In late February, above the Huai River, the Rushuikou at the junction of Caizhou, Gwangju, and Shunchang Prefecture was eastward. A small fleet of ships was slowly moving upwards against the current, while the trees on both sides of the river were at the same time. With green bonuses, tens of thousands of troops, either riding or stepping, are also heading westward towards the Jiahe River.

At this time, on the north bank of the river embankment, Yu Shi Zhong Cheng, who came out to inspect the military discipline, and Zhang Deyuan were chatting with several subordinate supervisory Yu Shi, recent idle officials, and even a few white-body scribes.

"Shunchang Mansion, whose real name is Yingzhou, plus Caizhou in the west, although it belongs to the west of Beijing, it has been the heart of Huaixi since ancient times. It is almost known as the Huaixi dynasty. Taiwei Han used the Huaixi system as an envoy to live here. , It is worthy of the name." Zhang Jun said casually for the first time, and then shut up, as if he was self-respecting and wanted to hear other people's opinions.

It can only be said that although Zhang Deyuan is only 30 years old, after the Jingkang Rebellion and the ups and downs of the year, he has settled down as the number one confidant of Zhao Guan's family in Hezhong, and he has faintly gained a bit of superiority.

"Xiantai's statement is quite true." It is known from the supervisory Yushi that the overhead Xiantai turned enemies into friends with Taiwei Han when he was in Palgong Mountain. Recently, he has been getting closer and closer, and he has a faint ally. The last two prominent palace servants are vacant, but they are in a hurry. "And Huaidong and Huaixi seem to have heavier jurisdiction in Huaidong, but Huaixi is closer. The officials would rather let Han and Zhang change the defense zone, and also have Prince Han come here and put them in front of them. He came to clean up Huaixi, Jingxi, and Jingxiang in an attempt to open up Nanyang's maneuvers, which is obvious."

Zhang Jun twisted his beard and nodded slightly.

"How unbearable is it to be petting?" At this moment, a middle-aged man who followed suddenly stationed on his horse and yelled in public. "Han Taiwei is a famous national general. The officials regard him as Huaxi affairs because of the overall situation in the future. Is it because of relatives and arbitrarily appointing this?!"

Everyone looked back and saw that this man was about thirty years old, but he was extraordinary. Although he was dressed as a civil servant, he was immediately hung with a long spear and bow, and his waist and sleeves were all tied with the recently popular cowhide belt, but he was a bit nondescript.

The supervisor Yushi was reprimanded in front of his immediate superior, and he was naturally dissatisfied, but because the immediate superior was on his side, it was not easy to attack. He could only tolerate immediately and asked: "Who is this step, what year's Jinshi, and what should I send? ?"

"Jianzhou Liu Ziyu is not a jinshi in any discipline. He is only a doctor in the North Korea and has not been sent." This person was not afraid of hearing this, and directly confronted.

And this supervisory official thinks a little bit, and he knows that the other party’s foundation... is not a jinshi, and can be a fifth-rank civil official and casual official at the age of 30. He must be from Eunyin, and there is no dispatch, and it is inevitable. It was Jingkang who hadn't kept up after the chaos, and found the group of people walking around... So he couldn't help but sneered and sneered:

"It turns out that Liu Yannei, who came to look for officials after he was walking in peace and sounded well, did you think he was a handsome talent?"

"Jingkang is in trouble, my father hangs on a beam to commit suicide and sacrifices himself to the country. I am the eldest son. I am the eldest son. I am the eldest son, and because of the hatred of the country and the family, I don't share the sky with the golden people. How can I become a person seeking stability? This Liu Ziyu also changed color for a while. "Also, I'm going to talk about the matter. What I'm talking about is why the officials settled Tai Wei Han in Huaixi, and how did they use Enyin's background to attack private individuals? The country is in dire straits. Is the Imperial History of the Central Government of this class now?!"

This is basically a one-off, but the words revealed that his father had just arrived in the country soon after the disaster, he must be a well-known person in the world, so even Zhang Jun couldn’t pretend to be deaf and dumb, so he took the initiative to say: "Dare to smell it." High discussion!"

"I dare not ask Lao Xiantai." Liu Ziyu didn't seem to be an old angry youth either. Facing Yu Shi Zhongcheng who was about the same age as him, he immediately bowed his hand in reply and went down the steps. "It should be noted that the secret of Taiwei Han's appointment is actually above the word Nanyang..."

Zhang Jun remembered the recent comments made by the imperial court, his heart moved slightly, and he couldn't help leaning forward immediately: "Please give me a detailed explanation."

"It's simple." Liu Ziyu, who was resting on the embankment, was also slightly solemn. "The constitutional platform will know if you think about it. The officials are determined to be stationed in Nanyang for the sake of the overall situation. This is not wrong, because if you want to regain the world, you must get the Guanxi Qiangbing and the Southeast Caifu together. But now the war is undecided, based on military tactics. For Nanyang to be the accompanying capital, there must be two big problems in the future. One is money. Specifically, how to ensure that the southeast and Bashu wealth gather in Jingxiang to raise the army. For this, the officials used Li Gongxiangzhi Heavy, helping the Empress Dowager and the emperor heir in Yangzhou is already a wonderful move, and it is really not a financial talent to play, so I won't say much...but the other one is how to defend!"

Zhang Jun's eyelids twitched.

"It should be noted that Nanyang is known as the basin, with one side extending in all directions and one side faintly surrounded by mountains, which can be guarded. But in fact, on the northeast side of Nanyang, there is a huge gap through Yingchang Mansion (the later generations of Yancheng, Luohe, and Xuchang). Directly to the Central Plains, through this flat ground passage, the army is coming and going, the cavalry is speeding, not stagnant!" Liu Ziyu continued to say calmly. "For this reason, apart from setting up defense zones in the north with Zongliu Shou, Zhang Longtu, and Zhang Taiwei, and connecting them as a front line for reuse, the official family also used Han Taiwei as the waist, based on Huaixi, This is just to prevent Taiwei Han as the last to rely on, or rely on the enemy, or take advantage of it to close the door and fight the dog! Compared with this treatment, such as cleaning up the surrounding area of ​​Nanyang and opening up The place of maneuver, on the contrary, seems insignificant!"

After listening, everyone nodded, or disapproved, just went to see Zhang Xiantai who was the leader.

However, just as Zhang Jun was about to speak, he saw that the big ship in the river suddenly approached the south bank, and then a few servants and the squad approached to the north bank in the small boat. Seeing Yu Shi Zhongcheng here, he waved far away.

Zhang Deyuan knew that the officials had something to call, so he stopped talking. Instead, he turned over and got off his horse. He took a small notebook from the backpack on the horse's buttocks behind him, picked up a small piece of charcoal from it, and placed it on the saddle. Spread it out, leaning over to record, and asking again: "Liu Ziyu, from Jianzhou, dare you ask what word you want to take? Age? And father's name?"

"Zi Yanxiu, thirty-two years old, my father is Liu Yuyun, a former scholar of the Imperial Palace!"

Zhang Jun, who was lying there, raised his head in astonishment: "It is actually Liu Zhongyan's eldest son?!"

Liu Ziyu just wanted to say again, the small boat in the river over there was approaching, and Zhang Jun hurriedly put away his notebooks, and went down with a backpack. When he came to the river, he hurriedly turned his head and said, "Brother Yanxiu, again After Zhongliang, please stay calm and not restless. Whenever I have the opportunity, I will recommend myself to the Imperial Front! It must be a good assignment with the next one who can display his talents!"

After that, before Liu Ziyu could react, Zhang Jun boarded the ship with his bag on his back and went to look for the official Zhao's house on the other side.

Zhang Jun was gone and knew that Liu Ziyu was a well-founded figure, so a group of people looked at each other, and they just broke up, but before leaving, they inevitably left behind something like, "Come to find the way to the constitutional platform after the scholar of the Imperial Palace", "It's actually the ridiculous words like this person's promotion to the constitutional platform today".

Not to mention that these trips were disturbing in the periphery. On this afternoon, Zhao Guan’s family suddenly stopped the big ship and held a temporary imperial meeting in Gwangju on the south bank of the Huai River, but this time the meeting was held in the tent in the wild. The atmosphere is obviously a bit bad.

The reason is actually very simple. The so-called "insignificance" that Liu Ziyu just said is imminent.

"I'll teach you all that Ding Jin has changed in front of you."

The first to speak and introduce the problem was the pivotal minister Wang Boyan. This person has become more active since he was appointed as Nanyang to accompany him. He has long lost his cautiousness and does not know if it is an illusion. At this time, he is clearly introducing difficult things, but It always makes people feel that he has a great look on his face, as if he was saying something happy. "As soon as the official entered Gwangju, the Privy Council called this person to the front, but this person hesitated and did not dare to come easily. In the end, the official invented the decree, but he left with thirty thousand people. Seeing the car, he is stationed in Zhu Gao Town, forty miles ahead, and seems to be anti-visitor-oriented."

"Ding Jinben is not credible."

After everyone heard it, it was naturally the prime minister who spoke first, and probably because Li Gang didn't use it, Lu Haowen and Lu Xianggong seemed to be a little bit more energetic. "He was a thief who took advantage of the chaos and was hurriedly forced to surrender before the battle. It is not surprising that he behaved like this."

"Not bad." The third Xianggong Xu Jingheng also took the opportunity to speak. "If you remember correctly, this dog was supposed to be stationed in Zhugao Town. It was only when he was called, as if he had retreated without authorization. It can be seen that the martial artists are not like Zhang Jun and Han Shizhong, and Yue Fei and Zhang Rong are even rarer... …"

The three prime ministers said some nonsense at the beginning, but Yushi Zhongcheng Zhang Jun, who was still carrying a backpack, couldn't help but squint to see Zhao Guan's house, who was sitting still, and then he couldn't help but feel a sudden heart...It turned out that he was sitting in a place at this time. Under the colorful peach blossom tree, the Zhao official's house was motionless, and his expression was calm. If he was not in a red robe, he would be like a Taoist cultivator, and seemed to ignore everything.

However, how Zhang Xiantai, who is good at observing words, does not understand, the official family is waiting for someone to speak really useful words-how Zhao official family wants to deal with Ding Jin, not what Ding Jin should have done!

However, Zhang Xiantai understood even more that this time it was an old problem with the official family, and he did not understand everyone's words, because the two Dongfu ministers had clearly expressed their solutions in the public words. At this time, it was time to come out and help the officials to explain a little bit.

But having said that, Zhang Deyuan was just about to speak, but couldn't help but look at the unmoved Bachelor Kobayashi. After spending a long time with the Yutang Bachelor of the city palace, he always felt that he was a little aggressive...

Of course, human nature is hard to change. What's more important is that Zhang Xiantai knows who his position and power come from, so after all he dare not neglect. While he hesitated, he has already taken steps to inquire:

"Dare to ask the two mates, but the two warriors who think that Ding Jin is a mere thief, don't need to care too much about these, but can help and resettlement, and leave it useful? So there is no need to use strong?

Zhao Guan's family finally moved slightly, as if awakened.

"I don't think this person is guilty, but if I can use the court's grace to control a little, then why bother with him?" Xu Jingheng didn't seem to understand why this Yushi Zhongcheng said it. This kind of nonsense, but Lu Haowen had been in front of Zhao official's house for a long time these days, but he suddenly realized that he couldn't help but explain to Zhang Jun and Zhao official's side. "Officials, the officials thought that Ding Jin could be a little more generous and give him a little reward so that he could retreat... There are three reasons."

"Speaking." Zhao Jiu finally spoke thoughtfully.

"First, the most important task at this time is to quickly reach Nanyang to settle people's minds. Everything can be done after taking a foothold in Nanyang. It is not appropriate to be involved in right and wrong on the road and delay time."

"It makes sense." Zhao Jiu nodded slowly.

"Second, after all, Ding Jin still has 30,000 soldiers and horses, which is slightly more than the total number of soldiers and horses in the army. What's more, our army is divided between the two sides of the strait, and the strong soldiers are all on the north coast? It may not be possible. Moreover, if it is not handled properly, 30,000 soldiers will be scattered into Gwangju, which will poison the people."

"It makes sense." Zhao Jiu continued to think.

"The third is Huaixi, Jingxi, Jingxiang, and after Jingkang, around Nanyang, there are so-called bandits, rebels, gangsters, tyrannical forces, defeated soldiers, and those who are unstable after recruitment, such as Ding Jin. Too much. Today I deal with Ding Jin, but I don’t know how the bandits in the back should behave? The key is to make an aggressive move at this time. How should Fan Qiong, who is supporting the court and taking possession of Xiangyang, respond?"

"What Lu Xianggong said is indeed very reasonable." Zhao Guanjia nodded for the third time.

"So, please send an envoy to Zhugao Town to give him a small reward and let him retreat temporarily to make way for the road." Seeing the official's repeated approval, Lu Haowen reassured him to repeat it again. Own opinion. "After Ding enters the defense zone and arrives at Dingcheng, I have joined Priscilla Yuwen, Liu Zhengyan, Miao Fu, and Liu Yan, so why not make the next step."

"Did the two magnates Xu and Wang see the same way?" Zhao Guanjia continued to nod and looked at the other two again.

Xu Jingheng and Wang Boyan looked at each other and felt it was OK, but they bowed their heads and said yes.

Zhao Guanjia still nodded, but did not give an order, but looked directly at Zhang Jun.

When Zhang Xiantai moved in his heart, he was ready to refute.

However, Zhao Guanjia only swept away from Zhang Jun and Xiaolin Bachelor, and without turning his head back to Yang Yizhong, he blurted out: "Let Han Shizhong and Wang De come in."

After a short while, Han and Wang appeared directly under the peach blossom tree in the amazement of a crowd of civil servants, as if they had been summoned before, and the Xianghou was nearby.

"Ding Jin's matter was originally sent by you to inspect Ma Cha, so I won't say more." Zhao Jiu easily avoided the etiquette of the two. "And just now when you talked about this matter, you talked about three difficult points. I will ask you one by one... If you are asked to settle Dingjin, will it be settled quickly, and it will not be delayed for a long time?"

Han Shizhong and Wang Deju were fierce generals at the time. They both held their heads up and obeyed. But upon hearing this question, the gap was immediately apparent. Wang De hesitated for a while, as if there was no plan or success, but Han Shizhong simply bowed his hands in reply: Don't worry, it can take as little as three days, and as many as five days, and the minister can end this matter!"

Zhao Jiu nodded slightly and smiled: "This is why I called Liangchen in front of him...Secondly, Ding Jinbu had 30,000 people, and he had robbed Gwangju and Caizhou before, with abundant military resources and many soldiers. , The ministers are worried that once they lose their way, the rout will be dispersed into the surrounding area. Can you stop it?"

"The minister will never disperse the rebellious army!" Han Shizhong replied simply once again with a finger to the sky.

"That's it, the three evils are only two of them, it is enough." Zhao Guanjia smiled again. "But what else can you say?"

"But I beg the officials and civil servants to cheat Ding Jin!" Han Shizhong ignored the dazed expressions of the three men around him and Wang De, and still answered simply, but smiled awkwardly. "However, if the officials can still calmly send the ceremonial ceremonies forward, the ministers will surely be faster and more stable..."

"The minister is willing to meet Ding Jin!" Before Han Shizhong's words fell, Hu Yin from Zhongshushe turned out of the queue and said boldly, which also shocked the hearts of Zhang Jun and Xiaolin.

"That's it, let's not delay." Zhao Guanjia raised his hand to indicate that he actually stood up directly, as if he had passed the resolution harmoniously with the two ministers.

At this time, Lu Haowen and Wang Boyan were nothing but Xu Jingheng, the newly returned Xu Jingheng, finally couldn't hold back, and went out to face each other: "The official!"

"Xu Xianggong!" Zhao Jiu, who stood up, suddenly leaned on his belt and said, taking the initiative to cut off the opponent. "Today, I will not only ask you alone, but also about the princes in front of you... Why was the world troubled before, and how will peace be in the future?"

Xu Jingheng and others were all startled.

"According to my opinion, the world is turbulent, the inner is Wen Tianwu, the outside is the war of resistance, but the two saints actually descended from the world." Zhao Jiu slowly and right, as if he had already prepared words. "So, I want to bring the world back to peace, but I want the civil servants not to love money~www.readwn.com~The military minister will not hesitate to die! And I should also try my best to stick to the great government, no matter how difficult it is, never waver! You say, don't you? "

Below Lu Haowen, Xu Jingheng, Wang Boyan, as well as Zhang Jun, Lin Jingmo, and many other officials who were walking in the line, including Han Shizhong, were all awe-inspiring, so they quickly saluted and called their lives.

"Actually, I can bear other things." After embezzling some famous sayings to calm the scene, the official Zhao blushed slightly, and instead took the initiative to explain a little. "Before Dante entered the Shouzhou war, the first rat at both ends, and even ran away after hearing the wind. It almost caused a catastrophe, but I really can't bear it! You must know that you and Li Xianggong before, all think that the warrior can use it without causing chaos. , But I can tolerate all warriors, but I can’t stand them to retreat! This time I move to Nanyang, if I can’t take advantage of the situation to be serious about military discipline, organize the place, and not to mention how to use this as a confidant in the future to come to the royal army. Isn’t it too wrong to just talk about Liu Guangshi and Liu Taiwei on Palgong Mountain?"

After Lu Xianggong, many people heard the words and thought of the situation that night, and even felt that the official performance is much more reasonable now...this is progress!

PS: Thank you, Mr. Mu, the leader of the Silver League, Camille... Yesterday, they said that the two and a half leaders did not show up at the front desk. Today, the Silver League is directly... But I really didn't save the manuscript... Ashamed of high blood pressure is about to commit.
