"The south has newly established 11 provinces of Huainan, Jiangdong, Jiangxi, Fujian, Lingdong, Lingxi, Hunan, Shandong, Shanxi, Guizhou and South Vietnam. All these 11 provinces and the six provinces of Hedong, Henan, Hebei, Jingdong, Saishang, and Saibei in the north, a total of 17 provinces, all have political envoys as civil affairs and financial governors, prosecutors as judicial governors, and commanders as military governors. The four divisions are carried out at the same time, and the four powers are equally important, but they do not govern each other, and they have the power and responsibility to supervise each other. Each province has two separate supervisors of the imperial history, not subordinate to each other, supervising the four chiefs, auditing the criminal cases of one province, reporting to the imperial court, and having the right to investigate but not the right to dispose of"

The latest imperial court internal staff, hundreds of officials have seen the new edict to be issued by the Hanlin Academy, the imperial court in Luoyang just when the provincial system, there were only six provinces at that time, and now overnight, but there are eleven new provinces, the territory of the Great Sui, the Luoyang court has two-thirds. And now that the crown prince has ordered troops to recruit in person, and personally led 100,000 Beiya forbidden troops to Xiangyang in the south, a decisive battle is about to start, and countless eyes are paying attention to this war. The vast majority of people are extremely optimistic about this battle, with the prestige of the Luoyang Imperial Court today, this battle is a battle to fight against rebellion and counterinsurgency, and the Luoyang Imperial Court is carrying the name of orthodoxy and sweeping the V♀ trend, which is bound to be an overwhelming blow. The crown prince personally led 100,000 troops from Luoyang to the south to Xiangyang, and Taifu Shangshu ordered Gao Gong and the privy envoy Wang Bao to lead 100,000 troops to Jingzhou, while He Ruobi 120,000 troops attacked Pujin, and Yang Su's 30,000 troops were in Lingzhou, and Yuwenshu Zhang Heng and others led 150,000 Huainan Jingzhou soldiers to Jingxiang. Five-way soldiers. With a total of 500,000 people, it was impossible for Yang Xiu to stop the trend of destruction.

Dealing with many affairs of this huge court every day. Yi Feng also has some obvious thinness. He looked at the map, on the territory of the Great Sui Empire. Now only Shu Han, Guanlong, Hexi three places have not been recovered, although in the vast territory of the Sui Dynasty, these three places only occupy a small corner, but these three places are quite the essence of the Great Sui corner, it is not an exaggeration to call the Phnom Penh Silver Horn, especially Guanzhong, even if he has been in Luoyang Dingdu, but one day can not take Xijing Daxing, then the Luoyang court can not be called to control the world for one day. Yi Feng's mind was swirling with various thoughts. In the end, he decided not to wait any longer, and at this time, he made his best to fight Yang Xiu.

Quietly sinking his whole body into the down wheelchair, he closed his eyes, and now he has decided that he should empty himself, and tomorrow, the army will go on the march.

The temple was quiet. No one dared to disturb him.

A sound of light footsteps sounded, and a young beauty dressed in a light veil walked in.

"The concubine massages His Highness." The person who came to speak softly in Chinese, which was not very fluent, Yi Feng did not open his eyes, and when he heard this peculiar accent, he knew that it was Princess Jindeman of Lelang. Lelang was originally one of the names of the four counties in Liaodong set up in the Han Dynasty. Therefore, the lord of Lelang is not a woman of the Han family, but the daughter of King Jin Baijing of Silla. Not long ago, the imperial court canonized King Kim Baek-jeong of Silla as the king of Silla County, and there was a loan alliance agreement. The Silla envoy hurried back to Silla by boat to report the matter. Silla was not in a good situation at this time. Although victorious in the war with Baekje, he annexed Gaya. However, Baekje and Dongying united, but they refused to give up, and the war continued for many years, and Goguryeo in the north has also been eyeing the tiger, devouring for many years, and has already invaded the most fertile Han River Plain, and Silla is under the attack and oppression of Goguryeo, Baekje, and Dongying, and is in a difficult situation. Now the Sui Dynasty is willing to canonize them, make Slana a vassal, and at the same time willing to come forward to help them make peace with Baekje Dongying, and is willing to lend money to sell their ordnance and equipment, and provide instructors to train their troops for them, which is simply a pie-in-the-sky thing. When the Silla people heard the good news that the messenger had brought back, they were all excited. The ministers of the court and the central government even demanded that they immediately send someone to cross the sea to restore the Sui Dynasty, and some even proposed that in order to stabilize this hard-won relationship, they should marry a princess from the royal family to the Sui Dynasty and give the crown prince who is now in charge of the Sui Dynasty as a concubine.

The Silla people couldn't even wait for the reply of the Sui Dynasty, so they directly let the mission set off, and directly brought the princess with them. By the time the positive news of the Silla people reached Yi Feng's ears, both the Silla mission and the princess had already landed on the coast of Gyeongdong. The Luoyang court was very satisfied with the reaction of the Silla people, and said that they should agree to this marriage with relatives, and finally Yi Feng asked the Hanlin Yuan to send someone to Jingdong to confer on the Silla princess who crossed the sea as the lord of Lelang.

Jindeman, the lord of Lelang County, is five years younger than Yi Feng, at this time he is twenty-eight years old, and he is the daughter of the king and queen of Silla.

"I'm tired." Yi Feng leaned back in his chair and replied. For her, Yi Feng also felt pity, a little girl crossed the ocean, came to a strange country with her relatives, and married a man she had never seen before, which was really embarrassing for her.

Jindeman's jade hands began to knead Yi Feng's shoulders, and the kneading force was just right, and Yi Feng snorted with satisfaction. "Are you still used to living here, are you okay with those Silla maids I plucked for you?"

"The Sui State is so big, the concubines came from the sea, landed in Luoyang, and along the way the four ** carriages and boats were transferred, and they walked for more than ten days, and I heard that there were more than 2,000 miles to go. And Luoyang, is just the heart of the Great Sui, from the coast of Jingdong to the Xijing of the Sui State, and even Hexi, it is said that it is even more distant, I heard that there are 5,000 miles away, the territory of the Great Sui is really vast. Luoyang City is also so prosperous, the flow of people is like weaving, shoulder to shoulder, it is really as contained in the book, waving sleeves like clouds and sweating like rain. Luoyang is much more lively and prosperous than the Silla Royal City, and the population of Luoyang City feels that there are more than half of Silla's people. ”

"I'll ask Yubo to take you on a good tour of Luoyang, tomorrow, I'm going to go on an expedition, I can't take you with me, you stay in Luoyang by yourself and take good care of yourself."

The corners of Jindeman's mouth showed a hint of bitterness, she married from afar, and was lucky to meet the prince who was very good to her, but the prince was always busy and didn't have much time to spend with her. Most of the time she was alone, which made her feel more homesick. Fortunately, the crown prince found many Silla court maids for her, and most of these women were sold to slave traders when they were young, and then sent to the Sui State to be sold to those big and wealthy families. Although they were sold to traffickers when they were decades old or even seven or eight years old, and since then they have learned Chinese characters and Chinese dialects and various singing and dancing skills, etc., but after all, they are also Silla people, and they can also speak Silla dialect.

"The concubine wishes His Highness success and put down the rebellion as soon as possible."

"You can write to your father and tell them that I have decided to borrow an additional amount of money to Silla, and the loan to Silla will reach 5 million kan. At present, the ordnance for you is being urgently prepared, and the list of ordnance will be quoted and sent to you immediately, as long as you prepare the order, we will be able to ship it to Silla immediately, and there will be instructors with the ship to help you train the army. ”

"Really?" Kindman's eyes widened and he said in surprise. Didn't he come here across the ocean to help his family gain the support of the Sui State to resist the invasion of Goguryeo. Unexpectedly, the prince of the Sui State is ready to speak like this.

The next day, outside the city of Luoyang.

Hundreds of thousands of people in Luoyang went to the suburbs to send the crown prince to lead the army. The crown prince inspected 100,000 troops in the suburbs and swore to go on the expedition. The crown prince went south, took almost all the soldiers and horses in Luoyang City, and even the emperor went south together, the emperor drove the expedition in person, the eldest son went to the expedition, and the civil and military officials of the court accompanied him, leaving only a small number of officials such as Fan Zigai, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, to stay in Luoyang.

Nanyang City.

After Yu Wenhua went to Jingmen to deliver the message for Yuwenshu, the 100,000 Huainan army was immediately divided into three divisions, and Zhang Heng led 20,000 to return to Jiangling to stabilize Jingzhou and prevent Jingzhou from making chaos. Duan Da led 30,000 troops to guard the front line of Jingmen, and Guo Yan led 50,000 troops north to Xiangyang. After Guo Yan arrived in Xiangyang, he immediately divided some soldiers and horses, and let them guard the cities of Nanyang, Neixiang, Xincheng, Suixian, and Gucheng in Dengzhou.

At this time, Guo Yan's eldest son, Guo Zhen, led his troops to guard Nanyang. At this time, Wu Yalang put Guo Zhen in a military uniform, stood on top of the Nanyang City Tower, and looked north.

"Young marshal, I never see the crown prince's soldiers and horses."

The one who stepped forward to report was Guo Yan's subordinate general transferred to Guo Zhen, the general of the chariot cavalry, Mai Tiecane. Next to him, there are two other generals, Qian Shixiong and Meng Jincha, both of whom are brave and good generals, Guo Yan pulled the three generals to his son and asked him to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to guard Nanyang.

"Yesterday's scout's report, where is the crown prince?"

"Yesterday, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led the army to leave Luoyang, and today the forward should have arrived in Ruzhou." There was some concern in his words. Although the prince sent troops quickly, it still took time for 100,000 soldiers and horses to mobilize and go out, but Yang Xiu came obviously faster than the prince. If the prince's soldiers and horses did not arrive, they would have lost Nanyang to Yang Xiu, and then they would definitely have no face to see the prince and Guo Shuai.

"Immediately transfer a group of men and horses to Luyang Pass." Guo Zhen frowned, and reported that Yang Xiu had already left the military pass. Wuguan is the south gate of Guanzhong, in the Shangluo Mountain, and once out of Wuguan, immediately is a huge plain, Deng and Tang states have no danger, Xiangyang in the south is backed by the mountain, connecting Tang Deng and Jingxiang. Nanyang City is located in the center of this huge basin plain, with Wuguan in the west, direct access to Guanzhong, Xiangyang in the south, connecting Jingzhou, and Luyang Pass in the north. Luyang Pass is not famous, but it is a necessary road to Luoyang, the north of Nanyang is separated by Funiu Mountain and Henan, Luyang Pass is a pass through Funiu Mountain. If Yang Xiu is allowed to capture this pass, then the prince's soldiers and horses will be blocked in the north of Funiu Mountain, and they will need to take a long detour to enter Nanyang and reach Xiangyang.
