Royal Road - Chapter 248

[Chapter 247 | City]

“Liang Zixi really evacuated half of the troops?” Wang Yanduan asked calmly after taking the case.

Huangmen Shilang, who went to Yecheng to pass the edict, replied cautiously: “That’s true! With General Yi’s posture that day, the lower official thought he was going to refuse the edict. Who would have guessed that the Bingzhou side would do such a thing, and immediately asked him to change it. I

made up my mind.”

This Liu Shilang was also quite frightened.

At that time, when he arrived in Yecheng, he had just finished reading the edict when he was placed under house arrest by the ferocious Jiehu.

He thought that this group of soldiers saw through the thoughts of the court and wanted to kill him, as if he had not received the edict!

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a few days, the situation has changed.

The two sides seemed to have torn their faces for some reason, and most of the cavalry was recalled by Bingzhou, and a lot of property was also taken away, leaving an empty shelf for General Yi.

General Yi did not say a word and accepted the order.

Although his face was terribly ugly, it didn’t hurt anyone’s life after all, and he was politely sent back.

This is obviously Situ’s alienation scheme at work!

In the seat, Wang Yan also stroked his beard and smiled: “Liu Shilang has worked so hard on this trip, he really helped the court.”

By now, the situation has become extremely clear.

Liang Zixi was afraid that he did not want to give up this confidant, and wanted him to reject the decree and return to Bingzhou.

But being confused by the power, Yi Yan stayed, and only kept his cronies.

The soldiers next to him were all taken back by the Bingzhou side.

Now they want money and grain but have no money and grain, and they have no one, and they have become a lonely army.

Such a lonely army, naturally, it is necessary to take advantage of it and use it for one’s own use.

Let’s allocate money and food to Ye first, and draw all those Jiehus over here.

Liang Zixi has won many battles over the years, and it can be said that he is in the limelight.

Most of the battles have Yiyan’s name.

Such a brave general is probably no less than Gou Xi, a confidant of the King of the East Sea.

What if such a general had obeyed his orders?

In this way, the governor of Jizhou was also elected as a reliable person.

After just thinking for a moment, Wang Yan made up his mind, smiled and sent Liu Shilang away, then picked up a pen and went to Jingzhou.

※

For a city that has been washed and swept away, it will never take a short time to recover its vitality.

What’s more, Yecheng was robbed twice in three years.

People in the city, who is not panicking?

However, during this period of time, the house still stranded in the city clearly felt the difference from the past.

This group of ugly cavalry soldiers like tigers and wolves took over the city, but uncharacteristically, they did not take advantage of the chaos.

Instead, the woman who was snatched was sent back to her home intact.

Those whose houses were burned were also arranged to go elsewhere.

There are also officials who came from nowhere, open warehouses and put grain in an orderly manner, provide relief to the hungry, bury corpses, and give medicines to prevent epidemics.

At an unimaginable speed, the hearts of a city were settled.

Yecheng is the hometown of Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu. In fact, the people are greatly benefited by Sima Ying.

For the cowardly and cowardly Sima Teng, the king of Dongyan, he had no good feelings for him.

Now that a group of people has changed the management, it is like going back to the same day.

After the chaos, what is needed is such silent care.

Therefore, even the people who had been frightened by the bandits gradually accepted the troops stationed in the city.

Who made these people not look like soldiers at all?

After more than half a month of delay, it was almost due that there was a new appointment as the Jizhou tsar.

“I didn’t expect General Yi to have the talent of Anmin.” He originally thought that Ye City would be a mess, and the people would not be able to survive.

Unexpectedly, Wang Ping was a little surprised when he saw such a scene.

You know, he was mentally prepared before he took office.

If it wasn’t for Uncle Cong, how could he accept such a mess?

Wang Ping also comes from the Wang family in Langya, but his reputation is far less than Wang Yan’s beloved younger brother Wang Cheng, or his younger brother Wang Dun.

It’s just that he has self-knowledge, and is very flattering to Wang Yan, and he has found out what the other party likes.

It is precisely because of this that he was recommended by Wang Yan to be promoted to the prefect before the two.

However, this Jizhou prefect, I am afraid it is not very easy to be.

Not to mention the bandits who are constantly on the move, and Bingzhou and Youzhou, who are in a precarious situation.

If you are not careful, you might even turn into a battlefield.

Wang Ping really wanted to stay out of politics for the rest of his life, but how could he be willing to give up the title of Inspector?

Fortunately, Wang Yan made it clear, let him win over this Jie general, and be able to defend Yecheng.

This really makes sense!

Yi Yan looked at the newly appointed governor, and his eyes became colder: “The governor of the king said seriously, these are the actions of the military officers. If the governor can see the past, he can also be hired.

” seal up?

Wang Ping frowned, but quickly said with a smile, “This is natural. This official first came to Yecheng, and he has to work with the general to maintain the situation in Jizhou.

”

Anyway, Yecheng had been slaughtered before, so he couldn’t make up the team of the governor.

He brought some confidants of his own. There are quite a few who are good at talking and strategy, and not many are good at managing politics.

Since this person takes credit, it’s okay to reward him.

Yi Yan nodded: “Before, more than half of the defenders of the city were killed, and they should have more troops and horses. I have to ask the envoy for food and military resources.”

Listening to him replacing “the governor” with “the envoy”, Wang Ping’s Eyebrows are more stretched.

This is a rush to expand its power.

Also, how many men and horses Yiyan led in Bingzhou before.

When we arrived in Jizhou, there were only 2,000 horses left, how could we bear it?

Moreover, the defense of Jizhou is quite important, and it is impossible to send troops to the counties to suppress the bandits and pacify the chaos.

The more soldiers and horses, the better.

“General Yi can rest assured that these officials will speak to the court. As long as a state can be pacified, money and food are trivial matters.” Wang Ping agreed.

“Thank you so much.” Yi Yan thanked.

Wang Ping smiled slightly: “It will be the first day of the festival soon, and I will also hold a banquet to reward the officials who have made merits, and I will also invite General Yi to appreciate the honor.”

This is the first step in building a relationship.

Yi Yan’s face didn’t change, he just nodded yes.

Wang Ping snorted coldly, no wonder Liang Zixi was so angry that he broke up with this person.

This Hugou face is disgusting and cold, where is it easy to make friends?

However, people always have some weaknesses, as long as they are willing to pay the capital, they can always exchange for the loyalty of the other party.

The two just said a few words like this, and then Wang Ping sent someone off.

Looking at the empty prefect’s mansion that had been robbed long ago, he sighed slightly.

This mess, I don’t know how long it will take to clean up.

Wait until Zhengdan and then slowly toss.

“General, the officials have already entered the governor’s mansion to take over various government affairs.” The army Sima Jiang Ying replied in a low voice.

Yi Yan nodded.

The officials sent from Bingzhou this time have all been incorporated into the army.

Before the governor dispatched by the imperial court arrived, he took over the government affairs of Yecheng.

Once it is organized and others want to replace it, it will take a lot of effort.

Those scholars who are accustomed to talking and not doing their jobs properly, how can they have such energy?

Most of them are pushing the boat along the river, and they are sent out as a favor.

These little officials seem to be inconspicuous, but without them, the decree cannot even be reached.

And the one sent by the imperial court this time is really a mediocre who wants to win over and reuse him.

On this point, Zhang Canjun did not expect it wrong.

In this way, the military and civil affairs are all in control, and this city of Ye is still in the hands of the lord.

“Conscript now. It’s not convenient for Jizhou to settle farmland right now, so we need to think of ways to pay for it. In the spring of next year, I will go on an expedition to suppress bandits!” Yi Yan said coldly.

A city is still too little.

Yi Yan was not worried that he would use the imperial troops, so he naturally wanted to recruit new soldiers and train them well.

There are many places where Jizhou has suffered from military disasters. Wang Jun has swallowed several cities before, and he cannot be left behind.

Before the two states go to war, they need to separate a piece of isolation belt.

Jiang Ying nodded quickly: “Xiaoguan knows. I heard that the governor is going to hold a banquet in Zhengdan? The general should take more precautions so as not to shake the army’s heart.”

Who can guarantee that these soldiers will not be dazzled by wine, beauties, and gold and silver fans ?

If there is a change in the heart of the Tiger Wolf Camp, things will be troublesome.

Unexpectedly, Yiyan didn’t care: “It’s okay. Wang Ping is not the lord.”

Maybe no one in this world can treat them like the lord like the lord.

No matter how well the cover up was, facing Yi Zhang, Wang Ping still had a condescending arrogance and disgust in his demeanor, which he couldn’t hide at all.

In the tiger and wolf camp, everyone came from poor backgrounds, and they were either servants of the city households or refugees who surrendered to the army.

These people may have never been respected by others in their lifetime.

No identity, no status, and even food and clothing are in jeopardy.

And the Lord, gave them everything.

Who is in the bag and doesn’t have a few medals?

Whose name does not have a few acres of military fields?

Money, women, these are all things outside the body after all, if there is no dignity, what is the difference from a wild dog begging for food?

Once a person stands up and wants to kneel down again, it will be difficult.

What’s more, there are a lot of Jiehu in the tiger and wolf camp.

He is still so arrogant to him as the commander of the army, will Wang Ping really buy it off?

I’m afraid it’s just pretending to give some rewards.

It’s a pity that they were never those weak and humble soldiers.

Hearing Yi Yan’s words, Jiang Ying breathed a sigh of relief, and after clarifying a few things, he retreated.

Yi Yan didn’t rest immediately, but lit the candlestick, spread out the pen and ink, and recorded what he did today.

Originally, when fighting, he would sum up the gains and losses of the war.

This is what the Lord taught him.

Although Jiang Ying is on his side now, civil affairs should still be dealt with.

A good memory is always better than a bad writing. These cumbersome things should also be remembered clearly.

Do these homework.

He put down the pen, hesitated for a moment, reached out and opened the wooden box placed in the corner.

In the box, lies a jade Buddha.

The Buddha was sitting on a lotus platform, sitting in a cross-legged position, with his long and narrow eyes slightly closed, posing a posture of knotted seal.

The jade pendant is not very big, but the carving is incomparably fine, and even the folds of the silk robe on the Buddha’s body are slender and soft, clearly visible.

Not to mention, it was completely different from the handsome color of the Buddha statues at that time.

It’s coming soon.

As a gift for the New Year, he stayed by that person’s side.

But this year, can this gift that has been carved for a year still be given?

Sitting at the desk, Yi Yan watched for a while, and finally closed the lid lightly.
