Governor please stay

Chapter 564 Shaoguan Storm

The drastic changes in Guangzhou, the internal fighting of the Xiao clan surfaced from the water, but in the end, Chen Baxian, an outsider, took advantage of it, which made people feel a lot of emotion.

The story of the three monks without water always happens again and again.The culprit among them is none other than Xiao Yan, the self-proclaimed "Holy King" back then!

When Xiao Yan arranged for the chief executives of the southern counties, he really put some thought into it.

Isn't the imperial court unable to control Guangzhou so far away?Well, I'm going all out to mix sand!Let you check and balance each other.

The prefects of all counties, but all counties that are better, are basically controlled by members of the Xiao clan.

Of course, in order to prevent these Xiao clan members from uniting to rebel, Xiao Yan's arrangement is also very interesting. He arranges the children of different branches from far and near in neighboring counties.

Although they are both surnamed Xiao, many of their relationships go beyond the fifth server!If the in-laws are included, the relationship between them is even worse than that of people with foreign surnames.

This seemingly inconspicuous operation is now fermenting wildly in the Guangzhou incident.

Xiao Zifan, the prefect of Shixing County (Shaoguan), is a typical example.

In this turmoil, Siheung County is besieged on all sides.Surrounded by rebels.

The connection with the imperial court in the north has been cut off by Xiao Bo in Nankang County. In Guangzhou in the south, Chen Baxian has suddenly emerged and defeated the official army who came to suppress the rebellion, um, that is, the Yuwentai Department.

Logically speaking, Xiao Zifan should also surrender quickly, but why didn't he surrender?
Because he is not the clan of Xiao Liang, but the clan of Xiao Qi from the previous dynasty!From Xiao Zifan's point of view, the fight between the Xiao Clan King and Liu Yishou was nothing more than two tigers fighting outside the door, and it was none of his business!

The power of the Xiaoliang clan was emptied by Liu Yishou, Xiao Zifan didn't feel much in his heart, after all, Liu Yishou was very good at handling the clan's children, and his former clan didn't want to participate in it at all, and he didn't think it would be affected.

So when Chen Baxian sent someone to persuade him to surrender, Xiao Zifan refused!
Are you kidding me? It's too late for him to dodge this kind of thing. How could it be possible for others to participate in a few words?
However, misfortunes never come singly, Xiao Zifan is not interested in rebelling, while the powerful Hou family in Shixing County is very interested in following Xiao Gang in rebelling.

Hou Andu, the leader of the Hou family, led troops to attack Shixing County, but was defeated by Lu Xida and his younger brother Lu Guangda.

Hou An couldn't steal chickens and lose a lot of rice, so he had to take the remnants south to seek refuge with Chen Baxian, who was entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

After this battle, Xiao Zifan was scared out of his wits.This gang of local tyrants is lawless, and they don't accept control on weekdays, and they make trouble when there is trouble.

The local tyrants in Shiheung County are not just the Hou family!Now there is Hou Andu, who knows if there is another house behind?I escaped once, can I escape every time?

Xiao Zifan is not a hero, he was terrified!
Taking advantage of the window period when Yuwen Tai's troops attacked Guangzhou, and Chen Baxian was too busy to take care of himself, Xiao Zifan took two generals under his command, Lu Xida and Lu Guangda, and the three of them smeared the soles of their feet together!

Why didn't brothers Lu Xida and Lu Quanda kill Xiao Zifan and surrender to Chen Baxian?
In fact, this kind of thing is also easy to understand, because they are from Xincai, and they were born in Fufeng County, Qiaozhizhou County, rather than local tyrants in Shixing County.

Xincai (Xuanhu) is now under the control of Duguxin, the governor under the command of Liu Yishou.If he followed Chen Ba first, wouldn't he just wait for his family to be liquidated?

Not to mention that Liu Yishou wanted to clean up the overseas counties. If the Lu Xida brothers rebelled, wouldn't they pass the knife to the court to kill their relatives?

People like them who are officials in different places, especially generals, often have no choice whether to rebel or not.If you want to blame, you can only blame that you followed the wrong person and became Xiao Zifan's staff.

However, in Liang Guo's social environment, if the Lu Xida brothers from the common people's family want to succeed, they can only follow people like Xiao Zifan to make up for their shortcomings and mix their seniority and other opportunities.

Hou Andu had to follow Chen Ba first, otherwise he would not be able to protect his hometown.Local tyrants like them are unable to resist the rebels, and a little carelessness will be the disaster of extermination.

But the Lu Xida brothers are equivalent to "little officials". If they follow Chen Baxian, the family will not be able to keep them.On the contrary, if you resist desperately and make military exploits, you will easily stand out, and even if you die in battle, your family members will receive generous pensions from the court.How to choose, in fact, people with discerning eyes don't need to think at all, they can only go one way to the dark.

A group of people climbed mountains and waded to Jiankang. They were shocked to learn that Liu Yishou had returned to Shouyang, and they went all the way to Shouyang to plead guilty.

The prefect left the garrison and fled back to the center, abandoning the responsibility of guarding the land, this is a felony!Although Xiao Zifan is just a "literary lover", he is not a fool who does not understand the world.

Following the official procedure, they and their group are dead!But it's the difference between early death and late death.

Only by praying to the right God can one escape the catastrophe.

……

"Xiao Zifan, you fled with your staff and led to the fall of Shixing County. You committed a heinous crime! Now you have the face to come back and beg for mercy?"

In the study room of the Shouyang mansion, Liu Yishou looked at Xiao Zifan, Lu Xida, and Lu Guangda who were kneeling on the ground pleading guilty, and scolded them coldly.

"Back to King Wu, Shixing County is surrounded by rebels, and Yuwentai's reinforcements were defeated by Chen Baxian. I was unwilling to surrender to the rebels, so I went to Shouyang to report the letter. What is my crime?"

Lu Xida clasped his fists and looked at Liu Yishou with no regret in his tone.

"Oh? You mean you ran well, right?"

Liu Yishou questioned with a grim expression.

Xiao Zifan desperately tugged on Lu Xida's sleeve, fearing that this young and energetic general in his early twenties would be tough against Liu Yishou.

It's human nature to run away if you can't beat it.But in this case, you can’t bring it to the table and say it.How else can we say that military orders are like mountains.

"King Wu, the local Marquis Andu of Shixing County rebelled and attacked the county seat, and we defeated him. The situation in Guangzhou is hopelessly corrupt. I waited for three lives to fill in, but it was just one line in the rebel army's credit book." , and please forgive our sins, King Wu, and allow us to pay for our crimes."

Xiao Zifan kowtowed and begged.

Thinking about the children of his former clan, Xiao Qi died just after he came of age.Now I still have to humble myself to beg a rich man who is far younger than myself to give me a high hand.The pain in my heart, only I know.

"Get up."

Liu Yishou let out a long sigh, but did not help the three kneeling on the ground.

"The Zhonghua Book Company still lacks someone to review books, so you should be an editor."

Liu Yishou looked at Xiao Zifan and said.

To be honest, the three of them gave up Shiheung County, and more than half of the blame was on Yu Wentai.In the area of ​​Guangzhou, the reason why many wealthy chieftains and local officials did not join Xiao Gang and Chen Baxian before was that they were worried that the imperial army would soon come to suppress the rebellion.

If you don't send it out, it's like jumping.

If Yu Wentai had been wandering around in several counties along the coast, breaking in from time to time, making it impossible for Chen Baxian to concentrate his troops and lead his troops northward from Shaoguan, it would be a great achievement.

Now that Yuwentai suffered a disastrous defeat outside the city of Panyu, those fools saw that the imperial court's soldiers and horses would not be able to reach Guangzhou for a while. Isn't it obvious what to choose?
Fortunately, Xiao Zifan and others ran fast. If they were later, it would be difficult to escape successfully even if they wanted to.

Yuwentai's defeat forced Liu Yishou to change his plan and put the counter-rebellion in Guangzhou as the top priority.Otherwise, he didn't dare to think about what would happen in the end.

After seeing off Xiao Zifan, Liu Yishou looked at the burly Lu Xida and Lu Guangda.They are all in their early twenties, so it goes without saying that they are strong and strong.Liu Yishou knew what level Hou Andu was. To defeat Hou Andu, the two of them really had some skills.

"Are you from Xincai? Overseas Chinese Zhizhou County is now cancelled."

Liu Yishou asked with a half-smile.

"Back to the governor, the two of us are indeed from Xincai."

Lu Xida cupped his hands and said, his younger brother Lu Guangda is a dull gourd, and he hasn't said a word until now.

"I asked you to go back to your hometown to recruit Xiangyong and win an army. You will be the main general and deputy general, and then go south to Nancheng, Jiangzhou, where you will be on standby for military training. Is there any problem?"

Ok?
Lu Xida thought they were going to jail, but Liu Yishou actually mentioned this.

"Go back to King Wu, yes, that's really great!"

Rushita said excitedly.

"It's a crime and a meritorious service! If you don't fight Guangzhou, if the rebels don't kill you, I will sacrifice your heads to the flag. This time I recruit soldiers from my hometown. If you lose again and then flee, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Liu Yishou said with a cold face.

Lu Xida didn't care about the future, he hurriedly pulled his younger brother Lu Guangda, knelt down and kowtowed to Liu Yishou and said, "Thank you King Wu for your kindness, I will die after I die!"

Only then did Liu Yishou help the two of them up.

"Soldiers are expensive, so I won't keep you guys for dinner. Hurry up and take the recruitment order from Prince Wu's Mansion and go to your hometown to recruit Yongzhuang. We will go to Guangzhou this year."

"Order!"

After the two left, Liu Yishou breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuwentai's big defeat outside Panyu had a very bad impact.After this battle, Chen Baxian recruited and accepted the rebels. Except for Mrs. Xian's resolute refusal to cooperate with him, the other local tycoons all responded to Chen Baxian.

And Xiao Zifan, the prefect of Shixing County, ran away with his fierce generals, and directly gave up Shaoguan, the northern gate of Guangzhou, to the rebels.After the fall of Shaoguan, Xiao Bo in Nankang County also changed his flag.

Although Xiao Bo did not agree to take the lead, he let go of Gan County and the surrounding passages, allowing the rebels to go north to attack Luling County.If Luling County is opened up, then the rebels will go to Jiangzhou, and the weather has become, and the chaos in Liang State will be difficult to stop.

"It's unbelievable that Black Otter would make such a low-level mistake."

Before writing the case, Liu Yishou wrote a reply letter to Yu Wentai with a strange face, reassuring him not to act too hastily, as long as he can keep Jin'an County (Fuzhou).

If Chen Baxian goes northward from the coastal road, he will encounter the same problems as Yu Wentai.After being beaten down, he couldn't keep it, and was finally beaten back to Guangzhou by the imperial court.

"It seems that Xiangdong is full of energy."

Liu Yishou sighed with emotion, he originally planned to attack Xiangdong King Xiao Yi first this year.Since the situation in Guangzhou is corrupt, we can only let him go first.

……

The spring had just started, and the snow on the outskirts of Ye City hadn't completely melted yet, so Gao Huan ordered the arena to be set up not far from the city gate.

This was not Gao Huan's idea, but Gao Yang's.Years ago, Gao Yang wrote a letter to Gao Huan, proposing a concept called "Bai Bao Xian Bei".As the name suggests, one in a hundred soldiers from the Xianbei nationality was selected.

The selection method is of course not one person defeating a hundred people at the same time.Even for kindergarten children, 100 people together are quite scary.

The rules set by Gao Yang are as follows: in the first round of primary selection, whoever can stand on the stage and accept the challenge of ten people will enter the secondary selection after success.After entering the re-election, you have to defeat ten more people to finally join Babao Xianbei.

Gao Huan thinks Gao Yang's game is very interesting, and also feels that if he wants to hand over the shift smoothly, he really needs to give Gao Yang some military power.

It's only 2000 people, and there is still a scale for this.In case one day he suddenly returns to the west, the power of the Overlord Mansion can only be controlled by his own son, and will not be emptied by his subordinates.

In order to seize power, Gao Yang must at least get a group of staff and personal guards, which can be regarded as the minimum configuration.

"Brother, they don't wear clothes."

A chubby little girl pointed at the upper body sparring person in the arena, and said to Gao Yang who was watching with gusto.

"That's right, my son, it's very indecent not to wear clothes. Besides, the weather hasn't warmed up yet, so it's inappropriate to show your breasts."

Zhao Yanshen also agreed.

"Hundred Bao Xianbei, but one is worth a hundred. Since you are a warrior, why are you afraid of the cold?"

Gao Yang said disdainfully.

Baibao Xianbei wants to tear tigers and leopards alive, and he is afraid of the cold without clothes, isn't it ridiculous!
While he was talking, a soldier on the stage kicked the soldier who was fighting with him off the ring, with such force that he could feel it from a long distance away.

"Yes, this is already the tenth."

Gao Yang watched the victor making strange howls, and asked thoughtfully.

"Hui Shizi, this is already No. 11, it's time for him to come down, but he hasn't come down yet."

Zhao Yanshen said calmly.

"It's interesting, go find out what this person's name is, and let him come to Bafu to report tomorrow."

Gao Yang nodded slightly and said.

Gao Cheng likes to abuse the servants around him, and his assassination by Lan Jing is not unrelated to it.Gao Yang just wants to do the opposite, promote the humble, and use his kindness for his own use.

He just wanted to recruit a large number of young sergeants from Weihan, and Xianbei people who were not much younger than himself.Then when he took over, this group of people happened to step up to the front desk to help Gao Yang control power.

"Being brave is being brave, can you be a great leader?"

Gao Huan walked up to Gao Yang and asked with a smile.

"Father, on the battlefield, one force will be reduced to ten times. How to use soldiers is not what these warriors should think about. If they think too much, they will hesitate. What they have to do is to take a knife, kill people, and move forward!"

Gao Yang said to Gao Huan solemnly, plausible.

"Then do as you wish. But these 1000 people are selected, and as a father, they will still be able to take the school exam. When the time comes, organize them and let Duan Xiao first test how good they are."

Gao Huan waved his hand, but did not refute Gao Yang's words.After the 1000 people are organized into an army, just ask Duan Shao to take part in a "military exercise" with them.

Both sides played a round with wooden sticks, and they knew whether Gao Yang's method would work or not.

However, he could tell that Gao Yang was more of an actionist than the talkative Gao Cheng, with an aggressive spirit that wasn't afraid of breaking his head.

"Look slowly, there are still things to be busy for my father."

Gao Huan yawned and said, the intercourse has been too frequent recently, even if he is physically strong, he can't stand it.

"Father walk slowly."

Gao Yang saluted Gao Huan, his face was expressionless, and others couldn't tell what he was thinking.
