Chapter 251: Military Power

With the opening of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, Yangzhou, which was originally not very inconspicuous, suddenly became the pearl of the world, and it seems that the best poems that the poets of the world can exhaust are all the best verses to him.

Although Qin Hao and Li Tai and the others did not come by riding cranes in March of fireworks, Yangzhou City in early autumn was also beautiful, especially for these men in Guanzhong, it seemed that even the wind blowing was soft.

The voyage that lasted more than a month is finally over, although the building ship is very stable, and there are enough entertainment measures on it, but it is quite unbearable to hold the boat for a long time, especially in the last few days, when I know that it is about to arrive, I miss the feeling of stepping on land.

The local officials of Yangzhou Mansion who had already received the news waited respectfully on the shore, but Qin Hao didn't know how he went down, because he was here to pick up Li Tai, and he was an exiled guy who naturally didn't have this treatment, and it didn't seem to be a good thing to go down with Li Tai in case he received this kneeling gift, and it seemed even worse if he fell behind Li Tai, as for going down before Li Tai, wouldn't it be even worse for everyone to kneel and stand alone.

In the end, Qin Hao really had no other tricks, so he had to get off the boat one step ahead of Li Tai, and mixed in the crowd to follow the rhythm and salute Li Tai, which was quite awkward.

"Your Highness, Prince Qin, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion has been cleaned up, and the lower officials will bring the two princes over."

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man who was as thin as a hemp stick, with a small goatee, and his face was as white as a kidney deficiency.

Although it is said that a boss fell from the sky, Comrade Yan has actually been looking forward to the stars and the moon for a long time, and in the days when Li Tai did not come, he was going crazy.

In the past, although this Yangzhou county order was not the emperor of the soil, it was also a good life, and it was really the best choice to retire and spend the rest of his life, and I don't know how many others envied him.

But it's not the same since the development of Yangzhou, he can hardly afford to make a fortune here, sometimes if someone has some disputes to him, he can be killed, just like the last time the steward of the Changsun family and the steward of the Wei Chi family fought, when he came here, he wanted these two goods to beat himself.

This is such a big project, what is the matter with throwing Lao Tzu into a mere six-grade official? Play it!

Now it's okay, the real Metropolitan Governor has finally arrived, and the sky is falling and there is a high top, if the development is good, it can still be regarded as his own political achievements.

Li Tai patted him on the shoulder seemingly casually and said, "It's hard to be strict with the county order, let's stop blocking this dock, you can lead our local officials to the Governor's Mansion to discuss matters." ”

"Yes."

…………

Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is actually a very wasteful place, he rebuilt in Yang Guang's Jiangdu Palace, although the size is a little worse, but exquisite and luxurious, even slightly better than the Taiji Palace, but no one lives in it all year round.

Almost everyone thinks that this Metropolitan Governor's Mansion may have to continue to be abandoned for at least one hundred and eighty years, unless one day Datang and Baiyue have a war, will Datang and Baiyue have a war? Lend them a few guts.

Unexpectedly, today, the door of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion opened for a long time.

Li Tai happily sat on his main seat, and there was a complete white tiger skin behind him, which looked imposing.

Li Tai probably has never received this treatment, looking at the respectful faces below, he wanted to say something with one mouth, but when the words reached his throat, he found that he couldn't speak his fart, and his face was red for a while.

Qin Hao couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, no matter how precocious this Li Tai was, after all, he was only a teenager, how could he have the opportunity to contact government affairs in Chang'an on weekdays, and it would be a shame if he really said something.

In the end, Li Tai really had no choice but to hold back: "That... Du Changshi, you sit next to the king. ”

Du Chuke smiled kindly, and unceremoniously sat on Li Tai's left hand side, and just wanted to say something, he heard Li Tai continue: "Brother Zhenheng, you can also sit down." ”

Qin Hao smiled and nodded, and sat down on Li Tai's right hand unceremoniously, and everyone didn't think there was anything wrong, but Du Chuke's face darkened.

He is the long history of the palace, and it is justifiable to sit next to Li Tai, which onion and garlic is this Qin Hao? I thought that this trip when I followed King Yue to Yangzhou was when Kunpeng spread his wings, what did he know as a half-grown child? At that time, in this state, such a big project, it is not up to you to have the final say.

But as a result, there was still a share of credit.

Du Chuke was already unhappy with Qin Hao, and it was even more so after teaching Xiao Deyan a lesson that day, looking at him was even more angry than seeing the enemy who killed his father, but he couldn't help but pay attention to him, although he was also a half-grown child, but I am afraid that no one in the world would treat him as a child anymore.

Thinking of this, although Du Chuke hated it in his heart, he had to pretend to be smiling and motioned for Qin Hao to invite first.

Qin Hao was also not polite, and said directly: "Yan County Order, I don't know how many people are there in our Wuhou in Yangzhou, patrolling the camp, and the naval army now?" ”

"Uh... Back to His Royal Highness, back to Qin Langzhong, Yangzhou now has 200 Wuhou, 500 patrols, and a naval army. Some are deserted. ”

Qin Hao sighed and said, "How can this be done, although Yangzhou has not experienced war for a long time, but such a few people are not enough to protect the safety of His Highness." ”

Turning his head to Li Tai, he said, "Your Highness, I think we might as well recruit a few government soldiers, and we don't need too much, three thousand should be enough." ”

It is the duty of the metropolitan governor to recruit and train the government army, but it is useless to ask for the government army in Yangzhou, and even the weekday training is to deal with it, but no matter what you say, there is still a establishment, and there is nothing wrong with letting Li Tai transfer 3,000 people into the city, and there is no need for the approval of Zhongshu Province, as long as you make a report afterwards.

But such a fluttering sentence will become a thunderbolt when it falls into the ears of others, and the good guy will transfer troops first without even recognizing all the people, is this really just to speak harder in the future? The murder weapon of the soldiers, when transferred in, always needs to be used.

As for how to use it and who to use it on, it is a question worth pondering.

"Your Royal Highness, General Xu used to be trained by the government corps, and he was deeply respected by the Duke of Weiguo, and there should be no higher than him among the martial artists of Yangzhou City, and the soldiers of Yangzhou Mansion have not practiced for a long time, so it is better to let General Xu practice on his behalf."

As soon as these words came out, Du Chuke, who had been pretending to be deep, pulled off his beard, and his body was penetrated in a cold sweat. Even if they want to use soldiers, this military power should be in the hands of their own lineage in the Yue Wangfu, how can there be a reason for outsiders?

I want to oppose it, but I can't think of a very suitable reason for a while, after all, he is also a civil official, Xu Jie's official position is Zuo Wuwei's lieutenant general, and the military attache in Luoyang is not as big as anyone else's, so he has to give Li Tai a strong look, hoping that he can understand it in time, and then delay it first.

It's a pity that Du Chuke underestimated the trust between Li Tai and Qin Hao too much, and Li Tai didn't even think about this major military power matter, so he simply said: "It's accurate."
