[At this time, because of An Lushan's year-round management and Zhang Shougui's previous record, An Lushan had already gained enough impression points with Xuanzong.

And regarding Zhang Shougui's behavior, Xuanzong's interpretation was: If An Lushan was really guilty of a capital crime, he could have been rectified on the spot in Youzhou, why bother sending him all the way to Chang'an?

However, the famous Prime Minister Zhang Jiuling disagreed and believed that the law could not be violated and failure to kill would definitely be a disaster.

In order to refute here, Xuanzong gave a very appropriate example:

Please don't think that Wang Yifu knows Shi Le's story and harm Zhongliang by mistake.

The allusion used here is from the catalog of the Magic Jin Book. It tells that Wang Yan once met Shi Le when he was young. He could tell at a glance that this was a rebel. He wanted to kill Shi Le but failed to catch up.

Xuanzong used this allusion with two meanings. One is that you, Zhang Jiuling, should not think that you are Wang Yan's innate wisdom.

The other one didn't believe it: In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, who could rebel?

But we all know that Wang Yan was a complete loser, and later he begged Shi Le for mercy. This allusion was probably made up by the descendants of the Wang family who thought it was too ugly, and made it up.

But the allusion used here is relatively dark humor:

Zhang Jiuling's judgment was correct; An Lushan would really rebel.

But Xuanzong's verdict had been issued, and An Lushan returned to Youzhou without any punishment.

After this incident, An Lushan relied on his ability to observe words and emotions and summed up the way of life in the capital: The emperor is heaven!

So he later spent more money to bribe officials in the capital in order to speak favorably in front of Xuanzong, and this investment soon paid off.

In 742, An Lushan was appointed as the military governor of Pinglu. He completed the promotion in just ten years, which was shockingly fast.

For comparison, ten years later, An Sishun was still the governor of Taozhou. 】

Zhang Fei also smacked his tongue: If this Lu Bu could be half as skilled as An Lushan...

Then Zhang Fei looked at Liu Bei and said:

I think of the most suitable words to use to persuade Xuanzong.

? Liu Bei gave him a confused look.

Zhang Fei cleared his throat and imitated Liu Bei's tone and rhythm:

Didn't you see what happened to Ding Jianyang and Dong Zhuo?

Everyone in the hall burst into laughter.

Liu Bei pinched the end of his beard and laughed helplessly.

Don’t say too much, you weirdo, Liu Bei is a bit pity:

Xuanzong has a name but doesn't use it. Isn't it a mistake?

If Liu Bei's memory is correct, this is the first time that later generations have used the term name and xiang, and it should still be of a considerable level.

But... Liu Bei looked at Kong Ming. Compared with Kong Ming, I don’t know how it is?

Kong Ming didn't notice anything, but his head hurt when he saw the allusion between Wang Yan and Shi Le:

The Wang family has a good face.

His understanding is that the descendants of King Taiyuan passed down this allusion to say that Wang Yan had foresight.

But...seeing myself buried by a wall first? I can't understand it, it deserves the name of Magic Book of Jin.

Therefore, Kong Ming is no longer entangled:

Both Zhang Shougui and An Sishun were activated with their white bodies. Even An Lushan's ability to enter Zhang Shougui's eyes with his white body is also a military achievement.

If the system of military merit had not been corrupted, how could An Lushan be in such a high position?

Fa Zheng understood what the military advisor meant: Who destroyed this military merit system? Tang Xuanzong himself.

His Fa Zhengke has always been unforgiving: Now we know why future generations hate his late death.

Regarding what happened to An Lushan, Li Jing was relatively restrained and simply said:

This Shougui should be killed together!

Hou Junji was not too polite:

I have never heard of an army that fled without killing it, or did not take responsibility for a defeated army.

How can we risk the lives of our soldiers by playing with military law like this?

For the two generals, this kind of confusion of right and wrong in military law was the most unbearable for them.

Moreover, the two of them also believed that His Majesty had the same view. After all, His Majesty's ability to control the world was not only due to his unparalleled grasp of combat opportunities, but more importantly, the fact that he had soldiers under his command who dared to die.

Only when rewards and punishments are clear and do not violate the military system can soldiers perform their duties to the death.

And sure enough, Li Shimin's face was not at all worried, and there was even a hint of gnashing of teeth in his tone:

I should send these good descendants to fight twice on the battlefield and experience what the love of the emperor means!

He originally thought that An Lushan was a talent who had been buried in battle formations, but the result was unexpected and expected: he turned out to be a person who was incompetent in battle formations!

Such a person could hold tens of thousands of Tang troops, and for a moment his heart was filled with sadness.

The prestige of military laws and regulations that this descendant casually threw away was established and accumulated through hard work when he, Li Shimin, conquered the world with his own hands.

In the end, Li Shimin could only clench his fists and sigh helplessly:

What a kid, I don't feel bad selling my father's land.

Wei Zheng wanted to speak, but Li Shimin waved his hand and said:

Xuancheng doesn't need to say anything. I know...managing an army is like governing the world. Soldiers are like water, and generals are like boats. They can be carried and capsized.

Li Shimin stared blankly at the scene in the light screen, watching the man dressed as a barbarian patting his belly and dancing, while the extremely luxurious emperor above him laughed and looked very happy.

They were both from the Tang Dynasty, but Li Shimin felt so strange.

[The ten years from 742 to 751 were the golden decades of An Lushan.

These ten years were the ten years of his rapid rise to prominence, and the ten years of his flattery and flattery.

There are countless records about An Lushan flattering Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty:

For example, when he went to court to worship the emperor but not the prince, he was reminded that he only knew the emperor but not the prince, which made Li Longji laugh and said that the prince would be his successor as the emperor in a hundred years. An Lushan could cry on the spot. While crying, how could an emperor like you die?

For example, he recognized Yang Yuhuan, who was sixteen years younger than him, as his godmother, and worshiped Yang Yuhuan first every time he entered the palace, and plausibly said that it was the custom of the Hu people to worship their mother first. Li Longji felt that he was naive and straightforward.

In fact, An Lushan has been an intermediary for more than ten years, and he has gone to Beijing to bribe. He can know which door opens in which direction. He is a standard human spirit. No matter how you look at it, he has the standard to play with Li Longji. .

It can only be said that it is a pity that An Lushan is not a girl. Otherwise, if he entered the palace and competed for favor, what would happen to Yang Yuhuan?

And the rewards of this kind of pretending to be stupid are of course huge.

Li Longji prepared an extremely luxurious mansion for An Lushan, and even the most unnoticed kitchen utensils were decorated with gold and silver.

Yang Yuhuan held a washing three ceremony for his eldest son, which was exclusive for three-year-old children at that time, that is, to wash away the dirt of naked young children. For this purpose, he also prepared a piece of clothing for An Lushan, who was nearly fifty years old. Huge swaddle.

Imagine a middle-aged fat man with a belly that hangs down to his knees, being surrounded by a group of harem concubines and calling him Lu for his birthday. It can only be said that in a sense, he is worthy of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

As a result, An Lushan could enter and leave the palace at will without notice, and even often stayed overnight in the harem. Some people suggested that it was inappropriate, but Li Longji did not take it seriously, and instead reprimanded the person who suggested it.

That is to say, relying on this favor, An Lushan became de facto one person inferior to ten thousand people.

In 744, An Lushan concurrently served as the military governor of Fan Yang;

In 747, An Lushan was appointed imperial minister;

In 751, An Lushan asked for the position of Hedong Jiedushi, the last of the three towns in Heshuo, and Li Longji agreed.

In 754, Li Longji wanted to add Tongpingzhangshi to An Lushan as prime minister, but was stopped by Yang Guozhong, Yang Yuhuan's brother who was prime minister at the time.

But to be honest, it was too late to stop this. From the time An Lushan concurrently served as the Jiedushi of the three towns, what happened next was already doomed.

After all, no matter who has the strength of 183,900 men, they will inevitably make three exclamations:

I see that the throne is quite comfortable to sit on.

Why can't I just sit down alone?

I'm not convinced! 】

〖UP Lord, you are too anxious with these three paragraphs of exclamation. You should go to the palace with swords and shoes, praise and worship Wuming, add nine gifts, be a great Sima general, and supervise all the internal and external military affairs. The opening ceremony of the government is the same as that of the three divisions, and he is granted the title of King of Qi.

To be honest, Li Longji in his early days could be said to be mediocre, but in his later years, he was simply escaping from reality.

This is the truth that reality is far more exciting than fiction, because reality never follows logic, just like Li Longji’s early days of robbing his daughter-in-law openly and openly. I have a clear conscience.

Zhu Di, who had usurped the throne with eight hundred soldiers, would die of envy when he saw this? With such troops, why grab Zhu Yunzhen? He just opened the Yan Kingdom on the spot.

Zhao Kuangyin: The chaos in the feudal town has begun since then. The immortal king has given me the opportunity, and I should reflect on myself.

Li Shimin: How can a dog or rat become an emperor? ! ! ! ! ! 〗

Kong Ming had no time to pay attention to anything else for the time being, so he quickly took out a note and wrote down this new one with a name.

And judging by its phrasing and last name, a new audience? The emperor of the Song Dynasty? Why don't you test it out later?

As for His Majesty Erfeng's sigh, Kong Ming can only say that he understands the mood.

Kong Ming even sighed in his heart again at this time: Compared with this, he has no complaints about Adou.

But what others were more surprised for the time being was the content of the light curtain.

How much? How much? Zhang Fei jumped up:

With such a force, you only need to give me half of it. I, Lao Zhang, can't capture Cao Cao's thieves alive. Come and see him!

Zhao Yun, who showed no expressions of emotion or anger, also had a look of surprise on his face, and was also frightened by this number.

Liu Bei's first reaction when he saw this strength was that he was envious. His second reaction was that if I had such strength...

Then he wiped the non-existent saliva and sighed:

It’s not like we have never seen a foolish king before, but we have never seen such a arrogant and arrogant foolish king!

This number of soldiers and horses is mixed, which shows that it is a real force of 180,000 troops!

If there were no logistical problems, An Lushan would be enough to sweep all three of them, Sun Cao and Liu, by one person and put an end to the troubled times!

The lines on Fazheng's forehead were all visible. He swallowed his envious saliva, but his words were unforgiving:

If Xuanzong is not stopped by others, will the next step be to make An Lushan the crown prince?

Moreover, my inner evaluation of Tang Xuanzong also dropped again and again:

Can you believe these flattering words and are you sure that there is nothing wrong with your intelligence?

And you have a prince?

Xu Shu shook his head, feeling that seeing the map of the earth in future generations was not as shocking as it was at this moment.

He sighed softly in an inaudible voice:

The emperor's authority is granted privately to others.

The encounters in troubled times and the experiences of Xu Shu made Xu Shu deeply understand: The emperor has no army, and his destiny is ruined.

Zhang Song, for the first time, had some doubts about Light Screen's words and looked dazed:

This is the prosperous Tang Dynasty? How can this be called the prosperous Tang Dynasty?
