Chapter 253 Military and Political

Guo Ning rode his horse back to the military fort. Before dismounting, he saw Yang Chengzhi holding a stack of files on the footpath on the second floor and hurried to the main hall where Guo Ning lived. Just like writing.

The reason why he could see clearly was that the front door and windows of his house were wide open, and a row of officials were waiting at the door. After receiving the warrant to assassinate Chucai, they rushed out to handle it.

Guo Ning looked up for a while.He sighed, and said to the guards beside him: "I have been busy all morning, my face is sore from smiling, I wanted to go back to the Chinese army to rest...Looking at this posture, when I go back, I have to face a mountain of documents, It's a real headache."

Ni Yiying said: "Jie Shuai, don't forget, after reading the paperwork, there are two more games in the afternoon."

Guo Ning couldn't help but swear.

The habit of a soldier makes Guo Ning's decision-making particularly neat.And once you have made up your mind, you have to do it immediately. There is no need to gather many people to discuss repeatedly, but to act vigorously and resolutely.

Just like today, all the new troops go out, two in the morning and two in the afternoon.However, the food, supplies, weapons, routes, deployment of military horses and other matters of the two troops have not been finalized until now.As a judge, Yila Chucai is certainly the busiest, but there are not a few documents that need to be personally signed and approved by the military governor.

Guo Ning doesn't like the work of those paperwork, but he also knows that an army or even a military and political group must be controlled by the center, and the key to many successes or failures lies in the center.

He thought for a while, and pointed at A Duo: "In my living courtyard, there is a wooden screen, you have seen it before. Go and move it out, and place it outside Mr. Jin Qing's door, to keep out the sea wind, so as not to catch cold."

Ardo went immediately.

Guo Ning thought of another thing: "Where is Li Quan's envoy? Wasn't it received by Jin Qing?"

"When Commander-in-Chief inspected Xiao Mole's training, Mr. Jin Qing sent him away."

Guo Ning nodded.He turned around and looked outside the military fort.

Outside the military castle, Xiao Mole's troops marched along the road, which looked like a long snake from a distance.Guo Ning reached out and patted the iron bone next to the saddle, and slowly said thoughtfully: "Li Quan seems to be humble, but in fact the city is very deep... But, I have already told Xiao Mole how to deal with it."

In the past two days, the Dinghai Navy has established four new divisions, with [-] generals under its jurisdiction, with a total strength of more than [-] people.Once these four bureaucrats are established, they will be sent out immediately. The task is to cooperate with Yanning, Zhang Rong, Yan Shi, Dong Jin and others to enter the four prefectures of Weizhou, Yidu, Zizhou, and Jinan, but they will not occupy the capital along the way. The land does not involve the place, it only ensures the safety of the people from all over Shandong who are fleeing to Laizhou along the way.

In the past few years, the center of gravity of the imperial court's use of troops has continued to move northward, and the east and west roads in Shandong are already undercurrents.The commanding officer Wanyan Sala occupies several military fortresses and big cities, pretending not to see that the power of Yang An'er and Liu Erzu is far-reaching, and puts on a peaceful posture, but in fact, they have been hollowed out by various local forces up.

With the arrival of the Mongols, Wanyan Sala avoided fighting, even lost the richest Jinan Prefecture, and even the prestige of the imperial court was trampled into the quagmire.Many forces that did not dare to move around in the past, all took the opportunity to rise.

Like Yan Ning and others, they all have insight and foresight, and they value Ding Haijun's bravery and combat skills.

But there are more forces, either short-sighted toubob villains, or heroes who have long harbored the idea of ​​rebellion, and even the reunited Jurchen Meng'an Mouk Town Defense Army. , making their own choices one after another, and in their eyes, the forces worthy of allegiance or closeness are different from those of Yan Ning and others.

Therefore, it is impossible for Yanning to attract the public, and the journey will naturally not be smooth, and there will inevitably be some small-scale military conflicts, or other difficulties.These happened to be used for military training, so Guo Ning let go of the power to the new governors, and took the opportunity to see if the officers promoted by himself were available.

Within the limits of these two prefectures and two prefectures, there are still a few that have long been strong enough to support one side of the situation.For example, Guo Ning's close neighbor, Li Quan, a wealthy man from Changyi County in the north of Weizhou, is one of the best.

Since last year, Li Quan has actually controlled the entire Weizhou.Taking advantage of Wanyan Sala's opportunity to defend himself behind closed doors while Guo Ning fought fiercely with the Mongols, Li Quan raided Weizhou governor Duji Shixian, killed him, and then sent an envoy named Zheng Yande with the Duji Ji Shixian's head and plausible confession were sent to Laizhou.

Li Quan also wrote a letter, saying humbly that Duji Shixian had colluded with the Mongols and allowed Tuo Lei's troops to go deep into Shandong, so Li Quan was outraged and killed him.

This statement, I am afraid that Guo Ning and others are not regarded as fools.

Previously, the Mongolian cavalry marched straight from Weizhou to Laizhou, traveling hundreds of miles, as if entering a deserted land, without warning.How can Duji Shixian do this?Even if he could do it, what would he gain?
Many things gradually became clear as the battle resumed. Even if there was no clear evidence, some people began to doubt it.But why did Li Quan come back and want to get rid of the suspicion lightly?

All the generals who were entitled to read this letter were all very angry.Someone even stepped forward on the spot, asking for soldiers to attack Changyi, and pulled out this sneaky nail that was close at hand.

But anger is anger, and the army did not dispatch in the end.

In fact, everyone also understood that Li Quan sent people here not to explain anything, but to express his goodwill to bow to the strong.At the same time, Li Quan's headquarters are on high alert in various parts of Weizhou, and they have shown their attitude that they will never be controlled by others.

He is an interesting character, and he has some means of survival in troubled times.

Guo Ning did not intend to accept Li Quan's kindness.In the end, there must be an explanation for colluding with the Mongolian army, or even making excuses.But right now, it's not the time to go to war.

For one thing, as soon as the fierce battle was over, Ding Haijun had to firmly grasp the benefits he had won, and wait until he was full and had enough strength before talking about the next move.Secondly, although Li Quan is beside the couch, his strength is limited after all; from a certain angle, he happens to be a firewall between Guo Ning and Wanyan Sala.

Therefore, since Li Quan dared to say that, Guo Ning dared to believe it.

It's just that he didn't accept Duji Shixian's head and confession, and asked Yira Chucai to reprimand the envoy Yitong sternly, asking Li Quan to respect the court's laws and don't ignore the envoys of the Shandong Commander and Yidu. The general manager of the army and horses, the Jiedu envoy of Zhenhai, and the court official who is also in charge of Weizhou's military administration, Wanyan Sala paid attention to him.

While envoy Li Quan is leaving, Xiao Mole's army will be stationed in Weizhou to open the way for the people who yearn for stability.

Of course, Guo Ning's subordinates will also appear in Yidu Mansion where Wanyan Sala is located.

Guo Ning will not take the opportunity to occupy the land, he just wants to attract some people.Different from the scheming bigwigs, ordinary people have a much simpler idea. They want a stable meal, and in the entire Shandong area, there is no job that is more secure than Laizhou.

Guo Ning is very confident that as long as there is a year or so of peace, Laizhou will become completely new.And based on Laizhou with a thriving population, well-developed agriculture, and elite soldiers, Guo Ning will be able to do more.

Thinking of this, Guo Ning walked forward slowly along the path, and when he was about to reach the door of Yila Chucai's room, A Duo had already led people to carry the wooden screen.But this boy has a straightforward personality and is not very sensible. He placed the screen too close to the door, which not only affected the communication of officials, but also blocked the light in the room.

Guo Ning shook his head repeatedly, rolled up his sleeves, and moved the screen to the handrail on the outer edge of the walkway.

Yira Chucai was busy moving the brush like flying, without raising his head, completely unaware that Guo Ning was carrying it in front of him.Some officials wanted to remind, Guo Ning made a silent gesture, and then went to the back of the path.

　I've regretted it, I've been frustrated... hold on!Believe in organization!Believe in organization!
