The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 767
When Lu Heng saw Fan Zhongyan's New Deal and Liu Zhang's envoy, he knew that this time he needed to return to Shouchun to discuss national policy in advance.

Originally, Lu Heng planned to keep part of the army stationed in Jiangling. After patrolling Jiangling, he went north to Xiangyang and Wancheng to reward the three armies, and finally returned to Shouchun from Jiangxia.

Most of the territory in Jingzhou was not laid down by myself, and there are a large number of civil and military personnel in Jingzhou who have taken refuge in the Song Dynasty. As the emperor of the Song Dynasty, I have to show my face and inspect it, right?
But now we can only suspend the plan, and we still have to reward the three armies, but there is no way to go in person and we can only send confidantes. It just so happens that Lu Wenlong, Yang Zaixing, and Gao Chong are going back to Du Gao's command, and Lu Wenlong is a royal general. Escorting reward supplies is also safe, but there is a small episode here.

Even if Yang Zaixing decided to confess to Lu Heng after much hesitation and kill the three vendors Gui Lan, Bian Hong, and Dai Yuan who were looking for glory, it was impossible to hide it with so many pairs of eyes watching at that time.

The reason why it was delayed until now is because this matter is really not a big deal. In addition, Jin Yiwei and Huangcheng Secretary both gave the news to Lu Heng, and the latter thought it would be to see if Yang Zaixing could confess himself.

It’s not that they don’t trust Yang Zaixing, it’s harmless if they conceal it and don’t report it, the three sellers who are begging for glory will be killed if they are killed, but Yang Zaixing can only be a general, not a handsome man!
As a commander-in-chief, clearly distinguishing rewards and punishments is just the bottom line. There are too many such things to face, such as sending troops privately to win a big victory without success.

If everyone thinks that sending troops without permission to win a battle is credit, then no one will take the command of the commander seriously, as long as they win.

Military law was unavoidable, but after Lu Heng understood the whole story, he ordered ten blows with a military stick and it was a fake beating, so he exposed the matter, but his evaluation of Yang Zaixing went up a notch.

Since Lu Heng wants to return to the court in accordance with the strategic policy of 'Three Years of Weary Cao', Jiangling must also stay in the garrison. Lu Heng needs to think about who to keep so that he can leave with peace of mind. Now Jiangling borders Yizhou and Jiangzhou, but this place is still there. Under Liu Zhang's control.

That is to say, if Liu Zhang wins it by diplomatic means, Lu Heng will let Jiangling's garrison go directly to Jiangzhou to win this important place that enters Shu. If Liu Zhang chooses to join Cao Cao or insists on not surrendering, then he will also need to send troops from Jiangling to attack.

After a period of time, Zhao Yunlei's cavalry battalion was extremely destructive in Jingnan. The rioting Wuxi barbarians were dizzy and turned to rescue a large number of Han victims. Many Wuxi barbarians fled to the mountains. After Mo Ke arrived, he finally handed over to Sha Moke's Wuxi barbarian army, and Zhao Yun also returned to Jiangling to deliver orders.

In addition, Fang Maang and Fang Qifo's sweeping of Lingling County was the same. The disaster here was not as serious as Guilin. In addition, Fang Maang and Fang Qifo did have the ability to pacify Lingling quickly, and finally it was the finishing work.

After much thought, Lu Heng decided to keep Zhao Yun as the commander-in-chief. Naturally, he also left Lei Qiying, Wen Huanzhang and Wang Zuo as military advisers, Shi Bao and Li Jilong as the two branches of the Chinese army, and at the same time Liu Ji was also left behind. , Liu Pan's army and Jiangling Wenpin garrison such a force is absolutely sufficient.

So Jiangling's legion is as follows, Jiangling's commander Zhao Yun is also the commander of the Leiqi Battalion, the lieutenants Yang Miaozhen, Ling Tong, Jiang Yi, Zhou Shao, and the counselors Wen Huanzhang and Wang Zuo.

Lieutenants Tang Bin, Cui Ye, Nie Gong, and Liu Xian of the Shibao Legion.

Li Jilong's army deputy generals Ma Quanyi, Wang Shenqi, Hao Siwen and Xuanzan.

Liu Pan, Huang Zhong, and Qin Ming were the deputy generals of the Liu Ji Army.

Wenpin, the prefect of Jiangling, was also the commander of the navy, and his lieutenants were Zhang Yun, Huo Du, and Huo Jun.

Xu Shu, the military strategist and counselor of Jingzhou, Liu He, Lou Fa, and Shen Mi were the deputy generals of Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia.

Then the Fengqi Battalion was transferred to Du Gao's command. The main force of Nanyang County could not do without cavalry.

In this way, the Song Dynasty in Jingzhou retained a total of two major legions, the Du Gao Legion of Nanyang County and the Zhao Yun Army of Jiangling County. Of course, the importance of the geographical location of Nanyang County is very large.

As for the naval force in Jingzhou, the Song Dynasty navy, if it was said to be invincible before, now has no enemies. Liu Zhang in Yizhou did not have such a navy army, and besides the four naval armies, there were also scattered other naval armies.

For example, Fangla's navy and Zhang Yun's left in Jingzhou are absolutely sufficient for transporting supplies and simple water warfare. After handing over these navy forces to Wenpin's management, Li Bao's Jinfan battalion was transferred to the Yellow River.

In the Song Dynasty, there were three sailors idle, and Lu Heng would not let these three invincible sailors idle. It was time to start the next step. First, bring all three sailors back to Yangzhou. Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, All three of Zhou Yu returned to Shouchun to discuss the next step.

In this way, the Jiangling incident can come to an end. Lu Heng led the Emperor's Central Army back to Shouchun by water. After arriving in Yangzhou, he left Shenshui Camp and Haijiao Camp on the Yangtze River. Lu Heng's Emperor's Central Army took Zhou Tai and Jiang Zhou Yu's naval force, Shenhuoying, headed north to return to Shouchun.

Lu Heng's decision once made Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin very alert. If Zhou Yu made any small moves in the water, the consequences would be disastrous, while Lu Heng arrived in Shouchun very quickly.

This triumphant return is much more grand than the last time. Last time Lu Heng came back from the north in light clothes and was eager to see his wife, but this time it was greeted by cabinet ministers and spontaneous people outside the city. It was not a formality. It is to give the necessary shock!
Because this time Lu Heng returned triumphantly, the Sun family, the Fang family and others moved back together, so it is necessary to give these former 'princes' a heart of awe, and at the same time, Qin Mi, the envoy of Yizhou, is also beside the cabinet.

As the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, it is impossible for Shouchun to have no spies of legacy forces, and he also leaked a signal to the spies of the princes of the world that the world is about to be unified.

After Lu Heng arrived in Shouchun, he was not busy discussing national policies first, but asked someone to arrange the addresses of Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Fang. It happened that the two still lived across the street from each other. It is the residential area of ​​princes and migrating gentry.

There is nothing to say about the former, including the homes of important officials such as the cabinet and the Twelve Departments, all located here, while the latter is the residence of people such as Zhao Kuangyin's Zhao family, descendants of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and Liu Qi, a descendant of Liu Biao.

Just because the Fang family surrendered to the Song Dynasty on their own initiative and the Sun family was defeated and surrendered, the distinction was very obvious. However, in the early days, Lu Heng's original intention was to assimilate them after a few generations so that these people would willingly serve the Song Dynasty, so There is not much difference in specifications.

Naturally, there were officials to arrange the Sun and Fang families, and Lu Heng brought Zhou Yu to see Lu Su who had recovered from his injury. This person was also one of Lu Heng's must-takes.

When the latter saw the emperor Lu Heng and Zhou Yu together, he knew it was time to make a choice!
