Chapter 131: Soldiers out of Shuiyun County
What is the way to be an official, even if Chu Yujia has never done it, but his father is Chu Qianwen after all, and his father-in-law is still the prime minister of the dynasty, and he also has many opinions of his own.
Sometimes, it is absolutely not okay to treat these subordinates of oneself badly, and it will definitely rise up a rebellious mentality, and if you don't do it, you will stab yourself in the back.
The villain is not afraid of power, and the spring breeze and rain are not effective for everyone.
This is the reality, others including the county guard Shao Liangping all think that Chu Yujia has just arrived, and it is the first time to govern a piece of land for the royal court, no matter how arrogant and arrogant he is in Yueling City, he should be more moderate in the early stage, and he will not come up and make drastic reforms.
After all, if he makes drastic reforms, he will lose the hearts of the people in the first place.
After losing the hearts of the people, even if you win the hearts of the people again, it is useless, after all, it is true that the dignified county guard wants to seek the welfare of the people, but someone has to do something for you.
But that wasn't Chu Yujia, and Chu Yujia didn't bother to stir up in that muddy pit, so he simply killed the most disobedient ones first.
As for what will happen next, then Zhao Kuan will naturally help him bear it.
Anyway, Chu Yujia himself has long been notorious, and once upon a time in Pingyang Mansion in order to catch assassins and kill those people, although on the one hand, he was solving the troubles for King Ye, and on the other hand, he was also telling everyone that he Chu Yujia was different from Chu Qianwen.
Chu Qianwen's iron horse swore that he would not move the people, even if he was stabbed by the people with knives, he would not fight back.
But his Chu Yujia's iron horseman, no matter who it is, as long as you dare to do it to me, then I will kill you, and you will also die innocently.
Although Chu Yujia was punished, his reputation had already spread, even if the people in Shuiyun County didn't know, these officials were very clear.
After seeing Chu Yujia finish speaking, he was silent for a long time, and several county guards were also silent, not knowing what Chu Yujia was thinking now.
One of them couldn't stand Chu Yujia's compelling coercion, so he simply asked, "I don't know why the general called me and others to come?"
Chu Yujia put down the teacup and swept it over the faces of the people in front of him, and said, "It's nothing, just ask everyone, how has the past few years been, is the treasury full?"
Under Shuiyun County, there are five county seats, Lujiang, Guyang, Jinshan, Yanfu and Shuidong.
Now the county guards of Guyang County and Shuidong County have been killed by Zuo Jinkai, and now the remaining county guards do not dare to answer directly at this time, you look at me, I look at you, no one spoke.
Seeing that a few people didn't speak, Chu Yujia looked down at the two heads on the ground, and said: "I like to work and work, if the big guy has anything to say, if there is really a deficit, I will not sit idly by, but if you don't tell me now, then I will have the right to deal with the treasury full, and if anyone is looking for me for silver in the future, it will be nothing." ”
The county guard of Lujiang County hesitated for a moment, but still got up and said, "Don't hide it from the general, our Lujiang County's treasury is not very full. ”
"Lujiang County?"
Chu Yujia raised his eyebrows, looking at the expression of the county guard of Lujiang County, a little touchable.
Lujiang County is located in the southeast of Shuiyun County, although the land in the county is not as good as other places, but in Shuiyun County, it is definitely a relatively wealthy one.
But the man in front of him told himself that they had a deficit.
This......
Chu Yujia picked the corners of his mouth and said, "As far as I know, isn't Lujiang County the richest county in this Shuiyun County?"
Hearing this, the county guard of Lujiang County smiled bitterly and said: "The general doesn't know, our Lujiang County has had a bad year in the past few years, and the house has also had a lot of deficits because of some miscellaneous matters, and now it has been persecuted by the desert barbarian soldiers, and now it is really difficult to ......."
Chu Yujia narrowed his eyes and said, "In that case, then I will allocate you 100,000 taels of silver and 1,000 stones of rice and grain to help you tide over the difficulties in Lujiang County." ”
Hearing this, the county guard of Lujiang County was also very surprised, but he didn't expect Chu Yujia to give him money and rice so happily.
The corners of Chu Yujia's mouth twitched, and he said with a smile: "Money is something outside the body, and it will be filled sooner or later in the future, and what I need is for you to cooperate with me, so that it is good for everyone, you are your county guard, and I am my county guard." Otherwise, don't even think about ...... peace."
While giving them high-pressure policies, it is natural that they should also be suitable for soft policies.
As the words fell, Chu Yujia continued to speak: "As for the affairs of the barbarian soldiers, you don't have to worry about it, you just need to manage the internal affairs of your counties." ”
Seeing everyone nodding, Chu Yujia waved his hand and said, "If there is nothing to do, everyone should go back first, and after the barbarian soldiers are done, I will naturally go to you one by one." ”
"But ......"
Chu Yujia groaned for a moment, his gaze swept over everyone's faces, and his voice gradually became cold: "If you let me know who is harming the people behind your back, then don't blame my sword for being ruthless." ”
As soon as they heard this, they felt the murderous aura on Chu Yujia's body, and the three county guards were all frightened into a cold sweat, and they should have fled out of the county guard's mansion after that.
Even if Chu Yujia was ruthless, it was impossible for him to kill all these people at once, after all, he was just one person, he couldn't be in charge of all the things by himself, he definitely needed some people to help him do things, and his biggest purpose in killing those two people was to deter others.
Now, according to Chu Yujia's handling of the matter, the internal affairs have stabilized, and it is only when the desert barbarian soldiers are driven away, and he checks it together.
Before this, Chu Yujia also had a very important thing to do.
Recruitment ......
It is impossible to fight a war only by relying on the 10,000 men and horses he brought, and he has to recruit soldiers from the local area into the army, otherwise this army will have no new force at that time, but it will really become a place with no return.
Everyone understands the truth that the outside must first be at home, and the same is true for Chu Yujia, the most important problem at present is to solve the internal troubles within Shuiyun County.
Now Zhuang Jiade, Yan Tianrui, Chu Haojie, Yang Renqi have begun to encircle and suppress the desert barbarian soldiers, but after all, the cavalry among them is still a small part, and it is not difficult to see through the reported military situation that after several unexpected battles in the early stage, the desert barbarian soldiers are no longer stationed in place or waiting in place as before.
They basically left after robbing, and Yan Tianrui did more to clean up the mess.
If the barbarian soldiers are not eliminated, the people in the county will not even be able to talk about stability and stability, so how can they talk about solving the problem of food and clothing and fighting against foreign enemies?
Therefore, for them now, clearing the barbarian soldiers in the county is the most important thing.
And one of the most important points is to make the people in the county believe that he Chu Yujia can protect them like his father, and he can do better than his father.
But these words are not spoken, but done.
Chu Yujia turned his head to look at Meng Feihang beside him, and said, "The demon fire you made at Huling Pass last time, do you still have it?"
"Absolutely. ”
Meng Feihang smiled and said, "The Ordnance Battalion is not in vain, although it has only been a few months, I have already done a lot. ”
When the words fell, Meng Feihang realized that something was wrong, looked up at Chu Yujia, and asked in a condensed voice, "Why are you asking this?"
"I want to do something big. ”
"Doing something big again?"
Hearing this, Meng Feihang subconsciously thought of the time at Huling Pass.
That time, Chu Yujia said that he was going to do something big, but he directly took three thousand light horsemen to the capital of Qi State.
Could he be thinking......
Knowing that Meng Feihang is smart, most of them have already guessed his purpose.
Chu Yujia didn't hide it, and said directly: "The people of Ye are strong, and the people of the northwest are more fierce than the people of the entire Ye country, and it is not easy to subdue their hearts, and there must be a big victory." ”
"Now that the desert cavalry in the territory has basically been cleared, this is actually an advantage for us. ”
Chu Yujia frowned and shook his head and said: "The characteristic of the desert cavalry is that they don't need to be fostered, they can grab it wherever they go, and the matter of strengthening the city wall has been tested by martyrs for us since hundreds of years ago, and it is useless at all, they can ride a horse for hundreds of miles regardless of fatigue and bypass the city pass and enter Shuiyun County." ”
As soon as he heard this, Meng Feihang also thought so.
Although he didn't see the scene of Chu Yujia and the desert cavalry facing Europe, he knew what these desert tribesmen's cavalry meant to the people of this era.
The characteristic of the desert cavalry is that it is highly mobile, and they do not fight with the enemy at all to attack fortified battles or positional battles, they are all lightning raids, and once they succeed, they will immediately slip away, and they will not give you a chance to meet at all.
"Actually, that's the most important thing, and the most important thing is that we can't recruit new recruits right now. ”
"It's not because of anything else, it's because the people don't have faith in us. ”
"If the recruits can't be recruited, and the more powerful Gumo Kingdom will come to attack, our army will not be able to resist at all, so we can only watch dryly. ”
"So we have to do something earth-shattering, only in this way can we give the people confidence that we can hold and protect them, and only then will people choose to join the army. ”
Meng Feihang pursed his lips and asked, "Then what do you mean......?"
"I mean it very simply. ”
Chu Yujia's eyes flashed with the same brilliance, and he said, "Soldiers came out of Shuiyun County, just like my father did fifteen years ago, and went into the desert to crusade against the desert tribes who came to attack my Shuiyun County. ”
Hearing this, Meng Feihang almost choked to death by his own saliva, and said, "Are you serious?"
"Seriously. ”
"You're not crazy, are you?"
At this time, even characters like Meng Feihang began to disapprove, and said: "On the way here, I have already inquired, the area of this desert is not small, there are dozens of tribes large and small, and you know better than anyone that the characteristics of desert tribes are all soldiers, as long as the man who can ride a war horse is a soldier, not to mention, there must be at least 100,000 soldiers to fight, are you sure you want to crusade against people?"
"Why not?"
Chu Yujia chuckled and said, "I can go to the capital of Qi Kingdom, can't I go to this desert?"
