I am not Song Qinzong

Counterinsurgency?Not in a hurry!

Anyway, Guangnan West Road is not an economically developed place, and it doesn't matter if it is broken. It's better to manage it in one place and one place, and put the land reform into practice.

Just like Yongding County, if you kill a native official, you will be promoted from the lower county to the upper county. How can this business not be profitable?

Three hundred and seven Taiyuan

In the Sui Dynasty, Taiyuan was the third largest city in the country, second only to Chang'an and Luoyang.

The Li family originated in Taiyuan. Because Jinyang was known as the Tang Dynasty in ancient times, after Li Yuan and his son established Chang'an as their capital, they took "Tang" as the country name.

The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms with frequent wars, Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han, and Northern Han, either made their fortunes in Jinyang, or used it as the capital of the country. For a time, Taiyuan was famous all over the country, and it was said to be "Dragon City".

In the present dynasty, in the fourth year of Taiping Xingguo, Emperor Taizong Zhao Guangyi destroyed the Northern Han Dynasty, burned Jinyang City, and cited the waters of Fen and Jin as ruins in Jinyang. However, three years later, the new Taiyuan City was more than [-] years away from ancient Jinyang. The town of Tangming rose again, and in the fourth year of Jiayou's reign, Taiyuan Prefecture was established.

So far, Taiyuan alone has 15 households and a population of more than [-]. In addition to its developed economy and superior geographical location, it is actually a first-class important town in Northwest China.

After Tian Hu occupied this place, the second king, Tian Bao, led elite soldiers and strong generals to garrison here. Even if the imperial court broke the Huguan Pass, they did not remove a single soldier from Taiyuan.

Although Tian Hu's army has been perversely and violently extorting Taiyuan since it occupied Taiyuan, it has indeed forced many people away, but there are still [-] people in the city.

Therefore, this place has attracted the attention of the court.

After encountering obstacles at the foot of Lutai Mountain, Liu Fa sent a partial division to cooperate with Wang Jin and Wu Jie who came from Yanmen Pass to attack Taiyuan.

The reason why Taiyuan was taken first was to stabilize the defense of Yanmen Pass.

Because there has been no war with the Liao Kingdom for a hundred years, Yanmen Pass has been abandoned for a long time. Whether it is to rectify the army or build the pass wall, it will take time and more materials.

To mobilize personnel and materials from other places, the journey is too long, time-consuming and labor-intensive, it is best to be nearby.

The closest thing that can be provided is Taiyuan Prefecture.

In fact, Yanmen Pass has always been supported by Taiyuan Mansion.

Therefore, if you want to stick to Yanmen Pass, you must manage Taiyuan well.

Why are you in such a hurry?

Last year the Jurchens sent troops to attack Liao, but this year their troops have reached Datong, just outside Yanmen Pass.

Of course, the Khitans are still there, and the Jurchens will not attack with their heads, but they have to guard against them.

In the shame of Jingkang, the Jurchens came in two groups, and the west route took Taiyuan.

It stands to reason that Taiyuan is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and it is a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. However, the gate of Yanmen Pass has a superficial appearance and is completely vulnerable, so the Jurchens can drive straight in.

Of course Zhao Huan is confident that he can handle the Jurchens.But it is about the safety of the country and the safety of the people, how can it be ignored?

Therefore, Wang Jin gathered a large army along the border and rushed straight to Taiyuan.

Wang Jin was the chief general and Wu Jie was the deputy general, and they killed Tian Bao so much that he didn't want it.

During the battle, Tian Bao killed Suo Xian, Dang Shilong, Ling Guang, Duan Ren, Wu Neng, Xu Jin, and six generals under Tian Bao's command, and seriously injured Zhang Xiong, Chen Xuan, Fan Yuming, and Yu Deyuan. I also took a medicine arrow in my arm, and the pain was excruciating every day.

The official army attacked the city for more than half a month. Although they did not seize the city, they still killed more than [-] bandits with their sharp weapons.

Fortunately, there are still Miao Cheng, Fu Xiang, Gu Kai, Kou Chen, Guan Yan, Xiang Zhong, Xu Yue and other generals in the city, who can barely support them.

It's just that the city suffers heavy casualties and morale declines. If the central reinforcements don't come, it will fall sooner or later.

After the officers and soldiers were stopped at the foot of Lutai Mountain, Tian Hu finally remembered his brother.

Taiyuan is the largest city of the rebel army, but it is a money bag, and its importance is no less than that of Qinyuan County, the capital of the country.

In addition, Tian Hu also thought that if he couldn't resist the imperial court's attack, he would go northward from Taiyuan and go out of Yanmen Pass to join the Khitan or Jurchen.

Of course, the second idea will definitely not be realized.

Although Yanmenguan only has [-] troops, but the terrain is dangerous, and Li Yanxian personally sits at the gate, as long as the Jurchens don't send out their troops, they will be fine.

However, Tian Hu didn't know about the change of Yanmen Pass, so he sent his uncle Wu Li with [-] troops to support Taiyuan.

There are not many generals, only the heroine Qiongying and her new son-in-law Quan Yu.

The couple had locust stones in their hands, and they beat Liu Fa up and down, making no progress, which really gave Tian Hu great confidence.

Sending these two people out, Taiyuan will definitely have no worries.

In addition, for the sake of Tian Bao's health, Wu Li recommended Quan Yu's elder brother Quan Ling.

This psychic is incomprehensible in battle, but his medical skills are superb, which is rare in the world, and he just took it to treat Tian Bao.

All the way unhindered, Uncle Guo led the army into Taiyuan City smoothly.

Then, the show began.

The husband and wife Zhang Qing and Qiongying went out to fight in the city every day, and the officers and soldiers who only fought were miserable.

Pianjiang Yajiang didn't speak, he only talked about names and surnames, such as Jiuwenlong Shijin, Choujun Ma Xuanzan, Baisheng General Han Tao, etc., were all beaten to death and fled in despair.

Even Wu Jie, the deputy commander of the army, also lost his appearance and dared not fight any more.

"It's a pity that if you haven't killed the general of the army, you can't count as a meritorious service for the country." An Daoquan, whose alias is Quan Ling, sighed while perfunctory Tian Bao.

Feeling the coolness of his arms, Tian Bao smiled and said, "Even so, forcing the officers and soldiers to retreat for thirty miles is a great achievement!"

Wu Li next to him was pleased with what she heard, and said with a smile: "It's a pity that the king's injury is still unhealed, so he can't drink to celebrate."

An Daoquan said with a smile: "Although your majesty's injury has not healed, the poison has been removed, so it's okay to drink alcohol."

"Since that's the case, prepare a banquet immediately to congratulate the king!" Wu Li laughed.

"Okay, it's time to summon the generals to thank Uncle Guo!" Tian Bao laughed.

An Daoquan came, but just a dose of medicine made his arm no longer hurt, only making Tian Bao think that a god had come.

In addition, An Daoquan was indifferent to fame and fortune, never asked for credit, only made Tian Bao inexplicably grateful, and always wanted to hold a banquet to thank him.

Coupled with consecutive victories, the city is safe, Tian Bao is happy, and Jiu Chong is just about to move.

At this time, I heard that you can drink alcohol, why don't you drink freely?
