Shi Wansui passed away. When he passed away, except for his two grandchildren and three nephews, he had no other relatives around him.
The second brother Shi Wanbao is by Yang Ming's side, the third brother Shi Wanshou is by Yuwenshu's side, and his son Shi Huaiyi is in Shandong.
The last of the four famous generals in the Sui Dynasty Martial Temple passed away.
Regarding his posthumous honors, Yang Rui fought hard in the court, and finally got the posthumous title "Wu", posthumous title of Taibao, posthumous title of Doctor Guanglu, and title of Duke of Xiangguo, allowing Shi Huaiyi to be hereditary.
Shi Wansui's funeral was hosted by Honglu Temple under the leadership of Yang Xuangan, the Minister of Rites.
In the military system, countless generals went to Shi Wansui's home to express their condolences, including all the central bosses.
In China, people are very sophisticated. Just because Shi Wansui was the prince's master, his funeral would be very grand.
After Yu Zhongwen expressed his condolences, he left the Duke of Xiang's Mansion and left in the same car with General Guo Rong of You Xiaowei.
"The rebels from all walks of life in Shandong are almost wiped out under the encirclement and suppression by Zhang Xutuo and Shi Huaiyi. Your Majesty does not allow Huaiyi to come back because it is because of state affairs, don't you think?" Yu Zhongwen said.
Don't try to lie to me. Guo Rong nodded and said: "The war is important. At this time, the only thing you can do is win over love. After all, Huaiyi is the commander in chief."
Yu Zhongwen said with a smile: "At the court meeting, the King of Qin must fight for a Taipinggong to be a protector. Those who opposed it at that time may have a difficult life in the future."
Guo Rong smiled and said: "You and I have no objections. The prince will not settle accounts with us."
"But don't you think that His Majesty is actually not very happy with it?" Yu Zhongwen whispered.
You finally spoke frankly to me. Guo Rong nodded: "Due to his character, Taiping Gong was not welcomed by Emperor Gaozu, and it is the same with His Majesty. If he were not the prince's master, I am afraid that with his character, the prince would not tolerate him either. Can’t touch him.”
"It's a pity that there is no if. He is the prince's master and his guide in the military," Yu Zhongwen said: "Now the prince is in Luoyang, just resting. Although he is here to protect his son from the south of the Yangtze River, I think, I’m afraid it won’t go too well.”
Guo Rong said with a smile: "Yu Wenshu and Lai Hu'er are both here. The supply line of Tongji Canal is not broken. How could it not go smoothly?"
Yu Zhongwen stroked his beard and said, "Do you think the prince will make Jiangnan go smoothly?"
Guo Rong was stunned and said with a slightly raised corner of his mouth: "It depends on what Yu Wenshu and Lai Hu'er, two old foxes, will do. After all, King Qi is not good at military affairs. If these two people can't work hard, Jiangnan will really not be able to do anything. It's easy to say that Wei Xuan and King Qi have different counter-rebellion strategies, and I'm afraid they will be perfunctory. Jiangnan is complicated."
At this time, their convoy met Solvay's convoy head-on. After getting off the car and saying hello, the two convoys passed by each other.
In Su Wei's carriage, Pei Yun was sitting.
Pei Yun didn't want anyone to know that he was traveling with Su Wei, so he didn't show up.
"I always feel that something is wrong recently," Pei Yun said with a frown: "The military intelligence reports from Jiangnan seem to be too few and unreasonable."
Su Wei muttered: "Stop guessing. Things that are originally reasonable will become unreasonable the more you guess."
Jiangnan's report must go through Luoyang, and Yang Ming has already taken action. He will screen what can be sent and what cannot.
Yang Jian requested a memorial to execute Shen Lun and Zhou Zhongmo, but it was intercepted. Yang Ming read it and burned it.
Pei Yun smiled: "This year's tax revenue is still a big hole. Now it is all supported by Guanzhong, Bashu, Shanxi, and Jingzhou. Xiao Mian has the intention to go west to Jingzhou, and Xuan Zong went south on the order of the prince. This is to take precautions in advance." , do you always think you can guard against it?"
Su Wei smiled: "Of course I can guard against it."
"Not necessarily," Pei Yun said with a smile: "The Xiangyang Navy is not in Jingzhou, Murong Sanzang is also old, and there is no general in Jingzhou, so it may not be possible to prevent it."
The old Pei family is now deliberately making friends with Su Wei, but Pei Ju cannot come forward.
After all, it was a taboo for the emperor for the ministers and servants to work together, so only Pei Yun, a social expert, came forward.
Su Wei and Xuangan are in-laws. The Pei family doesn't want Su Wei and Xuangan to get too close, so they want to get involved.
Su Wei did not express any thoughts at all and said: "Take your time and take a look, there should be no problem."
At this time, the sound of galloping horses sounded from the rear of the convoy, and a fast horse passed by at high speed and headed straight for Lifang, where Shi Wansui's mansion was located.
Pei Yun lowered the curtain of the carriage and frowned: "It's a horse from the Ministry of War, with red and yellow flags on its back. This is urgent military information sent directly to His Majesty. Why do I have a bad feeling?"
Su Wei said to the driver driving the car: "Speed up to the Taiping Palace."
As soon as their motorcade arrived, they saw Duan Wenzhen, Minister of the Ministry of War, and a group of big shots hurriedly walking out of the door.
Su Wei stood on the carriage and asked in surprise: "What's going on?"
"Jiangxia is lost," Duan Wenzhen said with a look of great concern: "Xiao Mian's three armies, Dong Jingzhen, Shen Faxing, and Gongsun Shangzhe, totaling 70,000 people, have stationed in Jiangxia County. Su Gong, please come to the palace with me quickly. Your Majesty has summoned you. Woolen cloth."
Su Wei sighed, glanced at Shi Wansui's house, and returned to the carriage.
Jiangnan, come to protect your children and send troops.
He will definitely not just use the 20,000 garrison troops brought from Luoyang, Xu Wanche and Wan Zan's Xiaoguo Army will also come over.
Yang Jian refused, so Lai Huer directly said that the current official positions of these two people were the generals of Danyang and Liyang, who were conferred by the prince. If they did not suppress the rebellion, they would be disobeying the general's order. With the help of Yuwen Shu, Wei Xuan and others As he spoke, the Xiaoguo army was also dispatched.
After crossing the Yangtze River, Lai Huer went straight to Jurong County, while Xu Wanche and Wan Zan went to Jinling County in the southeast.
There is a rebel named Guan Chong in Jinling County. This person is very embarrassed now because he is caught between Jiangdu and Liu Yuanjin of Wu County.
However, Liu Yuanjin was named the general manager of Wuzhou by the prince, and he nominally surrendered to the court, but Guan Chong did not, mainly because his power was too small and the court looked down upon him.
Jinling County, also called Piling County, has four unified counties: Jinling, Jiangyin, Wuxi, and Yixing.
The reason why Lai Hu'er asked Xu and Wan to attack here was to force Liu Yuanjin of Wu County to stop swaying and follow the court honestly. In the past, you had Guan Chong as a buffer, but now I will remove this buffer. Come on, are you taking refuge in me and becoming your Wuzhou general manager? Or continue to be a rebel?
This is actually a very good choice. A road to clearing your name has been paved for you. The ones who attacked Jinling were two former rebels. This was made for Liu Yuanjin. As long as you surrender, the court will definitely entrust you with important tasks. , just like Xu and Wan.
Therefore, before Xu Wanche attacked Jinling County, he sent someone to contact Liu Yuanjin early and invited him to fight with him.
Without any hesitation, Liu Yuanjin personally led his troops north to attack Guan Chong with his officers and soldiers. Under such circumstances, Guan Chong gave up all thoughts of fighting and sent people to Xu Wanche's army to test for surrender.
Why test? Just to see if you will kill me after I surrender. If you kill me, then we will die.
Xu Wanche, who received the instructions from Lai Huer, directly invited Guan Chong to be his deputy general and promised that Duke Rong Guo would never pursue you for what you had done before.
In this way, Jinling County and Wu County completely surrendered to the imperial court without losing any blood.
This is the strategic policy deployed by Lai Huer after careful consideration.
The Jiangnan Canal built by Yang Guang starts from Yanling County on the other side of Jiangdu City, and then goes all the way south, passing through Qu'a County guarded by Wang Shichong, Jinling County, the capital of Jinling County, Wu County, the capital of Wu County, and then ends at Qiantang County, Yuhang County. .
There are no rebels in Yuhang County, and the prefect Yuanyou is still here. The initial plan to protect the children is to open the Jiangnan Canal and use the three coastal counties to form a semi-encirclement of the inland rebels.
In this way, General Chen Leng, the right guard who had been arranged by him at the Donglai County Naval Base in Shandong Province early, could take the navy ship south along the coastline to provide protection for the children.
This is why Lai Huer dared to let the Xiangyang navy leave, because there are naval warships. Although they cannot enter the inland river, they are more than enough to dominate the coastal areas.
The Xiangyang naval force has been mobilized in full force, sails spread, and the mighty fleet sails upstream to Jiangning County.
Guarding Danyang County is Du Fuwei's younger brother, life and death brother, and chief steward Shi Fugong'er.
This person can be regarded as the number one figure in history, but there is a big gap between him and Lai Huer.
It's almost like the fireflies' light competing with the bright moon.
After learning that Lai Hu'er was attacking Jurong, Fugong urgently asked Du Fuwei for help, and then withdrew Jurong's troops, all of them back to Jiangning County.
He knew what was important, so he didn't dare to divide his troops, fearing that Lai Hu'er would defeat them one by one. After all, Lai Hu'er's reputation was built not by bragging, but by fighting.
There are guards on land and Xiangyang navy on the water. As long as the city is destroyed, it will be death.
After receiving the news, Du Fuwei hurriedly led 80,000 troops and 6,000 naval troops to the north to rescue Jiang Ning. He also knew that if Jiang Ning was lost, the next target of the officers and soldiers would definitely be his Liyang County.
Therefore, there will be an unprecedented battle surrounding Jiang Ning.
As the general manager of the Jiangnan Road march, Yang Jian was destined to be a spectator throughout the whole process.
"I'm talking about Wei Gong, the crown prince's order is for you to attack Jiangning. You don't even fight, so you let Lai take care of your son? Are you so afraid of Lai?" Yang Jian said in the steward's house.
Wei Xuan sat upright and said, "If I go, will King Qi let me go?"
Yang Xian raised his eyebrows and said: "Why don't I let you go? You are under my control. If you win, I will be proud of it, but I have said that I will take care of the child, and you are not under my control."
"Rong Gong is familiar with water warfare, I just think that he is more suitable than me," Wei Xuandao.
"Cowardly!" Yang Jian snorted coldly: "I'm just wondering. You are also a famous general. You have been in Jiangdu for so long. What have you done? I find you are the most leisurely one?"
"The capable ones work harder, and the mediocre ones give in more," Wei Xuan said, "It's really better for me to protect the children."
"You." Yang Xian flicked his sleeves, pointed at Wei Xuan excitedly and said, "You, you, you, just stay where you can to cool off, I feel upset just looking at you."
Wei Xuan stood up and left.
I'm still upset when I see you.
