Marquis Lumen gritted his teeth and said, "Soldiers, don't panic! After we defeat the barbarians, we will change our route and head to Ganzhou. We will prepare for a day before advancing! "
Fang Yun nodded. Marquis Lumen was indeed not stupid. He had already realized that the barbarians would continue to launch surprise attacks. Instead of forcing the army to march according to the original plan, it was better to first head to a nearby city to rest and reorganize. Then, through the Divine Temple, they could contact King Chu and the ministers of the imperial court to discuss a better plan or wait for reinforcements.
After days of marching and fighting, the soldiers were a little dispirited. When they heard that they could rest in a nearby city, their morale was greatly boosted.
After fighting for a while, the barbarians left behind many barbarian commanders and generals before retreating.
After the army buried the dead, they rested for a while before changing their direction and heading to Ganzhou.
At night, the army finally arrived at Ganzhou City. Inside the protection of the Divine Temple, everyone was completely relaxed. The army rested and the barracks even held some entertainment activities.
The Ganzhou prefectural magistrate led the officials to comfort the army and improve their meals.
However, everyone seemed to have forgotten that there was a Marquis of Zhujiang called Zhang Longxiang. They forgot that he was left alone in the carriage.
When the condolences came to an end, the Ganzhou prefectural magistrate, who had a good relationship with an old general of the Pearl River Army, smiled and said, "I heard that Marquis of Zhujiang is also in the army. The city has already prepared a banquet for everyone. Why don't we invite him along?"
Wei Changxian smiled and said, "Marquis of Zhujiang has already been grounded by the marshal for disrupting the morale of the army. I think we shouldn't invite him. He will only understand military discipline after suffering a little. "
Han Lin agreed, "The Zhang Residence can be said to be one family with two traitors. You can rest assured that he will enter Ganzhou, but we can't."
The Ganzhou prefectural magistrate looked at Marquis Lumen with a troubled expression.
Marquis Lumen said with a pleasant expression, "Marquis of Zhujiang is staying in the army to research a strategy to pacify the barbarians. I can't bear to disturb him, so let's forget about it. After a few days. I believe he will come up with a strategy to restrain the barbarians. We will wait for him. Let's go. "
"Marquis Lumen is right."
All of the generals in the army followed the prefect to Ganzhou City and held a grand banquet. All of the scholars in the city came to participate in the banquet.
To the human race, all banquets were cultural gatherings. All literary gatherings were inseparable from poems and essays.
Because of military orders, there was no wine at the banquet. Many of the scholars felt that it was particularly boring. Therefore, some scholars proposed to compose poems to praise the army and the King Of Chu to boost the morale of the Lumen Army. This was approved by everyone.
Many young scholars in Ganzhou City were rubbing their fists and rubbing their palms, trying to think of a poem. In order to obtain a Literary Name.
After an hour of preparation, the scholars in Ganzhou City began to compose poems one after another.
Poem after poem appeared at the Literary Gathering. The atmosphere of the Literary Gathering grew more and more intense.
Just as the gathering reached its climax, a thunderous voice spread throughout the city.
"Green hills beyond the mountains and towers beyond the towers.
When will the Dongjiang River Song and Dance stop?
The warm breeze intoxicated the tourists.
Think of Ganzhou as Liuzhou. "
When the voice of "Zhang Longxiang" came out, the banquet fell silent.
Liuzhou was located in the south of Chu. It was a rich land in the past. It was conquered by the barbarians long ago.
The Dongjiang River flowed through Ganzhou and was the source of the Pearl River. It had always been prosperous and had many tourists. Flower boats and pleasure boats came and went.
Many of the scholars present were stunned. They all looked at Marquis Lumen and the prefect of Ganzhou. The intention of this poem was too obvious.
Many people kept thinking about this poem in their minds.
There were many green hills in the distance and towers nearby. When would the decadent sounds of Ganzhou in the Dongjiang River stop? The warm breeze at the beginning of spring intoxicated the tourists. They simply thought that the peaceful Ganzhou was the rich and prosperous Liuzhou of the past.
Marquis Lumen had a head of silver hair. His face was sallow as usual and his eyes were cold.
Wei Changxian was so angry that his lungs almost exploded. This poem was very sarcastic on the surface. It could even be said that it was vicious. It was almost pointing at the Lumen Army and even Marquis Lumen and scolding, "Liuzhou has not been recovered yet, but you are already intoxicated in the spring breeze. You are seeking pleasure in Ganzhou. You are harming the country and the people!"
"Who is this?" a scholar asked in a low voice.
"Judging from the voice, it seems to be from the Lumen Army."
"It should be the voice of Zhang Longxiang, Marquis of Zhujiang. I still remember seeing him a few times in the past," an old scholar in Ganzhou said.
Most of the scholars did not understand what was going on. It was hard to imagine that Zhang Longxiang was not afraid of offending the Lumen Army. He was not even afraid of offending all the scholars in Ganzhou.
A few of the scholars thought that Zhang Longxiang did not attend the banquet in Ganzhou. It was obvious that he was stopped by Marquis Lumen and the others. He was angry and wanted to take this opportunity to vent his anger.
However, it was too vicious!
Everyone was silent after hearing the poem. Some of them were secretly waiting to see a good show.
This poem was not bad and had a deep meaning. It would at least spread to Da Fu or even Ming Zhou. In the future, it would definitely spread among the human race. Many years later, when people talked about this poem, they would definitely criticize the current Chu. As the person involved, Marquis Lumen would go down in history in infamy.
Moreover, many people even suspected that this poem was alluding to the King Of Chu.
Wei Changxian snorted and said, "Zhang Longxiang is arrogant and unruly. What an eyesore. I think this poem is mediocre, so there is no need to comment. Who would like to present a poem? "
Just as Wei Changxian finished speaking, someone suddenly said, "There is a change in the Hanlin Literature Rankings. This poem, 'Lumen Army', has entered third place."
The crowd was in an uproar. Everyone went to hold the official seal.
The rankings of the human race were not completely interconnected. Only a few people could participate in the discussions on the rankings. However, the rankings of the human race were interconnected. As long as there was a good poem or essay, as long as the Notre-Dame did not hide it, it would quickly appear on the rankings for the human race to learn.
The poem itself did not mention a name, but it was already extremely offensive. Now, the name was actually 'Lumen Army'. It could be said that everyone knew that this was Zhang Longxiang attacking and criticizing Marquis Lumen!
Marquis Lumen's sallow face gradually turned green.
If Fang Yun had disobeyed the military order, Marquis Lumen had ways to punish him. However, Fang Yun was using the right that every scholar had. To speak out against injustice, to express one's feelings in poetry.
If this poem was not well written, no one would care if Marquis Lumen wanted to make things difficult for Fang Yun. However, since this poem was on the rankings, not to mention Marquis Lumen, even the King Of Chu could not be convicted.
"How did Zhang Longxiang's thoughts become so nimble?"
"Ten years in prison is enough to change anything."
"That's right. Perhaps these ten years in prison will create a great poet for the human race."
"Although it is not rare for a poem to be on the rankings of the Kong Shengwen Literature Rankings, there are not many of them. In the worst case, it was even interrupted for ten years. I did not expect that before the first month of this year, there would be a poem on the rankings. This is a good thing for the reputation of the Kong Shengwen Literature Rankings. "
"Indeed! The first line of this poem, 'Green mountains beyond buildings beyond buildings', is indeed a good line. Once it enters the ears, one can see the continuous mountains and endless buildings. "
"The second line is a direct question …"
Because it was on the rankings, some scholars in Gan Zhou could not be bothered with Marquis Lumen and began to comment on this poem.
The expressions of the Lumen Army generals became darker and darker. Wei Changxian gritted his teeth.
