Chapter 261: Taking over the military and political affairs
Ye Chen's efficiency is high, and he started to act the next day after arranging.
The first thing is to take over the Taishou Mansion, and the first thing to grasp is the military power, the Ye family's army turned positive, and the original county soldiers were disbanded, and then the guard battalion became the county soldiers.
The advantage of this is that some of the expenses of the guard camp can be paid by the county, and there is no need for the Ye family to bear it, but now the county's finances cannot support the guard camp at all, so the Ye family still needs to bear part of it.
When Ye Chen appeared in the Taishou Mansion, Taishou Li Wei was already waiting there.
Li Wei's mood is very complicated now, he finally controlled Liaodong, but at this time, the imperial court let Ye Chen take over, Li Wei was naturally very unwilling, but he knew that the Ye family's power in Liaodong was too large, and he didn't dare not hand over power, and the imperial court also arranged a new position for him.
It's just that he always has to make a fortune when he leaves, so he wants to delay the handover as much as possible, but he didn't expect that Ye Chen would bring someone to Taishou Mansion the next day after he came back.
"Haha, General Ye, I didn't expect to be absent for more than a year, and now you are already too guarded." Li Wei warmly welcomed Ye Chen and the others in.
This time, Ye Chen brought many people to the Taishou Mansion, and Guan Yu and Tai Shici were among them, in order to suppress people with power and complete the handover as soon as possible.
"Ye Taishou just came back, why did he come to me if he didn't rest first." Li Wei said easily, but Ye Chen heard it, he didn't want to hand over yet, and he regarded this place as his territory, so what did he say to him.
Ye Chen smiled and didn't refute him, how many people did he bring here today and didn't take them in vain.
"Alas, Lord Li, the emperor's order is in his body, and he doesn't dare to slack off for a moment, so he came to this Taishou Mansion early to hand over to Lord Li, so I can start to exterminate Wuhuan, otherwise I will delay the emperor's order, and I will have to live up to His Majesty's entrustment."
Ye Chen's words were thorny, explaining that the handover was to exterminate Wuhuan, if Li Wei hindered it, then it was to hinder Ye Chen from exterminating Wuhuan, this high hat was not finished, and finally said that he would have to disappoint the emperor's entrustment was actually a warning to Li Wei.
Li Wei is an old fritter in officialdom, how can he not hear it, the corners of his mouth twitched, he is really not good at Ye Chen's soft knife, and if he doesn't handle it well, he will suffer a crime, but Li Wei doesn't want to give in like this.
"Haha, what Ye Taishou said is that the emperor's order is important, I will start sorting it out tomorrow, straighten things out, and then hand over to Lord Ye as soon as possible." Li Wei snorted and said to Ye Chen with a smile.
Ye Chen sneered in his heart, of course he knew what Li Wei was thinking, it was just an excuse to delay time. Now that Ye Chen is in power, and there are people in the court, he is not afraid of offending Li Wei at all.
"Thank you Lord Li for your cooperation, it's just that the suppression of Wuhuan is urgent, so I'm going to start arranging the suppression of bandits, and as for handing over to you, I can take my time."
Li Wei smiled awkwardly after listening to Ye Chen's words, Ye Chen said that he wanted to suppress bandits, could he object?
"What Lord Ye said is that this is important to exterminate Wuhuan, and Wuhuan is important." Li Wei said curtly.
Ye Chen listened to his words and grinned, he saw Li Wei's reaction in his eyes, and there was no need to be polite to him now.
So Ye Chen began to order in front of Li Wei: "Where is Guan Yu?" ”
"The Last Will Be"
"I ordered you to be the commander to immediately take over the city defense of Xiangping City, start arranging defenses, and start organizing the army, preparing to send troops to exterminate Wuhuan."
"Yes, my subordinates understand." Guan Yu was ordered to stand aside.
"Where is Tai Shi Ci?"
"The end will be."
"Order you to take over the county town's officials, patrol and arrest all armed personnel except the city defense army, start patrolling inside and outside the city, strictly investigate all black and evil spies, and arrest them immediately if they are found."
"The last general commands." Tai Shi Ci also stood aside after receiving the order.
"Where is Guo Jia?"
"The subordinates are here."
"Ordered you to be the county leader, start taking over all the resources of the county, prepare supplies, and prepare for the army to go on the march."
"Yes."
Li Wei was dumbfounded when he heard this, not only was the county and the county's armed forces taken over by Ye Chen, but even if he appointed the county, he would be hollowed out.
Originally, the county should have been appointed by himself, and he hadn't handed over the power yet, Ye Chen didn't have the power to appoint, but what did Ye Chen say when he appointed?
Ye Chen said that he wanted Guo Jia to start preparing supplies to prepare for the soldiers to prepare for the expedition, but at this time, Li Wei dared to object? If he objected, it would be against Ye Chen sending troops to fight against Wu Huan, then the problem would be serious, even if Ye Chen immediately arrested him and sent him to the imperial court, then no one would have anything to say.
But if he really let Ye Chen do something, then his little caution would be useless, and he would be completely hollowed out, even if he still occupied the position of Taishou, what was the use.
Ye Chen's first step was to completely take over the military and politics, leaving nothing for Li Wei at all, today he took over the military and political affairs of the county, and tomorrow his henchmen will be replaced or incorporated one by one, who would dare to resist Ye Chen at this time.
But Li Wei can't compromise like this, because he wants to use the time of the handover to get a handful and leave, Liaodong is already poor, he has been sitting on the cold bench for so long, and he can't immediately control Liaodong after he comes to power, so if he calculates it like this, he will lose money when he comes to Liaodong.
This made Li Wei very unwilling, but the holy decree of the imperial court came too suddenly, he was not prepared at all, he originally wanted to be able to fish slowly, but now Ye Chen is also very sudden, and he wants to take over everything at once, if this is the case, the officials below will definitely not listen to him immediately.
He is an outsider, and Ye Chen is a local wealthy family, and now that Ye Chen has taken over the military and political affairs of the county, then the officials below naturally know how to choose.
In fact, what Li Wei didn't know was that Ye Chen also started to operate, and the officials under him would also be replaced by him, even if Li Wei wanted to get any benefits through them, the county guard was here, Ye Chen watched, and he couldn't do anything.
Didn't Li Wei want to delay time, despite the delay, anyway, now it's an empty shell Taishou, how long do you like to stay, if something happens, I can still take you to the top of the tank, anyway, I haven't handed over yet.
Ye Chen's actions made Li Wei very sad and angry, and there was no good way, but it was impossible to make him compromise on this.
After Li Wei sent Ye Chen away, he began to act quietly, he began to contact the families who had cooperated with him, Li Wei relied on them to grasp the situation in Liaodong in the first place, but Li Wei forgot that it was Ye Chen who helped these families to support him in the first place.
Not only that, Li Wei also sent people to contact the main officials of the counties below to try to stop Ye Chen.
How could all this escape Ye Chen's eyes, this Liaodong is the Ye family's base camp, Ye Chen received these news, smiled, didn't say anything, and didn't care about them for the time being.
