I, the patron saint of the frontier of the Tang Dynasty, was forced to rebel

Chapter 73

The entire Tang Dynasty was filled with a depressive atmosphere, and all areas suddenly fell into a strange tranquility.

However, everyone understands that this is the prelude to the storm!

The third prince, Li Ke, failed to compete for the throne, so he withdrew from the court and returned to Anzhou to continue to be his governor.

Li Tai was not at ease, and sent his cronies to follow him, saying that he was inspecting the situation in Anzhou to make adjustments.

In fact, this so-called confidant was beheaded as soon as he arrived in Anzhou!
On the other hand, in Qianzhou, the grandson's family's ambitions are inflated.

On the surface everything is in peace, the imperial court issued an order to be sympathetic to the people, and Chang Sun Chong still complied.

Behind the scenes, Changsun Wuji controls everything, waiting for the opportunity to act.

Even, secretly sending people to contact the researchers of Lingzhou, they actually created the initial artillery!
There are a total of [-] seats, large and small, and the minimum range can reach three miles.

Almost all the cannons replaced by Qin Mu's army needed to be destroyed in a centralized manner, but there were always those who leaked out and got them.

The imperial court is preparing for the enthronement of the fourth prince Li Tai.

Qin Qiong, a group of veterans, and several other princes jointly wrote a letter and sent it to Changsun Wuji.

"The general meaning is very clear, help your son manage Jiangnan Road well, don't understand any crooked thoughts."

Changsun Wuji naturally dismissed such letters.

"My lord, there is another piece of news. Now the military generals in the court have become the main faction, and they are seeking stability. The civil servants have formed a weak side. Gao Shilian, as the new captain, has his power emptied!"

Hearing such words, Changsun Wuji was also a little surprised.

It seems that the civil strife in the court will continue to become more serious!
With the entire Jiangnan Road in their hands, no one knows the real strength behind Changsun Wuji, but they are only worried about the suspicion of rebellion.

a few days later.

The new emperor of the Tang Dynasty ascended the throne, and the news spread throughout the country through various people.

Li Tai became the new emperor and was officially crowned.

The heavy and oppressive atmosphere is spreading wildly. In the words of those charlatans, the country is in turmoil and evil spirits are rampant!
In Lingzhou City, Qin Mu looked into the distance with his deep eyes.

Everywhere has a new look, the cement roads extend in all directions, and the city walls have also been reinforced.

In Lingzhou City alone, someone who hasn't been here for a long time will definitely think that he has come to the wrong place.

There is a gun tower every few hundred meters on the city wall, and the black gun mouth is like a giant beast opening its bloody mouth!
Due to the continuous actions of small countries in the border areas, the pressure has doubled.

A few kilometers away, a blockhouse was built at intervals, and more than [-] musketeers were stationed there, with two artillery pieces.

There are more than 50 such bunkers in the entire desert!
The Turks in the north have now been completely wiped out, and the entire region has been controlled in order to speed up assimilation.

Zhuge Liang ordered the garrison to defend, and he selected manpower from the local people for training and then went to work.

In addition, the border between the two regions was opened, business interoperability was established, and a large number of Han people were relocated to settle down.

The common people are naturally worried about the war, but through a series of publicity, and Wang Shanhe from the bank has given huge benefits.

Anyone who migrates to the Mongolian region can choose a land within a mile radius and receive a subsidy of 100 taels of silver!

As far as these two conditions are concerned, they are already attractive enough.

I was also worried about liars, so I added a rule that you must live for ten years before you can change the region, and school teachers and knowledgeable people are preferred.

This is cultural assimilation!
However, Bohai and Shiwei in the northeast have been fighting for many years, and have even repeatedly committed joint crimes, and now they have formed an alliance.

According to the secret report of the spies, the Jinhui Duhufu turned out to be the leader.

Conspired for many years to unify Bohai and Shiwei into a united state.

According to modern thinking, this is the Federal State!
Millions of troops from Ulaanbaatar to the direction of Daxing'anling, all guarded tightly!
The Anbei Protectorate's Mansion, which borders the Jinhui Protectorate's Mansion, seemed extremely nervous.

The imperial soldiers and horses could not support them, and their own strength was weak.

If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will be annexed!
The country is in turmoil, border areas are more frequent, and the situation is more complicated.

Fortunately, the entire Guannei Road is guarded by Qin Mu, and it seems to be relatively safe at present.

"King Xian, the location of the Bohai Sea is the key, and Youzhou is on the edge. If there is a war, the other party can carry out sea transportation. We are very passive!"

Lin Quan, who holds the latest report, knows the seriousness of the matter better than others.

Qin Mu stared at the map with cold eyes, picked up a charcoal pencil and drew a circle directly on Pingzhou!

"Call Yue Fei over here immediately."

"Yes!"

Lin Quan glanced at the map and understood.

The virtuous king wants to attack Pingzhou!

At present, Lingzhou and other places have almost emptied Shanzhou, Lanzhou and other places for the sake of population.

It's just that the delay in attacking is not due to lack of ability, but because it doesn't want to occupy.

Shanzhou and other places are located on the border, close to the desert, and there are many countries like Tuyuhun.

It is impossible to stabilize in a short period of time, so keeping these two states caught in the middle is also the root of stability.

No one dared to act without authorization, and the court could not intervene.

But Pingzhou is different. It borders Youzhou with a vast land and rich resources and is still located in the Bohai Sea. It is an excellent seaport. It goes directly to the Yellow Sea and Jeju Island.

Even, think about the future, head straight to the Pacific Ocean from this location!
At present, what Qin Mu is worried about is nothing else. Puzhou is located in the center, so he can directly send troops to attack Fenzhou and Daizhou, then enter Yizhou, and finally complete the occupation of Youzhou and Pingzhou.

In the whole process, it is necessary to fight with more than 80 troops, and this has to be done without support from other states.

At night, Yue Fei changed horses all the way from Puzhou to Lingzhou.

"Master Lin, I don't know why the virtuous king called me?"

"Bohai!" Lin Quan said a place name with a smile, then turned and left with his hands folded.

Yue Fei was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted and walked to the City Lord's Mansion.

"The virtuous king."

"Get up and talk. I haven't seen you for a long time. Is there any special situation?"

Qin Mu always has respect for Yue Fei, after all, he is a famous general in history.

Yue Fei frowned slightly, "Yes, the five prefectures in the Taihang Mountains and other places have already formed an alliance. It seems that they intend to establish themselves as kings, but they have not done so positively."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Qin Mu was a little surprised.

In the Taihang Mountain area, there are a lot of Bingzhou, Xingzhou, Jizhou and so on, but the location belongs to the coast and is not valued by the court at all, so there are few soldiers and horses.

He knows very well how serious the corruption in this area is!
Even forming an alliance is nothing to be afraid of.

"Just let them make trouble, and when we are free, these idiots will be punished!"

"King Xian, this problem is not a big deal, but they sent 20 troops to block all the three roads extending from Puzhou, and no trade is allowed!"

"Hmph! It seems that these idiots really want to die!"

Qin Mu is extremely angry, what is most lacking now is money, and trade is the biggest source of silver.

Also, there are six bank branches and hundreds of business houses in that area, and it is not known what happened after they were blocked.

"Have our men come out?"
