Time travel rebellion, I'm serious

Chapter 391 8 Prince Yishan

As the saying goes, when a man fights a wolf, he is afraid of two enemies. At this time, in the capital of Jiangzhou, which is not far away from the Han army, the legendary warrior of the Daqian court, the Eighth Prince Yishan, leads the most capable army in the court. , at this time, he had desperately accepted the imperial edict.

Although the imperial court didn't know what the Jiangnan Camp had become, as the commander of the Jiangnan Camp, he knew it clearly.

It can be said that Jiangnan Camp has been abandoned since he took over. It is not that he has not thought about reform over the years, but the resistance is too great.

It's not that he, Yishan, can't lift a knife. After all, as the eighth prince of the imperial court and the eighth uncle of the current emperor, he has a lot of lives on his hands anyway.

But, whether it is the Jiangnan Camp, the Jiangbei Camp, or the Forbidden Army, they were all formed by the Yi clan's descendants, and all of them were members of the clan.

Actually, these people are essentially different from their surnames and are not relatives of the emperor.

It's just that they are barbarians, different from the Han people.

Back then, with the support of the Sima family, their barbarians unexpectedly ruled this huge country. However, in order to ensure the stability of the country, they could only reuse their tribesmen.

This policy remains the same to this day. These are the only armies that the imperial court can allow and support.

For example, there are quotas for county soldiers. A small and poor county can only have a maximum of [-] county soldiers, and a large and rich county can only have [-] county soldiers.

As for the county seat, it is not allowed to form an army, and it cannot afford the quota for dozens of government officials.

At the same time, the county soldiers' armaments are also the worst.

Moreover, these county soldiers are theoretically not allowed to serve as soldiers for two years.

Of course, it sounds like good governance to the outside world, but in fact it only weakens the combat effectiveness of county soldiers.

Therefore, the turnover of county soldiers is very fast. In addition, there is no food and salary, and they have to bring their own meals. The combat effectiveness can only increase and decrease.

Therefore, when there is a general rebellion in a certain place, the county soldiers are defeated first, and then after the court reacts, the Jiangnan or Jiangbei camp will be dispatched to directly crush the rebels.

As for why the White Lotus Sect can become so big, that is completely unexpected.

After all, two emperors died within a year, not to mention the local chaos, even the central government was also in chaos.

Then, after the court was stabilized, the White Lotus Sect had already occupied the four states.

Therefore, for the sake of caution, the Jiangnan camp has not been moved. It only relies on county soldiers from various places and the militia and township regiments formed to fight against the White Lotus Sect.

After local officials saw that the court was stable, they felt relieved and started fighting with Bai Lian.

Only then did Jiang Fenghua play smoothly, and Bai Kaimin was blasted as soon as he took over.

In fact, this has something to do with Bai Kaimin's ambition and talent, but it also has something to do with bad luck.

So the burden became even worse. After Jiang Fenghua returned, his home was stolen.

Ahem......

Going a step further, let’s just say that the Jiangnan camp at this time was completely abandoned.

After the Eighth Prince Yishan took over, he naturally discovered problems and wanted to start reforms. However, these people were all members of his own family, and the country needed them.

Therefore, no matter how useless these soldiers are, he has to maintain them and cannot move them.

It really made his head turn gray with worry.

In the end, after the reform failed to produce any results and he was reprimanded by the emperor's decree, he just started to act.

These days, if I can live one day at a time, I will quit.

So it didn't take long for the emperor to become the late emperor. Later, the late emperor's son succeeded to the throne and became the late emperor nine months later.

Then everyone discovered in horror.

The emperor's line is extinct!

Therefore, the imperial court was in chaos at that time, and he finally found someone from his direct lineage and allowed his six-year-old son to ascend the throne.

In the end, the legitimate prince was promoted to the rank of prince and regent, and together with the queen mother (his sister-in-law), he assisted the young emperor and took charge of the court.

As for the prince's younger brother, he was also promoted to the rank of prince.

Of course, the changes in the imperial court had nothing to do with him, the Eighth Prince, because after the death of two emperors, he was still the Eighth Prince.

Even because of the great changes in the imperial court, the Jiangnan and Jiangbei camps remained motionless, which made the imperial court extremely trustful.

But even so, he had no intention of changing things in Jiangnan Camp.

Living in the state capital all day long, drinking fine wine, tasting delicious food, and appreciating beautiful women.

Of course, he likes to cultivate pearls with beautiful women, and then use them as medicine to prolong life.

Life is really juicy and interesting.

He called it: "Boundless joy."

Therefore, he did not care much about the war in the imperial court. Anyway, as long as the Jiangnan camp did not move, the officials below would fight on their own.

In this way, the officials do not know the details of the imperial court and have no fear in their hearts, so they will naturally be able to suppress the White Lotus Sect.

Besides, it's not like he didn't know what was going on below. He knew everything about selling grain, salt, pig iron, and even weapons and armor to Bai Lian.

Why?

He is a shareholder! !

After all, what the soldiers of the Jiangnan Camp can do, what can I, as the commander of the Jiangnan Camp and the dignified Eighth Prince of the imperial court, not do? ?

Anyway, the exposure of these food, weapons, armor and other materials did not cause him any harm. Even the White Lotus Sect took the initiative to attack many times and was repelled by the local county soldiers, so there was nothing to fear.

So when arrogance became the norm, he never expected that the imperial court would order Jiangnan Camp to suppress bandits.

You know, this decision will dig deep roots!

Daqian is in danger!

However, no matter how anxious Yishan was in his heart, he still sent the messenger off with a smile.

After the messenger left, he lowered his feet and relaxed his chest.

"Think of me, Yi Shan. I don't like to offend others when I do things for others. I treat people well and treat virtuous people in court. I should treat them as...ahem...ahem..., and I am the most loyal minister of the imperial court. Who is trying to kill me?"

However, even though Yishan said this, he still didn't want to send troops.

But this is just an idea after all. The actual action is still in accordance with the requirements of the imperial court, preparing to go to the camp to gather troops and horses, and then send troops to Leizhou.

"Hurry up and prepare the sedan, no, hurry up and prepare the horse. This king, bah, I am going to the Jiangnan Camp."

Yishan's mansion is a large garden designed according to the prince's specifications. The interior is extremely exquisite, so it is a full thirty miles away from the Jiangnan camp.

Although it's not far, it's not close either.

So Yishan's horse galloped and rushed towards the Jiangnan camp.

Along the way, Yishan thought about how to eliminate the Han bandits entrenched in Changsha County while not damaging the foundation of the court as much as possible.

Of course, he could not count on the local county soldiers and township regiments. After all, the Han thieves were powerful, and Changsha County was captured with almost no resistance.

You said that the county soldiers did not fight against the Han traitors, that is impossible.

So when you say you're counting on the local garrison, there's no way people are still counting on you.

When both parties look at each other as Muggles, it will be embarrassing.

Likewise, this will also show the weakness of the imperial court to the outside world, which is simply a terrifying thing.

After much deliberation, he felt that the best way was not to use the Jiangnan camp.

However, the decision to dispatch the Jiangnan camp was issued by the imperial court.

If he violates the rules, victory is easy to say, but if he loses, he will probably be deprived of all rights and imprisoned even if he doesn't die.

So, on horseback, he looked at the Jiangnan Camp in the distance with a ruthless look on his face.

"A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist. Everyone, if I die, I will bury you with me!"
