Chapter 32: Wu Hook Finally Laughs at Feng Tang (16)
[Sorry, a little late.] γ
"Why not?!"
"The establishment of the Qinfeng Transshipment Division is clearly intended for Hehuang. Hengshan was defeated, and Huanqing mutinied. Let's ask Guanzhong how to plan Hehuang again because of the distress in the front because of the siege of Luowu, and the disturbance of Huanqing soldiers in the back. β
Wen Yanbo directly made his words clear, and now that he is at a disadvantage, he can't allow him to play tricks on his speaking skills.
"Wen Qing misunderstood, Qin Feng's transfer division can indeed help Hehuang's affairs, but Qin Feng and Jingyuan's border forts have benefited more. What's more, even if the Qin Feng Transshipment Division is established, it will take a long time to help Hehuang. I don't want the people to suffer, and I don't rush it. β
"If there is something good at the top, it will be effective at the bottom, seeing that the imperial court ordered the establishment of the Qin Feng Transfer Division, who can understand the painstaking work of the official family who does not want the people to suffer? How can you not be self-righteous to cater to your wishes? Once the Qinfeng Transshipment Division is established, there will inevitably be endless wars on the edge of Qinzhou! β
Wen Yanbo did not tactfully push back Zhao Ji's words at all, ignoring Zhao Ji's defense.
In fact, with Wen Yanbo's thoughts, he didn't intend to be so provocative about the Son of Heaven, although he was a veteran minister, he didn't have to worry about what this little thing could do to him. But if you can't get along with the Son of Heaven, it is equivalent to walking on the tip of a knife, it doesn't matter once or twice, but sooner or later one day it will be planted, which is not a good thing. It's just that the current situation was ruined by Han Jiang, who was far away in Shaanxi and had just stepped down, so that Wen Yanbo had no choice.
Even now, Wen Yanbo still wonders how Han Jiang's recital is completely different from the past.
Han Jiang has never been a strict person, and the chapters he writes are never a list of outlines. The all-encompassing and tireless narration is clearly a method of writing official documents, and almost no one uses them in the recitals of the courtiers who are elected by the high literary ranksβthe recitals and the official documents issued are also stylistically different things.
And when Han Jiang has been confirmed to be resigned and transferred, it is normal to apologize to the thank you table, and at the same time thank the Son of Heaven for his tolerance and kindness, instead of writing to clean up the mess for himself, this is Guo Kui's job, and it is not in line with Han Jiang's character.
Wen Yanbo suddenly woke up, did Han Jiang change his staff? Together with letting Wang Zhongzheng go to the rebels to send him to death and wash away his involvement, this is clearly the way the generals and commanders of the army deal with subordinates who want to kill but are inconvenient to kill, Han Jiang has not brought soldiers a few times in the past, how can he use it so skillfully?
Zhao Ji faintly had a little temper, Wen Yanbo really didn't give him face: "Qin Fengyuan's pacification division, whether it is a general or a strategist, it is a temporary choice." has won many victories before, and the merits are not under the Hengshan. Even if the battle end is opened, there will be good news coming back. β
"Isn't there a series of great victories in Hengshan, but it's not in vain?"
"Seed and Zhang Yu are not defeated! Luo Wucheng is a great victory! β
Zhao Ji emphasized that he had seen the strength of the Great Song army in Luowu City. It can be said that since Zhao Ji ascended the throne, the Song army has hardly suffered losses on the battlefield. As long as the coach is not guilty, he can protect himself at worst. If there is a talented general, such as Chong Ge, such as Wang Shao, Zhang Yu, Gao Yongneng, and Yan Da, as long as they make a move, the result will be a great victory.
The good news is so easy, how can it not make Zhao Ji, who has been thinking about destroying the Western Thief and recovering Yanyun, anxious to see a phased result. But with such a strong army, but he couldn't get his wish in the end, how could Zhao Ji not regret sending the wrong person?
"Originally, there was no need to evacuate Luo Wu!" Again, he emphasized.
"It is imperative to withdraw to Luowu. Since ancient times, there has never been internal strife in the country, and the general can make contributions to the outside. Wen Yanbo didn't say the next words explicitly, but his sharp eyes were questioning. Isn't this the will of His Majesty?
"I am in Beijing, and the West is unknown. If Han Jiang had Guo Kui's courage and my will, he could completely push it away. I gave him the right to do things cheaply! How can you let a Lang Zhong take power?! Zhao Ji has a little resentment towards Han Jiang, but it is more Zhao Zhan, why work so hard.
I asked you to pass on the edict, let you be in the military, did I let you meddle in military affairs?
Zhao Ji completely forgot the days when he couldn't sleep for several nights before the news came that the official army besieged the rebels in Xianyang City; And the night when he finally fell asleep soundly after the news came.
With no certainty that Luo Wucheng would be able to withstand Liang Yi's army, coupled with Wu Kui's rebellion, Zhao and the two prefectures could only choose to withdraw their troops. Who can guarantee that there will not be a second Wu Kui in the back. But after withdrawing, taking a look at the harvest again, it is not only Zhao Ji and Han Jiang who regret this decision. And the one who is angry with Zhao Zhan because of regret is definitely Zhao Ji.
In Zhao Zhan's words, it was obvious that he was very unkind to Zhao Zhan, Wen Yan knew that Lu Dao could not promote such thoughts, so he immediately asked: "Zhao Zhan is loyal to his duties and abides by the king's orders, and the minister doesn't know what is wrong with him?" Is it the fault of besieging the rebels in Xianyang? Or did you read out the edict to abandon Luo Wucheng?! β
Regarding Wen Yanbo's toughness, Zhao Ji had a stomach of refuge. But the identity of the emperor made it inconvenient for his subordinates to argue, and it would be unseemly to do so. It's just that the words of rebuttal can't be spoken, and Zhao Ji feels uncomfortable. I knew that Lu Dao called Wang Anshi together, or Zeng Bu and Zhang Dun, who were eloquent, could also do it.
When the two monarchs and ministers are one-on-one, it is often the Son of Heaven who suffers. And even if he is sprayed with saliva all over his face by the courtiers, he must accept it with an open mind, otherwise he will be charged with refusing to admonish. Since Zhenzong, none of the emperors can be strong in front of the ministers who are accustomed to losing their temper.
made the Son of Heaven have nothing to say, which reflects the ability of the old ministers, and easily reversed the situation. It's just that Wen Yanbo still wants to take advantage of the victory to pursue and make Zhao Ji give up the idea of setting up Qin Fenglu.
"Zhao Zhan acted strictly and steadily, and was conscientious and conscientious about the king's life. If you succeed in a fluke, you will think that you will succeed, and you will think about acting by luck in the future, hoping to ascend to the sky in one step. Today's setback, is there no culpability? β
"There is no fault in planting!"
Zhao Ji is very determined to protect the seeds. The three armies are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find. There are handsome talents like Chong Ge, Zhang Yu and Gao Yongneng, Zhao Ji is too late to protect them, how can they be punished, "This time, the blame is not on them." β
Even if the Hedong army was ambushed, the Luowu defense line was torn through a big hole, but with the efforts of Chong Ge and his generals, Luowu City was still stable. If it hadn't been for the Gyeongju Mutiny, the situation would never have been like this.
"The mistake of planting may be debatable, but Han Jiang's charge of improper employment is something he can't get rid of."
"Wang Wenliang is dead...... Die! β
In the case that Wang Wenliang has been killed in battle, in fact, the charge of forcing the Guangrui Army to rebel is no longer planted on anyone's head. No matter how many mistakes Wang Wenliang made, whether he forced Wu Kui or not, because he was loyal and loyal to the point of dying for the country, just the word 'loyal and brave', Han Jiang's trust in Wang Wenliang could not be regarded as a mistake.
Now in Zhao Ji's mind, the failure of the Hengshan Raiders, in addition to Wu Kui's disaster to the country, is Zhao Zhan's bad thing, and Han Jiang is just bearing a little insignificant responsibility. Moreover, Han Jiang's disposition has already been decided, and Wen Yanbo is now mentioning this matter again, I don't know what he is thinking.
Through some related people and things, he slowly builds momentum from the side, and when the momentum starts, he goes straight to the point, which is a common means used by Wen Yanbo. The conversation just now is a clear proof of Wen Yanbo's methods, but it was blocked by Han Jiang's recital. But now that Zhao Ji is watching Wen Yanbo speak, it is clear that he is returning to his old tricks.
"No one has ever done it, everyone has merit, but the war is self-defeating. I don't know if a mere Wu Kui can be charged with these crimes? The army's spirit is unstable, how can it be ignored? β¦β¦ The minister asked His Majesty to suspend the army and stop fighting, and return the people of Shaanxi to be clean for several years! Wen Yanbo fell to his knees and begged Zhao Ji earnestly.
Zhao Ji hurriedly asked the old minister to get up. Seeing that Wen Yanbo was so fiercely opposed, it seemed that it was very likely that he would threaten the county minister, and Zhao Ji couldn't make a decision for a while. He needed an old and important minister to sit in the court. Besides, the Khitans had recently intervened between the Song and Xia countries, and Zhao Ji knew that he needed a privy envoy with strong knowledge of soldiers, not a ruler who had not experienced battles.
In order to maintain the balance of power in the court, Zhao Ji had to choose Wen Yanbo. Even if the Qin Feng Transfer Division can be set up in a short period of time, the help for Hehuang will not be until after the summer harvest in June. In that case, it is not too late to bring up the matter in two months.
Zhao Ji was still puzzled.
Why did Wen Yanbo oppose the establishment of the Qin Feng Transfer Division so much, because he was afraid that he would not be able to make meritorious contributions there? But it shouldn't be so urgent, no matter which one is to produce results, it will definitely take time.
The establishment of the Qinfeng Transshipment Division is the first division of money and grain. Dividing the Shaanxi transshipment route into two is of great benefit to the matter of Hehuang. However, to clearly divide a series of rights and responsibilities such as zoning, revenue and expenditure, etc., is as troublesome as dividing the family of brothers.
And after Guo Kui was reappointed to Chang'an, who will serve as the next governor of Qinzhou who is also the envoy of Qin Feng? This is also something that needs to be taken into account - no matter what, it must be a candidate who supports Hehuang Kaibian, and he is not ambitious, and he has no idea of competing with Wang Shao for power......
Plus the new Qin Feng Transit Envoy? To whom should it be assigned? ββZhao Ji is going to conduct an investigation first, and if he wants to get the results after the most difficult time, he will have to wait a few months.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ji couldn't help but have a headache, the choice of personnel has always been a problem that plagues all civil and military officials. Relatively speaking, it is still an easy job. The rewards given to the many generals and colonels who participated in the battle have now been preliminarily decided. In the case of the final defeat, Zhao Ji still tried to give them the most rewards. When Wang Zhongzheng and Zhao Zhan returned, after referring to their reports, they could determine the final result.
Anyway, Zhao Ji has always been very generous.
