Chapter 270: The Qin Army Criminalizes the Border [Asking for a Monthly Pass]
Tang Yu and Meng Sunchang did not win a quick battle.
On the contrary, the two fought very excitingly, and the scholars present were all very addicted.
Both of them use calligraphy, Tang Yu's calligraphy is "Huaisu Tuoti", and Meng Sunchang's calligraphy is "Zhang Zhenren's Crazy Grass", and both of them have very high calligraphy attainments.
For high school students, they mainly learn techniques and learn to use pens.
Seeing that the brushwork and techniques of the two masters are perfect, it can be said that it is of great help to their practice.
For the middle school students, this fight brought more shock.
Because the middle school students have just started their enlightenment, although they know that the purpose of studying is to practice, they have not personally seen the strength of the practitioners.
What I saw with my own eyes today, many scholars suddenly realized that cultivators were so powerful and transcendent to the mundane, and for a moment they had an extraordinary yearning for cultivation in their hearts.
This yearning is bound to make them work harder on top of their studies.
Tang Yu also has this purpose today, and it should be said that this purpose has been accomplished very well.
The two sides fought more than 100 moves, and Meng Sun often took the initiative to admit defeat, only to see him bow down seriously, and said: "Lord Xie Tang's guidance, Xia Guan has benefited a lot today!"
Tang Yu just smiled faintly.
Today, he used Huaisu to give advice, because Meng Sunchang already had this book in his hand.
Thinking about it for the past few days, he should have gained.
Now that Tang Yu is using this book, it will definitely be of great help to him, so Meng Sun Chang has such respect.
Tang Yu accepted Meng Sunchang's politeness calmly, and his mood was very refreshing.
Meng Sun Chang, Zong Kui, and Tan Zhongmou should be treated differently, and Meng Sun has common sense, so he must be appeased, and he should be rewarded with more favors and rewards to pull this person into his camp.
Zong Kui secretly messed with ghosts, and he had to be beaten to death with a stick. It is necessary to constantly use various occasions to suppress his prestige, so that he will gradually lose the support of the people.
Tan Zhongmou couldn't bear it, so he had to beat him, to make him understand that he, the first monk in Hengzhou, was in the past. When Tang Yu came to Hengzhou, he could only lean back.
What's more, Tang Yu held a poetry meeting to establish his prestige, which can be said to be a means of drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle for academic politics. If Tan Zhongmou doesn't know each other again, Tang Yu will immediately have the next round of attack strategy.
Today's poetry meeting can be said to be a very successful one.
Tang Yu established his image very well, and he also beat the three opponents a lot.
Although it is not a day's work for Tang Yu to truly control the situation in Hengzhou, with this good start, Tang Yu can basically gain a foothold.
The prefect's yamen is no longer an empty yamen, at least in the eyes of the scholars and the people, the prefect's yamen is the first yamen in Hengzhou.
......
After the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting, Tang Yu gradually converged his edge.
The new officials took office three times and there was a short silence in Hengzhou.
Tang Yu did not stretch out his hand to Xuezheng. He did not interfere in the administration of the Yamen, except for ascending to the hall every day, Tang Yu spent most of his time hiding in the backyard to practice.
Entering the WTO is the means, and the practice is the goal.
Although he is in the red dust, he must have the heart of being born, and Tang Yu will never dare to forget this.
Practice is long, not a day's work.
Tang Yu can have today's height at the age of seventeen, which did not make him get carried away, he knows it very well. The reason why he has improved by leaps and bounds is because of Tao Yi.
Qiankun moved this evil way and helped him a lot.
But after reaching the realm of the Cave Realm, there is no longer such an evil art. You can only rely on your own slow accumulation and diligent cultivation, and there is absolutely no opportunistic place in it.
Most of the affairs of the yamen were arranged for Sun Youren to do.
As for the pro-soldiers and the servants, they were all handed over to the two of them to deal with it with full authority.
The most critical 5,000 border army, Tang Yu asked Su Yong to go out in person. Do not seek complete control, but seek differentiation and co-optation.
Meng Sunchang's men and horses are Meng Sunchang's after all, and Tang Yu still has a long way to go to make this left battalion border army his arm.
Tang Yu's side was silent, and Meng Sunchang, Zong Kui and Tan Zhongmou were also silent.
Zong Kui never made any more rash moves, Tan Zhongmou also devoted himself to Xuezheng, in order to save his reputation as a scholar and politician, he spared no effort, and the style of study in Hengzhou's academic circles has improved a lot.
Originally, it was a mixed and barbarian land, but now there are suddenly more readers in Hengzhou, which is a good phenomenon.
Sun Youren served a cup of fragrant tea with his own hands extremely respectfully, and said, "Lord Tang, the New Year is almost over, once a year, how should we spend this year?"
Tang Yu frowned slightly, and his mood was slightly impetuous.
In fact, his personality is not suitable for being an official, because he likes to indulge in doing things.
Recently, he has been obsessed with cultivation, and he has become more and more indifferent to the affairs of the yamen, and now that Sun Youren mentions it, it is inevitable that he will be forced to come out of the small world of cultivation.
"Tell me about the situation! What's going on lately?"
Sun Youren said: "According to my inquiry, the area around Qingshan in the west is already the territory of the Qingshan Gang, and this gang is very arrogant, and the border army can't even penetrate into Daqingshan. In the city of Hengzhou, many Western monks can be found every day.
There was even a vicious incident of magic apprentices openly performing magic in the Emerald Red Building, and the scholars of Hengzhou seemed to have become accustomed to this......"
He paused and said, "In this regard, Zong Kui, the political lord, has really done a bad job, and the state's decrees are not working, and there is no gold, silver, money and food that should be collected. If ......"
"I see! Why are you so quiet lately? It's because they're waiting for an opportunity! This year is an opportunity!" Tang Yu said lightly.
"Pass on my edict and order the Buzheng Yamen to send people to collect exorbitant taxes and taxes, and the following counties will also start at the same time! You order Linghulong's five hundred personal soldiers to divide into five teams, each of which will cooperate with the Buzheng Division, but if there is news, report it immediately!" Tang Yu said categorically.
Sun Youren said: "Only five hundred soldiers, is it enough?"
Tang Yu smiled coldly and said, "Don't forget, there are five thousand border troops behind the five hundred personal soldiers, and there is also a group of cultivators. Write an official document and send an order. How much can be collected, how much share can be completed, and what share is not required!"
Tang Yu waved his hand, and Sun Youren hurriedly retreated.
When I opened the window, there were snowflakes outside, and time flew by so fast.
When Tang Yu took office, it was early autumn, and it was already the middle of winter, and it was three or four months in the blink of an eye.
At the beginning, someone arrogantly said that Tang Yu would stay for less than a month, and this wild talk became a joke.
However, Tang Yu knew very well that the real test had just begun.
Zong Kui and others have been operating in Hengzhou for so many years, it can be said that they have big roots and deep roots, how can they be so easy to comply?
I'm afraid that at this time, Zongkui Mansion, Tan Zhongmou's Mansion, and even Meng Sunchang's Mansion, their strategists are all thinking of all kinds of tricks against themselves.
As soon as he thought of this, a sneer appeared on the corner of Tang Yu's mouth: "You are waiting, why am I not waiting? You are waiting for the end of the year, but I am waiting for you to make a move." Who is the praying mantis and who is the cicada?"
"My lord, join the army, Lord Mengsun pays homage!" a personal soldier hurriedly ran over and said loudly.
"Open the middle door to welcome guests!" Tang Yu said loudly, he really didn't expect that the first person to break the silence would be Meng Sunchang.
Meng Sun often came quickly, dressed in armor, with his mighty figure, he looked very mighty.
He knelt down on one knee and said loudly: "The last general, Meng Sun, often see your lord!"
Tang Yu smiled and said, "Lord Mengsun, you have seen it so fully armed, there must be something!"
Meng Sun Chang paused and said: "Report to your lordship, the barbarians of the Qin State have committed another offense! Midwinter is coming, and the people of the Qin State are restless at this time of year, and the same is true today. Inside and outside Daqing Mountain, thousands of people have been driven to the Hengzhou Plain, what should the general do, please make it clear. ”
Tang Yu frowned and said, "What did you do in previous years?"
Meng Sun often said: "Lord Hui, at the end of the previous year, the general personally led the border army to face the head-on, and there was absolutely no reason for timidity. ”
"Haha!" Tang Yu laughed and waved his big hand: "Isn't it the same this year? You are the general of the border army, and this kind of thing is your duty, and I will naturally not hinder the soldiers from making meritorious contributions!"
"Uh......"
Meng Sun Chang was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to answer.
After pondering for a long time, he said: "The Qin army is not like in previous years this year, it is menacing, and there are many mages to follow. Although our border army is strong, how can the warriors resist the mage......?
Tang Yu said lightly: "It's simple, come on, call Lord Tan immediately, and ask him to summon all the scholars above the high school level in the Wuling academic circle to come to the prefect's yamen to discuss matters!"
"Lord Mengsun, there is no hurry to exterminate the thieves. You can also participate in the discussion!" Tang Yu said lightly.
"By the way, let Master Zong come too. Master Zong is also a master of the Cave Xuan Realm, and he is a strong man in my Hengzhou! How can I forget him?"
Tang Yu gave the order, but he entered the backyard and secretly ordered Su Yong to prepare a sedan chair.
The blue sedan chair blended into the crowded streets, and Tang Yu's target turned out to be Cuihong Building, the first brothel in Hengzhou.
Tang Yu walked all the way to the Emerald Red Mansion and went straight into the most luxurious private room.
After about a cup of tea, the door of the private room was pushed open, and a cloaked gentleman walked in.
Lifting the cloak, the scholar knelt down and said, "Lord Tang, Linchuan lived up to the trust, and I saw Brother Qinghou in Songdu!"
"Linchuan, please get up quickly, tell me about the situation?"
Dare to love this scholar turned out to be Gu Linchuan, Tang Yu let him go to the Song Kingdom secretly half a month ago, and he happened to rush back today.
"Lord Tang, the ...... of Xiaoyao Villa"
Tang Yu waved his hand and said, "Linchuan, who asked you about the Joyful Villa? Let me ask you how you are waiting for him, how is he now? With his talent, he should be like a fish in water in the Song Kingdom!"
Gu Linchuan was stunned, nodded and said, "My lord guessed well, Brother Qinghou has already entered the Hanlin Academy." This year, the head of Chunfu High School, Huiyuan, successfully stepped into the realm of epiphany, and when I went, he had just returned from a study tour in Kyoto!
I just happened to be in time for his reception banquet, and the pomp was so big, I have only seen it in my life!"
Tang Yu nodded and said, "Xie Qinghou is a personal disciple of Gao Yu of the Hermit School, so he is naturally not an ordinary person. Toujia Huiyuan, well, that's not bad!" (To be continued.) )
