If preaching works, why use force

When Zheng Fucheng brought the half-life Master Lu back to the county office, there were still two lives and more than a dozen wounded, and the situation on the mountain was self-evident. Reporting level by level is the most basic rule of the game in officialdom, even if the sky falls, the person at the top can only be a higher-level state official.

Zhao Weixian just came to Quanzhou not long ago, and he did not want to be famous or profitable, but to successfully complete this task. The identity of the royal family is already his golden signboard, he now does not seek merit but seeks no fault, the saint is sage, and the vigilance of the descendants of Taizu for three generations has been much inferior to that of the Taizong Dynasty, but their Taizu is still walking on thin ice, not daring to deviate and not messing around, honestly do their own things, and do not let Qingliu target themselves, otherwise under the words of others, they will not have good fruit to eat.

When he received the 400-mile urgent report from Xinghua, he was discussing with Cao Qiansong how to strengthen the management of these humanized outsiders in Qingyuan Port. Since the opening of the port, the number of these outsiders coming to the Celestial Empire has increased, many people have simply come to do business, and they have left when they have earned money, but there are also some people who refuse to leave when they come, and now they are faintly forming a force in Qingyuan. Their religion and way of life are completely different from those of the Great Song Dynasty, and they often form confrontations and allow this group of people to form a climate, which is not what the princes of his side want to see in any case.

The Xunbing sent the urgent report to him, and he thought that Xinghua had come to ask for help and money and food for disaster relief, but he didn't think about it, and wanted to send the Xunbing two to continue the discussion, but the Xunbing didn't know the system, and insisted that Zhao Weixian, the prince Zhizhou, immediately check the contents of it, saying that Song Zhixian insisted.

As soon as Song Zhixian's insistence on the Xunbing said this, the Xunbing's eyes didn't even dare to look at Zhao Weixian and Cao Qiansong, he was a little Xunbing, not a fool. What are the identities of these two masters? He is a little county magistrate, and in their eyes, he is not even a hair! I can't help but say it, now I just ask these two masters Haihan, don't see it with myself, adults don't care about villains, otherwise I won't have good fruit to eat if I don't complete the task and go back.

Cao Qiansong is an authentic northerner, and from a famous family, the ancestors and the founding general Cao Bin can climb up to the family, and the clan relationship can also be a little close, the Cao family has been honored for generations, and they all come out of the ranks, and the most important thing is to respect and humility! At this time, the south has gone through five generations of land development in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and has begun to get rid of the bad impression of the barbarian land, but the vulgar and vulgar image of the southerners is still deeply rooted in the hearts of these northerners. This is a reflection of the southerners' lack of etiquette in their minds. He is talking to Zhao Wangye, discussing the secrets of the military aircraft, what kind of bullshit is this dog, the mother-raised magistrate? How dare you offend the prince like this?

Cao Qiansonghuo stood up in a flash, grabbed the signal soldier, and without a word of scolding bursting out of his mouth, he grabbed the guilty signal soldier by the collar and lifted it up in the air! This soldier is not under his own account, if he supervises the army, he will have to beat this undisciplined soldier with twenty canes first!

This signal soldier was hard, his collar was holding his throat and it was a little difficult to breathe, his face gradually turned red and he didn't hum, his eyes were still staring straight in front of him, he didn't make any eye contact with the two nobles, and let Cao Qiansong lift himself in the air.

Zhao Weixian knows very well the temper of his own palace to join the army, he is ruthless and does not talk much, he was born in a military family, his style of action is killing and arbitrary, he just smiled, and then opened the emergency report with fire paint. It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, as soon as he sees it, he himself stands up suddenly!

Zhao Weixian's stop scared Cao Qiansong a lot, Zhao Weixian's own majesty has never been so out of shape, at least he has been by Zhao Weixian's side for nearly twenty years, and he has never seen him like this!

"Lord Wang?"

Zhao Weixian said with a pale face: "Qiansong, let him go and let him go back to Xinghua!" ”

Cao Qiansong didn't even ask why, his hand slowly put this tough soldier on the ground, his face had turned from red to blue, and he still maintained his head high and his face full of stubbornness.

"You can go back." Zhao Weixian pressed the anger in his chest and squeezed a few words out of his mouth.

The interrogator turned and left, panting as he loosened his collar.

Zhao Weixian handed the emergency report to Cao Qiansong, Cao Qiansong was so excited that he almost roared, no wonder the prince was so excited, this kind of place where even men are weak and unbearable has people rebelled! He is different from Zhao Weixian, he is too eager for war, military merit is the only way for him to rise, and the peaceful era will only grind the blood of these soldiers little by little. The Cao family has an illusion that the founding general Cao Bin is a famous general, and his son Cao Wei is also a famous general, and the other children of the Cao family think that they were born at the wrong time, otherwise they will definitely be able to earn great credit like their predecessors when they go to the battlefield.

However, he is not born enough, it is the Cao family that is biased, and he has been on Zhao Weixian's line for half his life, and if he wants to get ahead, he has to count on Zhao Wangye. However, he also knew that Zhao Weixian definitely didn't want such a thing as rebellion, so he would have such an expression, he didn't dare to make a mistake, he just scolded Xiao Xunbing, and he couldn't be so out of shape himself.

"Please show it to the prince!" Cao Qiansong gave a military salute and waited for Zhao Weixian's military order with his fists clenched.

Zhao Weixian's first instinct was that this matter was not simple! Damn the Min people will also rebel? This is as incredible as the champion of the Northern Liao Examination, I have never heard of someone here who will rebel for thousands of years, why did someone rebel as soon as he came? When this matter reached Tokyo, it was impossible for those officials to believe their nonsense when they were killed. But forgive Song Guangdou's old dog doesn't have the courage to set himself up, and it's impossible to borrow his guts.

The feudal officials and the clan of the party, no matter who the noble man in Bianjing is on the dragon chair, what he is most worried about is that the people by the couch have people to raise soldiers and respect themselves. What is the method of increasing troops? It is nothing more than to report border troubles or local rebellions, and take the opportunity of quelling the rebellion and suppressing the chaos to put forward the purpose of increasing troops and leading troops, otherwise the troops will be transferred from the north, and when the troops are reinforced, these cities in the southeast will also fall almost completely. Zhao Weixian didn't want to use this trick very much, they had kept a low profile as much as possible, they just didn't want the officials to be suspicious of themselves.

If you don't increase your troops, it will be difficult to quell the chaos, and an official will think that he has gone to the place to prey on the people, which will lead to the gentle Fujian people who are as tame as sheep will also take the opportunity to make trouble, and no matter what the result of this matter is, it will be quite unfavorable to him.

Cao Qiansong's waist had been bent for a while, but the prince in front of him still hadn't listened to his intentions. Zhao Weixian's mind was still thinking about what to do about this matter, this Song Guangdou was also a capable official before, and he was quite stable, how could he poke out such a basket for him? There is no way, the most important thing at the moment is to extinguish this spark as soon as possible, if it spreads and affects the surrounding states and counties, they are not vegetarians, don't look at themselves as princes, they also know that Taizu is weak, for their own future, then the participation will definitely fly to Tokyo, one ginseng and one accurate!

After a long time, Zhao Weixian said to the door: "Someone!" ”

A small servant outside the house crept in and promised, "Lord Wang! ”

Zhao Weixian said to this small soldier: "Immediately select and send a fast horse for 800 miles to expedite the general's information and Tokyo, this king will write it by hand and submit it directly to the official family, there must be no mistakes." Send another letter to the Fuzhou Transit Division, the transfer envoy, and the defense history. ”

Zhao Weixian thought to himself: Although my status is higher than him, I am subordinate to him according to the system, and I can't do it if I don't do this.

After saying that, Cao Qiansong had already begun to study ink, and Zhao Weixian immediately sent his hand to write the book.

"Qiansong, you will gather the generals in the hall and wait for my order!"

Cao Qiansong listened to the bow and shouted: "Humble and orderly!" ”

A fast horse flew out of the Qingyuan Zhizhou Mansion in the starry night, and the starry night used the best fast horse, and rushed to Bianjing with the fastest standard of 800 miles. In the side hall of Weiyuan Building, all the soldiers and horses of Quanzhou Mansion gathered together, and the princes and soldiers from the north were all in a hurry, and the original team of Qingyuan was like a dead father, all of them were sad and miserable. The two factions are obviously divided into two groups, the royal palace in the north is close to each other, and the land in the south is a snake of its own, and occasionally there are people stringing the mountain gates, but there are not many, and the difference between the places and the difference in origin is an insurmountable gap between the two groups of people.

The reason for the excitement of the northern faction is probably the same as Cao Qiansong, they are eager to make contributions, the regular army has always been like chopping melons and vegetables to fight the homeless, and they can earn functions and grab a handful by the way, how can the homeless people have the ability to resist?

What about these people from the Southern Sect, they come from humble backgrounds, and their current achievements have been accumulated for decades, and it is difficult to go further, but they have a good life, and they are fucking sick when they go to quell the chaos! Where is this?

This is the Qingyuan of the rich armor in the southeast, and there are golden gentle townships everywhere, I thought I was here to live a good life, how the fuck there are people who are rebellious! The errands are all grown up in honeypots, and the rebels are all people who are cornered, how to fight?

Zhao Weixian has already changed into a military uniform, the Quanzhou Prefecture area is a bit special, and the military and political affairs are controlled by Zhao Weixian alone, so there is nothing wrong with him, and everyone will obey his orders.

"The military situation in Honshu is tight, so the starry night summons you!" Zhao Weixian sat down on the main seat, and a momentum that had lived on the people for a long time rolled in.

"Listen to orders!" Everyone seemed to have rehearsed, and the slogans they shouted were all brushed together.

"Tonight's Xinghua emergency report, there is a wave of anti-people in Xinghua Mountain Township, robbing and killing officials and robbing grain, the land of Fujian has never heard of such a murderous thing since ancient times, but I didn't expect it to be encountered by this official!" Zhao Weixian snorted heavily, and continued: "Can the generals have a good way to rehabilitate?" ”

The generals of the southern faction are all out of blood and fire, and now they are very sorry for their lives, and now they are even more afraid of death when they are old, so they hope that they will not stay at home to care for the elderly, hug their grandson, touch their concubines, and come up with a fart idea.

These people from the northern faction want to speak, but they are afraid of the status of the occasion, after all, not everyone is qualified to speak casually on this occasion.

Zuo Qiu Hong, who is also a descendant of the Shaozhuang faction, saw that everyone was dumbfounded, and walked to the front of him with the cloak on his golden helmet, and said in a loud voice: "Lord Yu! A few mountain and wild villagers are not enough to trouble, and there are 2,000 soldiers and armor deacons in Quanzhou Prefecture, and the soldiers will definitely let them collapse! ”

This prince called the people of the Southern Sect that they were not happy, this young man clearly showed his relationship with Zhao Weixian, and he was scolding angrily in his heart, so capable, then you can go by yourself, we will help you guard the door.

Cao Qiansong didn't expect Zuo Qiuhong's own subordinates to be so anxious, he also wanted to make meritorious contributions, but he didn't dare to be so big in a serious tone, and immediately said: "The prince can't!" "

Zhao Weixian didn't expect that it was Cao Qiansong, who was closest to him, who was opposed, and he didn't know anything about the art of war, so he immediately asked, "Why not?" ”

Cao Qiansong said carefully: "At present, the intention of the court to deal with the forces is unclear, and everything needs to be based on the instructions of the court. Xinghua has a large population, and the number of anti-people is not clear at present, although 2,000 soldiers can win against 200 anti-people, but if it is anti-people, there are also 2,000. ”

Everyone listened to Cao Qiansong's eloquent words, and it was worthy of being behind the gate, and what he said was that he was more measured than some wild people from the road, and he knew the severity.

"Xinghua Mountain is high and hilly, the terrain is treacherous and the mountain shape is complex, the anti-people are stuck in the mountains, not to mention 2,000 people, it is 200,000 horses, and it is unknown whether they can be found!"

Many southern generals have long felt these contents in their hearts, but they are not as clear as Cao Qiansong thought, and it is even more difficult to say so easily.

"The mountain people walk around in the mountains all the year round, and they are better at forest warfare than our officers and soldiers.

Zhao Weixian doesn't understand military affairs, but he is not a fool, Cao Qiansong is the truth, and he can't help but listen to it frequently.

"Keep talking!"

"Only now can we mobilize a small force to stabilize the situation in Xinghua first, wait for the will of the court and the officials, and then decide that the next step is not too late, in case the court and the heavenly soldiers come, then we don't need to suppress the bandits."

Cao Qiansong wants to make meritorious contributions, but he is not stupid, how can two thousand against two thousand fight with others on other people's territory?

Cao Qiansong paused for a moment and then said: "The current priority is to listen to the truth and reality, knowing that the other side can fight without slacking off, we will deploy it in advance, and as soon as the court reinforcements arrive, we can also wave the army without delaying the military situation!" ”
