Chapter Ninety-Five: Su Wei's Decree

At the end of the thirteenth year of the Great Cause, as the rebellion of Lin Shihong and Xiao Mo was quelled by Lu Chang, the Xiaoguo army took advantage of the situation to expand the scope of control, so far everything south of the Yangtze River has been decided.

And Zhang Yu and Xin Wen led their troops into Sichuan, and they had already gained a firm foothold in Shuzhong, and completely cut off all the passages leading to the 800-mile Qinchuan in Shuzhong.

These two were even more desperate, and sent someone to inform Lu Chang that all the existing plank roads had been destroyed, so as not to be accidentally attacked.

If it's destroyed, it's destroyed, and it will be rebuilt in the future, Lu Chang doesn't worry about this matter.

The other generals have completed their respective tasks, the Xiaoguo army has all returned, and the garrisons of various towns have been handed over to the city defense army to garrison.

Lu Chang asked Dong Ren to lead 10,000 troops to garrison Yidu County, which was near Yichang in later generations, and heavily guarded the main road into Sichuan.

In addition, Lu Chang ordered Jiao Zhen and Jiao Hengbo to lead 10,000 troops to garrison Baling County.

Chen Feng and Chen Hongcang led an army of 10,000 to garrison Jiangxia County, Xue Ru and Xue Yongxi led an army of 5,000 to garrison Jiangzhou, Zhang Qiang and Zhang Yonggang led an army of 5,000 to garrison Nanling County, and the rest of the army moved with the Chinese army.

The ground is so big that the army is scattered like pepper noodles, and the more than 100,000 troops are actually not many at all, which is really not enough. Therefore, Lu Chang will continue to expand his armaments.

As a key defense along the Yangtze River, heavy troops had to be sent to guard it, and Lu Chang scattered several capable generals.

The navy was divided into two, one part was located in Dongting Lake, and most of them were stationed in Poyang Lake, and began to expand the navy to train the army.

Lu Chang did not forget about Shen Faxing, and whether he rebelled or not, he had to take precautions. Lu Chang called Xu Zhi, Xu Liqiang and Gong Chen Gong Xiaoxiang over to instruct them, and arranged for them to arrange troops to lurk in the area north of Biling.

After arranging everything, Lu Chang led the Chinese army eastward in mid-February, and before he arrived in Nanling County, he received news that Su Wei, the minister of Jiangdu Chaozhong, came to deliver the decree.

Lu Changzhen didn't expect that this time it was Su Wei who came to deliver the decree, this person is a powerful minister. Lu Chang's eyes began to roll, thinking about how to intercept Su Wei, a capable minister.

Su Wei was once the prime minister of the Sui Dynasty. The word is fearless. His family is a big family of Jingzhao Wugong (now northwest of Shaanxi Wugong). Father Su Sui, a famous minister of the Western Wei Dynasty. During the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Su Wei attacked the Duke of Meiyang County.

The Sui Dynasty was established, and Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian appointed him as the crown prince Shaobao, and also accepted the words and the degree of the book. He built yƬ to reduce the enslavement, which was adopted. Later, he also served as Dali Qing, Jing Zhaoyin, and Yu Shi Dafu. Su Wei was very talented, held important positions, participated in the government with Gao Gong, and worked together to assist Emperor Wen of Sui. All of them participated in the planning. Emperor Wen revised the Sui Dynasty system, and the format of the law was mostly determined by Su Wei.

In the ninth year of the emperor's reign (589), he was appointed as the right servant of Shangshu.

In the twelfth year, it was reported that he had formed friends with the officials who presided over the election, appointed private individuals, and was dismissed from the ranks. Since then, he has been repeatedly used and repeatedly dismissed.

In the first year of the Great Cause (605), he succeeded Yang Su as the left servant. Three years, he was dismissed due to events, and then he took charge of the government with Tai Changqing and Nayan, and added the three divisions of the Fuyi Department, which was quite respected, and was soon dismissed.

He didn't dare to speak out against Emperor Yang of Sui, and he took the will of the wind when he encountered problems.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the anti-thief Yu culture and the killing of Emperor Yang, with Su Wei as the Guanglu doctor.

Yu culture and failure, Su Wei descended to Li Mi.

Li Mi failed, and Su Wei returned to Wang Shichong.

Shichong was called the emperor, and Su Wei was appointed as the Taishi.

After Tang Ping's reign, Su Wei asked to see Li Shimin, the king of Qin, and Li Yuan, the ancestor of Tang, but they were all refused.

Lu Chang occupied a vast area south of the Yangtze River, but in fact it was only a military occupation, and there was no action in government affairs.

Of course, Yang Guang, the emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty, was still alive, and he did not dare to make any over-the-top moves. The problem is that Yang Guang is about to die, and if the entire Jiangnan does nothing in government affairs, the next step will not be good.

On the other hand, Lu Chang does not have a decent civil servant, and he himself is not very good at government affairs, so Su Wei, a capable person, is particularly important in Lu Chang's eyes.

With a plan in mind, Lu Chang asked his subordinate Song Hui to lead the garrison army to continue to advance, and asked them to tell Suwei that he had learned the news and was rushing over non-stop.

Song Hui understood what Lu Chang meant and led the army away.

Lu Chang dragged on until March 5, and finally rushed to Nanling County to meet Su Wei and welcome the holy decree.

Haha, he was promoted again, and the emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty was extremely generous, and directly gave Lu Chang the title of a general.

Lu Chang knew in his heart that if it weren't for the danger of Jiangdu Xingshi, the Great Emperor Yang Guang would not have promoted him one after another.

The rebellion of Lin Shihong and Xiao Mo made Yang Guang sweat in his heart, there were rebels on the left and right of Jiangdu, and the more they suppressed, the more they suppressed. If Jiangnan behind him is also messed up, he will be surrounded in the middle of Jiangdu, and he will not be able to go there. Needless to say, the consequences are not good!

In such a predicament, fortunately, there was a capable general, Lu Chang, who eliminated them one by one, so that Yang Guang's back was peaceful.

Now Yang Guangyi wants to retreat to the south of the Yangtze River, which is nothing more than taking advantage of the natural dangers of the Yangtze River to survive. Coupled with the protection of Lu Chang, a general, it is safe for at least a short time.

"Lord Su has worked hard, please! Wow, this is ......."

Su Wei didn't come alone, he was accompanied by a young woman. Looking at the graceful figure, she must be a beauty.

It's a pity that he is wearing a canopy covering his whole body, and he can't see his face at all.

"Haha, this is Empress Xiao's cousin Zhang Wuhua, Empress Xiao asked me to take her to Jiangnan to relax."

"It's not a good time to come out and relax, so it's better to be careful. However, since you come to Jiangnan, General Ben will do his best to ensure safety, so please rest assured. ā€

What can Lu Chang say, he can only comfort him like this.

However, how could there be a cousin of Queen Xiao? Could it be the legendary one...... It seems to have only appeared in the wild history, and there is no record in the official history at all.

Haha, according to Ye Shi, Zhang Wuhua and Queen Xiao looked very similar when they were young, and they are both rare beauties in the world. Wouldn't it be nice to have the opportunity to accept it!

Lu Chang secretly thought to himself in his heart, and a voice like a silver bell shattered his sweet dream.

"Then the general will be annoying, the little woman can't thank you enough."

"A little thing, you don't have to be polite, it's all your responsibility."

Su Wei came here to have something serious to say, and had to interrupt the conversation between the two.

"General Lu, the Holy Lord has high expectations for the general, and he also praises the general's achievements. The general fought Lin Shihong, destroyed Xiao Milling, and cleared the Jiangnan rebels in a very short period of time.

Although there are many soldiers in the Great Sui, they are good at fighting, but no one can match them. The saint has decided to move the capital to Danyang Palace in mid-March and let the general return to Danyang to escort him, is the general ready? ā€

"Master Su, there are no rebels south of the Yangtze River for the time being, and the general has led the army back to the division, ready to escort the saint at any time."

"That's good, the general will prepare for the next few days, let's leave for Danyang to wait in the near future, what do you think?"

"Follow the will of the adults, arrange the soldiers and horses, and then set off."

On March 6, Lu Chang led the army to set off and went to Danyang with Su Wei and others.
