Chapter 316: Yizhou (Part 1)
It was dawn, and there were not many people leading to Luoyang’s official road.
The war has subsided and Luoyang has returned to the court. However, it has not been time to systematically sort it out, so it is not peaceful. From time to time, some small bandits will roam around.
The purge will only be carried out after the military and political system of the Dacheng Dynasty is in place.
He was alone and had few passers-by at this time. He was generally accompanied by dozens of people to form a caravan.
Luping Town is a town on the official road of Luoyang. It has thousands of household registration. It is a must-pass place for commercial roads and is also one of the main inns.
Yang Ding, a hundred household of the Thirteenth Division, was at the Zhenkou Post Station. It was almost noon, and noon was approaching. The postmaster hesitated for a moment and mustered up the courage to ask for instructions.
When the core of the Dacheng system was established, the dragon energy law was determined to be the rule.
Simply put, except for some special units, the general principle is that if there is no jurisdiction, there will be no official position. If there are fewer people in charge, the fewer official positions will be set up, and this is actually the official position that is so popular that the dragon energy is the one that is actually abusing officials. If there are too many abuses, additional consumption will be given.
Therefore, the rank is the official, and the hundred households are the ninth rank. Even if they are not a system, they still have superior and subordinate relationships.
Yang Ding, a hundred household, could not see his impatientness and smiled: "Don't be anxious, it's okay to wait for some time, but your banquet can be prepared. If no one comes, I can sign the contract."
When the Yicheng said this, he immediately laughed and said, "Then I will do it."
He is not an official, he cannot be called a low-ranking official, but he can only be called a low-ranking official, the title of "Shehu".
As he said that, he went inside to have a banquet. After two more minutes, dust and smoke floated from the official road in the distance, and the sound of horse hooves gradually became audible. After a while, he saw that twenty riders were racing towards here.
These people are all men, only seventeen or eighteen years old, and they are no more than forty years old. They are all wearing the military uniforms of the former Dayan, carrying weapons, and the horses they ride are all war horses.
The two people in front were wearing Thirteenth Division's uniforms, and they looked like two general flags. They led the way in front and saw the town, and their speed gradually slowed down.
There were many carriages and trucks in the town, and there were bustling crowds of people. They only experienced a battle half a month ago. There were obvious traces of repair on the walls of the town, but the excitement was restored.
"Mr. Zheng, Lu Ping Town has arrived. It is only fifteen miles away from Luoyang. We will have a break at noon and we will arrive in the afternoon." The horse speed slowed down, and the Thirteenth Division Chief Banner said.
The twenty people behind were led by a man in his thirties, with a strong expression and a murderous aura all over his body. This is the majesty that has been soaked in the law and killing for many years.
This Lord Zheng is Zheng Yuansang. He looked at the town gate and said to the people behind him: "Go into the town!"
Zheng Yuansang has experienced war for a long time. Although he was anxious, he also knew that entering Luoyang requires the other party to inform and arrange it step by step. Therefore, resting in the town is a necessary buffer time. When we get here, we still have to follow the rules here.
If you are wrong on one step and let your lord down, you will be unable to apologize if you die.
Twenty people urged their mounts and walked towards the town gate. Before they could reach the town gate, patrol soldiers discovered it.
"Huo Chang, look, are they?" Someone immediately reported it. At this time, Yang Ding, a hundred households, saw it at a glance and came out.
The two generals took the horses and saluted the hundred households first and said, "Sir, this is the special envoy of Yizhou. Come and meet the emperor!"
Yang Ding, a hundred household, looked up and down, and said, "Is there a token?"
"Yes!" Seeing the person wearing official clothes asking, Zheng Yuansang took out the token and asked him to watch it.
Yang Ding, a hundred-household household, checked the tone, and said, "Welcome, please come in, please rest here for the time being. I will report the news and have a response. I will take you into the city to resettle!"
"I'm thankful for this!" Zheng Yuansang said, and took his people in. Not far from the town. It was the official post station. The postmaster greeted him early: "Hey, please come in, the weather is hot, please drink mung bean soup!"
It is indeed the mung bean soup from Jingzhen, which is cool and delicious. It is July now and I sweat if I don’t work. What’s more, I ride a horse and ride a horse. Everyone is so thirsty that their throats hurt. I can’t help but swallow it.
However, the military law was very strict, so Zheng Yuansang refused: "This lord uses it first."
Yang Ding Duanyan, a hundred household, said: "I dare not, I am the ninth rank, so I will use it first."
Zheng Yuansang was still humbly retreating, but Yang Ding, a hundred households, refused. Then he realized that this was the case and felt dark in his heart: "I heard that the order of the Dacheng Dynasty was very strict, and I don't want it to be like this."
Therefore, I didn't refuse and drank a bowl first. At this time, I was so thirsty that I drank it in one breath, but stopped serving it. Then everyone came forward to drink tea.
The postmaster again ordered: "Give the horse water and fodder."
He said again: "My sirs, you are sweating. There are locker booths and buckets in the post. Let's change it first. In such a hot day, change it and wash it, and eat it and it's time to have a meal!"
As he said that, he led people into the room and saw the doors and windows open, and the wind was passing through the courtyard, and several tables of dishes were already placed inside. Zheng Yuansang and others knew that Fengchen was full of them, so they went to wash them with cold water and came back to serve.
The official secretary personally took a large pot of wine and was waiting. At this time, a general flag came out, rode a horse, and drove quickly towards the city.
The wait was the longest, which made people anxious. Zheng Yuansang had eaten some, and in less than half an hour, he put down his chopsticks. His mind was no longer on it, so he waited patiently.
After another moment, a team of people rushed to the city. There were only about ten people, but they were all cavalrymen wearing paper armor and looked very neat.
One of the people in the middle, wearing Ming armor, asked when they arrived at the post station: "Are you messengers from Yizhou?"
Zheng Yuansang hurried out and saluted: "This general, we are coming from Yizhou to meet the emperor. I hope the general can report to us, and I am very grateful."
This will glance at it and smile: "You don't have to be polite. Your Majesty has heard of you and ordered me to call you here. Please follow me into the city. You will first place you down and then report to Your Majesty."
As he said that, he ordered them and his group to follow him into the city.
Zheng Yuansang Songzi breathed a sigh of relief and responded: "Yes!"
Luoyang, palace
The drizzle drifted in the wind, and it was very comfortable to fall. Wang Hongyi was walking in the corridor, and the group followed, and the eight followers walked slowly in the breeze and drizzle.
"The current situation in Yizhou is only one word for chaos. The Hu people captured half of Yizhou. Xu Xiaode of Yizhou has strengthened his walls and cleared the fields, collecting the people into the city, so as not to drive the Hu people to attack the city, and continue to resist..." Zhang Youzhi followed and said slowly.
"Zhang Youzhi, now Xu Xiaode is asking for surrender and asks Wang Shi again. What do you think?" Wang Hongyi stopped and asked with a cool raindrop.
In the original plan, even if Luoyang was captured and Qingzhou was captured, there would be some time to consolidate cultivation. However, at this time, all 30,000 Hu soldiers were destroyed, and even the great enemy in his previous life was dead. The changes in dragon energy were beyond recognition.
Dacheng and the Khanate had no power. In the battle of Luoyang, Dacheng represented by Wang Hongyi had the upper hand. Wang Hongyi already had the intention of accepting half of Yizhou and considering sending troops to rescue him.
It was just that the commander of Yizhou was Hu Khan, Huerbo was the young dragon who grew up, and Dahan was a strong black dragon, which was difficult to deal with.
Zhang Youzhi had to answer this carefully, thought about it, and said, "It depends on the evolution of the situation in the future. Dahan is not young now. If he suddenly hears bad news and gets sick, the situation will be different. However, I think that even if he does not take the initiative to attack, he will send troops to support Bingzhou and burn the war to the north, and then he can cultivate it in the Central Plains and the South."
The situation on the grassland used to be slight, but after the Hu people invaded the Central Plains, they had learned about it in many ways.
Huerbo, who died in the battle of Luoyang, is said to be the next Khan of the Khanate and the first heir. Such a young and promising heir suddenly died in Luoyang, so the old Khan knew whether there would be any changes?
The pain of losing a son is originally a pain that penetrates the bone marrow. This time the person who died the most was the heir. The one who feared the most when he was old was this blow. Zhang Youzhi didn't believe it would have no effect.
Wang Hongyi was confused when he heard this: "Of course it would be fine. At that time, the Hu army would be distorted. However, although one prince died in the Khanate and two adult princes may not be as we wish."
This is a possibility, and we cannot pin our hopes for victory on this matter. Wang Hongyi smiled bitterly, but did not make a decision, and said, "I have to think about this matter again. See you tomorrow by the envoy of Yizhou."
In fact, he had decided to send troops in his heart. Zhang Youzhi said it was good. The court supported Yizhou. No matter how hard it was to fight in Yizhou, it didn't matter. One more day in the Central Plains and the South could consolidate their foundation. When the system yamen in Luoyang, Yanzhou and Qingzhou were established and cleared, then the Dacheng Dynasty would have half a piece of Shu, Jing, Jiao, Yang, Yu, Xu, Gun, Qing, and Sili. It can be said that the essence of the world has been obtained and there is no reason to fail.
The only problem is that the luck accumulated by the Xinde Gun, Qing and Sili half a piece poured into Xinzhou again, causing a brief decline in the overall horizontal line.
And at this time, although the source of luck absorbed in the cauldron is large, the expenses are also large.
He looked at the top intently and saw the big tripod standing in the void, and the energy flowed in continuously. Only one-fifth of the white imperial energy had accumulated. He couldn't help but sigh.
There is another matter, Wang Hongyi ordered: "The old palace in Luoyang needs to be cleaned. I have the most important sewer, but the sewer has safety hazards. In this regard, the Ministry of Works and the Shaofu will also need to study it."
Wang Hongyi does not force the promotion of technology, but he has the obsession with sewers. In Wang Hongyi's view, whether there is a sewer is a sign of civilization.
It is said that the oldest and most magnificent on the earth is the Roman sewer, which was built by the Romans.
According to Wang Hongyi's meaning, the sewer is a kind of urban public facility, connected to a series of buildings such as toilets, domestic water, and public bathrooms. However, there are indeed safety issues, such as diving into the palace along the sewer, which requires relative safety measures.
