Wang Xiancheng said: "Pengzhou originally belonged to Xichuan. It was ceded to Yang Sheng by Tian Lingzi three years ago, and the Weirong Army was newly established to expand its power and fight against the imperial court. Now, the rebellions of Tian Lingzi and Chen Jingxuan have been put down, and only Yang is left. Sheng, the 'remnant of the land eunuch', is still engaged in separatist rule.
In the minds of the people of Pengzhou, they still belong to Xichuan, and Wang Jian, the governor of Xichuan, is their real leader. Therefore, when the army first came, people did not go to the city to defend the city, but took refuge in the mountains and forests temporarily, in order to wait for Marshal Wang to come out of Anminbang.
However, it has been half a year since the army arrived. Instead of expecting soldiers from the people, the people were raped, raped, and robbed, just like when the Japanese invaded the village. The people's wives and children were separated, and their families were destroyed.
They originally did not recognize Yang Sheng's leadership status, so they refused to obey Yang Sheng's orders. If Marshal Wang continues to show no mercy and comfort, I'm afraid they will turn to Yang Sheng. "
Wang Zongkan was just being polite at first, or showing off as a polite corporal, and didn't take the soldier in front of him seriously. As Wang Xiancheng talked, Wang Zongkan couldn't help but look at him with admiration, and repeatedly moved the handsome chair to his side. Unknowingly, the two of them were already talking.
Wang Xiancheng continued: "Losing the support of the people is not the most serious thing. Every day, each village dispatches a team of six to seven hundred people to hunt for prisoners. They go out early in the morning and don't come back until dusk. The camp is empty. Fortunately, Yang Sheng is around. If there is no talent, if there is a think tank to give him an idea, after the "Taolu" team enters the deep mountains, first bury a thousand elite soldiers in the city, and then send out 100 bow and arrow and stone cannon troops to attack the camp, and then send out 500 engineering troops. Throw wood, soil, sand and gravel into trenches to block the roads, and then set fire to the camps... I think we will all die without a burial!"
Wang Zongkan was shocked as if he heard a bolt from the blue, "Oh! It's not impossible, so what should we do?"
Wang Xiancheng gave the solution:
First, recruit and accommodate refugees who have fled into the mountains;
Second, "hunting for captives" is strictly prohibited, and warning signs are set up seven miles away from the camp. Anyone who dares to go beyond the seven miles of the camp to chop wood or herd sheep will be beheaded;
Third, set up "recruitment camps" that can accommodate thousands of people to accommodate people who have been recruited;
Fourth, the recruitment and security work needs to be directed by one person, and it is recommended that Comrade Wang Zongkan be in charge;
Fifth, each village was ordered to hand over the abducted men, women, and children, so that the refugees could claim themselves, reunite their families, register them, and then send them to the "recruitment camp". Those who dared to hide and not report them would be beheaded;
Sixth, set up a temporary county government in the "recruitment camp", select young and strong men, go into the mountains to summon the villagers, and convey the Xichuan Army's policy and spirit of loving the people;
Seventh, encourage the resumption of production.
To sum up, it is necessary to change the attitude and regard the people of Pengzhou as the people of Xichuan instead of as the subjugated slaves of the defeated country, and strive to win the hearts and minds of the people of Pengzhou.
After the draft is completed, submit it to the headquarters.
The next day, the headquarters sent back the approval document and ordered all armies to strictly implement it.
Sure enough, three days later, people in the mountains rushed to the "recruitment camp" with their young and old in their arms. Because there were too many refugees, the "recruitment camp" had to continue to expand. Gradually, streets and markets were formed. This temporary stronghold has become a new city.
Soon, under Wang Zongkan's unified deployment, the local life order was restored, and there seemed to be no war at all. Under the guidance of the temporary county magistrate, the refugees gradually returned to their homeland, and work and production resumed in various places. "Recruiting Camp" closed its doors amidst cheers.
However, the siege of Pengzhou continued.
[Li Maozhen’s fangs]
After conquering Xingyuan Prefecture, Li Maozhen petitioned his son Li Jimi to be the acting mayor of Xingyuan (with the right to know the affairs of Xingyuan Prefecture), and then petitioned the court to issue a talisman to Gu Yanhui again.
Li Maozhen wanted to be the regional hegemon, establish a new order in the region, and flex his muscles, so he took the initiative to obtain the banner and talisman for Dongchuan Gu Yanhui (previously detained by Yang Shouliang), and recruited Dongchuan Gu Yanhui as his new younger brother.
Later, Li Maozhen proposed that the Fengxiang and Dongchuan armies join forces to kill Wang Jian of Xichuan.
When Li Maozhen ate Yang Shouliang's Shannan West Road, Fengxiang's forces officially bordered the two Sichuan forces. Fengxiang Li Maozhen was ambitious. He wanted to take advantage of the remaining power of victory on the Shannan West Road to intervene forcefully in the affairs of the two Sichuan provinces and compete with Wang Jianyi.
In the big PK between Fengxiang and Liangchuan, Dongchuan Gu Yanhui could only survive in the cracks without any initiative.
Now, with Li Maozhen's strong intervention, Gu Yanhui could only succumb and was forced to accept the proposal to jointly attack Xichuan.
Li Maozhen sent his son Li Jimi to lead troops to Zizhou, and jointly invaded Xichuan with Gu Yanhui, but was defeated by Wang Jian. Gu Yanhui turned to Wang Jian and apologized, expressing his willingness to sever relations with Li Maozhen in order to seek Wang Jian's forgiveness.
Of course I choose to forgive him. Before Pengzhou was solved, Wang Jian was not confident enough to defeat Li Maozhen.
This battle was just a tentative attack by Li Maozhen on the Liangchuan area. After tasting the power of Wang Jian in Xichuan, he stopped fighting and focused on consolidating his vested interests.
Li Maozhen went to the court to lead the Shannanxi Road Jiedushi.
Tang Zhaozong was furious in the palace of Chang'an City.
The biggest beneficiary of the annihilation of Qin Zongquan, the Cai thieves, was the watchdog Zhu Wen; the biggest beneficiary of the rebellion that deposed Li You was Li Keyong; the biggest beneficiary of the eradication of Tian Lingzi was Wang Jian; now the biggest beneficiary of the purge of Yang Fugong is Li Maozhen... …
Zhaozong's ingenious plan was to bring peace to the world, and he lost his wife and defeated his troops. Not only did it not reap the benefits, but it also prompted the vassal town to complete the initial integration, gradually condensing from a piece of loose sand into several powerful political and military groups. And their threat to the court is growing day by day.
For example, Li Keyong, "lead troops to reach the palace" became his mantra to blackmail the imperial court; another example is Li Maozhen, who was proud of his role in "defeating Yang" and dictated the government affairs. He not only ridiculed the civil and military officials, but also made rude remarks to Zhaozong.
How come I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, am so weak! The unbearable humiliation further strengthened Zhaozong's determination to reduce his vassal status.
He understood the truth that to make iron you need to be tough yourself. This was also the suggestion Kong Wei made when he first came to the throne. Political power comes from the barrel of a gun, and the army has the right to speak. There must be a strong army that obeys the emperor's orders.
From then on, Zhaozong began to expand the army and prepare for war, recruit new soldiers, and organize them into the Forbidden Army. Then he gradually regained the power of the Forbidden Army under the control of the eunuchs by suppressing the two eunuch groups of Tian and Yang.
Now, Zhaozong promoted all the commanders of the four elite troops in the Forbidden Army to Jiedushi, and gave them the title of prime minister, and they were released to the outside world. A typical "rising and descending secretly", taking back the command of the imperial army while being released outside.
Letting the prime minister and prince control the imperial army was a big move by Zhaozong.
With the gun barrel, Zhaozong's waist also became stronger. Zhaozong flatly rejected Li Maozhen's request to lead the Shannan West Road as well, and issued an edict to make Li Maozhen the military governor of Shannan West Road and the military governor of Wuding, while Prime Minister Xu Yanruo (son of former prime minister Xu Shang) served as the military governor of Fengxiang.
Don’t you want Shannan? Give it to you, but you are also a child - move away and hand over Fengxiang.
