In the Imperial Study Room of the Imperial Capital, Yang Rui watched with a headache as the several officials below were arguing, but there was no way out. The matter they were arguing about was very simple, that is, this year's autumn harvest had just ended, and people from all over the country
Taxes are being sent to the imperial capital. Just because these officials have not yet come to the imperial capital to grab food, these officials are quarreling.
An old man asked angrily: "I just want to ask if the Qin River needs to be rectified. Last year, the embankment burst and countless people drowned. If it doesn't be rectified this year, there will definitely be a civil commotion." At this time, there is no way.
His usual demeanor was to just roll up his sleeves and get started. But the Minister of Revenue could only nod his head helplessly.
Another old man said: "Qiongzhou has just established a county, and Guzhou County was seriously injured last time..." Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance still only nodded helplessly. Yang Rui listened impatiently to the following people.
At this time, Hong Zhu quickly came in from the side door and ran to Yang Rui at high speed.
Yang Rui frowned. He had already told him not to come to Xie Qiu Jue if there was nothing important. Hong Zhu was so happy that he didn't notice Yang Rui's frown. After saying these two words, "Your Majesty"
, Hong Zhu was speechless, gasping for air, and then handed the secret report he had just received to Yang Rui.
Hong Zhu's move made the following people unhappy. What they were discussing was a national matter. What else could be more important than what they were discussing. Yang Rui took the secret report from Hong Zhu and opened it.
Then Yang Rui's frown spread out, a smile appeared on his face, and finally he laughed.
"Okay...Okay...Okay..." Yang Rui said three good words in a row. Several people below looked at Yang Rui above with surprised expressions. They didn't know what made Yang Rui so happy. Then, several people
At the same time, he focused his attention on the secret report in Yang Rui's hand. Yang Rui quickly noticed the actions of the people below and asked Hong Zhu to show them the secret report in his hand.
Several people gathered together and looked at each other. "Your Majesty, Holy An, Chen Yu Wenfeng led his army back with a great victory. This northern expedition...beheaded more than 20,000...one million gold coins and their heads are being sent to the imperial capital."
On the way..." The beheading of more than 20,000 people and a million gold coins has blinded several people's eyes. Yang Rui said with a smile: "You continue to discuss and come up with a result for me..."
After saying that, Yang Rui laughed and left the imperial study room. Now Yang Rui was no longer in the mood to stay in the imperial study room and listen to the quarrels among them. After Yang Rui left, several people in the imperial study room focused their attention on
Yu Wen Ao. As the boss of the Ministry of War, of course he is here, but he has just been silent.
Yu Wen'ao's face was calm, as if he had never seen the secret report at all. Looking at the other people, Yu Wen'ao said: "Why are you guys looking at me? Let's finish the rest of the discussion. Your Majesty is still waiting for the results."
After hearing Yu Wen'ao's words, the other people unanimously said in their hearts: Old fox.
Going back in time, one month ago, Yu Wenfeng finally led his army into the territory of Great Qin. After returning from the expedition, the soldiers were undoubtedly in a happy mood, and so was Yu Wenfeng. Yu Wenfeng led the army all the way south and soon entered
After reaching the boundary of Guzhou County, Yu Wenfeng immediately ordered to stop.
This order puzzled many people, but Yu Wenfeng suppressed all objections. After two days of rest, the soldiers' nightmare came. They seemed to have returned to the days of the recruit training camp. Every day before dawn, the officers
He rushed into the tent and called them up. Training, training, all kinds of training, boring and boring training.
Yu Wenfeng had no choice but to do so. Logically speaking, the army had just returned from victory and should take the soldiers back to Jinzhou to rest and have a holiday. But the reality was cruel. The Hungry Wolf Army had just come off the battlefield, and many of the soldiers were filled with murderous intent.
It's scary. If they are released at this time, something will definitely happen.
Therefore, Yu Wenfeng ordered to rest and recuperate on the spot, hoping to temper some of the murderous spirit in the soldiers. With so many people in the Hungry Wolf Army, it was impossible to hide it from Yu Wenji when they approached Guzhou. The Hungry Wolf Army had just arrived on the first day
At night, Yu Wenji, dressed in black robe, appeared in Yu Wenfeng's main tent.
"Did it go well?" Yu Wenji broke the silence and asked proactively. Yu Wenfeng nodded. Then the main tent fell into silence again, and neither of them spoke. The words passed his lips several times, and Yu Wenfeng swallowed them again.
Finally thinking of his hungry wolf army and the rescued Qin people, Yu Wenfeng gritted his teeth and finally said: "I want to consolidate the state."
Hearing Yu Wenfeng's words, Yu Wenji nodded without hesitation, and then said: "Okay." After saying that, Yu Wenji said again: "This will take time..." Then Yu Wenji glanced at Yu Wenfeng
, and said: "Beifeng Army..." Yu Wenfeng shook his head and said: "The imperial capital needs such an army that has seen blood."
Yu Wenji nodded, indicating that he understood. Then Yu Wenji left the Hungry Wolf Army's station and took his people back to Guzhou. After Yu Wenji left, Yu Wenfeng rubbed his temples. The scene just now was better than his command.
The Hungry Wolf Army still had a headache. After a while, Wang Hao arrived at Yu Wenfeng's main tent.
Yu Wenfeng said: "Sir, the matter of entering Guzhou has been taken care of." Hearing Yu Wenfeng's words, he was surprised and then shook his head. Wang Hao remembered his original purpose and asked: "
General, what should we do with these countless cattle, sheep and trophies?"
Yu Wenfeng replied: "Of course, sell them all and turn them into gold coins." Wang Hao nodded, and then said: "I wonder if the general plans to send a copy to the imperial capital?" After hearing this, Yu Wenfeng understood the purpose of Wang Hao's visit. Yu Wenfeng
Feng shook his head and said, "If you don't tell me, sir, I really wouldn't have thought of it."
Wang Hao said seriously: "General, this is an important matter." Seeing the doubtful look on Yu Wenfeng's face, Wang Hao continued: "In the past two years, the financial situation of the imperial court has been not good. Others have taken advantage of it.
Gold coins, only the general is sending gold coins to the court, what will Your Majesty think?"
Seeing Wang Hao's meaningful look, Yu Wenfeng nodded and said, "Thank you, sir." Wang Hao continued: "General, you need to form your own staff now." After hearing Wang Hao's words, Wang Hao continued.
, Yu Wenfeng's face also shone. Wang Hao continued: "What the general is lacking now is a staff member who is good at handling civil affairs."
Then Wang Hao showed a wry smile on his face and continued: "Managing more than 20,000 Qin people is not an easy task." After hearing this, Yu Wenfeng finally smiled and said: "It turns out that Mr.
Attention." Wang Hao also smiled: "The general misunderstood Xiaosheng, it's just that each has his own strengths, Xiaosheng's strength is not in civil affairs." Yu Wenfeng nodded and kept this matter in mind.
The next day, when Yu Wenfeng just got up, a personal guard came in and reported: "General, someone wants to see you." Yu Wenfeng asked: "Who is it?" The personal guard said: "The person who came did not say anything, just said
They come from Guzhou." Hearing the guard's answer, Yu Wenfeng nodded and said, "Let them come in."
After a while, the personal guards walked into the main tent with two men covered in black robes. After entering the main tent, a familiar voice sounded: "General." After hearing the voice clearly, Yu Wenfeng spoke.
Said: "It turns out to be two adults." The two men in black robes took off their black robes and revealed their true bodies. They were Yu Hui and Tang Tong.
Yu Wenfeng said with a smile: "The two adults are really well-informed. They just arrived last night and are here today." The two of them smiled and said: "How could we not know about such a big move from the general?" Yu Wenfeng said with a smile.
Feng smiled, and then said: "I came just in time, I just need your help with something."
Hearing this, the two people hurriedly said: "General, just ask." Yu Hui and Tang Tong also got the news last night, but they were not Yu Wenji and could leave the city overnight. They could only wait until dawn today.
When they came out of the city, the two of them rushed over as soon as possible. They were actually showing their loyalty to Yu Wenfeng, saying that they were still standing on Yu Wenfeng's boat.
