Chapter 163: Baptism (1)

When he set off with Wu Shaogang, Hao Jing was still a little ignorant, the last conversation hit him too hard, although half a month had passed, he still hadn't been able to wake up completely, there were too many questions to think about, and the decisions he needed to make were also very tricky. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The carriage was moving rapidly on the official road, Hao Jing couldn't feel the bumps, he was once again in confusion, he didn't make a clear statement, and he didn't know what this trip meant.

Unlike Hao Jing, Lu Xiufu's mood was relatively low, he also followed the army to go on the expedition, and many matters of the Luzhou Mansion were temporarily in charge of Wang Shisan, the commander of the Youyi Army belonging to the Hezhou Imperial Army stationed in the capital city, and it is said that he, the Sima, should be in charge of all the affairs of the government during the prefect's trip, but unfortunately after such a long time, there has been no chance.

Let a military general in the army be in charge of many matters of the government, which is not in harmony with the system, and it is unreasonable.

Lu Xiufu can feel Wu Shaogang's disappointment in him, but many of his inner understandings are fixed and cannot be changed in a short period of time, in Luzhou Mansion for such a long time, Lu Xiufu felt the difference, the officials at all levels of Tongchuan Mansion Road, it seems that the allegiance and fear are not the emperor and the imperial court, but Wu Shaogang, even the deputy envoy of Tongchuan Mansion Road Defense, Tongchuan Prefecture Governor Li Siqi, and the Hezhou Imperial Front Army are all in charge of Cai Siwei, this attitude is also this attitude.

This is a dangerous signal, and the deep meaning behind it is that Wu Shaogang is very likely to be independent of the imperial court, just like the Tang Dynasty's secessionist envoys.

However, the stability of Tongchuan Fu Road, so that Lu Xiufu can not put forward other opinions, you must know that Tongchuan Fu Road, which has encountered many wars, is already very withered, there must be a peaceful and stable environment, so that the people can live in peace, if it falls into a toss situation again, I am afraid that this place will never be stable, and it will become the most worrying place for the imperial court.

What is the purpose of this march, Lu Xiufu is not very clear, the officers and sergeants around him also do not know, but according to the requirements of the rapid march, along the way is not allowed to delay, and the time of the march is very peculiar, every day at the beginning of the march, set up camp at the end of the day, start the march again at the time of Shen, set up camp at the time of Hai, that is, a lot of time during the day, are resting.

The marching army was to take all official roads, not to enter any villages, towns and cities, and to camp on the spot, and not to harass the people.

The momentum of the army, giving Lu Xiufu a different feeling, when under the command of Li Tingzhi, he also saw the loyal and brave army stationed in Zhenzhou, which is also an army, the loyal and brave army gave Lu Xiufu the feeling, a little lifeless, did not show any vitality, just like these sergeants, when they are soldiers just to eat, if they encounter a big disaster, maybe they will disperse in a hurry, the sergeant thinks of saving his own life, but the sergeants in front of the Hezhou Imperial Army are completely different, They were silent, but there was a terrifying power in each sergeant, an aura of indomitable determination and undauntedness.

The imperial armies of Hezhou were far stronger than the loyal and brave armies of Zhenzhou.

This is a very direct feeling of Lu Xiufu.

The army in front of the Hezhou Imperial Palace is directly controlled by Wu Shaogang, and it is said that the way of training is also decided by Wu Shaogang, the training is very harsh, and there is almost no leisure time, it is said that the sergeants stationed outside the Luzhou capital city, regardless of the wind and rain, and regardless of the heat and winter, must implement high-intensity training every day, and listen to the training intensively before resting at night.

Wu Shaogang's sentence Lu Xiufu completely agrees with, that is, sweat more in peacetime and shed less blood in wartime.

Some time ago, Wu Shao just went to the capital, Lu Xiufu faintly heard about it, it seems that someone is calculating, but the specific situation is not clear, the affairs of the court and the central government are very complicated, and after Wu Shao just came to Tongchuan Fu Road, the first fire burned to the officials and public officials, and it is normal to cause a certain scale of backlash.

In terms of cleaning up the affairs of officials and public officials, Lu Xiufu's understanding has completely changed, he thinks that this move is very wise, at least the people's feelings about the government are different, no officials and public officials dare to openly bully the people, and the people's lives have been temporarily calm, and they can concentrate on spring plowing and production.

Although he is a jinshi in the palace examination, although he has read a lot of books, after getting along with Wu Shaogang for so long, Lu Xiufu found that there are still too many gaps in himself, and he can't be compared with Wu Shaogang, a person who was born as a military general.

Ideas change slowly, it can't be achieved overnight, and many realities force Lu Xiufu to think and make changes slowly.

Whether Wu Shaogang will be able to discover these changes, Lu Xiufu does not dare to guarantee.

On this march, Lu Xiufu undertook a very important task, that is, to take care of Hao Jing.

Hao Jing came to Luzhou Mansion, which made Lu Xiufu extremely surprised, and even felt incredible, he also clearly remembered that in the military camp outside Luzhou Mansion, before seeing Hao Jing, Wu Shaogang's expression was extremely serious, and warned him that he must not leak the news, otherwise he would never be polite.

After all, he is a scholar, after all, he thinks about many questions every day, and Lu Xiufu quickly understood Wu Shaogang's purpose.

Hao Jing is a Han man trusted by Kublai Khan, the Great Khan of Mongolia, and must be familiar with many situations in the Mongolian steppe, and can get Kublai Khan's trust, which shows that Hao Jing is a truly capable person.

If Wu Shaogang is really able to influence and recruit Hao Jing, his role will definitely be huge.

Lu Xiufu couldn't help but applaud Wu Shaogang's idea.

You must know that the terrain of Tongchuan Mansion Road is too special, it can be said that it is the first line of confrontation between the Song Dynasty and the Mongolian Kingdom, of course, the two Huai are also directly confrontation with the Mongolian Kingdom, but from the perspective of many years, the focus of the Mongol Tartar attack has always been in Sichuan, and the focus of the attack is Tongchuan Mansion, Luzhou Mansion and Hezhou and other places, so the pressure on Tongchuan Mansion Road is huge.

Tongchuan Mansion Road is located in a remote area, and it is quite difficult to learn more about many situations, and after Lu Xiufu came here, he had a real feeling, except for getting the news of the imperial court from the Di Bao, there is no other way.

Wu Shaogang, who is responsible for all matters of Tongchuan Fu Road, must understand many situations and make corresponding arrangements, so as to protect the stability of Tongchuan Fu Road.

Recruiting Hao Jing is one of the best ways.

Finally, it was time to set up camp.

Lu Xiufu rubbed his somewhat numb shoulders and walked into the tent that had been set up.

Hao Jing, who was expressionless, sat in the tent, still looking at Lu Xiufu who came in, and then lowered his head.

For many days in a row, it was like this, and there was no verbal intersection between Lu Xiufu and Hao Jing.

Lu Xiufu shook his head slightly, sighed softly, and turned around to leave the tent.

There was a special sergeant waiting outside the tent, but there was no need to worry about Hao Jing's excesses.

"Lord Lu, after marching for many days, there must be a big action, there is a reluctant request below, can you please tell Lord Lu where to fight."

"Mr. Hao, you finally spoke, I thought you wouldn't be able to speak, and the things you asked about were also things I wanted to know, so I had no way to tell you."

A hint of coldness flashed in Hao Jing's eyes, he looked at Lu Xiufu, and also nodded slightly.

"It seems that Lord Lu is not joking, an action that even Lord Lu doesn't know about must be a major action, this Lord Wu is really scheming...

Hao Jing's words made Lu Xiufu's anger faintly rise.

As soon as Hao Jing finished speaking, he opened his mouth unceremoniously.

"Mr. Hao doesn't know a lot of things, it's not surprising to make such a comment, I'm the Sima of the Luzhou Mansion, a civilian official, it's normal for me to not know about this military deployment, is it possible that Lord Wu still wants to discuss military deployment with me, besides, any military operation, the more secret it is, the higher the probability of its success, if everyone knows about it, then our opponent also knows."

Hao Jing looked at Lu Xiufu, and a smile unexpectedly appeared on his face.

"Lord Lu misunderstood, it's not that Lord Wu is slandering, Lord Wu's arrangement must have its own reasons, I just think that Lord Wu is so young and thinks about things carefully, it's not easy."

"Mr. Hao is right, just say that I am a palace test jinshi, and I am older than Lord Wu, but in front of Lord Wu, I am still ashamed of myself, just say that Lord Wu did two big things on Tongchuan Fu Road, completely stabilized the place, it is not simple."

"Lord Lu, can you tell me what two things are?"

"First, clean up the officials and public servants who bully the people in the Fuzhou County Yamen, and return the people to a peaceful environment, and second, attach importance to farming and personally go to the fields to cultivate, so that the Fuzhou County Yamen at all levels pay attention to the suffering of the people. . . ."

Before Lu Xiufu finished speaking, Hao Jing actually stood up.

Lu Xiufu looked at Hao Jing and was a little stunned.

Hao Jing pondered for a moment and slowly spoke.

"It's really not simple, Tongchuan Fu Road encountered war, all kinds of waste to be rebuilt, if you can't make the people stabilize, the rest of the things are impossible to talk about, Lord Wu can grasp the key, first let the people stabilize, and pay attention to agricultural production, this is to grasp the key point, in this way to govern Tongchuan Fu Road, why worry about the place can not be stable."

Lu Xiufu looked at Hao Jing and once again showed a look of surprise.

"Mr. Hao is right, Lord Wu's measures, I didn't understand at first, this matter of cleaning up officials and public servants, there is no precedent for the imperial court, this attaches importance to farming, the people will naturally farm, but in the autumn harvest season, I finally understand Lord Wu's good intentions."

Hao Jing did not answer, but rarely fell into contemplation. (To be continued.) )
