Chapter 355: Hebei Qiang Domain, Youzhou Lulong

(Thank you for the monthly ticket support of the two of them, thank you!) )

Since the pacification of southern Liaoning, Li Jing did not rush to the north, but stationed the soldiers and horses of the Zhendong Army in southern Liaoning, supervised and supervised the integration of troops and horses in various departments in southern Liaoning, and the establishment of eight counties in eastern Liaoning.

On the other hand, Li Jing collected all the land on a large number of small forces that had been attacked, and then distributed it to the soldiers and the people. Even the land originally occupied by the various departments in southern Liaoning, except for a small part reserved for those generals, the rest was also collected as military land.

Li Jing also summoned the people of the eight counties in southern Liaoning and the displaced people who had moved from Dengzhou to reclaim and hoard land, and according to the precedent, no grain would be levied for three years, and only one bucket would be levied within five years after three years.

The soldiers and horses of various departments in southern Liaoning were also selected through a great competition, and the 9,000 of the most elite people were left behind and set up nine battalions to establish nine military towns. More than 30,000 others were eliminated, given land, and returned to the people. And he chose some of the strong ones, and selected 1,000 people from each county to be set up as a solidarity camp according to the county to which they belonged. In peacetime, he works at home and farms, and in autumn and winter, he conducts intensive training, and in the event of a war, he will also be recruited and activated according to the situation.

They bring their own equipment, armor, weapons, etc., and they have subsidized rations during training, but they have no food and salary in normal times. When conscripted for war, there is also a subsidy, and there is a reward for meritorious service. More than half of the million acres of land in southern Liaoning were owned by the Governor's Office, and Li Jing used one-third of them to reward the soldiers of the Zhendong Army and the Southern Liaoning Army, and the rest was used as a military hoard, and the land output was used to raise the army.

The time soon came to mid-July, and Li Jing had moved from Weiba Mountain City to Changxing Island. On the island, he presided over the new sailor battalion of Anlan and Fubo. Two new naval battalions were built, one to guard the Changshan Islands and one to guard the Changxing Islands. Half of the two sailor battalions were newly recruited soldiers and horses, and half were veterans of the two battalions of Zhenhai and Nutao.

Right now. The soldiers of the Anlan Naval Division who patrolled the sea brought back a boat.

The person who came claimed to be the envoy of Li Maoxun, the envoy of the Qingyi Army of Youzhou Town. I'm here to see the county princess! Liu Xun reported loudly.

Li Jing, who was reviewing the official documents, heard the three words Li Maoxun in Youzhou. His hands shook involuntarily.

Li Maoxun, in the late Tang Dynasty, there were two Li Maoxun who were relatively famous. The first Li Maoxun was originally a descendant of Hui Absi, and when Zhang Zhongwu was in power, he surrendered with his marquis. Zi Shen Yong, good at galloping, Zhong weapon. Let the generals and soldiers, often take advantage of the side to accumulate merit, and give surnames and names. This Li Maoxun was a Uighur nobleman who was given the surname Han only after he surrendered to Zhang Zhongwu.

There is also Li Maoxun, but he is the younger brother of Li Maozhen, the king of Qi. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, he was the general of Fengxiang, and Maozhen was the envoy of the Danzhou Festival, and he was tired of serving in the middle of the bureau. Later, his family was captured by Zhu Wen, so he returned to Zhu Wen and changed his name to Zhou Yi.

Since it was Li Maoxun from Youzhou, it must be Li Maoxun, a Uighur.

This person is in Li Jing's impression. It's not a good bird. Calculating the time, it seems that it has not been long since the Youzhou Rebellion recorded in history. History. Because at this time, Zhang Gong, the marshal of the Lu Long Army, was brutal, and Chen Gongyan, the general of Youzhou, was extremely authoritative in the Lu Long Army. This Li Maoxun sent someone to assassinate Chen Gongyan, and then raised troops to rebel under the banner of Chen Gongyan, attacking Zhang Gongsu in Youzhou, claiming to be Chen Gongyan's vanguard unit. Zhang Gongsu met the battle, and the army was defeated and fled to Chang'an. When Li Maoxun entered Youzhou, people knew that this was not Chen Gongyan, but he could only support Li Maoxun.

This matter can be described as quite unusual, and it can also be seen that this Li Maoxun is cunning.

Now Youzhou is still Zhang Gongsu as the marshal, and Chen Gongyan has not been assassinated yet, but look at the time is almost up, this Li Maoxun is here, there is no good thing.

However, because Li Maoxun sent an envoy to come, Li Jing's eyes couldn't help but look at Youzhou, which is across the sea from southern Liaoning.

Youzhou is one of the three towns of Heshuo, and it is also an old separatist town.

In the second year of Tang Xuanzong's succession, he set up the Youzhou Jiedu Envoy, who was responsible for defending Xi and Khitan, governing Youzhou, and governing Youzhou, Jizhou, Fuzhou, Danzhou, Yizhou, Dingzhou, Hengzhou, Mozhou, Cangzhou and other 9 states. In the first year of Tianbao, it was changed to Fanyang Festival.

At the time of Tianbao, Jiedu made An Lushan take Fanyang, Hedong and Pinglu as the base, launched a rebellion, and established Dayan, which is known as the Anshi Rebellion in history. After the end of the Anshi Rebellion, the Fanyang Jiedu envoy was changed to the Youzhou Jiedu envoy, because he led the Lu Long army, also known as the Lulong Jiedu envoy. In the first year of Guangde (763), Li Huaixian, a rebel general of the Anshi Rebellion, surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty appointed Li Huaixian as the envoy of Youzhou and Lulong Festival in order to envelop the old part of Hebei. During the rebellion of the four towns in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, Zhu Tao of Youzhou proclaimed himself the king of Ji. In the fourteenth year of Yuanhe (819), Lu Longjiedu made Liu Zong's submission, marking the peak of Yuanhe Zhongxing. Two years later, the imperial court appointed Zhang Hongjing, a civil official, as the envoy of Youzhou and Lulongjie. However, due to improper disposal measures, Lu Longjiedu was controlled by the military generals again. Until the fall of the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Hongjing's improper handling made Zhu Kerong, the general of the Youzhou Department, lead his troops to take Youzhou and stand on his own, and once again refused to be ordered by the court, supporting the army and respecting himself.

Zhu Zirong was born in a famous family, his grandfather was the original Lu Long Festival envoy Zhu Tao, when Tang Dezong, Zhu Tao's elder brother Zhu Zhu lived in Chang'an, took advantage of the Jingyuan Rebellion, established himself as the Emperor of Great Qin, surrounded Dezong in Fengtian, and was defeated and killed. Zhu Kerong served as a small school in Youzhou when he was a teenager, serving Lu Longjiedu to make Mr. Liu, and then Mr. Liu wanted to return to Chang'an, fearing that the school would change, so he brought the ambitious generals to Chang'an, Zhu Kerong was also among them, and then he returned to the town privately.

At that time, the world was peaceful, and the prime ministers Cui Zhi and Du Yuanying did not know the military aircraft, nor did they have a long-term strategy, thinking that the Lianghe region had been pacified, so Zhang Hongjing, who had no political experience, replaced General Liu as the envoy of the Lulong Festival. In July 821, Wei Yong rode a horse, and a small colonel rushed to his lead, Wei Yong wanted to scold him with a cane, but the sergeant refused to accept it, Zhang Hongjing ordered Du Yu Hou to investigate, intending to deal with it strictly, so the army was in chaos. That night, the soldiers and battalions cried out, and the generals could not control the school, so they attacked the mansion, plundered the goods and women in Zhang Hongjing's house, imprisoned him in the Jimen Pavilion, and killed the staff Wei Yong, Zhang Zongyuan, Cui Zhongqing, Zheng Xun, Duyu Marquis Liu Cao, and Zhang Baoyuan and others.

The next day, the sergeant repented and went to the hall together to apologize to Zhang Hongjing and ask to be reappointed as the commander-in-chief. But Zhang Hongjing refused to answer. The sergeants consulted with each other: "The public is silent. It is not forgiveness. How can there be no commander in the army for a day! So everyone took Zhu Hu, the old general in the palace, as the queen, and Zhu Hu resigned as old age and recommended his son Zhu Kerong to succeed him, and everyone agreed.

When the news came out, the Tang Dynasty demoted Zhang Hongjing as the assassin of Jizhou, and transferred Liu Wu to the envoy of the Lulong Festival, but Liu Wu was afraid that Zhu Kerong would be strong and strong, and he was unwilling to take up his post. So he returned to serve as the envoy of the Zhaoyi Festival, and the court had to award Zhu Kerong as the regular attendant of the left scattered cavalry of the school, and awarded the Fu Festival.

In May 826, the Youzhou army was in turmoil, and the soldiers killed Zhu Kerong and his son Zhu Yanling, and set up his son Zhu Yansi as the envoy of the Lulong Festival, but Zhu Yansi was fierce and did not sympathize with the soldiers. Soon he was killed by Li Zaiyi, the commander of the Duzhi soldiers.

Zhu Zirong has been the envoy of Youzhou Festival for five years, and his son Zhu Yansi has not even completed a year. was killed by Li Zaiyi.

Li Zaiyi is the Tang Dynasty clan after Li Chengqian, the abolished prince of Tang Taizong. However, because Li Chengqian was deposed, their branch also became a concubine. It is recorded that his ancestors were known for their prowess on the battlefield for generations, serving in Youzhou, the capital of Lulong Town. Li Zaiyi lost his father at an early age and traveled around with his fellow villagers. He was physically strong and good at wrestling, and he impressed Liu Ji, who was the envoy of Lu Longjie at the time, and was recruited into the pro-army.

Youzhou Mutiny, Li Zaiyi, who was the commander of the soldiers and horses before the Yaqian at the time, was also the general of Youzhou, he saw the opportunity, killed Zhu Yanrong, and played the court for his crimes. Tang Wenzong took Li Zaiyi as the inspector of the school's household department and the imperial historian, and Lu Longjie was the envoy and the king of Wuwei County.

During Li Zaiyi's tenure as the marshal of Lu Long, he volunteered to help the imperial court in the war, crusading against Li Tongjie, who claimed to be the envoy of the Henghai Festival, exhausting the enemy army, and sealing the sky with merit. After that, Lee Jae-yi participated in the attack on Cangzhou, the capital of Henghai Town. In the third year of Taihe (829), Li Tongjie surrendered, and Li Zaiyi awarded Tongzhongshu to the next level. In the fourth year of Taihe (830), the Khitan cavalry entered the Kou, Li Zaiyi defeated them, captured their leader Ru Xian, and sent them to Chang'an to add merit to the Taibao.

In the spring of the fifth year of Taihe (831), the imperial court gave Li Zaiyi a monument of merit. Li Zaiyi invited the envoy to visit the ball game, but unexpectedly, the soldiers and horses in the backyard caused Yang Zhicheng to make chaos and took the opportunity to expel Li Zaiyi. Li Zaiyi and his son Li Zhengyuan were forced to flee to Yizhou in the neighboring town of Yiwu, and the imperial court was unable to control the matter, so they had to let Yang Zhicheng stay behind, and Li Zaiyi and his son returned to Chang'an.

Li Zaiyi calculated, and he only served as a marshal for five years, and was expelled by Yang Zhicheng, who also belonged to the tooth general.

Yang Zhicheng only served as a marshal for three years, and in the winter of the eighth year of Taihe (834), Lu Longjun was in chaos again, Yang Zhicheng and the eunuch Li Huaitong were expelled, and Shi Yuanzhong was pushed to stay behind.

Shi Yuanzhong has been a marshal for a few years longer than his predecessors, and he has been a marshal of Lu Longjun for seven years, but he has not escaped the fate of his predecessors. In September of the first year of Huichang (841), Lu Long's army rebelled again, and Chen Xingtai launched a mutiny and killed Shi Yuanzhong, the envoy of Jiedu. After several setbacks, Lu Long was taken over by Zhang Zhongwu.

Chen Xingtai is the general of Lulong Town. In September of the first year of Huichang (841), Lu Long's army was in turmoil, Chen Xingtai launched a mutiny, killed Shi Yuanzhong, and appointed himself as the commander of the festival, but the people were not convinced, Tang Wuzong did not approve him to serve as the envoy of Lu Long's festival under the advice of Prime Minister Li Deyu, and after only one month, he was killed by Zhang Jiang.

The tooth general Zhang Jiang killed Chen Xingtai, but he was afraid of the prestige of Zhang Zhongwu, the military envoy of Jibei Xiongwu, and once asked him to preside over military affairs, but later changed his mind and asked himself to be the envoy of the festival. Zhang Zhongwu was furious and raised troops to attack Youzhou. In order to justify his name, Zhang Zhongwu sent Changshi Wu Zhongshu to Chang'an, the capital division, and asked to lead his troops and horses to conquer Zhang Jiang. Wu Zhongshu persuaded Prime Minister Li Deyu, and after weighing and considering, Tang Wuzong appointed Zhang Zhongwu as the commander of Lu Long's army, and allowed him to lead the army to quell the rebellion. Zhang Zhongwu attacked Youzhou with 800 elite soldiers and 500 Tutuan, conquered it in one fell swoop, killed Zhang Jiang, quelled the riot and officially assumed the post of Lulongjie envoy in the first month of the following year.

After that, Zhang Zhongwu adopted a series of measures to reward cultivation and weaving, develop the economy, implement military reclamation, protect the people's livelihood, and strictly train soldiers and horses, reduce the old and weaken, reward the good and punish the inferior, so that the appearance of Lu Long's rule has changed, the morale of the army has risen sharply, the combat effectiveness has improved, and it has become a strong force in the towns in the late Tang Dynasty.

In the second year of Huichang (842), the general of Hui Hui led the army to the south to plunder the border. While strengthening the garrison of the border cities, Zhang Zhongwu ordered his brother Zhang Zhongzhi to lead an army of 30,000 to counterattack. In this battle, Lu Long's army broke the Hui cavalry in one fell swoop and surrendered more than 30,000 people. Najie Si fled north alone and was killed by Wujie Khan. After defeating Yu Wei, Zhang Zhongwu sent the general Shi Gongxu troops into the Khitan and Xi tribes, killing more than 800 Hui Jian envoys, thus restoring the Tang Dynasty's jurisdiction over the two tribal peoples.

In August of the same year, the Tang Dynasty sent troops to the three routes, the Northern Expedition to Hui, and Zhang Zhongwu served as the envoy of the Eastern Huifu. In the campaign that lasted several months, Zhang Zhongwu cooperated closely with the other two soldiers and horses, and surrendered more than 100,000 people, and Wujie Khan was forced to flee to the Western Regions. After that, Zhongwu conquered individual tribes of the Xi tribe who did not obey the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty, and forced their leaders to bow down and pay tribute to the Tang Emperor.

"The many who are broken have a surplus of seven thousand; Expand the frontier of Xianbei and open up thousands of miles. Wan Di Ji Feng, Bai Barbarian Surrender Sincerity", Zhang Zhongwu made great achievements, and was a famous general of the late Tang Dynasty.

In the third year of Dazhong (849), Zhang Zhongwu served as the commander of Lulong Festival for eight years, but died of illness in office, and his son Zhang Zhifang succeeded to the throne in the army.

After his father's death, Zhang Zhifang was proclaimed as the queen of Lu Longliu. Because of the abuse of alcohol, the army was in chaos, and then fled back to Chang'an in the name of hunting. Tang Tingnian and his father Zhang Zhongwu made him the general of Jinwu.

Zhang Zhifang reigned for less than a year, and Zhou Lin died of illness after only one year in power.

In the fourth year of junior high school, after the death of Zhou Qi, the imperial court took Zhang Yunshen as the queen, and progressively inspected the school Situ, Taifu, and Tongzhongshu.

Zhang Yunshen reigned for five years, suffered from wind disease, and his son Zhang Jianhui was left behind.

In the thirteenth year of Xiantong (872), Zhang Yunshen died, and his son Zhang Jianhui stayed behind, and Zhang Gongsu led the state soldiers into Youzhou to mourn. Since Sergeant Lu Long had always respected Zhang Gongsu, Zhang Jian would be afraid that he would attack him and fled to Chang'an. Tang Yizong appointed Zhang Gongsu as the queen, and then appointed him as the envoy of the festival. In the fourteenth year of Xiantong (873), Tang Xizong succeeded to the throne, and Zhang Gongsu was added to the same Zhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi.

Zhang Gongsu was brutal and rude after being a temperance envoy, and often showed people with the whites of his eyes, so he was called "white-eyed Xianggong".

In more than 100 years, Lu Longjun changed thirty-four marshals, especially since Yuan and Zhongxing, Lu Longjun surrendered and rebelled, and completely supported the army and stood on its own in the later period.

Now that Li Maoxun is coming, Li Jing believes that it must be related to the historical record that Li Maoxun plotted a mutiny to seize the throne of Youzhou Jiedu.

After pondering for a long time, Li Jing put down the wolf hao in his hand and said to Liu Xun, who had been waiting for a long time: "Bring the messenger over!" (To be continued......)
