0468 Everyone's Expectation
With the defeat of the Danyang people and the repeated purges, for the construction of the entire Jiankang City, Taichung no longer had a clear opposition for a while.
It's not that everyone's opinions have reached a consensus, and a considerable number of them are not interested in this at all, and whether Jiankang City is overhauled or not, they do not have much at stake. As for the other part of the opponents, with the example of the Danyang family in front of them, even if they do not agree, they really have no motive to sacrifice their political lives for the sake of opposition.
Without opposition, the pace of construction increased on a massive scale. Of course, there is also an episode, that is, Taichung has proposed to expand the armament of the guards for the sake of their own safety. Even if the army is not wantonly expanded, at least the original structure of the Sixth Army must be supplemented.
This proposal is related to the stability of the entire Jiankang City and the safety of many people, so once it was put forward, it was agreed by almost everyone in Taichung. But the idea is good, but there is another hurdle that cannot be bypassed, that is, the center has no money.
Although the entire Jiankang City is currently in full swing, most of the money needed is provided by the Wu people. As the leading group of big financiers in Jiangdong today, the position of the Wu people in the current situation is becoming more and more stable. If the Suwei wants to expand the army, it is bound to need the money and food support of the Wu people.
When this problem was really put on the table, people realized Wang Taibao's foresight. It is true that Yu Tan served as the protector of the Central Army, but there was actually no shortage of opposition in Taichung. For many overseas Chinese, there is actually no lack of hesitation in their hearts to hand over their security to a Wu person for protection.
However, because Wang Taibao did not have a clear opposition, even if there was some opposition in Taichung, with the support of the powerful Fang Zhen, Yu Tan was still pushed to this position.
Yu Tan served as the central protector, and the biggest advantage was that the Wu people, whether active or passive, in order to maintain the advantage of the position they had achieved, they must try their best to donate aid and support the expansion of the Su Guard. Moreover, due to the uniqueness of the Su Guard, it is difficult for the Wu people to join in on a large scale to decentralize power, and it is not possible to completely control the Su Wei by relying on the high position of Yu Tan alone. On the whole, Xu gave Yu Tan a position, and then introduced the financial resources of the Wu people, which was a strengthening of the central strength.
Another point that reflects Wang Dao's methods is that when facing many Fang Zhen's questioning centers, he did not fight for himself on the basis of reason, but sincerely admitted his mistakes and directly issued an edict to review Taifu's inaction and inaction in this turmoil. In addition to this humble attitude, they directly sent Zhao Fang Town and asked them to send other elite troops into Taiwan to defend it.
The disaster of Dong Zhuo in the Later Han Dynasty is not far away, in fact, for summoning Fang Zhen's army into the arch, the center of later generations is cautious, trying not to open this opening, and Fang Zhen also pays attention to avoid getting involved in this minefield.
There are generals in military law, but there are no orders in the king. In the same way, there are soldiers outside, and the generals will not be affected. It is true that for Fang Zhen, sending troops into the arch may obtain a way to directly affect the center. But it is more likely that after these soldiers enter the treacherous Jiankang City, they are very likely to get out of control or suffer from the trapping, which will bury great hidden dangers and uncertainties for themselves.
Of course, the reason why Fang Zhen has such scruples is because no matter which side of the army is nowadays, it may be stronger than the center after the chaos, but in the overall situation, each has its own flaws, and it cannot reach the level of dominance.
Tao Kanhan of Jingzhou is a prominent man, and he has always been suspicious of the center. Wang Shu of Jiangzhou has not been in the town for a long time, and he cannot completely control the department. Yuzhou's Yuyi vitality was greatly injured and too weak. The militia of the Xi Jian Institute in Xuzhou is the focus of suspicion. The Shen Chong Department of Dongyang Prefecture is full of Wu people, and the regionality is too prominent.
As for Xiangzhou, Liangzhou and even Jiaojiao and Guangzhou, their own strength is already meager, and there is no strength and demand for arching.
Therefore, with the issuance of Wang Dao's edict, all local towns cried in unison, and they no longer talked about this matter. But the words that are said are not easy to swallow back and pretend to be nothing, since the ruling of the center and the safety of Gyeonggi are questioned, then it is necessary to pay for those who should be paid for and those who should be paid.
Therefore, around this turmoil, Tingwei Bian Dun was dismissed and imprisoned, Tao Hui of the Northern Army was derelict and beheaded, and Taibao and Situ Wang Dao, who were in the center of the turmoil, although they repeatedly wrote to resign, were only fined in the end.
Along with the punishment, many Taichen, including Wen Qiao, were punished. Although his reputation will be damaged for a while, because Fang Zhen has actively or passively assisted the center, Wang Dao's ability to govern has been affirmed again.
Of course, for Director Wang, things are not good. He took advantage of the jealousy and contradictions between Fang Zhen to solve the current pressure of being held accountable, but these Fang towns in various places are not soft persimmons, and they have been squeezed for a while, but they have left a lot of trouble to solve.
For example, Tao Kan in Jingzhou did not have money and food, but he really sent a team of more than 1,000 people, led by his son Tao, and was already on the way east. As for whether to accept or not to enter the dormitory and where to arrange it, Director Wang and Yu Tan have been negotiating for several days.
Yuzhou's Yu Yi was even more desperate, and he did not donate money and food, but asked the center to send people to Liyang again. Where is this asking for people, it is clearly asking for officials. Zhao Yin has just been driven back on the front foot, it can be seen that the contradiction in Yuzhou is already very sharp, who dares to wade into this troubled water without knowing whether he is alive or dead! However, Yu Yi's job is still the history of Xuancheng, and moving the town of Liyang is still a little unreasonable in name.
Xi Jian of Xuzhou is quite peaceful, he only has the Beijing Mansion in his eyes now, and he dreams of being able to exert more influence on the Beijing Mansion. Therefore, for a while, there was some indifference to the Jiankang Center, and the earlier condemnation was only painless, and he was too lazy to remedy it afterwards.
But the most excessive is Shen Chong in Dongyangzhou, although some money and food were sent, but more people were sent, there were more than 20 people. It's just that these 20 or so people are not big soldiers, but come to Jiankang to be officials.
In his recital, it is said that after the chaos in the capital, the new rule is inevitable, the center is not available, and the political affairs are not repaired; He was worried about the national plan, and visited the countryside to visit the sages, and the results were quite outstanding, although these more than 20 people were rarely famous, but they all had extraordinary talents, and hoped that the center would not judge the talent by name, and weigh it.
Looking at the names of more than half of the surnames Shen in this list, Wang Daozhen couldn't help but praise this Shen Chong really has the legacy of an ancient sage who is virtuous and does not avoid relatives, but he just wants to ask Shen Chong, when did the Shen family become a benevolent and virtuous family that can cultivate virtuous people in batches? Where is this for the country, it is clear that his family is borrowing the state capital to travel at public expense!
The same situation is Wang Shu of Jiangzhou, he did not send his son Wang Yunzhi back to the capital as Wang Dao proposed, but also recommended more than a dozen people for the center, most of whom were clansmen from local families in Jiangzhou.
Nowadays, no matter how strong the family is in the center, after leaving the town, it must maintain a good relationship with the local people, at least it must pull one faction to fight another. Without the support of the locals, not to mention the difficulties in governance, even the army could get out of control!
After all, the people who live in Fang Town right now are almost isolated from being as deeply rooted in the township as the Shen family, with rich family resources and thick friendships with the villagers. Such a Fang town is too independent, if it weren't for Su Jun's rebellion, then whether Yu Liang was in power or Wang Dao was in power, he would inevitably have to do something against the Shen family. It's a pity that now, the central power is weak, and the other towns are also involved, and it has become a big trend!
It is necessary not only to deal with the problems that the local towns have given to the center, but also to stabilize the situation as soon as possible and put everything on the right track. Director Wang has also been very busy recently, but fortunately, Shang Shuling Wen Qiao is also actively participating in affairs at the moment, sharing some of his responsibilities for him.
Although his earlier situation of dictating political affairs was broken, and he often had disputes with Wen Qiao or Yu Tan on many matters, seeking common ground while reserving differences and handling interpersonal relationships were his specialties. At present, each party in Taiwan is performing its own duties, and the overall situation is developing in a positive way.
In fact, Director Wang is not a person with too much power in essence, and he can tolerate many different opinions, which is the biggest difference between him and Yu Liang. He may not have too strong aggressiveness and desire to control, but he has a unique trust in the rise and fall of chaos, and he may not be able to do anything earth-shattering, but if no one is overly restrained, it is more than enough to keep it.
At present, the construction of fortifications has been extended to Taicheng, and to be honest, Director Wang is quite pleased with the progress management of fortifications. In the past, such large-scale construction not only took a long time, but also caused chaos in supervision.
However, at present, the management of the fortifications in Taizhong is very organized, first of all, someone will use the bamboo fence to enclose a piece of the damaged building, and then quickly dismantle the remnants, clean up the site, someone is responsible for transporting materials, someone is responsible for digging the foundation, someone is responsible for masonry, and someone is responsible for the top of the beam. After completing the work at hand, the servant in charge of the matter is transferred to the next site.
This kind of construction management is not only clear and clear, but also extremely efficient. And what is even more rare is that it does not interfere too much with the normal office of Taichung. Now that the fortification has been carried out for nearly two months, some of the ministers are still working at the original site, while others have moved into the new government office.
In the evening, Director Wang instructed Peng's subordinates to send some literature, and Yuan Tan did not leave in a hurry after sending the literature, but stood in the room with a look of wanting to speak and stopping. Director Wang glanced at him and said with a smile: "Yan Dao has been in Taichung for a long time, it should be a long time since he returned home, right?" There are a lot of people on leave in Taichung today, do you want to go home to visit? Go ahead and go home and rest. ”
When Yuan Tan heard this, a trace of ridicule flashed in his eyes, and then he said in a deep voice: "Today's leavers, among them, Taibao really thinks that they are homesick?" I heard that there are many cars and horses in Wuyi Alley right now, the road is congested, and the wind is blocked! ”
When Director Wang heard this, his arm that was writing paused, and after a little silence, he smiled and said: "Human affection is all between greeting and sending off condolences." The old horses were outstanding, and the name was important at that time, and now the position and name are worthy of everyone, and everyone congratulates each other, which is normal. This also shows that the selection of horses in Taichung this time has won the wishes of the people. ”
