Chapter 83 The North and the South Rise

After deciding to suppress the Fangla uprising, Tan Zhi, a eunuch of the Hui sect, gathered more than 80,000 and 90,000 forbidden and box troops on Gyeonggi Road, known as 100,000, to stabilize the situation in Jiangnan.

After Tan Zhi arrived in Jiangnan, he saw the rebel army coming overwhelmingly, and he was so frightened that his scalp was numb, so he hurriedly contracted his military strength to protect himself, and stretched his neck every day, waiting for his old boss Tong Guan to lead the western soldiers to arrive - the western soldiers were all Han soldiers from Guanyou Hedong, fierce! When they come, there will be hope.

Who knew that the banner was not coming, but what I heard in my ears was bad news - the dignified envoy of the Wuxin Army, the glorious representative of the eunuchs, and the Taiwei Tong Guan Tong Tairen, actually followed in the footsteps of the Taiwei Gao Yu Gao, and was ambushed by the west gate of Liangshan in Shaohua Mountain, Huazhou, Yongxing Army Road, and the Western Army Brigade was annihilated. Ximen Qing was unforgiving, and even the Jingzhao Mansion, the seat of Yongxing Military Road, was taken down bloodlessly, and the savings of Jingzhao Mansion for many years were taken away by Liangshan Caokou, Tong Guan, Wei Wen, the prefect of Jingzhao Mansion, and Liu Yanqing, the governor of Yanyan Jingluo, and Liu Guangshi, the governor of Yanyan Soldiers and Horses, were beheaded at the entrance of Jingzhao Mansion.

Tan Zhi looked at the funeral newspaper, like five thunders on the top, Tong Gonggong is the white jade pillar of the Great Song Dynasty, driving the sea purple gold beam, even his old man is dead, leaving himself alone, how can this soldier live in chaos?

As if he had a heart, after the Fang La anti-thieves on the opposite side received the news that Liangshan Ximen Qing had broken Tong Guanxi's soldiers, they were like drinking deer blood, and a group of anti-thieves opened the gate and released water, screaming and pounced to play with Tan Shu. Eunuch Tan was delicate and expensive, and he couldn't afford to play with these Jiangnan mud legs, so he turned around and ran, and the 90,000 army was defeated, and even the base camp Suzhou was surrendered to the rebel army.

Tan Zhen's run can make the two of them miserable. Who is it? It is Zhu Chong, Zhu Mian and his son who had unlimited scenery at the beginning and limited scenery now. Since the beginning of the Fangla uprising, the father and son have been temporarily unlucky, and have been deposed from their official positions by officials who tried to appease the people. The father and son of the Zhu family don't care, anyway, as long as the limelight passes, the upper and lower levels have enough money, and the official is properly reinstated, and the scenery is infinite at that time.

Originally, I thought that Tan Zhi and Tan Eunuch brought 90,000 horses, plus the original 20,000 or 30,000 remnants in Suzhou City, how could they keep the city of Suzhou as impregnable, who knew that Eunuch Tan's courage was supported by the distant Tong Guan for him, and when he heard that Tong Guan had died under Ximenqing's hands, Tan Zhi broke his courage and jumped up faster than rabbits, the most lacking virtue is that this guy received the heavy gift of the Zhu family father and son in vain, and not only did he not hitchhike when he escaped, but he didn't even say a word.

When the rebel army entered the city, Zhu Mian's father wanted to run, who wanted Zhu Chong's misty to have a seizure, threw himself on the door of his own vault, hugged the copper lock and cried, but he didn't let go. Zhu Mian was so anxious that he wanted to vomit old blood, and when he was pulling and pulling with his father, the rebels came to the door. Although the Zhu family raised a lot of dog legs, but on weekdays, the dog is unstoppable when fighting the official position, demolishing people's homes, and seizing people's property.

However, facts have proved that in the face of the deep feud in the sea of blood, even if you change the rudder when you see the wind, it will not end well. After the capture of Zhu Chong and Zhu Mian's father and son, the people of Jiangnan came to the empty city, and the outside of Suzhou was crowded out, and the Zhu family father and son and a group of corrupt officials and lackeys who usually act for the tiger were slaughtered in public, or cut off their limbs, or probed their lungs and intestines, or boiled with anointing oil, or shot indiscriminately, and prepared all the poison to pay for the grievances.

It's not that the people of Jiangnan are too ruthless, but that corrupt officials and corrupt officials do a lot of evil on weekdays. What's more, the people's eyes are bright - among the captured officials in Suzhou City is Xiuning County's Zhixian Lu Sifu, this Qizhi County is a brainless and hard-headed, the rebels captured him and wanted him to surrender, but Luzhi County scolded endlessly, only saying: "Why don't you kill me quickly?" ”

At this time, on the slaughterhouse, blood flowed and the dying howled, like hell, but the face of the county did not change, and the audience was all respectful. The executioner sighed: "On the day of the slaughter of Xiuning County in the Gongyi of the Glue Gongyi, there is good governance, and there is no official before and after, who can bear to kill the public?" Watching the execution, tens of thousands of people raised their arms and shouted - "good"! Its sound shook the world.

When Fang La heard this, he also sighed: "I still have a Qing official in the south of the Yangtze River? So the gift was re-added, and the heir of the koji was not accepted, and Fang La went back to himself.

It stands to reason that the Celestial Empire has finally come up with a typical example of a clean official, and it is right to add an official to the heir of the Celestial Empire, and to do it in a face-saving way to save people's hearts. Who knew that Tan Zhi lost Suzhou and was anxious to find a scapegoat, so a letter was sent, framing Lu Heifu as a spy of Fang La's anti-thief, if he hadn't been in the outside, Suzhou City would not have been thousands of miles away and collapsed in the anthill, and Zhu Mian and other loyal ministers would not have unjustly killed the thieves.

Huizong saw the eunuch sent up the chapter, convinced, Long Yan was furious, and immediately awarded the jade, there is a person who holds the heir of the heir, the reward is 200,000 yuan, and the marquis of the ten thousand households is sealed - the identity of the heir of the widow has increased sharply, and he has become the second among the prisoners of the Heavenly Dynasty - the first place is Ximen Qing, worth 500,000 yuan, and Song Jiang and Chao Gai are only 100,000 yuan.

The household department in charge of finance of the Celestial Empire only said that the heirs of the Celestial Dynasty had become thieves, and there were no talents on the front line who captured the enemy's generals like those who searched for things, and these 200,000 guan were estimated to be empty hands that could not be cashed out in a lifetime. Unexpectedly, as soon as the imperial decree was issued, the news of Tan Zhi came from the southeast - the rebel thief was captured alive!

When the household department heard this, they almost hanged themselves en masse! Now that the imperial court is tightened, it is already a matter of eating grain, and it is stretched, which bastard actually came to join in the excitement of this reward? After inquiring, it turned out that this bastard was none other than the heir himself! After Lizhi County survived from Fang La's butcher's knife, he was obsessed with it, and ran back to the court as his "spy", but he didn't expect to fall into the net.

Of course, Tan Zhen's documents will not say that Lu Heifu delivered the goods to the door by himself, and he still wants to get the 200,000 yuan reward! Eunuch Tan used beautiful words to exaggerate in the above table how he led his troops to fight a bloody battle with Fang La's traitors, how he died nine times, how he coincidentally, how he caught the rebellion hated by the officials, how a certain general, how to work hard, how a certain soldier, and how effective...... Sprinkled with enthusiasm, tens of thousands of words have been updated.

The eyes of the people in the household department are red, at this time, it doesn't matter if you are a sugar eunuch or a vinegar eunuch, whoever wants to cut tendons from my big household will fight with whom! So the officials of the household department did not want to write to the official family like capital, saying that the county was a good minister and loyal minister of the country, and it was framed by traitors......

For a time, the court was divided into the "inverted koji faction" that swore to subvert and the "pro-koji faction" that desperately defended, and the free faction who sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight. In order to promote justice, for the belonging of the 200,000 empty friends, everyone quarreled upside down.

When Huizong was in a dilemma, several news suddenly came one after another - like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, everyone shut up and stopped arguing.

weishenme silent as gold? Because when everyone was fighting, Liangshan Ximenqing had already raised the anti-flag. The momentum of this guy seems to be inferior to that of Jiangnan La, but when Fang La rebelled and attacked the city, he had to hand over the troops to see the battle, but Ximenqing didn't even have to fight, a piece of paper was everywhere, the prefectures, counties, and counties all looked down on the wind, and the soldiers on Jingdong East Road and Jingdong West Road were bloodless, and the whole territory was a thief!

Fortunately, not all states and counties are afraid of Liangshan. When Ximen Qing sent his general Dadao Guan Sheng to lead troops to cross the Yellow River from Nanhua on Jingxi Road and take Huazhou, the officers and soldiers of Huazhou showed generosity and bravery, and went out to fight the thieves. But unfortunately, before the two sides clashed, the rear team of the officers and soldiers of Huazhou ran away, so the whole formation collapsed. There was no need to fight this battle, Guan Sheng rushed forward with the heels of the rout, and the three cities of Huazhou - Huazhou, Yincheng, and Weicheng fell into the hands of the Liangshan army!

After Huazhou arrived, Guan Sheng led troops to live in the city and took pictures of the south; Hao Siwen led troops to Huazhou and prepared the book of Liang Zhongshu in Hebei; Ma Xuanzan of Chou County led troops to Weicheng Town, protecting Guan Sheng and Hao Siwen's grain road.

When the military information came, the city of Tokyo was in an uproar. Emperor Huizong and a group of ministers only then discovered that the place of Huazhou is usually inconspicuous, but now after being occupied by Liangshan, they remembered that this was the dragon diving land of Taizu Zhao Kuangyin - in 953 AD, Guo Wei sent Zhao Kuangyin to Huazhou as a deputy commander - lost the ancestral feng shui treasure, this is worth it?

Putting aside the stakes in the name, let's just talk about the practical - Huazhou is only 220 miles from Tokyo! If Ximen Qing is interested, as long as he gives an order, Guan Sheng's light cavalry swept out, and it was appropriate to hit Tokyo by surprise!

Now it's time to die! The anti-koji faction and the pro-koji faction then shook hands and made peace, and reunited closely with the Xiaoyao faction under the banner of Huizong, and everyone worked together to gather heavy troops in the four cities of Yangwu, Suzao, Fengqiu, and Changyuan between Huazhou and Tokyo.

Under the gathering of the army, Guan Sheng and Ximenqing behind him seemed to be afraid, and they shrank in Huazhou and did not dare to cross the Gyeonggi Road.

Huizong of Tokyo City breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't stand it after not sleeping for a day, and he didn't go to the harem anymore, so he fell asleep in the imperial study where he was deliberating.

When the official family was sleeping soundly, four people came - Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng, Wang Hao, and Hou Meng, the head of the household. To be precise, Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng, and Wang Hao were all "kidnapped" by Hou Meng.

No, no! Lord Hou's eyes were red - after Fang La's rebellion, the southeast tax collector, which was originally a large taxpayer, could not come up, and the household department could not make ends meet, and now he has set up a ban on the Jiu Wan forbidden army, box soldiers, and shop soldiers in the four cities in the north of Gyeonggi, so many people reach out to dress and open their mouths to eat, how much money is the expense? I don't care if I want money, I can't find brass for casting! I can't do this household book! If you don't give me an explanation, I'll give you an explanation!

Lord Hou was willing to cut his whole body and dared to pull the emperor off the horse. After Huizong was pulled up, his sleepy eyes relaxed: "What is Aiqing's play?" ”

Hou Meng told his predicament truthfully, and then said dejectedly: "If the official family doesn't allocate some money from the inner treasury to Weichen, Weichen will be a minister!" ”

Cai Jing waited for a listen-Lord Hou, you are ruthless! The inner treasury is the small treasury of the official family, you are so poor and crazy that you dare to beat the idea of the official inner treasury?!

For a while, Cai Jing and the three of them carefully looked at the color of Huizong, if the official family was touched and rushed to the crown angrily, and wanted to pick up Hou Meng's old man, they had to explain a few words and save the old Hou - it's not that Hou Meng has a relationship with them, on the contrary, this old man is not their **, he belongs to the old and immortal is a thief. But - now this limelight is on fire, the household is a hot potato, if Hou Meng falls, if the official family lets his family take over, then it will be eight lifetimes of blood mold, it is better to let the old Hou head stay in the seat, when to boil to death, when to forget it.

Who knew that Huizong, who was guarding like jade, heard that Hou Meng wanted to put his hand into the bath, but Long Yan was not angry, he just yawned, and lay down again: "Some small things are also here to alarm this Daojun!" Love Qing and return, you don't have to be a minister, you don't have to use the inner library, carefully figure out the words and deeds of the Venerable, it makes sense! After pointing to the maze, the snoring sounded, and the Emperor of Donghua went to cultivate in his dream again.

When Hou Meng was stunned, Cai Jing had already finished figuring it out, comprehended it, and stretched out his hand to pull everyone. Hou Meng and the others knew that Taishi Cai was the best at figuring out his intentions, and now that he had pulled everyone away, he must have been confident, so everyone quietly withdrew from the imperial study.

Far away from the imperial study, Hou Meng pulled Cai Jing and said, "Taishi, what does the official family mean?" ”

Cai Jing smiled and said, "Lord Hou has always been smart and open-minded, but how can he be confused today?" The official family is clearly announcing the decree in the dragon body, so that you can quadruple the tax (sleep) (double)! ”

"Huh?!" Hou Meng was taken aback when he heard this, "Still flipping?" If you turn it over again, you don't have to call from Yangshan West Menqing, and the people of Gyeonggi Province will reverse it first! ”

Liang Shicheng couldn't help but sneer when he heard this. Although he is a eunuch, his power has risen in recent years, and the court calls Cai Jing the prime minister, Tong Guan as the prime minister, and Liang Shi as the hidden minister, which shows how his influence on the government is the same.

At this time, when he heard Hou Meng say that the people wanted to rebel, he was the first to be displeased, and said proudly at the moment: "I am a great Song country rich and strong, and the first is in the world, don't say that if you quadruple the tax, it will be ten times or a hundred times, and it is just a simple change!" It's just that those people are hateful, and the state is trying to support them, and on the occasion of employing people, they don't want to repay the effect, but complain, and they all deserve to be killed! Lord Hou only cares about raising taxes, if there are really people who come forward and let us go to the hundreds of thousands of minions on Gyeonggi Road, I am afraid that we will not be able to clean them up? It's a big deal to build more admonition centers, who dares to complain, catch it, and admonish it indefinitely! Haha! Jiang Ming! What is my idea? ”

Wang Huang's original name was Fu, given to change to 黼, the word will be clear, his person is Chongning Jinshi, more wise and good, widowed academic, because of helping Cai Jing to restore the phase and get credit, and his father Liang Shicheng, so left and right, only to steal a high position, to make fun of the government. At this time, listening to Liang Shicheng's words, he had already cocked his thumb and said well: "The words of the father, the good policy of Zhen'an to stabilize the country!" ”

The three of them walked away laughing and laughing all the way, leaving Hou Meng alone, depressed and exhausted. This is exactly what it is:

Long live a short life because of ten thousand taxes, and the fall of Ducai is **. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
