Chapter 646 Reorganization
Lintao.

The barracks covers an area of ​​more than [-] acres, and a series of large tents are stretched out.

On the school field, the general named "Li Zeyi" looked back and saw a row of Song soldiers standing with spears.

The Wang family has surrendered to the Song Dynasty.

This was known a few days ago, the [-] army was wiped out, and the Song army captured Gongchang with lightning speed.

Just surrender, Li Zeyi believes in the Wang family's judgment on the situation.

His grandfather's nickname was "Li Jie". As early as when the Kingdom of Jin was still alive, Li Jie was already a general under Wang Shixian's command.After that, he served as the governor of Gongchang's commander-in-chief.

This is true of grandparents, and so is father generation.When Wang Dechen was the commander-in-chief, Li Tingyu, the eldest son of Li Jie, also served as the governor of the commander-in-chief.

When it came to grandchildren, Li Zeyi still followed the lead of the Wang family.

Whether it is Meng or Song, it is nothing more than changing the head of the Wang family to pay tribute and taxes, and the Wang family will continue to keep them living in the local area...

The next moment, Wang Zhongchen raised his hand and pointed at Qianhu Zhao Bing.

"Zhao Bing, was ordered to follow Kuo Duan to slaughter Shu..."

"puff."

Li Zeyi was stunned for a moment, seeing Zhao Bing's body lying in a pool of blood in front of her, and then she wanted to struggle, but soldiers of the Song army rushed forward to hold him down.

"What?!"

"Say yes to surrender!"

"..."

Amidst the shouts, Li Zeyi understood that this attachment was different from the past.

Song Jun wanted to blame Tu Shu for the past, and Wang Zhongchen abandoned the subordinates who followed the Wang family for three generations for his own benefit.

Now is not the time when Wang Shixian is alive.

This is a betrayal, a betrayal!

He raised his head and looked at Wang Zhongchen who was standing on the platform, only to see that the other party was still pointing at his fellow generals one by one.

"Li Tingtong..."

Li Zeyi was startled when she heard the words, and in her eyes, she saw his third uncle falling straight to the ground.

"Three Uncles!"

A burst of anger shot through her forehead, Li Zeyi's eyes were shattered, she clenched her fists and wanted to rush forward to kill Wang Zhongchen, but was held down tightly by Song Jun.

"Wang Zhongchen! What are you doing?!"

Li Zeyi wished she could eat Wang Zhongchen's flesh, and cursed at her.

"Wang Zhongchen! My grandfather followed your father for the first time, and my uncle and second uncle were buried for your Wang family. How dare you kill my third uncle! How dare you!"

Wang Zhongchen didn't seem to hear it, but after a while, he raised his finger to Li Zeyi.

Li Zeyi was angry, shocked and frightened, and shouted: "Wang Zhongchen! I have never been to Sichuan..."

"Li Zeyi." Wang Zhongchen said: "Li Tingtong's nephew, he is the company."

Li Zeyi was terrified, seeing the soldiers of the Song army about to stab them with spears, she knew she was going to die, and her mind was in a state of confusion.

However, for an instant, he saw the spear stop, and the soldier with the spear glanced back.

Li Zeyi thought about it, and from the corner of her eye, she saw many generals kneeling down.

Looking at the general's platform again, he finally noticed that the general of the Song Army was looking at him, with a look of scrutiny in his eyes.

As long as the opponent nods, life is gone.

"Marshal Li, spare your life!" Li Zeyi shouted, "I am willing to do my best for the Marshal!"

He struggled, but struggled to kneel down.

"Master, please forgive me... please forgive me..."

Sweat was already dripping on his forehead, and after a while, Li Zeyi realized that the soldier with the spear didn't stab him, but tied him up with a rope instead.

There was blood all over the school field, but he was picked up and thrown into a tent.

In the distance, there were shouts, apparently Song Jun and Wang Zhongchen were receiving soldiers.

It wasn't until night that soldiers came and carried him out.

Looking around, I saw someone holding down a general in the tent of the Chinese army, and then... beheaded.

~~
"Li Zeyi, grandson of Li Jie, son of Li Tingxiu..."

Li Xia murmured while holding a booklet, and asked, "Who are you, Li Tingyu and Li Tingwang?"

"It's my uncle, my second uncle..."

Li Xia said: "They died at my hands, and your third uncle. It seems that you and I will never stop dying."

Li Zeyi was startled, thinking of the corpse outside the tent, she quickly bowed down.

"No. Commander-in-chief, please be clear. My uncle and second uncle died in the battle wrapped in horse leather. How dare I complain? As for the third uncle, he was betrayed by Wang Zhongchen...but...the Mongolian army slaughtered tens of thousands of people in Shu, commander-in-chief Killing Uncle San, I absolutely dare not complain."

"really?"

"Really! I beg the commander-in-chief to give me a chance, and I am willing to die for the commander-in-chief!"

"You want to live?"

"I'm not afraid of death, but...but I don't want to die like this..."

Li Xia asked again: "What is this like?"

"Being betrayed... I will die like a fool..."

"This time, Wang Zhongchen asked you to submit, and it turned out like this. Are you convinced?"

Li Zeyi hesitated for a moment.

Li Xia said: "Yeah, you are not convinced. If you don't fight with a real sword, you will not be convinced after all."

"Convinced." Li Zeyi lowered her head and said, "The commander-in-chief has taken Gong Chang, I... dare not fight."

"Well, your father has always been in poor health. He didn't join the army. He is a scholar. Besides, your son is three years old?"

Li Zeyi's body trembled, and her face changed dramatically.

Li Xia said: "Don't be afraid, I didn't touch your wife, children and parents. They are still fine. When I went to Gongchang, I directly attacked the Wang family's mansion, but it didn't affect your home. I just want to see what they have in your heart." portion size."

"Master, please don't..."

"I said, don't be afraid, even if I want to kill you, I won't touch your little one. I promise you this."

"Thank you, Commander, for your kindness! Please trust me, Commander-in-Chief!"

Li Xia looked at Li Zeyi again for a long time, and finally said: "There is no rush, let's talk about it in two months, you can stay at ease... take it away."

As far as Li Xia is concerned, among the captive generals, they will be killed if they refuse to accept, and those who are sincere in their service are still willing to accept.

But Li Zeyi is quite special, she expressed her intention to serve her after she became an enemy...

After thinking about it, there is no need to take risks, there are only 200 people under his command.

And the reason for not killing is because hatred should not expand any further. The more people are killed, the hatred will only increase.

After destroying the prestige of the Wang family, Li Xia must start to build his own.

……

For the next ten days or so, Li Xia was busy with defense and reorganization.

He divided the eight thousand elites, ordered Bao San to lead 2000 people to guard Tianshui, and ordered Xiong Shan to lead 2000 people to guard Jieting.One thousand elites stayed by their side to support them at any time.

Afterwards, Li Xia replaced the generals in each prefecture and county, and sent a thousand elites to lead the garrisons in various places.These garrisons were of mediocre combat strength, and they were dispersed among the Song army, so there was no need to worry about changes, they were nothing more than to stabilize order.

The most troublesome are the 3000 people in Gongchang and the 4000 people in Lintao. These are the original main forces in Longxi.But since it has surrendered, it can always be reorganized with a little effort.

Li Xia killed many generals, and killed, imprisoned, or drove their confidantes into labor. In the end, more than [-] soldiers were left, and they were reorganized with [-] elite soldiers.

In this way, although it is not considered as a command, it can also increase the strength of five thousand troops.

During this process, what he worried most was that someone would mutiny and release [-] Mongolian captives.

Wang Liangchen originally planned to wait for Kublai Khan to send people to recruit them, so he only tied them up, provided them with food and grass, and let them eat half full.

After thinking about it, Li Xia dispatched another 3000 people to take these Mongolian prisoners to Chengdu, where Zhang Jue drove them into labor.

These [-] captives were beasts after all, and Li Xia didn't dare to take them in for the time being. It wasn't because they were "not of my race", but because Brother Ali and Kublai Khan were still too strong.In comparison, Li Xia's strength is too weak to make them come back.

After finishing all these tasks, it can be regarded as the initial foothold in Longxi.

On the tenth day of June, Li Xia returned to the town of Gongchang. After arranging defenses, he asked someone to bring Wang Zhongchen up.

"You have finished what you should do. Today I will send someone to escort the Wang family to Lin'an."

Li Xia approved the document without raising his head, and said: "The reputation of the three generations of the Wang family guarding Longxi has been ruined by you. But it is also true. It is meaningless for me to use or kill your family members. You can rest assured." .”

"Yes." Wang Zhongchen understood this.

"You send them to the east gate, and then they will be punished. Someone will send your head to Chengdu to sacrifice to the undead."

There was some sadness in Wang Zhongchen's eyes, and his face looked like he disregarded life and death and only cared about Li Xia.

"Speaking of offering sacrifices...the benefactor has not yet come to the Dragon Palace of the Li family to offer sacrifices."

"I'll go, don't worry about it."

Wang Zhongchen said: "When a person is about to die, his words are also good. The sinner wants to persuade the benefactor one last time. Since he has the intention of seeking the world, he should first rectify his name..."

"Wang Zhongchen, do you want to live?"

Li Xia interrupted, raised her head, and said, "I know you're useful. But I might as well tell you what I think."

Wang Zhongchen saluted and listened attentively.

He knew that only by refuting Li Xia's ideas, could he have a way to survive, follow Li Xia alive, and maybe find a way for the Wang family to rise again.

"Take your head to comfort the hearts of Sichuan and Shu, this is one of them. Thousands of people...every family has relatives and friends who have died under your butcher's knife. Tell me, is your life worth the hearts of millions of people?"

Li Xia didn't wait for Wang Zhongchen to answer, and said again: "As for Longxi, I have made it clear to the soldiers and soldiers that I do not want to kill people in Longxi. The soldiers and horses crossing the border will not commit any crimes. They only pursue those who slaughtered Shu. Recently, I beheaded so Many generals, but not killing you, do you want me to break my promise?"

"Sinners don't dare, sinners just see that the benefactor is one person in every detail..."

"If you don't die, my name is not right."

Li Xia said the last sentence, waved his hand, and said, "Press it down."

Wang Zhongchen was stunned.

He thought that he got along well with Li Xia these days, but he didn't expect that the other party was really so ruthless.

~~
Two hours later, a head was hung on Weiyuan Tower.

"Now my master Wang enters Longxi, and only punishes the sinners who slaughtered Shu!"

As the bell rang, someone shouted loudly.

"The sinner is dead, the enmity is gone, the whole family can live and work in peace and contentment!"

On the long street, notices were posted.

"Live and work in peace!"

"..."

Li Zeyi stood on the street looking at it for a long time, then let out a long sigh...

After he was captured, Li Xia neither appointed him as a general nor held him accountable.

He was only escorted back to Gongchang, and then let him go home.

After Li Zeyi returned home, seeing that her parents, wife and children were safe, she was momentarily at a loss.

He vaguely knew that Li Xia was testing him to see if he would flee with his family.

Where are you going?The soldiers were scattered, and I don't know where they were transferred;
The father is sick, the son is only three years old, and the mother, wife, and daughter-in-law, how far can they go?
If you don't leave and stay in Gongchang City, how will you support your family in the future?
Waiting for the Mongolian army to recover Gongchang?

Can you wait?

do not know……

Do you hate Li Xia?

Li Xia came here with the hatred of tens of thousands of people, broke Gongchang and took the Wang family directly, appeased the people, recruited the soldiers, and only punished the generals who entered Shu and those who were unruly in the army.

Regardless of their strength, these practices can be called upright.

"Live and work in peace."

Li Zeyi murmured along with the crowd, thinking that she wanted to make a living after all, so she planned to go to Li Xia, but thought that if the Mongolian army came to recover Gongchang, she hesitated again.

"It doesn't matter, how can a man be indecisive!"

He muttered to himself, and strode towards the commander-in-chief's mansion again.

"Criminal Li Zeyi, please serve the commander-in-chief and be willing to be a soldier..."

~~
"Lu Xiaoyou."

"The end is here."

"This soldier belongs to you first."

"Yes!"

Li Xia turned around and was about to leave. After thinking for a while, she turned around and said to Li Zeyi, "Don't be in a hurry to get your original military power. Let me see your loyalty and ability before discussing it. Go."

Over there, Liu Jinsuo was coming to report on military affairs. Seeing this scene, he smiled.

"What are you smirking at, let's talk in the classroom."

"Yes!" Liu Jinsuo followed with strides, and said: "I thought of Yang Ben, and I can use it with confidence after the general wins a few more games with the commander."

"Ah."

"Marshal, it's too cheap for the Wang family to say that the hatred is gone. Chuanshu is dead..."

Li Xia stopped, glanced at Weiyuan Building, and murmured, "Do you know what shames me the most?"

Liu Jinsuo was taken aback, and murmured: "What?"

"It could have been avoided, and it was not difficult to avoid. When Kuodan entered Shu, the Mongolian army not only had this route of soldiers and horses, but Jinghu was facing the main force of the Mongolian army. Why did Jinghu not suffer such a disaster like Sichuan and Shu? Because There is Meng Gong who is trying to turn the tide.

Does the Marquis of the North want to massacre the city?How many people did Yao Shu save in the battle of Jinghu?Is Wang Shixian just a butcher who can bury Cao Youwen generously and escort books?But relying on the compassion of these northerners alone is not enough, people have to fight for themselves.

Is it hard to live up to?Is the Mongolian army strong?Or the Mongolian army that attacked Shu was much stronger than the one that attacked Jinghu?Meng Gong served as the first coach, severely defeated the Mongolian army, and transferred to Sichuan and Shu, where he could drive the enemy away in one battle!
But look at how those battles in Sichuan and Sichuan were fought back then?Wang Shixian wanted to join him but failed, Cao Youwen was forced to fight in the field, isolated and helpless, the Mongolian army came, Zhao Yanna led the Chengdu defenders and fled without a shot.

Who put the lives of thousands of people in Sichuan and Sichuan under the butcher knife of the Mongolian army?The most shameful thing is that if Wang Shixian is replaced by another person, I am afraid that he will still help the Mongolian army enter Shu for slaughter.Because the people in Sichuan and Shu paid food and taxes, they enshrined a court that failed to protect them at all.

Before thinking about hatred, you first remember the shame on the Song Dynasty robes we are wearing. "

Liu Jinsuo was stunned for a moment, and murmured: "Marshal, I..."

"Have you heard it? Then you tell the soldiers in private that your commander-in-chief will wash away the shame."

"En." Liu Jinsuo nodded vigorously.

"Tell them that the current commander-in-chief of Shu is not Zhao Yanna, and he has to do better than Meng Gong."

"understand!"

At this time, the two had already entered the lobby, Li Xia spread out the map and said, "Let's talk."

"Yes!" Liu Jinsuo pointed forward, and said: "Bao San sent a message that Liu Heima deployed his troops outside the Weihe River Valley, but he did not enter."

"Haven't soldiers entered Longxi? Are you trying to lure me into Guanzhong to fight in the field?" Li Xia muttered to himself.

"I don't know!"

"I didn't ask you..."

"Also, Guanzhong sent envoys to see the commander-in-chief."

"messenger?"

"Yes, Bao San asked the commander if he would let the envoy pass the checkpoint..."

~~
Li Xia looked at the map for a long time alone.

"You still haven't come? Messenger?"

After that, Li Xia opened the drawer, took out the letters written by Lian Xixian to Wang Zhongchen, and read them one by one.

From planning Guanzhong to this moment, in terms of strategy, Li Xia's preparations half a year in advance actually suppressed the enemy's generals and advisers.

But now I gradually feel the difficulty of Lian Xixian.

"To what extent?"

Li Xia thought about it.

Among the people I meet today, when it comes to strategy, Jia Sidao can be called the best.

And Jia Sidao is more good at strategy than military strategy... and has a fatal flaw, he always likes to control others with kindness, and he is jealous, excluded, and makes too many enemies when things go wrong.

Common mistakes made by smart people.

But I don't know how Lian Xixian compares to Jia Sidao...
