Zhao Huan finished his work, and under Yue Fei's guidance, his words spread throughout the entire army as quickly as possible, and even continued to spread to the people during his march.
This time he and Yue Fei were ready to take charge of their respective sides.
Yue Fei was responsible for attacking Dongting Lake and facing off against Zhong Xiang Yang Yao and others, while Zhao Huan sent a letter to the court, asking Chen Dong and Zhao Ye to take the imperial students and many officials from the court to prepare to go to the south of the Yangtze River!
When Zhao Huan was fighting in the court, the reason why he was restrained was because Jiangnan was too important.
Cai Jing, Wang Fu and others have been in charge of the court for many years, and they are also deeply rooted here.
Now it is time to take advantage of the Zhongxiang Rebellion to sort out this important place in the south of the Yangtze River to see who can be used and who deserves to die!
In Dongting Lake, Yang Yao was no longer the Dongting Lake water bandit who followed Zhong Xiang back then. Although he was only in his early twenties, he was already a famous commander in the rebel army.
He even has some fame in this world.
Now he is surrounded by stars, and most of the generals of the rebel army are obeying his orders. Dozens of leaders including Longyang's Xia Cheng, Yang Qin, Yang Guang, Cili Chen Yuxin, Songzi Li Herong, Liyang Yingxuan, etc. The main general among the rebels.
Some people even called him a general among the rebels.
It is said that he is a general under the command of Zhong Xiang and a pillar of the Chu Dynasty.
These words naturally reached his ears, and Yang Yao was naturally filled with joy, and even slowly began to feel a little arrogant.
In the final analysis, Yang Yao is just a young man who has just turned 20 years old. He did not join the rebel army because he believed in the great unity of the world as mentioned by Zhong Xiang.
He joined the rebel army simply because he felt that he could play his role here and fulfill his dream!
The dream of becoming the strongest person in the world.
So he doesn't care about what kind of world Zhong Xiang wants. What he cares about is what he gets.
Just like now, he was playing with the jade ring in his hand with a smile on his face.
"This is the finest mutton-fat jade. It was plundered from the mansion of Du Fang, a descendant of the "Queen Mother Zhaoxian". It's ridiculous that Du Fang falsely claimed that he was an upright and honest official, saying that he was serving the people." The official.
What's so good about the officials in this world? "
Yang Qin on the side was introducing the mutton-fat jade finger ring to Yang Yao. He talked about it in a dazzling way and even praised Yang Yao from time to time, which made Yang Yao feel even better.
He didn't care at all that less than ten coins were found in Du Fang's mansion, and he didn't care at all that Du Fang had never done a single evil thing in his life.
In their view, as long as you are an official, you should die.
Under this false fairness, the first wave of backlash has already begun.
Those who have meritorious service want their reward, and ambition is slowly nourished by strength.
Yue Fei went south from Shunchang Prefecture. Along the way, many bandits broke out and committed crimes here. This was another shortcoming of the Song Dynasty. They fought and lost battles all year round.
The defeated army began to flee in all directions, looting and killing people with the weapons in their hands, making the people who were already full of distrust of the Song Dynasty even more distrustful.
Yue Fei maintained strict military discipline along the way and would kill all the defeated bandits without any mercy, regardless of which general they once served and who they belonged to now.
Now Yue Fei has the most arrogant backer in the Song Dynasty, and some people actually came to defeat these rebels, but Yue Fei yelled away in anger, and his impeachment was sent directly to Luoyang.
The kind that Zhao Huan personally impeached.
At the same time, Yue Fei beheaded first and then reported to seize his military power, and appointed his generals to temporarily replace his troops. At the same time, he waited for Chen Dong, Zhao Ye and others to come with their officials to join them.
This set of operations made various local officials in Jiangnan doubt whether Yue Fei was here to suppress the rebellion or to rebel.
This is simply to become the king of Jiangnan.
Even Luoyang Chaotang looked helpless when he saw these things.
"How about sending the emperor's guard of honor over there? On this day, there were not even a hundred but eighty memorials to impeach Yue Fei in the south of the Yangtze River. Each one of them labeled him as treason and treason."
Zhao Ding looked at the memorial in his hand, which was full of lawsuit troubles. He wanted to directly ask Zhao Huan to reveal his identity, but Li Gang refused.
At this time, Li Gang opened the memorial again and saw the memorial impeaching Yue Fei for treason and treason, and then threw it to the ground angrily. His mood that had just improved was completely ruined by this group of people again.
"Why do you want officials to reveal their identities?
Why don't you give these guys a chance to fool the officials?
Over the years, the important land in the south of the Yangtze River has been fooled by this group of rats, each one pretending to be peaceful. If the important place in the south of the Yangtze River is really as good as he said.
How could this clock phase cause such a big movement?
We live deep in the temple, and everything in this place depends on its memorials. Whether the people are good or bad, and we don't believe them, how can we believe in that bullshit guidance from God?
Nowadays, this group of people are all bad from the bottom up. They are useless at managing people's livelihood. On the contrary, they are extremely good at amassing money.
This Dingzhou prefect... what the hell is this? He's starting to make a profit from the taxes from the imperial court!
If you don't kill this kind of people, why are you keeping them?
Are you keeping him to give birth to cubs? "
"If Li Xiangmo wants to be angry, let's not mention that Chen Dong, Zhao Ye and others have already gone to Jiangnan to make preparations to replace officials, that is..."
Before Yu Wenxuzhong finished speaking, he was interrupted by the furious Li Gang.
"Zhao Ye's family gets angry when we talk about this. Why are you stopping this family and asking Zhao Ye to do what?
He doesn’t understand military matters, and he has a gentle temper!
If I were to tell you, just send that guy Han Shizhong over and kill everyone who dares to commit any crime!
In the worst case, you can just let Pharmacist Guo go! "
"You let Zhao Ye go to appease the people of Jiangnan, not to kill people. If you let Han Shizhong go, what about Hedong Road?"
"Tune Yang Weizhong back to Hedong!"
"Zongze is almost seventy!" Zhao Kai finally said something faintly and made Li Gang shut up.
At this moment, this old man who had been stubborn all his life suddenly thought that people of his generation had reached the last stage of their lives.
Newcomers... need to be promoted.
"Prime Minister Li doesn't have to be so depressed. The Song Dynasty can't do without Prime Minister Li, nor can it do without Commander-in-Chief Zong." Zhao Kai looked at Li Gang who was suddenly depressed and quickly comforted him.
"Brother Huang has already begun to fight in various places, and I can't just sit here and wait for the battle report.
Now the Jin people have retreated again. Although Qin Hui has not come back yet, the news has been transmitted. The matter of Zhong Xiang is indeed inextricably linked to the Jin people.
Now we can use this matter to write some articles! "
After Zhao Kai finished speaking, Yu Wenxuzhong had already understood something, "Does King Yun want to use the Imperial City Division?"
"In the past two years, we have given Tong Guan tens of millions of dollars in such an empty treasury. If this guy can't come up with something real.
You can talk to the emperor about abolishing the Imperial City Department. "
Zhao Kai's words also made everyone present smile. Zhao Huan had defied all the opinions and handed over the Imperial City Division to Tong Guan. The Imperial City Division was so dilapidated that it was almost in name only, and the six men were afraid that they might be beheaded in public at any time. One of the thieves.
The two guys came together and didn't know what would happen.
"Tong Guan has met King Yun and met all the princes!" Tong Guan, who walked in with a big stride, now has a bit of the demeanor of the past, but now that he sees these people in front of him, he is very humble.
"Do you know what happened in Jiangnan?"
"Know!"
"Do you, Imperial City Secretary, have any ideas?"
"The situation in Jiangnan is corrupt, and the corrupt people far outnumber the honest officials. After the initial screening by the Imperial City Division, only a few people can still be appointed.
Although Du Fang, the "descendant of Empress Dowager Zhaoxian", was mediocre in talent, he was fortunate to be honest and self-examined, but he should have been killed by the thief now.
Huang Cong, the magistrate of Lizhou, was a descendant of Huang Pu, the former school secretary of the Tang Dynasty. He was quite courageous. When he was an official, he sent people to inspect the countryside. He always restrained his officials in advance and not to harass the people at will.
If there is a sudden urgent inspection, he never sends money or men to the local people, so he is deeply respected by the people!
At that time, the late emperor sent his minister Yang Anshi as the official envoy to Fujian. He hinted several times in Taining County that the then magistrate Huang Cong was entertaining and supporting him, but Huang Cong never paid attention to the matter.
In the end, it happened that the late emperor made a sudden attack and asked Yang Anshi who was an honest official. Yang Anshi was unprepared and finally held Huang Cong out for a long time.
It can be considered a blessing from God.
This person is expected to serve as the magistrate of Lizhou, but now the thieves are besieging Lizhou and need rescue.
Similarly, Ye She, the magistrate of Lizhou County, was Huang Cong's right-hand man.
Qian Jing, the magistrate of Taoyuan County, and Wu Rifang, the military magistrate of Jingmen, are all people who can be used in our court. The specific matters have been written in the memorial, please take a look. "
While Tong Guan was speaking, he took out a memorial and presented it to everyone present.
After Zhao Kai and others read the memorial, they looked at each other and nodded.
"If the other person is the commander of the Imperial City Division, this thing will indeed be considered a considerable contribution, but you, Tong Guan, are the commander of the Imperial City Division... this is not enough!" Zhao Kai was not polite to Tong Guan, "Before the official leaves, Let us prepare for the reform of official positions.
It is said that the officialdom of the Song Dynasty was a bit complicated. I was thinking about changing the official positions of the Imperial City Department first to give it a try.
I have heard for a long time that the Imperial City Division has ten people to serve as officials in the Imperial City Division. One member of the Imperial City Division will be promoted, and two to six members of the Imperial City Division will be promoted. Their status is below the promotion and above the cadres.
In addition, there are one detainer, one detainer each, four in the front, six in the back, and two deed surveyors.
Moreover, some people proposed to add two envoys each, namely the Literary Inspection Envoy, the Legal Affairs Envoy, the Chief Custody Officer, and the Custody Division Officer, with five people in the front and four people each in the rear and Cao Si, the Table Reporting Department, the Name Correcting Posting Department, and the Private Secretary. There are two named post officers, two expert magistrates, and two deputy magistrates.
There are just too many of these people.
I'm thinking of streamlining it a bit so that it can be more convenient to strengthen its leadership..."
"Zhong Xiang is surrounded by people from our Imperial City Department!"
