Chapter 220: Establishing Prestige and Winning Over
When pointing a knife at Wang Qi, Zu Dashou should have thought: How could Wang Qi, who was so well-planned and known for his wisdom and ability to approach demons, enter Ningyuan City unprepared and then attack himself?
Moreover, Qin Erbao never appeared from the beginning to the end. In the past, Zu Dashou would have noticed it, but the arrival of Wang Qi today has forced Zu Dashou to muster ten thousand efforts to deal with it, thus losing control of the changes in the city and unable to do so.
It’s helpless to figure out the overall situation!
"Wang Qi, if you act so arbitrarily, you will be punished in the future!" Zu Dashou had his hands and feet tied, and he was forced to kneel on the ground, still squinting his neck and glaring at Governor Ji Liao who was sitting on the chair.
As for Zu Dacheng and Zu Dabi, their mouths and noses had been slapped with a scabbard long ago. At this moment, several of them fell to the ground, their hair disheveled and unable to speak.
"Before I entered the city, I didn't want my family to disappear in Liaodong, but what your brother Zu Dacheng said in the hall just now made me feel uneasy. If I don't remove my family from Liaodong, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep in the marching camp.
Peace!" Wang Qi didn't care at all about Zu Dashou's scolding, and smiled: "As for you saying that I am arbitrary and arbitrary, I will be blamed for it in the future. That is also a matter of the future. I am afraid that your ancestors will not be able to see it."<
/p>
After saying that, Wang Qi waved his hand and asked his men to drag him down, ignoring the scolding and shouting of Zu Dashou and others.
"Wang Qi! I'm going to sue you before the emperor!"
"If you act arbitrarily and domineering today, you will be backlashed in the future!"
"I'm waiting for you in the underworld!"
The brothers from the ancestral family still kept shouting and scolding, but soon the voices faded away until they disappeared.
Not long after, the blood stains in the hall were quickly wiped away, as if the Zu Dashou brothers had never appeared.
The hall was quiet.
"Everyone, let's watch the tea," Wang Qi glanced at everyone: "After taking care of Xiaoxiao, it's time to talk about business!"
"I obey the orders of the Governor!" He Kegang and Cao Wenzhao had been impressed by Wang Qi's methods. They had already had opinions about their ancestors, especially the Liaodong defeat. Although it was due to Xiong Tingbi's improper command,
It is no longer a secret that the ancestors are greedy for power and aggressive, domineering and bullying. After all, who in the entire Liaodong Army has not heard of the "prestige" of the ancestors?
"That's the order of the Governor," Yuan Chonghuan also said with respect, and raised his hand to Wang Qi.
At the same time, all the civil and military officials in the entire hall stood up and said respectfully: "I will obey the orders of the Governor!"
Almost everyone knows,
Liaodong Economic Strategy Xiong Tingbi's political career has ended, and Liaodong has returned to Wang Qi's hands.
Now, even the arrogant ancestral family has been taken over by Wang Qi in a flash. Who in the entire Liaodong can be Wang Qi's enemy?
Not to mention... the imperial court seems to be the sole voice of Duke Lang now.
At this time, if you don’t seize the time and climb onto Wang Qi’s lap, who will have a grudge against promotion and wealth?
"The war in Shenyang City has ended. The imperial court has made a conclusion. The blame for this matter does not lie with you," Wang Qi said, first to calm people's hearts: "And what I am doing when I go to Liao this time is to stabilize the situation and regroup. Let’s go north again.”
It's not about conquering gold, nor about regaining Liaodong, but...going north?
Everyone in the hall was confused after hearing what Wang Qi said, but no one dared to question it. They just listened quietly to Wang Qi's next words.
"Everyone here is going north with me, and there is nothing I can't say or ask," Wang Qi said, making an invitation gesture.
Everyone in the hall looked at each other, but no one spoke.
Even Cao Wenzhao, who was fearless, shrank his neck and leaned back at this moment. He didn't want to stand out.
"Master Yuan, you are the inspector and the first civil official in Liaodong besides the governor." After a long while, Wang Qi fumbled with the tea bowl in his hand and looked at Yuan Chonghuan: "Now I will give you a choice. You can choose on your own." Do you think he is good at leading troops on the front line, or is he responsible for transporting troops, delivering information, and supporting various parties to consolidate the rear?"
"This," Yuan Chonghuan did not expect that Wang Qi would ask himself this kind of question as soon as he opened his mouth. Shouldn't the inspector always follow the army and supervise the army?
"Replying to the Governor, I will be subordinated to the official at your command. As long as you say so, I will not be subordinated..." Yuan Chonghuan wanted to express his obedience and respect.
Ta da da!!!
"Listen carefully," Wang Qi looked at the table and said seriously, "I'm going to let you make your own choice."
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly. When Yuan Chonghuan faced Wang Qi's question, he seemed to be able to hear the beating of his heart. After a while, with everyone watching, the Liaodong inspector said slowly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. The experience and ability of the generals who lead the army are mediocre, but if they want to serve in the rear and mobilize the troops, they will not let you down!"
Yuan Chonghuan seemed to have made up his mind. He stood up and bowed deeply to Wang Qi: "If your Excellency wants to appoint an official, then the official will think that he will be most confident if he transfers from the rear!"
As soon as Yuan Chonghuan finished speaking, he heard Wang Qi say:
"In half a month, I will lead my troops to the north, with fifty thousand horses and horses, each carrying ten days' rations, and the same goes for the war horses."
Ignoring Yuan Chonghuan's horrified expression, Wang Qi continued calmly: "The Ministry of Household Affairs promised to transfer one thousand shi of grain and five thousand shi of livestock rations in ten days, and the local trading houses will also transfer one thousand shi of grain to Ningyuan City, and the rest will be vacant. Food rations, baggage and armor, today is October 6th, that is October 1st at noon, you come to see me."
"He Kegang," Wang Qi said, and then called He Kegang's name.
"The official is here!"
"As the deputy transfer envoy, you will assist Mr. Yuan."
"I obey my orders!"
He Kegang didn't hesitate at all.
The war in Liaodong has been ruined to this point, and everyone has an unshirkable responsibility. Now this is an excellent opportunity to make up for the past. Why not seize the opportunity and leave your name in front of Wang Qi?
Moreover, even if the food transferred to the court is not enough, Liaodong has it - the ancestral family...isn't it just a lamb to be slaughtered?
"Your Majesty Yuan Chonghuan, I would like to obey your orders!" After thinking about the matter, Yuan Chonghuan immediately expressed his gratitude to Wang Qi and bowed to Wang Qi.
In front of the Governor's Hall, there are mountains of military orders.
This prayer also means that when the time has come, if you can’t bring out the food, grass and baggage, you have to raise your head to see him.
"The rest of you," Wang Qi raised his head and looked at these people: "Tomorrow we will gather outside Ningyuan City. I and you will travel along the Ningyuan-Guangning line to view the map of mountains and rivers together!"
"I will wait and obey your orders!"
All the generals in the hall stood up and made a promise.
After a while, everyone dispersed, leaving Wang Shouxin and Lu Xiangsheng in the hall.
"Qin Er is still in the camp outside the city?" Wang Qi looked at Lu Xiangsheng and asked.
In order to control Ningyuan City, Lu Xiangsheng led his soldiers to first control the ancestral residence and Ningyuan City Defense. As for the military camp, Qin Erbao led the army to suppress it... It is still unknown what the current situation is.
.
"General Qin asked the junior general to come first. The junior general doesn't know what's going on in the camp," Lu Xiangsheng answered simply.
"How about coming with me to the camp to see the famous cavalry of our ancestors?" Wang Qi sneered, got up and walked out.
