Chapter two hundred and ninety fourth: pacify the mountains
Chapter 294: Pacify Shanyue
On May 18, the 19th year of Qianyuan, the chief general of the Deng army, Yue Fei, commanded more than 100,000 Deng troops under Yongning City, and obtained the help of the Yang family of the Shanyue clan, and defeated the 80,000 main forces of Shanyue.
"I've seen General Yue!" After the war, Yang Tinglin came to Yue Fei as soon as possible. Now he has surrendered to Deng's army. Yue Fei is the largest official in Deng's country here. He must have a good impression. After Yue Fei returns to the court, he can give him a few good words.
Yue Fei looked at Yang Tinglin dressed in front of him, and he really couldn't connect with those big and thick Shanyue people. Except for darker skin, Yang Tinglin was almost the same as those rich masters.
Yue Fei smiled and said, "You are Mr. Yang Tinglin, right?"
"Sir, I don't dare to be a lie. I just read a few books. The general laughed." Yang Tinglin said humbly.
Yue Fei was very satisfied with Yang Tinglin's humble attitude. Although he was able to defeat the Shanyue army so smoothly this time, if Yang Tinglin was proud of his achievements, Yue Fei would not mind destroying him.
Yue Fei said: "This time, thanks to Mr. Yang, otherwise he would not have defeated the main force of Shanyue so smoothly. After returning to Wancheng, I will report the credit of my husband to the king truthfully and ask the king to reward him for his merits."
"Thank you General!" Yang Tinglin was waiting for Yue Fei's words. With Yue Fei's guarantee, the Yang family's actions this time will be valuable.
"Let's go!" At this time, Qin Qiong escorted Yu Wanchun and Meng Dongping over and said, "General, the last general saw the two Shanyue generals, and they must be big men in Shanyue, so they were captured alive." Qin Qiong had never seen Yu Wanchun and Meng Dongping, but seeing that there were so many people around them, they must be big men, so they must be big men.
Yue Fei stared at Yu Wanchun and Meng Dongping, and found that it was the two men led by the Shanyue Army in front of the two armies today, so he could probably guess who they were, so he said, "You are Yu Wanchun and Meng Dongping, aren't you?"
"That's right, General, they are Yu Wanchun and Meng Dongping!" Yang Tinglin, who was standing beside him, hurriedly introduced.
When Yu Wanchun saw Yang Tinglin, he immediately cursed: "Yang Tinglin, you, a villain who forgot your ancestors, actually betrayed Shanyue. I wish I could cut you into pieces."
"Shut up!" Qin Qiong saw Yu Wanchun cursing, so he kicked him and asked him to shut up, but Yu Wanchun continued to curse. Seeing this, Yue Fei asked Qin Qiong to take Yu Wanchun and Meng Dongping down.
After Yu Wanchun and Meng Dongping were taken away, Yue Fei saw Yang Tinglin's face gloomy and quickly comforted him: "Mr. Yang doesn't have to worry about it. Mr. Yang is also for the future of Shanyue. How could a rough man like Yu Wanchun understand?"
"Don't worry, General, I won't care about such a reckless man." Although he said that, Yang Tinglin's face was still ugly. After all, no one would be happy when Yu Wanchun cursed in front of so many people.
Yue Fei smiled and then asked someone to clean up the battlefield. Most of the 40,000 Shanyue prisoners, under Yang Tinglin's persuasion, chose to surrender. Only the Yu family and the Meng family's direct descendants were unwilling to surrender. Moreover, they hated Yang Tinglin to the core. The Yu family and the Meng family had about seven or eight thousand people in total. Yue Fei ignored them and arranged for people to guard them, and then took the generals back to Yongning City.
After returning to Yongning Cheng County Government, Yue Fei said to Yang Tinglin: "Mr. Yang, I wonder how many Shanyue people are there on the mountain now?" According to the information, there are 400,000 or 500,000 people in the mountainous area in the southern part of Kuaiji, and here is generally around 80,000, which means there are at least 300,000 or 400,000 people in the mountains.
Yang Tinglin replied: "Go back to the general, there are dozens of tribes in the whole mountain. In addition to the people here, there are about 400,000 people on the mountain. This time we took all the most energetic men down the mountain. Now there are basically some elderly people, women and children left on the mountain, and there are still ten thousand strong people, responsible for the left-behind tribe land."
Yue Fei nodded. The number was similar to his estimate, so he said, "Mr. Yang is really not to hide it. In addition to destroying Yue Kingdom, I will also pacify Shanyue. However, before I went south, the king said that Shanyue people and Deng people had the same clan and origin, but they just escaped into the deep mountains to avoid the war. Therefore, if Shanyue people were willing to go down the mountain and surrender to Da Deng, I, Da Deng, would definitely treat everyone equally. Therefore, I hope that Mr. Yang can persuade Shanyue people on the mountain to go down the mountain. I wonder if Mr. Yang is sure?"
When Yang Tinglin heard this, he was overjoyed. If he could take the whole mountain down the mountain, it would be a great achievement and his status would be great in the future. So he nodded and said, "General, don't worry, the tribes of Shanyue have always yearned for life on the mountain. It is just that Yueguo discriminated against us, so we will stay on the mountain. As long as the general ensures that he can treat everyone equally, he can guarantee that these people can be taken down the mountain."
Yue Fei smiled and said, "That's good. I will send troops to the mountain with my husband today. If someone resists, I can directly suppress it. As long as the husband can complete this matter, I will definitely ask for me for my husband in person."
Yang Tinglin nodded. Yue Fei wanted the whole mountain to go, so he could not have any fish that missed the net, so he sent troops to the mountain with him. If someone was unwilling to go down the mountain, I am afraid that the Deng army would directly suppress it. However, Yang Tinglin did not think anything was wrong. After all, Deng army was very sincere. If there were still people who were ungrateful, they deserved to die.
With Yang Tinglin's help, the mountain went smoothly. In addition to some tribes who were unwilling to go down the mountain and were wiped out, even the Yu family and the Meng family were willing to go down the mountain. Yu Wanchun and Meng Dongping saw that the tribesmen were all down the mountain and knew that the situation was over, so they also surrendered to Deng's army and helped Yue Fei with Yang Tinglin to resettle the Shanyue people.
Of course Yue Fei would not refuse. The only one of the Yang family in Shanyue was surrendered. If the Yu family and the Meng family were unwilling to surrender, then the Yang family would be the dominant one in Shanyue in the future. This is not in line with the interests of Deng State. Now there is a balance between the Yu family and the Meng family. In addition, Yang Tinglin rebelled this time, he offended the Yu family and the Meng family to death, so Yue Fei was not worried about the Yang family's tricks.
In early July of the 19th year of Qianyuan, after more than a month, hundreds of thousands of Shanyue people on the mountain migrated down the mountain. Yue Fei, in accordance with Deng Sheng's instructions when he went south, personally arranged for people to build villages for Shanyue and allocate land, and divided dozens of Shanyue tribes into three parts, led by the Yang family, Yu family and Meng family. However, because the Yang family took the initiative to surrender and was helpful to the Deng army, the Yang family's tribes and land in Yue Fei and other places were more and better than the Yu family and Meng family, and the Yang family also became the largest clan in Shanyue.
After all this was arranged, Yue Fei led his troops back to the court, and Yang Tinglin, Yu Wanchun, and Meng Dongping were accompanied by three people. After all, they are now the three leaders of Shanyue, so Deng Sheng still has to meet him, which is related to the stability of Kuaiji.
On July 20, the 19th year of Qianyuan, Yue Fei's army arrived in Wancheng. This time, Deng Sheng gave Yue Fei half a year to go south, but Yue Fei completely pacified Yue territory in just over four months. It was really a very fast war. Therefore, when Deng Sheng asked for the merits of Yue Fei, he rewarded Yue Fei and his generals. At the same time, Yang Tinglin, Yu Wanchun, and Meng Dongping, Deng Sheng also met with him one by one, and appointed Yang Tinglin as the Lord of Shanyue to commend him for helping the Deng army break up the mountain and persuaded Shanyue to go down the mountain. At the same time, in order to appease the Yu family and the Meng family, Deng Sheng also gave Yu Wanchun and Viscount Meng Dongping.
After pacifying Shanyue, Deng Sheng got another 200 points of hegemony, and now he has 950 points of hegemony. After completely pacifying Yue, Deng State had the capital to compete with Qin and Zhao, and also obtained tens of thousands of elite troops of Shanyue. Deng Sheng did not incorporate them into each army, but formed an army alone, preparing to attack Shu Kingdom in the future and the southern country.
In the 19th year of Qianyuan, the entire world was basically laid. Zhao dominated Hebei and Central Plains, and its strength was the best in the world. Deng followed closely and dominated the south. Next was Qin, occupying Xiliang and Guanzhong. However, except for Guanzhong, the relatively wealthy areas occupied by Qin, most of which were barren land, so it was difficult to increase its strength for a while.
