Chapter 156: Taking Control of the North

The tumultuous battle finally came to an end, and everything returned to calm, but the aftermath was far from subsided.

After the doctor's treatment, Qi Dushuai finally woke up, and it can be regarded as a walk in the ghost gate, picking up a life, but his injury is too serious, even if he wakes up, it is difficult for the body to return to the previous state, according to the doctor, this serious injury, at least let Qi Commander Shuai reduce his life for ten years, and now Qi Commander has long lost the majesty when he commanded the army, he is just a dying old man.

Qi Commander Shuai came to his senses, Shao Shan naturally wanted to visit, and Qi Commander Shuai had already understood what had happened and the current situation in Tanzhou City, perhaps after life and death, he had seen a lot, and he was no longer so nostalgic for power, so Qi Commander Shuai only thanked Shao Shan and did not talk about anything else.

As for the matter of Tanzhou City, the generals of Tanzhou City naturally hoped that Commander Qi would come out to preside over the overall situation, but Commander Qi sent them all to Shaoshan, which made these people very embarrassed.

Shao Shan naturally knows the thoughts of these people well, but he only sneered a few times, these people are just clowns who are greedy for power, they are afraid that Shao Shan's presiding over the overall situation will have an impact on their status, so they ran to Qi Commandershuai to test one or two.

It's just that these people are wrong, Governor Qi is completely powerless now, I'm afraid that Emperor Liang will not rest assured that he will continue to be in charge of the border defense in the north, all this Governor Qi is naturally very clear, and he will naturally not offend Shao Shan at this time.

Soon after, Governor Qi personally wrote to the imperial court to resign as the governor of the north, and mentioned a series of exploits of Shao Shan, and recommended Shao Shan to take over his position, which can be regarded as a kind of goodwill of Governor Qi to Shao Shan.

Governor Qi, who has been in the officialdom all his life, now has less utilitarian heart, but sees it better than anyone else that Shaoshan's future is limitless, and it is only appropriate to make friends and not offend.

Soon, the will of the imperial court reached the northern border, and the commander of Qi had mastered the northern border defense for many years, worked hard and made great achievements, and was allowed to return to Jinling to recuperate, and Shao Shan succeeded to the title of Marquis of Jingbian from now on, ranking as a first-class military marquis, and the inheritance ceremony was returned to Jinling to do it again, and all the affairs of the northern border were handed over to Shaoshan to control.

Since then, Shao Shan has truly become the youngest first-rank military marquis in Daliang to hold real power, and has a pivotal position above the court.

The military marquis of the previous generation of Daliang are all dying, even if their descendants inherit the marquis, they are just some idle marquis, and the position of this marquis can only inherit one generation, they naturally cannot be compared with Shao Shan.

Therefore, although on the surface, Shao Shan's rank is the same as that of many first-class military marquis in the court, but his status is undoubtedly much higher.

None of this was out of Shao Shan's expectations, since he knew that Qi Dushuai was seriously injured and the situation in Tanzhou City, he had a premonition of this day, so no matter how some people in Tanzhou City jumped, he sat firmly on the Diaoyu Tai.

It is not that no one in the court wants to control this powerful force in the north into their own hands, whether it is the crown prince or the king of Yu, they have tried their best to do this, but everything is in vain, it is impossible for Emperor Liang to hand over such an important position to the two princes, which is tantamount to breaking the balance between the two.

Moreover, the northern border is not a peaceful place, and it is absolutely impossible to control it without some ability and means, and the most important thing is that Shao Shan has hit Tuoba Hao hard, and everyone knows that the Tuoba family will definitely not give up, and now being the governor of the north is tantamount to taking the blame for Shao Shan.

Soon, Zhao Hai led a hundred soldiers of the forbidden army to escort Commander Qi back to Jinling, after all, they were royal forbidden troops, and it was impossible to follow Shao Shan's side all the time.

Since then, Shao Shan has ruled the northern realm, but it echoes the Nihuang county lord in the south, and many people compare the two with each other, which can be regarded as a good story.

The lord of Nihuang County controls 100,000 iron cavalry in the south, and Shao Shan is not far behind, and there are 100,000 male soldiers under his command, because the north has to guard against the two neighbors Beiyan and Dayu, and the Northern Yan invaded that day, and the Dayu army was also ready to move, so the army in the north was divided into two parts, one part to deter Dayu, and one to resist the Northern Yan army.

Not long after Shao Shan succeeded as the commander of the northern realm, news came out from Beiyan that the Shence Admiral Tuoba Hao, who had been severely injured by Shao Shan, was out of danger and sobered up, but his body was still recovering, and it was definitely difficult to recover to the peak without a few years of cultivation.

At this point, the mutual attack on the Northern Yan Dynasty can be regarded as an end, in the past, it was just that the Tuoba family did not care about counterattacking, so that many political enemies continued to attack, and now Tuoba Hao is sober, and the Tuoba family has free their hands, and the incident is quickly calmed down.

And not long after, the Tuoba family even released the words, this time the great feud is not shared, and Shao Shan will definitely make Shao Shan pay the due price, in this regard, Shao Shan just laughed at it, the Tuoba family is indeed deep-rooted in Beiyan, but there are a few outstanding children who can really do it, the best Tuoba Hao was almost killed by himself, what else is there to be arrogant, it is just a bluff.

Since then, Shao Shan has taken root in the north with peace of mind, gathered his own forces, and constantly promoted some young generals who had not been reused before to establish his own team.

As an outsider, Shao Shan, who can almost be said to have parachuted into the position of the commander of the northern territory, naturally there are many obstacles in the process of taking charge of the army, and these obstacles are not from the soldiers at the lower level, but from the many generals at the upper level.

Commander Qi has guarded the northern border for many years, and the various forces under his command are also intertwined, and they have developed to their peak, and they have a deep imprint and influence in the army.

Now Shao Shan wants to fully control the Northern Army, which will naturally touch the interests of many people, these people are obedient on the surface, no matter what they say, but secretly they are constantly making small moves, from the army to the common people, constantly creating trouble for Shao Shan, one is to show their energy, and the other is to force Shao Shan to make concessions, which was the case when they faced Qi Commander.

But soon, they found that they seemed to have miscalculated something this time, Shao Shan was not the commander of Qi, Shao Shan's toughness exceeded everyone's expectations, and he was decisive and ruthless, without the slightest mercy.

Within three days, as many as twenty-three grassroots generals in the army were killed with a cane, and this number is still increasing, and all of them are charged with only one crime, not obeying military regulations, and treating the law as nothing!

There was even a school official panicked and tried to gather a crowd to mutiny, but soon, the full camp was executed by Shao Shan, and more people were implicated.
