Winter is coming, and Jiangnan should have been in full bloom.

It's just that it seems to be affected by the cold snap in the north, and Jiangnan, which was originally warm in Jiangnan, is also snowing heavily. The heavy snow is flying all over the sky, which makes the Jiangnan people who rarely see the wind and snow obsessed, or chanting poems, or appreciating the snow and filling in the words, which is wonderful.

It's just that all of this has nothing to do with Zhao Pu!

"It's snowing again, and the north is going to be hit again!" Zhao Pu sighed, bitter in his heart.

In recent years, the wind and rain in the south of the Yangtze River have been smooth, and there has been a bumper harvest every year. In the north, it is much worse, and various disasters continue one after another.

This heavy snowfall caused very little damage to Jiangnan; But the damage to the north is great. With this heavy snowfall, the north was once again affected. After the disaster, the Jin country's desire to invade the south became stronger; And the people of Jiangnan have long healed their scars and forgotten the pain, and the scene of the robbery of the Jin Kingdom in the past has long been forgotten.

"Oh no, Your Majesty, the Jin army is going south in three ways and attacking our dynasty. After the fierce battle, they were repulsed by our army, but the frontier soldiers suffered heavy losses...... "At this time, the guards on the side reported the latest battle situation, and the situation on the front line was a little tight.

Zhao Pu took the battle report and read it.

In winter, the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty were not tolerant of the bitter cold, and most of them nested in the city, wanting to avoid the cold winter; However, the Jin army was full of energy, and went south many times to plunder, mainly to grab grain, and to grab the food needed for the winter.

The Jin army went south in three ways, and the momentum was violent, but compared with a few years ago, the momentum was like a tiger, strong and invincible, and it was much inferior.

The three-way army went south, and some of them were weak. Just wandering around some cities on the border, I don't have the courage to go deeper. And in the confrontation, Song and Jin sides. There were victories and defeats against each other, and in some siege battles, the Jin army suffered many setbacks and had to retreat; Some of the cities were looted at this time.

"The situation is not good!"

Zhao Pu pondered.

"Quickly gather the military minister and enter the palace!"

…………

The ministers took their seats in the palace and began to discuss the front-line operations.

Until it was already dark. The meeting just ended.

"Oh no, the homeless people are in chaos again!" At this time, Ruixue came with bad news again.

Zhao Pu suddenly felt extremely tired. The house leak happened to rain overnight, and bad things always came together.

"Say it!"

"Dingzhou Wuling Zhong Xiang made a mess, built a big Chu, and Zhong was called the king of Chu. The era is called the Heavenly War. Nonsense "equal to the noble and low, both rich and poor", contrary to the way of Confucius and Mencius, Confucianism suffered a lot. Displaced people from 19 counties in Dingzhou, Lizhou, Jingnan, Tanzhou, Xiazhou, Yuezhou, Chenzhou and other places responded one after another, captured Taoyuan, and stationed in Lizhou. Hubei is in chaos! ”

Zhao Pu smiled bitterly: "It's troublesome again!" ”

Over the years, Zhao Pu has tried his best to reform the malaise, but only improved the combat effectiveness of the army. And some deep, haven't moved yet.

Because it's not qualified. Major surgery will inevitably lead to great turmoil, which is not conducive to the Northern Expedition.

So, the old rules are still the same, and the people should suffer, or suffer. Those gentry and landlords, should be exploited or still exploited. From time to time, peasants who had lost their land rebelled and attacked the county seats, but most of them did not succeed and were exterminated as soon as they developed.

In the recitals, there are many scenes of peasants who have lost their land revolting and revolting, but the ending is tragic.

The peasants of Guixi County, Xinzhou, revolted under the leadership of Wang Zongshi and captured Guixi and Yiyang counties. The peasant army used Manichaeism to connect and grew to more than 100,000 people. It's just that it didn't last for less than two months, and it was defeated. The peasant leaders were killed.

The peasants of Ouning County, Jianzhou, revolted, with Fan Ru as the leader. In August, the peasant army captured Jianyang County, which grew to tens of thousands. It was only soon that Fan Ru accepted "Zhao'an" and accepted the official title of "Commander of the Fujian Militia" of the imperial court. After ordering the disbandment and return to the peasants, Fan Ru did not obey, the Song army besieged Jianzhou, and Fan Ruwei committed suicide.

The peasants of Jizhou revolted under the leadership of three sisters, Peng You, Li Man, Wang Yan and Liao Bagu, and captured eight county towns in Jiangxi and Hunan, and the revolt expanded to tens of thousands. After failure.

Chen Hao led thousands of people to revolt in Qianzhou and attacked Yandu, Xinfeng and other counties. Later, it developed to more than 100,000 people, and was active in Xun, Mei, Chao, Hui, Ying, Shao, Guangzhou, Nanxiong and other prefectures in Guangdong, Qianzhou, Nan'anjun and Jianchang in Jiangxi, Tingzhou and Shaowujun in Fujian. Only in the Xingguo defeat and death.

The Yangtai peasant army took Dongting Lake as a base and established a water village, and the peasant army grew to 200,000 people. The occupied area extends to Gong'an in the north, Ding and Li in the west, Yueyang in the east, and Changsha in the south. Later, the Song army was defeated in the lower reaches of Dongting Lake.

After the defeat of Dongting Lake. Huang Zuo, Yang Qin and others rebelled and surrendered to the Song Dynasty, and Yang Tai died in battle.

In the recitals, there are many descriptions of the homeless people making rebellion, but in fact, they are not to blame, as the so-called officials forced the people to rebel, and they had to rebel. It's just that their resistance is very weak and weak, and they can't shake the foundation of the Song Dynasty at all.

Even if they are strong, as long as they mobilize the border army to attack, they will soon be defeated.

Zhao Pu is very sympathetic to them, but sympathy is sympathy, and when it is time to do it, it will still be a black hand.

The ass decides the head, as the emperor, the Great Song Dynasty is ranked first, these chaotic ministers and thieves are naturally ruthless.

And at this moment, Zhong Xiang and others are in chaos in Hubei, then Xiangyang is bound to be unstable, Xiangyang is unstable, and the middle route army is also blocked.

At this moment, Zhao Pu somewhat understood Emperor Chongzhen's plight, he had to fight both internally and externally, and he was extremely hard to fight with two fists. At this moment, Zhao Pu had to stop the pace of the Northern Expedition, and specially swept away the internal chaos.

"Quickly order, Li Ruoshui mobilized a water division, Li Pojun led the elite soldiers of Xiangyang, attacked Dongting Lake, and quickly put down the rebellion............" Zhao Pu said quickly while thinking.

And the eunuch on the side quickly drafted the will.

After the eunuch finished writing, he handed it to Zhao Pu.

Zhao Pu took it in his hand, looked at it roughly, and when he was sure that it was about the same, he ordered someone to hand it over to the cabinet for refinement.

And counterinsurgency costs money, which makes the already financially sophisticated money bag even more short of money.

Thinking of this, Zhao Pu felt uncomfortable.

It is not enough to just counterinsurgency, and it is not enough to rely on military means. It is also necessary to assist other means and multi-level shots to achieve the best results.

…………

After receiving the order to go out to quell the rebellion, Li Ruoshui was just stunned, and then led hundreds of large and small ships to prepare to set off.

"I have rebels in Hubei, I want to put down the rebellion!" Li Ruoshui said, "Over the years, my Great Song Dynasty has been worried about internal and external troubles, after fighting foreign wars, fighting civil wars, first fierce battles against the Jin Army, and then quelling the rebellion of the displaced people, I don't know when and where, I have a head!" ”

Yu Yunwen said: "Born in troubled times, we don't have much choice!" ”

"This is the piece I wrote, please pass it on to the emperor on my behalf!" Li Ruoshui handed over a recital.

Yu Yunwen took it and said, "Brother Xian, take care along the way!" ”

"Don't worry, those rebels are just chickens and dogs, at least in January, and at most in February and March!" Li Ruoshui is full of confidence, and after years of fighting, he has already developed a calm mentality.

"In this battle, is it mainly suppressed, or is it mainly appeased?" Yu Yunwen asked.

"Mainly suppressed, supplemented by fu!" Li Ruoshui said.

Yu Yunwen shook his head and said, "Wrong! ”

"Wrong!" Li Ruoshui was stunned.

"Over the years, some people have attached importance to extermination, and some people have attached importance to appeasement, although they have solved the turmoil of the displaced people many times, but it has always been a symptom but not a cure. Over the years, the displaced people have been in turmoil, small unrest every year, and big unrest once every three or five years! I am tired of coping, the rebellion of the displaced people, and the Northern Expedition is powerless! ”

Yu Yunwen sighed.

Over the years, the displaced people have been in turmoil, as if they had knocked down a gourd, and the scoop rose again, wave after wave, continuously.

I don't feel a little disgusted, but what about disgust, when it's time to make a move, you still need to make a move.

Li Ruoshui said: "Since the founding of our dynasty, this has been the case, and we have no choice!" ”

"If we do not restrain land annexation, this is a natural disaster. It's just that with the emperor's ability, he wants to suppress land annexation, but he can't! Yu Yunwen said, "The civil strife is uneven, why the Northern Expedition." If we wait on the front line to fight for the Jin Army, and someone in the rear makes a disturbance and moves my Great Song Foundation, it will not be good! ”

At this moment, there was no Northern Expedition, and most of the main forces were gathered in the Song Realm, and even if there was a rebellion, it could be easily suppressed. I'm afraid, when the Song and Jin fought at a critical moment, when the main force of the Song army went deep into the enemy's territory, the rebels of the displaced people rose again, causing the Northern Expedition to fall short. (To be continued......)
