After Yang Xianzong entered the camp, he was also shocked when he saw the dozens of heads hanging in front of the gate, and he was secretly relieved when the Chinese soldiers who came to greet him explained a little.

However, when he heard that His Royal Highness King Yongwang had summoned strange soldiers to join the Zhizhong Army, Yang Xianzong still secretly felt that something was wrong, especially when he went outside the big tent of the Chinese army, he saw that there were already some strange soldiers on duty outside the tent.

So after entering the account, before he had time to tell what he had seen in Xijing, he spoke first: "Your Highness summoned the foreign army to the inner arch, or the effect of appeasing Gu Jun's heart, but it also made His Highness's safety unpredictable." Now that it is not the time of the national dynasty to start a business with one heart and one mind, the camp may not be able to deeply understand the kindness and righteousness of His Highness, and His Royal Highness's safety is the most important, or it should not be taken lightly! ”

What Yang Xianzong said is not unreasonable, Li Tong is not the master of entrepreneurship like his grandfather after all, and he lacks the kind of common struggle with the soldiers of the army. Instead of playing the emotional card to buy people's hearts, it is better to improve the system.

However, he has been a bit ruthless in establishing military prestige this time, and if he does not make amends, he will inevitably go too far and shake the morale of the army.

Li Tong did not respond positively to Yang Xianzong's advice, but smiled and talked about the words and deeds of the resolute and clumsy whistleblower he had just received.

His own starting point is too high, and it is difficult to cultivate the kind of common growth and common struggle with the middle and lower-class soldiers, but the existence of the Old Clothing Society is indeed another entry point, at least it can psychologically shorten the distance with these soldiers in the pass, and it will not mess up the dignity and humility.

When he heard that the influence of the Ancient Clothing Society was deeply penetrated into the current army, Yang Xianzong couldn't help but smile, and said with a little pride: "In the past few years, the Ancient Clothing Society has indeed developed rapidly in the Guannei. Even if there is no imperial order, His Royal Highness will be benevolent and benevolent to the soldiers, raise his arms and shout, and the Guanzhong people will respond like a cloud! ”

As he spoke, he suggested again: "In addition to that clumsy, there must be no shortage of old clothes members in the newly gathered army in the Guannai. Why don't you contact those disciples from your humble position, and introduce them into the Chinese army, which can not only win the hearts of the army, but also ensure that the safety of His Highness is not endangered? ”

"Let's not talk about this for now, let's talk about the situation in Xijing."

This thought also flashed through Li Tong's mind, but after thinking about it, he still didn't plan to reveal that he was the head of the Old Clothes Society.

Therefore, the clothing society does not belong to the power of the system after all, and once his identity is revealed, it is difficult to restrain the behavior of the society in the form of a law.

Now that there are hundreds of thousands of people in the Old Clothes Society, he will not take it for granted that these people are all righteous and selfless. If those people rely on the power of King Yong to run rampant in the township, and even resist the control of the local government, it will be really difficult to deal with.

Directly cut off the heads of dozens of generals and colonels like today, because they have military orders as a basis. However, the old clothes society itself is not comprehensive enough to control the behavior of the people, and it still has to rely on the constraints from the moral level.

After Yang Xianzong heard this, he didn't continue the topic, so he told Li Yang about the information he got from Li Yang and what he had seen and heard, and at the same time handed over the information compiled by Su Yue.

"This is actually the case in Xijing......"

Li Tong listened to this, his brows also furrowed faintly, he originally thought that the turmoil in Xijing, even if the clothing society was not the leader, should also have a great power of guidance, but now it seems that the situation in Xijing is far more chaotic than he imagined.

Yang Xianzong's paraphrase may not be clear enough, Su Yue's description in the book is more comprehensive and specific, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Xijing is scattered, and there are no people and forces who can preside over the situation.

Such a situation, although unexpected, is also reasonable.

Especially after learning about the specific turmoil in Xijing, Li Tong couldn't help but sigh that Guan Longxun and the nobles were really tiger fathers and dogs, and they lost the face of their ancestors. In this turmoil, there were obviously too many opportunities to control the situation, but they were all missed.

Of course, it is a bit of a bit to say that Guan Longxun is all talented as guinea dogs. After all, it has been inherited for so long, and the foundation and foundation are still there. But obviously, none of the first-rate talents who can take responsibility and control the situation have come forward, and the vast majority of them should have rushed to the gods.

After all, at present, Shendu is the real center of the current situation, and only by grasping the right to speak in the current situation of Shendu can it play a greater role. Those who stay in the countryside are either lacking in talent or prestige, and they cannot control the situation well.

The turmoil in Xijing City is essentially an emergency, and it has been less than a month since the turmoil broke out. Maybe after a while, a certain order will be formed in the turmoil, and some characters will emerge, but the fire is obviously not enough at the moment.

Su Yo also said in the document that the noble families who were mainly gathered in the east of the city had gradually shown some signs of joint defense. If there is still no external force to intervene in the future, it is very likely that these noble families will organize their families to attack the Fang District, gradually expel those rebels from the city, or suppress them on the spot.

But the current dilemma is that these nobles do not have the prestige to command the families, so the power has not been integrated for a long time. This situation is also very understandable, everyone belongs to the same class, and the ancestors are all wide, why should I listen to you?

They are not satisfied with each other, and their own interests have not been hurt too much, and there is not enough motivation for them to be completely together. After all, Wu Zetian's differentiation and suppression over the years have not had a false effect, and those who are qualified to unify the various families have gradually declined.

This point was deeply felt as early as when Li Tong was still in Xijing last year, if Guan Longxun and nobles could be twisted into a rope casually and did not distinguish between each other, then he would not be so easy to succeed when he was engaged in the Dou family.

From this point of view, Xijing's current chaos is also more beneficial to Li Tong. In particular, Li Yang and others were able to adapt to the situation and take the initiative to restrain the people of the Ancient Clothes Society not to participate in the turmoil, so that the rebels were also lacking in integration, although they disrupted the order, but they did not exert too much pressure on the Guan Longxun nobles, which was also beneficial to the later laundering and co-optation of the Ancient Clothes Society.

Thinking like this, Li Tong quickly sketched out a general plan in his heart to calm the chaos, he did not plan to directly advance the army to Xijing City, if the momentum was too majestic, it would make those nobles in Xijing City frightened and gather together to keep warm, and it was not conducive to the subsequent differentiation and co-optation, and each one was broken.

As for the people who are in turmoil, it is actually very simple to solve, they are nothing more than forced by their livelihoods, and there may be some careerists hidden in them, but at least they are not a force now, as long as they can provide some survival guarantees, they can disintegrate most of the rioters in a short time.

After thinking about it, Li Tong ordered Li Zhan to be summoned and instructed him: "Early tomorrow morning, you will first lead a thousand cavalry soldiers to Xijing, visit the family of the Lord of Beijing, and order them to collect their donations and goods at Baqiao for the army to use." ”

"So which ones should you visit?"

Hearing this vague military order, Li Zhan couldn't help but be a little confused, so he asked again.

This question is also very simple, Su Yue's letter recorded the defense situation of each family in Xijing, and Li Tong casually drew out more than a dozen families in it.

At the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart, he felt that he would have to fight more or less in this chaos, so he did not bring Wu Youyi with the Chinese army, but let him come west with Tang Xianxue. If Wu Youyi is in the army now, he can blackmail everyone more accurately.

But doing this right now is just a small test, anyway, the big drama is still to come, and Wu Youyi will definitely show his skills later.

After Li Zhan took the list, he nodded and accepted the order, but he did not withdraw immediately, but waited in the tent for a while, but saw that King Yong had no follow-up moves, so he couldn't help but remind: "The humble post has not been in Xijing before, and there are few knowledgeable people in the city, if there is no written order, I am afraid that I will not be able to win the trust of others." ”

When Li Tong heard this, he frowned and said unhappily: "In the realm of tens of thousands of furnishings in my army, is it empty?" You are my humerus wrestler, leading the order, willing to visit is already condescending, who dares to underestimate it? If someone refuses to obey the order, there is no need to dwell on it, and he will be punished after his own plan! ”

When Li Zhan heard this, he faintly understood King Yong's intentions, and hurriedly said: "I understand that I must go and return quickly, and I will not miss the military period." ”

Those Guan Longxun nobles were greedy for goods and goods, which caused this chaos, although it could be regarded as indirectly helping Li Tong, but he did not intend to help these people save money. Send Li Zhan to go first, but I don't want to extort how many materials can come out, the main thing is to make a mark first, and then slowly clean up.

It was for this purpose that he chose Li Zhan to go. Li Zhan's father, Li Yifu, as early as the Gaozong period, was the tool of the two saints to attack Guanlong, and it is conceivable that the Guanlong family must have a bad impression of him.

Li Zhan, as the son of Li Yifu, went to the door with red lips and white teeth, opened his mouth to ask for money and food, and did not even have a formal warrant, you can imagine how those Guan Long nobles would react, it would be strange to satisfy him!

There is another function similar to Li Zhan, that is, Xu Jingzong's son Xu Jing, Li Tong also brought Xijing this time, and prepared to arrange for him to serve as the county magistrate of Wannian. Let them take over the knife and pen in the hands of their fathers, start anew, and create brilliance again.

Of course, even if those Guanlong people are knowledgeable and willing to donate food to help the army, Li Tong will have arrangements for the future. He didn't intend to uproot Guan Longxun's nobles, but at least he had to suppress them within a certain range.

What's more, this group of people themselves are the local tyrants and big landlords in Guanzhong, and if they don't squeeze their oil and water dry, a lot of follow-up work will not be easy to carry out. After all, three generations have accumulated a lot, and one by one they are full of brains, and they kill one and top ten.

Even if your ancestors have meritorious service to the Tang Dynasty, the reason why Lao Tzu is awesome is because of my grandmother, who doesn't recognize your account. Feeling wronged, go to Zhaoling to talk to my grandfather.
