Chapter 211: Li Cun is one step closer to the First Emperor of the Ages (Ask for a monthly ticket!) )
After the three states of Pingluanying were defeated by Wu Jue, they have been unstable - the people of the three states of Pingluanying have a tendency to rebel all the time.
This is not only because the people of Pingluanying Sanzhou are unruly and unwilling to obey the control of the Han people, but also because Zhang Jue, who fled to the Zhao and Song Dynasty, hooked up with the people of Pingluanying Sanzhou from time to time and encouraged them to rebel.
Finally, in early September, at the instigation of Zhang Jue, Zhang Dungu led the gentry and nobles of Pingzhou to gather a rebellion in an attempt to recapture Pingzhou.
Fortunately, Wu Jue had already prepared, and as soon as Zhang Dungu and the others made a move, Wu Jue extinguished their rebellion.
When Li Cun learned of this, he was furious and ordered Wu Jie to arrest all the noble families of the gentry and nobles in the three states of Pingluanying, and then send someone to conduct a public trial.
As soon as this butcher's knife was opened, the families of the three states of Pingluanying did not survive in the end, and the blood of the three states of Pingluanying flowed like a river.
This is the first time that Li Cun has gone north, and people finally know that Li Cun is not a good man and a woman, don't make Li Cun angry.
And that's not all, Li Cun confiscated all the remaining "one" land.
Subsequently, Li Cun distributed the fields of the families of the three states of Pingluanying to the people of the three states of Pingluanying in the form of work-for-relief.
Then, Li Cun exempted the people of the three prefectures of Pingluanying from paying taxes for another year.
In addition, Li Cun also deliberately opened a phase of Enke for the literati in the three states of Pingluanying, held the imperial examination to take scholars, and filled the Daqian Dynasty.
After using these methods again, the three states of Pingluanying finally stabilized.
But Pingluanying Sanzhou has stabilized, but Li Cun has not forgotten Zhang Jue, who has brought him a lot of trouble.
The key is that if Li Cun can let the Zhao Song Dynasty kill Zhang Jue, it will make the Zhao Song Dynasty chill the hearts of the Liao people who surrendered to the Zhao Song Dynasty.
If nothing else, the Zhao and Song dynasties relied on the trump card of the victorious army and the righteous victorious army to break down.
This is likely to save Li a lot of effort on the road to unification.
Let's ask, how could Li Cun not implement it?
However, Li Cun didn't worry about this matter personally, he just asked Han Fang to send someone to ask the Zhao Song Dynasty for Zhang Jue, and told Han Fang that if the Zhao Song Dynasty didn't give Zhang Jue to him, he would immediately send troops to attack the Zhao Song Dynasty.
Wu Desi, the pro-army Duwei Mansion and the Military Intelligence Department have all been found, and Zhang Jue fled to Zhuozhou, and is now in the Changsheng Army.
At present, there are more than 50,000 elite cavalry in the Changsheng army alone, including all the township soldiers, and the Changsheng army claims to have 300,000 soldiers.
The "300,000" army was all under the command of Guo Yaoshi.
Zhang Jue can see very clearly that Guo Yaoshi is powerful and is a real power, and he even has the tendency to listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement.
Therefore, Zhang Jue nominally voted for the Zhao and Song dynasties, but in fact he voted for Guo Yaoshi.
Guo Yaoshi felt that his strength was strong and he could completely protect Zhang Jue, so he assured Zhang Jue that whoever came would not be able to move Zhang Jue.
Pharmacist Guo's arrogance now is not only reflected in the fact that he dares to protect Zhang Jue in a big way, but also in the fact that he doesn't take anyone seriously.
Moreover, Guo Yaoshi and his subordinates wore Zuo Wei in a grand manner, that is, they never wore Song clothes, only Liao clothes, and became the only "clear stream" in this part of Yanshan Hebei, as if they were the last Liao people.
Zhuozhou Zhizhou Zhan Du was very dissatisfied with what Guo Yaoshi did.
Zhan Du is a native of Jinyun, Zhejiang, he was born in a family of eunuchs - his grandfather was an official to the Ministry of Rites, a scholar of the Guanwen Palace and a member of the Governor of the State of Qi, and he was a prominent official.
Zhan Du himself is very talented, in the early years of Zhenghe when he knew Zhenzhou, the imperial court assessment was excellent, plus Zhilong Tuge, at the age of 36, he served as a transfer envoy in eastern Zhejiang and western Zhejiang, in charge of the two financial endowments and the power of supervising and supervising local officials in the state and county. In the third year of Xuanhe, he served as the head of the Ma Bujun capital and the pacification envoy of Zhongshan, guarding Zhongshan Mansion, a strategic place in Hebei.
This time, the Zhao and Song dynasties sent Zhan Du to guard the northern frontier, and Zhan Du knew that the responsibility was heavy.
So Zhan Du didn't dare to relax at all.
For Guo Yaoshi, a general, he was obviously extremely favored by the Zhao and Song dynasties, but he still regarded himself as a Liao minister, and Zhan Du was extremely unaccustomed to it.
The key is that Zhan Du feels that Zhao Ji's power to Guo Yaoshi is too great.
If something goes wrong with this Guo pharmacist, then the Zhao Song Dynasty will be in danger.
Therefore, if Zhan Du wants to limit Guo Yaoshi's power, it is best to split up part of the Changsheng Army and join the forbidden army.
In this way, the forbidden army and the victorious army can contain each other and complement each other.
Zhan Du was the governor of Zhuozhou, the nominal military and political director of Zhuozhou.
But in fact, in addition to the Changsheng Army, the forbidden army here in Zhuozhou has only 9,000 men, which cannot be compared with the Changsheng Army, which claims to have "300,000".
In this way, if Zhan Du wants to take full control of the army, he must let Guo Yaoshi obey his orders.
However, the Zhao and Song dynasties have been fighting with each other on the matter of who is older and who is smaller than Zhan Du and Guo Yaoshi.
Guo Yaoshi believes that in Zhao Ji's imperial pen edict, he has the title of "Jieyue", and the position of power should be above Zhan Du.
Zhan Du believes that the ranking order on Zhao Jiyu's pen is the order of power positions, his name is ranked first, and Guo Yaoshi's name is ranked last, which means that his power position should be higher than Guo Yaoshi.
Neither of the two could convince anyone, and the conflict became more and more acute.
In the end, the two had no choice but to give Zhao Ji a chapter and ask Zhao Ji to explain that his status was above the other party.
Zhan Du was even ready, as long as Zhao Ji supported him, he would begin to limit the power of Guo Yaoshi, divide the Changsheng army, and then strengthen the strength of the forbidden army in his hands.
But Zhao Ji felt that the guards on the border were inseparable from Guo Yaoshi and Chang Shengjun, so he issued an edict to transfer Zhan Du and Cai Jing, the prefect of Hejian.
Cai Jing is not as sharp as Zhan Du, and he does not compete with Guo Yaoshi for military power, and accommodates Guo Yaoshi in everything.
In addition, Guo Yaoshi also understood that if he took the good-tempered Cai Jing away, the Zhao Song Dynasty should suspect that the person with the problem was him.
The key is that Cai Jing really does not fight the idea of controlling the Chang Shengjun.
Therefore, Pharmacist Guo's flying and domineering attitude was somewhat restrained, and he began to cooperate with Cai Jing's work.
However, the military power on the border has always been firmly controlled by Guo Yaoshi.
Xiao Rong, who was sent by Han Fang to ask for Zhang Jue, came to Zhuozhou with an official document issued by the Ministry of Rites of the Daqian Dynasty, asked Cai Jing for Zhang Jue, and said that if the Zhao Song Dynasty did not hand over Zhang Jue, the Daqian Dynasty would send troops to attack the Zhao Song Dynasty.
Cai Jing hurriedly reported the matter to the Zhao and Song courts.
After Zhao Ji heard this, he was both angry and helpless.
After thinking about it, Zhao Ji ordered Cai Jing to hide Zhang Jue and not admit that Zhang Jue was in the Zhao Song Dynasty.
But as soon as Cai Jing finished telling Xiao Rong that Zhang Jue didn't know where he went, he was not in the Zhao Song Dynasty at all, so Xiao Rong honestly and unceremoniously pointed out that Zhang Jue was in the armor of the Changsheng Army.
Cai Jing couldn't resist the pressure, and went to ask Zhao Ji again.
Zhao Ji simply issued an edict and asked Cai Jing to kill a person who looked similar to Zhang Jue and hand it over to Xiao Rong to calm the situation.
But Xiao Rong took the head back to Yanjing City and let people who were familiar with Zhang Jue see it, and they immediately recognized it, this Zhang Jue was fake.
At the same time, Wu Desi, the pro-army Duwei Mansion and the Military Intelligence Department also inquired that Zhang Jue was still alive and hiding in Guo Yaoshi's house.
Xiao Rong came to Zhuozhou again, and directly put down the cruel words: "If your family doesn't hand over the real Zhang Jue, Your Majesty will raise troops to take it for yourself." ”
At this time, although the Song and Jin had reached an agreement on a joint attack on the Qian, the armies of Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang had not yet arrived, and the Zhao and Song dynasties did not dare to start a war with the Daqian Dynasty alone.
Out of fear of the Daqian Dynasty and his intolerability, Zhao Ji ordered Zhang Jue to be executed, and sent Zhang Jue and Zhang Jue's henchmen to Li Cun.
After Zhao Liangsi learned of this, he hurriedly went to the chapter to persuade Zhao Ji not to hand over Zhang Jue, otherwise it would cause Yanzhi's surrender and Chang Sheng's army to be unstable.
But Zhao Ji didn't think that a small Zhang Jue could have such a big impact.
Therefore, Zhao Ji insisted on letting Cai Jing continue to carry out this order.
Soon, after Zhang Jue was hanged, his head was stained with mercury, and together with Zhang Jue's two sons, he was sent to Yanjing and handed over to the Daqian Dynasty.
After the news spread, General Yan Zhizhen and the Chang Shengjun army really cried for Zhang Jue.
Guo Yaoshi even openly said very indignantly to people: "If the great cadres want Zhang Jue, the imperial court will be with them, if they ask for a pharmacist, they will also be with them?" If you come to ask for a pharmacist, what can you do? ”
Zhang Linghui and other generals of the victorious army were also very cold to the Zhao and Song dynasties, and even gritted their teeth with hatred.
Since then, the Chang Shengjun has become more distracted by the Zhao and Song dynasties.
……
Not long ago, the Great Qian Dynasty and the Western Xia fought a decisive battle at the Sanggan River.
Yue Fei and Zhao Bingyuan used Li Cun's tactics of defeating the Tatar army to defeat the 30,000 troops of Western Xia.
At that time, it was the autumn rain, flash floods, and the river swelled, and countless people drowned in the Xia soldiers.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yue Fei swept through the Yunnan prefectures and drove all the Western Xia troops to Wu and Shuo.
At the same time, the Soviet Union and Eastern China also swept the states of Yunbei.
The cadres and troops are like bamboos in the clouds, and they are about to fully recover the clouds.
Li Qianshun, the lord of the Western Xia state, saw that the combat effectiveness of the Qianjun army was too strong, and the Xixia army could not resist the attack of the Qianjun army at all, so he sent envoys to sue for peace with the Daqian Dynasty.
The envoys sent by Li Qianshun showed the Daqian Dynasty the land cession treaty from Yelu Yanxi to the Western Xia, that is, the treaty under which Yelu Yanxi ceded the two prefectures of Wushuo, Tiandejun, Yunnei Prefecture and the Eight Pavilions of Hedong to the Western Xia.
The envoys sent by Li Qianshun euphemistically said that as long as the Daqian Dynasty agreed to cede these places to the Western Xia, the Western Xia would be willing to regard the Daqian Dynasty as the suzerainty and the two sides would sign a non-aggression treaty.
The two prefectures of Wu and Shuo belonged to the cloud land, how could Li Cun cede them to Western Xia, causing a hole in his defense?
And the eight halls of Hedong, that is, the eight halls of Douda, Gouda, Haodong, Yeque, Shenya, Yulin, Baoda, and Yumin, in the northwest of Shanxi in later generations, belonged to the inherent territory of the Zhao and Song dynasties, and Li Cun was ready to swallow the Zhao and Song dynasties as a whole, how could the Western Xia take the opportunity to take a piece?
As for the Tiande Army and Yunnei Prefecture, they did not belong to the territory of Li Cun, nor did they belong to the inherent territory of the Zhao and Song dynasties.
Of course, not long ago, these two states were recovered by Yelu Yanxi, Li Cun captured Yelu Yanxi and destroyed the Liao State, and it is reasonable to insist that the Tiande Army and Yunnei Prefecture are the territory of the Daqian Dynasty.
But—
To be honest, for Li Cun, who only wants the Yanyun region to keep the Hu people out of the pass, Tiandejun and Yunnei Prefecture are actually chicken-like existences, that is, they are tasteless and it is a pity to abandon them.
But even so, Li Cun was still extremely tough and said: "Yelu Yanxi was captured by me, the Liao State was destroyed by me, and the territory of the Liao State should be owned by me, why should you ask for territory from me in Western Xia, if Li Qianshun wants my territory, even if he sends troops to fight, if he really has the ability, all my big cadres will belong to him, if he doesn't have this ability, he will go back to Western Xia, which angers me, and I will send troops to recover his Western Xia." ”
Li Qianshun and Li Cun's request for Wushuo Erzhou, Tiandejun, Yunnei Prefecture and Hedong Baguan were actually mainly to test Li Cun's bottom line, to see if Li Youyou would make some compromises and concessions to Western Xia in the face of the Song-Jin Alliance's attack on the Great Qian Dynasty.
After all, if the Western Xia also fell to the Song-Jin Alliance, it would be a one-to-three situation for the Daqian Dynasty.
No, Li Cun is so steel, in the face of the Song-Jin Alliance, not only did he not win over Xixia, but also let Xixia let the horse come, and even said it, which angered him, and he would recover Xixia's wild words.
Regarding Li Cun's bad attitude, Li Qianshun not only did not be angry, but he also saw something that others did not see, that is, Li Cun was not afraid of the Song and Jin Union, and maybe with the addition of a Western Xia, Li Cun was not afraid.
Li Qianshun locked himself in the dormitory for one day and one night.
In the end, Li Qianshun made a decision that disappointed his son, Li Renai, the prince of Western Xia—the Western Xia completely withdrew its troops from Yundi and did not get involved in the strife between the Great Qian, the Great Song Dynasty, and the Great Jin Kingdom.
Li Ren'ai has a deep affection for Yelu Yanxi.
I think that at the beginning, when Yelu Yanxi fled west, Li Renai wept when he heard the news, and then asked Li Qianshun to send troops to rescue Yelu Yanxi.
As a result, the reinforcements sent by the Western Xia were defeated by the Jin State in the first battle.
Li Renai cried for almost a month.
Now Yelu Yanxi was arrested by Li Cun, and the concubines, six daughters, and the daughters of the clan were all accepted by Li Cun as concubines, and they were insulted.
After Li Renai heard about this, he was very sympathetic to Yelu Yanxi, and he asked Li Qianshun to send troops to defeat Li Cun, rescue Yelu Yanxi and the royal family and clan personnel of the Liao State, and then help Yelu Yanxi restore the country.
Who knows, Li Qianshun not only did not save Yelu Yanxi and the royal family and clan members of the Liao State and helped Yelu Yanxi restore the country, but also withdrew his troops from Yundi, completely ignoring Yelu Yanxi and the Liao State.
Li Renai tried his best to weep, hoping that Li Qianshun would change his mind and join forces with the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Jin Kingdom to attack the Great Qian Dynasty.
But Li Qianshun didn't listen, and directly withdrew the Western Xia army from Yundi, or even from Yunxi.
Soon after, Li Renai heard that Yelu Yanxi was sent by Li Cun to Yingtianfu, the capital of the Daqian Dynasty, and that Yelu Yanxi's concubine Xiao Guige and Yelu Yanxi's six daughters, as well as many of Yelu Yanxi's concubines, were already pregnant with Li Cun's child, Yelu Yanxi became a joke completely, and the Great Liao Empire was completely dead.
Li Renai felt that this was a great shame, and hated Li Qianshun for not thinking about family affection, so he died of depression at the age of 17.
In the same month, Li Qianshun's queen Yelu Nanxian was sad because of the untimely death of her beloved son, painful because of the destruction of the motherland, and angry because of Li Qianshun's ruthlessness, and then died of hunger strike.
lost his beloved son first and then his queen, which dealt a big blow to Li Qianshun.
Li Qianshun suddenly aged a lot.
Many people advised Li Qianshun to mourn and change.
And there are those who are radical, saying that Yelu Nanxian and Li Ren's love only have the Great Liao Empire, not the Western Xia, and they did not consider the problem from the perspective of the Western Xia at all, and they are unqualified Western Xia queens and Western Xia princes, and they died well.
In any case, the Western Xia first died the crown prince and then the queen, and for a while, they fell into a national mourning.
At the same time, the Great Qian Dynasty was celebrating throughout the country.
Jin Guo left the clouds.
The Zhao and Song dynasties were knocked out of the clouds.
The Liao Emperor Yelu Yanxi was captured by the Daqian Dynasty.
Western Xia took the initiative to withdraw from Yundi.
At present, only some remnants of the Liao army are left in Yundi to resist stubbornly and guard some key places.
Under such circumstances, if there is no external intervention, it will certainly only be a matter of time before the cadres completely recover the Yanyun area.
In other words, the Yanyun region, which has been away from the Han people for more than 200 years, is about to be recovered by Li Cun.
Li Cun is one step closer to the First Emperor of the Ages......
