Chapter 515 Military Discussion
Feng Yong, who was far away in Yuejun, naturally didn't know that his former corner was planning to dig another corner of his own.
After he led his army to meet up with Meng Yan in Beishui, the two troops joined together and headed towards Qiongdu, the seat of Yue Jun.
Huang Chong and Zhang Ni, who had led the army into Qiongdu earlier, heard that Feng Yong had finally arrived, and hurriedly brought Gao Yuan and Eshun to greet him.
It was already March, and it was exactly one year since the last time the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty came here with his army.
This time the army will no longer stay for two months and then leave, but will completely wipe out the chaos.
The imperial court's dispatch of troops this time was truly unexpected.
Over the years, the Han people themselves have been constantly fighting each other, so how can they have time to take care of them? When they thought about it, King Gao had occupied Yuejun for more than ten years, so why couldn't they?
What they didn't expect was that due to the intrusion of a certain rogue, the Han Dynasty's finances had become more abundant in the past two years, and they could squeeze out part of the money and grain to support the army and once again enter Yuejun County, where the barbarian rebellion was the most serious in the south.
Different from the Prime Minister's army last year, this time there was also a group of unrelated people behind the army, most of whom were stewards and servants of various Jincheng families in Nanzhong.
The most eye-catching one is the one with a thick, round and long guy spraying something from its tail on the flag.
When the various barbarian leaders who returned to Gao Yuan's subordinates saw the infamous symbol, they subconsciously felt a commotion: The Ghost King had indeed come to Yue Jun as King Gao Dawang and General E said.
Due to years of chaos and chaos in Yuejun, most of the cities were in dilapidated condition. The army did not enter the city, but directly set up camps outside.
In the commander's tent of the camp, a huge map of Yuejun County was hung up, and a sand table was also placed.
Meng Yan, who was sitting in the main seat, couldn't stop the look of horror on his face and kept looking at Feng Yong, who was sitting in the second seat.
These maps clearly marked the terrain of Yuejun. If we had known that the Han people had such maps in the early years, who in the south would have dared to rebel?
Gao Yuan was most familiar with the situation in Yuejun and was the first to enter Qiongdu. At this time, he could only hear him say, "To the prefect, Changshi, these days, the other small tribes near Qiongdu are listening to ghosts... cough, listen to Feng Changshi When he personally led his troops, everyone expressed their intention to surrender."
Feng Yong nodded slightly when he heard that the tribes around Qiongdu were willing to surrender.
Lu Kai once said to himself that the Yi people feared power but not virtue. Now that the army came, they quickly expressed their surrender again. From this point of view, Lu Kai's words were indeed reasonable.
"Even the Dongqu Department of Su Qiyi sent people to surrender a few days ago, saying that they had known their mistakes and repented, and wanted to surrender to the court again. However, there has been no news from the Zhuma Department in Chan County in the north."
When Zhang Yi heard this, a look of resentment appeared on his face, and he almost stood up, but when he saw that Meng Yan and Feng Yong did not speak, he had to hold back.
“What does Feng Changshi think?”
Although Meng Yan was a prefect in name, he knew his status, so he asked Feng Yong.
Feng Yong nodded to Meng Yan, then stood up, picked up the long whip on the table, and tapped Su Qiyi, "Other tribes are easy to say, but this Dongqu tribe not only surrendered in reverse, but also this Is he the initiator of Ciyue Junyi rebellion?"
"They rebelled more than ten years ago. As soon as the Prime Minister's army arrived last year and put an end to the Gaoding Rebellion, they immediately surrendered. The Prime Minister's army had just moved south, and they began to rebel again. In less than three months, they even killed Governor Gong."
"Now that we are coming with a large army, they say they want to surrender?" Feng Yong showed a sneer on his face, "Are we being treated like monkeys? This place is less than a hundred miles away from Qiong, and the army is rushing forward, arriving at dawn and at dusk. Such capriciousness The tribe is entrenched here, I’m not worried.”
When Zhang Yi heard this, his face was filled with joy. He stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Chang Shi, I am willing to lead my army to level the Dongqu Department."
Gong Lu, the former prefect of Yue Jun, was a close friend of Zhang Ni. Feng Yong could understand his eagerness for revenge, so he comforted him and said, "General Zhang, don't be impatient. Just sit back and you will be able to fulfill your wish." hour."
When Zhang Yi heard this, a look of gratitude appeared on his face, "Thank you, Chang Shi."
Feng Yong set the tone, and Meng Yan expressed his attitude very clearly, "What Feng Changshi said is very reasonable. This Dongqu tribe is capricious and is the chief culprit of the rebellion. It is not an exaggeration for the whole clan to punish him."
On the other hand, Gao Yuan Eshun's face changed slightly when he heard Meng Yan's words. It was obvious that Feng Langjun did not intend to let go of the Dongqu Department, and that was the right thing to do.
But when Meng Yan said these words, he did not take into account that he was also from the Yi tribe in Nanzhong. He bluntly said that he wanted to kill the tribe. He was really shameless and extremely cold-blooded.
Gao Yuan secretly thought to himself, no wonder this man, as a younger brother of the Meng Huo clan, could become the governor of Yuejun and lead troops in battle. There was indeed a reason.
Now I have taken refuge with Feng Langjun, but I can only be a military commander in name only. It seems that I have shortcomings, and I still need to learn more in the future.
"The Dongqu Tribe's crime is indeed unforgivable, but its leader has already expressed his submission. If he directly exterminates his tribe without being reasonable, I'm afraid it will make the surrendered tribes fearful. If they recruit the Yi tribe in the future, they will have something to do. concern."
Huang Chongnai was a person close to Feng Yong, so he didn’t have to worry about what he said, and he was from a noble family, so he considered the issue more comprehensively, so he reminded, “In order to build trust among the Yue Junyi people in the future, we have to find a way to make a name for ourselves. "
"It doesn't matter. They have repeatedly rebelled and surrendered, which is no longer enough to establish trust in the world. They have repeatedly violated the power of the Han Dynasty, and they are not punished. It is not enough to establish prestige. Let us convince others with benevolence and righteousness and give them another chance."
"Send someone to send a message to the Dongqu tribe, asking them to hand over the murderer of Governor Gong first. Then they will be ordered to move out of the mountains and forests to the plains, change their customs, change their customs, and come under the direct jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty. , and became citizens of the counties and counties of Dahan."
As soon as Feng Yong said these words, even Meng Yan's face twitched. How can you be considered kind and convincing? How is this different from the Zhu Clan? For the leader of the Dongqu Department, if he really wanted to do this, it would be easier to just kill him.
“The ruler of the Dongqu Department is fierce and brave, but I’m afraid he is unwilling.”
"I don't want to be lucky. When the army arrives, no one in the family, old or young, will be left behind..."
Feng Yong said this and coughed, "Catch them all without leaving any trace. Isn't the horse farm we are going to open short of people? We can just let them graze for us."
Nanxiang slave management model, Feng Guiwang has experience!
The leaders all hide their cats and have an accident, and if they treat ordinary barbarians with both kindness and power, in less than two years, everyone will be obedient.
Speaking of herding, Feng Yong thought of the tribe with a very obvious name, so he asked Gao Yuan, "I once heard that the horse catching tribe in Chan County is very brave and can be regarded as a big tribe. They make a living by catching wild horses and bison." , I’m not sure if that’s true?”
The Xichang Plain in later generations, also called the Anning River Plain, is the second largest plain in Sichuan. It is actually the Anning River Valley.
Nowadays, Anning River is called Sun River.
Qiongdu, also known as Xichang in later generations, is located in the middle of the Sunshui River Valley. As long as there are enough troops to control Qiongdu, it is equivalent to controlling the Sunshui River Valley.
Whether heading north or south, you can send troops along the river valley to arrive quickly. The only thing that needs to be considered is the barbarians who appear from time to time on the mountains on both sides of the river valley and plains to harass.
Chanxian County is the northernmost point close to Sun River.
"Looking back to Changshi, it's true. Chan County is close to the mountains, and the mountains are rich in buffalo and wild horses. The horse-catching tribe is used to catching buffalo and wild horses. The tribe is extremely brave and unruly by nature. There is no news coming now. I'm afraid they don't want to be controlled by the big man. .”
Gao Dinglian replied.
“A brave person can only submit to him with force first, and then with kindness and righteousness. Once he surrenders, his loyalty will remain unswerving.”
Everyone thought that Feng Yong would kill the Dongqu tribe and the horse-catching tribe even more ruthlessly, but they didn't expect that he would say such words.
“Feng Changshi wants to recruit this unit to surrender?”
Meng Yan asked.
Feng Yong nodded, "The Horse Catching Department will capture bison and wild horses, which is very helpful to our horse farm. If we can get their help, well, I think the horse farm will expand faster."
Meng Yan suddenly realized, well, it seems that Feng Langjun’s style is still the same.
“I remember that there was a large tribe in Dingze County in the south. They also expressed their surrender?”
Feng Yong asked.
“Lang Cen, the handsome commander of Dingze County, has indeed expressed his surrender.”
Gao Yuan replied.
"Okay. In this way, we actually want to pacify the two big tribes, Dongqu tribe and Zhuma tribe, and we can generally stabilize Yuejun."
Feng Yong nodded, sat back and asked Meng Yan, "Prefect Meng, how do you think Suqi and Chan counties should be pacified?"
"Su Qi was close to Qiongdu, so it was convenient for the army to travel, so he left it to Feng Langjun's men. Chanxian County was remote, and the army sergeants led by a certain man were good at traveling on mountain roads. It happened to allow a certain person to go there, so Feng Changshi stationed in Qiongdu. How about we help you?"
Meng Yan suggested.
Feng Yong was startled, and thought to himself, I mean, you have one share of these two places, and I have one share, and everyone is equally divided, and everyone is happy. I didn’t expect that you were so ignorant that you didn’t even give me one.
After looking at the crowd, before Feng Yong could say anything, the governor Guan Suo, who had been silent all this time, coughed, "What Taishou Meng said is absolutely true. Feng Changshi is good at caring for the people and staying at the rear is the best way to give full play to his strengths." hour."
Counting this time, Feng Yong led troops twice before traveling through time.
Once there was no general under his command, and he was forced to defend the camp by the rebels.
This time, among his subordinates Zhang Yi, Jufu, Huang Chong, Eshun and others, which one is not famous in history?
I was just thinking about being a general, but my mother-in-law said this to me. I felt unwilling to give in and was about to struggle.
Wang Xun also stood up and said, "The city of Qiongdu is in ruins, and Chang Shi stayed here to rebuild the city, so as to frighten the barbarians in the future."
Very good, but was stabbed in the back by my brother again.
The prefect Meng Yan spoke, and Guan Suo and Wang Xun took the lead. Everyone then said that Feng Changshi would just sit in Qiongdu and listen to the good news.
For a time, the special skill of Qiao Yan Lingse Feng Langjun was blocked by everyone and could not be activated.
The pre-military meeting dispersed, and everyone began to organize the army to prepare.
