Section 192 Changes in the North
The most suitable candidate is to ask Cao Xun to write a letter.
Grain, cloth. Liu An was about to take out some things to find trouble for the civil servants in the court.
This is not over yet. Liu An said to Liu Chenggui again: "There is another thing. Several good carboniferous mining areas were found in 200 miles around Xianping County, which is also a big deal."
"That's right."
Liu Chenggui knew that last year, he had a quarrel over the establishment of a separate Carboniferous Stone.
Then, because there are still guests coming during the Chinese New Year, it was suspended.
Now you can continue to quarrel.
Cao Xun couldn't eat anymore, so he wanted to go to three civil servants under his command to discuss how to write this official document.
After Cao Xun left, Liu Chenggui asked Liu An: "Now this fleet is in the name of a caravan, aren't you afraid of sending officials?"
"Not afraid." Liu An was very confident: "Ordinary civil servants cannot bear this hardship and are constantly rushing on the sea. According to those in the court, they basically have to be sick for three years after they have been running for a year."
Speaking of this, Liu An said again: "It's Chameng. Although it's far away and even harder than Qiongya, it needs officials there, but no one is willing to go there. This is really embarrassing. I have a young official Weibo account, and even if I talk about it in the court, there will be no result."
Liu Chenggui nodded silently.
When you arrive in Leizhou, you are called a heavy demotion, and when you arrive in Qiongya, you are exiled. If you go to Chameng a few hundred miles away, what is this called? Will it be forever abandoned by the Song Dynasty?
It is normal that you can't find a civil servant in Champa.
Liu Chenggui thought for a while and said to Liu An: "This year, I will help you with the wind. If you can ask the second of the Three Principles to help you, you can add another small encore. If you fail the Jinshi, you will take the exam again, or you are willing to be an official in Chameng for five years, and you will be awarded the same Jinshi when you come back."
"No, I dare not do this. People in the court will scold me to death."
Liu An was reluctant to recruit a thousand obedient civil servants in Cham City, but he could never say it out loud. Instead, he had to refuse carefully.
Liu Chenggui smiled but did not answer.
He knew that some things were not driven by human resources, but by things.
When the three things in Chameng's grain, cloth and dye have developed seriously, there will be no need for Liu An to say that someone will find a way to force officials to Chameng.
Who would like to go to that place that can be abandoned?
Therefore, in the end, I will still use the method of juren.
In fact, Liu An had secretly recruited almost 80 juren who were desperate about the examination. These people were already distributed in the Asu family Kumamoto Manor of the Asu family in Zhuzi Island, Qiongya South New Pier, and Chameng City.
There are not many living people here in Qiongya South.
Some of them are now salt fields, guards, and Qu Yue prisoners of war.
At the same time, in Hejian Mansion.
Cao Wei has issued a order to clear the fields. This year's spring plowing has stopped. All the people in the villages outside the city have moved into the city. Then the strong men and strong women have begun to move to Dengzhou and Ju County in large numbers.
Clothing merchants and grain merchants in Jinling and Hangzhou have begun to transport grain and cloth from water to north.
The cloth merchants and grain merchants did not know that they were going to fight. They met Liu An's promise to transport a sufficient amount of grain and cloth to the north and accumulate it, waiting for the opportunity to trade.
The two brothers Cao Wei and Cao Liu stood at the head of Hejian Prefecture, and Yang Yanzhao and Li Huan were also here.
"Have you started to retreat from Zhending Mansion?" Cao Wei asked a personal soldier beside him.
The personal soldiers replied: "I have made arrangements for the commander-in-chief, but it is not as fast as ours. The secret letter written by Mr. Feng to the government also wrote a document to the court. The secret letter to the government reported that Youzhou began to assemble heavy troops. The official documents in the court were about the plunder of the Liao army and the people fled south. Zhending Prefecture followed the order of the Privy Council and retreated behind closed doors."
Yang Yanzhao asked: "Who signs the official documents in the court?"
"It's true that Sima is determined."
Li Huan said, "I picked up two people in the Liao people's Suzhou City. After they were loyal, they went back to inquire about the news, saying that the Liao people promised the Bohai people. If the Bohai soldiers were willing to be the vanguard, they promised the Bohai two cities to restore the Dongdan Kingdom."
Yang Yanzhao also said: "Li Huan, the Goryeo people you detained, were sent to me. I sent someone to Goryeo. I originally wanted to contact the commercial route, but I also unexpectedly discovered the envoys from the Liao people to Goryeo. I don't have any detailed works on Goryeo here, so I don't know what the Liao people's envoys went to Goryeo?"
Cao Wei suddenly turned around and asked Li Huan: "Li Huan, ask your people to check if the Jurchens ordered weapons from you, and the number increased."
Yang Yanzhao immediately reacted: "General Cao, are you talking about it?"
"That's right, since the Liao people could move the Bohai people's ideas, they would also send the Jurchens to the front line. In my opinion, this matter still starts with Li Huan's attack on the Liao people's Suzhou Town. My people found out that the Bohai people rebelled again, but thousands of people were killed in Suzhou Town and tens of thousands of people fled."
Cao Wei sighed: "This is the bargaining chip, tens of thousands of people, and the Bohai rebels will not leave tens of thousands of young and strong people alone, so the Liao people offered conditions that were equivalent to giving the Bohai people a chance."
Li Huan stepped forward and clasped his fists: "General Cao, I'll contact the Jurchens now and send them back as soon as possible after I get the news."
"good."
Cao Wei bowed his fists and returned the gift.
After Li Huan left, Cao Wei said to Cao Liu: "San Ge, I want you to go to Bingzhou once in person. Some ordinary soldiers are not convenient to take them."
"I understand, I know what to say."
Although Cao Liu is the third child of the Cao family, his ability to lead the army is far inferior to that of the fourth child Cao Wei.
He can be a charge general, but he cannot be the commander.
He is also from the Wuxun family, and has read military books and understands military strategy. He can explain the situation here to Shi Baoshi in a very detailed way. I believe Shi Baoshi will make a quick judgment.
Next, we will wait for the official to make up our minds.
It also depends on whether Liu An can convince the officials at critical moments.
Cao Wei turned around and said to Yang Yanzhao: "General Yang, guard here for me for ten days. I will go to see Duke Feng."
"If there is any mistake, please take the head away." Yang Yanzhao clasped his fists heavily.
Cao Wei clenched his fist tightly on Yang Yanzhao: "Ten days later, General Yang will start preparing for war in Dengzhou. I have a very confidential news that there will be 50,000 elite combat powers in the South China Sea to go north, but I don't know when the news here will reach the South China Sea, so General Yang..."
"I understand." Yang Yanzhao fully understood that once the news came out, he would be responsible for temporarily receiving the 50,000 elite troops to his Dengzhou City, and it turned out that he would obey further arrangements.
As for the 50,000 elite Yang Yanzhao who came there, he didn't ask.
Since Cao Wei said there were 50,000, there would definitely be 50,000.
