A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 276 Luliang Mountain

The woman's name is Helian Jinzhu.

Helian Bobo that Helian.

"My hometown is Li Shiguji Mountain, and my ancestors were the Great Xia Emperor Helian Bobo."

"I, Aye, named me Jinzhu. It is said that it is because Helianbobo's favorite daughter is Ali Jinzhu."

Once the female assassin's memory opened, she couldn't stop.

When she first heard her talk about Guji Mountain, her hometown, Huaiyu didn't know where it was, but later realized that she was talking about Luliang Mountain.

Shuowen Jiezi, Lu, spine also.

Bone Ridge Mountain is just another name of Luliang Mountain. The Luliang Mountain in the east of the river is rolling up and down. Although it is not abrupt, it cuts across the world, just like a giant lying on its back with its back arched, so it is named Luliang.

Wenshui, Wu's hometown, is also on the side of Luliang Mountain.

Luliang is the base camp of Lishihu. Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, this place has been imprinted with the imprint of the Huns. The Southern Huns who belonged to them and the 58 tribes of the Northern Huns who were defeated by the Eastern Han Dynasty moved more than 20 people to live in Hedong one after another. By the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty , Cao Cao divided it into five parts, distributed them in various places, and selected Han people as Sima supervisors.

Among them, the core part of the Xiongnu lived in Bingzhou, known as the Wubuhu, and the Wubuhu branch was resettled in the Luliang Mountains. There are more than 3 tribes, more than 20 people, and more than [-] Xianbei people in Daijun. The total is as high as five. More than [-], more than the local Han people.

Due to the partition between Hu and Han, coupled with the fact that the scholars are weak and weak, they are often taken captive as slaves, so their resentment is poisoned to the bone marrow.

At the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, Liu Yuan, the leader of the five tribes of the Xiongnu, set up an army in Luliang. In the middle of the [-]th century, there were [-] soldiers.

For more than a hundred years after that, the Five Husbands and the Sixteen Kingdoms were all related to Lishi, and they were all gathered under Liu Yuan's account, such as the later Zhao Shile, and Helian Bobo who later established the Great Xia.

The Lvliang valley is deep and blocked, and the service has not yet been completed. The mountain beard is fierce and dangerous, and the number of bandits is rebellious.

Shanhus are distinguished by place names, with the Yellow River as the boundary, Hexi Shanhus are called Hexi Shanhus, and they are distributed in Yan, Qing, Fu, Sui, and Yin prefectures. On the east side, there are Lishi Hu, Xihe Hu, Fenzhou Hu, and Shangjun Hu. wait.

Lishi Hu has always been the most numerous and powerful of all the Shan Hus.

However, these mountain beards are not all of the Xiongnu species. They are scattered in these closed mountains, mainly of the Xiongnu species, but there are also Jie people who escaped because of killing Hu Ling, and other tribes of Xianbei, as well as Qiang and Miao. , but the Huns dominated.

For a long time, the Luliang mountain area has been the refuge for those defeated Hu people who entered the Central Plains to fight for hegemony.

After the defeat, they scattered among the mountains and came out to do something from time to time, but most of the time, they were oppressed by the imperial court or the gentry and powerful people in the east of Guanzhong, and they were often kidnapped and used as slaves.

Whenever there was chaos at the end of the dynasty, from the Luliang mountain area to the Hengshan mountain area, these mountain beards would also jump out to take advantage of the fire and loot.

From the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Northern Qi Dynasty to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, they all had headaches for those mountain beards, which were called Huhuang.

Li Yuan couldn't bear it later, and asked Jiancheng to lead an army to attack Jihu, and issued an edict to cross the valleys and mountains to impoverish his lair.

The leaders of Lishihu, Liu Longer, Liu Liuer, and Liu Jizhen, were also defeated successively.

"I heard from Ye Niang that when the former emperor was founded, life in the mountains was relatively stable. Although taxes and taxes were required to be paid, and even conscripted to build the Great Wall, it was peaceful. But since Daye, life has been difficult day by day. Yes," she sighed, "Emperor Yang was trapped in Yanmen, Turks invaded and plundered, but us mountain beards suffered disasters, gods fought, and mortals suffered disasters."

"Since then, there has never been a day of peace in Luliang Mountain. Liu Long'er said that he will lead everyone to build our own country, and we will no longer be bullied. Everyone believes in him and follows him from every mountain and valley.

But no matter how he vacillated between Liu Wuzhou, Li Tang, and Turkic, they were still killed in the end, and we also collapsed from Lishihu. Since then, life has become more difficult, and anyone can come to bully us... ··”

"There are not many young people in the mountains anymore. They either fought and died with Liu Long'er and his son, or became prisoners. Some of the remaining young people voted for Liu Wuzhou in their early years, some for the Turkic army, some for the Tang army, and some for the Liang division. , Guo Zihe and others,

Fighting back and forth for more than ten years, our Shanhu young people were killed and injured countless times.

There are very few who can really make some famous tricks up to now.

Liu Daju, who once served as the general manager of Suizhou in the Tang Dynasty, was once an official to the general of You Xiaowei, but this person was born in the Liu family of Diaoyin. Moving westward with Xiaowu to the Guanzhong area, he is no longer considered an authentic Shanhu.

In the Taiping era, the mountain beards could at least live a stable life in the mountains.

And in troubled times, if the mountain beards had a strong leader, at least they wouldn't be bullied by everyone, but like them now, after many famous leaders of the major ministries rose and fell one after another, the ministries were scattered and could never get together again. Get up, completely reduced to a fish waiting to be slaughtered.

"I'd rather listen to the people of Fenyang cry than the people of Lishi quarreling." The woman smiled helplessly. They spoke sonorously and loudly from Lishihu. They were originally the most straightforward temperaments, but now they don't even have a chance of survival.

The wind is blowing with sand.

Wu Huaiyu tasted the tea, and almost figured out the origin of this assassin. He came from Luliang Mountain, Lishi Mountain Hu, and his ancestors might even be Helian Bobo, who once established the Great Xia Kingdom. He successively participated in the separatist forces of Liu Longer, Liu Jizhen, Liu Liuer, Liu Biaocheng and other Shanhu leaders, but they were all defeated without exception. Later, he joined Liang Shidu, but was still sold by Liang Shidu as piglets.

They, the old and the weak, women and children, did not escape the capture of the Tang army. They were captured from the mountains and sold as slaves.

"My great-grandfather built the Great Wall of Yulin for the Sui Dynasty in the early years. Later, the Turks entered Yang Guangyu Yanmen. My great-grandfather was also recruited by the court to serve as the king of Qin. At that time, the general of the king of Qin was Yun Dingxing, and his deputy was Li Shimin, who is the current Tang Dynasty. Son of Heaven, it’s a pity that my great-grandfather died at the hands of the Turkic people in the city of Yanmen at the age of Qin Wang, without even a penny of compensation…”

She paused slightly, "Later, my grandfather brought Ye and Uncle to join Liu Liulong's army, believing what he said would not allow the Han people to oppress again,
Grandfather, Aye, uncles, all dead.

Later, my brothers went out of the mountains again, they joined Liu Biaocheng's army, they were recruited by Li Jiancheng, and then the elder brother and 6000 people were all murdered, and the second brother fled with Liu Biaocheng to Liang Shidu, and they were falsely accused of rebellion and died. , the third brother and the others were later killed by Li Daozong's troops to attack, "

·······
Very poor.

But the world is like this, caused by the times.

The Han people kidnapped them as slaves and slaves, and tricked them into being cannon fodder, but when the mountain beard was tyrannical, it still looted everywhere, rebelled at every turn, killed officials and broke down the city, and also robbed money and people.

Almost all the men in Helian Jinzhu's family are dead, and the family has long since ceased to exist.

Old and weak women and children were also captured, robbed and sold as slaves. She hated the world, the Han people, the Tang army, and the Tang officials.

But Huaiyu only believed part of what she said.

Today's assassination is by no means a simple personal hatred, it is an organized and precise operation.

It is impossible for ordinary people to organize so many assassins in Lingzhou City to launch such an attack, let alone she is just a slave.

"How did you contact those assassins?"

He still doubted Li Daozong. After all, this slave was from Li Daozong's governor's mansion, and she had just rewarded him, but he met an assassin halfway, and the woman stabbed him with a knife.

"I have nothing to do with them, and I don't know them."

"Continue." Huaiyu sneered.

Helian Jinzhu ignored his sarcasm, and said indifferently, "Today Li Daozong asked us to entertain you and act as a meat screen for you, which made me feel even more ashamed, but you actually let our warriors fight each other just for fun, It made me even more resentful.

Later, Li Daozong directly rewarded us like cattle and horses. I heard that you are still the governor of Yanzhou, and you will definitely continue to torture our tribe like those dog officials.
I made up my mind to kill you. When I came out, I took a short knife that I had secretly hidden before. I thought I would look for an opportunity to kill you in the future, but unexpectedly I would be attacked by an assassin halfway, so I shot directly. I didn't expect you to be prepared, what a pity. "

After the woman said this, she was very calm.

"Give me a treat."

He looked at the woman's expression and felt that it was not a lie, but the result was really hard to believe.

"Do you have any family members, where are they?"

"Maybe my aunt, sister, sister-in-law, niece, etc. are still there, but they have long been reduced to slaves of your Han people."

"If you can cooperate well with me, I may be able to help you find your family members, and even give you your freedom," Wu Huaiyu poured her another cup of tea, "Of course, the premise is that you have to tell me the truth, and you can't have any to deceive and conceal,

Now, I will give you another chance, you tell the truth, your true identity, who you were ordered to assassinate me, how did you contact those assassins..."

Helian Jinzhu smiled disdainfully twice.

"I'm telling the truth. Of course, if you want to hear other things, I can also say, for example, I was sent by Master Liang, or Li Daozong. Which one do you want to hear?"

Wu Huaiyu shook his head.

This woman was a little too calm, as if she was a specially trained dead soldier, which made him even less able to trust her.

"In this case, then you should go and reflect on it first." Huaiyu called Chen Sheng, and specifically confessed that he would dig a nest for Helian Jinzhu, with only one person in it, and then lock her in it, and take the soil. Cover up, leaving only a few air holes to breathe.

"Choose a place with no one around, and make sure that she can neither see the slightest light nor hear the slightest sound in it, so that she can reflect and think seriously in it."

Without fear, the woman walked away with her head held high.

Huaiyu sat there frowning.

"Where are the other captured assassins, what did you confess?"

"My lord, we are incompetent. These assassins hid poison in their mouths earlier, and after being captured, they all bit the poison and committed suicide without asking any questions."

Those few turned into cold corpses without explaining a word, but this one said a lot, but Huaiyu couldn't believe her words.

There was an impasse.

"My lord, Li Dudu is here." Deputy Wu Huaiyun of the personal army came in to report.

"How many people did you bring?"

"Only brought more than ten riders."

Wu Huaiyu thought for a while, and got up to welcome Li Daozong into the camp.Although Li Daozong, the envoy of Helian Jinzhu, was very suspected of murdering him, but Helian Jinzhu did not admit that he was Li Daozong's person, and he had no other evidence now. Li Daozong came to visit in person, so there was no reason not to see him.

He also wanted to meet Li Daozong to see if he could see something related.
