The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

That night, several senior generals of the Zhongyong Army gathered in the Prince's camp study. Zhao Qiong informed them of the current situation. After the Prince said that, everyone was silent.

"Prince, it has been nearly a month since the southeast Fangla rebelled. Why has the recent news from the Beijing city not mentioned at all? Maybe the rumors are false, right?" Zhao Yong was the first to calm down and asked.

"It's nothing strange. Grandmaster Cai retired and Wang Fu was in charge of the government. Now it's almost the New Year. He must have wanted the emperor to have a peaceful life year and suppress Fang La's attack on Qingxi and Muzhou!" Gao Chong looked at

The prince smiled and said, "Everyone in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty knew that the emperor liked to listen to good things, and everyone agreed to his preferences, not to report good news, which made the emperor like a fool, and listened to old news as news."

"No way? After Wang Fu took office, he reformed bad policies, implemented new policies, and overturned all the policies formulated by Prince Cai. The emperor praised him for being a good minister and a true contemporary scholar. How could he deceive the emperor!" Zhao Zhi shook his head and said.

"He is just a playboy, and he has a good skin. Not only has he been beaten by our prince, but I have also caught him from the railing. Can the 'true scholar' do those unresolved things!" Zhao Zhong once followed the prince to do in Beijing.

'Anti-pornography', he had dealt with Wang Fu and said with a smile.

"Brother Zhong, don't say that. At least Grand Secretary Wang canceled the Ministry of Justice, which is very beneficial to us. The green and white salt in Yanzhou is enough for us to eat and drink!" Zhao Zhi said.

"After catching salt that doesn't cost money, have you eaten too much? Now Fang La is causing trouble in Jiangnan, the prince is anxious. You still have time to talk nonsense!" Zhao Ren waited for the two of them and said.

"Oh?!" Zhao Yong looked at the prince's embarrassing look and realized first. The emperor was the prince's father. It must be for this matter if everyone came here. "Prince, do you think Fang La will rebel?)

We Hedong Army went to suppress the rebellion?"

"It's hard to say now. Since the Secretariat refused to report and did not receive the emperor's approval, who would dare to mobilize the army without authorization? But we must also be prepared to return to the army at any time!" Zhao Qi smiled gratefully at Zhao Ren.

I know who Zhao Ji's father is. Sometimes he really doesn't distinguish between good and bad people, and he speaks like farts. He doesn't bear any responsibility and likes to act emotionally. At the beginning, he even described Cai Jing as Duke Zhou and sent someone to Jiangnan to send Yuhuan to this old thief

‰ When he returned to Beijing, he praised Wang Fu for his words, but after replacing Tai Shi Cai, he claimed that he wanted to eliminate Cai Jing's tyranny, which really deceived many people. It can be seen that most people are easily confused by the so-called new policy;

Furthermore, Wang Fu calls himself the "Prince of Taiping". Letting the emperor enjoy peace and peace is the biggest politics. This kind of "scandal" is naturally covered up. However, Zhao Qi knew that this matter was too great and the price he paid was too much.

It was so big. The turmoil that lasted only half a year would cost two million people their lives. The foundation of the Song Dynasty was shaken.

"Fang La now calls himself the king, carrying 200,000 good people and leaving several prefectures and counties. Jiangnan was deeply harmed by Huashigang, and responded to it. However, those corrupt officials were unable to suppress it. The Secretariat suppressed the emperor and refused to report to the emperor. It was us

The Hedong Army is willing to quell the rebellion, but also weak, and it is likely to cause a disaster over time!" Zhao Meng said with concern. Now, "The King of Southeast" Zhu Jie learned that the capital supervisor Cai Zun did not return, and ordered the abandoned city to escape.

Chen Guang killed his scoundrel and dismissed Zhang Huiyan, the governor of Muzhou, who was incompetent, and tried to kill and warn him to prevent the officials from fleeing. However, the defeat was like a mountain of defeat, and the severe punishment and law could no longer prevent those corrupt officials from fleeing.

"Zhao Meng said it well. If the Southeast incident is serious, we may have to use our Western Army. But now we are entangled with Xixia. If we withdraw our troops like this, we will be busy this Western Expedition. The prince should make plans early.

!” Zhao Ren said that in the late period of Renzong, the Zhuang tribe, Nong Zhigao, rebelled against Song, occupied most of the Lingnan area, and other regular troops went to attack, but were defeated by Nong Zhigao in a few seconds. This chaos lasted for several years. Finally,

Di Qing, who was also transferred to the Western Army, and Yang Wenguang fought south and pacified Nong Zhigao in half a year, so he realized that he might have to dispatch the Western Army to solve the problem.

"Although the thief is powerful, they are unable to become great things when they are against the will of heaven. In the end, the only people are suffering!" Zhao Qiong said. He knew that the peasant uprising in history followed the feudal ideas and organizational forms.

In this country, he is the king, the emperor, and promotes himself to become an official, without a complete set of political programs and long-term guidelines, even if he seizes power, he will eventually enter a dead end in history.

To put it bluntly, the peasant riots are too rustic. They do not have advanced productivity and are unwilling to appoint literati. Officials are think tanks and use poor buddies who "make a revolution" with them. The organization is pure.

, but the eyes are equally short-sighted, which means that the interest in movement is difficult to change qualitatively. The defeated peasant leaders could not see this. Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, and Li Zicheng occupied Beijing, severely tortured Ming Dynasty officials and exploited wealth.

in this way.

The same is true for Fang La Uprising. He just got a county town and was busy as the emperor, granting his wife and son, and conferring his subordinates the king and official position. He was not considering how to grow and grow, but his origins were from Manichaeism propaganda ideas.

It is still difficult to leave the statement in its doctrine. Manichaeism's "vegetarian service" is contrary to traditional Confucianism and Buddhist ritual norms. It is regarded as an evil religion that is depressed and despicable. The main god it believes in is also "famous and upright sects"

When an evil demon is suppressed, it is the mainstream of thought.

Wherever the riots went, they burned, killed, looted, and robbed good people. The gentry and wealthy families became the targets of their severe revenge, and their methods were cruel and outrageous, but not all of these people were bad people, but they

They treat each other equally without discrimination, nor pay attention to a united front. Another thing is that they, the so-called rebels, do not engage in production, and specialize in looting the government, and the wealthy families maintain their operations, distribute their wealth to the people, win support, and join them one after another.

But once the people become 'rebels', no one is engaged in production, and the wealthy government will be robbed all of them. Without these, they will become robbers one day. The bandits will inevitably arouse the disgust of the people and lose their place.

The basis of relying on.

Therefore, regardless of what Zhao Qi knew from his previous life or the current situation, he believed that Fang La was not a comrade who traveled through time, but was still the king of grass. The riots he led must have been self-destructive, victory was accidental, failure was

It is inevitable that the vast majority of people in Jiangnan suffered from the "Flower and Stone Gang" and suffered from the second set of suffering from these bandits and were punished by the official army.

"The current situation is not allowed to continue the Western Expedition, no matter whether our Western Army is transferred to the southeast to suppress the rebellion, we will not allow us to continue the Western Expedition. The court is likely to have peace talks. We must make corresponding preparations in the next step!" Zhao Qi said after analyzing and living a life

To calculate, war must also calculate. Before fighting, you must settle the accounts, and you cannot relax when you are a disciple. This is not an easy thing to walk into the account room from the battlefield of being voluntarily. If you don’t pay attention,

Maybe you lose money.

"Prince, although the situation is like this, the peace talks are discussed by the court. Now, Xixia sent envoys to the court on the one hand, and on the other hand, it bribed Tong Guan to withdraw its troops. Instead, it deliberately missed us, so that we can know his intentions.

With the help of others, we force us to withdraw our troops, lose the initiative in peace talks, and will fall into a passive position everywhere!" Wang Jin said.

"Hmph, Brother Cha lost the guy and lost the battle. He still doesn't accept it. He plays the trick of cutting off the firewood from the cauldron. I'll let him see if there is no Tong Guan's rotten egg, I can make a trunk cake!" Zhao Qiong

Knowing that what Wang Jin said is true and why the Shaanxi army was transferred back by Tong Guan, Zhao Qi had already sent back the news from the Intelligence Department to know the details, but it was Cha Ge and Tong Guan who sang a double act.

Cha Ge went to Lanzhou to meet Tong Guan, bribed him with a lot of money, and cleverly spoke and provoked his relationship with Zhao Qiong. He reached a secret agreement with him in both ways. As for what benefits he got, it is still unknown, and then sent troops to the vicinity of Lanzhou.

After a circle, Tong Guan immediately shouted in surprise, "The Xia army invaded Hehuang", and reported to the capital, dispatched troops and soldiers to Lanzhou, and followed the situation to cooperate with Jingyuan Road in the western expedition, and the two armies of the Fuyan Road were transferred back.

The plan was very vicious, which caused Zhao Qi to lack troops, making him unable to continue the Western Expedition, and could give Xixia the initiative in peace talks.

"Prince, I think Xixia is trying to put our Hedong Army outside the peace talks. Without our participation, they can benefit from it. So we are facing not only Brother Cha, but also some people from the court!"

Zhao Ren said.

"Well, let me tell you what you think!" Zhao Qi nodded and encouraged him to continue talking. Now that Zhao Ren can see these things from it, it means that he is not only mature in military affairs, but also in politics.

"Prince, I think we should 'promote the harmony'!" Zhao Ren coughed gently and continued to say, "If there is such a big thing in the southeast, Xixia will not be out of here, so what happened in the southeast is not bad.

We know that we can think of it, with Cha Ge's cunning, we must also expect that the court would draw the Western army to quell the rebellion, and to draw the Western army, we must first end the Western expedition and attack the Xia sample, which will be beneficial to our peace talks, will reverse,

At this time, Taiwei Tong withdrew from the Shaanxi Army. Brother Cha had reason to think that it was us who were anxious, not them, so that he could make profits in the peace talks. Therefore, our army cannot wait for the peace talks at this time and should continue to attack.

Let them feel that our Hedong Army can not only complete the Western Expedition, but also easily capture Xingzhou, forcing it to make concessions and break Cha Ge's conspiracy!"

"Okay, you said it well. It seems that you can become a general who stands alone!" Zhao Qiong smiled after hearing Zhao Ren's analysis, agreeing with his idea very much, showing his 'muscle' appropriately even in negotiations

It is also a good tactic in progress. (To be continued...
