Chapter 169: Your Son
Luyang is rich, and there are many more scholars than Chuzhou and Hezhou.
There are children of officials and gentry, and there are also students from poor families.
There is also the relaxation of the qualifications for good mathematics, which includes most of the children of businessmen.
"Can you really be an official?"
"Once a son of heaven and a courtier, the territory occupied by the Chuzhou army must be managed by others."
"My family is also a disciple of Maitreya......"
The Confucian scholars who used to keep saying that "the son is silent and the power is chaotic", at this moment, many people also take the initiative to call themselves Maitreya disciples.
Those who know the times are Junjie.
They are not small people, and they still have hope for the imperial court.
Taking history as a mirror, everyone knows that now is the end of the dynasty.
The times make heroes.
Can't you go on the field to kill the enemy, can't you take advantage of the east wind and sway?
Now that the Chuzhou army is fighting in the world, joining at this time can still have good qualifications.
"The Chuzhou Buddhist Army is already a land of three states, and there must be a shortage of people."
"In order to prevent corruption, Marshal Huo implemented the policy of officials in different places, and the exams in Chuzhou and Hezhou were also ...... in these two days."
This news was ordered by Huo Bao to be released.
People have the heart of conformity, and the heart of competition.
"It's okay to return to the state, it's close to Luzhou, and it's also rich...... Chuzhou, but after two years of drought, what about poverty......"
"Tsk! That's Chuzhou, Marshal Huo's hometown, you don't like to go, someone rushes to go. ”
"Marshal Huo is from Quyang, and now there are several generals under his command, all of whom are from Quyang!"
"What Quyang is not Quyang? Marshal Huo's ancestral home is Binjiang County and he is the in-law of the fifth family...... Marshal Huo has the fifth marshal's military book in his hand, so that within a few months, he can sweep the land of Sanzhou, sitting on 100,000 soldiers and horses......"
"After Zhongliang!"
"After Tadashi, ......"
This is still the news released by Huo Bao.
Readers, some can put down their bodies, and some are twisted and pinched.
At this time, it is necessary to give a step down.
Is it good to be reckless from a Maitreya cult, or is it good to be loyal and good?
For readers, this face problem is sometimes the main problem.
……
The clerk exam is still available, and the registration is voluntary.
The other is to transfer the children of the official gentry to the young marshal's personal guards according to the household, which is to pinch the key points of each family.
This is a clear carriage and horse-drawn family.
But there are examples such as Liu and Qiao in front, who dares to refuse this matter.
As for one lineage or two side branches, does this need to be said?
The Qiao family, the Wang family, and the Zhang family played a clever trick, wanting to delay time and wait and see by using white things, and ended up with no family.
At this time, it is too late to show loyalty, who dares to do foolish things again.
People have the heart to bully the weak and fear the hard.
The official gentry of Luyang have become afraid of the Chuzhou army.
Children between the ages of thirteen and twenty are similar in all large families.
There is only one family, there are no school-age children, I asked the yamen here, and reported a twelve-year-old eldest grandson, and I barely passed the test.
……
In the prefect's yamen.
Luzhou Tongzhi and Luzhou Tongju are here.
Luzhou Tongzhi stared at Shui Jin, and his hair did not fall.
This one's idea again?
Is this still a Confucian general?
As soon as the grain sales order was issued, the small people were stabilized.
The announcement of the clerk's examination three days later attracted all the thoughts of the readers.
This dispatched the personal guards, and twisted the Luyang officials and gentry into a rope.
Luzhou Tongzhi and Luzhou Tongju sentenced two people, as the head of Luzhou officials, the two are also on the transfer list.
"I don't know if the little marshal is Xiwen or Xiwu?"
Luzhou Tongzhi is also a father, and he is not worried about his son's "personal guard" career, so he came to see Shui Jin and inquire.
He was born in the imperial examination, and his eldest son and second son served the old man in his hometown, and only the youngest son was by his side, fourteen or five years old.
But his son is a powerless scholar.
If you want to be a companion or something, he is not afraid; This is a "personal guard", and he is very weak-hearted.
Shui Jin glanced at Huo Bao, who was sitting at the bottom, and said, "Civil, military, and martial arts...... Ping Suli studied literature and history with Senator Lin, studied martial arts with General Deng, and handled logistics with General Ma......"
Everyone called him "General", and the people below him were not good at calling Mr. Lin, so Huo Wu gave Mr. Lin the name of "Senator" and asked him to lead Wenzhi.
Luzhou Tongzhi listened carefully and already understood that the position of this little marshal Huo was unshakable.
General Deng, General Ma, and Senator Lin are all figures in the Chuzhou Army.
Marshal Huo asked his son to learn from these three people, and he also added weight to his son.
Even if Marshal Huo remarried and had a son, and several generals supported him, it would not be able to shake the status of this eldest son.
If he is only the lord of the land, where is he planning like this?
This Marshal Huo is very human.
Luzhou's confidant is like a deer, and he has a bit of ambition.
The Luzhou general judge did not inquire about Marshal Huo Xiao's temperament, but looked at Huo Bao.
Things are gathered by like, and people are grouped.
This young man is also a child of the Chuzhou Army, and he looks honest and well-behaved, if Marshal Huo is also of such a temperament, it is a good thing for these "guards".
But as the young master of the Chuzhou army, he is weaker.
For a while, he couldn't say that he hoped that the young master would be more powerful, or not more powerful.
……
Chaohu Beiguan, west of Yuxi River.
The prefect of Luzhou stood by the river, looking at the opposite side, looking at the people and horses, with a little despair.
"Chaoxian is also going to be lost!"
The prefect of Luzhou couldn't wait any longer, so he immediately turned around and returned to the camp and met a young man head-on.
"Ming Gongzi, we can't delay it any longer, Chuzhou Baishan has already won Luyang, Shen County, and Chao County...... Let the soldiers get on board and go! The prefect of Luzhou said bitterly.
Of the 40,000 government soldiers, there are only more than 10,000 Luzhou veterans, and the remaining 20,000 are young and strong who have not been trained yet, just a number.
But the Ming Gongzi waved his hand: "Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, wait for the news of General Sheng!" Those people in Chuzhou...... Now that I have come, I have to see...... The white shirt in the world is a family, and it is better not to fight each other......"
The prefect of Luzhou hurriedly said: "Ming Gongzi can't ...... Although they are also white-shirts, Chuzhou white-shirts are under the command of Bozhou Liu Sheng......"
This Liu Sheng has an old relationship with the Maitreya Sect Leader, and is the head of the Huainan Dao Association, and has a different position from the Daqing Army led by the right protector Shou Tianwan.
That's the bad thing about not getting through.
Whether it is the prefect of Luzhou or the prince of Ming, they regard the Chuzhou army as a vassal of Marshal Liu of Bozhou.
Ming Gongzi disagreed: "The Tong Sect Master is dead...... Liu Sheng is isolated in Huainan, could it be that those marshals in Henan Province are easy to get along with? Even if you don't submit to my uncle and form an alliance with my uncle, it will be a great opportunity for the Chuzhou army! ”
When the prefect of Luzhou heard this, it was not easy to persuade again, so he only said: "The gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, I don't know the intention of the white shirt in Chuzhou, and the prince of Ming should be cautious!" ”
Ming Gongzi thought for a while and said: "There is no need to be so careful, Liu Sheng stands up with 'benevolence and righteousness', and he doesn't dare to ruin his reputation...... It's just that it's not good to come to the door directly, so I'll write a post and ask someone to send it over to see which general is in charge over there......"
If it was Liu Sheng's henchman over there, he was still worth a visit, and he was a minion, so there was no need to go in person.
In terms of identity, Liu Sheng is only the head of the meeting, but his uncle is the right protector of the Dharma, the third person in the sect.
When it comes to territory, Liu Sheng will operate for a year before he gets the land of Bozhou and Chuzhou, and his uncle has been building a country for several months, and has won more than a dozen state capitals in the south and east.
You can show goodwill, but you don't have to lose your identity.
……
Chao County, county government.
Huo Wu, Master Lin, Tang Guang, Du Laoba, Monk Feng and others are all there.
There were two people sitting opposite, the forty-year-old is the magistrate of Chaoxian County, and the thirty-year-old is the eldest son of the Chaohu Water Division Yu Deputy Commander - the commander of the Chinese Army of the Water Division Yu Dahai.
Chaoxian is on the edge of Chaohu Lake.
The magistrate of Chaoxian County has long been a member of Chaohu Lake's own family.
More than 20,000 Chuzhou troops came from Hanshan County, and they were welcomed into Chaoxian County without attacking the city at all.
"General An took 500 warships and 10,000 horses yesterday out of Chaohu Lake, into Feishui, and headed for Luyang ......"
Yu Dahai said: "It should be in Luyang at this moment!" ”
Huo Wu here, he had already gotten the news first, and said with a smile: "In the early morning of the day before yesterday, General Deng and their Deshen County entered Luyang ...... in the early morning of yesterday."
Hearing this, Yu Dahai hurriedly said: "Congratulations to the fifth master for winning Luyang!" ”
Even with the magistrate of Nachao County, there was joy on his face.
Take Luyang, and cut off the grain and grass of Luzhou soldiers.
The Luzhou military camp on the other side of the Yuxi River couldn't survive for a few days, and it was self-defeating.
Huo Wudao: "In the past three days, my side has requisitioned 500 civilian ships from Chuzhou and Hezhou and four counties...... Now he is on standby at the mouth of the Yuxi River......"
Yu Dahai sincerely admired: "The fifth master not only uses soldiers like a god, but also acts quickly, but our side is delayed......"
Huo Wudao: "We are all acute...... On the side of the deputy capital, you should know that Sheng Shuangdao is strange, and it is good that the villain did not succeed! ”
Yu Dahai was gloomy: "I didn't expect it to be him who made a ghost!" Fortunately, the fifth master bystander is clear, Mr. Lin came quickly, and he reminded our father and son, otherwise it would be really capsized in the gutter this time! ”
Chaohu Water Division, the main force is Yu, Sheng, and An's three water bandits.
There are four fathers and sons in the Yu family, and the most powerful are the second, followed by the Sheng and An families.
These three families all started with their backs to Chaohu Lake and have relatives.
An Yong is Yu Dahai's sister-in-law, and Sheng Shuangdao is his brother-in-law and sworn brother.
Shou Tianguang used means to force the anti-Chaohu water division, and Yu, An and others returned to Daqing.
Sheng Shuangdao's purpose is to destroy the Yu and An families, dominate the sailors, and increase his own value.
The two sides had different purposes, and Sheng Shuangdao intercepted the envoys invited by Shou Tianwan to join the Yu and An families.
In the name of discussing the war of the Chaohu Water Division, Sheng Shuangdao set up a "Hongmen Banquet" to invite the Yu and An families.
Fortunately, An Yong and Master Lin arrived and stopped the two families who went to the banquet, saying their suspicions about Sheng Shuangdao.
Yu Vice Capital called people to surround the mansion, and at the same time brought everyone to the banquet to uncover the strangeness of the wine in person.
Unexpectedly, it was not poison in the drink, but sweat medicine.
For this reason, Sheng Shuangdao did not admit to poisoning Lao Dutong, and only said that he was worried about the future of the Chaohu Water Division, and wanted to rush out to fight the Luzhou soldiers, but he was afraid that the Yu and An families would not allow it, so he made this decision.
It's just opening your eyes and telling nonsense.
When the mansion was searched, it was found that Shou Tianwan's messenger and handwriting came.
Sheng Shuangdao has thousands of men and horses and hundreds of boats under his command.
These people are all descendants of the Sheng family, and they only listen to Sheng Shuangdao's orders.
Deputy Du Du didn't want civil strife at this time, so he put Sheng Shuangdao under house arrest.
