Chapter 389: Sha Qianying and Gyeongnam Layout
Following
King Duan put on a silver armor and hung a sword at his waist, left the garden with twenty personal guards, and rode to the camp outside the city.
This time, Emperor Liyang ordered the training of the navy, logically speaking, it should be practiced on a warship between the lake and the sea, but because of the last attack of Southern Chu, several naval camps in Qingnan were destroyed, and the warships and warships on this side of Pinghu suffered countless losses, almost one in ten.
Due to the war of the Jin and Zhou dynasties, there was some financial emptiness on the part of the household department, and there was not enough spare money to supervise the construction of new warships for a while, resulting in most of the new naval forces trained by Sha Qianying having no warships to use for training water operations.
Therefore, after some discussion, Sha Qianying and the generals of Gyeongnam went to Emperor Liyang to ask the navy to train on land first, and then launch the water to practice water warfare after the construction of the new warship.
Therefore, although Duanwang came to supervise the training of the Qingnan Naval Army, but for so many days, he has never seen water and boats, and the naval barracks where he is located are no different from ordinary military camps.
Today's day is good, the naval army barracks started a day's drills early, and when Duanwang brought people to arrive, the camp was in full swing to drill the formation, and cooperate with the small group of water combat.
Although King Duan didn't know much about military affairs, he still stayed in the army for a while, and he saw that the soldiers were trained seriously and did not cheat and cheat, so he nodded and turned around and went to the handsome tent.
Yesterday, Sha Qianying, the chief general of the navy and the right general, ordered that today's generals have the responsibility of supervising the army, so they naturally have to participate.
…………
However, when King Duan arrived at the tent, he found that the council had already ended.
Looking at the smiling scribe in front of him, King Duan used a lot of concentration to prevent the smile on his face from collapsing on the spot.
The dog thief dared to ignore the king like this!!
Waving his hand to let the scribe who reported the news leave, King Duan came to his tent with his personal guards, there were no outsiders around, the anger in King Duan's heart could no longer be suppressed, and his face sank directly, and it was pitch black.
Sha Qianying was very resistant to the fact that he came to supervise the training of the navy, and the king of Duanwang knew in his heart that after all, no one would like to be on his own territory, and suddenly a person who was airborne to supervise and control himself suddenly came in.
But understanding is understanding, this does not mean that Duanwang can send his face up to Sha Qianying to step on.
It's been less than a month since King Duan came to Gyeongnam?
Sha Qianying pouted his face in public like this, how would King Duan serve the public in the future.
Don't think it's just a trivial matter, King Duan dares to believe that today Sha Qianying ignored himself, the prince and the army, in front of the generals, and the soldiers below could not guarantee that they would not watch the dishes.
Over time, the less prestige King Duan has in the water camp, not only will he not be able to supervise the errand of the water army, but he will probably leave an impression of mediocrity and incompetence on Emperor Liyang, who watched him in the capital.
"Sha Qianying is giving this king a belated dismount, he wants to use this matter to tell the following, although this king is the prince, but the head of the Gyeongnam Navy is still his surname Sha."
King Duan sneered, this trick is not new, but Sha Qianying is extremely domineering, in other words, others want to confront the prince of Duanwang, so that the means will not be put on the bright side, how to fight in private, on the surface, everyone is harmonious.
But Sha Qianying is different, his actions today almost showed his opposition and dissatisfaction with Duanwang, and clearly told everyone that he didn't want to see Duanwang, and asked the people below to hurry up and stand in line.
I have to say that King Duan and King Jing have been fighting in the court for so long, and they haven't met anyone who plays like this.
Before he came, King Duan had heard of this Sha Shuai, who had an arrogant temperament, was arbitrary, never paid attention to rules and regulations, and was a very difficult person to get along with.
At first, Duanwang thought that someone was maliciously slandering, but now it seems that Sha Qianying has such comments, which is worthy of his name.
…………
King Duan sat in his tent and thought carefully for half an hour.
He believes that no matter whether this Sha Qianying is because of his personality or what other purpose he has behind it, he will lose face in public, and this loss king can't swallow his anger.
You'll have to fight back!
But this is not an easy task, don't look at King Duan is the prince of the prince, but Sha Qianying has also been operating in Gyeongnam for ten years, and his strength and influence are very strong, not something that he can shake in a short time with one mouth, he needs some manpower to help him.
Thinking of this, Duanwang's face moved slightly, before leaving Beijing, he had the intention to attract some generals for his own use after arriving in Gyeongnam, he had not been here for a long time, and he had not had time to act, but he was silently screening talents worthy of encompassing.
Now that the real situation has changed, Sha Qianying is aggressive towards him, in order not to fall into passivity, Duanwang can only gather talents in advance to face Sha's difficulties.
But that's okay, with the pressure of Sha Qianying on it, the loyalty of the people who have taken refuge can be guaranteed to a certain extent, and by the way, you can also use this to observe and exercise the ability of these newcomers, and count them in one fell swoop.
The only thing that is a little troublesome is that Sha Qianying is deeply rooted in Qingnan after all, and Duanwang is against him, and the number of talents who dare to defect to Duanwang in Qingnan will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, if King Duan wants to not fall behind with Sha Qianying, these people alone may not be enough, and he has to ask for some foreign aid from others.
Duanwang's initial idea was to transfer people from the capital or let people from Duanwang's party in Gyeongju come to support, but then after thinking about it, these people are not easy to move.
The people of the capital, he has to stay on guard against King Jing, and the people of Gyeongju, to be honest, King Duan's strength here is not very strong, and in the case of confrontation with the King Jingwang Party in Gyeongju, he smashed all his brains on the side of Pinghu in Gyeongnam, which is a bit more than worth the loss.
In case something goes wrong, the Duanwang Party has been operating in Gyeongju for many years, but it will be wasted.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Duanwang decided that the people of the Duanwang Party could not move lightly, even if they came to support a part, they must not come too much, and he had to ensure that other aspects suppressed the Jingwang Party.
The Duanwang party couldn't be easily called, so Duanwang sent the idea to Yan Kui.
As soon as Yan Kui came to work, he made every inch of merit, and Duanwang asked him to send someone to Qingnan to help him, which not only meant that he was close to him, but also deepened the connection between the two sides, and at the same time, Yan Kui also showed his hand in Duanwang and was credited with a merit.
Second, Yan Kui's subordinates are all talents in the army, and it is what King Duan is in urgent need of in Qingnan right now, after Yan Kui sent him, he just solved King Duan's urgency, and he had the confidence to continue to argue with Sha Qianying.
So King Duan wrote a letter to Yan Kui, and sent his guards to carry his own tokens and go to Xiaoguan to find Yan Kui.
……………
At the end of the first month of the seventeenth year of Liyang
When Yan Kui received this letter, he was overjoyed, just as King Duan thought, he did intend to have more contact with King Duan, enhance his feelings, and send someone to King Duan's side to make the whole thing happen.
Moreover, Yan Kui is going to send Duanwang all the system soldiers, so that he can guarantee that even if his subordinates follow Duanwang, their hearts are still towards themselves.
In addition, Yan Kui wanted to use this to mix some people with the army on the other side of Gyeongnam.
The four places with the largest number of troops in the Northern Jin Dynasty - the Jin-Zhou border, Gyeonggi, Gyeongnam, and the coastal garrison.
Needless to say, this is Yan Kui's home field on the border of Jin and Zhou, with the laying of the dark web in the capital, a little people have slowly infiltrated into the Beijing army, and Qingnan and the coastal garrison, Yan Kui has not stretched out for the time being because his hand is not long enough.
Now that Duanwang is borrowing people, he just took this opportunity to plan to arrange some backhands in Gyeongnam.
So, under Yan Kui's arrangement, at the beginning of February, 500 elites under his command rushed to Qingnan in batches to defect to Duanwang, doing things on the surface, and secretly having the secret task of mixing sand for Yan Kui in Qingnan.
