From Soldier To Emperor

Chapter 221: Abandoned Long Family

However, the Royal Family of the Tang Dynasty would naturally not sit still, and could not own the world, and it would be good to be able to keep a foundation in a chaotic world that was torn apart.

As a result, the Datang imperial family pushed out one of the chief culprits of the rebellion in Anlu Mountain-Concubine Yang, and carried the scapegoat.

When Anlu Mountain rebelled and was invincible all the way, the Yang family, who was one of the strongest in the Tang Dynasty, also suffered a destructive liquidation.

Because the Yang family was at odds with Anlu Mountain before, and repeatedly suppressed Anlu Mountain at court meetings, many people in the Tang Dynasty and the royal family said that it was the Yang Family who forced Anlu Mountain against it!

Especially when the Anlu Mountain triumphed all the way and the army was approaching Chang'an City, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty pulled the Yang family out as a scapegoat in order to calm the anger. The prime minister of the Yang family was beaten to the end, and the entire family was ransacked and imprisoned. The favored concubine Yang Gui is even more miserable...

Well, Concubine Yang disappeared after falling out of favor!

Of course, in the public announcement, it was Concubine Yang Gui who was cremated by the emperor's suicide...

After Anlu Mountain retired, not many people in the Tang court cared about the Yang family who was ransacked and put to jail. Naturally, no one paid attention to the concubine Yang, who was announced to be dead.

In the end, An Lushan did not send a single person to support Xizhou, but instead retreated the wealth of the garrison and officials from the east of Xizhou on a large scale!

However, Anlushan didn’t do nothing. An order was handed over to the Long Family. The Long Letian who lived in the Long Family’s family was made the king of the county by Anlu Mountain. The fief included the entire Xizhou and Yizhou and Shazhou to the east of Xizhou. , Guazhou, Suzhou and more than ten state capitals!

Long Letian, with a bewildered look, was promoted to the largest and unprecedented county king in the Great Yan's fief in just one hour of the Yan King's imperial edict!

The only requirement of Anlu Mountain is to block the invasion of the Ming army!

Of course, the state capital sealed to the Long family cannot be handed over to the Long family intact. Before the handover, An Lushan mobilized all local forces and began to migrate a large number of young people and official wealth.

Of course, not everyone in Anlushan migrates, so the cost is too much, and it is impossible to do it. After all, most people don't want to migrate long distances...

For the low-level folks, leaving their hometown is equivalent to losing their only possessions, and they can only be beggars in other places!

The young men who migrated from Anlu Mountain were actually the army reserve and government militiamen he organized.

These people will also bring their relatives with them during their migration. Of course, they also include a large number of local tycoons who follow Anlu Mountain.

Why did the Western Regions treat the local wealthy people so badly? It's also an increase in land tax and an increase in land tax. It also ransacks the family and kills people!

Compared with the rule of Anlu Mountain, the Ming State under Richard's rule is simply the **** of the landlord and gentry!

Therefore, the more powerful the local tycoons, the more they must follow the footsteps of Anlu Mountain, unless they are so strong that they want to fight against the invincible Ming army in the Western Regions...

Everyone can see that the county king of the Long Family seems to be aloof, but in fact it was the cannon fodder thrown by An Lushan in order to intercept or delay the invasion of Richard.

The basic disk of Anlu Mountain is mainly in the Yingzhou and Youzhou generations. Because the geography of the different world is very similar to the earth, it is roughly equivalent to the Liaoshen area and Beizhili of the earth. This is the birthplace of Anlu Mountain!

There are big families who support Anlushan everywhere, and Anlushan doesn't need to keep many troops. As long as you let go of the local regiments, there will be a large number of landlords who will rise up to help Anlushan take care of the house.

Moreover, most of Anlu Mountain's soldiers came from these two areas. If they guarded these two areas, Anlu Mountain's officers and soldiers would definitely increase their combat effectiveness by a level.

Defending the hometown and invading abroad are completely different concepts for soldiers.

Going abroad is to grab food, money, and women to make a fortune, but to guard the hometown is to keep one's only property and relatives!

Fighting for their parents, brothers, wives and children, and selling their lives for money, the soldiers naturally have a balance in their hearts.

An Lushan's strategic deployment is still very reliable and wise, his main force and the green skin cannot be extracted from the fierce battle, otherwise his hometown foundation will be over.

Since it is impossible to draw the main force to beat the Ming army, naturally it can only shrink the defense. After shrinking to a certain extent, the Ming army's control area will border the green skins going south!

At that time, the Ming army will naturally also fight against the green-skinned ‘detachment’ going south with Yan.

While Anlu Mountain, which has shrunk its strength, has more reserve soldiers to recruit and train. The place where the wealthy families migrate is the reserve source of Anlushan's financial resources. In this era, the wealthy families are the capital of mobile. Even if the land is abandoned, it will last for many years. The accumulation of wealth is enough for them to have a huge floating wealth.

The migration of local wealthy families is different from ordinary civilians. When they arrive in a new place, they have to spend money to buy houses and land, to reconnect with the local government, and even to spend money to buy and sell shops and so on.

These transactions are sources of wealth for the ruler!

Therefore, the wealthy families and young civilians in the migrating and occupied areas of Anlushan, UU read www. uukanshu.com is actually plundering people and money!

It’s just that the scale is not very large...

The biggest victim of An Lushan's actions was not Richard, but the Long Family!

An Lushan is equivalent to drawing salaries from the power of the local government and the rich. The Long Family wants to re-gather power in the newly acquired fief, it will inevitably spend a lot of time and energy to reorganize, but will Richard give the Long Family time?

This kind of migration was instructed by An Lushan, and the Long Family couldn't stop it at all!

The only use of these extra state capitals for the Long Family is to give the Long Family a long strategic depth. Even if Xizhou is defeated, there is still a place to retreat...

At the moment of receiving the Anlu Mountain imperial decree, the Long Family knew the ‘important responsibility’ he was given.

It is impossible to surrender to Richard. The Long Family is not a fool. They just rejected Richard severely and completely offended King Daming, who did not blink. At this time, even if he surrendered in the past, even if he would not be ransacked and annihilated, he would be inevitably Richard suppresses and weakens...

In public and private, Richard, who believes in centralized power, would not allow the existence of the giant dragon in this place.

Regarding this situation, the Long Family made the worst plan. When Long Letian concentrated all his strength to stay in Xizhou City, where the Long Family’s deepest roots were, he sent out Long Batian and half of the Long Family members, nominally until they had just acquired them. To take over the power in the fiefdom is actually to go there to reorganize the new government order, and to pull up an armed force at all costs!

After all, the young people who migrated from Anlu Mountain only accounted for a small part. If the Long family were cruel, they would still be able to force many young people into the army.

At the time of life and death, the Long Family had no regard for the image of benevolence and justice, which is why Long Letian sent the bloodthirsty and militant Long Batian out to build the army.
