Governor please stay

"Chen Baxian? Is this guy still alive?"

Liu Yishou asked with a strange face.

He was stunned, but he didn't expect that it would be Chen Baxian who was making things difficult for him.In my own impression, Chen Baxian went to sea and disappeared after the defeat of Guangzhou. There are rumors that the ship encountered a storm at sea and then sank.

Unexpectedly, after a period of dormancy, this guy started to make trouble again!

"You have Clippers in your hands, can't you catch up?"

Liu Yishou asked with a grim expression.This time he was slapped in the face, and it was still in Jingkou, which is a short distance away from Jiankang. It would be a great shame if he couldn't get back the place.

Others might be able to tolerate this kind of thing, but Liu Yishou couldn't.

He won't get used to Chen Baxian. It didn't matter if he let the other party die in the past, but now, he can only be tortured and served.

"Returning to my lord, we have the advantage on the river, but those small boats are useless when we get to the sea. We also don't have charts, and going to sea is extremely risky, so we can't chase those bandit ships. Please forgive me, lord."

Wu Mingche mentioned a blind spot in Liu Yishou's current knowledge.

River boats are different from sea boats!The warships that fly on the surface of the river and in the river may become hot chickens when they go out to sea.

Most of the sea-going ships of the imperial court are now in Fujian and Zhejiang, in the dock on Wang Sengbian's side, not in Jiankang.

"Okay, the river will be closely guarded in the near future, and all ships of unknown origin will be interrogated. Go to your own business."

Liu Yishou waved his hands impatiently, and Wu Mingche stepped back as if he had received an amnesty.

"It's not a big deal, but it's troublesome."

Looking at the Yangtze River in the distance, Liu Yishou sighed softly, in a terrible mood.

At this time, Jingkou was almost equivalent to a seaport.In his previous life, Shanghai and other places were all tidal flats, and the land was formed by alluvial sediment later.Therefore, Jiankang and Jingkou (Zhenjiang) at this time are far closer to the coast than in previous lives.

It can even be said that Jingkou is a seaport in this era!

"Decree to reprimand Wang Sengbian, saying that Jingkou and Guangling have been attacked again and again, does he have to wait for the pirates to kill Jiming Mountain before he is willing to put his heart into suppressing the bandits?

Let him move quickly, don't have the thought of raising his own self-esteem!He can't be the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, so I'll replace him with someone else.

The pirate leader is Chen Baxian, let Wang Sengbian figure it out for himself! "

Liu Yishou ordered in a deep voice, his dissatisfaction was beyond words.

"Okay my lord, let's do it here."

Wang Wei also knew that Liu Yishou was really angry this time, so he didn't dare to be negligent, so he quickly wrote the imperial edict, sent someone to Taicheng, and sent it to Fujian and Zhejiang from the Ministry of Education.

"By the way, post notices in Wu Xing, especially in Chen Baxian's hometown, and send more people to watch out for them. It is impossible for one person to succeed without the support of people from his hometown! There must be many people in Wu Xing who are with Chen Baxian. Private."

……

Yu Wentai, who is building a warship in Guangzhou and is about to do some "big things", let alone talk about it. After all, he is not in a bad mood. Suppressing the Fujian and Zhejiang sea bandits is nothing to him. There is nothing wrong with nephews paving the way.

However, Wang Sengbian, who frantically built warships in the waters near Houguancheng in Jin'an County (Fuzhou), and was about to go to sea to "suppress bandits", had a hard time.

Especially when he learned that Chen Baxian was the one who called the wind and rain along the coast, and that this guy was lucky enough to go to the vicinity of Jiankang to provoke him, Wang Sengbian was in a state of panic all day long, for fear that Liu Yishou would directly remove him from the position of governor.

But what should come, good or bad, will eventually come.The decree reprimanded by the imperial court was sent to Wang Sengbian. After reading it, he was relieved.

The good news is that Liu Yishou will not dismiss him for investigation, and Wang Sengbian is still in charge of military affairs in Fujian, Zhejiang and other places.

The bad news is that Liu Yishou's patience seems to have reached its limit. If something serious happens again, maybe the other party will not be as easy to talk to as this time.As a surrendered general, Wang Sengbian knew that he could be used in this way.

He could only hug Liu Yishou's thigh tightly, otherwise there would be no place in the world for him.

"Brother, King Wu seems very angry."

After reading the imperial decree, Wang Sengbian's younger brother Wang Sengzhi said with anxiety.

"That's natural. No one will have a good temper."

Wang Sengbian sighed helplessly and said, what Wang Sengzhi said was all nonsense, but he was powerless to complain at the moment, and he was too lazy to tell the other party those details.

The problem of Fujian and Zhejiang is not in Fujian and Zhejiang, but in the Sanwu area.Today's Fujian and Zhejiang have not experienced the development of the Southern Song Dynasty, and many places are wild lands.The root cause of the constant sea troubles is that some people in Sanwu colluded with those pirates, and the battlefield was unilaterally transparent.

It's not that Wang Sengbian can't fight, but he has to guard against being taken over by others.If you look forward and backward, how can you seize the opportunity to fight?If you rush forward regardless of the enemy's situation, it is very likely that the entire army will be wiped out in an ambush.

It will take time for him to build a fleet that can go to sea and train soldiers who can adapt to the sea conditions!

"Brother, in fact, knowing that the leader of the bandit is Chen Baxian's uncle and nephew, things are easier to handle."

Wang Sengzhi said calmly.

"Oh? What do you think?"

Wang Sengbian suddenly became interested.As my younger brother, he doesn't really have the ability to fight, but he has a lot of crooked ideas on weekdays.

"Chen Baxian is from Wuxing, and he is very famous in the village. His ancestors all lived in Wuxing. We should do both. On the one hand, we will dig up all the graves of the Chen family's ancestors, which will anger Chen Baxian. Those who knew Chen Baxian were all tied up and escorted to Jin'an County. After a while, they killed several people in the name of fornicating pirates.

In this way, Chen Baxian must be angry and attack the city.He is provoked, isn't our chance coming? "

Wang Sengzhi laughed.

While the idea is a bit outrageous, it does seem to have some truth to it.

Wang Sengbian was lost in thought, Wang Sengzhi's bad idea was really bad, but it's better for the Chen family to be unlucky than Wang Sengbian's own family, right?

"Don't be so rough. Excavate all the graves of Chen's ancestors. You can take someone to do it directly.

However, if we kidnap the villagers there to Jin'an County, I'm afraid it will backfire and make us feel guilty, so we just need to keep them under close surveillance, and there is no need to do unnecessary things. "

Wang Sengbian disagreed with Wang Sengzhi's second method, venting his anger on ordinary people would only make neutral people seek refuge with Chen Baxian to protect themselves because they were afraid of the court's wrath.

If it was just to dig the ancestral grave of the Chen family, firstly, no one was killed, no innocent people were injured, and secondly, it was also a warning to those who follow the thieves, which would definitely make Chen Ba be in a hurry for a while.

As long as the other party gets into a mess, the opportunity may come out by itself!

"Brother, this is the kindness of a woman..."

Wang Sengzhi said somewhat unwillingly.My eldest brother is a person with real skills, but sometimes he is hesitant to do things.

"King Wu doesn't like what you're doing, so you won't be wrong if you listen to me."

Wang Sengbian patted Wang Sengzhi on the shoulder and said.

……

Wang Sengbian gave an order, and the brigade went to Wuxing. Regardless of the opposition of the local elders, they directly dug up the ancestral grave of Chen Baxian's family, and asked the local county government to change the county annals and delete all the previous achievements of the Chen family. It will not be recorded, and Chen Baxian's current deeds will be recorded as a negative example.

In a word: Wu Xing and the Chen clan are all rebellious, committing all kinds of evil, especially Chen Baxian.

While doing these "little things", Wang Sengbian repeatedly urged all the shipyards in Jin'an County to speed up shipbuilding, and the surrounding coastal areas were in full swing.

Chapter 659 Trees move to death, people move to live

This year, in the difficult Guanzhong, amidst the accumulated time and time, finally ushered in the civil unrest that broke the order.

He Bayue was able to unify Guanzhong at the beginning, but he was able to subdue all the people from all walks of life.In particular, many nomadic peoples in Guanzhong were convinced and dissatisfied with He Bayue, among which the Qiang and Di people were the most.

March is the time of spring plowing, and it should be the season of hard sowing, intensive cultivation and anticipation of harvest throughout the year.However, Fu Anshou, a Di native from Nanqi Prefecture (Fengyang, Shaanxi Province), claimed to be King Taibai, captured Wudu (south of Longnan City, Gansu Province), and Guanzhong was shaken!

Since He Bayue unified Guanzhong, there has never been a case where a local tycoon conquered a city and occupied one side.

Knowing that Wudu had fallen, He Bayue hurriedly discussed with Su Chuo, led He Basheng, Da Xiwu and others to organize the army, and hastily summoned a small number of elite troops to counter the rebellion.

Because the enemy took the lead, they set up an ambush on the only way from Chang'an to Wudu, and this position was very dangerous. He Bayue and others led their troops to attack many times but failed to win.

Therefore, He Bayue had to order the whole army to camp and confront the enemy, waiting for the opportunity to defeat the enemy.

During the many battles, He Bayue's army suffered losses.

He Bayue and others were surprised to find that the army's offensive ability was much worse than before the reorganization of the Fubing, which made them very anxious.

But He Bayue had no choice but to send troops for reinforcements.

Before the reorganization of the Fubing was completed, troops had to be dispatched, which caused serious sequelae. The Fubing, who had gradually adapted to the new establishment, had to call out elite soldiers.

As a result, the rest of the government soldiers are full of fish, unbearable to drive, and need to go through longer training in Zhechong Mansion.

In fact, this problem also appeared in the history of Liu Yishou's previous life.Emperor Yu Wenyong of the Northern Zhou Dynasty discovered that when the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty faced small-scale battles, a single army soldier might not be able to win the battle against the elite soldiers of the opponent.

If a large number of government soldiers are pulled out to fight, it seems that it is too mobilizing to mobilize the army and waste food and grass in vain.Yuwenhu's 20 troops stormed Luoyang, but were defeated by Duan Shao's thousand elite cavalry. Although there were various factors, it is an indisputable fact that the grassroots of the government soldiers were stretched and the elite were scattered.

It is a common practice in the past dynasties to gather elite soldiers from various ministries and use them. Naturally, there is a reason for everyone to follow this path.

So later Yu Wenyong proposed to separate the elite personnel from the Fubing to form the imperial army, thinking of them as the guards.On weekdays, he is an officer in the army, and when necessary, he can form an army alone and participate in major military operations.

Half of them are on duty, and half of them participate in training in specialized institutions in Chang'an, and they are rotated every once in a while. This system lasted until the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Now the government military system created by He Bayue is still in the process of adjustment, similar problems have just erupted, and no better solution has been thought of.This time the troops were dispatched for more than ten days, but they still could not break the deadlock.

However, what He Bayue didn't know was that in the secret room of a mansion in Chang'an City, a plan against him was also in full swing.

The soldiers of Beizhen, whether it is Wuchuan Town, where He Bayue was elected as the commander, or Huaishuo Town, where Gao Huan was elected as the commander, are very special groups in the history of the Southern and Northern Dynasties.

At the beginning of the establishment of this group, the interpersonal relationship was relatively equal.The status among the members is all based on military merits, and those who are not capable of fighting naturally have no status.

This group of people is practical, and they use marriage as a bond to jointly elect the speaker, and they can obey the leader's order on the surface.

In other words, it doesn't matter to them how the leader is. The subordinates are under their control and have considerable flexibility.Loyalty to the leader is not a group creed.

If the leader doesn't work, change to another leader.He Bayue is gone, and it is the same for Yu Wentai.There is no such thing as "true loyalty" among these people, and there is nothing like it in the first place.

To put it simply, Da Xiwu from another town is actually more loyal to He Bayue than Hou Mo, Chen Shun, Li Hu and others in terms of personal feelings, and the relationship between each other is more like friends and superiors.

But for Hou Mo, Chen Shun, Li Hu, Kou Luo and others who came out of Wuchuan Town, He Bayue is not necessarily the superior and the lord.

It is more appropriate to say that they are colleagues.

Now, these people gathered together to discuss the election of a new leader and...getting He Bayue down.Of course, the end of resignation is death.

"Now that He Bayue is implementing the military system, he wants to get rid of all our parts. If the military system is implemented, then we will all become generals with only a few soldiers around us, and all the benefits belong to He Bayue. I I think it can't go on like this!

He Bayue is no longer our big brother! "

Hou Mo and Chen Chong slapped the table excitedly and shouted.The faces looked a bit hideous.

Everyone present was expressionless, but they did not refute Hou Mo and Chen Chong who acted impulsively.

What He Bayue wants is "family world". The army belongs to the country, and the country belongs to my family.

No one can tolerate this fundamental contradiction.Historically, the Guanlong Group from the Northern Zhou Dynasty to the Sui and Tang Dynasties has always followed this rule.

They can tolerate the reorganization of the Fubing for a few years, all because of the hardships in Guanzhong, it is impossible not to hold a group to keep warm!

But now that Li Bi is dead, the power of Feiwuchuan Township has been greatly weakened, and the local tyrants in Guanlong are not He Bayue's diehard loyalists themselves.He Bayue's cronies, such as Da Xiwu, do not account for the majority.

So taking advantage of the opportunity of He Bayue leading the army to go out this time, Hou Mo, Chen Shun, Li Hu and others gathered together to discuss how to deal with He Bayue better.

Do you choose a newcomer after killing them silently, or... just do the opposite?

Both of these can be considered, but there is a prerequisite that He Bayue must not exist any longer.

"There are indeed some problems with the reformation of the military system like this. At that time, we can't even command a single soldier. A word from He Bayue can make us go home and think about our mistakes behind closed doors.

If we wait until that day, how should we deal with it? "

Li Hu asked calmly.

He has a hole card, but can't turn it out.If you can turn over the cards for others to see, is that still called the hole card?

Li Hu's meaning is very simple: He Bayue's "family world" in Guanzhong is not good for playing like this, which seriously violates the vital interests of "old brothers".If He Bayue really waited for He Bayue to completely complete the reform of the government soldiers, the organizational system of each army would be disrupted at that time, and if he wanted to resist at that time, he would have no strength to resist.

What Li Hu said made a lot of sense. Zhao Gui, Hou Mo, Chen Chong, and Dugu Xin didn't understand this truth in Liu Yishou's previous history, so they were cut off by Yu Wenhu in the end.

It has to be said that Li Hu's words reached everyone's heart.

Sooner or later, the trilogy under their command will be completely reorganized into the Fubing sequence.When that day comes, they will be veritable polished commanders.

"Right now, wars are raging everywhere, and wars are still raging. If He Bayue died suddenly, there would be chaos in Guanzhong, and we may not have the ability to clean up the situation."

Hou Mo Chen Shun, the elder brother of Hou Mo Chen Chong, said in a deep voice, obviously he disagreed with killing He Bayue now.

But he didn't say that He Bayue didn't deserve to die!

"He Bayue is the leader elected by my generation, if you kill him rashly, will it..."

Kou Luo asked hesitantly.

His father, Kou Yanshou, was the town general of Wuchuan, and he was very important under He Bayue's command.But Kou Luo has always been low-key and doesn't like to participate in government affairs. It is really the first time that he sits with Hou Mo, Chen Shun and others to discuss important matters of life and death.

"Did he treat us as brothers when he changed the government's military system?"

Hou Mo and Chen Chong patted the table excitedly and asked.

"Look, so many people died in the last battle in Luoyang! How did He Bayue repay us? Dilute our part, mix in some newly recruited Guan Longhao's right part, and let those people restrict us , is this treating us as good brothers?
