Han Shizu

Chapter 827
When the Emperor Han was flamboyant, debauched, and busy putting out fires to restore his dignity, his eyes turned to the southwest again. The rebellion in central Shu remained, and the Han army's campaign was in full swing.

November is the stage when the chaos in Shu is the most powerful and the struggle is the most intense. The attitude of the emperor and the order of the Han court are like a clear spring in winter, and the hearts of most of the common people in Shu are completely broken. The retreat of the traitors.For the rebels, the tough book-making is a life-threatening talisman, and the hot oil is filled with water, which naturally boils violently.

It is true that hundreds of thousands of rebels have caused disasters in dozens of states, and the momentum is indeed not small, but it will not be a big deal in the end, just like a group of grasshoppers after autumn.

In the early days, the rebellious nobles and powerful landlords were able to rely on their influence on the local area to confuse the ignorant people and gather crowds to plot chaos. The heart immediately decreases.

The people at the bottom have very strong endurance, and they can survive under the oppression and exploitation of Meng Shu. What's more, the Han court was changed, and the new ruler also reduced their burden and gave them hope.It's winter again, how many people are willing to brave the wind and frost to do the thing that loses their heads.

When the tigers doze off, the quality of the Han army is there. Once they calm down, they are still a strong army in the world. The soldiers of the Han army with bulging pockets are also more motivated to counter the rebellion. For most middle and lower-level officers and soldiers As far as they are concerned, the rebellion in Shu is another good opportunity for them to make contributions.As for those senior generals, under the encouragement and supervision of the emperor, in order to make up for their previous mistakes, of course they worked very hard.

And there is a group of people who work harder than the Han army who entered Shu, that is, those Shu troops who have been incorporated, only a policy of granting military merits to land is enough to increase their enthusiasm for killing thieves and fighting chaos.

Therefore, when December is about to enter, the chaos in Sichuan began to turn from prosperity to decline.

Chengdu in the twelfth lunar month is still a bit cold for the locals, but it is nothing to the Han army from the north. Most of the soldiers stationed in the Han army only added a layer of clothing, either made of silk or silk System, highlighting a "hao" character.

Chengdu has already restored the stability of the past. After Zhao Pu took office, he made drastic corrections and established the ruling order of the Han Dynasty.The most important thing is that in the streets and markets, except for the patrolling soldiers, there is no scene of the Han army rampant. The garrison in Chengdu was either restrained and returned to camp, or transferred out to quell the chaos.

Some things are so wonderful. Before the Shu chaos broke out, the atmosphere in Chengdu was tense, and the people were terrified, which even gave people a sense of smog.However, when chaos broke out frequently in various states, Chengdu was stable instead.Of course, this is not only due to the restraint of the Han army, but also because of the cooperation of the soldiers and the people, to be obedient citizens of the big Han, so as not to be affected. Before that, there was only a risk of being robbed, but if it was related to the rebellion, it would be the end of family ruin.

After the October rebellion broke out, Xiang Xun handed over the entire city of Chengdu to Zhao Pu, while he himself moved out of the city, set up another command post, issued orders, and suppressed the rebellion.

After a full month and a half of using force, the situation has tended to be under control. The larger rebel forces in Mianzhou, Zizhou, and Suizhou have been suppressed, and the rest of the counties have also won.And Jinzhou, Chengdu, like Han and Jian, was dealt with vigorously and vigorously in the shortest time, led by Wang Renshan, and basically wiped out.

Inside the handsome tent, in the stove, the charcoal was burnt red, and while releasing the heat, it also emitted a dazzling light, accompanied by a burst of crackling.

Xiang Xun was dressed in ordinary clothes, and took a military newspaper to browse through it. A smear of anger appeared on his serious expression, and he said coldly: "This Guo Jin, why is he so murderous? I don't know the severity. This is treating the people of Shu as a Killing hunters?"

After the Shu rebellion broke out, the senior generals of the Pingshu army were basically sent out. Zhao Kuangyin went to the north to take charge of the unified command of the Han army in all states to suppress the rebellion. To appease people's hearts.

Wang Quanbin took the Fengguo army to the south, stationed in Luzhou, and continued to the south to exert influence, completely bringing the vast area of ​​southern Sichuan into the ruling system of the Han Dynasty.It was hard work, but Wang Quanbin didn't dare to complain, especially after knowing that the emperor knew what he had done in Chengdu, he could only use the credit for calming southern Sichuan to restore his image.

As for the senior generals who stayed in Chengdu, only Xiang Xun and Gao Huaide remained.Gao Huaide was throwing his hands on the stove, warming the fire, listening to Xiang Xun's words, he couldn't help saying: "Why, Guo Jin killed the prisoners again?"

Xiang Xun put down the military report, got up and walked across to Gao Huaide, stretched out his chilblained hands to bake, tensed a few times, and made a comfortable sound.Looking at Gao Huaide, Xiang Xun said indifferently: "That's not true. Although Guo Jin is bold, he still doesn't dare to try his hand. It's just that there are more than 10,000 rebels in Mei and Jia. When it reaches [-], the casualties will be ignored, this is the achievement of more than [-] lives!"

After all, they are the same robes, and they have the promise of advancing together. Hearing Xiang Xun's words, Gao Huaide spoke for Guo Jin: "The former, the chaos is raging, Sichuan and Sichuan are shaking, and it is difficult to determine if it is not a heavy code. Because, the damage may be a bit bigger, but the effect should still be good. Meizhou is also stable if you want to come, and the people of Shu dare not rebel, so the government can calmly deal with it and clean up the mess!

Mr. Xiang led the army to conquer disobedient ministers, and he killed like hemp, why now his heart has softened, and he is compassionate, which can reduce the general's ambition! "

Xiang Xunran sighed, with self-deprecation: "Maybe it's old people who are sentimental!"

Xiang Xun is now only 46 years old. For a commander-in-chief, it can be said to be in his prime, but he has repeatedly lamented his old age in front of people, which many people do not understand.

Gao Huaide chuckled lightly and said, "Xiang Shuai always talks about being old, so there are so many old ministers and generals in the big man, how can he deal with himself!"

Hearing his joke, Xiang Xun became more serious, pointed to the military report submitted by Meizhou, and said with emotion: "This time Pingshu, your Majesty is eager to win, the city, the land, Dingkou, Bingjia, my army on the North Road , From the first battle in Sanquan to the entry into Chengdu, all the way to conquer and march, the lives of both sides were more than 10,000.

Today, in Meizhou alone, more than ten thousand people have been killed. Many people have died in the suppression of the chaos in the north, and the number of Shu people who were killed by soldiers due to the chaos is even more difficult to count.

What I worry about is that even if the chaos in Shu is successfully quelled, the lives of the people in Shu will be severely injured, and their vitality will inevitably be severely damaged. In the future, it will be difficult to explain to Your Majesty and the court! "

After listening to Xiang Xun's concerns, Gao Huaide was silent, pondered for a while, and then said with emotion: "Xiang Gong cares about the country and the people, what a commander!"

"Don't dare!" Xiang Xun waved his hand.

"Fortunately, the chaos occurred in winter, and there were not too many heads of Guizhou participating in it. Otherwise, if it was busy farming and delayed farming, the consequences would be even more serious!" Gao Huaide continued: "If you want to reduce the damage to the Shu land and the Shu people Casualties, and the only way to eliminate the rebels in the states as soon as possible, the longer the chaos is delayed, the greater the damage and loss will be caused!"

Xiang Xun expressed his approval: "That's what I said!"

"Maybe a commander-in-chief order can be issued to urge the soldiers of the states to suppress the remaining rebels and put an end to the chaos! The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the National Day is approaching, so we don't have much time left!" Gao Huaide suggested.

"The urging order is not urgent. Zhao Kuangyin is a knowledgeable person and knows the priorities. I believe he will handle it well. Your Majesty knows people!" Xiang Xun said, with admiration for Zhao Kuangyin in his tone.

Gao Huaide nodded, agreeing with this point, walked to the military map that marked the situation of the rebels, and thought: "After more than a month of suppression, the rebels in Jianzhou have been wiped out, and the rebels in Mianzhou have also been wiped out. It has declined, and the only remaining ones are Zizhou and Suizhou, which are the most troubled. Wait until the rebellion in Mianzhou is completely resolved, take a short rest, and then concentrate our forces to fight two battles. It will be possible to pacify it. If Zizhou and Suizhou are settled, the rest will not be enough Daozai!"

Listening to his analysis, Xiang Xun thought about it for a while, turned back to the commander-in-chief case, wrote down a military order, and then called Zhangqian Military Academy, who arranged to send it to Zhao Kuangyin, who was overseeing the suppression in the north.

It is not a military order to urge, but just to emphasize that the troops who are going to attack and suppress do not need to invade civilians, and during the crusade, killing should be minimized as much as possible.

War means destruction and death. Xiang Xun still understands that it is impossible to completely eradicate it. He can only do his best to save as much vitality as possible for Shuzhong.
"Qi reports to the commander-in-chief, Mr. Zhao of Chengdu enters the camp to ask to see him!"

"Please!"

Zhao Pu opened the tent and entered, with hurried steps, the coldness on his body was quickly dispelled by the warmth in the tent.During this period of time, although the Han army was in a hurry to put down the chaos, it was still busy, and it had to be Zhao Pu.Although he only holds the post of Quanzhi Chengdu Mansion, he has a lot of real power. As the highest-ranking official sent to Sichuan by the Han court, he can participate in the government affairs of Sichuan and Sichuan without any problems. The emperor gave him cheap power.

With as much power as you have, you need to bear the corresponding burden and pressure.Of course, for Zhao Pu, Chuanshu's resume is a great opportunity for his official career, so he is naturally conscientious and never dares to neglect his duties in the slightest.

"I don't know Commander Xiang, what's the point of calling the mansion here?" After entering the account, he didn't care about greetings, Zhao Pu asked directly.

"During this time, Chengdu and its surroundings have been stable, thank you Mr. Zhao!" Xiang Xunping smiled peacefully.

However, seeing his expression of "I'm very busy", Xiang Xun gave him the military report of Mei and Jia, and said clearly, "Guo Jin sent a good report. Clearing up, Mr. Zhao can arrange people to rectify the government affairs and divide the land!"

For the "land reform", the Han court urgently dispatched a group of cadres to Shu to "assist" the local land rectification. Those people were basically arranged by Zhao Pu.Hearing this, Zhao Pu took Yi Lan, did not say much, and immediately nodded in agreement.

Xiang Xun continued: "You can also send people to the counties in the north!"

Zhao Pu was a little surprised, and raised a question: "If the government's knowledge is correct, the rebellion in the north has not yet been put down, and the rebels are still gathering to resist!"

Xiang Xun smiled softly: "Resistance is true, but its momentum has faded to the west, and it has been completely suppressed by our army. The chaos has been brought under control. Fighting in front and dividing land in the rear, there is no conflict."
