Chapter 583: Benevolence and Righteousness
In May, Liu Fa had already retreated to Fangzhou with his troops. Yanzhou was empty, and even more depressed, they were really abandoned by Liu Fa. In the face of the Liangshan army, he surrendered without a fight, so Lu Qian easily took all parts of Yanzhou.
But when he marched into Fangzhou, he was blocked in Qiaoshan in the north of the city. It turned out that the reinforcements from Tongzhou and Tongguan had arrived in Fangzhou, and the brothers Wu Jue and Wu Lin were defending on Qiaoshan.
When the Liangshan army attacked the mountain twice and suffered setbacks, Lu Qian looked squarely at the Song army in Qiaoshan, so that people inquired and knew that it was Wu Jue and Wu Lin's brothers, so he sighed that he had met two famous generals in history again, and knew that this battle was not easy to fight.
The Wu brothers were well-known defense masters during the two Song Dynasty. Especially Wu Jue, the battle of Monk Yuan, the battle of Rao Feng Pass, and the battle of Xianren Pass, looking at their exploits, most of them are defensive battles.
And Wu Lin lived longer, and in history, he once led his troops to counterattack the northwest in his later years, although he did not fight very beautifully, but it was also good. After recovering more than ten prefectures and counties, when the troops retreated, they were also ordered by the king to retreat, not defeated by the Jin soldiers, and it was not as good as the Jiangbei battlefield that was beaten by people, but after all, it was gained and lost.
When Wu Jue was alive, Wu Lin always converged his light and hid behind him. This can't but be said to be a good strategy for survival, targeting the fucking urine of the old Zhao family.
The Wu brothers are a pair of hard stubble, and Fangzhou is not easy to fight. But it was okay, Lu Qianle's troops did not move, and he did not even send troops to the southeast, go down to Baishui to seize the capital city of Tongzhou, and then advance Jingzhao Mansion from east to west along the line of Weishui.
Why? Naturally, it was because of the soldiers and horses of Hedong and Heluo.
The credit is so big, the cake is so much, you can't ask people to run for nothing, right?
Lu Qian's eyes have been removed from the specific details of the war, and the overall situation of the president has been changed. This battle lasted for several months, and to this day, not to mention the victory, but there are also seven or eight points.
That Tang Bin and Hu Yanzhuo sent a battle report, Liu Ji had been captured, and the soldiers and horses of his troops either fled or were killed and captured. Now the army is galloping south, so as to cut off the retreat of Sun Zhao's distant army. And Sun Zhao didn't mention whether he could escape the sky, just said that as soon as they let go of Tongguan, Guanzhong would be surnamed Lu from now on!
Xu is Qinfeng Road and Xihe Road still need to be killed, but in this battle, as far as Lu Qian is concerned, he is already confident.
Now he had to think about how to settle down the Guanzhong land. It is still a little different from the Central Plains and northern Hebei, as the core of the Shaanxi Sixth Road, you must see the outside when you look at it.
Unlike the land of northern Hebei, where there is only one Khitan, this land in the west of the country has made a lot of money.
The Western Xia in the north, as well as the Tubo in the southwest, the Huangtou Hui and the Caotou Tatar in the west, that is, the Tatar tribe adjacent to the Huangtou Hui, can also be said to be the Huangtou Tatar, active in the Hexi Corridor, and the Zhao and Song dynasties also paid tribute to Tokyo twice when the state was founded.
Farther afield, that is, in the later frontiers, there were the Western Uighurs and the Green Mountains Western Uighurs, that is, the Black Khan, or the Qarakhanid Dynasty.
To call China a peach blossom stone is from black sweat.
In the future, Chang'an will be the economic, political, and military center of the entire western region, but this is at most a regional center of gravity city, which will be far worse than the importance of the Western Han Dynasty, Sui and Tang dynasties.
Coming from later generations, Lu Qian has a long-term vision beyond this era, and of course knows the importance of trade. In the future, if you want to live a good life in this Guanzhong place, you really have to look outside. This Chang'an will become the starting point to the west! Just like the land Silk Road back then.
This place has been looted by the old Zhao family for more than 100 years, and it is really not rich. In the official history, that is, since the Zhao and Song dynasties, Shaanxi has been able to hook up with poverty, and as for Su, there is no need to say more.
In a few hundred years, the Central Plains and northern Hebei will also be completely finished, and later history books call this 'the southward shift of the economic center of gravity'.
This is a combination of climatic factors and land fertility.
Look at the Jiangnan, is it now transpiring light? But as long as there is a few years of respite, the local economy and people's livelihood will recover quickly. But this phenomenon cannot appear in Guanzhong. This is no longer a thousand miles of fertile soil in the Qin and Han dynasties.
Lu Qian had the intention of revitalizing the north at the earliest, at least the Central Plains, because this was his hometown in later generations. Thousands of years later, the geography teacher of the province said: Our place is a big agricultural county in a big agricultural city in a big agricultural province.
Shivering people don't shiver?
But now he didn't have that idea. The trend is irreversible. The Central Plains may be rich, but external factors make it really difficult to compare with Jiangnan. And in the future, the center of gravity of the world will shift southward, not just the economy.
It is impossible for him to continue to make Bianliang the capital, and one of the reasons why he burned down the palace there back then is this. It is impossible to make Yanjing the capital, and the restrictions of external factors make people helpless. In this world, he has already made up his mind, and he will set the capital of Jinling in the future.
At least the court can be free from the worries of bad luck, and the people will not have to suffer from bad luck.
Yanjing, on the other hand, can be used as an emperor.
……
Lu Qianwu was thinking about his thoughts in Dunzhou City, looking at the big map on the table, and said fiercely in his heart that he would destroy all the pieces of different colors before the Mandate of Heaven.
But I don't know how difficult Sun Zhaoyuan's life is in Huayin County.
It's late, it's late, it's a step too late. was joined by Tang Bin, and the light cavalry captured Huazhou City. When Sun Zhaoyuan led his troops to the city, the city gate was closed and the drawbridge was raised, but the noise of fighting in the city was still open. He's a step too late!
However, if you take a slow step, you will take a slow step. Sun Zhaoyuan tried to call troops to attack the city, but to no avail. And when he saw that the soldiers were all the way and were exhausted, they set up camp outside the city. But that night, the infantry of the Liangshan Army crossed the Weishui on a raft and entered Huazhou City, which made Huazhou even more impregnable.
The morale of the Song army was greatly depressed, and at this time, the news that Tongguan had been broken came from the east, and there was no fighting spirit up and down. Wang Yuan boldly rode into the Song camp alone.
"Sun Xianggong, I haven't seen you for many years, but I've seen a lot of old people."
Wang Yuan and Sun Zhaoyuan are old acquaintances, what is the biggest role of him being recruited this time? That's for today.
Wang Yuan, Yang Kesheng, Yang Keshi, as well as Monk Hua, Rush Vanguard, Thunderbolt, and even Wang Jin, who had just surrendered, all of these people have the same characteristic - the old people of the Western Army. Another difference between the first three is that all three of them are military generals who have shown their heads. The status is much stronger than that of the latter.
In the face of them, the Western Army has a kind of trust in it. When the latter were desperate and desperate, Lu Qian sent such a person to recruit them.
Just like Sun Zhaoyuan now, would he rather die and report to the court, or keep it as a useful person?
No one doesn't care about their lives. Especially in a desperate situation, when his will does not speak for everyone.
"Wang Jidao [Wang Yuanzi], do you still have the face to come to see me?" Sun Zhaoyuan was furious.
Wang Yuan laughed: "The old man came to visit, why did Sun Xianggong speak ill of him." "Shall I show you a way to live?
"Those are false, but they are real. King Lu has an order, you are waiting for the effect, but if you are unwilling, you can be transferred to the Khitan to the party to the Qingtang Qiang in the future, and you will never be asked to wait with the Zhao Song army with swords, guns and cameras. "This is the end of benevolence.
