19. Let two chase three
After speaking, the princess took out a painting scroll from the eaves, and said that she originally wanted to revise it with the refiner, but she happened to meet you, so she gave it directly.
Gao Yue stretched out his hand to pick it up: "Please rest assured, princess, Yue will definitely treasure it." ”
Tang An laughed, and asked when he heard that Shaoyin was going to enter the Sanchuan camp as Zuo Sima and preside over the transfer of Shangjin Road, he was overjoyed and grateful, and he heard that Shaoyin had won a big victory in Manchuan Pass before, and his father was overjoyed in the pavilion, I don't know what Manchuan Pass looks like?
Gao Yue replied, "Those who are flooded with rivers should take the scenery of the mountains and rivers around the pass. ”
"That must be majestic."
"Exactly, the scenery is strong, and it does not reduce the western and northern frontiers."
The princess sighed slightly, thinking that it would be nice if she could go and see it in the future.
"Shaoyin, take care of yourself from now on, I hope you will support me." Then she waved her hand lightly, said goodbye to Gao Yue, and lowered the curtains.
In the pavilion in the courtyard, the emperor met Gao Yue alone, and cautiously tested the other party's tone and said: "The king of Hechuan County previously asked Wang Tong to be the assassin of Lizhou, and Zhao Guangxian was the assassin of Yangzhou, these two states are both Zhizhou counties of Xingyuan Mansion, and they should theoretically be under the jurisdiction of Gao Qing, but Wang and Zhao have been on the battlefield for a long time, have deep qualifications, and are the confidants of the king of Hechuan County, I am worried that Gao Qing will not be happy. ”
When Gao Yue heard this, the emperor actually conveyed this message to him:
Senior year of high school, senior year of high school, you can see that I am interesting enough for you to join the party! You and Wei Gao have risen so fast, but Li Sheng's power has swelled faster, you have to think of a way for me, otherwise you can't act happily, and I can't act on my own in the future.
Is this emperor trying to provoke the relationship between me and Li Sheng a little?
But it doesn't matter, Li Sheng and I want to form an alliance, but I also want to win over the emperor, the more balanced the power of the court, the better, so that I can put weight on all sides more quickly and continue to make progress.
Gao Yue thought for a while and said that His Majesty could "let the two chase the three".
"Please." The emperor didn't quite understand, so he asked Gao Yue to talk in detail about this "let two chase three" again.
"Didn't Your Majesty leave the horse servant in Hedong as an idle hand?" At this time, Gao Yue first mentioned Ma Sui meaningfully.
The emperor immediately understood, thinking that the third year of high school was really smart, knowing that when I was forming the Sanchuan and Sannan camps, I asked Cui Ning, Duan Xiushi, and Li Shengguang to return to Beijing, but I didn't mention Ma Sui, of course, it had a deep meaning.
This strategy was discussed by him and Lu Zhen and Zheng Qi in advance, and it seems that he can't hide it from Gao Yue.
"Let two, Your Majesty first let Lu Qi (depose Lu Qi as Sima of Fengzhou), and let Zhang Yansheng (if you want to make Zhang Yansheng the prime minister, you can't do it, compromise and let the ministers jointly nominate Xiao Fu as the prime minister); But you can chase three, which three? One is Ma Sui in Hedong, the second is to go out of Hechuan County King to Xichuan, and the third is ......"
When he said "three", Gao Yue showed a hesitant look on his face, full of unspeakable expressions.
The emperor looked around a little, and then asked Gao Yue to talk in detail about what kind of way to let Li Sheng go to Xichuan.
"Now the king of Hechuan County is the commander of the Shence camp, such as the town of Xichuan after the recovery of the Jingshi, firstly, it can contain Xifan, and secondly, it is convenient for His Majesty to restore the Shence army!"
As soon as he said this, the emperor came to his senses.
When he first succeeded to the throne, he successfully allowed Bai Zhizhen to seize military power from the king of the Shence Army; And now, if Li Sheng is allowed to continue to control the Shence Army after the recovery of the Beijing Division, this is really not a good thing.
Therefore, after Li Sheng went to Xichuan, he happened to be able to vacate the cage and change the birds, and reorganize the Shence army that was completely loyal to him.
"How?" The Emperor wanted to hear what to do.
Gao Yue suggested that the emperor might as well set up two Shence army battalions in the future to replace the original scattered camps in the northwest.
"Two large battalions."
"One is the Fengtian camp, or the right camp of Shence, which can be 50,000 people, and the army of Jingyuan, Fengxiang, Shannanxi, and Lingwu is rejected, mainly to deal with Xifan, waiting for the opportunity to recover Helong; One is the Bianzhou battalion, or the left battalion of Shence, which can be 30,000 or 40,000 people, and is rejected by the Biansong, Xu Sihao, Shannan Dongdao, Heyang and other armies, mainly monitoring the towns of Heshuo, Southeast, Jianghuai, and Ziqing to protect Caoyun. In addition, His Majesty can form a new army of 30,000 in the capital to replace the original Shence unity (this time, the Changwu Division changed, the Shence unity in Jinai was not good, and loyalty was especially problematic), called "the children of the apse", this army can guard the Beijing division, and the outside can cooperate with the left and right camps of the Shence to conquer the Quartet - the left and right camps of the Shence, plus the army of the children of the apse, a total of 120,000 people, and set up a military treasury and an ordnance supervisor, which is fully armed for the six armies of the Son of Heaven, and the traitors dare not covet the artifact. ”
"So how do you feed the army?" Li Shi is now completely afraid of the situation that the wealth of the whole world depends on a Cao River, once this Cao River is broken, the entire empire will immediately fall into a state of shock.
Gao Yue pointed out to the emperor on the floor with his hand:
Before Yang Yan was the phase, he pushed the two tax laws and divided the world's wealth into three products, namely the upper supply, the envoy and the state, so that the upper part of the offering, His Majesty does not have to travel to the whole Biansong Dynasty to a Cao River, but can take three Cao River routes.
one, the wealth of Huainan and Xuanrun, continued to go to the Biansong Dynasty, leaving a considerable part for the left camp of Shence;
Er, Jingnan, Hunan, Guiguan, Lingnan, Eyue, Jiangnan and other places of rice and silk wealth, go to the Yangtze River (Yangtze River), cross Jiangling Mansion, Kuifu (now Chongqing East), from Kuifu to the Western Han River (Jialing River), straight to Fengxiang, and Shu land wealth, for the right camp of Shence;
Three, there is also a spare Cao transport route, that is, the reopening of the chasm line in the ancient Qin and Han dynasties, this Cao River is safer than the Biansong Canal, and will not be threatened by Wei Bo, Ziqing and other secession towns, but the premise is to completely eliminate Huaixi Town.
The emperor understood, and once there were three Cao Yun lines, the main and secondary lines were clear, and they were backup to each other, and the safety factor was really much greater.
"I already know what Gao Qing said, and I hope I don't want to leak the words of this day."
Then the emperor asked Gao Yue again, so what is the third?
Gao Yue immediately paused, saying that the minister did not dare to speak.
Li Shi said that there is something unspeakable between you and me!
"Please ask Your Majesty to make Zhang Yu, the son-in-law of the King of Hechuan County, the assassin of Jianzhou."
Hearing this, Li Shi frowned, thinking that Li Sheng wanted to completely control the roads of Shu and Guanzhong, hoping to let his nephew Wang Tong be the assassin of Lizhou, Zhao Guang first for the assassin of Yangzhou, and then wanted his son-in-law Zhang Yu to be the assassin of Jianzhou, I resolutely left Zhang Yu by my side and made him the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, why did Gao Yue insist on fulfilling Li Sheng's wish?
But Gao Yue's next words made the emperor suddenly, "Please follow the example of the former Ming Emperor, personally take the exam in Fengtian City, and assign the seven, eight, and nine officials who accompany the Yuan to the county orders of the eastern and western states of Shannan, so how can the ministers not act happily for Your Majesty?" ”
Yes, Li Sheng can at most let his henchmen go to the state level as assassins, but the appointment and dismissal power of county-level officials is still in my hands, as long as I personally assess and replace the county orders of each state with my own people, then there are only a few assassins, Gao Yue, the young Yin of Xingyuan Mansion, who is pressing, and there are county orders to restrain and divide power, how can I do it?
Since ancient times, from the state power to the small company, why is it divided into the upper level, the middle level and the grassroots level? Quite simply, it is for the distribution and competition of power - sometimes the upper level instructs the middle level to oppress the grassroots, and sometimes the grassroots will unite with the middle level to resist the upper level, and Gao Yue's move is for the upper level to win over the grassroots level to control the middle level.
"Please Gao Qing take the county orders of Xingyuan Mansion as the guide." The Emperor said immediately.
It means that Gao Yue opened the list.
