In the courtyard full of dead branches and leaves, Liu Jishu looked at a warrior who was meditating quietly and did not dare to speak.
"Which side are you on?" Shao Shude asked: "Ximen family? Han family?"
"Please, Your Majesty, show me a clear path." Liu Jishu said with a sad look on his face.
"You have helped me with a lot of things." Shao Shude said, "Go to Chengdu and become a supervisor."
Liu Jishu was stunned.
"Don't you understand?" Shao Shude emphasized his tone and said: "The imperial court is led by the prime minister, and the Shence Army escort officer, you will be the supervisor of the army."
"Your Majesty, how can Li Maozhen be captured without hesitation? The morale of the Shence Army is low, and I'm afraid it will collapse at the first touch." Liu Jishu was a little reluctant and begged: "Your Majesty, please let me stay in the capital for the sake of my servant's many years of service."
Shao Shude was silent.
Liu Jishu did help him with a lot of things, but trust was still not enough. But then again, should there be someone to check and balance Han Quanhui?
Seeing that Shao Shude was silent, Liu Jishu understood that there was something going on, and with a happy face, he said: "Your Majesty, your servant must be loyal and loyal. Han Quan taught this man that he is treacherous and vicious, and wants to ruin the reputation of your Majesty."
"Oh? Tell me." Shao Shude said calmly.
"In the past few days, Wang Yanfan, the envoy of the Sixteenth King's House, is a lackey of Han Quanjie's sect. The women sent to serve the king in the past few days are the female nuns Wang Yanfan found from Zhi De Guan."
Shao Shude laughed.
The Temple of Virtue is a female crown. Xuanzong once visited this temple incognito, but I don’t know what his motives were.
However, he was disappointed. The temple was not the pure nuns he had imagined, but female Taoist priests with heavy makeup. He suddenly lost all interest and immediately summoned Song Shukang, the meritorious envoy of Zuojie, and "ordered them to leave." Don't choose the two men.
The abbot looked at it. However, at this moment, it changed back to a female crown, because the royal family's needs are not that kind of needs, but many people have the needs of becoming a monk, such as concubines, princesses, princesses, etc.
Playing with women's crowns is not a big deal in the country. From the royal family to the bureaucrats, everyone has a special liking for it. It can even be said to be an elegant thing. But then again, the most virtuous women's crowns,
Unless someone takes the initiative, generally no one dares to play.
"If it's just this matter, Palace Superintendent Liu might as well ask him to come back. It won't take him a few days to pack his bags," Shao Shude threatened.
"Your Majesty, calm down." Liu Jishu said immediately: "There is one more thing. The saint intended to order the kings to leave the outer vassal, but Han Quanjie did not stop him."
From a system perspective, Han Quanjie has no power to stop it. If it is based on strength, he can indeed stop it.
"I understand." Shao Shude nodded and said, "Well, seeing as you have been more submissive over the years, I will become the lieutenant of the Shence Right Army."
Han Quanhui was the lieutenant of the Left Army and the envoy to observe the army. The country obeyed the Left Army, and the strength of the Left Army was definitely stronger than that of the Right Army. However, the Lieutenant of the Right Army was still a hot potato and a position of real power that should not be underestimated.
Liu Jishu was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "My servant thanks you, Your Majesty."
"I don't care what happens to you and Han Quanhui in private. If you undermine each other in public and ruin my major affairs, I know the consequences."
"I'm sorry, I won't make any mistakes."
"Then go back quickly. Someone will contact you about taking charge of the right army." Shao Shude said: "Reorganize the Shence Army as soon as possible. Why is the Nanya and Northern Division still delaying the work?"
"I obey the king's order." Liu Jishu left happily.
"Commander, these erections have no moral integrity, so that's all they're good for." Chen Cheng walked over with a smile on his face: "It's good to be a watchdog."
"Chen Changshi still likes to play people." Shao Shude smiled and said: "How is the work going?"
"That's all here." Chen Cheng handed over a pile of copied forms and seals.
Well, the seal was copied from the Political Affairs Hall. As soon as the saint entered the capital, all the officials had paid their congratulations, and then several prime ministers went to work in a hurry. Because someone was watching Shi Chencheng, the chief minister of the Xia Palace, he drank tea under the door, which meant Self-explanatory.
"Under the sect... don't think about being an official anymore, learn the six Taoist secrets, explore the three ambitions. Get the key points of the son, jade, and military, and have the heart of a young minister to support scholars... It is the corner of the sea, the connection between the land and the customs. Every time I think about the title of the tribe , especially in Fu'an... You should practice these seven virtues and live in harmony with our neighbors. Work hard at night to practice martial arts, and work around to cultivate military and political affairs. You will be successful in the land of happiness, and you will serve my court's kindness. You must obey the precepts and obey your orders."
This is a document, drafted in the name of the emperor, which outlines the task requirements. In addition, there are also official official seals, banners, ceremonials and other supporting documents, which are issued together.
"Hai Yu" and "Yue Su" have clearly explained the location. The imperial court also gave general guidelines, namely "pacifying" and "good neighborliness", and at the same time "strengthening martial arts" and "repairing military and political affairs". Basically, it should Everything has been said.
The mountains are high and the roads are long, and the situation is complicated. It is impossible for the court to give detailed instructions, so we can only explain it this way.
Jing Haijun was the military envoy, and the Annan observation and disposal envoy, the Annan Protector, Lingjiao, Lu, Feng, Ai, Huan, Chang, Zhi, Yan, Fulu, Wu'an, Wu'e eleven prefectures, and Zhijiao prefecture.
The town was named Annan. In the seventh year of Xiantong, after Gao Pian recovered, he ordered the army to be established and was given the military name "Jinghai".
The eleven states of Jinghai were relatively stable at the beginning. Even after the Anshi Rebellion, the separatist rule of vassal towns in the Central Plains, rebellions and rebellions, Annan has always been relatively peaceful.
The first rebellion occurred in the sixth year of Zhenyuan of Dezong (790). Because the official Jinglue died, his assistants Li Yuandu and Hu Huaiyi started the rebellion. Li Fuxing, the envoy of Lingnan Jiedu, killed Huaiyi with a stick, and Yuandu was exiled to Qiongzhou. Huizhou and Jiaozhou are still good places with relatively prosperous household registrations, while Qiongzhou and Yazhou are formidable places of exile.
The second time was in the 17th year of Zhenyuan (801), when Du Yinghan, a barbarian in Annan, rebelled, Zhao Chang became the protector of Annan, and the barbarians were all in peace. Ten years later, Zhao Chang returned to Beijing to serve as the son of the emperor, and Jiaozhou prefecture expelled the trustworthy minister. The envoy Pei Tai was appointed as the envoy, and Zhao Chang was appointed as the envoy. When the edict arrived, "people congratulated each other" and "the rebels will be determined".
In the 14th year of Yuanhe of Emperor Xianzong (819), the army in Annan was in chaos and Li Xianggu, the governor of the country, was killed. Gui Zhongwu, the governor of Tangzhou, was appointed as the protector of Annan. He served as the military envoy and executed Yang Qing, the leader of the rebel army, to quell the rebellion. .
In the second year of Emperor Wenzong's Taihe reign (826), Annan's army was in chaos and the capital was driven out to protect Han Yue.
In the third year of Wuzong's Huichang reign (843), Wu Hun was ordered to repair the city. The soldiers were angry and started a rebellion, burning the city towers and plundering the treasury.
Later, Nanzhao captured it and Gao Pian recovered it.
Shao Shude thought about it carefully and realized that this was completely a "normal" Tang Dynasty feudal town!
There are mature large states and counties, there are remote states and counties with a large number of barbarians, and there are proud soldiers and generals with the characteristics of our Tang Dynasty...
These days, if there is no military turmoil in the vassal town, is it still the vassal town of the Tang Dynasty? Is it reasonable?
Annan Town has so few rebellions that it can be said to be docile. This may be related to its weak military strength. Some Jiedu envoys brought thousands of people to take office and firmly controlled Jiaozhou. Based on this
, control surrounding counties.
"Mo Zaisi has three thousand soldiers. Let him take them all to their posts. It won't work without reliable people around him," Shao Shude ordered.
Being promoted to the rank of vassal commander with just one title was a qualitative leap for Mo Zaisi, and he should be overjoyed.
Historically, An Youquan, a Sogdian, happily took office and served as the military governor for eight years. Until the emperor was kidnapped by Zhu Quanzhong and sent to Luoyang, Dugu Sun was appointed as the military governor of Jinghai Navy. The imperial edict was sent to Jiaozhou, but Dugu
Xi was killed by Zhu Quanzhong, Annan lost its military envoy, and the local tyrant Qu Chengyu emboldened himself to proclaim himself the queen.
This is actually a good place.
The eight counties of Jiaozhou, with a population of 100,000, are well developed. This is the Zhengzhou of the Tang Dynasty, not Jisi Prefecture, nor Manzhou, but it is still quite wealthy.
After skipping this one, Shao Shude looked through the next few.
The observation envoy of the Shengrong Guan was the military envoy of Ningyuan Army, leading more than ten prefectures including Rong, Bai, and Lao.
The current Jiedushi is He Ding, who has a well-known literary name.
This person was still very loyal to the court. In history, Zhu Quanzhong committed regicide, and He Ding "told all his disciples to be loyal no matter what."
Such a scholar serves as an observer. There are many barbarians in the territory, and the rebellion is uncertain, but he can persuade him with his words. It is also the mysterious cave thief Liang Zong who rebelled. He Ding "bicycled to talk about it", "Zong and his disciples all worshiped him."
He wept and led the people back to the fields." He Ding never rebelled again during his tenure.
Shao Desheng, the Marquis of Yu from the capital of Feng'an Army, was appointed as the military governor of Ningyuan Army.
Shao Desheng was a private soldier in the Xicheng era. To be honest, his military capabilities were limited. He could command thousands of men and was incapable of being a general. Let him serve as a military envoy. It was considered rich and honorable, and there was an explanation.
Shao Desheng had four sons, all of whom were young, and they all stayed in Anyi this time. Shao Shude allowed them to study in Longchi Palace. When they become adults, if they have talents, they will naturally be reused.
The area under the jurisdiction of Ningyuan Military was roughly in the Yulin and Beihai areas of Guangxi in later generations.
The Jinghai Navy was roughly located in northern Vietnam, southern Guangxi, and parts of southeastern Yunnan in later generations.
The old Lingnan Road actually has a total of "five tubes", namely Guiguan (Guilin and Liuzhou area), Yongguan (Nanning and Qinzhou area), Rongguan (Yulin and Beihai area), Guangguan (most of Guangdong) and Annan.
It forms Lingnan Road.
As the development of Wuguan deepened, military governors were later established in vassal towns, and some even established armies and were given military titles.
For example, Yong Guan established a town, and the town was named Lingnan West Road, but no army was established; Guang Guan established a town, and the town was named Lingnan East Road, and was given the military title "Qinghai"; Annan established Jing Haijun; Rong Guan was promoted to Ningyuan Army, and Gui Guan was named Jingjiang military.
In the fifth area, Shao Shude paid more attention to the food and appearance, and only took the two towns of Jinghaijun and Ningyuanjun.
The imperial court intended to use Li Sizhou, the successor king of Qin, to go out to control Lingnan West Road, and Shao Shude acquiesced.
After his successor, King Xue, Zong Zhengqing Li Zhirou went out to Guangzhou and replaced Liu Chonggui as the military envoy of the Qing Navy.
Li Jiepi, the king of Yan, came out of Guizhou to serve as the military governor of Jingjiang.
He was promoted to the Central Guizhou Observation Envoy as Wu Taijun, and Tong Wang Li Zi was appointed as the Jiedushi Envoy.
These appointments were actually written on a single document, and Chen Cheng had people copy them separately.
"The saint is anxious!" Shao Shude sighed: "The court can still give orders to these places now. But in a few years, local military generals and local tycoons will come to their senses, and I'm afraid they won't be able to control them anymore."
In short, the towns in the south have always been obedient. But there is a limit to how obedient you can be. Now some places have come to their senses and know that the imperial court is no longer good. For example, Jiangxi, Hunan, and Fujian will not accept the imperial court's blame. If you want to expel Jiedushi and become the king, you can at most continue to make offerings to the court and maintain your dignity.
Wu Guan and places like Central Guizhou are also a matter of time.
If you act now, you can still use the imperial court's brand. If it is two years later, the situation will be difficult to predict.
"Let Shao Desheng recruit 2,000 elite soldiers and go south. When they reach Xiangyang, Zhao Kuangning selects 2,000 elite soldiers to help them." Shao Shude said.
"As ordered." Chen Cheng responded.
Since entering Beijing, the first major task is to deploy manpower, which is being steadily advanced and should be no big deal.
The second major thing was to send people out to the fifth level of the town, which was also accomplished.
Next is the third thing. It involves Shuzhong, which is probably not possible, but I still want to try.
