Cheng Han Chapter 2

During the journey, Jin Xuangong was also making up all kinds of information about Cheng Han, this time he went south, he was not a front-line leader, and he naturally needed to have a comprehensive understanding of the Cheng Han regime.

Regarding the past and present life of the Cheng Han Dynasty, the imperial court has already had a special person to collect and sort it out, and compile it into a book, so you can have a general understanding of the national conditions and national policies of the Cheng Han Dynasty as long as you read it carefully.

The Li clan of the Cheng Han Dynasty, known as Bayi, traces back to its origins, and its clan should be a person who lives in the ditch in Brazil. The fame of the people may not be as great as that of Zhuyi such as Diqiang, but it also has a long history, as early as the period of King Wu and Yin, the people appeared on the battlefield.

After the Chu and Han dynasties fought for hegemony, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was sealed in Hanzhong, and the people in Brazil also gave great support to the Han ancestors, so that finally in the former Han Dynasty, the people enjoyed preferential treatment.

In the late Han Dynasty, Zhang Lu ruled Hanzhong during the reign of Hanzhong, and then Zhang Lu returned to Cao Cao, and this branch continued to move out and was placed in Luoyang County in Longshang. There are many Hu in Luoyang County, such as the Di people Lei clan, the Di people Fuhong who have long been righteous, etc., and the Li clan lives here, so they have the title of Bayi.

During the Yuankang period of the former Jin Dynasty, the Qi people Qi Wannian made a rebellion between Qin and Yong, which lasted for several years, although Qi Wannian was finally eliminated, but Qin Yong was also a piece of ruin, and then it set off a mighty uprising of the displaced people in the six counties of Qin Yong.

The Ba Yi Li clan was one of the leaders of the Qin Yong exiles, and led the exiles from the six counties into Bashu, which was naturally a difficult process. Although the Li family was born in Bashu, there is no Sangzi cone to stand again, and the displaced people of the six counties under his command were jointly hostile to the Yizhou Assassin and the wealthy clan in Shu at that time.

After hard work, two generations of leaders Li Te, Li Liu, and Li Liu died one after another, and finally under the leadership of Li Te's son Li Xiong, he defeated the former Jin Yizhou assassin Shi Luoshang and officially entered Chengdu, thus arrogating the king.

After entering Chengdu, in addition to continuing to fight against the resistance forces in the Shuzhong realm, Li Xiong was also actively encircling the local powerful clans in Shuzhong, especially the Fuling tycoon Fan Changsheng's submission was of the most significant significance. It was also under Fan Changsheng's suggestion that Li Xiong brazenly proclaimed himself emperor, and the country name Dacheng was in order to worship the white emperor Gongsun Shu, who also divided Shuzhong and the country was called "Chengjia" at the turn of the two Han Dynasty.

During Li Xiong's reign, the power of Chengguo climbed to its peak. The displaced people of the six counties were originally migrating and wandering, surviving in death, and extremely fierce, coupled with the help of marginal figures such as Fan Changsheng and others among the indigenous heroes in Shu, they were able to suppress the local forces in Shuzhong.

Li Xiong has enjoyed the country for more than 30 years, and the general trend of the world has changed in the past 30 years, but Shuzhong has not been disturbed by too many foreign forces because of the unique closed environment, and the Li family has always been a dominant family.

In the process of Li Xiong's domination of Shuzhong, the two Zhao in the north attacked each other, and Jiangdong was also full of coup disputes, and several powerful forces had no time to interfere in the situation in Shuzhong.

Li Xiong died in the eighth year of Xianhe, and the year before, His Majesty the current Emperor of Daliang had just attacked the southern invasion army of the state of Liang in Huainan. Tao Kan, the old minister of Jiangdong and Shaanxi, also rose up and was brave, commanding the two towns of Jingjiang to strengthen the army and restore the important town of Xiangyang, and the prosperity of the southern country began to emerge.

Although the situation in Shuzhong was generally stable and rising steadily during Li Xiong's lifetime, Li Xiong was wise and wise, and finally left hidden dangers on the issue of heirs. He has more than a dozen concubines, but he has no heirs, because he made his brother Li Dang's son Li Ban the crown prince a long time ago.

Li Xiong's bones were not cold, and his sons Li Qi and Li Yue killed the crown prince Li Ban in front of Li Xiongling, which set off a clan disaster that lasted for several years. This not vast plain in Shuzhong should have been a paradise beyond the world's military disasters, but due to the rivalry between the Li clan, the bloody rain and bloody wind were especially fierce in the Central Plains.

At this time, the Jiangdong Imperial Court was enjoying the dividends of the southern invasion army of the Qiang Kingdom, and the prestige of the southern Shen Metropolitan Governor and took the power of Yuzhou and Xuzhou, and was busy with the layout of the Central Plains, so he had no time to take care of it. At that time, the important town of Jingzhou, which was facing the country, was also entering a period of adjustment when Tao Kan went to the position and Yu Yi went to work, and failed to seize this opportunity to attack Shuzhong.

The clan turmoil that lasted for several years in Chengguo finally ended with the death of Li Xiong's lineage, and the throne was temporarily attributed to Li Shou, Li Te's brother and Li Xiang's son.

After Li Shou won the country, he changed the name of the country to Han, which is the origin of the name "Cheng Han". Although the Li family is only from the origin of the Brazilian people, but the history is not a short board, the two regimes that once divided the Shu land, the family of Gongsun Shu, and the Ji Han of Liu Bei, the lord of Shu, all have some respect.

When Li Shou won the country, it coincided with the Central Plains War, Wang Shi defeated Shikan in Hebei Province in the first battle, and then Jiangdong launched a coup d'état led by Zhuge Hui and others. Counting up, Li Shoudeguo is not far from the pace of His Majesty the current emperor when he first took charge of the military and political power in Jiangdong.

Soon after His Majesty the Emperor took charge of Jiangdong, it was convenient for Luoyang to set up a platform, and after a period of accumulation of morale, he waved his troops to the west and launched a western campaign to recover Guanlong.

After Li Shou successfully abolished Li Xiong's son Li Qi and stole the throne, he did not make great efforts to govern the country, but began to indulge his selfish desires, began to overhaul the palace, indulged in extravagant pleasures, and thought that he was in danger of being in danger of being in danger.

Li Shou died in the sixth year of his reign and was succeeded by his son Li Shi. If Li Shou still has a bit of moderation and sobriety as a pioneer master, then Li Shi is simply a state of ruin, arrogant and ferocious, brutal killing Yuan Fu, rigid and self-serving, and lascivious and lazy.

However, at this time, the external situation of Chenghan has also undergone great changes. Jingzhou Wang Shi began to actively attack Cheng Han in the west, especially with the end of Wang Shi's western expedition and the return of Guan Long, Wang Shi even took Hanzhong directly, and the Ba border was in danger, Li Shi finally panicked, and began to face up to the power of the country, struggling to survive.

Speaking of this, His Majesty the Emperor of Great Liang also has to sigh at the changes that one person has brought to many aspects of the world. In the original history, Li Shi's brother Li Guang recommended himself as a prince because he had no children, and then forced Li Guang to commit suicide.

However, in today's time and space, under the huge external pressure, the Li brothers did not kill each other, in order to unite the forces to resist the pressure of the king, Li Shi took the initiative to appoint Li Guang as the emperor's younger brother, and used it as the Yizhou pastor to garrison the Bashu gateway fortress in Langzhong, Brazil.

In addition, Li Shi took the initiative to contact the Yang family of Qiu Chi State, which was a little good, hoping that Qiu Chi Guo could be his foreign vassal and resist the Wang Shi from the right side of Long.

Soon after, the military conflict between the north and the south broke out, and the affairs of the borders of Luoyang and Taiwan were temporarily suspended, and the whole country went north to attack the country.

This Northern Expedition lasted for two years from the preparation for war to the division of victory and defeat, and then it was created by the new dynasty to recuperate. By the time the chapter system was decided and the imperial court set its sights on Cheng Han again, it had already left Cheng Han a respite for nearly four years.

Before he officially took up his new position, all Jin Xuangong could get into contact with was these old things that had no need for secrecy. As for the real militaristic secrets, they will not be known until they arrive at the Runan Wangzheng Mansion.

The Jingxiang Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is located in the White Emperor City of Badong, which is also the base camp of Pingshu this time. It was the flood season, Jin Xuangong and his companions swam up the river, and arrived at Padang Yufu in a few days.

At this time, in the Padang realm, the boats were already fully loaded, and the characters gathered. When Jin Xuangong and the others arrived here, the person in charge of receiving them was Yuan Qiao, the envoy of the Dadu Governor's Mansion and the military advisor, the wine Chen County.

The use of troops by the king's division, especially in this kind of large-scale and significant warfare, is often accompanied by a staff team of a large scale to make overall plans, determine the layout of the strategy, and stimulate morale.

Jin Xuangong knew Yuan Qiao, but he was only a friend who nodded a few times earlier in Hebei, and when he saw that his direct subordinate officials came to greet him in person, he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Yuan Qiao is in his early thirties, but his resume is already very rich, and he is also a strong talent that today's saints focus on cultivating. He was originally in Hebei as the assassin of Xiazhou, and when the matter of cutting down Shu was officially put on the agenda, he was recalled to Luoyang by the sage to assist the king of Runan to form the Jingxiang Metropolitan Governor's Mansion as a military mastermind.

The reason why Yuan Qiao personally came out to greet Jin Xuangong and the others was really eager to see it. Originally, in his opinion, Cheng Han was trapped in Shuzhong, and there was perennial chaos and internal friction, coupled with the fact that his own Jingzhou headquarters had frequent military strikes over the years.

This time, the king of Runan came to the south with an edict, in fact, there is no need to invest too much power in the court, as long as the forces of Jingzhou town are slightly integrated, it is not difficult to destroy Shu.

But after actually coming to Padang, Yuan Qiao found that this idea was still too optimistic. The king of Runan went south this time, and the troops under the command of the vanguard were more than 8,000 people, and most of the subordinates of the metropolitan governor's palace were between 100 people. The people in Jingzhou town are about 60,000 people, and there are Li Yang, Zhou Fu, Deng Yue and other generals in command, which can be described as strong soldiers and horses.

However, when the two groups of people really begin to integrate and co-ordinate, the consequences are not amplified by one plus one is greater than two, but become a bit of a drag on each other. The reason for this is not complicated, it is that the structure of Wang Shi's army is incompatible with Jingzhen's tribal system.

To take the simplest example, when the king of Runan arrived in Xiangyang, he ordered the generals of Jingzhen to report the number of troops that could be deployed to participate in the battle. The generals of each department were also obedient, and soon reported to each other, and the result was that Jingzhen could send 40,000 people to participate in the battle to destroy Shu.

However, when Wang Yi of Runan arrived in Padang, the situation became complicated. Soldiers from all sides gathered here, and in just a few days, as many as 30,000 troops gathered in Padang alone, and there were more than 30,000 troops still on the way!

If you add the number of troops left behind in the report of various departments, then the number of soldiers in Jingzhou alone in the register alone is as high as nearly 100,000, which is nearly double the number of soldiers in Jingzhen in the first year of the Great Cause!

Yuan Qiao went deep into the army to investigate, and he saw many wonders, such as the four generations of the old and young enlisted in the army, and the elders were all children and grandchildren, up to eighty old people, down to drooping children, one by one was excited, and the slogan was shouted loudly, revitalizing the community, the whole self, and the husband was responsible!

But the problem is that the old man can't stand steadily, and he really wants to send a battle formation, and he has to be supported by two people, how to attack the already dangerous and unusually dangerous Shu Dao?

Everything looks at two sides, and on the good side, Jing Xiang is enthusiastic and diligent in the king's affairs. On the bad side, this is Jing Zhen up and down using this plan to make a profit!

Jingzhou has been divided for a long time, and if it is said that the upper and lower levels are chaotic, it is also biased. After all, for a long time, Jingzhou has borne a considerable part of the internal and external military pressure with its heavy separation. And this kind of tribal military system, under the strict background of the Liang system, seems out of place.

Although as early as the first year of the Great Cause, the imperial court had already promoted the reform of Jingzhen, but it was difficult to change it once and for many years. Especially before the king of Runan went south, Jingzhen still had to maintain a military attack on Shuzhong, and in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of these troops, many chapter reforms could only be superficial.

The king of Runan went south this time, presided over the affairs of the invasion of Shu, and all kinds of policies, attacks, logistics support, etc., were all carried out under the orders of the imperial court.

This model is completely different from Jingzhen's previous organization that will oversee everything, and all the expenses will be borne by the imperial court. According to the calculation, the income from the military is far more generous than the income from the acres of land in a year. Moreover, the victory of the imperial court is obvious, and it can be described as a sure victory with a strong attack, and the danger is not great, and it can also pick up merit with the wind, which has caused the enthusiasm of Jingzhen for Shu.

After perceiving this, Yuan Qiao hurriedly suggested that the king of Runan suspend the requisition of men and horses from all walks of life, and proposed to streamline the army and attack with elite troops.

Before the army entered Shu, Jingzhen itself was in chaos first, which also embarrassed the original Jingzhou town guards. Not all of them are obsessed with the general trend and greedy for short-term profits.

In particular, the veterans such as Li Yang at the top also deeply felt the context of the world's broad progress, and were willing to actively move closer to the imperial court. But it has been a fact for a long time that Jingzhen has been unable to return, and they are each trapped in it, and they are incapable, and there is nothing they can do to change this situation.

The fact is one thing, but the major events of the imperial court must not become an opportunity for the town generals to seek personal gain. Therefore, during the time he arrived in Badong, Yuan Qiao had been busy with the reorganization of the people in Jingzhen Headquarters, and the subordinates of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion who had arrived in advance were also busy with their skills.

After Jin Xuangong and the others arrived, they immediately plunged into this kind of busyness. Words alone are not enough to describe the enormity of this task.

Those Jingzhen generals, the number of troops they said could not be in line with reality, in fact, it was not necessarily a deliberate lie, but they themselves did not know how many troops they supported, and in their hearts they were more shy about completely revealing their family background.

This reorganization project is also different from the integration and naturalization of displaced people. This is because these units still have to undertake combat tasks, and once they encounter any operational or defensive orders in the process of reorganization, it means that all previous achievements will be wasted, and everything will have to be started all over again.

Such a heavy task is not something that can be completed in a short period of time, and the matter of cutting down Shu cannot be delayed.

It must be known that this attack on Shu is not just Badong Road, Liangzhou Mao Bao will launch an offensive from Hanzhong to attack the Langzhong Sword Pavilion Fortress in Brazil, the gateway of Shuzhong North Road. At that time, Longyou Yuman will also go south from Longshang, continue to suppress the Qiu Chi Kingdom, and enter Shu from Yinping Road.

If Badong delays the fighter plane here for such a reason, so that the three-way army cannot become its encirclement, it will provide Cheng Han with room for resistance separately, which will add twists and turns to the attack on Shu.

As the staff officer of the Commander-in-Chief of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, based on the reality, Yuan Qiao actually made two preparations.

The reorganization of the Jingzhou headquarters is one thing, and it is impossible for the Jingzhou headquarters to be pulled into the battlefield in such a state, so in addition, a tactic of elite attack has also been prepared. That is, only with the essence of the current control, directly send troops to attack the west, ignore those targets along the way, and go up the river to Chengdu in the heart of Shuzhong.

As soon as this plan was proposed, it was approved by Shen Yun, the king of Runan. Shen Yun had been in the military for a long time and was tired of this kind of internal disputes, although the strategy specified by Yuan Qiao was not lacking in risk, but he was still willing to try it compared to being trapped in Badong for a long time.

Although the imperial court had been sharpening its knives against Cheng Han for a long time, it had lost the suddenness of the surprise attack, and Cheng Han also had many fortifications along the river. However, if the war is only limited to the front line of the river, even if it is against the current, the combat effectiveness of the Wang Shishui army is still the existence of crushing the Cheng Han army, and there is a great chance of success in attacking Chengdu along the waterway.

Of course, it is possible to win or lose alone. The biggest danger is that if Liangzhou and Longyou fail to form a multi-line breakthrough, then the king division of Badong will be helpless, even if Chengdu is captured, but if a group of leaders of the Cheng and Han dynasties, including the Han lord Li Shi, are not captured, then the Cheng Han can also dispatch forces on all sides of the Shuzhong Plain to counterattack this road of the king's division.
