Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 181 Dividing Lin Yi
After Wang Zhen'e finished cleaning the battlefield, he led his troops to Ou Licheng.

The guard left by Shen Tianzi in Ou Licheng saw someone approaching from the north, and immediately sent someone to verify his identity. After hearing that it was Wang Zhen'e, he was also relieved.

"General Wang, General Shen has gone to the capital of Linyi."

The guard tactfully arranged wine and meat to entertain Shen Tianzi's subordinates, and advised Wang Zhen'e to lead his troops to rest in Licheng District for one night before marching.

"Alright."

Rest is fake, procrastination is real.

Since there is no news from Shen Tianzi, it means that the war is going well. At this time, Shen Tianzi may be evacuating Linyi's treasury. As one of his own, the guard will definitely not let Wang Zhen'e go to disturb him.

"It's really... what kind of general leads what kind of soldiers."

After Wang Zhen'e complained a few words, he stopped shouting.

But I have already started thinking about how to grab a bite of meat from Shen Tianzi...

It was not until the next day that Wang Zhen'e and Shen Tianzi reconciled.

When Shen Tianzi saw Wang Zhen'e, he became extremely excited: "What? A few elephants dragged you back, and you still come to ask me for help?"

Wang Zhen'e didn't talk nonsense to Shen Tianzi when he saw Shen Tianzi who was a villain.

"Where is King Linyi?"

Mentioning this, Shen Tianzi's smile froze instantly.

"You won't let him go, will you?"

Wang Zhen'e guessed right.

After capturing the Linyi Palace last night, although many high-ranking Linyi officials were captured, the most important king of Linyi was missing. It is said that he took the queen and fled to the sea by boat.

In the vast sea, to catch a person is to find a needle in a haystack.

"What a waste."

When Shen Tianzi heard Wang Zhen'e's evaluation of him, he suddenly went crazy: "I took down the capital of Linyi! And the people around were all in the city last night! Let you come and try?"

Wang Zhen'e said flatly: "You might as well not fight."

"what?!"

"Have you forgotten what the court's strategy is this time?"

One sentence choked Shen Tianzi again.

"It's not difficult to attack Linyi, but if the opponent regains Linyi as soon as we leave the back foot, and even becomes more united, it will be difficult."

"That's exactly what the imperial court worries about."

"It's not difficult to fight Linyi, the important thing is to guard Linyi."

"You're comfortable fighting now, broke the capital of Linyi, and let the opponent's king flee. But what should we do next? Could it be that our army has been stationed here?"

"Do you know how much manpower and material resources are spent stationing here? Not to mention that if you want to establish a county here, you have to repair roads, select officials, and even move people from Jiaozhou and Guangzhou to enrich Linyi..."

Shen Tianzi gradually lowered his head after being reprimanded by Wang Zhen'e.

But soon, he realized that he couldn't bow his head in front of Wang Zhen'e.

"Hmph! I'll take care of any expenses! It will never affect the cause of the Northern Expedition!"

At this time, Shen Tianzi was determined to deal with the mess in Linyi before returning north.

Unexpectedly, the corners of Wang Zhen'e's mouth twitched undetectably after hearing this.

Shen Tianzi has been tricked again!
Fan Diwen can't be found now, but Shen Tianzi has captured his other brothers.

They are younger brother Fan Dikai, Na Neng and Fan Huda's only daughter Jiaolong Wang Zhenzhi.

Under the arrangement of Wang Zhen'e, the Song army placed Fan Dikai and Na Neng in Linyi Guodu and Licheng, respectively.

After that, under the guise of Fan Dizhen, the former king of Linyi, he reprimanded Fan Diwen and Zang Yongmou for usurping the throne, expressing the hope that the throne can be returned to Fan Yunyun...

He even beheaded Zang Yong in public, ending the life of the prime minister.

At this moment, a group of people approached Wang Zhen'e and Shen Tianzi.

"Meet the respected General Song!"

This group of people turned out to be loyal to Fan Dizhen, the Zen king of Linyi.

Fan Dizhen gave up the throne to his nephew, and his nephew's throne was taken away by Fan Diwen. For Fan Dizhen's diehard loyalists, this is indeed similar to treason.

They also brought a piece of news that cheered Wang Zhen'e up.

Fan Dizhen actually still has heirs staying in Linyi.

In terms of legitimacy, Fan Dizhen's son is a true heir and grandson, and making him king is more convincing than others.

But Wang Zhen'e is not a fool, he knows that Lin Yiguo must be split, otherwise their battle will be in vain.

After thinking about it, he asked Du Huidu to discuss it again, and finally made a decision.

"Canonize Fan Dizhen's son as Linyi King."

"By the way, Na Neng can be conferred as General Zhennan, Garrison Licheng..."

Fan Dizhen's son was accompanied by his good uncle Fan Dikai, and to the north was General Zhennan officially conferred by Liu Song, and Fan Diwen floating in the sea.

A small Lin Yiguo was suddenly dismantled into four forces. In the future, Lin Yiguo would not have the conditions to settle down.

After the division was completed, Wang Zhen'e wrote a document and submitted it to the imperial court quickly, waiting for the approval there, while he himself took people to move the Linyi treasury.

"Wang! What are you doing?"

When Shen Tianzi knew that Wang Zhen'e had solved Lin Yi's matter so easily, he was so angry that he was about to vomit blood.

What stationed troops, what emigration...

It's all bullshit!

Without blushing, Wang Zhen'e asked his recruits to carry the treasury: "This is what General Shen himself said, and you will pay for the stabilization of Linyi."

"Does the reward of these soldiers count? Does the reconstruction of Linyi Kingdom count?"

"and--"

Wang Zhen'e's smile was particularly bright: "Didn't you say that my soldiers are suitable for logistics? Actually, I also think they are quite suitable!"

Shen Tianzi's heart was bleeding.

He promised to share Linyi treasury equally with his soldiers before, but in fact, only half of the wealth fell into Shen Tianzi's hands, and now Wang Zhen'e has removed more than half of it.

"The surname is Wang! You wait for me to read your copy."

"up to you."

In the next few days, besides transporting the gold in Linyi, Wang Zhen'e was looking for the "Zaohe" that Liu Yizhen called. This thing is very common in Linyi. Perfectly complete the task given by Liu Yizhen.

When Jiankang received Wang Zhen'e's memorial, it had been half a month since Wang Zhen'e and Shen Tianzi broke through Linyi.

When Shangshu Sheng received the memorial, he immediately reported the news to Shangshu Pushe Xu Xianzhi.

At the same time, Xie Hui and Liu Yizhen also knew the result, and their excitement was beyond words.

"Wang Zhen'e is indeed a good general, he defeated Lin Yi in just three days!"

"General Shen is also mighty, he was the one who broke the city twice."

"And Du Huidu..."

The imperial court was extremely satisfied with the result of this battle in Linyi. After all, this battle would be of immeasurable benefit to the future Northern Expedition.

Immediately, Wang Zhen'e was granted the title of Marquis of Linli County, and Shen Tianzi was given the title of Marquis of Gongliu Township, so that both of them could be granted titles.

Du Huidu was promoted from the Hou of Longbian County to the Duke of Longbian County, and the number of food towns increased to two thousand, becoming the first among the officials in the frontier to be promoted to the county Duke.

To Yanzhi and the rest of the military officers were also rewarded for their achievements in this battle, enjoying the bonus of Liu Song's first victory in a foreign war since the founding of the country.
