Chapter 284 Famous General Enters Liaoning
Liaoyang County is a newly renamed. Because there is already a Liaodong City and Liaodong County to the west of the Liaohe River, the imperial court changed the Liaodong City in Liaodong into Liaoyang City. The new county, one of the seven Liaodong counties centered on Liaodong City, was named Liaoyang County.
When Fan Zigai entered Liaodong, he could be said to have been exiled, but the positions of Liaodong deputy and Liaoyang County prefectures show that Yang Guang still relied on him very much. Liaodong deputy was left behind, which was a high position but not a heavy power. If he also served as the prefect of Liaoyang County, the largest county in Liaodong, he would be truly a high position and a heavy power.
Chen Kefu has really relied on this famous name for Fan Zigai, who is obviously a thin old man.
But what I admire is his name of killing indiscriminately and killing wildly. When seeing others, I really can't connect the thin old man in front of me with the murderous demon king. Fan Zigai is a civil servant, but it is such a civil servant. When he was liquidating Yang Xuangan, he killed more than 30,000 people at once.
After going to the Jianghuai area in Henan Province to suppress bandits, he even implemented the Three Lights policy, burning all the houses and killing all the population. The army passed by, without leaving any grass, and was a thousand miles away. He was said to be cruel, but this old man who served as the prefect of Tongyang, the governor of Chenzhou, the prefect of Wuwei, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the left-behind officials, was honest and cautious in his official duties, did not accept bribes, and was strict in the military, and even received support from many people. Such things were like him, on one side was the Confucianism of traditional literati and the side was the angel. But on the other side was a brutal, simple executioner who ignored the lives of the people. This was the devil's side. Half an angel, half a devil, and such a person was his direct deputy, which made Chen Kefu feel very stressed.
Before coming, although he was sent to Liaodong, Yang Guang promoted him to the title of Duke of Jiguo from Jian'an, which was also a comfort and compensation for him.
Chen Kefu almost laughed when he thought about his title. Li Yuan, Duke of Tang, was generally called Duke of Tang.
He is the Duke of Liao, and is known as Duke of Liao. The murderous devil in front of him is Duke of Ji, so wouldn't he call him Duke of Ji?
"Pojun has met Mr. Jiguo!" Chen Kefu smiled slightly and bowed to Fan Zigai, but he felt a little unhappy. Such an old man who was loyal to the Sui Dynasty and Wen Zhen could come to be his deputy, and would be the prefect of Liaoyang County. This is definitely not a good thing.
Fan Zigai also replied seriously. "Although Lord Chen is young, the achievements he has built for the Great Sui Dynasty have already made me ashamed. In the future, I will become Lord Chen's subordinate. I just hope that this old bone will be able to manage the land of Liaodong for His Majesty and the Great Sui Dynasty in the last few years, and live up to the bloody sacrifice of millions of soldiers."
There were thousands of officials in the Sui Dynasty, and there were all kinds of people. There were big families like Yang Xuangan, big families like big countries, and Beichen, like Pei Shiju, who was only focused on flattering the emperor's mind. But there were also loyal ministers like Zhang Xutuo and Fan Zigai who even spared their reputation for the sake of the court. The more chaotic the times, the less precious the ministers were.
After introducing Fan Zigai, Yang Lai kindly took Chen Kefu's hand and walked to another veteran in armor.
At first glance, I saw that the man had white hair, but he should be about the same age as Li Benlei, and he looked about sixty years old.
Unlike Fan Zigai's thinness, this veteran was eight feet tall and covered in white hair, but the skin on his face was not wrinkled at all, but was red. Looking at the veteran's eyes, Chen Kefu was surprised to find that the old man was actually the same as Xiang Yu's legend, with both eyes in his eyes.
It's actually two pupils. When looking at each other, it gives people a strange feeling of being fucked.
"This is the old general of Laozhu, Gaotang County, the old general of Yujuluoyu. At the age of 20, General Yu entered the imperial guards. Later, he fought south and north, and there were old generals. He used hundreds of cavalry to break through the formation of the Turkic army, which was an unparalleled general in our army. The old general had been in charge of Fengzhou on the border for a long time. The Turks invaded Fengzhou several times, but were all captured and killed by Yu Laozhu. From then on, the Turks left fearing Yu Laozhu and did not dare to shed horses on the frontier. Laozhu was originally suppressing bandits in the Jianghuai River. This time, His Majesty specially appointed the veteran general to be transferred to the prefect of Liaodong Xincheng County with important tasks."
Yu Juluo looked Chen Kefu up and down with his eyes several times, laughed dryly, and his voice was very loud, "Your Majesty, don't say good things for me. To be honest, I fell in Jiangnan this time. After fighting for several months, even a small rebel did not suppress the peace. Your Majesty was furious, so it should be.
But I didn’t expect that Your Majesty could still entrust me with such an important task and let me join Liao as the prefect of Xincheng. I am really ashamed."
Chen Kefu was also shocked when he heard that the person in front of him was Yu Juluo. As far as he knew, Yu Juluo was only fifty years old this year, but he was one of the generals of the group of generals when the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty. Like Zhang Xutuo, Yu Juluo once fought with Yang Guang and Yang Su, especially had a very good relationship with Yang Su. Yu Juluo had a younger brother who had followed him before and later became a general of the chariot and cavalry, but he liked to abuse soldiers very much. Xing was violent and abused his subordinates, and ordered his left and right barbecue. He was unhappy with warm wine.
The person made a decision. Yang Guang was reluctant to kill him because he was a subordinate of Lou, but he said to the minister next to him: "Since brother is like this, brother can also know." From then on, Yu Juluo began to be unlucky and was removed from his post. Later, Yang Su protected him out of the mountain twice, and made many great achievements in winning several battles. However, as a result, his son rebelled as soon as Yang Su died. At that time, Yu Juluo was far away from the border, otherwise he could have escaped and implicated. But even so, he was transferred from the border and asked him to suppress the bandits. As a result, the bandits were not good, and Yang Guang wanted to kill him.
Fortunately, Yu Shiji pleaded for mercy and said that he was sent to Liaodong. Yang Guang was a little worried about Chen Kefu's presence in Liaodong, and always felt that no one was restrained. Now the soldiers and horses in the Central Plains were unable to be mobilized, so he finally agreed to Yu Shiji's suggestion and simply sent him to Liaodong.
For Chen Kefu, Yu Juluo was a person who had long been famous before he traveled through time. Unlike Fan Zigai who killed too many people, Yu Juluo made him remember because of the legend of heroes of the Sui and Tang dynasties that he had heard when he was a child. In it, Li Xuanba was the best hero in the world. He had a pair of thunder drums and golden hammers in his hand, and he was killed by anyone. But such a powerful man was finally killed. The one who killed him was Yu Juluo in front of him. The book said that he was one of the nine elders of Xing Sui and the Grand Governor of the Sui Dynasty.
Although he knew that the Legend of the Heroes of the Sui Dynasty was just a novel after traveling to the Sui Dynasty, he also knew about Yu Juluo. He was a true veteran, general, and at the same level as Zhang Xutuo.
It can even be said that he is three more powerful than Zhang Xutuo. Zhang Xutuo did not fight many wars at the border, and later he basically belonged to the commander of the local second-line troops. Although he defeated tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people at every turn, those were bandits and farmers. Yu Juluo has been fighting on the border, and the Turks in Weiming Town did not dare to graze near his defense zone. This shows how powerful he is. In fact, he cannot blame him for the failure of the bandit suppression this time. His failure was not because he lost. He only defeated the bandits several times, but did not wipe out them completely. Yang Guang, who had long been suspicious of him because of his good relationship with Yang Su, found an opportunity to cut off his military power.
"I have long appreciated the reputation of my predecessors. If the Yuzhu Kingdom is stationed in Liaodong in the future, it will definitely intimidate the small groups of all directions."
Chen Kefu really admired such a fierce man. However, after admiring him, his heart became even heavier. He just introduced two people, and they were all heavyweights. The remaining two were unknown who Yang Guang sent him. Although such old ministers did not bring troops, their prestige in the army was too high.
Yu Juluo smiled, patted Chen Kefu on the shoulder and said, "I'll introduce you to one too." He said, pointing to a veteran general next to him and said, "This is my partner when I went to Jianghuai to suppress bandits last time. Duke of Gucheng County, Zuo Guanglu, General Tuwanxu, General Tuwan and you are not from two families. The old man came from the general of the Guanlong family. Lord Tuwan was originally a left-behind Huaiyuan Town opposite the Liaohe River and the Zuotun Guard General. Last time, Your Majesty transferred him to Jianghuai and me, but he fought a lifelong battle, but fell into the hands of several mud tui. This time, His Majesty also sent him to Liaodong, so he has a companion."
Yu Juluo didn't care much about being demoted to Liaodong, and he kept laughing with a loud voice.
Chen Kefu is now the General of Zuotun Guard, and this 65-year-old Tu Wanxu was Chen Kefu's former General Zuotun Guard. He is indeed a family. Tu Wanxu is not a Han Chinese, but a Xianbei, but also from a military aristocratic family in Guanlong. He himself, his father and grandfather, were all Zhuguo, and were all generals in command of the army. Tu Wanxu was originally a confidant when Yang Guang was King of Jin, but later fought several battles with Yang Su. Tu Wanxu was not only good at fighting, but also good at governing the local area. He was a general who was both literary and military.
After Yang Xuangan rebelled, Yang Guang also became suspicious of him, so he transferred him from Huaiyuan Town to Jianghuai to suppress bandits. In the end, he was defeated by Yu Juluo. Although he defeated the rebels, he found an excuse to seize military power because of Yang Guang's suspicion and rushed to Liaodong. This time he entered Liao, his official position was the prefect of Fuyu County.
Chen Kefu smiled and went up to say hello, but his face remained unchanged, but his heart was almost overwhelmed.
Each of them is founding ministers of the old generation, three people, one is a civil and two martial artist. There is no need to guess the rest of the man, and it must be a great master. Seeing these old men, Chen Kefu even doubted whether someone had already contacted Yang Adou. Otherwise, how could Yang Guang have sent so many important imperial civil and military officials to come here at once?
First, there were Zhang Xutuo and Su Wei. Zhang Xutuo had just died. Five people came again, one prince, and four famous old ministers. This made Chen Kefu feel extremely heavy, and none of these people could meet.
The last Yang Liang introduced himself, but he did not expect it, and he was another heavyweight.
Dong Chun, the general of Zuo Xiaogu, and the Duke of Shunzheng County. He was also from a general of the Guanlong noble family. He was originally the general of the Zuo Beishi Mansion of the Imperial Guards beside Yang Guang. Later, he also fought several battles with Yang Su and won the throne country with his merits. He served as the prefect of Wenshan, the prefect of Yulin, and the remaining guard of Pengcheng. In recent years, like Zhang Xutuo, he has fought with the peasant army continuously and won every battle. Once, he directly beheaded more than 10,000 levels, and directly built a 10,000-level Jingguan at the head. Last year, he completely wiped out the East Sea pirate Peng Xiaocai and broke his car. However, he had the same qualifications as Yu Juluo, that is, he had fought with the famous general Yang Xuan, and fought many times.
Yang Guang killed all the Li family in the eastern capital, and began to carry out a great purge of the wealthy families of Guanlong in the Sui Dynasty. Relying on the new nobles in the court, Yang Guang began to fight all the efforts of the Guanlong military nobles who had always held great power in the court from the Western Wei, Northern Zhou and then to the Sui Dynasty. He first killed all the Li family, and then those related to the Li family were basically suppressed mercilessly. Next, Yang Guang re-reported the old story and found out the Yang Xuangan rebellion case. As long as the Guanlong nobles who were once related to Yang Su, especially those generals holding military power, were basically the targets of being cleaned.
Yu Juluo, Tu Wanxu, Dong Chun, all of them were Yang Su's subordinates, and they were all generals with heavy troops, and they were also from Guanlong nobles. Of course, Yang Guang would not be polite to them, and they all found a false excuse to exil the three of them to Liaodong.
However, Dong Chun's family is very powerful and is the target of Yang Guang's focus on attacks. He had already convicted him of death. However, Dong Chun also has an identity that only a few people know, that is, the current hard-core supporter of the former King of Qi, Yang Lai, the King of Liao.
Finally, Yu Shiji and Yang Lai's confidants took action together, and the Dong Chun family took out a lot of treasures and gave them to Yu Wen Shu. Finally, Yang Guang changed his decision and sent him to Liaodong. This time, the entrustment of Chun to Liao and became the prefect of Pyongyang County.
But what really surprised Chen Kefu in the end was that Yu Wenhe was transferred to Liaodong this time. Chen Kefu originally thought that he was just the responsibility of guarding Yilou, but he never thought that Yu Wenhe would say to himself with a smile that he was the new domestic county prefect, and he also served as the General of Zuo Tun Guard. There are 80,000 soldiers in Liaodong who are the soldiers of Zuo Tun Guard, and Zuo Tun Guard General is Zuo Suguan, second only to Chen Kefu, the general of Zuo Tun Guard.
Is this the first nail that Yang Guang broke into the Liaodong Army? Chen Kefu sneered in his heart. These senior officials were not in the information from the Special Service Department. The sudden arrival caught Chen Kefu off guard. However, after careful analysis, he felt that Yang Guang should not have come directly for him. These people, from King Yang Lai of Liao to veterans such as Yu Juluo, were basically exiled and exiled. Especially the few veterans, all came after they were seized from military power.
On the contrary, the arrival of Yu Wenji is a bit subtle. After receiving a few Yu Wenji's eyes, Chen Kefu was also a little clear-cut. Yang Guang was demoted to so many old nobles at once, but transferred the legitimate son of Yu Wenji to Liaodong. It is very likely that Yang Guang wanted to use his new noble to help him watch these old ministers. Yu Wenji's arrival was obviously to strengthen his own strength.
When Chen Kefu thought about the possible result, he felt a little amused and crying.
