Chapter XVII: Rebellion

There are at least dozens of candles lit on the lampstand in the government hall, which are as bright as daytime, of course, just like, the light is still very different from the daytime, and the details on people's bodies are not clear, even the sloppy Li Shouyi looks like a human at first glance at this time.

Everyone's expressions were very strict. Liu An, who had just been called from the bedroom, was originally excited to play with a pair of twin sisters who were hard to find, twin sisters may be easy to find, but it is not so easy to get hands on them with money and power if they are beautiful women; But when he heard that it had happened, he was not interested, and he realized that there were more difficult and troublesome things waiting for him.

Some people will definitely transfer troops to suppress it, and he can't control the war, the problem is that the war requires money, and he is not looking for him in front of the household department...... The palace expenses are huge, especially the princess of Taiping is more expensive than gold when she uses anything, and she is in a good mood to reward those celebrities who can only talk big, and this year's military budget itself is very high, the emperor asked Du Xian to transfer 50,000 troops into Tibet to play with his life, so many people's food, drink, ordnance and military salary are the amount of money in Liu An's eyes, and they can't care if they die Liu An can't care about it, the problem is that they have to be compensated when they die, anyway, it is money. I just hope that the wind and rain will be smooth this year, and the local people will not encounter drought and flood crying and shouting for money and food for disaster relief; There is also Princess Taiping who has already built the Huaqing Palace to escape the winter, don't have a whim to repair the palace to escape the summer.

With these billions of money at every turn, Liu An can't compare with him to collect some things and enjoy himself, so he never feels that he is a corrupt official, and he is not afraid to be known by others, who wants to impeach him and let him go, as long as the emperor doesn't want to treat him, he can do what he should do generously.

At present, there are no healthy soldiers in Hebei, Hedong, and Henan at all, and they can only rely on local regimental training, and they don't know whether they are useful or not.

Although it was Zhang Wulang who presided over the matter, Zhang Wulang's subordinates were all martial artists who fought wars, and the specific work was sent by the Ministry of Industry to be responsible.

Of course, the most unhappy thing is that Zhang said that he is Zhongling. Zhang Shuo was already angry: "Who recommended the history of the slippery state?" What does he eat! ”

Everyone didn't say a word, and an official said cautiously: "Zhou Ji has been working there for a few years, why don't you find the previous file to check?" "No one agreed, for a few years? Your mother, our Great Jin Dynasty is only two years old now, where can the people who did the assassination in the Tang Dynasty find out who recommended it? Besides, a few people present knew the same thing: it seems that in the first year of the Great Jin Tianbao, the assassin of Huazhou came to Chang'an to show his loyalty and report on his work, and gave Zhang Shuo a big gift.

Zhang said that he couldn't help but pour out his stomach with a sullen stomach: "The person surnamed Cui fled back from Yingzhou, how many people can there be, no money and no weapons and armor, just take a county seat, how did you break through the state capital?" Isn't there no soldiers and horses in a state, heavily armed officers and soldiers beat a group of mobs and lost the state office, this Zhou Ji is a rice bucket! ”

Dou Huaizhen persuaded with good words: "The newspaper said that Zhou Ji is not dead, let him come back and ask, won't you understand...... If he hadn't surrendered. ”

Cheng Qianli said in a deep voice: "Huazhou was originally the nest of the Cui family, although many people were exiled after being convicted, but the foundation of hundreds of years cannot be eradicated one day, and the regimental training in the hands of the local assassin is also a local, I am afraid that those generals will not have the heart to fight Cui Qigao." Losing Huazhou is not a big deal, now I am afraid that this person's people will flow into Hebei, and now the people in Hebei are unstable, if the traitor is good at incitement, it is only a matter of time before the momentum grows. ”

Zhang Shuo asked: "Does Cheng Xiang have a strategy for exterminating it as soon as possible?" ”

Cheng Qianli's expression was solemn: "Since the reform of the military system presided over by the Central Commander, the Zhichong Mansion, which has been increasingly depleted of soldiers, has been withdrawn, and the Governor's Mansion has been replaced with the Governor's Mansion in charge of the troops. However, because the local regimental training did not have the imperial court to bear the burden of military salaries and equipment, first, they had poor combat effectiveness, and second, they only wanted to protect their own local one-third of an acre, and they had to go to other places to serve as soldiers, and it was not wise to rashly cobble together regimental training and suppress the rebels without knowing the specific combat strength of the rebels. The battle must not be defeated against such a rebellion, and the impact of a rebel victory is even worse than the battle itself!

The nearby governor's office could only rely on the towns north of the Yellow River, and the provinces of Shannan, Huainan, and Jiangnan had always been unarmed and relaxed. However, in order to capture Yingzhou a year ago, the main forces of the healthy soldiers in the three towns of Hedong, Hebei and Andong have been transferred to Yingzhou, and now there are no troops to adjust. I don't know if Cui Qigao was lucky or premeditated, at this time, it is really difficult for the imperial court to quickly gather superior forces to attack. Therefore, in the old man's opinion, unless Cui Qigao's men and horses are vulnerable, it is impossible to extinguish them immediately.

The remaining method is to start from two aspects, one is to strictly order the prefectures and prefectures to guard the territory to prevent the expansion of the rebels' activities, especially Youzhou should immediately appoint a prestigious minister to preside, this place is very important, and early prevention is necessary; The second is to gather elite troops from elsewhere to defeat its main force, and then divide and conquer one by one to extinguish it. The defenders of Luoyang, the eastern capital, and Dugi could not move, and the rebels were already in Henan. The rest could transfer the border army from the three cities of Guanbei, but the roads in the Guanzhong Plateau area were rugged, which was not conducive to marching; Instead of transferring soldiers and horses from the three cities, it is better to transfer the Guanzhong army from the Guanzhong Plain, or the three forbidden armies in Chang'an are also very strong, and they can also transport equipment and ordnance along the canal to reduce military expenses and the burden on the people. ”

Zhang Shuo frowned and said: "Cheng Xiang said a lot, to deal with a local rebellion, it is necessary to transfer troops from Guanzhong, how is the military equipment of the military department arranged, how to explain such a method to the emperor?" ”

Cheng Qianli said calmly: "This can't be blamed for the inappropriateness of the armed forces, originally the important military towns in Shandong (east of Guanzhong) are in Hedong and Hebei, and even Luoyang does not have many soldiers, one is because Luoyang is far away in the hinterland all the year round, and the other is that Li Sanlang, the remnant of the previous dynasty, used the official army to rebel there, and the defense of the eastern capital is mainly fortifications, and the soldiers and horses in charge are only enough to defend the local. However, in order to advance Yingzhou a year ago, the elite soldiers in Hedong, Hebei Province were exhausted, and they did not have time to make up for it in a short time; At that time, the campaign of Yingzhou itself was relatively hasty, and there was almost no time for full preparation. This situation is completely a loophole, and it is precisely the rebels who have taken advantage of it; Now we must not transfer the soldiers and horses of the two towns in Hedong of Hebei from Yingzhou, and beware of the traitors colluding with the barbarians inside and outside, so that the results of the battle of Yingzhou will be lost.

If it weren't for the rebellion of the traitor Cui Qigao in Huazhou at this time, the elite soldiers in Hedong, Hebei Province quickly went south, and they were wiped out in half a month, and they had no chance to turn up any prodigal sons, at most they fluttered a few times in Huazhou. ”

In the end, such an unprepared embarrassment was a side effect of the Battle of Yingzhou, and the courtiers who launched this war at that time did not support it, and Xue Chongxun was also a little anxious. Everyone knows the ins and outs, but no one mentions it at this moment, what's the use of blaming the emperor now, do you mean that the Son of Heaven deserves to be unqualified?

Zhang Shuo paced a few steps and said categorically: "Cheng Xiang's statement is too trivial, Cui Qigao is just a grass coward, relying on the geographical advantages of his hometown and luck to obtain a state land, and the local people are not all surnamed Cui, not everyone is willing to carry their heads to him to conspire against the clan." Let's transfer troops from Guanzhong, and even move the forbidden army, isn't it to make the world laugh?

…… Besides, the total number of soldiers in our Great Jin Dynasty's Governor's Mansion is only one or two hundred thousand, isn't there only such a little armament in these thousands of miles? Blind so many local armies really can't fight, and they don't even have the combat effectiveness to exterminate the grass bandits, so what's the use of them? In this way, the imperial court paid them military salaries during the war, and then sent a few generals who were good at fighting to select local troops to form a large army to encircle and suppress Huazhou...... Who wants to be the main general? ”

Cheng Qianli hurriedly said: "Zhongling, please think twice, if Huazhou is not lost and only loses one or two counties, such a strategy is feasible." But Huazhou has been lost, and the rebels have land and food, and they can also temporarily build weapons, how much difference is there between such men and horses and local regiment training? In addition, one side is waiting for work in the nest, and the morale of the other side is not high, which is very risky. With my many years of experience in leading troops, I should avoid fighting such a battle, it is better to consume it first, anyway, the court has fifteen ways in the world, and they only occupy a corner, and the disparity in strength will result in a matter of time. ”

"Cheng Xianggong was born in a soldier, do you think the old man doesn't know how to soldier?" Zhang said that tonight's love was not good, and he was a little angry when he spoke, but he was indeed from the Ministry of War, and the squire of the Ministry of War had all the qualifications. He said: "The soldiers are swift, don't you put them out in one fell swoop when their foundation is unstable, and wait for the fire to become less and greater?" ”

Cheng Qianli said: "If the lieutenant insists on this, the emperor also agrees, I have no opinion, the military department will try its best to cooperate, but don't recommend me to be the main general, I can't do this errand." ”

Zhang Shuo stretched his face and said: "Cheng Xianggong led the troops back to the dynasty from Helong, and the general has no enterprising heart. ”

"You don't have to provoke me, what you can do and what you can't do, I know my own weight." Cheng Qianli said calmly.

Zhang Shuo looked back and said: "No one went, the old man recommended himself in front of the emperor, and he gave up the pen and pulled the bow!" ”

When the officials heard this, they hurriedly persuaded them, saying that you are the liao of a hundred officials, who will preside over the overall situation of the Nanya when you go to lead the troops...... Several civil officials who came up by virtue of their Jinshi background and mixed qualifications immediately asked for their lives, of course, the political affairs hall would not recommend them to lead the troops, but they took the opportunity to show their loyalty to Zhang Shuo It was still necessary to save face.

At this time, a young man stood up and said in an official dialect with a strong local accent: "I'll go, I haven't done any miracles, but I have been in Jiannan to govern the army, and I have also followed Shang to train for a few years." ”
