Although there is only a two-character difference between the governor of Zhili and the governor of Zhili, the powers under their control are completely different. The governor of Zhili can only be in charge of one province, but the governor of Zhili is the first governor in the world, which is enough. He is in charge of three and a half provinces, with hundreds of prefectures, hundreds of counties, and a population of nearly 180 million in the region.
"Thank you uncle for your love. It's true that my nephew is too young to take on such an important responsibility. Just being a nephew who is the governor of Zhili is already beyond his capabilities. Please ask your uncle to choose someone else."
What Gao Shaoyi said is also true.
The governor of Zhili has a lot of things to do. If I become the governor of Zhili, I will be a bit embarrassed at my age. With 180 million people on my shoulders, how much do I have to weigh? Very clear.
In addition, Gao Shaoyi understood another thing. The Governor of Zhili is not that easy to be. This area is the core area of the Daqian Dynasty, and there are many dignitaries. The official position of Governor of Zhili has always been It's a lot of trouble.
What's more, after becoming the Governor of Zhili, more than 200,000 anti-rogue troops will be stationed in several provinces, which is equivalent to diluting one's own strength. We can still see this clearly. To put it bluntly, the Governor of Zhili is Our reputation has declined, and there is no way for us to tighten our fists.
"The Governor of Zhili has been idle for nearly three months. Apart from you, I really can't think of anyone else. If you feel that it is not suitable, you can act as the Governor of Zhili first."
Ginger is still old and spicy, and Gao Shaoyi understood what his uncle meant in just a few words.
First, draw a big pie for yourself, and then change from the Governor of Zhili to the Acting Governor of Zhili.
Although there are only two more words, these two words have more meanings. If you are the real governor of Zhili, you can make your own decisions on everything, but if you add the words "agent" , then the power will be much smaller, and many matters will have to be discussed with various ministries and yamen.
To put it bluntly, it means that while it can divide your troops, it does not give you enough rights.
Gao Shaoyi knew that he had to find a way to get rid of the Zhili Governor, otherwise, after the court meeting was over, the hat might be put down, and he would really be restrained by then.
"Let's put this matter aside for now. My nephew heard that the Huns in the north are restless?"
Gao Shaoyi thought of something he heard recently. If he didn't want the Suppression Army to be separated, he would have to take some responsibility on himself.
Speaking of the Huns in the north, Prince Ding sighed helplessly and introduced the situation in the north to Gao Shaoyi.
After the Daqian Dynasty was established, the Huns from the north had been harassing the interior. Later, more than two hundred years ago, the Daqian Dynasty captured the Huns in one fell swoop and made many tribes on the Xiongnu grasslands surrender.
But more than fifty years ago, the Rakshasa Kingdom in the north occupied a large amount of land in the north of the Xiongnu, and these princes had been shuttling through the Xiongnu grasslands to support themselves.
A few days ago, more than 3,000 troops of the Rakshasa Kingdom entered the Xiongnu grassland. Naturally, the troops stationed by the Daqian Dynasty on the grassland were unwilling. The two sides engaged in a series of exchanges of fire. The Daqian Dynasty lost more than a thousand people. .
Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Prince Ding got the news that the six princes on the grassland have reached a consensus. They will announce to the world in the next few months that they will break away from the rule of the Daqian Dynasty and establish the Great Huns. kingdom.
The imperial court has been having a headache over this matter for half a month, and has been sending envoys to the grasslands, hoping to persuade these princes to change their minds.
But according to the information obtained so far, even if some princes are ready to change their minds, they have no power in their hands. The Rakshasa Kingdom has already deployed 200,000 soldiers on the northern border, staring at the Xiongnu grassland. If anyone dares to go back on his words, he will probably The tribe will be wiped out in an instant.
"What's going on? Do you have any ideas about what's going on in the north?"
Prince Ding seemed to have suddenly thought of something. The army under his nephew was so powerful. Instead of using the title of Governor of Zhili to weaken his nephew, it would be better to send this boy to the grassland and let him fight with the Rakshasa Kingdom. People carry it head on.
On the one hand, it can maintain the rule of the Daqian Empire on the grasslands, and on the other hand, it can also weaken the suppressing army and strengthen the rule of the imperial court. This can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
"How dare my nephew have other ideas? I just think these Rakshasa people are too much, but my cousin-in-law has done a good job on the Daliao Peninsula, and the Rakshasa people's combat effectiveness is not very strong. If they are taught to the suppressing army, It may not be possible.”
Gao Shaoyi didn't say anything to death. Prince Ding was an old politician, so he naturally understood what Gao Shaoyi was thinking, and that was when it was time to put forward conditions.
If you, old man, want to let the Suppression Army do this, you must at least give us some benefits. You can't move your upper lip and lower lip, and just let us people go to the grassland to suppress the rebellion.
"The imperial court is planning to set up a Xiongnu general to take charge of the six large tribes and twelve small tribes on the Xiongnu grassland. If you can handle this matter, I can guarantee that the Xiongnu general will be yours, and he can be hereditary and rule the north forever."
When Prince Ding finished what he said, Gao Shaoyi didn't feel anything attracted him. I, the governor of Zhili, didn't even pay much attention to it, let alone a Hun general.
But after hearing the following words, Gao Shaoyi really became interested. The Daqian Dynasty also had some hereditary positions in various places. They were basically generals on the frontiers. It was like forming a small kingdom locally. If this was the case, Then you can really fight for it.
Although Gao Shaoyi is already preparing to overthrow the Daqian Dynasty at the appropriate moment, this appropriate moment has not come recently. Our strength is not strong enough. If this is the case, we must develop within the Daqian Dynasty. Just fine.
"What about the Governor-General of Zhili?"
Gao Shaoyi looked at the memorial in the prince's hand.
"You can't make a fat man with just one bite. You can't hold both positions in your hands. If you can solve the Huns' problem, I think your title can be raised to a higher level and you can become a duke at your age. Yes, there is probably no one in the thousands of years of history of the Daqian Dynasty."
Prince Ding collected the memorial, which means that the Governor of Zhili has nothing to do with Gao Shaoyi...
