Chapter 209 Silently planning
After hearing this, the Governor threw the book to one side, with a blank expression: "Since the policy of suppressing the Japanese, the Japanese pirates have become increasingly weak, and the financial resources of Yingzhou have increased greatly. Your navy's army should have been allocated a lot, but now, the Japanese pirates have not yet been wiped out. The coastal people are still being violated by the Japanese pirates, which makes me feel heartbroken and heartbroken."
When the Governor said this, he shook his head and sighed. When Chen Ping heard this, he could no longer stand and knelt down: "Governor, it's not that the last general refuses to destroy it, but that these Japanese pirates are cunning. Every time we want to dispatch the navy to wipe out, there will be someone to report it and escape immediately. It's really hateful. Please forgive me for the time being, and the last general will definitely wipe it out."
The governor took a sip of tea and said coldly: "You really have this ability. How can the disaster of the Japanese pirates be delayed until now?"
His words were plain and his expression was relatively calm, but to Chen Ping, it was simply a thunderclap.
He didn't dare to argue for a while. Although Chen Ping was a soldier, he actually understood some key points. The power of the governor was rarely more than six years since ancient times.
The governor went to Yingzhou to serve as a member of the government, building roads, building post stations, building academies, providing relief, and persuading agriculture and sericulture. These are political achievements rather than merits.
Now, three major things have been done, one is to cut down the town, the second is to control the Japanese, and the third is to serve as a maritime authority. They can all achieve merits in future generations, and they can be said to be a meritorious person.
But these three items are a bit incomplete. The incompleteness is that there are some dead Japanese pirates who attack the coast from time to time. It is the fifth year since the Governor arrived in Yingzhou and may be transferred next year. He is unable to suppress the Japanese and cannot make the Governor have made every contribution. He was guilty of the Governor. For a moment, cold sweat wet his back.
The governor knocked on the cup, his hands were well maintained, as if he was thinking deeply. After a while, he said, "If you can't solve the Japanese pirates, I think you can only report to Your Majesty and send people again. However, your position as a general must be moved."
Hearing this, Chen Ping was a general of the navy and a fourth-rank official. At this time, he was covered in cold sweat and had a fine bead of sweat oozing from his forehead. He could no longer bear it. He kowtowed repeatedly and said, "Governor General, please give the last general a chance. I can issue a military order and I will definitely clear all these Japanese pirates."
The governor played with the teacup lid and looked at the unruly general who surrendered, and suddenly felt extremely satisfied. At the beginning of the founding of the country, the military power was great. Not to mention the Marquis of Jibei, even this person was convinced or dissatisfied. But now in the ninth year of the founding of the country, the civil administration was gradually growing and the military was gradually being curbed, and the situation was completely different. Even such a general had to bow his knees in front of him.
Therefore, the civil officials almost agreed to suppress the military, while the emperor was optimistic about his success.
Even though he thought this, his face was expressionless. Seeing Chen Ping kneeling in front of him, cold sweat flowing down his forehead, dripping on the ground, and a little sweat marks were made, the governor said: "Okay, I'll give you this opportunity, but I have to appoint another person. The person in charge cannot be you."
Listening to the Governor General, Chen Ping's face turned pale and he hurriedly said, "Governor General, Governor General, please give me another chance. I will definitely be so sad."
"What do you look like now? Is there a general's demeanor? It's not about stripping you of your position."
"The person I appointed has no official position. The general is you in name, and the credit is also you. But you must listen to the order of transfer. If you are unwilling to obey and fail to suppress the Japanese, you must take responsibility."
Listening to the Governor's words, Chen Ping breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he was not transferred or dismissed, he would be fine. He wiped his sweat with timidity and asked again: "Governor General, whoever he appointed, the last general will treat him well."
"No need, I appointed this person to be responsible for the major plan. This person is considered talented. If it weren't for a coincidence, I wouldn't have invited him." said the governor, touching his beard.
"Sir, who is it?" Chen Ping asked.
"Pei Ziyun."
Chen Ping was immediately confused. This man was a literary man, so he could not lead the troops. He waved to the Governor: "When I go back this time, I will report all the list of the navy captains."
"Yes, Governor, this matter is very easy, there is one in the yamen, and I will send the list immediately." Chen Ping had to swallow all his words, and saw that the Governor had nothing to say, and he answered his order.
Seeing Chen Ping go out, the governor turned to the manager: "After the list is delivered, copy one and send it to the Fu Mansion and hand it over to Pei Ziyun."
"yes!"
Seeing the manager go out, the governor looked at the window without saying a word and made a silent plan. Needless to say, Pei Ziyun's literary talent and poetry are almost the best in the world. He personally passed the political arguments and even heard the news of the prince. However, it is hard to say whether he can fight or not.
However, it is a foregone conclusion that his transfer next year is possible. The navy will be perfect and may be able to completely encircle and eliminate the Japanese pirates.
If you cannot win, it is his responsibility to take down Chen Ping's punishment.
At this point, most of the military power in Yingzhou collapsed and was completely returned to the court.
Jibei Hou Mansion·Study Room
There were personal soldiers standing in front of the study. Shen Zhi was sorting out the documents in front of the case. An oil lamp was lit, and the two wicks were bright. Shen Zhi read them one by one, summarized the content briefly, wrote a small sign, and pasted them carefully behind them.
After posting one, he rubbed his eyes, rubbed his face, and woke up his mind. At this time, a voice came from the door, and a man bowed: "Mr. Shen, there is a secret report."
There was basically no good news for the secret report. Shen Zhi frowned and said, "Come in!"
A man in black entered and handed an envelope on it. Shen passed it directly through the envelope, and then he frowned when he saw the dark marks on the cover.
When the letter was opened, he read it briefly and was startled. He slapped his hand on the table and scolded angrily: "Damn it, the governor is too forced!"
After saying that, he hurriedly entered.
At the important points along the way, they were all armoured soldiers, with swords and swords on their waists and eyes not squinted. The weather was so strict. When they reached a yard, they entered directly. Yin heard the voices. It was the Marquis of Jibei who was talking and said on the steps: "Mr. Marquis, report important things."
The sound inside stopped immediately, and a sound came from a moment: "Come in."
"Yes!" Shen Zhi entered the door, glanced at the Marquis of Jibei and saluted: "Mr. Marquis, the Governor suddenly activated Pei Ziyun and wanted to deal with the Japanese."
"The specific situation is here."
After Shen Zhi finished speaking, he handed over the information. The Marquis of Jibei reached out to take it and took a look. After a few glances, he was furious: "What an old thief! He wants to kill me all!"
As he spoke, he felt bitter again. Regarding military power, reputation, talent, and planning, he was far above the governor. Not to mention anything else, the current situation, the people who were placed in the Governor's Mansion could continue to send confidential information, which was a clear proof, but even so, he was weakened step by step.
It is because the governor has the general trend of the court and is practicing open-minded plots.
The Marquis of Jibei thought for a long time and said, "I didn't expect that the Governor was biased towards the prince and wanted to go against King Lu. What do you think of Shen Zhi?"
Shen Zhi listened to this and said, "Marty, it is better to say that the governor is biased towards the crown prince than to say that the governor is biased towards the court. The overall situation of the court is to broaden civil and suppress military affairs. The governor is a civil servant, and he empathizes with it. No matter who he surrenders to, he will think of ways to suppress the general."
"The Governor may not be clear about the relationship between the Japanese pirates and us, but it does not prevent the Governor from cutting off all the military powers inside and outside Yingzhou."
"Although we broke the whole thing into pieces and got a lot of wealth, our direct force was still weakened. By controlling some of the Japanese pirates, our people were saved in it and they really wanted to go all out, so the marquis killed one hand."
"The most shocking thing is that if the Governor directly activates other generals, the Governor will bear the responsibility, but the nominal general is still Chen Ping, and Pei Ziyun is just a counselor. If he fails, most of the responsibility will be Chen Ping, and the Governor can even take Chen Ping rightly for this."
"Although Chen Ping did not actively approach the Marquis, nor was he his own, once he took it down, the entire Yingzhou military power would be the Marquis, and he would be alone and helpless."
"The lips are gone and the teeth are cold. The governor's move is very cruel to us." Chen Zhi is the confidant planner, so he can't speak in a fancy way and analyzes it bluntly.
After hearing this, the Marquis of Jibei looked ashen and was silent for a while: "Then are we going closer to King Lu now, is that right?"
"That's right. King Lu is different from the court. King Lu is not the crown prince. He wants to seize the throne, and his last move is to warn the military, so he is determined to win over the towns."
The Marquis of Jibei nodded his head, pondered for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Mr. Chen, go see Ang'er. He has been staying in his door these days and his personality has become much gloomy. However, it is not a husband without poison. Having this kind of anger may not be a bad thing. Go and ask Ang'er what he thinks?"
"If you have any ideas, you may give it to him."
"Yes!" Chen Zhi listened to the words of Jibei Hou and couldn't help but sigh. Originally, a young man ruined his face and blinded his eyes. He became neither human nor ghost. How could he go back to the past?
Chen straight past several corridors, arrived at a place, and knocked on the door.
"Come in!" said the Wei Ang in the door, as if he was a little drunk.
He pushed open the door and entered the room. Several wine pots were placed on the table. The wine was so fragrant. Wei Ang was disheveled and his hair was a little drunk and burped.
"Where is Huangli?" Chen Zhiqiu asked with a frown when he entered the door. In the past, Xiao Cui was taking care of Wei Ang, but he didn't want to see him today.
Wei Ang smiled bitterly after hearing this, and said, "What future does she have for the young master who was blinded and ruined by her appearance?"
Looking at Wei Ang's appearance, Chen Zhi suddenly felt ache in his heart. This was also a student who had been with him for several years. He was a gentleman. He became like this and felt sad.
Huangli is Wei Ang's maid. Wei Ang had an accident and cried into tears. He was seriously ill. When he was released, Wei Ang was afraid that he would not want the closest people to look at him like this. Who can tell what happened clearly?
"The Marquis asked me to ask questions, please take a look before talking." Chen Zhi handed over the information.
Wei Ang shook his head, cheered up his spirits, took the information, looked for a while, and said, "Haha, the Governor is a good plan. Is it going to kill one of his father's arms again, or is it Pei Ziyun executing it? This junior brother is really against our Marquis' Mansion everywhere."
Chen Zhizhi heard it, and was surprised and happy. At this time, Wei Ang was disheveled with hair, pale face, with a blindfold, a one-eyed dragon, and a scar even more ferocious. Although he smiled, he looked gloomy and terrifying.
