Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 1076

On the Weinan sea, a hundred sails are vying to cross.

Li Jing studied the piece of information in front of him.

The intelligence staff advised from the side.

"Marshal, be careful with Feng An, he may not be trustworthy."

Feng An's brother Feng Xuan rebelled this time, but Feng An did not rebel. This does not mean that Feng An is trustworthy.

"Feng Xuan has always been a flirtatious person, and he has rebelled against the Central Plains several times. He has long been used to it." Li Jing has been in Lingnan for several years, and he is quite familiar with these local scumbags. After the development of generations, all of them are extremely tyrannical.

Back then, at the end of the Nanliang Dynasty, Chen Ba first raised troops to challenge Hou Jing. At that time, his biggest supporters were these marshals from Lingnan. Later, Chen Ba first established the Chen Dynasty. The chiefs of various ministries went to Jiankang to congratulate him, and Chen Baxian conferred him the post of prefect.

The nine-year-old Feng Pu was able to be appointed as the prefect, of course, not because he was talented or meritorious, but because at that time in the Lingnan area, especially in the eastern area of ​​Lingnan, the Feng Xian family was a model of the combination of Han and Slang, and they had great power and prestige in the local area. According to historical records, they have a base of two thousand miles, more than 1 soldiers, and more than [-] servants in their family.

Because of this strength, Chen Baxian also attached great importance to Feng Xian's local forces represented by Feng Pu, and specially appointed nine-year-old Feng Pu as the prefect.

Mrs. Xian, who has gone through the Chen, Sui and Sui dynasties, was even called the Holy Mother of Lingnan. At that time, the Feng Xian family was the most powerful in the entire Lingnan area, and Mrs. Feng was the head of the two families. The female stream is also a figure who stomps her feet, and the whole Lingnan will be shaken three times.

As the leader of the slang people for generations, the Xian family has more than 10,000 tribes and [-]+ households, which is comparable to a small country.

Coupled with the fact that the Feng family was the representative force of the imperial court going south, and the combination of Han and Slang, the momentum of the two groups of Feng and Xian can be seen.

However, Mrs. Xian's husband, Feng Bao, and his son, Feng Pu, both died very young. The two groups of Feng and Xian relied on this woman as the leader. Choosing the right team allowed her to continue to maintain her position in Lingnan. Even in several Lingnan rebellions, she resolutely raised troops to put down the chaos, which added to her family's prestige and momentum.

However, as early as the beginning of the Sui Dynasty, Feng Xuan, the second son of Feng Pu, participated in the rebellion several times, but each time the final result was that Mrs. Xian was punished by herself, and then the court still granted him an official position.

Because of this, Feng Xuan can be regarded as an alternative in Feng Xian's group, or it may not be that there is no deep-seated arrangement in it.

Feng Pu had three sons, Feng Xuan was the second child, Feng An was the third child, and the eldest child died young.

Originally Feng Xuan should be the heir of the patriarch, but because of the experience of rebelling against the court several times in the early years, the old lady finally passed the position of patriarch to Feng An.

And Feng Xuan continued to be an alternative to the Feng family.

Qin Dingnan, Feng An was the prefect of Gaoliang County, which was the headquarters of the Feng family, and Feng Xuan was the prefect of Yongxi County.The Feng family's Leizhou Peninsula was assigned to Hepu County managed by the Ning family by the imperial court.And the imperial court set aside Yongxi, which was managed by the Ning family, for the Gao family.

Although this division broke the previous division of power, it did not change the situation much.

Ning Changzhen begged for his son Ning Zhu to marry Feng Xuan's daughter, and they became in-laws.

"Commander, I think Feng Xuan was deliberately pushed out by the Feng Xian family. Earlier, Xian Baoche was pushed out by them. The family was divided into two factions. As a result, after Xian Baoche's defeat, the Feng family continued to push Feng Xuan out. That's it. First, your family stands on both sides, no matter what, you will keep your position."

"Feng Xuan now has 1 soldiers, but Feng An has 1 soldiers, and the two brothers have more than [-] slaves, but the two counties managed by the brothers have only a few thousand households registered with the court. In Yongxi County, the registered population is only about [-] households, but he has more than [-] soldiers and more than [-] slaves."

This is where the confidence of these people lies.

Each commanding county can have several counties in one county, and there are only a thousand households on household registration, but the actual situation is that each person has more than ten thousand slaves and tens of thousands of soldiers.

"Actually, why don't I know that the household registration in Lingnan is chaotic, and many households are not registered as Qimin at all. The so-called household registration numbers are just to fool the court. Let's talk about Feng An, although he is only the prefect of Gaoliang, he can actually lead Gaoliang. There are more than 10,000 families of Han officials in four or five counties such as Liang and Zhuya, and there are tens of thousands of households of Han people."

Although the imperial court set up prefectures and counties in Lingnan, this kind of division is actually not very binding on these scumbags.

Feng An, who has 1 soldiers and more than [-] servants, is actually a local emperor who commands two thousand miles. Now he stands on the side of the court and wants to crusade against his own brother Feng Xuan. Who can really believe it.

To put it simply, Feng Xuan rebelled, and Feng An did not work hard. If Feng Xuan was defeated in the end, the Feng family would still have power.If Feng Xuan succeeds, then Feng An will still be a family.

Thinking about it this way, there is Ning Chunbu, the prefect of Yongping in Ning's side, maybe this is also the case.

"No matter what the Feng family and the Ning family are planning, they can't count against His Majesty." Li Jing closed the information, "Ning Changzhen, Feng Xuan and others raised troops on the grounds of opposing the abolition of the Southern Election, and they will definitely fail. After they fail, Ning The power of the Feng family will also be greatly damaged, and the imperial court will be able to further weaken the strength of these scumbags."

"Back then, among the eight major separatist forces in Lingnan, apart from Feng Ning and his family, Li Guangdu also once ruled Lingnan. Based on Yongping, he captured most of Yulin County and many territories in Shi'an County. But in the end, the stubborn resistance The imperial court was eventually defeated and died, and its Yongping County was also divided into two counties."

The Feng and Xian families have long since lost the close unity they had when Mrs. Xian was there. When Yang Guang recruited Feng An into the court, he successively served in the court and Hanzhong. Liangjun Tongshou.

After the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Feng An returned to Lingnan from Liaodong, so Feng An and Xian Baoche fought more and more fiercely, and finally turned swords.

Feng An finally defeated Xian Baoche with the help of the Qin army. Finally, Xian Baoche withdrew from Gaoliang and wanted to retreat to the Xian family's base camp, but was defeated by Feng An's Qin army, so the Xian family was finally brought back under Feng's command by Feng An.

"How long will it take to reach Nanhai City (Guangzhou City)?"

"almost."

Li Jing closed his eyes and meditated. Nanhai County, that is, Guangzhou, as the economic core of Lingbiao, is a place that many parties want to compete for. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, various forces repeatedly appeared on the stage. In the Sui Dynasty, the important position of Guangzhou was snatched by Guilin. At that time, the Sui Dynasty used Guilin as the ruling center of Lingnan.

However, Guangzhou’s position as the transportation center and strategic hub in south of the Five Ridges is unquestionable. Deng Wenjin, Yang Shilue, Gao Facheng, Xian Baoche, and Feng An competed here. In the end, Feng An led the Qin army to go south, finally defeated the other heroes, and captured Guangzhou. city.

But at this time the Qin army had arrived, so Feng An still failed to occupy Guangzhou in the end, and Guangzhou was handed over to the Qin army.

This time the imperial court let Li Jing serve as the prefect of Nanhai County concurrently. It is to guard this strategic point, which can be advanced, attacked and retreated. Today's Nanhai County is not only a strategic point of transportation hub, but also an important node of the Maritime Silk Road, a large sea trade port. Sending a general like Li Jing to guard in person is to guard against Feng An.

"Feng An's thirteen sons, I heard that all of them are brave and brave, and I will recommend them to your majesty to go to Luoyang. I want to borrow a few Mr. Feng to be the school captain!"

The intelligence officer immediately smiled, "That's good."
