Chapter 1137 Scribe Martyr
The sun was at its peak, and there was a scene of singing and dancing and drinking in the prefect of Changshan. The prefect of Changshan Yan Gaoqing personally held a pot and persuaded him to drink, showing great sincerity to a general with a rough appearance. The chief minister Yuan Luqian also advised the generals to drink one by one, and flattered him. The beautiful maid was shuttled between the mats, and from time to time someone was pulled by the drunken generals to sit down, and he did not care about the occasion. Faced with this scene, Yan Gaoqing, who was the most square in daily life, saw it, but he remained silent.
That was all the official prostitute he called out for purpose.
While drinking, Li Qin, who was invited by Yan Gaoqing from Jingxing Pass, laughed and said, "The great commander is unstoppable and will directly attack Luoyang. At that time, our wealth, honor and glory will be indispensable. Yan Envoy Yuan, Changshi Yuan, and brothers, we congratulate the great commander."
Seeing the generals standing up and congratulating each other, Yan Gaoqing also smiled and drank a glass with a glass. Then he said to Li Qin with regret: "The general is originally a general of Youzhou, but this time he has to guard Jingxing Pass and not attack. Otherwise, if he conquers Luoyang, he will be able to get some credit? I just regret that I, a scholar, have no power to tie up, and can only guard Changshan County for the general."
"Envoy Yan is right, I wish I could fly ahead and follow the general to fight with the general, and I was not happy to guard the small Jingxing Pass Hedong Jiedu Wang Chengye. He was a rabbit. None of the soldiers and horses in Daizhou dared to move. I was so idle and my brothers were idle at the gate. If it weren't for Yan's command to pass the general order of the general, rewarding me and congratulating the good news ahead, I would have to squat in Jingxing Pass."
After Li Qin fell into the bitter scene, he patted Yan Gaoqing's shoulder affectionately and said, "Envoy Yan, you don't have to be discouraged. Although the commander of the Grand Marshal has Yan Zhuang and Gao Shang Zhang Tongru, they are just smart. How can they compare to you? You have made great contributions to guard Changshan County and waited for the Grand Marshal to win the world. I will definitely recommend it to the Grand Marshal and grant you a Shangshu Dangdang."
The declarations of these traitors supporting the prince were indeed just to deceive the world.
Yan Gaoqing was furious, but he only forced a smile on his face, but he became more attentive when he persuaded him to drink. Until time passed by little, all the generals in the hall, including Li Qin, were drunk. He breathed a little relieved and immediately called his confidant servants in and tied up all the people. When Li Qin was about to settle, he stopped the servants who wanted to tie them up. After thinking about it, he said in a deep voice: "Don't keep him, chop off his head."
Yuan Luqian couldn't help but be surprised: "Isn't it better to keep his life? Maybe he can exchange some loyal and kind people who fell into the hands of the rebels."
"A powerful general under An Lushan's command, Ruyun, is nothing like him, and he will not spend any effort on his life or death." Yan Gaoqing still hated Li Qincuo's nonsense just now, and he had already been calculating in his heart. After shook his head, he said in a deep voice, "Although Marshal Du and Marshal Guo jointly passed on a letter, let us wait for the opportunity, if there is no action in Hebei and the old nest of the thief can rest assured, you can calm down and manage the Central Plains. Li Qincuo's subordinates are not elite soldiers, and many of them are temporarily recruited. As long as they hold his head and persuade them to surrender, I believe they will scatter. At that time, the soldiers will not be bloody, and there will be a lot of trouble."
Yuan Luqian suddenly realized that Li Qincui, who had just been chatting and laughing with them, was so confused that he was chopped off by his servants. He just opened his eyes for a moment and volunteered to go to Jingxing Pass to persuade him to surrender, but he didn't expect that Yan Gaoqing had insisted on going there in person and leaving him to guard the prefect's mansion. After a while, he could not persuade the chief officer, so he had to agree, but he still reminded him to be careful when he was on this trip.
In the night, when Yan Gaoqing arrived at Jingxing Pass with his accompanying servants and more than a hundred warriors recruited secretly, the Hebei Pass, which had no leader, seemed very calm.
After arriving, he summoned the brigade coaches and others in the name of Li Qincuo. Suddenly, he declared Li Qincuo's bloody head. Then he ordered the servants and warriors to rise up and take down these intermediate officers. Seeing that many people were still shouting and scolding, he could not scare these people and said that the soldiers in Hedong were already waiting for Jingxing Pass. At this time, except for one or two deadly members, most of them expressed their willingness to surrender. The officers were like this. When the soldiers below learned that the commander was killed, there were strong soldiers outside, the majority of them fled immediately.
It was not until this time that Yan Gaoqing, whose vest was completely sweating, felt relieved. Over the past few days, he had been under too much pressure, and the biggest one was that he was a child of the Yan family but surrendered to the rebels.
Even if he has his current future, he cannot do without An Lushan's recommendation, but how could he be willing to follow the thief with a proud and arrogant attitude? He is different from Zhang Xiancheng, the prefect of Boling County, Dingzhou. Zhang Xiancheng is the son of Zhang Shouqi. After Zhang Shouqi moved left, Zhang Xiancheng, who was mediocre, lost his support. An Lushan gave him a sweet date and immediately climbed up. Now, after the former prefect of Boling was killed, he was willing to guard Boling for An Lushan. His bones were not as soft as Zhang Xiancheng.
Therefore, as soon as he returned to Changshan Prefect's Mansion, Yan Gaoqing immediately summoned Yuan Luqian and the officials who came to serve in the study who were unwilling to surrender to An Lushan. Sitting in the main seat, he heard a wave of uncontrollable surprise and cry out in the study. He raised his hand to signal everyone to stay, and then said in a deep voice: "An thief disregards the holy grace, and all those who are loyal and righteous in Hebei Dao are full of hatred. Now he heard that An Lushan sent someone back to Youzhou to recruit soldiers, and Jia Xun, the fake Fanyang Jiedushi, was overwhelmed because the people were unwilling to rebel. At this time, when will we wait for the first time to raise the banner of righteousness?"
"The envoy is right. If you don't raise the banner of righteousness at this time, the officials, civil and generals and soldiers of Hebei provinces and counties will suffer more." The chief minister Yuan Luqian stood up first and said loudly, "Now that Jingxing Pass has been taken down, we should also issue a proclamation to contact the chief officials of each prefecture and county to raise an army. If Jia Xun and more rebel generals can be correct, the An thief rebels will be destroyed soon."
Both the prefect and the chief minister said this, and the study immediately responded. When drafting the manifesto, Yan Gaoqing personally took the initiative. After he had drafted the hundreds of words, everyone read it. Gaocheng Wei Cui Anshi praised: "It is passionate and cannot be easier to write a word. You are really good at writing."
The other people also praised them one by one, and everyone planned to contact all parties, especially to immediately leave Jingxing Pass to contact Hedong Jiedu Wang Chengye and report that Hebei will raise the banner of righteousness. At this time, Zhang Tongyou, the Neiqiu Chief who escaped from Julu County, Xingzhou alone because he was unwilling to rebel, said, "If you want to report the victory to the court and inspire people, the head of Li Qincuo is too light. When An Lushan first started his army, he sent two generals from Jingxing Pass to Taiyuan and robbed Yang Guang, the deputy guard of Beidu. Now among these two people, Gao Miao is recruiting troops in Youzhou, and it is said that he will return to Luoyang to report to Anzhe. He Qiannian is also coming from Luoyang to Youzhou Gongyu. If these two people can be captured and presented to the court, and at the same time, he will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort. It is just a messenger who will use the means to deal with Li Qincuo again."
Everyone looked at Zhang Tongyou's plan, and finally applauded at the same time. Within the next two days, Yan Gaoqing followed the same trick, and indeed used the same trick to capture the rebel general Gao Miao in Gaocheng and seize the rebel general He Qianli in Liquan Post. When the two were tied up and sent to Changshan Prefect's Mansion at the same time, Yan Gaoqing was about to behead the people and show them the public. After the nitride was made, he immediately sent to Taiyuan. Others tried to persuade him to stay alive, but he refused to listen. In the end, He Qiannian had to take a try in order to survive.
"Envoy Yan, I am following An Lushan to rebel, but with the threat of An Lushan to kill the three clans, I dare not obey the order? Now, since the envoy wants to raise the banner of righteousness, relying on Changshan alone, Li Qin alone, and Gao Miao's heads, can it be exciting? Almost all prefectures and counties in Hebei have fallen, and they want to call on others to cause trouble. Only the envoy will make greater achievements to set an example for everyone. Not to mention, Zhang Xiancheng, the prefect of Boling County, north of Changshan, has only relied on his father Zhang Shouqi's reputation at the beginning, so he became a prefect. Regarding his talent, his talent is not worth it. If the envoy releases the news that 10,000 troops in Hedong have already left Jingxing Pass, Zhang Xiancheng will definitely escape. You must know that his command is just a group of mobs to train troops, and he has no ability to train troops at all."
Although Yan Gaoqing's original intention was to kill someone to establish his authority, he couldn't help but feel moved when He Qiannian talked. Looking around at the other escorts and seeing that everyone had no objection, he laughed and said, "You are so light. If I can take down Boling County so easily, I will spare your life and send you to Chang'an in vain. As for whether Your Majesty will spare you, it depends on your blessing and luck."
When Yan Gaoqing was really scared Zhang Xiancheng to flee without any effort with just a few rumors and seized Boling County, he received another piece of news that surprised and confused him.
A soldier went west to Feihu Xing and had already penetrated into Yizhou.
Although the other party's banner was not clear, Yan Gaoqing keenly realized that if the rebels wanted to return to Youzhou, it would never be possible to emerge from Hedong Road. This might be the army to suppress the rebellion. So, he personally rushed to Boling County, Dingzhou to clean up the endgame left by Zhang Xiancheng, and he didn't even have time to discuss with the Master Mu. He directly sent a few confidant followers to escort his son Yan Quanming to Shanggu County, Yizhou to see if he could contact the army. At the same time, he tried his best to gather Zhang Xiancheng's regiment training. When Cui Anshi was left to guard Boling County, he immediately told him the news when he returned to Changshan to meet Yuan Luqian who was in charge of his affairs.
"It must be the soldiers from Hedong, it must be." Yuan Luqian was also extremely excited. He held Yan Gaoqing's hand tightly and said in a trembling voice, "If it were the Anthill rebels, how could it emerge from Feihu Xing Shen's elusive place?"
"Yes, I think so too, so I asked Quan Ming to come over and contact him personally. If it was really a military force in the court, then all the prefectures and counties in Hebei Road would definitely respond."
Although Yuan Luqian was happy, he heard that Yan Gaoqing had sent his son out. He couldn't help but exclaim: "How can you do this? Your third son Ji Ming has been taken away by An Thief. If you know that I have turned against him, there will be a lot of danger. Although we guess that it is a soldier in Hedong, if there is any possibility..."
