Chapter 780: The Situation in the Southeast

One by one, the flying pigeons flew from the southeast and landed in the backyard of the Huapiao, and then one by one the notes were hurriedly sent to the Pingyu Marquis Mansion from the Huapiao, and finally passed to Lotte after secret translation.

Looking at the notes sent by Tu Si, Lotte's brows gradually locked, although the Fang La incident left a mark in history, but the history of later generations mostly touched on it, and even under the interpretation of the Water Margin, the momentum was far less than the Song Jiang uprising, but Lotte really saw the Fang La uprising, and only then did he feel that under the disturbance, Song Jiang and Fang La were not at the same level at all.

The people of the southeast were oppressed by the imperial court for a long time, the people's minds changed, the banner played by Fang La can be said to conform to the will of the people, won the support of the people, and gathered 100,000 people in a few days, the resistance of the squires in the Qingxi Gangyuan area was suppressed by it, and the family property of these squires was used as military funds, and it occupied the northwest town of Qingxi County - Wannian Town, and then 100,000 righteous troops marched to Qingxi County.

After learning that Fang La suppressed many squires in Gangyuan and occupied Wannian Town, he marched to the county seat, Chen Gongguang, the county governor of Qingxi, was frightened and sent people to report to the envoy of Liangzhejiang Road, and Chen Jian, the envoy of Liangzhejiang Road, sent Cai Zun, the governor of Liangzhejiang Road, and Yan Tan, the deputy supervisor, to send 5,000 forbidden troops from Liangzhelu to go to the expedition.

Seeing this news, Lotte couldn't help but sneer, the two Zhejiang roads have been peaceful for a long time, those Taiping soldiers are used to eating Taiping grain, but have they ever seen any battles, Cai Zun, the deputy supervisor of the soldiers and horses of the two Zhejiang roads, and Yan Tan, the deputy supervisor, Lotte is not undealing, not only know that these two people are similar to straw bales, but also know that they drink the blood of soldiers and eat empty salaries, these five thousand taels of Zhejiang forbidden army are not so much forbidden troops as craftsmen, remove the empty salaries eaten by officials, and there can be two thousand people good.

In Lotte's surprise, on December 3, the news from Hangzhou Flying Pigeon was delivered again, and on November 28, the second year of Xuanhe four days ago, Cai Zun, Yan Tan and his soldiers and horses were annihilated by Fang La in one fell swoop in Qingxi Xikeng, not only all his soldiers and horses were destroyed, but the two were not spared. The next day, Fang La defeated Qingxi County, and before the fall of Qingxi County, Chen Gongguang fled and disappeared.

After reading the note, Lotte and Tu Si asked: "In early October, Jiufang La killed Fang Youchang's family, and it has been nearly two months since then, has the court gotten the news of Fang La's incident?" ”

Tu Si hurriedly replied: "Master Hou, the officials of Fang La's two Zhejiang provinces only thought that it was a small civil uprising, but they were just busy dealing with it, and they had no time to play the details to the imperial court, so the imperial court has not yet received an urgent report from the two Zhejiang roads. ”

"I didn't even send a report for two months...... "Lotte couldn't help but sigh.

Listening to Lotte's sigh, Tu Si cautiously reminded: "Master Hou, Fang La's incident is clearly written, Zhu Mian and the officials of Liangzhejiang Road have used the flower stone gang to disturb the people for a long time, and the people are miserable, so they ...... uncovered."

"I forgot, the sash is a terrible play, Ben Hou once used a piece of paper to ask for Yang Jian's life, with the lessons of the past, Zhu Mian and the officials of Liangzhejiang Road will not take it as a warning." Lotte couldn't help but pat his head, and then said with a wry smile: "Now that things are getting bigger, how can this paper contain fire?" ”

"What Master Hou said is true!" Tu Si smiled and praised, and then said seriously: "The envoy of the moon envoy Jin returned to the court, and at the behest of His Majesty, he has signed an alliance with the Jin people, and now the party's Chage is under the blow of Liu Shuai, leading the remnants to retreat to the Uighurs, and the territory of Western Xia is generally calm, Your Majesty and Wang Huang are planning to pass the decree Tong Guan and the Northwest Forbidden Army to rest and recuperate, and prepare for the northern expedition to the Liao State to restore the clouds. ”

Lotte couldn't help but shake his head: "Your Majesty is afraid that you don't know that your own backyard is already on fire!" ”

……

After resting in Qingxi for a few days, Fang La led more than 100,000 people under his command to fight Qingxi, and captured the largest city since the uprising - Mucheng on the 4th, and then easily captured the counties of Shouchang, Fenshui, Tonglu, Sui'an and other counties under the jurisdiction of Muzhou, killing more than 1,000 troops stationed in Xiang.

Then the rear led the main force to the west to attack Shezhou, and conquered it on December 20, and the Song general Guo Shi was killed. Officials from Wuyuan, Jixi, Qimen, and Yixian counties fled when they heard the news. The rebel army then conquered Fuyang and Xincheng, and then returned to the east to march towards Hangzhou, an important town in Zhejiang Province.

It wasn't until Fang La led the crowd to capture Shezhou and returned to the east to conquer Hangzhou, that Chen Jiancai, the envoy of the two Zhejiang provinces, was busy reporting to the imperial court.

……

Pingyu Marquis Mansion.

"Master Hou, something is wrong!"

A report was made in front of the door, and after getting permission, Xu Jiang hurriedly entered the front hall of Yuefu, and before he saw Lotte, Xu Jiang's voice came in.

"Something is wrong?" Seeing Xu Jiang coming in, Lotte was surprised: "I am a great Song Dynasty and the people are safe, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, so what's the matter?" ”

"Master Hou, there are rebellious people on Liangzhejiang Road!" didn't care about the courtesy, Xu Jiang said hurriedly.

Waving his hand, Lotte said disapprerovitically: "There are 5,000 forbidden troops on Liangzhejiang Road, and there are van troops in various places, how can there be tens of thousands of horses, how big a wave can a few chaotic people make." ”

Xu Jiang's face became more and more anxious: "Master Hou, more than ten days ago, the urgent delivery of the two Zhejiang roads was sent to Biandu, and it was passed to Wang Huang's hands......

"Hide it?" Lotte is puzzled.

"Lord Hou has been living at home since he became the emperor, and he has not heard about the affairs of the dynasty for a long time, and it is inevitable that the news will be blocked." Xu Jiang said, sighed again, paused and said: "Since you led the troops to destroy the Xia Kingdom, the Son of Heaven has become more and more obsessed with martial arts, and he wants to restore the clouds, Wang Hao is in charge of the sacracy, and the Jin people have made an alliance with the sea and the Jin people to attack the Liao State in the north and south, Wang Huang has held the holy will, ignored the southeast bandits, and blindly intended to attack the north, so that the southeast bandits are in a big ......."

"Really?" Lotte was surprised again.

General Xu sighed again, showing regret on his face: "The Liangzhejiang Road was reported in Biandu, and was hidden by Wang Xiang, and the thief led hundreds of thousands of bandits to invade Hangzhou, and Zhao Zhen, the governor of Hangzhou, saw that the bandit team was mighty, and immediately abandoned the city and fled, and the Liangzhejiang Road system made Chen Jian and Lian visit made Zhao Yue unable to retreat and was killed by the bandits......"

Hearing this, Lotte's face was solemn, and he stood up and arched his hand: "Lord Chen and Lord Zhao both work with Le, and they know that the two of them are upright, but they don't want to be harmed by thieves, which is really distressing......"

"Master Hou, don't you know!" When Lotte got up, General Xu said: "Those bandits who invade Hangzhou will cut off their limbs and probe their lungs and intestines, or boil them with anointing oil, and shoot them indiscriminately......

The officials in the southeast have oppressed the people for a long time, and the people have always had grievances against the officials, and now there is chaos, and it is normal to have such a move.

Speaking of this, General Xu lowered his voice and said in a voice with a bit of schadenfreude: "Xiaguan also heard that those bandits dug up Cai Jing's grandfather's grave and exposed his bones. and caught dozens of Zhu Mian's slaves in the Hangzhou Mansion Mansion, and they were all skinned and cramped...... The end is miserable! ”

Cai Jing and Lotte have grievances, this is a well-known thing in the court, and Zhu Mian is a well-known thing in the court with Huashigang, which is also a well-known thing in the court, so the two of them are more and more jealous of the officials.

Xu Jiang didn't see him, and Lotte didn't see either, muttering: "Do a lot of injustice......"

After correcting the color, General Xu continued: "That Fang La's invasion of Hangzhou caused the people from all over the southeast to uncover the bandits one after another, making the bandits sit big, and there were millions of people. It is precisely because the king hides and does not hear that the bandits have a chance,

In the north of Zhejiang, there are Suzhou Shisheng and Lu Xinger of Huzhou Gui'an, in the east of Zhejiang, there are Qiu Rixin of Yanxian County, in the south of Zhejiang, there are Xianju Lu Shinang, Yongjia Yu Dao'an, Chen Shishi of Fangyan Mountain, and in the west of Zhejiang, there are Huo Chengfu of Dongyang in Wuzhou, Zhu Yan and Wu Bang of Lanxi Lingshan. At this time, the generals of the Fangla Department in western Zhejiang, Zheng Mowang, Hong Zai and the response team had occupied Wuzhou, Quzhou, Chuzhou and other places, and went down to the Jiangnan Liejun in one go. ”

Although the scale of the exploration in his hands is far inferior to that of the Imperial City Division, he is capable and powerful, and the speed of delivering news is far better than that of the Great Song Dynasty, and most of the Lotte knows what Xu Jiang said.

"Hangzhou is the capital of the two Zhejiang roads, and is the location of the Bureau, the geographical location is very important, Suzhou is the three Wu important places, but also the place where the soldiers must fight, such places are chaotic, and I am in danger in the southeast of the Song Dynasty." Lotte let out a long sigh and asked again, "Now does the Son of Heaven get the news of the southeast civil uprising?" ”

Xu Jiang hurriedly said: "The southeast and other thieves are like broken bamboos, and the southeast is shaking. Huainan sent Chen Yushu to say that the situation was critical and asked the imperial court to send reinforcements. Only then did the Son of Heaven 'get surprised'. ”

Nodding, Le Tianyan said: "Le Mou has Shang Mao De Emperor Ji and has become the emperor's son-in-law, because of the identity restrictions, he just asks about the court, General Xu told Le about this matter, and Le Mou is not easy to express his position." ”

Whether it's an excuse or not, this is the truth, and Lotte directly spread his hole cards and didn't want to ask about the court.

Hearing Lotte say this, General Xu directly explained his intention: "Master Hou, this time the official was instructed by His Royal Highness King Yun to invite Lord Hou to the palace to discuss matters. ”

"Deliberations?" Lotte hesitated.

Xu Jiang hurriedly said: "The southeast thieves are powerful, and they already have millions of teachers, although the Hou Ye is still the emperor's concubine, but you are the emperor's son-in-law, both with the country and with the country, now the court is in turmoil, how can the Hou Ye sit idly by?" ”

Lotte couldn't help but shake his head: "Le has the intention to kill the thief, but how can he ignore the habits of the Great Song Dynasty, since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, you can see that there are horses participating in the country?" ”

Saying this, Lotte Xin understands very well, Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, knows that as his own emperor's son-in-law, he has no chance to deal with the Great Song Dynasty in this life, and this time he will call himself to discuss matters in the future, which is nothing more than to ask for a square strategy to invite favor in front of Zhao Ji, and then threaten the status of the prince.

Xu Jiangxin also understands very well, since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, the concubine is not allowed to participate in the government affairs, just like a pig that is raised, it is occasionally shown in the court, and it is also the annual New Year's Day ceremony or palace celebration, otherwise the new emperor ascends the throne and the old emperor dies and the concubine is buried.

At this time, Shakuchi hurriedly came in and said to Lotte: "Master Hou, there is a palace attendant in the front yard holding an edict, saying that he wants to summon Lord Hou into the palace to discuss matters!" ”
