The young man who counterattacked too much - Gao Yang
Appendix 4: (21) Hou Jing's rebellion forced Liangshan
Hou Jing, who had been beaten by Murong Shaozong with only 800 remnants of soldiers, was in the lowest mood of his life at the moment. Just a few months ago, he was the mighty king of Henan, sitting on 100,000 male soldiers. Now I don't even have an inch of shelter!
Just when he was six gods and no master, the heavens sent a small person, Liu Shenmao, to guide him. Liu Shenmao was a subordinate of Shi Weidian (the son of the daimyō general Wei Rui) who was the acting assassin of Zhenshou Shouyang (present-day Shou County, Anhui).
Unpopular with the leadership (which was not tolerated by Wei Dian, the governor of Jianzhou), Liu Shenmao decided to bet his treasure on Hou Jing's potential stock.
If he knew that he had died a miserable death in the end (Hou Jing used a knife to cut from the foot to the head, cut into many pieces, like sashimi), maybe he would change his mind, maybe the people of Jiangnan would have less of a terrible disaster.
Unfortunately, he didn't know, so he actively gave Advice to Hou Jing.
Liu Shenmao: "Before Shouyang stabbed Shi Yuanming, he was still locked up in Eastern Wei. Wei Di is a guest actor, in fact, Shouyang is a borderland, it is better to say hello to Wei Di and you will take your place. ”
Hou Jing was a little hesitant: I don't know Wei Yan and I don't know, let alone want a city, not a cigarette.
Liu Shenmao added a fire: "Go, Brother Jing, I have already helped you find a relationship before I came, it is very hard." ”
Hou Jing's eyes lit up: "You told the high-level figures?" ”
"Not really, I worshipped Guanyin Bodhisattva in the morning."
Hou Jing listened and wanted to hit people. However, he had no other choice, so he sent his own strategist Xu Siyu into the city to try his luck.
Xu Siyu is a super big fool, with a good mouth, his mouth can make the rooster lay eggs, and the sow give birth to monkeys. After bitter persuasion, Wei Di opened the city gate and welcomed Hou Jing into the city.
Hou Jing, who entered the city, immediately turned his face, sent people to guard all the city gates, and threatened to kill Wei Dian, frightening Wei Dian into begging for forgiveness. Hou Jing accepted it when he saw it was good, and immediately pardoned Wei Yan and talked to him about wine. The city fell into Hou Jing's hands.
Although he entered the city, Hou Jing was still extremely unreliable in his heart, and without permission, he took a city by himself, and Emperor Wu of Liang became angry and sent troops to surround and suppress it, and he was sure of his doom. Therefore, he immediately wrote to Emperor Wu of Liang to apologize.
In fact, he had no need to worry at all, because Emperor Wu of Liang was a well-known bodhisattva, and not only immediately appointed Hou Jing as the pastor of Southern Yu Prefecture, but also sent people to send a large amount of money to comfort Hou Jing.
Everyone may feel a little awkward when you look at it, yes, Mu is the title of the Han Dynasty, and the Liang Dynasty should be called the History of Thorns. However, we say that this is really not the original creation of Emperor Wu of Liang, Northern Qi also has it, and Gao Yue was named Sizhou Mu by Gao Yang. Is there a great god who can popularize science?
For this strange official position, Hou Jing did not mind at all, and also wrote a long letter to Emperor Wu of Liang, to the effect of: "Thank you Brother Di for your concern, now that the housing is solved, the work is solved, the food is full, the clothes are warm; as the saying goes, I am full of warmth and lust, and I am now afraid of adultery." See if Di Ge can help solve his personal problems and ask for a daughter-in-law in the Wang and Xie families (Jing please marry Wang and Xie). It's really embarrassing to bother you so much. Would love to visit and thank you for a striptease in person! ”
Emperor Wu of Liang wrote back: "I thank you for your eight generations of ancestors, don't come over, the taste is too heavy, Lao Tzu can't eat it." It is the obligation of married people to help single dogs find a partner, and you should not be too polite. But your level is too low to be worthy of Wang and Xie. You can choose from the surnames below Zhu and Zhang (Wang Xiemen Gao is not even, you can visit them below Zhu Zhang). ”
Insert a paragraph: At that time, the Wang and Xie families belonged to the top magnates, and the Zhu, Zhang, Gu, and Lu clans of Wu County were local celebrities in Jiangnan, known as the "Wu Four Surnames", which belonged to the second rank.
Hou Jing always considered himself a big man, slightly lower than the emperor (the late Northern Wei and Eastern Wei were puppet emperors, and their status would not be particularly high. Hou Jing was Emperor Tu in Henan).
Now I see that I am not only unworthy of Wang and Xie, but also below Zhu Zhang. The heart was cold and cold, and he said with hatred: "I will use Wu's children as slaves."
However, not marrying a wife only made Hou Jing hold a grudge in his heart, and the Northern Wei and Southern Liang families talked about peace, which really made Hou Jing have a plan to rebel.
Gao Cheng defeated Southern Liang's 100,000-strong army and captured a long list of Liang generals, fearing that Southern Liang would wait for an opportunity to retaliate. On his side, he also faced the challenge of Western Wei and did not want to be attacked on both sides, so he sent emissaries to reconcile with Liang Chaoyan.
Emperor Wu of Liang was a little hesitant, and Gao Cheng immediately added a fire and asked Xiao Yuanming to write a letter to Emperor Wu of Liang.
Xiao Yuanming praised Gao Cheng for a good meal: Cheng Zongren is particularly good, like my brothers, I have a cool and crooked life here, eat barbecue every day, drink two pot heads, smoke yellow Nanjing, cool! Just a little homesick. If our two countries can reconcile, you will soon see your nephew.
After reading the letter, Emperor Liangwu couldn't help but burst into tears: "This is love, and it is not clear to say." ”
The favored minister Zhu Yi was good at observing the color of speech, and immediately said: "Emperor Zong, let's talk to Eastern Wei about peace."
Another close confidant, Fu Qi, a Zhongshu She, objected, believing that it would anger Hou Jing and lead to disaster (Jing Yi was uneasy and would try to cause trouble).
Zhu Yi insisted on peace: "How can Hou Jing be compared with the emperor's nephew?" ”
Emperor Wu of Liang eventually adopted Zhu Yi's advice and decided to make peace with Eastern Wei.
When the emissaries of Eastern Wei passed through Shouyang, they were intercepted by Hou Jing, the spy king, and after inquiring about the situation, Hou Jing was shocked and immediately sent a table to Emperor Wu of Liang, strongly dissuading Emperor Liang, and saying that he was ready to go north at any time.
At the same time, he also sent Zhu Yi three hundred taels of gold and asked Zhu Yi to help him say good things.
Zhu Yi accepted the gold, but did not help Hou Jing. However, Zhu Yi is indeed a noble person in Hou Jing's life, and he helped Hou Jing in the front, so it can be said that without Zhu Yi, there would be no Hou Jing today. In the future, I will continue to help, and then continue to help, although it is unintentional.
Next, Hou Jing continued to write letters, Emperor Wu of Liang comforted, then wrote letters, and then comforted.
Emperor Wu of Liang was also annoyed later: "I am the Nine-Five-Year-Old, and I only smoke the Nine-Five-Five-Year-Old, don't I mean talking?" You don't have to write any more letters in the future, don't bother to read them. ”
(How can this Lord be lost in one thing!) Want to get this heart deeply, do not work hard to recover and enlighten)
Since you are not allowed to write another letter, is it not counted?
That's not Hou Jing's style. It was his specialty, and he had changed his letter before, and it took him to take down a city without a single shot. This time is no exception.
Hou Jing forged a letter from Eastern Wei and sent it to Emperor Wu of Liang, saying that he was going to exchange Xiao Yuanming for Hou Jing.
Emperor Wu of Liang, who received the letter, was a little moved.
Fu Qi objected: "Hou Jing surrendered, we have abandoned him now, how will the people of the world look at us in the future?" Moreover, Hou Jing had experienced hundreds of battles, how could he be tied up and captured? ”
Zhu Yi and the others vigorously encouraged Emperor Liangwu: "Just by virtue of Hou Jing's ten or so individuals, seven or eight guns, what tricks can they play?" Summoned him with a messenger."
After Emperor Wu of Liang listened, he nodded his head and snapped his fingers: "Prepare the contract immediately."
When Hou Jing saw Emperor Liangwu's reply: "Xiao Yuanming returned in the morning, and sent Hou Jing to you in the afternoon (Zhenyang Danzhi, Hou Jingxi returned)"
I couldn't help but grit my teeth: "I know that this erhu old man is a thin and widowed person." (I know that Wu's husband is thin-hearted)"
Hou Jing's confidant Wang Wei, who was also extremely cold at this moment, advised Hou Jing: "In the past three hundred years, a total of five hundred and thirty-eight people have been killed by letters. ”
Hou Jing was silent for a while, and nodded his head hatefully: "Dry! ”
