Chapter 104: The Determination of Entering Shu

The inner city is equipped with ponds, small bridges, rockeries, pavilions, and the scenery is extremely beautiful. \\.//The place where it passes is built with carved basalt, which is simple and heavy. Luan Yu went straight in, and only came down in front of a temple gate.

A shout: "The king has arrived!"

Yang Xuanning has been in charge of Jiangdu for several months, and after renovation, this place has taken on a new look.

"The king is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old. "Get inside, and go up to the throne, and the ministers will see you.

Yang Xuanning calmly lowered his voice: "Zhu Qing is flat." ”

A large number of janissaries, standing upright with their swords, without blinking their eyes, all very young, this batch of forbidden troops, is from the cultivation of teenagers under the age of fifteen, after several years, can finally be on the stage, although at this time regardless of experience and martial arts are still shallow, but in a few years, it will naturally be solid.

There weren't many false words, Yang Xuanning said lightly: "Xu Jing Erzhou has been ordered, the military department must measure the merits, make a charter, and reward meritorious." ”

"Your Majesty, this great victory, laid the foundation of the south of the dynasty, but the so-called solid, should be rewarded from the best, Luo Shixin is the main commander, promoted to the second rank of the auxiliary general, the ministers of the court and the central government are in the middle of the coordination of meritorious, should also be added, each shade is an official, and the other soldiers are recorded in the file one by one, and the merits are accumulated and given promotions and rewards. Liu Ziyi, the secretary of the military department, stepped forward and said: "Chi Jingde, the captain of the north, broke the second county, and can be promoted to the general of the fourth grade, and Du Fuwei broke the Li Zitong army, and he will not see the king in the future, and he can also be given the general of the fourth grade." ”

Yang Xuanning nodded and said, "What about the title?"

This question can only be answered by Prime Minister Li Bo, who stepped forward and said: "Luo Shixin has made great contributions to the establishment, and the position can be sealed as a marquis, and 8,000 acres of land will be given according to the system." In terms of grade, the second grade has 800 acres of land, totaling 8,800 acres. The other generals are listed first. Reward for the future. ”

Yang Xuanning said with a smile: "The widow has already thought about it, Luo Shixin will seal the Marquis of Pingjing, announce that he will come to see the widow, temporarily go to the military, and receive the title and land first." He also worked hard and just rested, and the Song family was meritorious, and the widow was also rewarded. ”

"Your Majesty. All the ministers said, indeed, Luo Shixin's 60,000 troops are going to be rectified.

"The compensation for the fallen and the soldiers, this not only requires the military department to report the list, but also the household department and the ministry of officials. To make arrangements for this, the meaning of the widow is very clear, and ordinary soldiers build tombs on the spot. The name is engraved on it, and the spirit tablet is sent to the hometown. Sacrifice to the side temple of the earth temple. There are high-grade soldiers, and the corpses are sent back to the township. This time, the compensation for the fallen soldiers should be generous and preferential, and the children of the fallen soldiers can be compensated according to the law. ”

The ministers of the cabinet hurriedly said: "The ministers have the order." ”

After a pause, Li Baiyao, the head of the household, said again: "Your Majesty, just like this, the financial cost is very large, although the king has the treasure of Yang Gong and the wealth of the newly acquired Shengshangjiang Capital, but the army is moved, and the expenditure is very large, please pay attention to the king." ”

Yang Xuanning listened, was silent, and then turned to Song Shi and asked, "Zhennangong, how is the situation in the Haijiang trading area?"

Song Shidao stepped forward and said: "Since the king attributed the city and shipping department to our Ministry of Commerce, and reformulated the tax rate and collection regulations, as well as the growth of the navy, the income of our customs and direct maritime trade has risen sharply, until now, it has reached 600,000 taels of silver, and it is expected that by the end of the year, there will be 800,000 taels. ”

Yang Xuanning groaned again, this is not bad, but compared to the Song Dynasty three hundred years later, the annual income of the city alone has 2.5 million taels, which is still a lot worse, but at this time, there is no way, only to take it slowly, and immediately said: "This is very good, think more about whether there is food or not, and use soldiers or still need food." ”

Li Bo thought for a while and smiled: "Your Majesty, there is a lot of inflow of disaster victims this year, and there is a shortage of food, so you can't use troops on a large scale, but the newly acquired land needs to be pacified by sending capable people quickly!"

Yang Xuanning nodded: "Exactly, this is an important matter, and the cabinet must handle it." ”

He said to Fang Xuanling again: "If the prime minister wants to deal with important matters, you have to help, the officials must quickly register and demote officials, and quickly select a group of county officials, and then the cabinet will select a person to be appointed as the governor, inspect the situation of military and civilian officials, and have the right to dispose of it cheaply on the spot!"

Fang Xuanling responded: "Yes, I don't know what the deadline is?"

In the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Sui Dynasty, there were officials sent to various places to be governors at the beginning, which were temporary dispatches, so they were not unfamiliar with the word governor, but this was not an official position and had a time limit. 1^6^k^small^say^net

"One year is enough, and after a year, presumably the counties and counties are almost operating normally, and they can come back to report on their work. ”

Yang Xuanning thought for a while, and then said: "Since we want to move less this year, then we won't move, but we can't waste time, we must take precautions for most of this half a year." ”

"With regard to the military, all counties should set up the Zhechong Prefecture and appoint the commander of the Zhichong Prefecture, and the counties should enrich the soldiers of the county lieutenants, and the towns should rectify the military, enrich the soldiers, and strengthen training. Yang Xuanning said: "And the government soldiers and the box soldiers, they must be selected, and they must not be careless, the widow must send envoys to check more, and as for the household registration and taxation, they must also be clear one by one, I don't know how many soldiers can be recruited?"

At this time, he still established the government soldiers according to the Juntian system, counted the people, and divided them into nine classes according to wealth, of which one Ding was selected for every third Ding above the sixth class as the government soldiers, and the officials and nobles were not subject to this system, and they were exempt from rent and mediocrity, but they had to bring their own weapons.

Those who served in the army began to serve at the age of 20 and were exempted from military service at the age of 40, and each prefecture appointed a thousand people, and the highest commander was the commander of the capital.

In wartime, the generals led the government soldiers to the war, and at the end of the war, the soldiers returned to their governments, and the generals were relieved of military power. Such measures prevent the armed forces from becoming the private property of generals and reduce the possibility of military personnel owning and specializing in military areas or separating territories.

"Your Majesty, if you choose one for every three dings above the sixth rank as a government soldier, our seventy-two counties and 900,000 households can get 600,000 government soldiers. Liu Ziyi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, had already calculated and stepped forward to speak.

As soon as these words came out, everyone took a breath, and if the 600,000 army was trained into a regular army, the south would indeed have the ability to sweep the world.

"Very good, so it is done. The Ministry of Commerce can buy food, and even go out to plunder, and this year it is necessary to ensure that the food for training is sufficient. Yang Xuanning said. He knew that the military system had collapsed with the annexation of land. Therefore, the military system must be reformed in the future, but at this time, it is possible to reduce expenditures and obtain a large number of troops, which is also a helpless thing: "Let's talk about the situation. Where is Xue Renguo now?"

"Your Majesty, before Xue Ju died, Li Shimin had pursued, but was repulsed, the army was not chaotic, retreated to the halfway, Xue Juchuan was located in Xue Renguo, and after his death, Xue Renguo continued to return to the division according to his father's policy. Shi Zhixuan said in a deep voice: "Li Shimin is in hot pursuit. And it is said that as soon as Xue Ju died, there was chaos in all counties of Longxi. If Li Shimin continues to chase, Xue Renguo may not be able to spare time to control Longxi. Collapse is not far off. ”

"What about the Holy One?"

"The Holy One has promised to exchange horses for food. It seems that after the original army of 200,000. Another 100,000 troops were recruited in various counties and stationed in Luoyang for unified training. Shi Zhixuan, as the squire of the military department, said analytically: "At this time, Guanzhong is turbulent, and the total number of Li Lords is only 200,000 troops. ”

Wei Zheng said with a hint of worry: "I am Li Valve, I must first fight to defend the pass, delay time, and Li Shimin took the opportunity to attack Xue Renguo, with the situation of the counties in Longxi, maybe Xue Renguo can be broken, so that there is no worries, in order to defend the pass, and develop and grow, if Xue Renguo is given a chance to breathe, Longxi is difficult to obtain easily, Li Valve will be attacked by the enemy in both sides and trapped in Guanzhong." ”

Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "It depends on which of the two sides solves it first, but even if Li Shimin breaks Xue Renguo before Tongguan is broken, and returns to the master to defend the pass, he will definitely be greatly injured." ”

stepped forward again, and said to Yang Xuanning: "Wang, now in form, the king does not have to be attached to Bashu, Bashu goes up the river, easy to defend and difficult to attack, thousands of miles of transportation, it is really worth the loss, the king only needs to send a division up, can occupy the important mouth, the current situation, the king will wait until next year, take advantage of the vitality of the two families, and win Luoyang in a battle, and the world will be decided." ”

Yang Xuanning stood up and said, "Great goodness, so decided." ”

After a pause, he said: "I'll wait for now, just wait and see, see how the inside and outside of the customs evolve." ”

After discussing everything, he said to the guards on duty: "Summoning Li Jing, today in Qionghua Building, the widow and his moon banquet." ”

Li Jing naturally knew this restaurant, and when the lights were on the street, he stepped forward, this building was in a place where the group feasted and lived, quiet and pleasant, the trees were swaying, and the scenery was extremely beautiful, and it was only available to a few extremely noble people.

He reached out and touched the hilt of the sword, and a strange sensation flowed from the cold blade into his hand, and then into his heart, he sighed, untied the long knife, gave it to the guard, and entered himself.

When he went upstairs, he was still thinking about one thing, that is, the overall situation is evolving now.

After arriving here, everything happened too fast and too fast, and one by one, he felt breathless, and he had no time to really think about his situation and position.

Xu Jing took a look, Xiangyang surrendered, half of the country has become unified, and it fell into the hands of Yang Tang.

And Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty occupied Luoyang, and the Wagang army went south to submit, all of which brought about fundamental changes in the world, and Guanzhong was no longer a happy land, and even became the target of everyone.

I remember that when I met the bearded guest, the bearded guest once praised him and said: "Looking at Li Lang's shape and instrument, the true husband will be listed as a prince in the future." ”

He also said: "The one who looks at the qi says that Taiyuan has a strange spirit, so that I will visit it." ”

into Taiyuan. See you again. He said to Liu Wenjing: "Those who have good looks think of Lang Jun, please welcome him." ”

Liu Wenjing is a strange person, once he hears a kind appearance, he will welcome him.

And Li Shimin came out with a brown fur, and the bearded guest sat silently at the end, saw his heart die, drank a few cups, beckoned himself and said: "This person is really the Son of Heaven!"

The words are especially in the ear, but the world has changed greatly, although Taiyuan raised troops, captured Chang'an, but there is no imaginary Guanzhong solid, Xue Ju's art of war is far beyond imagination, although he tried his best to kill, but the four holy monks of Hu Sect folded one of them, and the monks and soldiers who had accumulated a hundred years were almost exhausted, and it was difficult to support Li Valve.

And Emperor Yang of Sui returned to attack the fortifications, which made matters worse, and it was difficult for Li Valve to have the potential of the Son of Heaven.

On the same day, when he heard that Yang Xuanning had won Jiangdu, the bearded guest was surprised and said: "I originally saw him, but he was just a white snake, and he was a marquis and a general." But seeing this, it is the momentum of Jackie Chan, why do you think it is. We will go and see it. ”

That's why I came, as a result. A few days ago, when the bearded guest went north again, he whispered again: "I haven't seen you for two years, Bai Jiao Jackie Chan, and now the number of qi in the world has changed." I don't know who is the real fate, and the virtuous brother can choose for himself. ”

These days, he is just tossing and turning half-drunk and half-awake, not knowing how to choose.

He is the art of war and everyone in the world, of course he knows that the current situation is that Yang Xuanning is more like Jackie Chan, while Li Valve is a dragon trapped in the shallows. Struggling to win the momentum of the flying dragon, perhaps, this is the battle of the world. There should be some confusion!

Although it is a lot to think about in this way, it is actually a matter of a moment. Come to the door. He gathered his mind and said in a deep voice: "Minister Li Jing." Meet the King. ”

"Come in and see with me. Yang Xuanning was standing, facing a table in front of the window of the river below, his eyes fixed on the surface of the river full of river water, and Li Jing could see that many fishing boats below had already docked and were rippling with the microwave.

"Li Qing doesn't have to be polite, the fresh fish here is particularly good, Li Qing has been here for February, I don't know if you are still used to it?"

"The king gave him a homestead and a field, and the minister was flattered. ”

Yang Xuanning smiled dumbly, looked down, and saw that by the river, in addition to fishing boats, there were more than ten boats moored, all of them gorgeous.

A bright moon shines on the entire river, and a cool breeze blows slowly from the lake, bringing coolness.

Before I knew it, it was already September.

Yang Xuanning retracted his gaze, smiled slightly, and said: "Whenever the widow sees the ship below, the widow has some satisfaction, after all, there is no war, and the people can live in peace." After speaking, he said: "At the banquet, today the widow and the Qing will drink to the moon together." ”

Suddenly, several servants in green clothes stepped forward and put down the wine and dishes one by one, and Li Jing saw that it was the famous "Fish Eight" in this building, Jingjiang spring wine, and several famous dishes.

Under the moonlight, the monarchs and ministers sat down, saluted first, and drank each.

At the window, you can see a small piece of lake water, and as for the sound of the tide rising and falling, it is faintly audible, and the moonlight shines from the window, and the face of the young king on the opposite side is shining, exuding a kind of light.

Yang Xuanning said with a smile: "The ancients cooked wine and talked about heroes, tonight the Yangtze River is full of moon, thousands of years of drunkenness, we can follow the example of the ancient sages, talk about the heroes of the world, and it is also a happy thing, Li Qing, what do you think of the current situation?"

Li Jing said: "As long as the king gets Bashu again, the world will be decided." ”

"Then does Li Qing have anything to think of Bashu?"

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, the road to Bashu has been known to be difficult to travel, because it is surrounded by mountains, heavy mountains, high mountains and deep valleys. In the meantime, the great river is like a belt, the river is connected, it is not only magnificent, but also the danger and obstacles, since the defeat of the Han Dynasty, the world continues to appear in the north-south confrontation situation, the reason for this is because of the Yangtze River natural danger. If Bashu returns to the north, there will be no danger of the Yangtze River to defend, as long as there are enough ships and warships, the northern army will go down the river to the west, it is difficult to resist, so if you want the south to be healthy, you must first get Bashu. Li Jing said.

Yang Xuanning was noncommittal, staring at the moonlight, and for a long time, he said slowly: "In this case, the widow will give you 15,000 soldiers, and then 5,000 sailors, and appoint you as the garrison of Yiling, you can take the opportunity to go north, Song Valve will support you, you can meet the Heavenly Sword Song Que, he will be with you this time." ”

Before Li Jing could say anything, he smiled again and said: "The widow once listened to Shi Qingxuan playing the flute, she really forgot the world, she is one of the widow's four concubines, but the widow can't enter Shu to see her at this time, it's a pity, the Qing family will get Bashu for the widow, so, the widow will see her in person." ”

Li Jing didn't know what to say at this moment.

"There are no tombs in the mountains, the rivers are exhausted, the thunder and earthquakes in winter, the rain and snow in summer, the heaven and the earth are combined, and you have to be with the king. The widow has heard someone sing like this, and it really moves the widow, so you can go" Yes, the minister retired. Although he had only eaten half of it, the king asked him to retreat, so he naturally had to retreat.

Waiting for Li Jing to leave, Yang Xuanning showed a sneer.

Li Jing, the word pharmacist, was born in the family of the official eunuch and the nephew of the Sui general Han Baohu. His grandfather, Li Chongyi, served as the assassin of Yinzhou and was named the Duke of Yongkang, and his father Li Quanshi Sui was the official of Zhao County.

Li Jing looks burly, because of the influence of the family, he has had a "literary and military talent" since he was a child, and he is quite enterprising. ”

When Li Tang attacked Wang Shichong's campaign, the Later Liang Xiao Milling regime sent a boat division up the river in an attempt to capture Bashu, and Li Yuan transferred Li Jing'an to Xiao Mill.

Li Jing was ordered to lead several cavalry to take up his post, and Ran Zhao, the leader of the Kaizhou barbarians, rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, and Li Jing led 800 soldiers to attack his camp and break the barbarians. Later, he set up an ambush in a dangerous place, killed Zhao Ze in a battle, and captured more than 5,000 people.

In the fourth year of Wude, in view of the situation between the enemy and us, Li Jing presented ten strategies to defeat Xiao Miao, Li Jing organized manpower and material resources to build boats and ships, organized soldiers to practice water warfare, and prepared to go down to Jiangling.

Li Jing defeated the Xiao army, killing and drowning nearly 10,000 people, and obtaining more than 400 ships. After capturing Yiling, Li Jing did not stop, led 5,000 light cavalry as the vanguard, and went straight to Jiangling, the capital of Houliang, so that Xiao Mo surrendered. Li Jing Sasuke Li Xiaogong came out of the army, and it took only two months to eliminate the Houliang, the largest separatist force in the south of the Yangtze River, and he made outstanding achievements.

Since Li Jing has this talent, it is more than enough to give him 15,000 soldiers, 5,000 sailors, and with the cooperation of the Song valve, there is no unified force in the strategy, and it is more than enough to fall apart and fall apart, it depends on whether he can be attentive.

If he hesitates and makes no progress after a year, then kill him, this person will have different intentions and will not be able to stay.

No matter what his previous identity was, he has now given him a chance, and he is willing to take these 20,000 people, and gamble at this time that he is going to be on which side, without waiting for changes in the future.

After all, at this time, no matter how he is, he can't turn the sky, the right time and place and people limit him.
