Chapter 14 Jiang Yingyue ()

In December of the second year of Yongyuan, King Ming was appointed as the Chief of the Water Commander of Jin. He went west to Jiangzhou. Dingchou, and crossed the river and attacked Jiangzhou at night. He drove him to the river. Dingmao and Duke Xuanwu held a banquet to celebrate and celebrate until late at night. At that time, the bright moon reflected the river and the waves lingered. The King Ming was moved by the scene and played a song of Huqin, and the sound was heard. After the song, everyone burst into tears and sighed.

-------- Introduction Excerpt

"What a great moon! It's just a pity that there is no Zeng Xuping's Erhu." Yuan Qiao, standing on the Jiangzhou city tower, looked at the Haohao Yinyue on the river not far away, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

It was also the day when the moon was full and the moon was the same. It was also the color of the river and the moon. It was also the tower of Wangjiang City in the south of the city. Duke Huan held a banquet to celebrate the victory in Jiangzhou. Everyone drank and talked until late at night. Later, Zeng Xuping, who was always surprised, suddenly took out a second-string zither that he had never seen before, and used a bow string to start playing a song that no one had heard before.

Yuan Qiao still feels that the song is still surrounded by his ears.

First, there was a long sigh, like the cry of a newborn baby, or the sigh of an old man, traveling through time and space, through the two extremes of life and death, echoing back and forth in a person's heart. The following song was like a spring whimpering in the dark, tortuous, deep, and rugged valleys, and like the footsteps of a boatman on the edge of the river. Although it was full of suffering and hardship, it was continuing to move forward unswervingly.

Yuan Qiao sometimes felt the breeze and the moon, sometimes felt the falling flowers and water, sometimes felt the lightning and thunder, sometimes felt the wind and rain. He always thought that he had read the scriptures, was well-versed in history, and saw through the worldly style of life. But that night, Yuan Qiao realized that his previous knowledge was so shallow that he could not use any verses to describe this song that he had never heard before, and he also realized that he was so sentimental that he was easily shocked by a song from his soul and bones.

When Yuan Qiao saw that all the listeners, including Huan Wen, burst into tears and couldn't help but see Zeng Hua crying but laughing passionately, he realized that what he heard was not only an unprecedented song, but also a song that penetrated people's hearts.

That kind of gentleness, that kind of lingering, that kind of gloom, that kind of unwillingness to give up, and that kind of sorrow that makes people see the suffering of the world, and makes everyone present suddenly think of the hatred of the country and the suffering of partial peace.

"It's such a song of nature." Yuan Qiao said to Sun Sheng, the army officer behind him.

Sun Sheng, who was left to assist Yuan Qiao, was lucky enough to attend the celebration meeting on the fifteenth of last month and also heard Zeng Hua's erhu solo concert. So he replied resonantly: "Yes, Lord Yuan. I didn't expect that I could still hear such music in my life. Jiang Yingyue, a song by Zeng Qianjun, told all the difficulties in this world."

Zeng Hua played the famous modern Erhu song "Erquan Yingyue".

Zeng Hua's grandfather didn't know a single word, but since he returned from Beijing after attending the 7,000-person conference, he became the most loyal "Beijing Silk" and loved Peking Opera. In order to facilitate his part, Zeng Hua's grandfather made full use of his own resources to let his children who were "smart" learn erhu and Jinghu one by one. In the end, this glorious tradition was accidentally inherited by Zeng Hua, who was more "smart" and Zeng Hua was the special piano player for a long time. Later, his grandfather's Beijing accent was still full of Hunan style, but Zeng Hua's erhu level improved by leaps and bounds, which is also the reason why Zeng Hua was able to get the "family-born Jade Pendant" and could enter and exit the office of a commander of a certain agricultural reclamation division in Xinjiang at will.

At the celebration banquet, Zeng Hua saw the bright moon rising in the river, and couldn't help but think of his "bizarre life experience". He thought of his relatives who were destined to never see again, and he couldn't help but feel sad from the bottom of his heart. After drinking a few more glasses of water and wine, he saw this picturesque country, but he couldn't help but think of the Chinese nation, the dark Central Plains and the struggling residents there.

Zeng Hua took out the erhu that had been successfully produced after many experiments, and then picked up "Erquan Yingyue". Hearing the crying sound of the piano, Zeng Hua's heart moved with the sound. Perhaps only after suffering can there be glory, perhaps this is just the darkest dawn of the Chinese nation. Zeng Hua injected his deep thoughts and feelings into the song, which was renamed "Jiang Yingyue". The sitting figures, the sad sound of the piano, the bright full moon, and the endless flowing river water seemed to solidify together at that moment. Zeng Hua not only moved himself, but also others.

Everyone has experienced the unwavering pursuit of their "self", the nation, and the country's suffering expressed by Zeng Hua in the sound of the piano, and their unwavering pursuit of their bright future.

Yuan Qiao and Sun Sheng were still seeing Jing Siqin there, but one of them walked up to interrupt their thoughts.

"Report to Lord Yuan! According to the spies, a large number of Shu troops entered Deyang from Guanghan (now Shehongnan, Sichuan) (now Suiningnan, Sichuan)." The report was Qu Hong, the leader of Xu Hu, the former governor of Shu Jingzhou. Since Yuan Qiao sent all the leaders of Fuling and Brazilian clans led by Xu Hu to Jiangling to "see the court rewards", many local scholars who had previously relied on them recognized the situation and expressed their loyalty to the court and Yuan Qiao. Qu Hong was one of the more capable and highly valued by Yuan Qiao.

With the help of Qu Hong and others, Yuan Qiao quickly took control of Jiangzhou and Brazilian counties. Because Zeng Hua attacked Gaojiazhuang at night, he was wrong. It was like a heavenly soldier coming. Tens of thousands of Jiangzhou Shu soldiers surrendered with their superiors before they could start fighting. The food and grass that Xu Hu had been hoarding for all his efforts fell into the hands of the Jin army.

Therefore, Yuan Qiao could not only select 5,000 more elite Shu army and his rear army to form an army of nearly 10,000 people, but also provide food and supplies for the westward expedition army, while calmly launching a cover attack in the direction of Chengdu.

The resourceful Yuan Qiao not only blatantly attacked the Jiangzhou city towers of Huan Wen, Zhou Fu, Sima Wuji, Zeng Hua and other heroes, but also sent edicts to surrender in the name of Huan Wen. He first surrendered to the Fuling County City (now Pengshui, Chongqing), which was an isolated city, and then sent people to directly seize the important town of Sanjiang - Dianjiang. Dangqu County, the birthplace of the Li family in the pseudo-Shu, was cut off from contact.

Yuan Qiao divided the nearly 10,000 troops in his hand into several groups. During the day, he ran to Dianjiang from the heavily guarded northern gate of Jiangzhou, and quietly returned from the current at night. He often changed into different flags, making it impossible for many spies from the pseudo-Shu to leave Jiangzhou and enter Dianjiang. As a result, the news reached Chengdu, and it turned out that the Jin army gathered more than 100,000 troops, intending to besiege Deyang, and then went straight to Chengdu.

Yuan Qiao was so thrilling in Jiangzhou that Li Shi from Chengdu naturally did not dare to neglect him. He drew out his troops from all over the place, gathered more than 50,000 people, and sent them to Guanghan and Deyang to guard the front lines of Guanghan and Deyang. He refused to allow the Jin army to go further west and vowed to defend the Li family's thousands of miles of land.

"Okay!" Yuan Qiao immediately recovered from the memories of Raoliang Sanyue when he heard Qu Hong's report. He nodded slightly with his beard and then said to Qu Hong: "Chang Sheng, do you want to make a great contribution?"

Qu Hong laughed loudly, and quickly knelt down on one leg, clasped his fists and said, "It depends on the support of the adults, and the villains go out of the fire and come from the water, and they all follow it."

"Okay, I will transfer you two thousand troops and immediately go up the Han River (Jialing River) and take Anhan (now Nanchong, Sichuan). Now all the pseudo-Shu troops are concentrated in Deyang and Guanghan, and I have ignored Anhan east of the Fu River. This credit is really given to you by God."

Qu Hong immediately made a bold statement, even if An Han had ten Chengdu city highs, he would try his best to take it down.

After Qu Hong left, Sun Sheng asked Yuan Qiao: "Master Yuan, why didn't you pretend to attack Deyang but divide your troops to capture Anhan?"

"The pseudo-Shu now thinks that I have tens of thousands of elite troops stationed in Jiangzhou and Dianjiang, intending to take Deyang and Guanghan into Chengdu. He has moved his troops to guard the Fushui line, and our goal of covering Duke Huan's attack on the southern route has also been achieved. However, at a critical moment, we must play the trick to the end and continue to put pressure on the pseudo-Shu on the eastern line. We have less than 10,000 troops. If we take Deyang directly, even if we attack, it is possible to expose the stuff in front of tens of thousands of Shu troops. It is better to take the empty Anhan. In this way, we can continue to hide our purpose and strength, and secondly, to give the pseudo-Shu monarch and ministers a illusion, that is, we have strong troops and are ready to calmly clean up the outer periphery of the eastern line before attacking the Fushui line." Yuan Qiao explained with a smile.

"Mr. Yuan is very proud. If this happens, it will put even more pressure on Chengdu." Sun Shengfu praised.

Yuan Qiao smiled slightly, but turned to look west, thinking in her heart: "I wonder where Duke Huan has been? There is also Zeng Qianjun. What kind of surprise will he bring to us this time?"

At the end of the first month of the third year of Yonghe, Li Shi in Chengdu received news of An Han's fall. Although Li Shi knew that An Han, who had only hundreds of veterans and soldiers, was basically abandoned, and it was no big deal to fall. However, the news revealed by this news made Li Shi and his ministers realize that the fierce attack of the Jin army from the east was about to begin.

Since the sudden fall of Jiangzhou, the attention of Shu people has been attracted to the east. Shu Kingdom, which has been relatively peaceful for decades, finally ushered in the biggest war. Although many people think that the army from the east is a "king army", the war is ruthless. The people of Shu Kingdom have long known this from the mouths of refugees who poured into the north. Therefore, the people of Shu Kingdom were extremely complicated to wait for the coming storm. However, the families of Shu families who were already tied closely to the Li family responded to the call of the "Emperor" to gather troops to prepare for the war, but secretly made some other preparations. As the saying goes, a red heart and two hands are prepared.

Li Shi didn't know why the Jin army was so high-profile in the west. He probably didn't dare to attack the big tiger in the north, so he ran to pinch his little rabbit in the west. I was not easy to mess with. I also had 70,000 or 80,000 people in my hand, and they were not for watching cattle and herding pigs! But he knew that the Jin army was coming in a fierce manner this time, first attacking Jiangzhou and Dianjiang, then gathering troops, then sweeping all the places east of Fushui, and finally attacking Fushui and taking Chengdu. Seeing the changes in the situation over the past month, the entire strategic deployment of the Jin army is now very clear. After Li Shi understood these, he felt more at ease. From Deyang to Chengdu in the east, there were not only Fushui and Niulihui (Tuojiang River) natural dangers, but also countless mountains and steep cliffs, and he had already laid heavy troops. He was not afraid of how many Jin army came, but also afraid that your Jin army would not come.

Just as Li Shi was full of confidence and was preparing to deploy a great defense battle in Chengdu to completely crush the Jin army invasion in the east, a fast horse rushed in from the south gate of Chengdu to the "Palace Gate".

The messenger in a torn clothes turned over and dismounted, rolled and crawled to the "Zhenghua Gate", holding a battle report in his right hand that could be "compared to" his clothes, and shouted loudly: "Urgent Military Report! Jiangyang County fell! Nan'an fell! Jin army has arrived in Qingyi River!"

"On the 16th day of the first lunar month, the front army of the Jin army attacked the Jiangzhou army and tricked into Jiangyang County (now Luzhou, Sichuan). Suddenly, the city shouted that the Jin Changshui Captain had led the front army to restore Jiangyang. The defenders were unable to reach the end and fled in all directions. The county magistrate Shan Bo was captured, and the county magistrate Gu Hu was killed in the city, and only escaped from the Gongcao Shi Zhangpin. Before dawn, the front army of the Jin army left Jiangyang County and rushed 500 miles in three days and three nights, and actually entered Nan'an City first. Zhangpin walked around the city and went to Wuyang to report the military information between the two places. After the army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty had crossed the Qingyi River and stationed in Heshui south of Wuyang (now Shuangjiang Town, Pengshan, Sichuan), intending to glimpse the north. Chen Jian was the county magistrate Li Pu!"

After hearing the eunuch's dirty battle report, Li Shi almost fell to the ground. Are there any problems with the Jin army? If you don't walk on the Fushui Road, why do you have to go up the river and follow the most difficult southern road to Chengdu? Jianwei County Wuyang County is only more than 200 miles away from Chengdu, and it has been hit by the nose. Li Shi realized that he was being fooled by the Jin army.

Attacks in Jiangzhou at night, seized the Dianjiang River, and traveled to Han River (Jialing River). They were all to make the king and his ministers believe that the Jin army would attack Chengdu from the eastern front Fushui River. Who knew that the Jin army was full of madmen, especially the front vanguard, the escort of the water, Zeng Hua, the escort of the water, first crossed the river, attacked Jiangzhou at night, and then took Jiangyang, rushed 500 miles to capture the Qingyi River in Nan'an, and went straight to the hinterland of Chengdu. He was really crazy than a madman! Zeng Hua, the escort of Changshui, was not a general in the Diannong Army before, and was in charge of military farming? He was a farmer, and he must have never read military books! There was no common sense in military tactics! How could he fight like this?

Li Shi felt a little frustrated. The 50,000 heavy troops he had placed in the Fushui line could only give him spiritual support now. Li Shi felt like a boxer ready to go, everything was ready, and he was waiting to give his opponent a accurate and ruthless black tiger Taoxin. Unexpectedly, the opponent did not follow the routine and used a method of changing shapes and shadows to float to his unprepared back.

Li Shi was so angry that his teeth were itchy, and he wanted to bring the culprit. The head commander of the Jin army, Huan Wen, and the vanguard of the Jin army, and the gold medal thug Zeng Hua, dragged them to the front of the hall, beat them so hard that they didn't even recognize his mother, and then chopped them up and fed them to the dog. However, after resentment, the soldiers had to be sent. He couldn't watch the Jin army enter Chengdu, and he ran to the city gate with a rocking stick and a small flag shouting "Welcome! Welcome! Warm welcome!"
