Chapter 152: Rank

Starting from the edge of the Di River, Ye Tao did not stop on the road after passing through the Thunder Cliff.

On the third day of his departure from Thunder Cliff, the battle report of the Wolf Plain Strangulation Battle caught up with him. As he expected, although it was hard, Dai Yun still led the coalition forces to victory. One of the reasons for learning that the Kolka tribal alliance has stalled is that some tribes want to divide up the Wolf Plains first, while some tribes prefer to go south to plunder and then return to the northern grasslands, not even the Wolf Plains, which seems to have been successful. The different opinions made the Kolka tribe tired of mediation, and just a day before they had reached an agreement to continue their journey south, and a large banquet was held at the Kolka tribe's camp. After knowing such news, Dai Yun didn't even wait for several other troops to attack simultaneously, and launched a strong attack on the main camp of the Kolka tribe overnight. Although the scouts of the Kolka tribe did not let Dai Yun's troops force them to the gate of the camp to find out, the short warning time limit of 40 miles was really not enough for the tens of thousands of people in Kolka. Although the remaining four armies scattered in the attack were defeated in battles with the northern tribal alliance, they defeated the Kolka tribe and drove the Kolka tribe north. Dai Yun deliberately let go of the groups of messengers who "broke through", and let them go to ask for help from the other members of the Northern Tribal Alliance who were stationed elsewhere. In the face of the same attacks, these couriers may be able to make those tribes collapse faster. By the time the battle report reached Ye Tao's hands, Dai Yun had already annihilated 110,000 enemies at the cost of 44,000 casualties in the whole army, captured more than 100 tribal leaders and important figures, and completely drove the northern tribes out of the Wolf Plain, and was also led by the Blood Qi Army and Tie Yun Cavalry. and the elite cavalry of the Yunzhou tribal alliance army carried out a rolling pursuit. Dai Yun expressed very clearly in the battle report that for the Blood Qi Army, the battle record is no longer a problem, and letting the Blood Qi Army continue to fight is to a greater extent to let the Blood Qi Army cavalry accumulate more combat experience, especially grassland operations and continuous operations.

The casualties paid by the Blood Qi Army were not small, and in the battle report, the casualties had reached more than 1,700. However, it played with prestige. The blood unicorn army with high morale and full of self-confidence has passed the test of brutal battles, and has also achieved victory, making them more temperamental to be the strongest army in the world.

On the day he returned to Danyang, Ye Tao actually found that there were already some people who were welcoming him when he left Danyang. If it is as a governor. You can enjoy such treatment when you return from the expedition, but in fact, during Ye Tao's time in Yunzhou, the position of governor of other places has been revoked. The successor to the governor of the canal was none other than Tan Weiming, the prince of Dongping. After all, the number of children of the family serving under the Canal Governor's Mansion is too many. Although Tan Weiming has no experience in directly controlling the entire local government affairs, he is the prince of Dongping after all. The future lord of Dongping, he can control these children of the family, and taking over the work structure that Ye Tao has established can be regarded as a good experience of doing local government affairs internships. And the lord of the kingdom made such an arrangement. It may be more important to pay more attention to the young people under the Canal Governor's Mansion who are gradually showing their abilities in all aspects, which means that Tan Weiming will be in contact with these people to prepare for his own ruling team in the future. There is no doubt that the current "governor" is much more serious and has received much more resolute support from all quarters than to reluctantly accept the appointment of the governor.

However, due to Ye Tao's departure, Suo Zheng returned to the Blood Qi Army. Overseer Lu Dan also wanted to follow Ye Tao to the next position, Feng Wei even sold Ye Tao's land from the beginning to hang a position in the Governor's Mansion, and Tan Weiming actually had to reorganize the Governor's Mansion with a full team. As for Ye Tao's departure from office, it is logical to disband the pro-army team or something, no one has mentioned this kind of thing, because Ye Tao's next position may not be the same as the governor, but at least it will not be lower than the same level as the second-level governor, and according to Ye Tao's character and ability, this appointment will definitely not be a civilian-type position in the center. The guards or something. It's easier to keep it.

For Tan Weiran to appear in the crowd to greet Ye Tao, it still caused many people to be surprised. He was a prince after all. But Tan Weiran's attitude was very bland, he only said that he greeted Ye Tao in a private capacity, not on behalf of the royal family. But in any case, the Tan family's blue eyes for Ye Tao are also engraved in their eyes.

Although he was not prepared for such a greeting, Ye Tao greeted everyone, took the document from the official of the ministry asking him to report on his work within ten days, and slowly entered Danyang with the group. In the carriage, Ye Tao handed over the plan, which was bound to be more than three inches thick, to Tan Weiran and asked him to forward it to Tan Xiaopei. Ye Tao especially emphasized the importance and confidentiality of this thing. It is safer to present this document through Tan Weiran than for him to use his current power to send things to the lord of the country, after all, although no one has the right to read the secret fold, he will still leave a record of the time of submission, and through Tan Weiran, even such traces will not be left. And Tan Weiran only unfolded the thick plan and glanced at it a few times, and was fascinated by the content inside.

"Brother-in-law, did you agree with your sister?" Tan Weiran said with a smile: "My sister is now being urged by my father to take out the planning of the Dongping Central Clerkship, and I have asked my sister to come up with ideas on how to separate the internal guards from the inner government and how to establish a first-class intelligence agency." My sister came up with a plan for the organizational structure of the intelligence bureau, but she refused to come up with an idea of how to do it. With you, I'm afraid the opening of the Intelligence Bureau will be much more interesting. ”

Ye Tao raised his eyebrows and said innocently: "This is a whim, with this idea, it is just a matter of gradually imagining and perfecting it, there are still many deficiencies in the distance from being able to really operate this matter." Moreover, there is a lot of preparation to be made for the establishment of that intelligence bureau, so it is not that simple. But the line buried in Xiling now must be followed up in time. ”

Tan Weiran nodded and said, "Father is still worried about who the Intelligence Bureau will let take care of, it seems that you are very suitable, brother-in-law." Can you come up with that ...... With such a careful plan, it is estimated that there is no such person in the internal guard yamen. Zeng Man's many practices, as well as the practices of the guy who is now in charge. It's really ...... It's so uninspiring. ”

Ye Tao said nervously: "Don't, I don't want to care about this intelligence bureau." If only I had an idea, wouldn't it be okay for me to take it easy for a while? Your sister also wrote to me and told me that in that clerical office, in terms of confidentiality, document archiving and management, there are still many, many new tools, can't I help your sister finish this first? ”

Tan Weiran said disapprerovingly: "My sister may not really be able to manage this matter for a long time." Why are you all so lazy? Many of the Dai family's industries in Yunzhou have to be converted from private to government-run, or they will be cleared of large businesses that we can trust. The Dai family in order to avoid suspicion. You have to give up a lot of privileges, but it's a big question how to transfer these properties and so on. A bad one became the Dongping government's encroachment on the Dai family's property, and the father and the elders of the Dai family meant that the Dongping Inner Mansion would buy it at a suitable price and be managed by the Inner Government. The valuation, and how to do business that we are completely unfamiliar with, is a headache. Moreover, the Dai family's industry is huge, and how to pay for it is another problem, although the inner government is now rich. But...... I can't afford to buy a state, almost the entire Yunzhou is the private property of the Dai family. My father's intention is that he hopes that his sister can take on this matter. As for the Central Clerkship, it seems that it is ready to let Huang Situ continue to prepare, and prepare to let your senior brother go out to solve those technical problems. You. Don't overdo it. ”

Ye Tao smiled bitterly and said, "What is overkill, I'm just so capable." ”

Tan Weiran said with a smile: "What do you mean by such ability? Your terms about those tribes in Yunzhou, my father is very appreciative, but. It has caused a lot of disputes in the court, and they have been busy preparing for the handover of Yunzhou recently. It is necessary to select the first batch of officials to enter Yunzhou, to send troops to take over the defense of Yunzhou, to prepare a large amount of funds to dismiss or reorganize the original city defense forces in Yunzhou, and even to prepare a large number of gifts to make friends with the local gentry and wealthy families in Yunzhou and understand the local situation...... Although the Dai family has been doing their best to help, there are so many things. Even I was sent so that my feet didn't fall to the ground. ”

Ye Tao teased: "You are busy. But isn't it a good family affair to have a door? ”

Because both the Dongping royal family and the Dai family had a need to further deepen the relationship between each other, they hit it off and decided on the marriage of Dai Xi, the youngest daughter of Dai Shiheng, the current supreme military commander of the Dai family, and Tan Weiran. The age difference between the two is similar, the elders of the Dai family are extremely satisfied with Tan Weiran's demeanor, and the Dongping royal family has always attached importance to family and affection, and it is almost impossible for there to be a fight between brothers for the throne, and the Dai family is also very relieved about the safety and security in this regard. Although Dai Xi is not like Dai Yun, he can almost be regarded as a traveler and explorer of this era, but he is not a lady who is generally hidden in the depths of the boudoir. Dai Xi's maternal grandmother was still the most famous grassland flower of the northern Shuo tribe back then, although her mother was only relatively delicate. But it was inherited from generation to generation. It seems that there is a blue ground posture. With Dai Xi's identity and the prestige of the Dai family, naturally there will be no one who is not afraid of death to make up the title of the first beauty in Yunzhou. But Dai Xi's appearance made Tan Weiran, who thought he had seen the world very much in this regard, also lost his mind when he first saw it. Dai Xi grew up, not less jumping on the grassland, straightforward and lively, what is even more amazing is that Dai Xi almost changed a set of clothes to have a temperament, when wearing a long skirt is a lady, put on a hunting suit and ride a horse naturally on the heroic style, put on the grassland girl's clothes to show a natural and enthusiastic nature, when wearing Dai Yun in Danyang's spare armor, the corner of the mouth a faint smile and the confident light flashing in the eyes will immediately make people think of Dai Xi's father is the current leader of Yunzhou, Dai Xi is behind the door......

For such a fiancée, Tan Weiran is naturally very satisfied. Recently, he has been looking for various opportunities to strengthen his relationship with his fiancée. And Dai Xi is obviously quite satisfied with him.

Tan Weiran raised his eyebrows proudly, then sighed, lowered his voice and said, "However, Dai Dujun is a problem...... I think Dai Overseer must be twenty-two, twenty-three years old, right? It is said that no one in Yunzhou dares to marry her, and the Dai family now wants to tell Dai Yun about family affairs, but Dai Dujun's identity and experience are there, and the right age and identity are all married, can Dai Dujun still be a concubine? Gao Zhuo is of the right age, but the Dai family doesn't look down on Gao Zhuo's style, and when the middleman suggests, he was rejected, and this word reached Gao Sima, and now, it is said that the Dai family and Gao Sima are a little stiff. Right now...... Dai Overseer's life's event......"

After all, it involves good friends and old acquaintances, Ye Tao's eyebrows furrowed. Probably used to seeing the kind of women who didn't get married until they were in their thirties or even couldn't get married until they were forty, Ye Tao was not so sensitive to Dai Yun's age, and now that Tan Weiran said this, he just realized that the problem seemed to be a bit serious. He casually asked, "So what do you say now?" ”

Tan Weiran said helplessly: "You can't be a concubine, but you can be a concubine." ”

Ye Tao was surprised: "Your Majesty was even reluctant to marry Concubine Lian at the beginning, but now you are willing to marry Dai Yun?" ”

Tan Weiran coughed and said embarrassedly: "It's not my father, it's my brother." Although the age is not appropriate, the identity is appropriate...... However, it is even more unlikely that the ministers of the Asari will support this suggestion, if the two of us brothers marry two women from the Dai family, will this situation be ...... You know what people think. ”

Ye Tao shrugged. This situation is naturally clear, and everyone will definitely imagine that the Dai family relied on two women to peacefully evolve Dongping. This association is just terrifying.

Their conversation in the carriage continued. Suddenly, a stone was stuck, the carriage jumped slightly, and the document of the official that Ye Tao had put on the utility shelf on the side slipped down. Tan Weiran saw this document, smiled evilly, and said: "Brother-in-law, it is estimated that the debriefing of the Ministry will be moved to the front of the emperor by my father, and by the way, I will ask you about the policy of the Yunzhou tribe, I will give you a reminder first, if there is anything that needs to be prepared, then prepare it first." Originally, according to my father's wishes, you came back this time and prepared to let you choose one of several positions. One is the director of the Ordnance Department of the Ministry of Industry and the title of the processing department, the other is the deputy governor of the Yuejun Mansion after the restructuring of the inspection government of the two armies, and the other is the governor of Liangzhou, who is estimated to be very popular with you, so you will be asked to return to Yicheng and transfer Peng Detian to Yunzhou as the acting party...... But now......" Tan Weiran waved the thick plan in his hand and said, "I guess you don't have much choice." Those positions are all three grades, but the Intelligence Bureau is scheduled to be two grades, and you will be compensated in terms of level. I know you don't want to, but ...... Who made you so gifted in this area? ”
