Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 467
Ever since Zu Teng served under Lu Wang Gao Xiaoguan, he was recruited by Gao Cheng from the Ministry of Rites to the Ministry of Punishment.

As an official of the Criminal Ministry, he should not have gone out with the army. This matter has nothing to do with him. The army has its own military judge to maintain discipline.

It's just that Gao Cheng didn't give up on wooing Mrs. Xian, so he recruited Zu Ting to join the army.

In the original time and space, the blind old man was able to scare Chen Jun away with an empty city plan, and then chased and killed the enemy himself on horseback, protecting the environment and the people, which can be called great wisdom and courage.

When Gao Cheng was looking for candidates for the envoy under his tent, as expected, Zu Ting recommended himself, willing to join the Xianying army.

According to the previous plan, if Xian Ying was stubborn, he would instigate Xian Ting to lead the army to attack and kill. Even if it failed, it would still cause civil turmoil in his army, but Gao Cheng still hoped that the Virgin of Nanling would give positive feedback.

In the spring of the ninth year of Zhaode (556), on the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Zu Teng returned to Gaocheng's army and told the news that Xian Ying led [-] Fan soldiers from South Chen to meet him. He was the servant of the Ministry of punishment, and he was awarded the title of Marquis of Pengcheng County.

Immediately, they led [-] cavalry soldiers to build a pontoon bridge to cross the Lianjiang River to the east, and drove to Gaoliang County. Anyway, Xian Ying encountered only sporadic resistance along the way.

Xian Ying is not just the leader of the slang people in Gaoliang County. After more than 20 years of hard work, all the surrounding ethnic groups have joined her. The area under her jurisdiction extends from Yangjiang in the east, Hepu in the west, Leizhou Peninsula in the south, and Hainan Island, which is isolated overseas.

This is also the reason why Gao Cheng insisted on drawing her into his camp.

After all, it was too late for Chen Baxian to make a fortune. When Gao Cheng was already in the Central Plains, he had just risen as a force, and there was no time for him to integrate the forces under his command.

The slang tribe under Xian Ying's command is not so much a subordinate as a partner of the Nam Chen regime.

Chen Baxian has always only won the support of the slang, rather than really conquering them.

Of course, Gao Cheng does not have it now, but he will have time in the future to use cultural means instead of conquering by force.

Xian Ying's husband, Feng Bao, is Han. She herself was deeply influenced by Han culture, and she was also an active promoter of Han culture in Lingnan. As mentioned earlier, Xian Ying was Gao Cheng's extremely important help in governing Lingnan in the future.

On the nineteenth day of the first lunar month, after a seven-day long-distance raid, Gao Cheng's [-] cavalrymen arrived at Gaoliang City. Wait for the important figures of the Xian clan to meet them outside the city.

As the army approached, Xian Ying saw a handsome middle-aged man in black armor among the guards, and knew that this was Gao Cheng, the emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty. Because he leaked his tracks, he had no choice but to resolve Chen Baxian's suspicion.

Gao Cheng didn't know whether Xian Ying's words were true or not, but it didn't matter. Although the first Qi envoy died, his family received the compensation they deserved, and his son was also replaced by the shadow.

Little King Gao easily accepted Xian Ying's statement. He dismounted from his horse, jumped over the guards to help Xian Ying up, and said with emotion:
"Don't bring up the past again. In the future, to govern Lingnan and make the Han people live in harmony, you will rely more on your wife."

Xian Ying thanked En and got up, and Gao Cheng said many words of comfort to Feng Bao, Xian Ting and others.

Immediately issued an edict, worshiping Xianying as the general manager of Guilin, governing the land west of Gaozhou, establishing Leizhou on the Leizhou Peninsula, Qiongzhou on Hainan Island, and Jiaozhou in North Vietnam, etc. There are [-] households in Shiyi.

He also took Feng Bao as the governor of Gaozhou, bestowed the Duke of Gaoyang County, and had [-] households in the city.

Then worship Xian Ting as the governor of Leizhou, and he was granted the title of Duke of Yangchun County, with [-] households in Shiyi.

Gao Cheng also brought the seven-year-old Feng Pu to him. He had a great intention to bestow titles on Xian Ying, Feng Bao and his wife.

Randomly asked a few simple questions, Feng Pu answered each one fluently, Gao Cheng stroked his head and proposed to Xian Ying and his wife:

"This son is very intelligent, and I really like him. I want to match him with a daughter from the clan, and then marry a daughter of the Xian family for him. The son of the daughter of the clan will inherit the title of Duke of Gaoyang County in the future, and the son of the daughter of the Xian family will be named Duke of Songkang County." place."

When Xian Ying and Feng Bao heard the words, they were very grateful. Feng Pu didn't know why, but he also knelt down with his parents to thank him.

Gao Cheng’s arrangement completely captured the loyalty of Xian Ying and Feng Bao. If Feng servant wanted to continue his mother’s influence in the tribe, he would definitely marry a daughter of the Xian family. The next slang leader.

And Gao Cheng is also happy to see the combination of slang female leaders and Han scholar-bureaucrats, but after Feng Pu, it is impossible for the Feng family to marry with their tribes. Today's move is just to let Xian Ying and Feng Bao return their hearts. .

This is also the reason why Xiao Gao Wang Mingming has so many daughters, but he still wants to find a woman of the right age from the clan to marry. He can't let his daughter be wronged after marriage and respected with other women.

It's one thing not to care about it, but in the end it's still your own flesh and blood.

After a short rest in Gaoliang City, Gao Cheng led [-] Tibetan soldiers with Xian Ying to go to Guangzhou with him, and Chen Baxian sent Yu Wentai letters of more and more urgent words for help, and also decided to shrink his troops and fight a decisive battle with the Qi army. .

Because of Xian Ying's rebellion, Gao Cheng had almost reached the city of Guangzhou, and it was meaningless to block the Lingnan Passage at this time. We simply tried to defeat Gao Cheng's troops who invaded Guangzhou before the Northern Qi Fourth Army joined forces. Maybe there is a fighter.

As Chen Baxian reduced his troops to rescue Guangzhou, the three armies of Gao Jishi, Duan Shao, and Wu Mingche moved between the Nanling mountains for several months, and finally walked out of the mountains after defeating some of the defenders.

Although the three of them were concerned about Jun Shang's safety, Duan Shao and the others also wanted to rush on their way to support Gao Cheng when they learned that Chen Ba would return to aid first.

It's just that most of the three of them have infantry under their command, and they have been fighting for a long time. When the soldiers are exhausted and their manpower is exhausted, they have to take a rest.

At the same time, after learning that Gao Cheng had broken into Lingnan, Yu Wentai, who felt deeply chilled, no longer cared about the threat of Chuzhou, and led the main force southward, moved to the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and confronted Hu Luguang.

Conflicts broke out between the two sides from time to time, Hu Luguang had few troops and was at a disadvantage. Just when the western defense line was struggling, Yu Wentai suddenly withdrew his troops again.

At first, Hu Luguang thought it was a fraud and didn't dare to relax, but after sending sentry to investigate, he found that it was a real retreat, not a trick.

Just when Hu Luguang was puzzled by this, the secret agent lurking in Shu sent back information, which also revealed the real reason for the retreat of the Western Wei Dynasty: Yu Wentai was seriously ill.

When Gao Cheng heard the news, he couldn't help sighing deeply. This year is 556 AD, which is also the year of Yu Wentai's death.
