Sun En's rebellion was over, Xu Daofu's plan was thwarted, and the land of Sanwu was temporarily free from swords.

This chaos in Tianshi Taoism was caused by Sun En, and the losses were huge. Hundreds of thousands of believers were lost in one day. How easy is it to recover? Moreover, the reputation of Tianshi Taoism is no longer what it used to be, and it is no more than a rat crossing the street.

Due to the differences, if the Celestial Master Du Zigong had not expressed his stance in time, broke with Sun En, and tried his best to restore it, I am afraid that the Celestial Master Dao of today would no longer exist!

However, Du Zigong did a good deed at least. He succeeded in sending someone to contact Yao Sheng and surrendered secretly to the Ming Dynasty. He also made a small contribution to Xu Zongwen's efforts to completely put down Sun En's rebellion. Seeing from this point, Xu Zongwen would not take advantage of the situation.

What actions does Tianshi Dao take?

After the Qiantang Dynasty was recovered, Xu Zongwen recommended to the court the officials who were vacant in the Sanwu area. Within two days, Xu Zongwen rushed to Wu County in person to choose the location of the cemetery for the martyred Jin generals.

The Sun En Rebellion did not count the soldiers of Sanwu County. The Wolf Guard Battalion and Suzaku Battalion sent by Xu Zongwen alone suffered more than 6,000 casualties, and the number of dead reached an unprecedented 4,000. This was something that had never happened during the Northern Expedition.

The heavy casualties made Xu Zongwen feel extremely regretful!

Investigating the reason, the reason why the Xiaoqi Army paid such a heavy price is due to the terrain in the south. Most of the Xiaoqi Army are northerners. They are the survivors of the Han family who regained their homeland during Xu Zongwen's Northern Expedition. When they suddenly came to Jiangzuo, there were inevitably some

The country was not acclimatized and its combat power was greatly reduced, which is why it caused such a huge loss.

In addition to asking the court for money and food to repair the tomb, Xu Zongwen had no intention of letting the Qiaoqi troops return to Luoyang. He left all the Suzaku Battalion in Shanyin, Kuaiji, under the control of Sima Liu Yu. He was familiar with the soil and water of Jiangzuo and learned a lesson.

Liu Yu's men now have less than 500 dismantled imperial troops. These imperial troops who were mercilessly abolished by Xu Zongwen are somewhat bloody. First, they followed Xu Zongwen south to Qiantang for disaster relief, and now they have contributed a lot in quelling the chaos.

He plans to take these people back to Jiankang and hand them over to Zhang Songzhi, the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army. After all, they are soldiers who have been on the battlefield, so the general rules are different. As for the organization, they can just belong to the commander-in-chief of another department.

After handling all military, political and civil affairs, Xu Zongwen returned to Jiankang City via the Jinling Canal entrance to Beijing.

When they heard that General Zhengbei had returned victoriously from slaying Sun En, the great demon who had brought trouble to the Three Wus, the soldiers and civilians in the capital were all excited and the public sentiment was abuzz!

When Xu Zongwen changed his horse and entered the city, the people crowded to the Qinhuai River to greet him. Lanterns and colors had been decorated inside and outside the Zhuque Gate, and there was a sea of ​​people.

Shangshu Ling Wang Xun, Zhongshu Supervisor Wang Gong, Shangshu Zuopu shot Wang Guobao, Shangshu right servant shot Zhang Xuan and all the civil and military officials in Beijing had already congratulated the event again.

As soon as Xu Zongwen's troops entered the country, the Yuefu triumphal song slowly sounded, and the majestic sound of bells and drums resounded across both sides of the Qinhuai River, causing the soldiers and civilians to be shocked and cheered!

"The general is mighty!"

"The general is invincible!"

"The general is victorious, the general is mighty!"

…

There were thunderous cheers on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Looking at the boundless sea of ​​​​people, Xu Zongwen shouted that the Jin army was mighty and long live your majesty, while trying hard to find the beautiful figure in the crowd that he was thinking about and dreaming about, but he couldn't find it!

In addition to the You Shenwu Army who was harmed by Wang Chen, the Jiankang Jin Army lined up to greet Xu Zongwen from all the remaining battalions. The huge army and civilian team extended from Zhuque Gate to Guangyang, Xuanyang's two south gates, and Zhuque Street everywhere.

They are all the mighty voices of Long Live. Such a grand occasion may not have happened even when the country was first founded!

"Everyone, please go back to the city quickly. How can you come to greet me, Xu Xiao? I really deserve it, I deserve it!" Xu Zongwen dismounted and pulled Wang Xun, the minister, and Wang Gong, the eunuch's eunuch.

, the three people seemed to be living in harmony, which instantly attracted the attention of all officials and all soldiers and civilians.

The common people are praising the harmony between the generals and the generals, and the peace of the country. The sergeants are all staring with envy at the soldiers who have made great contributions to quelling the chaos as they cross the city on horseback. They wish they could have asked Xu Zongwen to lead them south to perform meritorious service earlier!

"It should be done, it should be done. The general is the pillar of the country. He has both civil and military powers. Now that the disaster of Sun En has been quelled for the Jin Dynasty, it is really a great blessing for the country and a great blessing for all the people!"

Before Wang Xun could speak, Wang Gong, the Supervisor of the Central Secretary, was busy praising Xu Zongwen. A few days ago, he even told Wang Xun about Xu Zongwen's recommendation of officials, saying that Xu Zongwen's excessive power was not a good thing. His expression changed so quickly.

Admirable!

Xu Zongwen was just being polite on the surface. He said with a smile: "Uncle Guo, you have given me too much praise. This is the responsibility of a lower official."

Hearing this, Wang Gong retorted Xu Zongwen in an arrogant manner: "Zongwen, you are too modest! There was Xie Yuandu's defeat before. If you hadn't turned the tide and fought with all your strength to wipe out the evildoers, Sun En's disaster would have been difficult to predict.

Such great achievements can be compared with those of Tao Weigong back then!"

Tao Weigong Tao Kan, when Wang Dun and Su Jun caused trouble for Jiangzuo, Wen Qiao was the first to send troops, and Tao Kan was the first to respond. Later, the two of them joined forces with Xi Jian, Yu Liang and other knowledgeable people to send a large army to conquer Su Jun.

, help the Jin Dynasty and save the country.

"Xiaguan's contribution is only a small one, and I dare not compare it with Tao Gong. Thanks to the officers and soldiers' service, the people's support, the Tianshi Sect was divided between the north and the south, and the Sun thief was unpopular, this great victory was achieved. The credit cannot be attributed to Xiaguan alone.

." Xu Zongwen and his colleagues blamed the Southern Expedition, and their humble remarks greatly changed many people's impression of Xu Zongwen!

Wang Xun and others said no more, and in a blink of an eye everyone arrived at the gate of Jiankang City. Xu Zongwen returned to the military formation, escorting Sun En and others to follow the large group of people and move forward slowly.

"Enter the city!" Xu Zongwen shouted. The faces of all the soldiers in the army froze, their ears pricked up, and they clenched their weapons, ready to accept the next order at any time.

Zhang Si held the banner high and looked solemn. When they were about to arrive at Jiankang City, the officials from the temple immediately came to greet them. Zhang San shouted: "Line up and enter the city!"

After the dismantled Forbidden Army arrived in Jiankang and left, the Wolf Guard Battalion, which had been crippled, immediately started to march in order. The square formation of several hundred people moved in unison and made a sound. Every step that fell was like a heavy hammer, shocking the audience.

Everyone's heart.

They shouted loudly with the rough and powerful voices unique to soldiers: "Drive out the barbarians and restore China!"

They have all experienced life and death, and have gone through the test of blood and fire. They are all real warriors, with a murderous look on their faces.

"It is a great blessing for our country to have such a strong army!" Among the officials, many knowledgeable people were filled with emotion. As for what others thought, it is unknown.

When the phalanx of the Wolf Guard Battalion arrived in front of Da Sima Gate in Taicheng, the Emperor's guard of honor appeared on the city tower. Under the canopy with red as the top and black intertwined, stood the young Emperor Sima Dezong, and

Hundreds of civil and military officials were arranged on both sides.

As the faint shadows of people and horses began to appear in the distance outside the city gate, the gongs, drums and horns arranged by the temple began to sound.
