Han Shizu

Chapter 157 Lidong Class Teacher
Liu Chengyou saw the huge benefits hidden behind Liu Zhiyuan's edict at a glance. Although it is definitely a hard job to deal with the aftermath of Yedu, those who are really ambitious will not find it too hard. It is clear that they can take the opportunity to earn a lot of fame. Will actively do it.The key is to agree on military merits. This is an opportunity for him to be kind to the soldiers and buy the morale of the soldiers.

This arrangement is quite different from the previous actions of guarding against and suppressing.Liu Chengyou himself was genuinely surprised.He couldn't even help wondering whether the old father's arrangement was intended to test himself, or...
Regardless of what he thinks in his heart, Liu Chengyou is not ambiguous at all when he does things, and he is more attentive.Although Yedu is large, it is obviously not easy to accommodate [-] troops, and it is even more inconvenient. With Liu Chengyou's power in hand, the first order was to transfer most of the Han troops out of the city to guard and surrender, leaving only the necessary troops in the city. , control the city and maintain law and order.

Although the outside of the city is not as comfortable as the inside of the city, but fortunately the camps are fully equipped. In order to launch a fatal blow, a large amount of supplies have been stockpiled, and there is no shortage of solid supplies. Although the weather is cold, there are sufficient heating materials such as firewood and charcoal.Liu Chengyou's majesty before had frightened the army, and he didn't dare to have any objections. In addition, Liu Chengyou asked the grain officer to bring out a large amount of grain, meat, and rare spirits to reward the army.

On Anmin's side, Liu Chengyou was assisted by several civil officials who accompanied him and Wang Min, the Wei Bo Jiedu Tuiguan who surrendered.Anmin, it is difficult to say, easy to say, as long as there is food.In fact, after half a day of turmoil, as long as the "bandit soldiers" of the imperial court stopped plundering, the soldiers and people in the city would be greatly merciful, and there would be no chaos at all.

When Du Chongwei was in power, he oppressed the scholars and people too much. Liu Chengyou requested an order to directly abolish all kinds of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes he set up.Some officials with good official reputation were selected to publicize the kindness of the imperial court to bring order out of chaos in the city. Recently, Liu Chengyou's idea of ​​forming a propaganda organization has become stronger and stronger.

Then came the benefits.Prior to this, Du Chongwei took all the food from the soldiers and the common people for military supplies. The people in the city were hungry and exhausted for a long time, and most of them were deserted. They had died of freezing and starvation.In view of this, Liu Chengyou opened the government treasury to collect food and fodder to help the suffering people in the city. Although Yedu government treasury did not have much left, this small favor was enough to win the hearts of the people.

Some things are useless by talking about them, as long as they are put into practice and others see it, right and wrong can be judged freely in one's heart.Liu Chengyou only did two things in Yedu, cracking down on lawlessness, giving money to the common people, and establishing prestige. After three or two days, he was called His Royal Highness King Zhou.

In the evaluation of the meritorious service of the soldiers, Liu Chengyou appeared to be more cautious, and such matters should not be sloppy.There is a record of merits and demerits in the army. Those who have made merits and demerits before and after the war, as long as there are examinations, they are basically recorded in the book.After Liu Chengyou received the files submitted by the various armies, he basically read them carefully.

In the process of specific operations, Liu Chengyou convened the generals and schools of the army to discuss and discuss together. Moreover, he only participated in the narration of the generals and schools above the battalion command, and strived to achieve merits and rely on mistakes, so that no one complained.If he hears that there are dissenters, Liu Chengyou personally summons them to have a "heart-to-heart" conversation with them.
In fact, Liu Chengyou's goal is to win over these middle-level officers, who can best determine the attributes of an army.As for the merits and demerits of the officers and soldiers below the battalion, he will only make the final judgment, even though all the armies are commanded.In this way, he can not only save his effort, but also benefit the generals of the army. After all, they all pointed out that they also need to show kindness to the soldiers under their command.

Although it is impossible to achieve absolute fairness in some treatment methods, Liu Chengyou is aiming at relative fairness, at least stabilizing most people.Of course, for those who have crossed the bottom line, such as falsely reporting military exploits, once they are discovered, the only way to rectify the military is to kill them
Yedu's military and political measures were complicated and complicated, but Liu Chengyou didn't appear to be in a hurry at all. Yu Wenwu took care of his work, and handled everything in an orderly manner, always calmly.Everything, no matter good or bad, can always find a solution from him, at least there is a direction.

However, within three or two days, the situation in Yedu gradually stabilized.
Although Liu Zhiyuan entrusted general affairs to Liu Chengyou, he didn't ignore things at all, otherwise, in the eyes of others, there might be something wrong with him as an emperor.However, with Liu Chengyou sharing the burden for him, he really felt relieved.And Liu Zhiyuan saw all of Liu Chengyou's performance, and he didn't express any opinions after listening to the reports from the people below.

As mentioned earlier, although the official treasury of Yedu lacked food and fodder, Du Chongwei's private treasury contained a lot of goods.After capturing the Jiedu Yamen, a large amount of food, silk, gold and silver utensils were found from his family treasury. The first day was not counted, and it was not checked until the third day.

"From Du Ni's ten private treasuries, a total of 200,000 dendrobiums of wheat, [-] dendrobiums of millet, [-] dans of flour, [-] pieces of silk, [-] coins, and [-] boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, and famous utensils were obtained. When Su Fengji reported, he buried his head very low, his voice trembled slightly, and his eyes were red with a color of greed.

In autumn, there is only a small tail left. Because of the autumn rain in the past few days, the weather is frighteningly cold.In a pavilion in the Jiedu Yamen, Liu Zhiyuan and Liu Chengyou, father and son, sat and drank tea and talked with each other. Listening to Su Fengji's report, both of them were stunned for a moment.He took a deep breath, but it was hard to cool off the heat in his heart.

"There are so many!" Liu Zhiyuan said with a slightly hoarse voice.

Liu Chengyou was also a little amazed: "This Du Chongwei's ability to accumulate is so amazing!"

"It is said that this is Du Chongwei, who spent ten years of hard work in all the prefectures of Lizhen! I heard that when the Khitan Kuo borrowed money and food, he tried his best to offend the Khitan people and asked the Khitan Lord to avoid it. It turns out that this person has hidden treasures So rich." Su Fengji said.

There was a bit of envy in his tone, but also a hint of shame.Since he entered Bian and became the prime minister of the great Han Dynasty, he has gained a lot. Among the officials of the Han court, he thinks that he has accumulated the most money, and he often has a sense of self-satisfaction.Compared with Du Chongwei now, he is simply a local rich man.

Although Du Chongwei's collection was abundant, it was not enough to move Liu Chengyou's face. In Luancheng, what he took from the Khitan people was ten times more than this.

What really surprised Liu Chengyou was that with so much money and food, he would rather lock it in the treasury than reward the soldiers. He really couldn't understand what kind of psychology it was.

"If Du Chongwei used his food and wealth to reward the soldiers, it would be really difficult for the big man to take Yedu!" Liu Chengyou said with emotion. "It's just that now, it's cheap for a big man. The imperial treasury is empty. Didn't you still have a headache to reward the soldiers before? This is enough, and it can also make up for the depletion of the treasury during this war."

Regardless of Du Chongwei's notoriety, as long as he is willing, there are plenty of people in Wei Bo's army who are willing to work for him.Having money and food is king.

"Seal up the money and food for the time being, and send special personnel to guard it closely, and deal with it later!" Liu Zhiyuan ordered.

"Yes!" Su Fengji retreated in response.

Liu Chengyou looked at his back, but secretly suspected in his heart that this person was greedy, and there was a high probability that he would commit corruption.

"Du Chongwei, I was ashamed to be in the same rank with him when the Shi Jin was first built!" Liu Zhiyuan's tone was full of mockery, and he still despises Du Chongwei: "This man is mediocre, he only serves as a ghost relative, and he is not successful enough. There is more than enough to reveal. In my great Han world, I still don’t know the number of days, and I want to fight against the court in vain, causing me so much trouble, I don’t deserve to die!”

"What's the name of the Ye Bingya General who took Du Chongwei's head?" Liu Zhiyuan asked.

Liu Chengyou replied: "Lu Duanyu."

"Although he is a traitor, it is despicable, but Yu Dahan has merit!" Liu Zhiyuan said: "We should also fulfill the promise of the imperial court and make him the new Marquis of Feng!"

To Liu Zhiyuan and his son, being a Marquis is not a big deal, just a small character who has a bit of courage and seized the opportunity.After pondering for a while, Liu Zhiyuan looked at Liu Chengyou who was sitting in front of him, and said, "I am very satisfied with your handling of the aftermath in the past few days!"

"I'm also trembling, I've lived up to the trust of the officials, I'm satisfied!" Liu Chengyou said softly.

Liu Zhiyuan frowned, and scolded: "You and my father and son, why should you say such modest words!"

"Yes!" Liu Chengyou replied.

"Agreement on military merits, how many veteran generals have performed well?" He asked casually after taking a sip of hot tea.

Liu Chengyou nodded, and put out a few: "Fengguo commanded Liu Ci and Wang Yin, both have generals, command troops well, and fight bravely. They were unsuccessful in attacking the city before, and led the army to fight. Wang Yin was hit by an arrow in the face. It was as usual, and then the arrowhead fell into his mouth. He was so bloody and courageous, he was a real hero. Xing Jiexiang commanded Du Hanhui, took the lead, and went to the city to fight. He was hit by a few arrows, and he was severely injured. He continued to fight, and the spectators were strong."

Hearing this, Liu Zhiyuan gave some instructions: "I have heard about Liu Ci, Wang Yin, and Du Hanhui, and they are all good generals. They are new to our court and fight against treason for the country, but they can do their best and do their best. These are all pure people, so please comfort them well, and don’t chill the hearts of loyal ministers!"

Liu Zhiyuan's voice was full of vigor, and it seemed to be an educational tone to Liu Chengyou.In fact, without Liu Zhiyuan's teaching, Liu Chengyou himself knew how to do it.

"I have decided that on the day of the beginning of winter, the class teacher will return to court!" Liu Zhiyuan looked at Liu Chengyou and asked him for advice: "Wei Bo's side is seriously damaged, but it is still the most important thing in the country. Who do you think is in charge? "

When asked, Liu Chengyou thought for a while and replied, "How is Mr. Gao Ling?"

A smile appeared on Liu Zhiyuan's face: "What my son thinks coincides with mine! Gao Xingzhou, you can use it!"

"I want to use Guo Rong as the military governor of Chanzhou!" Liu Zhiyuan said suddenly again, as if he was giving Liu Chengyou a favor.

"Huh?" Liu Chengyou was not happy, but there was a trace of hesitation on his face: "Guo Rong is young, so, did he rise too fast?"

"Zhao Kuangzan is even younger than Guo Rong, and I entrust him as a military commander. Guo Wenzhong and his son have made great contributions to the country, so they can't be rewarded!" Liu Zhiyuan said lightly.

"I'm on behalf of Guo Rong, thanks to the officials!" Liu Chengyou said, not hiding his close relationship with Guo Rong.

The imperial edict came down soon, and Liu Zhiyuan named Gao Xingzhou the king of Linqing who stayed behind in Yedu.Unexpectedly, Gao Xingzhou refused to accept his resignation.

　Thanks for the big account being sealed with the trumpet, Sun Liansheng, Shaoyang Taiyi, Brother Fenghua, Li Chuang, the thief, and the typical family for their rewards.
