Da Wei Chun

On the fifth day of November, Luoyang ushered in the first snow after the beginning of winter.Although it is not big, it has been continuous, and it has been on and off for four or five days.

Beijing is still good, and every li has a force to clean up the snow, and it will be cleared as soon as possible. No matter how big the snow is, it will not hinder the pedestrians.

But outside the city is not so convenient. When the weather clears on the tenth day of the first day, all official roads and galloping roads will be blocked by snow.When Henan Yin remembered to clear the snow, it was ten days later, and the ice feet in the road were five or six inches.

I don't know why, the climate this year is extremely cold, and the cold is very early.Although the snow fell late in Luoyang, the Luohe River showed signs of freezing before the beginning of winter.

Not only the capital, but also the Huai River and Si River in the two Huai Rivers, all of which were frozen by the end of October.

On the third day of the third day, Xiao Baokui, the governor of Southern Xuzhou, sent an urgent report saying that he did not know that this winter was extremely cold.

This is not Xiao Baokui's excuse, it's really a lack of preparation.

In previous years, no matter how cold the weather was, there was no record of freezing the Huai River.In the year of the Battle of Zhongli, both sides were still fighting on the Huai River during the first lunar month.

Therefore, it is not good enough that it will be so cold this year, such as winter clothes and tents, which are all the same as in previous years, and they have never prepared firewood.Therefore, the cold air suddenly hit, and none of the soldiers were immune to the cold.

The next day was colder than the next day, and many soldiers got better and then got sick again, and again and again, again and again, and the illness got worse again and again.Coupled with the lack of doctors and medicines, how can there be no reason to die?

Of course, if only five or six hundred soldiers were frozen to death, it would not even count as a disease of scabies for the imperial court.After all, the number of soldiers who died in Guanzhong last year was probably less than [-], and the four states of Guanzhong were even lost.

But at a glance, you can see the whole leopard. This is the case in southern Xuzhou. Can the other states near the Huai River be exceptions?

The same is true in Nangon Prefecture (north of Huaihe River, south of present-day Tuzhou), soldiers, generals and officials were mostly injured by cold and illness.To this end, the governor of the history of the Yuan Dynasty issued a decree, ordering the people of the state to go into the mountains to cut wood and burn charcoal.

In such weather, how can anyone survive in the mountains?The people naturally refused to obey, so Yuan Fa Seng could only send troops to force him.This compulsion is like poking a hornet's nest?
In less than a month, in three of the four counties of Nangong Prefecture, county residents rebelled.Fortunately, Southern Xuzhou is an important town. The prefecture is high enough and there are many garrisoned troops. The prefecture is safe for the time being.

Coincidentally, in mid-October, the Jiangxia clan was dissatisfied with the brutal exploitation by the governor, Yuanmi, and raised troops to rebel.Po Wuyin City (Dong Jingzhou of Yuan Wei, present-day Biyang, Henan), assassinated Shi Yuanmi and more than [-] officials below.

It was also a coincidence that both the rebels in Nangong Prefecture and Dongjing Prefecture were the first to send envoys to Nanliang, requesting the surrender of the city.

Fortunately, guarding Yangzhou (now Shouxian, Anhui), General Fu Shu, the general of Zhendong, who was in charge of the military forces in the south, saw the opportunity quickly and sent troops overnight to quell the rebellion.If it is a few days later, the two states will be surnamed Xiao.

In this way, it was considered a near miss for the imperial court, and it did not cause much turbulence.

Now, two months have passed since the emperor's decision to expedition in person.Li Chong had already rushed to Huazhou more than a month ago, and the commander-in-chief should punish the military.Then Yuan Yi followed Li Chong's request and moved Fu Shuyan, the prefect of Xuzhou, to replace Yang Dayan, as the prefect of Yangzhou and the military governor of Zhendong.

Yang Dayan was convicted of Zhongli's defeat and was demoted to Yingzhou (now Chaoyang, Liaoning).Four years ago, in the spring of Gao Zhao's rebellion, Li Chengzhi sealed Pingzhou (now Dalian and Liaoyang, Liaoning).At that time, Gao Zhao and Yuan Cheng were not at ease. They decided to reinstate Yang Dayan and moved him to be the governor of Liaodong, and later he was promoted to the prefect of Yingzhou.

The year before last, Rouran and Tuyuhun were driven back to their old nest by Li Chengzhi.At the request of Yuan Yi, Xi Kangsheng, Xing Luan, and others, Gao Ying moved to the east of the town to supervise Yuan Yao, the general of the town, to punish the rebellion.

At that time, Xi Kangsheng, Xing Luan and Yang Dayan all oversaw the military affairs of the two Huaihe Rivers, and their qualifications, prestige and military merit were enough to convince the public.

However, both Xi Kangsheng and Xing Luan were both supervising the military to punish the rebels, and they could not do without it. That's why Yang Dayan was made to take over the post of the prefect of Yuanyao Yangzhou, the prefect of southern affairs.

Now that Cui Yanbo was defeated, he needed a general to guard Guanzhong, so Li Chong could only take the initiative to ask Ying to supervise the military at the age of [-].

After the Chinese New Year, the emperor would go on a personal expedition, and he had to choose a general who was good at fighting to lead the army, so Shuangyi recalled Yang Dayan from the two Huaihe Rivers and ordered him to train his troops and prepare food and forage.

There were not many soldiers, and the Chinese army that accompanied the emperor on the expedition was only [-], but it was already one of the few families in the court.

They are the elite of the elite, and they can go to the battlefield when they are pulled out.In addition, the weather is good this year, and there is no shortage of food and grass in Beijing, so you can go out at any time.

However, the trip of the emperor as the commander-in-chief was not so easy.

Although it is wartime, you don’t need to be so particular about it, and you don’t need to set up a carriage in the counties along the way to welcome you, but the accompanying ceremonial car is indispensable.

For example, food, lodging, accommodation, travel, etc. are all needed, and more importantly, who is suitable for the civil servants and military generals to attend.Yuan Yi even considered that if the emperor caught a cold on the way or in the army, who would treat it, and how many herbs would be used.

None of these can be prepared in three or five days, and the ministers also thought that this winter was so cold that the rebels would not take advantage of the battle, and there was no need for the emperor to travel hundreds of miles in the cold.

So we decided to send troops after the Lantern Festival.

But who would have expected it, it didn't work out.

On November [-], Xiurong (now Xinzhou, Shanxi) county governor Pei An rebelled.On the eighteenth of the same month, Du Zuyue, the prefect of Fenzhou (now Fenyang, Pingyao), raised his troops to respond.

Fenzhou sounds like a state, but it is a pitiful small state, with only one county and four counties under its jurisdiction, and it is not as big as Sizhou Xiurong County.So just looking at the scale, these two places are only a little smaller than the two states of Nangong and Nanjing, Juzhou rebellion last month.

But when Di reported to Beijing, it was like an earthquake.

Xiurong County belongs to Sizhou, bordering Xiazhou in the east and Pingcheng in the north.Fenzhou is in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, adjacent to East Qinzhou in the west and Taiyuan in the north.

The two places are not bordering, but are separated by hundreds of miles. If there is no reason, how can they be linked together to rebel?

And this is only second. The key point is that Pei Anzhi was born in the Pei family in Hedong, and Du Zuyue was from the Du family in Jingzhao.

Both of them are heroes of the clan, and they hold the positions of governors and county governors, so it is inevitable that people will not associate them.

What's more, although the two places are separated by Bingzhou, they are both adjacent to Lishi Town.So if you can guess, you can also know why the troops will be launched at the same time, and they all echo each other?
If you think about it further, what about Bingzhou, which is separated in the middle and also adjacent to Lishijing?

And what about the Hehao clan who lived in Taiyuan, such as the Wang, Guo, and Wen clans?

The more you think about it, the more chills you feel.

The house flood leak happened overnight rain. On the fourth day of December, Jizhou urgently reported that Wei Rongxu, the governor of Bohai County, raised his troops.

Wei Shi and Du Shi are in Jingzhao together, and since the Han Dynasty, they have been known as "Wei Du in the south of the city, and go to Tianchi Wu".Compared with the Li family in Longxi, which has been in existence for less than a century, and the Yang family in Hongnong, who were fortunate to be revived as a foreign relative, these two families have existed for generations, and their heritage is even more profound...

The bad news was followed by three, and Yuan Yi, just a few days later, fell ill again.

Last time I was shocked and angry, but this time I was scared...
