Chapter 242 Guo Wei conquers the river city

The court sent Guo Congyi to convey the imperial edict, and Zhao Siwan was the queen of Huazhou, and the commander Chang Yanqing was the governor of Guozhou. Guo Congyi sent someone to the city to pass on the message and ordered Zhao Siwan to go out of the city to receive the imperial edict. Zhao Siwan broke his armor and went out of the city and accepted the imperial edict. Then he agreed with Guo Congyi to go to Huazhou to take office. Guo Congyi agreed to him and agreed to Zhao Siwan to return to the city to dress up, but only sent some soldiers to accompany him to the city and guard the southern gate. After Zhao Siwan returned, he felt regretful again. He used the excuse that his clothes had not been sorted out and changed his travel schedule many times.

Guo Congyi then discussed with Wang Jun and said, "This man's ambition seems to be untrustworthy. It's better to get rid of it as soon as possible to eliminate future troubles!" Wang Jun did not agree very much, saying that he would report to Guo Wei and make a decision after asking for instructions. Guo Congyi had no choice but to send someone to the Hezhong camp and ask Guo Wei to get rid of Zhao Siwan. After Guo Wei learned about it, he asked Guo Congyi to tell Guo Congyi and agree to his plan. After Guo Wei's approval, Guo Congyi entered the city with Wang Jun. The streets were lined with infantry and knights and went straight to the office.

Guo Congyi sent someone to summon Zhao Siwan and said, "The Taibao is on the road, I will come here to practice it. Please drink a drink to express your meaning." Zhao Siwan had to follow. As soon as he left the door, Guo Congyi called a secret code and commanded the soldiers to take him down. Then he entered the office, searched the family and commander Chang Yanqing, and led the city to the city and beheaded and showed the public.

Guo Congyi confiscated all Zhao Siwan's family wealth, and obtained a total of more than 200,000 yuan. Half of it was handed over to the warehouse to confiscate the warehouse and half to provide relief to the victims. The population in the city was originally more than 100,000, but by this time there were only more than 10,000 people left. Guo Congyi invited Li Su and asked him to take charge of the relief work. Li Su naturally did it. Two days later, Li Su canceled his job and went home to explain to Mrs. Zhang that the old couple had to rest assured and grow old together.

After Zhao Siwan was sentenced, Guo Wei was relieved of his worries, so he supervised his troops to attack the city day and night and rushed into the outer capital. Li Shouzhen took over the rest of the city and retreated to the inner city. The generals asked to attack Zicheng quickly. Guo Wei said: "When the birds have nowhere to escape, they will still peck people, let alone an army! Today, we are about to achieve great success, which is equivalent to slowly scooping the water and catching fish again. Why be so impatient!"

Li Shouzhen knew that he would die, so he piled up firewood in the yamen and prepared to burn himself at any time. A few days later, the guard general opened the city gate to welcome the surrender. Someone reported to Li Shouzhen, and Li Shouzhen quickly set fire to burn firewood and threw his family into the fire. It was said that it was too late, and at that time, the government army had already attacked the government office and quickly extinguished the fire with water, and quickly put out the fire. Li Shouzhen, his wife and son Li Chongxun were already burned to death. Several sons and two daughters were not killed. The government army found the corpse, owed Li Shouzhen's head, and presented his undead children to Guo Wei's horse together.

Guo Wei checked Li Shouzhen's family and found that Li Chongxun, one of Li Shouzhen's sons, was missing, and then ordered the soldiers to enter the palace to search. The outer hall of the government office had been burned, but the inner room was still unharmed. The soldiers rushed into the room and saw a pile of corpses. They didn't know which one was Li Chongxun. They saw a woman wearing gorgeous clothes sitting in the hall, with a graceful and unhappy feeling.

The soldiers suspected that they were puppets, so they approached to check. But when they heard the woman shouting loudly, "Don't be arrogant! Guo Wei and my father are old friends, how dare you offend me!" The soldiers didn't know who she was, but when they saw her majestic and fierce look, they didn't dare to go forward to lock her, so they had to leave the mansion and report to Guo Wei. Guo Wei was also surprised, so they got off the horse and went to check in person.

That woman

When the man saw Guo Wei coming in in person, he came down to the court to meet him. Guo Wei looked at it at a glance and seemed to have a third-part understanding. He immediately asked her surname. After she said it calmly, Guo Wei said in surprise: "You are indeed my niece, how can you suffer! I will send someone to send you back to my parents' home." The woman said sadly: "The family members of the traitor will inevitably die. Meng Gong is a great destiny and is grateful! But his niece accidentally married the evil thief and married the traitor's son Li Chongxun for many years. Li Chongxun has committed suicide. Can you let the niece be buried as a perfect deed! If you are grateful, you should repay the great kindness for the dog and horse in the next life!"

Seeing that her condition was pitiful, Guo Wei couldn't help but be moved, so he asked her to point out Li Chongxun's body, which was buried by the soldiers. After the woman sent her to mourn, she thanked Guo Wei and returned to her parents' home. Guo Wei sent troops to escort her. The woman's family was in Yanzhou. Yanzhou was Fu Yanqing, the Duke of Wei, the governor of Taining Army, and was the father of the woman.

It turned out that when Li Shouzhen was secretly hiding a strange intention, he once asked a sorcerer to ask about good and bad luck. There was a sorcerer who was good at listening to sound and judging good and bad luck. So Li Shouzhen summoned all his family and asked them to speak. After hearing one of the sorcerers and commenting one of them, they were just ordinary clichés. When it was Li Chongxun's turn to speak, the sorcerer couldn't help but say: "This person will be a great honor in the future, and his mother will be in the world!"

When Li Shouzhen heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "My daughter-in-law will be the mother of the world. It seems that I will be successful in seizing the world. Why bother to doubt it?" So he decided to rebel. After the city was broken, Li Shouzhen was buried in the fire cave. Li Chongxun did not go there. He killed his family first, and then wanted to kill Fu's family. Fu's family walked to a secret place to hide, making it impossible for Li Chongxun to find him. Li Chongxun then committed suicide, and Fu was able to escape and return to Yanzhou in the east.

Fu Yanqing got her daughter back and hurriedly wrote a letter to thank Guo Wei. Because Guo Wei was reborn, he wanted to make this girl worship Guo Wei as her father. Guo Wei did not refuse and replied to this matter. The daughter's mother said that her husband's family was destroyed and there was only one person left. It was nothing more than the protection of the gods. It was better to cut her hair into a nun and be a Zen disciple to end her life. Fu shook her head and said, "Life and death are destiny, and she will destroy her body and hair for no reason. Why is this trouble?" Later, she married Zhou Shizong and became the queen, and indeed fulfilled the words of the sorcerer.

Guo Wei checked Li Shouzhen's official documents and letters, and received many letters from powerful officials of the court, as well as the vassal state officials and Li Shouzhen's collusion, and many rebellious remarks. Guo Wei wanted to submit a report to the court, but Secretary Wang Pu advised: "The ghosts only compete to come out at night, and they will naturally disappear when they see the sun. I hope to burn all this to calm those who are capricious." Guo Wei felt that what he said was reasonable, so he obeyed immediately and only reported the victory to the court.

Guo Wei summoned Zhao Xiuji as Mubin, in charge of astronomy, and at the same time searched for fake prime ministers from all directions. The Han lord Liu Chengyou personally ruled Mingdelou and was captured, and all officials praised him for congratulations. Liu Chengyou immediately ordered the captured criminals to tour the capital, hang Li Shouzhen's head in the south city, and then killed each criminal in the west city.

At this point, the three rebels had already quelled the two rebels, and only Fengxiang was the city, which could be delivered day and night. So the court summoned Guo Wei to return to the court, leaving Hu Yanke to guard Hezhong, and Huazhou was in short supply, so Liu Ci ordered him to re-appoint him. Guo Congyi was appointed as the governor of Yong'an and added the title of Tongpingzhang. In addition, the soldiers who made meritorious were rewarded with me. Guo Wei returned to Beijing and went to the court to meet Liu Chengyou. Liu Chengyou comforted him in person and personally gave him the imperial wine to Guo Wei. After Guo Wei knelt down and kowtowed to thank him.

Liu Chengyouming took out the reward items from both sides, all of them were some

Guo Wei thanked and refused, "I was ordered to suppress the rebellion, but only conquered one city, and there was no great contribution! Moreover, I was commanded to rule out the troops, guarding the capital, and supplying military food. All the ministers were dispatched by the ministers in the middle, so that the envoys could destroy the rebellion and punish the evildoers. How dare I enjoy such rewards? Please give these to the ministers of the court!"

Liu Chengyou said, "I know that all the ministers have made merits and will reward you soon. These are only enough to reward your family, so don't refuse!" Guo Wei then resigned. The next morning, Guo Wei entered the court, and the Han lord Liu Chengyou wanted Guo Wei to be the governor of the town.

Guo Wei resigned again: "Yang Bin is in his position, and he has not been able to seal the scattered land. How dare I take this? Moreover, I have been kind to you by Your Majesty and live in Privy Councilors. I am just a tentative counselor and cannot be the same as the generals. Shi Hongzhao was a founding hero and always served as the generals, so he was able to lead the vassal states at the same time, but I dare not accept it!"

Seeing that Guo Wei refused repeatedly, Liu Chengyou had to give up. So he appointed Guo Wei as the chief magistrate and the position of the Secretariat. He also gave him the additional gifts to Shi Hongzhao, Su Fengji, Su Yugui, Dou Zhengu, Yang Bin and others, and the rewards were almost the same as those of Guo Wei. Only the Secretariat Li Tao, who had long been dismissed from the position of prime minister, so there was no reward.

Liu Chengyou also wanted to reward Guo Wei in a special way, but Guo Wei repeatedly thanked him: "The planning and planning also come from the temple. The dispatch of troops and grain comes from the vassal states; the exposure of the battle comes from the soldiers. Now the merits are granted to me, an ordinary person alone. If I reward them again and again, I will be willing to spend the rest of my life to serve Your Majesty. When the great achievements are achieved in the future, I will come and receive the reward!" The Han lord Liu Chengyou stopped discussing.

But some people say that the ministers who were granted were close to Liu Chengyou. This time he did not add the title of external vassal, which would be more important than the outside. So Liu Chengyou discussed again, adding the Tianxiong Jieduan Gao Xingzhou as the Taishi, the Shandong Dongdao Jieduan An Shenqi as the Taifu, the Yanzhou Jieduan Fu Yanqing as the Taibao, the Hedong Jieduan Liu Chong as the Taishu Ling. The Zhongwu Jieduan Liu Xin, the Tianping Jieduan Murong Yanchao, the Pinglu Jieduan Liu Zhu also served as the Shizhong, the Shuofang Jieduan Feng Hui, the Xiazhou Jieduan Li Yiyin also served as the Zhongshu Ling, the Yiwu Jieduan Sun Fangjian, and the Wuning Jieduan Liu Yun were promoted to Tongpingzhang Shi.

Besides, Zhao Hui has been besieging Fengxiang for more than a year. Now Chang'an is pacified in the river, but Fengxiang is the only one who has not been pacified. After his achievements, he cannot help but be extremely anxious. Therefore, Zhao Hui often urged his troops to attack Fengxiang and wanted to conquer it as soon as possible. Wang Jingchong was trapped in the dangerous city, but he was exhausted and his food was exhausted.

Zhou Can, aide of Wang Jingchong, said to him: "Ming Gong had echoed each other with Hezhong and Chang'an, so he could stick to it until now. Now the two towns have been pacified. What should Ming Gong rely on? The Shu people are really unreliable, so it is better to surrender to the Han Dynasty and perhaps save their lives."

Wang Jingchong said, "I made a mistake for a moment and I have implicated you. Now I regret it! It's a good plan to persuade me to surrender. But the city will be destroyed, and it may not be impossible to die even if I surrender. Haven't you heard of Zhao Siwan's fate?" Zhou Can knew that he could no longer be persuaded, so he quit the office.

After a few days, the attack outside became more and more urgent. Wang Jingchong looked around and saw Zhao Hui crossing horses and catching arrows and stones. All the soldiers worked hard to serve. In the direction of the north of the city, the attack was the most beneficial, and he couldn't help but bow down to his head.
