Chapter 282 Sifang Yundong
In the north, it is still a season of thousands of miles of ice and snow, but the winter in the south of the Yangtze River is still as warm as spring.
Jizhou, a medium-sized city on the water, was once ** by Fang La rebels. Although it has stabilized under the rule of Zhao Song, Zhao Huan has all his thoughts on himself. Does he have time to care about the life and death of the people? Therefore, the life of the people here is still very difficult.
No one knows that it is such a city that is brewing the first rebellion since Zhao Song entered the south of the Yangtze River, but this rebellion has nothing to do with Song Qing.
What kind of goods can make waves in Jiangnan is recorded in the records of the internal guards, but this rebellion is not one of these people.
The incident originated from the rampant levy of the Zhao and Song government against the local people, and Zao Li, who was responsible for taxing. After killing the son of a veteran, the veteran resisted and also killed Zao Li.
This time, he knew that he had caused trouble, but the disaster had been done. He stretched out his head and shrank his head with a knife. Let's just reverse it!
This veteran is Peng You. At first, he didn't expect that things would be so big, but when he killed the state officials with the gathered farmers, countless ordinary people in the market who were forced by life came to vote. In just a few days, his team has exceeded 20,000 people.
This time, Peng You's confidence has soared that he also remembered what others said when he was a soldier, princes and generals, and would rather have guts?
Others can be emperors in the world, why can't I?
So Peng You openly provoked the anti-flag in Jizhou and began to recruit troops to attack the nearby state capital.
When Song Qing received the news, Peng You's rebellion had become a praitive force, and his command also developed to more than 100,000 people. Some scattered soldiers who fled from the north also joined his team one after another. In this way, it was originally just an ordinary farmer rebellion and gradually evolved into a rebellion joined by regular soldiers.
When Zhao Huan fled to the south of the Yangtze River, he did not bring any decent army. Under the strong deterrence and inspiration of Liangshan, some capable generals also defected to Jiangbei one after another, so Zhao Huan can't bring out a rebel army at all now.
These rebels are like locusts. Once they have knives and guns in their hands, they completely forget that they were also ordinary people. Treat those unarmed people without mercy, burn and kill **, and do nothing.
For a while, the land south of the Yangtze River mourned, and the war had quickly burned to Lin'an.
In desperation, Zhao Huan has sent more than ten letters for help to Luoyang, asking Song Qing to send troops to save him. It's not that he doesn't understand the principle that it's easy to invite God to send God, but he is more willing to believe Song Qing than these bandits.
In the past, the situation in Jiangnan has always been under control, but this kind of thing suddenly happened, which Song Qing never expected. At this moment, he is secretly gathering people to prepare for the crisis from the north.
He can't care about Zhao Huan's life or death, but he can't ignore the people in Jiangnan.
First of all, Liang Shan pursues the way for heaven. How can the people not be saved when they are in trouble? What will the people of Jiangnan think of Liangshan?
Secondly, Jiangnan will also be under his Song Qing's rule in the future, and he already has a plan. After ascending the throne, he began to gradually recover Jiangnan. Now Jiangnan has been harmed by the turbulent army, and it is bound to increase the difficulty of governance.
This is not what Song Qing wanted.
For a while, there were aliens in the north that were about to invade the territory, and there were peasant uprisings in the south, and the northwest had just recovered, and there was no need to return.
The situation seems to have become unprecedentedly critical overnight.
Song Qing has convened a group of ministers for several days in a row, and orders have also been passed from the Liang Palace in Luoyang to the provincial capitals under Liang Shan.
In the battle of the grassland, Song Qing originally planned to go there in person, but now it seems that he can't be separated.
And now a large number of troops are concentrated in the northwest, Tubo, Zhending and Youzhou, and there is no way to deploy a large army to assist Zhao Huan.
Each state government still has some troops, but Song Qing does not intend to use it, because at this time, the more likely it is for some people with ulterior motives to make waves, so they must have enough strength to deter them.
After discussing with the ministers, Song Qing decided to take the Yangtze River Marine Division as the team and recruit soldiers on the spot in Lin'an to cooperate with Liang Shanshui Division to ensure that Lin'an is not lost.
However, Liangshan's most powerful navy can't be used, because Song Qing still has them to be of great use.
With the call of Luoyang Liang Palace, the land of the Central Plains, which had been silent for several years, moved again.
Seeing the weather getting warmer day by day, more accurate news on the grassland finally came.
Wanyan Zonggan took Wanyan Zongwang as the commander and Wanyan's mother as the deputy commander. He raised 200,000 troops and sent troops to Youzhou. You should know that with the current strength of the State of Jin, these 200,000 can be said to be the soldiers of the country.
The Mongolian tribes should be the leader of the alliance and gathered six 150,000 troops to suppress the front lines of Datong and Yunzhou.
Yelü Dashi didn't know how to turn Li Renli out there. In addition to the armed forces of various departments in the Western Regions, he also gathered 200,000 troops to rejuvenate Heishui Town, the former hometown of Xixia.
This distribution is obviously difficult to take care of Liangshan.
The Liangshan regime, which is not stable, was killed by more than 500,000 troops in three ways, giving people the feeling that the situation has reached the extreme.
When Song Qing received such news, he suddenly smiled. It was not that he was heartless, nor how confident he was. And as long as you carefully analyze the layout of Liang Shan's army, you will know why he laughed.
Han Shizhong is in the northwest of Youzhou, Yuefei and Yangyi. Although Lin Chong in Datong is not as good as them, after years, the attack may not be enough, but there is no problem with defense.
Who are these people who are not famous in history? Now there are powerful firearms and logistics. If they can't win again, won't they be sorry for their reputation in history?
In order to ensure that Lin Chong did not make any mistakes, Song Qing sent Wu Yong to Datong at the same time. In addition, he was transferred from the Battle of Xixia to there, which was believed to be enough to deal with the Mongolian iron horse.
What makes Song Qing uneasy is actually Zhang Shuye of the city, because whether it is Han or Tang, it is not under the effective control of the Central Plains. Can Zhang Shuye, a civil official, really govern there?
The current situation is one shot and touches the whole body. No matter which side has problems, the country that Song Qing and Liang Shan have worked hard to defeat may collapse, so they really can't afford to lose!
Now the situation in the world is surging. Although Zhang Shuye is stationed in the city on the plateau, how can he not know the current situation?
He not only knew that the nobles who had been deterred by Liangshan's military power, but also began to be ready to move.
A change in the old system is often accompanied by bloody winds. Especially in Tubo, a place that has never been subdued.
Zhang Shuye was well aware of the difficulty of the task and felt Song Qing's trust in him, so after taking office, he began to implement the new policy vigorously.
The ancients often said that water can carry and overturn it.
Zhang Shuye knows that if you want to stand on Tubo, you must first get the support of the people. So at the beginning of his tenure, he implemented a series of policies to benefit the people, emancipating serfs and exempting harsh taxes.
Tubo is located on the plateau, and the lives of the people can't be compared with the Central Plains. In response to this, Zhang Shuye requisitioned grain, grass, cotton and clothing and other materials from Chengdu, focusing on helping people living in difficulties and forming a rescue mechanism.
In the treatment of Buddhism, Zhang Shuye adopted freedom of belief according to Song Qing's instructions, and the government did not participate in Buddhist affairs, but the living Buddhas were not allowed to participate in local government affairs, otherwise they would be severely punished.
The people of Tibet are also human beings. Although they are still spiritually subject to Buddhism, they have become more and more dependent on Zhang Shuye's government in their lives.
If everything goes well, I believe that it won't be long before Zhang Shuye's new policy will have a greater effect. But I didn't expect this to happen in Zhongyuan at this time.
After receiving the news, Zhang Shuye immediately prepared to visit Qin Ming. He believed that at this time, there must be nobles who were unwilling to be ruled by Liang Shan, so they must strengthen their defenses.
Before he went out, he saw Wang Yin come in with a serious face.
The two originally belonged to two different camps, but after being put together by Song Qing, they cooperated very well and even felt sorry for each other's talents.
"Brother Wang, do you also know the news of Zhongyuan?"
Wang Yin nodded and said solemnly, "There is a thousand years old in the Central Plains. You don't have to worry about me. I feel that after this news came, there is something wrong in the city."
Liang Shan has just entered Tibet, and the intelligence system is not perfect. Most of the people are mainly Buddhists and are coerced by living Buddhas. Many people do not dare to contribute to the government even if they want to contribute to the government. So Zhang Shuye and others are very passive in many things.
Hearing Wang Yin's words, Zhang Shuye's face also became solemn.
"What's going on?"
"There is a slave in my family who was rescued from the big prison. He told me that there have always been strangers in Dawang's house recently, and according to him, many of these people have never come out since they went in."
After Zhang Shuye entered the city, they rescued many slaves from the prison. Compared with hiring local people, these people were obviously much more reassuring to use. Therefore, after the selection, many people were left to listen to by the government and became the ears of the government.
Dawang is a big man according to local saying. It is said that at the most beautiful time, there were thousands of slaves in the family. Later, although he was a little depressed, he was also a very influential person in the local area. After the Liangshan army arrived, this guy has always been very obedient and cooperated with Zhang Shuye's new policy.
For such a person, Zhang Shuye is ready to use and guard against it, and there is Wang Yin's report.
Zhang Shuye pondered for a moment and said, "The battle between Chitose and the grassland tribes is about to begin. We are not helping anything in this battle. What we can do is to ensure that Tibet is not chaotic and does not drag Chitose down."
Wang Yin also nodded and said, "That's what I mean, but we must resolutely eliminate people who try to subvert our Liangshan regime."
The two were discussing, and suddenly a bodyguard came to report that General Qin Ming invited the two adults to go.
The two knew that Qin Ming's search for them at this time must be related to what happened in the Central Plains. So he immediately left the government office and rushed to Qin Ming's mansion.
In fact, the two only guessed half of them correctly. Although Qin Ming came to them, it was due to the war in the Central Plains. In addition, he received the news that there was a rebellion in Pibo City, not far from the city of Luo.
