Fifteen divisions of troops and two roads 6

Due to the limited manpower and material resources of Jingjiang Prefecture, most of the materials to deal with the aftermath need to be mobilized from Guangdong Road. Although Yue Lin, the transshipment envoy from Guangdong, was basically very cooperative in these matters, after all, it was a two-way envoy, and many of the procedures were very complicated, and it was impossible to be as simple as deploying each other within the road.

Xin Qiji, who stayed in Jingjiang Mansion, was very busy, and Zhao Qianru saw this and sent Chen Liang back to Jingjiang Mansion to help Xin Qiji. And planned to wait for Yang Yan to come back, and after explaining to Yang Yan, he would also go back to Jingjiang Mansion to help deal with these good return matters. Although Yang Yan is the envoy of Guangxi, his main ability is military, and he never manages these things, and he can't manage them well. It's better to throw all your hands and let others worry about it, so that he can command the army to fight wholeheartedly.

After Yang Yan and Zhao Qianru met, they explained all the arrangements in Guangzhou to Zhao Qianru, and finally talked about Cheng Yuanzhou's bribery to him, as well as the two sisters Yin Ziyanhong.

Zhao Qianru stared at Yang Yan with a smile after hearing this, and said, "It seems that this trip to Guangzhou is not in vain, and the harvest is not small." ”

Yang Yan was a little weak-hearted, and said: "I have no choice, seeing that the two of them are so pitiful, I have to leave them behind." I didn't touch a finger of them, Xiao Cao can testify to this, I live with Xiao Cao in Guangzhou, I don't believe you can ask when he comes back. ”

Zhao Qianru said with a smile: "Who doesn't know that Cao Xun is out of the same nostril as you, of course he will cover for you, and besides, he didn't follow him all the way back from Guangzhou, who knows what you did?" ”

Yang Yan only rolled his eyes while lying on the chair, and said with a wry smile: "It's over now, I can't wash it even if I jump into the Yellow River." ”

Zhao Qianru couldn't help laughing, slapped him, and said, "Okay, okay, where are the two of them now?" Did you bring them here?"

Yang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Just wait outside?" ”

Zhao Qianru nodded and said, "Call them in, I'll see you." ”

Yang Yan hurriedly got up and went out and brought the two sisters in. As soon as the two sisters saw Zhao Qianru, they immediately knelt on the ground, because the two sisters knew that if they could stay, Yang Yan said that it didn't necessarily matter, and the princess had to nod and agree, so they were very nervous, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads at this time, and said in a trembling voice: "The people see the princess." ”

In fact, after listening to Yang Yan talk about the experience of the two sisters, Zhao Qianru was also very sympathetic to them, and more than half of them were angry just now, just wanting to tease Yang Yan. Zhao Qianru was not a cautious woman in the first place, since she tolerated tassels and Yan Rui, she didn't care too much about one or two more. Seeing that the two of them were afraid of becoming like this, he couldn't help but feel pity, got up and walked to the two of them, pulled them up one by one, and said, "There is no need to be so polite, get up." ”

After the two sisters stood up, they saw Zhao Qianru's sample book clearly, and saw that she was only about twenty years old, with elegant charm and picturesque eyebrows. It's like a fairy concubine book. The two sisters were originally quite conceited about their appearance, but now compared with Zhao Qianru, they also felt ashamed of themselves, and put their heads down.

Zhao Qianru said: "Don't be afraid, you two sisters, stay here first." ”

When the two sisters heard this, they knew that the princess had left them, and they were very happy in their hearts, and said, "Thank you, princess." ”

Zhao Qianru said: "Okay, you two just came, I asked someone to take you to rest, and then arrange for you to do things." Then he asked Youping to take the two of them down to rest and change their clothes.

After the two sisters went down, Zhao Qianru said, "How do you plan to settle them?" ”

Yang Yan said: "Now that they are still fighting, let them follow you first, and when there are suitable candidates in the future, they will find a good home." ”

Zhao Qianru smiled slightly: "Are you telling the truth?" Aren't you tempted by both of them? ”

Yang Yan said softly: "If you say that you are not tempted, it is a lie, but now that I have you, Tassel, and Miss Yan Rui, I think it is enough, and I really don't want to have any other female books." ”

Zhao Qianru's heart warmed, and she was about to speak, when Shi Luanying said outside the door: "Princess, handsome, there is a holy decree here." ”

It turned out that Zhao Yan agreed with Yang Yan's proposal to release all the Manichaean captives, so he deliberately issued a holy decree to appear solemn.

After Yang Yan received the holy decree, he immediately gathered all the captives together and said: "You are all good people in Guangnan, unfortunately deceived by Manichaeism, lost your body as thieves, and rebelled against the imperial court. But the Holy Book of Heaven, who governs the country with benevolence and righteousness, cannot bear to punish you, so I order me to pardon your crimes at once, release them all, and go back to reunite with your parents, wives and brothers, and hope that you will all be peaceful and good people from now on, and you will not regenerate dissent. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately caused a commotion among the captives, because they had been imprisoned for more than ten days, and they were also thinking about how the Song army would treat them every day. Naturally, there will be a lot of discussion. There are many people who are happy. However, there are also some people who have seen the world who are secretly guessing, will what Yang Yan said be true? Is it to stabilize yourself first, and then make plans?

However, Yang Yanzhi didn't just talk about himself, but immediately ordered all the prisoners to be untied and really released. Even Zhao Cao, Lai Wenzheng, Chen Dong, Li Jin, Shan Huaigong, Wen Fu and other Manichaean leaders were all released.

The Manichaean captives were stunned, and they all stood still, motionless. After a while, Zhao Cao said, "Do you really want to let us go?" Won't regret it? ”

Yang Yan smiled slightly and said, "Of course it's true, I said that if I let you go, I will definitely let you go, and I will never change it, and I will never regret it." What's more, this is also a holy decree from the imperial court, and I can't disobey it. I don't care if you continue to be my enemy, and since I can catch you once, I can catch you a second time. ”

Then Yang Yan said loudly: "You all listen well, those who are willing to go home can leave here immediately and go home to reunite with their relatives, if there are those who are willing to stay, I am also welcome, those who are willing to join the army can stay in the army, and those who are willing to go home and continue to be ordinary people, we can also arrange a place to live, and the land can let you live and work in peace and contentment." If you are willing to go back to Manichaeism, I will never stop you, but I hope I will not see you on the battlefield next time. ”

Zhao Cao nodded and said loudly: "Those who are willing to go with us should leave immediately." ”

More than 20,000 captives, and in the end, more than 10,000 people were willing to go back with Zhao Cao and them, most of these people were old believers in Manichaeism, and most of their families were also in Hainan, so they had to go back with Zhao Cao. Of the nearly 10,000 people who remained, more than half were willing to join the army. Recruiting rebels into the army is also the practice of the Great Song Dynasty, and there is nothing wrong with Yang Yan doing this. However, it is not possible to recruit everyone into the army, and it is better to strictly follow the standards of recruitment. The others gave them houses, fields, and farming.

After the matter of the captives was dealt with, Yang Yan immediately found Gao Zhen, Ling Xiang, and Huang Mingxia to discuss the matter of entering Yongzhou.

Gao Zhen has not been idle in the past few days, seriously thinking about how to enter Yongzhou, and when he saw Yang Yan asking, he immediately spread out the map and said: "Although the seat of governance in Yongzhou is Yongzhou City, the most important place in the entire Yongzhou is still Hengshan. Therefore, I would like to first go west along the Toni River and directly attack Hengshan through Enseongju. After capturing Hengshan, leave a part of the men and horses to hold Hengshan, and then wave the army to the north, capture Youjiang Road, Ziqi and Temo Road, first, there is basically no danger to defend in the north of Hengshan, second, it is adjacent to Yizhou, and it is convenient to replenish grain and grass, and thirdly, it is also a place where the servants are the majority, with the help of Brother Ling, they should be able to recapture these places quickly. ”

Ling Xiang also said: "As soon as Brother Yang left, we sent many younger brothers back to secretly contact and organize the local Gu people, as long as the army arrived, they would act as an internal response and cooperate with the imperial army. ”

Gao Zhen continued: "After capturing Youjiang Road, after Ziqi and Temo Road, we will return to the south and capture Zuojiang Road and Yongzhou City. Big brother, what do you think of this order? ”

Yang Yan nodded and said, "Yes, it's basically okay." "It seems that Gao Zhen is more careful than Cao Xun. Then he said to Ling Xiang: "Brother Ling, you step on the white army and go with Xiao Gao to capture Yongzhou this time, I said that I would help you recapture Yongzhou, and now you can finally cash it out." ”

Ling Xiang and Huang Mingxia were naturally very happy, and they had been waiting for this day to come. Yang Yan said again: "Now that the Manichaean trend is gone, they will no longer have any fighting spirit, this time you go to recover Yongzhou, I think there will be a lot of Manichaean troops will surrender, I am afraid that your resentment against Manichaeism is too deep, and you will take the people who surrendered in the city to get angry, this will only arouse the determination of the Manichaean army to fight to the death, on the contrary, if you treat the surrendered army well, it will break their military spirit faster, this must not be forgotten." ”

Ling Xiang nodded and said, "Brother Yang, don't worry, we know how to be measured, and we will take care of the people below." ”
