Chapter 659: Good News
Yanmen
The members of the Xianbei royal court had been paying attention to the development of Zhuozhou, so they received the news when Pingzhou used troops against Dali.
"Khan, Pingzhou and Dali really fought!"
The Han people were fighting among themselves, fighting among themselves!
"Khan, this is our chance."
"Well, proceed according to the plan!"
Zhuozhou
Ma Jin was sent back to Zhuozhou by the soldiers, and the military doctor immediately gave him emergency treatment.
However, after the military doctor examined him, he shook his head and told Qin Zhao that his condition was not optimistic. It is estimated that he can only save one life after the treatment, and he will probably not be able to go to the battlefield in the future.
Qin Zhao felt very heavy when he heard this.
Dong Jichuan on the side comforted him, "We will die on the battlefield, and it is good enough for Deputy General Ma to save his life."
Xie Zhan's trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain and luring the enemy was really hard to guard against.
Fortunately, they only had the city of Zhuozhou in their eyes at that time, and the general who led the troops to pursue was not Qin Zhao, otherwise, even if Zhuozhou was captured, it would be a bit unprofitable.
So, it is still reasonable not to pursue a desperate enemy.
Qin Zhao nodded, "Yes, it is a blessing to be alive. After he recovers a little, let him return to the rear of Pingzhou to recuperate." We will arrange the work later depending on the recovery situation.
At this time, the subordinates came hurriedly, "General Qin Zhao! Lieutenant General Dong!"
Qin Zhao asked, "What's the matter so urgent?"
"Just received news that the Jintai Army led by General Qin Sheng went to attack Bohai County after taking Qingzhou Leling County."
Hearing this, Qin Zhao and Dong Jichuan looked at each other.
After the subordinates reported, they asked stupidly, "General Qin Zhao, are we going to attack Hejian next?"
Should we go south to attack Hejian?
"General Dong, what do you think?"
"General Qin Zhao, what do you think?"
After they finished speaking, they smiled at each other, and saw the same meaning in each other's eyes.
Qin Zhao decided to attack Hejian!
They attacked Zhuozhou, and the casualties were very small, so they could immediately march south to Hejian.
As the saying goes, opportunities are fleeting, and opportunities cannot be missed, and they will never come back. Now we have the chance to seize it!
Anyway, the matter of beheading first and reporting later was pushed onto Xiaoliu! If the sky falls, there is Xiaoliu, a tall man, to support it. If the sixth brother's wife is angry, there is Xiaoliu to support it.
However, before he set off, he sent a message to his eldest brother, asking him to send more troops to garrison Zhuozhou.
Pingzhou Changli
Lu Songli is waiting for news from Qingzhou and Zhuozhou.
She thinks that they have done so much preparation in the early stage, and there should be good results.
She has already prepared a list of officials to be sent to Zhuozhou and Leling County, and has notified them privately that they can set off at any time.
"My dear, are these officials going to be sent to govern Zhuozhou and Leling County?"
"Yes."
Lv Desheng said with a sigh, "Sure, they are both old hands in Dongting Lake." He was talking about the two leaders.
The officials that Lv Songli sent to Zhuozhou, Hejian and other places this time are all mature, experienced and capable officials. There is no doubt that these newly conquered cities will have many potential problems.
When sending capable local officials, the first thing to do is to appease the people in the city, and then the local management. These are all things that cannot be missed.
For talents, Pingzhou has its own training mechanism.
Those young and inexperienced officials are placed in the inner city of Pingzhou for training during the stage of accumulating qualifications and experience. Later, when their experience and ability are improved, they will be placed in the border city for trial according to their ability. Let the chief officer of the border city lead the new. If these young officials can pass the trial, they can try to be independent.
Those officials with strong abilities and skills can be reused by Lv Songli, such as Zhang Xian, who is stationed in Youzhou, and Liu Heshan, who is now the governor of Fuyu County...
These cities are either bordered by Xianbei or Dali, and the situation is complicated. They need capable officials like Zhang Xian and Liu Heshan to guard them.
Such an official layout is the opposite of Dali.
In Dali, the ministers who govern the border cities are loyal but incompetent. Such ministers are loyal to the royal family and the court, which ensures that he will not easily betray and make trouble. In addition, his lack of ability can ensure that he will not pose too much threat even if he turns the tables.
When Lv Songli employs people, she truly achieves the principle of selecting people based on their talents, and everything depends on their abilities.
Of course, this is also related to her cognitive mind and control.
At this time, the good news that Lv Songli has been waiting for finally came.
"Governor, there is a good news from Qingzhou. Leling County has been captured!"
"Governor, General Qin Zhao sent a message saying that the entire Zhuozhou has been captured!"
Lv Songli was very happy. Leling County and Zhuozhou were both captured, and the predetermined goal was successfully completed.
Lv Desheng next to him was also very happy.
Lv Songli thought that he could let the prepared officials set off.
At this time, Jiang Yizhou came in again, and he was very excited, "Governor, there is another good news!"
Lv Songli looked at him in confusion, why is there another good news?
Jiang Yizhou was very happy, and he read out the content of the good news loudly, "This is a good news from Qingzhou. After taking Leling County, our army continued to advance to the north. At present, Chongping County, Dongguang County, Tongxiang County and Yangxin County have been successively captured!"
For the frequent good news, Lv Songli:...
She probably guessed what was going on.
"Give it to me." Lu Songli stretched out her hand toward Jiang Yizhou.
Jiang Yizhou silently presented the report sent back from the front line.
"What's going on? Is something wrong?" Lu Desheng was a little confused.
After Lu Songli read the detailed report, she couldn't help but pinch her eyebrows.
She handed the report to her father, "You can read it yourself."
After reading it, Lu Desheng was very happy. After all, his son-in-law was so capable and had contributed to Pingzhou again.
Moreover, the son-in-law also said that the Jintai Army is already attacking Gaocheng County, and it is not certain that Gaocheng County will be captured by now. Five of the ten counties in Bohai County have been conquered, which is equivalent to half of Bohai County being obtained.
Lu Desheng saw that there was no smile on his daughter's face, so he couldn't help but suppress the smile in his eyes.
At this time, the guard outside came to report, "Governor, General Qin Heng wants to see you."
Qin Heng is back? Father and daughter looked at each other.
"Invite him in."
After receiving the agreement, Qin Heng strode in.
"Governor, it is outrageous for Qin Zhao to lead an army to attack Hejian without orders."
Lu Songli: Third brother is also fooling around?
"General Qin Heng, Qin Zhao is not the only one who acts without permission."
Qin Heng: Huh?
"Let's take a look." Lu Songli handed him the report that Qin Sheng led the Jintai Army to conquer the four counties of the Bohai Sea.
After Qin Heng read it silently, he said seriously, "Governor, if they knock down Hejian Bohai this time, they cannot be credited. This wind must not help the rise!"
"According to what General Qin Heng said. This time the merits and demerits of the two armies are equal, so they will not be punished or rewarded. But next time they disobey the command, they will be punished according to military law!"
Lu Desheng on the side held a moment of silence for his cheap son-in-law. It was pitiful. Under the joint efforts of his wife and his eldest brother to suppress him, he did extra work and did so well, but he was not rewarded. Tsk, tut.
"Also, we need to mobilize troops and horses immediately to transport food and grass."
Qin Heng nodded. Before he came back, he sent the army there.
Lu Songli picked up the pen, thought for a moment, and added the names of two more officials to the list of officials to be dispatched.
If they really capture Hejian and Bohai, it will be equivalent to capturing a state at once this time. A state is roughly the size of four counties.
Now that the territory has been won, it must be defended! There is no reason to spit out what you eat into your stomach.
