After Huo San finished speaking, the expressions of everyone in the conference room changed. Ye Mingsheng pondered for a while and asked:
"Is there any evidence?"
Huo San hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but still shook his head with some regret and said:
"I'm sorry, sir, Luo An's secret team is working hard to collect intelligence, but there is currently no evidence to prove it..."
Hearing Huo San's answer, Ye Mingsheng said nothing on the surface, but secretly nodded in his heart.
Shangguan Hongyuan is over sixty years old. In his early years, he fought in the north and south and suffered many injuries. Therefore, it is no secret that he is not in good health now. Many people estimate that he has only been in the past two years. Because of this, Shangguan Hongyuan was After the news of Yuan's critical illness came out, Luo An and his gang went ahead without doubting whether it was true or not.
Ye Mingsheng was surprised but also a little suspicious that Shangguan Hongyuan had set up such a big trap this time.
According to the news from Luo'an, this time in the name of eliminating rebellion, Shangguan Hongyuan followed Xu Zhaojie's example and launched a purge in Luo'an, killing nearly ten thousand people.
Such a big move seemed to wipe out all the threatening opponents, but in fact it also left deep hidden dangers and cracks within the Luo'an court. These hidden dangers and cracks were not a problem when Shangguan Hongyuan was alive. Big, he can easily suppress it with his prestige and means. After spending a few years to win over people's hearts, the Luo'an court will unite more closely around him.
But if Shangguan Hongyuan left Hexi in recent years and his son Shangguan Changgong came to power, then the matter would be a different matter... ·····
Because he is Shangguan Hongyuan's only son, Shangguan Changgong was determined to be Shangguan Hongyuan's heir early on. He has always attracted the attention of all parties. Everyone generally has the same view on this person. He is the same as his father Shangguan Hongyuan. Compared with such heroes in troubled times, Shangguan Changgong is a humble gentleman who treats others well.
If Shangguan Hongyuan wiped out the world and created a new dynasty, then Shangguan Changgong would be a very good defender, but it is a pity that Shangguan Hongyuan failed to do this. What Shangguan Hongyuan will leave him is a precarious country with internal and external troubles. Luoan court.
Shangguan Changgong has also been trained a lot by Shangguan Hongyuan in recent years. He has successively served as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, the Yin of Luo'an, and the Minister of the Ministry of War. Now he has been promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of War of the Luoan court, controlling all the troops of the Luoan court. .
Although the experience in these positions helped Shangguan Changgong accumulate rich political experience, he did not have the lofty political prestige, sophisticated political methods, and ruthless tactics of Shangguan Hongyuan.
Therefore, many people are skeptical about whether Shangguan Changgong, a humble gentleman, can suppress the treacherous and cunning Luoan bureaucrats and the proud and powerful generals of the Forbidden Army after he takes office.
Therefore, Ye Mingsheng is also confused. If the news that Shangguan Hongyuan is critically ill is false, how many years can Shangguan Hongyuan live? He should not use such drastic measures to deepen the internal conflicts in the Luo'an court. He should promise Xu Tuzhi The only way to cut the meat slowly is to create a stable and harmonious succession environment for Shangguan Changgong as much as possible...
Huo San's words just now also made Ye Mingsheng aware of a possibility. Is there a possibility that although Shangguan Hongyuan set up a trap for Shi Huairen and others to trap and kill them, the critically ill bait thrown by Shangguan Hongyuan was real, so Why would he be so eager to eliminate these factors that could threaten Shangguan Changgong's succession?
Although Huo San said that there is no evidence to prove this possibility, Ye Mingsheng believes that this just proves this point to a certain extent. This matter must be a highly confidential matter of the Luo'an court. Although the hidden line of the Coordination Office is good, but if If the evidence is found so quickly, it makes people suspicious!
After thinking for a while, Ye Mingsheng ordered Huo San:
"Send an order to your subordinates and ask them to collect as much evidence as possible while remaining cautious!"
"yes!"
Hearing Ye Mingsheng's words, Huo San felt happy. He knew that he had made the right bet. Due to the mistakes in previous intelligence, and the fact that there was no evidence to support this information, some of his closest confidants were I think we should take a long-term approach and should not report to Ye Mingsheng again so soon.
Huo San is also very clear about the concerns of his subordinates. Because of Jiang Kuang's incident, the commander-in-chief also has doubts about his ability to work. What's more, although they have temporarily reached cooperation with Ji Xian, this is only temporary. Ji Xian also has the audit tasks assigned to him by his adults...
When Jiang Kuang's sting is removed, Ji Xian will definitely continue to investigate the previous bad debts handled by the Bureau, and conflicts between everyone will still be on the verge of breaking out.
Therefore, under such circumstances, you should be cautious in everything you do, and do not allow the commander to be dissatisfied with him anymore.
Huo San has a different view on this. He has been with Ye Mingsheng for so many years, and he also understands Ye Mingsheng's character. He knows that if you blindly seek to be cautious and not make mistakes, you will be seeking your own death. The more critical you are in such a crisis. Moment, the more you want to prove your worth to Ye Mingsheng!
That's why Huo San took the plunge and reported this news to Ye Mingsheng that had no evidence to support it!
The facts proved that he was right. From the words "on the basis of caution" in Ye Mingsheng's instructions, Huo San felt that Ye Mingsheng had probably believed this information. Otherwise, Ye Mingsheng would definitely ask for full verification. The authenticity of this news.
Not to mention Huo San's psychological activities, after giving instructions to Huo San, Ye Mingsheng looked at Yuan Song, who was first on the left.
After feeling Ye Mingsheng's gaze, Yuan Song also stood up from the queue, thinking about Ye Mingsheng's report:
"Our army has basically completed the first phase of rest and reorganization. Ten thousand soldiers of the Second Army and the Third Division of the Yunbin battlefield have been able to go home to visit relatives. Five thousand soldiers of the First Army of Hebei, Yu and Huainan have also returned. Visiting relatives at home, these troops will return to the army from their hometowns one month later as planned..."
"In addition, according to your instructions, we also transferred some backbones from General Ye Tie's Fifth Division and General Ye Dong's Ninth Division to support the Third Division. There is also a plan to restore the Third Division to the third army organization. The sequence is in progress, and it is expected that the Third Army will regain most of its combat effectiveness within the next three months!"
"In addition, the Fengwu Army's internal integrity campaign is also being carried out as planned. 357 military attachés of all levels have undergone internal review, 79 of whom have problems of varying degrees, and 51 The people were handed over to the military department, and in the next three months, 315 people will undergo internal review!"
Listening to Yuan Song's report, Ye Mingsheng nodded with satisfaction. Although the Fengwu Army stopped attacking cities and territories during this period due to the weather and its own reasons, there were still a lot of actions within the Fengwu Army. For about three months Recently, Yue Qing, the chief officer of the Fengwu Army, submitted a report to Ye Mingsheng about the corruption and slackness of some generals in the logistics department of the Fengwu Army.
Because the barrel of a gun is the foundation for maintaining the Fengwu Army's regime and the basis for the Fengwu Army's external expansion, Ye Mingsheng attached great importance to this report. After carefully reading the contents of the report, Ye Mingsheng also ordered Yue Qing to conduct strict inspections. check.
Yue Qing's investigation was very fast, and he soon submitted more details about the situation to Ye Mingsheng. After carefully reading these details, Ye Mingsheng was shocked by these situations while being angry.
Through Yue Qing's report, he also realized that these problems did not only occur in the logistics department, but also occurred generally in the entire army...
The existence of these problems has a direct impact on the combat effectiveness of the Fengwu Army. The previous unsatisfactory progress of the Fengwu Army on the Yunbin battlefield was also caused by these problems. All these factors made Ye Mingsheng realize that he was too old. It has been a long time since there has been an anti-corruption campaign in the military, and many people have forgotten what is required of them.
Although he directly paid military salaries to the soldiers below through Dadongsheng Company, it eliminated the possibility of empty pay within the Fengwu Army, but he still couldn't prevent some moths from trying to use their power to cash in and get benefits from their own pockets. , in order to gain benefits for themselves, they use all kinds of methods. Only you can't think of it, but they can't do it!
Therefore, Ye Mingsheng also had the opportunity to take advantage of the fact that all the troops of the Fengwu Army were resting and there was no war. He carried out large-scale internal rectification of the troops under the Fengwu Army and tried his best to investigate various problems that had arisen within the Fengwu Army. The idea of cleaning the moth out of the army.
Although he had this idea, Ye Mingsheng also knew that things would not be easy to do if he mobilized his whole body. Although Ye Mingsheng was confident that he could break through the resistance and fully implement his will, once the large-scale internal rectification began, all levels of The generals will definitely be in danger, and the combat effectiveness of each unit will definitely be affected. This is inevitable...
The large-scale rest and reorganization of the Fengwu Army during this period is to prepare for large-scale military operations after the beginning of spring. In case the combat effectiveness of the troops declines seriously due to internal reorganization, and the military operations do not progress smoothly, or even In the event of defeat, the price paid would be too high!
As the commander-in-chief of the Fengwu Army, Ye Mingsheng must take these factors into consideration. After careful and careful consideration, as well as conversations with senior generals He Jingyun, Yuan Song, and Guo Zhiping, as well as understanding the attitudes of some grassroots generals, Ye Mingsheng In the end, I chose to believe in this army that I created with my own hands!
Ye Mingsheng ordered the military department to launch a clean-up operation in various ministries. He not only wanted to drive out these bad apples, but also used them to scare the monkeys and let others take a warning and know that there are some things that cannot be done in the Fengwu Army!
And now Yuan Song's report also makes Ye Mingsheng feel that everything is developing in the right direction. The large-scale internal rectification has not caused chaos within the Fengwu Army, so he can feel relieved.
After thinking for a while, Ye Mingsheng ordered Yuan Song:
"Order to transfer Lin Huaiwu to serve as the commander-in-chief of Qilu!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the conference room was shocked. Everyone couldn't believe their ears...
Although the Commander-in-Chief of Qilu controls the entire Qilu army and is a senior general in the Fengwu Army system, Lin Huaiwu is a veteran of the Fengwu Army. He was the earliest confidant who followed the commander-in-chief, and is now the commander-in-chief of the Yunbin battlefield. , the commander of the Second Army, commanded tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Second Army and the Third Division, and asking him to serve as the commander-in-chief of Qilu was undoubtedly a downgrade!
Realizing this, everyone couldn't help but remember that the news about the previous incident spread from the military department. The corruption problem in various departments of the Fengwu Army on the Yunbin battlefield was particularly prominent, and some senior generals also had considerable problems. Therefore, this paragraph At that time, everyone was guessing who the senior general in Yunbin battlefield was found to be problematic.
Some people think it is the Third Division General Xun Ke, and some people think it is the acting Eighth Division General Ye Tao, but no one doubts Lin Huaiwu. This does not mean that everyone thinks Lin Huaiwu is very clean, but everyone generally believes that although Yue Qing has always been selfless, But he is not strong enough to dare to deal with a military boss like Lin Huaiwu.
But judging from Ye Mingsheng's current order, everyone was wrong. Yue Qing really went to investigate Lin Huaiwu. Not only did he investigate, but he actually brought down a close confidant like Lin Huaiwu. Thinking of this, everyone felt deeply alarmed, and even Lin Huaiwu has been defeated. The commander-in-chief is determined to make drastic changes this time...
After making the decision to transfer Lin Huaiwu, Ye Mingsheng made several major decisions in succession.
"Yuan Song, you will succeed Lin Huaiwu as the commander-in-chief of the Yunbin battlefield, and also serve as the commander of the Second Army. Ye Tao will officially take over as the general of the Eighth Division. The Third Division will resume the organization of the Third Army, with Xun Ke assuming the position of commander!"
"As for Yuan Song, after you go to Yunbin, let Zhao Han take over as chief of staff!"
Listening to Ye Mingsheng's series of appointments, Yuan Song was in a very good mood and hurriedly said yes. Although he served as the Chief of General Staff in the General Staff Headquarters and was nominally the second-in-command of the armed forces, he was from a field army. He also knew that he was not good at the position of Chief of General Staff, the steward of the Fengwu Army. Ye Mingsheng's transfer to this position was just a transition.
Now that the world has not yet been unified, his old bones can still continue to contribute. After Ye Mingsheng completes the adjustment in the army, he will definitely transfer him back to the front-line troops and continue to let him lead the troops to fight!
Therefore, Yuan Song, the chief of staff, also handed over all matters to the deputy chief Zhao Han, and he was able to be a hands-off shopkeeper. And just as he imagined, Ye Mingsheng has indeed let him come out again... ············
