Chapter 1076: Li Jing's Fierce Dragon Crosses the River
On the sea of Weinan, hundreds of sails are fighting.
Li Jing studied the piece of information in front of him.
The intelligence staff officer persuaded beside him.
"Dashuai, be careful of Feng An, this person may not be credible."
Feng An's brother Feng Xuan rebelled this time, but Feng Ang did not rebel, which does not mean that Feng Ang is trustworthy.
"Feng Xuan has always been a wanderer, and he has rebelled against the Central Plains several times, and he has long been used to it." Li Jing has also been in Lingnan for several years, and he knows very well about these local slang marshals that these people were originally a big clan from the Central Plains to the south, and after several generations of development in Lingnan, they are all extremely strong.
Back then, at the end of the Southern Liang Dynasty, Chen Ba first raised troops to fight against Hou Jing, and his biggest supporters at that time were these heroes from Lingnan, and later Chen Ba first established the Chen Dynasty, Feng An's father Feng Servant, who was only nine years old at the time, took the chiefs of the Lingnan tribes to Jiankang to congratulate, and Chen Baxian also awarded him the post of Taishou.
Nine-year-old Feng Servant was able to confer Taishou, of course, not because he was talented or meritorious, but because at that time in the Lingnan region, especially in the eastern part of Lingnan, Feng Xian and the two families, as a typical example of the Han slang union, had great power and prestige in the local area, and the history records that they had a base of 2,000 miles, more than 50,000 soldiers, and more than 10,000 slaves in the family alone.
It is precisely because of this strength that Chen Baxian also attaches great importance to the local forces of Feng Xian represented by Feng Fu, and specially awarded the nine-year-old Feng Fu as Taishou.
At that time, in the entire Lingnan region, Feng Xian and the two families were the most powerful, and Mrs. Feng, as the old lady of the two families, although she was a woman, she was also a person who stomped her feet, and the whole Lingnan was shocked three times.
As the leader of the slang generation, the Xian family has more than 100,000 tribes and more than 100,000 households, but it is comparable to a small country.
In addition, the Feng family was the representative force of the imperial court in the south, and the Han slang was combined, so the momentum of Feng Xian's two groups can be known.
However, Mrs. Xian's husband Feng Bao and son Feng Fu both died very young, and Feng Xian's two groups relied on this female stream as the leader, and then in Chen Kaiguo and Sui unified the world, this old lady chose the right team, so that she continued to maintain her position in Lingnan, and even in several Lingnan rebellions, she resolutely raised troops to quell the chaos, so it added to the prestige and prestige of her family.
However, as early as the beginning of the Sui Dynasty, Feng Xuan, the second son of Feng Fu, participated in the rebellion several times, and each time the final result was handed over to Mrs. Xian to punish herself, and then the court still gave her an official position.
Because of this, Feng Xuan can be regarded as an alternative in Feng Xian's group, or it may not be without deep-seated arrangements.
Feng Fu has three sons, Feng Xuan is the second, Feng Ang is the third, and the eldest died young.
Originally, Feng Xuan was supposed to be the heir to the patriarch, but because of the experience of rebelling against the imperial court several times in his early years, the old lady finally passed on the position of patriarch to Feng An.
And Feng Xuan continued to become an alternative to the Feng family.
Qinding Lingnan, Feng Ang is the Taishou of Gaoliang County, which is the base camp of the Feng family, and Feng Xuan is the Taishou of Yongxi County. The Leizhou Peninsula of the Feng family was included in Hepu County under the administration of the Ning family by the imperial court. And the imperial court set aside a Yongxi County managed by the Ning family to the Gao family.
Although this division has broken the division of forces in the past, it has not changed the situation much.
Ning Changzhen begged his son Ning Xuan to marry Feng Xuan's daughter and became in-laws.
"Dashuai, I think Feng Xuan was deliberately pushed out by Feng Xian's two families, Xian Baoche was pushed out by them earlier, and the family was divided into two factions, but after Xian Baoche was defeated, the Feng family is now continuing to push Feng Xuan out. In this way, your family will stand on both sides, and no matter what, you will not lose your position. ”
"Feng Xuan now has 20,000 soldiers, but Feng Ang has 50,000 soldiers, and the brothers have more than 10,000 slaves, but the two counties managed by the brothers have only a few thousand registered populations reported to the imperial court, especially Nayongxi County, with a registered population of only more than 1,700 households, but he has more than 20,000 soldiers and more than 10,000 slaves."
That's where these people's confidence lies.
Each county is under the command of several counties, but there are only 1,000 households in the household registration, but the actual situation is that each person has more than 10,000 slaves and tens of thousands of soldiers.
"Actually, I don't know that Lingnan's household registration is chaotic, and many households have no household registration at all, and the so-called household registration numbers are just fooling the imperial court. Let's just say that Feng An, although he is only Gao Liang Taishou, but in fact, he can lead the Han slang in Gaoliang, Zhuya and other four or five counties, and there are more than 100,000 slang bureaucrats under his control, and there are tens of thousands of Han people. ”
Although the imperial court set up counties in Lingnan, this kind of division was not very binding on these slang marshals.
Feng An, who has 50,000 soldiers and more than 10,000 slaves, is actually a soil emperor who commands 2,000 miles, and he is now standing on the side of the court to crusade against his own brother Feng Xuan, who can really believe it.
To put it simply, Feng Xuan rebelled, Feng Ang did not contribute to the work, if Feng Xuan was defeated in the end, the Feng family would still retain power. If Feng Xuan succeeds, then Feng Ang will still be a family by then.
Thinking about it this way, there is a Yongping Taishou Ning Chun on the Ning family's side, maybe this is also the case.
"No matter what calculations the Feng Ning clan makes, they can't calculate Your Majesty's." Li Jing closed the information, "Ning Changzhen, Feng Xuan and others raised troops on the grounds of opposing the abolition of the southern election, and they were bound to fail. After they failed, the forces of the Ning and Feng families would also be greatly damaged, and then the imperial court would be able to further weaken the strength of these slang marshals. ”
"At that time, the eight major separatist forces in Lingnan, in addition to Feng Ning's two families, Li Guangdu was also once the dominant Lingnan, he was based on Yongping, attacked most of Yulin County, and also laid down a lot of territory in Shi'an County, but in the end, he resisted the imperial court, and finally died of defeat, and his Yongping County was also divided into two counties."
When Yang Guang recruited Feng Ang into the court, he served in the court and in the middle of the Han Dynasty, so Xian Baoche took the opportunity to snatch the position of leader, and was later awarded the Gaoliang County Guard.
After the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Feng Ang returned to Lingnan from Liaodong, so Feng Ang and Xian Baoche fought increasingly fiercely, and finally fought against each other.
Feng Ang finally defeated Xian Baoche with the help of the Qin army, and finally Xian Baoche withdrew from Gaoliang and wanted to retreat to the Xian family's base camp, but was defeated by Feng An's Qin army, so Xian was finally recaptured by Feng Ang under Feng's command.
"How long will it take to get to Nanhai City (Guangzhou City)?"
"It's coming."
Li Jing closed his eyes and pondered, Nanhai County, that is, Guangzhou, as the economic core of the land of the mountains, is a place where many parties want to fight, at the end of the Sui Dynasty, all forces repeatedly appeared, you sang and I appeared, although in the Sui Dynasty, Guangzhou's important position was robbed by Guilin, when the Sui took Guilin as its Lingnan ruling center.
However, Guangzhou's status as a transportation center and strategic hub in Lingnan is unquestionable, and Deng Wenjin, Yang Shiluo, Gao Facheng, Xian Baoche, and Feng Ang competed here, and finally Feng Ang led the Qin army south, and finally defeated the other heroes and captured the city of Guangzhou.
However, at this time, the Qin army had arrived, so Feng Ang was unable to occupy Guangzhou in the end, and Guangzhou was handed over to the Qin army.
This time, the imperial court let Li Jing concurrently serve as the Taishou of Nanhai County, which is to hold this strategic point, and it can be attacked and retreated, and today's Nanhai County is not only a strategic point of transportation hub, but also an important node of the Maritime Silk Road.
"Feng An's thirteen sons, I heard that all of them are brave and martial, and this handsome should be a virtuous person for the country, so I recommend Feng An's sons to His Majesty to go to Luoyang, the older ones enter the palace to guard, and the younger ones enter the country to study. Ben Shuai is here, and he also wants to borrow a few Feng Gongzi to be the herald captain! ”
The intelligence staff officer immediately smiled, "This is good. ”
