Prime Minister

money?alienation?
Then push from the salt banknotes to the strategy of making summer and Qingtang.

Cai Jing and Cai Bian admired Zhang Yue's words from the bottom of their hearts.

Cai Jing knew Zhang Yue's ability, but Cai Bian was different. He was Wang Anshi's student and son-in-law, and he had always admired Wang Anshi.

Cai Bianzhi is as smart and transparent as Cai Jing.

Cai Jing is considerate in all aspects, Cai Bian is not only considerate, but also has a simple and honest temperament, which makes people not think that this person is too shrewd.

No wonder, as a prime minister, Wang Anshi, who has seen countless people, would marry his daughter to him.

Zhang Yue admired both Cai Jing and Cai Bian very much, and sighed in his heart that there are still talents from Fujian.

Apart from the two brothers, Xu Xi behind the scenes is talented, but a little conceited and conceited, and often speaks out of control.Zhang Yue knew that Xu Xi was the only commoner from a poor family in the background. The so-called inferiority complex was conceited, so that he would not be bullied.

Shen Kuo is not good at words and communication, and spends all day tinkering with small things by himself.

Zhang Yi had the highest official position among the five, and his sharpness and decisiveness surpassed all others. He went to the northwest to fight a war. Cai Jing and Cai Bian were not handsome, but Zhang Yi and Xu Xi knew military strategies.

Zhang Yi not only knows military strategy, but also has handsome talents.

This is also the reason why Zhang Yue recruited Zhang Yu to work under the curtain. He wanted to train a substitute. If he left Xihe, there must always be someone to take his place.Zhang Yue originally intended for Wang Shao, but Wang Shao was too impatient. If he could keep his own place and wait a little longer, his seat would be his sooner or later, but now...

Zhang Yue sighed in the post station. Although he knew that Wang Shao was rebellious, he still felt so heartbroken at the moment of being betrayed.

In view of Wang Shao's lesson, Zhang Yue also deliberately puts effort into knowing and employing people.

As the saying goes, if you are an official of the third rank, you don't read photo books. Now Zhang Yue is also an official of the third rank, but it is not enough to know people, you must be able to employ them.

At his current position, it is impossible to achieve success by fighting alone, he must cultivate a group of confidants.

Along the way from Bianjing to Qinzhou, Zhang Yue had to chat with five staff members every day, not only for the relationship between superiors and subordinates, but also for teachers.

Zhang Yue established a rule for these five people, that is, to be upright and frugal at the same time.

Thrift is the first virtue of an official.

This is why he admired Wang Anshi and Sima Guang very much.

After Zhang Yue demanded to be frugal, the others were fine, except for Cai Jing, who liked to enjoy extravagance.

In addition to the rules, Zhang Yue also treats people with sincerity.

After arriving at Fengxiang Mansion, Xu Xi offered advice to Zhang Yue: "At present, Mu Zheng, Dong Zhan, and Xixia are attacking our army in Minzhou, Hezhou, Xizhou, Lanzhou, and Huizhou. At that time, it is not conducive to our army's quick battle, so we can let the soldiers and horses in front retreat to defend several key points, and fight again when the enemy's army is scattered."

"At the same time, after our army leaves Qinzhou, we can march with a large army. The Fan tribes of Xihe prefectures follow Mu Hanhua, not really follow Mu Hanhua, and Dong Xun is just forced to follow the bandits. As long as the Fan tribe knows that the general returns to Xihe, If the imperial court sends more troops forward, they will surely surrender. At this time, our army can choose the best and strongest soldiers, donate food and grass, and order them to accompany the army to defeat the bandits."

Zhang Yue couldn't help admiring Xu Xi's few words, even if the other party was a Ma Di, he should do his best.

In fact, in history, Shenzong, Lu Huiqing, and Su Shi all admired Xu Xi very much, thinking that Xu Xi was superior, otherwise he would not be allowed to be the commander of Yongle City.

Although he was defeated by Yongle City and died for his country, but to use an analogy, it is like the national football team that has been defeated repeatedly. It cannot be denied that those who can enter the national team are currently the best players in the country.

After Xu Xi offered his advice, Zhang Yue immediately ordered people to go to the Xihe prefectures to meet the leaders of the various tribes, and told them that he had returned to Xihe, and told them not to follow the thieves, otherwise they would settle accounts after the fall!
Most of the chieftains of the Fan tribe in Xihe went to Beijing with Zhang Yue to receive rewards, and they still sold their face very much.

And since Xu Xi mentioned the suggestion, Zhang Yue immediately awarded the other party the Tongyuan Army Jiedu judge, and was promoted from a commoner to the second and fourth ranks of the selection.

When Xu Xi learned of Zhang Yue's appointment, he was so surprised that he couldn't speak, and quickly said: "Xu has not made an inch of merit, how dare he take this position."

Zhang Yuedao: "A certain person has never explained these things to others easily, but when you first came into our company, I told you that a certain employer has always recorded minor achievements and rewarded them for meritorious deeds. Your suggestions are all in line with my wishes. used."

"But I'm just a commoner..."

Xu Xi was surprised and wanted to say more, Zhang Yue smiled and patted him on the shoulder and stopped talking.

Cai Jing, Cai Bian, and Zhang Wei all smiled and congratulated him.

Cai Jing smiled and said to Xu Xi: "You didn't know that the commander-in-chief is a man. He never draws cakes with others. He just feeds cakes directly into people's mouths. You will know later."

Zhang Wei nodded and said: "Yes, those who went to Xihe with the commander-in-chief have all been promoted to rank. Just look at them and you will know."

Xu Xi made up his mind before accepting it.

A few days ago, he was a scholar who went to various restaurants in Bianjing, but now he is an imperial court official.

This encounter was almost like a dream, unbelievable.

Thinking back to when he met his fellow villager Huang Tingjian and promised to marry him before, he promised to go to Xihe to earn an official position for a few years, and then come back to marry the young lady of the Huang family. half-time.

The soldiers and horses traveled all the way, and when Zhang Yue arrived in Qinzhou, Zhang Shen, the commander of Qinfeng Road, led the civil and military officials of Qinzhou ten miles out of the city to meet Zhang Yue and his party.

This scene is nothing short of remarkable.

Near the road pavilion, flags were flying, and thousands of cavalry guarded here.

Beside the road pavilion, Zhang Yue and Zhang Shen greeted each other.

Zhang Shen said with a smile: "Zhang has long been waiting for Long Tu to drive here, and prepared a banquet in the road pavilion to welcome Long Tu to clean up the dust."

Zhang Yue thanked him with a smile.

When the two arrived at the road pavilion, Zhang Shen respected Zhang Yue with a glass of wine, and Zhang Yue praised: "The wine in Kansai is still strong enough, and the wine in the capital is soft enough to drink without the taste of gold and iron horses."

Zhang Shen said with a smile: "Like Longtu, I came to Bianjing from Pucheng to serve as an official, and then went to the northwest for a term. I also like the spirits here."

Zhang Yue put down his wine glass and asked, "How is the battle in Xihe now?"

Zhang Shen stopped drinking and said, "It's hard to say!"

Immediately Zhang Shen and Zhang Yue talked about the situation in Xihe.

After listening to Zhang Yue for a long time, Zhang Yue said to Zhang Shen: "Don't gossip, I will go to Xihe tomorrow, and you said how many soldiers and horses can Qinfeng Road send me?"

Zhang Shen is now under the Tianzhang Pavilion, and his rank is the same as the fifth rank, but there are still too many official positions.

On the dispatch, Zhang Yue was also the deputy general manager of Qin Fenglu's soldiers and horses, but Zhang Shen still followed Zhang Yue's lead.

Zhang Shen said: "It's difficult! Last year Qinfeng Road allocated a lot to Xihe Road. Now Xixia soldiers and horses unite with Dong Zhan and Mu Zheng to attack Lanzhou and Huizhou. Once Huizhou is lost, Xixia soldiers and horses will attack from Tongwei. Come to Qinfeng Road, if the soldiers and horses from this road are taken away, how will we deal with the enemy at that time?"
