As soon as Tuoba Heng's voice fell, Jiang Wenwei stood up and said: "The king, the minister recommended Han Xizai, the head of the household department, to rush to Xuanzhou to preach the king's kindness and comfort the place. The people of Xuanzhou have always been obedient, and this rebellion must have been provoked by some people. Since ancient times, the Lord of Benevolence and Righteousness will surely be able to subdue all the people, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment. If... If you blindly fight, I am afraid that it will hurt the king's holy heart. ”

Although Jiang Wenwei's words went around and around, the meaning was obvious, and he showed his attitude: Don't send troops, send an important minister to Xuanzhou to pacify the people, and the rebellion should be put down. Since ancient times, the people will only rebel if they can't survive, and now the people of Xuanzhou have broken some money, but they haven't reached that level.

Without the need for soldiers, this military expenditure has been reduced a lot, which is exactly in line with Fan Qian's intentions. Fan Zhen, as the finance minister of Da Chu, exhausted his efforts all day long for this money and food. A while ago, the State of Chu finally earned a lot of money from Li Tang, but it has cost a lot to win this battle, and more importantly, this Li Tang's territory was taken over by Da Chu. In addition, the money for lobbying activities, the condolences for demotion, the bounty for the victory of the army, the resettlement fee for moving the capital, and the relief fund for the drought in Yuanzhou and other places, a chaotic rush of brains poured in, and money was asked for money everywhere, and the treasury of the Chu State was deflated. In Fan Zhen's heart, don't fight, stop and stop, wait for five years, ah, no, as long as it takes three years, our Dachu can change, but whether it is the Northern Expedition, the Eastern Expedition, or the West, we have money in our pockets, and we are not afraid to spend it!

Fan Zhen struck while the iron was hot, stood up and echoed: "King, Lord Jiang is reasonable, most of these people are unarmed women and children, even if they are strong men, they are just trying to have strength, this... This is going to be a battle, and the sergeants are fighting for merit, I'm afraid... I'm afraid that after a fight, Xuanzhou won't be able to recover for three years! King, the people are the foundation of the country, you can't kill them like this! ”

Ma Yun nodded slightly, he quite agreed with Jiang Wenwei and Fan Zhen's words, and more importantly, these ministers said that they were rebels, and in Ma Yun's view, it was a peasant uprising, Ma Yun secretly thought in his heart: How can I say that there is a Taoist monarch, how can there be a peasant uprising below? Even if the people's lives are a little worse, but this has a Mao relationship with me, and the poor life is Li Jing's business, I have only occupied Jiangnan for less than two months.

What's more, the current situation in the Chu State, Ma Yun knows very well in his heart, on the surface, it seems that the military is at its peak, and no one dares to suppress it, in fact, the Chu army is now quite tired. Moreover, the main force of the Chu army (50,000 people) was stationed on the front line of Huainan under the leadership of Zhu Yuan, responsible for the defense of Huainan on the one hand, and intensified the rectification of Li Tang's Huainan army on the other hand, while the men and horses in Jiangnan, 20,000 people were stationed in Hongzhou under the leadership of Ma Guangmeng, and the troops and defense of Hongzhou, Yizhou, Yuanzhou, Qianzhou, Jianzhou, Jianzhou, and Jiangzhou were rectified, leaving 30,000 people, and 10,000 people were stationed in Jinling; 10,000 people were stationed in Xuanzhou under the leadership of Cao Bin, the defense envoy of Run (Runzhou) and Chang (Changzhou), and 10,000 people were stationed in Xuanzhou under the leadership of Qian Qing, defending Wuyue on the one hand and Jinling on the other.

In this way, in the Jiangnan region, the army of Chu is extremely empty. This is also because Jiangnan is newly occupied, and in the Lingnan area, the garrison is even less, only 3 divisions under Xu Wei's account. Due to the rapid expansion of the Chu State, it is now completely in a dangerous situation of walking a tightrope. On the Huai River line, the army of Chu was the largest, Shannan Dongdao (Tangzhou, Dengzhou, Xiangzhou), plus Huainan Province had a total of 90,000 regular troops and 30,000 militia soldiers, and the entire army in Jiangnan was only 90,000 (excluding the navy).

Due to the small number of troops, when Ma Yun arranged the first-line defense of Wu Yue, he adopted the policy of "defending the city but not the county", that is, only defending the important state capital, and for the counties below the state, he only relied on these people to control the place. This caused the situation of Zhang Ren's rebellion this time, and the situation of Liankeshu County!

Jiang Wenwei and Fan Zhen on the government side may not know about the situation of Chu Jun, but how can the two privy envoys not know the current difficulties. Li Xiang and Wang Yun glanced at each other, as the boss of the military, Wang Yun stood up and said: "King, the minister thinks that he should focus on suppression. You may not know that when Xuanzhou goes east, in the area of Jinling, our army has a very large number of troops, but when you go west, you go to Xizhou (now Xixian County, Anhui), Raozhou (near Poyang County, Jiangxi), and Xinzhou (now Shangrao, Jiangxi), where our army's military strength is empty, and each state has only one regiment of troops, and it is more than enough to defend itself, and it is difficult to break the enemy. Jiangnan West Province is under the account of Ma Guang and Ma Admiral, and the territory is very large, but the troops that can be relied on are only 20,000. The minister thought that our army should take advantage of the fact that the strength of the rebels has not yet been greatly demonstrated and the influence on internal and external affairs has not yet expanded, and quickly cut through the chaos and defeat the rebels in one fell swoop! If you send important ministers of the court to appease, once you miss the opportunity and make the thieves bigger, the court may fall into passivity! ”

Wang Yun's words are also very reasonable. Jack Ma hesitated. What does the state of Chu need most now? What we need most is an excellent situation of stability and unity, and it needs a period of peace of three to five years to develop and strengthen itself. As far as guarding Jinling is concerned, at least 30,000 horses are needed. However, there are only 20,000 horses in the entire Jiangnan West Road, only 30,000 horses in the Lingnan East and West Provinces, and then 20,000 horses in Jingnan Road. If the rebels in Xuanzhou still really marched westward, it would be passive for the Chu State. If you want to put down the rebellion, there is no extra army!

"Wang Shumi, are you too worried? Let's not talk about whether the rebels in Xuanzhou will go west, even if they go west, the imperial court can also take the first step and order Admiral Ma, who will deploy the troops of Jiangnan West Road, block the road for the rebels to go west, and trap the rebels in Jing County, when the time comes, they have no way out, what else can they do except peace talks? Jiang Wenwei said. This old man is the same: it should be cared for and not suppressed.

"Xu Aiqing, what do you mean?" Ma Yun glanced at Xu Zhongya, who was silent, and asked.

"Minister, the minister is wondering why Liao Jusu and the others of Jing County will join the rebels instead of fighting to the death?" Xu Zhongya did not answer Ma Yun's question directly, but threw out a question. Xu Zhongya's words were light, but he said a fact: Zhang Ren is just a butcher, how could he gather so many people at once at the beginning, besides, even if the new policy of Chu State is a bit of a loss for the people, it is better than when Li Tang was like waste paper! In addition, you have to take into account that this is the period of the Five Dynasties, the people's respect and fear of officials, that is very powerful, if you rely on the city wall of Jing County, plus those head-catching officials, organize some people in the city, to deal with those rebels who do not have siege equipment, you can definitely hold on for a period of time, and when Qian Qing's army arrives, it is not easy to extinguish the rebels?

As soon as this question was raised, Li Xiang and Zhao Pu "groaned" in their hearts, and their eyes couldn't help but glance at Ma Yun. Ma Yun on the throne didn't really realize the meaning of Xu Zhongya's words, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said coldly: "Isn't this Jingxian county commander Liao Jusu claiming to be protecting the country?" Presumably he has a grudge against us Da Chu. With such an opportunity to resist, of course he will not let it go. Oh, by the way, Zhao Aiqing, what has Li Jing been doing in Changsha recently? ”

Ma Yun's tone was very flat, and he couldn't hear the likes and dislikes in his heart. However, Zhao Pu has been following Ma Yun for many years after all, and he guessed Ma Yun's mind with a roll of his eyes, bowed down and said: "King, the unreasonable Hou Li Jing is in the mansion in Changsha, closed doors, and nothing more than writing poetry all day long." Well, when the Taishang King was in Changsha, he also talked about poetry with the Marquis of Reason, and the Marquis of Reason also wrote a word, and the King Taishang praised him very much, praising him as the first-class poet of his time. ”

Jack Ma laughed.

Xu Zhongya stood up and continued: "King, the Li family and his son have been in power in Jiangnan for nearly 3o years, and they have been giving small favors and small favors. The people of Jiangnan are fooled by it, and the minister thinks that the Li family is in one day, and the people of Jiangnan are afraid that it will be difficult to obey it. Isn't it... ”

Xu Zhongya's words were rambling, but the meaning was obvious, he advocated doing it to Li Jing's family. The change of dynasty has never been warm-hearted, even the kind-hearted Li Yu (Li Jing's father) has not imprisoned his boss, King Wu's family, and let them fend for themselves.

Ma Yun shook his head and categorically refused: "The reason why Li Jing lost the country is nothing more than three things: first, he is not virtuous; Second, neglect of national affairs, and third, lack of sympathy for the people. The reason why our Great Chu was able to sweep the south of the Yangtze River is that he is sympathetic to the people, diligent in national affairs, and virtuous among the ministers. The stability of the country lies in the people, and water can carry a boat and also overturn a boat. As long as the people support us, how can the Li family resurrect? Ma Yun first brought a high hat to the ministers below, and then boasted about himself. This time the tone was raised so high, Xu Zhongya was silent.

Ma Yun continued: "Even if it's that Zhang Ren, hehe, does he really want to restore the country for Li Tang in his heart?" If he was really loyal and patriotic, why didn't he rise up when our army marched into Jinling? ”

Xu Zhongya thought for a while and said, "King, I'm afraid this is the idea of Liao Jusu, the county commander of Jing County!" Master Jiang, have you heard of this Liao Jusu? ”

Everyone's eyes brushed and turned to Jiang Wenwei's body again. Jiang Wenwei hesitated for a moment and said: "This Liao Jusu was originally a school scholar (an official who surveyed the classics in the school hall belonging to the prince's East Palace), this person is generous and generous, sincere to people, but he is also a frank gentleman, but he is just upright, he has always said anything, and he doesn't care about other people's faces at all, he... He later collided with the unreasonable Hou, so he was relegated to Chuzhou as a Sima, and later, he was demoted to Jing County to make a county order... "Things gather by like, and people are grouped. When Jiang Wenwei said Liao Jusu, there was a lot of emotion in his tone, but he also understood in his heart that since this Liao Jusu was doing something to protect the country, he was an important figure in the rebels, and this kind of person would not end well.

Ma Yun was stunned for a moment, and said: "According to what you say, this person is also a direct minister." It's a pity, it's a pity! But he was a little tired in his heart, in this case, Jiang Wenwei praised Liao Jusu so much, which can know that Liao Jusu is really good, but unfortunately, such a good person, why do you have to rebel against me?

Seeing Ma Yun's look of pity, he didn't seem to realize the problem yet. Xu Zhongya said slowly on the side: "Your Majesty, the political envoy of Jiangnan West Province is the original Qianzhou Assassin Wang Renyi, from the observation envoy to the assassin history of each state, it has been carefully screened by the king, but there are basically no major changes in the county orders and county officials in the counties below, which... ”

Ma Yun's eyes widened suddenly, Liao Jusu of Jing County was in the same stream, and the county orders of Sui'an County and Ningguo County were also in the same stream, which... TMD, this, if the county orders of Jiangnan West Province are all reversed, won't it become a rural area surrounding the city?

Ma Yun immediately said: "Zhao Aiqing, you immediately summon Cao Yun, the capital of Jingnan Province, and order him to send someone to closely monitor Li Jing, and if there is any change, he will be punished for rebellion!" Kindness... Then he sent an edict to Ma Guangmeng, the capital of Jiangnan and West Province, and ordered him to join Wang Renyi, if there is any change in the subordinate prefectures and counties, he can cut it first and then play. Kindness... In the edict of Lin Renzhao, the commander of the First Army of the Navy, he was ordered to lead the 1oooo Navy's army to enter Dongting Lake immediately and support Hongzhou at any time. Jiama Guangmeng's military department has the rank of squire, and controls Lin Renzhao. ”

Ma Yun's orders came down one by one, and fools knew what Ma Yun had in his heart. Jiang Wenwei opened his mouth, and finally swallowed the words back, this order was obviously aimed at demoting, he himself was in a place of suspicion, it was not easy to speak! As for Fan Qian, his eyelids drooped downward, and he began to count the money in his heart.

Tuoba Heng stood up and said, "Great King, the minister thinks this... It's all a matter of chasing after the wind. There is a Liao Jusu in Jing County, and not necessarily other county orders are all raccoon dogs! Especially in Jiangnan West Road, our army is famous and has defeated Li Tang's 150,000 army, where people may not have the courage. Moreover, the minister thought that there was no suspicion in employing people, and there was no need for suspicious people, since the king had retained them, it was better to believe them. When the imperial examination is opened, and the virtuous talents are provoked, it is not too late to replace them one by one! ”
