Chapter 110: Coming Home
Although Sima Xin's words are all speculation and inference, everyone feels that there is a feeling of seeing the sun.
If it is really as Sima Xin said, then this Li Yang's scheming is too terrifying!
Originally, in everyone's eyes, he was a young man who was arrogant and arrogant, but now he suddenly found that this person's mind was as scheming as an old fox, and everyone would have a feeling of gasp.
Zhang Han was also stunned, and then said: "Even if he wants to seek the position of lieutenant of the garrison of the Beijing Division, it depends on whether he has the ability, if he really relies on 500 people to defeat the thieves, His Majesty let that Han Xin take charge of the position of lieutenant of the garrison of the Beijing Division, and I, Zhang Han, am also convinced." ”
The generals nodded thoughtfully.
In the military, what they admire is not the way of scheming, but the way of using soldiers, if Han Xin can really do what everyone can't do, everyone will naturally have nothing to say.
Of course, if this conversation of the Junzheng Temple was heard by Li Yang, he would definitely be surprised, and Sima Xin would be extremely surprised.
Because, Sima Xin's speculation and inference turned out to be all right!
Yes, the reason why Li Yang accepted this challenge was to reduce the number of casualties among the soldiers and civilians of Great Qin, which was on the one hand, but in fact, the deeper reason was to plot for the position of lieutenant of the garrison of the Beijing Division.
Bringing tens of thousands of people and letting Han Xin go to quell the chaos is also a small achievement.
Only by bringing 500 people to quell the chaos can Han Xin's military talent be revealed, so that the emperor was surprised and entrusted with reuse.
In order to lay out the strategic plan of the world in the future, the army must lay out a chess piece of its own as early as possible, so that it can be used by us in the future.
A few days ago, the officials of the Imperial Historical Observatory impeached themselves for collusion between officials and businessmen, which is the best example.
No matter how much power you hold, as long as you don't have someone who faithfully supports you, all the high power is like the emperor's new clothes, and Li Yang now seems to be in charge of the law, but in fact he has nothing. Therefore, if you want to realize your ideals in the future, whether it is the law or the government, or the military and government, you need to lay out your own people, so that your own strategy in the future will not be reduced to empty talk.
This is a very, very important thing for Li Yang, so this time to send troops to quell the chaos, this kind of thing involving the use of troops to fight, in Li Yang's view, is the most worthy of striving for and grasping, a great opportunity to lay out the whole situation.
As long as he can redress the thieves, Han Xin, his own person, can be regarded as having a foothold in the military and political system.
Such a good opportunity, how could Li Yang not want it?
Of course, if you really want to compete with the generals, it will seem too ambitious, so you can brag a little bit and look like you are fighting with Zhang Han, but you can want to cover it up.
It's just that Li Yang probably never dreamed that this thought of his own, no one even Feng Qujian could see it, but it would be seen by a martial artist.
In fact, Sima Xin in history, although not as famous as Meng Tian, Zhang Han and others.
However, he is indeed a person who is not simple.
It can be said that the Qin Dynasty was ruined, and he also had his share.
In the original history, Sima Xin assisted Zhang Han in the battle, after the defeat of the Battle of Julu, Zhang Han, Sima Xin, and Dong Fei surrendered to Xiang Yu, and after the fall of Qin, the Qin people Zhang Han, Sima Xin, and Dong Fei obtained the land of Guanzhong. They are King Yong, King Sai, and King Zhai, known as the Three Qins.
And why did Sima Xin be a deputy general of Zhang Han, and after he surrendered to Xiang Yu, he would be as famous as Zhang Han?
In fact, Zhang Han Tou Chu is Sima Xin's ghost.
According to historical records, Sima Xin has always been Zhang Han's cronies, and when Zhang Han was defeated after the Battle of Julu, Zhang Han sent Sima Xin to Xianyang to see Zhao Gao, but Sima Xin didn't see Zhao Gao, so he ran back and told Zhang Han, saying that Zhao Gao wanted to kill you. There was a tiger in front of Zhang Han and a wolf in front of him, and he simply surrendered, and the Qin Dynasty was cut off in this way.
One possible explanation is that when Zhang Han was defeated after the Battle of Julu, Chu Fang privately contacted Sima Xin through Cao Ji and formulated a plan to force Zhang Han to rebel. Because although Zhang Han has been defeated repeatedly, there are still more than 200,000 strong troops under his command, and it is very difficult for Xiang Yu to completely defeat the cunning and warlike Zhang Han. It is the best choice to be able to surrender without a fight.
Sima Xin made great contributions to Xiang Yu's victory in the world, so he was ranked among the princes.
After Zhang Han surrendered with more than 200,000 strong troops, Xiang Yukeng killed all the Qin army, leaving only Zhang Han, Sima Xin, and Dong Peng, which also shows that Zhang Han's surrender is not so simple.
From this point of view, Sima Xin, a figure who has always been ignored, is also extremely scheming, and directly killed Zhang Han and the last 200,000 Qin troops of the entire Qin Dynasty! Of course, it was at this moment that the Qin Dynasty was truly finished.
…………
After several days of marching, a few days later, Li Yang finally entered the Great River Valley with 500 Yulin troops.
Li Yang did not choose to go directly to Huiji County, Pei County, and Surabaya County to quell the rebellion, but directly entered Dongyang County.
Yes, his own fiefdom.
In fact, Dongyang County, Huiji County, Pei County, and Surabaya County are all adjacent, and in the words of later generations, they all belong to the jurisdiction of Jiangsu Province.
Dongyang County Shouwang Youxian, learned that Li Yang, the prime minister of the Central Minister, personally took command of the rebellion this time, and would pass by Huaiyin County, the county to which he belonged, and took the county officials to Huaiyin County early, and greeted him outside the city.
The people of Huaiyin County spontaneously cleaned the roads in the city, gathered outside the city to wait for their Yanghou Dajia, and saw the true face of this benefactor.
In the hearts of the people of Dongyang County, they are all grateful to Li Yang.
Dongyang County, as Li Yang's fiefdom, Li Yang not only exempted the people of Dongyang County from paying taxes for three years, but also implemented a new policy of project bidding in this famine, and used businessmen to revive the disaster and save their local people.
Now, the men of the family have gone to work on the construction site, and the old and weak women have received money and food from the merchant and have been able to survive.
With such a great grace, how can you not greet Yang Hou when he learns that Yang Hou is coming?
Outside Huaiyin City, it has gathered into a sea of people.
Suddenly, I don't know who it was, Yao pointed ahead and shouted: "Look, it's coming, Yanghou and they are coming!" ”
Suddenly, countless people hurriedly raised their eyes and looked into the distance......
I saw that behind the hill in the distance, a cluster of black shadows appeared in everyone's sight.
As the cluster of black shadows got closer and closer, everyone gradually heard the earth-shaking sound of horses' hooves, and as far as the eye could see, a torrent of black flags and black armor was surging towards this side.
When the torrent was closer, everyone saw that at the front of the black torrent with black flags and black armor, a white shadow was particularly eye-catching.
Dressed in imposing armor, riding a white horse, and armed with an iron sword at his waist, this man is like the pride of the sky, majestic and imposing.
When everyone was amazed, this group of Yulin army formations arrived.
Suddenly, the stiff rope was tightened, the horses neighed in unison, and the cavalry Yulin military formation composed of hundreds of people stopped in front of everyone.
These Yulin troops, because of the obvious difference between the armor on their bodies and the border army and the garrisons in various places, not only the armor is black and heavy, showing more might, but also under their helmets, there is a black iron mask, the black mask is hideous and terrifying, it looks terrifying, like a devil running out of hell.
Coupled with the fact that there was a long feather on top of their helmets, each of them did not look like soldiers at all, but like a large phalanx of mighty generals.
In short, these people, who had never seen the Yulin Army, were all silenced by this kind of killing atmosphere.
But in front of these devilish phalanxes, the handsome white horse boy made people feel a trace of gentleness.
As everyone knows, this young white horse general is the famous Prime Minister of Great Qinzhong, Yanghou.
"Dongyang County Shouwang Youxian, see Prime Minister!"
When Wang Youxian saw Li Yang, he smiled happily, and hurriedly bowed and greeted.
The county officials and Huaiyin county officials behind him also bowed down one after another: "See the prime minister."
"Huaiyin people, welcome Yanghou!"
Tens of thousands of people also bowed their hands and shouted together, and the momentum shook the sky!
When Li Yang heard this deafening sound, his heart was also extremely excited.
In his own fiefdom, Li Yang was still very moved to get such a warm welcome from the people.
I can be regarded as "going home" this time!
