On April 10, the streets and alleys of Tianjing City were discussing such a matter.

It's not the dengtuzi of any family who has caused any trouble, nor the dignitaries who have played the leading role in fengque tower. It's about the war in Northern Xinjiang.

Since Gu fan, the second son of the ancient family, defeated dantai RUOYE, the Marquis of Beisu, in the eight divisions of martial arts, and arrived in Northern Xinjiang, the war report of Northern Xinjiang has been amazing again and again. Many people even assert that as long as the name Gufan appears in the war report, it must not be an ordinary war report.

Sure enough, the battle report sent this time was that fan Suiyang, the commander in chief of Yantian army, and Gu fan, the acting commander of Yunyi department, together designed to annihilate 150000 of the main force of gourong army in Weiyuan City, kill three members of gourong Xingpu rank, and seriously injure Wang aogang, the left wing with the most popularity of gourong army. Aogang fled. 150000 troops were captured and 30000 fled. More than 60% of them were killed. The wounded were not counted.

Such a great victory could not be attributed to the reign of emperor Yaowu Xinghuang. Even in the past 500 years of the Beidou Dynasty, there have been few battles against the barbarians in the four directions. If it can be compared, it is only the battle of "Shangfang Valley" by Hou Guyun of Pingyuan against the he people 15 years ago. It was this battle that greatly weakened the strength of the he people and established the absolute superiority of the Qin heavenly army against the he people in Cangyuan. Laozi is a hero. This father and son are really better than others.

Of course, a lot of people say that this war is also a lot of the credit of the Tiebi Marquis fan Suiyang, but Gu fan is the son of the Pingyuan Marquis, and it's just a war credit. But anyone who hears this will scoff at that person, because as long as he has a little knowledge of the tactics of the Tiebi Marquis fan Suiyang, or who listens to the news carefully, he knows that the tactics of the Tiebi Marquis fan Suiyang are defense, passive defense, such tactics as active attack, trap, ambush elite and kill the enemy general, It can't be put forward by fan Suiyang, the Marquis of iron wall. After all, the country is easy to change, the nature is hard to change, and fan Suiyang, the Marquis of iron wall, has been acting for soldiers for nearly 30 years. It is almost impossible to change. The battle of Weiyuan city must have been carried out by the Yantian army of fan Suiyang, Marquis of Tiebi.

But the most shocking thing is not that Gu fan made great achievements again, but that fan Suiyang, the Marquis of Tiebi, sent a form along with the Jiebao. The content of this form is actually an apology to the Ministry of war!

The reason is that in order to induce Wang aogang, the left wing of the dog army, to go deep into the city, fan Suiyang, the Marquis of iron wall, sacrificed the people of Weiyuan City, resulting in the serious consequences of 50000 civilian casualties. He has not yet caught aogang, but only seriously injured him. He thinks he should bear the responsibility.

For more than 500 years in the Beidou Dynasty, the generals like fan Suiyang, the Marquis of Tiebi, who won the battle and didn't come to ask for credit, but sacrificed a city of people for themselves and asked for a reduction of responsibility, except for those famous generals at the time of the founding of the country, never appeared again. If other military Marquis guarding the border do this, we will think that he is fishing for fame. But the battle in Northern Xinjiang is so brilliant. If the Tiebi Marquis fan Suiyang conceals this, it will be a perfect battle, which can shine forever in history. Therefore, he is not fishing for fame. He wants to win a good impression from the Ministry of war and the emperor Yaowu, But really for the sacrifice of a city of people, feel guilty.

The fastest news in the world is news, but the most powerful one is people's words. Accumulating feathers and sinking boats, accumulating destruction and destroying bones is the power. At this time, the whole city of Tianjing was discussing how the Ministry of war would deal with this great victory in Northern Xinjiang, how to deal with the Tiebi Marquis fan Suiyang who took the initiative to blame, and how to praise the young brave Gu fan? Although Gu fan was only 18 years old, he was undoubtedly among the famous generals of Beidou Dynasty by virtue of this battle.

However, in one day, the storyteller in the teahouse had already made up the storybook and told the story of "Pingkou in Northern Xinjiang" to a group of tea guests.

"All of you, the little Marquis of the ancient family won a big battle in Weiyuan city of Northern Xinjiang a few days ago. Do you all know that?" After that, the storyteller patted his desk and said, "in that war, the young Marquis led the bandits into Weiyuan city and ambushed the army quietly. When the bandits went to attack Weiyuan garrison, the whole city was flooded with 100000 elite soldiers."

"Pa!"

Wake up for a while, the storyteller said: "when it was, it was like a landslide and tsunami in all directions. Everywhere, we didn't shout, we didn't dance flags, we didn't shout. Everywhere, there were our heavenly soldiers and generals. The ancient Marquis was in the lead. He was a white horse and a white horse. When he said it was late, he was quick, and the first fast sword in the capital cut off the head of the generals on the other side."

"Good!"

"Well done When the tea guests heard this, they cried out one by one.

"Good..." when they finished speaking, a weak voice called out again. When a Teaman looked at him, he found that he was a young scholar in a Confucian costume with a Confucian crown. He was followed by a schoolboy. But he had a pretty face and a curved willow eyebrow. He looked like a peerless woman. He could not help but be called strange.

The bookboy lowered his head, got close to the scholar and said in a low voice: "young master... Oh, no, miss... Let's go. What's the point of listening to these storytellers?"

"No... I want to hear about him..." the scholar shook his head slowly, but he put his eyes on the storyteller who told the story of Pingkou in Northern Xinjiang.

"Miss, it's my 50th birthday. Aren't you going to come out and pick out a birthday present for me? This evening is the birthday party. You see, it's almost the end of the year... "The bookboy was obviously a little worried and urged“ All right, Ryu. I'll go shopping. Do you remember to give this gentleman a reward of one or two silver at that time... "The scholar stood up, helped his Confucian crown, and walked out of the teahouse“ Ouch... Ten Wen is enough for a story telling. Is it worth one or two silver? " The bookboy squinted at the cheerful storyteller and couldn't help complaining. Compared with the great victory of the northern Xinjiang against the dog army and the high reputation of Gu fan, the second son of marquis in the plain, the 50 th birthday of marquis Qingshu, the head of Murong family, who was supposed to be very pompous and magnificent, is not so noticeable. But even at the Murong family's birthday party, the topic of discussion was still inseparable from the great victory in Northern Xinjiang and the second son of the ancient family. During the banquet, more careful people found that Mrs. Yujue, who was wearing the dress of Mrs. Gaoming, was sitting on the main table with Qingshu Hou Murong qianhan and Mrs. Gaoming Zhaoyang at the birthday party, and had a good talk with Mrs. Zhaoyang. As a result, people with a heart can quickly think of the marriage between the Murong family and the ancient family before Gu fan went to northern Xinjiang. Although the two sons of the ancient family were not in Tianjing City, it seems that the two families already regard themselves as relatives. Otherwise, Mrs. Yujue of Pingyuan Marquis's house would not be able to sit on the main table, which is unreasonable. The news of the alliance between the ancient family and the Murong family is based on the power accumulated by the Marquis of the plain, who holds a heavy army in Cangyuan, and the active performance of the ancient fan, who has repeatedly made great achievements in war. It can be said that over the past year, the attack on the noble Marquis faction has been one after another. The former leader of the noble Marquis was defeated by Gu fan because of his military performance in the eight divisions, But he wanted to hurt the killer, and was removed from the post of commander-in-chief of the imperial guards by Emperor Yaowu. He forced him to think about his mistakes behind closed doors, which made the situation more and more difficult. Among the four main battle groups, Cangyuan qintian army has always been a civilian marquis. Now Yantian army in Northern Xinjiang has become a civilian Marquis's sphere of influence. After the baptism of these wars, even if the northern Marquis dantai RUOYE returns and regains military power, as long as he can't squeeze the Tiebi Marquis fan Suiyang, it will be difficult to rebuild his prestige in the army, More and more middle-level generals began to fall to civilian factions, and the original organization was extremely eccentric. At this time, the great victory in Northern Xinjiang seemed to be a shot in the arm, stimulating the overall situation and accelerating the development towards the direction of civilian military Marquis faction. The next morning, there was no doubt that how to deal with the great victory in Northern Xinjiang and the issue of Tiebi Marquis fan Suiyang became the focus of debate in the court. Originally, he thought that emperor Yaowu would let the ministers discuss it first and then make a decision. So both the Murong family of the pro civilian faction and the dantai family of the old aristocratic family are ready to fight in the court. Unexpectedly, after Chao Tianrui, Minister of the Ministry of war, reported the incident, Emperor Yaowu nodded and signaled that the eunuch general around him could read the imperial edict. When the imperial edict was finished, in the eyes of all the ministers, Yaowu Xinghuang said across the Pearl curtain, "I thought about yesterday how to reward and punish the people involved in the northern Xinjiang war. You don't have to discuss it any more. Let's take my imperial edict as the criterion“ Yes All the ministers had to say in a respectful voice“ Retreat“ Long live your majesty When all the ministers chanted long live, Emperor Yaowu slowly stood up from the red gold throne, turned around and walked towards the back hall. When Emperor Yaowu left, all his ministers were surprised and disappointed. The officials of the noble Marquis group originally thought that fan Suiyang, the Tiebi Marquis, had such a big problem. It should be an opportunity to pull him down. At least they could send dantai RUOYE, the northern Marquis, to take charge of the army in Northern Xinjiang. However, Murong family, the pro civilian Marquis, regretted that, Gu fan made such a great contribution, but he still couldn't be appointed as marquis. It seems that the reason is that Yaowu Xinghuang intended to check and balance, and didn't want the situation of two marquis in the ancient family of Pingyuan marquis. What's more, it's a pity that Yaowu Xinghuang went against the norm this time. He didn't even give the officials a chance to discuss, so he directly gave the imperial edict, The treatment results of fan Suiyang and Gu fan were published.
