Chapter 10 Incorporation
After half a year of preparation, the Chihu people convened the Huleri Conference (tribal conference) in Mobei this spring.
Although it is said that at the Huleri Conference, the Chihu tribes had great controversy over the inheritance of the Khan throne by the eldest prince Kuossa and the fourth prince Kusigou, and no definite news has been heard back yet, it is expected that this summer will not be delayed.
The possibility of fighting among Chihu is not high for the Khan position.
This means that the main force of the Chihu cavalry is likely to return to the Hehuai battlefield this winter.
Therefore, no matter what, including Chushan, Dayue must do everything possible to suppress the Pingdong Jing bandit army before this winter, and turn its vision back to the Qinling-Huaihe River defense line.
As for the current preparations for the Nancai Zhaodan Department and the Jingnan Jingbei Division, there will be no big problems before this winter, either severely damaged or recruited Jing thief army in the Dong Dynasty.
The Nancai Zhaodan Department can of course also attack the Tiger Village step by step, and then assemble the main force of the Shui Infantry Army in the Linjiang area south of Sangchi Lake, and put stronger military pressure on the main force of the bandit army entrenched south of Jingjiang and west of Dongting Lake to force them to surrender.
Unfortunately, the court has not yet agreed to transfer Nanyang and Jingxiang into Mount Chu.
If the main forces of the bandit army led by Sun Yanzhou and Hu Dangzhou were forced to surrender to the Jingnan General Office headed by Ge Boyi, they would likely fall into a deadlock in which the court temporarily tolerated Chu Shan to control Jingxiang but refused to admit it.
If you don’t want to form this deadlock, you must reduce the scale of the thief army that Ge Boyi can recruit as much as possible, and at the same time eliminate the hidden dangers after the thief generals such as Sun Yanzhou, Hu Dangzhou and others accept the recruitment. Chushan needs to fight a large-scale victory in Jingjiang and Dongting Lake.
Shi Zhen, Xu Wuli and others stayed in Changlin Camp for seven days. In addition to summarizing and reviewing the gains and losses of various affairs over the past year, they also discussed in-depth discussions on the deployment of defense lines this autumn and winter this year.
Seven days later, Shi Zhen, Xu Wuli, Guo Junjian, Fan Yong, Pan Chenghu and others left Changlin Daying, while Zhou Jing rushed to the Hekuen with Xu Huai's handwritten letter.
In the early years, the Hejiu was a low-lying land between Bailu Lake and Jingjiang. Every April and May, when the water in Jingjiang surged, some fragments of sand appeared out of the water, as if cranes were flying deep between Jingjiang and Bailu Lake, hence the name.
Dongzhou Village entered the village built in the Linjiang area at the beginning of last year, mainly distributed near the Hexiu.
After autumn and winter, Dongzhou Village began to build a Datang dike, and moved the main village from the narrow Dongzhou Island to east of Hexiu. At the same time, it dug deep and wide a stream that had flowed through Hexiu, and used it as the main waterway of Bailu Lake and Jingjiang.
The new main village is built next to the Hejiu East Dike, and the city wall is built with rammed earth. It is four miles away, which is not much bigger than the old village.
However, in addition to the general village, Dongzhou Village has built hundreds of villages of varying sizes in the past year, and is distributed in the Linjiang area south of Bailu Lake.
With the support of the Nancai Zhaodansi, Dongzhouzhai started to organize the villages since October last year. A total of more than 80 miles of dikes along the Jingjiang River and Bailu Lake were built. The first Hezuo Dakou stretched 24 miles from east to west and south, and a depth of 78 miles from north to south to 145 miles.
About half of the villages that have been built have landed in Hexue Dawan.
Although the Hejiu Dawan and the surrounding areas have only been reclaimed for more than 70,000 mu, it is still pitiful compared to the number of villages that Dongzhou Village has accommodated more than 110,000 at this time. However, the wheat and other crops sown in winter have entered the harvest season one after another, and the joy brought to the villages is unspeakable.
Since Chihu invaded the south, a large number of people in Hehuai and other places have been forced to leave their hometowns and flee their hometowns, but they have not been properly resettled after going south. Over the years, I don’t know how many people died of hunger and death on the roadside. Almost everyone is hungry and struggling and suffering in the displaced. No one is not skinny or ragged.
Even though Dongzhouzhai was able to get some money and food funding from the Nancai Zhaoqian Department in the later period, it was limited. Most people could only get one or two bowls of porridge steamed with mixed wild vegetables every day.
At this time, how can you not be excited to see that you have hope of truly survival?
"Chushan is determined to expel the Hu barbarians and recover the Central Plains. Zhou Jing came here under the military order of the Marquis of Jingsheng this time, and invited the heads to join Chushan to work hard to expel the Hu barbarians, rather than asking for merit and rewarding them. What Jingsheng Hou can promise is that, first, you have done everything you have to make a living, and you will not blame them in the past. Second, you have the ability to command military officials, Chushan will also treat the people equally and choose talents and will not be different from other Chushan generals and officials, and will not be suspicious or suppress them. Most generals and officials in Chushan, including me, Zhou Jing, have very low origins, and even a few people from the grassroots. If you have a reputation today, it is nothing more than licking blood from the knife. I believe that after joining Chushan, you will not feel inferior."
In the Juyi Hall of Hexue Town, Zhou Jing looked at Jiang Ang, Jiang Xiong, Zhang Cong, Zhao Shan, Liu Fujin and other leaders, as well as Jiang Ping, who had joined Dongzhou Village since last winter, and said,
"Dear leaders, if anyone has different ideas, please speak out openly..."
Jiang Ang Zhensheng said, "Mr. Xu has any instructions, so I would like to ask Zhou Zongjun to show me. How could we not follow each other? Who dares to have any opinions? I chop him up with one knife!"
"Yes, Mr. Xu, but if you have any instructions, please ask Zhou to show me!"
Jiang Xiong, Zhang Cong and others had already regarded themselves as people from Chushan, and at this time they all spoke out for Zhou Jing to give direct instructions.
Dongzhouzhai has expanded nearly twice since last autumn and winter. It has basically absorbed the surrounding refugee forces. There are also seven or eight refugee leaders with high reputation, strong abilities, and large-scale refugee scales, among which Dongzhouzhai is the leader.
Although they had long had psychological expectations for accepting Chu Shan’s incorporation, they never thought about any conditions. Especially Zhou Jing made it clear that he would not let them form an army alone, so he had to act directly by following Chu Shan’s orders?
However, Dongzhou Village always thought that it was dominated by Jiang Ang, Jiang Xiong, Zhang Cong and others. Seeing that they had already expressed their opinions without hesitation, the other leaders who were born in refugee leaders were shocked and could only express their obedience at this time.
"The Dongzhouzhai area is immediately established in the jurisdiction of Dongzhouzhai. The Xihe two capital inspection department is equipped with Zhang Xiong and Jiang Cong as the inspectors of the capital, in charge of construction, settlement, garrison, and oral registration. The former Dongzhouzhai troops were immediately reorganized into the sixth, seventh wing of the rear army of the Tianxiong Army and the third wing of the Nancai Shuijun Army. Jiang Ang, Jiang Ping and Liu Fujin were appointed as the commander-in-chief and Du Yuhou. The three-box water and infantry soldiers were temporarily incorporated into the Hexue camp and unified jurisdiction, with Jiang Ang and Jiang Ping as the chief and deputy commander, Zhao Shan was appointed as the military officer and the Ma Infantry Academy, and the military disciplines of the camp were promoted. I will also temporarily stay in Hexue to serve as the military position in the Senate..."
Xu Huai planned to set up a new county around Bailu Lake, but the imperial court had not yet let go, so he could only set up another Donghe outside Changlin and Xihedu Inspection Department was responsible for water conservancy, settlement, garrison and civil affairs.
In addition to the Changlindu Inspection Department, the Donghe and Xihedu Inspection Departments also had to set up seven or eight inspection departments, including the commander of the three-box personnel of Hexue Daying, the generals and team leaders of the middle and lower-level military officers. In addition to most of them, they also used refugees and leaders of the water village, and some were the workers of the Dongzhou Village to help Dongzhou Village build the gang and the gang dikes and generals brought by Jiang Ping for more than a year.
Overall, everything is still based on stability during the transition period.
For so long, the Military Information Department has also had a deep understanding of the situation of refugees and water camp leaders in Dongzhou Village, and at least it can ensure that there will be no abnormal changes in a short period of time after the inclusion.
"...If you have no objection to the orders of the Marquis of Jingsheng, the Marquis of Jingsheng will enter the Hexue Camp tonight to direct the battle against Chishanzhai. At this time, please ask all the military marquis to keep the military envoys absolutely confidential and must not leak any news!" Zhou Jing said again.
"What? Mr. Xu is going to Hexiu personally to direct the battle against Chishan Village? Am I listening to the foreshado?" Jiang Ang had no objection to accepting Chushan's inclusion, but he did not accept the inclusion at this time. Xu Huai had to rush directly to Hexiu from Changlin Camp on the north bank at night to direct the battle against Chishan Village. He stared at Zhou Jing in shock, all of whom he suspected that he had heard the foreshadodo.
"Jiang Junhou, you didn't listen?" Zhou Jing said, "If it goes well, try to launch a strong attack on Chishanwan the morning after tomorrow..."
…………
…………
The Military Information Department did its best, but it could only ensure that Jiang Ang, Jiang Xiong, Zhang Cong and other leaders did not have any problems, but it was impossible to understand the details of the 110,000 people in Dongzhou Village.
It is hard to imagine that Sun Yanzhou and Hu Dangzhou did not put a nail into Dongzhou Village or a spy liner into Dongzhou Village.
Therefore, the key to fighting against Chishan Village is fast and lightning-rushing. It is necessary to ensure that Sun Yanzhou, Hu Dangzhou and others are arranged to be suspicious in Dongzhou Village. Before the news can be spread, the stakes have already launched a surprise attack on Chishan Bay.
Therefore, upon learning that Jiang Ang and others had accepted the inclusion, Xu Huai ignored everyone's obstruction and took the grain transport boat that crossed the lake this month as planned to meet Jiang Ang and others.
Jiang Ang and others did not directly announce the change of flags and flags below. In the afternoon, they summoned the main military officers to test them first, spread the news and lay the groundwork, and transfer or control those who were strongly resistant.
Jiang Ang was shocked when he learned in the Juyi Hall that Xu Huai had arrived on a grain ship and there were only twenty or thirty guards accompanying him.
Under the arrangement of Zhou Jing, Jiang Ping and others, a team of trustworthy people were mobilized to block the vicinity of Juyi Hall. Jiang Ang and others also sat in Juyi Hall waiting. Jiang Ping led people to welcome Xu Huai into Juyi Hall secretly.
Seeing Xu Huai wearing a blue shirt and walking into the Juyi Hall in a leisurely manner, Jiang Ang, Jiang Xiong, Zhang Cong and others were truly convinced at this time, and they also felt that Xu Huai truly trusted them.
Other refugee leaders heard Zhou Jing’s announcement of changing the flag and changing the flag in the afternoon. They were shocked and still had a lot of worries in their hearts.
They were worried that Zhou Jing would say it well, but it is difficult to predict what kind of future they would have after they were reorganized into Chushan.
At this time, seeing that the Marquis of Jingsheng Xu Huai was protected by twenty or thirty guards, he could almost say that he rushed to the crane cave alone, and the biggest worry in his heart quietly disintegrated.
Under the leadership of Jiang Ang, everyone saluted Xu Huai in the Juyi Hall.
"Everyone is a son and daughter of the world, and in the future, he will also be the robes to fight side by side for the barbarians. There is no need to be polite," Xu Huai sat in the middle of the Juyi Hall, signaling Jiang Ang and others to sit down and talk.
"Zhou Jing came over to tell everyone that I was going to attack Chishanzhai. Everyone was shocked, right? Do you think I was a bit cruel?"
"How dare, how dare?" Jiang Ang would definitely not admit that he had such an idea, and quickly waved his hand, "Hu Dangzhou's grandson was too stupid. He wanted to annex Dongzhou Village before, and he would have to deal with them even if he had the chance!"
Xu Huai said with a smile:
"Don't need too much scruples. If you have any thoughts in your mind, don't dare not say them. The king of the enemy was assassinated before, and the main force of his cavalry shrank to Yanshan and Yinshan. The Hehuai was relatively calm, giving us a chance to breathe. But this winter, the situation in the Hehuai will become tense again, and there is no time for us to breathe slowly. Putting aside this point, the turbulent situation of Dongjing will continue to delay. How many people will starve to death this autumn and winter? I believe that
The position is clearer than me. I believe that Jiang Junhou has confirmed the fact that Hu Dangzhou secretly colluded with the Hu barbarians. In order to avoid the large number of villages in Chishan Bay being deceived by Hu Dangzhou and other small groups of people, and urged them to surrender before winter, it is necessary to fight hard. You may think that this battle may kill many innocent people and deceived people. However, if one person is killed and ten people live, what choice will you make? I have led Chu Shan Jianrui to fight to the death on the battlefield over the years
Up, countless robes are lying in pools of blood, and the soldiers of Chushan also have fears and DGT wars, and they abandon their robes and ignore them. I never show mercy in my execution of military laws. Can these people all be said to have died because of me? How can I lead my troops to the battlefield again and again? It’s nothing more than that I firmly believe that we fight to the death to save more common people and avoid more people from suffering from military battles. This is to stop fighting by fighting and killing by killing. I have always emphasized in Chushan that we treat
The robe should be as warm as spring, and treat the enemy as cruel and ruthless as the severe winter. As long as the soldiers and horses in Chishan Village do not surrender for a day, they will always be the enemy of Chushan. No matter whether they use tricks or killing, there is no need to show mercy. In the past, Dongzhou Village and you, Jiang Junhou, were enemies of Chushan, and I used any tricks. Zhao Shan, Liu Fujin, were all arranged by me by you, but today everyone is the robe. I hope you don’t treat each other like brothers because of the gap in the past..."
