Gao Yu stood in front of the dragon case, bowed down with a respectful expression and said: "Your Majesty, the Mizhou generation is now barren, and the soldiers of the seven guards are overstretched to protect the barren beaches along the coast for thousands of miles...... Pirates are doing evil and harassing the people! Dengmi generation along the coast, there is no solid family. ”

Zhao Ji was looking at the letter in his hand, and asked absentmindedly, "What do you think of Liang Daban?" Can the illicit salt along the coast be properly disposed of? ”

Liang Shicheng, who was behind Zhao Ji, didn't look at Gao Yu, and bowed down and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, since ancient times, private salt has relied on burning mountains and boiling the sea, and now the pine and cypress trees along the coast have long been cut down by the people of the past dynasties, so the private salt in this dynasty is in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and southern Fujian, and the illegal salt along the coast of the north has basically been banned."

"Jingdong East Road...... The poor mountains and bad waters of the people everywhere! Is the Song Jiang group of thieves who have bowed down from Jingdong people?"

Liang Shicheng nodded: "Your Majesty has a good memory, indeed!"

Zhao Ji raised his head and glanced at Gao Yu: "Didn't the Dengzhou Navy Division exterminate a group of bandits last time?" Can't they take care of the Michigan generation? ”

Gao Yu's waist bent like a shrimp, and he replied: "Your Majesty, now the Ministry of War has not replenished the silver for the Dengzhou Navy to repair the warships for a long time, and the Dengzhou Navy can indeed repair it by itself, but after all, it has been in disrepair for a long time...... The maintenance of the Dengzhou generation is still stretched, and it is really beyond the reach of the whip to take care of Mizhou! ”

Zhao Ji suddenly asked: "Gao Aiqing, you have always been reluctant to say much about the border, why is this now?"

Gao Yu wiped his cold sweat, bowed down and replied: "Because a letter of excerpt is a copy of the old minister...... said that the old minister's guards and soldiers were vegetarian one by one, regardless of the bandits! There is also a shortage of manpower in coastal counties, resulting in barren fields and displacement of people...... The old minister is the commander of the three yas for His Majesty, and he only trains the soldiers of the world! In this matter of employing people, the Privy Council also has the Ministry of War......"

When Zhao Ji heard this, he immediately understood, this was someone pinching Gao Yu's pigtails again.

I don't need to have any ability from the chief officer in charge of the three yas, just be obedient! It is not allowed to directly interfere in key points such as the front secretary of the palace, the front guard of the palace, and the palace gate envoy...... Although Gao Yu is a waste, he is his most trusted confidant!

You have taken a fancy to this position of military attache and lieutenant, if you really make Gao Yu useless, you have to retrain a real person who really grasps real power...... In case it is a person who has the heart to fight for power and profit, and he is eye-catching with others behind the critical moment...... Can I sleep soundly at night?

"Mizhou Dengzhou Shouchen will apply for the ...... Gao Aiqing, what do you mean? Now the Forbidden Army of the Northland, the Western Army, and the Jingying Army are all preparing for war! I don't want to send elites to waste in that barren land, and I don't want Song Jiang and the like to do evil again on Jingdong East Road! ”

Gao Yu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister over there in the Privy Council Military Department does not dare to say anything...... But the old minister wants to promote a person, this person is good at management and knows how to train soldiers! Especially the training of the township to fight bandits and thieves, and has made many contributions! Within a year, he recruited homeless people with dozens of villagers and wiped out a gang of bandits entrenched in Daqingshan, a land of three roads! Now in Taoshan County, western Beijing, the road is not closed at night...... It's a talent! Since this person has not served in the forbidden army, it is necessary to pull out this person to serve His Majesty and protect the sea troubles of the Dengmi generation...... It's a good use! ”

Zhao Ji was stunned for a moment, the person Gao Yu said was ...... It seems to have mentioned it to myself. I just can't remember it for a while.

Liang Shicheng next to him said softly: "Your Majesty, the old slave remembered...... This person is Gao Dianshuai's confidant, and he ...... Charity Gambling Society ...... It seems that this person is the ...... who gave advice to Gao Dianshuai"

Zhao Ji suddenly understood, and laughed a few times...... This is a high price, forget it, the gambling club has made up hundreds of thousands of silver to the inner court every year! It can be described as a good business, this high-ranking henchman......

"Oh? Is there such a talent in the countryside? What is his origin? What is your position in Taoshan County now?"

Gao Yu's old face turned red, and he bowed down and replied: "Your Majesty is well-read and has a strong memory, and you still remember such a little person...... This person's name is Song Wen, and he is just twenty years old! Born in the market, he has no fame, but he is also smart and skilled in martial arts. Now in Taoshan County, he has captured Daqingshan, the thief's nest, and built a military village from scratch to train and recruit 500 township soldiers, and also serves as the patrol inspector of Taoshan County. ”

Zhao Ji was stunned...... "market figures...... It's a pity to be so young. It's just that there is no need to take out such a trivial matter and talk about it carefully, Liang Daban! ”

"The old slave is here!"

"You ask the Ministry of War to find a suitable position and report it to the Privy Council...... Gao Aiqing is virtuous and does not avoid relatives, this heart is commendable! However, border troubles are a trivial matter after all...... Now Tong Guan is advancing in the south of the Yangtze River, and the chief of the Fang Lab thief is close at hand! When the Jiangnan army returns, Gao Aiqing has to do a good job of camping and rewarding the whole army! There is also the elite of the Jingying Forbidden Army...... The remaining men and horses of the Western Army must be guarded against Western Xia and cannot be moved lightly, and the swords, guns, and equipment of 500,000 horses and horses will be high if something goes wrong with the army's baggage...... I will never spare you! ”

Gao Yu hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "The old minister is panicked, and he must do his best to arrange all the things for the army!" I don't dare to delay His Majesty's eternal achievement of recovering the clouds......"

"You know how important it is, and ...... The Manichaean demons made chaos and used sky lanterns to deceive people's hearts and set fires, and you said that someone could crack it...... How's this going? ”

Gao Yu replied: "I was about to tell Your Majesty that this matter has been completed!" A horse Taoist who has traveled the world in casual cultivation claims to have cracked the sky lantern! Lao Chen found this person and asked him to try out a ...... It's really done. ”

"Oh? Well done! You can choose an auspicious day, use this thing to subdue the market message, the Great Song Dynasty is unshakable! ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister originally wanted to wait for Tong Guan Tong Guogong to exterminate Fang La's anti-thief triumphant, and use this thing to congratulate Your Majesty! To be the world of audio-visual! ”

"Hahaha...... Not bad! I don't need to see the suspicious, then Song Wen will reward a Mizhou soldier and horse commander! If the army goes on a northern expedition, he can defend the coastal defense and stabilize the place! It can also be regarded as a merit, if you can suppress bandits and make meritorious contributions...... Wait and grab again! It's a pity, if you have a famous background and can be at such an age, you can settle down and train the township...... It's not impossible to give a group practice! ”

Gao Yu knew that this sky lantern incident had simply become Zhao Ji's heart disease...... That day scared him so much that he almost lost his old face! The guards in front of the palace who saw the emperor's embarrassed appearance that day are now all assigned to the Beijing camp and are ready to be sent to the battlefield......

His own trick can be said to have hit Zhao Ji's itch, but it's just ...... After all, he is a military attaché. Song Wen sent this Ma Dao man...... The fact that he claimed to be able to crack the sky lantern did make Gao Yu wonder if Song Wen was involved in the Bianliang fire, but Gao Yu couldn't figure out Song Wen's motives.

Gao Yu got up and thanked the emperor, and then asked, "Your Majesty, can you show me when the sky lantern will be lit?"

Zhao Ji frowned: "It's just past the New Year's Day, and when Tong Aiqing returns victoriously, it will be March, and it will be set on the fifteenth day of the first month!" However, there must be no mistakes...... Otherwise, I will never spare you! ”

Gao Yu hurriedly bowed and saluted: "The old minister understands that his majesty's interest will not be lost!"
