The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 817 The angry man (2)
The civil servants are still arguing, especially those who are on the prince's side.Emperor Jing Fu patted the table, made a decision directly, and followed what Han Ge said.On the same day, a decree was issued, ordering Ning Wang Zhou Gan to investigate the number and race of the heads together with the local magistrates.Once it is discovered that killing good people and taking credit for meritorious service, they will be punished severely and will not be tolerated.

The northwest is far away from the capital, but with the help of Sitong Express, the round trip is much faster than before.King Ning Zhougan's memorial arrived at the capital together with those of local officials. Before the memorial was delivered to the emperor's desk, the news had already spread from the Department of General Affairs.Liu Changqing's victory is a certainty, the heads are all middle-aged men from Xiliang, not even a woman, child or old man.The quantity is also correct, and the captured horses, cattle and sheep are all products from Xiliang. The military achievements are real, and there is no water at all.

Emperor Jingfu looked at the memorial and laughed.Said in front of the courtiers: "Liu Aiqing is really my lucky general."

Old Han Ge complained secretly, when Liu Changqing was in the capital, the emperor regarded him as a rival in love, and both left and right looked down on him.This will turn the rival in love into a lucky general.Emperor, you change your face too quickly, don't you want to be moral.It's not enough to just talk about praise, at least bring out something affordable, give food and money to people, and they will work hard for you, right?However, with Emperor Jingfu's stingy and vengeful temperament, it is estimated that it is impossible to give Liu Changqing any substantial benefits.

Mr. Han Ge made a good estimate, and the emperor ordered Liu Changqing to give a verbal reward, to make persistent efforts, to fight a few more victories, and to stabilize the situation in the Northwest.No real benefit at all.

Liu Changqing gave a memorial to Emperor Jingfu. The theme was very simple. The military equipment in the northwest was slackened, and the combat effectiveness declined sharply.Temporary victory does not mean permanent victory.If you want to defeat the Xiliang army, you need to train soldiers.Military training requires various materials and time.Time is of the essence.Liu Changqing estimated that according to the current situation in the Northwest, it would take two or three years to complete the army here and build an army capable of fighting.In the past two or three years, it was mainly defense plus small-scale counterattacks.After two or three years, you can take the initiative to launch a counter-offensive.Completely drive away the Xiliang army.This is a grand strategy that must be recognized and supported by Emperor Jingfu.Otherwise, even if Liu Changqing has great abilities, he can't do anything in the northwest.

Emperor Jingfu did not agree immediately, but called cabinet members and several old princes to discuss the matter, hoping that everyone would work together to come up with an overall plan.Han Ge's old attitude clearly supports Liu Changqing's strategic plan. It is definitely not a one-time effort to manage the Northwest.Two or three years is short.And not only the issue of war, but also the issue of post-war management.If the situation in the northwest is not changed, the war will continue in a decade or so, and so on.Therefore, Mr. Han Ge suggested that the model of sheep cannibalism can be properly considered, and the two-pronged approach may completely solve the problem in the Northwest.

The chief minister of the cabinet said speculatively, "General Liu is Prime Minister Han's son-in-law, and Prime Minister Han really spared no effort to support his own son-in-law."

Mr. Han Ge stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Your Excellency, you are being polite. Whoever made Liu Changqing capable of fighting is still my son-in-law. If I don't support such a talent, I'm sorry for the court and the emperor's trust."

The chief minister of the cabinet sneered, Han Dongxue, you are really shameless, how dare you support your son-in-law so righteously and aboveboard.Old Han Ge smiled, and everyone was mutual.

Emperor Jing Fu didn't like to see these two old guys bickering, so he simply asked the opinions of a few old princes. These people had fought battles all their lives, so they definitely had a say in this aspect.Of the four princes, two expressed their support for Liu Changqing, and one clearly opposed it, and even suspected that Liu Changqing had ulterior motives and wanted to be the king of the Northwest.These words are very heartbreaking, Mr. Han Ge secretly remembered the other party, and he will not kill you in the future.As for the last one, he has an ambiguous attitude. He is commonly known as a grasshopper. If you see which side is more powerful, you will fall to that side.He still said it sounded grand, everything was like the emperor, and the emperor said that east is east, and he would never face west.

Everyone despises such a person.The emperor was also impatient, thinking that I was looking for you to come up with ideas, but in the end you had no idea at all, and you listened to me, so what's the use of asking you to come, and what is the difference between you and me.Emperor Jingfu made a decision in his heart, and next time he would never look for this grass-roots man on the wall, a typical representative of wasting food and a vegetarian meal.

A dozen or so people were noisy, the public said that the public was right, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was right.But in the end, there was a result of the quarrel. Liu Changqing's proposal was approved, and the court would support it within its capacity.However, many things still have to be resolved by the local people in the northwest. After all, the imperial court has a lot of money and food, and if there is more money for the northwest, it means less for other places.Once or twice is okay, but if it lasts for two or three years, no one can stand it.

Because of this, Mr. Han Ge once again proposed the idea of ​​sheep eating people.But it was this aspect that was the most noisy. Several people clearly opposed it and denounced the absurdity.Also ask the emperor to punish Mr. Han Ge on the charge of collaborating with the enemy.

Elder Han Ge simply ignored Mr. Shoufu's yelling, hum, an old man, let's see how long you can dance.Mr. Han Ge resisted all opinions, and explained the benefits with Emperor Jingfu. One was that it could solve the problem of local military and civilian protection from the cold, and the other was that it could activate the local economy, collect refugees, and create tax revenue.The third is to be able to solve the problem of money used by the Northwest Army.The fourth is to be able to divide the Xiliang tribe.Although Xiliang has established a country, it is still a tribal system fundamentally.Use wool to attract some, divide some, and attack some. I believe that the problem in the Northwest will be resolved soon.It can also reduce the burden on the court.In short, there are many benefits, if you don't do it, you will be a fool, two hundred and five.

Emperor Jingfu was very contradictory. The benefits that Mr. Han Ge said were predictable, but the opinion of Mr. Shoufu was also very important.If the sheep cannibalism movement is really carried out in the Northwest, will it really create a Northwest King?At that time, the power in the northwest will be astonishingly great. As an emperor, even if he is thousands of miles away, he will have trouble sleeping and eating.This is the main consideration of Emperor Jingfu.

Think about it, in a few years, there will be an army in the northwest, and it will still be a powerful army. There will be food and money in the northwest, and they can be self-sufficient, and they can completely abandon the court.In this way, isn't the Northwest independent of the imperial court? This is something that Emperor Jingfu must consider and guard against.Mr. Han Ge said that since the emperor was worried, it would be better to hand over the sheep-eating movement to the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry, and the money would not go through the hands of the Northwest Army.All the money is managed by the local government office and turned over to the state treasury, which then allocates funds uniformly.Although in this way, there will be a lot of procedures in the middle, and there will be more greed, but at least the possibility of independent kingship in the Northwest can be strangled from the source.From this point of view, more programs and more ink consumption can be tolerated.And the emperor can also send the Ministry of Internal Affairs to build a factory there, and keep an eye on the situation in the northwest by the way.
