That night, Wu Dong, Wu Yong, Hu Yanzhuo, Zhang Bangchang, Shi Qian and others stayed in Yanmen Pass.
Yanmen Pass is a military city that was ruled by the Khitans for many years, so many Khitan habits have been inherited here.
Late at night, everyone sat together, made a fire to barbecue, and drank from a large bowl together.
Wu Dong and Zhang Bangchang were chatting and laughing happily, and the rest of the people were accompanying them.
Wu Dong pointed out the country. He started from Liangshanbo and occupied the entire north. During this period, I don’t know how many things he experienced and how many problems he dealt with! Coupled with the experience in his previous life, to this day, his mind and knowledge have far exceeded this.
At this time, there was almost nothing in the world that he didn't know, and almost nothing that he couldn't handle! Everything Wu Dong said casually made Zhang Bangchang think carefully and chew on it!
Zhang Bangchang felt more and more admiration in his heart. He thought to himself that this is the real master of the world! Relatively speaking, Zhao Ji is really nothing! Except for his birth, Zhao Ji is a strong man but only has the title of emperor.
There is no emperor inside!
"Great Governor, I only hope that I can be safe in the future, be able to keep my family, and keep my wealth!" Maybe he drank too much. At this time, Zhang Bangchang finally spoke his mind.
As a minister of a subjugated country, he would not expect to obtain a very high status at all! Being able to keep his family and wealth is already quite good! He is very self-aware. Even if he joins Liangshan now, Liangshan cannot completely trust him.
It is impossible for him to truly entrust the army or the people to manage it!
"Don't worry, I can naturally protect your family and property for you! In addition, all the officials of the Song Dynasty who are now relying on me in Liangshan will have extraordinary status in the future! Of course, they are just empty positions and will not hold actual power." Wu Dong.
road.
The so-called virtual positions are just honorary official titles. They do not have much power, and they cannot participate in the governance of the country! But in terms of title and rank, they are almost comparable to the central ministers.
"Thank you, Governor!" Zhang Bangchang said excitedly.
The more Wu Dong said that he would have no power in the future, the more relieved he felt, knowing that Wu Dong was talking to him sincerely.
"The number of people in Hebei is limited, but we can't get enough people from Hebei! If possible, go and attract the people from Shandong! Zhang Shuye from Shandong is difficult to bribe. He even stopped his men from accepting bribes. This matter
It's up to you!" Wu Dong said with a smile.
"Yes, Governor! This matter is extremely easy to handle! There are no officials in the Song Dynasty who are not greedy. He is not greedy for money, but his subordinates can never be greedy! At most, he can restrain his subordinates for a while, but it is impossible to restrain his subordinates forever!
I will bribe his officials and ask them to send the people to Hebei first, and then I will send the people to the north! There is also Henan, which has a large population, and I can send all the people there!" Zhang Bangchang said
.
"Very good!" Wu Dong nodded.
"There are many of my disciples in the imperial court. Once something big happens in the imperial court, I will send them to Yanjing City as soon as possible!" Zhang Bangchang said again.
"good!"
Wu Dong stood up. The stars were shining brightly at this moment, and the night was extremely beautiful! In the distance was the vast grassland beyond the Great Wall. Wu Dong felt extremely happy in his heart.
Now Liu Yanqing and Zhe Keqiu from the northwest have taken refuge in Liangshan, and Zhang Bangchang from Hebei has also taken refuge in Liangshan. Even in Bianliang City, Liangshan still has a super evildoer like Luo Zhenren! Now, the world has
There is not much that can stop Liangshan! The only thing that can stop Liangshan now is probably time. It will still take a little time to truly clean up the country! It needs to be planned slowly, and it cannot be done overnight.
"There is Song Jiang, also in Hebei! If there are any changes to this person, we must be notified!" After a while, Wu Dong said again.
"Yes! Song Jiang is a confidant of Taiwei Gao Qiu, and now the imperial army in Hebei is in charge of him! However, the Song Dynasty used culture to govern military affairs. I am the Xuanfu envoy of Hebei. His status is still below me. I can restrict him.
!" Zhang Bangchang said.
"I heard that your Xuanfu envoy controls the military rations. Is this true?" Wu Dong said.
"Yes!" Zhang Bangchang said.
"Control the military rations and don't give them to him! Or, just give him a little bit at a time to make his military morale unstable! Do you understand?" Wu Dong said.
"Yes!" Zhang Bangchang said.
Wu Dong nodded! Now that he has controlled Zhang Bangchang and restricted Song Jiang, Hebei can be said to be under control! What should he do next?
He just stood there, thinking slowly... Next is the issue of the examination system. Officials need to be selected through the examination system. This matter is extremely important and must be implemented within one or two years! If you wait until the future to collect
If we implement the exam system we want after the Song Dynasty, I'm afraid there will be huge resistance... There are also religious matters. Even after a thousand years in the future, technology will be extremely developed and people's ideas will be endless.
He was more active, and religion could not be eliminated. He had no idea of eliminating religion. He just hoped that China's local religion could develop and not be invaded by Western religions. Soon he thought of Luo Zhenren, Taiping Dao, Taiping Dao and
Other religions in Taoism are different. They only believe in Laozi and can be slightly transformed. Monotheistic religions seem to have stronger vitality than polytheistic religions, but the resistance to transforming religions is not small...
******
The next day, Zhang Bangchang said goodbye and left. He sought refuge in Liangshan and received Wu Dong's personal guarantee. He was quite satisfied! He decided to continue to move the people after he returned. On the one hand, he wanted to please Liangshan, and on the other hand, he wanted to send people to Liangshan.
Gold and silver! Last night, he promised Wu Dong again that he would not use gold and silver.
He could transport the people to the north, but Wu Dong still smiled and said that he must give him the gold and silver. There are many places where gold and silver are needed in Liangshan, but what should be given to him must be given to him. Governing the country requires atmosphere and requires
Only by being upright can we truly win over people's hearts and ensure that nothing goes wrong in Hebei!
Wu Dong, Wu Yong, Hu Yanzhuo, Shi Qian and others continued towards Yanjing City!
A few days later, they arrived at Yanjing City.
"This is Yanjing City! I, Hu Yanzhuo, will also be the Deputy Minister of the Military Department from now on!" When he arrived here, Hu Yanzhuo was extremely excited. The proud smile on his face could not be suppressed at all! Even if Wu Dong looked at him
At that time, he still looked so proud!
At this moment, he just wants to laugh uproariously!
He even had other ambitions in his heart. He felt that he could expel Hua Rong, control the entire military, and control all the armies! He looked at Wu Dong and even had the idea of controlling the entire Liangshan! But Wu Dong's prestige
It was too high, and he could not surpass Wu Dong in a short period of time, so he forcibly suppressed his ambition! He forcibly ordered himself to put away the smug smile on his face, but the smugness in his eyes could not be suppressed!
"The villain succeeds!" Wu Yong said secretly.
"Let's go!" Wu Dong said calmly.
Everyone entered Yanjing City and finally arrived at the imperial palace in Yanjing City.
"Grand Governor, let's go to the military headquarters now! As the deputy minister of the military department, I should take office immediately to handle state affairs!" Hu Yanzhuo said excitedly.
"Okay! Wu Yong, take him to the military headquarters!" Wu Dong said.
"Yes!" Wu Yong nodded.
When they got here, Hu Yanzhuo ignored Wu Dong and strode towards the military headquarters! Wu Yong had a sneer on his face. When he got here, Hu Yanzhuo was still so rampant, not knowing that his end had come!
Hu Yanzhuo felt light all over. They arrived at the military headquarters. There were many officers subordinate to the military headquarters. When he saw those officers, they all snorted coldly and did not take them seriously at all.
Wu Yong led Hu Yanzhuo forward and gradually entered the depths of the military headquarters.
"Wu Yong, where are we going?" Hu Yanzhuo frowned.
"Let's go to the room prepared for you." Wu Yong said with a sarcastic smile on his face.
"Okay! Hurry up! I can't wait!" Hu Yanzhuo laughed.
After walking some distance, they came to a palace and entered one of the rooms!
After entering the room, Hu Yanzhuo found several people sitting inside, and he suddenly felt something was wrong.
"Who are you?" Hu Yanzhuo asked hurriedly.
These people don't look like people from the military department. They are not wearing military uniforms, but are wearing gray clothes of Ministry of Law officials!
There is no decoration in the room in front of me. It looks extremely monotonous. It doesn't look like a place where the Deputy Minister of Military Affairs should stay!
"General Huyan! You have been arrested! Please cooperate with us and accept the investigation!" said a person in the room.
"What did you say?" Hu Yanzhuo was shocked.
"You are under arrest! Accept our investigation!" the man said again.
"Nonsense! I am the deputy minister of the military who just took office! What do you mean by being arrested? Damn it, you despicable thing!" Hu Yanzhuo shouted angrily.
"In Liangshan, everyone is equal! You dare to say such things here, you are really arrogant!" The man sneered.
"Wu Yong? Where is Wu Yong? Get out of here!" Hu Yanzhuo cursed loudly.
At this time, Wu Yong had already retreated from the room! The door of the room had been closed, and Wu Yong was sneering outside.
"Ah! I don't accept it! I am the deputy minister of the military! Who dares to arrest me?"
Hu Yanzhuo was so angry that he rushed forward. He wanted to knock all the people in front of him to the ground! However, less than a quarter of an hour later, he was already pushed to the ground by these people! His
There are no weapons in their hands, but those people are holding sticks, and those people's martial arts are already good, and if they cooperate with each other, there is nothing Hu Yanzhuo can do!
Hu Yanzhuo was pushed to the ground, and he was still in disbelief! The faces of Wu Dong, Wu Yong and others passed before his eyes, and he was extremely angry...
"Hu Yanzhuo, now tell me about your corruption! We don't want to use punishment!" said the official of the Ministry of Law.
"What corruption? That's nonsense! I'm not corrupt at all!" Hu Yanzhuo said loudly.
Several officials from the Ministry of Law looked at each other, and then the next official took out a stack of paper and began to read!
"In March of the year before last, you accepted a bribe of 10,000 taels of silver and promoted a platoon leader to the position of regimental leader. Is this true?" came the voice of an official from the Law Department.
"How do you know?" Hu Yanzhuo stayed there for a while.
"In October last year, you intercepted 100,000 taels of silver for the repair of the Yellow River Channel. Is this true?" the official from the Ministry of Law asked again.
Officials from the Ministry of Law told one by one the bribes Hu Yanzhuo had accepted over the years, and there were dozens of them! Hu Yanzhuo was extremely shocked, but he did not admit these things at all!
"It doesn't matter whether you admit it or not. What's important is that the relevant officials have already admitted it!" said the Law Ministry official.
"They are framing me! They are talking nonsense!" Hu Yanzhuo shouted loudly.
No matter what the officials of the Ministry of Law say, he will never admit it! It is impossible for these officials of the Ministry of Law to torture him seriously! Hu Yanzhuo's status is of great importance. They also received orders from Wu Dong before and would not torture Hu Yanzhuo.
of.
Hu Yanzhuo's wife only received the news of Hu Yanzhuo's arrest two days later. She felt as if the whole world had collapsed. She came to the palace crying and wanted to see Wu Dong.
