Chapter 822
Li Chong knelt down and thanked him. He did not have much resentment after losing the throne now. Instead, he felt glad because he had escaped from Arubu's control. After returning to the capital, he would not live a life of not having enough food, clothing, and being humiliated and scolded all day long, right? He did not ascend to the throne for a long time, and was still subject to the Queen Mother and Yang Jiefu during this limited period, and did not taste much of the benefits of power.
Of course, it is hard to say whether he will have other ideas after returning to the palace and adapting to his leisurely and wealthy life. However, Li You has already prepared for this. Hei Bingtai will monitor the residences of these former royal families for a long time. Once someone tries to use them to make trouble, he will be immediately ruthlessly suppressed by the court.
"Although Longcheng has fallen into our dynasty, there are still many remaining troops from the Northern Barbarians in the north. You must not slacken in and you must solve these people as soon as possible." After announcing the leniency of these people, Li You then talked about what to do next. Now the power of the Northern Barbarians has not been completely driven out of the inner road of the pass, and it is not the time to completely relax.
"The last general will receive the order!" Zhou Bofu, Qin Shixin and others came out at the same time and replied that the General Staff had already formulated a complete plan for how to carry out the final work, and they just needed to follow these plans.
"This time I have broken through Longcheng, my dear friends, and my dear friends have worked hard and made great contributions." Li You waved his hand, and the eunuch took out another imperial edict to read out the rewards for the meritorious ministers in the battle. From Qin Shixin, Zhou Bofu, to Sun Chuyang, Shi Huaiyi, to surrendered Wang Xuandao, Qin Zekun, and Zhai Xiongxin who led the rebel army to surrender.
I am now a fourth-rank general? Zhai Xiongxin was so happy that he couldn't stop and looked at Cheng Junda standing in front of him. Now they are on par again. However, the war on Henan Dao has ended, but there are still many northern barbarian troops left in the inner Dao. Zhai Xiongxin still has the opportunity to make achievements. Maybe after the inner Dao of Guan was completely pacified, he will come from behind.
Although Wang Xuandao and Qin Zekun did not have any official positions, they made a lot of contributions to intercepting Arubu and protecting Longcheng's food and grass. Li You not only pardoned their guilt for surrendering to the enemy in the past, but also arranged two small officials for them, which was able to return to the officialdom. The world is not yet determined, and there are still many opportunities to fight in all directions in the future. They may have the opportunity to re-take the army and even go to the next level. This is also because they did not do much evil under Arubu's command. Li You, who was accomplice for tigers and bully the people, had no good face for those surrendered generals who had been involved in the tiger and had already cut off a lot of heads after entering the city.
"I will thank you for your kindness!" Everyone was very happy and hurriedly bowed to Li You under the leadership of Qin Shixin and Zhou Bofu, and then went into the table to prepare and started a lively celebration banquet.
After the celebration banquet, the army immediately started. Zhou Bofu and Shi Huaiyi led two groups of people to start the journey to eliminate the remaining troops of the Northern Territory from two directions. Zhai Xiongxin, Wang Xuandao, Qin Zekun and others, who were familiar with the local situation, followed them respectively to provide advice and help for them.
After Arubu's death, the Northern Lu had already become a scattered sand. Some smart people had already received the news of the fall of Longcheng and quickly packed up their troops and retreated to the Mobei grassland, and escaped this disaster. And those who were not clear about the brains, a Jiazhou army would suffer huge damage even if they could break through Longcheng. They would definitely not have the energy to manage them in a short time, so these people wanted to continue to stay in Guannei Road to observe the wind and the wind was later talked about, but the speed of Zhou Bofu and Shi Huaiyi's march was beyond their expectations, and they quickly defeated these people like a divine weapon falling from the sky.
After suffering three major defeats from Henan Province, Gyeonggi Province and Longcheng, the power accumulated in the Mobei Grassland has quickly collapsed after decades. The remaining troops are simply unable to compete with the Jiazhou Army. Wherever Zhou Bofu and Shi Huaiyi go, the enemy troops dissipated like snow under the scorching sun.
Li You, who stayed in Longcheng, was not idle either. He sent a message back to the capital, asking Yao Guangxiao, Fan Li, Wang Ji and others to train capable officials to enrich the provinces and counties in Guannei Road, and transported them to look for seeds and farm tools for their production to restore production so that the land could recover its vitality as soon as possible.
Fortunately, the capture of Longcheng was very fast this time. In addition, the Black Ice Platform contacted many powerful factions in the city, and made it difficult for Arubu to rob the materials robbed from various parts of Guannei Road to be too damaged. Therefore, it is not too difficult for the people of Yanhuoguan to be in the fireworks. I believe that they will quickly adapt to their new life with the guidance of the court.
Along with officials, seeds, farm tools, etc., there are many teachers sent by the Ministry of Rites. Guannei Dao also needs to establish a new education system like other provinces. Li You has made arrangements. Now this palace in Arubu will become the location of Longcheng University Hall, so that talented people in Guannei Dao can have a suitable learning place.
The gold, silver and wealth found from the palace will also become the initial fund for the establishment of a school in Guanneidao. In three years, Guanneidao can also have a primary school in every county, and every prefecture can have an intermediate school. As for those top students, they should have an opportunity to study at Longcheng University.
The work of commanding the army in the middle, appeaseing the gentry and people in the inner road of Guan, preventing them from resuming production, and re-establishing an effective ruling system, and other work allowed Li You to stay in Longcheng for more than three months, until everything was on track, and he began to prepare to get up and return to the capital. The rest were some minor work, which was enough for local officials to do.
Before leaving, he made arrangements for the appointment of personnel in Guannei Tao. Zhou Bofu and Qin Shixin returned to the capital with him. Shi Huaiyi would continue to command the mixed army composed of Jiazhou army, rebel army and surrendered army to continue to clear out the remnants of the Northern Barbarians, and at the same time monitor the movements of the Mobei grasslands in order to prepare for the future march into Mobei.
The reason why he chose Shi Huaiyi instead of Qin Shixin was also deliberately done by Li You. First, they will play a role in other battlefields next, and second, Luo Shiji is now leading a single army in Hedong Road. If Qin Shixin, who was also born under Zhang Guo, is the same as Qin Shixin, who was under Zhang Guo's command, this is not a good thing for them or Li You. Some basic balances still need to be discussed.
