Chapter 383: Ningzhou rebels again
In the next few days, everything was as Wang Shichong had envisioned, and the orders began to be executed efficiently and quickly according to the guidelines that Yang Jian had already set.
The first is the reward for the soldiers of Ningzhou and Guizhou, which was officially issued the day after Wang Shichong's face to the saint:
The commander of the Ningzhou Ping Rebel Army, the general of the Zhuguo State, Shi Wansui, made meritorious contributions, fought for thousands of miles, captured the enemy chieftain, and surpassed Zhuge in his merits.
The deputy general of the Ningzhou Expeditionary Army, Yang Wutong, the assassin of Minzhou, was meritorious in begging for thieves, and was promoted to the general of Zuo Wuwei (Shangda General), and the county prince of Wenxi was rewarded with 30,000 yuan and 500 pieces.
Ningzhou conquest of military etiquette, the military department of the driving department of the division of the foreign lang Wang Shichong, the thief has merit, strategizing, loyal and commendable, with its merits, plus the same ceremony, the official remains the same, the reward is 30,000 yuan, and the gift is 300 paragraphs.
Ningzhou conquest army joined the army, the former Xiaoguo army Fengche Du Lieutenant Zhang Xutuo, trapped in the battle to the death, Wei County ranked first, captured the enemy chief with his own hands in the pursuit battle, and beheaded 13,000 in the jumping battalion, the southern barbarians were frightened when they heard it, and with their merits, the special Jin was the same as the Shangyi, and the reward was 30,000 yuan, and the gift was 300 paragraphs.
The following Duan Da, Mai Tiezhu and others were also rewarded with money and goods, and they were not promoted.
As for the road in Guizhou, Zhou Fashang was awarded the post of general of Shangkaifu for his great merits, and was given 50 slaves and maids, 150 taels of gold, and 150 catties of silver.
This reward decision was completely expected by Wang Shichong, and now the news of the Ningzhou rebellion has not yet come, and the reward for Shi Wansui is completely based on his merits in this battle. A pure soldier who is greedy for money and profit. He had no political ambitions. Outstanding generals are rare in the world, but unfortunately his mind is full of money, and now what he does has been completely mastered by Yang Jian, but he doesn't know that a catastrophe is coming.
As for his ability to be promoted to one level in this battle, it can be regarded as an unexpected joy when he arrives at Shangyitong, except for Yang Wutong in this battle, he is only one level away from leaving the house. If you are promoted to another level, you will have the authority to recruit fierce generals and strategists who really belong to you.
Wang Shiji did not get any merits at all due to his slow movements in this battle, so he almost got nothing when he was rewarded, but only symbolically gave 10,000 yuan and a consolation prize of 100 pieces of silk silk, which was regarded as his hard work all the way to Lingnan.
After the reward, a few people were happy and a few people were sad, and the five generals such as Mai Tiezhu were neither promoted to officials nor made a fortune this time. The mood was obviously not high, and Wang Shichong beckoned them to his Bliss Villa. A good set of services, and afterwards everyone gave 50,000 yuan, all of which were withdrawn directly with a single voucher in the place where each person worked, which made the five people happy and embarked on the way home with joy, and agreed not to leave a few brothers behind next time there is such an opportunity to conquer.
In the next few days, a series of follow-up orders began to be issued, and Yang Wutong received an order the day after the reward, and immediately went to the land of Bashu to lead the army to quell the rebellion of Shanfang, Wang Shichong knew very well that what General Yang really wanted to pacify was not Shanfang, but the Ningzhou rebellion that would soon come.
The next thing was that Wang Shiji took the initiative to write a letter, claiming that he had contracted the epidemic in the Lingnan expedition and asked to go home to recuperate, this time Wang Shiji's recital was directly handed to Yang Jian through Yang Su, and Yang Jian didn't say a word, with a stroke of the pen, Wang Shiji returned home to live idlely.
Two months later, autumn went to winter in the blink of an eye, and it was the end of the year, just three days before Chinese New Year's Eve, news finally came from Ningzhou, and the barbarian tribes in Ningzhou finally came to rebel again, claiming to be the king of Nanzhong, uniting his brother Jiaozhen, and Li Fozi, the thief leader of the Jiaozhou rebellion, killed the Sui Dynasty's garrison officials left in Ningzhou, as well as the symbolic two hundred guards, and passed on the first department, and for a time the barbarian departments in Ningzhou responded one after another, and the land of the east and west was once again no longer owned by the Sui Dynasty.
Wang Shichong has been cautious in the past two months, working on time every day in the driving department of the Ministry of War, and there is almost no communication with Li Jing, Li Jing's sense of smell is also very sensitive, and he guessed something from Su Xiaoci's dismissal, and Wang Shichong is also tacit, every day is just a routine, and never communicates private matters.
When the news of the rebellion came on this day, Wang Shichong and Li Jing were working in the military department, and when they heard the news from outside, Li Jing finally couldn't help it, and sighed: "Alas, I can't hide from what I should have come." ”
Wang Shichong stopped the pen in his hand, raised his head, and smiled slightly: "Did the pharmacist expect it early in the morning?" ”
Li Jing nodded: "Actually, I have this premonition since I was released from Gui Xuan, he is not Meng Huo, and even Zhuge Kongming, after returning to Bashu, he will take Meng Huo to Chengdu for a turn, and he must leave enough defensive troops in Nanzhong, but this time Marshal Shi was confused and released these two rebels, and he was full, I am afraid that General Yang Wutong was transferred to Bashu two months ago, just to pacify the prevention of this Ningzhou rebellion." ”
Wang Shichong didn't answer this, he knew that Li Jing must also have his own sources, and the generals of Guan Long have always had an extraordinary sense of smell and judgment about this kind of military action and the general's redeployment, although Li Jing didn't know what Yang Jian was discussing that day, but he could also guess a rough idea from various personnel orders.
But Wang Shichong knew very well that he couldn't reveal any inside story at this time, he smiled: "I have a similar opinion to the pharmacist, General Yang is well versed in the art of war, and he personally participated in the whole process of counterinsurgency last time. ”
Li Jing was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps outside, frowned, and stopped his mouth, Wang Shichong looked towards the door, but saw Liu Shu, who was wearing a four-grade red official robe, accompanied by several guards, hurriedly coming.
Liu Shu's current official position is the squire of the military department of the fourth grade, and the judgment of the military department is still the secretary, this judgment refers to the low-level official position of the high-level position, so although the military department is the purple robe of the third grade, Liu Shu can only wear the fourth grade of the official now.
After Liu Shu entered the door, Wang Shichong and Li Jing both stood up and saluted, but Liu Shu waved his hand, he has always paid attention to etiquette, but he is slow to swallow his temperament today, but he is in a hurry, and after coming in, he said directly: "You two hurry up and prepare, allocate funds and allocate grain, just the result of the court's discussion, Yang Wutong, the general of Zuo Wuwei, led 20,000 Shu soldiers to Ningzhou to quell the rebellion, and the grain, grass and military salaries were first supplied by Shu, and the military department here should immediately keep up, and the military salaries for three months should be transported to Shu within these two days." ”
Wang Shichong and Li Jing nodded, and Wang Shichong said, "I'll handle it immediately, does Liu Shangshu have anything else to order?" ”
Liu Shu frowned, and said to Li Jing: "Li Yuanwai, you can handle this matter first, if you lack manpower, you can be seconded to other departments, and the emperor has a decree to ask Wang Yuanwai to go to the Liangyi Palace." ”
Wang Shichong's heart moved, and he asked, "Does Liu Shangshu know what happened this time?" ”
Liu Shu said coldly: "Ningzhou rebelled, Long Yan was furious, in addition to summoning the three prime ministers into the Liangyi Palace, he also summoned the former commander of the Ningzhou Expeditionary Army, Long Live the History of Shangzhu Guoshi into the Liangyi Palace, in addition to the king, you also experienced the battle of Ningzhou, in addition to you, Xiaoguo Army Shangyi and Zhang Xutuo were also called together, I think the emperor wants to ask you in detail about the situation at the time, you have to answer carefully!"
Wang Shichong sighed secretly in his heart, as Li Jing said, it should come sooner or later, Shi Wansui has been proud for two months, it can be described as high-spirited, every day in the house to meet guests, and also took advantage of the excitement to come to his own archery range to play two, this time finally happy and sad, Wang Shiji, who smelled the rumors, resigned very smartly to protect himself, and General Shi Da is still dreaming of being reused and leading the army when he fights the Turks, and I don't know what Lu Dao's punishment for him will be today.
Wang Shichong thought for a while, and said to Li Jing: "Pharmacist, it's hard for you to go here, I'll come when I go." ”
Li Jing smiled slightly: "Okay, think about it before you speak." Wait for you to come back and have dinner together. (To be continued......)
