In the battle of Gaoling, the news of the Tang army's victory over the Yuan army's defeat flew to the four places of Guanzhong like wings. The officials of the Yuan court everywhere were in a panic, as if the end was coming. The people of Guanzhong were jubilant and high-spirited.

In fact, the reputation of Li Luo's Holy Lord Renjun has long been resounding in Guanzhong. Although the officials and pride of the Yuan court hated Li Luo to the core, the common people looked forward to Emperor Hongwu.

Before Li Luo's army arrived in Chang'an, the surrounding Yuan court officials ran away one after another, and the originally arrogant Haoqiang and the village security chief A also suddenly hibernated, not daring to show their teeth and claws to the people.

Just when Li Luo's army went south to Chang'an, Wu Yan, the general of the Tang Army, also captured Lantian Pass, and his troops divided into two routes, one way to capture Tongguan, and one route was led by him to besiege Chang'an.

On the morning of September 28, Li Luo's army arrived outside the city of Fengyuan (Chang'an). In the afternoon, Wu Yan led an army of 30,000 to cross the Baqiao Bridge and also approached the city of Chang'an.

At this point, the main force of the Tang Army attacking Guanzhong and the partial division will meet!

The soldiers and horses of the Tang army under Fengyuan City reached 100,000.

Since the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, for the first time in more than 160 years, the Han army has come to Chang'an.

Li Luo rode on the big food BMW sent by Kublai Khan, looking up at this condescending and glorious city, and his heart was very excited.

This is the ancient capital of Chang'an!

Although it has long been not the imperial capital, and the palace in the city has long ceased to exist, the momentum of this city is even more significant!

The biggest feature of Chang'an City is that the topography of the city foundation is high, which is basically built on a wide high wall in the south of Weishui, overlooking the surroundings and bullying the eight wildernesses.

Surrounded by eight waters, gathering qi and hiding wind, excellent feng shui, it deserves to be the first capital in China.

Majestic and magnificent!

Even if the city wall has long since lost the height of Chang'an City, it is still majestic.

You must know that this is still Chang'an City after it was rebuilt and reduced by the warlord Han Jian at the end of the Tang Dynasty, and you can imagine how big Chang'an City would have been without the shrinkage.

"Woo woo woo-" The horn in the Tang army blew slowly, as if to inform the people of Chang'an: The Tang army has arrived!

The dragon and phoenix of the Tang lord are auspicious, as well as the phoenix battle flag of the Tang army, and the banner embroidered with the big Tang characters, hunting and fluttering in the autumn wind, the army is majestic, and it is not moving like a mountain.

"Chen Wuyan, meet Your Majesty! Hooray, hooray, hooray! After Wu Yan led the army to arrive, he led his generals to visit him as soon as possible.

Li Luo dismounted and helped Wu Yan and the others, "Qing and the others have worked hard." Lantian Pass is not easy to fight, how many casualties are there? ”

Wu Yan said: "Back to Your Majesty, more than 2,700 were killed in the battle and more than 4,200 were wounded. Added up to the casualties, there were seven thousand in total. Zhang Yong, who divided his troops to fight Tongguan, is estimated to lose a lot of soldiers and horses. The minister is incompetent, and he has failed to live up to His Majesty's trust. ”

Lantian Pass is indeed not easy to fight, and it is already good to defeat Lantian Pass with 7,000 casualties.

If you conquer a city, you will always die.

Li Luo calculated, plus the casualties of the main army, even if the casualties of the righteous army are not counted, the total casualties of the Tang army in this attack on the pass are more than 20,000.

Overall, it's still within his acceptability.

"You guys fought well, and you are not guilty." Li Luo comforted Wu Yan and the others, "Tongguan is a dangerous pass in the world, and it is indeed difficult to fight from the east of the country." But Zhang Hui is from the Guanzhong to Tongguan, which should be easy. ”

Tongguan belongs to Guanzhong, and it is Guanzhong that is protected. From the inside of Guanzhong, of course, it is much easier.

"Your Majesty." Zhu Qian played, "Now Shen Huahua has gone to Xiao Guan, Zhang Yong has gone to Tong Guan, and the four levels in this pass will soon be in my hands." However, the Yellow River in the east still has to be guarded against. ”

Li Luo nodded, of course he would not ignore this. Counting up, the Hedong Yuan army should be about to cross the Yellow River, and for today's plan, the only way to do this is to send generals north to the Loess Plateau to defend the Yellow River.

The Qin and Jin dynasties were bounded by the Yellow River. The Yellow River between the Qin and Jin Dynasties, the river surface difference is large, the water flow is very turbulent, far from the Yellow River that lacked water in later generations, this section of the Yellow River is more dangerous than the Yangtze River at this time.

The Yellow River is dangerous, and it is not said in ancient times.

Therefore, when the ancient northern armies crossed the Yellow River, most of them chose to cross the river from the northern section of Henan, and rarely from Shanxi.

But natural danger is dead, and people are alive. If it is not defended, the army of Yuan Ting Hedong will soon cross.

The Qin-Jin section of the Yellow River is relatively easy to cross, that is, Mengmen Ferry, Fengling Ferry, Xikou Ferry and other ferries, but Fengling Ferry is near Tongguan, so it is mainly to guard other ferries in the east.

"Wu Yan, you repair for one day, set off tomorrow, defend several major crossings of the Yellow River, and prevent the Yuan army from Hedong from crossing the river." Li Luo ordered.

"No!" Wu Yan ordered, "Your Majesty, the ministers don't need to be repaired, and they will set off today." ”

"Okay." Li Luo agreed. Defending the Yellow River is a big deal, and the sooner the better.

Just an hour later, Wu Yan once again set up camp north to defend the Yellow River.

And Li Luo also sent people to shoot arrows into the city, telling the city officials that if they don't open the city, surrender, kill!

At this time, the Yuan Court in Fengyuan City, Shaanxi Right Cheng Balutai, was already in a hurry.

Shaanxi Iron Cavalry was wiped out in Wulingyuan, Pingzhang Ha Chiya and others died, and now he has the highest official position in Shaanxi Province, but where can he still hold Fengyuan City?

There are only 40,000 Han troops in Fengyuan City, including 20,000 Kelqin troops and 20,000 Zhelimu troops (Henan Han Army).

However, if you can't keep it, you have to keep it! The Hedong army is about to cross the river, and as long as it holds on for ten days and eight days, it will be able to hold Fengyuan.

Balutai said to a group of Han generals: "You are all loyal ministers of Dayuan, and at the moment of crisis, of course you must live and die with Dayuan..."

Before he finished his sentence, suddenly a Goshk rushed in panting, his head was full of sweat, "Right official, go from the north gate quickly!" Gu Ma Sili, a wolverous lamb, opened the city gate and let the rebels into the city! ”

What the!

Barutai jumped up violently, revealing a cannibalistic gaze, "He's a Mongolian!" How could he take the initiative to open the city and surrender! Are you mistaken! ”

A Han general named Wang Xie blurted out: "Right official! That's right! Although Gu Ma Sili is a nation, he has always been disloyal to Dayuan! His father is Ali Buge's henchman guard! His father and brother died at the hands of the Great Khan! ”

"That's it!" Barutai suddenly came to his senses, he knew the past of Qianhu Gu Ma Sili, and the imperial court also knew it. Therefore, although Gu Ma Sili is from an authentic Mongolian hundred households, he has not been reused.

As a result, he was obviously a Mongolian general, but he became the general who commanded the Han army, and he was only a thousand households, and he didn't get ten thousand households.

Balutai knew that Gu Ma Sili had resentment in his heart, and he didn't say a lot of strange things on weekdays, but he never thought that he would surrender to Li Luo. After all, he is a Mongolian nation, and in the final analysis, he is more reliable than the Han general.

There were a lot of subordinates under Ali Buge's command back then, and now they are not working well for the Great Khan? And no one rebelled. Everyone is a precious Mongolian, no matter how dissatisfied they are, they should treat Li Luo unanimously.

But who would have thought that the Han generals had not surrendered yet, but Gu Ma Sili, as a nation, had surrendered!

"Let's go, right official! The rebels are in town! Wang Xie shouted, and then hurriedly rushed out of the yamen, shouting loudly: "Guards and guards, what about Lao Tzu's horse!" ”

The Han generals of the Kirkin army and the Jelimu army originally wanted to defend the city well, but now that the city gate has been opened by the Mongols themselves, how can they defend it?

I can't hold it.

What are you waiting for if you don't run?

Street fighting? Joke, it's Li Luo!

That is a ruthless man who dared to raise troops to resist Dayuan, fight in the ring with the Great Khan, and fight from Jiangnan to Guanzhong!

"Damn! Damn it! The officials of the Yuan court scolded angrily, and while hurrying to the stable of the Yamen, they stepped on their horses in embarrassment, and fled to the north city in a panic.

Chang'an City is very large, and although the rebels entered the city, they did not arrive so quickly for a while. They fled in time, and there was still time.

As for the families in the city, they can't take care of it.

The right Cheng Balutai, who is over 50 years old, took out the momentum of following Kublai Khan to attack Dali, and desperately beat the horse and galloped. He can't fall into the hands of the rebels!

The people on the street saw a group of Yuan court officials galloping wildly and avoided them one after another.

The civil and military officials of the Yuan court scrambled to flee from the northern city, while the Tang army also swarmed in from the southern gate. Tens of thousands of Han troops are leaderless, how to resist? Only the instrument can be surrendered.

"Slave Gu Ma Sili, meet the Great Khan!" Gu Ma Sili, who surrendered in Kaesong, took the initiative to throw down his weapon, respectfully came to Li Luoma, and crawled in the dust.

Li Luo's guards looked sideways, and they couldn't understand why Gu Ma Sili, a Mongolian general, would take the initiative to open the city and surrender.

Li Luo looked at Gu Ma Sili and said in Mongolian: "Even if you don't surrender, I can quickly conquer Chang'an." But you opened the city, and it is also a credit. I ask you, why did you open the city? ”

Chang'an City has the spy activities of the Special Investigation Bureau, but it has not yet reached the point of convincing the Mongolian generals to surrender. According to the information sent by the spies, it was Liu Da, a thousand households of the Han army, who originally rebelled, but Liu Da had not yet opened the city, but it was Gu Ma Sili, a Mongolian, who opened the city.

Therefore, now Liu Da is very depressed, originally he sacrificed the city gate, it must have been meritorious. But halfway through, he killed an ancient Ma Sili and snatched his credit.

Gu Ma Sili replied: "The slave hates Da Yuan, and the slave's father and brother all died at the hands of Da Yuan." Although the slave was a Mongol, he wished that the Great Yuan was dead. ”

Li Luo understood, "Your father and brother are Ali Buge's people?" ”

Gu Ma Sili nodded, "Exactly." Kublai Khan was a usurper, and he was not qualified to be a Great Khan at all. He also destroyed several khanates, and even broke the rules. ”

Li Luo asked, "What is your official position?" ”

Gu Ma Sili showed an embarrassed look, "The slave is just a thousand households of the Zhelimu Army. ”

A Mongolian general, but a thousand households of the Han army, is rare.

Li Luo's heart suddenly brightened. This Gu Ma Sili, father and brother died at the hands of Kublai Khan, but that belongs to the internal struggle of the Mongols, Gu Ma Sili will never betray the Great Mongolia with this alone.

It should be that he doesn't get important and is disgruntled. Coupled with the hatred of his father and brother, he took the initiative to surrender.

"Get up." Li Luo didn't have a good impression of this kind of person who took the initiative to open the city and surrender and betrayed his own tribe. But this kind of people also have to use, the so-called "thousands of dollars to buy horse bones", in order to recruit more Mongols.

Speaking of which, the Mongolian generals who took the initiative to surrender, Gu Ma Sili was the first. It was Zhezha, and it was Li Luo who wrote a letter to persuade him to surrender through friendship.

"Gu Ma Sili, you temporarily take your old department and guard the city gates." Li Luo said lightly, "I will remember the reward for you, go." ”

"Wow! Xie Da Khan! The minions will be like faithful hounds, helping the Great Khan guard the city gates! Gu Ma Si stroked his chest and saluted in thanks. He didn't know that Zheza and others had honored the title of Li Luotian Khan, but he knew that Li Luo should be called the Great Khan according to the rules of the Mongols.

As soon as the Tang army entered the city, it was learned that the provincial officials had fled from the north gate. Zhu Jaw immediately ordered the cavalry to pursue.

After the order in the city was maintained, a large group of people surrounded Li Luo and entered Chang'an City openly.

In 3984, on September 27 of the second year of Hongwu, Li Luo, the Tang lord of Guanzhong, finally restored Chang'an.

Since the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, Chang'an City, which had fallen into the hands of foreign races for 160 years, returned to the hands of the Han people again.

The spies who have been lurking in Chang'an City for several years have long secretly done a lot of propaganda. As soon as the Tang army entered the city, many people swept the roads under the influence of spies, welcomed them in the middle of the road, and even set off firecrackers.

Li Luo came to the Pingzhang Yamen in the city in the grand welcome of the people in the city.

The Pingzhang Yamen immediately became a temporary palace and was guarded by guards.

Soon, a holy decree came out, telling the people in the city: abolish the name of Fengyuan, restore the name of Chang'an, and establish Chang'an as the capital of the Tang Dynasty!

As soon as the holy decree came out, the people of Chang'an were suddenly boiling.

Datang... The capital is Chang'an!

Chang'an City has become a Beijing master again!

Although the people of Chang'an have been ruled by foreign races for more than 100 years, they all know the past of Chang'an, which was the time when they were the masters of Beijing. It can be said that the people of no place miss Li Tang more than the people of Chang'an.

Women and children know it!

Even in later generations, Xi'an people still remember the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, Chang'an City now has a registered population of 185,000, 1,300 monks, and 2,400 slaves from the families ......of Yuan court officials."

Some agents of the Special Investigation Bureau have already presented the statistical books of Chang'an City.

“… The official treasury has 840,000 stones, more than 370,000 taels of silver, and 1,210,000 yuan in banknotes. These are the autumn taxes that are going to be taken to the capital......"

Chang'an had a population of one million in the Tang Dynasty, but now it is less than 200,000. However, the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, and this population size is still a big city.

After reading the book, Li Luo ordered the money, grain and materials to be stored one by one, and then appointed a new branch jinshi with the army to serve as the head of each square in Chang'an City.

In addition, Jiang Bu, a minister who accompanied the army, was appointed as Jingzhao Yin and established the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen.

Jingzhao Mansion is in charge of the civil affairs and public security of Chang'an City, just like the Han and Tang dynasties. However, all the official servants were abolished, and the police officers of the Tang State should be used.

Zhu Qian said: "Your Majesty, now that Chang'an has been restored, the rumors in Guanzhong can be determined, but there are few soldiers in Guanzhong, will Your Majesty temporarily return to Jiangling, and then come to Chang'an after Guanzhong is stable?" ”

Li Luo shook his head, "Guanzhong was initially decided, the people were not at peace, and the situation was not stable, and it was precisely because of this that I had to personally guard Guanzhong." ”

"Wei Su proposed to draw out 3,000 police officers to come to Guanzhong, and transfer the craftsmen of the Ministry of Engineering to Chang'an, preparing to build the Chang'an Palace."

Wei Su, as the new imperial minister, is very powerful, after he received the order, he took the dragon and snake, and soon drew up the holy decree, Li Luo used the seal, and quickly sent it to Jiangling.

Then, Li Luo issued several decrees in succession, dispatched troops and horses to the prefectures and counties in Guanzhong, suppressed the officials of the Yuan court, took over local power, and prepared to implement the Juntian Order.

Li Luo didn't have time to enjoy the famous scenic spots in the city, so he issued orders and decrees, and was very busy.

The next day, tens of thousands of Tang troops were divided into dozens of units, and regiments were taken as units and sent to various places.

On the third day, two good news came together. First, Zhang Yong had already occupied Tongguan, and the Kwantung Yuan army could no longer enter Guanzhong. The second good news was that most of the Shaanxi provincial officials of the Yuan court who had fled were caught up and escorted back.

Just when the Tang army occupied Chang'an and divided its troops everywhere, the Yuan court Zhou went to the county office, and Wang Shilang, the county magistrate, was sighing for a long time, with a sad face.

Wang Shilang felt that he was really unlucky.

He was originally a scholar of Sichuan and Shu, and he was familiar with the sages and rats. After the Tang army occupied Sichuan and Shu, because he was dissatisfied with the content of the imperial examination and the rank of the official conferred by the Tang court, he went to Liang to participate in the imperial examination in a fit of anger.

Sure enough, he won the jinshi and became the magistrate of the beam.

Then the good times didn't last long, he was the magistrate of the county for less than a year, and Daliang was destroyed by the Tang State, and he also lost his official position.

When he wanted to take the Tang Imperial Examination again, he was told that he was not qualified for the examination because of his bad deeds.

Under his anger, he simply came to Guanzhong with great difficulty, and with his relatives who were officials in Guanzhong, as well as greedy for money, he finally managed to obtain the official position of this Zhou Zhi county order.

originally thought that he was an official in the impregnable Guanzhong, but finally came to the end of his bitterness.

But who would have thought, this magistrate has only been sitting for half a year, and the Tang army has actually entered Guanzhong again, and his official position... It's going to fly again!

The fairy board of the turtle son, what kind of thing is this! Why is Lao Tzu so unlucky? Did the ghost touch his head?

Although Wang Shilang was born in Hanshi, he had no reason to hate Tang Ting and Li Luo, but his hatred for Tang Ting and Li Luo now was no less than that of the Mongolian nobles and Haoqiang.

"Hongwu! You tyrant of a thousand people, faint king! Wang Shilang scolded fiercely in his heart, hatred monstrous.

"County magistrate, let's go! Taking advantage of the fact that Fenglingdu has not been blocked by the Tang Army, it is necessary to flee to Kanto quickly, otherwise it will be too late! The entourage was sweaty and said to Wang Zhixian, who was not leaving, "The Tang Army is about to arrive!" The town guard (county Daru Huachi) has already run away on horseback! ”

Wang Shilang sighed, and could only order someone to pack his soft bags and hurriedly leave the county office.

When he left, he also took away the official seal of the magistrate of Zhouzhi County.

"Hmph, I went to Kanto, and Lao Tzu is still an official!" Wang Shilang reluctantly glanced at the county government and went straight out of the east gate. He planned to cross the river from Fengling and leave Guanzhong.

He is already a Dayuan official, and he has entered the official registration in the Dadu Officials' Department. As long as he arrives in Kanto, with the money looted in the past six months as a county magistrate, as well as his own ability, it is not difficult to change places to become an official.

Less than half a day after Wang Shilang left Zhouzhi County, a team of Tang troops arrived. The Tang army swaggered into the county seat, and then a military township official who came from Yizhou became the official position of the county order.

The Tang army posted notices to reassure the people, seal off the official treasury, and maintain order. Immediately afterwards, the Tang army was divided into several squads and went to the countryside, and before they arrived at one place, they removed the local chief armor and replaced him with the Tang State officials who accompanied the army.

Such a scene is being staged in all counties in Guanzhong.

The Tang army vigorously took over the local power and established the county and rural power of the Tang court.

It's not that they don't want to resist, but they don't dare.

The Tang army implemented the Juntian Order in the south, suppressed the rebellion of the big clans, and killed the heads of people, these bloody things, they had heard about them for a long time.

So many wealthy families in the south rebelled, and the result? The puppet Tang Dynasty is getting stronger and stronger, and Li Luo's emperor is becoming more and more stable. And the wealthy families who resisted are all finished.

Da Yuan had so many iron cavalry in Guanzhong, and all of them were wiped out. If they resist, isn't that looking for death?

Forget it.

The situation is stronger than the man. Although it is better to have ninety percent of the land confiscated and donate a large amount of money and food than to rob the family and kill the head.

With the lesson of the southern wealthy clan's rebellion against the Tang Dynasty, they did not dare to resist anymore.

In front of the butcher's knife of the Tang Army, these century-old wealthy families in Guanzhong chose to give in one after another.

By mid-October, the registered population of Guanzhong counties had finally been counted.

Shaanxi Province is a large province with a population of millions. Although Guanzhong occupies only one-fifth of the area of Shaanxi Province, it is the richest region, accounting for half of the province's population, with a total of more than 2.4 million people.

The number of acres is still being counted and has not been reported.

Li Luo, who was sitting in Chang'an City, received household registration statistics, and finally ordered the recruitment of new soldiers and the reorganization and training of the righteous army.

There are many pastures in Guanzhong, the men in Guanzhong are strong, and many people are good at horseback riding. Li Luo was ready to recruit 50,000 cavalry seedlings. When northern Shaanxi, Longdong and Longxi are restored, tens of thousands of cavalry can be recruited.

If you go north to take the Hetao area, Datang will not worry about cavalry and war horses.
