It is already September and the Double Ninth Festival is approaching.
The Wuwei, Tiande, Tielin, and Feilong armies that had been reorganized conducted large-scale training at their respective stations.
The Wuwei Army is in Heqing, the Tiande Army is in Wuzhi, and the Guide Army is in Mengzhou. These are the defense forces deployed on the front line. After being replenished, they will be fully equipped with more than 23,000 troops on foot and on foot.
The six major inspection envoys, the second division of Hengshan's Tibetan soldiers with 8,000 infantry and cavalry, and the Feilong Army with 8,000 mounted infantry (less than 2,000) were deployed in Hanoi as a second-line counterattack force. As long as the Bian army crossed the river, the troops would be stationed under the fortified city.
, this highly mobile force will counterattack in a timely manner and strive to keep the Bian Army.
But most of them would not be able to play a big role. It was difficult for Zhu Quanzhong to make up his mind in a short period of time and organize another attack with a scale of 100,000 people.
The troops and horses of less than 40,000 infantry and cavalry were all under the command of Gao Renhou. He himself was based in Hanoi and served as the commander of all troops and horses in the Huaizhou camp. Lu Huaizhong was appointed as the camp commander and commanded the three front-line troops. Fu Cunchen was appointed
When the camp was at Yuhou, Cai Songyang was appointed as the vanguard and beheading envoy, and Qi Bizhang was appointed as Youyi's attack envoy, each performing their respective duties.
The Heweifan people who attacked Xiashibao suffered heavy losses. Later, they sent some strong warriors to Chishui, Wuxing, and Guzhen armies. Originally there were 10,000 households with a population of more than 30,000, but now there are still 4,000 households with a population of more than 20,000.
, all relocated to Hanoi County, Huaizhou.
The 10,000-household Hebei Dangxiang, because it is a farming society, has a relatively large number of people, about 50,000 people, who are still heading south to Heyang by boat, car or simply on foot.
These people were originally going to be resettled in Jiyuan County, but as the situation changes, they will be dispersed to Xiuwu and Huojia counties in Huaizhou. As a result, including the original remaining population, there will be more than 14,500 households in Huaizhou.
, more than 72,000 people—if you don’t count those lost during migration.
In Jiyuan County, Mengzhou, the first batch of more than 2,000 people from Li Renyu's tribe were resettled, and the second batch came with more than 2,000 people from Tuoba Renfu's tribe. Now the third batch of Li Renyu's tribe came.
On the road again, there are more than 3,000 people. In total, there are 3,000 households with more than 8,000 people. Including the original remaining population, there are more than 12,000 people in Mengzhou.
The population was still a bit small, so Shao Shude set his sights on Tonghua Town again.
At the same time, the population of Huazhou is relatively dense, with less land and more people, and the people's lives are not very comfortable. Shao Shude plans to move part of the population to Lingzhou to increase the proportion of the local Han population, and then move part to Heyang to fill the large blank land here.
The initial plan is to send 10,000 households to Lingzhou and Heyang each. Most people are not very happy, and coercive measures may be used.
"The population in Heyang continues to increase. This year, we are all relying on our military rations. Next year, we will have to wait until their autumn harvest. I don't have much hope for this first year's harvest anyway. I planned to start collecting taxes the year after next.
, I think it’s disgusting, and I will probably have to continue to be exempted from tax for another year.” After everything was done, Shao Shude left Heyang and returned to Anyi. Before leaving, he chatted with Song Le while walking.
In Heqing County, there were more than 80,000 grains and beans seized in Heqing County. In the north, more than 100,000 grains and beans were seized, totaling less than 200,000. After the war, Wuling Road has stopped transporting grain, and Zhiguan Road has also stopped transporting grain.
It's being shipped, but the cost is too high.
Over at Liaowu Wharf, after the Bianjun navy withdrew, they smuggled 100,000 dendrobium, millet and wheat over, but this stopped again as the activities of the Bianjun navy intensified.
However, there was still a workaround. Marshal Shao ordered the grain ships to be mixed with the imperial canals, and carefully transported grain to Liaowu, and more than 100,000 yuan were transported.
But this is not enough.
With 39,000 cavalry and such a large population, at least 800,000 grains and beans must be prepared for them to consume, and some additional hay may also need to be harvested, so that they can sustain it.
Of course he can afford the food. The water conservancy project in Jinjiang is there and the agricultural foundation is very good. The problem is how to transport it. The people in the river have to suffer. They transport food through Zhiguan by land and continue to smuggle it by water until
Next year's autumn harvest will allow Heyang to breathe a sigh of relief.
But as a result, Shao Shude's reputation among the people in Hezhong will decline again. In the past few years, it has changed from friendliness to indifference, and it is likely to turn into hatred in the future.
"Commander, if Heyang can restore the grand scene of criss-crossed streets and wild cattle and sheep, and the people will feel the virtue of the commander-in-chief, it will be beneficial." Song Le stroked his beard and smiled and said: "It can even benefit future generations of Beibei.
.”
"Oh? What's the benefit?" Shao Shude asked with a smile.
"Heyang is the northern barrier of Luoyang. During the Tianbao period, there were 600,000 people. If the three-field system is implemented, 800,000 or 1 million people can be supported." Song Le said: "In the future, the general will found the country and live in the divine capital.
, with a fundamental important place like Heyang nearby, it will be as stable as Mount Tai."
"Who said I want to make Luoyang the capital?" Shao Shude laughed angrily.
He understands what Song Le means. After Heyang is built, if there are hundreds of thousands of households, this will be his basic base. If Luoyang is the capital, he will have no worries in the north and can sleep peacefully.
"Actually, it's not just Heyang?" Song Le continued: "Henan Prefecture and Ruzhou are almost the same as Baidi. Ze and Lu are not rich in household registration. As the saying goes, a blank sheet of paper is easy to paint. Meng, Huai, Ze, Lu, Ru
, if the five prefectures of Luo are obtained, they can move the people and adopt the three-pot system. The people will benefit from it and feel the virtue of the king. Even if some people are unruly and raise armies to cause chaos, they will not be able to invade these six prefectures.
.The king has a great reputation in his hands. As long as the capital is safe, he can slowly mobilize his troops and destroy them one by one."
These were mature and prudent words, but Shao Shude didn't like to hear them.
Looking at the succession of the five generations, basically everything went wrong in the capital, causing elbow and armpit problems.
Li Cunxu entered Luoyang, which was Zhang Quanyi's base. Even if he brought some Hedong sergeants, how many could there be? Twenty thousand? Thirty thousand? Most of the Forbidden Army of the Later Tang Dynasty were the surrendered troops of the Later Liang Dynasty, and their loyalty to Li Cunxu was really questionable.
.
As for local officials, generals and people, they may not have any favorable impressions of Li Cunxu if they appreciate Zhang Quanyi's virtues. Once something goes wrong, they will just sit back and watch, not fight to the death.
Later Jin and later Han Dynasties all entered Bianliang from Hedong. When crossing Heyang, it was smooth as if they were walking on flat ground.
In the later Zhou Dynasty, Guo Wei raised his troops from Yecheng and entered Huazhou. The journey to Bianliang was smooth and there was no problem, but if he wanted to reach Luoyang, it would be troublesome. If there were soldiers and horses from prefectures and counties who persisted in resisting and relied on the dangerous terrain to hold on,
If Guo Wei cannot be attacked for a long time, it is hard to say what will happen to him because he lacks a righteous name.
This shows how important the support of the people is! In the fifteen prefectures of Guanbei, would you like to ask if anyone is willing to rebel?
But Marshal Shao just didn't want to hear it. He looked around and said, "Zhang Quanyi is appointed as the military commander of the Fengguo Army. What do you think about this?"
"Commander, you should ask Chen Changshi about this matter, not me." Song Le replied.
"You won't be the governor of Heyang for the rest of your life. I want to hear your opinion." Shao Shude said.
Song Le didn't seem to hear the other meaning of this sentence. After thinking about it carefully, Fang said: "This is Quanzhong's invitation to win people's hearts. Quanyi has the talent to care for the people. Let him sort out Cai, Shen,
The civil affairs of the three states are naturally at your fingertips."
The envoy of the Fengguo Army originally only governed Caizhou. This time, Zhu Quanzhong brought the newly acquired Shen and Guangzhous into the jurisdiction of Cai Town. The prototype of the "Little Huaixi Town" that was separatist and fought against the imperial court was formed.
Among these three states, Caizhou has been stable since the defeat of Qin Zongquan. Apart from the recent wars, Shenzhou and Guangzhou are actually relatively stable. Zhang Quanyi was appointed as the military commander of the Fengguo Army, so he probably gave up military power.
Just take care of civil affairs and give full play to his advantages in this area.
News came a few days ago that Zhu Quanzhong gave Zhang Quanyi a Bianliang mansion, two beautiful concubines, and some treasures. He also married him to the Jiang family and married a sister of his close confidant Jiang Xuanhui. He left the town of Caizhou and served as a military governor.
make.
This fierce operation was actually done for other people to see.
After the hasty retreat of the Battle of Heqing, the situation of the Xuanwu Army was actually not ideal. There was a slight turmoil among the people inside, and they urgently needed to be sorted out.
Zhang Quanyi's family was "trapped" by thieves, but he himself returned to Bianzhou with "righteousness", so he was naturally rewarded heavily.
Don't go to Luoyang, that dangerous place. Just go to Caizhou to sort out the civil affairs. Hu Zhen resigned from the title of Xuanyi Jiedushi and was transferred to the Youguo Army Jiedushi, leading Henan Prefecture, Ruzhou and Hua Shuai.
, Quan Zhong will personally lead it.
This personnel transfer has to be said to be very wonderful. The tendency of Huazhou Mountain has been eliminated, Zhang Quanyi has left his hometown in Luoyang, Hu Zhen is still facing huge military pressure, and the only one who benefits is Quanzhong. But he still makes a big fanfare
Zhang Quanyi, who was "rewarded generously", was so good at showing off that no one could tell him that he was wrong.
"When I attacked Quanzhong, I originally wanted to see if I could recruit Zhang Quanyi to surrender and quickly march to Luoyang. Now it seems that it is difficult." Shao Shude sighed: "That's all. In battles, we should not be opportunistic. Now the Xiaoshi Fort has been
Well, the only one left is 'Hangu Pass'."
"Hangu Pass" refers to Xin'an County, Hangu Pass in Qin, Hangu Pass in Han Dynasty and the so-called Hangu Pass in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. They are actually located in a valley road. It depends on where you build the city. Hangu Pass in the current era,
It is located in Xin'an County, where Hu Zhen originally stationed his troops.
"Commander, the Tangzhou side needs to pay more attention to it, maybe send troops to reinforce it?" Since Shao Shude asked him to be the counselor of the military aircraft, Song Le was not polite and suggested: "Xiangzhen is dilapidated, and there is a gap with Du Hong of Ezhou.
, it was necessary to keep troops on guard, and it was difficult to support Tangzhou. Zhao Kuanglin of Suizhou defended Pingjing Pass, but then he was repeatedly attacked, and the defense was very difficult. Tang Deng and Deng followed the three states, and they had already experienced Huangchao, Qin Zongquan's rebellion, and their household registration was not abundant.
Now we have been plundered twice by the Bian people, and we are exhausted. We rely entirely on gold merchants for payment. The commander-in-chief should pay more attention to this road."
Shao Shude calculated the troops at hand.
This year we moved to Tielin. The families of the Wuwei Army and the Second Army moved to Jinjiang and Feng'an. The families of the Tiande Army are already mobilizing and starting to move, but they probably have to wait until after the Chinese New Year.
The speed is still too slow! Shao Shude plans to ask the prince's household to provide some goods, food and meat, and to bring over one or two additional family members of the army next year. He prefers the Shunyi Army led by An Xiuxiu and the Tianxiong Army from the martial arts department.
Both armies are resting in Lingxia this year, and they will be ready to move next year.
The former has five thousand infantry and two thousand cavalry, while the latter has all infantry, totaling ten thousand people.
After thinking about it, it was decided that Zang Dubao and Niu Li would lead the Tianxiong army south to reinforce Tang and Deng Sui, while the Shunyi army would reinforce the northern front.
"I want the Tianxiong Army to dispatch after the Spring Society Festival to reinforce Tangzhou. How about that?" Shao Shude asked.
"The Tianxiong Army Zang Jun is brave when he is brave, but he lacks strategy. The deputy envoy Niu Li is mature and prudent, and his loyalty is unparalleled. He is both coarse and fine, and he is qualified for a big task. With these two leading the army, great things will happen. At that time, we can
The Baoyi Army will be transferred back." Song Le replied.
"No, the Baoyi Army will stay on the right wing for one more year." Shao Shude said: "If we don't fight more with the Bian Army, how can we make progress?"
Song Le laughed. Let's just say it was a waste of foreign troops. Why bother? But we also had to be prepared for a mutiny by the rebel army. Zhe Zong already had a headache.
"Commander, there is one more thing. Do you need to arrange the battle situation in Shuzhong?" Song Le asked with a straight face.
"I was thinking about this too." Shao Shude kicked away the stones on the ground and said angrily: "Zhao Jian is really useless, even if he attacks Maozhou, he will be defeated. Now that the Qiang people have become more powerful, they are invading Longjian Mancun.
, Li Yuan has attached himself to Li Maozhen, and Zhu Mei is in a state of internal turmoil, and is in dire straits. At present, the troops closest to Shu are Heyuan and Jishi. I want to send one of them south, and Zhuge Zhongfang will send another 5,000 troops to join the dragon.
Jian assists the defender. Don't distract too much energy in Shu. My goal next year is still Zhu Quanzhong. This cannot be shaken. I will fight with him to the end."
Yesterday, someone suggested fixing the update time in the evening. I thought about it and tried to make it after 5 o'clock, when there are the least people.
