Chapter 955: Fan Town
"Father, although Jingzhao Mansion is now in decline, the court just can't take action. Once you have time, you will definitely pacify the Tang army."
The eldest son knelt in front of the bed, his face full of confusion.
"Now that we surrender to the Tang army, and the court will pursue it in the future, it will be a great disaster!"
Over the years, the central imperial guards have been continuously strengthening, but the strength of local vassal states has been decreasing. The Later Han initiated from Hedong, while the Later Zhou and Northern Song dynasties changed the central military heads of the imperial guards.
In recent years, those who rebel, such as Du Chongwei in the Later Zhou Dynasty, Li Yun and Li Chongjin in the early Song Dynasty, were all famous people, but they were still beaten to pieces. Tokyo's strength was impressive.
"Confused--" Li Hongyi coughed and cursed directly: "I'm even more confused than me."
"Now the Tang army is known as 100,000, Wang Yanchao is invincible, Yang Tingzhang obeys, Guo Congyi surrenders, Jingzhao Mansion comes to the rescue, how can Hezhong Mansion be protected? Can our only ten thousand people resist for a long time?"
"We will protect the army and the people from poverty and land. We are also depressed. How can we eat yellow sand every day?"
"It's better to take advantage of my old age and weakening, and I can sell the Bao Yi Army in just a few months to find a good future for you."
"Besides, even if the court comes back, I'm afraid I'll have closed my eyes long ago. How can the court hold you responsible?"
"Father is wise-" When the sons thought about this, they immediately understood that there were only benefits and no future troubles. It was really a good deal and a good surrender.
Seeing this, Li Hongyi smiled, closed his eyes, and said with regret: "I just got up from the troubled times, and when I closed my eyes, it was the troubled times. I just hope you can enjoy peace forever."
"Remember, don't follow the martial arts, be a civil servant. The most dangerous thing in troubled times is the warriors, and they will destroy their families at any time..."
...
At the same time, Zhao Zan, the governor of the Zhangyi Army, was shocked when he heard about this situation:
"Wang Yanchao has always been a veteran of Guanzhong, but he was defeated and surrendered. Is the Tang army really invincible?"
Speaking of which, Zhao Zan's identity is quite bizarre, comparable to Li Hongyi.
His father was Zhao Yanshou and his grandfather Zhao Dejun. On the way to suppress Shi Jingtang, the Khitans went south. Zhao Dejun, Zhao Yanshou and his son surrendered together. They were imprisoned by the Khitan king Yelu Deguang and moved to the north. Only Zhao Zan and his mother Princess Xingping stayed in Luoyang.
Later, the Khitan went south to destroy Jin, and his father Zhao Yanshou was valued and even received the emperor's verbal promise to serve the Khitans, so he wanted to be a son emperor. As a result, Yelu Deguang became the emperor of the Central Plains and established the "Great Liao".
Later, the Khitans beat grass valley in the Central Plains, which aroused public anger. Yelu Deguang could not bear the heat and died of death, so he made dried meat and returned to his country. Zhao Yanshou was captured by Yelu Ruan, the Emperor Shizong of Liao, who came to power in the coup, and died in desolateness in the Khitan.
At that time, Zhao Zan was also appointed as the governor of Hezhong and took the opportunity to stay in Hezhong Town.
Later, his father and ancestors both died in the Khitan, and the Later Han Dynasty accepted him. Later, they followed Guo Rong to conquer Huainan and were appointed as the Baoxin Army (Hefei).
In the early Song Dynasty, he participated in the pacification of Li Chongjin and was appointed as the governor of the Zhangyi Army. He became part of the military prefectures in the Destruction of Nan, and was specifically responsible for suppressing the various ethnic groups of Dangxiang, Hun and Qiang.
The long-term riding and jumping made him not panic. He even thought deeply about what benefits he could get.
Because he needed to suppress foreign races, he was allowed to act cheaply. In addition to the trade, he had a lot of money and raised nearly 10,000 infantry and cavalry under his command, second only to Wang Yanchao and Feng Jiye of Lingzhou.
"Wait, I can't make a decision at will!" Zhao Zan shook his head and frowned. His situation was unusual at this time.
Not to mention anything else, Yao Neibin, Wang Yansheng, Dong Zunhui of Huanzhou, and Feng Jiye of Lingwu were all defense lines that the court besieged the Dingnan Army and protected the northwest.
Therefore, Zhao Kuangyin not only did not cut off his power, but instead continued to delegate power, trade and tariffs against them, and there was no such thing as a military supervisor. In this way, the border troops in the northwest would be strong, and the Dingnan Army would bow down and not dare to do anything randomly.
In this way, the embarrassing thing is that once these powerful generals of the court choose to suppress the Tang army, they must go south to his Jingzhou and then go to Chang'an Jingzhao Prefecture.
In this way, how could he dare to act rashly?
"It's better to report to Gyeongju to know!"
Zhao Zan thought about it again and again, but he still did not dare to act rashly. He could only remain neutral and see what the situation was!
Yao Neibin of Qingzhou was originally the Waqiao Pass envoy of Youyun. Guo Shao surrendered during the Northern Expedition. Later, after Zhao Kuangyin founded the country, he came to Qingzhou and served as the governor of Qingzhou and the commander of the salt in Qingbai. He suppressed Dangxiang, which made the Dangxiang people dare not go south for more than ten years, and called it "Yao Dazhe".
Hearing Zhao Zan's words, he was so violent that he was much more peaceful: "Has Jingzhao Mansion been lost?"
His wife and children were both in the Khitan and surrendered alone. He had long lost his mind about making achievements. He heard about this situation and did not even think about it. He directly ordered: "Transfer to Dong Zunhui, the envoy of Tongyuan Army!"
Immediately, Dong Zunhui, the governor of Luozhou and also served as the envoy of Tongyuan Army, also learned about this situation and frowned.
Dong Zunhui's uncle was Gao Xingzhou. He was arrogant and rude to Zhao Kuangyin, and offended him very much. Later, his old boss Han Tong was killed by Zhao Kuangyin and felt resentful. However, because his mother had lost the Khitan, Zhao Kuangyin later helped him find him back, so he was very kind.
This special emotion made him struggle with each other, and how could it be complicated?
"I'm just an envoy who has been mobilizing troops in private and cannot be the leader. I'd better report it to the court!"
Dong Zunhui shook his head and said with a complicated expression.
Yang Shifu quickly attacked Guozhou with Wenmo's light cavalry, captured Du Shenjin, and guarded Tongguan with five thousand infantry, and merchants were allowed to enter but not leave.
In this way, the east gate of Guanzhong has been blocked.
However, news of the fall of Kyoto Prefecture still spread to Tokyo, and the whole city of Tokyo was shocked.
"My uncle is gone, either?" Zhao Kuangyin was furious.
The ministers dared not speak.
Zhao Guangyi, who was standing beside him, also looked anxious, this was his uncle.
"There are so many vassal states in Guanzhong who are so ignoring. If it weren't for the fall of Guozhou, the Jingzhao Prefecture, and the Fengxiang Army, we wouldn't know what happened!"
Zhao Kuangyin glanced at Wang Renzhan, Wudesi, and was sorry that he would not be able to make a strong man.
"After the loss of Guozhou, Guanzhong will eventually become a gateway. We must not let it succeed."
Zhao Kuangyin looked angry: "I ordered Han Chongyun as the envoy to recruit the west, and led 30,000 troops to Guozhou."
Han Chongyun, one of the ten brothers of Yishe, one of the six heroes of the "Chenqiao Mutiny", was the commander of the Palace Front Office, and the inspector of the Palace Front Office, and the deputy inspector was abolished, and Han Chongyun became the chief officer of the Palace Front Office.
It can be said that he was the general who guarded Zhao Kuangyin's house and was willing to go out now.
