2. Whip Corpse Li Wanrong
Li Nai cried with a sad face, thinking that if he didn't admit it, he would be beaten to death by his father.
But if he admits that it may be that he was surly and was proud to leak the entire strategy when he was prostituting a prostitute, his father would immediately draw his sword and kill him.
So Li Nai was ummy, his fingers were drawn, and he couldn't tell what it was. He was so angry that Li Wanrong was careful and kicked the incompetent person out seven or eight feet away. He could only lie on the ground and roll and moan.
Several confidant generals and officers hurriedly stopped Li Wanrong, saying that the matter had come to this point, and it was meaningless to scold Sima again. "It would be better to transfer letters to Wei Shuai (Tian Xu) and Qing Shuai (Li Shigu), and simply let them lead the army into Bianzhou, frighten the court, and force the court to calm down the affairs."
"Where is Liu Yihuai?" Li Wanrong asked panting.
"Justice Liu is allowed to close the city in Songzhou and refuse to be ordered by the court."
Li Wanrong could only do so.
What disappointed him was that after hearing the news that Gao Yue had marched into the Bian Song Dynasty, Tian Xu and Li Shigu ran faster than rabbits. The 30,000 soldiers who were originally stationed in Dingtao suddenly dispersed: Wei Bo's troops retreated all the way back to the north of the Yellow River and retreated back to the Daming Prefecture of Weizhou; Li Shigu also retreated directly to Lei Ze, watching like a frightened bird for several days. After hearing that Zhang Jianfeng, the governor of Xuzhou in the court, was going to send troops to attack his Yanzhou, and he was so scared that he ran back to Yuncheng. He was in panic all day long.
Soon, Gao Yue, who was stationed in Chenliu, received letters from Tian Xu and Li Shigu.
Although Tian Xu's tone was still a bit stubborn, he actually praised Gao Yue's meritorious service for pacifying Huaixi, and said that the Cai thief was destroyed and it was meaningless to lead the army south again, so he retreated to Weizhou and stayed at his own territory. This is actually equivalent to losing sincerity to the court;
Li Shigu was even more humble in his tone of Gao Yue. He not only asked the court not to conquer him, but also said that he would immediately ask the Gao Zhonglang to send him a disciplinary inspection envoy to "set two taxes" for the ten states under my jurisdiction. This year, I will pay the tax on time and live up to the promise I had with Zhonglang in the past.
There was nothing wrong with Wei Shuai and Qing Shuai. They both arrogantly wanted to go to heaven; but when they really encountered something, they ran faster than rabbits.
Now Li Wanrong is completely isolated.
When Liu Yihuai learned that Li Wanrong's reaction was furious and cursed: "I didn't expect Li Wanrong to sell me!" So he really closed the city and sent the military officers to Gaoyue's camp. He turned around and gave Li Wanrong the leader, saying that the head of Wu Shaocheng was completely planned by Li Wanrong and Li Nai and his son, and he was just an accomplice.
Five days later, Gao Yue's cavalry approached Laoqiu, fifty miles north of Chenliu, Ming Huaiyi, and Miyuan's war horses had already been drinking water from Pipagou, only about ten miles away from Bianzhou Military City.
At dusk, a soldier suddenly shouted in the market in Xili: "The soldiers of the imperial court minister Gao Yue have entered the city!"
Suddenly, the military camps, the Yajian Court and the Yajian Office were all in chaos. Li Wanrong was furious and wanted to summon Yajian soldiers to kill the soldiers who were shouting and spreading rumors. The gatekeepers could report: "Han Hong, the military envoy, has arrived at the Military Supervisor, and led the military envoy, Ju Wenzhen and the imperial envoy Meng Guangcheng, to come to arrest the Jiexia."
"I'm dead." Li Wanrong was desperate, "But I must not die at the hands of Shu Zi Han Hong and Xing Yu's eunuch."
After saying that, Li Wanrong drew his sword, stabbed into his mouth, and immediately retreated from the stairs, landed backwards in the courtyard, and died of anger.
At this time, when the Xuanwuya soldiers in the military government arrived, they saw that the Jiedushi had already died of a sword. They were so quick that they raised Li Wanrong's remains like an ant who discovered the corpse of a locust, shouting that the traitor Li Wanrong had been forced to be punished by us, and then rushed to the front of the military gate to welcome Han Hong and Ju Wenzhen.
After Han Hong confirmed the identity of the dead body, he asked anxiously: "Where is Li Nai!"
The soldiers shouted, "Please follow us and catch the thief Li Nai." After that, everyone fought bravely and took the lead. They surrounded the entire military city office, digging three feet of the ground, and finally pulled out the trembling Li Nai behind the stable and handed it to Han Hong.
Han Hong told Ju Wenzhen that although Li Wanrong committed suicide due to fear of crime, his son was still alive and asked the military supervisor to deal with it.
"Enter him to the camp of the high school nurse." Ju Wenzhen ordered.
At the time of the morning, Li Nai had his hair disheveled, tied with ropes, and knelt in front of Gao Yue, the old Qiu camp.
"Master!" Li Nai saw Gao Yue, tears rushing down like a spring, and he kept kowtowing.
When you came to Bianzhou, my father entrusted me to you, and you also said you would treat me and my biological son like you. Could it be that you forgot?
But the so-called "Master" looked stern and said, "Everything Li Wanrong's contradicted the party's van to the capital, and the law is followed!" Then, Li Nai let out a loud shout, but he was still sent into the van. The ones who went to Beijing with him were Li Wanrong's confidant generals Li Zhan, Yi Lou Yue and others.
As for Li Wanrong's body, he was also sent to Laoqiu Camp.
Liu Chang, who hated Li Wanrong deeply, rushed over and held a whip in person, whipped Li Wanrong's body dozens of times in public, until it was beyond recognition, and then he stopped.
The next day, Xuanwu soldiers knelt on the top of the city of Bianzhou, and begged Gao Yue, Liu Chang, and Qu Huan, who were lined up at the Tongji Qukou below the city, saying that Li Wanrong had been executed, and asked his grandfather to forgive Xuanwu's army and to preside over Han Hong in charge of the military office's subordinates' affairs.
But Gao Yue firmly disagreed, "From now on, the governor of Xuanwu Army must be given the court ministers."
When the stalemate was over, the military commander Ju Wenzhen also left Bianzhou City and came to the camp to discuss the matter with Gao Yue.
"The Xuanwu Army is arrogant and difficult to control, and it should be on the main canal transportation road. If the native warriors on Henan Road hold flags, there may be another disturbance." Gao Yue's opinion was very clear.
"After that being said, the group of Xuanwuya soldiers saw that Li Wanrong and his son ended up in the end, and were afraid that the court would settle them, so..." Ju Wenzhen also expressed his worries in his heart.
In fact, there was not much food in Gaoyue Camp at this time. Now, the power to pacify Huaixi made Xuanwu army silent. However, it would be unrealistic to attack Biancheng. He said to Ju Wenzhen at this moment: "Please go back and tell the Xuanwu army that Han Hongke will succeed as the envoy of the military. I asked the court to choose a kind and forgiving minister to come out to defend Biansong, and they can be assured as they can."
"Who is Ji Gong straightforward? It's better to make Xuanwu Town stable as soon as possible. But Liu Shining must not. If he returns, he will only directly incite a mutiny."
Gao Yue then said, "How is Dong Jin, the governor of Shandong Dongdao?"
If Dong Jin came to Bian and Song dynasties, he would have naturally let Yu Di take over Shandong East Road.
Ju Wenzhen frowned and said, "Mr. Dong seems to be too gentle, how can he suppress these wolves, tigers and leopards?"
"With both hardness and softness, I asked the military supervisor to assist Dong Gong." Gao Yue replied.
Sure enough, when Ju Wenzhen returned to the city and conveyed Gao Yue's proposal, the Xuanwu soldiers were ecstatic again, saying that we had long missed Gong Dong, like withered grains and hoped for the spring rain. From then on, we were willing to serve the country with Dong Gong's honor!
This happy atmosphere soon spread to Songzhou.
