I Am a Wishing Tree

Chapter 38: Episode 16

The land of Sichuan and Shu has always been prosperous. It has jurisdiction over four states, Chengzhou, Jiangzhou, Fengzhou, and Yuanzhou. The younger brother Chengwang's vassal territory, and the other three states have always been big taxpayers of the imperial court.

Because of the remote location, the control of the imperial court will inevitably be relatively weak, and the huge interests allow some careerists to see the opportunity, and rebellions occur from time to time.

It's just that this rebellion is different from the previous kind of small fights where bandits gather in a certain cottage and occupy the land as the king. This rebellion turned out to be an official force headed by King Cheng. Collusion with the nominal civil forces to rebel, involving three prefectures, only Fengzhou is still struggling to persevere.

Before King Cheng rebelled, people asked the court for money and food to suppress the rebellion on the grounds that there were refugees in Chengzhou and Jiangzhou. It was the initiator of this great rebellion.

The imperial court, which has always been kept in the dark, even provided a large amount of military supplies to the other party, which made Emperor Mingjing furious and chilling at the same time.

Uncle, no one does not praise him for his loyalty and honesty.

Therefore, in the face of this huge rebellion, which has already given the other party the upper hand, before being able to distinguish between the loyal and the traitor, Emperor Mingjing did not know who to send to quell the rebellion. just fine.

With Chengzhou under its control, the official forces in Jiangzhou and Yuanzhou either surrendered directly or were attacked like a broken bamboo. Too much thinking time.

He Ai, who was working nearby, appeared in his mind at this time. After He Ai arrived in the land of Yungui, he first reorganized his armaments and firmly grasped the local military power in his own hands. Later, it was precisely by virtue of these advantages that it was possible to solve the problems of those local forces smoothly, and it was never concealed from Emperor Mingjing.

.

The only thing that worried Emperor Mingjing was that He Ai was born in the imperial examinations. Emperor Mingjing was not sure about the matter.

In the current situation, only He Ai is the most reassuring and trustworthy candidate for Emperor Mingjing. to fight.

As an informal part-time soldier, he has never even participated in military exercises. In terms of military command, he only has some theoretical knowledge and no experience.

This time, she suddenly received an order to calm down, which really made her feel a little helpless. She is indeed a former soldier, who has undergone arduous military training, participated in battles, and is dressed in a military uniform. Her aura is strong enough, and she looks quite convincing.

These soldiers in the guard house of Yungui were all trained by Zhang Wuquan and Han Xun according to the training plan provided to Jinlan Academy by He Ai.

In the past five years, they have used a system similar to the military system of the previous dynasty, so that these soldiers not only maintain daily training, but also participate in farming and other work, and continue to cultivate a large number of soldiers in wartime Soldiers who can be summoned to battle immediately.

Sufficient meat supply makes this group of soldiers strong and strong, and the uninterrupted training makes them outstanding, and they are a team of elite soldiers.

Because He Ai knew the importance of fighting right away in this cold weapon era, the steppe barbarians who threatened the Zhou Dynasty the most were relying on the advantage of fighting right away, making the Zhou Dynasty repeatedly suffer a lot.

After He Ai took full control of the rights of the Yungui guard house, on the basis of the original horse farm of the guard house, he made a large purchase at any cost to cultivate a batch of thoroughbred horses. In the past two or three years, after no longer having to deal with Wu Yueze's group of local forces, he not only confiscated the group of private soldiers that Wu Yueze raised in the dark, but also gained the other side's horse farm by the way.

Legion.

After leaving a small number of soldiers to deal with some unexpected situations that may occur in the territory of Yungui, He Ai led the horse army to the territory of Sichuan and Shu quickly.

Food and other supplies are fully prepared, and they are on the road first. He Ai does not know much about the war in the age of cold weapons, but she not only has Zhang Wuquan, Han Xun and other military talents An extremely strong assistant who has been taught by experienced veterans, and she has the advantages of her previous life, she is very familiar with the terrain of this land of Yungui and Chuanshu.

A more convenient marching route, offensive route, etc.

This amazing ability made Zhang Wuquan and the others worried at first, but the final result proved that He Ai was really not in command.

She ordered the food to be baked into dry food similar to the compressed cake of later generations, so that all soldiers could carry it with them, giving up unnecessary baggage, which greatly accelerated the marching speed, so as to be shorter than expected A lot of time to enter the land of Sichuan and Shu.

At this time, Fengzhou was at a critical juncture about to fall. He Ai led the attack from the enemy's rear and penetrated directly into the base camp of the rebels like a broken bamboo, which greatly relieved Fengzhou. pressure.

The rebels, who were originally quite high in quality, were not opponents at all.

Coupled with He Ai's efficient marching speed, the time to arrive in Sichuan and Shu completely exceeded the opponent's expectations, and the opponent's main troops were gathered in the Fengzhou area at this time, led by King Cheng himself The team plans to go all out to take Fengzhou, in order to be able to collect the land of Sichuan and Shu as soon as possible.

Not only was the defense of the prefectures and counties under the control of Cheng Wang’s hands vulnerable, but even the defensive strength of the base camp in the rear was insufficient. If the land is settled, all the people who become kings and the families that are attached to the king will be taken down, and those who have been controlled because they are unwilling to join forces will be released, and they will temporarily preside over the local political situation.

After successfully taking the Chengwang Mansion, He Ai asked people to give Cheng Wang Xiaoxin, who was on the front line to personally lead a team to besiege Fengzhou. If not, she will kill her.

Seeing that one by one in the team was **** and put on the shackles, there was still a fearless family member of the king, Han Xun turned around and rushed forward, came to He Ai's side, and kept a close relationship with her. A horse's head away from the parallel, worriedly discouraged.

"General, let's send someone to **** them back to the capital first. After all, they are all members of the royal family. Even if they commit such a serious crime, they should be judged by Dali Temple and the royal family Zongzheng. ."

In any war, it is impossible to have no casualties, even if their trip is a very small cost of casualties, in exchange for a great victory, but even if they are psychologically prepared, those who have lost will also be lost. It was all He Ai's heartache. He hated Cheng Wangfu who started this rebellion. Hearing Han Xun's persuasion, he just waved his hand.

the value of!"

Han Xun, who already knew about He Ai's reckless style, became heavier when he heard this. The more he knew about He Ai's plan, the more uneasy he felt.

It was also because the emperor of that generation had only four brothers, one died early and the other died young, leaving only such a brother of a mother and compatriot, who was greatly favored by the empress dowager and the emperor at that time.

Adoption, can not find a family with many sons.

This phenomenon of sparse population also caused the royal family to pay special attention to the blood of the Chai family, and even the emperor had to worry a lot. , the descendants are still relatively prosperous, which is a rare case in the royal family, which also puts more pressure on Han Xun.

I glanced at this right-hand man who was very wise, but he was more than stable due to too many worries, and brave but not enough. Just had to explain.

"When things go wrong, there must be demons. The whole world knows that it is difficult for the descendants of the royal family, but when you come to this palace, your descendants suddenly become prosperous, and you suddenly start rebelling. You can't Take a closer look?"

"Did the Holy One tell you?"

"No, I have dealt with this side a lot in the past two years. I think the situation of the palace is a bit inconsistent, and people will find out. Let's get started!"

Even if you know that this is a royal scandal, and it is too late to cover up, I am afraid that he will not admit that once He Ai makes a move, he will also fall deadly.

"Okay, you can act as you see fit, don't worry about it now!"
