Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

"Zhongshan Gongyu Wenhu and Pingchang Gongwei Chigang were each honored to hold prominent positions in the Bafu because of their support for the party. Zhongshan Gongyu was a close relative of his son and Pingchang Gong's uncle and nephew. They participated in every plan and made sure to use them in attacks. In times of crisis, they were ordered to go to Yiyang. He actually disobeyed the order and drove the army away, resulting in the loss of the army and the army, as well as the loss of people and land. What a great crime!

Therefore, the two of them deserved punishment and were pardoned. However, when Tang Gong mobilized troops to rescue the people in danger, Zhongshan Gong and others did not refuse violently and did not lose courtesy. After the punishment is over, he will be buried immediately and returned to his home without any additional torture to disturb his family. "

Although everyone had expected that Yu Wenhu and Yu Chigang's execution would be inevitable, when they actually heard about this execution, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

Tang Gong was originally the hegemon's confidant, but the relationship between him and the late Otsuka Zai gradually drifted away. A considerable part of the reason was due to the instigation and instigation of pro-party members such as Yu Wenhu and Yu Chigang. With the death of Yu Wentai, these people are no match for Tang Gong after all, and they are inevitably destined to be eliminated.

However, Tang Gong was still willing to retain some dignity for them when they were dying, and he did not involve their respective families, and he did not lose benevolence and justice in his fierceness, which is also quite touching.

Yu Wenhu and Yu Chigang were originally imprisoned in the side tent. After their sentences were announced, executioners went to the side tent with poisoned wine.

At this time, the atmosphere was still dull and tense. When Zhao Gui heard the official say his name, Dangjie couldn't help but trembled, and immediately left the table in a hurry, bowed without his hat, and said in his mouth: "The sinner Yi Fugui is here."

"Zhu Guo, Nanyang Gongyi Fugui, first fought with the right army of the division at Mang Mountain. He lost his law and left, causing the army to be defeated. He abandoned the division in Baiting. Later, he repeated the bad deeds of abandoning the division in Yiyang and suffered a great loss. It's unreasonable to tolerate him! He has indeed made great contributions to the country in his old career, so he is deprived of an official title and resettled in Xiangzhou. He is not allowed to return to the court without a pardon!"

Zhao Gui couldn't help but tremble every time he heard one of his crimes, and when he heard the final disposition of himself, he felt mixed emotions. He was happy that his life was finally saved, but he was worried that the sentence of being exiled to Xiangzhou would wipe out all his hard work for the rest of his life.

It's not that Zhao Gui was deprived of his official titles. After the Battle of Mangshan in the ninth year of Datong, he was deprived of all his official titles, but he recovered them soon after. But after the official title was deprived this time, there will definitely not be a day when he can rise again.

I recall the time when I led my tribe to escape the chaos in Wuchuan Town and moved inland. After experiencing many hardships and sufferings, I finally found a foothold in Kansai and established a career here with a group of heroes from the township party. But now all the achievements are in the past. And he had to be exiled to a completely unfamiliar place at such an old age. Zhao Gui couldn't help but burst into tears for a while.

He didn't try to beg for mercy, or hold on to Dugu Xin in the hope of being given a lighter sentence, because he knew very well that if he really wanted to do this, he might not even have to go to Xiangzhou anymore. In the end, he could only hold back his tears and bow deeply: "Sinner B, thank you very much, Your Majesty. Thank you, Mr. Tang, for giving me a lighter sentence and saving my life."

Not to mention the feelings of the other people present, when Da Xiwu saw Zhao Gui resigning with a gloomy look and despondency, his mood was tangled and complicated. He clenched his fists frequently but had no choice but to loosen them.

He deliberately wanted to ask Tang Gong why he bullied the old man so much once he came into power. Without the hard work of people like them, where would the Western Wei regime come from? Without these antecedents, why would Duke Tang be so domineering and domineering in front of others today?

But these crazy thoughts were just surging in his mind. Many words were stuck in his throat and he didn't dare to blurt them out. What stuck in his throat was Tang Gong's record of turning defeat into victory, and the suicide of Mo Chenchong, the Marquis of Zhuguo. The bad news at home, as well as the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the camps who were grateful to Duke Tang.

Compared with any of these points, the spirit in his heart seemed insignificant, so when it was his turn to be called, he could only endure the humiliation in his heart, but he still bowed respectfully in the big tent without his hat, and said solemnly The voice said: "The guilty minister Da Xiwu is here."

Da Xiwu was first ordered to attack Heyang Nancheng, but was defeated by Hu Luguang of the Northern Qi Dynasty. After that, he showed little performance in the war. When the generals in Yiyang Jiuqu City discussed whether to stay or go, Da Xiwu did not stop Yu Wenhu and others, but agreed to evacuate. Although there is no need to bear primary responsibility, it cannot be acquitted.

Therefore, Da Xiwu was dismissed from his current official position, and at the same time dismissed from his position as Zhuguo, and became the general manager of Ningzhou, in charge of military and political affairs in the southwest border and southern Sichuan and Yunnan.

"The guilty minister accepts the order. I would like to express my gratitude to Your Majesty and to Duke Tang for not abandoning the minor ministers and still granting them additional services."

Da Xiwu was silent for a while, until the dead silence in the tent gradually began to give off a dangerous atmosphere, and then he kowtowed deeply.

As Da Xiwu kowtowed to accept this punishment, the entire tent was enveloped in an invisible aura.

Since the end of the Great Unification, Yuwentai established a military and political system of six pillars and twelve generals in the Western Wei State based on the political needs and ideas of unifying the internal affairs and following the trend.

Although the posts of Zhu Guo and General were increased, lost, and replaced in the future, this military and political personnel structure was basically inherited. The Zhuzhu states have a transcendent status and great reputation, and the generals also have outstanding merits and important positions. Together, they constitute the highest-level personnel situation in the Western Wei regime.

However, after a series of turbulence, Tang Gong Li Tai came to power, which directly broke this personnel situation. Even Zhu Guo lost his aloofness in front of him and became a criminal under his command.

Only seven days have passed since the beginning of the year, and three pillars of the state, Houmo Chenchong, Zhao Gui, and Da Xiwu, have been punished in different forms and degrees. This is amazing and alert to the changes in the rules of the world.

Even the pillars of the state are difficult to be exempted from sanctions, so it is natural for the other generals of the Zhongwaifu to be punished.

Although these generals may not need to bear such a large responsibility for the defeat to decision makers such as Yuwen Hu according to their respective official positions, they cannot effectively control the orderly withdrawal of their troops during the retreat, and some of them even fled and returned to Tongguan alone. Of course, they are also guilty.

Most of the people who committed this series of dereliction of duty were former Zhongwaifu subordinates. When the punishment was announced, even though the masses knew that Tang Gong was judging according to the facts, it still gave people a feeling that Tang Gong was using this to suppress dissidents.

But even so, the generals could only accept the punishment honestly. Not only because of the fate of Yuwen Hu and several pillars of the country as a reference, but also because during the review just now, they also saw with their own eyes the high prestige and appeal that Tang Gong enjoyed among these soldiers.

Moreover, those soldiers who accepted the review and expressed their loyalty to Tang Gong enthusiastically were not lacking in their own trusted party members. Therefore, during the review just now, these generals of the Central and Foreign Offices also had complicated feelings and felt very strange. Although it was difficult to describe, they always felt that Tang Gong had imposed something on them collectively in front of them.

Li Tai did not impose large sanctions on these generals of the Central and Foreign Offices. He mainly made some reductions in official positions and transferred their posts from Guanzhong to various states and counties in Shannan Road. While exerting the abilities of these people to maintain the military preparations of Shannan Road, it was also convenient for him to build a new military order in Guanzhong.

The review lasted for two days, and after it ended, various related decrees began to be promoted and implemented. After returning to the court, Li Tai ordered Pei Hong, Mao Shijian and Guo Xian to be the land surveyors of the three states, and to quickly examine and count the unowned land in the three states to be used as land granted by the military.

The so-called review of unowned land was of course just a superficial excuse. In fact, if the three pillars of state were dealt with, especially the land, were counted, it was estimated that they could obtain thousands of hectares of land.

It was not that they had so much net assets, but that a pillar was a huge and complex network of relationships, with many students and former officials, plus many people who offered their services under false names. It was not easy to dig out considerable land and property from each of them.

In addition to confiscating the property of these criminal officials, the newly appointed General Wei Xiaokuan of the Left Pushe also sent people to Beijing to report that his family had hundreds of hectares of land in the countryside to help the villagers, and now they were willing to donate it to the court to help establish the Suwei Military Office.

Others, such as Wang Yue and Wang Shu from Jingzhao, also reported that their households had land obtained from the reclamation of wasteland and were willing to donate to the court. Li Tai certainly accepted all such donations, as it was not shameful to raise funds for starting a business.

When he had just arrived in Guanzhong, he had experienced the decree issued by Yuwen Tai's government to grant officials through donations in order to recover the defeat in Mangshan. Now, as the new leader of the government, he has expressed his intention to open up more political resources to these Guanlong tyrants through personnel appointments at the beginning of his tenure. If these Guanlong tyrants did not even express this, it would be too tactless.

Moreover, the military government's grant of land now is obviously to create a new military merit landlord class in the three auxiliary areas through these military organizations and military actions. If these local tyrants in Guanzhong cannot be quick to change, take the initiative to cater to this change and strive for transformation, then even if Li Tai does not impose sanctions on them now, as the military-industrial landlord class grows in the future, the living space of these local tyrants who lag behind the times will eventually become smaller and smaller.

At the same time, the three courts tried the rebellion of Zhongwaifu a few days ago and also reached a verdict: Lueyang Gong Yuwenjue was guilty of usurping power, holding the emperor hostage, killing ministers, setting up cliques, and bullying court officials, and should be executed. All his cliques since the rebellion, including former Zhongwaifu Silu Li Zhi and former Wuwei General Yifu Yongren, were beheaded, and the rest of the cliques who killed people were executed, and those who injured people and violated rituals were exiled to various states in Shannan.

Xiao Sima and Huaining Gong Cai You failed to do their duty as guards, which led to the chaos of the imperial guards and the loss of the emperor, so they were stripped of their official titles and demoted to Sima of Yanhanfang in western Henan. Wuwei General Li Hui and Li Ji were all involved in the rebellion of the court. Although they were not the main plotters, they were also innocent. They were all stripped of their official titles and imprisoned, and were allowed to donate money to redeem their crimes.

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Yuwen Jue and his followers were taken to the execution ground by fully armed soldiers, and many people on both sides of the road ran with them, each filled with righteous indignation and cursing loudly.

Some of these people had suffered from Yuwen Jue's brutal persecution, and they were filled with righteous indignation when they saw Yuwen Jue, and there were also people who had been lured by his daughters, and they used this to draw a clear line.

The head of this legitimate son of Yuwen Tai rolled to the ground with a knife cut off on the execution ground, ending his not-so-long life. The spectators around saw the blood gushing out, and they all clapped their hands to make peace.

On the same day, the funeral of Dugu Xin, the Grand Marshal who had been harmed by him, was also held, and the long funeral procession stretched from Chang'an to Weibei. There were endless sacrificial tents along the way, flags like forests, and cries filled the fields. Emperor Yuan Kuo also went to the city gate to see him off in person. Duke Tang Li Tai even led the civil and military officials to the Weibei Cemetery to cry and mourn. It was a very honorable occasion.

The previous plot has come to an end. Regardless of whether it was completed well or not, I am relieved. This important plot spans the years before and after. It was not very easy to write, and my energy was limited. I am really sorry that I was not able to make it more exciting. The temperature has been changing in recent days, and I have had a cold for several days, which has not healed, and I have suffered from stuffy nose and dizziness. However, the plot has not yet come to an end, and I have not dared to slack off. I will update one chapter today, and take a day off tomorrow to adjust my status and continue the subsequent updates. Everyone, please pay attention to keeping warm from the cold. I wish you good health and a happy life! ! !
