Chapter 467 Infighting

With Cui Ganyou's death, the Battle of Baqiao finally ended. After receiving the promise of Yang Feng not to kill them, Tian Ganzhen led all the remaining rebels who were still resisting to put down their weapons.

Yang Feng's Western Regions Army won a complete victory.

In this largest decisive battle in the battle to regain Chang'an, the three towns in the Western Regions beheaded 10,000 and forced 35,000 enemy troops to surrender. An Lushan's three chief generals in Guanzhong were killed and surrendered, and only Zhang Tongru led 3,000 Hu cavalry to escape. As for other gains, it goes without saying that the number of rebels' horses was not like that of Dashi, it also added nearly 10,000 war horses and pack horses to Yang Feng. Moreover, the property that the rebels robbed and carried in Chang'an was cheaper than Yang Feng's cannon fodder. In addition, the armor and weapons of these rebels were all cheaper than Yang Feng's cannon fodder.

The latter is actually not armed at all.

Yang Feng arrested them as coolies, not letting them on the battlefield. Besides, he didn't have so many weapons, and his armory was not here in Saiye. Moreover, at this time, the army was trying hard to expand, and no one, including Li Heng, had any extra weapons for him.

But now they don't have to fight naked.

A total of 30,000 cannon fodder were all armed.

As for those surrendered troops...

Send the Western Regions to repair the Demon-Suppressing Tower!

Yang Dashuai spoke very simply.

Well, no one fights with him, and he will be captured by him. If he wants to kill, he will kill him, he will stay. Anyway, he will deal with it.

As for those prisoners...

They are not qualified to have opinions!

Four thousand three towns of auxiliary soldiers, ten thousand new soldiers from the river, and just escorted 30,000 surrendered troops to the river.

In addition, there are nearly 20,000 women who have been grabbed in various ways.

Yang Feng promised that no matter whether the surrendered army or the new recruits, they would send all the women to the ground after they arrived in the river. If there were not enough women in the river, then let the left-behind Mrs. Li arrange someone to go out and grab some points.

Or simply find Abu Musilin to purchase points.

This guy is conquering the city and land in Two Rivers. He must have snatched a lot of women. He will never refuse two big-food girls in his set of chain armor.

In short, the prisoners were dealt with in this way.

In fact, not only did he capture a large number of enemy troops, but at the end of the Battle of Baqiao, nearly 100,000 cannon fodder left or abandoned by Cui Ganyou, also surrendered to Guo Ziyi and Wang Sili in Chang'an. These people were all strong men captured by the rebels near Chang'an and even in the city. They were all disbanded and returned home with a very kind order by Li Chu. The officials with rebels were arrested and waited for disposal. The palace was cleaned up again, and the collapsed city walls were organized to repair them. The destroyed buildings in the city should be cleaned up and repaired. This is the capital. By the way, His Majesty the Emperor has to come back...

Well, this question is a bit troublesome for the time being.

It's really a bit troublesome.

At least Li Heng cannot return to his palace yet.

Because Li Longji is still in Chengdu.

Although he has already admitted that Li Heng succeeded to the throne, if Li Heng returns to Chang'an, he will not come back in Chengdu. So what is the meaning of the emperor Li Heng, if the emperor continues to issue orders in Chengdu?

Chang'an has returned to the Li family, but the question is who has the final say in the Li family has to fight.

To be precise, you have to look at another battlefield in the south.

Li Lin.

Li Lin rebelled.

Of course, Li Lin certainly did not rebel, and there was no doubt about this.

He was just a gun being used by his father.

Li Longji is not honest in Chengdu either.

Although he admitted that Li Heng succeeded the throne, he had already made arrangements to leave all his sons, Li Lin, the governor of Jiangling, Li Qi, the governor of Guangling, and Li Gong, the governor of Wuwei, all officially took office. In addition, he added a military governor to them, in fact, just to let them restrain Li Heng and let them take the opportunity to control military power. At that time, Li Longji could use these sons who held military power to force Li Heng to hand over the throne.

But his sons are not stupid either. Li Qi and Li Gong don’t go. We are not interested in being a gun envoy for you to compete with Li Heng for the throne. We will be our Prince of Taiping.

Only Li Lin went.

And he recruited troops in Jiangling completely according to his intentions, and quickly established an armed force with strong strength. Although Li Lin must have thought of joining with his father in the future, using Jianghuai and Jiannan's army to force Li Heng to abdicate again, and then his father ascended the throne again, and then made him the crown prince, it was just a plan, and it was not even a plan. At most, it was a little ambition in Li Lin's heart. At least for now, Li Heng said that he was rebelling was purely a slander. Why did he rebell? The great governor of Jiangling, the emperor's younger brother, led the army to inspect the Yangtze River according to the order of the Emperor to ensure the safety of the Emperor in Jiannan?

As the emperor's younger brother, the supreme commander of all the soldiers in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, the Tang Dynasty personally led the army to inspect and maintain the security along the Yangtze River, but local officials obstructed and even fought each other.

Is there any mistake in beating them?

This war is in chaos and turmoil. Who can guarantee that these local officials are not ambitious to be in separatist?

Is it wrong for me to consider my brother's country carefully?

I passed by Guangling to see if there was anything wrong?

Then is Guangling not a city of the Tang Dynasty? Am I a local official of the Tang Dynasty?

It makes no sense at all!

Of course, there is no need for Li Heng to reason with him. What is the reason for this kind of thing? Once Li Lin leads his army to Yangzhou, controls the financial source of the Tang Dynasty, and then conquers the southern vassal states and families with high officials and generous salaries, and uses material supply to seize the lifeline of the various armies in Guanzhong. Even if Li Heng returns to Chang'an, they will sooner or later be forced to hand over the throne and then return to the crown prince. One day, Li Longji is in a bad mood and can just catch a reason, and he can even get rid of his crown prince, and even enjoy a glass of poisonous wine in a few days.

These are all routines.

Therefore, Li Heng did not hesitate to send a tall poet to serve as the governor of Huainan and mobilize all obedient troops near Yangzhou to block Li Lin.

The result of the blocking has not yet been reported.

If Gao Shi wins, Li Longji will definitely have no tricks. After all, he only has the card Li Heng in his hand. After Li Heng finishes, he can only be his Supreme Emperor honestly and devote himself to being his Supreme Emperor. But if Gao Shi loses, Li Heng must be ready to take the lead. He either becomes a filial son in Lingwu and returns to the position of Supreme Emperor easily. From then on, he will hold his tail and fight for his father's leniency, or he will be determined to send troops south to protect his father, and simply snatch his father into his hands.

Then even if you don’t hit An Lushan first, you have to deal with his brother first.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Yang Feng, and he knew that Li Lin would be dealt with soon, so after he recovered Chang'an, he immediately turned into a state of idleness. Li Chu did not participate in the handling of government affairs. Even the glorious task of pursuing the thief army to revive his hometown Huayin was given to Guo Ziyi. He took out a lot of transfer documents from Mrs. Guo and began to accept Mrs. Guo's property. As for the date of these documents, it must have been a long time ago. Because he and Mrs. Guo had long given him all his property, including the mansions in Chang'an City, the manors outside the city, the land, bank shares, shops, and even the slaves of Mrs. Guo's family were all his.

In fact, Li Heng must have guessed that Lady Guo was rescued by him, and even folk rumors were there. After all, he was so arrogant when saving people, and it was easy to guess.

But the news that Sister Yuhuan was rescued was unknown to the public. Li Longji blocked the news and even pretended to build another tomb for Sister Yuhuan. As for whether Li Heng knew or not, it was unknown, but the public did not know. The public just guessed that he rescued Lady Guoguo. He took out these documents now, which basically agreed. However, this has nothing to do with Li Heng. Li Heng didn't mind pretending to be stupid in this matter. It was not surprising that he came to save people first with Yang Feng and Lady Guoguo. Now Yang Feng is a purple golden beam to him. He could not influence the relationship between the two parties for a worthless woman.

So Yang Feng completely accepted all the industries of Mrs. Guoguo.

Even Yang Guozhong's mansion and several fields were rewarded to him by Li Heng.

Li Heng likes generals who are greedy for money.

A general who is not greedy for money, lust or robbed will make him feel like a thorn in his throat. A general like Yang Feng who is corrupt in military discipline, who is desperate for women and who likes to steal things is the emperor's most reassurance. When his subordinates continue to do evil in Chang'an City and cannot steal women everywhere, it makes the public resentment, Li Heng is even more satisfied with Yang Feng.

Speaking of which, more and more people have sued Yang Feng for a black case recently.

Li Heng was very pleased with this.

However, he did not give Yang Feng an official title, but asked Li Chu to hint that once he took back Luoyang, he would be granted the title of Prince and Sikong. In addition, he was dismissed from Li Siye's Anxi Jiedushi, and then Li Siye was appointed as the minister of the minister. He was promoted to Hezhong as the governor of the army. Even Zhao Chongyan from Beiting also entered the court, and he was also in charge of the army with the governor of Beiting.

If Yang Feng is willing to enter the court as an official, then Li Siye will continue to be the governor of Anxi, and he will be appointed as the Shizhong, and he will be the commander of Hezhong. In short, once Luoyang is captured, then Yang Feng will be appointed as the prince, Sikong, and the prime minister as an official in the court. If he does not want to enter the court as an official, he will also be the three towns in the Western Regions. It can be said that he can almost make full promises to him. In exchange for Yang Feng, he also needs to do one thing for Li Heng, that is, to send letters to Gao Xianzhi, Zhao Guozhen, and He Luguang, the three southern vassal states with the best relationship with him. Once Gao Shi was defeated in Guangling, then Yang Feng will hold these three vassal states that can almost determine the situation in the south through Yang Feng. If necessary, the three families join forces with Li Heng's army to control Chengdu from north to south to prevent Li Longji from causing trouble in Jiannan.

At this time, Zhao Guozhen was already the governor of Qianzhong.

Even the three of them sent some troops to support Lu Jing and helped Lu Jing defend Nanyang to this day.

Of course, Yang Feng agreed generously to this.
