370 Xu Guozhong's actions crowned Chen Mo as a lieutenant
Lonan.
Since Xu Guozhong coerced the Son of Heaven to move the capital to Luonan, the Chaogang has been in a slump, especially the Queen Mother's sudden enlistment, which is too bizarre, all the spearheads are pointed at Xu Guozhong, the impact is too bad, and the matter after the abolition of the Son of Heaven has made the people and ministers of Luonan very disgusted with Xu Guozhong.
How big of an impact is this?
Let's talk about the grain first, the people of the following families will not take the initiative to pay it at all, and when you send the army to forcibly collect it, the family and the rich businessmen will say that there is no food, and they will not believe it and let you search it, they will hide the grain, of course they can't find it, there is really no way, and they will threaten each other with their lives, so they will symbolically hand over a little.
This is the Maison.
If the family does not pay the grain, how much grain can you collect by squeezing the people? There will also be public resentment.
Let's talk about soldiers and horses.
In the last battle of King Qin, although King Huai was defeated, it severely damaged Xu Guozhong, so that most of the soldiers and horses under his command were killed and wounded, and after coming to Luonan, he naturally had to recruit troops to replenish the army, but the people would not take the initiative to join the army at all, and Xu Guozhong could only catch strong men.
As a result, there were constant rebellions around Huainan, bandits were rampant, and they often plundered the government's convoys.
Xu Guozhong knew that doing so was tantamount to drinking to quench his thirst.
I also know that if the program and order of the imperial court are not properly organized, all kinds of evil and unhealthy trends will be forced out, leading to chaos and crisis in the world.
But he can't help it, money, food, soldiers and horses are his foothold, even if it is to kill chickens and eggs, he has to do this.
Otherwise, without food, the army will be in trouble.
And without an army, there are too many people who will tear him apart, and he will die without a place to bury.
Because of this, for more than two years, Xu Guozhong has been cowering in Luonan and missing many opportunities to recapture Tianchuan.
The current Luonan is a tower that is about to collapse, because of his support, this tower has not fallen, if he leaves, this tower will collapse in an instant.
And not only outsiders are making trouble for him, but the generals under him, his staff, and even his eldest son are all looking for trouble for him.
A group of people, led by his son, have always wanted to support him as emperor.
His eldest son, Xu Yao, even said: "The military and politics are in the hands of my father, and my father knows everything in his words, but there is still a person on his head, and everything must be approved by that person in the end, even if it is just a formality." The Great Song Dynasty's qi has been exhausted, and his father shoulders to resist the country's society, and he should go further. ”
Xu Guozhong not only sternly refused, but also slapped Xu Yao in front of everyone, saying that whoever wants to mention the matter of being the emperor again will not be spared.
said that he was born as a courtier of the Great Song Dynasty, and died as a ghost of the Great Song Dynasty.
The respect of the Ninety-Five, above 10,000,000 people.
To say that Xu Guozhong did not think about the throne, it is impossible.
But he didn't dare.
He has been up and down in the sea for decades, from the seven-rank petty official all the way to the position of the prime minister, one person under the ten thousand people, he knows that if he obeys his son's instigation, he will kill the emperor and become the emperor.
The heroes of the world will definitely raise troops to punish them, and the scale is definitely far greater than the army of King Qinwang of Huai last time.
With the current situation, Xu Guozhong has no confidence to carry it again.
In the study, Xu Guozhong looked at the mountains of folding documents on the table in front of him, and suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
The only Heavenly Master Army that can share the pressure on himself has now been exterminated, Chen Mo is only a middle-grade martial artist, and there are not as many soldiers and horses as the Heavenly Master Army, so I don't know how long it can last.
Luo Nan's mess has not been solved, and he faced King Huai again
Thinking of this, Xu Guozhong sighed in his heart, a little gloomy.
At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door, and after a while, the general Ashimori appeared.
Looking at Lu Sheng, Xu Guozhong's heart couldn't help but sink slightly, he has received a lot of news recently, those big families in Luonan are quietly interacting with Lu Sheng, and even his henchmen and staff, many of them are very close to Lu Sheng.
And his physical strength and energy are not as good as a year after year, and he is afraid that he will be less strong, and he also feels that he can't suppress the other party.
Lu Sheng had a smile on his face, and as soon as he entered the door, he said excitedly: "Xiangye, good news, good news."
"The Heavenly Master Army has been wiped out, and King Huai has occupied Fengzhou, what good news can there be." Xu Guozhong didn't take it to heart for the time being.
"It's great news" Lu Sheng came to him and said: "The Wu family and Chen Mo are married, when the King of Huai attacked Qingzhou, Chen Mo led the army to raid Huaizhou, captured Huainan and Wuguan in a row, killed the Wei general Liang Xuan, and now captured Huaizhou.
The most important thing is that the Qiang people in Xiliang and Yang Xian in Shu Mansion have announced an alliance with Chen Mo, and now King Huai is a grasshopper after the autumn, and he can't jump for a few days. ”
"What?!"
After listening to Lu Sheng's words, Xu Guozhong stood up suddenly, could not hide his consternation, and said in a deep voice: "Liang Xuan is a high-grade martial artist, and he is a veteran of the DPRK and China, and Wuguan is known as one of the five major passes of the Great Song Dynasty, how did Chen Mo take Wuguan and kill Liang Xuan?" ”
"It seems that a military general in Huaizhou took refuge in Chen Mo, and after deceiving Huainan County, he took it by attacking back and forth, making the defenders in Wuguan insufficient, and Chen Mo is even more pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, he is not a middle-grade martial artist at all, but a three-grade divine realm, according to the news that came back, the divine power is still a round of purple sun." Lu Sheng said slowly.
Hearing this, Xu Guozhong's pupils shrank, and he was stunned again.
"Three products? He is only twenty years old, how can he be a third-grade martial artist, did you hear it wrong? Xu Guozhong couldn't believe it.
"Xiangye, how could I lie to you, now the news has spread." Lu Sheng Road.
Xu Guozhong slowed down for a while, used it to digest the news he heard, and said: "This is indeed good news, prepare quickly, and the prime minister wants to enter the palace to ask for credit for the Marquis of Pingting County." ”
"No." Lu Sheng said, but did not leave.
"Anything else?" Xu Guozhong said.
"Back to Xiangye, there is indeed something."
Lu Sheng said that he was going to trouble Xu Guozhong, he said that he had recently made a friend, and hoped that when Xu Guozhong entered the palace, His Majesty would make his friend an official.
Xu Guozhong's brows immediately furrowed, but seeing Lu Sheng's request, he still agreed.
Who is Xu Guozhong, after entering the palace, he directly asked the Son of Heaven to give Chen Mo another concurrently serving as the Taishou of Huaizhou, in charge of the military and political affairs of Huaizhou, and crowned the title of Taiwei.
Tai Lieutenant, this is the highest military commander in the Great Song Dynasty, the head of the military attaché in the world, and the commander of the world's soldiers and horses.
Xu Guozhong's move was naturally to pour a spoonful of oil on the fire of Huaizhou, so that Chen Mo was in charge of Huaizhou, which can be said to be justified.
Not only that, but the position of Tai Lieutenant is made by a twenty-year-old hairy boy, which can also push Chen Mo to the forefront and make himself stable for a longer time.
After that, Xu Guozhong thought about it, and gave Yang Xian and Dong Wei, the ruler of the Qiang people, also an additional official.
