Devil’s Advent

When the leader calls you over and tells you that there is something to discuss with you;

If you really believe in it and want to sit down and discuss it with him, then you will be broken in Tucson.

In fact, it's not that General Zheng doesn't understand this truth, but he really doesn't want to leave his lair.

What is this called?

I went to Shengle as soon as I built Cui Liu Fort.

I just built Shengle's new city wall, and I'm going to be transferred to Xueguan again?

Is he a general leading troops to fight, or Dayan's country yuan?

But no matter how much dissatisfaction you have, when Tian Wujing said that sentence, the matter has already been settled.

In fact, no one cares if you want to.

This sentence refers to the current relationship between the Marquis of Jingnan and General Sheng Le, but why doesn't it have a deeper meaning?

Zheng Fan remained silent and did not resist anymore, because the door to resistance had been blocked.

Tian Wujing looked at Zheng Fan and continued:

Snow Customs is a good place.

Master Hou, that was in the past.

Even if you intend to accept your fate, you have to say a few words about your grievances, right?

After being kicked out of his old nest, he still has to reply with a shy face: Master Hou is wise.

In the past, in this area, Xuehaiguan itself was a majestic pass. The reason why Zheng Fan's Sheng Le army was able to successfully defend this place was also due to the location of the majestic pass.

The savages hated it, but the reason why they couldn't completely destroy it was because the savage king stopped it in time, and the second was because the city was too strong.

The foundation is so deep, the city bricks are thick, and the scale is so huge that it would take a lot of effort for savages to demolish it.

It can be said that even if you expand the newly built Shengle City several times, it will be difficult to match the scale of Xueguan.

Because Xueguan is not only this city, but also a line of defense stretching out. There are many military forts similar to Cuiliu Fort and satellite towns on it.

Its status and size are similar to those of Tuman City seen in Beifeng County.

After all, it was Xiongguan built by Jin people with all their efforts, so how could it be bad?

And although it is called Guan, the space in the city is definitely not small, and it can accommodate a large number of people.

Originally, sitting in Xueguan, doing business with the wild people in Xueyuan, extending the trade route to Chu State, and at the same time undertaking business from Jin State to Yan State, and even further to the west, would definitely be a lot of money.

But now, after a war, the savage is not a master who knows how to flow, but a group of poor and crazy hungry wolves, almost turning this place into a blank land.

You must know that the savages couldn't even catch the Jin slaves nearby, and they couldn't catch cannon fodder to attack the city, and the food was gone.

It can be seen how far the population here has fallen.

The most important thing is that in the future, this place will inevitably be a place where wars are frequent.

The Kingdom of Yan has almost a military management system for the land of the Three Jin Dynasties. If you are stationed here, the imperial court may give you half of the money and food, and you can make up the rest yourself.

In other places, this is a matter of unspoken rules, because the court also knows that you must have a lot of external troubles. In a word, don't pretend to be clean and honest for me.

But the terrible thing is that once the war starts, you don’t even need to send troops, you still have to bear the expenses when the troops from other places come over, just like the last time when the Marquis of Jingnan led his army to go out to the snowy field, Shengle City provided food, grass and supplies for the civilians.

Therefore, I want to take over an empty shelf that looks huge but is actually empty inside, and I have to prepare for a large group of poor relatives to come to me in the future to enjoy the autumn wind and even eat and take.

Look, you have to look at the long-term. Shengle's place is too small after all.

Tian Wujing looked at Zheng Fan calmly,

continued:

The Marquis' Mansion should be moved from Litian City to Yingdu. Half of Litian City and Quhe City will be taken away by the imperial court to be replaced by civil servants.

Quhe City and Litian City are the capitals of Dang Helian's family and Wenren's family respectively. According to the Marquis of Jingnan, the pure military control of these two places will end, and two supreme officials, one civil and one military, will rule together. situation.

This is also in line with the prevailing trend today, where civil officials are in charge of the local area and generals are in charge of the military. However, because of the political environment of Yan State, for the time being, there will be no situation where civil officials overwhelm military generals like in Qian State.

But in this way, you will definitely not be comfortable.

After being separated from the economic and people's livelihood powers, how do you train your troops? How can you develop with peace of mind? How to expand the army? How can I engage in my own ideological and political construction?

In comparison, it seemed quite logical for Jingnan Hou to stay in Yingdu;

Firstly, it is to stabilize the local people, secondly, it is to deter Xueyuan and Chu, and thirdly, it can continue to erode and disintegrate the basic foundation of Cheng, so that it can be merged into Yan more quickly.

You can go to Quhe City and Litian City, but do you want to? Yingdu, it is impossible to give it to you. The land of the Three Jins can be regarded as a rich place. There are only a few places. Is it possible that you want jade? Pancheng?

There are still tens of thousands of Chu troops trapped in Yupan City. After several battles, it has long been empty.

Snow Customs, once it is in a dangerous position, if you go up, you can contain the snow field, and if you go down, you can approach the border of Chu.

As a general, one should not be afraid of fighting, what is afraid of is that there will be no battle.

There are actually quite a few of Dayan's general soldiers, but there is also a big gap between the general soldiers and the general soldiers. Sheng Le's general soldiers are not arrogant when they say it. remember you again?

A knife will rust if it is not sharpened, and if a person does not stand in front of the stage, he will be forgotten.

This can be regarded as Tian Wujing speaking from the bottom of his heart.

Let others go, promote him yourself, give him a place to garrison, it's fine if you don't feel grateful, how dare you pick and choose?

Are you drifting away or I, Jingnan Hou, can't lift a knife anymore?

It was only to Zheng Fan that Tian Wujing would say a few more words.

It's true that there is a piece of white land outside Xuehaiguan, but you, General Zheng, are the best at management. You can manage a small Shengle well. Here, you will re-operate Xuehaiguan. In the future, it will be really amazing.

If you hadn't made the greatest contribution to the Eastern Expedition this time, it would be very difficult for me to push you to the position of Chief Soldier of Xueguan at other times, even if you wanted to sit.

You are good at making things, you like business, and there are quite a lot of things from Shengle Workshop in the shops in Litian City.

If you want those 20,000 savage prisoners, I can give them to you, but if you still want...

The Marquis of Jingnan pointed to the north,

road:

On the snow field, there are many.

Slaves, labor, but if there is a shortage, go to the snow field to catch it.

Anyway, after this battle, even if the Yan people don't go to the northern expedition to the snowfield for the time being, the vitality on the snowfield has already been seriously injured, and it is difficult to toss about it again.

In the past, the slave trade of the wild people in the snow field was booming.

Zheng Fan believes that if the blind man is allowed to manage this matter, it is completely possible to use the routines that Westerners used to deal with black uncles.

Zheng Fan nodded,

The words are a little softer,

Said with emotion:

Master Hou, it's true to say so, the general also knows how much the Lord Hou appreciates and promotes the general, but...

In the first three years, Ying will be fully responsible for the money and food you need to support the Snow Customs.

Zheng Fan's eyes lit up.

In some other places, you can have shortcomings, and you can find a way to make up for it yourself, such as your Shengle City, but Xuehaiguan is in a dangerous position and has important ties. There are savages in front of you. Neither the court nor the people of Jin will want to come again. once.

This is the difference in location,

I heard that when Wujiang led the army to march eastward, you went to ask him for food and military pay. Although it was a deliberate evasion, everyone knew that the military supplies in Shengle could not be used in full.

But when you are sitting on the head of Xueguan City, you can directly write to Yingdu and the imperial court for what you want, and they dare not refuse to give it.

Don't talk about money and food,

You want people, you want officials, you want horses, you want official positions,

A pen, an item,

Even, you can open your mouth like a lion, and all the caravans you go out of Xueguan, the land of the Three Jins and the land of Yan, can be exempted from taxation.

The more Zheng Fan listened, the brighter his eyes became.

Fuck, is Lao Tian teaching me how to be a warlord?

Tian Wujing looked at Zheng Fan's face, shook his head, sighed, and continued:

One of the best talents in the world is in the grass and ninety in the temple. Regardless of the way of civil and military, they all pay attention to selling to the emperor's family.

There are a lot of things that you have accumulated, searched by yourself, racked your brains, and busy yourself, maybe that’s all, it’s better to ask the court directly.

When you give it over, it belongs to the imperial court, but after a long time, it becomes your own.

Benhou felt that General Zheng shouldn't need to teach him the specific reform method, right?

The last general is simple and foolish, but he will think about it day and night, and dare not bother Lord Hou anymore.

This is actually very taboo to say.

Tian Wujing is almost speaking from his own example,

Who originally belonged to the Jingnan Army?

That was the Jingnan Army of the imperial court.

Tian Wujing took over the title of Marquis of Jingnan from his predecessor, Marquis of Jingnan, more than ten years ago.

You know, unlike Zhenbeihou, Zhenbeihou is hereditary and irreplaceable, but Jingnanhou said it was a title before Tian Wujing, but in fact it is more like an official position.

For more than ten years, Tian Wujing directly branded the Jingnan Army with his brand.

All the money and rations for soldiers are provided by the imperial court;

But looking at the present, the Zhenbei Army has been eaten by the imperial court, but the Jingnan Army has become a real independent mountain in the Dayan Army.

Even if the eldest prince led the emperor's order to march eastward, all the generals of the Jingnan Army dared to ignore him directly.

Zheng Fan was really touched in his heart, for Tian Wujing to say these words, it shows that he doesn't want to let himself have a grudge, and hopes that he can take over here in a down-to-earth manner.

Master Hou, the general understands that the general will definitely not disappoint the expectations of the Lord Hou, and will guard the Xueguan well. However, what the general is worried about is that if the general spends several years of hard work, the Xueguan will be restored. After running the business, if you have to change places in the future, wouldn’t it be a loss...

Tian Wujing interrupted Zheng Fan,

smiled,

road:

If you manage well...

paused,

Tian Wujing's eyes showed deep thought,

Who dares to make room for you?
