For Hebei's surrendered civil and military officials and soldiers, they can be used not only to prevent it, but also to use it.

Chen Kefu deeply understands that in the Hebei Plain, if these civil and military officials in Hebei and the big families in Hebei cannot be pulled together, then his Hebei base camp will also be unstable. However, when it is used, it must be guarded against, and it is strictly prevented from a situation like Jiangnan in Hebei.

Since the Jin Dynasty, the politics of the family has gradually flourished, and the central court and the imperial power of the emperor have gradually weakened. Especially during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, family politics gradually controlled the power of the court and the localities, and the emperor was no different from a puppet in many cases.

The Sui Dynasty unified the north and the south, and Yang Jian was even more incomparable, using his unparalleled political skills, Yang Jian gradually freed the Great Sui from the family politics and tried to restore the supremacy of imperial power. Yang Jian died, and Yang Guang succeeded to the throne, and he took the suppression of the family gate valve as his main goal.

It's a pity that Yang Guang was too anxious after all, and in the end, when he failed in these several foreign wars and was too heavy on the domestic servants, he pressed the family gate valve to the brink of a rebound. Finally, the internal and external difficulties, the Second Dynasty of the Great Sui Dynasty, which had been divided for hundreds of years, was about to die.

This is really a deep warning for Chen Pojun. He didn't want the world he would conquer in the future to be a dynasty controlled by the family's politics, but he didn't want to let himself fall on the road to hegemony early because of his eagerness for quick success.

Now that Xue Shixiong is dead, the Hebei generals have fought two more defeats. Guo Xun and Xue Shixiong and other leading figures of the Hebei Army died one after another, which can be described as a heavy blow to the Hebei Army. Coupled with his previous reorganization of the Hebei Army, it has initially met Chen Pojun's expectations.

lost the prestige of Xue Shixiong, Li Jing and other commanders of the Hebei Army, and a large number of middle and high-level generals of the Hebei Army such as Guo Xun were killed one after another. Coupled with Luo Yi's initiative to surrender, he gradually split the Hebei Army, and now he has been completely surrendered by the Xue family's uncles and nephews. The Hebei Army, which was once strong in the past, has been completely divided, and Chen Pojun is finally relieved of this strong army.

Without this Hebei army, the local families, clans, local heroes, and rural clans in Hebei will lose their greatest reliance. Chen Pojun can also rest assured that the second phase of the occupation plan of the Hebei Imperial Court will be assured.

It is the top priority at the moment to divide and co-opt, to suppress the group that was originally at the top of the list, to win over the group that was not at the top of the original level, to be supervised by the Beijing Imperial Court, and then to check and balance each other. As long as he has the support of these local forces, then he can restore order to the counties under his control, send officials, appease the homeless, exterminate the mountain and forest bandits, and resume production. Only when the situation in Hebei is further stabilized can Chen Pojun rest assured that he can lead his army to continue southward.

The night was already deep, and there were a few piles of charcoal burning in the big tent, but the heat of the charcoal fire was still no match for the cold autumn wind in the evening night.

Chen Pojun gathered his clothes, finally stopped his pen, picked up the paper table on the case, Chen Pojun carefully checked it again, put it on the table to dry the ink, and then sealed it. Although he led the troops outside, but for the governance of Hebei and other places, Chen Pojun himself could not let go, he used flying pigeons to contact Beijing every day, and Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Mao Xi and other ministers to discuss local governance.

In the quiet autumn night, the sound of the army can be heard from time to time.

Hearing the sound of tuk tuk tuk, Chen Kefu got up and stretched his body left and right, smiling bitterly in his heart, he didn't expect that it would be the third watch so soon. Thinking that Xue Dingguo's uncle and nephew had won the right to command 10,000 soldiers and horses at night, he immediately couldn't wait to lead his troops to pursue Dou Jiande overnight. Chen Pojun couldn't help but be calm, Dou Jiande's escape skills exceeded his expectations, and he chased after him day and night.

But along the way, every time you have to catch up, there will always be hundreds of horsemen left in Dou Jiande's army to resist desperately. These knights who were left behind were not afraid of death, knowing that hundreds of people were sent to death against 20,000 people. But even if the last person was killed in battle, no one ever fled, and no one surrendered.

Along the way, several cavalry teams were broken one after another, although they killed all the four or five thousand horsemen who were left, but they also let Dou Jiande escape with the remaining five thousand horsemen. He also admired Dou Jiande for allowing so many peasant army knights to stay behind without fear of death. As a commander, it can be said that it is extremely successful to win the hearts and minds of the army so far. …,

If Dou Jiande was not born as a peasant, but as Xue Shixiong, he would rebel, but he was afraid that Hebei would really respond to it. Get the support of those big families and local heroes, and then get the support of the people, not to mention being a Hebei soil emperor, is to compete for the world, that is also unknown.

It's a pity that Dou Jiande was born as a peasant, and those upper classes in the Great Sui world will never compromise with him. Although above history, Liu Bang, who was born as a scoundrel, also won the world, and Zhu Baba, who was born as a monk, also founded the Ming Dynasty. But now is the end of the Sui Dynasty, the end of the Sui Dynasty when the family's politics were at its strongest.

Dou Jiande, who was born as a peasant and was the leader of the peasant army, could only be the mourners of the Sui Dynasty, just like other peasant armies, but they could never become the founders of the new dynasty. He will be like the leaders of countless peasant rebels in history, going over mountains and seas and fighting bloody battles, but in the end, he will never be the one who wins the world, and this is the sorrow of the peasant army. It will never be accepted by the small part of society at this time.

Thinking of these mixed thoughts, Chen Pojun couldn't help but put on his clothes and went out of the tent, standing outside the tent and looking up at the starry sky, the sky was full of stars, and it seemed to be eternal for ten thousand years. Let the dynasties rise and fall on the earth, and the conquest of the world, compared with this eternal starry sky, it seems that everything is just a wisp of smoke.

The sound of urgent footsteps was heard, and a figure approached in the light of the camp fire.

"Stop, pass!"

"Sun, Moon, Mountains and Rivers!"

"Drink the Yellow River!"

Hearing the right password, several guards stepped forward, "It's Lord Changshi, may I ask Lord Changshi to come over so late, is there something wrong with His Highness?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji's hair was not tied up, his hair was scattered, a robe was hurriedly draped on his body, he forgot to put on boots under his feet, and he rushed all the way over with a pair of white socks. The expression on his face was even more solemn, and he was still holding a letter tightly in his hand.

Seeing the appearance of the eldest grandson Wuji, Chen Lei, the general of Yulin who greeted him, also knew that it must be a big deal, so he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took him to Chen Pojun's camp.

Chen Kefu was also taken aback when he saw the appearance of the eldest grandson Wuji, in his impression, the eldest grandson Wuji has always been a personable and very important etiquette, although he is young, he is very old and serious, otherwise, he would not have been able to let him be the chief history of the army.

"Mowgli, what's wrong? Is it a letter from Innocent? Seeing Wuji so flustered, Chen Pojun couldn't help but rush forward and ask.

"Your Highness, great joy, great joy!" The eldest grandson Wuji waved the letter in his hand and shouted incoherently excitedly.

Originally, Chen Kefu thought that something big had happened in Beijing, but when he saw that the eldest grandson Wuji was so happy, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was really worried that when he was away, something tricky and important happened in the city of Beijing.

Chen Kefu, who breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the eldest grandson Wuji so excited, and couldn't help asking, "Could it be that the eldest grandson is happy?" "The eldest grandson Wujian is the concubine of King Chen, and she will naturally be the queen in the future, although Chen Pojun has three daughters, he has no children. If the eldest grandson marries Chen Pojun soon and can conceive, there is a great chance of giving birth to a son. If a son is really born, it will be a son-in-law. This is crucial for the eldest grandson to stabilize his position. Even for the eldest grandson family and the Gao family, this is a very important thing. Chen Pojun thought about it and felt that it seemed that only this matter could make the eldest grandson Wuji so excited.

Sure enough, Eldest Sun Wuji was stunned for a moment, and muttered in his mouth, "How could His Highness know about this?" Although Princess Chen's happiness has been confirmed by Dr. Sun, many of the ministers who stayed in the Beijing court also knew about it. However, Princess Chen has already explained to everyone, in order to avoid His Highness's concern, let everyone not disclose this matter to His Highness, just wait for His Highness to return to Beijing in the future, as a surprise. Could it be that Mao Servant couldn't help but tell His Highness first? ”

Chen Kefu was very happy when he heard that the eldest grandson Wujian was really happy. No matter what, the eldest grandson Wujian is a concubine, if he can give birth to the eldest son, it will be a great thing for the Chen family, and even for his power. In this way, there will be many fewer disputes when there are successors.

"Really? Has Sun Sihua confirmed? "The medicine king Sun Silu was acquainted when he was in trouble, and later went to Wagang together, and he was able to escape later thanks to him. Later, when Chen Pojun returned to Liaodong, he also brought him back to Liaodong. This Sun Silian was originally a master who traveled all over the world and searched for folk prescriptions, but Chen Kefu later proposed to build a complete new medical hall for him, which could not only open the museum to treat patients, but also serve as a medical hospital for inheriting medical skills, allowing him to teach and teach people. Chen Pojun gave full material and financial support, and made the hospital very popular, and Sun Sijun stayed. …,

Today, Sun Sili is not only the Wupin Shanzheng in Beijing Hospital, but also the chief imperial doctor of the Royal Hospital. With his confirmation, the eldest grandson Wujian is definitely pregnant.

The eldest grandson Wuji saw that Chen Kefu actually knew, so he simply smiled and said, "Your Highness doesn't know yet, that Sun Divine Doctor has already said it himself, saying that the princess is pregnant with a boy, and this is the eldest son of the Chen family." It's long and long, it's amazing. ”

Hearing that it was confirmed that it was a boy, Chen Kefu couldn't help but admire this Sun Siyan very much, people don't have a B-ultrasound instrument, and they can still know the male and female fetuses.

Chen Kefu patted Changsun Wuji's shoulder with a smile, pointed to his funny look and said, "Even if the eldest grandson is happy, you don't have to be happy like this." Look at you, who wants to be an uncle, but you are much happier than me, who wants to be a father. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji looked down at his outfit and couldn't help laughing.

"Your Highness, your subordinates are dressed like this, but they are not here to report the good news of Princess Chen."

"Oh, is there even greater good news?" Chen Pojun was stunned for a moment, in the middle of the night, what could be more joyful?

The eldest grandson Wuji waved the letter in his hand, and he became excited again, and his hand waving the letter was trembling.

"Your Highness, great news, Yang Guang is dead!"

"Yang Guang is dead?" Chen Kefu was stunned.

"Really. Yang Guang is dead, and I just received a secret letter from the secret service department Taiyuan. ”

Chen Kefu took the letter with a complicated mood, the letter had been translated, and Chen Kefu took the letter and looked at it word by word.

Sure enough, the intelligence in the letter showed that just a few days before he led his troops south, the forces of all parties in Taiyuan City finally launched the final competition. Emperor Yang Guang finally woke up after two months in a coma, and Yang Guang learned what Yang Yun had done in Taiyuan. So he secretly wrote an edict to the eldest grandson Yan Wang Yang Qi, and on the other hand, he wrote an edict to Wei Wensheng, Yu Wenhua, Fan Zigai of the Guanzhong forces, and Wang Shichong of the Jianghuai forces, Yun Dingxing, the uncle of the Yan Wang, the prime minister Su Wei, Nayan Pei Shiju, and Li Yuan, who controlled Hedong, and other eight people, so that the eight of them could jointly support the Yan King Yang Qi to succeed to the throne in the future.

On the one hand, Li Yuan, who stayed behind in Taiyuan and Tang Guogong, accepted the emperor's edict and promised to support King Yan's accession to the throne with Yun Dingxing and others, and connected King Yan to the Tang State Mansion. But secretly he pretended to fall to Yang Jun, the king of Liao, and married the third daughter Li Xiuning to the king of Liao as a concubine, and the two sides formed an alliance to join forces to sweep away the Jianghuai forces such as Yu Wenhua and Wei Wensheng and Wang Shichong, and Yang Yong inherited the throne.

But in fact, Li Yuan secretly formed an alliance with Wang Shichong, and formed an alliance with his eldest son Li Jiancheng and Wang Shichong's daughter. On the night of the melee in Taiyuan, Yang Jun's troops fought with Wei Wensheng, Yu Wenhua and others of the Guanzhong forces. At the time of Guan Jian, Li Yuan suddenly attacked, captured Taiyuan City, and took control of Jinyang Palace.

Subsequently, Li Yuan and Wang Shichong took advantage of the defeat of Wei Wensheng and others of the Guanlong faction and Pei Renji of Hebei and Yang Yichen of Shandong who supported Yang Xuan, but they suddenly killed from all sides. The original strongest Liaowang party and Guan Long's faction were the first to be out, and each led the remnants of the army to withdraw from Taiyuan.

After the victory of the alliance between Li and Wang, Li Yuan attacked Wang Shichong on the second day. However, the equally treacherous Wang Shichong had already prepared, and it was his stand-in who went to Li Yuan's family banquet in the city. After learning that the stand-in was killed, Wang Shichong set up an ambush in the Jianghuai army camp outside the city. When Li Shimin led the Hedong army to kill, Wang Shichong ambushed Li Shimin instead. Li Shimin lost his troops and retreated into Taiyuan. Wang Shichong also immediately led his troops and horses to leave Hedong and return to Jianghuai.

On the third day after the Taiyuan melee, the Li family purged Taiyuan and completely controlled the Hedong counties one after another. On the third day of Wang Shichong's withdrawal from Taiyuan, news of Yang Guang's funeral came out in Taiyuan City.

All of a sudden, all parties who had lost the Taiyuan dispute accused Li Yuan and his son of killing the monarch, and it was even rumored that Li Shimin entered the palace that day and stabbed the emperor Yang Guang to death with a sword. As soon as this rumor came out, the Quartet shook, and the world looked sideways.

ps: One person is arrogant, Yang Guang is dead...... Ask for a tip!
