After living idle in Chang'an city for a few days, when Daxingtai returned to Bafu, Li Tai and his family left Chang'an and returned to Huazhou.
The two Cui Qian brothers also went to Huazhou together. After Li Tai completed negotiations with the Bafu and requested orders, they went to their respective posts. Of course, the prerequisite was that the Jingzhou strategic plan must be completed.
The current atmosphere in Huazhou City is not good, especially the newly established military headquarters are shrouded in a haze due to the previous tragic defeat in Heluo. Many soldiers are worried that Daxingtai may continue to use troops, and there is a fear of war.
Emotions spread among the troops.
However, the rear army military mansion where Li Tai was in charge was an exception. How tragic the defeat of the Heluo armies was reflected in their brilliant achievements. The soldiers who followed Li Tai on the expedition not only captured a large amount of valuables on the battlefield.
After returning to Kansai, they were all promoted to official positions, and they felt very proud for a while.
These sergeants were licking blood from their swords and dawdling with their heads in the air. Even if they understood that the beauty of trees would be destroyed by Lin Feng, few of them would obediently abide by the golden mean. After returning to camp with their goods, they naturally had a lot of fun.
Enjoy.
Not long after Li Tai returned to the military mansion, he was told by the generals that their rear army city was now so famous that the cattle and sheep passing through it did not dare to move forward. During this period, people inside and outside the city were grilled or steamed, and only the animals were destroyed.
There were thousands of cattle and sheep, and the smell of blood spread for miles, and there was an annoying nouveau riche atmosphere both inside and outside.
If you just enjoy it for yourself, even if it's a bit publicized, that's it. The most important thing is that these sergeants also have a spirit of sharing.
Most of them are local soldiers recruited from all over the Kansai region. It is inevitable that some relatives and friends from the same hometown will join the army elsewhere. Now that the scenery is triumphant, it is only natural to show off one's gains while helping relatives and friends.
But this directly aroused the dissatisfaction in the hearts of other military sergeants. We all risked our lives to fight as soldiers, so why are there such huge disparities in their fortunes? Of course I am right to work hard in service and practice, and to go into battle to kill the enemy.
Yes, the fault lies with those mediocre and incompetent generals!
Therefore, many sergeants simply came to the rear army's military mansion and camps, wanting to join the rear army. At first, it was sporadic, but recently it became more and more fierce, and teams of hundreds of people occasionally appeared.
The battalion soldiers fled, and the governors and generals of the various military mansions were extremely worried. While restraining their troops, they also came to the rear army military mansion to accuse and hold them accountable.
If this happens only occasionally, Li Mu and others won't take it seriously. If you can't manage your own soldiers, why do you have the nerve to hold accountable here? How shameless!
But now this situation has become a common phenomenon, with people from almost every military government defecting. Naturally, Li Mu and others do not dare to deal harshly with those who are held accountable, for fear of offending the public.
Li Tai was a little dumbfounded when he learned about this situation. He did not expect that being too popular would lead to trouble. All armies have their own rules for military affairs management, and of course he could not let his subordinates take in these sergeants who had come to join them.
If these people defected to him, then... he couldn't accept them. Although he could afford to support them, it was always a bit unjustifiable that the team that the boss had finally managed to pull up would then be packed up and collected by him.
This situation occurred not only because the rear army had outstanding achievements in this war, and the soldiers were treated well as a result, but also because the Bafu Central Army had not been newly established for a long time. These soldiers had not yet fully realized the seriousness of the military order, and still
It has a bit of a powerful private song and a loose style of state, county and township groups.
In the final analysis, the responsibility for this matter still lies with Li Bi, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army!
After some discussion among the subordinates of the Communist Party, Li Tai made this conclusion, and then ordered Commander Shi Luteng to compile a book of accusations and accusations made by various military offices in the past few days, and sent them to the Chinese Army Office with the following appendix:
He was afraid that the sergeants would be separated. If Li Bi didn't come forward to resolve the matter as soon as possible, he would pack up the soldiers who came to surrender!
As for how Li Bi would solve the problem, that had nothing to do with him. If Li Bi couldn't solve it, he wouldn't mind taking his place as the Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Army.
Next, Li Tai patrolled the city and camp. He summoned the soldiers who had accompanied him on the eastern expedition and reprimanded them. No matter how rich you are, don't burn buns like this. Why don't you pay them back in front of a group of hungry wolves?
, simply looking for excitement! Showing off like a villain, how can you follow me to create more brilliant achievements!
After being reprimanded, these soldiers finally learned to restrain themselves a little, and at least remembered to move the stoves back to the walls of their own courtyards when they started eating again.
After sorting out the accumulated matters in the military mansion, Cui Qian also finished writing the Jingzhou strategy. After Li Tai read it through and discussed with Cui Qian to make slight modifications, he took this strategy to Taifu to see the general.
Taiwan, ready to work hard to pursue this ministry.
In the main hall of Taifu, Daxing Taiyu Wentai heard the visitor playing Li Tai's invitation, and he immediately ushered the people in. When Li Tai came to the hall to see the ceremony, he smiled and said: "Bo Shan came just in time, Fang Yu
I’ve called you to discuss the matter.”
While he was talking, he asked Li Tai to sit down at the table temporarily, and then asked the officials present to briefly describe to Li Tai what was being discussed at the moment.
Although Li Tai withdrew his troops and returned to Kansai, the chaos in Henan has not ended, and various responses and actions are still ongoing.
A few days ago, Hou Jing learned from Li Tai that after the Western Wei army was defeated in Heluo, he did not dare to stay in the country anymore, but led his troops south to Yuzhou.
After all, the Western Wei Dynasty only took advantage of the situation and got burned. Hou Jing is the traitor enemy that the Eastern Wei Dynasty deeply hates. Now that the troubles elsewhere have been solved, the next step is to gather troops and continue to eradicate him. So Hou Jing also
They did not dare to take advantage of the shrinking military strength of the Western Wei Dynasty and go back on their word, marching north to seize the territory previously transferred to the Western Wei Dynasty.
At the same time, Nanliang was also taking frequent actions. Not only had the Yang Yaren tribe previously dispatched to assist Hou Jing arrived in Xuanhu and successfully joined forces with Hou Jing, but the Jiankang court of Nanliang also officially issued an edict for the Northern Expedition in early August.
Xiao Yuanming, Marquis of Zhenyang of the clan, and Xiao Huili, King of Nankang, led the armies in the Northern Expedition.
By the way, in June, when Li Tai and other armies were still stationed in Heluo and fighting fiercely, Nan Liang took Xiao Fan, the king of Poyang, as the general to conquer the north, and took advantage of the emptiness of Jingzhou in the Western Wei Dynasty to lead an army to attack Rangcheng. But because of
Quan Zhongzun led his troops to the south and joined forces with the powerful locals in Jingzhou to defend themselves. Xiao Fan returned to Hefei after his attack failed, and his official title was changed from General Zhengbei to General Anbei.
After listening to this, Li Tai couldn't help but sigh that Xiao Bodhisattva was really bored during this period. He was full of ambitions and wanted to vent his ambitions, and he worked hard everywhere for fear of being idle in one place.
As for the Eastern Wei Dynasty, it was relatively calm. After recovering the three cities of Heyang and ending the war in Heluo, there were no major actions. The main thing was to mourn Gao Huan.
However, although the outside world is lively, it has nothing to do with the Western Wei Dynasty, which has just experienced a major defeat. Even if Yuwentai is ambitious, he will be limited by his strength and dare not have any big plans. After all, what Li Tai has seen
The chaos in the military affairs of the military government was just one of them. For example, the Yuan and Wei clans' ready-to-make moves in Chang'an were also hidden dangers.
What is now facing the Western Wei Dynasty is still an internal problem, that is Wang Sizheng of Henan.
Hou Jingnan went to Yuzhou and joined forces with Nanliang Yangyaren's troops. He officially declared his surrender to Nanliang and broke his previous agreement to surrender to the Western Wei Dynasty. Wang Sizheng was naturally not polite and used his troops to occupy the territory Hou Jingnan had transferred. The so-called
The seven states and twelve towns do everything they can.
Theoretically speaking, the Western Wei Dynasty's intervention in the Eastern Wei Dynasty was not completely fruitless. On the contrary, because of Wang Sizheng's enterprising spirit, he became the biggest winner so far. The vastness of the territory he expanded can be said to be the leader of all military operations since the founding of Kansai.
.
But theoretically speaking, the regime of the Western Wei Dynasty was the legal system of the Northern Wei Dynasty. A theory without the strength to support and practice it is just a mirror image and a vain attempt.
Although Wang Sizheng nominally occupies such a large territory, due to his strength, the actual occupation is still very limited. It is difficult to effectively cover a large territory with just a few strongholds.
Now that the Western Wei Bafu's army has been newly defeated, it is difficult to provide Wang Sizheng with effective support in time. Moreover, even if Wang Sizheng is sent for reinforcements, it is still unclear whether Wang Sizheng is willing to accept it.
The issue currently being discussed in the hall is the opinion on where Wang Sizheng should establish his town. Originally, after the other forces withdrew, Wang Sizheng had already taken control of Xiangcheng, but now he has gathered all his troops in Yingchuan and officially proposed to him.
The imperial court wrote a letter requesting that its administrative office in Taiwan be established in Yingchuan.
"Boshan, you have just returned from that hometown, and you must have a deep understanding of the situation in Henan. According to your opinion, is it feasible to implement the public administration of Taiyuan in Yingchuan?"
The discussion in the hall had not yet been decided. When Yu Wentai saw Li Tai arriving, he asked him again.
