Chapter One Hundred and Three: King Zhao Leads the Army to Chu and King Qin Luoyang Manages the Overall Situation (10)
(Second update.) Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoοΌ
The reason why Li Congjing stayed in Luoyang, and the reason why the Hundred Battles Army did not follow Li Congrong to go on the expedition, was to deal with the current situation, and there would inevitably be a storm in the rectification of the officials, which was expected by Li Congjing and Li Siyuan earlier.
Of course, the reason why this is the case is not that local officials like Kang Yicheng, ministers of Luoyang, and Kong Xun, are not strong enough to oppose the rule of officials, but that Li Siyuan and Li Congjing have done a good job from the beginning.
It can even be said that the turmoil in the feudal town at this time was expected by Li Siyuan, Li Congjing's father and son.
"This turmoil in the feudal town, except for the Bianzhou Xuanwu Army taking the lead in showing the banner, it is not surprising that the Yunzhou Tianping Army and the Qingzhou Pinglu Army will rise up one after another, and whether the Huazhou Yicheng Army will join forces is still between the two." Li Congjing said to Li Siyuan, "At that time, the land of thousands of miles in Shandong will inevitably be in flames, and in order to prevent the thieves from causing chaos in the place for too long and causing too much disaster to the state and county, the imperial court forbidden army must be dispatched with thunder to quickly exterminate it." β
"The Huazhou Yicheng Army should also be chaotic with it." Li Siyuan touched his beard and said.
Li Congjing was a little surprised, when the silver spear army sat in Huazhou, it was pacified by Li Congjing with a hundred battle army, and afterwards the Yicheng army sat in Huazhou, and the candidate for its festival was naturally determined by Li Siyuan, it stands to reason that the Yicheng army should be reliable, why is it that now that things have not yet come to a conclusion, Li Siyuan has such remarks?
Seeing Li Congjing's appearance, Li Siyuan asked him to come over and whisper to him.
Li Congjing listened to Li Siyuan's words and immediately realized.
Li Siyuan picked up the pu fan and slapped himself twice, because the weather was getting cooler, and he threw it aside after a while, "Luoyang's official rectification has been completed, because of the preparation in advance, the new officials who filled the official positions of the convicted officials have been put in place in time, and now all the departments of the imperial court have returned to normal order, of course, compared with before, the current officials are naturally much more capable, and it is appropriate to say that the weather is new." At this time, the measures for the next stage of the new policy should also be announced in Tianxia Prefecture and County, and they will be implemented. β
Li Congjing nodded, "This time the new policy is deepening, in addition to the inspection officials, the effective officials of the new policy that the imperial court previously rewarded should also take up key positions, especially for the prefectures and counties that have not implemented the new policy effectively, and their officials should be decisively replaced." β
Li Siyuan said: "This time, the forbidden army went east to pacify the chaotic feudal town, and the new government officials should accompany it, and every time the forbidden army pacified a feudal town, the officials of the feudal town were replaced, and the officials accompanying the court filled the vacancy. In this way, wherever the forbidden army goes, it will be where the new policy will be implemented, and the imperial court's removal of Shandong county officials will be quickly completed. β
This is the meaning of the title of the big blood exchange, Li Congjing naturally has no different opinions, "With the deterrence of the forbidden army and Shandong Prefecture and County as an example, all the provinces, towns, prefectures and counties in the world also know what to do. β
Li Siyuan finally said: "Spring Curtain Scholars, although they have entered the officialdom and are not very familiar with everything, but they are led by older officials, and they can also do things, and these scholars are always hot-blooded, not afraid of difficulties, and are most suitable for overcoming obstacles and competing with local old forces. β
Li Congjing naturally nodded yes.
After saying this, it is the turn of the guards to be the commander of the horse infantry army.
Li Siyuan was deeply saddened by Kang Yicheng's corruption and bribery and collusion with the Xuanwu Army to conspire against chaos.
Kang Yicheng has always been trusted and valued by him, which can be seen from the fact that after he reorganized the guards and pro-army, he took Kang Yicheng as the commander of the horse infantry army, but he never thought that he knew people's faces and hearts, but the result was that he used non-people, which made people uncomfortable.
In fact, in the process of rectifying the rule of officials in Luoyang, not only Kang Yicheng, an official trusted and valued by Li Siyuan, was punished. There is nothing incomprehensible about it, if it is not for the emperor's trust, high position, and dependence, how dare those officials behave recklessly?
Li Siyuan proposed that Li Congke take over as the commander of the guards, the pro-army, and the Ma Bu Army. In all fairness, there is no problem with this proposal, Li Congke is already the king of Lu, and he takes Kang Yicheng's class, both in terms of qualifications and prestige, and Li Congke has always wanted to serve in the forbidden army since he returned from Liangchuan, so he asked Li Siyuan a lot.
And Li Siyuan also intends to let those generals who are close to him take up important positions in the forbidden army, Gao Congzhou is a representative, and the other party was the general of the left shooting army, which is also a smooth thing.
- As for Shi Jingjiao, now he has gone to Xiazhou and fought with the party members.
Li Congjing also agreed.
In any case, Li Congke is a general, although he is not good at strategy, but his qualifications and prestige are all there, and he still has a set of rules for governing the army.
As for what will happen to Li Congke in the future, Li Congjing is not very worried - as long as he is there, what can Li Congke do? Isn't it obediently working for his country?
Subsequently, Li Congjing proposed that Li Yanchao be the deputy general of the guards - the previous deputy general, who was somewhat implicated in Kang Yicheng and had been demoted.
Li Siyuan did not disagree.
A few days later, Kong Xun arrived in Luoyang. Li Siyuan's punishment for his interception of the officials of the Criminal Department that day was neither light nor severe, and as for the dereliction of duty in the ineffective implementation of the new policy, he did not bring it up for the time being, because the Xuanwu Army had already openly suppressed the rebellion at this time.
Li Siyuan immediately issued an edict to reprimand the arrogance of the Xuanwu army, and ordered the six divisions to prepare for the army's eastward crusade.
This was the first major event encountered by the imperial court after the completion of the rectification of Luoyang's official rule, and the yamen of various ministries were naturally in full swing.
Subsequently, a new batch of decrees of the new policy was submitted by the Zhongshu Province, approved by the emperor, and after the examination and approval of the Menxia Province came into effect, it was sent to the prefectures and counties.
At the same time, the Hundred Battles Army was ordered to go east, and Kong Xun accompanied him to quell the rebellion of the Xuanwu Army.
On the day after the Hundred Battles Army arrived in Bianzhou, Yunzhou Tianping Jiedu made An Chongba and Qingzhou Lulong Military Academy Wang Gongyan successively embraced all the people in turmoil.
At this time, Li Congjing was still in Luoyang, and he had no intention of personally going eastward, and he looked like he was going to preside over the overall situation in Luoyang to the end, after all, he was about to become the crown prince, and he should be in charge of political affairs and the overall situation.
It's just that few people realize that Li Congke, who has just served as the commander of the guard's pro-army Ma Bujun, is no longer in Luoyang.
But it was said that Li Congrong, the king of Zhao, had already arrived in Jiangling at this time.
After Li Congrong arrived in Jiangling, he was not in a hurry to immediately enter Chu to fight, but waited for the envoys of Dengzhou Weisheng Jiedu, Xiangzhou Shannan Dongdao Jiedu envoys, and Anzhou Anyuan Jiedu envoys to arrive, and then held a military meeting in a hurry.
There are not many soldiers and horses brought by the envoys of the three towns, and the soldiers and horses of the envoys are about 3,000, which is of course because of the new policy of the imperial court - except for Xiangzhou, which is better, Dengzhou and Anzhou have never been big towns, and Yunzhou and Qingzhou cannot be compared, and there are not many soldiers and horses. As for Xiangzhou, it is not as important as before after the status of Gangneung has become more and more important.
In addition to hoarding grain, grass and ordnance in Jiangling over the years, Ma Huaiyuan mainly did one thing: shipbuilding.
Yang Wu sailors are strong, the world is dominant, this is an undoubted fact, the Tang Dynasty wants to compete with Yang Wu, whether it is along the Yangtze River east to Jinling, or gallop to the aid of Chu, and Yang Wu to compete for Changsha, the king of Chu on the Xiangjiang River, must rely on Lou boats.
Li Congrong likes the tall building boat very much, because he has been on the ship for three days and three nights and has not come down.
In the end, it was the deputy marshal Fu Xi who went to pull him out.
Gao Congzhou, Wang Si and others saw it, and they kept their heads shut and didn't say a word.
Ma Xiaodao pulled Ma Huaiyuan and blinked his eyes, "Our Royal Highness King Zhao, are we here to enjoy the mountains and rivers, or are we here to fight?" The excitement he felt when he saw the boat was even more powerful than the little lady I saw in the green building! I heard that he had never led troops to go on an expedition before, so didn't he use us to practice this time? β
Ma Huaiyuan glared at him, "Don't talk nonsense! β
Ma Huaiyuan followed the generals, and Ma Xiaodao pulled Zhou Xiaoquan and nagged: "Brother, it's not easy for our Jiangling family to save money, if he is defeated, who will we reason with when the time comes?" β
Zhou Xiaoquan, who was holding a horizontal knife with his arms around his chest, said nonchalantly: "How do I know." β
Ma Xiaodao glared, "You went to the Martial Arts Academy and stayed in Luoyang for a few years, and you haven't heard of who King Zhao is?" It can't be, right? Can this guy fight? β
Zhou Xiaoquan glanced at Ma Xiaodao and left, "I haven't heard of it." β
Ma Xiaodao looked at Zhou Xiaoquan's back and spat fiercely, "Mother's nerd!" β
Changsha Province.
Xu Zhihe heard that Li Congrong did not get off the boat for three days, and pondered.
Lin Renzhao, the commander of the guards in armor, pouted and said: "From this point of view, Li Congrong is very idle, and he doesn't take the war to heart like this, compared to his brother who can fight well, but it is far behind. β
Xu Zhihe glanced at Lin Renzhao, "Do you really think that Li Congrong doesn't take the war to heart?" β
"Isn't it?" Lin Renzhao said in surprise.
Xu Zhihe retracted his gaze, his eyes were deep, "If Li Congrong shouted and shouted to kill as soon as he arrived in Jiangling, then I really didn't take him seriously." β
Lin Renzhao's eyes rolled, "What Ming Gong means is that the situation on the battlefield in Chu is complicated, if Li Congrong rashly dispatches troops and urgently wants to participate in the war, it is a presumptuous move that does not know the depths, and he is now leisurely and comfortable, in fact, it is to give the Tang army time to understand the war situation in Chudi?" β
Xu Zhihe nodded slightly, "That's right." According to the news that came from Bian Ho after he arrived in Gangneung, Li Congrong was very attentive to the war along the way, rubbing shoulders and intending to do a big job. β
Lin Renzhao nodded suddenly, "It seems that if we don't fight with the Tang Army, the war will be a big war." β
Xu Zhihe bowed, "This is not bad." β
Late at night, Luoyang.
Wang Pu put down the brush, picked up the written document in front of him and looked at it from the beginning.
He came to the window, and the night sky was full of moons and stars.
I don't know how long he stood there, he muttered: "Shandong, Jianghuai." β
