Chapter 342: The First General of the Late Tang Dynasty
(Thank you olytis, the world has no self, the sunny day fire phoenix, thank you to the people of Sanshan Water for the monthly ticket support and reward!) )
Summer is scorching, and time has entered the dog days. It is already the end of June, and the burning July has begun again, the sun is getting hotter and hotter day by day, and there is still not a drop of rain in the sky. Dengzhou is busy, and all parts of the country have become a big construction site. The team also discovered a large gold mine in Qixia Mountain, Huangxian County, Dengzhou, which is estimated to be another extraordinarily large gold mine, with at least 100,000 catties of gold reserves.
The hungry people who came from all over the world also set off a second wave of refugees, this time the refugees were larger than the first wave of 200,000 refugees. According to statistics, only a few of these refugees came from Laizhou, Qingzhou and other places, and more came from Zizhou, Qizhou, Caozhou, and Xuzhou. On the border of Dengzhou, there has already been an earthen city built by the Zhendong Army.
Although Li Jing did not refuse to help the refugees, he strictly forbade the refugees to break into Dengzhou without permission.
Every refugee who wants to enter Dengzhou must first pass through Dengzhou and register their household registration and family members. Then they have to disinfect their whole body, bathe them with the insecticide they are distributed, give them a new suit, and then burn all the torn clothes on their bodies. And if you have to go to the earth city for a week, and then the doctor checks that there are no infectious diseases, etc., you will be picked up by people from various construction sites and workshops.
The number of refugees in this wave is well over 200,000, as much as more than 300,000. Although there were many people, Li Jing still decided to accept these people. Among them, 100,000 of them were selected to open mines, and their families and some of the weaker ones were transported to Liaodong for reclamation this time. Since the stronger ones have gone to the mines. Hence these reclamation people. All of them are cultivated and hoarded in a collective manner. The land they have reclaimed. In addition to handing over half of it to the Zhendong Army as a military hoard, the remaining half was divided equally and tax-free for three years, and only one bucket of grain per mu was collected in the next five years.
The influx of refugees has also brought a lot of mixed information.
Guanzhong Shangzhou Assassin Shi Wang Shu used the state treasury to run out of money, reducing the people's money, and the people were angry and in an uproar, raising sticks to beat the assassin Shi. Killed two officials. After the new assassin Li He arrived at the office, he arrested more than 30 people, including Li Shuwen, and beheaded them.

Zhan is famous for his honest and straightforward advice, Zhan, the word is a few words, his ancestral home is Pengcheng, and he later migrated to Guizhou. At the beginning of junior high school, Deng Jinshi, four years, and then Deng's erudition and Hong words.

Prime Minister Liu Peng recommended him as a bachelor of Hanlin. Worship the scholar in the house, the relocation department of the waiter and Hanlin Chengzhi. Served as the envoy of the Hedong Festival, ten years, worship the same Pingzhang. Yizong killed dozens of medical officers and detained more than 300 of his relatives. Emperor Xi ascended the throne and moved the history of the assassination of Yuzhou. In February of the first year of Qianfu, he entered the court as a servant of the criminal department. When entering the court, the citizens of the capital raised money and hired hundreds of operas to greet them. In May, Prime Minister Wang Duo commented that An's residence of several acres was still not his own, but he was bribed from all sides, but he was afraid of being known. Liu Ye, who was in charge of Tongping Zhangshi, was a party of Lu Yan and Wei Baoheng, and was afraid of Liu Zhan, and after Zhan returned to Beijing, he was specially invited to a banquet and drink. After returning home from the banquet, he died violently in three days.
In June, the imperial court took Cui Yanzhao, the squire of the military department, and the secretary of the inspection department, as the squire of the middle book and the Tongping chapter, and served as the salt and iron transfer envoy.
Within less than a year of the new emperor's succession, Lu Xie, a scholar of Hanlin, was promoted to Tongping Zhangshi.

The Hanlin bachelor undertook the order, and the household servant Lu took the official and the same peace.
In less than a year, the imperial court worshiped nine prime ministers in a row.
At the same time, former prime ministers Lu Yan and Wei Baoheng were first exiled and then executed. And the prime ministers Pei Tan and Liu Zhan both died of illness shortly after worshipping the prime minister.
With the addition of Wang Duo, the prime minister of the two dynasties, the imperial court now has eight prime ministers.
The prime minister of the central government was replaced like a marquee, and the appointment was appointed, and the local situation was even more unpeaceful. With the influx of a large number of refugees, a piece of news that Li Jing had expected also arrived, and Caozhou was attacked by grass thieves.
After Wang Xianzhi entered the territory of the Tianping Army from the territory of the Yicheng Army, Huang Chao immediately responded to the grievances in his hometown.
Huang Chao led his brothers Huang Cun, Huang Ye, Huang Qin, Huang Bing, Huang Wantong, Huang Sihou, Huang Kui and Huang Enye's other nephews Huang Hao and nephew Lin Yan, as well as his henchmen Wang Chongba, Chang Hong, Ge Congzhou, Zhang Guihou, Zhang Guiba, Liu Tang, Liu Shanfu and others to start an incident.
Known as the Eight Brothers Uprising, before the incident, Huang Chao once wrote an anti-poem proverb, which was spread everywhere.
The golden toad competes for his eyes, but the world in Caozhou is opposed!
In the Huangchao incident, eight of his brothers, plus relatives such as children and nephews, as well as subordinates who sold salt, pulled up more than 1,000 horses, conquered the grievances, and welcomed the arrival of Wang Xianzhi's grass army. Then the two roads converged and attacked Caozhou. Before Xue Chongdu could react, the grass army had already captured Caozhou, the city of Central Plains.
Caozhou is not a small county town but a state city, and the grass army captured Caozhou according to Li Jing's thoughts, and it should have been a shock to the world. But in fact, the news sent back by the spies sent by all parties made Li Jing a little surprised. The fall of Caozhou did not cause too many people to shake. Even Xue Chong, the marshal of the Tianping Army, was not too surprised, but was slowly assembling troops and horses to prepare for encirclement and suppression.
Li Zhen saw Li Jing's reaction and said a few words before Li Jing understood.
Xue Chong, the jiedu envoy of the Tianping Army, actually had just taken over the Tianping Army for not long. As early as after the previous year, there was another person in the Tianping Army, who was the first general of the late Tang Dynasty, Gao Yu. Who is Gao Biao, who can be called the first general of the late Tang Dynasty?
As soon as this name is mentioned, it is Li Jing, and he can't help but be impressed, and even when Li Jing was reading history books, some people lamented that the Tang Dynasty actually died at the hands of Gao Yu. Therefrom. It can be seen that this person is amazing.
Gao Yu. Words are thousands of miles. The grandson of Gao Chongwen, the king of Nanping County. His ancestral home is Bohai County, and his ancestors are the famous Bohai Gao family of the Han nationality in Shandong. The Gao family is a family of forbidden soldiers, and its ancestor Gao Chongwen was a famous general when Emperor Xianzong.
The Gao family has been the general of the forbidden army for generations, and Gao Yulei is the right god. At the beginning of Yizong, Gao Biao commanded the army to control the party and Tubo, and awarded the history of Qinzhou Thorn. In the seventh year of Xiantong, Gao Biao Town Annan, for the Jing Navy Festival Envoy, once renovated Annan to Guangzhou Jiangdao. Communicate with the transportation of materials. Later into the right Jinwu general, except for the balance of the military festival envoy. This year, the Southern Tang Dynasty invaded the border and invaded Xichuan, and the imperial court transferred Gao Yu to the Xichuan Festival envoy to conquer the Southern Zhao.
Gao Biao is now fifty-four years old, and his most majestic achievement is to break through 200,000 barbarian troops when he was guarding Annam and defending the Jing Navy. stabilized the situation in Annan.
Li Yi succeeded to the throne, and first sealed Gao Yu and added the same Zhongshu Men under the Ping Zhangshi. Enter the inspection school Situ and Feng Yanguogong.
When Gao Biao was young, he traveled with the escort of the forbidden army, and there were two eagles flying together, and he said: "I am expensive, and I am among them." 'One shot and two carvings. "Killing two birds with one stone, Gao Yu has since won the title of a carved servant.
When Yizong was still alive, there was a rebellion among the party members in the north, and the generals of the army at that time were in vain in several battles, and it took a long time to add huge military expenditures to get it done. In front of the emperor, Gao Yu, who had become an old acquaintance and was waiting for the right god army, was ordered by the emperor and led more than 10,000 people of the Praetorian Guard to quell the rebellion of the party. At that time, he led the army to be stationed in a place called Changwu, "a number of strange tricks, and a lot of killings", his performance made Yizong very satisfied, and promoted him to do the Qinzhou assassin history, from the Beijing official to the local powerful figure, after which he recovered the river and Wei two prefectures, and recruited more than 10,000 prisoners of the party.
In the seventh year of Xiantong, the imperial court surveyed and quelled the Nanzhao Rebellion, and the commander of the Nanzhao War Zone at that time was Zhang Yin, who was repeatedly defeated, and the emperor thought of Gao Biao, who had repaired the party in the north to a bad temper, and asked him to replace Zhang Yin to preside over the war against Nanzhao. After receiving the task, Gao Yu, who was eager for meritorious service, agreed with Li Jizhou, the supervising army, that he would first cross the Xiangjiang River to fight the outpost, and Li Jizhou would follow up as a backup. However, Li Jizhou was frightened by the Nanzhao people a few days ago, although he had an agreement with Gao Biao, but he did not cross the river at all, but led his troops to watch the fire from the other side, and shouted and cheered for Gao Biao from a distance across the river.
What surprised Gonggong Li was that the army of the Southern Tang Dynasty defeated him and Zhang Yin, but it seemed a little powerless to deal with Gao Piao, who even dared to beat the party members.
Such a victory that greatly promoted the prestige of the Tang Dynasty was sent to Li Weizhou, but it made the mood of Gonggong Li of the prison army very complicated. As a result, he concealed the good news and did not report it. The imperial court was waiting for news here, seeing that there was no movement for several months, so he issued an edict to hold him accountable, Li Jizhou simply did not do two things, falsely accusing Gao Yu of not moving forward and not daring to fight, in order to do this matter thoroughly, he also asked to send the general Wang Yanquan to replace Gao Biao, and the court did not know the details of the road and believed Li Jizhou, and sent Wang Yanquan to replace Gao Biao.
If ordinary people see their boss sending someone else to pick their peaches, they will probably admit that they are aggrieved, but who is Gao Biao? Gao Biao's countermeasures were very direct, he didn't pay attention to Li Jizhou and the newcomer Wang Yanquan, but directly slashed at the neck of Duan Qian, the prince of Nanzhao Duan. Before Wang Yanquan arrived, Gao Biao had already conquered Annan, in addition to killing Duan Qian, he also surrendered more than 20,000 Nanzhao caves, and the Nanzhao Rebellion, which had plagued the imperial court for a long time and cost countless money, was quelled by Gao Biao like lightning in one fell swoop. In this Nanzhao Battle, Gao Biao defeated 200,000 barbarian soldiers!
Since the First World War, Gao Yu, who was born in a famous family, has completely become the first general of the imperial court. Wherever there is anything unfair, transfer him there.
First of all, at the beginning of the year, the probation army in Xuzhou said that Pang Xun Yu took advantage of the famine to make chaos, so the imperial court adjusted the balance of the balance to make Gao Yu lead the army to quell the chaos, and then transferred the Yanhai section to send troops to assist. As soon as the rebellion over there was quelled, Xichuan was attacked by Nanzhao's troops, so the imperial court hurriedly transferred Gao Yu to Xichuan Jiedu envoy.
Gao Biao went to Xichuan to take office, not alone, he also took nearly 10,000 Tianping Festival to Xichuan together. Because of this, most of the soldiers and horses of the Tianping Army were withdrawn at once, and the defense of the states was much empty. Moreover, Xue Chong didn't have any generals, and he didn't pay attention to it when he heard that the grass thieves were pouring into the Tianping Army. Song Wei kindly wrote to him to tell him that Li Jing of the Zhendong Army was willing to send troops to help the Tianping Army suppress the bandits, but he not only didn't feel it, but Song Wei looked down on him and deliberately sarcastically mocked him. Of course, he will not accept Li Jing's kindness.
Over there, he was still ordering Caozhou to send troops to exterminate the grass thieves, but who knew that the official document of Lu Dao had just been issued, and then there was a loss of grievances, and then the news of the loss of Caozhou arrived.
"I think the next target of this grass thief is likely to be Puzhou, and the thief leader Wang Xianzhi is from Puzhou. Do we write a letter to Xue Chong and inform him so that he can be prepared? Li Jing was a little hesitant, this Xue Chong seemed to be an incompetent person, remembering that he later died at the hands of Wang Xianzhi.
"Don't!" Li Zhen smiled bitterly and persuaded, "We have already done what should be done, and it will be annoying to say more." It's someone else's own business, and we can't handle it. ”
Li Jing thinks about it, this is indeed the case, not to mention that Xue Chong is the envoy of the Tianping Army, and he is just a thorn history under the Pinglu Military Festival, that is, Li Jing is the commander of the Ziqing Festival, and he may not be able to manage it so far.
Li Jing can't control other people's affairs, but Li Jing's own Zhendong Army can call the shots.
At that moment, Li Jing ordered the whole army, requiring the whole army to be ready for battle, and the whole army to be in a state of first-level readiness. The three armies of the army, land, and horse have all begun to return to a state of intense training.
"The county prince is preparing for war?" Seeing that the Zhendong Army, which was originally engaged in hunting and fishing to help disaster relief, suddenly started training, Dengzhou felt a sense of impending a storm. Deng Governor Shi Han Anmin and Sima Xiao Dingbang, don't drive Li Wei to hurry to the Assassin's Mansion to meet Li Jing. These three people are all state adjutants, quite idle, and do not have many specific affairs, but they still know about the changes in the army at the first time.
"Just take precautions and make some preparations in advance." Li Jing just smiled, but didn't really say what he thought in his heart. Li Jing is now worried that the grass army will attack Puzhou after capturing Caozhou, as in history. Then it is very likely to move closer to Jeju and Qiju. If they really do this, then Wang Jingwu's rebels and grass army are very likely to be allied, and in that case, they will directly threaten Qingzhou. Although Qingzhou is not the territory of the Zhendong Army, the Zhendong Army is also directly under Ziqing Town.
Qingzhou is the gateway to Dengzhou, if Qingzhou is lost or broken, it will be tantamount to a cold mouth and teeth for Dengzhou, and such a thing must not be allowed to happen. (To be continued......)
