Section 514 Zhang Tang's Ambition

Although he had been to the Conservatory Hall many times, Zhang Tang still followed the royal road to the palace step by step as if he had come to the heart of the empire for the first time.

"Your Majesty ......" Zhang Tang bowed slightly.

As a minister of the Son of Heaven's palace and a confidant, Zhang Tang has long been allowed to pay homage without a large court.

"Zhang Qing is here...... Liu Che raised his head from the case, smiled slightly, and ordered: "Give Zhang County a seat!" ”

Waiting until Zhang Tang sat down, Liu Che said: "This time I summoned Qing to inform Aiqing, Xinfeng County, Aiqing is ready to hand over the work, I am to Qing, and there is another appointment!" ”

Even if there is nothing to be done by Zhang Tang, Zhang Tang, the official, must be promoted.

Ji Di became Shang Shuling, Yan Yi became Prime Minister Shi Cheng, and Zhang Tang's official position was not promoted again, which made the world see it, doesn't it mean that it is better to be a fool of the officer?

In this world, heroes are probably going to sharpen their heads and delve into those noble positions.

The elites have gone to talk about it, and the matter is handed over to the middle and lower class people, isn't this nonsense?

So, this soup must be promoted!

"I plan to let Aiqing go to Nanyang County and serve as the county guard of Nanyang County, Ning Cheng is a native of Nanyang and is familiar with the local situation, Qing will also bring him with him, clean up Nanyang County, and the Imperial Doctor, Shaofu and Tingwei will all assist Qing!" Liu Che said to Zhang Tang.

For Zhang Tang, Liu Che no longer needs to explain anything.

Zhang Tang's cleverness and alertness, even in the entire imperial court, are rare.

What he did in Xinfeng County this year, Liu Che also saw it in his eyes and knew it. He's already on his own.

But, that's not enough!

Liu Che has high expectations for Zhang Tang!

It's the darkness and the difference. In Liu Che's view, the future is not as good as Zhang Tang.

Appointed as the county warden of Nanyang County. Although somewhat adventurous.

But Zhenjin is not afraid of fire refining, and the greater the pressure on a character like Zhang Tang, the greater his ability to burst out.

Liu Che remembers clearly that in history, before Zhang Tang died, he pulled all his enemies to his back, and by the way, he paved the Qingyun Road for his son.

Such means and decisiveness have been found throughout Chinese history. I can't find a few either.

"No!" When Zhang Tang heard this, he was slightly startled.

"What happened in Nanyang County?" Zhang Tang pondered in his heart: "Your Majesty has to send me, and you have to bring Ning Cheng, the Imperial Doctor, the Shaofu, and the Tingwei Yamen to be my backup......"

Historically, the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty sent his henchmen to Kanto, which can only show one thing, the Son of Heaven has no patience with the local officialdom and local tyrants.

It's not safe to send anyone else. Only when cronies go can they ensure that the situation is controlled.

Something like this has only happened a few times in the history of the Han Dynasty.

Most of them took place in the Later Lu period, in order to deal with the unruly local forces in Qilu.

After Taizong came to power. The regulation of the Kanto region was relaxed, until now.

Zhang Tang pondered slightly in his heart for a moment, but he also understood Liu Che's distress.

Nanyang that place. Although Zhang Tang has never been there, but. Ning Cheng talked to him about many stories of Nanyang.

Nanyang County is located south of Funiu Mountain and north of Hanshui. Since ancient times, it has been the land of China's anointing.

During the Warring States period, Nanyang's commerce was already very developed.

After Qin unified the world, the 'relocation of the unscrupulous people of the six countries' to Nanyang intensified the local business atmosphere.

What do you mean by an unscrupulous people?

In the Qin Dynasty, which was dominated by Legalism, merchants were unscrupulous people!

Until now, Nanyang is almost the world of merchants.

There are a large number of handicraft workshops, iron smelting and forging workshops in the 35 counties of the county.

The ironware, cloth, and coins produced in Nanyang are sold all over the world.

And the development of industry and commerce brought wealth, but also death and disaster.

Judging from what Ning Cheng said, in Nanyang, I am afraid that the businessmen and heroes have already corrupted the entire bureaucratic system from top to small by using money.

Going to Nanyang this time, Zhang Tang felt that he might have to prepare for the worst.

So, he bowed respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, please ask Your Majesty to give the minister the right to act cheaply, and then order Yu Linwei to dispatch a team of troops to go with the minister!" ”

If what Ning Cheng said was true, the bureaucratic system of the entire 35 counties of Nanyang County had been corrupted by local tyrants and businessmen.

Then, Zhang Tang felt that if he wanted to complete his mission, he must master an absolutely trustworthy elite armed force.

In this way, even if the worst happens, he Zhang Tang can forcibly reverse it.

When Liu Che heard this, he nodded with satisfaction.

This is what doing practical things should look like!

As a county guard in the Han family, he can't kill people, he doesn't dare to kill people, he can't govern the place well, and let those businessmen and officials who are full of money be honest.

Moreover, when the county guard took office, he would have brought a central army to his post.

It is not only the background of announcing the new county guard to the whole county, but also the guarantee to prevent some guys from jumping over the wall.

"I'll give Qing two teams!" Liu Che stood up and said.

One team rate, but more than 100 people, is far from enough!

And how strict Nanyang's problem is, Liu Che himself knows it.

Looking at the counties below Nanyang County, you can know that Zhang Tang went this time, if he couldn't hold down the field, there would be a big problem.

You must know that the number of households and population density in Nanyang are second only to Guanzhong!

Otherwise, the little pig would not have sealed Huo Quzhi and Zhang Qian in Nanyang!

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Tang hurriedly bowed.

The team rate of the two Yulin Guards is nearly three hundred elites.

This reassured Zhang Tang in his heart.

More importantly, the statement of the Son of Heaven made Zhang Tang see his bright future.

Yu Linwei, this is the armed forces of the Son of Heaven, taking such a troop to the place is equivalent to telling the world, and his Zhang Tang's backer is the Son of Heaven!

Moreover, the elite of Yu Linwei is recognized throughout Guanzhong.

In the Han family system, it is extremely difficult for Buyi to rank among the three dukes.

Unless you can make military achievements and be named a liege, there is a slight possibility.

And Zhang Tang is from Buyi, if he wants to become a member of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries in the future, from now on, he has to find a way to experience his military command skills.

With Yu Linwei going to Nanyang together, then he Zhang Tang can take the opportunity to train an elite, and then in the future, command this army, establish meritorious deeds, and pay homage to the prime minister.

As far as Zhang Tang knows, it's not just him.

Now, Ji Di and Yan Yi are also seeking to decentralize the locality, take up official positions such as county lieutenants and county guards, and seek opportunities to turn into military generals -- the boundaries between civil and military affairs in the Han dynasty are very blurred, and when the county guards and county captains encounter wars, as long as there is an edict from the Son of Heaven, they can hang the general's seal and go out to fight at any time, and then establish meritorious service in the war and receive the title of marquis.

This road is also the path that most of the important ministers of the Han family have walked in the past 60 years.

For example, the current prime minister Zhou Yafu was turned into a military general from the county guard of Hedong County. (To be continued......)
