Chapter 88 pro-expedition to Hedong

Guo Rong commanded the army to defeat the Chu army at the Bianhe River, and Guo Wei was added to Guo Rong's Kaifu Yi and the three divisions, the inspector Tai Lieutenant, and the servant, and led the Great Zhou Dynasty government. Seven days later, Guo Rongshui, who commanded the eastern and southern armies in Songzhou, died of illness and assumed the throne in front of the army. He issued edicts one after another, and transferred back the troops of Zhao Kuangyin and Zhang Yongde from Xuzhou and Huainan.

Two days later, Guo Rong added Zhang Yongde to the rank of envoy of Songzhou, and he led the Lingwu cavalry back to Bianjing. Taishi Feng Dao, Prime Minister Li Gu, Wang Pu and others led hundreds of officials to greet them. Guo Rong looked sad, walked into Beijing, and guarded the spirit of Emperor Daxing in the Min De Palace. In the afternoon of the same day, Li Gu and others received a recital from Li Yun, the envoy of the Luzhou Festival, Xiang Xun, the head of the Hebei camp, and others: Liu Chong and the Khitan jointly invaded.

As a result, Feng Dao, Li Gu and others once again led the hundred officials to ask Guo Rong to listen to the government, and they entered the concert three times in a row. Guo Rong had no choice but to meet the ministers in the Long Live Palace.

After Guo Rong and other ministers met with him, after the relationship between the monarch and the minister was formally established, three decrees were promulgated one after another. First, mourn Guo Wei, cherish the memory of the Great Emperor Guo Wei's revolution, and posthumously consider the "Taizu" emperor. To put it bluntly, he wrote an obituary for Guo Wei, and due to the tight time, Guo Rong couldn't spare time to hold a memorial service; Second, the political situation of the Central Committee was adjusted, and he appointed Taishi Feng Dao as the envoy of the mountain tomb, Tian Min of Taichangqing as the ceremonial envoy, Zhang Zhao, the secretary of the military department, as the envoy of Lubo, Zhang Xu as the envoy of honor in the imperial history, and Wang Min of Kaifeng Shaoyin as the envoy of the bridge and the road. From this personnel adjustment, it can be seen that Guo Rong took the opportunity of setting up the "Daxing Emperor's Funeral Committee" to completely empty the people he thought were inappropriate or incompetent. Although it is said that participating in the funeral committee is the trust of His Majesty the new emperor in himself, the burial of the old emperor is not a simple matter, and it will take several months to say anything before and after. However, state affairs do not wait for anyone, these people are busy digging graves and formulating etiquette, and their official positions must be topped, and when the emperor is buried, these people should also retire.

Since the death of the Tang Dynasty, the position of the Shanling envoy has basically been the last shift of the important ministers before they retire. After completing the errand, the person who served as the envoy of the mountain and the tomb either became a priest or went to the local area to become a jiedu envoy with little power (even if a civil official became a jiedu envoy, it was not easy to control the army).

As the so-called "once a son of heaven and a courtier", this funeral committee is an excuse for Guo Rong to adjust the political situation. If it is a promotion opportunity, then why did Li Gu, Wang Pu, and Wei Renpu, who are very trusted by Guo Wei and Guo Rong, not participate?

In addition to adjusting the central government, in this edict, local officials were also raised by one level, especially Wang Yin, the envoy of Caizhou Jiedu, who not only hung up the title of Pingzhang, but also sealed the title to show his favor. Of course, treating Wang Yin well is also something that has to be done, more than 80,000 people in Wang Yin's department are all elite soldiers in Hebei, this person is not very obedient under Guo Wei's account, in the hands of Guo Rong, there may be any new ideas, Da Zhou is in turmoil at the moment, Guo Rong also has to be false and wrong, and try his best to stabilize Wang Yin.

The third is to announce to the world that the royal driver will personally relieve the siege of Luzhou. Old man Guo Wei left too quickly, although he cleaned up Wang Jun for Guo Rong, but there was still Wang Yin outside. In addition, the veteran Xiang Xun and others are obedient to Guo Wei, but the master is replaced by Guo Rong, whether there will be other ideas, that is not necessarily. Therefore, Guo Rong has no choice, he must personally recruit, and he must use his outstanding military exploits to improve his status, win the hearts of the people, and also deter his officials.

Guo Rong's plan is very clear, if he can defeat Liu Chong and encircle Xiang Xun, then the next step is to use the banner of "Xiao Gui Cao Sui" to completely spread Guo Wei's plan to train the forbidden army, and draw elite soldiers and strong generals from various feudal towns across the country to form a forbidden army. Once the forbidden army was successfully trained, it not only improved the combat effectiveness of the Zhou army, but also weakened the various feudal towns in silence. At that time, Wang Yin will not be afraid. Take 10,000 steps back, as long as he controls Hebei, Guanzhong, and Shandong, even if Wang Yin of Caizhou has an opinion, Guo Rong does not have to be afraid of him.

Seeing that Guo Rong was going to drive the expedition in person, Feng Dao, who had always believed in "ruling by hanging the arch" and "descending with a watch", jumped out and said, "Your Majesty." After Liu Chong's defeat in Pingyang (after Murong Yan's defeat, Liu Chong once sent his son south to fight with the Zhou army in Yangping, defeated), his power weakened, his fighting spirit was lost, and there were no conditions for regaining his strength. His Majesty has just ascended the throne, and the burial of Emperor Daxing is in the near future, and the people's hearts are easily shaken, and they should not act rashly, and only need to appoint a general who is lower than the enemy, which is the most appropriate. ”

Guo Rong looked at the old man standing at the bottom of the steps, and felt quite disdainful of him. Feng Dao, the old man is sleek and sophisticated, and he has no backbone (he has served eight surnames and twelve masters in his life), the most infuriating thing is that this old man is not ashamed but proud, some time ago, he also published a special book "Changle Old Self-Order", which listed the official positions he held one by one since he entered the office, and even included the false positions of the Khitan people, which meant to show off. Feng Dao also has an interesting joke: Feng Dao has a doorman who is talking about Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching", and the first sentence at the beginning is "Tao is Tao, very Tao." There happened to be Feng Dao's word "Dao", and this doorman did not dare to offend the name of the master, so he recited loudly: "I dare not say it, but I dare not say it, I dare not say it." ”

Guo Rong doesn't look down on Feng Dao, but this old man has a high prestige, and his reputation is very good at home and abroad (when Yelu Deguang entered Bianjing, I heard that it was not Feng Dao who surrendered with a table, and he refused to enter alive or dead, and he had to be Feng Dao to hold the surrender table to feel like an emperor of the Central Plains), and he had just ascended the throne, so it was not good for him. Guo Rong was a little unhappy on his face: "Liu Chong has never taken me seriously, how can I let the old man despise me, I must let Liu Chong know how powerful I am, otherwise don't think about living a stable life in the future." ”

Although when Guo Wei was in power, Feng Dao had already stepped aside, Guo Wei still had great respect for Feng Dao, and from time to time he discussed things with Feng Dao. Maybe Feng Dao was moved by Guo Wei, maybe Feng Dao felt that he should show his loyalty, or maybe Feng Dao harbored evil intentions and wanted to change his master when he was old, so he kept admonishing him.

Guo Rong was anxious: "Tang Taizong has set the world in his hands, and he should do it himself, I usually admire Taizong for a long time, he can do it, why can't I?!" ”

Feng Dao smiled: "Taizong is Taizong, and His Majesty is His Majesty." ”

Listening to Feng Dao's meaning, he obviously looked down on himself. Guo Rong's face sank like water, and he was extremely unhappy in his heart: "The strong capture of the rats in Hedong is a big trouble for me." Now I have the strong blade of the Baizhou athlete under my hand, and the destruction of Liu Chong is like the top of Mount Tai. ”

Feng Dao was unrelenting: "Mount Tai is Mount Tai, and Your Majesty is Your Majesty." ”

Feng Dao kicked his nose on his face like this, showing that he had never had a strong point.

Guo Rong is not a stingy person, on the contrary, his measure is very large, but this time, he was really provoked by Feng Dao. If this Feng Dao has always been as strong as Wei Zheng, it will be fine. It's just that Feng Dao is a glass egg, but in front of his eyes, it has become a toilet stone, smelly and hard. Wouldn't that be looking down on yourself?

Guo Rong's eyes showed anger, and he was about to do it, when Prime Minister Wang Pu stood up and said: "If the strong cowards are not eliminated for a day, the border troubles will not stop for a day, and the ministers think that Your Majesty should come to the front line in person to boost the morale of the three armies. ”

Guo Rong let out a long sigh, he is quite deep in the city, and Ah Q's spirit is also very strong, after calming down his mood, he got off the donkey, no longer paid attention to Feng Dao's entanglement, and directly made a decision to conquer Hedong in person.
