Chapter 692: Moving the Capital to Nanjing

Jiangdu Palace, Imperial Garden.

Yang Guang said to Xiao Hou worriedly, "If Luo Siye and Luo Gui refuse to hand over Dingxiang, the military power of the two towns in Shandong will be afraid that the war will begin."

The emperor who had just killed the four traitors and was in charge of the court again only realized that the Sui Dynasty was so weak that the world was in such chaos.

I didn't know anything before, but I lived in a dream. Now that I am awake, no one dares to deceive him anymore, but when the real situation in the world reports to him, he is frightened and panicked again.

There are more than a dozen anti-kings in the world who are known as having more than 100,000 people, and several of them have even been directly called emperors. However, the officials and generals from the court were unable to do anything to them.

Not to mention those bandits with a large number of people, as many as thousands or hundreds, are as numerous as cows and countless.

Now the one who seriously threatens the court is Li Mi of Henan, who defeated Wang Shichong three times and besieged Luoyang.

Dou Jiande, Wang Xuba and Lu Mingyue in Hebei are almost three-pointers in Hebei, and the official army is no longer in the best position. In many counties, the official army can only hide in some county cities and military palaces, while the rebels occupy counties and townships.

Rebels and bandits are everywhere in Hedong, Shannan, and Jiangnan.

Tuyuhun in the northwest has restored its country, while the Western Turks in the Western Regions are now becoming more powerful and repeatedly invaded the border.

Xiao Yu had previously requested the emperor to return to Beijing, which one could he return to?

Luoyang is now surrounded by Li Mi, Xingluocang was occupied by Li Mi, Li Yangcang was occupied by Dou Jiande. Now Shandong's mighty army has the possibility of rebellion, and Luoyang cannot go back at all. The canal was blocked by the rebels, and Xingyang and Hulao are still in the hands of the rebels. How can the emperor go back?

Then go to Xijing?

The Daxing of Xijing is still stable now, but Longyou is also in a mutiny and rebellion, and Tuyuhun has restored his country, not to mention that the Western Turks are still invading Hexi.

Daxing City has the same bad prospects, not to mention that after the wars everywhere, Daxing City cannot get the grain supply from Kanto.

Without food, it is impossible to lend it to Xijing by relying solely on the Guanzhong Plain.

"As long as your Majesty appoints Zhongxian, the world will surely return to peace." Empress Xiao comforted the emperor and said.

Yang Guang sighed.

I thought that if I killed Pei Shiju and others, the court would be purified and the world would be peaceful, but now I realize that things have not changed at all and it is still a mess.

I can't go back to Luoyang and cannot stay in Xijing. Even Jiang is afraid that it will not be safe.

If the Luo family really rebelled, Na Luo Cheng led his troops south, he would be afraid that he would drive him to the future.

"Empress, I want to cross the river to Danyang."

"Go to Danyang?" The queen was puzzled why the emperor had such thoughts at this time.

"There is no danger to defend in Jiangdu. Once Luo Cheng refuses to listen to the imperial edict, if he raises an army, he will be afraid that it will be difficult to stop it. I must make complete preparations. I will prepare to cross the river, go to Danyang, restore Jinling, and use Jinling as Nanjing of the Great Sui Dynasty."

Jinling has the danger of the Yangtze River, and it can also rely on the Pingfan of the Huaihe River as a buffer.

Furthermore, Jiangnan, especially the counties on the south bank of the Yangtze River, are relatively wealthy and grain-producing areas. If the situation is out of control, then you can still occupy half of the Jiangnan River. You can save it first and then counterattack Xu Tu.

"Your Majesty, has the situation reached such a point?"

"This is the worst plan. I value Pei Yunyu, Shiji, Pei Shiju, Luo Yiluo, and others. I thought they had no foundation, were not Guanlong warlords, nor were Shandong gentry, so I could control it better, but who knew that these people were even more evil."

In his heart, Yang Guang was still unwilling to compromise.

Tolerate the Luo family, that will only make things worse.

Now that the tough cuts of the vassal states may cause war, but this possibility is only one-half pairs. If Luo Cheng dares not rebel, then the court will win, which may bring hope to him to revive the Great Sui Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, I am just a woman, but I want to remind Your Majesty that you should not be too hasty in this matter. If your Majesty deals with it inappropriately, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles."

The queen reminded the emperor that although it is necessary to reduce the vassal states, he must pay attention to the means. Otherwise, if Luo Cheng is reasonable, he will become famous when he rises up.

If the court can handle it well, if Luo Cheng cannot find a legitimate reason, he will rebel, but he may not be sure that the officials, generals, soldiers and civilians of the county and county will follow him.

"The best way is to replace the four generals of the Luo family with the army of the four towns."

This is a very powerful move. You cannot treat all the four towns as enemies. If you treat them all as enemies, then they are really all enemies.

Even if you want to cut off the vassal states, you just need to cut off the four generals. Take your time and take it step by step.

Danyang County, Jiangning City.

A team of Fructus troops escorted an angel to arrive.

"The emperor's edict, Du Fuwei, the prefect of Danyang, received the edict!"

Du Fuwei, who was promoted to the prefect of Danyang for his contribution to suppressing the thieves, was wearing iron armor and invited the angel to the hall.

After the angel read the edict, he smiled and said to Du Fuwei, "Congratulations to Du Envoy Du, now I will call you Du Shuai." In the edict just read, the emperor issued an edict, which specially issued an edict to commend Du Fuwei for his contribution to quelling the rebellion and awarded him the title of Jiangnan Road Pacification Envoy.

Du Fuwei, holding the imperial edict in his hand, smiled slightly on his face.

"Sir Du, now the left has just wandered to Jiangnanxi, and is very arrogant. Your Majesty is very dissatisfied with this thief and must be eliminated quickly. Before, the Jiangnan pacifier Zhao Yuankai had no experience in fighting formations. Therefore, this time, Your Majesty specially transferred him to the court as the Minister of the Taifu Temple, and Du Shuai replaced the position of command. Your Majesty has issued an order to mobilize Shannan and Jiannan troops to Jiangnanxi to gather, and Du Shuai went to command."

Of course, according to convention, Du Fuwei was promoted to Jiangnan Pacification Envoy, so he should naturally cross the river first, go to Jiangdu to pay homage to the emperor, then go to the Ministry of War to receive the tiger talisman seal, then come back to hand over to Zhao Yuankai, and then go to Jiangnanxi to quell the rebellion.

Du Fuwei responded with a smile, and the angel was very happy to see Du Fuwei agreeing so happily.

·······

"Master, there must be a fraud in this!"

After sending the angel to the post station to rest, Kan Len said to Du Fuwei in the prefect's mansion. Long before, Luo Cheng sent Kan Len, Wang Xiongdan and Ximen Junyi, the three adopted sons, to Du Fuwei, to assist him in commanding the troops.

These three men have experienced battle formations under Luo Cheng's command for a long time, especially learned a lot of military formation tactics, so they got their help. Du Fu's power was like a tiger, suppressing bandits and suppressing rebellions in Jiangnan, and winning many battles.

"It is too abnormal to promote me to be comforting at this time. Don't I know there is something wrong with it?" Du Fuwei didn't believe such a good thing either.

After all, he was originally just the magistrate of Danyang County. He had just been promoted to prefect not long ago and took over the position left by Zhao Yuankai, who was promoted to Jiangnan Pacification Envoy.

How could I be promoted to the pacification envoy immediately now? How could I be promoted like this?
