Chapter Ninety-One: Meddling
"The 2,641 people of the Left Guard Forward Battalion have all arrived."
"Nine hundred and twelve people from the crossbow battalion have all arrived."
"...... by the base camp"
"The ...... led by the general of the palace, Miao Yuan"
"The ...... led by the general of the palace, Chen Yi"
"Right Guard ......"
"The Rider ...... Alien Commander"
"Youzhou Turquoise Governor ......"
"Riding the Governor ......"
Outside the Ximing Gate of Luoyang, Zhang Fang's hometown, a large army gathered.
Shao Xun stood on the high platform, waited quietly for a while, and said, "Roll call according to the book." ”
The order was given quickly.
In the midst of the wind and snow, the sergeants were a little noisy.
Some people subconsciously raise their hands to block the snowflakes that blow on their faces.
Some put spears at their feet and began to rub their hands together and complain.
The officers had a dull face and shouted loudly, and it took a lot of rectification to suppress the commotion.
Shao Xun watched silently.
These soldiers are really a bit bad.
He remembered that during the Anshi Rebellion, one day An Lushan went to Tian Chenghe's army on a whim to check the camp late at night.
At the command, the sergeant who had fallen asleep quickly got up, put on his armor and armed himself, and stood solemnly in the snow for a long time, without any noise. According to the roll call, there is no shortage of one, and all of them are complete.
This is the army, and this is the key reason why An Fatzi can fight all the way to Luoyang and Chang'an.
The gap between soldiers and soldiers is sometimes bigger than that between people and dogs, and this is something that many people subconsciously ignore.
"It seems that the position of candidate in the Northern Army should be given to Xian." Liu Mo looked at it for a long time, and finally just smiled bitterly.
The commander of the forbidden army has been changed twice in three days, and he has only been in office for a few days, so it is not his responsibility to be reasonable, but looking at the situation in front of him, he also knows that he can't straighten out the forbidden army.
More than half of them are newcomers, and there is a shortage of qualified lower-level generals, and his family knows his own affairs, so he really has no way to adjust, so it is better to abdicate and make way for Xian.
"In the Northern Army, there is a heavy weight of the three military regulations, and important ministers must be appointed, and Liu Gong must not shirk." Shao Xun said.
Liu Mo sighed, arched his hand, and didn't say anything.
Last year, when the Huns entered the Kou, he commanded the battle, and the outcome was very bleak. This will look at the soldiers of the forbidden army with a look of birds with lax military discipline, and they will be even more disappointed, and they will not do it directly.
Shao Xun was also a little disappointed in these people.
He sent more than a dozen generals to lead the troops in the left guard, some of whom died in battle, and some of whom are still there. Now, it seems, it didn't work out very well.
The environment really affects people.
Or there are too few people sent, only the chief officer, no team, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and the rectification of military discipline is not an order from the chief officer, and people are needed to carry it out after all.
If people can't do it, they can't carry it out, or they will be out of shape.
Wang Yan listened to the conversation between the two and nodded secretly.
Quan Zhong is still sober and knows what step he can and can't do.
If he gets his hands on this position in the Northern Army, Chang'an, Jianye, and Jingzhou will immediately look sideways, and the situation will develop in an uncontrollable direction.
Moreover, the lieutenant in the northern army is considered a court official, and he must participate in the court meeting.
With his cautious look, did he dare to participate in the court meeting without controlling Miyagi?
It's just that he can't replace the guards and palace people around the Son of Heaven, this thing King Zong did, he Wang Yan also did it reluctantly, but Shao Xun couldn't do it.
The roll call was still being taken, and after each count, someone reported the number and compared it with the roster.
Shao Xun continued: "The forbidden army still has to be cleaned up, not to be able to defeat the thieves in battle, but at least to be able to rely on the camp and the city to hold on. After more than a year of such a purging, it is enough. Today's roll call, those who have not arrived at the three calls, if there is no reason, will be beheaded. ”
The generals of the forbidden army listened with mixed expressions.
The generals who had followed Shao Xun for a long time were excited, they had long wanted to do this, but every time they wanted to do it in the past, there was resistance from top to bottom, and even caused riots.
The old forbidden army officers, homeless leaders, and beggars who were not familiar with Shao Xun had a difficult face. It's not that I don't want to, but it's hard to do.
Fortunately, today there are important ministers of the imperial court, silver spear army, and volunteer army, and it is not a problem to strictly enforce military law.
Shao Xun didn't care what they thought.
To be honest, he doesn't look down on this year's forbidden army at all, and he doesn't want this kind of army, and even the idea of annexation is dispensable. He was completely helping Liu Mo and others to clean up the troops and improve their combat effectiveness.
The roll call was quickly completed off the field.
The officers began to shout the names of those who did not arrive, and those who did not arrive recorded all of them, and then led the soldiers to arrest them.
There was a commotion in the field.
"Kill!" The silver-speared sergeant struck the ground with the barrel of his spear and roared in unison.
The commotion quickly subsided.
Shao Xun retracted his gaze, walked a few steps out with Wang Yan, and said in a low voice: "I met the Son of Heaven yesterday, and there should be no major incident in a few months. However, things have changed, and the Son of Heaven may not be ready to move. In this world, we can't stand the chaos. ”
"It doesn't matter." Wang Yan said: "After the defeat of Xin'an, there should be no one to accompany the Son of Heaven anymore. ”
"Can you punish a few people who give advice to the Son of Heaven?" Shao Xun asked.
"It's better not to." Wang Yan looked at Shao Xun's gaze with a bit of scrutiny, and only heard him say: "It's not a big deal for you to purge the forbidden army. Anyway, Luoyang is already like this, and many people are afraid that they are begging you to rectify it. But the matter of punishing the minister, so what the king of the East China Sea did is quite a big danger, and you can't do it. ”
Shao Xun nodded, not insisting.
Now there are some courtiers who want him to fully preside over the government, but to what extent they support him, how strong his desire is, and how great his overall influence is, he still needs to be further observed and tested.
"Then let's get rid of the official." Shao Xun said: "Make up a crime and send them away." ”
Wang Yan frowned, obviously he didn't want to do this kind of thing, but finally nodded.
"The position of Situ is vacant, and Shangshu makes Liu Gong (Liu Jun) work hard, or can he be appointed as Situ?" Shao Xun suggested again.
"Who's going to be Shang Shuling?"
"Yu Shizhong (Yu Min) can also."
"After Yu Zi is gone, who will take over the position of the servant?"
"Lu Yuzhou is resolute and dignified, strong and quick, and can serve as a servant."
"Who is in charge of Yuzhou's affairs?"

"The study of Yang Jian runs through the Xuan, and there is an elegant style, which can be in Yuzhou."
"That's all?"
"That's all."
Wang Yan bowed slightly.
After Shao Xun turned around, his eyes stared at him for a long time.
This must be the first time, right?
For the first time, he installed his own people in a key position in the DPRK.
A Shangshuling and a waiter are a bit eye-catching, but they maintain proportion.
Wang Yan felt that his value was slowly decreasing. In a few years, perhaps he will not even be able to keep his status as a political ally, and he will be in a state of obvious dependence.
But Shao Xun seems to do this kind of thing naturally, and it is inconceivable not to do it.
After taking over the three cities of Heyang, his influence on the Luoyang court was greatly enhanced, and he no longer blindly avoided his attitude.
Yu Min and Lu Zhi are just the beginning, and in the end, they probably want to turn the main court officials into their own people.
From cooperation to dependence, alas! Wang Yan was slightly disappointed.
"Spare your life!"
"I don't dare to do it again."
"After entering the camp, no one told me that the forbidden army was so strict."
"Whoever kills me will not die well!"
The sergeants who were absent from the roll call were escorted over one after another, kneeling on the ground and crying for their father and mother.
"Shut up. The law and discipline in the army, the drums are beaten, and those who do not come to the three calls will be immediately killed. There's nothing to say, chop! ”
The order was given, and the knife and axe hand did not talk nonsense, and directly cut off the heads of the soldiers who violated military discipline, and then sent them to the high platform and handed them over to Liu Mo, the lieutenant of the Northern Army, for inspection.
Liu Mo didn't even look at it, waved his hand, and said, "Hang your head to set an example." ”
Neither Shao nor Wang spoke.
Especially Shao Xun, who killed a lot of people, his heart had already hardened, and he beheaded more than 200 people in an instant, which seemed to him as simple as eating and drinking.
"If there is any outstanding reward in the camps of the forbidden army, make up a little as appropriate." He said.
Wang Yan has no opinion.
In fact, there is no need to distribute much, just one or two pieces of cloth per person, which mainly plays a role in stabilizing the morale of the army.
"Are there people from Jianye and Chang'an in the DPRK?" Shao Xun asked again.
Wang Yan looked at him and smiled without saying a word.
Shao Xun understood.
Just like Wang Yan cooperated with him, there must be officials in the DPRK and China who cooperated with the foreign vassal Fang Bo, and even cooperated with both him and Sima Rui and others, which is normal.
If you didn't purge the court, that's the result.
And cleaning the court is something he can't do, and he can't do it, he can only dig the corners of the wall little by little, exchanging time for space.
Wang Yan's younger brother Wang Daoke is in Jianye, is there no political transaction between them at all? How can it be!
It can even be said that most of the resources of the Langya Wang clan have been invested on Sima Rui's side, after all, hundreds of Wang clan's children have moved over.
Wang Yan was forced to cooperate with him entirely because he was close at hand.
The two of them take what they need, and they can't talk about who owes whom.
It's just that with the development of the situation, one side of the cooperation is getting stronger and stronger, and the other side has fewer and fewer chips in its hands, and this relationship will turn sourer sooner or later.
Shao Xun didn't intend to hide this change.
He is a martial artist, and he doesn't disdain to do that kind of selfish deed, everything is on the table, and Wang Yan should feel it today.
"One more thing." Shao Xun turned around, looked at Wang Yan, and said, "The matter of Xuzhou, can it be decided?" ”
"Xun Taizhang invited himself to be the assassin of Xuzhou, and the court thought it was okay, and he also led the military of Xuzhou." Wang Yan said.
"Well, so be it." Shao Xun said.
Because of his opposition, Zu Ti failed to become the assassin of Xuzhou, so he went to Jianye and served as a military advisor in the Sima Rui shogunate.
For a year, the two chief officials in Xuzhou have been vacant.
The governor is down, because there are no soldiers left in Xuzhou, but the assassin history can't be without it forever.
Xun Group's choice to leave the Luoyang court and leave the town of Xuzhou should be his own will.
He can't talk about anyone, he can be regarded as a neutral, whether Shao Xun or Sima Rui can accept it, the imperial court appointed him as the assassin of Xuzhou, obviously after some consideration.
"The affairs of the world are all here." Shao Xun said: "The Huns have not been destroyed, the court should be quiet, and there must be no more relatives and enemies." In the past few years, the situation in Henan has been improving step by step, and after the three cities of Heyang are built, they can even counterattack Hanoi and threaten to merge the state. All the princes in the court are all talented for a while, and the small wealth and food are all in Henan, which is more important and which is more important, and it should be known. ”
Wang Yan couldn't help but glance at Shao Xun.
This person is only twenty-six years old, but he speaks with such a natural attitude.
To put it nicely, this is called being confident and looking at all directions.
To put it mildly, this is called sudden power and getting carried away.
Wang Yan recalled it carefully.
From beginning to end, this person seems to have no fear of the family background and the Son of Heaven deep into the bone marrow, which is actually incredible.
Even if he manipulated the Son of Heaven in his hands like Cao Mengde, he still had a little awe of the imperial power in his heart.
This person has nothing at all, and he doesn't look like a native of Jin.
The soldiers he led have become more and more fierce and domineering in recent years.
Wang Yan knows very well that the atmosphere of the army is closely related to the personal temperament and style of the commander-in-chief.
Whatever the Lord will be, He will bring into the army.
Looking at the big from the small, you can know that Shao Xun is a person.
Wang Yan's face was silent, his heart was churning, and his thoughts had drifted far away.
It seems that the unruly and arrogant he has shown in the past ten years is not all acting, and he is likely to be such a person.
God-man God, Luoshui rumors, Taibai Xingjing......
Wang Yan sighed secretly, he was only twenty-five or sixteen years old.
Sometimes, age is a huge advantage.
