Chapter 152: Stabilizing the Situation
Jiangdu Palace.
Luo Tong came quickly, in fact, early this morning, he received an order from Li Yizhi, asking him to gather the county soldiers and wait for the notice at any time.
Therefore, after receiving Shao Lingzhou's summons, he immediately led 3,000 county soldiers and arrived quickly.
With Luo Tong and the three thousand soldiers, Li Yizhi's heart finally became steady.
He ordered the county soldiers to reorganize the Praetorian Guards and personal guards, and cleaned up the remaining strength of the Dugu Valve and the Yuwen Valve one by one.
In this way, he firmly controlled the Jiangdu Palace.
As for the Xiaoguo Army, Li Yizhi was not worried, because they were originally loyal to the imperial court.
Now that Sima Dejiao is dead, the unstable factors have been eliminated, and there is naturally no hidden danger.
It was busy until the evening that Li Yizhi straightened out everything, and then found Yang Guang to report the situation about the casualties of this rebellion.
In the end, Li Yizhi said: "Your Majesty, because the personal guards suffered heavy casualties, the Praetorian Guards were not enough to be trusted, so for the safety of the palace, Weichen suggested that the emperor re-elect the personal guards and the forbidden army. ”
Yang Guang had the most headache for such a thing, and he said directly: "Aiqing is loyal, and my safety will be handed over to you in the future." As for the matter of the guards and the forbidden army, it is up to you to handle it. By the way, Aiqing should not forget to raid Yu Wenhua and Sima Dejia's mansion, and send the confiscated family property to the inner treasury, and I am about to build a new summer palace. ”
Li Yizhi hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, regarding the chief and deputy commanders of the guard, Weichen can recommend Dao Chang and Yin Kaishan, both of whom are congenital masters, and they can protect the emperor's safety." As for the commander of the forbidden army, Weichen can also recommend Luo Tong, who is the captain of Yangzhou County and is good at training. It's just that this re-selection of the guards and the forbidden army can only be selected from the Xiaoguo army, and Weichen ......"
Before Li Yizhi finished speaking, Yang Guang said, "That's it, Aiqing." I now order you to temporarily restrain the Xiaoguo army, so that you can choose from among them the guards and the forbidden army. ”
Yang Guang was still not completely deaf in the end, and he did not completely hand over the most fundamental Xiaoguo Army to Li Yizhi.
But this is enough for Li Yizhi.
With temporary moderation, he can become forever in control.
So, Li Yizhi hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes, Your Majesty." ”
…………
Walking out of the dormitory, Li Yizhi found the four of Shilong and came to a side hall to discuss matters.
Li Yizhi said in a deep voice: "Dao Chief, for the time being, you will be the commander of the personal guards, and the Yin Gang Master will be your deputy, and the two of you will protect the emperor in close quarters and lead the three thousand personal guards." The guards selected 2,000 men from the county soldiers, and another 1,000 from the original guards. ”
"Luo Tong, you will be the commander of the forbidden army in the future, select two thousand county soldiers, and select five thousand people from the original Praetorian Guard."
"Mr. Shao, you take care of the affairs of the Bamboo Flower Gang for the time being. At the same time, 2,000 people were selected from the Zhuhua Gang and the Beggar Gang, and a new county soldier was formed based on the remaining 1,000 county soldiers, with you as the commander and Chen Yuan as the deputy captain. You fully support him in training the soldiers and building up their combat power as soon as possible. ”
This appointment and dismissal, Shi Long doesn't care, he has almost no desires except for cultivation now.
But Yin Kaishan and the three of them were excited.
Especially Luo Tong, he went from being a captain of the local county soldiers to the commander of the palace guards all of a sudden, which can be described as a step to the sky.
Although Yin Kaishan and Shao Lingzhou were envious in their hearts, they also knew that they were not Li Yizhi's true descendants before.
But after this time, they have completely become descendants.
After this mutiny, Li Yizhi not only controlled the Jiangdu Palace, but also took the opportunity to master the Xiaoguo Army, becoming the strongest force in the world today, which can be described as a promising future.
"Thank you for the promotion."
All the people bowed down in unison.
Li Yizhi helped him for a moment and said, "You guys go get busy first, I still have to go to the Xiaoguo Army camp to take over the Xiaoguo Army." ”
Taking advantage of the night, after Li Yizhi left the palace, he hurried towards the Xiaoguo military camp.
Although he said that when he reported to Yang Guang, he proposed to re-elect the personal guards and the Praetorian Guards from the Xiaoguo army, but he would not really do so.
After all, the county soldiers are his foundation, and if he wants to control the palace and Yang Guang, he naturally needs to use his own people more at ease.
As for deceiving Yang Guang, Li Yizhi didn't have to worry about being discovered by the other party at all.
After all, after completely controlling the palace, he wanted Yang Guang to know what news Yang Guang could know.
An hour later, Li Yizhi rushed to the Xiaoguo army camp, and then summoned the generals who were under house arrest by Sima Deji.
After taking out the holy decree and reading out the order, although the generals were a little dissatisfied in their hearts, no one dared to show it.
For such a person who single-handedly pacified Yu Wenhua and mutiny, they dared to oppose it clearly.
However, they didn't dare to oppose it, but they still dared to give some difficult problems.
One of the generals said, "Guogong, there will be something to tell you at the end." ”
Li Yizhi sighed, and asked with his right hand: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
"Guogong, our Xiaoguo army has not received military salaries for half a year, and the food on weekdays has been repeatedly reduced, and now we can only guarantee that we will not starve to death. This makes the morale of the army extremely unstable, and the soldiers are homesick, if they are not appeased in time, the last general is worried that there may be changes in the future. ”
After the general finished speaking, the other generals echoed and complained to Li Yizhi.
"I will solve the matter of food and salary as soon as possible. In this case, my father will first allocate 200,000 taels of silver to you to buy grain, vegetables and meat, so as to ensure that the soldiers can have enough to eat at every meal. ”
Li Yizhi sat up straight and said solemnly: "As for the military salary, I will settle it within half a month, even if I can't make up the full amount, I will pay it for at least three months." ”
Regarding the complaints of these generals, Li Yi was actually willing to accept them in his heart, and he agreed to them so directly.
Because this is a good opportunity for him to buy soldiers.
As long as he is in the future, he will be paid in full every month and provided with sufficient logistical provisions.
Then Li Yizhi believes that even if he doesn't need to do more, these soldiers will choose to be loyal to him.
After all, in the final analysis, being a soldier and fighting a war is to eat military rations.
Li Yizhi paid out of his own pocket to support the Xiaoguo Army, and the Xiaoguo Army would naturally choose to be loyal to him.
Li Yizhi agreed too quickly, which made these generals hesitate.
One of the lieutenant generals was suspicious: "Guogong, our Xiaoguo army has more than 200,000 people, and the monthly military salary needs about 500,000 taels, even if it is only repaid for three months, it is 1.5 million taels, I am afraid that the emperor will not pay this silver." ”
The other generals nodded.
Now Yang Guang is extremely poor and luxurious, and all the silver is used to enjoy, if he is really willing to take it out, he will not be in arrears for half a year.
Li Yizhi said in a deep voice: "Don't worry. If the emperor doesn't pay this silver, the father will also pay for his own property and reissue it to the soldiers. ”
When the generals heard this, they were stunned at first, and then they became excited.
Li Yizhi continued: "As for the matters that are close to the soldiers, I can also promise that I will sweep away the surrounding rebels as soon as possible, and then fight back to Guanzhong. ”
