"If I don't bother you two masters, why don't you ask Fan Juncheng to go there in person and let the bandits know that I am wise..."
When he said this, Li Po couldn't help but feel happy. He thought that since he started the army, he had always regarded himself as an official and a soldier. He had actually done a lot of things to suppress bandits, and he had also beheaded many bandit leaders.
He didn't know whether he was a virtuous person or not, but when the heads of those bandit leaders fell to the ground, they must have been bitter. He didn't want to become the King of Han, but he could try the method of appeasing the bandit leaders here in Shangdang. It was also very funny.
.
In fact, it was due to inertia. When he first raised troops in Yunnei, he saw the world was in chaos. In addition to understanding the difficulties of the rebels, he also hated the bandit leaders who successively became kings and hegemons.
At that time, in his eyes, there was no difference between Li Yuan, Wang Shichong, Li Mi, Dou Jiande and others. They all left Beibianer behind and only wanted to compete for supremacy.
Therefore, for a long period of time, the rebel leaders who fell into his hands were burning, killing and looting everywhere. The bandit leaders who had no idea what they were doing did not end well.
Of course, he has always maintained the aura of an official and military officer, and he has received more and more rewards for flying the flag of the sun, moon and stars, especially in the Jin region, he has established a very solid credibility. This kind of credibility is the gradual reduction of banditry everywhere.
manifestation.
The two counties of Shangdang and Changping are exceptions. The people here seem to be still immersed in the pain caused by the three expeditions to Liaodong, unable to extricate themselves, and not paying much attention to the changes in the outside world.
Therefore, His Highness the King of Han, who was parading the Supreme Party, was about to stage a drama of appeasing the fugitives and gathering heroes. This lag made even Li Po himself feel like he was joking.
Fan Wenjin was not thin-skinned. Seeing His Highness the King of Han smile so "meaningfully", he was just a little embarrassed but not under much pressure. In fact, in his opinion, Shangdang and Changping have been in a situation where officials and bandits are one family since ancient times.
No one can change it, so it's not surprising.
The reason why he came up with such an idea was because both Zhang Lun and Pei Shiqing were outsiders. They had just arrived here not long ago, and they didn't know much about the disadvantages of it. And since he, a Changping native, was with the King of Han, he could only
It was up to him to take the lead.
Obviously, there is more than one person standing behind him, which is not a bad thing for him. He is willing to show favor to everyone, and at the same time, he can claim credit in front of the King of Han. Why not get the best of both worlds?
Of course, the fundamental reason is that everyone feels that if we delay it any longer, we are afraid that everyone will be hurt.
In other words, many people were afraid, and it happened that the King of Han was visiting here to show his loyalty and offer some merit, so that everyone would feel more at ease under the rule of the King of Han in the future.
And things in the world are changing so fast. A few days ago, it was still Li Yuan, and these days, it has been Li Ding'an. Who knows what will happen in the future, let it pass...
So Fan Wen went into the mountains to appease the bandits, and Li Po also began to walk around Shangdang County.
Speaking of which, Shangdang has a rich history. For example, Tunliu was once the capital of the Jin Dynasty and still has many relics left, while Changzi County was once the capital of the Western Yan Dynasty and was the hometown of Murong Yong.
Li Po felt very puzzled, what were these people doing in the Shangdang establishment? It was probably a sign of lack of strength. Who knows, anyway, the role played by the Shangdang in the wars at the end of the Jin Dynasty was not big or small, and it happened every time.
A figure emerged.
Huguan is a must-see place, but the guards here have been replaced by Zhang Lun's subordinates, as is Changping Pass in the south.
Fan Wenjin walked in, and Changsun Jingde, a Shangdang resident, followed Li Po and told many Shangdang stories. This vague sense of pride was actually very similar to that of the previous Xiangyuan officials.
Li Po can also understand that the soil and water support the people. Of course, if he regards this place as his own territory and manipulates it wantonly, that is another matter.
While traveling around the mountains and rivers, Li Po's understanding of Shangdang improved a lot, but his trip to Shangdang gradually came to an end.
Within a few days, Fan Wenjin and several thieves returned to the county town. As expected, the mission was successfully completed.
The two leading Shangdang men, with a reckless aura, bowed down before Li Po, leaving both Pei Shiqing and Zhang Lun helpless.
This is a drama directed and performed by the people of Shangdang and Changping. No matter how talented you are, you can only stare blankly. The dragon crossing the river and the local snake are two completely different concepts.
The local snake was so frightened that it curled up its tail completely, which made the dragon crossing the river lose its face. I was just about to spit out smoke and smoke. What do you think this is?
Li Po was too lazy to follow the party at this time. Everyone in Changping was worried. His time was limited and he would not stay here longer. Pei Shiqing and Zhang Lun had to finish the rest.
Thinking about it, the two people who were teased a little by the natives should have acted more decisively afterwards, right? Li Po waved his hand and brought the two thieves under Zhang Lun's command, while also thinking maliciously.
The gangs from Baodu Mountain and Yangtou Ridge descended one after another. Li Po did not see with his own eyes how effective the demonstration was. At this time, the battle reports from Chen Yuan and Yu Chigong arrived at Shangdang almost at the same time.
Wang Shichong sent Wang's daughter across the river to Jin. At the same time, the changes in Henan did not go unnoticed by Li Nian and Chen Yuan who were stationed on the bank of the Yellow River.
Wang Shichong prepared to march westward to Guanzhong.
There is nothing surprising. Li Po was knocking on the table in the Shangdang County Sheriff's Mansion, looking towards Henan in the distance.
Wang Shichong sent troops to attack Tongguan. This was undoubtedly what he expected. The time of occurrence was almost the same, that is, it happened in May and June. The war lasted for a month or two, and he could still harvest a crop of grain later.
Well, if there is still food to be harvested in Henan.
What he couldn't guess was what the outcome of this battle would be. There was no doubt that Wang Shichong couldn't defeat a dangerous pass like Tongguan.
Even Dou Jiande couldn't take advantage of him. Wang Shichong was already showing signs of twilight, and now he went to confront Li Yuan head-on. Apart from being hungry and anxious, he probably just hoped to conquer Guanxi and enter Chang'an to sit on the dragon throne.
Such a hope.
He said he couldn't guess the outcome because Li Po didn't know that Wang Shichong, who had been defeated and returned to Luoyang, could still live for a few days, or that he would be killed and drunk.
So next, Dongdu is just a piece of fat with dirt placed in front of everyone. Who will be the first to take a bite?
Li Yuan? Li Po is watching from the river. If you dare, take a step out of Tongguan. Dou Jiande, or Xiao Xian?
Li Po's eyes gradually turned dark. Henan had been completely turned into a mess by Wang Shichong and Li Mi. No matter who took over, they must be prepared to carry a big burden.
In such an upcoming chaos, is there any chance for him to break through?
