Chapter 1709 money grain
PS: Thank you book friend Haiyang for your reward.
Tianqi picked up the cover bowl and sipped a small sip, and asked in a faint tone: "Are you sure?"
"This," Gu Bingqian hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I am not sure, but I must not watch Xuanda's two palaces fall into the hands of the thief."
"I am very pleased that my dear will have this kind of heart." Tianqi took the cover bowl beside his mouth and asked, "Where is Gu Aiqing going to send a large army to Datong to suppress the bandits?"
Gu Bingqian hesitated for a moment and said, "I think that when dealing with the Liu bandits, we cannot rely entirely on the army to pacify and suppress. We should also start from other aspects and cooperate with the pacify and suppress the army to quell the rebellion in the Xuanfu."
"Tell me carefully?" Apocalypse became interested.
The two previous chief ministers only sent large troops to slaughter the tiger flag, consuming countless money and food, but in the end they lost their troops and generals, not only losing the face of the court, but also losing the Xuanfu, causing the bandits to appear outside Juyong Pass.
Gu Bingqian sorted out his language in his mind, and then said: "The Liu thief was in opposition to the court and was unwilling to accept the court's inviting other thieves under Liu thieves. I believe that there are always people who are willing to accept the imperial enthronement and find a background for their descendants. If they can recruit the thief to lead the troops, they can give this person the position of general who was granted to Liu thief. When the other thiefs know, they will not be moved."
"It seems that my dear is already confident. Since that's the case, I will follow the way I said. I hope I won't let me down again." Tianqi said to Gu Bingqi.
The method proposed by Gu Bingqian made him feel that he was better than the two previous chief ministers who only knew how to act recklessly. Once successful, he could earn a military force that was stronger than the Xuanda border army for the court, which was a good thing for the court that needed to deal with the slave thieves in Liaodong.
"I obey the order." Gu Bingqian owed his body to the Tianqi.
Tianqi glanced at Gu Bingqian who was standing in front and said, "Your dear, go back and arrange it! I hope you can bring good news to me soon."
He waved his hand and signaled that Gu Bingqian could retreat.
In his heart, his biggest trouble was the slave thief in Liaodong and the Liu thief who occupied Xuanda.
Now the Ming army in Liaodong defeated the army of 100,000 slave thieves in Jinzhou, stabilizing the situation in Liaodong and allowing him to see some hope of regaining Liaodong. At present, only the thorn of Liu thief from Xuanda has not been pulled out.
Gu Bingqian bowed and said, "I have something to do and hope the emperor can allow it."
"What else?" Tianqi frowned slightly, and understood in his heart that Gu Bingqian wanted to make a request, which made the little bit of his favor just now disappear without a trace.
Gu Bingqian was not aware of what Tianqi was thinking, and only heard him say: "The Liu thief defeated the official army several times. I think that barely gathering a soldier may not be able to successfully attack the Liu thief. In order to make it work forever, I think that the troops sent to Xuanda to suppress the Liu thief are best a strong general."
As he said that, he looked up slightly at Apocalypse.
"Whose guy thinks is appropriate to send to Xuanda to suppress the rebellion?" Tianqi asked with the situation.
Gu Bingqian said: "I think a strong army should be drawn from Liaodong. By cooperating with my differentiation, I will definitely be able to eliminate the Liu thief in Xuanda in one fell swoop."
When he spoke, he looked confident.
As the saying goes, if you fail, you will be successful. At this time, he has no choice. Since the conditions proposed by Liu Heng were passed back to the capital, he knew that only the only way to pacify and suppress the country was left. If you fail, you will lose your official position and return home, and even go to prison.
"Although the slave thief was defeated, it was not completely resolved. Will the draw of troops from Liaodong at this time affect the situation in Liaodong?" Tianqi showed concern.
The slave thief was defeated and his strength was still there. At this time, he was a little worried about drawing troops from Liaodong to Datong to suppress the rebellion.
In his heart, the threat of slave thieves was still above the Liu thief in Xuanda.
Gu Bingqian said: "Don't worry, the slave thief has been defeated and is unable to continue to send troops in a short period of time. This is the best time to quell the Xuanda rebels. After the Liu thief is resolved, collect all the remaining soldiers left by the Liu thief and send them to Liaodong, and disperse them into the various battalions of the official army. In this way, the Liaodong defenders will not only not weaken, but will also be strengthened."
Tianqi was a little moved when he heard this.
However, instead of giving Gu Bingqian an answer immediately, he looked thoughtful and thought secretly in his heart.
Gu Bingqian did not urge him, and stood his hands on both sides of his body, waiting patiently.
After a while, Tianqi said, "It's up to Gu Aiqing to arrange everything, but there is one thing that nothing can happen in Liaodong."
"I obey the order." Gu Bingqian felt relieved.
With the soldiers from Liaodong, he believed that with his own planning, it was very likely to resolve the rebellion of Xuanda. As long as he acted quickly enough, he could even deal with Liu thief before the slave thief reacted.
In this way, his position as chief minister will be solid and no one can shake it in a short period of time.
"Gu Aiqing is fine this time!" Tianqi looked a little tired.
If you are tactful, Gu Bingqian should take the initiative to ask for leave at this time.
However, Gu Bingqian did not mean to leave, but instead said: "I have something else."
"Say." Tianqi's tone was a little impatient.
Gu Bingqian pretended to deliberately not see Tianqi's dissatisfaction and said, "It is necessary to prepare food and grass in advance to mobilize the army. He also asked the emperor to ask the Minister of Revenue to prepare money and food for the army in advance."
"Is it enough for the cabinet to come forward, why bother me to come forward?" Tianqiyu said dissatisfied.
Under the decision of the army to Datong to suppress the bandits, the amount of money and food required was directly communicated and arranged by the cabinet and the Ministry of Revenue. Unless there was a dispute between the two sides, he, the emperor, would come forward to resolve it.
Gu Bingqian said: "I have gone to the Ministry of Revenue to find Li Shangshu and asked about the money and food required to send troops to Datong to quell the rebellion. However, Li Shangshu said that the Ministry of Revenue could not provide money and food, but the army was unable to drive out money and food. I am incompetent and asked the emperor to come forward and ask Li Shangshu to allocate money and food to quell the rebellion."
"The Ministry of Revenue has no money or food again?" Tianqi frowned.
Gu Bingqian's mouth twitched when he heard this.
The Ministry of Revenue has always eaten food for the first time, and it is new to have money and food.
Tianqi hesitated for a moment and said, "Otherwise, Gu Aiqing would discuss with Li Shangshu to see if he could squeeze out part of the grain from the Ministry of Revenue. Suppressing the rebellion is a major event and cannot be delayed."
"Li Shangshu will not be able to make money, and I will be incompetent." Gu Bingqian lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
Apocalypse is in a bad mood.
Without money and food, you cannot send a large army to Datong to quell the rebellion. If you cannot quell the rebellion, you can only let Liu thieves cause trouble to Xuan Da, which is something he doesn't want to see.
However, the Ministry of Revenue cannot provide money and food to quell the rebellion, and he has no choice but to force the Minister of Revenue to quell the rebellion.
"Master?" Gu Bingqian changed lightly.
