Chapter 104: Old Tang's Heart
【Broadcast】Pay attention to "Reading at the starting point", get the first-hand news of 515 red envelopes, and students who have not grabbed red envelopes after the Chinese New Year can show their skills this time.
He Daxian finally took away the three cavalry battalions and three infantry battalions of the Shuozhou Army with a total of 6,000 people, plus the 1,000 cavalry and 1,000 infantry that Huang Zhi captured in the first battle of Shenchi Pass, and the 1,000 cavalry and 1,000 infantry who were already on standby in Zhenwu New Town, the original Shuozhou Army with a total of 8,000 people was assigned to the Western Route Army.
The original Shuozhou Army, in addition to An Chongrong, the supreme leaders were Jia Zhang and Zhang Cheng.
These two people are not military generals, but the original An Chongrong's staff, in fact, they are literati, He Daxian didn't say a word, he directly transferred them to Zhenwu New Town, and casually sent an official who was "marching Sima left and right", which was regarded as a staff member in the big tent.
None of the government officials appointed by the imperial court, such as the Shuozhou Assassin, moved.
In the Shuozhou army, the Zhonglang general Qin Chi was directly promoted to be the commander of the Shuozhou army, a guerrilla general, to command the 12,000 Shuozhou troops left behind, and at the same time promoted Du Bin and Wang Dazhui to be the left and right generals of the Shuozhou army, assisting Qin Chi as the commander.
This arrangement is also very understandable, Qin Chi is still injured and has not recovered, and he will lie in bed for at least three months. Give him a nominal commander of the Shuozhou Army, and actually use Du Bin and Wang Da Hammer to empty this person, on the one hand, to appease the other captains of the Shuozhou Army, and on the other hand, to let Du Bin copy the idea of building the new Zhenwu Army in the Shuozhou Army.
As for the commander of the Western Route Army, He Daxian personally served as Zhao Ping's envoy, and there were Zhao Sang, the commander of the Western Route Army, Huang Zhi, the general of Zhonglang, Zhao Dali, and Zhao Du, the four henchmen of Zhao Ping served as officers at the level of Lang generals, and the twelve captains under the command were a total of 5,000 cavalry, 5,000 lunges, and 1,000 heavy archers.
The Lanzhou army has not yet found a suitable general, and Chen Tian, who was promoted to the general of the Lanzhou army, is temporarily led by Chen Tian, who is promoted to the general of the Lanzhou army, and the two captains of the Lanzhou army, a total of more than 2,000 people, all of whom are infantry regiments, are huddled in the city of Lanzhou to defend, and by the way, continue to repair his defensive embankment in Songjiagou.
When General Zhao Ping Zhao left Shuozhou, he also took about 30,000 people with him and moved to Zhenwu New City to live, mainly some unemployed vagrants and poor untouchables with no food.
This idea is chaotic outside, farming and grazing can't be done, and starvation in Shuozhou City is not a way, it is better to go to the grassland near Zhenwu New City to cultivate wasteland, which not only enriches the population of Zhenwu New City, brings a large number of laborers, but also allows these people to support themselves.
After returning to Zhenwu New Town, He Daxian continued to pretend to be arithmetic in the study at night, and found that the Khitan people's reaction was not excessive.
On the one hand, the two armies of Zhao Dejun and Zhao Yanshou suddenly accelerated their march, and it was expected to reach the vicinity of Taiyuan in three days.
In addition, although Shuozhou returned to the arms of the Tang army, at this time Yunzhou, Yingzhou, Daizhou and Yizhou, several large states along the way all took refuge in Shi Jingjiao, and the back road of the Khitans was not so easy to cut off, unless the Zhenwu army suddenly began to attack these rear state cities, otherwise the situation was not too bad.
Therefore, the Khitans increased the original 1,000 people stationed at Ningwu Pass to 2,000 people, and there was no other reaction for the time being.
Another three days passed, and seeing that the situation in several places had stabilized, He Daxian decided to take this time to rectify the Lanzhou army, and by the way, he took the time to go to Fangshan County in that corner to see what the hell was going on!
Early in the morning, General Zhao Pingzhao quietly came to Lanzhou with Liu Qi and more than a dozen cavalry soldiers.
Lanzhou Thorn Shi Tang Qun personally came to the city gate to receive him.
After all, the Zhenwu Army is still nominally a branch of the Tang Army, and Zhao Ping is only a solicitor rather than a jiedu envoy, so you can do whatever you want in the military system, but the civil official system in various places is still appointed by the imperial court.
To be honest, Ho Tai Sin is not interested in engaging in domestic affairs and anything like that.
In ancient times, productivity was low, and unless new technologies were introduced and the industrial level was rapidly improved, it was unlikely that anything would develop quickly. And what He Daxian is most afraid of is that after the introduction of science and technology, he once again touched the bottom line of the laws of heaven and earth in this world, so it is impossible for him to use the knowledge of later generations to help mortals engage in industry.
The last time I personally designed a crossbow for the baggage camp, it was already the limit of He Daxian's shot.
If you have that kind of effort to develop the economy, it is better to go out and grab it.
Labor and management have done too much to help you drive away the Khitans so that you can have food to eat and survive!
General Zhao Pingzhao's nostrils were facing the sky, riding arrogantly on a tall horse, and when he saw Lanzhou Thorn Shi Tang Qun, he just snorted lightly like a mosquito in his nose, which was regarded as a greeting. Then, under the puff of being welcomed by a large number of Lanzhou army officers and soldiers, he walked into the gate of Lanzhou City in a hurry.
The bloated white fat man Tang Qun, where did he dare to offend this big warlord who was on the rise at this time, and he didn't mind, he didn't care about the hot weather, and he was sweaty, and he also trotted all the way into the city with General Zhao, and came to the best building in the city, the Assassin's Mansion.
Lanzhou Thorn Shi Tang Qun, before the Khitans came, was also regarded as the emperor of the soil in this city.
This place is far away from the emperor, and it is neither an important pass nor a mineral base, and the merchants do not have to fight it. In addition, it is located in a large ravine, the area is narrow, and agriculture and animal husbandry are not developed.
This kind of place is not very popular with officials.
But Tang Qun is a treasure with a discerning eye, Nimaning is a chicken head not a phoenix tail, what's wrong with being a soil emperor here?
After coming here to be an official for more than ten years, Tang Qun basically had no hope of being promoted, and only cared about making money. Now the Tang family's industry has spread all walks of life in Lanzhou City, and basically the money-making business is controlled by the Tang family or the Tang family's in-laws, which can be described as a collection of big officials, big bosses, and big warlords.
If it weren't for the small size of the city, this treatment would not be much different from a festival envoy.
Saying that he is a "big warlord" is indeed a bit of a promotion of him, but after all, he still has more than 2,000 people in his hands. Although the combat effectiveness of this Lanzhou army is even more scum than tofu scum, and even the fiercer horse thieves can't beat it, but it is very effective to bully the local tyrants, suppress the local people, and collect the city gate tax of passing merchants.
In the past, when An Chongrong was in control of the Zhenwu Army, he had wanted to collect his Lanzhou Army, but he immediately reported it urgently, and the complaint was reported to the court, saying that An Chongrong had bad intentions and wanted to incorporate the local army and establish himself as the king in the mountains.
Emperor Li Congke's eyes were dizzy, and he was right to think about it, Nima, you An Chongrong was originally one of the top ten cavalry and archery generals in this dynasty, and there were 20,000 Shuozhou troops under his command, and now he is collecting local armies everywhere? What do you want?
So, a piece of holy decree came down, and the face was reprimanded indecent!
There's no way, Lao Tang is rich and smart, and he sends gifts to the officials in the capital every year, but there are more than a dozen cars! Just kidding, you An Chongrong, a little turtle soldier, a poor jingle, full of sour sweat, who do you want to have more money than my old soup? Who's more well-connected than whom? Phew.
was so angry that An Chongrong had no choice but to say a few cruel words in his tent, and then he was out of line.
It's like this in Han culture, there's no way, you're a military general, you can't talk about civil officials, you can't write articles about civil officials, you don't have as much money as anyone else, why does the emperor believe that you don't believe in civil officials?
But recently, I don't know what's going on, and feng shui has taken turns.
Since the Khitans entered the customs, a fake Zhenwu patrol envoy suddenly appeared in the north, and the Khitans fought fiercely, and then brutally occupied a large grassland behind the Shenchi Valley. This was not satisfied, and within a few days, Langu County was taken away, so that Master Tang's income was reduced by half.
Well, you're ruthless, you're young, don't rob with you.
But a few days after Nima, hundreds of Khitans had nothing to do, ran into the mountains to walk their horses, and were killed by the Xinzhenwu army. Kill it, kill it, this is not the key, Master Tang doesn't care about the life or death of the Khitans, the problem is that the old immortal Li Zhuanmei Li happened to pass through Lanzhou, and was frightened by the Khitans, and let the new Zhenwu army come in to help defend the city.
This old Li Tou completely forgot how many things he took from the Tang family every year, did he know that it was easy to invite God and difficult to send God?
You see, no, they won't leave as soon as they come!
I heard that after receiving two golden silk cats, I was impressed by this group of new Zhenwu troops, and this old Li Tou would die in the hands of women sooner or later.
Now, this young warlord is here again, and I heard that this time he is really coming to take away the Lanzhou army.
Oh my God, is this still not letting people live?
Lao Tang really wanted to cry without tears.
