Chapter 151: Exchange of Interests

Mizhi only set off from Wen County in August, all the way to the west, crossed Wangwu Mountain, and then crossed the Yellow River in Hedong County and entered Fengyi County.

When I finally arrived in Chang'an, it was around the Double Ninth Festival.

There are many new graves on the hill on the outskirts of Chang'an, and it is creepy to look at densely.

He paused for a moment at the bottom of the hill.

There is not a trace of clouds in the sky, and among the pines and cypresses on the plateau, the autumn wind is blowing, sending bursts of whimpering.

He shuddered suddenly, and became more and more confused about the road ahead.

Sikong was polite to him, but a little too polite.

When the staff said something important, they would glance at him out of the corner of their eyes, as if they didn't want it to reach his ears.

Mi Nao is a sharp-minded person, and he can feel the change in the atmosphere as if nothing is there.

He knew he was being watched.

Alas!

Mi Zhi sighed, collected his mood, and soon came to the camp of Bashang.

Shao Xun also organized grain transshipment in Chang'an City.

Kinmenwu has already received the second batch of grain.

Two transfers before and after, removing the loss on the way, a total of 190,000 grains were obtained.

The third shipment has already started, and the transportation of the fourth batch of grain will begin at the end of September.

In his spare time, he also received messages from all sides.

Taoist priest Fan Changsheng went down the mountain, and Li Xiong of Chengdu treated him very politely, taking it as "the master of heaven and earth at four o'clock and eight festivals" - another official position that hangs the sky.

Li Xiong was officially proclaimed emperor, the country name was "Dacheng", changed to Yuan Yanping, and granted amnesty to the world.

This regime in Shuzhong, because of its geographical isolation, seems to have stabilized.

Since the Great Earthquake in the Western Han Dynasty, the Han River has been diverted, and no one has been able to repeat the old story of "Darkness Chencang" since then. If you want to transport the money and grain out of Shuzhong, you can't use cheap water transportation like Liu Bang, so you can only take the long and rugged mountain road.

The difficulty of Shu Road is difficult to go to the blue sky, and it is estimated that seven or eight cars will be lost on the road of ten carts of grain, which is evident from Zhuge Liang's extremely difficult logistics.

In this place, it is difficult for others to get in, and it is also difficult for the people inside to get out, so it is estimated that it is like that.

Because of the "meritorious" expedition to the west, the Son of Heaven and Sima Yue were the Taifu and recorded the Shangshu.

and with Fan Yang Wang Sima Yu as the governor of Jizhou, Zhenye.

Ma Mo of Pyeongchang Company really couldn't handle the mess in Hebei, so he patted his ass and left, went to Xuchang to take office, and continued to fool around in a more comfortable place.

Sima Yue officially established the Taifu Shogunate, with Wang Yan as the military secretary, and Uncle Cao completely stood aside.

The vast majority of the new shogunate were scholars who had been recruited in Xuzhou, or who fled to Xuzhou with him after the Battle of Dangyin.

For example, the military consultant and the wine Yu Yu, the chief bookkeeper Guo Xiang and others, do not do their jobs properly, and indulge in alcohol and festivals. The former also makes a lot of money, and the latter has an unbearable character and plays with power. But because they were famous and praised by scholars, Sima Yue valued them very much.

What the hell is it!

Shao Xun also heard the news that Sima Yue was going to rebuild the forbidden army.

The Luoyang Chinese Army was originally divided into two parts, the Guards and the Yamen Army, the former was stationed in the city, and the latter was stationed in the suburbs of Luoyang.

The Su Guard Army is also known as the Seven Armies of the Su Guard, namely the Left Guard, the Right Guard, the Left Army, the Right Army, the Front Army, the Rear Army, and the Seven Battalions of the Cavalry.

Today's Luoyang Chinese army has only more than 30,000 people, which are divided into three branches: left guard, right guard, and Xiao cavalry.

Sima Yue's reconstruction of the left army and the right army seemed to be restoring the establishment of the Chinese army, but in fact he was arranging his own people.

He'sβ€”he's still scared after all.

Shao Xun laughed, are the left army and the right army useful?

However, from Sima Yue's point of view, this is normal.

It is impossible for the left guard, the right guard, and the cavalry to openly oppose him at this stage, he doesn't need the left army and the right army to fight more, anyway, he can protect him.

If there are no reliable soldiers, will they continue to wander around Wenxian County, and they can't go back home?

And just as he was thinking about the origin of the left army and the right army, Mi Huang and Mi Zhi's father and son came to Xiaoyao Garden.

The three saluted each other, then sat down separately.

"Taifu has already ordered the withdrawal of troops. By the end of September at the latest, everyone will be evacuated. Mi Huang's expression has improved a little recently, and it seems that after some negotiations, he has not been seriously responsible, and he has even been comforted by Sima Yue.

So the question is, why didn't Taifu send an envoy to comfort me? Facts aside, didn't I have no credit for killing five thousand Xianbei cavalry?

"Isn't Du Du Mo promoted?" Shao Xun paid attention to Mi Huang's face and asked.

Mi Huang squeezed out a little smile and said, "Captain Sili, is it considered a promotion?" ”

"If the official character is high, of course it can be regarded as a promotion." Shao Xun said with a smile.

However, the position of real power is gone.

Although Captain Sili has soldiers, there are not many, and there are not even many people under the captain. The latter manages the long transportation line, and there are still thousands of soldiers and horses, and the maximum number of lieutenants is 3,000, which may not be enough.

"Who did Hongnong Taishou give to?" Shao Xun asked.

"Hongnong ordered Pei Hui (yi) to be promoted to Taishou." Mi Huang said: "Your dock forts, do it yourself, I can't take care of it." ”

"Oh." Shao Xun replied nonchalantly.

Well? Mi Huang saw that Shao Xun was not panicked at all, and was suddenly a little surprised. Then I thought of the way the two of them approached Concubine Pei back then, and suddenly realized, it seems that Xiao Langjun has gone farther than him on this road, and the relationship with Wenxi Pei's family is not simple.

"What is Taifu going to do with me?" After a moment of silence, Shao Xun asked.

Mi Huang took a deep breath, there are some things that you have to face after all.

I only heard him say: "Taifu is slowly improving the establishment of the Luoyang Chinese Army. ”

Shao Xun nodded, signaling that he knew.

"The Yamen Army will also be rebuilt." Mi Huang said: "Taifu wants you to take charge of the Yamen Army. ”

"How many battalions are there in the Yamen Army?"

"The Yamen Army is a grass creation, just a battalion of your department."

"How many?"

"The old department led by the general in your palace has more than 5,000 people."

Shao Xun was silent for a long time.

Mi Huang waited quietly for him to respond.

Mi Zhi held his breath and stared, and goosebumps all over his body.

In the Easy Garden, there are 600 warriors of the Silver Spear Army with helmets and armor. In the big camp, there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. What happens if this person breaks out?

Sometimes, turning your face is just a matter of a moment.

"This is to drive me out of Luoyang!" Shao Xun suddenly slapped the case and shouted.

Mi Huang frowned, but there was no reaction.

Mi Zhi was startled and almost screamed.

The warriors of the Silver Spear Army looked over one after another, and some even lowered their hands to the hilt of their swords at their waists.

"Taifu also allows you to take the position." After a moment of silence, Mi Huang said suddenly.

Shao Xun was angry and said, "Dudu, what kind of friendship do you and I have, and you are still hiding?" ”

He knew that Mi Huang was also on the orders of the Taifu to release benefits little by little.

If Shao Xun doesn't react violently, then the rest will be gone.

At the same time, he also sighed a little, what did Mi Huang say, he was too stupid and honest, and he was not completely disappointed in Sima Yue until now, and he was still doing things for him.

Sima Yue, the birdman, how can he de, there are people like Mi Huang, He Lun, and Wang Bing who are loyal - it is true that the three of them have average ability, but there is nothing to say about loyalty, and they can be entrusted to the back road.

"Taifu Xu Lingcai is the position of a general, supervising the construction of Guangchengyuan." Mi Huang continued.

This is a naked exchange of interests.

What's going on in Guangchengyuan, after a year, it's no longer a secret.

Sima Yue could indeed collude with Wang Yan and stop the project. Now that I have come up with it, I am actually using it as a bargaining chip to negotiate.

"I pushed the general a few times, but I still didn't push it off after all." Shao Xun turned his anger into joy and said with a smile.

"General Caiguan is the fifth grade, and it seems that he has only been promoted by one grade, but this step is not so simple." Mi Huang said earnestly.

In officialdom, there are always certain levels of official positions, which seem to be only one step away, but many people are difficult to cross throughout their lives.

For them, that's the ceiling.

Promotions don't happen all the time. Once you've touched the ceiling, no matter how much credit you've made, it's hard to go any further.

From the sixth rank of the palace general, promoted to the fifth rank of the general officer, I don't know how many people have been stopped by the leap of this grade.

The general of the material officer is at the same level as the county prince, the minister of state, and the history of the kingdom.

Leading the Yamen Army as a material officer general is a bit nondescript, but who made the Yamen Army only have more than 5,000 people? At the peak of the Luoyang Chinese Army, the Yamen Army had more than a dozen battalions with a total of more than 50,000 foot cavalry.

The Su Guards generally do not move, and the Yamen Army is the strategic reserve of the Western Jin Dynasty and a mobile combat force.

"Where is the Yamen Army?" Shao Xun asked.

"Where do you want to be tuned?" Mi Huang asked rhetorically.

Shao Xun groaned.

The Yamen Army is generally a suburban county outside the city of Luoyang, sometimes in Luoyang and Henan counties, and sometimes in Yanshi and other places.

"I'm always dangling in front of the Taifu, and I guess he also thinks it's an eyesore." Shao Xun laughed at himself: "Let me go to Liang County, far away, which is in line with Taifu's intentions." ”

Theoretically speaking, Liang County is also a suburban county.

But suburban counties are different from suburban counties. It's like the original station was in Tongzhou, near Beijing, and now you have gone to Yanqing, which is too "suburban" and too "village".

Mi Huang listened but did not object, obviously he knew that Sima Yue really didn't want to see Shao Xun.

Even, Sima Yue wanted to take Shao Xun further, go to Jiangdong or even Shuzhong to quell the chaos, and end up with Chen Min and Li Xiong, but he also knew that it was impossible.

"Liang County seems to be okay, Taifu should not object." Mi Huang thought about it for a while, nodded, and said, "It's right next to Guangcheng Yuan, so it's easier for you to come and go." ”

"Can I still go back to Luoyang?" Shao Xun asked with a smile.

Mi Huang glared at him and said, "No one is stopping you from going back to Luoyang." ”

"That's good." Shao Xun said: "If Guangchengyuan stops work one day, I will go back to Luoyang." ”

Mi Huang sighed.

The matter between Shao Xun and Taifu, he wrote a lot of letters, vigorously turned around, and bitterly stated the benefits and disadvantages, and finally had this result, which was actually very good.

But who understands his hard work?

Taifu didn't understand him, and Shao Xun didn't understand him, so it was ......

"Taifu has one more request." Mi Huang finally said: "If there is a war, the Yamen army will go out. ”

"Where's the war besides Koto?" Shao Xun asked.

Liu Bogen of Qingzhou was beheaded by the Xianbei cavalry who went south in Youzhou, and Wang Mi fled to the mountains and forests, not knowing what happened.

Hebei has been initially suppressed, and it is very calm on the surface.

Guanzhong was also flattened.

Shuzhong was subconsciously ignored by everyone.

For now, in addition to Jiangdong Chen Min, only the Hun Liu Yuan is still jumping.

After this year's events, Sima Yue at least superficially gained a certain prestige, and his enemies were all defeated.

This may be his confidence to return to Luoyang?

"Anyway, be careful." Mi Huang didn't answer Shao Xun directly, but said: "Now that all places are peaceful, there may be some people in the shogunate who will target you and treat you as the next enemy." If you leave Luoyang, those people may ask Taifu to mobilize soldiers and horses from Hebei, Yuzhou, and even Xuzhou......"

Speaking of which, Mi Huang won't talk about it.

Whether or not these people's slanders will come true, they are always a threat. Maybe Taifu himself has had this kind of thought, anyway, it's right to be careful.

"So Taifu is playing a delaying tactic?" Shao Xun asked.

Mi Huang shook his head and sighed, and said, "Taifu is not like this, you are still useful after all." ”

Has Hebei really been pacified? I'm afraid that even Taifu is not sure, otherwise, King Fan Yang would not have left the town of Yecheng.

The Xuchang soldiers still had combat effectiveness, and the Gongshi Fan and others were finally defeated under their encirclement and suppression.

But the situation on the ground is strange.

Although Sima Ying died, there were many people under his banner. If you press down one wave, another wave will arise, endlessly.

Maybe one day someone will have an incident again, who can say for sure?

Keep Shao Xun, and you can still dry these miscellaneous fish.

And as long as it is stable for a few years, Taifu should be able to collect the hearts of the forbidden army, right?

Mi Zhi didn't speak from beginning to end.

Today's meeting had a great impact on his soul.

It turned out that the nineteen-year-old general in front of him had already done such a big thing, so that the Taifu who was "in power over the world" had no choice but to "reason" with him.

It turns out that having soldiers in hand and influence in the forbidden army will get so many benefits.

The fame brought by Qing Tan seems to be gradually giving way to the knife handle.

His understanding of this world has unconsciously taken a big step forward.
