Fu Song

Chapter 70 Where to go
There was laughter in the study, Xiao Yu had not been so happy for a long time.

Even when he knew that he, the deputy envoy of the third division, was going to straighten up, he didn't feel much happiness.

Because he is very clear that, although he has jumped a big step from vice to normal, the problems he faces will only be ten times as many as before.

In fact, this has also been proved.

Just as Xiao Cheng had analyzed for him at the beginning, he was struggling in the three envoys, and every step he took, he was cautious. Even so, someone still dug a few holes for him.Fortunately, they were discovered in time by him, and he was careful to resolve them. Instead, he disposed of these digging guys.

However, those few petty officials were obviously nothing more than swordsmen who were pushed up. The real messengers behind the scenes, even if Xiao Yu knew who they were, couldn't move.

Fortunately, when Zhou Ting was the most difficult time for the first three divisions, he extended a helping hand.This made the already infamous top three envoys very grateful, and when they finally left the capital, they gave Xiao Yu the bottom line.Only then did Xiao Yu finally have such two powerful assistants within the three envoys.

But it was precisely because of the difficulties during this period that Xiao Yu paid more attention to Xiao Cheng's suggestion at the beginning. The initial rhetoric was fierce, and he took great steps to rectify the three envoys. Now it is full of dust. Yu never went to see him again.

As for the official family, they were more satisfied with Xiao Yu's cautiousness.

Every official takes on a new job and always wants to show his ability, which is not a bad thing.But Zhao Suo didn't want to have a major surgery in a department like Sanshishi.

Now Zhao Suo doesn't want to have any big turbulence on the financial plan, because he is planning to move on the border!If there is a problem with the financial plan, all the ideas will inevitably be lost again.

Zhao Suo was quite satisfied with Xiao Yu's stability.

This is the wealth of the big picture.

"Congratulations, eldest brother. Originally, it was only promoted to control, but this time, the official family actually promoted you as a commander. This way, eldest brother, you will become the youngest commander since Emperor Song established the country." Xiao Sincerely. "Given time, the youngest Taiwei in the Song Dynasty may be your eldest brother."

Xiao Ding did not have much joy, and said: "It is a good thing to be promoted. But listening to the official's meaning, I am afraid that I will have another appointment, and I will not be able to go back to Tianmen Village."

Xiao Cheng was taken aback: "What does the official family mean? What did he say?"

"The official said, let me rest for a while in Bianliang, and there are more important things waiting for me to do." Xiao Ding sighed. "How can you say that if you want me to still go back to Hebei Road?"

Xiao Cheng rubbed his chin, grabbed a few stubble that had just emerged, and said, "Could it be that the official family wants you to go to Shaanxi Road?"

"How do you guess it is Shaanxi Road?" Xiao Yu asked.

"My lord, the strategy of attacking Liaoning mentioned in the eldest brother's book is a three-way strategy, and now the only problem is the Shaanxi Road. It is clear that the army will be opposed to the army, and it is difficult for all parties to control Hengshan's enemies and friends. The fact that Zhang Kuo, the envoy of the Anhui government in Shaanxi, was dismissed for inaction, and Ma Xing, the former transport envoy who fought hard to take over, all shows that the focus of the government's next operation is not Hebei Road, but Shaanxi Road." Xiao Cheng said.

"It makes sense!" Xiao Yu said, "Since the officials admire your elder brother's bravery, they will definitely think of using your elder brother's talent to subdue the party, defeat Li Xu, and overcome Hengshan, thus gnawing away at the end of the three-way strategy. A hard bone."

"It's not impossible to really go to Shaanxi Road, but it's a pity that I have practiced the Guang Rui Army for many years!" Xiao Ding was a little distressed.

"Brother, why don't you ask the officials to let you take the Guangrui Army to defend Shaanxi Road!" Xiao Cheng said, "Now the Shangsi Army is going to the Heibei round to defend the frontier. The Guangrui Army is a battle-hardened elite. To use it on the Shaanxi Road, or to make room for the Fourth Army."

"You said it lightly!" Xiao Ding glanced at his second brother dissatisfiedly: "Do you think the Guangrui Army only has those [-] sergeants? What about their families? Most of them are dragging their families. When the time comes, what if some people are unwilling to leave? Without their families to follow, these soldiers can still have such high fighting spirit? On Hebei Road, they are defending their homes and hometowns, and when they reach Shaanxi Road, they are guest troops. Not to mention The problem of soil and water, just this feeling of homesickness, can make the combat power drop sharply."

"Brother, if you go to Shaanxi Road alone, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make a difference in a short period of time. Those local generals may not buy your account. Therefore, we still need to find a way to take Guang Rui Army with him. With the Guangrui Army here, big brother, you have confidence. Now that you are the commander, the Guangrui Army can be expanded to about [-] people. With these [-] people, even if the local soldiers on the Shaanxi Road are not good enough, as long as If they don't pull back, they can achieve success. After all, officials want to see results as soon as possible. Our official family is not a person with long temperament. If it takes a long time and nothing is achieved, he will be disappointed. Yu, I can't help but feel slack again."

Xiao Ding nodded slightly: "Relocating the town on such a large scale requires money. If there is enough money and food, things will be easier."

Xiao Cheng smiled and said: "Did Big Brother forget what the position of the lord is? With the support of the official family, the lord can openly allocate a special fund for this matter. On the Hebei Road, the eldest brother is not Said that Xia Fuzun has always been good to you? Although this person is a master and faction, he must not want to offend the hot and popular fried chicken like his eldest brother. How much is it worth to give the eldest brother an opening fee? Besides, the eldest brother and the Guangrui army have reclaimed thousands of hectares of fertile fields near Tianmenzhai these years. These are the private property of the soldiers and soldiers of the Guangrui army. Sell ​​him, and that's another sum of money."

Xiao Yu nodded frequently.

"Cheng'er is very right, in order to make meritorious deeds early, you really have to take this Guang Rui Army with you. If Your Majesty really intends to let you go to Shaanxi Road, I will contact Chen Xianggong and Luo Fengchen, and I will talk on the side. In a word, maybe it can make it happen.”

Looking at the fighting strength of these soldiers in the Guang Rui Army today, even Xiao Yu was reluctant to let his son leave this strong force.With this troop here, the son's meritorious service is just a matter of flipping the palm of his hand. If there is no more, it will take several years to train such a troop. Who can afford to delay these years?
"It's just this matter, I'm afraid that Cui Huaiyuan will embarrass you!" Xiao Yu frowned again, "He went to Hebei because he desperately wanted to do meritorious deeds, and he didn't even bother with a tough general like you. I let you run away, and I'm naturally unhappy in my heart. I'm just afraid that I will be held back."

"As long as the official family has made up their minds, Cui Xianggong's opinion is nothing to worry about. If he is far away from the center, his influence on the official family will be greatly reduced." Xiao Cheng said.

"Jiro is right!"

"Father, I suggest you now, it's best to send someone with experience at home to take a look at Shaanxi Road first, take a look, and find out for the eldest brother to move the town when the time comes. After all, it is a town of tens of thousands of people. Soldiers are easy to say, but the arrangement of family members is very important. As long as these family members are well arranged, the military will naturally be stable!" Xiao Cheng suggested again.

"Erlang's thoughts are very serious, so what's the matter!" Xiao Yu now sees this second son, the more he looks at it, the more satisfied he is, thinking about things basically without leaking, and thinking about every aspect very thoroughly: "The troops and horses are not moved, the food and grass will go first. , as soon as you, Guang Ruijun, leave here, the fields, houses and other things have already been settled, and the morale of Yu Jun will naturally have no effect. I will arrange this later. "

"Thank you, sir, and second brother!" Xiao Ding was also greatly relieved. In these matters, he was far behind his father and second brother.

Xiao Cheng smiled and looked at his eldest brother, there was one more thing he didn't tell Xiao Ding!Jiang Yingxue made a bet of [-] in several rounds in his name. According to the odds at the time, he must have at least a profit of nearly [-].If the eldest brother really wants to move the town of Shaanxi Road, then this money can help a lot.

However, I can only tell my eldest brother about this in private. If I reveal it in front of my father, it may reveal the truth. After all, my father is not as honest as my eldest brother. I can’t fool myself with these tens of thousands of bets. With the ability of the boss, it is really not difficult to find out the origin of this money!
In this way, the Tianxiang Pavilion that he has hidden will be revealed.

How can I thank myself for getting such a huge sum of money for nothing?
The Xiao family is beaming with joy, but there are still many people in Bianliang who can't sleep through the night.

The King of Chu, Zhao Jing, was one of them.

For Xiao Ding, the confidant of his second brother Zhao Zhe, no matter how he looked at it, he was not pleasing to the eye.

"Why can't he kill him? And let him get such great benefits for nothing?" An angry Zhao Jing overturned the table, and the cups on the table suddenly fell to the ground. Are these precious chinaware? It fell to pieces on the spot.

Xiao Ding not only won, but also received an interview from his father. It was originally just a control, and he was also promoted to commander on the spot, which made Zhao Jing suffocated.

"Your Highness, rest your anger!" A green-robed scholar stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, from another aspect, this may be a good thing."

"How's it going?" Zhao Jing said angrily: "My second brother will be back from Hebei Road soon. He is famous for his knowledge of soldiers. This time, the father wants to let the Fourth Army go to Hebei to fight. , he must be in charge of this matter again. Ziyu, tell me, where is the good thing?"

The one who was called Ziyu was a chaperone in Zhao Jing's family. His surname was Zhao Mingyuan. Although he was talented and learned, he failed many times. important staff.
