Chapter 5: The Overseer Builds on the Team (4)
Gao Yunquan has never lost such a big person. Since he took over the position of the head of the Yanzhou Gao family, no matter what kind of ups and downs for more than ten years, he has never given up his reserve and pride. In this era of frequent wars, no matter who governs Yanzhou, they must treat him politely and politely to Yan'an County. When Zhou Mi was the envoy of the Zhangwu Army, he had the idea of his own family, and at that time, Zhou Mi had the support of the Later Jin Emperor Shi Chonggui, which can be described as a big tree with deep roots. However, even in the face of such a powerful enemy, he has never been afraid, contacting the clan, inciting the generals, and gradually hollowing out the well-thought-out corners with a lot of money. How deep the water in Yanzhou is, only people who live in Yanzhou know that a military general in a straight line like Zhou Mi does not understand what politics is at all, and does not understand what a game is.
As a result, Zhou Mi was ousted from power by the mutinous soldiers, and led a few cronies to stick to the eastern city, waiting for reinforcements from the Later Jin court. At this critical moment, Gao Yunquan decisively threw considerable negotiation conditions to Li Bin, the leader of the Yanzhou civil officials, and obtained Li Bin's neutrality and wait-and-see at the critical moment, and finally passed the most difficult period, dragging things to the south of the Khitan and the collapse of the Shizhonggui regime in the Later Jin Dynasty. After Hedong Liu Zhiyuan entered the Central Plains, Gao Yunquan congratulated him for the first time, and without the backstage and the army, he could only flee from Yanzhou in a dark night, and since then, the Gao family has become the rightful ruler of the land of Yanzhou.
In the whole process of struggle, Gao Yunquan handled things with sophistication and calmness, and the ease of twisting and turning between the bottles and the bottles has always been praised by the nobles of Yanzhou.
However, this unstoppable strategy and this calm demeanor have now been shattered by an incredible accident. Gao Yunquan could never have imagined how a squad of only fifty soldiers could control a city guarded by nearly a thousand soldiers overnight.
The red-eyed soldier of Team C rushed into his bedroom covered in blood, the wooden spear and long knife in his hand shining blinding in the light, and as a seasoned old man, Gao Yunquan felt an uncontrollable fear for the first time. The fear was not complicated at all, it was a physiological instinct to the imminent threat of death.
At that time, Gao Yunquan was always desperately trying to control the strong urge to urinate that suddenly surged up from the middle and lower parts of his body, and he endured it strongly, even if he lost his life, he couldn't lose the dignity and face of his own princes in front of this group of barbaric rough people. The ancestors of the Gao family blessed him, and he did not lose face on the spot. The soldiers didn't really hurt him either—carrying him by the collar and carrying him out of his pajamas to walk around the cold and snow.
That was the first time he had met the young team officer who his son had contemptuously called "the puffy man surnamed Li", and he did not expect that his first meeting with this military attache from the ninth rank would be in such a situation. At that time, he was almost frozen, and he didn't even bother to look at what this person looked like. When he recovered, he vaguely seemed to remember that this person didn't seem to be tall, and as for the rest, he didn't remember anything.
When I saw this person again, it was already noon on the 22nd day of the first month of Guangshun, and tomorrow was Xiao Nian, and Gao Yunquan, who had always been vague about his life, was extremely sober this time. He instinctively sensed that the young officer didn't seem to want to hurt him, and he realized that this man would come to him one day for negotiations, and he believed that he was capable of reaching a compromise with this man again. Of course, that doesn't mean he'll forget the insult and pain of this time, and one day, when he's ready, he'll make these barbaric and unreasonable guys pay in blood......
He was waiting, waiting patiently, he knew that he at least had the identity of a knotted envoy and the two titles of the Taishi of the Servant Inspector as the capital and weight of the negotiation, so he had been waiting, gritting his teeth and waiting, as an old man, he knew that patience was the best weapon to defeat the opponent.
I waited for four whole days.
Ko Yunquan admitted that he was going crazy, and in the past four days, he has more than once slapped the case and scolded the soldiers in charge of guarding him, and also fought against hunger strikes. But the result was very little, from the eyes of the two soldiers, he saw disgust and hatred, from their cold words and blunt movements he knew that these people did not understand the meaning of their identity at all, and if no one restrained them, they would not hesitate to understand their own lives.
Ko Yunquan was not an impatient person, and the reason why he hoped that the rebellious officer would negotiate with him as soon as possible was because he was really worried about his son. He knew that Gao Shaoji did not have the protection of the identity and title of the servant, he was the initiator of the whole thing, and he was the enemy of the officer, and if the officer wanted to kill Gao Shaoji, he would not have any hesitation or concern.
He didn't know that in the past four days, Li* had been really busy......
In the past four days, what Li *, the deputy lieutenant of Jiupin Rong, did was actually the envoy of the Zhangwu Army and the assassination of Yanzhou.
In addition to a large amount of considerable wealth, there were also hoarded grain and silk, as well as a large number of sophisticated equipment and weapons.
After cleaning up, a total of three pairs of Mingguang armor, four pairs of Shanwen armor, 432 pairs of infantry armor, 88 pairs of cavalry armor, 321 high-grade wooden guns, 105 lacquer guns, 62 thick-backed long knives, 56 pairs of longbows, 17 pairs of horn bows, 4 Fuyuan crossbows, 8 Zhang crossbows, 14 horn bow crossbows, 2 wooden crossbows, and one large wooden crossbow. Approximately seventy bundles of various arrows were also recovered.
These treasures were sent by Li * to be closely guarded and sent back to the military fortress of Team C on Crouching Tiger Mountain, and these sharp weapons were priceless to the soldiers of Team C who were poorly equipped and could only poke and stab with wooden sticks. Li * couldn't imagine how long these 50 men under his command would have been able to hold out if all these sophisticated equipment had been in the hands of the soldiers in the city on the day of the incident. Gao Yunquan hid these treasures in the treasury and slowly rusted, but he was unwilling to take them out to equip the soldiers who defended Yanzhou, which made Li * puzzled.
On the one hand, Li * transported the equipment back to the mountains in batches, and on the other hand, he transported some of the grain stored in the warehouses back to the mountains for storage, and took out some of the grain to be released in the eastern and western cities for relief.
The heavy snowfall a dozen days ago crushed many houses in and around Yanzhou, leaving a large number of indigenous people homeless, who roamed the streets every day, waiting for the tragic fate of being frozen and starved to death. With Qin Gu's cooperation, Li set up 10 porridge sheds inside and outside the two cities, and used the grain from the barns to help the victims. Of course, Li * did not do good deeds without leaving a name for Gao Fengliangjie, and the victims who were given alms were all told that this was the good governance of Lord Li *, the deputy lieutenant of Yanzhou, who is now temporarily handling the affairs of Yanzhou.
With the dispersion of refugees, this news quickly spread to the surrounding villages, towns, counties and townships, and the reputation of Master Li's Wanjia Buddha and Gao Jiedu's stingy face spread among the most grassroots people in Yanzhou......
Another important decision made by Li * was to gather the officers and soldiers of the Zhangwu Army together, and uniformly give everyone half a year's additional salary, those who took the useless silk silk and threw it away were distributed to the whole army as a special benefit, and all the military camps in the east and west cities of Yanzhou were jubilant and lively as the New Year in advance, and those senior officers looked at the smiles of their heartless soldiers running back and forth with gloomy faces, and listened to the heartfelt "blessing of the head of the Li team". It's even more unpleasant in my heart.
All these things that are generous to others to gain a good reputation, Li * can't wait to do as much as possible, so he doesn't care about the expenses of the Yanzhou shogunate next year and the future food and salary of the Zhangwu army, at that time, he Li * has already patted his ass and went back to the mountain, these troubles will be left to Gao Shizhong and Gao Yanei These big people to solve, Li Ye is neither a festival envoy nor a assassin, just a small officer of the C team, so he doesn't care about these bad things.
For Li *'s behavior, Qin Gu was angry and funny, but he did not dissuade Li *'s nonsense. On the one hand, he understands Li*'s mentality of doing this, and if he doesn't make enough trouble for the Gao family's father and son, he can't get rid of this evil breath in his heart; On the other hand, these things that Li * did were originally what a responsible Yanzhou government should do, no matter how you think about it, seeing the victims starve to death and not giving relief is an extremely inhumane act, although Li * is messing around, and he is shameless in inviting names, but after all, he is relying on real acts of kindness to invite fame, and the big families do not think of him, on the contrary, these local scholars watched the farce in the city with extreme disgust, afraid of the spears and knives of the soldiers, no one dared to criticize anything, but Qin Gu understood, These people are patient, and they wish that Lee* would get out sooner.
When the entire treasury was finally emptied, Li * slowly came to Gao Yunquan's study to have a final face-to-face negotiation with the envoy of the Zhangwu Army.
Looking at the young officer sitting opposite him, Gao Yunquan's pupils contracted, he didn't expect that this guy who was described as the Killer Demon King was so young.
"How comfortable have the Lord of Yanzhou been doing these days?" Gao Yunquan sneered coldly.
The scholars and the old men of the military will not accept such an unreliable guy who can do nothing but kill people to govern Yanzhou, and the subordinates of Yanzhou Jiedu Mansion will not cooperate with him, if he thinks that with a few soldiers, he can officially take over the military and political sides of Yanzhou, which he has run for many years, this young man is too naïve.
He can't play it, Gao Yunquan has this confidence.
Not just anyone in the world is qualified to be a feudal envoy.
Sure enough, Li* shook his head tiredly: "Tired, tired to death-"
Gao Yunquan sneered: "When you kicked my old man away that day, did you think it was easy to sit up in this seat?" ”
Li * was stunned, he scratched his head and asked, "Waiter, your old man Mingjian, when did you kick your old man away?" It was Gao Yanei who called me here, and then he used knives and guns to toss around, and as a result, there was a mutiny, and even your old man almost froze. Such unscrupulous descendants are simply scum in the Gao family, and with such a good person in the clan, the Gao family will be wiped out sooner or later. I really want to go down with a knife and remove this scourge in my servant......"
Gao Yunquan's heart tightened, but he smiled mockingly: "You don't have to be crazy to threaten me, what conditions are there, just say it!" ”
Li* looked at him and sighed: "Gao Shizhong, if you restrain your precious son and don't let him come nonsense, why is this?" ”
He straightened his expression and said: "That day, Commander Zhao led his troops to rebel and attacked our team's camp, but our team rose up to quell the rebellion and was wiped out with one drum. Therefore, now the establishment of the front battalion of the Zhangwu Army is vacant......"
He stared into Gao Yunquan's eyes and said, "I want this formation-"
Gao Yunquan frowned, he didn't know about Zhao Yu yet, more than a hundred people were "wiped out" by fifty people, and this result surprised him again.
However, he quickly reacted and smiled: "Is the commander of the front battalion?" It's as simple as that? Now that you have the upper hand, you have to be the deputy commander or even the commander, and my old man has to think about it......"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Li*'s mouth: "Waiter, listen up, old man, I don't want to be the commander of the front battalion, I want the formation of the front battalion-"
Gao Yunquan frowned: "Is there any difference?" ”
Li * smiled: "One Xuanjie lieutenant, one Xuanjie lieutenant, two imperial lieutenants, two imperial lieutenants, five Renyong lieutenants, five accompanying lieutenants, a total of sixteen edicts, plus a command appointment notice, five team leader appointment notices, this is the establishment of a front battalion, Shizhong, did you understand this time?" ”
Gao Yunquan immediately rolled his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were raised: "You kill my old man......"
Li laughed: "Waiter, what did I do to kill you, and you are not the one who should be killed-"
After that, he sneered and stared at the old guy and said slowly: "-The person who should be killed is your eldest young master in Yanei......"
Seeing that Gao Yunquan closed his eyes and was silent, Li * seemed to suddenly remember something, and said with a smile: "I forgot to report to your old man, Li Guan is coming back soon, I heard that Zhi Shizhong is also coming with him, and they will arrive in Yanzhou tomorrow, Zhi Shizhong came this time, it is said that he was ordered by the imperial court, and he should pay a careful visit to see if Yanzhou has enough strength to resist the southward movement of the Dingyan army, if Yanzhou is unstable, the imperial court is afraid that it will send a soldier to help defend ......"
Gao Yunquan still closed his eyes and said coldly: "You came from Ruan, and you were the first to die!" ”
Li * smiled: "I don't know if I want to go up to my little Woniu Mountain at the moment, but as long as his old man enters Yanzhou City, I'm afraid that Yanzhou will have nothing to do with the Gao family in the future......"
Gao Yunquan slowly opened his eyes, and said indifferently: "It's not that I don't want to cooperate with you, your conditions are too unbelievable, and a command under his jurisdiction can't even ask for so many formations." Besides, I don't have so many officers in my hands to give and accept, one Xuanjie lieutenant, five accompanying lieutenants, at most that's the case, and if there are more, you must report to the imperial military department for approval, I'm afraid you can't wait, right? ”
Li * waved his hand: "Gao Shizhong, your old man seems to be really old, and his brain is not good, let me help you think about it." In February of this year, Li Guanjun invited 36 copies of the edict to the officers below the rank of lieutenant for Zhangwu's army, and you gave Li Guanguan six copies, one of which Li Guanguan gave to the lowly post. Since February of this year, your old man has not appointed a new officer, so your old man should still have thirty letters of confession, and I only need sixteen, which is already very kind......"
Gao Yunquan's face immediately turned pale, and he barely kept a smile and asked, "Since you already know everything, you don't care what I want, just take it yourself." ”
Li * shook his head slowly: "Gao Shizhong, I can see that you are always a smart person, different from your stupid son. I'll tell you straight. In order to ensure that your old man will not settle accounts after the fall, every document in this must be signed by your old man, and at the same time, I also need you to send a notice to explain the mutiny to all the soldiers and civilians in Yanzhou......"
Seeing that Gao Yunquan was puzzled, Li * said softly: "This incident is because Gao Ya did not investigate the employment of people, and mistakenly believed the words of the bandit Zhao Yu, but Zhao Yu suddenly launched a mutiny, and Wanli Shu in Yanzhou City will be ruined, your old man is wise and decisive, and decisively ordered to accompany Rong Deputy Lieutenant Li * to lead his troops to capture the traitor, after a battle, the traitor was completely annihilated, and your old man then ordered me to take over the post of commander of Zhao Yu's front battalion." This proclamation is not only written by your own hands, but also copied ten copies by your own hands and pasted in the two cities and nine counties of Yanzhou, only in this way can I trust that you will not settle accounts after the autumn......"
Gao Yunquan gritted his teeth with all his might, and kept admonishing himself in his heart to be calm, not to be impatient, it was a matter of his son's life, and he had to endure the anger of the moment, not to be rash and impulsive.
He asked slowly: "Then do you want to remove that fool from his post and appoint another commander of the Yanei?" ”
Li* smiled: "I'll just say you're a smart person......
"So, at such a great price, what is left of the flesh and skin on my old man's body?"
Li * said innocently: "Of course there is a surplus, you are still the envoy of the Zhangwu Army......"
