Before this, Wang Guangxing, the former commander-in-chief of the Xiangyang Army, was appointed by the Yongli Emperor as the commander of Yunxiang, and the former generals of the Great Western Army, He Zhen and Liu Tichun, who were stationed in the downstream Xa County, can now come in handy.

Looking at the staff officers handing over the information of Wang Guangxing, He Zhen, Liu Tichun and others, he shook his head and said: "Everyone, why does the emperor not know his relatives like this?"
What is the merit of this Wang Guangxing and others, they were appointed as the governor of Xiangyang and Yunyang.
I waited for the wind to eat and sleep, and fought with the Tartars many times, but in the end, only I had a marquis title on my head, and everyone had not yet been knighted.
Everyone shook their heads again and again and said: "My lord, we will follow the general around, and it will be smoother than any marquis, so why should we offend others."
Yang Xuan smiled and sighed: "In this case, in the name of the governor of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu, you can send an envoy to He Zhenying to ask him to lead his troops to re-enter Xing'an Prefecture and support our army."
Ordered Liu Tichun and Wang Guangxing to lead the army to attack in the direction of Xiangyang and contain the Tartars.
Zhao Ronggui was shocked, looked at Yang Xuan and said, "My lord, why are you asking for soldiers from He Zhen, but why are you using orders from Liu Tichun and Wang Guangxing?"
You need to know that this Liu Tichun and Wang Guangxing are not under the control of the governor of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu. ”
Yang Xuan smiled and said nothing, looked at his staff, and asked, "Everyone, let's talk about it, why does this governor insist on doing this?" ”
Everyone in the tent was stunned, and only a scholar in his thirties got up and replied: "On that day, the Lord led his troops to retreat to Pengzhou, if it weren't for He Zhen's defeat of the Great Western Army, it would temporarily relieve the pressure on the loyal army. ”
Looking up closely, it turned out to be Liu Xuanben (Wu Sangui's staff in history), and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then why do I give orders to Liu Wang and the others at every turn?" ”
Liu Xuanben was overjoyed in his heart, and arched his hand: "Back to my lord, Liu Tichun, Wang Guangxing and others were originally reckless and unruly, if they don't understand the relationship first, I am afraid that in the future, the two of them will lead their troops to flee to other places."
In addition, Wang Guangxing and Liu Tichun both claimed to have 20,000 soldiers and horses, but that was the number of traffickers and pawns, the old, the weak, the sick, the disabled, women, children and children, and the number of soldiers and horses that they could really kill the enemy was only thousands, and the most elite soldiers and horses were counted. ”
Yang Xuan was overjoyed, and immediately ordered Liu Xuanben to go to He Zhen, Liu Tichun and other departments to mobilize soldiers and horses to cut off the grain route of the Qing army.
The envoy had just set off less than five days, and on this day Yang Xuan was inspecting the defense line of the Han River, in these days the Qing army had crossed the Han River many times, but was defeated by the loyal army stationed at the ferry, and now the two sides have been facing each other across the river for more than ten days.
During this time, the Sichuan Navy arrived one after another, although they drove the civilian boats they collected, they established three naval camps together with the infantry army, so that the defensive pressure on the front was slightly eased.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a fast horse running into the army, Zhang Hong took the letter box and checked the roasting seal on it, then tore it open and handed it to Yang Xuan.
Yang Xuan fixed his eyes, his eyes were about to split, one hand held his chest tightly, and he suddenly stomped his foot and scolded: "Pifu is so frustrated, Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu.....
Yin Chengqi was shocked, took the letterhead and looked at it, one was written by Yang Jingxin to Yang Xuan, and he said in tears that his father Yang Zhan was killed by Yuan Tao and Wu Dading.
Now that Yuan Tao, Wu Dading and others have seized the YN Mansion, the * De Department has retreated to the Wuding Mansion and the SC Xingdu Division.
The other letter is written by Liu Liangchang, who participated in the government, after the rebellion of Yuan Tao and Wu Dading, the central Sichuan was shaken, and Li Gande controlled the various departments into Yunnan in the name of the governor of YN
Li Zhanchun and Yu Dahai in eastern Sichuan, with the support of Zhu Rongfan, the king of Chu, demanded that Fan Mingshan withdraw from the city of ZQ.
Everyone was stunned after reading the book one by one, and some even scolded.
After a long time, Yang Xuan regained his composure, and said with a sad face: "Everyone, in order to fight against the Tartars, I have tried our best to fight against the Tartars, and I have been playing the position of General Yang Zhan on that day to enter the YN, mainly because General Yang is sincerely thinking about our people, and during the period of guarding Jiading Mansion, he lent food to everyone and encouraged everyone to cultivate.
I played General Yang as the governor of YN, the purpose of which is to ensure our rear, and everyone also knows why Zhuge Liang was able to rest assured of the Northern Expedition back then, because the southern Xinjiang is stable, if the southern Xinjiang is unstable, the nest may be captured by others.
I said at the time that General Yang was stationed in Chengdu in the first town of Fan Mingshan, so that the rear was worry-free, and I could also concentrate on the Northern Expedition.
I can't imagine that the day of our defeat of the Tartars is the day when General Yang was killed, everyone, now the rear is unstable, let's talk about what to do?
When everyone heard this, some shouted to kill back, while others claimed that the two armies were facing each other along the Han River, and if they were not careful, they would lose their efforts.
Especially Zhao Ronggui, he sighed and said: "My lord, what I admire most about the generals in Sichuan is you two General Yang, who have worked with General Yang Zhan many times in the past, and I can't imagine that he is ..... today."
My lord, but now that we are facing off with the Tartars on both sides of the Han River, we must not let this cause chaos. ”
Seeing Zhao Ronggui say this, everyone knelt down one after another, hoping that Yang Xuan would put the overall situation first, and it would not be too late for him to return to the division after the Tartars retreated.
Yang Xuan thought for a while, stood up and walked back and forth, suddenly stopped, and said word by word: "As the saying goes, Father Qing is not dead, and those things that bring disaster to the country and the people will not only harm the township, but also a disaster in the future."
In the past, we thought that everyone had a heart of loyalty, and we only knew that we had one mind on the Northern Expedition, and we hoped that those things that brought disaster to the country and the people would not stop our Northern Expedition.
Now I can see clearly, Yue Wumu's failure is mainly because he is too homesick. ”
Yin Chengqi arched his hand and said: "My lord, you are the backbone of my 100,000 army, and now that the rear has suffered this catastrophe, what should you do?" ”
Yang Xuan thought about it for a long time, thinking that he still couldn't be too homesick, let alone compromise with the other party, but now that the war in Hanzhong has entered the most critical stage, since there can't be a showdown, how can he counteract?
Returning to Zazhong, in the name of the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, he asked the SC capital to command the Tongzhi Yin Chengqi to return to Sichuan, and sit in Chengdu Fucheng to stabilize the situation in Sichuan.
Cao Xun was officially appointed as the commander of the SC Xingdu, and Yang Jingxin was appointed as the deputy general, and the two were ordered to lead the troops to garrison southern Sichuan to stabilize the situation in YN.
promoted Yazhou to Zhili Prefecture, and ordered Liu Daozhen, the same governor of Chengdu, to take over the position of governor of Yazhou.
Considering the limited strength of central Sichuan, Liu Weiming's 6th town (division), which was resting in Guangyuan, Bazhou, was ordered to deploy defenses along the Jialing River and Qujiang River to prevent Li Zhanchun and ****** from leading troops to fight for ZQ, so that Chen Huaixi led the main force of the naval army to garrison Diaoyu City to ensure the safety of the waterway.
(Historically, Yang Zhan was a famous general in Sichuan, and once defeated Zhang Xianzhong at the mouth of the Pengjiang River to recover Chengdu.) Under his rule, the soldiers were well fed, but they were harmed by Wu Dading, Yuan Tao and others, so that the generals in central Sichuan did not listen to the dispatch and the disputes intensified, and the situation in central Sichuan was difficult to recover. )
