Chapter 140: Spy

Song Jiu was not sure about this, but Lu Yuqing had no grudges and no grudges with him and would not harm him. He immediately reiterated and said, "General Wang, I don't know much about military affairs. Or, I will go to Yizhou to go to the military camp to take a look and then give you a reply."

"Okay."

We headed north all the way to Lingquan County at dusk, and stopped to camp and rest.

Song Jiu found Lu Yuqing and asked, "Grandpa Lu, why didn't he agree?"

"If you agree, you will receive the military order."

Song Jiu shivered for a moment. Lu Yuqing said again: "It is best to have a way. Bashu was originally rich. When the soldiers arrived here, they were not happy to miss Shu, but to miss Song. But now there are gravel everywhere, and some soldiers miss home. If there is a way, you can also offer it. But you have to wait for someone to come."

"who."

"Ding Deyu."

"I heard that the imperial court appointed General Ding as the inspector of Xichuan Capital and General Kang also recruited the inspector of Dongchuan. What is your intention?"

There is no Sichuan now. There is no saying about Sichuan. Eichuan, Dongchuan and Xichuan. The broad sense of Xichuan includes Hanzhong, Dongchuan includes Kuixia. The narrow sense of East and West Sichuan is based on Yizhou. The west and northwest are Xichuan, and the east and southeast are Dongchuan. The official is collectively called Chuanxia Road. Later it was divided into Xichuan Road and Xiaxi Road. Xichuan Road is Guangyi Xichuan, and Xiaxi Road is Guangyi Dongchuan. Finally, it was divided into Xichuan Road and Yizhou Road. Xiaxi Road is divided into Yizhou Road and Lizhou Road. Xiaxi Road is Zizhou Road and Kuizhou Road, collectively called Sichuan. But that's true. In the Song Dynasty, people continued to use East and West Sichuan to call Bashu.

The main rebellious area is in the narrow sense of East and West Sichuan.

Ding Deyu is in charge of Xichuan, Kang Yanze is in charge of Dongchuan, and Cao Bin is in charge of Lu Han's rebellion in the southern part. What else is Wang Quanbin?

"Don't think about it. Now the two rivers are rebelling against the enemy. Your Majesty dares not deal with it rashly. He can only wait for the rebellion in various places to quell..." Lu Yuqing said.

"I understand." Song Jiu said.

It mainly plays a role in hindrance, not for the purpose of undermining it. But once it is calmed down, the three teams of people and horses are combined together, and Wang Quanbin will not listen to the mobilization, so do not use the order of troops from the court. The three teams of people and horses will be wiped out by the ashes.

Therefore, at this time, Wang Quanbin was still the leader.

Of course, the people of Bashu continued to live in dire straits. This is to lose small losses but to lose large ones.

“Too complicated. Too complicated.”

"It's not possible to be complicated. If you are not complicated, you need to maintain it carefully if you are cooking small fresh foods. Otherwise, like Zhuangzong of Later Tang, if you get Shu, you would have benefited from Shu, but you will have harm. It's better not to be able to do it."

Song Jiu was speechless.

"But because of your strategy, although the three generals Pan Dingyin and the magistrate Wang were suffering, their political achievements were amazing. When General Ding left, the people sent him off. In this way, General Ding would have a good impression of you. The two generals Kang Cao had a little disagreement with General Wang, and you killed more than 30 subordinates of General Wang as soon as you came. They would not be evil to you. However, General Cao's troops had to be stationed in Meizhou and Jiazhou, so that Lu Han could restrain him. Wang Keliao was originally from Sichuan, and our court looked at his talents. He allowed him to be a dental school, but he did not want to serve the court. Instead, he held refugees and made trouble, and acted in Suizhou and Hezhou. He also restrained General Kang's troops. If you want peace, please wait for General Ding to come."

"I thanked Mr. Lu for his advice, but I still wondered why I didn't send troops to my dynasty?"

"Wang Keliao is active in the mountainous areas. General Kang must first integrate Puzhou before sending troops. The matter in Yazhou is very complicated. Before the Later Shu was destroyed, the Jingnan Army was set up to guard Qionglai and a hundred feet. Cao Guangshi was transferred to Yongping as the envoy to capture Youyi in the thief of the local tyrant Zhang Zhongle and killed many subordinates of Zhang Zhongle. Our troops were sent, and Zhang Zhongle took the opportunity to mobilize many Qiang people and attack Cao's mansion. Cao Guangshi took the opportunity to get a free force and could not defend. He ran out of blood on his back and fought a bloody way with his mother. His more than 300 relatives were killed by Zhang Zhongle, and even his father's tomb was cut off. Cao Guangshi had to join General Wang because he had been in Yazhou for a long time and was very familiar with the mountains and rivers. He drew the terrain into a map and presented it to General Wang. General Wang promoted him as the commander of the rebel army. But this map was in General Wang's hands, not in General Cao's hands."

Song Jiu suddenly realized that Cao Guangshi was taken in by the Song army, so Zhang Zhongle must have joined forces with Lu Han to protect himself.

However, since the rebellion of Quanshixiong, Cao Bin, Cao Han and Liu Guangyi have repeatedly won great victory. On the contrary, Wang Quanbin's subordinates have failed repeatedly. Even the general Gao Yanhui and others have let Quanshixiong kill him. Wang Jitao, the brave general who asked Meng Chang for gold, silver and treasures to be beautiful women, guarded Pengzhou. As a result, from the chief supervisor Li Derong to his subordinates, he was very fierce, and he was shot eight times, and he forced a bloody road to escape to Yizhou alone.

If Cao Guangshi and the map are handed over to Cao Bin, and Cao Bin makes another contribution, Wang Quanbin will be ashamed. Wang Quanbin will not be able to hand over. When Cao Guangshi had a family hard to return, it was Wang Quanbin who took it in. He would definitely help Wang Quanbin. Now Cao Bin has no map or a guide with trust. The terrain of Yazhou is complicated, and Lu Han joins forces with Qiang Fan, so he dare not go deep alone, so he has to continue a stalemate.

At this point, Song Jiu knew about the entire Bashu situation at least generally, but he smiled bitterly and said, "I won't say anything else, I will only say one thing. Officials from all over the country colluded with the gentry and tampered with all the land deeds. This consequence is very serious."

"I also heard that Song Jiu, have you ever thought about something that would be like Bashu without the joining forces?"

"If you don't have poverty, you will suffer from serious inequality between the rich and the poor. When a generation of people was established, because the population died in wars, the land was not tight, and the gap between the rich and the poor was not big. Therefore, as long as you are careful, you will face great governance. The more you go back, the more difficult it will be. This is how Bashu founded. Decades later, if there is a disaster, officials will deal with it improperly, and the people have hatred, it will be more serious than the rebellion of the All-Shixiong." When Song Jiu said this, he suddenly thought that Li Shun and Wang Xiaobo shouted the slogans that were equal to the rich and the poor.

The direct meaning destroyed many of the accumulated problems left by the Song Dynasty from now on, including some greedy annexes by the gentry.

Another significance is that it cannot be distracted from the northwest, giving Li Jiqian a chance to grow, and eventually the Western Xia appeared. Without the Western Xia, would the Northern Song Dynasty perish? This would be a confusing mystery. But at least without the Western Xia, the supply required for hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in the northwest in a year was saved. With the Song Dynasty attaching importance to internal governance, the people of the Northern Song Dynasty would be richer.

"Song Jiu. What are your good plans?"

"I...Mr. Lu, don't ask. I'm not Zhang Liang, I'm so impressed. Lu, if you use me like this, I will tell Your Majesty that at least a fourth- and fifth-rank official would do it." Song Jiu protested.

"If there is a good plan, I guarantee you a fifth-rank official, at least a fifth-rank official."

"Okay, even the fourth-rank scattered official, I can't think of a good idea. But I will report to Your Majesty what I see along the way and what I think." Song Jiu refused decisively.

...

Song Jiu and his party went to Yizhou. He followed Lu Yuqing's advice and did not agree, but he also longed for the war to end soon. If there was nothing, you should go back. So he went to the military camp to see, and even ran to Guankou Village to observe the terrain of Guankou Village.

Guankouzhai is located in the northwest of Yizhou, which is Guan County and Dujiangyan City in later generations. The landform has changed, but not much. It is located just north of the main water inlet of the Dujiangyan Project Irrigation District, which is approximately the location of Dugongyan City, which he visited in later generations.

Yes, there is no need to worry about it.

The two armies confronted each other here, and Wang Quanbin's army was in the south to guard the security of Yizhou. The troops of the entire division guarded Guankou Village and the mountainous areas in the north. They extended to Jintang County in the northeast of Yizhou. That is, the entire northern gate of Yizhou was blocked by the rebels of the entire division guard.

Song Jiu was running, and Wang Quanbin was very cautious. He sent many people and even acquiesced to two hundred Sichuan cavalry to protect Song Jiu's safety. As his original intention, he also wanted to achieve a great victory and could not let Cao Bin compete. But Song Jiu also made him extremely distressed. The military actually had nothing to do with Song Jiu's trip, so he mainly looked at refugees. Therefore, he ran around and walked to Qingcheng Mountain on New Year's Day to see it. There were many beautiful scenery in Sichuan, but Song Jiu was in a bad mood and came down after walking around Qingcheng Mountain. Then he looked at the people, and could he still expect the people to say so many good things about Wang Quanbin?

Sichuan does not have the joy of the New Year, but the capital is full of festive atmosphere, but at this moment, something very bad happened.

Ma Zhizhou and the family surnamed Bi were in a state of interest.

Qingyi's mother was a concubine of the Bi family. If his family didn't sell it, Ma Zhizhou would not be forced to blackmail and seek it back from Song Li. But once this head is lowered, Hezhou will not be able to manage it. And he cannot underestimate the strong customs of the people in the Jianghuai River. That is where Zhu Yuanzhang made his fortune in the future and also the base for Xiang Yu to make his fortune, let alone the White Army that caused a sensation a few years ago.

So Ma Zhizhou used a roundabout strategy. He was the governor and had some methods to suppress the Bi family with some other gentry.

I won't redeem anyone, but it's easy to deal with you.

If it is normal, the Bi family surrenders, and the people do not fight with officials. A dignified magistrate cannot deal with all the gentry, but is it still a problem to deal with a gentry?

This is also the character of a clerk in the army. Ma Zhizhou was Shi Shouxin's original aide, which also destined Ma Zhizhou to be tough. However, the result was his imagination.

The Bi family was very embarrassed under the suppression of Ma Zhizhou. But they would rather be indomitable and then sent people to the capital, and falsely accused him of it. He said that Lu Qingyi was a spy sent by Han Xizai. Han Xizai prevented the bribery of Song Jiu, deliberately left Qingyi with Song Jiu, learned the knowledge, and then brought it back to Tang State. Qingyi went to Hezhou, and the people from the family surnamed Bi also saw him having a secret talk with people from Tang State.

The Southern Tang Dynasty nominally surrendered to Song Jiu, but in fact the two countries were very strict in defense, and they were basically executed after being caught.

It may be that the Bi family members slandered them, but they cannot be said to be not. If Qingyi learned these techniques and his mother was by his side, and had no worries, and took the opportunity to escape back to the Southern Tang Dynasty, it would be extremely unfavorable to the Song Dynasty.

The Bi family lawsuit was brought to the hands of the censor Liu Wensou. Liu Wensou did not dare to neglect and handed it over to Zhao Kuangyin.

Zhao Kuangyin hesitated for a while, and he knew that Song Jiu brought Qingyi back to the Song Dynasty, including how he met Han Xizai and what he said, and wrote all the memorials and sent them to the capital in Ezhou. At that time, Zhao Kuangyin thought it was a trivial matter and did not think deeply. This thought made him feel very uneasy.

The Southern Tang cannot underestimate it either. It has many talents, a large population and a large wealth. It doesn’t matter if the Southern Tang is alone. The Song Dynasty is surrounded by enemies, including Hunan, and the Southern Han Dynasty has never been willing to rest. If the Southern Tang obtains these technologies, it can grow rapidly with its financial resources. Once it is strong, it will not be great if it joins forces with Khitan and other countries. Moreover, the Southern Tang has a history of joining forces with Khitan. Even Song Qiqiu even came up with an idea, Gao Ba, a father and son of the Khitan Yan people, went to the Southern Tang Dynasty and went to Haozhou, the border between Zhou and Tang Dynasty.

Yin of the Southern Tang Dynasty sent people to assassinate Gao Ba and blamed the Later Zhou Dynasty. Later, the Khitan sent another envoy. Jing Hanru, the general of the Later Zhou Dynasty, heard it, and used the methods of Gusu Murong to return him to the other side. He invited Gao Master. A swordsman Tian Ying sneaked into Qingfeng Post. The Khitan envoy was about to change his clothes and was about to attend the night banquet of the ministers of the Southern Tang Dynasty when suddenly, the people from the post station came out to see that the Khitan had lost his head. Jing Hanru used some methods to blame the Southern Tang Dynasty. Since then, the two countries cut off contact and fought each other.

But after a few years, God knows whether the Khitan's resentment has continued?

Thinking of this, there was more trouble. Zhao Kuangyin issued an edict to arrest Qingyi and hand it over to the Censorate for interrogation.

However, this made another person very anxious.

Many things Lu Yuqing has not said yet, and he dares not say. In fact, the dispute between the two Zhaos has begun, including the Gao Xi incident. Zhao Pu’s counterattack has also begun, and Song Jiu must not know about it.

There are also people from Zhao Pu in the Censorate. Song Jiu did not regard himself as Zhao Kuangyi's person, but others regarded Song Jiu as Zhao Kuangyi's person, and Zhao Kuangyi himself regarded Song Jiu as his person. If this torture is torture, it is OK to create any unjust case. Then I don't know how big the matter is involved.
