The night went deeper, and candles were still burning brightly in the state government office.
In the front yard of the corridor, there are dozens of soldiers holding gold and swords, and the atmosphere of killing is filled.
Guo Zhongxiong claimed to be elegant and elegant, but at this moment he wanted to eat Zeng Run alive.
Transferring Chen Zixiao, Guo Junpan, and Pan Chenghu to serve in Caochengzhai was a serious violation of the principle of mutual control that had been pursued since the founding of the dynasty. However, it was Zeng Run's strong insistence that Guo Zhongxiong reluctantly issued the appointment certificate.
.
Who would have thought that in less than a month, Guo Junfan and Pan Chenghu would gather hundreds of troops and prisoners to occupy Huanglongpo Station and cause trouble?
When Guo Zhongxiong reported this incident at dusk, his first thought was to kill all these inexperienced and arrogant people as a warning to others.
However, even if Guo Zhongxiong was appointed as a servant, the Privy Council was ordered to go to Lanzhou and lead the military and military affairs, and take charge of the military and government of Lanzhou. It was not easy to accomplish this?
The matter involves the Xiang Army and prisoners in the prison camp. Not to mention that the manager Qian Zerui joined the army. He was under the jurisdiction of the Military and Horse Supervisory Department and was specifically in charge of the Xiang Army in Lanzhou. The commander of the Xiang Army (Xiang Army) in Lanzhou was Ge Huai. So what?
Could they easily admit that the accident was caused by their lax control and negligence of duty?
What's more, the information received clearly pointed out that the poor quality of grain distribution in the Grain House made the prisoners resentful.
In addition to the hundreds of prisoners who stopped gathering at Huanglongpo Post, all the prison camps in Lanzhou and the Xiang army garrison also learned about the stop gathering. At this time, there were signs of restlessness and instability. Maybe they suppressed the stop gathering at Huanglongpo Post.
The hundreds of prisoners were not a big deal, but Qian Zerui and Ge Huai had ten heads on their necks, which dared to provoke tens of thousands of generals and seven or eight thousand prisoners in Lanzhou to mutiny.
What great interests do they have to take such risks with Guo Zhongxiong?
Take ten thousand steps back, things are really getting serious, Guo Zhongxiong has Cai Qing behind him, who knows if Guo Zhongxiong will blame them all?
Therefore, after hearing the news, they rushed to the signing hall of the state hospital. Faced with Guo Zhongxiong's fierce anger, the two of them refused to back down and insisted that they should strictly investigate the grain matter first to appease people's hearts.
Qian Zerui and Ge Huai even refused to acknowledge the rebellion. The state judge Wang Gaoxing, Lu Shi joined the army, Xun Yannian, and the military commander Cao Shi Yuetingdao were even less likely to obey Guo Zhongxiong at will. He mobilized the army to suppress, stop and gather the prisoners.
In accordance with the laws of Da Viet, Guo Zhongxiong mobilized the banxiang army within his jurisdiction, which required the signature of the state magistrate, the deputy signature of the commander of the army, Cao Shi, and the copying and issuance of the military records before it could be officially effective.
Since the founding of the Dai Viet Dynasty, in order to prevent generals from taking over power, extremely strict regulations and supervision have been imposed on the deployment of troops.
Even when fighting against the enemy, the Privy Council usually formulates a detailed plan directly in the center, and issues it in the form of an imperial edict to the commanders for specific implementation.
The generals and ministers, who are in charge of the various ministries and armies, and have the power to command the battlefield, are usually not allowed to change the Privy Council's battle plan at will.
Such strict regulations greatly reduce the risk of generals taking over power and generals causing rebellion, but it also makes states and counties extremely rigid in responding to various changes.
The state magistrate, the commander of the army, Cao Shi, and the Lushi and the army were all in the state court at this time, and they all refused to sign. The third general of the Tianxiong Army who was responsible for leading the imperial army to garrison Kelan City, all commanded the envoy Ge Huaicong. How could he rashly obey Guo Zhongxiong?
Just one person's order to bring troops and horses to quell the chaos?
Ge Huaicong acted according to Guo Zhongxiong's orders. Even if he led his troops to quell the chaos, he would not expect any credit afterwards. The best outcome would be to be transferred from Lanzhou and transferred to the military and horse supervision department of another state to be appointed as a general. Besides,
When Guo Zhongxiong came out of Zhizhou, he usually didn't pay attention to warriors like them.
Guo Zhongxiong wanted to make a difference. He wanted to make contributions in the war against Yan and become a famous minister. However, before Huanglongpo Station gathered soldiers and prisoners to actually plunder the countryside or even attack the city, what he could do was to strengthen the cities and villages.
The post guard was ordered to strengthen the supervision of the generals hired by the Tongbai Mountain bandits in the counties and cities to prevent Guo Jun and Pan Chenghu from being accomplices.
When the news of the incident came, Guo Zhongxiong did not think about severely punishing the three evil grain officials to quell the incident. He was even worried that individual grain officials might burn down the warehouse and destroy their traces if they acted daringly. At the first time, in addition to recruiting Si Hu into the army and the grain director of the warehouse, he
He was summoned to keep an eye on him, and he also sent people to strengthen supervision and guarding of the grain yard.
Sihu joined the army without much fear. He just said that new grain had just arrived in Lanzhou from Taiyuan today and had not yet been officially put into the warehouse. He asked Guo Zhongxiong to go and check it himself.
As the war was approaching, Guo Zhongxiong shouldered an important task and went to Lanzhou. He wanted to make a difference. He was a fairly honest official, and most of the officials below him restrained themselves.
There were only about 10,000 households in Lanzhou and limited military settlements, so most of the grain and fodder needed were transferred from Taiyuan by Lu Si.
When Guo Zhongxiong saw that the new grain, which had just been transferred from Taiyuan and had not yet been officially put into the warehouse, was already mixed with a large amount of rotten grain, his heart went cold.
This is a fucking knot.
Xuanwu Army and Xiaosheng Army will each dispatch four generals and horses to Lanzhou within ten days.
If this knot cannot be resolved before the elites of the Xuanwu Army and the Xiaosheng Army arrive, Guo Zhongxiong doesn't even know what severe punishment he will face!
"You all should go and have a rest first. The matter has not reached a critical moment yet..." Guo Zhongxiong pretended to be calm and signaled all the officials to leave first, leaving Zeng Run alone to speak in the lottery hall.
The remaining candle was still burning, and the dim candlelight shone on Guo Zhongxiong's face, making it even more gloomy.
Zeng Run asked Guo Zhongxiong to keep a close eye on him. He felt dissatisfied and said bravely: "Guo Junjian, Pan Chenghu has not changed his traitorous nature. We have all mistrusted them!"
Guo Zhongxiong saw that Zeng Run was still pretending to be an idiot up to this point. He snorted coldly and gritted his teeth and said: "The defeat of Yan is about to happen, and the situation is serious. If you are not careful, I will never make you feel better before I am ruined!"
Chen Zixiao, Guo Junpan, and Pan Chenghu were all transferred to Caochengzhai by Zeng Run, but within a month, Guo and Pan caused such a thing. Even if Zeng Runzhen had no idea about it, Guo Zhongxiong also
There was no way he could let him go.
"..." Zeng Run also wanted to cry but had no tears. He didn't know why such a situation happened. What could he say?
"Besides you, who else did Prime Minister Cai send to take charge?" Guo Zhongxiong asked.
"..." Zeng Run also knew that if the situation could not be dealt with, he would be the first to die. He did not dare to hide it in front of Guo Zhongxiong and said, "The Tiger Marquis is in Lanzhou. He originally wanted to stay for a few days and then leave, and did not want to disturb anyone.
, but I didn’t mean to deliberately deceive Mr. Guo!”
"..." Guo Zhongxiong asked sadly, "Where is Yue Hailou at this time? It was he who insisted on transferring Chen Zixiao and others to Caocheng Village?"
Guo Zhongxiong was not a three-year-old child, so how could he believe it if he revealed such a big thing and said he would stay for a few days before leaving?
"Pa", Guo Zhongxiong was so angry that he grabbed an inkstone and smashed it to the ground. He shouted: "What on earth does he want to do?"
"The Tiger Marquis is in the Lanzhou Stone Field Prison - the news reached Kelan City, and Beizhi sent someone to see the Tiger Marquis. At this time, there has been no reply, and the Beizhi did not know what the Tiger Marquis had planned!" Zeng Run said with a sad face.
.
"Go to the Lanzhou Stone Field in person and tell Yue Hailou that I don't care what his plans are. If the officials take Guo's head because of this, I will never make him look good!" Guo Zhongxiong
Suppressing the anger in my chest, I barely let out a roar!
…………
…………
The night breeze in Caocheng Village and Lanzhou Stone Field is also chilling.
When the news reached Langu County, Guo Zhongxiong did not need to send an order. The sixth general of the Tianxiong Army, the commander of Zhu Guangwu, who also knew the affairs of Langu County, immediately led a team of elites to Caochengzhai for inspection.
Zhu Guangwu did not have the power to detain Chen Zixiao, or even to restrict his movements. However, as a veteran of the Tianxiong Army, he also had the important responsibility of guarding the defense line west of Guan Lai Mountain. He would never allow him to control the grass in Guan Lai Mountain pass.
Any uncontrollable situation occurs in the walled city at this juncture.
Jie Zhong has been his subordinate for many years, and he has a deep affection for Pao Ze. Zhu Guangwu does not believe that he will have any problems. He is more afraid that Jie Zhong is not tactful and vigilant enough, and will be used or framed by Chen Zixiao and other ambitious people.
It was even more necessary for him to come and sit in person and keep an eye on Chen Zixiao's every move.
There was originally a battalion of elite forbidden troops stationed in Caocheng Village, and Zhu Guangwu was not afraid that the more than 300 army generals would be uncontrollably agitated after the news spread.
Zhu Guangwu's style was much tougher than that of Guo Zhongxiong. In addition to ordering the soldiers not to leave the barracks, he also directly sent the imperial army generals to take over the guard of the Lanzhou Stone Quantity to prevent the prisoners in the stone camp from making any changes.
Of course, in addition to this, Zhu Guangwu had no intention of doing anything more than the order before Guo Zhongxiong or the Lanzhou Military and Horse Supervisory Department conveyed further orders; he even went to bed early in the Forbidden Army barracks.
Chen Zixiao also cooperated with Zhu Guangwu and Xie Zhong very calmly and calmly in making many arrangements. After midnight, when no new information or orders came, he returned to his dormitory to sleep as usual.
Before Zhu Guangwu, Wu Qi had already arrived at Caocheng Village.
When Wu Qi mentioned that the Six Routes of grain collectors and horses stopped gathering at Huanglongpo Station, Chen Zixiao realized that the situation would not develop as he planned.
He did not believe that his true identity had been exposed, but as a general who had been recruited and surrendered, he would most likely not be trusted again even if he had violated Yue Hailou's policies.
And if Guo Junfan, Pan Chenghu and the others were caught and confessed to the instigation, Guo Zhongxiong would probably put him in jail without asking any questions, but he had no intention of escaping from Caocheng Village at this time.
There was a knock on the door, and Chen Zixiao woke up from his melancholy dream of the grassland. He put on his clothes and lit a candle. He opened the door and saw Zeng Run and Zhu Xiaotong walking in accompanied by Yue Hailou.
It was obvious that after Zeng Run and Zhu Xiaotong showed off the Cai Mansion, Zhu Guangwu had no intention of stopping or interfering with their entry into Caocheng Village. He only wanted to calm down the incident as soon as possible - most people did not want to cause any big trouble at this juncture.
"The Tiger Marquis is here..." Chen Zixiao calmly asked Yue Hailou and the others to come into the room and sit down.
"I don't seem to have introduced myself properly. Did Zhu Xiaotong mention my identity to you?" Yue Hailou stared at Chen Zixiao and asked.
"The Cai Mansion can call Zhu Guanying and Mr. Zeng respectful father-in-law. Apart from Hu Hou, I can't think of another person," Chen Zixiao sat down in front of the bed and said, "Although I have been recruited
It was less than half a year, but ever since Mr. Zheng came to visit me in Tongbai Mountain, I have always wanted to serve Prime Minister Cai. Therefore, I have carefully learned more about the situation of Cai Mansion and the Western Army, otherwise I would not be self-righteous.
This is such a stupid thing!"
"Oh, you also know that there are some things you do that are too stupid?" Yue Hailou asked.
"Although I once sent troops to the north of Vietnam, it will be unstoppable. It doesn't matter whether the officials in Lanzhou are good or bad, but I thought that if I could have the opportunity to rectify it, it would be the icing on the cake - so I secretly figured that the tiger prince should also
With this intention, I encouraged Guo, Pan and others to find opportunities to cause trouble. Of course, I initially thought that they would enter Kelan City and see old grain and rotten grain in the grain yard, so everything would happen in Huhou's house.
Under control, there will be no trouble in the prison camps across Lanzhou, and the hearts of the Xiang army garrison are boiling. Unfortunately, I claim to be smart, but my cleverness is wrong: I didn't think of Guo, and Pan is not as good as I thought.
Foolishly, I didn’t expect that Yakshahu would join forces with Guo and Pan, resulting in such a deadlock. If Huhou feels that he can’t explain to Guo Zhongxiong, Zixiao is willing to bear all the blame - and this is the fact!"
