Chapter 311: Attached to the plot
"Today is the world of the Zhao family, and the Liao State in the north has raised troops to invade the territory several times, but my Yang family general has sat back and watched the south, worthy of the title of the Yang family general." Yang Zhengxiu said.
"But I haven't seen the envoy of the emperor of the Song Dynasty coming, so don't you regard my Chengzhou as a country outside the square and abandon my Yang family?" Yang Zhengheng said.
"Maybe the emperor of the Song Dynasty is not ashamed to edict to the underground who has not been attached to it, and recruit talents, so we can't learn from Jiang Taigong to fish King Wen of Zhou, right?" Yang Zhenglong said.
"Sincerity is open. Big brother, I have a plan, I don't know if it's feasible? Yang Zhengxiu said.
"Pleaseโ" Mr. Yang said.
"Today, the place of Chengzhou is thousands of miles, with millions of people and tens of thousands of strong soldiers, but there is no place for it. If you enter Tokyo to donate the territory, I don't know if it's right? Yang Zhengxiu suggested.
"My father once taught my ten brothers that they should be loyal and patriotic, that the country should be unified, and that the people should live and work in peace and contentment. I often think about the return to the Song Dynasty day and night. Yang Zhenglong bowed slightly.
Zhao Kuangyin was extremely distrustful of the generals who supported him as the emperor, and released his military power with a glass of wine, fearing that one day he would follow his example and usurp the throne. A companion is like a tiger! Yang Zhengyan disagreed.
"He has his own reasons, as long as we are loyal, forgive him and dare not do anything to my brother." Yang Zhengtao saw the sword put on the table.
"If the Zhao family fails to my family, my Chengzhou fathers and villagers have a tradition of martial arts, and they all obey my Yang family. All the people raised troops to make trouble, and it was not so difficult to pull him off the horse, and he could not eat and walk. Yang Zhengyan stroked his beard.
"My ten brothers, not all of them can enter Beijing, once they are restrained and do not return, the second brother Zhengtao and the seventh brother Zhengxiu will stay behind, and there will be a chance to protect the land of Chengzhou." Yang Zhenglong nodded in agreement.
"Well, such a big thing has to be combined with them."
So Yang Zhenglong and Yang Zhengyan flew pigeons to pass the book to the lords of each mountain and went to Chengzhou to discuss the mountain......
In the eighth year of Song Kaibao (975), Yang Zhenglong's brothers since the death of their father Yang Zaisi, Tang Zuo has ended, and the hearts of the people have returned to the Song Dynasty.
In the Zichen Hall of the imperial city of Tokyo (now Kaifeng, Henan), Song Taizu met with Yang Zhenglong, Yang Zhengyan and other brothers from Chenghuizhou.
"I have been the emperor for more than ten years, why did you only see me today?" Zhao Kuangyin said angrily.
"The ministers are afraid, the Southern Han Dynasty often intrudes on the border areas of Chengzhou, and the Wu Dynasty and the southwestern tribes in Vietnam are eyeing each other and are busy with wars, so it is too late." Yang Zhengyan is neither humble nor arrogant.
"Then the son of the Zhao family, the Yang family general, how do you explain it?" Zhao Kuangyin asked.
"This is a rumor, not from my Yang family. My Yang family has always been orthodox, but now His Majesty has set the world, and the people's hearts are also attached. Yang Zhengyan said.
"If you don't change the dynasty or not, what's the explanation?" Zhao Kuangyin was still unhappy.
"Your Majesty is the true dragon son of heaven, and the Yang family has been loyal to the court for generations, and has no other intentions." Yang Zhenglong said.
"Oh. The son of heaven of the Zhao family has been in heaven for thousands of years, I like this, with the assistance of the Yang family, guarding the territory, my Zhao family can sit back and relax. Zhao Kuangyin changed his face.
"Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, my father has guarded the territory and protected the territory, and has not attached himself to Liang, Chu, etc. A hundred years later, my father's last words, when China is unified, we must be diligent king, and my Yang family has the totem 'carp jumping over the dragon gate' as evidence. โ
So Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin Longxin was happy: "The Yang father and son have a good strategy for the world, and they have meritorious service in defending the land, and they are models in Jingbian." "Aiqing, how should I reward you?"
"Don't dare, sincerity is enough." Yang Zhenglong, Yang Zhengyan Road.
"I'm happy today, I have won thousands of miles without blood, and I have to seal your Yang family. Bucheng is not enough to represent the land of Chengzhou, so it is better to change the name of Chengbu Village. โ
"Emperor Shengming, long live, long live, long live!" Brother Yang Zhengyan kowtowed and thanked him.
Effortlessly, subduing Chenghuizhou and other foreign countries, the overjoyed Song Taizu then issued a decree, sealing Yang Zhengyan as the history of Chengzhou, hereditary fatherhood, governing Chengzhou, sealing Yang Zhenglong as the governor of Linzhou, governing the entrance of the cave. Feng Yang Zhengtao was the defense envoy of Hu'er, Guzhou, Liuzhou and other places to govern Hu'er. Feng Yang Zhengxiu is the history of thorns, governing the city step, and governing Suining, Chengbu, Xinning, Wugang and other villages.
Feng Yang is about to pacify 80,000 soldiers and civilians in Guzhou and govern Guzhou. Feng Yang is the history of Hongzhou thorn and governs Hongzhou. Feng Yang Zhengwan is the governor of Banzhou and lives in Suining. Feng Yang Zhengsong was appointed as the envoy of Xinjiang defense and governed Xinjiang. Feng Yang Zhengquan was appointed as the captain and governed Tan Xi. Feng Yang Zhengjian was the general of Weisheng, and the town was Qianyang.
Song Taizu also posthumously awarded Yang Zaisi as the history of Chengzhou, bestowed the title of Duke Yinghui and Marquis Yinghui, erected the tombstone of Marquis Yinghui, rewarded the table, and rewarded the brothers with silk silk to return home. From the second reign onwards, he served with the officials and scattered in ten places. The descendants began to marry and merge with the indigenous Miao tribes.
The Song Dynasty set up local political power in ethnic minority areas, such as the Governor's Office, the Military and Civilian Administration, and the Metropolitan Protectorate. Since the third generation, the descendants of Yang Zaisi have inherited the Tufu of 80,000 military and civilian governors in Guzhou, etc., the government and the people are connected, and the local level has been leveled, and there has been an unprecedented prosperity. The imperial court missed the virtue of Yang's rule of the world, and praised Yang Zaisi as a prince nine times, carried forward the virtue of the fan, and gave the temple support.
People of various ethnic groups in the Wuxi area have also built temples to worship Yang Zaisi. The incense is still burning to this day. Later, the Southern Song Dynasty poet Lu You went to the Feishan Temple to worship, and was inspired by Yang Zaisi's loyalty and patriotism. Open up Wanghua Road, Xuanren Buyi Zhuang mountains and rivers.
In 975, Zhao Guangyi seized the scepter through the "candlelight axe shadow" coup, his main energy was to fight with the Liao State in the north, seize the sixteen states of Youyun, and also believed that Yang Zhengyan's Miao Barbarian territory was "the country outside the square", and it was enough to return to the Great Song Dynasty, and he disdained to use troops, so the land of Yang Zhengyan Chengzhou in the early Song Dynasty was a state of bondage, and the Yang group still relied on it.
In the fourth year of Taiping Xingguo (979), Yang Tongyun (the son of Yang Zhengxiu), the leader of the Feishan Barbarians, dedicated the soil and began to attach it. In the fifth year of Taiping Xingguo (980), Yang Tongbao (the son of Yang Zhengyan) paid tribute, and Emperor Taizong ordered him to be the assassin of Chengzhou and continue to be his Miao king.
In the second year of Chunhua (991), Yang Zhengyan, the assassin of Chengzhou, came back to pay tribute, and was the year of Zhengyan's death, and his son Yang Tongying succeeded him as the governor.
In the third year of Qingli (1043), the imperial court actually issued a ridiculous order to the military camps on the Hunan Road, saying "kill a barbarian, reward ten thousand", encourage the Song army to kill more barbarians, and post notices everywhere.
Some officers and soldiers with a sense of justice were very confused by the imperial court's approach, the land of Chenghui had been attached to the Great Song Dynasty for many years, and the barbarians were also the subjects of the Great Song Dynasty, which would inevitably cause turmoil in the situation.
Some money-greedy soldiers think that if they have money, they will not be considered to be in the army, not to mention that the Yang family, the patron saint of the barbarians, has gone to the north and Western Xia and Liao, and the whip is beyond the reach of the whip, killing Miao Man in Chenghuizhou, and the Yang family general will not dare to do anything, not to mention that this is the emperor's will, and the duty of a soldier is to obey orders.
As a result, these Song troops stationed in the Wuxi area raised their butcher knives one after another, slashed at the heads of the unarmed Miao people, and killed the killers, and sometimes some Song soldiers even fought for money.
For a time, Chenghui Prefecture became the slaughterhouse of the Song army, and the people were panicked, and the Miao people did not dare to go out to farm and farm, so they had to hide at home. But those frenzied executioners still did not let go, as long as there was a place where there was a population, they flocked to the village in groups of three or five, searched from house to house, killed anyone they saw, and after the killing, looted all their belongings, and then burned them down.
The Miao people in the Wuxi area fled into the deep mountains and old forests one after another, avoiding the pursuit of the Song army, and the crops were ripe and no one harvested them, and some Miao people were so hungry that they had to take advantage of the moonlight to grab the harvest, and they had to retreat to the mountains before dawn. Under the ravages of the Song army, the Miao people had no place to stand and were struggling in pain.
The southern border of Chengbu Zhai belongs to the scope of activities of the Xiyuan Barbarians and the Guizhou Barbarians, and there has always been a tradition that once something happens, they will support each other and unite as one, even if they fight to the last drop of blood, they will not succumb to violent rule.
Gutian Mountain is high and deep, the big trees are towering to the sky, the jungle is dense, there are nine curves of ileal water passing through, and the annual output of grain is 100,000 quintals.
In the third year of Jiayou (1058), the Miao people of Wugang Army (the county governs the city of Bu Rulin Town) were really cornered, and three thousand Miao people gathered in Gutian to start an incident, and the leader was called Yang Changjin.
Gutian is 120 miles away from the county seat of Wugang Army, and the Wugang official army was ordered by Guo Kui, the governor of Shaozhou, to exterminate it. Song Jun walked to the foot of Gutian Mountain, already exhausted. The rebel army was condescending, and had already prepared a large number of rolling stones and logs to give the official army a head-on blow, and the Song army was defeated.
Gutian did not fall for several months, which greatly encouraged the fighting spirit of the Miao people, and the ninety regiments of Chenghui Prefecture joined one after another, rebelling against the mediocre rule of the imperial court, and the number of rebels increased to tens of thousands, occupying more and more land.
The rebels took advantage of the situation to pursue, killed the county seat of Wugang, broke through the yamen, opened the granary of the government, distributed grain to the Miao people, and suppressed a group of local tyrants and bullies.
The emperor who was far away in Bianliang panicked and said, "Could it be that the legendary true dragon is going to appear in Gutian again?" If you don't change the dynasty or not, is this what you are talking about? also said that the son of heaven of the Zhao family has been around for thousands of years, nonsense! Then he issued an edict ordering the Song troops from Guangxi, Hubei, and Hunan to enter Chengbu Village and assist Guo Kui in suppressing the uprising.
Guo Kui mobilized a large number of artillery and firearms, rockets, fireballs and other weapons from all over the place to form a firearms special force, leading 20,000 soldiers, and besieging Wugang City like an iron pass, and the rebels in the city could not escape.
Yang Changjin, who was in Gutian, learned that 5,000 rebels were besieged in the county seat, and his son Yang Shengtian was also in the city, so he was anxious, and personally led more than 20,000 soldiers, marching north at full speed to rescue Wugang City, but he didn't know anything about Guo Kui's mysterious troops.
The Song army divided 10,000 troops, carried firearms, and ambushed in dangerous passes such as corridors in the valleys of the two rivers, opening their pockets and waiting for the rebels to enter. The Song army spent a lot of effort to pull dozens of artillery pieces up the mountain, hiding in the depths of the trees, and the muzzles of the black holes had been adjusted.
