On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 383 Entering Xiangzhou

Chapter 383 Entering Xiangzhou
Li Jing led tens of thousands of Mingzhou soldiers and Weizhou soldiers to mutiny. They seized the arsenal and quickly armed themselves. When the five thousand Xiangzhou soldiers who stayed behind in Yecheng reacted, they could no longer stop their angry former comrades.

Because of Cui Che's offensive strategy, Li Jing had to take strict precautions against the Ming and Wei soldiers under his command, including confiscating their weapons and sending Xiangzhou soldiers to guard them. These actions aroused the anger of the soldiers of the two states.

Under the leadership of Li Jing, they quickly dispersed the Xiangzhou soldiers and took control of the north gate of Yecheng.

At the same time, in the wilderness north of the city, the decisive battle has reached its final moment.

After Wang Dangwan led the pre-effect section army to kill and disperse the right army of the Sui army, together with the Boling cavalry and the Pishi army, they surrounded the Sui army's central army.

Qin Qiong even separated Cheng Yaojin and Lu Mingyue, let the two lead the army to support the Chinese army on the battlefield, and prevented the Sui army's infantry from breaking through, while he led the remaining 5000 people to continue the Sui army's pursuit of the left army.

Let the left army of the Sui army be unable to withdraw, and break through a gap for the central army of the Sui army.

The right army of the Sui army was defeated, and the left army fought and retreated. Although they could barely maintain it, they were at an absolute disadvantage. The central army was besieged, and the [-] Sui army who went out to fight in the city was already in jeopardy. The balance of victory was undoubtedly tilted. Yan Jun.

After a destructive battle, the morale of the front army led by Wang Dangwan was high. They launched an attack from the rear, and the Sui army had no time to react, causing the rear front to gradually collapse.

Feng Xiaoci was still shouting hoarsely in the formation, hoping to lead the soldiers to break through to the south and return to Yecheng.

But the fall of Yecheng also became the last straw that overwhelmed the camel.

The Xiangzhou soldiers were worried about the safety of their families in the city, and they no longer had the will to fight, and the surrender was like a plague, which quickly spread to the remaining Weizhou soldiers in the Chinese army.

The main general Feng Xiaoci died in the rebellion.

As the right army and the central army were destroyed one after another, and Yecheng changed hands, Hou Mo Chenyi, the leader of the left army, did not dare to entangle with Qin Qiong any more.

It's just that he failed to escape from Hebei after all. When he was robbing the mountain people for food, he was killed by a hunter and passed down to Yecheng.

Of course, these are all things to follow.

In this battle, apart from Cui Che's usual tactics of attacking the enemy's morale, and using the Boling cavalry as the rear army to attack the two wings of the Sui army's central army, the main reason why the Yan army won was that they were far superior to the Sui army in strength.

Knowing that Li Jing had captured Yecheng, Cui Che immediately ordered that Qin Qiong, after a short rest, the three governors, Cheng Yaojin, Liu Heitai, and Zhou Kan, select Weizhou soldiers who are willing to cooperate, and lead [-] cavalry to attack Weizhou. state.

And the Liyang Warehouse that Cui Che was thinking of was located at the foot of Dalong Mountain in the southwest of Liyang County, Weizhou (now Jun County, Henan Province).

Seeing that the battle outside the city had come to an end, Li Jing immediately opened the north gate of Yecheng, and led the soldiers of Ming and Wei states to put down their weapons and leave the city to ask Cui Che to surrender.

Cui Che helped him up and said with a smile:
"I knew the pharmacist would not let me down."

Li Jing said in shame:
"Duke Ming promoted righteous soldiers and punished riots. Li Jing should have turned his back on the Ming, but because his relatives were all in Kansai, he could not gather righteousness with Duke Ming, and even worked as a minion for the tiger. He almost missed the important event of Duke Ming."

Cui Che said seriously:
"Pharmacist don't want to say that, I only hate that I can't bring the relatives of the pharmacist to Hebei, so as to eliminate the worries of the pharmacist.

"Today, the pharmacist came back from his own life. If he is worried about harming his relatives, he can go to Liaodong to live temporarily. He does not need to participate in the civil war to avoid the court's punishment."

Li Jing heard the words and refused:

"Today I dedicate Ye City to Duke Ming. In the eyes of the court, I have committed an unforgivable crime. If I really want to blame Li's relatives, even if I go to Liaodong and draw a clear line with Duke Ming, it will not help.

"Now that Duke Ming wants to advocate righteousness to the world, since Li has made up his mind to follow life and death, he should serve Duke Ming to death.

"If Duke Ming does not give up, Li Jing is willing to be a pawn of Duke Ming."

Cui Che was overjoyed and said with a smile:
"Even Yang Su praised the pharmacist as Wang Zuozhi's talent. If pharmacist were to act as a pawn, wouldn't the world laugh at Cui for not knowing people?"

While the two were exchanging pleasantries, the Yan army stationed in Yecheng had completely quelled the riots in the city.

Cui Che got the notification, but he was not in a hurry to enter the city, he came to the front of the soldiers of Ming and Wei states.

Mingzhou soldiers and Weizhou soldiers were disarmed again, but they did not have the previous anger, let alone fear.

They knew that Cui Che, who was also from Hebei, would not hurt themselves.

Sure enough, Cui Che faced the crowd and said in a full-fledged manner:
"Although I captured Ming and Wei states, I didn't harm your family, so you don't have to worry about it.

"Now! You can go home!"

Hearing the words, more than [-] soldiers cheered and kowtowed repeatedly to Cui Che.

Cui Che entrusted Li Jing with the task of organizing Ming and Wei Erzhou soldiers to return home.

Then he rushed to appease the soldiers in Xiangzhou and Weizhou.

He immediately released Xiangzhou's soldiers so that they could reunite with their families, and Cui Che's strict order not to disturb the people of Xiangzhou undoubtedly won the gratitude of Xiangzhou soldiers.

As for the soldiers in Weizhou, Cui Che assured them that after Qin Qiong captured Weizhou, they would be released to go home.

All the officers and soldiers of the Prime Minister and Weizhou kowtowed in gratitude.

After pacifying the captives, Cui Che was escorted by the Boling cavalry and walked into Yecheng.

Cui Che still remembers the prosperous scene he saw when he came to Yecheng for the first time when he was young, but he was set on fire by Yang Jian and burned to the ground.

The newly built Yecheng is still called Yecheng, but after all, it is not as prosperous as the former Yecheng. After all, it is the largest city in the world, and there are as many as [-] monks and nuns in the city.

Today's Yecheng still has many temples.

After Emperor Wu of Zhou destroyed Buddhism, Buddhism was hit hard. However, after Yang Jian usurped the throne, in order to win people's hearts, he ordered the relaxation of religious restrictions. Until now, Buddhism has flourished again.

Cui Che also wanted to seek alms from the Buddha, but not now.

You have to be under your own rule and the foundation is already solid before you can start to attack Buddhism and get money.

Under the heavy protection of the Boling cavalry, Cui Che was also thinking about moving his ruling center from Ji County, Youzhou, to Xiangzhou.

Correspondingly, the families of the soldiers who followed him to the south had to be moved here, otherwise, being separated from their families for a long time would definitely affect the morale of the soldiers.

It just so happens that Fang Xuanling is now sitting in Yandi, and it happens that he organizes the migration, and it is also good that the people who migrated south can participate in the spring plowing in time next spring.

It’s just that when someone comes, someone has to leave, otherwise there will be so much land allocation. Cui Che’s plan to relocate some people in southern Hebei to Yandi is also to alleviate the dilemma of Hebei, one of the Sanhe regions, with more people and less land.

Now that the climate is entering a warm period, Yandi is not as impoverished as imagined. Of course, this matter cannot be rushed, at least until Hebei is completely taken over and firmly under the rule of Hebei, it cannot be acted rashly.
