Chapter 178: Warrior's House

"Zhu Han and Wang Fan's sons left Beijing one after another. Although there were ministers such as Liu Renmao, the minister of the Privy Council, in the court, in charge of the war, it had completely declined. Wang Boqian, Liang Fuzhong, Yang Yongdong, Yan Shiyong, and Li Ji and other peace factions had the upper hand. When they heard that the Huhu went south again in October, they even fantasized about being able to tie the river with the Chihu people and use this to firmly advocate a quit and seek peace."

"At that time, in addition to King Jing, many ministers in the court and the country sent letters to advise Emperor Tianxuan to leave the capital to temporarily avoid the enemy's troops; Liu Renmao, the head of the Privy Council, also wrote a letter to the official family to pass the imperial edict Hu Kai, the defense envoy of Caizhou, Liu Xian, the peace envoy of Jinghu North Road, and the peace envoy of Huainan West Road, and Hu Zhixiang and others led their troops to serve the king. At that time, the troops and horses in Hubei, Huainian and other places had moved, but Wang Boqian, Liang Fuzhong, Yang Yongdong, Yan Shiyong and others insisted on drifting the river and begging for peace. They were worried that when the Chihu people heard the news, they sent troops to cross the river. Not only did they dissuade the officials from leaving the capital, they also issued an edict to stop Hubei, and the troops in Huainian went north."

"At the end of October, the court still dreamed of cutting Hebei and land in Hedong, and could quit the army. Wang Boqian, Liang Fuzhong, Yan Shiyong and others were sent as envoys to cross the river and pass the imperial edict to defend the city and the defenders of Zhucheng on the north bank of the Yellow River. Liang Fuzhong went to Weizhou to pass the imperial edict, and killed the soldiers in anger. Wang Boqian and Yan Shiyong heard the news and fled to the King of Lu in Weizhou, and did not dare to mention the matter of Xiancheng anymore. Instead, they wrote to Yang Maoyan and others to the court, advising to ask the King of Lu Zhaoguan, the Grand Marshal of Hebei to recruit soldiers to prepare for the enemy. The enemy soldiers surrounded Weizhou, and Wang Boqian, Yan Shiyong and Yang Maoyan surrounded the King of Lu and crossed the river and fled to Qizhou."

"On December 13th, it was a heavy storm. Thousands of enemy soldiers rushed to Nanxun Gate, and arrows were like rain. The defensive soldiers appointed by the government could not resist for a moment. They hurriedly abandoned their armor and fled to the city tower. The city gate was so easily trapped in the enemy. At night, all nine gates in the outer city were attacked by the enemy. At that night, countless residents of the outer city were killed. At this time, the kings, princesses, concubines and other royal families, including the concubines and princess of the King of Jing's Mansion, had already fled into the imperial city in a hurry. The government hurriedly sent King Ji Zhao Xu and his subordinate minister Li Ji and others to the Jin army for peace. But there was no place to quit at this time.

The possibility of begging for peace? On the 19th, the enemy soldiers generally controlled the inner and outer cities and surrounded the imperial city. The fire in the city spread endlessly, and the defeated soldiers hid in the alleys and snatched them in a random way. Thousands of houses were burned down, and the people fled without a door. Women painted their faces with gray ink and tried to survive. It was a terrible sight. On the 27th, the official family ordered the opening of the gates of the imperial city to surrender, and asked the enemy to enter the imperial city to peek at the imperial palace to be a marriage bride. Later, in addition to hundreds of girls, musicians, craftsmen and other people from all kinds of people came to offer the enemy soldiers, the official family also ordered the families of officials in Hedong, Hebei and other states to send all the families of the officials in Bianliang to the enemy camp.

"The enemy soldiers entered the city to burn, kill, rob, and rob, for a month, and the corpses in the city were in full swing. On February 26, the Chihu people sent envoys to the city with the false edict of the deposed emperor, and abolished the official family as common people. They also escorted more than 3,000 officials, empress, Yan, Yue, princess, and other princesses. Liu Renmao, the head of the Privy Council, hanged himself in his house on the same day. At the end of February, Wang Qiyong, who had been in prison before and had not been tried, and the surrendered generals and officials agreed to elect Li Ji, the subordinate minister, to be the emperor, and the state of Chu was established, and the vassal of Chihu. In addition, Yue Hailou led the front troops into Bianliang at the end of February."

The captive soldiers had tens of thousands of troops who were closely controlling the cities near Bianliang and the capital. Zhou Jing went straight south from Luliang Mountain and sneaked to Bianliang to spy on information. He didn't have the chance until mid-March. He brought the few hidden secret lines back to Chu Mountain and reported to Xu Huai many details before and after the fall of Bianliang City.

Xu Huai sat behind the desk with a calm expression, and casually wrote down several important events after the fall of Bianliang. It can be seen that the Chihu people were also surprised by the easy capture of Bianliang City.

Where should we go after occupying Bianliang? The Chihu King's tent should have serious differences, so it delayed until the end of February before deciding to depose Emperor Tianxuan.

The introduction of surrendered minister Li Ji to become the new emperor also proves that the Chihu people had not yet had the confidence to annex the entire Dayue at this time, and they first supported the puppet regime in Hehuai.

This is not much different from Xu Huai's previous prediction that Chihu people will focus on digesting Hedong and Hebei provinces and counties.

This also means that the Huaihe River will not face huge military pressure directly. At least the main force of the cavalry of Chihu people will not advance directly to the southern line for the time being. Even if Yue Hailou leads his troops into Bianliang, even the Chihu people may make Yue Hailou command Bianliang surrender troops, and it will not pose much threat to the southern line in a short period of time.

Yuehailou is three heads and six arms. Bianliang has 80,000 to 90,000 surrendered soldiers and generals like a stray dog. How could he easily integrate it?

This is why Xu Huai strictly controlled the scale of the expansion of the Tianxiong Army. Otherwise, the Tianxiong Army would have no major problem directly expanded to 20,000 people or even larger.

On the one hand, Xiangyang currently guarantees that 500,000 stags of money and grain will be allocated to Chushan every year, but it is still not enough to raise an elite army.

On the other hand, when Xu Huainan returned to Mount Chu, he had about 7,500 war-captured soldiers, but among them, nearly 3,500 soldiers captured by Tianxiong's army and Jianrui absorbed from the rebel army in the resistance rebels of Luliang Mountain, accounting for almost half.

Many of these strong people have not yet recovered completely, but they are more precious than the young and strong recruited from the refugees.

Although before the Chihu people invaded the south, the Tianxiong Army, Xuanwu Army, Xiaosheng Army and other imperial guards had too many disadvantages from top to bottom, such as being afraid of the enemy, causing trouble, robbing the civilian households, deceiving the superiors, and greedy for food and wages, all of them were enough, but after this catastrophe, the ills of most people had been removed, and the remaining more were innocent hearts.

&n                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              �

Xu Huai didn't want to simply break up these men and horses and incorporate them into Tianxiong's army.

He thought of taking advantage of the rare breathing moment, he would arrange for them to settle down in Chushan as soon as possible.

If the generals and soldiers who were born in the imperial guards were lucky enough to survive in the Taiyuan Guards, especially their young children, they had basically practiced martial arts since childhood and danced guns and rods, which were rare and precious military potentials in Chushan's subsequent future.

Those generals and soldiers who were sent to the army who were born in a refugee or violated the ban and were exiled to the army according to the old system of Dayue. The moment they were exiled to the army, they were disconnected from their original families. Even if they were concerned about the young family, they probably had fled before, and most of the remaining ones were lonely, Chushan would arrange marriage as soon as possible.

Marriage is not to help them marry their daughters, but they should arrange for them to marry women who fled to Chushan with their children as much as possible; just as they could arrange for more than 4,000 foreign households and children who moved from Shuozhou to marry, and the subsequent surrendered soldiers who were arrested in Gongxian County.

Therefore, Xu Huaihui, based on the Township Office, organized this group of troops and soldiers nearby, and in one to two years, they can integrate into the Chu Mountain as soon as possible, so that they can become the elite seeds that the Chu Mountain camp can rely on in the future, rather than diluting it directly into the Tianxiong Army's camp now.

Of course, the existing township departments in Chushan are almost full.

In the past year, the cofferdams were built and the newly added fields in the reclamation of slopes were almost all granted.

Even if there is still a margin for excavation in these places, many people had severely insufficient land before and needed further replenishment of arable land.

However, even if the "empty but the reality" strategy is adopted, only the (main inspection department or military camp for pure military defense purposes is set up in areas outside Qingyiling, Zhouqiao and Jinniuling, the inner encirclement will still maintain the establishment of the two counties of Chushan and Xinyang.

In Xinyang, there are mostly main land houses on both sides of the Shixi River, but the north and south wings of the Shixi River, as the eastern foot of the southern ridge of Tongbai Mountain, still have a large number of slope fields and valleys that can be reclaimed.

The next focus of the work of the Battalion Commander's History Institute is to combine the establishment of a township department in Xinyang and the resettlement of the family and other matters to promote the rapid progress.

There were countless refugees from the capital of the capital and the Nanchong of Song Dynasty, Chen, Xucai and other places, and were mainly evacuated through Pingjing and Wusheng Pass to Jinghu North Road.

Chushan is just a little larger than this, and it really cannot accommodate too many households.

Even households in Queshan, Zhenyang, Shangcai and other places north of the Huai River must move to the south of Tongbai Mountain.

"The Sima Academy of the Xingying Camp has set up a map of Cao Yi, and military intelligence spy. Uncle Wu recommends you to participate in the military and take charge of the matter. Yan Xiaoyi and Zhang Xiongshan are your assistants. In addition, the new samurai school has a shortage of staff and requires you to serve as a teacher for a while," said Xu Huai and Zhou Jing, who had just returned from Bianliang. "Now at this critical moment, there is no time to let you go back and have a few days with your family. You are ready to take over the work."

Xu Huai was initially extremely disappointed with the court and intended to set up Yueyu Tower to control lurking, intelligence spy, etc., but at this time he supported King Jing ascended the throne and set up another Yueyu Tower outside Xiangyang. The matter was leaked and he was easily suspicious.

Of course, intelligence spy and other matters are indispensable, but Xu Huaihui officially set up a new Cao in the Sima Courtyard to take charge of the matter, so Yueyu Tower will not need to be mentioned again.

The pastures, mines, horse herding, workshops and other matters under Zhufengtang, as industrial and mining production developed within the Chushan Camp, will be merged with the affairs of reclamation and construction under the Changshi Academy, and will be led by Shi Zhen, Su Laochang, Xu Wuliang, Xu Sheng and others.

However, the original Zhufengtang is in Biyang, Xiangyang and other places for transportation, selling weapons, armor, weapons and iron tools. The caravans and courtyards set up by Tongbaishan Products will continue to be independent of the Changshi Academy and will be led by Liu Qiong'er.

At the beginning of the Great Yue Dynasty, the martial arts school was established at the Wucheng King Temple, trying to establish a complete system for training and selection of military officers. He even issued an edict to establish a samurai school in the prefecture to teach martial arts and military tactics.

However, the Great Yue admired culture and suppressed martial arts too much. Although the imperial court promoted martial arts, no one was willing to enroll. The martial arts were abolished in a very short period of time.

Xu Huai is now the chief manager of the military commander and governor of Shenzhou. As part of the affairs of the state court, the state school must be responsible for the work.

The ancestral law was added to the Wushizhaishe House to train and select middle and lower-level military generals.

The generals and soldiers from the south, along with Chen Zixiao, Zhang Xiongshan and others, left the Khitan, and the dozens of Han generals who returned to the south, all entered the first group of warriors.

The most important basic skill of basic military generals and military officials is to learn to understand or even draw geosams, and be familiar with military spy. Zhou Jing and Shi Zhen’s son-in-law Jiang Xie and others are currently teaching at the Warriors’ Vast Hall.
