Northern Dynasties

Chapter 524
After living in Chang'an city for a few days, when Daxingtai returned to Bafu, Li Tai also left Chang'an with his family and returned to Huazhou.

Cui Qian and his brothers also went to Huazhou together, and after Li Tai finished negotiating with the Bafu, they went to their respective posts. Of course, the premise is that this Jingzhou economic plan must be done well.

The current atmosphere in Huazhou City is not good, especially the newly established military mansions are shrouded in a haze due to the disastrous defeat in Heluo. Many soldiers are worried that Daxingtai may continue to use troops, and there is a fear of war. Emotions spread among the armies.

However, Li Tai's army mansion was an exception. How tragic the Heluo army's defeat was, it reflected how brilliant their achievements were.This time, the soldiers who followed Li Tai to the expedition not only seized a lot of spoils on the battlefield, but also got promotions after returning to Kansai, and they were very proud for a while.

These sergeants were licking blood from their knives and carrying their heads up to dawdle. Even if they understood the truth that Mu Xiu must be destroyed by Lin Feng, they rarely obeyed the doctrine of the mean. Enjoy.

Not long after Li Tai returned to the military mansion, he was told by the generals that now their Houjun Bingcheng is very famous, and cattle and sheep dare not move forward after passing through here.During this period of time, thousands of cattle and sheep have been wiped out by grilling or steaming inside and outside the city.

If you just enjoy it for yourself, it’s okay to be a bit more publicized, but the most terrible thing is that these sergeants still have a spirit of sharing.

Most of them are part of the township soldiers conscripted from all over the Kansai. It is inevitable that there will be relatives and friends from the same country who are sent to the army elsewhere. Now that they are triumphant, it is only natural to show off their gains while helping relatives and friends.

But this directly aroused the dissatisfaction in the hearts of other military sergeants. Everyone threw their lives to fight as soldiers. Why is there such a disparity in their fortunes?Of course, it is right for the old men to work hard to serve and train, and go to battle to kill the enemy. It is those mediocre and incompetent generals who are wrong!

Therefore, many sergeants simply came to the rear army's mansion and the surrounding area of ​​the camp. They wanted to join the rear army. At first, they were sporadic, but recently the momentum has gradually become violent, and teams of hundreds of people occasionally appear.

The battalion soldiers fled, and the governors and generals of the various military mansions were all overwhelmed. While restraining the troops, they came to the Houjun Military Mansion to complain and be held accountable.

If this happened only occasionally, Li Mu and the others wouldn't take it to heart. If you can't manage your own soldiers well, how dare you hold yourself accountable?Shameless!
But now this situation has become a common phenomenon, and almost every military government has defected to them. Naturally, Li Mu and others dare not treat those who come here to be held accountable, for fear of causing public anger.

Li Tai was also a little dumbfounded when he learned of this situation. He didn't expect that being too popular would cause trouble.The military management of the various armies has its own laws, and of course he can't let his subordinates take in these sergeants who have taken refuge.

If these people are defecting to him, then...then he can't accept them. Although he can afford it, the team that the boss has managed to pull up is turned around and he packs it into a part. It's always a bit unreasonable.

In addition to the outstanding record of the rear army in this battle and the favorable treatment for the soldiers, it is also because it has not been long since the reorganization of the Central Army of the Overlord’s Mansion. With a bit of powerful private songs and the loose style of state, county and township groups.

In the final analysis, the responsibility for this incident still lies with Li Bi, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army!
After discussing with his subordinates, Li Tai made such a conclusion, and then commanded Commander Shi Luteng to compile a book of accusations and accusations made by the various armies and military mansions in the past few days, and sent them to the Chinese army mansion together with the postscript: Fearing that the sergeants will be separated, if Li Bi doesn't come forward to resolve this matter as soon as possible, he will pack up and accept these soldiers!
As for Li Bi's solution, that has nothing to do with him.If Li Bi can't solve it, he doesn't mind taking over from him as the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army.

Next, Li Tai patrolled the city and the camp, and called up the soldiers who had accompanied him to the east to reprimand them. No matter how rich you are, don’t burn the buns like this. Why don’t you pay him back in front of a group of hungry wolves? , It's just looking for excitement!How can you follow me to create more brilliant achievements with a show-off look like a villain!
After being reprimanded, these soldiers finally knew to restrain themselves a little, at least remember to move the stove back to the wall of their own courtyard when eating again.

After dealing with the accumulated affairs in the military mansion, it happened that Cui Qian also finished writing the strategy of Jingzhou. After reading it and discussing with Cui Qian to revise it, Li Tai took this strategy to Taifu to ask Da Xing Taiwan, ready to make efforts to seek this ministry.

In the straight hall of the Taifu, Daxingtai Yuwentai heard the audience come to play Li Tai to see him, so he immediately led the people in.When Li Tai came to the hall to meet the ceremony, he said with a smile: "Boshan came just in time, and I want to call you to discuss the matter."

While speaking, he asked Li Tai to sit down temporarily, and then asked the officials in the hall to briefly explain to Li Tai what was being discussed at the moment.

Although Li Tai withdrew his troops and returned to Kansai, the chaos in Henan has not yet come to an end, and the responses and actions of various parties are still going on.

A few days ago Hou Jing learned from Li Tai that after the Western Wei army was defeated in Heluo, Dang even did not dare to stay in the territory any longer, but led his troops south to Yuzhou.

After all, the Western Wei Dynasty just took advantage of the fire and got his hand burned. Hou Jing was the traitor enemy that the Eastern Wei Dynasty hated deeply at the moment. Now that the troubles elsewhere have been resolved, the next step is of course to gather troops and continue to eradicate him as a second-five boy.So Hou Jing didn't dare to take advantage of the shrinking of the Western Wei Dynasty's troops to turn his back on his word, and went north to snatch the territory that was previously sold to the Western Wei Dynasty.

At the same time, Nanliang also made frequent moves.Not only that the Yangyaren tribe who had been sent to support Hou Jing had already arrived in Xuanhu and successfully joined forces with Hou Jing.The Jiankang court of the Southern Liang Dynasty formally issued an edict for the Northern Expedition at the beginning of August, and led the Northern Expedition with its clan Zhenyang Hou Xiao Yuanming and Nankang King Xiao Huili.

By the way, one more thing, when Li Tai and other armies were still stationed in the fierce battle between Heluo in June, Nanliang took Poyang King Xiao Fan as the general who conquered the North, and led the army to attack Rangcheng when Jingzhou was empty in the Western Wei Dynasty.However, because Quan Zhongzun led his troops to the south and united with the local tyrants in Jingzhou to gather a crowd to defend himself, Xiao Fan returned to Hefei after the attack failed, and his official title was changed from General Zhengbei to General Anbei.

After listening to these, Li Tai couldn't help feeling that Bodhisattva Xiao was really bored during this time, full of ambitions and ambitions to vent, and he tried his best everywhere for fear that one place would be idle.

As for the Eastern Wei Dynasty, it was relatively calm. After regaining the three cities of Heyang and ending the Heluo War, there was no major action. The main thing was to mourn for Gao Huan.

However, although the outside is lively, it has nothing to do with the hegemony of the Western Wei Dynasty that has just experienced a big defeat. No matter how ambitious Yu Wentai is, he is limited by his strength and dare not make big plans.After all, the chaos in the military affairs of the military government that Li Tai saw was just one of them. For example, in Chang'an, the behavior of the Yuan and Wei clans who were ready to move was also an undercurrent hidden danger.

Now facing the Western Wei Dynasty is still an internal problem, that is Wang Sizheng of Henan.

Hou Jingnan went to Yuzhou and joined forces with Nanliang Yangyaren's men and horses, officially declaring his refuge in Nanliang, breaking the previous agreement to join the Western Wei Dynasty.Naturally, Wang Sizheng was not polite, and used his troops to share the land that Hou Jingnan had sold, the so-called seven prefectures and twelve towns did everything they could.

Theoretically speaking, Western Wei's intervention in the Eastern Wei's civil strife is not completely fruitless. On the contrary, Wang Sizheng has become the biggest winner so far because of Wang Sizheng's courage to forge ahead. .

But in theory, the regime of the Western Wei Dynasty is the Zhengshuo of the Northern Wei Dynasty.A theory that has no strength to support and practice is just a dream come true.

Although Wang Sizheng occupies such a large territory in name, but due to his strength, the actual possession is still very limited. It is difficult to effectively cover a large area of ​​territory with just a few strongholds.

Now that the army of the hegemony of the Western Wei Dynasty has been newly defeated, it is difficult to give Wang Sizheng effective support in time.And even if it is to send reinforcements, whether Wang Sizheng is willing to accept it is still a matter of opinion.

The question currently being discussed in the hall is precisely the opinion on where Wang Sizheng should set up the town.Originally, after the other forces withdrew, Wang Sizheng had already divided Xiangcheng, but now he gathered his troops in Yingchuan, and formally wrote to the imperial court to set up his Xingtai governance office in Yingchuan.

"Boshan, you have just returned from your hometown, and you must have a deep understanding of the situation in Henan. From what you can see, is it feasible for Taiyuan to set up a memorial to govern Yingchuan?"

There was no final decision in the discussion in the hall before, when Yu Wentai saw Li Tai coming, he asked him again.
