Section 80 The Duke of Pengcheng County
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
There was only one person flying and running in the schoolyard, and the hammer shadows that were struck out in a series of golden illusions were transformed into the field.
The short and sturdy man jumped up, and a pair of gourds and golden gourds in his hand hovering wildly in the air, making a shrill whistle in the air.
When the man finally ran out, he threw it out hard and hit a piece of earth bun. The gourd and golden gourd were hammered on the earth bun, stirring up a burst of yellow dust. The earth bun swayed for a while and finally collapsed.
The body landed, and the short and strong man sat cross-legged, calmed his breath, and slowly got up after a while. A personal guard had come over to lower his sweat towel and wiped it. The short and strong man then threw away his sweat towel and walked straight out of the field, "Import Zhu Mi and Jin Zhong and the others to come."
The atmosphere in the hall was solemn, and everyone knew that the Jiedushi would decide the future of the Taining Army today.
"Golang, Kim Zhong, I have decided to return to Jeju!"
Zhu Mao is not an indecisive person, and he will not change it once he makes a decision.
The reason why I hesitated before was indeed because of the fact that this matter was large and it was a difficult choice for the four troops under my command, but the actual difficulties in front of them could no longer be delayed.
The grain can only last for two to three months, and it can only save food. Judging from the astronomical climate this year, it is basically a foregone conclusion that there is no harvest of autumn grain, and the Taining Army really can't hold on.
Since Huaiyou has offered the right conditions, Zhu Mao felt that he had no reason not to accept it.
Zhu Mao did not consider Huaiyou's suggestion that he wanted him to submit.
It is only one aspect that cannot be put down on the face. The key is that the Huaiyou system structure makes Zhu Mao a little unacceptable.
Once you join Huaiyou, your complete four armies will have to be included in the Huaiyou system for reorganization. According to the Huaiyou envoy, middle-level officers will enter the school for rotation.
There is no doubt that this is a kind of cleaning, and the next thing is to mix sand and exchange jobs. Officers from Luzhou or Shouzhou come to their own military service, while their brothers have to work in other military forces at Huaiyou.
Jiang Feng played this trick very smoothly, but the effect was also very good. Otherwise, how could Jiang Feng, a young man, control the huge Huai Youjun? He would do the same if he had done it himself.
"Second brother, when we return to Jeju, how much food does Huaiyou provide? How will our relationship with Huaiyou be located in the future?"
The tall man with a thick beard on his face is Zhu Mao's cousin Zhu Mi, and he has always been Zhu Mao's closest assistant.
He was originally more inclined to invest in Huaiyou because he realized that with the shortcomings in the Taining Army's internal affairs, even if the Taining Army went to Jeju to gain a foothold, it would be difficult for him to survive in this chaotic world.
His cousin was unwilling to join Huaiyou and left him helpless. He could not leave his cousin and join Huaiyou Army, so he could only follow his cousin.
But he needs to figure out how to get along with Huaiyou in the future.
Without Huaiyou's support, it would be difficult for Zhu Mao to open up the situation in Jeju.
You should know that the Zhu family has been away from Jeju for ten years. Although the Jeju gentry did not have much favoritism for Daliang, the influence of the Zhu family in Jeju is also constantly fading over time.
When I go back now, how many gentry will support my cousin, Zhu Mi doesn’t have much clue.
But now I have to go back if I don’t know what I have decided on. No one can change what my cousin decided.
"Huaiyou promised to provide our 10,000 people with three months of food, which will be transported from Huainan to deliver it to Sucheng. If the summer grain is still not enough to be used next year, Huaiyou will provide another three months of food." Zhu Mao said concisely.
Zhu Mi nodded, which was reasonable. Jeju had Ji River flowing through, and water conservancy irrigation canals were OK. If there were no military disasters and floods, life should be acceptable. With six months of food support, there should be no big problems.
Now, the most important thing for the survival of an army is food. Jiang Fengba lived in the Huainan granary, which is his confidence.
In fact, the situation in Yanzhou is not bad, but over the years, the Taining Army has been too addicted to war and neglected local construction, so that once it encounters a severe drought, it will be unable to support it.
"Training in Sucheng? Giant wild thieves are rampant..." Gao Jinzhong couldn't help but frown.
"Hmph, Huaiyou probably wants to attack the Juye thief. Maybe we need to cooperate too, depending on the situation." Zhu Mi said lightly: "Give people money and get rid of disasters with others."
"Then when will we leave?" Gao Jinzhong no longer asked. As long as there was food, everything was easy to say, and he was not afraid of Huaiyou's defeat. At worst, he could kill him again, and the left and right were fighting.
"It depends on Huaiyou's arrangement. They probably will be within 10 or 20 days." Zhu Mao raised his head, seemed to be feeling a little emotional, and then his eyes became firm again, "This time we return to Jeju is to be reborn and reborn, and we will die. If we still cannot, it is a certain virtue. God will abandon someone, and there is no way to say something."
************************************************
On July 19, the fifth year of Jingtai, Li He, judge of the Chongzhengyuan of Daliang, signed an agreement with the governor of Huaiyou, Wang Miao. The agreement stipulated that the Liang army and Shang Yunxi tribe, the troops of Shang's Yunxi tribe, would withdraw from Xuzhou, and Daliang and Huaiyou maintained their original good relationship. Huaiyou would provide 200,000 stanchions of money to Shang's Yunxi tribe.
Of course, these money can also be discounted by grain. Huaiyou will transport these money or the discounted food to Songzhou within three months.
On July 23, an edict from the court officially abolished the position of Jiedushi Army and appointed Jiang Feng, the right governor of Huaiyou, to serve as the governor of Wuning, to control the three prefectures of Xu Sihai, and to officially grant Jiang Feng the title of Duke of Pengcheng County.
Wuning Jiedushi is also a title that has been repeatedly abolished and abolished. It was abolished many times in the middle of the Tang Dynasty. After the Shi family established the status of the Influence Army, Wuning no longer existed, but this time it was picked up by the court again.
The two states of Ying and Bo were divided for no reason. Jiang Feng didn't need to think too much about this. This must have been the result of Caizhou's emergency public relations after Feng resigned to the court as governor of the Jiedushi Army. The two states of Ying and Bo were essentially controlled by the Yuan family of Caizhou, which was probably one of the reasons why the court finally made this decision.
Regarding the Huaiyou Jiedushi, the court did not formally clarify the control of Huaiyou, because Huaiyou was a relatively large range, and most of the scope of Huaiyou was under the control of Yang Wu at that time. However, this time, the control of the Wuning Jiedushi clarified the three prefectures of Xu Sihai. Fortunately, it was still clearly attributed to Wuning, which also means that it was morally illegal for the Pinglu army to seize Haizhou.
On July 26, the Liang army monk Shang Yunxi's troops officially withdrew from Xuzhou and retreated to Songzhou through Xiaoxian. It is expected that they will go north from Songzhou through Chuqiu and Jiyin (the capital of Caozhou Prefecture) to Puzhou, and then from Puzhou to Jizhou. During this period, Shangyunxi will go to Bianjing to meet His Royal Highness King Liang.
On the third day of the August 1st, Yu Mingzhen announced the change of flags in Xuzhou and officially joined Huaiyou; on the eighth day of the August 1st, the troops of the two counties in Yanbei announced the change of flags and followed Huaiyou; on the ninth day of the August 1st, the three counties in southern Yanzhou and their Pinglu Taining Army announced the change of flags, which was a turbulent moment.
On August 11, the four Zhu Mao troops stationed in Xiaqiu suddenly set off north and arrived in Sucheng within three days, and then quickly entered Jeju.
On August 15th, it defeated Pingyin, on August 18th, it defeated Jeju Prefecture in Lu County. On August 20th, Dong'e surrendered, on August 22nd, it captured Yanggu, on the 25th, Changqing surrendered, and the entire Jeju fell into Zhu Mao's hands.
However, at that time, Daliang had no time to take care of a corner of Jeju because the Shatuo people invaded in large numbers.
******************************************
"The Dangxiang people lead the Ma Weihe River, and the court still has the intention to divide and govern it?" Jiang Feng sneered and put the edict aside. "Since the court intends to hand over the two prefectures of Ying and Bo to the Yuan family, then ask the Yuan family to send troops to help the Dangxiang people. By the way, did the Liu family in Nanyang take over Guangzhou now? They have gained something, so they should contribute money and efforts, right?"
Xue Tong, who was sitting opposite, was also a little embarrassed. Of course, he knew the reason why the Yuan family was staying in Yingbo and Bo, but this kind of thing was not worthy of being told by outsiders. This time the court sent him to Xuzhou to touch the miraculously rising new Duke of Pengcheng County in front of him.
The reason why Yuchi Wubing, who is a friend of Jiang Feng, was not arranged to come. On the one hand, Yuchi Wubing was in a bad state and was in poor health. On the other hand, the Privy Council envoy Xu Mo was also worried that Yuchi Wubing could not rationally judge the future direction of Huaiyou represented by Jiang Feng because of his personal relationship, so he let himself come.
"Erlang, this is a bad word." For Jiang Feng, even if Jiang Feng has been granted the title of Duke of Pengcheng County, Xue Tong can still call him Erlang. "The court also has difficulties for the court. You have been to Chang'an. You should know the hardships of the court now. Some things should not be investigated in depth."
The Nine-Qing Family of Chang'an was originally a mess of muddy ponds. The Xue family and the Yuchi family were both members. It would be not easy for the Xue family to say this.
"Mr. Xue, I know the difficulties of the court, and I don't plan to go into any further. After all, this is the world. Now that the Yuan family has occupied the two prefectures of Yingbo, the court will not agree to it. If Huaiyou has the power to take back Yingbo, I believe the court will not be stingy to give Jiang a military governor to control the five prefectures of Yingbo. If Huaiyou cannot do it, it will be unrepentant."
Jiang Feng's words were quite reasonable, which surprised Xue Tong.
If you don’t occupy Yingbo, it doesn’t make much sense to give you a title. If you really can snatch the two states of Yingbo from the Yuan family, the court will recognize your behavior. This is the world.
"So, what are Erlang's plans for the next step?" Xue Tong asked carefully.
"I don't have many plans, marry, take a concubine, and have a child. Oh, this is probably the thing I should do most now." Jiang Feng smiled bitterly. This was also the first letter of a group of subordinates who wrote a letter to the Duke of Pengcheng County after he was granted the title of Gong of Pengcheng County. He strongly asked him to quickly marry, take a concubine and have a child. "Of course, Haizhou matters also need to be handled."
