Chapter 242: Unification of Military Power (6)

Fengjing.

Zhao Zhi is reviewing the folds.

In the past two years, with the victory of the Battle of Jiangnan and the victory of the Battle of Longyou, the prestige of the central court or Zhao Zhi himself has been greatly improved, and the major feudal towns in the world are frightened and have become much more docile towards the court.

Chuzhou Jiedu made Wang Huailie enter Beijing twice, and took the initiative to ask to stay in Beijing to serve, with a very sincere attitude, Zhao Zhi out of consideration for the overall situation, relieved his kind words, and let Wang Huailie serve with peace of mind, but also dismissed his two part-time jobs of degree support and transfer, so that he could not interfere in local administration, and only needed to lead the army with peace of mind.

Not only Wang Huailie, but also Wei Wennan, the envoy of the Qianzhou Jiedu, and Lu Xianyao, the envoy of the Chenzhou Jiedu, all came from thousands of miles to Beijing to report on their work, report on local military affairs, and hoped that the imperial court would send competent officials to govern the local area and take the initiative to return the local administrative power.

Yang Daoan, the envoy of Shuzhou Jiedu, although he did not come to Beijing, also sent his only son Yang Luwang to represent himself and offer a large amount of property.

Even the five towns of Hebei Province, which have not had any contact with the imperial court for more than ten years, have sent envoys to Fengjing, to meet Zhao Zhi, to offer a lot of property, and the attitude is very humble, among them, Zhang Jinghui, the envoy of Zhaozhou Festival, is to leave his eldest son Zhang Yuan in the capital, and write to Zhao Zhi, hoping to let his son replace himself and serve the imperial court, Zhao Zhi immediately gave Zhang Yuan an official position, and stayed in Beijing.

The military victory, the further stability of the domestic political situation, and the revival of the once decaying state affairs in his own hands, Zhao Zhi is a little complacent, and in recent times, his mood has been very good, and he is serious, and there are many smiles on his face.

But Zhao Zhi is not satisfied with this, he has a greater desire and ambition, that is, to complete the goal that Wuzong has not completed, for this reason, after the end of the battle of Longyou, Zhao Zhi immediately transferred Li Zhong to the central government, served as the secretary of the military department, large-scale adjustment of the political hall, the political power and military power, all concentrated in his own hands, only in this way, Zhao Zhi can concentrate his strength, to do some, since Wuzong, several generations of emperors want to do, but dare not do.

A eunuch pushed open the door of the hall and walked in in a low voice, Zhao Zhi glanced up, didn't say anything, lowered his head, and continued to review the folds.

Mu Gong walked down from the hall, took the two books in the hands of the eunuch, opened them and looked at them, and then returned to Zhao Zhi's side, the eunuch turned around and went out, closed the door of the palace gently, and the entire hall was once again only Mu Gong and Zhao Zhi.

"Your Majesty, it's a dog's play."

Mu Gong put the fold on the table and said softly.

Zhao Zhi hummed, and after reading the book in his hand, he picked up Li Xun's book and opened it to take a closer look.

Li Xun has two books, one is the detailed process of suppressing bandits in Suzhou, and the other is to recommend meritorious people, recommending Yu Yanhui to serve as the defense envoy of Shazhou, and Wang Jiming and Shan Qiu as the deputy defense envoy of Shazhou.

Zhao Zhi folded the music and chuckled: "Dog, this kid, has also learned to benefit from me." ”

Mu Gong bowed slightly and said in a low voice: "Merit and demerit, reward and punishment, all by Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Zhi nodded, and said lightly: "I originally planned to transfer Zhou Qing to serve as the county commander of Shenchi County in Wuzhou Prefecture after a period of time to restrain Wu Heng, but now it seems that there is no need to do this." ”

Mu Gong chuckled: "Although Gou'er has not been in Wuzhou for a long time, he has made quite a lot of achievements. ”

"It's nothing."

After that, Zhao Zhi wrote a quasi-word with a red brush on Li Xun's recommended book.

...............................

After the victory of the bandits in Suzhou, Li Xun immediately sent a letter to the imperial court, reported the detailed battle situation, and asked for rewards for the meritorious people.

More than 20 days passed quickly, during which Wang Renzizi asked Li Xun to come to the Dadu Governor's Mansion to tell the details of the war, because Wang Renzizi also had to write a detailed report and send it to the imperial court, and the war on Li Xun's side ended too quickly, and Wang Renzizi did not have any information in his hands.

Although Wang Renzi, as the governor of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion of Longyou Province, is the highest governor of the entire Longyou Province, Zhao Zhi did not give him a festival, so his supreme governor is only nominal, in fact, although Li Xun and Wang Renzizi have a superior-subordinate relationship, but Wang Renzizi does not have the right to transfer troops, and he cannot command Li Xun.

Of course, Wang Renzi, as a former prime minister, has a reputation there, and Li Xun will not refuse such a small request.

When he arrived at the Dadu Governor's Mansion, Wang Renzi praised Li Xun and said that he would personally write to the court and ask for merit for him.

With the bandits in the four states of Longyou South Province, a large-scale gathering in Suzhou, trying to capture the city, but was quickly reinforced, Li Xun to wipe out, the number of bandits in the entire Longyou South Province greatly weakened, Wang Renzizi has mobilized 5,000 soldiers and horses, ready to carry out a big sweep of the bandits in the territory, hoping that Li Xun can stay for the time being, give military support.

It was not easy to get the military power in hand, and some things had not been dealt with yet, Li Xun didn't want to return to Wuzhou so soon, so he readily agreed to Wang Renzi's request.

On this day, Li Xun was sitting in his room to handle official business.

The war is over, but the follow-up work is still heavy.

Yuanhe's sweeping work in Yewang Mountain was basically over, including the bandits and their relatives and families, a total of more than 30,000 people, all of whom were taken to Fuyang County, and the bandits here were taken care of.

Li Xun has a headache now, so many people, the food consumed every day is too huge, if it weren't for Wang Renzi's urgent transfer of a batch of food, Li Xun wouldn't know what to do.

Shan Qiu walked in, Li Xun looked up, and asked loudly, "How are things going?" ”

Shan Qiu found a chair and sat down, took a sip of tea, and then said: "It's all gone, there is no chaos, and those people's emotions have calmed down." ”

Li Xun said: "Send more people, show me tightly, whoever dares to provoke trouble will be killed." ”

Shan Qiu nodded: "Yuan He has already sent five hundred additional people, and they are very closely monitored, and they can't make a fuss." ”

Five days ago, Yuan He returned from Yewang Mountain, accompanied by tens of thousands of prisoners, the bandits on the side of Fuyang County, seeing their relatives arrested, suddenly became emotional, causing a small-scale commotion, but it was quickly suppressed.

Li Xun thought about it again and again, discussed it with Shan Qiu and others, and finally decided to release more than 20,000 of them, old and young women, children, and ordinary people, and let them return to their hometowns.

After this move was made, it had a very good effect, and the emotions of the captured bandits calmed down a lot and became much more honest.

Shan Qiu glanced at Li Xun and asked, "Li Xun, there are tens of thousands of captured bandits, what are you going to do with them?" ”

Li Xun leaned back, leaned back in the chair, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, this question is indeed a headache, these people are habitual bandits, the vast majority of them are people from Dashi and the Western Regions, and they do not have any sense of belonging to the Jin Dynasty.
