Chapter 247: The Official's Clever Calculation (Part II)
Pan Mei was puzzled, Wang Jixun watched the joke on the side, and then asked: "Old Pan, he is really the son of your subordinate Li De, your son-in-law, why is it not like it." ”
"Go, he's a civil servant, of course he has to do this."
Not only him, Wang Ming and Fan Yu collected all the books and classics, handed the map to Pan Mei, and sent the rest to the capital. Five dynasties were chaotic, and many classics in the Central Plains were burned together. Although the Southern Han Dynasty is not very good, there are still some of them, so that most of the classics can be found again and will not disappear. Seeing that Song Jiu was busy with a group of soldiers, they also rolled up their sleeves and joined.
In one day, the city of Fuzhou was almost completely renewed.
Then Song Jiu asked Pan Mei for a prisoner, it doesn't matter how you kill me during the war, but after the war, the prisoners of war are under my control. How Pan Mei fights, Song Jiu can't understand, how Song Jiu appeases the people, Pan Mei also doesn't understand. The son-in-law will give it if he wants. Song Jiu gathered the captives together with the people. After more than a day, the people were still in a fog and confused, but they were not as scared as they were at the beginning, and they gathered outside the city one by one. Song Jiu and Wang Ming glanced at each other, Wang Ming found a few readers, handed down the note in his hand, and asked them to read it in the crowd.
That is, the basic laws and taxes of the Song Dynasty, and it was these humane laws and taxes that were implemented in Fuzhou after Fuzhou. Song Jiu said that the tax was harsh, that was his opinion, compared to the harsh tax of the Southern Han Dynasty, the tax of the Song Dynasty was heaven!
Wang Ming said: "Since then, the stone has been used as a monument and erected at the gate of the city, and any official who dares to offend can report to the imperial court for disposal." ”
The people are still waiting.
Wang Ming said again: "Before Your Majesty left the army, he said a word, I will save the people on this side. The king is here, and he has come to your rescue. And the prisoners of war. The nearby military and civilians immediately went home and did not plan to be held accountable. If you are far away, please send someone to contact each other. Each of you will be given ten to twenty pounds of grain, so that you may return to your homeland. ”
Wang Jixun wanted to interject, but he couldn't let them go, and as soon as he let them go back, they became an army again, but when he spoke to his mouth, he suddenly stopped. Because Wang Ming finished speaking, the people and prisoners of war suddenly knelt down in groups, and some of them cried loudly.
In fact, nothing was actually done, so it was difficult for these prisoners of war to be killed one by one. Since Wang Quanbin's incident, whoever dares can only be imprisoned, and after being locked up, they will have to be fed, drunk and clothed. Then there is the construction of the house, which is not completely built, but mostly renovated.
Fan Yu said dumbfoundedly: "No wonder Bashu has set up a shrine...... Since then, there has been no rebellion in Fuzhou. ”
Not only did there be no rebellion, but then many people spontaneously transported grain and grass for the Song army. The soldiers are good, and the people are good. Everyone has become brothers, are you too embarrassed to do it? So after the Great War, Fuzhou became peaceful.
This time was not long, and the reinforcements arrived slightly. Some of the grain and grass were also brought over, and the army set off again. First of all, it was to grab Baixia Mountain, a highland in the southeast of Fuzhou City, and this speed was faster. Otherwise, Hezhou stationed a large army in Baixia Mountain, and it would definitely be a fierce battle.
A part of the Han army was released. Put it into account, they are defeated. There must always be a reason for defeat, and the Song army is said to be extremely fierce, everyone can go up Mount Everest, can go down to the Pacific Ocean, and is benevolent and righteous. There was no way to fight, so as soon as the Song army came, a few defenders on Baixia Mountain either fled or surrendered.
Chen Shouzhong, the assassin of Hezhou, saw that the Song army was wrong, you want to fight Zhaozhou or Guizhou, why did you aim at our Hezhou? I had to ask for help from the Southern Han. Liu Gang sent the chief manager Gong Chengshu to announce the pacification of Hezhou, and when he heard that the Taishi had arrived, the Han soldiers warmly welcomed him.
Lao Gong looked good, his morale was high, and he was available, so he read the holy decree. But after reading it, I found that it was wrong, the soldiers did not disperse together, Gong Chengshu said, what else do you have to do?
"Money, we are fighting hard with the Song army, don't we have some rewards from the imperial court?"
Old Gong was stunned.
The Southern Han Dynasty is not without money, on the contrary, it is very rich, since the end of the Tang Dynasty, although one is more than a bastard, but the Central Plains is also a bastard, so the country has been established for a long time, although several monarchs are very brutal, but there is a benefit, they attach importance to shipping, and Guangzhou City brings them a lot of wealth. It can be said that Liu Gang's hair is enough to send this group of soldiers away. But no, just a piece of paper. The soldiers watched the show and dispersed scolding, leaving only Lao Gong and Chen Shouzhong. Lao Gong is not stupid, and he knows that this kind of morale can't be beaten. Over there, the Song army was moving south, and the vanguard had arrived in Fanglin, especially the soldiers of the Song Dynasty who were doing renovation work while marching, building houses for the people along the road, and even sending some small gifts to the people, several generals and civil officials allocated some money to come out to help the widows and weak, so as soon as the Song army arrived in Fanglin, the people of Fanglin actually forgot that they were the people of the Southern Han Dynasty, and the old man knelt on the side of the road with tea and wine to greet the Song Dynasty army. The Song army came, and the people cheered on both sides of the road. When the hundreds of guards in Hong Lim saw that something was wrong, we cheered too, laid down our weapons and cheered together.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lao Gong said to Chen Shouzhong: "Chen Tingshi, you hold on for a while first, and the Sprinkle family will bring reinforcements for you, remember, don't go out of the city to fight, you will be defeated if you go out of the city." ”
He was still very clear-headed, and hurried back to Guangzhou.
The ministers discussed, and asked Pan Chongche to lead the troops to resist the Song division. He is the most capable veteran of the Southern Han Dynasty, after the civil strife in Ma Chu, the Southern Tang Dynasty general Bian Hao took the opportunity to send troops to occupy Hunan, and the Southern Han Dynasty was not far behind, taking advantage of the victory to capture Chenzhou. Bian Ho sent troops from Tanzhou to rescue because Pan Chongche set up an ambush in Yizhang and defeated the Southern Tang army. Liu Yan, Wang Kui, Zhou Xingfeng and others, the old generals of the Chu State, took the opportunity to capture Changsha and expelled the Tang army of Bian Hao. Wang Kui took advantage of the victory to attack the south, and it was Pan Chongche again, who attacked in columns, defeated Wang Kui's 50,000 soldiers and horses, and ambushed the corpse for 80 miles. Liu Gang succeeded to the throne and conferred Pan Chongche as the capital of the northwest. More than a year later, Liu Gang suspected that Pan Chongche had the intention to rebel and sent the eunuch Xue Zongyu to investigate. Because the bribe was unsuccessful, after Xue Chongyu came back, he said that Pan Chongche ignored military affairs, and just used more than 100 servants to wear splendid clothes and play the jade flute as a drink for the long night, which made Liu Chongche angry, recalled Pan Chongche, and seized his military handle.
But he is not the most far-sighted general, the most far-sighted is an inner servant Shao Yanjuan. Of course, most of the ministers of the Southern Han Dynasty were not chamberlains, but also chamberlains, and there was no such thing anyway. He asserted early on that the Song Dynasty would use troops against the Southern Han Dynasty, either learning from the Southern Tang Dynasty as soon as possible to pay tribute to the Song Dynasty, or starting to build the city wall from now on to train elite soldiers. Liu Gang silently did not answer. It was not until the Song army occupied Chenzhou that he let Shao Yanjuan be the envoy to the north. Repair the army and practice martial arts.
Pan Mei saw it in her eyes and didn't spend much money. Just a letter, a letter without any origin. The letter said that Shao Yanjuan rebelled, and Liu Gang killed this person.
The Northern Han Dynasty is also using counter-plots. Li Qianpu has been in Xizhou for ten years, and there is a general named Liu Jin under his command, who is brave and powerful, and the Northern Han Dynasty suffers from it, so he made a wax bullet and left it on the road, which was obtained by Zhao Zan and presented to Zhao Kuangyin. Li Qianpu vouched for a family of 40. Zhao Kuangyin realized and released Liu Jin. And some crushing rewards were given.
The two anti-intermediary schemes, the one of the Northern Han Dynasty was more clever, but it did not succeed, Pan Mei's counter-intermediary scheme was simply nonsense, but it succeeded.
As soon as Shao Yanjuan went and Pan Chongche went down, Wuling was no longer the Great Wall of the Southern Han Dynasty......
Liu Gang also thought of this person, and sent a eunuch to quickly deliver a decree and summon Pan Chongche. Pan Chongche quietly listened to the holy decree. He's the same as the GIs, so that's it? He was even more unconvinced, how much credit I made for the Southern Han Dynasty back then, not only let me go down. He also put a high hat on me, and now I think of me, and it's okay. At least give me some meaning. I'm not a dog or a cat...... He wouldn't shout out directly like a GI, and said lightly: "No." The old minister's eyes are not good, and he can't lead the troops. ”
If it's anyone else. At this time, you should be able to wake up and comfort a little, Pan Mei's soldiers and horses are actually not many, less than 20,000 people, most of them are still miscellaneous troops, you can do it in one go, once defeated, you will be defeated faster than anyone else.
Who knew that Liu Dao was furious and said: "Why do you have to be chongche, Wu Yanrou has no strategy!" ”
Wu Yanrou can actually compare with Pan Chongche, and sent Wu Yanrou to save Hezhou.
……
"Zhangren, why do you want to withdraw?" Song Jiu asked.
"Don't ask, boy, look at it," Pan Mei replied. He made the son-in-law miserable, saying that he had done a good job, and that all the prisoners of war had been released by him, and then, as they feared, he was organized by the Southern Han Dynasty again. said that he didn't do a good job, and even the soldiers seemed to have changed their appearance along the way. Even Pan Mei was worried that if this continued, her subordinates would be able to raise the butcher knives in their hands against the Southern Han soldiers.
The army retreated twenty miles in a row, and it was approaching dusk, so they hurriedly set up camp.
On the other side, Wu Yanrou's army arrived in Nanxiang, Hezhou, and heard that the Song army fled when they heard the news, and the troops did not seem to be many, so they were overjoyed, and did not let the soldiers get off the ship, but let them rest for a night, continue to set off tomorrow, and then go ashore to fight to the death with the Song army.
As night fell, Pan Mei ordered the three armies to rest.
Pan Mei shouted Song Jiu out of the tent, and when he arrived here, even though it was the end of September, the weather was still very warm, but it was also the best time to send troops, until next summer, it was not a very hot weather. As for the autumn miasma, the winter miasma and the spring miasma, Song Jiu has already explained. There are some serious places to avoid that is.
Pan Mei patted the grass and said, "Song Jiu, sit down, let's talk." ”
Song Jiu came to Hunan in front, and before the wine was drunk, the army set off, and arrived at the city of Hezhou in the blink of an eye. The two have not had a good talk. Pan Mei asked again: "What about them?" ”
"Father-in-law, look what you think. If you think that you have worked hard all your life and want your children to live a good life, they don't care in the capital, they are just gentlemen, and they don't do evil, they just enjoy life a little. Moreover, there are many people in the capital, and I have opened up overseas financial resources, which is enough to ensure that their generation and even their next generation have no worries about food and clothing. ”
"How many boats do you?"
"That's not a few ships, it's a golden ship, only two seas, at least more than 100,000 yuan of benefits, the Japanese country is still very poor, Goryeo is also poor, if you go south, or after pacifying the Southern Han Dynasty, get Guangzhou and other ports and shipbuilding technology, as well as nautical charts, the profit is even thicker."
"Your way of making money is too superb," Pan Mei sighed. I was like a thief on the front line, and I finally got 10,000 yuan, but in the eyes of my son-in-law, I was like a piece of paper, completely gray. Pan Mei has no heart to make money now, why do you want to make money. Not only him, but even Yin Chongke has no intention of making money, his son has not done anything, and he has more money than he has made, so why bother to make money secretly?
"No, a country is not stable without agriculture, no work is not rich, no business is not living, I occupy the word industry and commerce, and I occupy the advantage of knowledge, it is not easy to get rich."
"Go on."
"If the father-in-law wants them to be angry, it is not possible to put them in the capital to enjoy themselves, they are born in sorrow and die in pleasure. It is not necessary to carve the jade, but if you want to get the jade, you must carve. For example, leading troops into battle, the two uncles are not better than me. ”
"What if you read?"
"Then I don't know much, but it's very difficult for Zhongjinshi, or read the character, it is a small way after all, and it is difficult to do anything politically."
"Who do you think is the avenue of Confucianism and Materialism?"
"Zhangren, do you really think that the country will not be able to leave Confucianism? Look at some powerful countries in the West, their Confucianism, some countries have been established longer than the Han and Tang dynasties, and there are also kings and emperors. What is the answer? But my husband, let's say this in private, don't make it public, those Confucians will spray us to death. ”
"You go on to talk about them."
"They're older, I'm really embarrassed to say, continue to study in Taixue, at least everyone will be together and have a friendship in the future." It just depends on what happens. In fact, the academy cultivates not only talents of physical character, but also some of them are real official talents, His Majesty noticed it, but he did not expose it, and I can't let go for the time being. Once you let go, you will become a state machine, and it is very likely that you will be more productive when you come out of the academy. But how do we know what the future holds? Song Jiu sighed, the Confucian power was too strong. Everyone wants to want Jackie Chan, Song Jiu analyzes the three and lets Pan Mei choose. (To be continued......)
