Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 422 Those who gain the Tao will help more, but those who lose the Way will not help 【Subscription】

In Yidu City, Lu Qian watched Hu Yanzhuo half-pushed and half-succumbed to take the order, and was just happy, so he was found by Zongze, Wen Huanzhang and others, but it was because of the rule of Huainan.

Although it was still a military prefecture there, soon after the officials came in place one after another, it was time to proceed with the registration of households, Qimin, Qingzhangdimu, etc.The cabinet summarized a series of problems that emerged during the implementation of the previous Qilu land policy. One of the most obvious points is that the power in the hands of local officials is too weak.

The cabinet wants to strengthen the rights of local state and county officials.The division of judicial and taxation rights has a great impact on the power of magistrates.Not to mention the mix of officials and officials, and the large number of officials of the eighth and ninth grades in the county, these have seriously affected the authority of the official.

Be clear, this is not the future life, nothing will happen, and the news can be reached with a phone call.Today is an era when traffic basically depends on walking and communication basically depends on roaring.The exchange of news is not smooth, the prestige of the officials in the main hall has been greatly reduced, and the birth of the township official system, when conflicts occur between the upper and lower levels, the operation of the local government system will often be seriously sluggish.

Moreover, as the foundation of Daqi's rule became more and more stable, more and more local people were incorporated into the government system. They just couldn't get a seat, and they were still public officials.But in the end there are outstanding ones who can go one step further.When Lu Qian set up this governance system, it was stipulated that the only ones who had to avoid in different places were the officials, because of the influence of the previous life.

And in this way, after going to that place for decades, wouldn't there still be relationship entanglements?It's like the family of subordinate officials in the past, and the social status is even higher.They may be officials.The eighth and ninth ranks are also officials.

The result of the cabinet's discussion made Lu Qian directly think of the Rabbit Kingdom in later generations, which makes sense.Previously, based on the fact that the power in the hands of the ancient officials was too great, he swung the knife like this, "click", "click", but it seemed a bit overkill.In the hands of the official, there still needs to be some direct deterrence.

However, if this is the case, he has to think carefully before making a decision.As long as there is still time to see Huainan, let alone know that Chao Gai has won a strange man in the army.

Ever since the cities of Yangzhou and Jinling were destroyed, none of Lu Yirou and Cai Yi had died for their country.

A group of people retreated to Dangtu.Cai Dezhang from Jiangzhou and Chen Tao from Huainan West Road both sent reinforcements.There is no other way, Jiangnan East Road is the top priority.Not only does it provide guidance on money and food, but it also includes topography.If the latter is captured by Manichaeism, the south gate of Huainan West Road will be completely opened.Hundreds of miles of the Yangtze River are the landing places for the Liangshan Army.

Based on the feedback from Luoyang City, Cai Dezhang has already asked his father for help, hoping that the Western Army on Jinghu Road can quickly send out a branch to aid Jiujiang.

Chao Gai also found out that Chen Yun had divided his troops into Dangtu, so he raised his army to attack Shouzhou.

Zhang Jun led the man to the big tent of the Chinese army.Chao Gai is discussing military plans with Zhu Dian and Song Qing.Zhang Jun entered the tent, and the three of them were shocked after a few words, "It's dangerous! Thanks to the gentleman for reminding! Otherwise, tens of thousands of soldiers will be buried." Chao Gai rushed out of the tent to greet the visitor, and bowed to the ground.

"How dare you accept the big gift." The visitor waved his hands repeatedly.

Chao Gai said: "Mr. this gift should be used by himself. If Mr. Fei warned, Chao Gai and these tens of thousands of sons will be food for fish and turtles."

"Dare to ask sir to come in and tell me!"

"The invitation to recruit, dare not obey."

"Please."

"Please."

Chao Gai is also a gangster, and he has his own vision when looking at people.As soon as he saw the visitor, he felt that it was extraordinary, not to mention that he gave him a big gift first.

Everyone sat down in the tent, and Chao Gai asked for their names.The visitor stroked his beard and said, "My surname is Xiao, and my name is Jiasui." It is the descendant of the Xiao family in Nanliang.His great-grandfather, Xiao Yan, styled Sengda, was the younger brother of Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and the governor of Jingnan.The river broke its embankment, and Xiao Yu personally led the generals to repair it in the rain.The rain was very strong and the water was strong, so the generals asked them to avoid it, Xiao Yu said, "The king wants to block the river with his body, why am I alone?"

The so-called swallows in front of the Wang Xietang in the old days flew into the homes of ordinary people.The Xiao family was a prominent family during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, but today, its glory has long since faded.Xiao Jiasui was a man of both literary and martial arts. He was broad-minded, ambitious, generous, physically strong and proficient in martial arts. He was a rare talent.Such a person is not allowed in the official circles of the imperial court. He himself sees clearly that he does not want to give up for five buckets of rice, which would make it easier for Xu Guanzhong to wander around the world.

If it were a peaceful and prosperous age, spending your life like this would be silent.If dragons and snakes are rising now, strife continues in the world, and the Zhao family's glorious empire is about to fall apart, how can talented people remain buried in the rivers and lakes without seeking to be heard in the world?

Xu Guanzhong is like this, and so is Xiao Jiasui.

It's just that the latter is not as good as the former. With Lu Junyi and Yan Qing as the starting points, he can only make contributions first to show that he is extraordinary.

Chao Gai said: "Chao Gai knows the purpose of your visit, sir, so please stay in our army for a while and serve as a military counselor. When this battle is over, Gai will recommend him in front of the king." Chao Gai's words are very blatant.

But Xiao Jiasui didn't care.He has never had anything to do with the Liangshan army, so it is rare to be able to enter Chao Gai's left and right counselors in one fell swoop.Could it be that he still thinks that he can be valued by King Qi in one fell swoop, and promise him a heavy responsibility?Liangshan Army is no longer the Liangshanbo of the past.And those false tricks he played, don't mention it.He actually hanged a personal guard.

Xiao Jiasui missed the best time, and that was the consequence. "You're welcome. Xiao came here because of his reputation. It's a great fortune for me to get this opportunity." When Pang Tong voted for Liu Bei, he was only a small county magistrate.

So, the topic turns to the present.

Chao Gai said: "Since our army set up camp and violated this taboo, why is the Song army in the city not moving?"

In the past few days, the drizzle has been misty, but the place where it rains is not limited to Shouzhou. The Huai River is surging, and the water line has risen quite a bit.The Song army broke open the embankment suddenly, wouldn't it also annihilate them?

"It's nothing more than wanting to wait for the weather to change before making poisonous tricks. A certain sky watcher said that there will be rain tomorrow and the next day, and the rain will not be small. There are nine out of ten people in the city, so they should use tricks at that time." The Huaishui River embankment does not affect the area in front of it, and one can imagine the infamy.That being the case, who wouldn't want to succeed in one fell swoop? "Besides, the terrain in the northeast of Shouzhou City is low-lying, and although one of the three camps of our army is stationed in the northeast, the other two are located in the north and northwest. And the southwest of Shouzhou City is Kip Mountain, "Shui Jing Zhu" Yun: "The Huaihe River passes through the mountain gorge in the north, which is called Xiashi, and two cities are built on the opposite side of the mountain to prevent Tianjin." The latter has been an important military location since ancient times." "Three Kingdoms · Wei Zhi": "The first year of Ganlu ( 256 A.D.), Zhuge was born in Shouchun, Wang Changjun Xiashi".In the famous Battle of Feishui, it was an important stronghold for the Eastern Jin army to resist the front of the former Qin army.

In the Song Dynasty, there were four ancient castles in Dongxiashi and Xixiashi.One is on the top of the stone in the east and the other is on the top of the west. The foot of the mountain is close to the Fei River. Therefore, one city rises from the mountainside and the other is at the northern foot of the Changshan Mountain. Together with the four cities, they are less than five miles apart.It's just that now there is not a single soldier in Xiashikou.

Chao Gai was stunned, and said: "Since this is the case, you can ask the left army to quickly move the camp to a safe place."

Xiao Jiasui said: "No way. Recruiting is a matter of tricks and we can seize Shouzhou!" Arrangements were made immediately.During the day, the three camps of the Liangshan Army were all busy until late at night.

At noon the next day, sure enough, there was a strong wind, dark clouds covered the top, and rain fell.The magistrate of Shouzhou was very happy when he saw it at the top of the city.He said to a group of people around him: "The Taoist priest is indeed a high-ranking scholar. He said that if there is rain in the day, it will surely fall."

"This Wang Wenqing is really toasting and not eating fine wine." Zhizhou called people to take the Taoist back to treat him well, and a military officer beside him said angrily.

"Oh, Zhu Tuanlian is ashamed. We all do what we do for the sake of the great Song Dynasty. People outside Wang Daochang have a misunderstanding. What's the point?" Even if we want to concoct him, we have to wait until after the thief is broken. .Zhizhou said in his heart, stroking his beard, looking at the Liangshan army camp outside the city with his small eyes, full of pride.

So on the third day, it rained heavily.After staying up all day long and staying at night until the first watch, Zhizhou taught Zhu Tuanlian to lead an army of [-] people. He brought more shovels and hammers and went out of the south gate first. He took advantage of the night rain, which made his vision unclear, and headed east.He called people to gather the young and strong in the city, prepared the raft, and prepared to wait until dawn to go to the water to wipe out the remnants of the Liangshan Army.At this point, the people in the city knew that Zhizhou was going to dig the Huai River embankment, and there was an uproar.

Zhu Tuanlian led the army out of the city and rushed to the embankment in the rain. He saw the lights in the Liangshan army camp flickering in the night rain.Xi said: "You guys don't know yet. My sons and I went up the mountain with me to dig the river embankment!"

But no one is heartless, how could these soldiers not know how serious the disaster in Shouzhou would be if they dug up the Huai River embankment?
But Zhu Tuanlian had expected this to happen a long time ago, and immediately signaled that those soldiers who had been bribed by him raised their shovels and hammers one after another.Don't wait for the rest of the soldiers to get entangled, suddenly a messy arrow shot in the night.The sergeant called Shouzhou immediately suffered a group of casualties.Zhu Tuanlian was shocked: "It's not good, you've been ambushed by thieves, let's go!" Before the words came alive, the clappers were knocking all over the place, and countless people rushed out.He was the first big man, with thick eyebrows and straight eyes, holding a plain knife and shouting: "Dog officer, you want to break the embankment and replace our army with water, and I don't blame you. The entire area is a swamp. How could the hundreds of thousands of people in Shouzhou suffer such disasters?"

"Your generation is so wolf-hearted, cares nothing about people's lives, doesn't care about the life and death of the people, treats thousands of people as worthless, and is not worthy of being a son of man. Today I will kill you!"

The rain poured down on Chao Gai, but it couldn't extinguish the boiling fire in his heart. "My sons, join me in killing the thieves——"

On the Song army's side, Zhu Tuanlian also shouted: "Our army is already on the verge of death, and we are not going to fight to the death!"The Liangshan army shouted loudly: "Surrender and avoid death!" The Shouzhou soldiers had no fighting spirit, and most of them surrendered in a moment.Zhu Tuanlian fled even more hastily, but he didn't expect an arrow from behind, hitting him in the back.He screamed, turned over and fell to the ground, and then Zhang Jun caught up and cut off his head with a knife.

In the Zhengbei camp, Xiao Jiasui heard the good news and said happily: "This battle is worry-free." The governor of Shouzhou used water instead of soldiers. If he succeeded, he would give up.Being caught in this way, the young and strong guards of Shouzhou City were determined to be distraught and had no desire to fight anymore.

Sure enough, when the captured soldiers shouted loudly outside the city one by one, all the young and strong sergeants on the city wall seemed to be deflated. Even Wang Wenqing, a distinguished guest from Shouzhou Zhizhou, could see their listlessness. .He laughed loudly and said, "It's a pity that you, a dog official, are also a scholar. I would rather not know what it means to say 'those who have attained the Dao will help more, and those who have lost the Dao will have little help'?"

Zhizhou ignored him and fled down the city in a panic, but was forced by the city residents of Shouzhou to turn back again.The bird man ordered the yamen servants around him to clear the way for him, but there were still people listening.

In this way, after dawn, the gates of Shouzhou City were opened in all directions, and the people in the city captured Zhizhou and offered the city, and the city fell without a fight.

When the Liangshan army marched into the city, the first thing they did was to arrest Zhizhou and behead him, causing the people of Shouzhou to cheer for a while.
