In mid-August, in Kaifeng City, Zhao Kuangyin also received all the military information about the Southern Han Dynasty in the hands of the Privy Council. Zhao Kuangyin and Long Yan Dayue, he heard that Shao Tingxuan, the former Southern Han Dynasty, had rebelled against the Han Dynasty, and Liu Gang also sent Chen Yanshou and Li Tuo as the supervisors, and Pan Chongche as the envoy to pursue the rebels. Zhao Kuangyin then issued an edict and ordered Pan Mei, who was still in the south, to lead the Song army to meet him, and make sure that Shao Tingxuan reached the north of Wuling safely.

The military situation from Xingwangfu to Kaifeng has arrived in the Liangcheng Inn, and Zhao Dezhao has also received the news of the rudder of Changchun Hall in the Southern Han Dynasty, and the situation in the entire Southern Han Dynasty has suddenly changed greatly, all of which is also due to the advice of Wu Yongzi, but I heard that several eunuchs in the Southern Han Dynasty are in the midst of infighting, Zhao Dezhao is naturally very happy, the enemy's internal is not monolithic, as long as he orders someone to do it, he will also gain some.

Then Zhao Dezhao also asked about the recent situation in Liao, and the military intelligence report from the north said: Since Yelujing heard that Yarix was captured alive and the army was defeated, he once again gathered his army to go on the expedition, and this time he planned to use the Wuku Department to the Hedeluo generation as a breakthrough point, and sent Yile Xiba and Changsi to attack it. In late July, the Wuku Department plundered the residents of Yulinyu in the north of Beijing, Yelu Jing sent Lin Ya Xiao Gan, Langjun Ye Lu Xian to ask for it, but it also ended in failure, since then Yelu Jing and the Wuku Department and the large and small chamber Wei began to be in a state of confrontation, the entire Liao State was in a state of civil strife, Ye Lu Jing drank every day for fun, killed dozens of people, feasted and drank......

The war in Liao is endless, and the people are also displaced and homeless, some of the victims have also retreated to the Song State, and now it is almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there are many victims around the capital. In ancient times, floods and droughts, locusts, and famines were inevitable in governing the world...... In the early years of the Great Song Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty system was followed, and the East and West Futian Courtyard was set up in Kaifeng, Tokyo, to accommodate the widows, loneliness, and the sick, but it was only available in Beijing and was not implemented throughout the country.

The Great Song Futian Courtyard can only accommodate some of the victims, the other part went to home outside the city, and some of them were ordered by the emperor to be accepted in Kaifeng Prefecture and counties, but there were more victims from afar, and now Zhao Dezhao couldn't find a good way to do it, and Wu Lingqing's side was almost there, and some had nowhere to go for the time being.

Zhao Dezhao deliberately withdrew thousands of yuan to buy wasteland and build townhouses in remote places outside the city to shelter orphans and other refugees and hungry people displaced by the war, and at the same time gave them some technical work, such as making soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste and other primary products.

In addition, Zhao Dezhao bought them some chickens and ducks, let them engage in the breeding industry, and then took some small money from it, and reported the matter to Zhao Kuangyin, with the support of the emperor, the officials of Kaifeng Mansion have generally gone a lot smoother.

Zhao Dezhao recently planned to use his strength to establish some private similar welfare institutions in some places, but mainly to accommodate orphans, equivalent to the Salesian Bureau in the later Song Dynasty.

However, he did not plan to implement it in the capital, after all, various forces were entrenched in the capital, and in the capital, there were already many hungry people and refugees outside the city.

Therefore, in the next step, Zhao Dezhao plans to buy some manor wasteland plots in other states and counties outside the capital, and then shelter the surrounding orphans...... Then teach children literacy, Ming poetry, book etiquette and so on.

In addition, the manor also sent some warriors from Changchun Hall to teach them to exercise their physique, and act as Mr. Xi Wu and the manor's guardian.

Zhao Dezhao is convinced that since he is reborn into this era, he must shoulder the mission of rewriting history.

……

Half a month later, it was the end of August in a blink of an eye, at this time in the southwest, Shao Tingxuan led his army all the way to the northwest, about to reach the boundary of Zhenzhou, and the mountains and rivers of Zhenzhou are dangerous, known as the "gateway to northern Qian", it is a good place to hide soldiers, and last month Zhenzhou Thorn Shi Tian Jingqian attached the Great Song Dynasty, just to accommodate the army brought by Shao Tingxuan.

This goes to Zhenzhou, the mountains are high and the water is long, and the north of Zhenzhou is Shudi, Shao Tingxuan has led the army to the boundary of Zhenzhou, and Tian Jingqian, the assassin of Zhenzhou, entertained them.

Later, in order to settle Shao Tingxuan, Shao Tingxuan was asked to establish a military village on the periphery of Zhenzhou, so Shao Tingxuan led his own soldiers to hide in the deep mountains and old forests and establish a military village here. At the same time, the grain dispatched from all over the Southern Han Dynasty also arrived here, and Shao Tingxuan received the grain and straw, and he was naturally grateful to the King of Wei.

And the Southern Han Dynasty conquest army pursued behind Shao Tingxuan was also in the search for rebels, this time Chen Yanshou, Li Tuo was ordered to supervise the army, and Pan Chongche was used as a solicitor to replace Shao Tingxuan's position, this time to pursue Shao Tingxuan, to be honest, Pan Chongche is more inclined to Shao Tingxuan is innocent, what kind of person Shao Tingxuan is, he Pan Chongche knows, if there is no Shao Tingxuan fighting on the front line, the Liu Han Dynasty may have one less pillar of the country, and he Pan Chongche himself was disguised because he was suspicious, and he was discouraged and worried in his heart, Quite uneven.

But at the moment, Liu Gang thinks that Chen Yanshou and Li Tuo are the supervisors, monitoring him all the time, and also to prevent him from rebelling. Moreover, Chen and Li have been urging themselves to march, hoping to rescue Gong Chengshu as soon as possible.

To tell the truth, this trick is useless to himself, Pan Chongche has long been cold to the Southern Han Dynasty and Liu Gangjunchen, Liu Gang did not kill himself presumably because he was just afraid of his military achievements, but he did not grasp the evidence of his rebellion.

The further Pan Chongche led his army to the northwest, the more difficult the roads became, with muddy roads, high mountains, and sparsely populated populations. The scouts sent out by Pan Chongche did not receive some news from Shao Tingxuan's army, but many soldiers in his army began to flee, and some rumors were not conducive to Pan Chongche's news, saying that Pan Chongche also wanted to follow Shao Tingxuan's back path.

Chen Yanshou and Li Tuo persuaded Pan Chongche to order the soldiers who defected and spread rumors to be beheaded, but Pan Chongche did not follow what the two said, but understood the soldiers in the army and moved them with affection, while Chen Yanshou and Li Tuo took advantage of Pan Chongche's sleep to detain him and seize his seal, on behalf of the imperial court to assist in military affairs, supervise the generals, and act as the supervisor of the army.

Pan Chongche never imagined that he was actually controlled, and Chen Yanshou and Li Tuo, the two of them, the power of the commander of the situation, and all the rumor-mongers in the generals were killed. Chen, Li two extreme practices also provoked the army of the generals to rise up to resist, they have endured enough in recent years, if the king regards the minister as a mustard, then the minister regards the king as a revenge, since Liu Gang ascended the throne, pampered the eunuchs, killed the important ministers and good generals, and regarded the countrymen as pigs and dogs, they these generals have long been unable to stand it, why Shao Tingxuan rebelled, is it because of an anonymous letter, he suffered from Liu Gang's suspicion, and was poisoned by wine, if they don't rise up to resist now, the end is not much better than Shao Tingxuan, and Pan Chongche was actually Chen, Li and his wife were detained.

The army was in chaos, and the situation gradually became uncontrollable by Chen and Li, who were finally beheaded by an unknown young general, and only flew through a blood mist in the night sky before they died.

After that, the prison army was dead, and the officers and soldiers in the army immediately released Pan Chongche, Pan Chongche saw that Chen and Li were dead, and it was not easy to explain to the court, but there was still his own family in the Xingwang Mansion, which was what Pan Chongche was worried about.

Unexpectedly, just as Pan Chongche was thinking, Pan Chongche unexpectedly heard the voice of his family, Pan Chongche turned around, and saw his wife and children walking into the army......

After Pan Chongche talked to his wife and children, he found that he had no way out now, and he had to conform to the general trend of the world and return to the Central Plains in the north.

The next day, Pan Chongche took the heads of Chen and Li to pay tribute to his dead brothers, and then went to Zhenzhou.

——

In Xingwangfu, Liu seemed to realize that Shao Tingxuan's rebellion would only weaken the resistance of the imperial court, and that the Southern Han Dynasty had faced wars with several neighboring countries since its founding. Now there are strong Song Dynasty and weak Tang Dynasty in the north, Dali in the west, and Annan in the south. In order to counter their neighbors, successive Southern Han rulers took great pains to expand their armies. One of the most important steps is to form an elephant array with war elephants as the main combat tool.

Now in the Southern Han Dynasty, there are nearly 1,000 war elephants, Liu Gang boasts of the heavy armor war elephants in the country, well-equipped, but once the war with the Song State starts, it seems that this number is not enough.

On this day, Gong Chengshu and Xue Chongyu went to his dormitory, and immediately ordered the two to purchase a large number of war elephants from Annam, Dali and other countries at any cost, and at the same time hired local ethnic minorities to teach the Southern Han army how to control war elephants and the tactics of using war elephants.

In the past, Gong Chengshu and several others had to make a lot of money from the money allocated by the imperial court, but this time Gong Chengshu seemed to realize that the opportunity to overthrow Xue Chongyu had come.

This time Gong Chengshu came back, Xue Chongyu didn't want Gong Chengshu to come back alive, although they were all Liu Gang's henchmen, but there were more people competing for favor, and the benefits would be unevenly distributed, and Gong Chengshu was the head of the inner servants, and he was also the most important person in Liu Gang's palace, Xue Chongyu was always staring at this position.

The two have always been smiling since they met these days, and they each disobeyed each other, but Xue Chongyu didn't want to fight with him, and he didn't think that danger was coming.

As usual, Xue Chongyu spared no cost, and he was about to start reaching out again, he sent his henchmen and servants to work on the account books, deliberately overquoted the price of the war elephant, and transferred the adult elephant and the young elephant to register, both prices are different, the quantity is not the same, Xue Chongyu tried to fish in troubled waters and confuse the public.

On the other hand, Gong Chengshu was very restrained and did not do so, he secretly gathered many henchmen to find a lot of evidence against Xue Chongyu, and the ministers and people who had a grudge against Xue Chongyu in the past became his helpers.

The curtain has opened, and the next thing is waiting for the appearance of the singing......
