Chapter 423: The Wind Will Rise
The next day, Liu Han was called by the military marquis Madden, who handed over Yang Hui's military order to him, and asked him to take his soldiers to Duzhicao to report to the king of Yanping County and listen to the orders of the king of Yanping. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"My lord, how long will it take to go to the humble position?" Liu Han took the military order and looked at it, there was no time limit on it.
"When the prince asks you to come back, you will come back with your brothers. Madden smiled, his attitude towards Liu Han was very gentle, and he didn't have the boss at all: "Brother, how did the prince know about you, he actually handed over this fat difference to you, do you know how many brothers are red-eyed." β
"Fat difference?" Liu Han looked at Madden in confusion, and shook his head with a wry smile: "My lord, this is not a fat difference, if you don't pay attention to it, you will either kill your head or fill the army." β
"Brother is too worried, killing the head and filling the army is all a matter of big shots," Madden said with a smile: "That round of getting our next errand, at most it will be a loss for the future, man, will you worry about the future?"
Madden said with a smile that everyone understands, Liu Han couldn't help but smile bitterly, didn't explain much, received the military order, Madden sent him out all the way, and broke up at the door of the military tent.
"My lord, why are you so polite to him, isn't it just a small team?!" asked the soldier on the side, puzzled.
Madden shook his head lightly, turned around and went back to the room without explanation, to be honest, when he first knew, he couldn't believe that a top-grade grandmaster was actually under him, which was simply beyond his understanding.
The top-grade grandmaster, don't let the gate valve family supply it, don't go to the inner court to supply it, and run the forbidden army to be a small team!!???
What is this for!Play me!!
How can I command him! Isn't this bullying!
Madden was very aggrieved at first, very depressed and aggrieved, but later after being pointed out, his heart passed.
During this time, he secretly showed favor to Liu Han, including giving him a holiday, reporting to his boss, etc., and then observing Liu Han's reaction, the result made him very satisfied, Liu Han never deliberately made things difficult for Ye Li, and the management of the soldiers below was also in order, without the slightest distortion, which reluctantly reassured him.
Today, Liu Han was still respectful in front of him, which made him very satisfied, and he made an exception and said a lot of sincere things.
Officers in the forbidden army, especially those above the rank of military marquis, who do not have a background background? Otherwise, it is impossible to rise to the ranks.
After Liu Han returned, he gathered all the officers and soldiers, and after announcing the military order, he asked the soldiers to disband, leaving the officers above the rank of captain to hold a meeting in his room.
"The military order has been announced, but there are some things I want to make clear to you. Liu Han's expression was serious, and his eyes were blazing at everyone.
"The imperial court decided to recover the arrears of the treasury, let us assist, some people say that this is a fat difference, I also admit that this is a fat difference, but there are some things, you may not know, the officials to be recovered this time are all members of the imperial court, Shang Shutai ministers, royal vassal kings, all of them are high-ranking officials of the second, third and fourth grades, so no matter what happens in the future, including taking people and copying homes, you should be careful, when taking people, be polite, have a better attitude, when raiding your home, be careful, don't harass your daughters, don't swallow other people's things at will. β
"My lord, we are good at it, and we know the rules inside. Cheng Jia smiled disappreciatively.
"Lao Cheng, don't be careless, these officials can't fall, and they said that even if they fall, most of them are from the family of the gate lords, and there are those relatives and friends in the court, we don't know, Lao Cheng, don't blame me for not reminding you, when the time comes, as soon as people fight back, we don't know if we can return to the forbidden army." β
"Is it so mysterious? Peng Yu asked cautiously.
Liu Han smiled bitterly: "Benefits, benefits, advantages and harms, only see the benefits, not the harm, such people die quickly, I don't want everyone to go to the desert to face the fast sabers and arrows of the Hu people, or there are a few fewer brothers in the team." β
Everyone's hearts were cold, and even Cheng Jia didn't dare to say anything, and they all bowed down to receive the order.
"Make it clear to the brethren and make the stakes clear, and the brethren are not fools and will understand. β
"Yes, sir. β
"Cheng Jia, Peng Yu, you two go with me to Duzhi Cao and report to the king of Yanping County. β
"Yes!"
Everyone agreed in unison and left, while Cheng Jia and Peng Yu stayed.
Liu Han looked the two of them up and down, sorted out their clothes, and then took the two of them out, and the three of them rode to Duzhicao.
Duzhicao was not too far from the military camp, and he arrived through a few streets, and the king of Yanping had already received the emperor's approval, and had already ordered people to wait at the door, and when he saw the three of them, he took them in.
"As soon as I received the official letter from Shang Shutai, you have arrived, Brother Liu, please come in. β
The king of Yanping County was very happy to see Liu Han, and hurriedly ordered someone to serve tea, as Duzhi Cao Shangshu, he had an independent office room, and in addition to the small servants in Duzhi Cao, there were three people from the palace who served in this room.
"Lord Wang, the last general has been ordered to listen to your dispatch and ask the prince to assign tasks. Liu Han first saluted the king of Yanping County, and at the same time took out the military order and handed it to the king of Yanping County for inspection, and the king of Yanping County took it over and looked at it carefully and handed it back to Liu Han.
This action cannot be ambiguous, according to the military regulations of the Great Jin Dynasty and the imperial court system, only the emperor and the imperial lieutenant have the right to mobilize the army, and others have no order to mobilize or command the army, which is equivalent to complicity in rebellion. Like Liu Han, who came by order, he had to first hand over the military order to the king of Yanping County for inspection, and after the king of Yanping County inspected it, he had to return it to Liu Han, and the king of Yanping County had an official document from the imperial court, so that no matter which party came to check, there was a certificate.
"Lord Wang, I didn't bring the troops over, so I came over first to listen to the arrangements of the adults. Liu Han said seriously.
"Brother Liu, don't do this, the order has also been checked, sit down first, let's discuss, two, you go to the side to drink tea first, take this first, and add some food money to the brothers. The king of Yanping said and stuffed a silver ticket in Cheng Jia's hand, Cheng Jia hesitated and glanced at Liu Han, Liu Han nodded slightly, and Cheng Jia accepted it with a happy face.
"Cai An, take the two generals to the wing room for tea. A capable young man next to the king of Yanping County commanded that Cai An was the son of the king of Yanping County, and his parents were slaves of the king of Yanping County, and he was one of the three subordinates he brought to Duzhicao.
After Cai An took Cheng Jia and Peng Yu out, Liu Han relaxed, and looked around the room, this room is very simple, from the inside to the outside, there is a moon door made of flower architecture in the middle, dividing a room into two parts, inside is the office of the king of Yanping, and outside is a round table, which should be a place for meetings and consultations and reception of visitors.
Liu Han and the King of Yanping County sat opposite each other, and the King of Yanping County went straight to the topic: "Collecting the arrears of the treasury, this matter is simple and simple to say, but it is difficult to do, Brother Liu, I want to ask you to help me." β
"It's all about the imperial court, look at what the prince said," Liu Han smiled and said, "Lord, my army has fifty people, when will you call them over?"
The king of Yanping County was about to speak, but Liu Han asked again: "Also, after my troops come, do you live in Duzhicao or something else, and eat three meals there in the morning, noon and evening, these problems must be solved." β
"The problem of living, Du Zhicao definitely can't solve it, let's live in the barracks, I have asked people to sort out a few empty houses, usually your soldiers are resting there, and they still have to go back to the barracks at night, anyway, it's not far, noon and dinner, we are responsible for Du Zhicao, in addition, I applied to the imperial court, during the recovery period, your soldiers have a monthly subsidy of five taels of silver, the chief of the army has eight taels, and the chief has twelve taels, you don't. β
The king of Yanping smiled at Liu Han, Liu Han shook his head helplessly, and then nodded, the benefits announced by the king of Yanping are already very high, and it is estimated how much effort he has put in front of Gantang Pan Chain and even the emperor for these benefits.
"On behalf of the brothers, I thank the king. Liu Han thanked the king of Yanping County.
"Your people don't need to come here for the time being, we still need to negotiate a charter," said the king of Yanping, "I want to hear your thoughts first." β
Liu Han replied with a slight contemplation: "Lord Wang, I don't know the specific situation, can you show me what names are on the list." β
The king of Yanping got up and went in, took a piece of tissue paper and put it in front of Liu Han, Liu Han looked at the paper: "This is the full list?"
"Yes, the whole list. The king of Yanping sat down next to Liu Han and brought his teacup.
Liu Han looked at the list, this list is arranged according to the amount of arrears, the top is Xiao Zhao Wangye, Pan Lian Xue Mi, there are a lot of them, it can be seen that this is a real list.
"How can there be Ding Xuan!" Liu Han was a little puzzled: "This guy is also short of money, he actually borrowed 56,000 taels, and Cui Jun, he also has more than 20,000 taels, these two people often fight for wealth, and they are still short of money?!!!
"When this king got this list, he was also surprised, Ding Xuan and Cui Jun actually borrowed money from the imperial treasury ,..." The king of Yanping County shook his head with a wry smile, the most from the imperial treasury are these important ministers of the imperial court and the family of gate lords, and the total amount they account for reaches eighty percent.
Liu Han asked, "Does the emperor know about this list?"
The king of Yanping shook his head, and Liu Han thought about it for a while and smiled: "If that's the case, then start with Pan Lian and Xue Mi, Lord Wang, what do you think?"
"Pan Lian?Xue Mi?" King Yanping pondered for a moment, then asked with a smile, "Why?"
"Kill monkeys and make an example!" Liu Han said lightly: "Of course, if the prince just wants to make a show, he can also start with Ding Xuan and Cui Jun." β
"Kill monkeys and make an example of chickens, hehe," the king of Yanping County smiled: "It's very vivid, but it's very good, let's start with Pan Lian Xue Yu." β
Liu Han smiled: " Just kidding, my lord, I think so, let's do things politely and politely, first send an official document, send someone to send it to them, let them come to Duzhi Cao, show them the accounts, let them set a time limit for repaying debts, of course, this time limit must be within three months, by the way, and then ask the emperor to issue a holy decree, announcing that within three months, if the debts owed by the treasury are not returned, they will all be raided, and the government will be responsible for auctioning, and the money will be returned to the treasury arrears first, and the rest will be returned to themοΌβ
When the king of Yanping County heard this, he showed a hint of a smile, slapped his forehead and sighed: "Brother Liu, Brother Liu, this king is lucky, this king is lucky, thanks to you being transferred!"
The king of Yanping County is true, he sent someone out to investigate yesterday, but he still doesn't know how to start, how to do things without panicking, he doesn't dare to think about perfection at all, this is a thing that offends people, and after this thing is done, I'm afraid he will offend half of the ministers of the court.
But Liu Han's words made him cheerful, whether it was killing monkeys and making an example of chickens, or saluting first and then soldiers, he was freed from the predicament at once, yes, he still had to offend people, but this offense has been greatly reduced.
The king of Yanping County did not stop doing anything, and immediately called Wang Xun and a group of subordinate officials who were transferred out to participate in this matter to discuss, but Liu Han quietly retreated, the king of Yanping County saw it, and was silent, Liu Han's official rank was still too low, and the team was positive, just a petty official who did not enter the stream, and it belonged to the military system, in Wang Xun's opinion, they came to run errands and get people, and there was no need to participate in such a meeting.
The meeting quickly came up with a plan, and the king of Yanping County wrote a note, and when it came to whether to attach the list, he still hesitated, thought for a while, and still did not attach the list.
The news that the imperial court wants to recover the arrears is only known in a small area, and most people do not know it yet, just wait for his strategy to be decided, play the emperor, and the emperor will issue a holy decree again, and the large-scale recovery will begin immediately.
The king of Yanping County was also ruthless, and yesterday he transferred more than 50 people from the palace, focusing on the investigation of the ministers who owed more than 10,000 taels, and tried to find out their situation as soon as possible.
Song Shu soon arrived at Gan Tang, Gan Tang saw it, and did not give instructions, so he forwarded it to Shang Shutai, Pan Lian all day, his heart was up and down, after seeing the Song Shu of the King of Yanping County, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, however, 100,000 taels of silver, still made him a little painful.
These 100,000 taels of silver are the income of more than a year in the past year, of which 50,000 taels were sent by Yangzhou this time, and they were given this time, and I was really unwilling.
But what if you don't give it?
Qiuyun is the first time to see this music, during this time, he was in the Taiwei Mansion and Pan Ji to discuss the military deployment of Yongliang and Sanzhou, Chang'an arsenal is empty, so that he and Pan Ji are very anxious, once the fight outside the fortress, whether it is to fight out of the fortress or not, Chang'an is a logistics base in the west, and the arsenal here must not be empty.
But the treasury was empty, and he couldn't come up with any money, so he had to rely on debt collection to collect the salaries of the border army and the ordnance to fill the arsenal of Chang'an.
Alas, Qiu Yun let out a long sigh in his heart, the situation was going to be turbulent again.
Zuo Chen was very happy and praised the king of Yanping County, thinking that he was diligent in government affairs and had come up with a feasible strategy in such a short period of time.
When the emperor saw this note before dinner, he lifted the Zhu pen and approved it, put down the pen and saw Xue Mi on the side, and casually praised: "The king of Yanping County is very honest in his work, and he came up with a strategy today for what he was assigned yesterday, and you recommend this candidate well!!
Xue Mi understood as soon as he heard it, and laughed twice: "Which is the work of the minister, or the emperor's sage." β
"Hehe, I'm going to make a sycophant!" The emperor was in a good mood, not only because of this note, but also because of the note that he received this morning, Pengzhu reported that Chen Guo had resettled 100,000 displaced people, and was now mobilizing materials to prepare for spring ploughing.
100,000 displaced people, which made the emperor overjoyed, Peng Zhu declared in the recital, if it is implemented throughout the country, it will be able to solve the problem of the displaced people who have plagued the Great Jin Dynasty for many years, and he is summing up the experience of Chen Guo and implementing this law throughout the country in the future.
"Pengzhu solves the matter of Chen Guo, the king of Yanping County solves the matter of the treasury debt, if Gu Wei can solve the matter of salt administration, in the summer, we will go to the cold water to escape the heat. β
