Chapter two hundred and seventy-two cutting

Zhao Kuangyi was still very depressed.

Back to Kaifeng Prefecture, he picked up a fishing rod and said to Chen Congxin: "Let's go to Hezhou for a walk."

The two came to Hezhou. Affected by the floods and rising grain prices, there were fewer tourists on Hezhou than in spring. Only fewer tourists were still like weaving. After boarding the Fifth Ring Bridge, the ones that came to him were no longer the desolate Xihezhou, but rows of luxurious and tall buildings. Most of them were sold out, including Song Jiu's three sisters, two restaurants and an inn. The actual profits of building shops were greater, but they didn't, so they rented the rest together.

The original plan to be a residential area was to set up many ditches and small bridges, carrying countless flowers, plants and trees, but they did not destroy them. They were built by them, covered by green trees and connected by flying tiles, and the scenery was very beautiful.

Before the two of them got off the bridge, they rode their horses and continued to go south. From the last guide bridge, there was still an open space to the south. In addition to flowers, plants and trees, there was also an artificial lake, which had a more beautiful scenery. This was left to be a residential area, but the area was reduced several times, leaving only a quarter of the original planned area. I don’t know how much a house will cost in the future.

The houses have not been built, and because of the good scenery, many tourists come here to rest.

Zhao Kuangyi put down his fishing rod and started fishing.

There were fish in the lake, but people were forbidden to fish. When the guard saw it, he hurried over and prepared to stop him. But when he spoke, he saw the fisherman, so scared that he retreated and did not dare to speak. Zhao Kuangyi smiled, waited for the fish to take the bait, and said to Chen Congxin: "I just said in the palace that Chu Zhaofu had limited abilities and was elected as the deputy envoy. The emperor said that Song Jiu could be chosen. I said that it was inappropriate, and the emperor insisted on his own opinion."

"The second king, I'm afraid it's not as good as you wish. Zhao Xianggong would not let Song Jiu serve as the deputy envoy of the Third Division." Chen Congxin said. If Song Jiu entered the Third Division, he would not be a judge, but a deputy envoy. With his ability, coupled with the conflict between Chu Zhaofu and Zhao Pu, the Third Division would be able to escape the control of the Central Secretariat. However, Chen Congxin was very pessimistic and believed that it was impossible to achieve it.

"You let me do it and go to Fuyi. How long will it last!"

“There will be a result soon.”

“Tell me.”

"If the Secretary of the Communist Party of China cooperated, the food crisis would inevitably pass. If the Secretary of the Communist Party of China does not cooperate, it will only solve the crisis in the capital... All the northern prefectures and counties! Your Majesty cannot see that Yao Shu's death was due to personal death. He also made a mistake. Let Mr. Zhao seize the handle. But what about the public misunderstanding? "

"Yes. Why didn't I expect, but in that case, how many people will suffer from it."

"Chu Zhaofu is not capable. If the Secretary of the Central Committee does not cooperate, such a result will surely occur. Unless the Second Kings fully assist Chu Zhaofu, the Second Kings, can you be worth doing this?"

"If that kid Song Jiu knew the inside story, he would hate me so much."

"The two kings, there is light and darkness in this world. Some people walk in the darkness, and some people walk in the light, and each has their own functions."

"I understand," Zhao Kuangyi said. He did not intend to let Song Jiu go deeper. Maybe with Song Jiu's temperament, he would feel disgusted and not worth it. It's good.

There were many fish in the lake, and soon I caught a big carp. Zhao Kuangyi said, "Go to Sister Song Jiu's restaurant to get some wine and seasonings, and ask her to send another cook."

"Yes," Chen Congxin smiled. The two kings were still unwilling to accept it. Since he opposed it, the emperor would use it more, because he would bother Sister Song Jiu and be the one in the palace. I believe that this matter will be spread to the palace soon. It may not be effective.

My sister doesn't know all this.

She is afraid of Zhao Pu and Zhao Kuangyi now, so she has always been afraid, so she has to let a chef come over, bring seasonings and tableware, and make fish sausages for Zhao Kuangyi (sashimi, one of the favorite foods of Kaifeng people in the Northern Song Dynasty. After the invasion of the Jin people and Yuanmeng, their eating habits changed and they gradually disappeared). Zhao Kuangyi and Chen Congxin sat by the lake, looking at the beautiful scenery, dipping seasonings, eating fish sausages, drinking soju wine, and after eating, the chef cleaned up, the two went back swaggeringly.

Zhao Kuangyin heard it and just smiled.

A decree was issued first, with Pan Yin and the two of them magistrates Guangzhou and the commander of the Maritime Transportation Department. Wang Ming was transferred to the deputy commander of Guangnan Transportation. Pan Mei and Yin Chongke worked very hard in Guangnan. Zhao Kuangyin's anger gradually subsided and everything was about to go back to normal.

But another official position was set up, and Xu Jiuyan was appointed as the judge of the transshipment. This position was similar to the judge of the Sansi Department or the judge of each state. It was mainly to supervise and check the accounts. If used well, it would be a helper of the transshipment officer. If used poorly, it would become a burden of the transshipment officer. However, with Wang Ming's reputation and ability to be civil and military, Xu Jiuyan would not become a burden if he continued. This edict began to prepare to transfer Song Jiu back.

But at this moment, something happened.

...

Previously, the leader of the Ding tribe sent an envoy to Beijing, but Zhao Kuangyin did not receive him at all. You are the emperor, why should you pay homage to me? The envoy returned to Jiaozhi.

Pan Mei also sent envoys to Hualu City to intimidate the Ding tribe, quickly remove the emperor's title and change it to the emperor's title, otherwise our army would come in person. This is a rebuke without objection. The Qin Dynasty managed Lingnan, including the northern part of Jiaozhi, and to the Han Dynasty, it expanded to the central part of Vietnam in later generations, covering three-fifths of Vietnam's land, and once expanded to the southern and southern parts of Hengshan. Later, Linyi took advantage of the danger of the Central Plains of the Southern and Northern Dynasties to erode the Rinan County, and thus became the boundary of Hengshan. It was mainly too far away, and it was mostly tropical jungle areas. Therefore, the Sui Dynasty destroyed Linyi and withdrew its troops and restored the country. When the Tang Dynasty was in power, the king also came to sing and dance for Li Shimin. What else could he fight? Therefore, the Tang Dynasty was still dominated by Hengshan. Even during the Southern Han Dynasty, Jiaozhi was nominally belonging to the Southern Han Dynasty.

When the Central Plains was strong, the ministers were sent directly to govern. When the power was weak, some people were called kings in Jiaozhi, but no one dared to claim to be the imperial system.

The leader of Ding's troops thought that the Song army was coming, so he immediately increased troops to garrison in the north. He sent scouts to inquire about the news, but heard something.

The barbarians rebelled last year, and Rongzhou rebelled again this year. Partly because of the result of Song Jiu, the areas west of Guiyi should not be thought about. There are barbarian areas, with great power, backward transportation, and difficult governance. Therefore, we focus on the areas east of Yigui, including the southern part of Rongzhou to Leizhou Peninsula, and the Qinjiang Delta.

There is a reason for Song Jiu's idea, because most of them are plain areas.

In the past, the Central Plains dynasty ignored Lingnan and was not strong in development. There were no decent seawalls. There were many typhoons, and some were strong, which could send waves to the shore for dozens of miles. Therefore, the seaside areas were mostly deserted and crowded swamps. But in fact, this was the first-class fertile land.

But there are many barbarians in this area, and there are also Han people. Han people are more cruel than barbarians. They are all powerful landlords and do not accept the kingdom. If you want to govern, you must promote the kingdom, run education, build water conservancy roads, and promote advanced production. This is obviously impossible. There is no money or anyone!

But there is a simple way, that is, to reach the road. When the road comes, the army can easily reach it. If the army does not accept it, they will suppress it. If the army does not accept it, they will suppress it. If the prisoners are surrendered to cultivate the road, and encourage the people to cultivate the road. Simple intentions can also be seen. In addition, a small number of remaining fake Han officials continue to be dissatisfied and fled to each other. Nearly 20,000 people formed local soldiers to participate in the rebellion. There are several planting sites in Hezhou. When the chaos arose, the students and the old farmers fled to the city together.

The news reached Guangzhou, and Pan Mei had trained some local soldiers at this time.

Last year, when I suppressed the rebellion, I did not take it seriously, but only sent Zhu Xian to lead the imperial soldiers and the local soldiers to Rongzhou. When the Ding army sent a scout to inquire about the news, the two sides were fighting. The Ding army was relieved, and Guangnan was not cured, let alone our Jiaozhi.

The rebellion was quickly defeated by Zhu Xian. This time Pan Mei did even more ruthlessly, and captured all the soldiers who participated in the rebellion and sent them to the seaside to build seawalls. It was not considered persecution. Once the seawalls were built, they formed surrounded fields, which were far richer than in the mountainous areas. It doesn’t matter if they were poor and rich. If they were separated from the deep mountains and old forests, these people could be under the jurisdiction. Like the Wuling area, the actual tribes of the barbarian tribes were not strong, but because the mountains were high and lush, it was difficult to conquer and could not conquer them, they could not force them to transform into the king, and then they would continue to live their previous life of slash-and-burn farming.

He forced all prisoners of war to build a road together and build a village. As long as it was a rebel, the people of the village moved to the seaside or Qinjiang Bay together. Some cruel things happened in the middle, but there was no way. The household registration of the entire Rongzhou was less than 5,000 households, but tens of thousands of thousands of people came in a rebellion. Pan Mei was in Guangzhou. If these brave soldiers and generals were not in charge in the future, major problems would happen. Some tribes saw that the situation was not good, so they fled to the depths of the mountains. The main reason was that there was no way to communicate now, and these people were not clear about it. He fled to this escape.

How much benefit can we continue to be exploited by those barbarian leaders? However, if we escape to these places, these tribes will disappear sooner or later. We will build roads one after another and fight one after another. The remaining tribes saw that the situation was not good, and they walked out of the mountains and expressed their sincerity to the court. They spent a lot of money, but since then, from the east of Guizhou Liuzhou and Yizhou, in addition to the depths of the five ridges, they were basically under the jurisdiction of the court. Because many barbarian tribes were counted out, the Guangnan Ministry of Revenue became more than 21 households, adding more than 30,000 households.

The process was very long. It only lasted for twenty days to suppress the rebellion, but it lasted for several months after the war, and it was all used to build roads and relocate the people. Most of the rebellious tribes moved out and the main roads were built. The Song army ended the conquest. Then five thousand troops composed of impeachment and local soldiers arrived at Taipingzhai. The leader of Ding was panicked. While sending people to ask for peace, he mobilized the army again to station on the border. The Song army also mobilized some sea boats to move to the Baiteng River.

The leader of Ding's army followed the footsteps of the Song army, so he set up another defense line in the Baiteng River and laid wooden stakes.

But it is not the Baiteng River at all. The reason why the Southern Han Dynasty sent naval troops to the Baiteng River when it attacked Jiaozhi was because Jiaozhi Yuanzhou City was on the Baiteng River. It is a big river north of the Fuliang River, but it is much smaller than the Fuliang River. In the middle of the journey, there was a Fuliang River flowing in. Jiaozhi Guzhou City was southwest at the junction of Baiteng River and this Baiteng River. Therefore, the Baiteng River became larger and was not very large. The water flow was similar to the river surface and was easy to set up ambush.

The Southern Han Dynasty failed, and later the Yuan Dynasty came again. At that time, the capital of Jiaozhi was moved to Hanoi. It could enter from the Fuliang River, but it was too far away from the army. At that time, Jiaozhi was not the current Jiaozhi. It had a long system and the country, and its strength was strong. It seemed that it could not be divided too far away from the army, so it was defeated here again.

But at this time, the Ding Dynasty could not be called a country, and even the Langsan region had not been taken down. Its main scope was in the two deltas of Baiteng River and Fuliang River. The Song army slowly advanced southward and arrived at Langsan. The many scholars of Langsan were watching on the wall.

The two armies began to fight.

It was directed by Yin Chongke himself.

Jiaozhi has little morale, and some are not afraid of death, and some are afraid of it. Although there are few people, Pan Mei does not have many people entering Lingnan, but only one thousand Song army killed more than 200,000 soldiers and horses in the Southern Han Dynasty. The Song army is very morale, including local soldiers.

After more than a year, Guangnan's finances began to improve. Several big men wanted to make contributions, but they continued to invest. Although they improved, they could not hand in as much as they could, and continued to work hard. However, the lives of the people were indeed changing, and various benevolent policies also made the people return to their hearts. This is the heart of the people, and this is morale. This is not enough, mainly the command ability of the commander. Moreover, after more than half a year of careful preparations in the southern expedition, they took advantage of the opportunity of trading between the two countries and sent scouts to disguise themselves as merchants, and almost made a clear understanding of the main roads, mountains, rivers and terrain. It was far from the blind battle in the Southern Han Dynasty.

After several battles, Ding Chao was defeated one after another, killing and capturing as many as 7,000 or 8,000 troops. The leader of Ding's troops was even more afraid and almost sent all the troops to the north. Then he used the terrain to build a mountain village defense.

The leader of Ding Bu was not fully aware of the strength of his opponent. Even Song Jiu suspected that even if he gave Pan Mei a wrong strategy, it would turn into a seamless plan in his hands. The two armies were in Lang San, and Pan Mei did not plan to launch a surprise soldier. There were ships on Qiongzhou Island, which were civilian ships, and were ready to carry property. The ships gathered at the mouth of the Baiteng River together, and still sent small boats to drive out the stakes. When the scouts said that the troops behind Jiaozhi were completely empty, the Song army suddenly boarded the ship and arrived at the Fuliang River. It was August that the river water level was high and the tide was large, and it drove towards the Dunjiang River with the tide. The leader of Ding Bu was hurriedly ordered the people from the front line to mobilize the people in the Dunhe River to prepare for the stakes and ambush. The vanguard Li Chao led his men to suddenly emerge from more than a dozen small merchant ships disguised.

He fought tragically in front, and the ships arrived slowly behind him. A large army was handed over to Wang Ming and stationed on the north bank of the Fuliang River. As long as the Jiaozhi army returned, Wang Ming and Yin Chongke attacked each other from north to south, and could even destroy Ding Chao, and the rest followed the Dun River to Hualu City. Hualu City was an empty city at this time. Seeing the arrival of the Song army, they surrendered.

Then Wang Ming and Yin Chongke watched Ding Chao's army from south to north, preparing to make dumplings. Pan Mei and Song Jiu brought their troops to gather all the Jiaozhi ships in the rear, and ships of Guangnan were also sent over and began to load cargo and the people.

Guangnan lacks money and people, and there is no labor, so it is still impossible to develop. A ship of supplies and the people were escorted to Guangzhou, Qiongzhou and Qinzhou in Leizhou, Wang Ming went north and Yin Chongke went south. The two armies continued to press forward when the morale of Jiaozhi was disintegrated. The leader of Ding's army continued to force him when he saw something was wrong and fled to the west with his close friends. However, the Song army suffered a lot of losses. Many soldiers were sacrificed in succession. Many mountainous areas and tropical rainforest areas were still unable to conquer. The cost was too high. Moreover, the more sacrifices were made, the more unexpectedly, and the Song army succeeded. After Ding's army fled to the mountainous areas, he unified Jiaozhi in recent years, ended the endless wars, and some policies were quite popular. Therefore, some people used the complex terrain to start organizing primitive guerrilla tactics. The large number of enemies were not very worried, but this small number of enemies gave Pan Mei a headache.
