Chapter 796: Shangshu Attacked (Medium)
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
After silently stationed in the military headquarters, he announced that he would talk to officials above Langzhong respectively, which was also the due intention to stabilize people's minds and eliminate rumors.
He first summoned the two chamberlains and conveyed to them the spirit of the cabinet meeting. He also told the two that the cabinet did not believe that the attack on the military department was not just an accident; On the contrary, the cabinet believes that it reflects the serious problems of the entire military system of the Ming Dynasty.
"I don't know how you two feel that you don't even have the slightest authority to protect yourself from being violated." The silent face, without a trace of a smile, has a serious expression, which is completely different from usual.
Wang Chonggu and Huo Ji were speechless, some things could only be understood but not spoken, so they could only pretend to be deaf and dumb.
"Okay, it's a lot of space to ask." Shen Mo smiled faintly and said, "Okay, let me ask a little more specific...... Why do you think Wang Butang suffered this fate? β
"The ministers are eager to make some achievements, and some of the policies they implement will inevitably be manipulated, which will cause dissatisfaction among some soldiers." Now the two of them can no longer shirk, Wang Chonggu said: "He doesn't understand the rude and irritable temper of the martial artists, and he always confronts them, which provokes them to be beastly, which leads to this catastrophe." β
"Why did you annoy the warriors?" Shen Mo asked.
"In the end, it's the Lord of the Ministry who has touched the jobs of many people." Huo Ji replied: "Although the situation in the Beijing camp is stronger than that of most of the guards, there are also a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people who eat together. β
"Well, even if these people hate him to the core," Shen Mo asked coldly, "Then why didn't the other officers and soldiers in the battalion come to the rescue?" β
"They may be hindered by their comrades, and they are world soldiers, and most of them are related to each other," Huo Ji said: "Maybe they don't want to hurt their feelings." β
"I'm afraid of hurting my feelings...... "Shen Mo nodded, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said: "But you're not afraid that if you break the Minister of Rong, everyone will be disposed of together?" It seems that the officers and men of our Beijing battalion are really righteous and cloudy. β
"This ......" Wang Chonggu and Huo Ji were speechless again.
"Or is it that they have no fear, and they know that if they fight, they will fight in vain," the silent gaze shot straight at the two of them like sharp swords, and the powerful aura actually overwhelmed the two squires who had commanded thousands of troops and horses, and they were suddenly breathless: "What do you want to hide, or are you colluding with them at all?" β
"I don't dare to ...... my humble duties" The two of them saw sweat on their foreheads and struggled.
"Don't you dare to say it, or don't you dare to do it?" Shen Mo asked.
"I don't dare to do it, I don't dare to say it." Huo Ji begged helplessly: "Shen Xiang, don't ask, there are some things we really can't say, it's useless to say them, and we will cause trouble for everyone." β
Wang Chonggu relied on his relationship with Shen Mo and said in a low voice: "Jiangnan, don't ask again, I'm about to force my brother to death......"
"The two of you seem to have a misunderstanding." Shen Mo laughed when he heard this, leaned forward, poured tea for the two of them, and said, "I think it's the cabinet making a big fuss." β
"Don't dare to ...... in your humble position" Although they said so, the expressions of the two of them were deeply convinced.
"That's great," Shen Mo nodded, "I'm really not here to shake my might, on the contrary, I'm here to save you." β
"Save us?" Wang Chonggu and Huo Ji looked at each other, and the latter sneered: "This is a long hand and short sleeves, so you can't talk about it at all, right?" β
stared at the two of them silently for a while, and finally smiled: "It seems that I misunderstood the two of you." β
"Hehe...... the two smiled a little reluctantly, and said, "It is also Shen Xiang's responsibility." β
"Hmm," Shen Mo nodded, "The pressure of Bugu is also very high, and I am inevitably a little nervous." Then he brought tea and sent the guest away: "I won't delay the time of the two of you." β
"Where, where." The two of them were like amnesty, although this conversation did not touch anything substantial, but the silent and oppressive momentum, and the seeming see-through of the sky, made the two of them panic, and they did not want to stay in front of him for a moment. So he got up and said, "I'll retire." β
Shen Mo nodded, and did not mean to get up to send it off.
Wang Chonggu walked halfway, and felt that he seemed a little faceless when he went out like this, so he turned around and said: "I wanted to invite Jiangnan to dinner, but these few days are really inappropriate, let's get together again when this matter is over." β
"It won't be long," Shen Mo nodded and said, "Brother Jianchuan will come to me." β
"Of course." Wang Chonggu responded casually, but after going out, he felt that Shen Mo's words seemed a little awkward, but he was not so sure, so he had to shake his head and smile bitterly: "People are under the eaves, they can only lower their heads......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are a total of four Qing Officials Division of the Military Department, namely the Military Selection Division, the Staff Division, the Vehicle Driving Division, and the Arsenal Division; Among the seven Lang, there are two in each of the first three divisions and one in the Arsenal Division, and these seven people are in charge of the four functional organs of the headquarters and maintain the normal operation of the headquarters. In the following time, Shen Mo had a confidential meeting with the Lang Zhong of the military department, and they were all tireless one-on-one, and it seemed that he was more attentive to these people than to the two waiters.
"In fact, the so-called Jingying Forbidden Army has been a corrupt system for a long time, from the lower to the upper level, it is a layer of exploitation." Conversation. There was an amazing man in his words: "The 100,000 officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp, except for the Shenji battalion, have an annual military expenditure of 2 million taels of silver...... There are more than a dozen methods in various ways, and at most more than one million taels of silver can be set up, and anyone who handles it can naturally eat fat, who cares about the soldiers' hunger and cold, and who cares about the army's lack of combat power."
Shen Mo did not sit behind the big case, but sat on a row of rosewood chairs with Na Langzhong, and while pouring him tea, he listened to him and said angrily: "But the big heads don't have the turn of the officers, they have to pay tribute to those noble families with the proceeds of exploitation." β
"The ...... of the noble family" silently read these words.
"Yes, although since the change of the civil fort, the nobles and warriors of this dynasty will be swept away. Now their descendants are no longer able to draw their bows and get on their horses, but the officers of the Beijing camp have always looked down on their horses. Na Lang Zhong and Shen Mo spoke in a tone that was more familiar than that of the two squires, and said, "The officers paid tribute to the noble family and supported their status, while the noble family provided protection to the officers and helped them with their promotion...... But those grandfathers and princes can't interfere in the government, so they can only take the curve to save the country. β
"Bribes." Shen Mo poured him tea and said lightly.
"Yes, the filial piety they will get has already been bought off by the military department, and even Kedao has been fed by them...... I heard that sometimes academics also take bribes. The man's heart was outspoken, and he had reached the point of unscrupulousness.
"Not everyone loves money." Shen Mo said softly.
"That is, most of the ministers are relatively clear, and the most important thing that Shanxi people lack is money, and they can't talk about bribes. Those princes and princes of the country worshipped their sons and squires with scholars, married each other, and tried their best to build relationships. even degraded to nobility, and called Lang Zhong a brother and brother in the key departments of military selection, arsenal, and car driving. After so many years of operation, Xungui and the military department have long been in collusion, and they can't figure it out. Na Langzhong revealed the mystery and said: "So Wang Xuefu and Huo Yaofeng can't answer you, how to answer?" Pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and you have to wrap yourself in it. β
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After saying this for so long, Na Langzhong felt his throat dry, so he picked up the tea cup and sipped it gently.
Shen Mo tilted his head to look at him, and said with a relaxed smile on his face: "You have been here for seven years combined, right?" β
"Seven years and seven months." The man nodded, recalled the past, and said: "After the hall was disbanded, I was here, first serving as the director of the Fang Division, and then going to Xuanda as a senator for three years, and when I came back to the Wuxuan Division, it has been more than three years. Saying that, he looked at Shen Mo and said, "Speaking of which, among the few of us, I am lagging behind." β
"Do you know what it means for the latecomer to prevail?" Shen Mo smiled and sat up straight and said, "This time I asked you to surpass them once." β
"Why, I've said so much, are you still sure?" He obviously knew what Shen Mo was going to do, because his name was Wu Dui Wu Junze, Shen Mo's classmate and friend of the same year, and one of the founders of the Qionglin Society. He is 40 years old this year, which is the best time in a man's life, and the tempering of life in the border passes and the training of the military department have made him no longer the youthful frivolity of directing the country and inspiring words, but showing a mature bearing that is as steady as a mountain and resolute as a knife -- but the heart that longs to make meritorious contributions has not changed in the slightest, but has become more and more intense with the passage of time.
"Who can be sure?" Shen Mo shook his head and said, "It's just that this opportunity is rare, just make a move when it's time to make a move." β
"Where will the next wind blow?" Wu Dui was in the ministry, and he was not as prescient as Shen Mo was in the cabinet.
"In the next few days," facing his brother, Shen Mo naturally did not need to hide: "The life of the Shanxi Gang will be very sad, and I am about to take this opportunity to take control of the military department." β
"It's not easy to get involved," Wu Dui frowned when he heard this: "Tangguan and Zuo Er are both from Shanxi, and most of the Lang Zhong and Wai Lang of the Wuxuan Division, the Wuku Division, and the Che Driving Division are also their people. β
"At least I still have you." Shen Mo laughed and said, "You are also a dignified martial artist."
"Lao Xi'er is xenophobic, how much power can I have?" Wu Dui smiled bitterly: "Although he is one of the martial arts selection slangs, the military attachΓ©'s grade, selection, promotion, and merit rewards are all under the control of another Shanxi person; I was only responsible for examining the dangers and important points in various places, and I was responsible for the establishment of the camp and the succession and gift of the military attachΓ© of the Tusi, and I had almost no power, and it was purely a miscellaneous job. β
"You can manage so much, just the same grade." Shen Mo said disapprenosingly: "After so many years in the ministry, you should also have some connections, right?" β
"The relationship is good," Wu Dui thought for a while and said: "Speaking of which, in fact, there is a disadvantage to the Shanxi people's group, that is, all the better positions are held by them, and other people in the ministry naturally have great opinions, although because the previous and subsequent court officials are all their people, everyone can only complain in private, but the grievances are actually not small." β
"You say, if the military department changes." When it came to business, Shen Mo returned to his usual demeanor and said, "How many people can you guarantee to do with you." β
"One Langzhong, three outsiders, and five principals......" Wu Dui calculated, and said a little discouraged: "Alas, what's the use of this person, as long as Yang Bo is still here, no one dares to do anything with him." β
"Yang Bo's life is not good," Shen Mo said lightly: "Gao Gong has already left, do you think those red-eyed officials can let him go, the initiator?" β
"Will he be gone, too?" Wu Dui was a little unconvinced: "He has a much deeper foundation than Gao Ge Lao, and his popularity is good, and he is still in the pavilion tide, regardless of his previous suspicions, he has protected Xu Ge Lao, and he should be able to withstand it this time." β
"Hahaha......" Shen Mo smiled and got up and said, "Brother Junze, do you know that Elder Xu Ge hates Yang Weiyue deeply. β
"Why hate him?" Wu Dui asked in surprise, he always thought that Xu Jie and the Jin Party were married, and the two sides joined hands to raise their heads: "Is it because of last year's court push, Yang Bo made Xu Ge old?" β
"That's nothing." Shen Mo said in a low voice: "The two sides have a grudge, or in this pavilion tide, Yang Weiyue, who is the fuse, is by no means as innocent as he seems. β
"How?"
"How can he, an old official who has become a fine official, a genius in the world admired by Yan Shifan, not a single Shanxi person in Jingcha, give someone a handle in vain?" Shen Mo said lightly: "Xu Ge Lao thought that he had made a stupid move at first, so he planned and burned the fire to Gao Gong, but as time went by, Xu Ge Lao found that Gao Gong was so important in the emperor's heart, so important that he wanted to protect him regardless of everything, which was much beyond Xu Ge Lao's expectations." β
"If the judgment is accurate, it is very likely that Elder Xu Ge will not make up his mind to deal with Gao Gong, and it is actually more beneficial for him to maintain the status quo." Shen Mo decomposed for Wu Dui: "But there is no regret medicine in the world, since he has completely turned his face with Gao Gong, there is no possibility of reconciliation, and Xu Ge Lao can only die." As a result, Xu Ge was still so powerful that he could only bow to the Holy Will, and finally forced Gao Gong to go into the wilderness. But killing a thousand enemies and self-inflicted eight hundred, in order to force back the high arch, Xu Jie did everything he could, exposing all the minions, even the emperor was offended, and the image of the court and the opposition was bound to be greatly affected, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he was scarred. β
"You said this fight was deliberately caused by Yang Bo?" Wu Dui said in disbelief.
"No one has any evidence, because Yang Bo really didn't do anything, he just showed a flaw." Shen Mo said lightly: "But it is obvious that he may get the greatest benefit, and the price he pays is just a few impeachments by the officials, and he has already found a scapegoat...... Yang Bo's discernment is clear, as usual, it is the first time that Lu Guangzu has been inspected, and he only further examines the results, so he will not pay attention to the origins of those officials who have been investigated, let alone care about which officials have not been investigated.
Judging from experience, with Yang Bo's status and scapegoat, he should not be hurt. Therefore, Xu Jie has reason to suspect that Yang Bo took the initiative to stick out his head and take the knife, and staged a bitter trick, the purpose of which was to cause disputes in the cabinet...... If the two power compete, both will inevitably lose, and the third party will inevitably benefit, that is, he Yang Bo. To put it bluntly, it is best for Xu Jie and Gao Gong to go home with their respective comrades, so that there is no need to work Yang Shao's spirit, and the two strong people in front of him will be done at once.
Whether this is the truth or not, no one can say, but Xu Jie has reason to doubt this, especially at the instigation of some people who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic...... And in this way, Yang Bo helped him speak regardless of his previous suspicions, and in Xu Jie's eyes, it became that he saw that Gao Gong's defeat was decided, and he turned around and scolded himself for fear of retaliation. I feel even more that this person is two-faced and three-stabbed, and he is sanctimonious on the surface, but in fact, he is a man and a prostitute.
Revenge is inevitable, although Xu Jie is unwilling to tear his face with Yang Bo again, he must give him an unforgettable lesson to punish him for repeatedly engaging in small actions...... Obedient and listening, Shen Mo had already heard the meaning of this from his speech at the cabinet meeting, so he came to the military department with great fanfare. It's not for anything else, it's just to show Xu Jie.
If Shen Mo takes action next, Xu Jie will definitely acquiesce, if he can take away the military department from the hands of the Shanxi people, I believe that Xu Ge Lao will be even more happy.
"Even if you want to show Yang Bo some color," Wu Dui frowned, "But I think the intensity is limited, right?" Launching two political struggles in a row, Xu Ge Lao would not be so unwise. β
"Hehe......" Shen Mo stood up, patted Wu Dui's shoulder, and said softly: "First, the officials have already killed the red eyes, and Xu Ge Lao can't control them; Second, although everyone in the world thinks that all the current Yanguan are surnamed Xu," he said with a slight smile and said: "But in fact, this is not the case, there are still a few who fish in troubled waters." β
"It's good to say that you want to fish in troubled waters." Wu Dui finally understood, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you have this kind of idea. β
"No way, no way." Facing his brother, Shen Mo was also very relaxed, shook his head and smiled: "Whoever makes us can't afford to mess with any of us, so we can only borrow some east wind and follow suit." β
"Interesting," Hearing the silent plan, Wu Dui rubbed his hands and said: "It's interesting to take millet from the fire, I haven't seen you move in the past few years, and I thought you were rusty." β
"Just wait for the right time." Shen Mo exhaled lightly and said: "Brother, this is a complete plan, once it starts, it will be one link after another, as long as it goes smoothly, I believe that it can fulfill everyone's border defense dream, and it can also allow me to survive this period ......of shock," he said and held Wu Dui's hand tightly and said: "I can't tolerate a little difference."
Wu Dui held his hand and nodded heavily-
