Chapter 161 Expropriation

Yila Chucai was writing to review a document, and would write it to the end. Hearing Guo Ning's words, his face remained unchanged, his hand trembled, and a drop of ink fell on the document.

When Guo Ning's troops first arrived in Shandong, everything was in the early stage, and Dinghai, a joint town, controlled the military and government of the three states, and the framework was very huge, even if it used the soldiers accumulated in the Feijunhe camp and Jing'an people in Zhuozhou , Many processes and affairs need to be adjusted continuously while advancing.

As a result, when Yila Chucai reviewed the documents, the opinions written on the side were often longer than the main text.And because, in order to prevent officials of different levels from ignoring or admitting mistakes, his characters are all strict and firm, and they are even and stable, and the characters are arranged neatly like an army formation.

Although Guo Ning is not proficient in calligraphy, he still thinks it is very good, as if it has the connotation of being stiff and straight.

However, it is not hypocritical to assassinate Chucai.As the ink fell, he paused for a while, turned his pen around, and then turned it into a sentence.

He closed the document, got up and asked: "Your Majesty also wants to be called a distinguished guest. He thinks he has an extraordinary status, but he doesn't know what kind of person he is?"

"The former Minister of Rites, Aotun Zhongxiao."

"This..." Yira Chucai was a little surprised: "Isn't this gentleman a Fuyu Hu Shahu, who was under Donghua's sect at that time, and was arrested by someone sent by Langjun? Why did he come here? What is this person's job now?"

Guo Ning chuckled twice: "I heard that this person left Beijing to take up his post a few days ago. He just arrived in Yidu, and now he is the inspector and transit envoy of Shandong East Road."

In the current situation, a short-term inspector or transfer envoy is nothing.That day, when he followed King Sheng and was blocked by Guo Ning's troops in Pingluzhai, there was Zhang Wei, the transfer envoy of Hebei West Road.

Yila Chucai's expression changed: "Then, this person came from Yidu?"

"Exactly, some of them crossed the Jiao River east of Changyi, bumped into our sentry horses, and brought them back."

"Interesting... Mr. Lang's jurisdiction is in Laizhou. Now Laizhou is not moving, but Yidu Mansion is very hospitable."

"Let's go and see who he represents and what he will say."

"As ordered."

It turned out that when Hu Shahu raided Zhongdu that day, his soldiers searched everywhere in the city, arrested many officials overnight, and ordered them to cooperate with his side.Those who were unwilling to cooperate or showed hostile intentions were killed on the spot.The remaining group of smart people expressed their willingness to cooperate with Hu Shahu, and they were headed by Aotun Zhongxiao, who was then Prince Shaofu and Minister of Rites.

Unexpectedly, not long after Aotun Zhongxiao had lost his sincerity to Hu Shahu, Guo Ning came in from outside the city, defeated the rebels in one breath, and beheaded Hu Shahu.When the two armies were fighting at the gate of Donghua, Ao Tun Zhongxiao was there to watch.

After Guo Ning took control of the situation, he arrested all the civil officials who were huddled in the corner, including Aotun Zhongxiao, and handed them over to Yousi when he withdrew his troops out of the city the next day.

At that time, both Guo Ning and Yila Chucai thought that this type of official was afraid of suffering, but they never thought that when they arrived in Shandong, they would still run into this person?The ascended king of that day, the current Dajin Emperor, showed a ruthless method of cleaning up the clan before ascending the throne, but after ascending the throne, he was quite polite and lenient in eliminating dissidents.

The two, one in front and one behind, transferred to the handsome account.

Guo Ning said his request, and in a moment, Ao Tun Zhongxiao stepped in from outside the tent.

This gentleman is more than sixty years old, and his appearance is pure and serious.When he was in the capital, he was a noble official. Even if he was relegated, his official rank was still higher than that of Guo Ning.

Now that Guo Ning sat still, calling Ao Tun Zhongxiao to see him was very rude, but Ao Tun Zhongxiao was not angry at all, his behavior was quite magnanimous.

Having met on both sides, Guo Ning cut straight to the point: "According to the inspector's envoy, who came from Yidu, what advice do you have?"

"A person who has committed a crime, how dare you have any advice? This time, I came here just to bring a letter to others... The little old man walked here, so that the sincerity of the Yidu side can be seen." Ao Tun Zhongxiao took out a copy from his sleeve. The document was unhurriedly passed to Guo Ning: "Jiedu envoy, please read."

Guo Ning took it with a smile, and said with a smile: "But I don't know, what kind of sincerity?"

Having said that, he opened the document and took a look.

It turned out to be a document issued by Wanyan Sala, the envoy of the Shandong East Road Commander, the governor of Yidu Prefecture and the chief of the military and horse capital.

The general content of the document is that the main force of the Mongolian army in the middle is now gathered in Weizhou, Junzhou, and Huazhou, and will either cross the river or move eastward.The Kaifeng Mansion in Nanjing has already been under martial law, and the East and West Command Army Divisions in Shandong will also gather the entire army and stand ready.All town states, defense states, and governor states must make every effort to collect food, fodder, supplies, soldiers and horses, and send them to Yidu to prepare for the war.

Guo Ning turned the document to the next page.

The commander of the army has a lot of appetite.It requires six thousand elite soldiers, a thousand horses, thousands of sets of armor, knives, guns, bows and crossbows and other equipment, tens of thousands of arrows, and a certain amount of money and banknotes.The last part, which seems to be newly added, has a slightly different font, and it says half a year's worth of fodder.

The list was very long, Guo Ning looked it over twice, looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "Wanyan Commander is indeed a veteran general and famous minister who has been in Shandong for a long time. He seems to be very familiar with Laizhou's family background?"

He handed over the document to Chucai Yira, and turned to Autun Zhongxiao: "It is the duty of a minister to serve the country with loyalty. In this way, after I go to Laizhou to take up my post, I will count the treasury, the barracks, and indeed the place. How about transferring all the savings to Yidu?"

"It doesn't have to be so troublesome."

"how to say?"

"Before Wanyan's military envoy went to Yidu, he was the Dinghai Jiedu envoy. Laizhou's treasury and barracks have long been emptied to prepare for the powerful enemy. This list does not refer to Laizhou's savings, but Guessing what Guo Jiedu gained in Zhongdu, I wrote it down in a rough sketch. I walked halfway, only to find that there were many omissions in it. Fortunately, the military envoy of Wanyan had already authorized it, so I temporarily added a few strokes, and I asked Guo Jiedu not to Strange."

Guo Ning twitched his face.

This old man doesn't know how to live or die, he is mocking me to my face for cleaning the treasury in Zhongdu!As for the omission... Did you think that I had enough food and fodder when I walked halfway and heard the cowhide I blow out?
By stroking his mustache, he concealed it a little, and asked with a sneer, "There is nothing missing, but all these supplies have been given to Yidu. How can I go to Laizhou to take up the post as an envoy of the Dingjun Navy?"

Aotun Zhongxiao smiled: "Military orders are like mountains, and all the troops and supplies under Guo Jiedu's command must be sent to Yidu. Of course, the military envoy Wanyan Sala has long admired Guo Jiedu's fierceness when he fought in the central capital." It would be even better if Guo Jiedu was willing to personally lead the army to Yidu and assist Wanyan Commander in resisting the Mongolian army."

"Whether it is good or not, I have to think carefully. Right now, there is a difficulty in planning for Wanyan's commanding army."

"Jedushi just say it."

"Wanyan commanded the army to gather all the soldiers and horses of Shandong in Yidu, and the east and south of Yidu were all empty. I heard that Ju, Yi and other places, Now there is Yang An'er, a traitor, who is entrenched, and there are many local thieves from various townships in Shandong. If they take the opportunity to make a big move, what should they do? Guo is responsible for guarding the land, so he will try his best to deal with him. But the entire northeast of Shandong Facing Mongolia, if there are rebels stirring up waves in the south, it is inevitable that the place will be corrupted. The envoys of the Wanyan Commander occupy the Yidu Mansion in vain, just to protect themselves... How can I explain this to the court?"
