Shu Chen

Chapter 247 On Governance
Fei Yi, Guan Xing and others did not go far.

Therefore, after a short time, they saw Zheng Pu riding his horse and leisurely following the messenger to find the prime minister to return to his command, and Wei Yan also returned with no annoyance on his face.As soon as he arrived, he called Wei Rong to come forward, and told Lin Linzhuan after returning to Chengdu to take office in a fatherly tone with a tiger's face.

It also surprised them.

Will Wei Rong be appointed?

The dispute just now was actually compromised by this rebellious former general?

Very strange!
Both of them couldn't help being amazed.

Fortunately, Guan Xing, he has been acquainted with Zheng Pu for a long time, and he knows that his actions often integrate the insights in the military books, just like the "unity of knowledge and action" mentioned by him.

But Fei Yi is different.

He is a little older, and he has worked in the palace for many years, so he learned some unknown things.

For example, before the Northern Expedition started, the imperial court issued an imperial edict recording Wei Yan's hard work to remove Wei Rong from entering the palace as a Lang official, but Wei Yan resigned on the above table.

It's not that Wei Yan has something different.

Instead, he claimed that the first emperor took him to guard Hanzhong, and he had nothing to repay. He could only put his family on the front line to protect the northern part of the Han Dynasty until his death.

His words are generous and his heart is loyal.

However, it is inevitable to lose the checks and balances that do not understand politics.

Now before Wei Yan leads the army, Zheng Pu can persuade him to send his eldest son Wei Rong to Chengdu to serve, which is really not easy.

At least, Fei Yi felt that he could not persuade him.

Perhaps this is the reason why the prime minister spared no effort to promote Zheng Hujun to the group?
With a faint realization, Fei Yi and Guan Xing glanced at each other, then turned and left: Wei Yan is teaching the next generation, the two of them should continue to avoid the table.

Just because he didn't want him, he walked more than a hundred steps, and Wei Yan approached on tiptoe.

Wei Rong has long been impatient to stay in the bodyguard series.

Although he is not familiar with leading the army to go on an expedition with the army he was looking forward to, returning to Chengdu to guard the palace is also an opportunity to leave the wings of his parents and soar alone, and he has no dissatisfaction.Besides, as the "culprit" of the dispute between the adults in Cai Cai's family and Zheng Pu, it is lucky that he was not exposed and blamed, how could he dare to expect more.

Therefore, when facing Wei Yan's instruction, he not only answered the questions fluently, but also was extremely respectful.

This made Wei Yan, who just couldn't take advantage of Zheng Pu's side, and couldn't find the majesty of his father in front of Wei Rong, instantly felt bored.Also seeing the eldest son inadvertently expressing his longing for not being restrained, he couldn't help but feel angry, and after giving the eldest son a neck slap, he followed Fei Yi and others to continue preparing for the army, planning to find Jincheng County Wei Jun to vent his anger .

Ji County, the prime minister's office.

Zheng Pu, who came back in a hurry, tidied up his clothes and appearance before stepping in.

In the hall, apart from the prime minister, Zhuge Qiao, who had been following Yang Yi to dispatch grain and supplies, was also present.

The three armies have not moved, and the food and grass will go first.

According to common sense, before the army is launched, he should be out of skills.

After seeing the ceremony, Zheng Pu found out that Zhuge Qiao was going to Shuyinsai together as his deputy.

Not a deputy in the military, but acting as Zheng Pu's deputy when negotiating with ghosts and monsters from all walks of life in the Hexi Corridor.

Yes, now that the war is about to start, the Hexi Corridor is also undercurrent.

Whether it is the prefect of a county who accepted the official position of the Wei state or the captain who guarded the army, the Haoyou who has already gained benefits, or the Lu Shuihu who has been oppressed for a long time, all parties, large and small, have sent envoys to knock him down. vaginal plug.

Vested interests claim that if the Han Dynasty can not change the current power structure in Hexi, they are willing to protect the glory of the Han Dynasty again.

Those who have been oppressed for a long time seized the opportunity to ask for orders generously, claiming that they were willing to fight for the predecessors of the Han Dynasty; but they hoped that after the Han Dynasty pacified Liangzhou, their situation could be improved.

There are still some horse thieves or rangers who came to join the army spontaneously.

Their purpose is the simplest.

I just want to win fame with my life under the general trend, and change my humble fate.

It has to be admitted that, in a sense, the failure of the Wei State to counterattack Longyou was the best help for the Han Dynasty to recover Hexi.

It also puts the ugly faces of all the carnivores in Hexi who are mercenary in the sun, and there is nowhere to hide.

The recovery of Jincheng County is a normal military struggle.

The recovery of the Hexi Corridor is a decision to weigh the interests of all parties and redistribute rights.

How the decision is made determines the number of beacons in the Hexi Corridor.

For example, the practice of allowing the big Han soldiers to obtain the Hexi Corridor without bloodshed is to maintain the status quo.How Niwei indulged the power of the Haoyou and Qianghu tribes, and how the Great Han ensured their power.

In this way, they will readily accept the banner of the Han Dynasty.

Anyway, for them, serving someone is not serving them?

The taxes to be paid, the duties to be performed, etc. have not changed, but the name has changed from "Wei Chen" to "Han Chen".

It's just that a big man won't make such a decision.

Without him, we don't suffer from scarcity but from inequality.

Since the first emperor established Shu, he has been promoting "Shu Ke".

The powerful families in the land of Bashu are all bound by strict laws, and naturally Hexi Hao will not be an exception, so as not to cause dissatisfaction among others.

Furthermore, since the recapture of Longyou, the imperial court has been using the interests of the Silk Road to let the wealthy families in Bashu "actively" support the plan of the Northern Expedition.After capturing the Hexi Corridor, it will inevitably feed them back.

Blindly taking without giving back will not last long.

In future wars such as attacking Guanzhong and overcoming the Central Plains, these wealthy families will also need to spare no effort!

As for how to feed back, it is natural to change the pattern of the Hexi Corridor and give them some of the benefits.

Therefore, the prime minister's recruitment of Zheng Pu this time was not to enjoin the duties of guarding the rear of Wei Yan's army in Shuyinsai.

With Wei Yan and Zheng Pu's two generals and nearly [-] elite Han troops, to attack Wei's Liangzhou, which has a turbulent heart, who else can stand up to the Han army's edge?
There is no need to ask what is it?
In fact, the prime minister has been thinking about how to fix Hexi after he transferred various letters to Zhang Bao, who was guarding Shuyinsai.Now I also want to hear Zheng Pu's views on the many forces in the Hexi Corridor, and see if there are any benefits to fill in the gaps.

First, out of the potential intention of cultivating successors for the country.

Whether you have the potential to become a ruler of the country, the best test is this kind of insight that weighs the pros and cons of multiple parties.

Another reason is that the current Zheng Pu understands the situation in the west of the river better than Ma Dai—when the Wei army just withdrew from Longyou, he had already analyzed it through the general Xu Zhi, the broker Shi Puli and others. Prepared for a rainy day, he produced "The Sparse of Hexi Powers" and presented it to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

After Zheng Pu listened to the prime minister's question, he didn't make any excuses.

After thinking for a while, he cupped his hands and answered, "Reporting to the Prime Minister, the west of Dahe has been troubled endlessly since Emperor Ling. The people are no longer afraid of prestige, and the arrogance and right are all arrogant. Don't let it go! Just like a person suffering from a serious illness, decoction can relieve it." For a while, the root of the disease cannot be cured. Therefore, Pu secretly thought that with the power of the front, we should use the power of the front to waste a few days, trying to cut the flesh and scrape the bones to get rid of the gangrene!"
