Chapter 62 Fang Yanqian’s decision! (I)

The impact of Yu Culture and the regicide of regicide is not as simple as Yan Qing imagined.

Previously, everyone fought for each other, and they all fought desperately with the Yang family of Sui. But as soon as Yang Guang died, this orthodox name became something everyone was paying attention to. In mid-February, Xie Yingdeng, the general of Yingyang Lang of Jingkou, led 800 warriors to cross the river to capture Yangzigong, killed Yu Weng and his general Zhang Kai, and successfully welcomed Empress Xiao and his 17-member hiding in Jiangyang County, and returned to Yanling County.

Empress Xiao arrived in Yanling and immediately cried about Yu Wenji's atrocities.

"Yang waits for the wild head to be broken, but the wild head is not as good as the wolf-like man.

He attacked Jiangdu Palace at night, and His Majesty died tragically in the palace... Such young and innocent, ruthless, heroes in the world should be punished together."

Although Queen Xiao is a woman, she is Yang Guang's official palace and the queen who is in charge of the world.

After Yang Guang's death, Empress Xiao represented the orthodox of the Sui Yang family to a certain extent. Her words were equivalent to giving the world a clear statement: Yu Wenhe is a rebel and a rebel, and everyone in the world can kill him!

Even when Li Mi rebelled, Yang Guangwei never gave him such a comment.

But now...

Empress Xiao's words immediately aroused countless responses. In early March, Danyang Tongguan, Dangtu Nan, and Xuancheng guerrilla general Fang Xuanling recruited troops in Jiangning and took the lead in starting a war in Jiangdu. Then, the head of the Zhang clan of Wu County, Zhang Zhongjian, who was Count of Kunshan, all raised 20,000 heroes of his clan and went out of Piling County to conquer Yu Culture and Culture.

Fang and Zhang are now the most prestigious in Jiangnan.

As soon as these two families stood up, the Xie clan, who had moved to the An family in Kuaiji County, immediately summoned 8,000 soldiers in Kuaiji County and rushed to Danyang.

However, not everyone supports Yang.

Just when Zhang Zhongjian led his troops to raise an army, the county magistrate of Wujun, Shen Faxing, who was also a wealthy family in Wujun, raised an army in Wuxian. In the name of conquering Yu Culture and the culture, he quickly occupied the entire Wujun when the elite troops of the Zhang clan were all out, and recruited more than 60,000 troops. He claimed to be the chief general of Jiangnan Road, conquered Yuhang County, and captured Xuancheng, and his power expanded rapidly. In early April, Shen Faxing enfeoffed all officials in Qiantang, and his ambition was fully demonstrated.

For a time, Fang Yanqian and his son and Zhang Zhongjian were faced with an enemy from both sides.

Fang Xuanling rushed to Jiangning from Jingkou at night. After discussing with Fang Yanqian, she visited Empress Xiao overnight and asked Empress Xiao to make Yang Guang's grandson, Yang Guo, who was only three years old, the emperor. Empress Xiao was the queen after all, and her opinions also represent the orthodox Sui family to some extent.

So after thinking about it, Empress Xiao declared the world on April 14th, and helped the eldest son Yang Guo ascend the throne and change the reign of the emperor to inherit the throne.

As soon as this edict was issued, the world was in an uproar.

Previously, Li Yuan held the King of Dai Yang You to proclaim himself emperor and changed the reign of Yining; later, Wang Shichong held the King of Yue Yang Tong to proclaim himself emperor and changed the reign of Emperor Tai. Although these two were called emperors, they were not as good as the orthodox Yang Guo in Jiangning in name. No wonder, you were hostage, and Yang Guo was established by Empress Xiao himself, which was not comparable to the two emperors Yining and Emperor Tai.

After all, Empress Xiao has followed Yang Guang for many years, and he should not be underestimated in terms of power and strategy.

She supported the young Sun Yangguo as the emperor and empress, and immediately appointed Fang Yanqian as the prime minister, Zhang Zhongjian as the Minister of State, and the governor of internal and external military affairs.

Fang Xuanling served as Minister of War, General Zuo Xiaowei, and was appointed as Duke Dangtu.

The court's aura must be put forward first. After Empress Xiao established the orthodox position in Jiangning, the Sui court officials who were wandering in Jiangdu all defected. Immediately afterwards, the general manager of Liyang County and the leader of the rebel army, Du Fuwei, wrote a letter to surrender, and was mainly honored by Emperor Qi Yang Guo in Liyang.

At first, Empress Xiao was not willing to accept it, but Fang Yanqian said, "With Du Fuwei and captured Jianghuai Road, why should the Empress Dowager care about his past? Back then, Mai Tiegang Maizhu Kingdom was also a bandit, but since he surrendered to the predecessor, he was loyal and righteous.

The Empress Dowager should follow the methods of the Emperor, not only pardoning Du Fuwei, but also giving him a legitimate name.

Didn’t Du Fuwei call himself the General Manager of Liyang before? The Empress Dowager appointed him as General Manager of Liyang and gave him another title, and ordered him to raise an army from Liyang and join forces with Fang Qiao to attack Jiangdu. Then he asked Shangshu Zhang to lead his soldiers and seize Wu County again, so that the peace can be obtained in Jiangnan..."

Empress Xiao accompanied Yang Guangli through so many hardships, from King Jin to Emperor Daye later, she has gone through ups and downs. Now, Empress Xiao is nearly fifty years old. Although she is well maintained, her age is still there. She can make Emperor Yang of Sui obey his words and still be obsessed with him for decades of marriage, but it is not all about beauty. She has her own way of dealing with the world, and she is very clever.

After hearing what Fang Yanqian said, Empress Xiao immediately realized her mistake.

Many old officials from great affairs gathered in Jiangning City.

But Empress Xiao trusts the most and believes that the person she is most trustworthy, is the father and son of the Fang family and the Zhang clan of Wu County.

"What the Prime Minister said is very true, then do it according to the Prime Minister's idea."

Du Fuwei's Jianghuai Army was also an extremely fierce group among the various rebel armies. Its combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of Wagang.

However, the number of soldiers in the Jianghuai River is not as powerful as that in Wagang, and the military discipline is scattered.

In fact, Wagang was the same at the beginning. However, after Li Mi went up the mountain, Qin Qiong, Wei Zheng Zheng and Zheng Tingxiang and other court officials joined, they gradually reversed the trend. Du Fuwei's Jianghuai Army did not have such an opportunity, nor did Li Mi's prestige. In addition, when he first started his rebellion, he fought with Fang Xuanling and was defeated repeatedly. Almost one of them was in a state of rushing and desperate situation. How could he have the opportunity to rectify military discipline?

When the world was in chaos and the Jianghuai bandits were everywhere, and Fang Xuanling had no time to take care of it, it was difficult for Du Fuwei's military discipline to change any more.

However, getting such a strong soldier is undoubtedly a huge gain for Emperor Chengqi of Jiangning.

It was drizzling in April.

Fang Yanqian returned home, but saw Fang Xuanling waiting at home.

Fang Xuanling was 39 years old and had been in the officialdom for many years. He was no longer as immature as he was when he first met Li Yanqing in the bamboo garden in Luoyang.

He is tall, about eight feet away.

He is strong, but not elegant.

When Yan Qing communicated in private, he praised Fang Xuanling as a martial artist. He said that he had the heroic spirit of a military general and the elegance of a famous scholar.

Fang Xuanling replied that he liked this statement.

"Xiao Qiao, why are you running back when you are not supervising the battle in Jingkou?"

Fang Xuanling's real name was Fang Qiao, so Fang Yanqian often called him "Xiao Qiao". Even later, Yan Qing made the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and the bronze bird's deep palace locked two Qiao, which made Fang Xuanling laugh for a while. As Fang Xuanling's status grew, fewer and fewer people dared to call him Xiao Qiao. In addition to Yan Qing and Du Ruhui occasionally called this in letters, only Fang Yanqian called this.

"Dad, I heard that Du Fuwei asked for surrender?"

“That’s right.”

"The Queen Mother..."

"The Empress Dowager didn't agree at first, but I persuaded her just now, and she nodded in the end."

"Um!"

Fang Yanqian said: "Why, don't you be optimistic about Du Fuwei?"

"Dad, Du Fuwei is a hero, heroic person.

Although I fought with him many times, and I was almost killed by him, I admire him very much. When I came to Danyang and said goodbye to Yan Qing in Xingyang County, Yan Qing once said that Jianghuai would suffer from bandits, and Du Fuwei was the first to be affected. I was prepared to fight for five years, but Du Fuwei was not captured by me, but he became stronger and stronger. He was indeed a rare talent. If this person could submit sincerely, he would be a rare general... But what I was worried about was not Du Fuwei, but Fu Gongyou."

"oh?"

"Fu Gongyou ranked fourth on the list Yan Qing gave me.
