Chapter 909: External Troubles
In the Xu family's iron yard and blacksmith shop, there are not no people who can manage things and do things, although there are few Xu families like Xu Housheng and Xu Bende, they are not so rare, but Zhao Jin doesn't want them to be alone, because the Xu family and the craftsmen from the Xu family system are too powerful, and they are self-contained.
This kind of self-contained is not only in the exclusion of outsiders, but even resistance to new technologies and practices, a person who says that he is right, a person who thinks that what his master teaches can not be changed, these are all good to say, if ten people, a hundred people are saying this, that is the truth, who wants to improve, will not be able to do it, the things that are arranged will be contrary to the yang and yin, find a completely obedient to their own "outsiders" to manage, the effect will be better, the efficiency will be higher.
Although Louie's management methods and organizational system are not advanced in Zhao Jin's eyes, they are still better than the rules and regulations of the Xu family factory, at least they will not cover each other and cannot erase each other's affection.
On the way back to Hejiazhuang from the artillery field, Hu Cong's personal guards looked very excited, in their impression, this cannon is a militaristic heavy weapon, and the people cannot have it, but today they see that Zhao Ziying himself also has such artillery, which makes everyone confident and proud, and there are more guards who have participated in the battle to seize the artillery there to tell about the artillery of the official army, saying how the cannon is backward, compared to the sharpness that I just saw, which makes everyone's feelings even more high.
"Be vigilant, look around, don't talk about anything," Zhuang Liu, who led the team, shouted in a deep voice, and everyone immediately cleaned up a lot.
Zhao Jin glanced at this Zhuang Liu, since he knew about this "Xinglong Society", he paid special attention to the members inside, and I have to say that the people in this Xinglong Society are indeed more rigorous, meticulous in implementing their own orders, and have the "military temperament" in their own memory.
When he was about to arrive at Hejiazhuang, Wang Zhaojing greeted him on the side of the road, and Chen Han led the five companies of the first regiment to go to Dangshan to practice, which is also the rule of the Zhao Ziying Jiading team, each team must regularly carry out armed parades, so that the family members are used to marching, and they also show force in all aspects, and Ji Xiang is leading the horse team to the Guide Mansion to pick up the horses, and it is also the junction of Guide Mansion and Kaifeng Mansion, which is the westernmost part of the Zhao Ziying control area.
Since Wang Ziyang's elite privileges were cancelled, he himself can already feel the shrinkage of his income, as well as the decline of his status in Xuzhou, and Wang Ziyang, who regrets it, is trying his best to get it back, and doing everything possible to please Zhao Jin's side.
The Mongolian Ding Zhuang who can ride and shoot is very useful, but it is not very meaningful to the current Zhao Ziying, after all, these people cannot immediately integrate into the system of the Zhao Ziying, and it is very difficult to digest, while the good horse is different, this is a valuable property anywhere in the world.
From the mouth to Shanxi and then to Henan, Wang Ziyang opened up all joints regardless of the cost, the risk is not very big, but it is still prudent, the horse team is currently under the jurisdiction of the pro-guard, and Ji Xiang also has to personally go over to answer and escort.
These days, the group training of all walks of life in Hejiazhuang is led by Zhao Jin himself, if it is not related to this artillery, Zhao Jin will not leave here, after Zhao Jin leaves, Wang Zhaojing is sitting here.
"How many times have you said that your brother doesn't need to be too polite, why did you come out again." Seeing Wang Zhaojing greeting him, Zhao Jin said with a wry smile.
"Big brother, there is something important." Wang Zhaojing said with a solemn expression.
Zhao Jin didn't say much, just urged the mount, all the way into Hejiazhuang, and when he entered the council hall, Wang Zhaojing said: "The news transmitted by Yunshanxing said that since the second half of last year, the Lu Wangfu has been crying to the court about the local inappeasement, asking for more soldiers and horses to guard, saying that the news has finally arrived in the palace, and also said that the soldiers and horses that have retreated from Liaozhen will be placed on the side of Yanzhou Mansion and fill in the empty shelf. ”
After the Jianzhou Jurchen started the war against the Ming Dynasty, Liaozhen continued to fail, and the official army of Liaozhen also continued to retreat, a large number of defeated soldiers retreated to the Guannei, some people took 6 roads from Shanhaiguan to Beizhili, but there were also many people who took the sea route to Shandong Dengzhou Mansion, the sea route between Liaozhen and Shandong is very easy, there are many islands along the way, and it is the route of grain and grass supply.
After the so-called "Liao soldiers" came to Shandong, they clashed with the local gentry and common people, and the outsiders were not welcomed, not to mention these defeated troops, not to mention that they came here, and they also had to supply them locally, and they also had to squeeze out the resources that were not abundant in the locality, and the officials and soldiers of Liao Town were also military warriors, and they had knives in their hands, so they naturally would not be angry in vain, and this conflict became more and more intense.
At the beginning, this kind of conflict can still be vague in the past, but as the scale gets bigger and bigger, the government can't cover it up, the Beijing officials who were born in Shandong began to prepare, and the court always has to come up with a way to appease, but the world is suffering from Liao salary and various harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, who still has the strength to bear a bad reputation of the guest army, the center has no way, and can only sit back and watch the Liao army in Dengzhou Mansion more and more, and the local conflict is getting bigger and bigger.
However, the request of the Yanzhou Lu Mansion has given the next way out, since you are in an emergency, then I will place the soldiers and horses over to protect the Yanzhou Mansion, and this will not provoke a backlash from any Yanzhou-born officials, on the ground of the Yanzhou Mansion, the Lu Wangfu can suppress a lot of things, as for the suffering of the people, or how the relief will be restored after the earthquake, then no one cares.
"How many soldiers and horses do you want to arrange for Yanzhou Mansion?"
"It is rumored that there are more than 8,000, and the news from Jining says that King Lu's Mansion is very scared now, for fear that we will call over, and King Lu will play in the palace all day long to ask for help."
Zhao Jin frowned and said in a sullen voice: "It's almost as expected, even if it's Wei Zhongxian, he can't stop the ventilation between the vassal king and Ouchi, the words of the Son of Heaven, he can't change anything." ”
"If there are 8,000 Liao soldiers in Yanzhou Mansion, it means that there are more than 10,000 officers and soldiers in the north of our Zhaozi battalion, and a brigade of Lu Da plus 1,000 regiments will not be enough." Wang Zhaojing said with some worry.
"His more than 10,000 officers and troops are not piled up in one place, nor are they placed on the side of Yutai County, if they move, we will definitely gather troops faster, don't worry too much." Zhao Jin said in a sullen voice, then patted the coffee table on his side, and said: "King Lu's Mansion is really troublesome."
Wang Zhaojing took a sip of the tea bowl, and said worriedly: "The news from Henan Weihui, as well as the Jingshi side, Henan Luwangfu is also very tossed, these vassal kings can't afford to lose, and after being beaten back by us, they always want to find it back, this time the affairs of Shandong can go to the palace, and the Henan Wangfu should have made a lot of efforts." ”
The beginning of Shandong Lu Wangfu is the son of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, and the beginning of Henan Lu Wangfu is Wanli's younger brother Fengwang, although they are all Zhu family of the same clan, but there is a big difference between far and near, the relationship between King Lu and Emperor Tianqi is not bad, after all, it is an uncle and nephew who have met, and Shandong Lu Wang is far away, after all, different branches for hundreds of years, these two families and the Son of Heaven have a big gap in their relationship, these two families have no friendship at all, the first generation of feudal kings in the early Ming Dynasty has always had some inexplicable pride and reserve for the later vassal kings, The later ones are a little contemptuous of the previous ones, and naturally they don't get along well.
However, at this time, the two families have one thing in common, that is, they have suffered a big loss on the young tyrant surnamed Zhao in Xuzhou, or a bloody loss, although the cause is the greed of the stewards and even the slaves below, but after the conflict, the two palaces are unable to swallow this breath, and the other is to be moved by the wealth of Xuzhou, whether it is Henan or Shandong, the wealth of Xuzhou is a place where they can reach out, this wealth is so huge, and it is a cornucopia that can continue to generate wealth, which is really eye-catching.
In addition, these two families also have personal grudges with Zhao Ziying, or the subordinates were killed, or the property was embezzled, under the great tomorrow, everything belongs to the Zhu family, even the name, the vassal kings have always been unscrupulous, but in Xuzhou they have suffered such a big loss, how can this be bearable.
Shandong Lu Wangfu went to hug the grievances and told the urgency, and Henan Luwangfu was also doing similar things, and even helping, after all, Henan is a dark place, and Shandong is the official army has suffered a defeat, and the placement of Liao soldiers in Yanzhou Mansion can be said to be done by the two families.
"It's all a scourge." Zhao Jin gritted his teeth and said.
"Do you want to do it? According to what the eldest brother said before, now is not a good time. Wang Zhaojing asked.
Zhao Jin shook his head slowly, and was silent for a while before saying: "Not only the timing, the palace is in the big city, we can't attack the city, and we can't besiege the city." ”
Speaking of this, Wang Zhaojing is also silent, Zhao Ziying can be said to be powerful in the field battle, but the siege of the city is very lacking, relying on bows and arrows and fire guns can not break those tall and thick city walls, long-term siege will attract the world's soldiers and horses to besiege, and can not be like the thieves, drive the people to attack the city, there is really no corresponding way.
"I'm not in a hurry, and I'm not afraid." After being quiet for a while, Zhao Jin spoke.
"The younger brother will arrange for someone to keep an eye on these two places, and the internal guard will also have to do it, and ask the eldest brother to tell Xiaoyong." Speaking of which, Wang Zhaojing wanted to say goodbye and leave.
At this time, there was a notice outside, saying that Ruhui asked to see him, and Wang Zhaojing simply stayed.
"Master, third master, Geng Mancang from Yutou Town rushed over and said that there was something important to report." Ruhui said after entering the house.
Hearing this, Wang Zhaojing smiled and said to Ruhui with a mocking tone: "This Geng Mancang really has the intention of making progress, if he is in the officialdom, he will definitely not be bad." ”
"Before, this person was scared to death, but now he is probably not afraid." Ruhui replied with a smile.
