Dajin royal family

Chapter 525 Guanzhong Dingding (Thanks for the reward from 2020-0744)
Li Yuan, father and son led the five thousand last elites to break out of the encirclement after a bloody battle, and rushed towards Fufeng County.

Li Anmin's face on the horse was very ugly. Judging from the resistance of the Northern Jin army at the south gate, their plan to break out of the siege had been seen through by the Northern Jin army!

Although it was meaningless to pursue who betrayed them at this time, he still couldn't help being annoyed. If it wasn't for this, how could they be in such a mess.

The newborn sun gradually radiated heat, and the light illuminated the earth in the early morning. Five thousand soldiers had run wildly all night, and they were already exhausted.

But they dare not rest, because there are still a large number of Northern Jin pursuers chasing and killing them behind them, and it is only safe to enter Dasan Pass.

call out!
An arrow brushed past Li Anmin's cheek, and hit a cavalryman in front of him on the spot, causing him to fall off his horse immediately.

"drive!"

Li Anmin whipped his horse wildly, leaning over his horse to avoid the Northern Jin Dynasty's crossbow.

After chasing and chasing, they quickly entered the mountain road, through which they could reach Dashan Pass, and then go south from Dashan Pass, and then they would be able to get rid of the Northern Jin army.

"Father, I'm going to resist the pursuers, you go!"

Li Jishi roared, turned his horse's head, and led the soldiers and horses to turn back.

"Big brother!"

"Dalang!"

Three urgent calls, Li Jishi has led the army to leave.

Li Yuan gritted his teeth, eyes bloodshot.He knew that Li Jishi might not be able to come back, so he could only run wildly.

a day later.

They finally arrived at Dashanguan, but they saw the "Jin" flag flying above the city of Dashanguan.

"How is it possible?" Li Yuan looked at Dasan Pass in a daze as if he had lost his soul.

Li Anmin was also dumbfounded, the Dasan Pass fell into the hands of the Jin army, how could they still have an ambush in the pass.

When they were in Chang'an City, they already knew that the Jin army led by Jiang Chengxiao entered Guanzhong from Pujin Pass. There were only [-] soldiers and horses. Where did the Jin army from Dashan Pass come from?

Qin Yujing stood at the top of Dasan Pass with a smile on his face.

"Sure enough, it was predicted by the general."

At this time, a large number of Northern Jin troops rushed out from both sides of the pass, and the leading general was Xie Yingjing!

He had previously been ordered to lead an army to assist the king, but he got news from the king on the way, asking him to lead the army south to Dasan Pass to wait for Li Yuan's troops.

"Where did they come from?" Li Yuan murmured.

Li Anmin recognized Xie Yingjing at a glance. Seeing him, Li Anmin instantly understood everything. It must be Li Yaoshi who led the army to defeat Xiaoguan and enter Guanzhong. No wonder they waited for many days without seeing the soldiers from Fufeng County rushing over. .

"Jiang Chengxiao has good means." Li Anmin looked up to the sky and sighed.

At this point, he could only smile miserably.

From the beginning to the end, Jiang Chengxiao's goal was not the Central Plains, he has been laying out the Guanzhong.Li Yaoshi's department in Lingwu County was his temptation. They did not repel the Northern Jin Dynasty at that time, but now they have given the Northern Jin Dynasty the opportunity to outflank Guanzhong.

No wonder he besieged and did not attack. It turned out that he had already made complete preparations.

At this moment, the atmosphere was very frozen. There were wolves in front and tigers in back. Li Yuan knew very well that he had stepped into a desperate situation.

In the final analysis, whether they stick to Chang'an or break out of the encirclement, they have little chance of surviving.

Lost.

This time it was a complete loss.

"Father, the eldest brother has probably already gone, and the child swears to live and die with his father." Li Yuanding said in a deep voice while holding the horse.

Li Anmin also rode to Li Yuan's side, "Father, so does the child."

At this moment, they have no choice but to die.

surrender?

Let him surrender to Jiang Chengxiao, he would rather die in battle.

"The three armies listen to the order!" Xie Yingjing raised his palm violently, and then lowered it, "Suppress the thief!"

The arrows leave the string and rise all over the sky, like locusts overwhelming the sky
Chang'an City!
Zu Yan has already suppressed the soldiers and horses who broke out with Li Yuan, and the gate of Chang'an has been completely opened. Duguzheng and Dou Wei are standing at the forefront, in front of them is the overwhelming and boundless banner of the Jin army .

"Everything is back to the original point." Jiang Chengxiao looked at Chang'an City, looking very calm at the moment.

There is joy, and there is also pride.

The horse under his crotch snorted, and the faces of the surrounding soldiers were sinking like water.

"Your Majesty, are you going to the city?" Du Ruming asked beside him.

Jiang Chengxiao nodded, and immediately galloped away from the formation.

With tens of thousands of troops, his cavalry looked very insignificant, but as he went out, all the soldiers of the army tensed up. The heavy knights took off their crossbows and stared at the opposite side. As long as they moved slightly, three Wan Zhongqi's arrows would greet him.

As Jiang Chengxiao's personal bodyguard, Nan Jiyun naturally followed.

As they approached, Duguzheng and Dou Wei led everyone to bow deeply.

"Welcome Your Majesty!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" The nobles from Guanzhong who followed behind them all lowered their heads to welcome Jiang Chengxiao.

Jiang Chengxiao got off his horse and reached out to help Duguzheng and Dou Wei up.

"The two adults know the current affairs and turn to the light, which is very valuable." Jiang Chengxiao said with a smile on the scene.

"The king's words are serious, but the king's heart is like an ocean, we are ashamed." Dugu Zheng said.

Jiang Chengxiao smiled, comforted everyone, and immediately ordered the three armies to enter the city.

He wouldn't worry about being blocked in Chang'an City. Now that all the passes in Guanzhong have been captured by him, no one can lead the army in except him.

When the army entered Chang'an City, the common people were already used to it. They stretched their heads to look at the Northern Jin army. Many people worried that the Northern Jin army would kill them like Li Yuan and Wei Hong, so they hid carefully at home.

After Jiang Chengxiao entered the city, Nan Jiyun immediately led his army to arrest all the nobles in Guanzhong who had not surrendered secretly, razed the three clans for the crime of 'conspiracy', and confiscated all their property.

In just one day, [-]% of the high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Chang'an were arrested, and the Dali Temple Prison and the Ministry of Criminal Prison in Chang'an couldn't hold it for a while.

Duguzheng and Dou Wei were terrified. They were not only afraid of Jiang Chengxiao's cruel methods, but also deeply afraid of Jiang Chengxiao's precise arrest.

Judging from this matter, Jiang Chengxiao's previous decision was to kill all the nobles in Guanzhong, otherwise he would not have caught all the nobles in Guanzhong who had not surrendered within a day.

If there is no preparation in advance, who will believe it?

The captured Guanzhong nobles were terrified, and they all expressed their desire to meet King Zhao and surrender to the Northern Jin Dynasty.

But Jiang Chengxiao didn't see any of them. How could he easily give up such a good opportunity to weaken the nobles in Guanzhong?
Only about [-]% of the Guanzhong nobles are left to facilitate control.

Besides, until now, only by copying these big dogs can the soldiers under his command be satisfied.

After all, the three armies should be rewarded.

The palace, the imperial study.

Jiang Chengxiao stood in the hall, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar place, feeling slightly melancholy in his heart.Although the swing of the facilities in the hall has moved, the general layout has not changed.

Back then, he also met the late emperor here, and he followed suit, cautiously.

Today, everything has changed.

"My lord, among the nobles in Guanzhong, there is no family that has surrendered. All the men have been imprisoned in the Dali Temple and the prison of the Ministry of Justice, and the women have been sent to the court and the Jiaofang Division." The guards recorded the property obtained from the house raids of the nobles in Guanzhong as a list and presented it.

"These are the lists, please decide, Your Majesty."

Jiang Chengxiao walked to the dragon case and knelt down, picked up the list and watched it.

The bandits in Guanzhong still have money. Even if they supported Li Yuan and Wei Hong, the sum of their land enclosure in Guanzhong, money collection, shop title deeds, supplies, food, etc. was still very scary, enough to pull up a team in a short time. An army of tens of thousands of people.

With the ransacking of the homes of these Guanzhong nobles who did not surrender, and the remaining [-]% of the land that Duguzheng and Dou Wei led by the previous Guanzhong nobles surrendered, [-]% of the land in Guanzhong had already fallen into his hands.

No wonder the first emperor did everything possible to suppress the nobles in Guanzhong. The backlog of these guys for hundreds of years is terrifying.

"Ship them all back to Taiyuan." Jiang Chengxiao closed the list booklet.

"Yes!"

After a pause, Nan Jiyun asked, "Your Majesty, what should we do with the imprisoned rebels?"

"Tomorrow in the Weihe River, all will be beheaded." Jiang Chengxiao said indifferently.

"Yes."

Nan Jiyun went down to carry out the order, and Du Ruming passed the message into the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, food prices in Chang'an have skyrocketed, and food is urgently needed to stabilize food prices and appease the people."

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxiao rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.

From the beginning of the year to the present, basically all the grain was consumed in Guanzhong. The remaining families such as the nobles in Guanzhong and the Dugu family donated only [-] to [-] shi, which can only last for a few months temporarily.

"Notify Taiyuan and ask them to transfer fifty thousand stones from the granary first."

"Yes." Du Ruming continued: "[-] shi plus Chang'an's food, it can barely last."

Jiang Chengxiao said helplessly: "This year is the only way to go. Li Yuan and Wei Honghuo merged, and the people in Guanzhong can't do spring planting. This year is a waste, and we can only rely on us."

This year, the people in Guanzhong have no way to farm because of the war, and naturally it is impossible to harvest in autumn.
