Chapter 750 Stone Dragon

Lingnan in June,

Sultry afternoon.

Outside Lingluo County, the sound of horse hooves could be heard, and a cavalry team came galloping towards them.

The athletes from the Central Plains who were measuring rulers and burying boundary stones in the countryside couldn't help but stop what they were doing and look at the cavalry coming along the Luo River.

"The tooth soldiers of Rongzhou Governor's Mansion."

"Chen Longshu is here?"

Several officers and soldiers from the Central Plains who were dividing the land were standing there to rest and chat. They were not at all worried about Governor Chen's tooth soldiers.

Although it is said that a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake, it does not mean that a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a river.

After the Lihu rebellion lasted for half a year, it finally changed rapidly after Wu Huaiyu led the Central Plains elite into Lingnan. First, Wu Huaiyu resigned from Long, and Luo Dou collapsed with three shots. More than 30,000 rebels surrendered, and Luo Dou was renamed Xinyi.

county.

Immediately afterwards, Luobiandong was defeated, which is where they are now. Twenty thousand rebels surrendered, and Wu Huaiyu changed Luobiandong into Lingluo County.

Lingluo is the Huazhou Hejiang River in later generations, because the Lingjiang River and the Luo River meet here.

As these two rebel strongholds were breached, the entire Yunkai Mountain rebel army fell apart. The soldiers of Gao and Rong, who had been slacking off during these days, were also active under the leadership of the governors and governors.

to conduct sweeping operations to encircle and suppress the remnants of the rebels.

The rebels collapsed and surrendered one after another, begging for mercy.

Throughout June, the situation was completely one-sided, and the elite Tang army in the Central Plains became more relaxed. Only some of them were sent to participate in encirclement and suppression, while the majority were busy resting and reorganizing, and dividing their fields and building cities.

The area that used to be Luobindong is now divided into Benzhou, including Shilong and Lingluo counties.

In Lingluo, Zhoucheng, there were a thousand men and horses from Yongning Junzuo Town among the six towns in Lingnan. Wu Huaiyu counted and registered the fields confiscated from Li Xie, divided them among these officers and soldiers, and set aside a large area as military garrison land.

, as well as official land, professional land, etc.

This area of ​​Lingluo is a branch of the Yunkai Mountains. It is mainly hilly and has a lot of arable area.

In later generations, the orange color here was very famous.

"Chen Rongshu probably came here with Tan Dian's head in mind, right?"

"Well, I heard that he issued a military order to Prime Minister Wu. If the leader of the Tan Palace cannot be brought to see him, then he must bring his head to see him."

"I heard that Tan Dian and Chen Longshu had a good relationship before?"

Several guardsmen from the Luoling Guards of the Yongning Army stood there chatting, with fertile fields at their feet and the Luo River flowing slowly beside them.

These lands are cultivated land, cultivated by Li Liao barbarians for generations. Now with the defeat of the rebels, these lands have been confiscated by Wu Huaiyu. Although some lands such as Shilong were also occupied by wealthy families such as Chen Feng, the struggle between the various forces is too fierce.

sharp,

For example, Shilong County was originally the land of Gaoxing County in Yuezhou in the Southern Dynasties and was controlled by the Chen Tan family of Hepu Marshal. Later, Mrs. Xian was canonized as Mrs. Tai of Shilong County and also occupied this place for a time.

During the Wude period, Qinzhou Ning clan, Tandian and other forces also joined the competition, making the situation even more complicated.

Not long ago, the imperial court separated Shilong from Luozhou, and established Luobindong as Lingluo County, etc., creating a new Benzhou.

To be honest, many people would say that he is the owner of this land.

But now Wu Huaiyu has defeated Tan Dian, Fu San and other rebels, and no one will admit it. He directly encloses the land here.

The Six Lingnan Towns, the Twelve Lingnan Military Commands, the Third Naval Battalion, and the Third Inspection Battalion were the original Central Army. Wu Huaiyu divided the land and fields for them.

Each soldier has 100 acres of land, and his family members who follow the army will also be divided into 100 acres of land, 100 acres for young men, 50 acres for young women, and 50 acres for middle-aged men. Anyway, there is a lot of land now, and the cultivated land is not enough. Some reclaimable wasteland can also be built.

The cavalry of Rongfu Yajun arrived all the way outside Lingluo City.

Officers and soldiers from Lingluo Guard in Yongning Town stopped them.

"We are the Yajun of Rongfu. Governor Chen is here to pay homage to Mr. Wu."

After some inspection, the gray-haired Chen Longshu entered Lingluo City with only two soldiers.

The capital of Benzhou is not in Lingluo, but in Shilong downstream.

Shilong County, which is separated from Luozhou, has a more important geographical location. It is the intersection of Luojiang River and Jianjiang River. The upper reaches of Jianjiang River is Douzhou, the lower reaches are Panzhou, and part of Gaozhou is also passed in the middle.

Chen Longshu entered Lingluo City and was told that Wu Huaiyu had returned to Shilong.

Therefore, Governor Chen did not stay in Lingluo City, and went out of the city directly, leading the Rongfu Yajun cavalry down the Luo River and heading straight for Shilong.

Along the way, there were Tang troops everywhere measuring fields and dividing land.

Chen Longshu just said nothing about this, although he had a lot to say about it in his heart.

Stone Dragon City.

Several fast horses entered the city earlier than Chen Longshu.

"Prime Minister Tan, Tan Dian was beheaded. Chen Longshu personally led his troops to pursue him for hundreds of miles, chasing him in the mountains, surrounded Tan Dian, and shot him dead. Now he is on the way with his head.

."

"The rebellions in Yizhou and Yuzhou have been put down."

In the city, Wu Huaiyu was not surprised to hear the news at the Yamen of the Governor of Bianzhou. He was playing chess with his in-law Feng Zhidai.

Feng Shiyi, the governor of Benzhou, and Pang Xiaotai, the governor of Duanzhou, accompanied him.

"Tan Dian is really on a dark road, but it's a pity that good luck will not always follow him. The rebellion in the sixth year of Wude and the first year of Zhenguan has not yet learned the lesson, and it can only happen in three ways,"

"It is not a pity to die."

When Feng Zhidai heard that Tan Dian was dead, he was so shocked that he held the chess piece in his hand for a long time without falling. However, after the chess piece was placed, he made a bad move, which made Wu Huaiyu laugh and massacre him.

Not only Feng Zhidai, but also all the local Lingnan generals present here, Tan Dian is not just a simple name in their hearts.

This is the most famous barbarian king among the raccoons in the Yunkai Mountains over the years.

It's a pity that it ended up like this.

They all thought that even if they failed, as long as they retreated to the mountains, they could at least continue to be the masters of Datong, negotiate terms with the court, and even become the king of the mountains.

But who would have thought that he would die like this?

What's more, the person who killed him was Chen Longshu.

When Chen Longshu's father rebelled against the Sui Dynasty and was defeated in the siege of Guangzhou and was shot dead by Feng Ang, Chen Longshu fled. However, Tan Dian sent the leader to take over and escorted him to Qinzhou to join Ning Lili. Tan Dian was once a subordinate of the Chen family.

This grudge and resentment ultimately ended like this.

sunset,

The summer heat has dissipated slightly,

The sky is filled with red clouds,

The governor of Rongzhou personally came to Shilong to meet Wu Huaiyu and brought Tan Dian's head.

When the pickled head was placed in front of Wu Huaiyu, the Yunkai Wuzhou rebels in Lingnan were basically pacified. Before Wu Huaiyu came, the rebellion had not been suppressed for half a year. Once Wu Huaiyu came, it was quickly pacified.

"Martial Prime Minister,"

Chen Rongshu was very haggard. Perhaps his lips were chapped due to the many days of siege and pursuit and running all the way.

"The rebellious raccoons have been suppressed. The next step is to appease them and not kill them any more."

"Tan Dian is also dead. No one dares to resist the imperial court now."

"Enough people have died."

Feng Zhidai also said at this time, "We have killed a hundred thousand raccoon barbarians before and after. We have indeed killed enough."
