Chapter 80: Yue Fei
After throwing the whole plan to Master Tong, Wang Yue no longer cares......
How can he be qualified to participate in this level of program.
This is at the level of national strategy.
The real implementation of this plan means that the treasury invests tens of millions of dollars, recruits hundreds of thousands of people, and mobilizes the strength of the entire empire, not to mention that Wang Yue is not qualified to participate, even Tong Taishi also said that it does not count, and the entire imperial court must be intrigued for many years, the major political groups are constantly playing, and various interests are bargaining.
Even the great painters themselves did not dare to make rash decisions.
Wang Yue, a simple-minded fighter, should stay honestly!
Then Wang Yue and his entourage continued to Beijing.
And Cai You fell ill after falling into the water, and it is estimated that he was overly frightened, so he said that he was also sick and returned to Beijing, because now Cai Shaobao is a little afraid of water, so they went south by land, that is, to take the Zhending route.
The officials along the way were extremely enthusiastic and attentive.
Of course, it is to serve Cai You.
Definitely.
"Does Cai Shaobao not like this person?"
Wang Yue stood at the back of the crowd and looked at the front with a deep expression.
There are really sure that the local officials are greeting Cai You, and the prefect led by him is a little disappointing, and Cai Shaobao is polite, but it is obvious that the degree of bending is far from enough, you must know that those officials along the way are groveling and almost lie down and lick his boots.
"Liu Tao was originally against Cai."
Liu Jian said in a low voice.
"These soldiers of his still look good!"
Wang Yue looked at the soldiers lined up on both sides and said.
Because of the previous fiasco on the front line, all parts of Hebei began to recruit troops and horses just in case, and Zhending was naturally the capital of Hebei West Road, but most of the soldiers recruited by those states and counties along the way were full, and they were not even soldiers and weapons, and they were more beggars than soldiers. In fact, they are indeed beggars, and those who really have food and drink will be recruited, they are all beggars and homeless people, and the real purpose of those officials recruiting soldiers is not defense.
The army at the front was defeated, and of course they fled as fast as they could.
Recruiting troops is just making money by making a name.
Take out the tax revenue of the government, force the local gentry to donate, and by the way, force the common people to donate, and then hire some beggars casually when the money is collected, take care of two meals a day, distribute some flags and sticks, etc., and look at it as an army.
Really recruit strong men who dare to fight, and equip them with infantry armor and sophisticated weapons......
That money is all spent on them, what do the officials put in their pockets?
But Liu Tao is obviously really doing it.
Although this army is not well-equipped, at least the armor is complete, the weapons are neat, and the morale is not too bad, and the physique is okay, at least it can wear armor and line up neatly for a long time in this midsummer season.
"He is not a weak scholar, he was born in Jinshi, but he is not one who is pampered, many years ago he was already a gentleman of the Yanyan Road, a serious border town marshal, and he also really led troops to fight in the northwest and even defeated the Western Xia, but he has only been in discord with Cai Xiang to this day."
Liu Jian said.
At this moment, a cavalryman from behind squeezed in......
"General, our people have been arrested by the local officers and soldiers."
He whispered.
"What did you do?"
Wang Yue said suspiciously.
"Before, the general ordered the brothers to move freely, and it happened that the weather was hot and sweaty, so the brothers took a bath in the river, and when they met a few women washing clothes, one of the brothers also laughed a little, but they said that the brothers were molesting them, and they called a team of local officers and soldiers to arrest them."
The cavalryman said.
"And then you were caught?
Didn't I say that I don't care about some of your little things, but you can't let people catch them, and if you get caught, it's not easy to deal with them.
In other words, the local officers and soldiers can catch our brothers? ”
Wang Yue said with some surprise.
It must be true to molest women, these guys are not good birds, don't talk about this kind of thing with Guo Yaoshi, what kind of murder, arson, robbing women, killing people and so on, such a long march in the summer to stop and find a river to plunge into it to cool off, and then see a woman washing clothes on the shore, for a while, there is a surplus of hormones to say a few words that are immoral, this is indeed inevitable.
This is understandable.
Wang Yue's requirements for them are very clear, they can't take actual action, otherwise he will also cut people.
But this kind of thing doesn't matter, even if he himself is according to the standards of this era, in fact, he often molests women.
But can't be caught.
"Back to the general, those officers and soldiers are not worth mentioning, the brothers can deal with it with their bare hands, but the officer headed by him is a good hand, more than a dozen of our brothers did not defeat the siege, but he put down seven, three brothers escaped to find the high commander, at this time the high commander is taking the brothers to stop them, but these officers and soldiers are very faceless, must be brought back to the Ming Governor's Mansion to say."
The cavalryman said.
"Let's go, let's see!"
Wang Yue said.
It's not really a big deal.
Because Chang Shengjun is still subordinate to the Xuanfu Division, even if he commits a crime at the local level, he has no right to deal with it if he is taken by the local government, and he has to hand it over to the Xuanfu Division according to the procedure.
But Cai You is here.
So it's nothing more than Liu Tao looking for Cai You, and Cai You will hand it over to Wang Yue to deal with himself.
Even if Wang Yue can't do it, Liu Tao has no tricks in the procedure, at most he will impeach him and Cai You, but there will definitely be no follow-up to this kind of trivial matter.
At this time, the previous literati were still talking nonsense, and Li Chuwen also joined the ranks of nonsense, it seems that the literati in the north and south are talking happily and have begun to chant poetry.
It doesn't look like it's going to be over for a while.
Wang Yue and Liu Jian turned around directly and left with the cavalry, and soon they went out of the city to the moat in the west of the city.
However, at this time, it was obvious that there was a bit of a commotion, although those mounted cavalry did not wear a full set of equipment, but they had already carried cone guns and rode horses, surrounding the local soldiers, plus those ordinary people who watched the excitement, the whole scene gathered two or three thousand people.
Several officials also arrived, but were conspicuously afraid to step forward.
The local officer was undaunted, and led dozens of his men to protect the thirteen bound Changsheng soldiers in the middle, and was calm in the midst of the five hundred wolf-like cavalry around him.
Gao Jie, who was originally confronting him, hurriedly stepped forward when he saw Wang Yue coming over.
"Is it verbal flirtat?"
Wang Yue asked.
"One of the brothers showed himself to the women."
Gao Jie said somewhat ashamedly.
Needless to say, what to reveal.
"Uh, tell the brothers, whoever does this kind of thing in the future, I will cut him directly, Ma, he is not ashamed, I am ashamed!"
Wang Yue said.
After speaking, he and Liu Jian urged him to step forward.
The officer looked at him warily, the man was not very old, that is, about twenty, with a strong body and a rather handsome appearance, and in his hand he had a conical gun, but it was not of wood but iron.
This thing is not a very rare weapon in the Song army, in fact, there are many officers who use iron cone guns, Song Renzong made 15,000 iron cone guns a year, in addition to the composite handle of the iron wire winding, also called the iron plate lance, but the iron cone gun also has a difference in weight. Similarly, there are whips, all of which are selected in different weights according to their respective habits, such as more than a dozen catties of iron maces, and a few catties of weight, and there are 0.8 kilograms of iron maces in the Qing Dynasty!
Uh, or can it be called fire chopsticks?
"Doctor Youwu, the defense envoy of Taozhou, and Wang Yue, the commander of the Changsheng army."
Wang Yue rode a horse and looked at him condescendingly and said.
"I really dare to fight, and the army will see Yue Fei defend."
The latter saluted.
