Chapter 236: Guangxi Affair [I]
Chapter 236 Guangxi Affairs [I]
I saw a crowd of people in the White Tiger Hall, and hundreds of civil and military officials gathered together.
Zhao Yu naturally sat in the first place, glanced at everyone present, and said, "Although this king saw you when he entered the city, you also knew the situation at that time. Cao Gong was homesick, so many introductions were rushed. Here I will trouble Feng Tong to introduce one or two to this king! ”
Feng Shenji, the counselor of the pacification envoy and the general judge of Guizhou, has lived in the southwest for a long time, although he has served as an official in Jiangling, but he has not been familiar with most of the officials for a long time, and it is also a good choice for him to introduce him.
"Lord Wang, this is the deputy envoy of the transfer and the supervisor of the capital of Guangnan West Road, Wang Ranbo!"
"This is ......"
In Feng Shenji's introduction, Zhao Yu had already roughly learned about a situation on Guangnan West Road. Lack of officials!
Maybe someone here is strange, lack of officials? Isn't the "problem" of redundant officials in the Song Renzong era already very serious? Truly! However, Quang Nam West Road is located in Lingnan, and the place is hot, and for northerners, they don't know if they can come back. Of course, you can also promote the locals, and the problem is currently in the two major ways of public service, the shade supplement and the imperial examination have little to do with the Lingnan people.
Yin Bu has to rely on the ancestors, and in terms of military generals, it was the northerners who fought the world with Song Taizu at the beginning. The civil officials were mainly northerners at the beginning, and there were few Lingnan people who became the **, so it was naturally difficult for the descendants to fill this big hole. The imperial examination, at this time, still occupied the main force in the imperial examination, but it was not as good as the later Ming and Qing dynasties, and it was necessary to limit the north to four and the south six, so that almost all the southern scholars would not be selected.
The most important thing is that the scholars in the Song Dynasty were not just assigned to you to be an official, you got to be an official there. Instead, you choose three places to come out first, and you choose to go there. Dislike? Okay, choose again next year, you can choose three years. Now that you can choose. Although it will delay some time, in the eyes of the scholar, it is better than going to Lingnan to suffer.
Therefore, many officials on Guangnan West Road are holding multiple positions, which is also a helpless move by the imperial court for the officialdom characteristics of Guangnan West Road.
Regarding this problem, although Zhao Yu noticed it and was ready to solve it, he did not show his intention in this regard. Instead, he asked, "How is the war going now?" ”
Zhao Yu asked the former governor of Guangnan West Road, and the current Guangnan West Road soldiers and horses to govern Ma Yu, who defeated An Huaman and wanted to slaughter his clan. However, Cao Keming was stopped, and there was today's Anhua Manchu Ten States Rebellion.
Although Ma Yu tried his best to make his face look very rigid and serious, he still showed a little bitterness, and said: "Before the defeat of Rongxi, the soldiers and horses of Guangnan West Road were greatly damaged, and now there are not many troops stationed in Yizhou, Rongzhou and other places on the front line, and there are about 1,000 soldiers in Yizhou, which are divided into three places: Rongshui County, Luo Castle, and Wangkou Village, and they are fighting each other. ”
As soon as Ma Yu's words fell, Zhao Yu's brows were already furrowed. "Wait! Tiha said that there are only about 1,000 people in Rongzhou? There are only 1,000 soldiers and horses in a huge Rongzhou? Forbidden Army? Vanguard? ”
Before Ma Yu could speak, someone had already said in a weird way: "The prince has lived in the north for a long time, and he knows that those of us who guard the southern Xinjiang are working hard!" 1,000 people, and they still say that the forbidden army and the box soldiers! Do you know how many troops are stationed in a huge south? One hundred and ninety-five battalions of soldiers and horses! ”
"Presumptuous!" Feng Shenji now regarded Zhao Yu as his big backer in his career, and there was room for a low-level official to sarcastically mock his benefactor, and immediately stood up and reprimanded.
Zhao Yu raised his hand and made a stop gesture, looking at the official, his face was very flat, there was no anger or appreciation. "What's your name? What is the official position? ”
Although the officials in the White Tiger Hall have introduced themselves, but there are twenty or thirty people in the White Tiger Hall, and the introduction time is short, Zhao Yu really can't remember so much.
"In the first year of Tiansheng, he was born with Jinshi, and Yizhou promoted the official Zhanguanping!" Zhan Guanping looked at Zhao Yu with an indignant face.
Zhao Yu smiled and didn't speak, some of which understood why the other party dared to choke himself. Jinshi was born, that is, a scholar. Zhao Yu couldn't kill him, but could only belittle him...... The problem is that he has been appointed as an official on Guangnan West Road, to put it mildly, even if he is degraded, can he still be sent there? As for promotion, from the first year of Tiansheng to the present, it has been twenty years younger, but he is still in front of a pusher, either suppressed by the ministers, or made some big mistakes, it can be said that there is no hope of promotion.
As the so-called desireless is rigid, this Zhanguanping is really not scared of Zhao Yu.
"The negative dog barks far away!" Zhao Yu turned his head away disdainfully and said coldly.
Zhanguanping was furious, and what else did he want to say, but Zhao Yu had already looked at him with cold eyes, and said: "The king doesn't dare to kill people, but there are so many barren mountains and mountains on Guangnan West Road, and it is normal for half of an official to be missing!" ”
Zhanguanping couldn't help but shudder when he heard this, and didn't dare to say more.
Zhao Yu's hand has suppressed many officials on Guangnan West Road. They found that this king of Changsha was not the kind of gentleman who was born noble and had low eyes.
Not to mention anything else, at least in terms of decisiveness in killing, it is very set.
Although Zhao Yu was domineering towards Zhanguanping, when he turned his face and faced Ma Yu, Zhao Yu naturally lowered his posture. Ma Yu is a capable person, and he is also a powerful figure in Guangnan West Road. "Matthiha, please tell me the details."
After a pause, Zhao Yu continued: "There are some things that I don't know if Matthi knows. Although this king was sent to Guangnan West Road to serve, he was guarding filial piety before he came, but it was because of the official family's affection that he was used in advance. Before leaving, in order to supplement the Empress Dowager Zhang Hui, the king specially held a grand sacrifice, which delayed a lot of time. In order to rush back the time that had been delayed before, this king had to rush all the way to eat and sleep in the open air, and he did not have time to get familiar with the situation on Guangnan West Road and even Lingnan. Some of the questions are very straightforward, or they may be ordinary, but I hope Matthias will answer them in detail! ”
Ma Yu is not the kind of official who does not know what to do and is resentful. After a few polite words, Ma Yu replied: "Lord Wang, because the northerners are not familiar with the south, there are not many troops stationed in the south, only one hundred and ninety-five battalions of soldiers and horses!" And the further south, the less soldiers and horses are stationed, and many of them are stationed in Sichuan. Our Guangnan West Road has a hot climate and a lot of miasma, so although it is located on the border, it is only stationed in the 27th battalion of forbidden troops. Moreover, they are not satisfied, with more than 300 people per battalion, and 150 or 60 people at the less. ”
Zhao Yu was taken aback and said, "The forbidden army is so corrupted? There are about 300 horses in the first battalion! The people who come to Guangnan West Road should be infantry soldiers, and the soldiers are so few! ”
PS: The number of words is less, there is a way, and the time is too tight.
At present, the actual owe: 4,000 words. In order to express Mumu's apology, two thousand words were added, for a total of six thousand words. Try to return it as soon as possible! (To be continued.) )
