Chapter 193: Zong Ze Zhang Assists the New Dynasty
Heroes, such as Xiang Yu, Liu Bang, and Sun Quan. It is the people who are born and help each other to create a world that belongs to them. Obviously, it was impossible for a flying immortal like Liu Xing to get the help of the Heavenly Dao in this space.
The most famous ones are naturally Zhu Wen and Zhu Quanzhong, the Later Liang Taizu who let the Tang Dynasty die. can achieve a temporary hegemony and destroy a dynasty, but it may not be able to really create a wholehearted world and build that new world steadily.
The traitor, the first person in ancient times is naturally second to none Cao Cao. A capable minister who rules the world, and a traitor in troubled times. If it weren't for the situation in front of him, Liu Xing would not have believed that he had the ability and ability to govern Wutai County, Hunter Valley and Koujiazhuang.
However, the knowledge and insight that transcended the times for thousands of years, and the somewhat chaotic and complicated book experience accumulated from reading all kinds of books in the past, made Wutai City at this time quickly change from a small county town of 20,000 people in the troubled times to the first county in the whole Hedong and even the world, with 40,000 registered households and a population of 250,000.
This is the most populous county in the world, and in the midst of this war, Liu Xing used the Juntian method and the commercial tax law as the basis, and the advanced technology in the process greatly improved productivity. Not only did it not become a chaotic phenomenon because too many foreign populations were gathered in the troubled times, but it showed a thriving scene by virtue of the trade routes that had not been completely cut off by the Jin soldiers.
There are 480 shops in Wutai City, 520 shops in Hunter Valley, and one county and two towns have quickly owned 300 workshops of various kinds, and even Koujiazhuang has now become the largest grain and grass trading and distribution center and horse black market in Hedong, so that the people of the two towns in this county are not only not short of clothes and clothing, but everyone has a job to do, every family has land to plant, and they do not worry about their livelihood and have a lot of surplus.
All this shows that the knowledge that used to be seen in books can still be formed and miraculous as long as it is adapted and applied to the governance of the world at this time.
wants to consolidate himself and lead a group of brothers to create this hard-won new world, Liu Xing only believes in that sentence: with the right to have soldiers and enough money, can he rule the world like a bull's ear. So as to protect the fruits of these victories to the greatest extent.
In order to protect the fruits of this victory, do you want to be a loyal servant like a teacher? No, because Zhao Zhen, the king of letters who has just ascended the throne, doesn't look like a capable and good emperor no matter how he looks at it, but more like a villain who inherited their Zhao family's villain behavior and is accustomed to unloading the mill and killing donkey traditions.
Count on Zhao Zhen to help him protect the fruits of this victory. That's a very happy idea, and once implemented, the reality will be very skinny.
Therefore, only by firmly following Cao Cao's example, so that the inheritance in the bones and the deep-rooted distrust of the generals in the blood, and the Zhao family, who emphasize literature and suppress martial arts, have all become sitting and enjoying the world, but they cannot control the situation. A new type of clan that can only represent the image of a dynasty at most.
I, Liu Xing, can only do what I want to do if I am a person who changes the inheritance and inheritance of the feudal system, and only who can firmly grasp the military and political power in my lifetime......
It was with this idea in mind that when the night battle was publicized and the silver blocking technique could be outside the walls of the Wynn prison wall.
In Wutai City, Liu Xing forced the new monarch Zhao Zhen to issue a series of edicts of the new emperor.
In the first edict, Liu Xing was the new cabinet chief auxiliary minister of the Great Song Dynasty, the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, the governor of the Heavenly Council and the envoy of the Hedong and Hebei Road systems, and was officially canonized as a Taifu. The power and responsibility of the world's soldiers and horses, the power of government affairs, responsible for the establishment of new laws, the establishment of a new dynasty, the power to lead all parties willing to submit to the king of the Great Song Dynasty military and political officials, as well as all kinds of soldiers and horses to mediate affairs.
In the second edict, Zhao Zhen directly added: "All the rights and rewards of officials above the seventh grade in the world have been planned by Mrs. Liu in advance. I'll leave it to me to decide. All matters concerning the deployment of troops and horses from all walks of life are handled by Marshal Liu with full authority, and I only make the final decision. All matters of money and grain, civil affairs, and industrial construction were approved by the cabinet under the leadership of Liu Shoufu, and then implemented by me by issuing an edict. If there is any objection, it will be regarded as a rebellion and shall not be slandered. ”
If Zhao Zhen's first order gave Liu Xing a series of exclusive military and political authorizations that were legal and compliant in terms of royal road and national law, it was not an unacceptable thing for the old ministers of the Huiqin Second Emperor era who had decided to choose to defect to Zhao Zhen in the two new emperors in Hedong, Hebei, Jingdong, Jingxi and Bashu.
After all, in the past few months, if there was no Liu Xing and the Red Turban Army in Hedong, there would have been no battle of Shiyi Town that Liu Xing took the lead instigating.
Not to mention that Zhao Zhen was rescued, I am afraid that the entire Great Song Dynasty is still sluggish and complaining. It is simply impossible to have the strong fighting spirit of the rebels from all over the country at this time, rekindling their fighting spirit to "follow Marshal Liu to drive the golden dog out".
Those who have made great achievements have been awarded so many titles and rights by the new monarch at one time, and they are well deserved and deserved in the eyes of the old ministers in other places.
But as soon as Zhao Zhen's second order was issued, some people immediately expressed dissatisfaction! The first one was unconvinced. It was Han Shizhong, who also incorporated the remnants of Jingdong on Jingdong West Road and nominally accepted the canonization of King Kang Zhao Gou, but secretly sent people to Wutai County to meet Zhao Zhen, and Liu Guangshi, who had 100,000 troops and was sitting in Jeju.
As soon as Han Shizhong learned that Zhao Zhen had handed over all the matters that had been decided by the emperor himself to the future cabinet headed by Liu Xing, he was the first to issue a document scolding Liu Xing for being the current Mengde, and immediately urgently recruited back his secret envoy who was secretly sent to Wutai. In the evening of the same day, he openly announced that he would "swear to protect King Kang's succession." Never attached to Zhao Zhen".
coincided with Han Shizhong, Liu Guangshi was also in the original wait-and-see, realizing that he would be led by a doll prime minister who was only in his early twenties, and that doll prime minister directly appeared in the phenomenon of Cao Cao's power emperor of the Three Kingdoms, and immediately issued a document to denounce Liu Xing.
On the night of the day the message was issued, Liu Guangshi sent 20,000 troops, looked for the back of the Jin Bing Jingdong Third Road Army, and marched straight to Hebei. In his inscription, he directly shouted the slogan of "Eliminate the puppet emperor and kill Liu Xing......
If someone opposes any edict, someone will naturally approve it. In fact, when Zhao Zhen issued the second order, Liu Xing didn't care at all about how Han Shizhong, who was brave and scheming, and Liu Guangshi, who was afraid of Jin Bing, would react.
Although I don't want to fight in the same room, if someone jumps out and dares to oppose me, prevent me from using power to ensure the fruits of victory. Even if he were my own brother, I would have made him run away with his head and the king's life.
This is Liu Xing's idea, with this idea, after learning that Han Shizhong and Liu Guangshi openly issued a message. Liu Xing immediately ordered Zeng Weijie to take 2,000 fresh troops, 8,000 patrol troops, 10,000 transport troops, and send 20,000 troops to directly seize three important passes leading from Hedong to Wutai.
As long as Liu Guangshi really dared to come to Wutai Mountain, Liu Xing firmly believed that with these two thousand fresh troops and 18,000 auxiliary soldiers, it would be enough to wipe out all the hundreds of thousands of people in Liu Guangshi's hands in the land of Sanguan.
While seizing the three passes, Liu Xing did not forget the important people who could really affect the overall situation, that is, the old handsome Zong Ze and Zhang Suo, who had bypassed Zhending Mansion and were rushing towards Wutai Mountain by the Pingding Army.
Marshal Zong's bravery, resourcefulness, and character are all things that Liu Xing has always appreciated and admired. Therefore, after Liu Xing sent troops to choke the three passes, he immediately asked Zhao Zhen to issue the third imperial order.
With this imperial decree, Zong Ze was officially appointed as the deputy assistant of the cabinet, the deputy marshal of the soldiers and horses, the governor of the Privy Council, the co-governor of the Heavenly Privy Council, and the envoy of the Gyeonggi Jingxi system, and was canonized as the imperial master.
At the same time, another edict was sent directly to Zhang, appointing him as the deputy assistant of the cabinet, the Taibao, and the privy secretary to lead the envoy of the Jingdong and Hebei systems.
Although there was no deputy marshal of soldiers and horses in the appointment of Zhang Suo, Liu Xing believed that it was only he who gave Zhang Suo the title of Taibao, the right of secondary auxiliary, and the overall military and political management of the four roads in Jingdong and Hebei, and that Zhang Xian's Lord Lingzun had no reason to oppose him again.
High-ranking officials and two elders who share power. At the same time as Liu Xing made these moves, Zhao Zhen immediately quickly determined in the fourth order that Wang Gao, Ye Mengde, Ma Kuo, and the four of the monks who were in a coma would enter the Heavenly Council at the same time, and become the counselors of the Heavenly Council who could make national laws and agree on all military and political affairs in the world in the future.
And let Zhao Ding, Chen Kangbo, Hu Yin, Ouyang Xun, who came with Ma Kuo with an empty name edict, and fled into Wutai with the refugees, and once suggested that Zhang Bangchang be deposed, Tong Guan was killed, and Yang Shi, who advocated anti-Jin and had the allusion of "Chengmen Lixue", entered the cabinet together and became the sixth Shangshu......
And so, just before dawn the next day. Liu Guangshi's army had not yet approached the banks of the Yellow River, and Han Shizhong was still gathering and scattering the remnants of the defeated army in various parts of Jingdong.
Walking to Zhang Suo in the southern suburbs of Yuxian County and Zong Ze, who was already close to Wutai City, these two veteran ministers who had the most combat power and the largest number of commanders at this time officially announced that they believed in the king's edict and were willing to help Liu Taifu and assist Xinjun to drive out the golden dog and restore the Central Plains.
The second elder openly supported Liu Xing, and when Zhang Yang led the Black Flag Army to launch a comprehensive counterattack against the more than 20,000 gold soldiers left in the north of Yongli Prison.
Most of the people in Hedong and Hebei were still waiting and watching, and they had not yet made it clear which new king was the king and the king of Kang.
For a time, in just three days, the entire Hedong and Hebei quickly became the subordinates of the Wutai New Dynasty and were put into the banner of Liu Xing.
In this good situation, Liu Xing was not idle. After learning that Zhang Yang took the Black Flag Army, it took him one day to directly drive Yinshu Ke and the remnants of the 10,000 Jin Army into Taiyuan City like ducks and become a turtle with a shrunken head.
Liu Xing immediately dispatched Yang Yizhong with 2,000 fresh troops, 3,000 patrol soldiers, and 10,000 transport troops to launch a new round of siege and disturbance battles towards Xinzhou City. (To be continued.) )
