Chapter 502: The Arrest of the Ambassador
In the army, the reward for meritorious deeds should be timely, especially for the first batch, which is for the people behind to see, which means that you have seen it, the reward is real and real, and you must also work hard, and the court will not treat you badly.
The Wheat Iron Staff captured six military fortresses along the enemy's coast, taking 4,000 prisoners, and the enemy's main general, Su Shili, himself was killed only 800 people.
It's a big win.
After Yang Guang received the military report, he was overjoyed and directly allocated a reward of 100,000 yuan and more than 4,000 horses of cloth to reward the soldiers in front.
As for how to reward the wheat iron staff, under the provocation of many ministers, Yang Guang was unprecedentedly knighted.
Lulong County Gong.
Since Yang Guang succeeded to the throne, he has not been knighted, and the eyes of all major families have seen blood.
Everyone hopes that this time they will be able to get a title in Goguryeo, and as for the reward, they don't care.
Therefore, the wheat iron rod that shoots the first cannon must go to this head, as long as the wheat iron staff can be knighted, the remaining soldiers and horses will also have a chance.
Everyone has worked so hard to come to this place with you, what are you doing? The picture is the title.
And Yang Guang naturally understands this truth, and sealing the wheat iron rod is also to give hope to the people behind, to put it bluntly, it is to draw a pie.
As for the enemy general Su Shili and the 4,000 captives, they naturally had to be escorted back, so that the people of the Great Sui would know that the first battle of the Great Sui had been completely won, and the outcome of the 4,000 captives was naturally to be sold as slaves, and Su Shili was a parade on the streets, and his role was to appease people's hearts.
Lulong County Duke, 500 households in the food district, when the wheat iron rod received the canonization on the front line, wept bitterly, and knelt down to thank him in the direction of Yang Guangxing's palace.
This trick is more effective than anything else, those who don't have a title want to be knighted, and those who have a title want to be promoted to a higher level, people like Li Jing are also excited, he is the second son in the family, the title was attacked by the eldest brother Li Duan, he wants to mix up a knighthood in his life, just look at Goguryeo this time.
Meritorious achievements are in the present.
He Chou and Li Chun are not idle, the two pontoon bridges at the moment, which are urgently erected to grab the beach and land, they will have to build pontoon bridges in the future, after all, there are more than two million people behind the buttocks, counting the people who are responsible for supporting logistics, how can the two bridges be enough?
So they discussed with Deng Wei and planned to build six more pontoon bridges.
Deng Wei has been an official in Liaodong, a big fart place, since he surrendered to the Great Sui, and a southerner will definitely not be able to withstand the bitter cold of the north, so he has been trying to find a way to support the relationship and see if he can be transferred.
This is not far from Bohai County, so through the middleman, he got acquainted with Gao Xi's son Gao Shengdao, thinking that the big tree of Dugu Gong next to him would have the opportunity to return to the Central Plains in the future, but Gao Xi returned to his hometown.
However, as soon as Gao Xi returned to Bohai, he wrote a letter to Deng Wei and arranged how he should be.
Deng Wei also worked very hard, obeyed Gao Xi's arrangement, bought some Sumo people, Jin Ya people, Goguryeo people, and Buyeo people in the local area, and spent a year to explore the location of half of Goguryeo's mountain city, and drew a very detailed map of Goguryeo.
That's a big credit.
No one knows that this is arranged by Gao Xi behind his back, so this credit naturally goes to Deng Wei's head.
The front line was so smooth, and Deng Wei made great contributions, so Li Jing and Tu Wanxu's requests for merit were also sent to Yang Guang.
Deng Wei was worshiped as a righteous doctor, leading the three counties of Hexi to guard it.
"Zhang Xutuo is a general, at present, the people in the six counties of Shandong are in turmoil, and he is the only one who is recruiting troops to chase and suppress, and he should be entrusted with a heavy task," Yang Yue has now taken a fancy to Zhang Xutuo and intends to promote the other party.
Because he thinks that there is really no such talent under Xuangan's hands, and Zhang Xutuo will most likely be the prince's person in the future, if Xuangan can make friends with each other early, it will be a great help in the future.
In Huaiyuan Town, Yang Yue and Xuan Dare lived in a temporary courtyard,
Yang Xuangan nodded: "I gave the food, and he owes me a favor." ”
Yang Yue's eyes widened, and he was dumbfounded: "You dare to steal favors from the prince?" Who told you to give the bread? ”
Yang Xuan was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that, the food is mine after all, right?" The prince has the big head, can't I take a small head? ”
Yang Yue smiled: "You have to make good use of this little head, you have won the battle in the past few days, and Your Majesty is in a good mood, so no one mentions the matter of Shandong, but tomorrow I will bring it up, and ask Zhang Xutuo to be the ambassador of the six counties of Shandong Province to arrest the emperor, and make the envoy to be responsible for counterinsurgency, you can help me push it on the side." ”
Yang Xuangan frowned and said: "At this juncture, Your Majesty is on the rise, let's mention the matter of Shandong, isn't it to block Your Majesty?" ”
"If you don't mention it now, when someone else mentions it, this incense won't be yours," Yang said:
"Shandong's popular upheaval, the momentum is huge, I found in the rear of the discipline that the people are more bewitched by Wang Bo's ballad, many of them have run to Shandong, Shandong is afraid that there is going to be a big chaos, the person who can use it now, that is, Zhang Xutuo, can't give people money and food, and can't give some rights? He is now only a county guard, with a lot of constraints, and only when he is given full authority to quell the rebellion can Shandong be stabilized. ”
Yang Xuan listened very seriously, nodded and said: "The wool is out of the sheep, if there is a big chaos in Shandong, the local family will inevitably suffer, I can fund Zhang Xutuo, wait until the chaos is calmed down, and appropriately annex some land in Shandong, in short, I can't pay for it." ”
"Land, land, you just think about land," Yang Yue said: "When your father was in power, he didn't care about these at all, remember, someone has land, you first stabilize Zhang Xutuo for me, and also, don't let the prince know about the annexation of land, be careful." ”
"It works!" Xuan Dare said: "I'll write to him now, telling him that I will recommend him to pacify the six counties, as for the future, you can send two thousand parts, with two thousand horses, to Shandong to help him, and I will also support him with some money and food later, but not now, send charcoal in the snow, if he wants to help when he is the most difficult." ”
Yang Yue smiled and nodded: "It's finally enlightened." ”
In their opinion, it is better to make the chaos in Shandong bigger, and the more heavy the losses of the local families, the better, so that they can easily reach out and annex those ownerless lands.
Of course, this is secondary, the main thing is to win over Zhang Xutuo, without Zhang Xutuo's help, their hands are not easy to reach into Shandong.
So the most important thing at the moment is to support Zhang Xutuo.
The next day, in the military village on the outskirts of Huaiyuan, Yang Guang held a wartime small court meeting.
This military village is very large, and it has been expanding, the people are doing this, there is no need to consume so manpower, but the emperor lives here, and there are six thousand palace servants, and they can't let it go when they are small.
Yang Guang's mood is very good, the Tuwanxu Department has already crossed the river in front, and the attack on Liaodong City is a matter of the past few days.
If he is wronged for a few days, he will be able to move into Liaodong City.
In the past, Yang Guangnan fought in the north and endured hardships, but now he can't do it, and he is used to being pampered.
The ministers sat in the hall and had breakfast with Yang Guang, and Yang Yue had been looking for an opportunity to mention Shandong's affairs.
The matter of touching the moldy head is unpleasant after all, but Yang Yue knows that he has to touch this moldy head.
But before that, Yang Da helped him push it, and Yang Guang's originally smiling face instantly became gloomy.
The Eastern Turks, under the leadership of the Great Khan Shibi, had entered the Khitan and set up camp in the area of the Western Liao River, which was located more than 150 miles upstream of the Liao River.
People were originally invited by Yang Guang to watch the battle, why was Yang Guang unhappy?
Because the Eastern Turks came with an army of 200,000 troops.
Is this Nima a spectator?
The reason why Yang Da knows this number is because people have told the truth, I have brought 200,000 troops to cheer for the Great Sui Emperor.
The one sent by Shibi is also called Song Shu, because nominally, the Eastern Turks are subordinate to the Great Sui, so they are handed over to the lower provinces.
Yang Guang was silent for a long time, and then sneered: "This son is not like his father, I don't like it." ”
Qimin Khan was cautious about the Great Sui, and he came to the Great Sui Dynasty twice to see Yang Guang, and he was very sincere, but his son was not good.
But Yang Guang was also embarrassed to take the initiative to let the other party come to the court, otherwise once Shibi refused, his face fell to the ground again.
Isn't that what Goguryeo is all about?
Yang Da continued: "The minister asked the Dou Resistance Department to station troops at the northern foot of Yiwulu Mountain to prevent Turks. ”
"There is no need to fortify," Yang Guang said: "I am a million heroes here, he dares to make a mistake?" ”
Su Wei Niu Hong glanced at each other, helpless in his heart.
In fact, it is unrealistic to want to fight the Sui army in the south, because between the Khitan and the three counties of Hexi, separated by Lengcheng Mountain, belongs to the eastern section of the Yanshan Mountain Range, and is now called Nuruer Tiger Mountain.
The Turkic iron cavalry fought south from here, which was asking for hardship.
But Yang Guang is completely undefended, and he is indeed too arrogant, what if people really come down from here? Where are you going?
Pei Ju Niu Hong and others hurriedly advised, they knew that the emperor needed a step, as long as they kept persuading, they could persuade back.
After a while, Yang Guangmian said: "Okay, okay, according to the words of the people, let Dou Kang go north, and fortify at the north end of Yiwulu, but there is a change, and it will be played in time." ”
Now everyone is relieved.
Taking advantage of the emperor's bad mood at the moment, Yang Yue hurriedly said:
"The chaos in Shandong is getting bigger and bigger, there are civil uprisings in the six counties, the minister thinks that he should deploy as soon as possible to stifle this momentum, and now only Qi County is too shou Zhang Xutuo can be a heavy responsibility, and the minister asked him to arrest the ambassador for the six counties of Shandong, and the soldiers and horses of the six counties were measured, and they were ordered to quell the rebellion as soon as possible."
Yang Guang is also weak-hearted here, the matter in Shandong was caused by him, and he also commended Zhang Xutuo some time ago.
"Just do what Qing said, and the Ministry of Internal History will immediately draw up the will."
Lu Chu hurriedly nodded.
Yang Yue didn't expect that things would go so smoothly, because he didn't know that the grain that Guo Yan got when he went to Jiangdu was originally used for disaster relief in Shandong.
He thought that this grain was for the army.
He doesn't know everything, Yang Su was there before, and he can guess it, but unfortunately Yang Su is gone, and his status in the court is far from Yang Su's share.
Su Wei and Pei Ju know it. (End of chapter)
