For one day, there was turmoil in Jingzhou's officialdom.

It's just that the scope of the turmoil is limited to officials belonging to Cai Mao's line. All the people were transferred from their original posts, and even the newly appointed officials were in place on the same day, and the handover was directly completed.

After these officials were promoted, or were elevated, they went to Cai's mansion one after another.

In the hall, Cai Mao sat directly above, looked at the officials below, with a puzzled expression, and asked, "You guys come together to find this official, is there anything wrong?"

Everyone came to Cai's house, and this battle was a bit unusual.

Even if it is Cai Mao, he is also beating the drum in his heart.

An old man with gray hair and over sixty years old cried and said, "Military advisor, something is wrong. Xiaguan is Hu Cao of Xiangyang County, and he is in charge of Xiangyang's money bags. This morning, the governor directly dismissed the lower official from his official post by an order, saying that he was transferred to a county in Wuling County to serve as a county commander. ”

The old man sighed lightly: "Although it is said to be a promotion, Wuling County is far away, there are many mountains and forests, and barbarians often haunt it. On the surface, the promotion of the lower officials has become a county order, but in fact, it is a disguised demotion of officials. Xia Guan's body and bones, I am afraid that before he took office in Wuling County, his time was running out. Strategist, you have to call the shots for your subordinates. ”

Speaking of this, the old man snorted and cried, and said: "If it really doesn't work, the only way to go down is to resign." ”

A middle-aged man took over and also spoke: "Military advisor, the subordinate official is the county governor of Xiangyang County. The official position is not big, but it is also a good position in Xiangyang County. Now, the governor ordered that the lower official be promoted to the county magistrate of Chenyang County, Wuling County. According to the Yi nationality, Chenyang County has a wide terrain and an area larger than three or five Xiangyang counties, which is a high rise. ”

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man opened his mouth and snorted, and said sharply: "Chenyang County is poor and bad, and there are mountains and forests everywhere. I heard that the county seat of Chenyang County will be attacked by barbarians three or five times a year. Xia Guan went to Chenyang County, and I am afraid that in less than a year, he will die at the hands of the barbarians. Advisor, you can't do this. It is immoral and unreasonable for the state pastor to do so. ”

"Ah, you're also Wuling County. ”

The white-haired old man spoke, a look of surprise on his face.

The middle-aged man said: "Yes, this time it was too strange, and it was decided directly, and there was no room for even a little turnaround." Now the new county governor has been put in place, and there are already new officials. ”

"Well, don't talk about it. If you want to say bitterness, who can have my bitterness. My appointment was further afield, and I was assigned to Lingling County as a prefectural commander. Lingling County borders Jiaozhou, which is even more unpeaceful. ”

"What is Lingling County, I was assigned to Jiaozhou. Although some of the current Jiaozhou is also under the control of the state pastor, however, Jiaozhou is constantly disputed and wars are continuous, and I went to Jiaozhou, which is even more dangerous. ”

One by one, the officials spoke, the corners of Cai Mao's mouth twitched, and she was already angry in her heart.

hateful

It's so hateful

In order to deal with him, he directly adjusted everyone in his department. It is nominally promoted, but it is a bright promotion and a secret descent, and even degraded to remote places. Once all the people in his department went to Lingling County, Wuling County, and Jiaozhou to take up their posts, the hearts of the officials in Cai Mao's department were scattered, and it was impossible to unite again.

Cai Mao overhauled it and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, this matter will be handled by this official." ”

In the face of the officials under his command, he could not say a discouraged word.

Otherwise, people's hearts will be more scattered.

Cai Mao also knew that his current situation was not good, especially after Liu Xiu reversed the situation, Liu Biao had a great opinion of him. There is no doubt that Liu Biao agreed to this official adjustment.

Although Cai Mao knows Liu Biao's character and knows that Liu Biao's ears are soft, but now that he asks him to find Liu Biao, he doesn't have much confidence in his heart, and he doesn't let me persuade Liu Biao to take back the order.

However, the others listened to Cai Mao's words and were completely relieved.

"The military advisor is the confidant of the state pastor, and if the military advisor persuades the state pastor, he will definitely be able to get the state pastor to take back the order. ”

"With the military advisor here, everything is fine. ”

The dejected expressions on their faces disappeared and they returned to laughter.

"Newspaper"

Suddenly, outside the hall, an attendant walked in quickly.

Cai Mao asked, "What's the matter?"

The attendant replied, "Master of the family, a group of generals in armor have come outside, asking to see the head of the family. ”

As soon as these words came out, Cai Mao's heart suddenly had a bad premonition. The officials of the civil official department in Jingzhou have been promoted and demoted one by one, and now that the military is coming, could it be that all the generals of his department have been taken down.

Cai Mao commanded: "Please"

The attendant ordered, and soon, the sound of hurried footsteps came from far and near.

The sound of commotion also came into the hall.

A team of generals wearing armor, with faces full of flesh, murderous spirit, and a look of indignation in their eyes, hurriedly entered the hall. After everyone stood still, they bowed their hands to Cai Mao.

The one standing at the front said: "Military Division, I was originally a lieutenant in the army. Now I have been promoted and become a partial general in the army, but all the soldiers under my command have been taken over, called partial generals, but there are no soldiers, and they are directly elevated. Advisor, whose decision is this, how can this be?"

Another person said: "Strategist, I am a soldier in the army, and there are some soldiers under my command. But now that I'm a general, the soldiers under my command are gone, and they're all gone. What's going on?"

A group of generals spoke one after another, all of them had great mood swings, and they were very angry.

The most important thing is that the adjusted generals are limited to the generals of Cai Mao's family. None of the generals of the other factions have been adjusted. Now Cai Mao and his hostile people are cheering and celebrating.

This situation made them even more angry.

Therefore, after all the generals colluded, they all came to Cai's mansion to meet and wanted to ask Cai Mao to help.

At this moment, Cai Mao's heart was full of coldness, and even there was a trace of horror in his heart. The other party did it too simply, not only the civil and official series, but even the military generals and all of them were taken.

To achieve such an effect, Liu Biao must have nodded.

Cai Mao asked, "Who in the army gave the order?"

One of the generals spoke: "Wen Ping took over the army, and he gave the order of the governor of the state. Because he presides over the army, we have no choice. Someone else, Sensei wants to take over the army. ”

The corners of Cai Mao's mouth twitched, and her heart sank even more.

Wen Ping is a general in Jingzhou, and he is also Liu Biao's confidant. Wen Ping personally took over all the soldiers in Xiangyang, and the situation became more complicated. In terms of civilian officials, it was the Iraqi nationality who did it himself.

In this way, Cai Mao is very passive, and it is even more difficult to reverse the situation.

Cai Mao's mood became chaotic, but he couldn't let it go. These are his people, and he can't say to these people that I'm all mud and I can't protect myself when I cross the river.

Now, he must take responsibility.

Cai Mao said: "Don't worry, I'll go to see the state pastor and let the state pastor readjust." ”

"Newspaper"

Suddenly, another attendant ran in.

The attendant's eyes were worried, and he said in a panic: "Military advisor, Xiu Gongzi is here, and there are Yi nationality who follow Xiu Gongzi." Behind them, there was also a group of soldiers. ”

"Boom"

The civilian, military and military generals in the hall exploded all at once.

Liu Xiu and Yi Ji actually came to Cai's house together at this time, and they also came with soldiers, what are their intentions The civil and military officials in the hall were all panicked.

Cai Mao snorted and said, "Invite someone in." ”

"No need to please, I'm already here. ”

Liu Xiuhong's bright voice sounded at the door of the hall. When all the people heard the voice, they saw that at the door of the hall, Liu Xiu was sitting on the wooden wheeled car, and the soldiers carried the wooden wheeled car into the hall, and then Deng Ai pushed the wooden wheeled car and slowly entered.

The Yi followed and followed.

Beside the two, the soldiers stood in solemn formation. These soldiers, all wearing armor, are murderous, making people dare not approach.

Cai Mao said solemnly: "Xiu Gongzi came to Cai's Mansion, what's the matter?"

Liu Xiu pursed a smile on the corner of his mouth and said, "When I came to find Master Cai, I naturally had something important to do." Oh, this should be the last time I'll call you Cai Junshi. Wait a while, and you'll no longer be a military advisor. ”

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the hall.

Everyone's eyes fell on Liu Xiu, and they wondered why Liu Xiu said such a thing, could it be that Cai Mao was also belittled. The eyes they looked at Cai Mao were even more weird.

Did Cai Mao make any mistakes?

All of them looked puzzled, unclear about the current situation.

Cai Mao said: "Liu Xiu, what do you mean?"

Liu Xiu said: "Cai Mao, don't you understand until now, last night, my son caught the person who gave you advice, you hurt others and ended up harming yourself, and now he confessed everything." ”

"Hmm"

Cai Mao's eyes showed a panicked look
