Han Shizu

Chapter 760
Dingzhou is located at the eastern foot of Taihang and the western edge of the Northern Hebei Plain. It belongs to the throat and the main area.Over the years, Dingzhou has played a very important supplementary role in the defense of Khitan, especially in guarding the Taihang, supporting Yizhou, and clearing the scattered enemies from Weizhou.

In the past ten years, it was the Sun brothers who ruled Dingzhou.As early as the time when Jin and Liao were fighting for the front, the situation in the north of Shijin was gradually in danger. Sun Fangjian took advantage of the situation and gathered the people.

Afterwards, when Khitan sent troops to the south, he repeatedly led his subordinates to resist, harass, attack and kill, and achieved many gains.Of course, at that time, for Sun Fangjian, national righteousness, loyalty to the emperor and serving the country were all secondary, and self-protection and safety were the main goals.

However, Sun Fangjian was quite courageous and full of courage. He was not at all afraid of the Khitan army, and dared to take the initiative to stroke the tiger's beard and rob food, military battles and other supplies.

Although it was a small fight, but after all, the name was given out. The people around, hearing of his reputation, often went to Langshan to attach to him, and the Jin court also made him a border tour envoy, ordering him to recruit troops and resist the Khitan. .Later, Sun Fangjian also took the initiative to present to the Jin court, admonishing the Khitan strategy, but the result can be imagined, a small border game envoy is actually regarded as a bandit, how can he care about his thoughts and suggestions? .

Not getting the attention of the Jin court, Sun Fangjian became resentful and had an affair with Khitan.On the Khitan side, at that time, the focus was mainly on Shi Jin's Northern Imperial Army. Although Sun Fangjian's "anti-Hu" team was too disturbing, they were somewhat disregarded, and they also intended to buy it off to ease their troubles. .

Of course, Sun Fangjian's strength is also not strong. When the Langshan old camp had the largest population, Dingkou was less than [-], and only the Khitans from Ding, Wei, and Yizhou were dealing with him.

Even so, with his not-so-great strength, Sun Fangjian has done a lot of things, including attacking Guancheng, killing Hulu, and even leading people to break through the Feihu Village in the north, making the traffic pass leading to Youyan short-lived. Time returns to the Central Plains Dynasty.

Until Yelu Deguang entered Kaifeng and established Daliao, Sun Fangjian was appointed as the Jiedu envoy of Dingzhou, and he was found to be appointed as the Jiedu of Yunzhou, so that he led the people to relocate.What kind of place is Yunzhou? At that time, it had been ceded to Khitan for ten years. It would be good to go there. Sun Fangjian directly said that he would not serve him.

Afterwards, as expected, he got the chance. Yelude's government was evil, and the army towns and people in the Central Plains fought back. Gaozu Liu Zhiyuan took advantage of the situation and sent troops to the Central Plains to pick peaches, hunt his deer, and seize his tripod.

Sun Fangjian moved according to the situation, especially after the Battle of Luancheng, the Khitan forces in Hebei fully shrank and retreated north. Repeatedly, Liu Chengyou played the imperial court and regarded it as the festival of Dingzhou.

Later, Liu Chengyou succeeded to the throne, and Sun Fangjian was stationed in Dingzhou as a Jiedu.

Before and after, the Khitan army killed by Sun Fangjian had nearly [-] people. Although it was accumulated over the years, and most of them were from Bohai and Xi, they made great contributions to the direct battle against Khitan.

Until the seventh year of Qianyou, Sun Fangjian entered the court, handed over power and returned to power, returned to Xijing, and died of illness soon.After Sun Fangjian's death, the Dingzhou Jiedu was abolished, and the imperial court newly established the Yongning Army, with Sun Xingyou as the envoy, responsible for the defense of Dingzhou and Feihu.

Compared with his brother, Sun Xingyou is much more mediocre, and his knowledge and thinking are much more ignorant. He was reckless at first, but following his brother's rise due to the situation, he did more things than the rules, so that Dingzhou's military administration collapsed.Of course, this is also the reason why the legacy of the feudal town could not be cleaned up.

As for the monster nun's mischief, the root cause is his brother Sun Fangjian. In the early years, Sun Fangjian gathered in Langshan to reassure people. He gathered his disciples with incense and teachings to confuse and brainwash them. In the early days, Sun Fangjian still played a certain role.

In the third year of Qianyou's "Buddha extermination", although there were actions in Dingzhou, they were mostly superficial. They gave an explanation to the court, but they secretly maintained it. Many people with deep Buddhist roots went to Dingzhou secretly to take shelter of the Sun family's influence.

But in the following years, it gradually grew stronger, and the spread of teachings became more and more rampant. There was no concealment, and the people rushed to worship, and there was an endless stream.When Sun Fangjian was around, he was still in control, but when Sun Xingyou was around, he couldn't control it, and people were also promoting his Sun's merits
"You all probably understand the situation!" In the imperial tent, Liu Chengyou looked at Li Huan and Bai Chongzan, and said slowly: "Tell me, how should we solve the Dingzhou matter?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, we should strictly implement rectification, clean up bad government, withdraw military power, eliminate thieves and nuns, clear up demons, calm people's hearts, and restore Dingzhou to stability!" Li Huan immediately responded, one set of one set.

Hearing his words, Liu Chengyou just said: "This is exactly the effect I want to achieve, but how should I do it?"

Bai Chongzan was obviously also thinking about this matter, and immediately said: "For the current plan, we need to take down Sun Xingyou as soon as possible, confiscate the military power, and control the state affairs, so as to avoid disaster. After that, we can calmly solve the problem according to the imperial government system." , as long as the situation is under control, even if there is some turmoil, it will not be a big problem.

As he said, Sun Xingyou led the crowd back to Langshan to protect himself. Although he is stupid, he must not be careless.Once it is allowed to succeed, the consequences will be unpredictable.Therefore, the minister believes that it is not too late, and we should take decisive measures to deal with it! "

"That's what I mean!" Liu Chengyou smiled lightly, looked at Bai Chongzan, and said, "For this matter of controlling the situation, Baiqing went there in person!"

As he said that, Liu Chengyou personally drafted an imperial edict, sealed it, and handed it to Bai Chongzan: "Sun Xingyou is still in Tang County, and Puyin is less than a hundred miles away from Tang County, but it will arrive in the morning and evening. I will patrol with you with a thousand forbidden troops." Go in the name of the prosecutor, control the government office, and call Sun Xingyou to come to see me!"

"Shouxin, arrange your troops!" Liu Chengyou ordered Shi Shouxin and Li Huan again: "Li Qing, you go together and take over Dingzhou civil affairs. The customs that should be closed should be done, and all the smog will be cleared away. , I want to see a peaceful Dingzhou in the shortest possible time!"

"Yes!" The two agreed.

"Your Majesty, after all, Sun Xingyou has the military power, if he uses the garrison to resist." Bai Chongzan expressed hesitation.

"Why, Bai Qing is afraid that he won't be able to take down Sun Xingyou?" Liu Chengyou asked.

"Dare to ask Your Majesty to clarify the decree!" Bai Chongzan looked serious.

"If you gather soldiers to fight stubbornly in the city, you will be rebellious. If you rebel, you will be punished immediately!" Liu Chengyou gave Bai Chongzan a clear instruction coldly.

He looked at the inspector of Wu Desi again, and ordered: "You go with General Bai, and explain the military and political situation in Tang County to him in detail!"

"Yes!"

The next day, before dawn, the camp had already started to move, and the sky was getting brighter. Bai Chongzan led Shi Shouxin's [-] Dragon Rest Army to the west, marched lightly and quickly.

The state city of Dingzhou is Anxi County, which is located at the confluence of Tang River and Changxing River. Reconstruction, so the court was played, and the state was relocated to Tang County.After the imperial court abolished Dingzhou Jiedu, the state government was relocated to Anxi, but Tang County was still the station of Yongning Army.

In this way, it was convenient for Bai Chongzan's action this time, along the Tang River, all the way to the northwest, suddenly arrived at Tang County, in the name of inspection, he directly called the city gate to open, and entered the city.

At this time, Sun Xingyou was packing his bags in the mansion, a busy scene, with his breasts exposed, holding a cattail fan in his hand, flashing it while panting, I don't know if it was hot or nervous.

Sun Xingyou is more than 50 years old, but from the scolding sounds he makes from time to time, it can be seen that he is in good health and full of energy.

"You idiots, with this little family money, I have cleaned it up for two days, but it's still not done!" Seeing a group of servants digging the green plants in the garden, Sun Xingyou couldn't help it, and stepped forward and kicked: "What do you care about these flowers and plants?"

"Madam said that these flowers and plants are carefully cultivated by her, and they need to be brought along with you." The servant replied fearfully.

Sun Xingyou had quite a few women, and one of them was his favorite.However, at this time, Wen Zhisun Xingyou became angry: "Ignorant woman, what do you know? Listen to me, or listen to her? There are flowers, plants and trees in Langshan, don't worry about it, go, get my clothes ready." "

As the sun moved westward, the busyness in Sun's residence continued. As the subordinate officers rushed to report that the imperial army had entered the city, Sun Xingyou's face suddenly turned pale, and his mind went blank. Only two words remained: "It's over!"
