Chapter 911 Town Navy Envoy
Guangzhou.
Sanchong City, Zhongfu City, Dongyue City, Xifanfang, the three cities are lined up side by side. In fact, Fucheng is divided into three layers, inside and outside, the outer city is the neutron city, and the innermost is the Yacheng.
Lingnan Jiufu Jinglueshi Xingyuan, Guangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and Governor's Mansion are all located in Yacheng, and Nanhai County Government is located in Zicheng.
Guangzhou Prefecture has a town navy, and its military envoy Yamen is located in Zicheng.
Qin Lang, the highest official in Guangzhou, did not bring his family with him to take up the post, and he went south for a long time, and hadn't stayed in Guangzhou for a long time. Therefore, when he came back this time, he directly settled in the backyard of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in Yacheng.
Yacheng is heavily guarded, especially after experiencing the incident of the Guangming Sect before, this time when Qin Lang came back, the defense was even stricter. Zhen Haijun is Yuan Zhulin, who was transferred directly from the Forbidden Army. This person has a very rich resume. He used to belong to the Hebei Dou Jiande Group in his early years.
In the Central Plains Hulao War, Dou's 100,000 soldiers were defeated by Li Shimin. Yuan originally fled back to his hometown and abandoned his armor to return to the fields.
After Liu Heita raised his troops, the governors and general managers sent by the Tang Dynasty in Hebei were defeated. Only Tian Liuan, the general manager of Weizhou, guarded Weizhou as stable as a rock. In order to be able to win Weizhou, Liu Heita sent Yuan Junzhu to infiltrate Weizhou to join the army.
This Tian Liu'an is also a fierce general of the Qin Palace. He was an officer of the Sui army in the early years, under Zhang Xutuo's command, and under Qin Qiong's subordinates. Later, he joined Qin Qiong in Wagang, and then returned to Wang Shichong. Zheng Guitang was still transferred to King Qin along with Qin Qiong, fighting as fiercely as Qin Qiong.
At that time, Tian Liuan was awarded the position of governor and governor of Weizhou after the Great War in the Central Plains. Other places were full of panic and suspicion. He also said that if someone wants to abandon the Tang Dynasty and become a thief, just cut off his head and go.
Later, he found out that Yuan Zhulin was the general of Liu Heita's department lurking beside him. Not only did he not kill him, but he analyzed his interests straight to the point. He even handed over the city gate keys to him for safekeeping. To Ce reversed.
Later Liu Heita led the troops to come, and Tian Liu'an also asked Yuan Zhulin to trick Liu into entering the city. As a result, they ambushed and defeated Liu Heita's army. Liu had to flee in embarrassment. Meng Zhu, the governor of Shenzhou under him, was captured, and 6,000 soldiers were captured and surrendered to the Tang army.
Afterwards, Liu Heita lingered under the Weizhou city for more than a month, but he still didn't get any benefits. Instead, he wasted precious time, which also paved the way for his subsequent defeat.
Yuan Zhulin also made atonement for his crimes. Later, Li Shimin went to Hebei to challenge Liu Heita, and Yuan Zhulin was recommended by Tian Liu'an, so he entered the Qin Palace. These years, he has been in command of the imperial army and has been steadily promoted.
This time Guangzhou set up a township navy, Li Shimin appointed Yuan Zhulin's general, with the title of Zuowei Zhonglang, as the township envoy to garrison Guangzhou.
Yuan Zhulin came to Guangzhou after the Pingman War. This time Qin Lang came back to meet Shangguan for the first time, but the two are not strangers, because Yuan Zhulin is from Qizhou, and Qin Qiong is a fellow villager. Furthermore, it was Tian Liu'an who recommended it to Li Shimin, and it was Qin Qiong who helped to say good things at the beginning, and Tian Liu'an and Qin Qiong were old comrades-in-arms for many years.
Therefore, Yuan Zhulin, who was originally from Hebei, worshiped Qin Qiong after entering the Tang court, and belonged to the Wagang faction in the Tang army.
During the Zhenguan Dynasty, the Wagang Sect belonged to the core of the Qin Palace, a military upstart group with a strong influence.
Yuan Junzhu often visited the Qin family. Although Qin Lang was young, he was also an evildoer in the Zhenguan Dynasty. He was valued by the generals of the Wagang family, so the two were already familiar with each other. Li Shimin asked Yuan Junzhu to come Being the military envoy in Guangzhou is not necessarily without considerations. After the chaos in Lingnan, there is a need for great governance, and Li Shimin did not intend to make it more complicated at this time.
Yuanzhulin was also a battle for the rest of his life. From the end of the Sui Dynasty to the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, from the separatist regime to the unification of the world, and then to the counterattack against the Turks and Tuyuhun, most of them fought, and they were still in Chang'an for the emperor. Leading the forbidden army, the ability to lead troops is very good.
As soon as they arrived in Guangzhou, Zhen Haijun was quickly erected. The new military uniforms for the drill were subdued, but full of tiger wolf spirit, howling.
Before Qin Lang came back, both Governor General Shi Feng An and Sima Chen Longshu were summoned to the north by the emperor. These two were originally powerful representatives of the eastern Lingnan area at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and they used to belong to one side of the separatist regime.
If you add Yang Shilue, who follows the tide in the east, Deng Wenjin and Gao Facheng around Guangzhou will also be transferred away by an edict.
Guangzhou has the final say on this Yuan Jun who leads thousands of towns.
But as soon as Qin Lang came back, Yuan Zhulin immediately handed over the military and political power in Guangzhou to Qin Lang.
From the General Manager’s Mansion to the Metropolitan Government’s Mansion, then to the Metropolitan Governor’s Mansion, and now to the current Lingnan Nine Prefectures Economic and Strategic Office, Guangzhou’s status is constantly improving, and its position as the core of Lingnan has been stabilized again and again.
Before, the prince was still in charge of the positions of general manager and governor, but now Qin Lang is in charge of the nine prefectures in Lingnan, governor and governor, because Lingnan is in an era of great change.
"Is Guangdong still stable when I'm not around?"
The backyard of the government office is very grand. Although none of the princes have been here, the specifications of the mansion are still very high. There are gardens and pavilions, as well as many rockeries, fishing ponds, and lotus ponds.
Knowing that Qin Lang didn't bring any family members with him, Yuan Zhulin thoughtfully prepared servants in the backyard for Qin Lang in advance. They were all very reliable, trustworthy and quick-witted people who had passed through multiple audits.
He even bought several young and beautiful maidservants for Qin Lang.
"Sanlang's plan to move the tiger away from the mountain is very good. Feng An, Chen Longshu, Yang Shilue, and Gao Facheng were all representatives of the powerful in the eastern part of Lingnan, and they are extremely powerful in various places. Now they have been transferred away, bringing thousands of families with them. The soldiers went, and Guangdong became quiet all of a sudden.”
The great powers in the eastern part of Lingnan are dominated by the four major families of Feng Xi, Chen Yang, and they are all big families that have lived in Lingnan for one or two hundred years.
Since Zhenguan, the imperial court's reform of Lingnan has entered the deep mountainous area, cutting off prefectures and merging counties, abolishing the southern election system, dismissing private soldiers, reorganizing households and reorganizing the people, etc., step by step in taking power , At the same time suppress these Lingnan tyrants and powerful local kings.
During this period, there were also several Lingnan rebellions. For example, Ning Changzhen, Feng Xuan, Tan Dian and others raised troops several times, but they were finally put down, and it was Feng An, Chen Longshu and others.
There are actually a lot of content in it, which is very interesting, and more of it is a test of the court. However, as the Tang Dynasty became stronger and stronger, the local kings in Lingnan could only continue to compromise.
Before when Qin Lang Pingju Dingman attacked Zuoxixi, many riots broke out in the Guangdong and Guangxi mountainous areas, but they didn't make any big troubles.
The reason for not making a big fuss is that someone with a heart secretly fanned the flames, but they just wanted to test the attitude of the court, or make a fuss to make some noise. They can jump up and make a fuss with just a little provocation, and these people are also smart.
The key is the New Deal in Lingnan, which is not as terrible as some people secretly instigated. After the establishment of the Qimin household, the taxes and labor are not heavy. It was transferred to the court, and it was even lower.
Another one is the great development of Lingnan today. Mining or road construction in various places has brought a lot of opportunities. Many barbarians got on the government's car and enjoyed many bonus benefits, so they are not willing to make trouble all day long.
The turmoil in Juding and Yongzhou was quelled extremely quickly, which made the little fights come to an end very quickly.
It completely became a farce.
Feng An and others not long after returning from the capital, were conscripted to go north again, and brought many children and family members and private soldiers with them.
"How is the Zhenhai drill going?"
Yuan Zhulin said very conceitedly, "Although the training time is not long, it has already achieved initial results. The officers are all brought by me from Chang'an, and half of them are disciples of the emperor's guards from the Saint Habayashi Palace."
Qin Lang was very satisfied after hearing this, "Guangzhou has the Zhen Navy on the land, and the Nanyang Navy on the sea. With your dragon and tiger armies, Guangzhou will be safe!"
Now that Feng An and other earth kings are not here, and Feng Xuan, Feng Baoche and other old guys are all dead, taking advantage of the new victory of Pingman, Qin Lang feels that he should do something and take the opportunity to add fire.
"General Yuan, I plan to invite saints to merge Gangzhou, Xinzhou, and Duanzhou to the west of Guangzhou into Guangzhou."
The map of Lingnan quickly appeared in Yuan Zhulin's mind. Qin Lang made a big move. Gangzhou was originally the territory of Deng Wenjin's family. Deng Wenjin even occupied Guangzhou at the end of the Sui Dynasty. As for Xinzhou, it was originally the territory of Chen Longshu's family, and Shizhou, Luozhou, etc. in Xinzhou were once the land of Chen's family.
Qin Lang wanted to take advantage of the fact that the Deng family and the Chen family were not in the same situation as before, and Deng Wenjin and Chen Longshu brought their children and family soldiers to the north again. This was to simply seize their territory.
Guangzhou is already big enough, with the sea in the south and Wuling in the north. Now that Qin Lang wants to include the three states in the west, Guangzhou will be even bigger, even accounting for one-third of the Lingnan East Road.
"Sanlang's intention is to seize the opportunity to seize the territory of the Deng family and the Chen family?"
Qin Lang smiled, "More than that, who originally owned Duanzhou?"
"Gao Facheng?"
"Exactly, the Gao family has been managing Duanzhou and its northern regions for several generations." Qin Lang didn't hide his intentions either. In the time of Wude, Lingnan was newly attached. In order to appease these local tyrants in Lingnan, the imperial court established a More than 80 Zhengzhous, large and small, and countless Jimizhous have given each family a large number of chief executives, governors, and other positions, and they have recruited and recommended all levels of official positions in each state, which is called Nanxuan.
