Han Shizu

Chapter 620 Sending troops to attack Shu
"Your Majesty, all the festivals of Yongxing, Jingnan, Baoyi, Heyang, Weisheng, Pinglu, Yiwu, and Henghai are gone, and now Xiangzhou, Yanzhou, Beizhou, Caizhou and other prefectures and towns have come to petition one after another. No. From now on, the big man will never have to worry about Fang Zhen again!" Zhao Tie packed up the memorials that Liu Chengyou had reviewed, and said with ease.

This time, the towns of Xiangzhou, Yanzhou, Beizhou, etc. submitted their resignations one after another. In politics, or in the army, there is no one-brained order to force them to adopt them.The most active and pioneer is Guo Wei, the governor of Xiangzhou.

After watching Guo Weiwei's performance, Liu Chengyou unconsciously showed a little joy on his face. It seems that Guo Wei has gone farther and wider on the road of being a loyal and good man.

A letter of resignation is certainly satisfactory, but Liu Chengyou still kept calm and said: "This is just the beginning, representing the attitude of the local feudal towns, but more importantly, it is the implementation in the future. After the military and government are completely separated, I will congratulate you." Bar!"

"Yes!" Hearing this, Zhao Wei put away his smile, cupped his hands and said respectfully: "Your Majesty is calm and calm, and I admire you so much!"

Hearing this compliment, Liu Chengyou couldn't help but cast a glance at Zhao Wei, only to see him waiting there with a humble and submissive attitude.The corner of his mouth twitched, and Liu Chengyou ordered: "All requests for military affairs and defense will be accepted! The Political Affairs Hall, the Ministry of Officials and the Privy Council will follow the example of the past and make proper arrangements for the military and political officials in various places to ensure a smooth transition between the military and the government!"

"Obey!" Zhao Ni wrote down the emperor's instructions seriously.

"Besides, at present, there is only Shuofang Jiedu envoy Shi Hongzhao left, and there is no list!" Zhao Wei added.

Eyebrows were lightly fixed, and immediately stretched, Liu Chengyou said: "Shuofang Road is far away, far away in the northwest, and transportation is inconvenient. Moreover, the situation in the border of Lingzhou is complicated. It's not like the town of Neizhou, but it's not in a hurry!"

After pondering for a while, he said again: "However, no matter how the frontier is, it is also under the rule of the great Han. In the future, even if it is not in the heart, it will be in the arms. The military and political arrangements should also be controlled by it. In the Ministry of Officials, first arrange some young officials , went to Lingzhou to take a post and assist in the management of civil affairs."

Speaking of this, Liu Chengyou's thoughts diverged, and he added: "Also, in the future, officials in partial states like Lingzhou will be the first to compete with the imperial court!"

Raising his eyes, Zhao Wei still had a calm expression on his face, and he agreed meticulously.

Liu Chengyou asked: "Is there a chapter in the Privy Council on the reorganization of the Northern Army?"

"Return to Your Majesty!" Zhao Yu said: "The King of Chenliu and the two ministers Li and Pan have already started to reorganize the training. The food and grain are supported by Hebei, the soldiers are suppressed by military envoys, and your Majesty's grace is combined. Even if there are waves, it should be safe. In addition, The Forbidden Army, which was transferred to the north, has already been dispatched!"

"Yeah!" Liu Chengyou nodded in response, and ordered: "This matter should be paid special attention to, but if there is any progress, report it to me!"

"Yes!"

After asking about military affairs, Liu Chengyou couldn't help casting his eyes on Zhao Yu, and asked him in a questioning tone: "Zhao Yu, I have some doubts, and I hope to clarify them!"

There was a hint of scrutiny in the eyes of the emperor, Zhao Wei was startled, his face was respectful, and he bowed: "Excuse me, Your Majesty!"

"At your age, you are so calm and serious, and you are so considerate. I am very happy. However, I always feel that you seem to be too cautious, especially to me, you are a little too respectful. I am very curious, what makes you so Cautious, like walking on thin ice?"

Hearing this question, Zhao Wei's expression became more serious, and he bowed his back more deeply. He said: "Before I entered the official position, I was just a scholar with little knowledge and insufficient ability. However, I have cultivated blessings for several generations, and I am trusted by your majesty. The scholar Chongzheng accepted the decree, and virtue is not worthy, so he is a minister. The minister is grateful, but also sincere and terrified.

The hands of the ministers are all state affairs, and they dare not make any mistakes or omissions.In order not to disappoint His Majesty's trustworthy grace, I have to be cautious in everything."

Hearing his confession, Liu Chengyou couldn't help smiling, and there was something unpredictable in his eyes.Liu Chengyou believed Zhao Xizhi's words, but he could also feel that he still had some reservations in his heart.

But he didn't force him too much, Liu Chengyou withdrew his gaze, and said in a loud voice: "I have heard that your father, Mr. Zhao, sometimes has unrestrained behavior. In this respect, you should learn from him. Be careful and conscientious, which is commendable. But don't be too nervous. After all, I am not a tiger and a bear, and I will not eat you!"

"Your Majesty's instruction, I will keep it in mind!" Zhao Wei bowed respectfully, and then returned to that appearance.

Seeing this, Liu Chengyou shook his head, and asked again: "I heard that you are unwell, how is it?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern!" Zhao Wei responded flattered, "It's just a minor illness, after taking medicine, it has recovered!"

"Your brother died young, and now he is the only son. Apart from fulfilling his duty and being loyal, he also needs to be filial and cared for. Take care of your health!" Liu Chengyou said.

There was a touch of emotion in Zhao Wei's eyes: "Yes!"

"You step back!"

Let Zhang Dejun squeeze his shoulders to relieve his fatigue, get up and walk to the map.It's almost summer, the weather is fine, the bright sunshine shines into the palace through the doors and windows, and casts on Liu Chengyou, warming the body and mind.

And it took Liu Chengyou a quarter of an hour to stop, and his eyes were naturally on Qin Feng's place.Last year, if it wasn't for the successive disasters in autumn, Liu Chengyou would have started in the southwest.Up to now, the delay has been nearly a year, but it also gave Hanting more time to prepare.

At this time, great achievements have been made in the military and political reorganization in the Han Dynasty, and Liu Chengyou can't hold back the urge to use troops.

"Zhang Dejun!"

"The little one is here. What orders does the official have?"

"In the afternoon, all ministers, chief officials of ministries, and generals of the two divisions will discuss matters in the Chongzheng Palace!" Liu Chengyou said calmly.

In the afternoon, in the Chongzheng Hall, dozens of civil and military people gathered together, and the most powerful people in the Han Dynasty all stood respectfully in front of the emperor.Liu Chengyou sat high on the table, glanced around, and said immediately: "I summoned all the civil and military officials here, and some people even guessed the purpose. Taking advantage of the national calamity in the Central Plains, the Meng clan brazenly sent troops to invade and occupy the four prefectures of Qin and Feng. We have been stealing our territory for a long time, and now that the preparations have been made properly, I plan to send troops to attack Shu. Today, we will discuss in this hall about dispatching troops!"

Liu Chengyou's words set the tone of this palace meeting.In fact, the civil and military ministers of the great Han Dynasty were not surprised at all. They had expected it long ago, and no one expressed objection.

Under the concerted efforts of the top and bottom, the time for the expedition to Shu, the mobilization of soldiers and horses, and the transportation of food and equipment were quickly drawn up.As for the coach of Fashu, there were some objections. The veterans preferred Wang Jing for various reasons. Liu Chengyou also wavered for a moment, but finally strengthened his determination and chose to support Xiang Xun.

In the seventh year of Qianyou, after the beginning of summer, a large number of forbidden troops, food, clothing, and ordnance were sent in batches on the official road from Tokyo to Fengxiang, making final preparations for the attack on Shu.

After the palace garden, Meng Chang, the lord of Shu, was enjoying the coolness in the Maha Pond, accompanied by Mrs. Huarui, feeding melons and fruits, and gently shaking the fan.However, it was difficult to explain Meng Chang's hotness, and ice cubes were placed around it several times.

Meng Changsu didn't like summer because it was so hot that he couldn't stand it. At this time, he was unlined and bare-chested. Looking at Concubine Xu Hui, who was alluring in the thin gown, he gasped a little, and said, "This scorching heat is really annoying, and it's hard to sleep on. My lady, you How about I build a palace on the Moha Pond for us to relax and enjoy the cool air in the future?"

"Here." Concubine Xu Hui's bright eyes showed a little hesitation, and she whispered authentically: "I heard that there may be war in the north, the country is in emergency, and your lord is in the palace, so it's inconvenient to start this civil engineering project."

"Hey!" Meng Chang waved his hand and said, "It's always been said that the Northern Han Dynasty is going to invade the army. It's been two years since they shouted, but there is still no mobilization of troops. Ministers, they have already become frightened birds. If there is any movement in the Han army, they will do big things. Besides, The imperial court has deployed so many soldiers and horses in Qinfeng and Xingyuan Mansion, and there are dangerous mountains and rivers, it is nothing to worry about!"

After Meng Chang finished speaking, he discussed with him the requirements that the palace should meet.
"Your Majesty, the ministers are asking to see you!" The servant came to report: "I have something important to report!"

Being forcibly pulled out of Wenrou Township, Meng Chang met with his officials a little displeased, and asked, "What's the urgent matter? Is the Northern Han Dynasty mobilizing troops again?"

"Your Majesty! The Northern Han Dynasty has officially dispatched troops!" Privy Envoy Wang Zhaoyuan replied with a nod.
