern the country in his words, the establishment of his system, the selection of officials, and the arrangement of laws... all of them were crazy and absurd. , ridiculously, Li Ganshun had never heard of such a country, and his first feeling was like a castle in the air.
But - Ximen Qing is a great man, is his philosophy of governing the country as crazy as he says? After the initial sneer, Li Ganshun finally fell into deep thought...
Li Ganshun was an emperor who was brave in reform in Xixia. After ascending the throne, he was committed to promoting sinicization and changing foreign customs in the country, with remarkable results. In the eyes of stubborn and conservative, Ganshun himself was a rebellious crazy person. He saw Ximen Qing's After "crazy", Gan Shun was shocked and ashamed of being inferior, he actually felt more about mutual appreciation. Perhaps because of this, Li Ganshun was willing to carefully consider Ximen Qing's new policy...
Finally returned to Xingqing Prefecture. All civil and military officials were reported and went out of the city to welcome them twenty miles away. Li Ganshun stepped forward to help the leading Xiang Feihu Li Huamei: "I have worked hard in the capital these days... That Where are people?"
Li Huamei was radiant and said, "It's not hard work! It's just that my man is crazy and doesn't averse to such flashy scenes, so he has to hide in the city!"
Gan Shun nodded with a smile: "Okay! Today's family dinner, bring him to see me. He has kindness to me, so I should respect and thank you very much!"
Although Li Huamei nodded seriously, during the family banquet, not only Yan Qingyu did not come, but Xiang Feihu had wings and flew away. Li Ganshun couldn't help but sighed: "It turns out that a woman is a big girl, but she is not a big one! I didn't expect that Yumei is also a guy who is slutty inside and out!" This is a later story, so I won’t say it.
Everyone welcomed Li Ganshun into the city. Everyone knew that His Majesty the Emperor had just lost the battle and was not angry, so no one dared to say anything. Li Ganshun sat back on his dragon throne, asked a few words about the people's livelihood and the country, and then said: "The Prince and Jin Where is the king?"
The people below quickly reported: "Both of them are waiting for the crime in the mansion."
Li Ganshun waved his hand: "It's said that they came to the palace to meet!" As he said that, he waved his ministers and sat behind the Imperial Palace and was lucky.
Brother Cha and Li Renai entered the hall. Before they could kneel down, Li Ganshun sneered: "You two are so brave!"
The prince's eyes stumbled. Seeing that the prince's aunt Li Huamei was not there, he immediately flattened his mouth and started crying in sobs, just like a child who missed the candy on his mouth and suffered so much grievance.
But Brother Cha leaned over and bowed down: "My brother was sentenced to death!"
Prince Li Renai also knelt down quickly and walked forward: "The father thought that he was young and ignorant, so let me spare this!" As he said that, he reached out to hug Li Ganshun's calves.
Li Ganshun stretched his toes on his son's forehead and kicked him back and threw him out, then sneered: "You rebellious son, your father has just lost his troops and disappeared, and there is still a strong enemy in the face, so you can't wait to succeed you ! At the same time, I also cut off my vassals and military power to my uncle - you are so cruel and ruthless, even if you use the opportunity to plead, I will not be surprised!"
After hearing this, the prince did not dare to step forward, but just kowtowed and said, "The child was just confused for a moment. How dare he be disheartened and offended his father?"
Gan Shun snorted coldly, "Forget it! If you are thrown into the bandit group, you can become a bandit. But if you let you hold the country, it is still far from it! Duh! Still not leaving me? Go by yourself Let’s take the family rules of our ancestors in front of the ancestral temple!”
The prince was overjoyed when he heard this. He was punished with a serious crime, and he only took a few bloody boards. He really took advantage of it. He kowtowed quickly and rolled and ran away.
After sending the prince, Li Ganshun looked at Brother Cha who said coldly, and said for a long time, "If it weren't for Ximen Qing, you would have been killed today, and you will never be forgiven!" This is exactly:
Treat the tiger with good bow and map, and cultivate the sword to control the flying dragon. But I don’t know what happens next, so I will listen to the next breakdown.
