Chinese General Summoning System

Chapter 388: Western Region Dugofu and Beiting Dugofu

On July 23, Dajin 427, in the Taiyuan Hall of Dajin Canglong City Palace, the Queen Mother Zhou, sitting behind the curtain, spoke to hundreds of court ministers on both sides of the hall and said: "All the Aiqings should have known about Qianzhou. The memorial sent to the court by Liu Ji, the prefect of Da'an County and the guerrilla general, what do the Aiqings have on the several things mentioned by Liu Ji?"

Sitting in front of the curtain, Liu Heng, the emperor of Jin Dynasty, had a look of joy at this time. The few things that Liu Ji mentioned in the memorial this time made Liu Heng, the young emperor, feel sincerely excited.

The Prince Dou Yan of the Ministry of War first went out and said: "The story of the Dongfan tribe’s return to the east and the four protections of the Western Regions played by the Empress Dowager, the emperor, and Liu Ji, the minister believes should be quickly sent to the Western Regions for verification. Once it is verified that this is the case, the Dongfan tribe and the four protective palaces that have been in the Western Regions for more than 100 years should be rewarded immediately."

Lieutenant Yang Zhong then went out and said: "The return of the Eastern Fans to the east and the persistence of the four guards of the Western Regions are all epic feats. Once verified, the two pieces of the glorious history should be listed immediately. The matter is announced to the world to show the mighty grace of my great promotion!"

"The minister seconded!" "The minister seconded!"...

After the military chief Dou Yan and the official chief Yang Zhong finished speaking, dozens of ministers stepped forward to express their approval. The return of the Eastern Fan tribe to the east and the four guard houses of the Western Regions that have persisted for more than a hundred years are tantamount to going forward. The Jin imperial court’s face was gold, and these ministers wanted to tell the world about these two things immediately, so that everyone in the world would know.

Queen Mother Zhou nodded and said: "Presumably Liu Ji will not fool the court on these two matters, but what should be verified is to verify. Then for Liu Ji's request, he will personally manage the land occupied by the Western Regions. And what do you think of the grasslands occupied by the grasslands? There are also the people of the Eastern Fan tribe and the soldiers and civilians of the four prefectures of the Western Regions. How should our court arrange them?"

The military chief Dou Yan hesitated and said: "According to Liu Ji's memorial, his army is in the Western Regions, and not only has it captured the eight vassal states in the Western Regions of the Great Jin Dynasty, I wish Qi, Xugu, Shiqu, and Daoxu. Kingdom, Wengda Kingdom, Qiwu Kingdom, Dana Kingdom, and Yuanba Kingdom captured ten provinces within the jurisdiction of the Eastern Dudu of Gaochang Kingdom. On the grassland side, Liu Ji’s army defeated ten provinces headed by the Khitan tribe. After the Hu people coalition forces, they have occupied a large amount of grassland, which shows that the combat effectiveness of Liu Ji's army is indeed very strong."

After a pause, Prince Dou Yan of the Ministry of War continued: "However, it is precisely because Liu Ji's army is too strong, and the tail is too big. The minister thinks that Liu Ji should not be given greater authority, and should find ways to restrict Liu Ji as soon as possible. As for the people of the Eastern Fan tribe and the soldiers and civilians of the four prefectures of the Western Regions, the officials believed that they could be moved to Qianzhou for resettlement."

At this time, Queen Mother Zhou sighed and said: "Now the situation in the southeast is erosive, and there is absolutely no more trouble in the north. Ai Jia feels that he can agree to Liu Ji's request and let Liu Ji go to deal with the Hu people of all ethnic groups on the grassland and Gaochang in the Western Regions. China, what do all the Aiqing think?"

Hearing the Queen Mother Zhou mentioning the situation in the southeast of the Great Jin Dynasty, the military chief Dou Yan secretly sighed and turned his head to cast a glance at his deputy, Shangshu Han Renji.

In April of this year, the 200,000 imperial troops in the capital led by the Hussar General Li Hong, the 150,000 Xiang Army and local troops in Suzhou, and the 150,000 Xiang Army in several states surrounding Suzhou, were defeated by the southeast giant Zhang Ming. Odd Hand, the 500,000 imperial army was annihilated by 400,000. Hussar General Li Hong escaped out of Suzhou with only 100,000 people. Almost all of these 100,000 were forbidden troops.

Nowadays, Zhang Mingqi's army has not only occupied the entire Suzhou, but also occupied half of Qiongzhou and a county in Lianzhou, and its military strength has been snowballed to more than 1.5 million.

Hussar General Li Hong took one hundred thousand imperial troops and another 180,000 Xiang army and local army to guard the remaining half of Qiongzhou. Hussar General He Guangzong, who was dispatched after the imperial court, brought two hundred thousand imperial troops and two soldiers. The 150,000 Xiang army and the local army fought fierce battles with the army of the magnate Zhang Mingqi in Lianzhou.

Hussar General Li Hong and Hussar General He Guangzong have recently sent memorials to the court for help, hoping that the court can send them additional reinforcements. Because of the superiority of the army under the giant Zhang Mingqi, the court armies of Qiongzhou and Lianzhou have been All fell into a disadvantage in the battle.

Nowadays, the 800,000 forbidden troops in Canglong City have been taken away by two hussar generals, and 400,000 have been taken away, and one hundred thousand have been lost in the battle. The remaining 400,000 forbidden troops, the leaders of the Dajin court, are not planning to send a few more to the southeast. The prefecture was rebelling against the rebellion. Faced with the request of the Hussar General Li Hong and the Hussar General He Guangzong, the Dajin court could only order the local officials of the Southeastern states to conscript on the spot and participate in the battle to destroy the giant Zhang Mingqi.

The reason why Zhang Mingqi rebelled in the first place was because as the county magistrate, Zhang Mingqi’s 40,000 troops fell into the eyes of a certain important official of the thirteenth family. This important court official wanted to earn this army of more than 40,000 troops. In the pocket of his family, Zhang Mingqi was charged with a crime of fornication and gangsters. After Zhang Mingqi was prepared to convict him, he arranged for his family's children to take over Zhang Mingqi's 40,000 army.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Mingqi was forced to turn the other way, and a giant southeastern bandit was brought out. As for this important court minister, Han Renji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War.

The military chief Dou Yan Gongsheng said to the Queen Mother Zhou: "The Queen Mother is still considering everything. Now the southeast giant Zhang Mingqi is the confidant of the imperial court. Now that Liu Ji's army has actually occupied those lands in the Western Regions and the grasslands, the imperial court does not It’s better to be a good friend. The minister suggested the establishment of the Great Jin Western Region Duhu Mansion and the Great Jin Beiting Duhu Mansion. The Western Region Duhu Mansion shall govern the entire Western Region, and the Beiting Duhu Mansion shall govern the northern grassland. Liu Ji will take charge of these two. The first Protector of the Protectorate."

Queen Mother Zhou nodded and said: "Just do what Taiwei Dou said! In addition, Liu Ji was promoted as a general of conquerors. The Western Region Duhu Fu and Beiting Duhu Fu have the right to appoint Zhenyuan generals, guerrilla generals, and generals on their own. Just report to the imperial court! The people of the Eastern Fan tribe and the soldiers and civilians of the four guard houses of the Western Regions will directly let the guard houses of the Western Regions carry out the resettlement!"

At this time, the Crown Prince Zheng Kai of the Ministry of Households went out and said: "Enlighten the Queen Mother and the emperor, the minister thinks that Anxi Duhu, Jinshan Duhu, Kunling Duhu and Mengchi Duhu shall be preserved. These four can be protected. The government is placed under the jurisdiction of the Western Regions Protectorate."

Taiwei Dou Yan immediately nodded and said: "Taiwei Zheng is right, and the minister agrees!"

The Queen Mother Zhou immediately said: "Quick play!"

Next, the Queen Mother Zhou changed the topic, "Dear Aiqing, what's your opinion about the situation in the Southeastern states today?"

At this time, Xiao Su, the only Hussar General in the capital, said: "The queen mother and the emperor are enlightened. Now the anti-thief Zhang Mingqi has a lot of troops. The combined armies of the Hussar General Li Hong and Hussar General He Guangzong are not enough. The thief’s army is half, so the minister believes that generals should be sent as soon as possible to general Li Hong and He Guangzong."

The Empress Dowager Zhou said sadly: "Now that half of the 800,000 imperial troops in the capital have been sent out, the remaining 400,000 imperial troops must protect the safety of the capital. Where should the imperial court transfer troops to General Li Hong and General He Guangzong? The army failed?"

Hussar General Xiao Su immediately suggested: "The queen mother, the frontier army cannot be used. The minister thinks that it is possible to transfer all the Xiang army in some states to the southeast. Nowadays, the state herdsmen, prefects and county magistrates in all states have basically planned to build local troops. In this way, the garrison task of each region can be delegated to the local army, and the Xiang army of each state can support General Li Hong and General He Guangzong."

The Queen Mother Zhou pondered for a moment and asked Dou Yan, Taiwei of the Ministry of War, "How does Dou Taiwei think of General Xiao Su's suggestion?"

The military chief Dou Yan frowned and asked the Hussar General Xiao Su: "Today, the combat effectiveness of the Xiang army in various states has dropped sharply. The last time the Hussar General Li Hong was in Suzhou, he would not have been defeated so badly if he had not been under the influence of the Xiang army. Let the Xiang army of each state support General Li Hong and General He Guangzong, the minister is worried that he will repeat the same mistakes?"

Hussar General Xiao Su said quickly: "Taiwei Dou can rest assured that General Li Hong and General He Guangzong have learned the lessons of the defeat in Suzhou. They are fighting against the army under the anti-thief Zhang Mingqi while facing the gathered Xiang army and local army. After the reorganization, perhaps the Xiang army of each state, after going to the southeast to eliminate the anti-thief Zhang Mingqi, can be reborn, and let us get another million elites in the great promotion!"

According to the twenty-four prefectures of Da Jin, the total strength of the Xiang army registered by the imperial court exceeded 2.4 million, which was more than the imperial army and the border army combined. However, the Xiang army ran out of pay very seriously, the actual number of troops. , Far less than 2.4 million.

The Queen Mother Zhou finally said: "Dou Taiwei, then your Ministry of War should quickly study an increase plan and send more Xiang troops to General Li Hong and General He Guangzong."

Prince Dou Yan of the Ministry of War said: "The minister abides by the decree!"

After the early dynasty ended, the Emperor Liu Heng of the Great Jin followed the Queen Mother to return to the Ci'en Palace where the Empress Dowager Zhou lived. After Liu Heng entered the Ci'en Palace, he ordered the **** and the court lady to leave first, and then asked the Queen Mother, "Mother, mother, Why not make an order for Liu Ji to lead his troops to the southeast to quell the rebellion? The southeast states account for half of our imperial taxes. There is chaos there now, and our imperial lives are not easy."

The Queen Mother Zhou shook her head and said: "Now the battle between Liu Ji's army and Gao Changguo's army is about to start, and the Hu people of all ethnic groups in the grassland are also eyeing. At this time, it is impossible for Liu Ji to lead his troops to the southeastern states to quell the rebellion, and he wants Liu to fight against the rebellion. It is not so easy for Ki to put down the rebellion."

Liu Heng turned to look at the bedroom and found that the **** and the court lady had indeed gone out. He immediately lowered his voice and asked Queen Mother Zhou: "Mother, didn’t you send someone to surrender Zhang Mingqi in secret? Does that Zhang Mingqi really want to be an anti-thief all the time? ?"

When the Queen Mother heard this, her face instantly turned a little ugly. She also turned her head and looked at the bedroom, and then whispered: "This matter hasn't had time to tell the emperor about this matter. The Ai's family has sent to surrender Zhang Mingqi's people. According to the news, the Aijia suspects that they did not see Zhang Mingqi at all, and they were probably intercepted halfway."

Liu Heng suddenly showed anger, "Mother, those people must have done it. They must not want me to control the military power!"

Empress Dowager Zhou patted Liu Heng on the shoulder and said: "The emperor, stay calm and restless. The Ai family has made new arrangements. As long as Zhang Mingqi is not bent on rebellion, this time the Ai family will most likely be in the hands of the emperor. Add a million soldiers."

"Mother, what about Liu Ji?"

"Liu Ji is not in a hurry. He still needs to block the counterattack of Gao Changguo's army. We only need to show kindness to him for the time being."

On the afternoon of July 23rd, in a study room of the Dajin Department of War, Dou Yan sighed and said to the official Taiwei Yang Zhong: "The Queen Mother has made a lot of recent moves!"

Lieutenant Yang Zhong coldly snorted, "A female generation even wants to take back the power from our thirteen aristocratic family. She is simply wishful thinking and is in a hurry. The old man asked her to accompany the first emperor below! "

The military chief Dou Yan shook his head and said, "It won't happen! It won't be that far! Her careful thoughts can't be concealed from those of us. She wants to surrender Zhang Mingqi to get the military power. It's impossible to achieve!"

Yang Zhong, the official chieftain, frowned and said: "That Zhang Mingqi’s power is getting bigger and bigger. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, our businesses in the southeastern states have been greatly affected. , The southeast states must be calmed down as soon as possible."

The military chief Dou Yan stroked his beard and said: "It is not important to lose a little money. This time, just taking advantage of the rebellion in the southeast, let our thirteen families take control of some more troops."

Yang Zhong suddenly realized, "Did you arrange Xiao Suti's suggestion?"

Dou Yan said calmly: "Now in Qiongzhou and Lianzhou, our thirteen families are all here. This time we can get at least one million Xiang troops. Each family will not suffer. As for how to divide, our ten The three families have to sit together and discuss it carefully."

Yang Zhong frowned again and said, "The officers of the Xiang Army in each state have always been hereditary. Can they hand over the military power?"

Dou Yan smiled slightly and said: "When you get to the front line, some things are beyond their control."

Yang Zhong then asked, "What about Liu Ji? Did he really give him the duties of the Protector of the Western Regions and Beiting?"

"That Liu Ji is like a villain. Now he has not only captured Zhuqi, Xugu, Shiqu, Daoxu, Wengda, Qiwu, Dana, and Yuanba in the Western Regions, but also captured the Eastern Governor of Gaochang. In the ten provinces under the jurisdiction of the government, Gao Changguo still has nothing to do with Liu Ji. Maybe we will have another top family in Dajin. We are just buying a favor."

"Gao Changguo is not so easy to provoke. Now that Liu Ji has occupied so much territory in Gao Changguo, it may not be long before he will be expelled from the Western Regions."

"At least now he is still in the Western Regions. According to the old man's news, he has established more than one million troops in the Western Regions. It is not so easy for Gao Changguo to drive him out of the Western Regions."
