Chapter 1010 Preparations Before Inspecting Nanyang

On February [-], the dragon looked up.

Spring officially begins to come, everything rejuvenates, weeds and dead trees begin to grow continuously, green and lush, and the world seems to be filled with endless vitality in an instant.

But relatively speaking, the Central Plains is in a mess at this moment.

Zhaoming Pavilion was completely silent.

Only the sound of footsteps coming in and out, and the sound of brushes and ink, everyone seems to be very busy, and Mu Jing is also very busy. As a lord, if he wants to know the world without going out, he has to work harder. There are almost endless playbooks every day.

It's better now, there are many things that can't be dealt with, and they can be directly handed over to the ministers participating in politics, Xi Zhicai, Hu Zhao, Liu Jin, and Qin Song. They will be on duty in Zhaoming Pavilion for two hours a day.

In Zhaoming Pavilion, six more side rooms have been set up as places for them to participate in politics and work. In addition, more than a dozen civil servants have been selected from outside to supplement the staffing of Zhaoming Pavilion.

The current Zhaoming Pavilion, as the center of the Minghou Mansion, can be regarded as having a decent appearance.

"Master, just sent back the news from Nanyang that Lu Bu has withdrawn his troops!" A sound of footsteps sounded, Tan Zong quickly walked in from the outside, walked up the main hall, and reported directly to Mu Jing.

"Withdrawal?"

Mu Jing raised his head slightly, with a slightly surprised look on his face.

Lu Bu's occupation of the northern border of Nanyang is a tough one. If Guanzhong wants to go to war, then relatively speaking, it is only natural for the Bingzhou army to attack Nanyang. He has always been worried that Nanyang will become a battlefield.

But now Lu Bu's sudden withdrawal of troops is somewhat unexpected.

He thought for a while and asked, "Where are they going?"

"Yingchuan!"

"If you want to withdraw troops, it's best to return to Guanzhong. If you don't go back to Guanzhong now, go to Yingchuan, that means going north to Hulao Pass!" Mu Jing narrowed his eyes, and his eyes shone brightly: "This is also good, to isolate the war. Outside of Nanyang, it is a good thing for Nanyang!"

"Keep watching!"

Mu Jing said to Tan Zong: "In addition, I'm looking at the current situation in Yuyan and Yanzhou, and looking at the situation of troops dispatched by all parties. I want a clear report, and I must be clear about the deployment of troops!"

"As ordered!"

Tan Zong took the order, turned around and left with a limp.

"Come on!"

"Here!" A young man bowed his hands and took the order.

He is Jiang Wan.

After breaking through the siege in Guanzhong, Jiang Lu was killed, and he was buried in Guanzhong together with several Violent Bear Army generals. After Jiang Lu died, Jiang Wan was still young, and Mu Jing took the initiative to adopt him. However, he devoted himself to studying and never returned to the school for many years.

This year, he just graduated from the Hongdu school, and he is the one who has studied the longest among the Hongdu schools, but he is very young. He is only in his early teens, and it is still early for him to start his official career.

But Mu Jing broke the rules and let him enter Zhaoming Pavilion and became a small scribe, the kind who ran errands.

Under the influence of the environment here, it helps to enhance his overall view.

"Go and invite Hu Changshi, Xi Sima, and Master Liu!"

"promise!"

Jiang Wan acted quickly, and invited several people to the lobby of Zhaoming Pavilion.

Mu Jing cut to the chase: "A certain person is going to inspect Nanyang!"

"Inspect Nanyang?"

Xi Zhicai and the others looked at each other and frowned.

"My lord, Nanyang is still a dangerous place. A big war may break out at any time. It's not safe at this time!" Hu Zhao advised.

"Lü Bu withdrew his troops, went north to Yuzhou, and went straight to Yingchuan!"

"Even so, Nanyang is not very stable at this time!"

"I have gone to the mountains of swords and seas of fire, but I can't go to Nanyang!" Mu Jing shook his head and said, "We owe Nanyang too much, I have to give an account, and..."

After a pause, he said, "From Nanyang, I'll go directly to Hanzhong. I'm not at ease in this battle. I have to go to the front line to see it. Don't worry, I won't supervise the battle, just watch it!"

"When is my lord going to leave?" Qin Song asked without Xi Zhicai, Hu Zhao and the others thinking so much.

"After March!"

Mu Jing said: "I will give you enough time to prepare, this trip may take half a year, so you all have to take care of the affairs of the Minghou Mansion!"

"Since the lord has made a decision, I don't object. Now Nanyang really needs the lord to encourage people's hearts in person, so as to be more stable, but if it is on the front line, the lord still needs to be careful!"

Hu Zhao advised: "Now the lord is responsible for tens of millions of people. The stability of Yizhou depends on the safety of the lord. For the sake of Minghou Mansion and Yizhou, the lord must not take risks at any time." !"

"Someone knows!"

Mu Jing smiled, and said: "I rarely do things that take risks with my own body. I have my responsibility. I know very well that there are some dangers, so I can't take them!"

"Since my lord is worried about northern Xinjiang, why don't I go north myself!"

Xi Zhi thought for a while and said.

"Not for the time being!" Mu Jing said to Xi Zhicai: "Your goal is still there, Beijiang, just leave it to Huang Zhong, Chen Gong and the others to plan, it doesn't matter what kind of fight it is, it doesn't involve us In the territory, there is no need to increase troops, just fight according to the current strength. It is best to win Liangzhou, even if you can't win, it doesn't matter. Even Chang'an doesn't want to go in, and winning the emperor is a trouble for us, not an advantage."

He is not Cao Cao. Cao Cao's coercion of the emperor to make the princes have advantages and disadvantages. This disadvantage is more obvious when it is placed on him. In the current environment, he can't kill Liu Xie, scold him, or invite him.

As for the side he mentioned, it is Jingzhou.

Plotting Jingzhou did not happen overnight.

Now Yizhou is stable, Nanzhong is not chaotic, and there are enough troops. The year before last was a bumper harvest, and the food and grass were sufficient. It is definitely enough for soldiers. With the progress of the Jiangzhou Shipbuilding Workshop, the double-tooth warships continue to be mass-produced. The main force of the Jingping navy began to be armed.

Jingzhou's plot can also be put on the agenda.

If it weren't for the sudden outbreak of the Central Plains War, Mujing would have started the battle against Jingzhou this year.

For this reason, he also sent envoys to visit Jiangdong, preparing to join forces with Jiangdong to eat Jingzhou.

But Huangfusong's sudden visit basically disrupted the wishful thinking of all the princes in the world. At this time, no matter who it is, the target is on the Guanzhong battlefield, and even Mu Jing has to send troops to support it.

Therefore, the battle in Jingzhou had to be postponed for a while.

Postponing a little bit does not mean that there will be no battle, but that there will be more time to prepare. Once the war starts, it will be thunderous, and Jingzhou will never be given a chance to breathe.

"Yes!"

Xi Zhi nodded.

His latest task is to formulate a plan for the battle against Jingzhou and arrange the prelude to the battle against Jingzhou. There are many things, and if Huang Zhong Mujing is not in Jiangzhou, then Jiangzhou City needs a backbone in charge of the army, and he will definitely not be able to leave. opened. "

"Kong Ming, after I go to Nanyang, you still need to put a lot of effort into the Marquis of Ming's Mansion. A lot of plans are worse than changes, and the establishment of a ministerial system for the Zhaoming Pavilion to participate in politics. I hope that even if I am not in Jiangzhou City, the Zhaoming Pavilion can hold all directions!"

"Don't worry, my lord, the subordinates will do their best to guard Minghou Mansion!" Hu Zhao nodded. Mu Jing often couldn't sit still. He was used to staying to watch the house, and he was getting older. Jing Xizhi is like this, he can fight in all directions, and if he can do well, he is optimistic about this family.

"Father!"

"Here!" Qin Song looked up.

He is considered to be the most inconspicuous of the ministers participating in politics. For him, as long as it does not involve matters within the scope of other people's powers, many of them will not speak, and sometimes even express their views, which is abstaining from voting.

But as one of the few ministers participating in politics in Zhaoming Pavilion, he has his own ability.

"Last year's time was too tight. Even if Tosoh tried his best to investigate the officials, the scope of what he could do was not large. Relatively speaking, Tosoh's task is even heavier this year!"

Mu Jing said to Qin Song: "Our Minghou Mansion has not been established for a long time, and it is not too short. There is no need to continue to fill up the numbers. If some unqualified officials are really not good, then we can directly eliminate them and use new ones directly. Hongdu The school was founded in Hanzhong, and it has been around for some years, and it has a lot of talents. These scholars will not be like those in Shilin who hate us, so they can use it boldly!"

"promise!"

"Master Liu!"

"exist!"

"The development of the Department of Education, we must hurry up and directly enter the second planning stage!"

"Yes!" Liu Jin nodded.

The first stage, well, when Cai Yong was still in Jiangzhou, more than half of it has been realized, and now it is basically completed.

And the second stage of development is to ensure that each county has a primary school, and each county has an intermediate school. In Yizhou, at least five high-level schools that are comparable to Hongdu School will be established.

This is a plan for the great development of education, and it will inevitably consume a lot of manpower and material resources of the Minghou Mansion.

But if Mujing wants to develop, he must grit his teeth and support such a big plan.
