Chapter 567
In July [-], people in various provinces of the Far Eastern Dynasty became more dissatisfied with the "Treaty of Tielan Pass" signed by Wang Jing, and the protests turned into violent conflicts. open.

"Mr. Qing's side! Catch the culprit who betrayed the country!"

"The dynasty is incompetent! Lose power and humiliate the country!"

"Against tax increases! We demand to live!"

The 300-year-old conflict in the dynasty was completely aroused with the signing of the treaty of humiliating power and humiliating the country. The common people threw away their hoes, picked up crude swords, and gathered in the town.

Countless people, like streams, eventually turned into a vast ocean, requiring officials to flee in embarrassment, and the speed at which towns were lost was astonishing.

Wang Jing urgently mobilized the provincial garrison troops to suppress them. Facing the surging insurgent troops, the garrison troops in each province were beaten back steadily. In just two weeks, Wang Jing lost control of the five provinces. control, the chaotic situation intensified.

"Bring back the Central Army! Send the Northern Army to the south! Call the South to suppress it!"

Facing the snowflake-like urgent call for help, the emperor urgently ordered the whole country to enter a state of emergency, and dispatched a field army to join in the action of exterminating the rebels.

The Central Army was far away on the western border. Marshal Lan Yu set off slowly on the grounds that the road was blocked. The Central Army could only advance twenty miles a day.

The southern army used the mercenary empire's imminent move as an excuse, and just mobilized two infantry flag regiments to wander around the neighboring provinces and then ran back to their own defense area. The angry cabinet chief assistant Zhou Rulin yelled at them, but now they have nothing to do.

Facing the menacing uprising, the Northern Army stationed in the northern border area did not hesitate to dispatch troops and generals after receiving the order to suppress them, and began to attack the various insurgents.

The 30 Northern Army has been guarding the border all year round, and their combat power is fierce. They are divided into ten groups and are still fighting consecutively. Two provinces were taken back.

"Confer Zhou E, Marshal of the Northern Army, King of Zhenbei!"

In order to boost morale and boost the morale of the army, the emperor Long Han was rewarded by a prince as soon as he made a move. This has not happened in the history of the Far East Dynasty for hundreds of years. This is the king of the opposite sex.

The governors of various provinces saw that the Northern Army Marshal Zhou E had obtained such great benefits, and they immediately became enthusiastic. They recruited soldiers one after another, and fought hard to encircle and suppress the rebel army. Of course, they also received a lot of rewards. It's already worth a silver coin, and you can't ask for it.

Facing the smog and chaos in the interior of the Far Eastern Dynasty, with Lin Chuan's efforts, the three provinces under his control still maintained sufficient stability and stability.

After a month of training, the size of the Nanchuan Army has expanded to 41 banner regiments. With such a large force guarding the border, no matter whether it is the rebel army or the dynasty army who suppressed bandits from all walks of life, they dare not touch it easily. To Nanchuan army troops are detours.

The temporary headquarters of the Nanchuan Army was set up in Qingmuchuan. Compared with the complicated and chaotic situation in the dynasty, there were wars everywhere, and the fighting was a mess. Apart from the heavy security, there was not much tension here.

"General, there is news from Wang Jing that you are going to be canonized as the King of Nanchuan. He hopes that we will send troops to suppress the bandits." Liu Zichen stood with his hands down and reported to Lin Chuan with a smile.

Lin Chuan smiled and asked, "How many kings has Wang Jing conferred recently?"

Liu Zichen said sarcastically: "In addition to the generals, Wang Jing canonized 31 kings of the opposite sex, and there are more than 200 dukes."

Hearing that Wang Jing had recently conferred so many princes and dukes, Lin Chuan was also surprised. He joked, "When did princes become so worthless?"

Liu Zichen smiled, but didn't talk to him.

The treasury of the Far East Dynasty was originally empty, and its national strength was not as good as before. Although it was slightly restored with Lin Chuan's assistance, with Lin Chuan's resignation, some of the original policies that benefited the people were all abandoned. The indemnity of gold coins, Wang Jing, who had an empty treasury, had to increase taxes. Originally, the people were dissatisfied with the treaty that forfeited power and humiliated the country. This is a vicious circle, which will only push the people to their opposite.

In the past, if the people were dissatisfied, some scholars stood up to defend the dynasty, but now the treaty signed by Wang Jing is unacceptable to scholars. They give lectures and organize demonstrations in various places, and instead become the leaders of troubles.

Wang Jing ordered the arrest of these scholars, but the scholars have a high prestige in the hearts of the illiterate people. A little incitement can immediately start a prairie fire. This is why the situation of the dynasty is getting more and more difficult. They have lost the hearts of the people. The basis for domination has been lost.

Lin Chuan felt deeply sorry to see the Far Eastern Dynasty become what it is today. He originally hoped to assist the emperor so that the dynasty could create a peaceful and prosperous world in his mind through top-down reforms, but he overestimated his ability.

Although Emperor Long Han was ambitious to rejuvenate the dynasty, he did not want Lin Chuan to be too powerful, so when Lin Chuan was about to uproot those great nobles, Emperor Long Han stopped Lin Chuan, and now these noble forces He started a counterattack and regained control of the government. Lin Chuan was forced to quit. He felt a deep sense of frustration, and it was always unreliable to rely on the emperor's support.

"I don't want to receive an imperial edict." After thinking for a moment, Lin Chuan knocked on the table and said.

Liu Zichen immediately understood: "This subordinate understands."

It is too simple for the officials who want to deliver the decree to disappear without anyone noticing it.

The reason why Lin Chuan did not accept the title of king of the Far Eastern Dynasty is very simple, that is, he has been completely disappointed with what the Far Eastern Dynasty has done so far. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the building of the Far Eastern Dynasty is about to collapse, and he does not want to become the Far Eastern Dynasty. The funerary objects of the people have earned a notoriety of suppressing the common people.

"Any news about Xiao Zhan and the others?" Lin Chuan raised his head and asked.

Liu Zichen shook his head helplessly: "General, we have sent countless spies into the Far East region. The news is that the soldiers who went out for the expedition finally appeared in Liusha City, and then lost the news..."

Lin Chuan ordered: "Send more people and be sure to find them."

Now the situation of the new Far Eastern Dynasty is complicated and confusing, there is chaos everywhere, and the war is imminent. Although the newly formed Nanchuan Army has strong troops, they are all recruits after all, and there is a shortage of generals. Lin Chuan has no confidence that he can survive in the troubled times. Stay undefeated.

Those generals who followed Lin Nuoyan to the expedition were all experienced generals and won the trust of Lin Chuan, so Lin Chuan urgently needed to rescue them to restore the reputation of the Nanchuan Army.
