Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 751 The dead friend is not dead

In Princess Baoding's mansion, Princess Baoding Zhang Qiwan has passed out from crying several times. She has a very good relationship with Zhao Kuangzan.

Of course, strictly speaking, this one is just a trophy, and he also has a Uyghur face. Although he is not yellow-headed and green-eyed, his appearance is still quite different from that of the Central Plains people.

And Zhao Kuangzan was of imperial blood, was born in a wealthy family, was handsome and capable of both literature and martial arts. If Zhang Wei and Zhao Kuangzan hadn't needed a bond of mutual trust, Zhao Kuangzan would never have married a princess who was actually a barbarian.

Therefore, Zhang Qiwan, who had some low self-esteem about his appearance and blood, felt in his heart that he was not worthy of Zhao Kuangzan, and after getting married, Zhao Kuangzan treated him very well, so naturally Zhang Qiwan was completely fascinated.

As for Zhang Qiwan, who has the title of princess, the only weapon she can use is crying, but since she doesn't have a mother in the palace, she has to cry more miserably to move people.

So early in the morning, when Shi Chonggui, Li Congyi, Meng Chang and others gathered under the Xuanwu Gate, Baoding Princess Zhang Qiwan ran in through the small gate with disheveled hair on her temples, crying.

Several people immediately breathed a long sigh of relief, no back pain and leg cramps, and even Meng Chang's drunkenness eased a bit.

Dead friends are not dead poor, now that Zhao Kuangzan has been recruited, they will be safe.

In the Chongwen Palace, Empress Cao Yanxi frowned. This matter was about to be resolved perfectly, but at this last moment a big mistake happened.

"Holy Empress, it has been found out that it was Xue Huairang, who once served as the commander of You Shenwu, who let Wang Jun and others escape, and received a large amount of bribes from Xue Huairang, the second battalion general of the Youjinwuwei, who was a pro-army and eleven soldiers below Yuhou. General, they have all been detained."

Cao Yanxi's frown deepened. More than [-]% of the officers and soldiers in the five pro-armies of the left and right Shenwei Guards, the right Jinwu Guards, and the left and right Leopard Guards were not athletes from Helong and Guanzhong, but Henan, Hebei, and Hedong in the Central Plains. Composed of athletes from three places.

This is a problem left over by the emperor before he ordered more than [-]% of the [-] households of the pro-army to grant land in Helong.

The reason why so many Feihelong athletes were recruited into the pro-army was really out of the need to balance the forces of all parties.

That is to avoid being too single in the military and being used by those who are interested, it is also to highlight the emperor's impartiality. This Great Zhou is also a unified dynasty, not a dynasty of Helong people.

The problem caused by this is that these five pro-military forces will always have some problems in terms of reliability.

The last time the emperor was almost assassinated in Xiangji Temple, it was because of the mistake of the right Shenwei guard. This time, it was the right Jinwu guard who let Wang Jun go.

Although the queen's face could not be seen through the curtain, Zhang Liecheng could feel the anger.

"Don't worry too much about the Holy Empress. My servant found out through investigation that this right Jin Wuwei's general, Yu Hou, was Xue Huairang's dental general, so he dared to risk letting Wang Jun go."

Pei Yuan also interjected: "The minister and Lord Jiaocheng have ordered people to sort out the arrangements. All the pro-army and forbidden troops related to Xue Huairang, Pan Huan, etc. are currently suspended pending trial to ensure that this kind of thing will never happen again."

Cao Yanxi still felt angry, she opened the curtain and came out, angrily said: "If Xue Huairang, Pan Huan and others didn't have an emperor, they would have been sunk into the Yellow River by the Khitan people, and Wang Jun and others were only allowed by the emperor. To survive, they are so ignorant!"

Pei Yuan and Zhang Liecheng looked at each other, the queen was not angry at the rebellion of Xue Huairang, Pan Huan and others, but was looking away.

In the Chang'an incident this time, Cao Renzun and Yin Yuande, who belonged to the old Guiyi army faction, were actually the main force of the rebellion.

But the Queen didn't say a word. Instead, since Hou Yi came to inform, Wang Jun, Xue Huairang, Pan Huan and others ran away, and immediately opened fire on them.

Pei Yuan didn't answer, because he was set up as a lone minister and wouldn't get involved.

In fact, before he entered the palace, a large number of honorable officials from Hedong, Daibei and Henan found him.

On the surface, they came here for a normal walk, but it was obvious that these people wanted Pei Yuan to open his mouth and bite the old Guiyi Army faction. Of course, Pei Yuan silently refused.

This heart!There is only so much power in the pool, and the old Guiyi army faction will spit out some, and the rest can share more.

Zhang Liecheng pondered for a moment, he is in a bad situation now, although the emperor's father and the empress' mother-in-law in front of him still trust him, but he is too deeply involved, Cao Wanjin is his concubine, and Kang Jinshan is his father-in-law.

You said Zhang Liecheng didn't know how much Kang Jinshan, Cao Wanjin and others made?
How is it possible, he is the commander of Jinyi's personal guards, so he may not understand it very well, but he definitely understands it at least seventy-eight percent.

But these, when he reported to Zhang Ting, he often mentioned it a few times, and the meaning of maintenance was obvious.

Zhang Liecheng reckoned that when the incident subsided and his father-in-law Kang Jinshan and Cao Wanjin were sensible, he would probably be able to safely leave his post as commander of Jinyi's personal guards, and then be sent to a local area to be a peace officer or a defense envoy.

If Kang Jinshan and Cao Wanjin can't give up their wealth, then...

No!Zhang Liecheng clenched his fists. If they didn't understand the fun, then Zhang Dalang could only be a 'filial son' once.

Thinking of this, Zhang Liecheng put Pei Yuan aside, and said to Cao Yanxi: "Holy Mother, don't worry, I will now tell the world about Xue Huairang, Pan Huan, and Wang Jun's ugly faces of ungratefulness and ignorance of loyalty."

Only then did Cao Yanxi nod his head in satisfaction, but he was actually a little bit pleased that Wang Jun and Xue Huai let them escape.

Without these people, I am afraid that what Cao Renzun and the others have done will not be able to be suppressed no matter how hard they are, and the connection will inevitably expand. This is a rebellion.

Just as they were about to discuss the specific implementation, the servants outside came to report, and Princess Baoding and the privy envoy Guo Tiance went outside to ask for an audience.

. . . .

Guo Tiance and Princess Baoding Zhang Qiwan arrived almost at the same time, because the news of the Xuzhou incident was sent by Zhao Kuangzan's confidant, Qu, who risked his life to send it.

Therefore, although Princess Baoding passed out from crying in the mansion once before going out, Guo Tiance still arrived a little later than her.

In Chongwen Hall, Princess Baoding saw Empress Cao Yanxi, she only called out to her mother, and passed out on the hall with a thud, Cao Yanxi also took two steps back in shock.

Hou Yi only knew that Wang Jun had approached him and asked him to join the uprising, but he didn't know anything else.

So Cao Yanxi only knew that Wang Jun, Xue Huairang, Pan Huan and others ran away, but did not know that they went to Xuzhou and successfully kidnapped Zhao Kuangzan.

Pei Yuan stood up suddenly, his eyes widened in shock, "Okay, something is going to happen in Wuning Town!
The saint mentioned several times in the past that Wuning Town should be broken up and reorganized, but it has never been implemented in time.

The current Wuning Town is almost entirely populated by the former Xuzhou Wuning Army. It is really possible that they were instigated by Wang Jun, Xue Huairang and others. "

Cao Yanxi ordered someone to help Baoding Princess Zhang Qiwan, and at the same time ordered someone to pass on the imperial physician, and then asked someone to fetch a map.

Although this Nineteenth Cao has never been on the battlefield, she is not an idiot who doesn't know anything.

Following Zhang Tie's example, she carefully looked at the map, and then her face became more gloomy.

"Xuzhou Mansion is located at the water and land hub, Songzhou is to the west, Tokyo is behind Songzhou, and the connection between the imperial court and Huainan can be cut off to the east.

Now that Xuzhou has changed, the four states of Hao, Si, Chu, and Hai that the sage obtained from the Southern Tang last time are in danger!
Guo Shumi envoy, plan to send out? "

Guo Tiance had already made full consideration on the way here, and he reminded Cao Yanxi: "Holy Mother, besides Xuzhou, the Qinghuai army in Shouzhou of the Southern Tang Dynasty should also be on guard.

Liu Renzhan, the governor of the Qinghuai Army, has been secretly preparing for the battle. He is also a rare famous general in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the saints have praised him.

If he and Wang Jun and others act at the same time and dispatch the elite Qinghuai army from Shouzhou to the north, it will only take three to five days to threaten the hinterland of the imperial court. "

Cao Yanxi looked at the direction of Shouzhou and nodded, "North of Shouzhou, the imperial court only has a guard army in Caizhou, but it has two to 3000 people, and it is still newly established. The combat effectiveness will not be very high. Shouzhou Qing The Huai army is the last elite of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and it is obviously difficult for a guard army to protect itself."

The drawbacks of my Saint Zhang's large-scale recruitment of elite soldiers finally appeared at this moment. After he took away the elite, the defense in the north of Shouzhou was terribly weak.

Of course, this is also the reason why Zhou Jun always underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Southern Tang Army.

"For the current plan, the only way is to dispatch Xuchang Mansion's Forbidden Army from Zhongwu Town and Xuchang's Left and Right Guards' Weisuo Army to Caizhou for reinforcements.

Once the Qinghuai army in Shouzhou is dispatched to the north, Yingzhou (Fuyang) can be lost, but Caizhou must be kept. "Guo Tiance said.

"However, what if Liu Renzhan's Qinghuai army went east to attack Huaisi and Huaizhou instead of going north to fight Cai and Yingzhou?" Pei Yuan quickly saw the problem.

Guo Tiance heaved a long sigh, "This is what a certain family is most worried about. Even if all the members of Wuning Town in Xuzhou join the rebellion, it will not be able to cause much trouble.

To put it bluntly, they are just guard dogs, because there are great advantages in Xuzhou. If they are guards, their combat effectiveness is not bad. If they want to go out of Xuzhou to attack, they probably don't have that much courage.

But if there is Liu Renzhan's instigation, instead of going to the west, they will harm the four states of Haosi, Chuhai and Haizhou, which will be dangerous. "

Everyone fell into a brief silence. The four prefectures of Haosi, Chuhai, and Huainan were the lands taken from the last battle of Zhang Teng and Huainan. Afterwards, they experienced the turmoil of land equalization. Most of the upper-class local tyrants in the four prefectures are not very trustworthy.

Gao Yunquan, the former envoy of the Zhangwu Army in Yanzhou, is currently serving as the observer envoy of the two prefectures and four states.

Although Gao Yunquan married Zhang Huaiqing's daughter and Zhang Ting's sister-in-law, she was not very capable. The last time the riots in the four states were suppressed by Zhao Cunyi and Ma Yaozi.

This time, if the Shouzhou Qinghuai Army and the rebellious Wuning Town attack these four prefectures together, Gao Yunquan will definitely not be able to stop it.

Pei Yuan pondered for a moment, and said to Cao Yanxi: "The sage in the past told his ministers that Zhang Yanqing and Zhang Xiong in Huaiyin Prefecture (Chuzhou) are loyal ministers.

The sage has a unique insight, and he can see everything accurately. I think these two people are reliable.

Moreover, the general trend of the world is in my hands, even if there are some people who can't see the situation clearly, they are still in the minority, these two people are still quite prestigious in Huaiyin Mansion, and the Ministry of Officials and the Privy Council are also rated as high schools every year.

The minister thought that even if the high-observation envoy could not defend the Huaisi Erzhou, it was still possible to retreat to Huaiyin Mansion and rely on Erzhang to defend Chuzhou. "

Cao Yanxi thought for a while, and agreed with Pei Yuan's point of view. I, Zhang Shengren, are very accurate in seeing people, which is obvious to all.

"In this case, it is still necessary for a brave general to risk his life to enter the Huaiyin Mansion to convey the imperial edict and boost morale."

Guo Tiance arched his hands, "So, let Murong Xinde, the commander in chief of Zhongwu Town, lead Zhongwu Town Zuoying, Xuchang Zuowei [-] soldiers and horses stationed in Caizhou, to prevent the Qinghuai army from going north.

Then ask Tian Guogong to return to Tokyo immediately, recruit the guards of Shendu, Tokyo, Zhengzhou, and Huazhou, and the soldiers of the patrolling bow and arrow clubs and gun stick clubs, and hand them over to Tian Guogong for command, and go to Shangqiu Mansion to deploy defenses to prevent Wuning Town West Enter.

As long as Caizhou and Shangqiu mansions are stuck, this incident will not be a big deal.

As for the Huaiyin Mansion, Fu Zhaoxu, General of Xuchang Mansion's Army and Horse Supervisor, has guarded Jianghuai for a long time, so he can order him to take a detour to Huaiyin Mansion to sit in charge at night. "

"Okay!" Cao Yanxi gritted his teeth, "Draw another [-] fine horses from the inner compartment and give them to Fu Zhaoxu. The Zhongli Mansion where the two prefectures of Hao and Si are located can be ignored, but the Huaiyin Mansion must not be lost!"
