Fu Song

Chapter 392
"Set up the appeasement envoy's office in Nanning?" Cen Zhong looked at Xiao Cheng who was sitting opposite him with some surprise, "Since the establishment of Guangnan West Road, the appeasement envoy's office has always been located in Guizhou. It’s going to be big, I’m afraid it will be unpopular and cause a lot of turmoil!”

Xiao Cheng didn't take it seriously: "Eldest brother, is it possible that you have gone to Guizhou now and got the pacifier from Tao Hongyuan, so that all the people in Guizhou will return to you and be loyal to you?"

"Of course not." Cen Zhong said: "Those people, if they can save face and keep a superficial calm, I'm afraid it's very good. In the next time, they can only slowly divide, win over, and dissolve. After all, as long as I In the position, there will always be people who have moved closer to form a new circle."

"Then how long do you think it will take?" Xiao Cheng said: "And can you confirm that during this period of time, those whose interests are bound to be damaged will sit and wait to die? Won't they use any tricks to trap you? "

"With the army in hand, who dares to act rashly?" Cen Zhong chuckled, his face full of murderous intent.

"Since the army is in hand, no one dares to act rashly, so why should we stay in Guizhou and spend our minds on these stupid things?" Xiao Cheng knocked on the table: "Elder brother, how many important things do we need?" Do it, where is the time to make excuses with them? For us, every quarter of an hour is precious."

"Move to Yongzhou and start a new stove?" Cen Zhong hesitated.

"That's right, let's start anew!" Xiao Cheng nodded emphatically: "Guizhou, Liuzhou and other places have a stable basic situation and a relatively stable economy. The appeasement government has always been established in Guizhou, and it is precisely because of the stability here. , the economy is developed, comfortable and you don’t need to worry too much. On the other hand, Yongzhou’s economy is far behind that of Guizhou. It's a place of grabbing, which makes it extremely exhausting."

"Exactly!"

"That's why Eldest Brother wants to move the Yamen of the Pacifier here." Xiao Cheng said: "Once the Yamen of the Pacifier comes here, more other Yamens and other institutions have to follow him. Senior Brother, the best way to go When the administrative organization comes here, it will definitely have a decisive impact on the overall situation here. Whether it is from the economic level or the security level, Yongzhou will undergo earth-shaking changes."

Touching his chin, Cen Zhong was thoughtful.

"Besides, when the time comes, those people who are stalking you will come here like flies!" Xiao Cheng said with a smile: "No matter how hard you try in these places in Guizhou, you will still look like that." Yes, but here in Yongzhou, with a little effort, you can make a big change in the situation here. And this is political achievement!"

Cen Zhong's eyes became brighter and brighter.

"These places have been poor for several lifetimes. When you come here, even if it's just to make their life a little bit better, so that they can barely eat enough, have a house to shelter from the cold when it's cold, and have clothes to hide their shame, you Bachelor Cen will become their master of the blue sky, and he will respond to everyone here, and maybe after a while, the people here will erect a statue of you, and maybe build a few shrines for you!" Xiao Xiao Cheng continued.

Cen Zhong laughed: "Little brother can joke, but it does make sense. The starting point here is low, but it is easier to do something. In Guizhou, I am afraid that more time will be spent with those People are intriguing. I can't clean it up. I can only kill a group, deter a group, and then recruit a group. If this is the case, Guizhou will have to find another proper person I went to take care of it. Is there someone for my junior brother?"

Looking at Cen Zhong's meaningful eyes on himself, Xiao Cheng spread his hands and said, "Eldest brother, don't try to poach my corner again, as you know, I'm desperately short of people right now! It's not going well, I really can't find good talents. After this meeting, I asked those members to go back and pick up some people for me, but I can also imagine that most of them will come after a long time. Number one, the guy who feels that his talents are underappreciated, I only hope to find a few truly buried talents from here, and the others will just make do with it. Unlike you, big brother, you have a lot of friends, and your master teaches. For a lifetime, there will be peaches and plums all over the world, and when you become the pacifier of Guangnan Xidao, you will be greeted, and talents will flock to you!"

Cen Zhong laughed. What Xiao Cheng said was really good. What is very difficult for Xiao Cheng now is the easiest thing for him.

"When everything is settled, when you want to hire someone, tell your senior brother, I will recommend it."

"Then it's decided first!" Xiao Cheng said with a smile: "Don't let me fall in love with someone, but the elder brother will hold it in his pocket and be reluctant."

"How is it possible?" Cen Chong said with a smile, "You asked me to move the Yamen to Yongzhou, and there are other considerations, right?"

"This senior brother must have seen it." Xiao Cheng nodded: "This time the matter between Ruan Qingzheng and Li Zhun is a surprise, but we can also put the matter of intercourse on the agenda. Located in Nanning, Yongzhou, it is also an excellent thing to promote this matter. The whole Yongzhou is unstable, not rich, not strong, and unstable, so how can we plan to co-chin?"

"Not bad!" Cen Zhong twisted his beard and smiled. To be honest, he has now regarded regaining Jiaozhi and resetting Annan as the first major event in his life. If he really wants to accomplish this, Cen Zhong will really go down in history of.

And if there is an opportunity to do such a thing, how many times can it appear in the world and across history?

Now that it has appeared, if you don't hold it firmly in your hands, you will be really stupid to the extreme.

A person's life is just a few decades, what are you planning?
Wealth money?For the officials who have achieved their position, it is just some subsidiary things, not worth worrying too much about.

As long as you still want to do something, as long as you are not greedy for ease, you must grasp such an opportunity and devote your efforts to it.

Once things are done, fame and power will follow. As for things like money, they will naturally come rolling in.

A comfort envoy like Tao Hongyuan really lost his position in vain.

I don't know why a senior official like him is still so obsessed with money?

"Yongzhou, Liuzhou, and Guizhou have become the central axis. As long as the senior brother firmly controls these three places, he will also firmly control the entire Guangnan West Road." Xiao Cheng said: "After a few years of operation, when the time comes With the cooperation of Ruan Qingzheng and Li Zhun of Guangyuan Prefecture, and the support of the army of our Federation, if we break into Jiaozhi in one fell swoop, we will have a chance of success."

Cen Zhong stood up and paced back and forth, "When Qianzhou, Guangnan West Road, Dali, and Jiaozhi will be united, the entire Southwest will be considered stable."

"Yes, the entire Southwest has settled down, so that even if something happens to the North, we, the Miao descendants of the Han Dynasty, still have a chance to make a strategic retreat and come back again." Xiao Cheng said.

"Are you so pessimistic about the situation in the north?" Cen Zhong was taken aback: "Do you think the Liao people will definitely go south?"

"It is a foregone conclusion that Yelujun will be in charge of the Liao Kingdom. Maybe he will ascend to the throne this year. After all, Yelu Hongde has been rumored to be in extremely bad health since the year before last." Xiao Cheng said: "As soon as Yelujun came to power, the Liao Kingdom The domestic dispute between the North and the South is bound to come to an end, and once Yelujun completes the integration of the North and the South, going south is definitely an inevitable thing."

"He needs to use the great feats he made in the south to conquer the Song Dynasty to stabilize his position as emperor and prove to the Khitan nobles that his choice is correct." Cen Zhong said: "And in the process, the Khitan nobles will also be captured by the Khitan nobles because of their military exploits. , wealth and gather around him, so that the whole Liao Kingdom is united."

"Yeluzhen has been doing this on Nanjing Road!" Xiao Cheng breathed out: "Hebei Road appeasement made Ma Xing alone, and he didn't get much support now. The court didn't believe that Yelujun would be here They went south in a very short period of time. They always thought that it would take Yelujun at least several years to stabilize the Liao Kingdom up and down, but they forgot that it was the Liao Kingdom, not the Song Dynasty. Let’s think about the problems of the Liao Kingdom.”

"So once the incident happens, the imperial court is very likely to be caught off guard!" Cen Zhong said: "So you are eager to solve the Southwest issue quickly in a short period of time, and then when something really happens, use the Southwest as your base camp and launch an attack from south to north?"

"I think so!" Xiao Cheng said frankly.

Cen Zhong stared at Xiao Cheng, and said: "The current thinking of the imperial court is also inseparable from your eldest brother Xiao Ding! Too many strategic materials, people, and money are tilting to the northwest, little brother, tell me something To be honest, you have worked so hard, do you really want to replace Zhao with Xiao?"

"I don't think so!" Xiao Cheng said frankly, "So what if Xiao replaces Zhao? I have told you this point of view long ago. The Liao Kingdom really went south, and when they won the greatest victory, it was their national power. The beginning of the overturn."

Cen nodded: "How is your recruiting going?"

"The indigenous people in Guangxi are tough and fierce. I have always liked their style, so I am planning to recruit a soldier here, and I am going to call it Guangxi Wolf Soldiers! The scale of [-] people is almost full now. , I will go back in two days!" Xiao Cheng laughed.

"How is the business going in Dali? It will take at least a year for Guangnan West Road to assist you in conspiring with Dali!" Cen Chong said: "If you want to move the Yamen to Yongzhou now, things will be complicated. Time will tell. Might be longer."

"Is it that easy to overthrow a country?" Xiao Cheng said, "Elder brother, let's put a solid foundation first. In the past two years, I have been sending a large number of people to infiltrate Dali, using money and conspiracy to open the way. Do everything you can to drive alienation, bribe and assassinate, and now monk Huiyuan has gone to Dali to preside over the overall situation of the secret war, and when the civil strife in Dali is unstoppable, it will be the best time for us to take action!"

"The conflict between the Duan family and the Gao family is almost their culprit." Cen Zhong said: "Now that the Gao family is in power, the Duan family's emperor is almost cornered, and the authority of the royal family has almost disappeared. But then again, Gao Yingde is really a good hand, he has been in power for the past two years, Dali is really peaceful and peaceful, and the national strength has grown steadily."

"If it weren't for this, they wouldn't dare to take in the remnants of Luo Dian!" Xiao Cheng said with a smile: "Gao Yingde still wants to take Luo Dian back, and then plots to come east! Don't you know that he looks east? At that time, I was also looking west. Luo Dian was the bait I threw out, attracting him to jump out. If he keeps his own place, how can we have a good excuse? We are not afraid that he will not come out, but we are afraid that he will shrink his head .”

"Gao Yingde now also needs outstanding military exploits to prove his ability to the subjects of Dali. I'm afraid he is already thinking about usurping the throne." Cen Zhong said: "So he needs a victory to write a footnote for his usurping the throne. In the past, he never dared to take Da Song's idea, but now Da Song is leaking from all sides and can't take care of himself, and in the northwest, it's you, a shady person who is in charge of the overall situation, maybe when the time comes Yingde will attack you under the banner of cleaning up the house for Da Song!"

"Eldest brother sees it clearly." Xiao Cheng smiled and said, "If he occupies our southwest land, he will take the Duan family off the throne and do it himself, so naturally, the Duan family will not miss him. If he wins, he will only use various methods to drag him back. Although the power of the Duan family is rapidly declining and they are overwhelmed by powerful officials, their name is still there, and they still support them to some extent. What about us, It is also to unite with the Duan family first and bring down the Gao family."

"Once the Gao family collapses, Dali will not collapse much!" Cen Zhong shook his head and said, "For the Duan family, both the left and the right will end in death."

"I've already thought about the name of Dali after it's taken down." Xiao Cheng shook his head and said, "Brother, how about Yunnan? The south of the colorful clouds is called Yunnan!"

The two held hands and laughed, you are thinking of Yunnan, and I am thinking of Annan, both of which have something to do with the word Nan.

"I won't see you off when you leave." Cen Zhong said, "I'm going to go to Guizhou first and have a good talk with Tao Hongyuan. Whether I can easily win the position of comfort envoy of Guangnan West Road depends on him. The result of the discussion."

"He has no choice. If he wants to leave decently, he has to make this deal with you!" Xiao Cheng said: "Otherwise, if you still recruit envoys, he will be ruined. At that time, maybe even his Tao family will have to turn around for several lifetimes, this multiple-choice question is easy to choose."

Cen Zhong laughed, from the time he found a way to come to Guangnan West Road to fulfilling his wish and being able to hold the highest authority in a place, it has not been more than two years, and these experiments of dreams have nothing to do with the young man in front of him. The junior brother can't get away with it.
