Chapter 305: The Noise of Peace

"Chendan, kowtow and bow to ......."

"Stop! You save me all those Uriba-verbos, and just pick up the contents and read them!" Zhao Tuo was impatient to listen to the official's words, and directly stopped Liang Wu's script.

"If the emperor wants to hear how this battle is fought, you can start before the war." Liu Kan prompted.

Hearing what Eunuch Liu said, the anxious Liang Wu finally found the direction, swept his eyes, and started from the arrangement of the mouth of the giant river, and did not accept the squad leader Yu Liang at night to lead the team to capture prisoners, and then the enemy army started to talk about it in the early morning, telling it like a story.

The emperor listened carefully, sometimes pacing, sometimes thinking, when he heard the name of the place, he stopped, and ran to the large "Military Map of Shenyang and the Surrounding Areas" hanging on the side of the bookcase to find it, which was exactly the same as that used by Li Dan.

It turned out that Li Dan had always made two copies, and then sent one to Beijing to present to the imperial review.

"Well, Yebi Khan relied on the strength of the crowd and wanted to divide 10,000 troops to see Wulongling, but unfortunately he didn't know that Pan Chang was ready to deal with him!" A smile tugged at the corner of the Emperor's mouth.

When he heard that the East Route Army of the Kerges was flooded, Zhao Tuo laughed: "He is imitating Guan Yunchang and flooding the Seventh Army!"

"Your Majesty, this handwriter thinks it's even more beautiful." Liu Kan bowed down and said, "Guan Shengyan is a besieged enemy, but Li Jianjun is facing a strong enemy.

He first planted a squad in the Fort of the Mighty River, and then used it as a barrier to secretly send General Qin to build a dam, and at the same time firmly attracted the enemy's attention with 10,000 men in front of him, which made the power of the flood to the extreme."

"Yes, flooding is not the main thing, flooding cannot drown all the enemies, the important thing is to rely on this trick to not only suppress the enemy's morale, but also divide the heavy enemy into two parts, and then break each one.

Eh, tell me about the rest of the battle, what was the outcome of this battle?" Even though he had already learned the news of the victory from the victory report of the Liaozhen General Army, Zhao Tuo still wanted to hear some details.

Hearing the plot of 20,000 Kerr charging and each battalion starting a white-knuckle battle, the emperor looked solemn.

In the end, Li Dan judged that the time had come and ordered a signal to the upstream, and the flood hit and flooded the Kercos and the pontoon bridge, and the emperor happily slapped his thigh hard:

"Hey, rejoice! Liu Daban, asked them to bring wine and food, and asked for Yu Qingliu, which was produced by Yu Gan. I'm so happy, I'm going to use this as a backdrop!"

Blocked by the surging flood, he escaped with his life under the protection of his personal guards, but the great shamans and the "calm" master who were praying for the warriors by the river did not have time to escape, and they were swept away by the flood and disappeared.

Before the lost and depressed chief manager could recover his senses, the sound of galloping horses' hooves sounded upstream, and the more than 8,000 cavalry led by Tong and Qin Er rushed the opponents piled up on the river bank in a mess.

Dili lost and led part of the remnants of the army to flee westward and swam across the Liuhe River. Unexpectedly, before they could gain a firm foothold on the other side, Xiao Yungui and Lai Wubao commanded the Liaozhen regiment to train a group and suddenly killed.

Caught off guard and captured in the chaos. Most of the enemy forces left on the south bank were captured after they broke up, and the few who tried to resist relentlessly laid down their arms after learning that they had lost their lives. Of course, there are many die-hard people who were killed by the firecrackers.

In the final count, 32,000 officers and soldiers were captured, more than 10,000 were killed, and thousands of others were estimated to have been swept away by the flood, and about 2,000 escaped.

In addition, Pan Chang on Wulongling suddenly came out of the mountain and attacked the enemy below the mountain by surprise, forcing the 10,000 people to retreat in embarrassment, and was ambushed by Luo Guangen in Montenegro, so he was defeated.

Pan Chang led the whole army to the city of Scholbu, and the team sent to besiege the city was originally second-rate, and was frightened by the rout. Scholb City has finally been released after a month of siege!

Zhao Tuo was silent for a moment when he heard this, and asked softly, "What about the casualties reported by Li Qing?" He had already gotten a vague figure from Liaozhen, "only a few thousand casualties," but he hoped that Li Dan would be more specific.

Liang Wu looked at Eunuch Liu, saw him nodded encouragingly, and continued to read:

"In this battle, 29,000 troops participated in the battle on the south bank, 1,700 were killed, and nearly 10,000 were lightly and seriously wounded.

Hearing this, the two generals Tong and Qin on the north shore suffered nearly 1,000 casualties each."

"Alas! Killing the enemy will inevitably cause you to lose yourself!" Zhao Tuo sighed.

"Uh, Your Majesty?"

"Huh? What's the matter?" Zhao Tuo looked at Liang Wu.

"Li Jianjun made several suggestions to motivate the whole army."

"Oh?" The Emperor was interested: "Tell me about it!"

"He said: Suggestion one, the city of Scholbu asks His Majesty to give it a name, and the minister suggests that it be named 'Zhangwu.'"

The Emperor looked up and thought, "It's a good name, that's all. I will write an inscription tomorrow and ask him to engrave it on the city gate! What about the back?"

"Suggestion 2, all the generals on the south bank are fighting bravely, and Liao Changyong, the commander of Liaozhen, is a commendable reward for his wounded wounds. This person is self-motivated, steady and tenacious, Your Majesty can appropriately approve, and the future may be a general!"

"Okay, I got it."

"Recommendation 3: After the training of the troops of Shandong, Hai and Gai, each battalion has more than 1,500 to 1,800 men, and the combat strength has been significantly improved, and with the same number of firearms, it can compete with twice the enemy.

His Majesty is requested to agree to organize the formation of a new army with squads, platoons, companies, battalions, and regiments. Due to the needs of the task, those who combine several battalions are called brigades, those who combine several regiments are divisions, and those who combine divisions and brigades are called armies.

In this way, it is possible to effectively avoid the long-term control of the army by senior officers, and the commanders of each regiment and above are appointed from the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, the deployment of each battalion and regiment is subject to the orders of the commanders of each province, and the transfer of divisions and armies is subject to the orders of the military headquarters.

It not only takes into account the size of the system, but also realizes the separation of soldiers and generals from the regimental command; The central government can have the right to control, while the local government can not lose the ability to flexibly arrange when things happen.

If Your Majesty thinks that you can give it a try, please start from Liao Town, and all battalions and guards will be reformed according to the new military system, and the first phase will be the transformation of the left and right guards, and then it will be promoted year by year until all are renewed."

"This Li Dan, I acquiesced to him to transform the Shandong army and return and cover the two guards, and he actually won Longwangshu." Zhao Tuo smiled: "This matter is not something I can decide alone, let's discuss it again."

Without the advice of the Imperial Court, especially the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, how could I speak for myself? It's better to discuss it. Anything else?"

"Well, Li Jianjun said that he planned to let these captives go to Shenyang to build roads, and also said that the right wing of the right wing Pingzhang Harita led his troops to surrender.

This man is quite sensible, and he is one of the few generals among the Kerr who is familiar with the etiquette and allusions of the Central Plains, and he is not only proficient in Chinese, but also able to compose poems.

Write beautiful cursive handwriting. He proposed to build a new city in an open area on the north bank of the Liao River for Harita and some of his men to live in, and to move 1,500 households from the Central Plains to settle in the city, which Master Li said could be called 'Xinmin County.'"

"Hah! This guy!" Zhao Tuo laughed: "It turns out that he not only fights the idea of immigration, but also wants to simply eat the people who will be Khan!

You see, if you do this, the Khan will definitely return to the steppe, and if he stays here, his people will be tempted to Li Dan, how can he be this Great Khan?"

"Oh, I see!" Liu Kan suddenly realized: "The minister was still thinking just now, isn't Lord Li afraid of luring the wolf into the house, it turns out that he is trying to lure the people of Yebi Khan to centrifuge?

The emperor saw it at a glance, and a fool like a minister was really beyond his reach!" He put a high hat on the emperor, thinking to himself that it was good that the words that came to his lips just now did not come out!

"Li Qing said a long time ago that if you love the world and treat all the people as sons, such a son of heaven is competent. I deeply believe that an emperor like Tang Taizong in the history book can have such achievements, because he is broad-minded.

What happened to the Kaers? As long as he is willing to accept Chinese etiquette and the teachings of the saints, then he can be my Chinese person!

The territory of Liao is so vast that even if the 30,000 captives are willing to stay, there are not many people in the cities who are divided into them. It can also be absorbed into the border armies of Shaanxi, Gansu, and Qingdao.

It's not that hard. The key is as Li Qing said before leaving, if the enemy is less, I will increase it!"

Zhao Tuo sneered: "Compared with me? And what shall he compare with Khan? Is it vast, populous or rich in resources?

If he dares to go south, I will dare to let his people run away, to see if he is still honest? beam

Turnip, quasi-play! I will write another inscription and order the household department to make preparations for Xinmin County!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Tuo suddenly remembered, "Didn't Li Qing send a doctor to treat Shi Qing? Did you write about him?"

"Your Majesty, the letter says that Shi Shuai has awakened now, but he is still weak. Master Li has transferred Master Shi to Liaoyang to recuperate."

"Alas, this Shi Hao really almost missed my big event!" Zhao Tuo frowned:

"Since Pan Chang took over and played well, let him continue to do it, and he doesn't have to change it. After Shi Hao's body recovered, he asked the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to send him to Ganqing, and the Governor would take care of the military affairs of Fan."

Liu Kan and Liang Wu looked at each other, thinking that this Shi Hao could be regarded as delaying himself, and all the good saints were ruined by an illness! Still, they bowed: "Yes!"

The good news of the great victory in the Battle of Liaohe spread, and the entire Shang Kyoto was boiling. Unexpectedly, only one day later, another good news came, the two allied armies of Ula and Huifa on the Western Front and the 4,000 cavalry led by General Deng surrounded Helin City after four consecutive victories.

Although it is called a city, it is actually an unfinished city, and it is a large city, but it was not completed until the collapse of the previous dynasty, and only two of the six city gates were completed, and the rest can only be called gaps.

Because it was never expected to be attacked, the ruler did not continue to complete it or make more repairs, and it was devastated by the wind and sand for decades, and quickly became unable to hold out under two attacks by the coalition forces.

General Deng's Wing Loong Wei and Fang Si quickly contacted several Han guards in the city.

So the next day, as soon as the sun emerged from the ground, the Han army defending it mutinied, arrested Daluhua Chiyin Dynasty, and forced him to sign the surrender document.

Subsequently, except for some of the Kerco defenders who did not want to participate, they fled, and the 12,000 Han troops surrendered anyway. At this time, there were more than 7,000 Ergu people in the city, and more than 26,000 Han people.

General Deng took all the people away, burned all the houses, and made Helin an empty city.

The army led the population south and returned, and small tribes and Han people continued to join in on the way, and by the time General Deng issued the letter of victory, they had already crossed the Hanhai Sea and brought back a population of nearly 50,000!

Listening to the congratulations and compliments of the ministers, Zhao Tuo's eyes were shining. He sat high on the throne, holding in his arms the eldest son of the emperor who was watching the ministers with wide eyes and curiosity, and his heart was full of confidence and pride.

It turns out that being an emperor should be like this, right? He later said to the empress, "I know today the majesty of the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty!"

But after Asaga, there was still a little episode. Liang Du, the right attendant of the Ministry of Works, said that since the battle has been won, it is time to put the swords and guns into the warehouse, put the horses in Nanshan, and ask the emperor to order the army to return to their respective defense areas, and then call Li Dan back!

After expressing his attitude, to the emperor's surprise, many people reconsidered, and even took the trouble to discuss what rewards and seals should be given to Li Dan and Pan Chang, who rescued him, completely ignoring the emperor's dignity and feelings.

It was Eunuch Liu who coughed heavily and interrupted their enthusiastic improvisation, otherwise Zhao Tuo was really afraid that he would not be able to help but give an order to beat up this group of stupid nerds.

As a result, this was not the end, and Lord Su, the attendant of the Ministry of Rites, went out to speak, thinking that now that the war had been won, he should take the opportunity to negotiate peace, let those Kels honestly return to their own territory, and let the army return to their own station.

The smile on the emperor's face froze when he heard this, but he did not immediately express his position, but quietly watched the courtiers below to see how they performed.

As expected, the position of everyone soon became clear. The Shaozhuang faction led by Yangzhong resolutely demanded to fight and beat the ambition of Yebi Khan to the point that he no longer dared to raise his head.

And Xie Minhong's Jiangnan faction advocated immediate peace, and could not let the barbaric land of Liaodong drag down the imperial court.

Under the leadership of Zheng Shou, the Jinghu faction ridiculed each other, saying that so many war treasury bonds had been issued, and now they withdrew their troops just after a small victory, causing panic in the market, what should we do if the national bonds plummeted? After that, where will anyone dare to buy government bonds?

Moreover, the promised businessmen have not yet been fulfilled, and taking the initiative to negotiate peace at this time will not only lose the face of the court, but also lose credibility, and it will be difficult to get the businessmen to sponsor in the future!

However, the Jinghu faction agreed to transfer Li Dan back, on the grounds that he was young after all, and he was too bold to do things, and he was afraid that he would not be able to lose his tail after a long time.

Zhao Tuo never imagined that a victory would turn into a discussion on the finishing of the war, and he would be told to retract his wings before his ambitions could be launched. The emperor coldly told everyone:

"Please go back and think carefully and write a note." Then he said that he would retreat and walk away. Only then did everyone notice that the emperor was unhappy.

But Zheng Shou thought that it was just a child who was playing well, and he could ignore it at all after being picked up by his parents.

The attitudes of Han Wei and Zheng Shou aroused Sun Liao's dissatisfaction, and after he retired from the dynasty, he directly accused the two of bullying the monarch on the jade platform and warned them not to go too far.

Han Wei was furious, and was tightly dragged by the old Zheng Shou to have no successful attack, and Sun Liao was also dragged away by Yang Zhong and others who rushed to hear the sound. But all this fell into the eyes of the eunuchs, and soon reached Liu Kan's ears.

"Tickets, thank you!"
