Starting from the afternoon, the Song army began to ask for the transfer of various weapons and armor from door to door, with the reason to prevent the Xixia army from hiding in the city. Although it was required that the people in the city would conduct self-inspection and return, the focus was on the Xixia people.

The people of Xixia not only had to take the initiative to surrender, but also went into the house to search. Most of the people of Xixia swallowed their anger and cooperated with the Song army to go into the house to search, but there were still a few people of Xixia who did not allow the Song army to enter the house. A fight occurred. The Song army quickly arrested people, and when it was dark, they arrested thousands of people of Xixia.

Chen Qing immediately made a decision that these more than a thousand Xixia people, together with their families, would be forcibly deported back to Xixia.

Chen Qing knew very well that there would be no Xixia soldiers in the city now, but once the Xixia army came, they would inevitably cooperate with the army to cooperate inside and outside. They were all high-risk figures and must be repatriated.

At the same time when the Song army began to expel the Xixia people in Liangzhou in a planned manner, Liu Guangshi, the new Sichuan-Shaanxi Propaganda and Pacification Envoy, also took office. He did not come to office alone, but brought 15,000 troops.

These 5,000 people are not the army of the court, but the army recruited by Liu Guangshi himself, and the army of the Liu family. Basically every general has his own army recruited. This is a tacit agreement between the court, and this is also to mobilize the enthusiasm of each general, allowing him to recruit some of the army to be supplemented except for the quota for leadership stipulated by the court.

Of course, the salary and food of these self-recruiting troops is also borne by the court. What makes them special is that the general mobilizes them and the army will follow them, which is the key.

Chen Qing's army followed him to Yueyang, and Yue Fei's Yue family army also followed him to Jingxiang. The most private equity army here was Zhang Jun, with more than 80,000 people, followed by Han Shizhong, with about 60,000 people, and Yue Fei, with fifty thousand people and twenty thousand people in the Wu rank, but he left the army to his brother Wu Lin.

Liu Guangshi's private equity army once had more than 30,000 people, but he was defeated in Yangzhou the previous year and almost destroyed the entire army. He began to recruit troops again, so his private equity army had the least number.

This is the source of each ‘family army’. In the early Southern Song Dynasty, there were not only the Yue family army, but also the Zhang family army, the Han family army, the Liu family army and the Wu family army. Now Chen Qing’s army has begun to be called the Chen family army...

However, these military bosses were deprived of military power by the emperor Zhao Gou in the later period, but Yue Fei's fate was the most tragic.

Liu Guangshi was relatively low-key in the past two years because of the disastrous defeat of the previous year, but low-key does not mean that he is inaction. He is very good at engaging in the camp and found that the party of Empress Dowager Wei is gradually becoming stronger, but he still lacks military power. He decisively submitted a letter of fame to Empress Dowager Wei and became the party of Empress Dowager. He did taste the sweetness, and the big hat of the Sichuan-Shaanxi Propaganda Envoy fell on his head.

The reason why Liu Guangshi was able to serve as the Sichuan-Shaanxi Xuanfu envoy as a military general was not because he was very capable, but because he was one of the few military generals who relieved Emperor Zhao Gou.

Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong, Liu Guangshi, Yang Yizhong, Yue Fei, Liu Qi, there are only a few people. Only Liu Qi in the Western Army can get trust, and no one else can make it to this list, so Liu Ziyu, Wang Yan, and Wu Jie were all transferred away.

In the official yamen of the Xuanfu Department, officials were taking turns to report the situation to Liu Guangshi. Li Miao and Liu Guangshi were fellow villagers and had old friends. After Liu Guang took office this time, he was promoted to judge.

Liu Guangshi smiled and said to Li Miao: "I am different from Lu Fasheng. He is a civil servant. He should not be interested in directly managing the army. I guess his interest is to manage people, but I am different. I am a general. My interest is to directly control all the army. You have to tell me where is the breakthrough point for mastering all the armies in Sichuan and Shaanxi?"

Before Liu Guangshi came to take office, he specifically asked Zhu Shengfei. Zhu Shengfei told him that if he wanted to become a real Sichuan-Shaanxi Propaganda and Pacification envoy, the key was to control the military power. Liu Guangshi deeply agreed with it. Once the emperor was the emperor and the minister, this time he brought 15,000 troops and thirteen confidant generals, and of course he wanted to take over the entire army.

Li Miao certainly understood what Liu Guangshi meant. He thought for a while and said: "At present, there are 50,000 troops under the Sichuan-Shaanxi Xuanfu Department, which are divided into 20,000 Sichuan troops and 30,000 Shaanxi troops. The 20,000 Sichuan troops are directly managed by the Xuanfu Department. There is no problem with this. The trouble is 30,000 Shaanxi troops, which is actually the Hanzhong army. They are the Wu-level army, and the Xuanfu Department can only indirectly control them."

The skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a skeleton is a skeleton, a s

Liu Guangshi narrowed his eyes and said, "Didn't Wu Jie leave?"

"His generals are still here! The commander of Wu Lin, the commander of Tian Sheng, the commander of Yang Zheng, and the commander of Liu Zan, are all the confidants of Wu's rank and currently control the 30,000 troops in Hanzhong."

Liu Guangshi nodded, the key here was Wu Lin!

"Where is Wu Lin now?"

"He has been staying in Xicheng forever."

Liu Guangshi immediately ordered: "Send military orders to go to Xicheng and order Wu Lin to come to see me."

The follower has gone to receive the order.

Liu Guangshi walked to the map and looked at Xihe Road on the map and asked: "Xihe Road should also be under the jurisdiction of the Sichuan-Shaanxi Xuanfu Department!"

"Reporting to the Xuanfu Envoy, it was, but since the previous year, the court divided it out. Lu Fasheng has been trying every means to plan Xihe Road, hoping to bring Xihe Road back to the jurisdiction of the Sichuan-Shaanxi Xuanfu Office. Unfortunately, Chen Qing was too strong and Lu Fasheng had no chance."

“Strong?”

Liu Guangshi snorted, "I'm afraid I'm just not following the rules."

Liu Guangshi and Chen Qing were incompatible, and they originally originated from Gao Ding. Gao Ding was Liu Guangshi's general. Because he was dissatisfied with Liu Guangshi's command, he left the army and went to Jingzhou to join Chen Qing.

Liu Guangshi wrote letters several times to request the repatriation of Gao Ding, but Chen Qing refused them all, so that Liu Guangshi lost face in front of the generals, so he held a grudge against Chen Qing. When Chen Qing got married in Lin'an, Liu Guangshi was the only general who did not send congratulations or letters.

Now that he has joined the Empress Dowager's party, Chen Qing has become an enemy both public and private. One task assigned to him by Empress Dowager Wei is to find evidence of Chen Qing's attempt to rebel, and find a way to capture him and send him to Lin'an as a reward, and he will serve as the governor of Xihe Road.

Although the reward is very attractive, Liu Guangshi also knew that this task was difficult to complete, and he was a little unreasonable and willful. If he really did this, the empress dowager would be happy, but he could not explain it to the official side.

Let’s find out the evidence of Chen Qing’s rebellion first.

"How did Lu Fasheng do it?"

"He sent a few people to Chengji County to lurk in search of Chen Qing's handle, but Chen Qing discovered that the gift was sent back, so he did not make things difficult for them."

"It means that Lu Fasheng won nothing!"

"It can be said that, but just before he left the job, he found a little clue."

"What's the clue?" Liu Guangshi asked.

"That's the military salary. From last year to now, the Sichuan-Shaanxi Xuanfu Department only has 20,000 military salary under Chen Qing, but Chen Qing has at least 50,000. How did he solve the military salary of the other 30,000?"

"What if he collected taxes and raised it himself?"

Li Miao smiled and shook his head, "If the Xuanfu Envoy knew Xihe Road, he would not think so. Xihe Road has a small population and has never been rich. I am afraid that he can't afford the military salary of 5,000 people, let alone 30,000 people."

Liu Guangshi frowned, "This is a bit strange."

"So Lu Fasheng believes that Chen Qing must have mined and minted money privately, and the military supervisor Wang Xian was bribed by him."

Liu Guangshi narrowed his eyes and without the permission of the court, the Jiedushi secretly mined and minted money. This was a serious crime!
