Chapter 279

Wang Hua really didn't think about what was hidden behind this.

He only thought about the effect that so many generals gathered in the blood camp would have. It is possible that they would train them a little bit. There is.

Of course, the idea is good, but when these famous generals get together, how to use the fusion is a problem first.Just like the Galaxy battleship Real Madrid, there are countless famous generals, but they may not necessarily win every battle.Although one is a real battlefield and the other is just football, the reason is similar.

And these people, the reason why they become famous generals are masters of strategy. To put it bluntly, one blink of an eye, two ideas, one step, three strategists.Like Zhang Shougui, but in order to escape responsibility, even his subordinates can frame him.Besides, Xue Song, for the sake of his life, disregarded the court's preferential treatment to Xue's family, and was still the master of rebellion.Besides, what Guo Zhiyun said about Wang Junhuan, he only said that the king was a general, but this general saw that something was wrong, and he watched the Tubo people take his father captive, but he didn't rescue him.It's not that he's cruel, it's for the sake of the overall situation.

None of them are easy to mess with.

Of course, although these people have shown a love for the battlefield since they were young, they are either idle at home (Ge Shuhan), or incapable of writing (Zhang Shougui), or playboys who like to fight and make trouble (Xue Song). Or those who refuse to obey the discipline of their superiors (Wang Junhuan), those who are not in the court (Zhang Xiaosong), or those who are vulgar and ignorant of etiquette (Li Kailuo), the only one who is better is Guo Qianguan.Except for the fact that the old Xue's family didn't know what to think, it is estimated that other people found out to ask for it, not only their chiefs, but even their parents warmly welcomed them.

Wang Hua thought of the gathering of famous generals in the blood battalion in the future, the more he thought about it, the happier he became, and he burst out laughing.

The soldiers laughed so hard that they couldn't figure it out.

This reason cannot be said, it is too evil.He said again: "Everyone come again."

All the heroes from the three mountains and five mountains were included in Wang Hua's list, and more than 200 people were recorded in total.It is impossible for everyone here to be a hero like Ge Shuhan, but at least half of them who can catch the eyes of these blood battalion soldiers are warriors.

After finishing the memorization, Wang Hua was in a good mood and ordered dinner. In fact, he had already flown to Chang'an with all his heart. He wished to see Lao Wu right away, handed the list to Lao Wu and said, "Your Majesty, I don't want to take credit for it either. , you just need to find these people.”

It is impossible for soldiers to eat in such a polite way as when they are feasting in the palace, eating meat and drinking heavily.Some soldiers chased Wang Hua, trying to get him drunk.Skills are not as good as people, so I had to run away.After Li Chiying saw it, he giggled.

After dinner, Xiao Yuzhen pulled Wang Hua to a corner of the barracks, and played a flute to the bright moon.This is something she just learned.

After blowing out the first few musical notes, Wang Hua heard what the music was, "Eighteen Beats of Hujia".

The first thing to appear was poetry, a 290-character Sao style narrative poem written by Cai Wenji.It is a disgrace to be reduced to the Huns and be forced to commit oneself to the barbarians, but after being taken back by Cao Cao, she had to be separated from her two children. This poem was written under such a background. A long lyric song worth appreciating since Qu Yuan's "Li Sao".It's a bit of an exaggeration.But it is indeed an excellent poem. (However, like Li Qiao's "Wind", many editors of ancient poems seem to be unable to see it, which is strange)
In addition to this Hujia Eighteen Beats left by Cai Wenji, there are also "Dongdu Fu", "Hujia Eighteen Beats", and "Poetry of Sadness and Indignation".Her talent was also respected by Cao Cao.In the most famous case, Cao Cao once asked her, "I heard that Madam's family collected a lot of books in the early years, and they were lost during the war. I wonder how many can be recalled?" Cai Yan replied: "There are many books left by my father in the early years. More than 400 volumes have been lost through turmoil, and only about [-] volumes can be recalled now." After returning home, Cai Yan wrote out all the volumes that he could remember, and sent them to Cao Cao's library for checking. , the results are basically free of errors and omissions.

But this poem is also a qin song.Huang Tinglan, a pianist in the Tang Dynasty, was famous for playing this piece.Later, in Li Qi's poem "Listening to Dong Da Playing Hu Jia", there is a sentence: "Cai Nu used to make the sound of Hu Jia, and she played ten to eight beats.

Whether playing or playing this piece, you must pay attention to the different emotions expressed in each beat.

Obviously, this is still a difficulty for Xiao Yuzhen, but Wang Hua can tell that she hopes that he will come back safely, and I am afraid that during this period of time, he often plays this piece.

But she didn't know that once the curtain officially opened in a few years' time, it might be the time when the status of the two of them ended.

Although he knew the cruelty of the political struggle, there must be countless victims among them, but the little girl's feelings for herself, thinking of this, Wang Hua sighed, took the flute from her hand, and said, "Let me play."

The desolate flute sounded, the moon was shining white, and the desolate flute sound brought everyone back to the vast grassland outside the Great Wall in a blink of an eye.

After playing the song, Wang Hua turned around and looked at Xiao Yuzhen. The little girl was resting her chin on her hands and looking at him with her eyes.His eyes were full of admiration and joy.

This kind of expression made Wang Hua feel that he had made an unforgivable mistake.He could only hold her hand lovingly and said, "Go back and rest."

The tents have been packed early, are they really treated the same as soldiers?The guards and eunuchs had brought back the best quilts and incense from Luoyang.But no one said that Yuzhen was specializing. She actually lived with soldiers in a big camp. In this day and age, it was already a remarkable thing.

But the eunuchs were happy, they could tell, Wang Hua's eyes became softer and softer.This is a good thing, the young couple began to "love each other".

Start camping the next day.The speed is very fast and not far away. Lao Wu’s car lasts 20 days and [-] days. It is the emperor’s car. You can’t travel when it’s raining, you can’t travel when the sun is too big, and you can’t travel when it’s too cold.Very slow.But what worries did these soldiers have, and they arrived in Chang'an in just four or five days.Before crossing the Chan River, a group of Habayashi soldiers came to greet them and let them enter the city through the Tonghua Gate. The emperor set up a welcome line outside the Tonghua Gate.

Leading them across the stone bridge of Longshou Canal, they could see countless people lining the road outside the city gate to welcome them from a distance.

They got off their horses together and came outside the city gate. Wang Hua saw Lao Wu leading his officials and a group of royal disciples waiting for them.But he also saw two things, one is a 罍.This is a kind of ritual vessel for holding wine, which is also called Zun, but the Pot Zun is just a pot, and the Mountain Zun is a 罍 (thunder).The 罍 is a large vessel in the Zunzhong.

But Zun and Yi are the most important ritual utensils, and there are special officials in charge of these six kinds of Zun utensils.

Walking closer, Wang Hua also saw that this statue was decorated with catalpa wood. This Wang Hua understood that the emperor used jade, the scholar-bureaucrats used gold, and the scholars used catalpa wood. careless.

In addition to this Dafang statue of a warrior holding a sword, there is another kind of ritual vessel, the Yi.It is also a kind of wine vessel, but it is slightly different from the Zun. The Zun holds wine, but the Yi is used to hold Yuchang (Chang), which is wine mixed with turmeric, that is, fragrant wine.Yi vessels are also slightly smaller than Zun.This hexagonal Yi is painted with Pixiu patterns.Seeing this decoration, Wang Hua finally understood that Lao Wu might pay homage to the soldiers of the Blood Camp who died this time outside the city.

He took two steps, came to Wu Zetian, gave a one-kneeling military salute, and said: "I see Your Majesty."

"Get up," Wu Zetian gave a little support, then looked at the soldiers behind, and sighed, "It's really a blood armor camp again. But Wang Qing, you brought back too few warriors."

As he spoke, he took out his handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Wang Hua is not easy to answer, which is already good. If Xue Na hadn't responded, he might have come back. I don't know if there are 200 people or 100 people.

Lao Wu said again: "I saw your battle report in the palace, and I couldn't cry for several times. It is because of you brave men like tigers and tigers that my country can keep peace forever. Today, I personally pay homage to the brave men who died. "

As soon as the words were spoken, a group of musicians carried out bells, yong, duo, chimes, gongs and other ritual instruments, and played sacrificial music.

The eunuch began to read out the sacrificial text. According to the list of military exploits written by Wang Hua, written by court officials, the sacrificial text was very long and described the deeds and achievements of the sacrificed soldiers one by one. For example, Shanzhou Qi Zhun killed 13 Turks with his hands. Knock into the air, and kill an enemy with a large lance.Another example is Liu Yong in Qingzhou, who killed 11 Turks with his hands. When guarding the top of Yangchang Ridge, he was shot with five arrows and returned three arrows in his hand, killing two enemies.

Accompanied by bursts of sorrow and joy, it is like a heavy and tragic story, slowly unfolding in front of everyone.Even the heroes of the Blood Camp couldn't help but burst into tears.

It took a while to finish the long sacrificial oration, and Wu Zetian began to pour wine and splash the sky and the ground to pay homage to the souls of the dead.

Although Wang Hua was also a little moved, he knew in his heart that Lao Wu was still buying people's hearts.The blood camp was greeted twice grandly. After knowing that entering the blood camp will cost a lot, there are still many heroes who are not afraid of death, and they will still squeeze their heads to get in like last year.

After Wu Zetian finished the worship, he turned his head, looked at Wang Hua and said, "You talked to that Mo Chuai about the champion."

Wang Hua nodded. Although Wang Hua didn't take the soldiers there that day, there were still some captured people behind Mo Chuo, and they also vaguely heard the conversation between himself and Mo Chuo, but what happened when it spread to the Central Plains? , Wang Hua didn't know either.Anyway, the rumors on the street, even the blood camp's own brothers were stunned when they heard about it, and then laughed.

"It's ridiculous that the old man can't see gold inlaid with jade. Could it be that we don't have a champion in Dazhou?" After finishing speaking, Wu Zetian turned around and asked an official next to him, "He Jue, the champion is 17 years old?"

Wang Hua knew Wei Chengqing from Fenggeshe. Although his surname was Wei, he was not the same as Wei from the Wei family.He is talented in literature and literature, and he is very filial to his mother, but it is a pity that he is committed to Erzhang and Yidang.

Hearing Wu Zetian's answer, as Er Zhang's confidant, he knew many things, and he replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Champion Hou also made his military exploits at the age of 17. The captain went out to search for the enemy with 800 people in the vast desert. As a result, he won the first battle and beheaded more than [-] enemies. Immediately after hearing the news, he was named the champion, which means to praise him for his bravery and victory."

Wu Zetian asked again: "Can Wang Qing compare with the champion?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, although General Wang failed to capture Mo Chuu, he returned with great victories many times. In less than a year, a total of [-] enemies were killed, thousands of Turkic soldiers were captured, and thousands of Turkic soldiers were killed. There are dozens of brave generals on the other side. Their achievements are roughly the same."

There is no exaggeration in the back, but the previous number is wrong. This is because the imperial court even counted the number of herdsmen killed by the blood camp.

"Okay, Wang Qing, you can fight bloody battles for me and travel thousands of miles, how can I cherish a title! I will make you the champion today."

The ministers gasped, and they were mentally prepared for the possibility of a generous reward for Wang Hua when he came back this time, but they did not expect that Wu Zetian would be rewarded with a champion.In the Tang Dynasty, there were nine ranks of noble titles. The first was the king, who had [-] households in the city, and he was the first rank; It is called Kaiguo County Duke, with [-] households in Shiyi, and is the second grade; , [-] households in the food town, are on the fourth rank; on the eighth, Kaiguo county sons, [-] households in the food town, on the fifth rank;

Wang Hua used to be an official and a job, but he didn't have a title. Now it's good, he jumped four levels in a row, and he couldn't jump any higher.Di Renjie has done so many things in his life, he is a man.Later, Emperor Ruizong of the Tang Dynasty was made the Duke of the state, and then the king, there were five kings including Zhang Jianzhi, but what happened to the kings with different surnames?
And because the land is tight now, this knighthood has to be rewarded with land, but how can there be land to be rewarded?Rarely knighted.

Wang Hua was still in a daze, and he was worried that he had no foundation. With this title, in the future, as long as he had the means, he could get a thousand households to fill the Wang family.How much does this help him?
But Lao Wu's reward is too generous.

Prime Minister Li Dan shouted at the side: "I still don't thank you for the decree."

He looked at Li Dan, and then at Li Longji who was standing behind him, bowing his hands to congratulate him. Wang Hua understood. I am afraid that Xiang Wang had heard the news a long time ago, so his attitude changed again.

Don't think about the story behind it, Wang Hua knelt down to thank the decree.

All the ministers, especially those generals, looked at Wang Hua with red eyes, jealous. Although the boy was willing to sacrifice his life, it was worth it.

The title of Wang Hua's title cannot be sealed again, and if he is sealed again, some ministers will immediately go out to impeach him.The official can't be sealed anymore, after all, the blood camp still needs to be in charge of Wang Hua.He began to reward the soldiers of the blood battalion, all of them were rewarded, even the dead soldiers were given some rewards, so that their families could enjoy the glory.

But the more Wang Hua listened, the more anxious he became, and finally he said: "Your Majesty, can you listen to me."

"Say."

"Your Majesty, there are only more than [-] people left in the blood camp, but this time, your majesty will transfer most of the soldiers from the blood camp. What should we do with the framework of the blood camp?"

They are rewarded and promoted, but two-thirds are released outside.For example, Guo Zhiyun was sent to Mozhou to be the governor, and Kong Heizi was sent to Youzhou to be the long history.Even Jing Zhiyang was transferred to Pingzhou as a soldier, and Shan Xuefeng was transferred to Daizhou as a Sima.

As for the possibility that some people might be transferred to the Blood Camp due to promotion, Wang Hua had already expected it, but he couldn't do it like this. What would be left in the Blood Camp?
Wu Zetian beckoned and said, "Come here."

When Wang Hua walked in front of her, Wu Zetian said in a low voice: "Wang Xiaoer, they are all the elites of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I don't want them to make any mistakes. Including you, if it wasn't for the Youzhou army to cooperate with you, this time the blood How many soldiers are left in the battalion. I can't bear it."

Now that Lao Wu said such a thing, Wang Hua fell silent.

Wu Zetian said again: "But I have issued an order to the soldiers from all over the country, and more warriors will enter the blood camp to fill the vacancies of sacrificed and transferred soldiers. Wang Qing, you don't have to worry."

Then he said in a low voice: "It's better than when you brought [-] soldiers back to Luoyang. Let everyone see hope, so that they have the courage and motivation to fight."

Wang Hua had nothing to say.If Wang Hua continues to play like this, there are only 600 people left out of nearly 60 people. This time, there are only 4000 people left after [-] people. How many people will be left next time?If it really enters a death cycle, and the soldiers have no hope of survival, the blood camp will collapse in the end.Because there are no new recruits.

In this case, Wang Hua took out the piece of paper from his arms and said, "This is the warriors from all over the place recommended by the soldiers of the Blood Camp. I hope the emperor will order them to enter the Blood Camp for a try."

Wu Zetian picked up the list and looked at it, but she didn't recognize it.Except for Xue Rengui's grandson, the others had never even heard of their names, and she didn't think about what this list meant, and said, "I'm sure."

Hearing Lao Wu readily agree, Wang Hua's wounded heart was comforted a bit.

The long reward went on for a long time.Originally, he could enter the city in the morning, but it took more than two hours after noon for this tossing before it really ended.

Only then did Wu Zetian say: "Warriors, today I held a banquet in the palace and honored the return of all warriors. Let me tell you something, you are back home again! Today I am also happy that you are coming home, and I will personally accompany all warriors in pain." Drink three hundred cups, all warriors must not get drunk and return!"

Three hundred cups is an imaginary number, and thirty cups of old Wu can't stand it.But the words were very sensational, and more than 1000 people in the blood camp burst into cheers.

A group of people, escorted by countless Habayashi soldiers, entered the city gate grandly.

But Xiaoyu was really at a loss. She was also standing among the soldiers of the blood camp, which was particularly eye-catching, but the strange thing was that Wu Zetian didn't seem to see it, and neither did Li Dan.Then let's go into the city together, looking at Wang Hua with some joy, and then looking at the father in front of him, worry appeared on his face again.It was Wang Hua who woke up and whispered in her ear: "Princess, catch up with your father."

The little girl came to her senses, held up her skirt, chased after her, and let Li Longji drag her into the carriage.Li Longji turned his head back and smiled at Wang Hua.

Entering the imperial city, Chang'an's imperial city is much larger than Luoyang. The banquet was held in the Linde Hall in the Daming Palace, which was also the place where the Tang Dynasty emperors held grand banquets or entertained foreign envoys.It is divided into three halls, the front, the middle, and the back. It is 130 meters long from north to south and nearly 80 meters wide. It is magnificent.It was Wang Hua's first visit.As soon as he crossed the front hall and was about to enter the middle hall, Li Gu'er deliberately moved down and whispered into Wang Hua's ear, "Is this what you mean by fairness? Excuse me, Wang Xiaoer, the one you mentioned The truth of the door?"
