Chapter 1218: Surveillance and Control

Yang Guang's forehead began to sweat, his eyes were also full of bloodshots, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Then I will make an order to increase the number of guards in the East Palace, and move the prince and the clan into the palace to live, I don't believe it, relying on Yang Xuangan's more than 1,000 families, I can turn the sky upside down!" ”

Wang Shichong sighed: "Your Majesty, of course his family can't do it, but if the series is successful and dozens of families are pulled together, it will be difficult to say, besides, the generals who lead the troops are mostly the children of the Guanlong family, what if Yang Xuangan infiltrates?" Didn't he just make the army guarding Daxing and the army outside the city stand still? ”

Yang Guang said hatefully: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, then I simply transferred Yang Xuangan to the army and took care of it by my side, so that he can't mess up." ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Yang Xuangan is a general, recruiting soldiers and not giving soldiers, the Guan Long family will have opinions, the reason why Your Majesty has not been able to use him is also because he is afraid that after he gets the army, it will be difficult to restrain him?" ”

Yang Guang sighed: "But I think it's better than letting him take care of Cangcheng, it's more reliable, in case he makes a rebellion in Cangcheng, opens a warehouse, recruits troops and scatters grain, and directly takes the eastern capital, then I will be in trouble." If the front-line army has no food, and hears that there are important ministers in the rear, the people will be panicked, and they will lose their ground, and they are afraid that it will be difficult for me to retreat from Zhuojun. ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Your Majesty is extremely worried, so Weichen is willing to do two things to share Your Majesty's worries." ”

Yang Guang's eyes lit up: "What should I do, Aiqing said quickly." ”

Wang Shichong said with a straight face: "This is the first one, it is the Cangcheng for Yang Xuangan, and there is no rice." Nor do they put ordnance. Only those are served. Canvas, wood and the like, so Yang Xuangan is anti-hearted, and he can't play the trick of opening a warehouse and putting rice, and he won't have any ready-made equipment for him, even if he is an immortal, it is unlikely that he will rebel with these things. ”

Yang Guang's brows softened a little: "This plan is very good, it is just the food, grass and ordnance that my army needs. If you don't go from his warehouse, where will you go? ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Your Majesty can let General Youxiaowei come to Hu'er and continue to fight at sea, while the grain, grass and ordnance transported from Jiangnan to the north will not go to the eastern capital, but directly go north into Juyeze and enter the Qilu ground. But it will not allow Yang Xuangan to obtain it as the capital of his rebellion. ”

Yang Guang laughed. Nodding his head, he said, "Yes, yes, Wang Aiqing, you and I have exactly the same idea, what about the second one?" ”

Wang Shichong said with a straight face: "This second article is about Weichen's own, and I also ask Your Majesty to secretly send your ministers back to the Eastern Capital, if Yang Xuangan really wants to raise an army to make a rebellion, the ministers will also swear to resist for Your Majesty in the Eastern Capital." ”

Yang Guang instinctively wanted to open his mouth to commend him, but suddenly thought of something, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he said coldly: "Wang Aiqing, are you so anxious to take charge of the military power of the Eastern Capital?" ”

Wang Shichong expected Yang Guang's suspicion before he spoke, in this faint king's heart, his vigilance against himself was no less than Yang Xuan's, and he took the initiative to seek military power, which must have been his taboo. But he also had a response to this, smiled slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, Wechen knows that Your Majesty's trust in Wechen cannot be complete, so in order to show Wechen's loyalty, Wechen is willing to let the whole family go on an expedition to Goguryeo with His Majesty to serve Your Majesty, and also to prove Wechen's loyalty!" ”

Yang Guang's brows frowned slightly: "Wang Aiqing, you don't have to be like this, your sons are still young and can't go into battle, I used to treat generals like Li Yuan and Lai Hu'er, but I just let their adult sons and nephews join the army, and let their wives and concubines be in Zhuo County in the rear, and they didn't take them to the front line." ”

Wang Shichong sighed: "Weichen was born in a lowly family, he has never married a wife, a few dogs, all of them were born to Weichen's concubines, but Weichen also has brothers and nephews, all of whom can serve His Majesty, Weichen is willing to follow His Majesty in the whole Wang family, and only Weichen will stay in the Eastern Capital, so that Weichen can also have no worries and can help His Majesty protect the national capital." ”

Wang Shichong said righteously and strictly, and even his voice trembled slightly, this set of words includes expressions, although he had practiced repeatedly before he came, but this recalled the death of his eldest brother back then, a burst of sadness came from his heart, and he really squeezed out a few tears, sincerely, even those deaf and dumb guards couldn't help but be moved, Wang Shichong wiped the tears on his face, and secretly admired his acting skills in his heart, it seems that he has greatly improved a piece, which is enough to be fake.

Yang Guang also made tears glean in Wang Shichong's fake Jingzhong, and kept nodding his head and said: "Okay, good, good, since Wang Aiqing is so loyal, all my doubts about you are too redundant, I will draft a decree to let you Wang Aiqing stay in the eastern capital, add the right guard general, command the soldiers and horses outside the city, and defend the eastern capital." ”

Wang Shichong hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, by all means. ”

Yang Guang said softly: "Why not?" Don't you want to stay in the Eastern Capital and share your worries? ”

Wang Shichong shook his head and said: "Weichen doesn't mean this, but that Weichen is not from a high background, and he has not held an important position in the army for many years. ”

Yang Guang laughed: "Wang Aiqing, you are too worried, you have been fighting in the south and the north for many years, and you are famous, this time in the battle of Goguryeo, you are famous again, I think no one will disobey you and listen to your dispatch." ”

Wang Shichong sighed: "Although the rebellion of Yang Xuangan or other noble children is only a small possibility, but Weichen must make all considerations, if His Majesty restrains Yang Xuangan so much, he can hit the eastern capital, then its soldiers are extremely sharp, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist by relying on the soldiers and horses on the fan, and when the time comes, a heavy minister will need to declare martial law in the whole city, and transfer the private soldiers of each family to the city to defend, and Weichen has always been despised by various families, this responsibility, Weichen can't afford it." ”

Yang Guang nodded: "Then according to what you see, who is better to stay?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Your Majesty needs two ruthless people to sit in the two capitals respectively, originally the former Dali Qing, Zhao Zhongqing of the Shangzhu State is very suitable, but he is already old and no longer has the courage of the year, so Weichen suggested that staying in the western capital can be given to Wei Xuan, the only one who retreated with the whole army in the last Goguryeo War, as for the eastern capital to stay behind, there is no more suitable person than Fan Zigai, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs!"
