Chengde battles are densely covered with clouds, Jinyang is sad and bleak, but Peking is filled with laughter.

This is reality.

Just imagine, if the Guanxi Military and Political Group founded by Shao Shude is still nestled in Guanbei and leaning against natural barriers such as the Yellow River, Hengshan Mountains and the desert, and struggling to withstand attacks from all sides, Lingzhou would not have any positive aura.

But everything is different after all.

The Kansai Military and Political Group has absorbed a large number of Henan officials and military generals have joined. Now it has begun to absorb some "advanced elements" from Hebei. The entire group is getting bigger and bigger and better. The sorrows and joys between people are originally inconsistent.

The marriage between Shao Siwu, King Zhao of Daxia, and Yue Niang, the daughter of Zhang Huaishen, was the "focus news" in Peiping Prefecture in June.

The scene is so grand and the number of guests is eye-opening.

At the same time, there are rumors that Princess Shao Li of Miyuan was promoted to the new Jinshi Zhao Feng in August, and there were many happy events.

Under many focuses, at the end of June, Yu Lu saw the aunt give birth to a daughter in a low-key manner, but not many people paid attention to it.

Yu Lu was extremely disappointed when he saw his aunt, but Shao Shude was quite happy. After several sons in a row, a daughter finally came.

Xiao Chonggun's mood was also a lot better. She now mainly practiced dancing and painting with Xiao Shiwuniang, and only practiced playing the flute and flute with the saints on occasion.

Shao Shude likes that they both play together, one plays the flute horizontally and the other plays the flute vertically, which is the ultimate enjoyment.

After the wedding of his eldest son, Shao Shude returned to Jintai Hall and checked out the military newspapers of his eldest son Shao Chengjie in Shu, and carefully reviewed them. After a year of besieging the city, Li Maozhen's family burned himself to death and Chengdu was defeated.

King Shao Chengjie of Qin left Chang'an in August of the first year of Tianyou in the late Tang Dynasty and took two years to attack and decisive states one by one. At this stage, the battle was in a normal manner. Some of the states in Shannan West Road surrendered, while others did not surrender. The overall strength was relatively scattered, so most of them were siege battles and siege battles, and they were swept in two years, with very good efficiency.

Unfortunately, Li Kuanwei was still not found. The five thousand Youzhou soldiers he brought were found everywhere, and even the main officers and generals of the rebellion of the cities. After being arrested, they were tortured repeatedly. They learned that Li Kuanwei had been separated from them and were indecisive. Some people also said that Li Kuanwei was assassinated by Zhuge Zhongfang and threw his body into the wilderness.

Shao Shude remembered Zhuge Zhongfang again. Sometimes, he admired this guy's brain circuit.

Zhuge Shuang had a half-teacher relationship with Shao Shude. Later, he sent the Jiedu Secretary Jiang Dewen to Linzhou to talk to Shao Shude.

Before getting married, Zhuge Shuang received the wedding letter, and he also gave it a wedding room, and even attended the wedding as an elder.

Zhuge Shuang held a lot of favors to the emperor and the empress. With such a strong background, Zhuge Zhongfang played like this, it can only be said that the martial artist was so innate. Judging from the fact that he dared to assassinate Li Kuanwei and incorporated his 5,000 surrendered soldiers, Zhuge Zhongfang, who appeared to be honest, was secretly ambitious.

But he had no chance and could only stay honestly in the future.

From Zhuge Zhongfang, we can also reason that there are so many people in the Daxia court who are dormant due to the situation today.

Of course, Shao Shude was not overly worried.

He did not believe that other dynasties have been in ancient times, and all the generals and ministers were loyal when they founded. That was just a manifestation recorded in historical books. Who knows what they think in their hearts?

But everything depends on deeds, not on the heart, but on everything depends on performance. This is what a mature politician does.

After the rest of the army was completed, there was a two-year battle between Long Jian and Dongchuan Town. During this period, dozens of wars between all and big, the two sides won the battles, but the three main battles were won and Li Maozhen won more than 20,000 main men and more than 40,000 soldiers were eliminated, and they arrived outside Chengdu.

Next was the Chengdu siege and the Qiongnan offensive and defensive battle, and the Maozhen soldiers were wiped out again and more than 30,000 soldiers, killing Maozhen's son Li Jikan.

After five years, he collected five towns in Shannan West Road, Long Jian, Jiannan East Chuan, Jiannan West Chuan, and Qiongnan, and killed more than 100,000 thieves.

Shao Shude was basically satisfied with this achievement.

The children were born in this era. If they wanted to inherit the throne, they would not be able to be brave without military merits, otherwise they would be the end of Emperor Min of the Later Tang Dynasty.

After the review, he called the secretary-general Lu Siye and ordered: "I will enthrone the imperial edict of the Secretariat and enthrone Gao Renhou as Duke of Fengtian County as Duke of Ba. You can calculate the specific amount of food for the specific food."

"Your Majesty, yesterday the Political Affairs Hall discussed the matter in Shuzhong. After the Ministry of Personnel's examination and the calculation of the doctor's examination, it should be 4,700 households." Lu Siye replied.

Three hundred households were the prince. As Shao Shude was under the burden, he nodded and agreed, "Let's do it."

In the current New Year, except for the princes and princesses, the most common one is the Prince of Qinghe County, who has accumulated 5,600 households.

The second is the Prince of Le'an, with 5,000 households. He had no chance to make meritorious service, nor was he punished, and this food seal would not change.

Then there are 4,700 households of Duke Ba, Li Tangbin, and 4,300 households of Duke Lu Huaizhong, and Ji Duke Ge Congzhou. As for the princes and dukes of the previous generation who were posthumously enfeoffed, they are not included.

These heroes actually have a chance to make contributions, it depends on whether Shao Shude wants to give them.

"The three armies of Jindao, Heihun, Feixiong have been on the expedition for more than two years. Let's go back and rest." Shao Shude said: "The defense areas of each army will be divided again. The Jindao army is moved to Dengzhou, the Heihun army is moved to Huazhou, and the Feixiong army is moved to Ruzhou."

These three armies have followed their eldest son to fight since five years ago. They are going to withdraw and rectify, and their garrisons will be changed.

Even father and son have no slightest feelings when it comes to military power.

The eldest son has established prestige in these three troops, and may have promoted and placed private people. To this extent, Shao Shude can still tolerate it, even what he hoped. But this does not mean that he will not rectify it, it is the instinct of a political creature.

Who are you loyal to? The saint or the King of Qin? This needs to be clarified.

Before I die, you can't take a wrong step. Otherwise, Shao Shude wouldn't mind cleaning them thoroughly - he didn't want to see this step, and Chengjie shouldn't want to see it either, right?

"I transferred Yi to the army into Shu, and the King of Qin continued to stay in Shu for a year. I heard that there were more than 100,000 soldiers. At this time, it was time to eliminate the weak and stay in the strong. Let's draw an edict here." Shao Shude ordered again.

After the Jindao Army and other troops withdrew, King Shao Chengjie of Qin still had more than 100,000 troops under his tent, most of which were his troops who were plundering money and grain in the west road of Shannan and Shu. Among them, thousands of soldiers who followed him had transformed into various troops and served as backbone of officers.

This is actually a disguised form of starting from scratch, which means that the expansion speed is a little faster. How to digest Shao Chengjie stably and clean up and eliminate this army is the focus of Shao Shude's observation.

If you want to be an emperor, dealing with a martial artist is a necessary skill. If you can't pass this level, Shao Shude has to think about alternative solutions.

"There is another thing." Shao Shude was about to leave, but said again: "Let my son choose the light and valuable things and send them to Luoyang."

After saying that, he left.

Lu Siye wrote silently, without any extra words, and would not say to anyone. This is his official position and his way of dealing with things, and it is also the direct reason why he was able to rise to the top.

*******

On the tenth day of the seventh month, Jieyu Zhong gave birth to a daughter in Jiaotai Palace. Shao Shude was overjoyed and gave the name "Huiwan".

Among so many daughters, only three of them have been named by him so far.

One is the daughter born to the imperial concubine Zhao Yu in April of the third year of Dashun (892). The name is "Caiwei".

The second is the daughter born to Chongyuan Zhang Hui in the sixth year of Ganning (899), named "Jialuan".

The third one is the daughter "Huiwan", born to Concubine Zhuanjiao.

The other daughters are all single-character names, so they can take any of them casually, so they don’t care much.

From the naming matter, Shao Shude's preference can be fully seen.

After a rough count, he has now 29 biological children, which is not bad.

Compared with Cao Mengde, there are two worse, but the ratio of the son and daughters of Mengde brothers has reached more than 4:1, which is too huge, and the real number may be more than 31.

Compared to Li Shimin, he died too early and had no choice.

Compared to Zhu Yuanzhang, he is still 15 behind. I don’t know if he can catch up in this life. However, considering that Lao Zhu had more than ten sons after he was fifty, Shao Shude realized that he could play heavy swords, ride a fierce horse, and draw a strong bow, and still has great potential to dig.

The Shaw clan still needs to be carried forward.

It was also on this day that he received a top secret message from Jinyang: Li Keyong was in a serious condition and was bedridden. Unless it was important to matters of the shogunate, they were generally handed over to Li Xiji, Feng Dao, Li Luoluo and Li Sizhao to separate the matters.

Finally got real news!

Shao Shude was shocked and immediately summoned the Political Affairs Hall and the main officials of the Privy Council to discuss.

"Your Majesty, this matter is not easy to be public, and it is not appropriate to be tempted." Chen Cheng said: "It is best to send a close minister to Jinyang to visit. If there is something wrong in normal times, then there will be no major problems at this time."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at each other sideways.

Mr. Chen is very fascinated. Sometimes he is self-protection-oriented, and sometimes he makes bold suggestions.

Selfishness or selflessness? It is not like it.

Those who are completely selfish and self-protection will not be valued by the saints. However, they are too selfless and offended too many people, so they may not end up well.

Mr. Chen is so contradictory that many people can’t understand him.

"Chen Qing's words are reasonable." Shao Shude thought for a while and said slowly: "Who can go?"

Chen Cheng was silent for a moment and said, "I would like to go to Jinyang in person."

"No!" Shao Shude woke up. How could he be recommended by his ministers? He could only make arbitrary decision.

"Li Qing of Honglu Temple is not feeling well. Let Pei Guan go for this matter. Choose more high-quality medicinal materials, and the gift must not be thin." Shao Shude made the decision and said.

Pei Guan is currently the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple. He has served as the military supervisor of various camps many times. He is very brave and has rich experience. It is really good to be sent to him.

Li Hang was not young anymore. When he was young, he would go around in the wind and rain, and he would go on missions everywhere. In the chaos of war, it was common for him to sleep in the open air, and sometimes he would even get hurt. At the age of 40 or 50, he was suffering from illness and was no longer suitable for his mission.

If Pei Guan can complete the task smoothly, he will take over Li Hang's squad in the future to repay his achievements.
Chapter completed!
