Chapter 56: The Death of Jia She

At the same time, he brought to Laiwu with nearly 15,000 Li Quan's troops, these soldiers are basically Jingdong people, who were originally very uninterested in the civil war of the Loyal and Righteous Army, and many people felt that Li Quan's was wrong, so after the lobbying of the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army, they all chose to join the Flying Tiger Army to eat food as soldiers, so that the strength of the Flying Tiger Army was expanded to more than 20,000 people, and the old, weak and wounded were shaved off, and they were reorganized into the defenders of Laiwu Town, and the total strength of the Flying Tiger Army still reached nearly 20,000 people.

Because of the large amount of military rations captured by Li Quan on the battlefield, plus the grain unloaded from Rizhao Town, the grain of the Flying Tiger Army was basically in a relatively abundant situation, so soon the people in Jingdong knew that the food of the Flying Tiger Army was the best, and there was an endless stream of refugees who rushed to Laiwu County every day to join the army.

For the sake of the development and stability of his territory, Liu Chengyi suggested that Fu Daquan should not go all out to expand the army, but should make full use of these refugees who defected to them, distribute land to them and let them carry out farming in their jurisdiction, restore the agricultural economy in their jurisdiction, and lay a good foundation for grain self-sufficiency in the future.

Fu Daquan immediately adopted Liu Chengyi's suggestion, organized a large number of refugees who defected to him into the Tuntian Army, formulated land for them to cultivate, and formulated a system for the Tuntian Army to participate in military training during agricultural slack, abandoning the conscription system of the Southern Song Dynasty, and implementing the Tuntian system within his jurisdiction, which better solved the current contradiction between their military and farming, not only ensured the soldiers of the army, but also promoted the local agricultural economy, which had suffered a serious blow, and laid a relatively good foundation for their future development.

In addition, he also transferred Haizhou's generals to Laiwu, where production activities were carried out, because Laiwu was rich in iron ore resources, after the Flying Tiger Army arrived in Laiwu, it quickly collected the local iron ore into the hands of the Flying Tiger Army, initially monopolized the iron smelting industry in Laiwu, and laid the foundation for future development.

After completing the reorganization of the surrendered troops, Fu Daquan conducted a half-month training in Laiwu, these surrendered soldiers have also undergone a certain training of Li Quanjun before, so they can't be regarded as rookies, and they have also experienced general battles, so they still use the old method, that is, to instill their sense of obedience all day long, because when they were in Crouching Tiger Village, Gao Huaiyuan once told them that these people are soldiers, and they don't need to have too many thoughts, as long as they learn to obey unconditionally, even if they are good soldiers, the quality of an army is high, It is not determined by the personal ability of the soldiers of this army, but by the high ground of their sense of obedience to orders; as long as the soldiers obey the military orders, then as generals, they can give full play to their combat effectiveness, on the contrary, even if the quality of the soldiers is good, it is in vain.

Soon, after receiving half a month of harsh training, the original rabble immediately took on a new mental outlook, and after the formation, the army immediately revealed a murderous aura, basically carrying out orders and prohibitions, and the overall combat effectiveness was greatly improved.

So Fu Daquan also led the army out of Laiwu in accordance with the agreement with Peng Yibin and began to go in the direction of Qingzhou.

Gao Huaiyuan held this detailed battle report just sent from Yangzhou, his mouth had a tendency to smile crookedly, the development of the entire Jingdong situation, and they originally envisioned that there was basically no deviation, Fu Daquan and Liu Chengyi strictly implemented the battle plan they set at the beginning, so that Li Quan suffered a big suffocation in the Jingdong area, so that the strength loss was nearly one-third or a little more, and the territory under his jurisdiction was cut off by Fu Daquan and Peng Yibin's two armies, forming a situation where the north and the south could not take care of each other.

And he learned from the channels in Beijing that after Peng Yibin and Fu Daquan defeated Li Quan, they immediately sent people to contact the imperial court, intending to return to the Southern Song Dynasty and get out of the wing of the Mongols, this news is undoubtedly a good news for the Southern Song Dynasty, at least the original precarious situation in Jingdong has been alleviated, Li Quan did not dare to be as arrogant as before, but expressed his submission to the Southern Song Dynasty, hoping to get the support of the imperial court and obtain the food and salary support of the Southern Song Dynasty, in order to confront Peng Yibin and Fu Daquan.

The situation of the entire Jingdong Road has undergone a earth-shaking reversal because of this battle, others don't know why, but he understands the reason better than anyone else.

But the bad news is that Jia Shi is finally dead, after Jia Shi resigned, he has obtained the permission of the imperial court, but before he left office, the Jin State once again launched a war against Luzhou, Jia Shi had no choice but to lead troops to go to Luzhou to command the resistance to the Jin army.

But when Li Peng fought Enzhou, Jia She's body completely collapsed, and before he arrived in Luzhou, he died of illness in the army.

So under Shi Miyuan's push, Xu Guo finally got his wish, was promoted and appointed by the imperial court as the ambassador of Huaidong system, replaced Jia She, and became a member of Huaidong and even Jingdong Road.

Gao Huaiyuan's mood for Jia She's death is quite complicated, because in the past two years, he has carefully studied and judged with Ji Xiancheng the gains and losses of Jia She's actions on Jingdong Road over the years.

And the reason why this person can come to this point, it can be said that it is inseparable from his flexible handling of problems, for the situation in the area of Jingdong East Road, he has made important contributions, but unfortunately in the end he failed to completely achieve the goal of controlling the Jingdong Road Loyal Army for the imperial court, in the later treatment of the Jingdong Road Loyal Army, he made some mistakes, the main problem is that he failed to match the strength of the Loyal Army, did not trust the generals of the Loyal Army, and always wanted to take a means of division, so that the Loyal Army was full of internal contradictions, In the end, he was unable to control Li Quan's ambitions, so that he caused trouble and made the Southern Song Dynasty pay a huge price, but he did not really control the Jingdong area.

Therefore, Jia She's person is a person who has contributed to the Southern Song Dynasty court, but also has a fault, what he did has promoted the situation in the Jingdong area, and also hindered the Southern Song Dynasty's control of Jingdong, no matter how others evaluate Jia She, Gao Huaiyuan's evaluation of Jia Shi is half of the merit, for his death, Gao Huaiyuan still feels a little regretful, at least after Jia She's death, let Xu Guo succeed him, it is not a good thing.
