Chapter 165: Wuzhou Governor's Mansion
Jingshi, Daxing......
After the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, it was originally set in Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty. However, the ancient capital of the Han Dynasty, Chang'an City, was already dilapidated and narrow, and the water pollution was severe, so Yang Jian decided to build a new capital city on the southern slope of Longyuan in the southeast. This new capital city was opened in the second year of the emperor's reign, and under the auspices of Yu Wenkai, a generation of architectural masters, it took only nine months to build the palace and the imperial city. This new capital city was carefully designed by Yu Wenkai to absorb the spirit of Luoyang, the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the southern city of the Ye capital of the Northern Qi Dynasty. In the third year of the emperor's reign, Yang Jian moved the capital to the new capital, because Yang Jian had been named the Duke of Daxing in his early years, so this new capital was destined for Daxing.
In the imperial study of the palace, on the floor in the center of the main hall, there is a huge sheepskin map at this time, spliced together with pieces of skin, almost covering half of the floor of the main hall, on which the map of the whole world is drawn.
Yang Jian stood in the middle of the world with a dragon staff in his hand and only socks on his feet, his face was solemn, and the dragon staff in his hand clicked in one of them from time to time. On one side is now the right servant of Pang Xin, Yang Su, who is now extremely popular in the court, as well as the princess of Lanling, the military department Shangshu Liu Shu, Nayan Su Wei, and the four important ministers of the right guard general, Zong Zhengqing, and Yang Xiong, the king of Qingzhang, stand on one side.
Yang Jian stared at the map for a long time, slowly walked back to the imperial case, picked up the book again, and after carefully rereading it, Yang Jian raised his head again, his face was already a little happy that could not be concealed.
"Yue Guogong, is everything said above this piece true?" Yang Jian asked.
Shangshu's right servant, Yang Su, the Duke of Yueguo, saluted respectfully and said with a smile: "Supreme." When the news first arrived, Weichen was also a little unbelievable, and specially sent someone to check it carefully, and now the person sent back the news. Check it for correct. ”
Yang Jian put the fold back on the table, and walked back to the map with the dragon staff.
"Good news, open up hundreds of miles of territory."
In addition to Yang Su, Liu Shu, Su Wei, and Yang Xiong were all a little dazed, since the right servant of Shangshu shot Gao Gong and Yang Liang, the king of Han, led the army out of Linyu Pass, the progress has not been smooth. Until now, the soldiers and horses on both sides of the water 6 are still moving slowly on the road. This made the Son of Heaven very dissatisfied. After the morning this morning, the Son of Heaven suddenly left a few of them behind, and he was still happy. Could it be that there is good news about the Crusade?
"Explain it to a few of them." Yang Jian said with a smile.
Yang Su nodded, and briefly explained: "The chess that we planted in the northern Xinjiang in the early years has finally worked, and Yi Feng, the new leader of the Yanshan Tiger League in the northern Xinjiang, took the initiative to go south to the Cheng Imperial Court some time ago, and after getting Zhao'an. He returned to northern Xinjiang. In a short period of time, it has successively pacified many bandit cottages in the area of Yanshan and Daqingshan, and now in the hometown of Huaihuang Military Town of the Northern Wei Dynasty outside the Great Wall Daning Pass, more than 300,000 border people have been gathered, and 16 cities have been established, and trade roads have been built, and the border market has been established. A land with a radius of hundreds of miles outside Daning Pass, with a population of hundreds of thousands. All of them belong to my Great Sui. ”
Yang Jian sat back on the throne, holding a cup of ginseng tea, and drank it very comfortably.
With a population of hundreds of thousands and a land of hundreds of miles, of course, the emperor of the Great Sui Empire, which has four seas, cannot be so happy and moved. What really moved Yang Guang was the cascading benefits that this change in Huaihuang Town would bring under the current situation. The Western Turks in the northwest are still fighting against the Great Sui, and the Eastern Turks have become stronger, and the Great Sui wants to expose the strength of the Turks, so they can't let the Eastern and Western Turks unite, Yang Jian has always been the Eastern and Western Turks who are strong, and they use the strategy of division. It's a pity that although Tuli is obedient, his strength is a little weak, and Du Lan now has an insight into the strategy of the imperial court, and last year's border sweeping is a clear proof that he began to break with Sui.
At this time, the Goguryeo people began to move again. The battle of Yingzhou was actually a battle in which the governor of Yingzhou was instructed by the imperial court to intervene in the affairs of Goryeo and Khitan. But the imperial court had to fight this battle, and even had to take the opportunity to fight, although the Khitan was only a tribe of a few hundred thousand people, their position was too important. Sandwiched between the three great powers of Sui, Turkic, and Goryeo, the Great Sui must control the Khitan, and if either the Turks or Goryeo conquer the Khitan, it will be an extremely unfavorable situation for the Sui. In this way, the Turks and Goryeo may be united, which is extremely unfavorable to the Sui. Because of this, the Great Sui never allowed Goryeo to annex the Khitan. Not only that, but the Sui also had to take this opportunity to send a large army to the east, at least to drive Goryeo out of the Liaohe Plain and drive them back to the mountains of Liaodong, and they must not be allowed to echo with the Turks.
The Khan court of the Eastern Turks was originally in Yudujin Mountain in Mobei, but as early as after the destruction of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Turks took advantage of the civil strife in the Central Plains to continue to go south, and finally crossed the Yin Mountain and occupied a large area of land outside the Yanmen Pass to the north of Yulin. Although there were two major defeats of the Turks, they did not have the strength to completely defeat the Turks at that time, and the Sui Dynasty never had the strength to deploy its troops beyond the Great Wall.
Not to mention that the Northern Wei Dynasty arranged the northern defense line to the north of Yinshan and Yanshan, even the fertile land such as the Qianhetao Plain was occupied by the Turks. The tent of the Eastern Turks is only 500 miles away from Yanmen Pass, and only 300 miles away from Yunnei, an important town in the northeast of Hedong. It was precisely because of this that Yang Guang was later besieged by Shibi Khan of Eastern Turkistan with 400,000 cavalry at Yanmen.
Liu Shu stepped forward to look at the location of Huaihuang on the map, and couldn't help sighing: "This Huaihuang town will be very important, not only can it help the imperial court strengthen its control over Xi and Khitan, but also can block Youzhou and Yunnei, and even as long as a heavy army is stationed here, it can even appear directly behind the tent of the Eastern Turk Dingxiang Khan at a critical time." It is really important to be able to attack and defend, advance or retreat! Who is this Yi Feng?"
Yang Su said with a smile: "This Yi Feng is the husband of the current leader of the Tiger Alliance, and he is also the acting leader of the Tiger Alliance. He is only eighteen years old this year, but he is Yunwen Nengwu. Very remarkable, it was originally a righteous son picked up by Murong Ke, the old leader of the Tiger League, and it is said that when he picked up Yi Feng. Yi Feng was only twelve years old, but at that time, he was already alone in the fierce tiger and killed a white tiger alone. This Murong Ke was actually a spy sent to the grassland by the imperial court that year, and later established the Tiger League, which died five years ago, and the Tiger League was taken over by his daughter Murong Rose. That is, Yi Feng's newly married wife. ”
Yang Jian listened to Yi Feng's situation, but he was a little appreciative, "Brave." What is even more rare is that I still remember to serve the court loyally. ”
Huaihuang Town is indeed very important, and with a population of 300,000, Huaihuang of the sixteen cities is even more important. Originally, the imperial court had a strong control over the first Great Wall, but the first Great Wall came out. Hedong out of Yanmen Pass. After Hebei went out of the military capital, it was vast and sparsely populated, and there were not many troops stationed, which was an early warning function. For example, behind the famine, Daning City on the Great Wall was originally a big city in the Wei period, but now, there are only a small number of soldiers left, within three hundred miles between Daning Pass and Jundu Pass. Daning Pass is between four hundred miles east of the river and Yunnei, except for some Feng Forts. There is not even a county seat. This vast area is more like an unmanned military buffer zone.
"Supreme, please set up a military town in Huaihuang!" Yang Su said in a timely manner. "With Huaihuang as the military town, the minister Bao raised the Shangzhu State, the general Zuo Wuwei, the Duke of Baoguo, the son of Yu Wenshu, the governor of Shouzhou, to open the Fuyu culture and the general of Huaihuang Town."
When Liu Shu heard this, his face changed slightly, and he didn't wait for Yang Jian to agree, and then said loudly, "The minister thinks that Huaihuang is extremely important, and the establishment of a military town is not enough to reflect its importance. Chen Bao raised Qu Tutong, the general of the right Wuhou Che Cai, as the governor of Wuzhou, and Wei Yunqi, the general of the house, as the Sima of the governor's office. ”
Liu Shu married Yang Jian's fifth daughter, Princess Yang Awu of Lanling, Princess Lanling was very loved by Yang Jian and his wife, so this Liu Shu was also very popular with Yang Jian and Pang Xin, he was also a hero, so he was already in the position of secretary of the Ministry of War at a young age. Yang Su also won Yang Jian's trust in the court, and as a result, Yang Su and Liu Shu had a discordant relationship in private, and their personal grievances were very deep. On the other hand, Liu Shu was a staunch princeling, and Yang Su had now fallen to Yang Guang, the king of Jin. Now that the princeling leader Gao Gong is not in the court, although Liu Shu does not know what the relationship between Yang Su and this Yi Feng is, as soon as he heard him recommend Yu Wenshu's son to be the general of Huaihuang Town, he immediately thought that this Huaihuang Town may be related to Yang Guang, even if it doesn't matter, then they also figured out that Guò installed Yuwen Shu as the town general to indirectly control this Huaihuang Town.
Liu Shu did not hesitate to oppose Yang Su's suggestion, and then also took out a mention yì. He directly promoted the military town to the governor's office, the military town is lower than the governor's office, the military town has three levels, and the governor's office also has three levels, but the upper town and town generals are only from the fourth grade, but the lower government is already from the third grade. The entire Great Sui now has only more than 50 governors, and the governor of the three grades is at a very high level, and according to the system, the right to appoint and dismiss officials above the three grades is in the hands of the Son of Heaven. Originally, if it was a military town general from the fourth grade, this appointment and dismissal power was in the hands of the three provinces and six departments. This promotion, Yu Culture and a Kaifu are definitely not qualified. And Qu Tutong, who he pushed out, is a very experienced general, and he has just been praised by the Son of Heaven for inspecting the pastures in Longxi on the order of the Son of Heaven. The most important thing is that this Qu Tutong is not a person from Yang Guang and Yang Su's faction. As for that Wei Yunqi, it was just out of selfishness. Wei Yunqi is a jinshi from the imperial examination, and he is a petty official next to the Son of Heaven, but the last time the Son of Heaven asked Wei Yunqi to give advice, he actually attacked himself in front of the Son of Heaven. Afterwards, the Son of Heaven asked him to recommend talents, and he had to grit his teeth and recommend this Wei Yunqi, in fact, he had already seen this stunned young man unpleasantly in his heart, and this time he just took the opportunity to drive him out of Beijing.
However, whether it is Yang Su's Jianjun Town or Liu Shu's Jianguan Mansion, none of the officials they recommend have Yi Feng's name.
On the same day, Yang Jian issued an order to establish the Wuzhou Governor's Office, which consisted of Huairong, Huai'an, and Huaihuang counties, with Qu Tutong as the Governor of Wuzhou, Wei Yunqi as the Governor of Shouzhou, Yu Wenhua and Sima as the Governor of Wuzhou, Qu Tugai as the Governor of Wuzhou to join the army and Huairong County Commander, Yu Cavalry Lieutenant Fang Xuanling as the Huai'an County Commander, and Yi Feng as the Huaihuang County Commander. In addition, Guo Ke, Duan Qing, Zhang Xixuan and others were appointed to join the army for Zhu Cao. In addition, Yi Feng and Huaihuang Town General, and Li Jing, a member of the driving department, is the Daning Town General" (to be continued......)
