: Achievement

When people are happy, they are likely to be very happy. When Xue Chongxun arrives in Shangjun, he lifts up his sleeves like a horse riding a reincarnated horse, and prepares to do a big fight. He said to him in Huaqing Palace what he said to Princess Niang Taiping to avoid a big battle. He is just a nice saying to others. Now he is really dealt with this matter by default. He has sent several letters to explain how the situation worsens. He must be pushed to the army and urged the Ministry of War to mobilize the Guanzhong army to the north.

After more than a month of recuperation, his injuries were almost healed, so he looked like he was working hard to cure and got up early every day. However, he had no soldiers at hand, and there were not many people available in his shogunate group. In fact, there was nothing to do at all. During this period, he could do nothing but wait for news of the surprise attack in Lingzhou and the Ministry of War to dispatch troops to him.

He had nothing to do, and could not play with his wife and concubine... After all, he was a subordinate official, so he was also a member of the gentry class. So he had time to practice martial arts again.

February and March are the bright season of spring, especially when the sun just pops up in the morning, it is very beautiful. A faint mist covers the scene of spring flowers, and everything seems to be brand new.

Xue Chongxun raised the horizontal knife in his hand and looked at the hijab with a rope wrapped around it, and his chest became wide open. He saw Wang Dai and other local officials standing under the eaves, obviously he wanted to get the chance to flatter. These civil servants who are wise and wise are very skillful in flattering and will never say such stupid disgusting words as if they are not wise and powerful. They will find some reason to make the truth and make the sincere flattering sound like they meet a confidant. Xue Chongxun thought to himself: Since others are kind-hearted, they always have to give a chance.

He thought about it, then pulled out the horizontal knife, threw the scabbard into the grass, and started dancing. The gap he stepped out according to the rules, and saw Zhang Dai stroking his beard with interest and nodding slightly, as if he was approving.

At this time, Xue Chongxun waved his sword and sang: "The wind blows the frost and the seaweed wither, the muscles are dry and the flesh is strong, and the Hu horse is arrogant. The Han soldiers are 300,000, and the generals are also in charge of Huo Piaoyao. The meteor white feathers are inserted between the waist, and the sword flowers are Autumn lotus light comes out of the box..."

As soon as the song fell, Wang Dai didn't care about the poetry, and immediately said loudly: "The prince's heroic spirit is as strong as the sky, and his power is approaching Yinshan. He will definitely be able to win the flag and create a great cause that will never be achieved!"

...I didn't think that in two days, the number of "300,000 soldiers" in the poem was not enough. Zhang said that this guy only ordered 30,000 people from the pass to transfer north!

What can 30,000 people do? It might be enough if only Zhang Ren wishes to rebel. In Xue Chongxun's expectation, the Turks will probably also play. Last year, there were at least the elite Tang army and Tuyuhun Iron Cavalry of a total of more than 200,000. Although the Turks were weaker, how could they fight 30,000?

Xue Chongxun immediately questioned the envoys sent by the Political Affairs Hall in the headquarters. The envoys conveyed the meaning of the prime ministers simply: there was no money or food.

The envoy said: "Zhang Xianggong suggested that the King of Jin try to delay the Turkic troops from the south in the posture of repairing abrupt relationships and deploy defenses to the northern part of the inner road of the pass. After this time of incompatibility, once the taxes are entered this year, they will have money and food to raise military expenses and reorganize. If military affairs cannot be delayed, the Political Affairs Hall also thought of two methods: one is to ask the Ministry of Revenue to issue government orders to collect wages and food... But Zhang Xianggong does not recommend this method, which is too disadvantageous. If tax increases, not only will it damage the court's trust and righteousness, but it is also difficult to avoid the powerful and corrupt officials using this to force the robbery and abuse the good people to increase the risk of local ***..."

Xue Chongxun asked, "Is there another way?"

The messenger said: "Add to add green money (paper money)."

Xue Chongxun immediately warned without hesitation: "This method is absolutely not good!"

He fully understood in his heart that there is still a difference between paper money and currency. Regardless of the raw materials and craftsmanship of paper money, it is a valuable thing after all. It must be reserved with a certain proportion of gold and silver. If it is distributed in excess of a certain proportion... it will be thought of how it will be done with your toes. The Ming Dynasty Tongbao died in his later life. It is almost impossible to confuse the people for the second time if they lose their credit. People in the world will definitely hold such things that may not be used carefully. Xue Chongxun spent some effort and time figuring out the classical and simple financial system. He didn't want to destroy it in his own hands.

The messenger looked at him innocently, obviously he was helpless.

"Well, I know it." Xue Chongxun sat on the chair with some loss, frowned and thought for a while, "At least the deputy general and Muchen I want will always come to the county, right?"

The envoy hurriedly said: "General Zhang and others left Chang'an and went north when they were on the mission to be on the rank of the humble position. They are on the way at this moment."

"That's good. When you return to Chang'an, I will handle northern military affairs carefully with the overall situation and find another way."

"Yes, I'll leave for a humble position." The envoy hurriedly took the tribute and said he would at least be scolded if he disobeyed the King of Jin, but he didn't expect that nothing would happen, but he was the best plan to leave early.

... At that time, the county magistrate captured Zhang Chongsi and led thousands of light cavalry to Lingzhou through Xiazhou (Jingbian). When he was approaching his target, he received news that Zhang Ren would rebel and announced that the prefectures and counties in his jurisdiction would no longer obey the "pseudo-political" edicts of Chang'an. Zhang Chongsi felt very bad at that time. Lingzhou was the core of Shuofang Town. Zhang Renyuan, who rebelled against the court, was also the general manager of Shuofang, and he was afraid that he would not let Tang soldiers enter the city easily... It would be fine if Zhang Renyuan had his subordinates in Lingzhou. One was the Han soldiers in Lingzhou, but if they were fewer than two, they might not be really willing to fight fiercely with the official army. The key was that there were many Xianbei people who moved in Lingzhou and had tens of thousands of cavalry.

As a local military general, Zhang Chongsi was completely unaware of the complex political relations, and was unable to figure out whether the Xianbei people listened to Zhang Ren's wishes or the Chang'an court. These nomads were not particularly reliable, who could make it clear? Zhang Chongsi thought to himself: If tens of thousands of people besieged us, wouldn't we die if we ran for hundreds of miles a long distance?

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the land, he was not what he thought. He suddenly came to the city, and then read it openly with the Ministry of War military orders, threatening the soldiers guarding the city to resist was to rebel. In order to strengthen his confidence, Zhang Chongsi shouted loudly: "The King of Jin, who had defeated Tubo for 500,000, has personally led a large army of 300,000 to suppress the rebellion. Those who dare to stop him will be killed without mercy!"

As a result, they easily led their troops into the city, and the Han soldiers in Lingzhou did not resist at all. As for the cavalry of the Xianbei people, they didn't know where they were, and they probably were not willing to bleed and get involved in the civil war in the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Chongsi quickly controlled all the gates of Lingzhou and declared martial law throughout the city. In order to avoid accidentally injuring civilians, the generals had already known that the purpose of this trip was Li Yixun, King Size, so he led his troops to surround the royal palace and quickly captured the slaves in the royal palace to question him. Li Yixun was still in the mansion. He might have never thought that the Tang army, who had just started to quell the chaos for a few days, would not even run to Lingzhou if they did not seize the important passes to the north, and they did not even prepare much...

After Zhang Renyuan issued a document to inform him of his rebellion against the court, the officials in Lingzhou were already unstable. As soon as the Tang army entered the city, they immediately surrendered to most of them and insisted that they did not participate in the rebellion.

After all, Li Yixun was a member of the Li Tang royal family. After the Tang soldiers surrounded his mansion, they did not dare to do anything without permission, nor did they dare to rush in immediately. The generals wanted to wait for Zhang Chongsi to directly order.

Zhang Chongsi said to his generals: "After entering the mansion, only arrest King Size and his ***. No indiscriminate killing of innocent people, nor are they allowed to disturb the people."

When the general heard this, he said in shame: "What should those officials who are suspected of treason?"

"I see that the Lords of Lingzhou have no intention of being a minister. Do they control the government and the city gate without soldiers or blood? Do they dislike Guan Laozi? The Ministry of War secret orders only asked me to attack and arrest King Size, but there were no other orders. Since that is the case, why should I offend the aristocratic families in Lingzhou?"

The general advised with a heartache: "The general only thinks that how can he rise to the top of the world as a good person? This is a great opportunity to show his position. You might as well, just be fine with those who are suspected of being a princess Taiping and King Jin. If someone slanders, the general himself will not be able to escape!"

Zhang Chongsi frowned and said nothing.

Seeing that he was unbearable, some people suggested: "At least, arrest the officials who are close to Zhang Renyuan... or kill them, and brothers can take advantage of this to get some benefits. What's the matter with the people of Lingzhou? Besides, the general was ordered to quell the rebellion, and it would be impossible for us to blame."

Zhang Chongsi said decisively: "The military order only asks us to arrest Li Yixun, so we must not cause too much trouble. I have decided that it is useless to say too much. Lead troops into the royal palace to arrest people!"

At this moment, they suddenly saw fireworks soaring into the sky in the besieged royal palace, and it seemed that it was a fire. Zhang Chongsi hurriedly led his army to the entrance, but the guards of the royal palace did not resist... It was meaningless to resist the regular army armed to the teeth. They looked for the fire and entered a few doors, and they saw a house that had already been lit. The family and servants nearby did not put out the fire, and they were all kneeling at the fire house, and some were crying.

Zhang Chongsi asked anxiously when he felt bad, "Where is King Size?"

Someone pointed to the fire and said, "The prince is inside."

The generals were shocked, afraid that the person they were going to arrest had already been burned to solve the problem. Some people were unwilling to say, "It's better to search the mansion carefully if you want to escape the evil plan."

Since Shangjun used the army to attack from a long distance, if he found out that Li Yixun was let go later, he might be asked to be dereliction of duty. For the sake of safety, Zhang Chongsi ordered the soldiers to search everywhere. However, he searched every corner but found no traces of Li Yixun's survival. At this moment, the generals took the opportunity to get a lot of valuable things. Although it was a violation of military discipline, if the general even had to pursue such benefits, it would make his subordinates dissatisfied.

During this period, Li Yixun's wife and children were arrested in many places, which coincided with the information on the official documents. Seeing this, Zhang Chongsi said, "I'm afraid King Size is really afraid of his own crime, otherwise why didn't he even take his wife and children?"
