Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 290 County Lieutenant Li Jiancheng

"Under his post, Luo Cheng pays a visit to Prefect Li."

In front of the former Wuliluo City, which has been renamed Tongding City, Luo Cheng led his lieutenants and officers to welcome the new prefect Li Jing.

Luo Cheng's new boss has a very beautiful beard, he can be called a handsome man.

The beautiful long beard is black and straight, reaching to the navel.And he looks very strange and magnificent, his figure is burly but not stout, but very fit, just like a bodybuilder.Luo Cheng believed that if he took off his clothes, his muscle lines would be very beautiful.

No wonder Wei Zheng inquired about the news that this Duke Hua was praised by the late Emperor Yang Jianda because of his handsome appearance. It was the 17th year of Emperor Kaihuang, when the Sui Army first sent 30 troops to conquer Goguryeo. Li Jing, who was the governor of Fuzhou, was awarded by the emperor as the chief of the horse army of the Liao army. After the class teacher, Emperor Wen was amazed by his strength and bravery. He specially asked him to untie his jacket to look at it. On the outside, your official position will reach the highest position of a minister.

But Li Jing didn't just have a good skin.

Li Jing, courtesy name Daoxing, was an official in Longyou Tianshui.His father, Li Chao, was the governor of Yingzhou and Rongzhou in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.Li Jing has been good-looking since he was a child, and his physical strength is stronger than ordinary people. He has a beautiful long beard, is brave and good at archery, and his archery skills are extraordinary.

During the battle to destroy the Northern Qi Dynasty, Li Jing had already made his mark and was awarded the post of third division to Yitong.Later, he participated in the pacification of Yuchijiong's rebellion, was promoted to Kaifu, and was awarded the title of Duke of Pingkou County, enfeoffing [-] households in the city.

In the ninth year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign, he followed the great general Wang Shiji to attack Nanchen as the commander of the army, and was promoted to Shangkaifu after meritorious service.Later, Gao Zhihui and others in the south of the Yangtze River rebelled, and Li Jing followed Yang Su to quell the chaos in the south of the Yangtze River. After his class, he was appointed governor of Fuzhou.

Later, he sent troops to Liaodong with Wang Shiji and served as the general manager of the horse army.Although he failed to return from this expedition, he later participated in many battles with the Turks, and even escorted Princess Yicheng to the Turks to get married. Hundreds of people went to the rescue, and fought bloody for three days, killing a large number of Turkic soldiers and repelling the Turks.After the war, he was awarded the governor of Hanzhou by the emperor.

During the Renshou period, he served as the governor of Daizhou.

When today's son succeeded to the throne, Han Wang Yang Liang rebelled, and Li Jing led his troops to participate in the suppression of the rebellion. After the war, he was promoted to the Zhu Kingdom due to his meritorious service, and was awarded the title of General Youwuwei.

After that, he led his troops to pacify the barbarians who were in chaos, and led his troops to defeat Tuyuhun in Qinghai, and was promoted to Doctor Guanglu.

In the fifth year of Daye, the emperor drove west to tour, and when he arrived at Tianshui, his hometown, the emperor specially said that Li Jing was the owner of this place, and asked him to sit in front of the prince Yang Hao.

It was only in Longchuan Palace that he was ordered to be dismissed because he and Zuo Wuwei General Guo Yan had dissatisfaction with the emperor's westward tour.

More than a year after being dismissed from office, this time it was activated again.

Otherwise, Li Jing, the outstanding general of Youwuwei, would not have come to serve as the prefect of Liaodong County from the third rank.

Luo Cheng marveled at the fitness of this God of War, but Li Jing marveled at Luo Cheng's youth.

He looked Luo Cheng up and down for a while, and said with a smile in Longyou's official dialect, "I heard that Luo Yi had a white tiger heir, and seeing him today, I'm really amazed. Sure enough, there are heroes from generation to generation, and each generation is stronger than the next." Luo County Sheriff will be eighteen this year, right?"

Luo Cheng cupped his hands and replied, "It will be nineteen in a few days."

"Young, really young. But it's even more impressive to have such an impressive record at such a young age. I think the champion of the Han Dynasty back then was nothing more than that!"

Luo Cheng quickly shook his head, "Luo Cheng'an dares to compare with the champion."

Li Jing glanced past Luo Cheng, and looked at the military academy behind him. He felt a familiar smell from them. He nodded in satisfaction, "Very good, it is indeed a powerful army."

"Where's your father?" Li Jing asked Luo Yi.

Li Jing was originally the general of Youwuwei, and Luo Yi was originally the general of Youwuwei's Huben Lang, so to speak, he was also his old subordinate.Now that he is the prefect of Liaodong, Luo Yi, as the runner-up of the first army to capture Tongding City, should come to greet him.

"Back to the prefect, Duke Yan has handed over Tongding City to our Liaodong County soldiers for defense three days ago, and he led the First Army with 2000 troops to move to the bank of the Liao River to prevent the Goguryeo people from attacking from the ice when the Liao River is frozen. "

Li Jing smiled, and didn't seem to care about Luo Yi's rude behavior.

But Luo Cheng felt that Li Jing must be unhappy. Luo Yi left without waiting for Li Jing to take office, clearly dissatisfied with Li Jing's appointment as Liaodong prefect.Although Luo Cheng also received a reward from Duke Yan, he was also promoted to General Youwuwei.Obviously, Luo Yi still felt that he should be the prefect of Liaodong, thinking that Li Jing was here to pick peaches.

People say that heroes cherish heroes and cherish each other, but Luo Cheng feels that Luo Yi and this famous general seem to be a bit mutually exclusive.

"We will be colleagues and partners in the future, and I hope brother Shicheng will help me more." Li Jing was very polite to Luo Cheng, took his hand, and walked into Tongding City together.

Luo Cheng could only smile wryly, Li Jing is older than Luo Yi, what qualifications and status does this old handsome guy have, he participated in the battle to destroy Qi in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and he was not born at that time.

Liaodong Town is very big and small.

It is largely because the emperor swiped his finger in Linshuo Palace, so on the map, the scope of Liaodong County was established, almost the entire Liaodong Peninsula east of the Liaohe River was included in the scope of Liaodong County, and the northern part of the peninsula was also included. The land of a thousand miles has also been drawn in.

It is almost east of the Liaohe River, north of the Yalu River, and then north to Fuyu City, which is the Siping area of ​​later generations.Well, the later Liaoning Province is divided into two with the Liaohe River as the boundary, and the part east of the Liaohe River is regarded as the Liaodong County designated by the emperor.

According to this calculation, Liaodong County is thousands of miles from north to south, and five hundred miles from east to west, which is really big enough.

But Liaodong County is also small enough, because up to now, all the east of Liaohe River is in the hands of Goguryeo people. Now Liaodong County is actually located west of Liaohe River. in the land.

There is only one city in Liaodong County, and there is not even a single family of Sui people.

Maybe when the Liaohe River is really conquered, the Tongding City will be planned for Liaoxi County in the future.

Tongding City is now not only the county seat of Liaodong, but also the county seat of Tongding, and the town of Tongding Town.It's just that this city is really too small, it lives on a high hill, and only one horse can go in and out.

Although it is very dangerous militarily, as a city, it seems a bit small and inconvenient.

When Luo Yi broke through the city, almost all the defenders in the city were dead, and he killed all the rest.

There are also some people who used to farm and farm in nearby Goguryeo, as well as some merchants in the city, but Luo Yi directly distributed them to the army officers and soldiers as slaves.

So when Li Jing and Luo Cheng entered the city, what they saw was an empty castle.

The city with a circumference of four miles was empty, only Luo Cheng's county soldiers stood guard quietly.

Li Jing frowned.

"Where are the people in this city?"

"The Goguryeo people resisted stubbornly and could not hold out. After three months of siege, most of the defenders were killed or injured. After breaking the city, there were no prisoners." In one sentence, it also expresses the cruelty of war.

Li Jing understood the fate of those Goguryeo troops, "But there are always people and merchants in the city, right?"

"All rewards were given to the soldiers who broke the city as slaves."

Li Jing frowned even more, "What about the goods and money in the city?"

"It's all given to the soldiers."

What was left to Li Jing was really an empty city.

When Luo Yi left three days ago, he took everything he could take away, except that the castle couldn't be moved, and he left nothing to the old boss.

"Damn."

The good-tempered old handsome Li Jing couldn't help scolding his mother, his impression of Luo Yi was extremely bad.

Walking into the empty former city lord's mansion, Li Jing's face became even uglier. In such an empty city, what should he do as a prefect?
"Prefect, all [-] soldiers of our department have been transferred to Liaodong County soldiers, and the [-] supply soldiers and [-] civilian husbands who were originally subordinate to them have also been transferred to village residents according to the order."

Li Jing nodded after listening, this is the only one in Liaodong County now.

In addition to this empty city, fortunately there are 8000 people from Luo Cheng, otherwise he would really be a naked prefect.

"It's winter now, and there's no land to garrison." Li Jing sighed, "New Year's Eve is coming soon, and on the first day of the first month of next year, the army to conquer the east will start. At that time, the troops will be divided into three groups. If we can settle the town, we will go to the north." The road will also become the place where the main force passes. For this reason, the task of our Liaodong County is to build this place into the strongest front-line fortress, store and prepare food, grass and military equipment, and build a big camp in advance."

To put it bluntly, this Liaodong County is more like Qiaozhi, they just show the emperor's determination to recover Liaodong.And the current role is actually an engineering team, responsible for building the advance base.

Luo Cheng has no interest in such an errand.

But he also knew that Luo Yi had won it for him with great difficulty, and he couldn't refuse it, so he could only bite the bullet and continue.

Now they are building barracks and building roads. After the spring, they will probably be responsible for reclaiming wasteland and farming.

Li Jing turned the former city lord's mansion into the prefect's mansion.

Luo Cheng found a big house next to it, and asked someone to get a plaque with the name of Liaodong County Prime Minister's Office, and made it his own office.

Of the [-] soldiers under his command, half were stationed in the city to defend Wuliluo City, and half were still stationed in the southern battalion of the original city. As for the auxiliary soldiers and civilians, half were in the city and half were outside the city.

Just settled here.

Jun Weiyu Wenhuaji arrived with his subordinates.

The new county lieutenant rode Qinghai Shishicong, leading more than a hundred soldiers from the Qu family, followed by three thousand soldiers from Tongding Town. .

The county lieutenant and the county lieutenant are not in the same system. Although they are both county officials, the county lieutenant is the second in command of a county, presiding over general affairs and commanding the county soldiers, while the county lieutenant coordinates the troops stationed in the county.The Juncheng is similar to the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, Deputy Secretary and Senior Political and Legal Official, while the Junwei is equivalent to the Provincial Standing Committee and the Commander of the Provincial Military Region.

The county lieutenant was originally a position with little real power. Although he was a little higher in rank than the county lieutenant, he could not control the county soldiers, nor could he really command the frontier army of the Weifu. However, Yu Wenhuaji was obviously different. He was also a county lieutenant The town general of Tongding Town has an excess of [-] town soldiers.

Yu Wenhua and his side rode side by side, but it was Li Jiancheng, the eldest son of Wei Weiqing Tang Guogong Li Yuan, this young son was traveling with Yu Wenhua and from Huaiyuan Town, but he came to take up the post of county magistrate of Tongding County.

　Thanks to the vulgar youth, donated rice, Yu Ritian, I am the queen, twelve o'clock in the morning, and the chubby chubby who is about to get married, thank you!
