Li Chongjiu said, "Dou Jiande is not the king of Gao Shida. Zhang Jin said that this person is benevolent and ambitious, flexible and courteous. He is better than Liu Bei at the end of the Han Dynasty."
Su Su obviously doesn’t believe it. "Although Liu Xuande is down and out, he is also an imperial clan and studied under the famous Lu Zhi, Zheng Xuan, Dou Jiande and Tian She. How can he be compared with being illiterate?"
Li Chongjiu laughed and stopped talking. When another horse rode fast, he said, "Tell the prefect that Dou Jiande sent elegant Xiandou Line Niang to make Zhao Xiancheng please return to the city quickly."
Su Su hummed a word, "Everyone else is the enemy before the enemy, but Dou Jiande is the enemy before the enemy."
Li Chongjiu said, "Dou Jiande’s move is for us to compromise, so we can go back and meet these two people."
After Li Chongjiu returned to the city, he directly entered the Shuaifu. Before he arrived in the hall, he could hear Zhao Wansan, an elegant and virtuous girl in the lobby, talking.
"Uncle Zhao deceived Wei Daoer, so his father offended him with his words. He said it was a last resort. I hope Uncle Zhao won’t go to the bottom of his heart and he will make amends to you." A female voice must be Dou Xian Niang.
"This matter has passed, and Duke Dou is kind to me. Should I blame him for this matter?"
"Zhao Xiong, it’s Duke Dou’s intention to see Li Taishou later."
Speaking, Li Chongjiu has already entered the hall. Elegant Xian is dressed in coarse cloth. Tsing Yi has a somewhat vicissitudes of life, but Dou Xian Niang is dressed in snow. After seeing Li Chongjiu, her eyes are somewhat folded.
"It’s been almost a year since the two Zhao Jiabao said goodbye."
Elegant xian got up and said with a smile, "light y and n flies this year, and the satrap, Northern Yi Dinan, lost the night. This year, J and jīng are far better than Gao."
Li Chongjiu said, "Ashamed shame is nothing compared with Dou Gong. But do you want me to know how to hunt by stationing 100 thousand troops at the border? "
Elegant xian laughed. "The satrap is misunderstood."
Dou Xian Niang said, "Li Chongjiu, we beat Wang Xuba at the risk of freezing to death, but it’s better to take advantage of Yixian in the name of Dou Gong. Has this ever happened?"
Li Chongjiu retorted when he saw Dou Xianniang speak. "Is it really a joke that I took the name of Dou Gong?"
Dou Xian Niang said, "You also argued that our army had just defeated Wang Xu and couldn’t pull out three Li, so you took the opportunity to enter Yixian. Didn’t you borrow our strength?"
Li Chongjiu said, "When I sent Zhao Zanfu to Raoyang Dou Gong to discuss the total felling of the king, Dou Gong didn’t agree. I defeated Song Jingang and took Gu Jun to gain momentum. Can I predict in advance that Dou Gong Wang had to pull the same alliance, but Dou Gong took advantage of people’s unprepared to turn back?"
"Don’t you dare to satirize my father!" Sinus Niang Huo Ran rises.
Li Chongjiu put his arms across his chest and said, "Why didn’t you do it when you were outnumbered at Zhaojiabao? Are you going to do it this time?"
Dou Xian Niang smells this face, Se Yiqing, and this Li Chongjiu is the brave champion of the three armed forces, and he is not asking for it.
"Line Niang is not polite!" Listen to elegant xian scold sinus line niang bulging to sit.
Elegant sage said, "Don’t care if Li Taishou’s children are not sensible. You also know that Song Jingang is the king’s department. Dou Gong defeated Wang Xuba and collected other departments. This Song Jingang also had a long time ago to surrender to our army, but now the satrap intercepted Yi County’s generals halfway."
Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "Brother Gao, when I lost more than a thousand soldiers in a fierce battle in Song Jingang, it was still not easy for me to go to the county. After that, I repeatedly designed and rebelled against General Song Jingang. Only then did I win Yixian. I dare to ask what contribution Duke Zhong made. I have heard of gloves everywhere. Duke Dou of the White Wolf also really has to talk. Do we have to hand over Yixian?"
Elegant xian saw Li Chongjiu’s words like a knife when he thought about his heart. It seems that Li Chongjiu refused to spit it out when he ate Yixian.
So the elegant sage said, "Since the satrap refused to give up Yixian, you can also see that the king of Hebei Province and the king of Hebei Province died one after another. Dou Gongcheng’s legacy is not only to overthrow the evil king, but also to compete for the future. What does Li Taishou think?"
Well, Li Chong-jiu’s heart finally reached the stage. First, the soldiers were under siege and deliberately cared about Yixian’s ownership. Speaking of it, it was just to find an excuse. Li Chong-jiu said, "I am an old imperial general, but after all, I have also been treated with kindness and won’t be an loyalist enemy. If Dou Gong-you have a heart in heaven, I would be very willing to wipe my eyes."
Elegant xian asked again, "can the satrap Dou Gong win heaven?"
Li Chongjiu laughed and said, "I don’t have such foresight, but when the Qin Dynasty lost its deer, it was a total of three feet to clear the frost, and it was as good as when the Emperor Gaozu Dou Gong was born in poverty. If you want to see your own strategy in the future."
Elegant xian dou xian Niang listened to Li Chongjiu, and Dou Jiande was more happy than Liu Bang, but she didn’t pay attention to Li Chongjiu’s actual nonsense.
Elegant sage said, "Dare to ask the satrap’s ambition? Is it just a county in the valley? "
Of course, it’s not Gu Yi County. Li Chongjiu’s heart is like this, but on the surface, it says, "I have no ambition. The so-called Gu Taishou is only Gu Yi County, but for the time being, if I have a master, I will offer it to the county. Of course, if Dou Gong can defeat Xue Shixiong Duan Da and seize the secluded Yan in the future, I can be driven by Dou Gong."
Listen to Li Chong-jiu’s statement. The elegant virtuous sinus mother is skeptical, but she still doesn’t believe it. Li Chong-jiu thought that she was not afraid of your guess anyway.
When elegant xian dou xian Niang nodded at each other’s glances, both sides talked about many practical things, mainly to discuss that the two families are not hostile to each other
Although Dou Jiande won the Valley County by law, it was also considered that Li Chongjiu was not his enemy’s goodwill. For Dou Jiande, the main enemies at present are Xue Shixiong in the north of the imperial court and Da Suo in the south. With the help of grassland cavalry, Li Chongjiu is a hard bone to chew for the time being. No, his current goal is that the two sides are not hostile. He can also temporarily tolerate Li Chongjiu’s occupation of Valley County and Li Chongjiu’s peace with Dou Jiande, so he finally doesn’t worry about the danger of making war in the south. Give him a year or two to digest and integrate the forces of Valley County in peace. So the success of the two
Chapter two hundred and seventeen An Min Yang Wang
After receiving the reply from Li Chongjiu, the elegant Xiandou Niangniang, that is, M: ǎnyi, left for half a month, and came to the news that King Changle (Note 1), who built an altar in Leshou County, Hejun County, Dou Jiande, showed his determination to dominate Hebei.
After Dou Jiande reached an agreement, Li Chongjiu stayed in Su Su, Zhao Wansan, a civil servant, and Gao Chu, Wei Chijingde and other generals were responsible for the training of troops. Li Chongjiu also changed 500 army cavalry to the standing service of county cavalry, and Li Chongjiu gave them the same silk reward every year. These soldiers were selected from nine thousand times riding with Li Chongjiu, and they were equipped with armored leather harnesses, and one person and three horses were far better than ordinary cavalry.
The five hundred cavalry troops were stationed in Lingqiu County, Yanmen County (Note 2), and Feihu County, Gujun County, were 50 miles apart.
Now the situation in Yanmen County has been plundered by Turks since two years ago when Yang Guang was surrounded by Turks in Yanmenhe County, Fenyang Palace. After several cities achieved fruitful results, they recovered slightly but were rebelled by Liu Wuzhou. After Liu Wuzhou took refuge in Turks, he led an army to attack Yanmen.
Liu Wuzhou’s army soldiers are strong and sharp, Yanmen County, and Chen Xiaoyi, the county magistrate, lost Wang Zhi in repeated battles. Wutai County, Yanmen County, Alcohol County, is now packing up the beaten army and retreating to the complex. When the county was besieged by Liu Wuzhou, Chen Xiaoyi repeatedly asked Jinyang to stay with Li Yuan for help. As a result, the news was like a stone sinking into the sea. When there was no news, the road in Taiyuan County was broken. Chen Xiaoyi, Wang Zhi, distinguished himself as a lone soldier. However, the two of them still did not drop Liu Wuzhou and continued to confront each other.
Liu Wuzhou, five counties in Yanmen County, occupied three counties, and Chen Xiaoyi held on to Lingqiu County, but temporarily ignored it. It was not the strategic position that was not important. It was the most seriously damaged when the former Turks invaded Yanmen. Two years later, it was still deserted here. Now Li Chongjiu decided to rebuild Lingqiu County, and the purpose of rebuilding Lingqiu County was naturally that Yanmen wedged into a bridgehead, and the valley county barrier resisted Liu Wuzhou. In addition, it also ensured that the business road of Huaihuang Town in Feihu County was smooth.
Of course, the reconstruction and restoration work is not only a valley county in Lingqiu County, Li Chongjiu, but also needs to rebuild Laishui County, which was abandoned because of rogue looting. Although Song Jingang lost, there are still many rogue mountain thieves and many people who are worried that rogue bandits would rather hide in the mountains than stay in the mountains. Let Li Chongjiu let Wei Chijingde Gaochu and others lead troops to encircle and encircle the land, which is also a practical training opportunity for the newly established county soldiers. At the same time, the people will also let them feel at ease and settle down in the mountains.
Li Chong-jiu, a refugee who defected to the mountain thief, has settled down and strived to let the refugees resume farming in these three counties this year. At this time of year, winter wheat can’t catch up, let alone miss the spring ploughing. Su Su sent the way of planting spring wheat to the refugees to let them farm with peace of mind this year, and the annual tax will be halved in the third year. This policy is adopted. Every day, people in Valley County have turned to various prefectures and counties to ask for citizenship.
Seeing this, Li Chongjiu couldn’t help sighing that at the beginning, the king had to uproot and plunder the valley, but it was only one year. According to the statistics of the great cause for seven years, there were more than 37.2 million people in the valley county. By now, it has withered to less than 100,000. It really takes one year for destruction, but it takes ten years for construction.
Throughout the present Hebei Central Plains, such as Dou Jiande and Du Fuwei, the masses are all busy annexing forces, vying for population, wantonly expanding the army and attacking the city, plundering money and grain, and making the more people, the better, and the stronger their strength. They believe that of course, there are many people and the natural forces are numerous.
On seizing Dou Jiande and Du Fuwei by force, of course, but Li Chongjiu’s advantage is not here. It is also important for people to turn their backs in troubled times. If people are stable and prosperous, their hopes will rise to the future, and the territory of others will be easier to digest. It is also a part of the situation to compare the strength of people.
Of course, the disadvantages of this development are also great, that is, it is too slow to look forward to it. As the saying goes, it is only when you get rich that you can establish Zhu Chong’s rebel army. When there was a shortage of rations in Huai Right, you still took root after eating people. This is the only way to pay attention to courtesy, integrity and shame. Although Zhang Shicheng won the hearts of the people, the people of the city were willing to talk about his death with the people. Xie Baoqing Yang died without complaining about Taizhou Zhang, and finally defeated Zhu Yuanzhang.
If Li Chongjiu wants to catch up with Li Yuan and Shi Biao, he must first accumulate in the Central Plains and cultivate his own name, while the grassland does not have to take advantage of his name to expand his power. After all, the grassland rarely talks about benevolence and righteousness, but prefers to respect the strong king.
As for Tang gaozu, they must use the Lian Heng Road to curb their potential speed. Now Shi Biao himself has repeatedly urged the letter to tell the truth. There has been no delay in attacking the east. Shi Biao will not attack the east. As long as Sui Jun does not attack the east, he will not advance eastward to reinforce, and as long as the Chinese Sui army does not advance eastward, then Tang gaozu will not dare to take the lead from Jinyang. This is equivalent to a domino comparison. History has been delayed for half a year. So Li gaozu has not attacked the east, and the plan to seize it will be greatly delayed than history.
But Shi Biao didn’t reply now, but then the elders in the grassland began to rush Li Chongjiu again, and they didn’t want to make it too stiff, so they arranged the garrison defense in Gu County and led the army back to the grassland.
After the end of the year in the 13th year of the Great Cause, Li Chongjiu led the grassland cavalry through the snow to return to the grassland from Feihu County via Lingqiu County. When passing through Lingqiu County, you can see the ragged people walking in the snow like Shan Ye people. Many people didn’t even have their shoes frozen black and blue.
When people saw loyalists hiding in succession, Li Chongjiu felt that qiguài, when Wang Mahan went to find out, learned that these people in Lingqiu County had just got the official spring wheat seeds and sent them to them, and they swallowed them all in a blink of an eye.
Li Chongjiu immediately ordered Wang Mahan to take these people to Wang Mahan, and immediately took hundreds of cavalry to collect them everywhere. After that, he took the ranks and caught more than 30 spring wheat seeds in one breath, but privately cooked them. Li Chongjiu suddenly looked and saw that he had sent them spring wheat seeds. This one was missing half of it, and the rice porridge in the earthen pot was simmering with a small fire, and it was boiling and bubbling.
On the other hand, more than 30 people’s hands and feet are holding the rope. Looking at the side, all the troops are scared and their legs are weak. When Li Chongjiu saw this, he said with a long sigh, "It is my parents who blame me for being ashamed of you."
"But the law and discipline can’t be violated. If everyone is like this, the wasteland in Lingqiu County will not be reclaimed. When the time comes, yiyàng will starve to death. It is the difference between early death and late death. People will all be dragged to whip the old, weak, women and children and give them spring wheat seeds. If they commit another crime, the criminal law will be doubled."
Say Li Chongjiu turned around and left, and then he came to strip and whip. Listening to that scream, Li Chongjiu’s face jumped and endured for half a day before he left with a sigh.
This horse will come to a time when there is not enough food and grass, and rice merchants will seize the opportunity to hoard goods. At this time every year, a large number of people will starve to death. Li Chongjiu will treat more than 100,000 people, and his own food reserves will only barely keep the ranks enough to eat. Of course, this is several times more than the rebellion against the king in other places, not to mention the army of the ogre king Zhu Can
A few days later, Li Chongjiu led an army to Huaihuang Town to take a short rest. Liu Yi, Zhou Xu and Ji Chuan, three civil servants from Huaihuang Town, immediately came to visit Li Chongjiu, and everyone was reunited after such a long separation.
It’s a big deal not to see Huaihuang Town for a year. Now the grass market in the north of the city has developed into a city that is not inferior to the city’s attached city. According to Zhou Xu, there are more than 3,000 Hu merchants and merchants in all directions here, and even there are merchants from Koguryo in the western regions. Even in winter, Huaihuang Town is a thriving scene.
Without the financial support of Huaihuang Town, Li Chongjiu’s large-scale expenditure on the South Army would not have been able to maintain the city’s establishment less than two years ago, which has brought continuous support to Li Chongjiu. However, when Li Chongjiu heard this, it was more worried. Huaihuang Town is at the front line of Turkic Liu Wuzhou forces, and once the war starts, it will be at the forefront. Will it not greatly damage Li Chongjiu’s biggest financial income now?
Zhou Xu didn’t see Li Chongjiu’s worried face, but introduced him to the Hope Museum with great interest. It has been a year and a half since the Hope Museum was opened. He has completed the basic training of Chinese characters in Huaihuang Town, and for those children, he has also taught rhymes, teachings, thousands of words, Analects of Confucius and other recitations, as well as basic arithmetic training.
Unconsciously, Zhou Xu has been deeply involved in the fun of President Zhou. He feels that the teaching scale can be expanded. Zhou Xu even sent Li Chongjiu out of the three first-level promotion colleges of Mengxue Primary School and County School. The reason is that Li Chongjiu has now become a county magistrate, and it is no longer necessary to set up education even once in a while in Huaihuang Town, and to expand the scale and number of students.
Note 1. In the thirteenth year of the new Tang Dynasty, Dou Lie built an altar in Heleshou to stand on his own feet.
Note 2 Lingqiu County in Sui Dynasty is equivalent to Yangyuan County in Lingqiu County of Yuxian County today.
Chapter two hundred and ten Zhaoxian Pavilion
Li Chongjiu agrees with the opinion that Zhou Xu should set up a county school.
Ji Chuan said, "Please forgive me for saying that there is no shortage of brave warriors in Huaihuang Town, Grassland Valley and County. There is a shortage of talented people who can govern one side, but generals do not lack cunning and sophistry tactics, but they can shortage thousands of talents, let alone ten thousand generals. Although the generals can say that they will win the battle and attack, they are all talented people who have no strategy."
Li Chongjiu was a little unhappy when he heard this. What happened to Ji Chuan? Forgive me for telling the truth, but he really fell into his face on the spot. Where is there such a face and didn’t give it to the boss?
Li Chongjiu said grumpily, "You said that I was about to train such talents gradually in primary schools and counties."
Yoshikawa said, "Before you forgot me, you said that a hungry man died after three days of weaving nets to catch fish, but he starved to death?" Eye satrap place is thousands of miles wide and sparsely populated, but it also needs to be able to control thousands of miles. Being virtuous and satrap is now an official. I see that Zhou Xiong’s Oracle reader is acceptable, and Liu Xiong’s arithmetic is barely enough. Although Zhao Wansan has never met, he can’t think of a hundred miles to find such a talent temporarily. If it takes five or ten years to train such a talented person, "
"All of us are dying of hunger."
Good Yoshikawa attacked Li Chongjiu’s civilian officials with a poisonous tongue. Well, it is estimated that Su Su is Li Chongjiu’s fourth uncle who finally left some face.
Zhou Xu immediately became so angry that Zhou Xu stammered as soon as he got angry. "Good for you, Ji … Chuan … How long are you?"
Liu Yi snorted coldly. "I don’t know if he came to Huaihuang Town because of adultery!"
Yoshikawa was exposed when he was furious. "What did you say about adultery? I’d like to say it again. At the beginning, Chen Ping was still ignorant of money and stole his wife’s wife. Can you think that you are so short-sighted?"
Liu Yi sneered, "You’re the only one who can talk big, but you’re better than Chen Ping. It’s true that a horse doesn’t think his face is long. Then how can you be a thousand miles talented if you see it?"
Yoshikawa seems to have negative hands and then said, "If you want to be virtuous, of course, you must look for it from the cremation. Since ancient times, you can get out of Fan Kuai but you can’t get out of Xiao Zhangliang."
"There is also Han Xin Chen Ping in the cold door," Zhou Xu said. "There is no famous family in Guyi County. Besides, where can we find family support?"
