"Ignorant juniors, what are they, they dare to run here and bark wildly! Go back to the old man's last book and impeach them all! ”

Jia Xianggong was domineering, patted his chest and said: "Erlang, this matter is handed over to me, the old man went to Beijing in person and explained the reason clearly with the official, the truth is on our side, the old man is not afraid of anything." ”

Wang Ningan glanced at Lao Jia, if it weren't for the sake of our two families, I would have sprayed you to death with a sip of Lu'an tea!

Now it's out to pretend to be garlic, and before, if it weren't for your old guy making a mess, it wouldn't have been like this!

"Jia Xianggong, don't bother you, I have already sent Chen Shunzhi to Beijing, he has met Your Majesty, and he will make my thoughts clear." Wang Ning'an sighed, "Before the battle, we were thinking about how to deal with the enemy, but in the capital, the big guys are calculating what will happen if they are defeated, it is really chicken and duck, no wonder it has always been difficult to lead troops in the front, and they are all willing to say that the general will not be affected by the king's life outside!" ”

The last time he recovered Youzhou, Zhao Zhen drove the expedition in person, from beginning to end, Uncle Zhao didn't do anything, at most to boost morale, Wang Ningan didn't feel anything.

But this time Uncle Zhao didn't come, and Wang Ningan obviously felt aware.

For example, the last time Zhao Zhen had any ideas, he immediately communicated with Wang Ningan, and the monarch and ministers discussed whether it was proper or not, and then implemented it immediately, and there was no chance for others to interfere at all.

But this time is different, Zhao Zhen stayed in the capital, and he naturally looked forward to eliminating Western Xia, looking forward to washing away the shame and expanding the territory. And he encountered something, and the first person to ask was not Wang Ningan, but the minister in Beijing.

Among these ministers, there are all kinds of people.

Some have a hot brain, some welcome the emperor, and some are secretly scheming...... All in all, as soon as the guys with all kinds of thoughts get involved, things go sour.

Of the thousands of officials in Beijing, few of them mentioned Hanhai, and no one counted supplies!

You must know that the so-called 700 miles of Hanhai is a huge swamp south of Lingzhou in Western Xia, all the way to Hengshan, the environment is harsh, especially in summer, under the artemisia grass, it is all black mud, full of mosquitoes, not to mention that the army has passed, even if the cattle and sheep pass from the Hanhai, it is easy to fall into the swamp, or be bitten to death by mosquitoes.

The 700-mile Hanhai Sea is the natural barrier of Xingqing Mansion, and if you want to cross the Hanhai, you can do it by talking!

Wang Ningan felt more and more that letting laymen participate in military affairs would only be bad.

The last reform of the administration restored the power of the military department and reduced the relative size of the Privy Council.

Now it seems that it is not enough to just be in charge of the army in the military department and the army in the Privy Council!

It is also necessary to add a staff officer system, appoint important ministers who really understand military affairs, preside over the general staff, and draw up operational plans in accordance with professional opinions.

If there is a general staff, and Uncle Zhao has the heart to change his strategy and expand the results of the battle, he must ask the opinion of the general staff, and the general staff will stand up to it, and there will be no situation where the hundred officials are angry and the emperor sends a messenger to investigate...... It seems that the road to reform is still long and long!

Wang Ningan immediately started writing and wrote down a proposal for setting up a staff department, preparing to play Zhao Zhen at the right time.

"Jia Xianggong, convince Your Majesty, I am still sure, most of the people in the capital will not add to the chaos. It's just that these three Qincha, you have to help me keep an eye on them, and don't let them make trouble during this time. ”

Jia Changchao nodded, "Erlang, don't worry, the old man doesn't eat dry rice, they are a few rabbit cubs, and they can't turn the sky upside down!" ”

Wang Ning'an dealt with the matter of Qincha, and immediately ordered to speed up the migration from Hengshan, and be sure to move these people to Qinzhou and other places before the autumn.

Hundreds of thousands of immigrants, in the future generations, is not a small project, let alone the Great Song Dynasty.

Moreover, Wang Ningan sent the most capable talents to the Western Regions, and he did not have many talents at hand, so he had to transfer Lu Tao and Chen Wei over and let them follow Su Shi to deal with immigration matters.

They are very diligent, but Su Shi is soft-hearted, Lu Tao and Chen Yu are too inexperienced, and they can't compare to Lu Huiqing and Zhang Dun and others, Wang Ningan has to personally supervise them, and they are entangled in all kinds of affairs, often busy until late at night, and they can't sleep for two hours a day.

……

"This is 700 miles of Hanhai, and it really lives up to its name!"

Chen Shengzhi stood on the shore of the Hanhai Sea, looking around, a large area of fog, and after approaching, he could smell a foul smell, dark black mud, shallow water bubbles, constantly bubbling, as if he was about to boil a pot.

All this made Chen Shengzhi feel fresh, Gao Zunyu and Tan Xian didn't speak, just frowned and watched.

Wang Ningan told them to pay attention to Hanhai, and when they arrived, it was worse than they imagined. Gao Zunyu personally led the war horse over, wanting to take a walk with his subordinates.

He was about to make a move when suddenly a squad of soldiers rushed over, and the leader immediately stopped him.

"Just go in, don't die!"

Gao Zunyu frowned, reined in the war horse, he didn't squeak, and his subordinates immediately asked: "What are you yelling about, my family wants to go in and investigate!" ”

The visitor was not afraid at all, and sneered: "In this swamp, there are many aquatic plants that can cut through the skin, and sharp grass roots can pierce the soles of the feet. If the skin is broken, the poisonous gas in the muddy water will seep in, and it will be infected with ulcers, but it will be fatal! ”

"Ahh

Gao Zunyu was startled, unconsciously took two steps back, his face changed color, and then he looked at Hanhai, it was like watching a big oil pot in hell, and his heart was empty.

"Is this Hanhai really that dangerous?"

"Not only that, there are still many poisonous insects in Hanhai, and if you want to go in, you must wear anthelmintic herbs on your body. In addition, don't look at the Hanhai Sea, there is muddy water everywhere, but these waters cannot be drunk, and you must carry enough clear water to do it......" The person who came introduced more than a dozen taboos for marching in the Hanhai, and Gao Zunyu's heart was shocked when he heard it, and he didn't dare to go inside anymore.

At this time, Chen Shengzhi also came over, and when he saw the little soldier talking, he suddenly felt a little familiar.

"You, you're Han...... Han Zhongyan, right? ”

This person's body was shocked, the last thing he wanted to see was an acquaintance, but he didn't expect that the other party would be able to recognize his appearance!

Chen Shengzhi saw that the other party was embarrassed, so he was sure.

"Virtuous nephew, you come with your uncle."

Chen Shengzhi pulled Han Zhongyan and went to a poplar tree in the distance, and sent all the servants away, Chen Shengzhi looked at it for a long time, full of emotion!

"Virtuous nephew, how did you become like this, if it weren't for your voice, my uncle would almost not be able to recognize it!"

Chen Shengzhi calls himself an uncle, it's really not close, he really deserves it!

Qingli failed in the new policy, Han Qi was transferred abroad, and knew about Yangzhou affairs, and during his tenure, Han Qi made many friends, and Chen Shengzhi was one of them.

Once, a peony raised by Han Qi's mansion bloomed, no more, no less, exactly four flowers, this flower is not trivial. The petals are red up and down, and a circle of golden stamens is surrounded in the middle, so it is called the golden waist, also called the golden belt circumference.

People say that when the golden belt is blooming, there will be a prime minister in the city.

At that time, Han Qi invited three friends, namely Wang Qi, Wang Anshi, and Chen Shengzhi!

Han Qi cut off the largest one, wore it himself, and cut three more flowers and put them on the three of them.

It is also interesting to say, a few years later, Han Qi returned to the capital and became one of the most powerful figures in the Great Song Dynasty.

In addition to Han Qi, Wang Qi is now the deputy minister, and coincidentally, Wang Anshi is also the deputy minister, and the four people who wear flowers have three ministers.

Only Chen Shengzhi is only a squire in the military department, but he is young, if everything goes well, he will also pay homage to the prime minister!

In other words, the four people who wore gold and belts became prime ministers...... If there are any book friends who want to take the official ape exam, it is best to find a gold belt to wear in advance, maybe in a few decades, you will be one of the strongest men's groups...... Rattle!

Since the hairpin banquet, Chen Shengzhi and Han Qi have made friends, and the relationship between the two sides is very good, but later Han Qi entered Beijing, Chen Shengzhi served in the local government, and there were fewer contacts, and later when Chen Shengzhi was transferred to the capital, Han Qi was killed again!

Being able to meet the descendants of the Han family in the northwest, Chen Shengzhi was very surprised.

"Virtuous nephew, have you really become a martial artist?"

Han Zhongyan nodded.

Chen Shengzhi immediately said angrily: "It's just nonsense, when my uncle returns to Beijing, I will definitely help you find a way, the dignified Wenyuan is clear, how can you be in the company of a bunch of vulgar people, insulting Sven, insulting Sven!" ”

Han Zhongyan was stunned for a moment, smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Uncle's good intentions, the little nephew has it, it's just that the little nephew is the son of a criminal minister, and he can't make trouble for his uncle, and then my father will confess before he dies, I hope to see the day when the Hetao is recovered and the Western Xia is eliminated!" The younger nephew joined the army, precisely to fulfill his father's last wish, and asked his uncle to fulfill it. ”

"I see."

Chen Shengzhi lowered his head and thought about it, suddenly called Han Zhongyan to his side, and asked in a low voice: "Virtuous nephew, can you tell your uncle whether you should fight Western Xia or not?" ”

Chen Shengzhi stared at Han Zhongyan, his eyes facing each other, extremely serious.

"Uncle...... I'm just a petty official, I'm not familiar with the situation, how can I talk nonsense. ”

"It's okay, you're honest, uncle wants to hear your opinion!"

"Uncle must ask, then the little nephew will say it directly, the time is not ripe!"

Chen Sheng was stunned, he thought that Han Zhongyan would encourage him to send troops! Now it seems that he and Wang Ningan have a grudge against killing their father, and they have the same opinion.

That proves that you really can't fight...... Chen Shengzhi became more and more entangled, and it seemed that he could only write like this.

"Virtuous nephew, do you want to go to your uncle, let's have a long talk."

Han Zhongyan said: "Uncle, little nephew still have military affairs, and I don't dare to leave my post without permission." ”

Chen Shengzhi was not reluctant, he returned to Qincha's line, and in the evening, the other two also came back one after another. When he told what he had seen and heard, it was obvious that he did not advocate the use of troops.

Although Gao Zunyu was unwilling, the situation he got was similar, but it was the eunuch Tan Xian, he smiled, "Two, Wang Xianggong is indeed not deceiving, and at the moment, he can only dispatch 50,000 troops at most!" But this war is about wisdom and strategy, and you can't just count the troops! ”

"What, Grandpa Tan has a clever plan?"

"Miao Ce doesn't dare to say, our family has just received a secret report, and there are generals from Western Xia who are ready to take refuge in the Great Song Dynasty and fight back! You say, if there is an internal response, the odds will increase by a few points? Tan Xian showed a villainous smile.
