Everything that happened on Shannan East Road, down to the smallest details, was quickly sent to Guanbei and presented to Shao Shude who was patrolling Feng and Sheng prefectures for reading.
He basically agreed to the plan proposed by Pei Yuan.
When the Tang and Deng Dynasties followed the Jiedushi, Zhe Zongben served as the governor of Tangzhou. In fact, it would not work if he was not allowed to be the governor. This was originally done by him. For the sake of Tang and Deng, he followed the three states and ruined the situation in the south.
Really irrational.
Zhao Kuanglin will serve as the governor of Suizhou, and he will be released after a while. Zhao Kuanglin and his son are wise and can pay more attention to him.
Tang and Deng Sui is not a big deal. What is really difficult to decide is Fengxiang Mansion.
After Zhe Zongben moved to the town, Fengxiang Jiedushi had to be taken over by Zhe Silun. One discipline and two Jiedushi were too powerful.
It would not work if Zhe was not allowed to serve as the governor of Fengxiang. Fengxiang Prefecture alone has a population of more than 200,000. Although Xingzhou and Fengzhou are sparsely populated, with only more than 10,000 people each, Yangzhou now also has a population of more than 50,000.
Touching Fengxiang is not a reward for Zhe, but a punishment. This cannot be done.
Shao Shude sighed, his old father-in-law was so capable, how could he create such a big situation all of a sudden?
Pei Yuan was a man of great talent. In fact, when he set out to leave Lingxia, the situation was not yet clear, and Zhe Zongben had not yet left Xiaojiangkou. The series of events that followed were all decided step by step by him on the spot.
This is a talent!
Neither Tang and Deng were allowed to follow the Three Prefectures to surrender to Zhu Quanzhong, nor was Zhe Zongben allowed to swallow up the entire Shannan East Road in one go. Instead, he was allowed to stand on the front line and face the Xuanwu Army's front. This was the best result.
Tang and Deng even planted a nail in the three states: Suizhou Zhao Kuanglin, Zhao Cen and his son.
Zhaoxin's army, Li Yanling, held the four prefectures of Jin, Shang, Jun, and Fang. Among them, Shangzhou left Wuguan and went directly to Dengzhou, Jun, and Fang two prefectures could go down the river to Xiangyang.
Isolating Fengxiang, Tang and Deng followed the two Zhejia vassal towns, which can be said to be the key among the keys.
Cheng Rui, the governor of Shangzhou, has already taken office. Wang Yu, the envoy of the Dingyuan Army, also serves as the defense envoy of Wuguan. After he breaks through Fangzhou, he will immediately go north and return to Wuguan.
Li Tong, the former governor of Shangzhou, was transferred to the position of governor of Ningzhou. The matter has been settled and he will soon take up his post.
After the former Jin Shang Jiedu stayed, Li Bai was appointed as the Jiedushi envoy of Pining and the governor of Pizhou.
There is also Qingzhou in Binning Town, and Shao Shude wants to wait for this position.
If Fangzhou Sun Dian voluntarily surrenders, he can be appointed as the governor of Qingzhou. If he does not surrender, there will be no chance. This position will fall into the hands of Zhao Cen.
Yes, it is Zhao Cen of Suizhou. The Zhao family and his son served as the governor of Suizhou and the governor of Qingzhou. This was a reward, an honor, and a surveillance.
As for whether Li Bai would be dissatisfied or what his inner thoughts were, Shao Shude didn't care.
After all, he once defended the city and had some thoughts that he shouldn't have. Although he stopped at the cliff in the end, you can't expect that nothing happened.
Being able to serve as the governor of Pining and the governor of Pizhou is already the best outcome. Don't think too much about Ning and Qingzhou.
"The human heart, human nature..." Shao Shude lay on the carpet regardless of the image, surrounded by endless grassland, and in the distance was a buzzing water wheel. On the surface of the Yellow River, the water tanker was still heading eastward, loaded with supplies.
.
The Feng sisters, one on the left and the other on the right, helped him rub his forehead to relieve fatigue.
Feng Yanqing was sipping the rare Mengding tea under an old locust tree in the distance.
He could also guess what Shao Shude was thinking. Hehe, you look so wise and powerful and have conquered such a large territory. I didn't expect you to be so confused sometimes.
Don’t be suspicious when you employ people, and don’t use people when you are suspicious. What is there to think about?
From the current point of view, Zhe Zong has no trace of backlash. It can even be said that he is dedicated and dedicated.
Tang and Deng followed the three states. What capital did they have to rebel? They were at the forefront and faced the threat of the Bian army. They were seriously short of money, food, troops, and equipment, so they had to rely on supplies from the rear.
Even if he wanted to surrender, would Zhu Quanzhong dare to accept it?
As long as he does not capture Xiangyang, there is no need to worry.
Pei Yuan was a talented person, and he retained Zhao Kuangning's power. Xiang, Ying, and Fuzhou were connected by the Han River, making travel convenient.
As long as the three states of Zhongyi Army and the four states of Zhaoxin Army are stable, what can Tang and Deng do with the three states? It is not just to serve as shields in front of these two towns.
Feng Yanqing took a sip of tea and felt slightly dissatisfied. Since I was promised the post of painting praise by the shogunate, why didn't you come and ask for advice? I've been waiting for a long time.
When I turned around to look, I almost got angry.
Daughter Feng Xuan and niece Feng were rubbing Shao Shude's shoulders and back, one on the left and the other on the right. The three of them were laughing and joking, so happy.
Feng Yanqing couldn't sit still anymore, coughed twice, got up and walked over.
"Your Majesty is here." Shao Shude straightened his robe and said with a smile.
The two daughters of the Feng family knelt down and sat aside and began to make tea.
"Commander, are you worried about something?" Feng Yanqing asked in a roundabout way.
"It's nothing." Shao Shude glanced at the old man and said with a smile, "I was just asking Ms. Xuan what kind of gift is suitable for the elderly lady."
Feng Yanqing was speechless. This son-in-law, uh, doesn't seem to be a son-in-law. Is he really confident, or is it just a big mistake?
"Niang Xuan said that Zhang Huaishen of Shazhou sent many utensils this year, among which there is a gilt plate, which is the most suitable." Shao Shude said again.
Shao Shude was also impressed by the gilt plate.
The silver plate is gilt and has the shape of two conjoined peaches. There is a fox on each bottom of the plate. One fox looks back and looks down, and the other looks back and looks up. It is full of strong Persian style.
The fox, like the dragon, phoenix, rhinoceros, lion, bear, deer, and rabbit, is an auspicious animal in the country and often appears in various occasions. The peach also means "the queen mother sweet peach, eating it relieves labor", and
It can drive away ghosts and evil spirits and prolong life.
This utensil is most suitable as a gift to the elderly, as it caters to people's psychology of "warding off evil spirits," "praying for blessings," and "prolonging life."
The craftsmen in the Western Regions are now very good. In order to sell their products well, it seems that they have studied the market in the Central Plains.
Doing business well, doing business well, how beautiful it is to use knives and guns!
Feng Yanqing felt that these artifacts were not given to the Feng family. His old wife had passed away long ago and had been working as a governor in Taizhou. He had two concubines by his side, but he had never married a wife.
"Zhao Kuangning's father, Zhao Deyi, passed away, but his mother is still alive. When he heard that he was about to celebrate his birthday, he sent someone to deliver some utensils quickly." Shao Shude said, "I am an old man, so these are just appropriate gifts."
Feng Yanqing suddenly realized, this kid!
He thought about it secretly and felt that this was indeed a good idea.
Zhao Kuangning was definitely worried about his new defeat. He sent an envoy to send some utensils to his mother to celebrate her birthday. This clearly expressed his attitude: sit in Xiangyang with peace of mind and nothing will happen.
In this new situation, Zhao Kuangning is worth winning over. In fact, he can slowly penetrate and gradually take over the power of the three states.
Xiangyang’s location is very important!
The navy in Xiangyang is also very important!
Money, food and goods in Xiangyang are more important!
Zhaoxin Army, Zhongyi Army, Tang and Deng followed the three towns, relying on each other and guarding against each other to prevent any one town from becoming too powerful and annexing the other two towns. In the end, it was too powerful to lose, forming a semi-independent separatist force.
But there also has to be a degree!
That is, how to unite the three towns to block the offensive of the Bian Army, and even attack the three states of Ru, Xu, and Cai in the north, but the internal constraints must not be too great, otherwise most of them will be unable to make progress.
Shouldn't a mature and prudent person be placed in charge to coordinate the interests of all parties behind the scenes?
Feng Yanqing looked at Shao Shude, who had turned his head and smelled the fragrance of tea.
The old man couldn't hold himself any longer.
For many years before, I had always felt that it was very embarrassing for my daughter to be kidnapped by a warrior. Just like when the Chao army retreated, every family felt embarrassed and embarrassed when the daughters of noble officials and nobles were left behind.
But after Lingxia left, the old man's view changed drastically. This was no ordinary martial artist!
Feng Yanqing was born as a Jinshi, served as a court official, served twice in the shogunate in eastern Zhejiang, and also served as a local official such as the governor of Taizhou. This official resume can be described as comprehensive. Now that he has encountered such an unspeakable good opportunity, he is also somewhat eager to try it.
.
"Your Majesty has been away from home for many days, how can Lingxia still get used to living there?" Shao Shude looked at this long-lived old man who was almost seventy years old. How could he not know what he was thinking?
But in Xiangyang, he didn't want to send anyone to cause trouble.
He trusts Li Yanling in Jinzhou. Lao Li is nimble in his methods, understands people's feelings, and is sophisticated. With him in charge of Jinzhou, he will have a worry-free journey.
Zhao Kuangning, Xiangyang, just make an offering with peace of mind. You don’t need to do anything. If you really want to say it, then you have to keep the door open and don’t let others annex it.
These two people provide money and food, and may also provide part of the soldiers' money, business, capital, and housing. There are many barbaric people in the four states, who believe in witches and ghosts, and are fierce and aggressive. However, they are extremely poor because of slash-and-burn farming. Maybe they can raise some of them.
Train well in the rear to supplement battle losses on the front line.
Feng Yanqing wants to go to Xiangyang? His motivation is commendable, but the mountains are high and the roads are far away, so don’t get sick along the way.
"Lingxia is no different from Hezhong. You can eat and sleep."
Shao Shude laughed, and Feng Xuan pinched him secretly before he stopped.
After holding Xuan Niang's hand with his backhand, Shao Shude said: "I heard that Wang Chongying vomited blood last month. Do you know whether it is true or not?"
Feng Yanqing almost asked you directly where the news came from? Even the Feng family and the Pei family, the most powerful local snakes in the river, don't know about it, so how do you know?
"I've never heard of it," Feng Yanqing replied, and then he couldn't help but say: "Wang Chongying is not in good health, and everyone in Puzhou knows it. When he suffers the pain of losing his son, it is normal for him to feel miserable and vomit blood. But there are many such news.
It's not trustworthy to catch someone's suspicions. Commander, please don't act on rumors."
"Brothers and brothers respectfully..." Shao Shude smiled in a low voice.
Feng Yanqing shut up.
"If something happens to Wang Chongying, I will go to the expedition myself." Shao Shude said. There was still a sentence left unsaid. I have been waiting for the news of his death until now, and I am very anxious.
And once things change in the river, Shuofang's army will become even bigger.
In the past, we fought once a year, and the pace was very slow.
But the princes of Guandong are fighting every month with extremely high frequency. Now we have to follow their example.
Li Keyong and Zhu Quanzhong’s multi-line operations were often criticized by me in the past. I never thought that one day, I would also...
After entering the entire quagmire of the Central Plains, there is really no way to relax.
The Tang and Deng Suizhe Groups, the Shaanxi-Guoluo-Li Tangbin Group, and the Hedong Group behind them were the places where the three groups concentrated their troops.
What was Marshal Shao's first thought? To sweep through the princes in three ways and establish the world? No, what he was thinking about was how to prevent the collapse of the clan. Li Tangbin was indeed a unique warrior of the country.
"Li Keyong of Jinyang sent an envoy yesterday and promised to help me attack Quanzhong next month. He will attack Zhenzhou next month. However, Kuang Wei threatened to send troops to help, so he invited me to march east from the grassland and raid Hei Che Shi Wei.
, Xixi, cut off Kuangwei’s Tibetan military tribe, then enter Juyongguan and threaten Youzhou. This is asking for a favor from me." Shao Shude suddenly said again: "How does your Majesty understand this?"
Hei Che Shi Wei, Xi Xi and some other small tribes are all allies of Youzhou Town. The Youzhou Jiedu envoys of all dynasties like to come here to recruit Tibetan soldiers, which is cheap and easy to use, and these tribes also fully support Youzhou Town. The reason is
With the Khitan as a formidable enemy, we need to rely on the force of Youzhou Town.
Li Kuangwei must have been anxious about attacking these tribes, and he might have withdrawn his troops.
Would a sworn brother also ask for favors? This is not his style as he is as aloof and arrogant as snow.
