Chapter 378: Taishi Ship
Originally, he thought that Su Wei was likely to have reached the limit, but he stayed in Wuyuan for three months, and Su Wei was fine, and because of Su Rui's company, the improvement was getting better and better, which made Su Chen puzzled.
The pharmacist told him that it was Chongxi who made the old man's body glow, and he could only think so, this time he stayed in Wuyuan for three months, and Su Chen couldn't stay forever, after discussing with his father, he left Wuyuan and went directly north, and entered Jizhou with a well.
Before leaving, he summoned Guo Huai to the banquet alone, and Queen Guo was also accompanied by him, during the banquet he said to Guo Huai: "Boji, I intend to use troops in Nanyang, after these years of naval construction and the development of Nanyang, a resolution has been formed on the use of troops in Nanyang, Jiaozhou is the bridgehead to the south, I intend to let you be the governor of Jiaozhou, to prepare for the south, what do you think?" ”
"Your Majesty has an order, and the minister will never give up!" For meritorious service, of course, Guo Huai yearns for it, although it is very comfortable to stay in Bingzhou, but there is no war in Bingzhou, and the Xiongnu Xianbei and other foreign races have long been beaten to the point of nowhere to be found, or attached, or far away, anyway, there are no large tribes in the north of Yanmen now, and some small tribes are also people who herd horses for Yanguo.
"Okay, since that's the case, you should prepare well, the documents of the Military Aircraft Department will be sent to the state in a short time, what do you think about the candidate for the governor of the state?"
"The minister doesn't dare to say anything!" Of course, Guo Huai knew that he must not interfere with the selection of this successor, otherwise the court should not worry about him.
Su Chen also nodded when he saw this, and thought about it, the candidate for the governor of the state is really not easy to decide, if it is looking for it from within the state, of course it can, but in this way, it is not in line with his original intention, and this kind of small group must be defeated, he transferred Guo Huai to the south, on the one hand, he needs him, and on the other hand, he also wants to suppress the state group.
Guan Yu has been in Bingzhou for many years, Guo Huai is Guan Yu's successor, it can be said that now the generals and officials of Bingzhou have a relationship with Guan Yu and Guo Huai, in this case, he must transfer an outsider to serve as the governor of Bingzhou in order to balance this local power.
After thinking about it, Su Chen felt that maybe he could transfer Ma Chao over, Ma Chao is a famous general in the world, and now he is the governor of Youzhou, as we all know, Youzhou is Su Chen's territory, no matter who is the governor of the capital, in fact, he is just a puppet, so Ma Chao has no development in Youzhou at all.
It is different to transfer Ma Chao to Bingzhou, so that the Ma family and the Guan family can form a balance, which is the best way for the imperial court.
"What does Boji think of Ma Chao, the Metropolitan Governor of Youzhou?"
Hearing Ma Chao's name, Guo Huai said with admiration: "Ma Mengqi is a famous general in the world, and the minister thinks it is very good." ”
"Okay, let Ma Chao take over from you as the governor of Bingzhou."
It didn't take long for the Military Aircraft Department to issue a document to Guo Huai, transferring Guo Huai to serve as the governor of Jiaozhou, and at the same time transferring Ma Chao to take over as the governor of Bingzhou, transferring Zhu Zhi to take over as the governor of Youzhou, and transferring Huang Zhong to take over as the governor of Yangzhou.
After Su Chen and Guo Huai talked for a while, they left, leaving the place for Guo Huai to talk to Queen Guo, after Su Chen left, Guo Huai asked: "Niangniang, Your Majesty asked Ma Chao to take over as the governor of Bingzhou, but ...... to General Guan."
"Shh Queen Guo stopped him from continuing, and said: "General Guo, although you and I are not of the same clan, but the Julu Guo family, the Taiyuan Guo family and the Yingchuan Guo family have also been friends with each other over the years, and there are some words that the palace needs to tell you a few words, the sky is mighty, the thunder and rain and dew are all the grace of the king, Your Majesty is the majesty of all the subjects in the world, Your Majesty let the general go south, it is to trust the general, and the general must not live up to Your Majesty's trust." ”
"Yes, yes!" Guo Huai hurriedly responded, and he also knew that he had just said the wrong thing.
"As for other things, you just need to know that Your Majesty doesn't like courtiers to form a party the most, no matter what, there is only one person you are loyal to, that is Your Majesty today, as long as you remember this sentence, the Taiyuan Guo family will not fade for a hundred years, and the palace will also benefit a lot because of the general."
"Thank you Niangniang for informing me, Weichen will not dare to forget Niangniang's grace today."
"Hmm!"
The two talked for a while, Guo Huai took his leave, out of the palace, Guo Huai found that his back was wet with sweat, back home, he savored Concubine Guo's words, and realized in his heart, it seems that His Majesty is a little dissatisfied with the matter of the state army.
Because of historical reasons, Bingzhou has always been governed by Gao Shun, and later Guan Yu served as the governor of the capital, and all the generals and colonels in the state army were promoted by Guan Yu, even he Guo Huai, in addition, there are Hao Zhao, Linghu Shao and so on.
In the past, the world fell apart, the Quartet was undecided, this situation was tolerable, but once the world was settled, and then it was so ironclad, it was a big taboo, these years he guarded and the state did have the intention to operate here into an iron plate, the needle could not be inserted, and the water could not be splashed, especially after Guan Yu was named the Duke of the Kingdom, Guan Ping was appointed as the governor of Jingzhou, which made Guo Huai firm up the idea of hugging the thigh of the Guan family, but now it seems that this is not a way to live.
"Anyway, how can I say that my Taiyuan Guo family is also a famous family in the world, a century-old family, why do you need to enjoy the shade under other people's big trees, this time going south, it is my Guo Huai's opportunity, and it is also my Guo family's opportunity."
Taiyuan Guo family, because he did not start with Su Chen at the beginning, did not follow the dragon's skills, and has gradually become a second-rate family over the years, so Guo Huai thought about hugging Guan Yu's thigh.
Su Chen didn't know these thoughts, he just knocked Guo Huai enough, after entering Jizhou, Su Chen didn't stay, and went directly to Zhuo County for the next stop, although Zhuo County today is not as prosperous as it was back then, it is also a rich state and county, and because of Yanjing Academy, the population of Zhuo County is not small.
There is Su Chen's palace mansion in Zhuo County, this is a ready-made palace, Su Rui is here for the first time, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Wow, grandpa, our family is so big." ’
"Of course, this is the Yanwang Mansion built by my grandfather back then, how about it, do you like it?"
"I like it!" Su Rui ran away without a sound as soon as he slipped away, after all, he was still a twelve-year-old child, in front of the ministers and scholars, he might have to pretend to be mature, but in front of his grandfather, he naturally didn't need it.
Su Chen thought that in the future, maybe he could give this palace to Rui'er last time, let him sit in the northern Xinjiang, in his vision, Yan State will establish three accompanying capitals, namely Xijing Chang'an, Bei, Jingzhuo County and South and Beijing Xiangyang, the emperor will go to these escort capitals every few years, and even let the prince stay in the accompanying capital after adulthood, so that they can learn the law of governing the country and learn to deal with government affairs.
Northern Xinjiang has been very calm over the years, speaking of which is the credit of Su Chen, Wuhuan has long been attached, accepted sinicization, and called himself Han, even the nominal leader of Wuhuan Nanlou is also an official in the imperial court, and the so-called Wuhuan is not obvious anymore.
Su Chen stayed in Zhuojun for a month, during which he went to Yanjing Academy to inspect, and now the president of Yanjing Academy is the great Confucian Guan Ning, Yanjing Academy and Lumen Academy, Yingchuan Academy and Taihang Academy are known as the four major academies of Yanguo, among all the academies, these four academies are the most famous.
Yingchuan Academy is because of Xun Yu and the rest of the Xun family's Confucianism, and there are Guo Jia, Xun and Chen Qun, so it has a great reputation, Lumen Academy is of course because of Sima Wei Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong, Yanjing Academy is the place where countless courtiers of Yan Kingdom study, so it is the most famous, as for Taihang Academy, it is thanks to Su Chen, Taihang Academy refers to the academy in Naturalization City, which is famous for its efforts to educate foreign races, and many foreign officials in the army and the court came out of there, Ranked last among the four colleges.
After leaving Zhuojun, Su Chen went directly to Liaodong to inspect the naval base, which had been established for more than 20 years, and this was the first time he had set foot on the land of Liaodong.
Tai Shi Ci learned that he came, directly came to the right Beiping to take over, he and Tai Shi Ci relationship is like a brother, although the founding of the country did not reward the title of the duke of other countries, but the navy this weapon of destruction into his hands, it is out of his trust.
The navy can be self-sufficient, and even has a lot of surpluses, if it is to be replaced by someone else, Su Chen is really not at ease, I don't know how much corruption will happen, but if it is handed over to Tai Shici, he is very relieved.
Tai Shi Ci's son Tai Shi Heng is now following Suning in the Western Regions to make a great name, has married a local woman as his wife, and has a son, Tai Shi Ci is now also a grandfather.
Tai Shi Ci and Su Chen haven't seen each other for many years, and when they see each other again, they didn't expect each other to be old, Tai Shi Ci choked up and bowed: "Meet the lord!" ”
"Ziyi hurry up, I haven't seen him for many years, Ziyi has added a lot of gray hair, and Ziyi has suffered all these years."
"Lord, Wechen is not bitter, the Lord handed over such a big burden to Wechen, it is a trust in Wechen, Wechen now has children and grandchildren, and there is no regret, but I haven't seen the Lord for many years, and I am very worried about it."
"Why not, let's go, let's go to your naval base to see your achievements over the years."
"My lord, please get in the car!"
"No, I'm not old enough to even get on a horse, so let's ride a horse today."
"Yes!"
Tai Shici escorted Su Chen to ride a horse first, as for Concubine Guo and the others, they could only follow slowly, to Su Chen's surprise, Su Rui also had to ride a horse, "Grandpa, Rui'er also has to ride a horse with grandpa." ”
"Okay, then let Grandpa take you for a ride!"
Everyone galloped wildly, and at the end of the day, Su Chen felt a little unbearable, whether he was young or not, but he still persevered, just slowed down.
A few days later, when he came to Xi'anping and saw the huge naval shipyard, Su Chen's face was very surprised, he didn't expect Tai Shici to make such a big battle.
"My lord, our largest sea ship can accommodate 5,000 soldiers, and we used this kind of sea ship in the previous battle against Dongying."
"What is the name of this sea vessel?"
"This is based on the evolution of the Fukufu, and we just call it the Fukufu."
"Fukufune? This name is not good, so it might as well be called Taishi Ship. ”
"Taishi ship? This...... Thank you, Lord! "It is conceivable that the name of Tai Shi Ci will definitely be left in the history of this Tai Shi ship.
