On the surface, the emperor asked himself to be the supervisor of the army, but in fact, his burden was not light. He had to deal with logistics and communicate with the grassland tribes.
Where is Ganzhouwei? It's the border.
That place is different from Youzhou.
Although there are many grassland tribes in the north of Youzhou, they are scattered after all, but the Wala is different, it is a unified political power.
Although he is nominally responsible for logistics, if the Walas attack and the Ganzhou Guard fails to defend, he will bear the brunt.
There is also the eldest brother Yang Xiao. The original plan was for Yang Xiao to hang out at the border for two years, do some military exploits, and develop a good relationship with Chen Changqing in order to gain his support in the future.
But I didn't expect that there would actually be a war?
It seems that this time I really have to devote myself to death.
This emperor is also very cruel. He treats himself like an animal. He will go to the grassland and throw him to Qiongzhou. He has only been back for a few months and he wants to send himself to the northwest front again.
No wonder he has been so generous to the emperor recently when he was asked to support him. It turns out there is a trap waiting for him here.
I didn't dare to talk to Lu Chenghong at the beginning. If I hadn't established a relationship with him, would I have been so miserable?
It's no problem to live a well-off life based on one's own ability. I'm guessing that my wife and children have already lived a comfortable life.
After complaining for a while, Yang Xuan began to make plans to go to Ganzhou Wei.
After all, he also knows that he is not the kind of character who wants to live an ordinary life.
If he had no backing, he would have been eaten up and wiped clean by others long ago, with no bones left.
Fortunately, there is still more than a month before the troops set off, and many things can still be arranged in time.
Let’s straighten out the current affairs first. Although the affairs of the Liuli Tong Chamber of Commerce have just begun, there are basically no problems with Prince Hui and the managers he has trained.
There is no need to worry about other industries, they are already on track.
Shengfa Company has now undergone shareholding restructuring, and everyone is watching it, and no one dares to mess around.
As for the Taoist temple, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of it for a while, but judging by the time, the new Taoist temple should have started before I set off.
As for the piece of land that still belongs to Shengfa Department Store, given Zhang Zhenren's reputation, he should be able to get it from the emperor.
By the way, when we go to the border, it's best to ask for more help from the old Taoist priests. After all, in a place like that, everything is decided by fists. It would be a shame if you didn't have some experts around you.
The most important thing is that the emperor is here. If you don't give him a hard blow, your own conscience will be troubled.
Although the emperor asked him to be a supervisor, the supervisor is not a serious official position, it can only be regarded as a job.
There are three types of people who are responsible for supervising the army. One is the censor. They are originally responsible for supervising all officials, and they should be.
One is civil servants, who select good character and good official reputation to supervise the army and prevent the generals who lead the army from causing chaos.
There is another kind of eunuch. The emperor believes that the eunuch has the closest relationship with him. He not only thinks about himself, but does not dare to deceive himself.
Yang Xuan belongs to the category of civil servants. The emperor felt that he had a good character and could be trusted, so he sent him to supervise the army and also assigned him some tasks.
But since he was assigned the position of supervising the army, he had no choice but to get an official position.
Not to mention restoring the previous rank of third-rank minister, at least he should be given the title of bachelor of the entire cabinet.
The next day, Yang Xuan first went to Shen Optimism to find Zhang Zhenren.
After listening to Yang Xuan's words, Master Zhang frowned and thought for a while and said: "This is a good deed for the country and the people. I wish Mr. Yang a safe journey and victory."
Yang Xuan had no intention of playing tricks with the old Taoist priest now: "Okay, I'm going to Ganzhou now and I don't know when I'll be back. I just want to say hello to you. Regarding your Taoist temple, the place is already here.
Once the Mochou Lake side is built and the Shengfa Department Store moves there, this land will be vacant. Then you should ask the emperor to ask for it as soon as possible, so as not to be overtaken by others."
The old Taoist priest was robbed by Yang Xuan and rolled his eyes: "I know, I know, it's hard for a poor Taoist to cultivate his mind and character, but you want to destroy my Taoist mind. What else can you do?"
"Don't save money when building a Taoist temple. More than two million taels of silver are enough to bring disaster to you. The more grand you build, the better."
The old Taoist priest nodded.
"After the Taoist temple is built, you will personally take charge of it and recruit disciples so that it can flourish. Do you understand?"
"Okay, okay, I know all these things." The old Taoist priest said impatiently: "If this Taoist temple is grand enough, it will take a year and a half to build it, and you will be back by then."
Yang Xuan curled his lips and said, "That's not certain. This matter is very troublesome. I have other things to do, so I won't tell you more. If you are really unsure about anything, just write to me."
The old Taoist priest watched Yang Xuan walk out and added behind him: "You really have nothing else to do?"
Yang Xuan suddenly remembered: "By the way, you can send me a few more apprentices. Ganzhou is a place of four battles. I cherish my life, so send me a few more apprentices so that I can save my life in a critical moment."
The old Taoist priest snorted: "I, Laojun Guan, only have so many disciples. Dong Tianbao was deceived by you, and the four Ouyang brothers also became your bodyguards. How many more do you want?"
Yang Xuan said dissatisfied: "That's the front line. There must be ten or eight people following me. Besides, if your apprentice follows me, you can also make achievements. If you get some credit, you can become a general or something when you come back.
You old Taoist priest are also honored."
The old Taoist priest was silent, squinting his eyes and thinking for a long time: "Okay, the poor Taoist will take care of this matter."
"You should hurry up so that I can give them an official position before I leave. I can go over there and claim my merits."
As soon as he came out of the cheerful mood, Yang Xuan was stopped by the servants of Prince Hui's family, saying that it was Prince Hui who invited him.
He had to give up going to the steel factory and went to Prince Hui's Mansion instead.
In the back garden, seeing Prince Hui smiling, Yang Xuan said unhappily: "Your Majesty, I see your expression, why do you feel a little gloating about your misfortune?"
Prince Hui stroked his beard and glared at him: "If you can't speak, just say a few words. Is it a disaster to go to the northwest border? It's a good way to get promoted and make a fortune."
"My lord, do you think I am someone who is willing to get promoted and make a fortune?"
Prince Hui was stunned for a moment and shouted: "Then what's wrong with asking you to make some contributions to the nation? As a Dasheng person, can you watch our people being trampled by foreigners? If it's not for fame or profit, you can't
For our nation?”
Yang Xuan was stunned by what he said, and nodded quickly. He himself was an angry young man once upon a time: "Your Majesty, you are right. As a Dasheng man, I should shed my blood for the sake of national justice. Huang
Sha will wear golden armor in a hundred battles, and he will never return Loulan until he breaks it."
Yang Xuan's sudden change shocked Prince Hui: "No need, no need. You are just going to supervise the army. You don't need to personally participate in the battlefield fighting."
Yang Xuan secretly laughed in his heart: "Your Majesty asked me to come, but you have something to tell me?"
Prince Hui stroked his beard, glanced to the side and said, "I have nothing to tell you, but there is someone who has something to tell you."
