Spring passed quickly, and Wu Tongue brought good news to Yun Ye. Wu Se's son actually struggled to live through the spring, and his spirit even became stronger and stronger, although his appearance was still as old as ever, with a skinny face.
It already has a luster, just like the leaves after the spring rain, or, this is life.
Government affairs are always boring. In the mountains of Hailing County, bandits who dominate the mountains have appeared. The governor of Yangzhou wants to use government troops, and he said in the memorial that it is best to kill these bandits completely to avoid future troubles.
Yun Ye did not hesitate to give permission to use thousands of soldiers in the document transferred to him. However, the soldiers dispatched were not Yangzhou soldiers, but the neighboring Chuzhou soldiers. However, these people must be as strong as possible.
The reason why they were captured alive was that the thieves were former soldiers or people who had withdrawn from Goryeo.
People who have experienced life and death have seen too much killing and death, so they will cherish their lives very much. How could they do such a self-destructive thing? Who else knows better than them what the imperial army is like?
fear.
Rebellion when the Tang Dynasty's military was at its peak was actually tantamount to suicide. Yun Ye was very interested in knowing what made these veterans think of occupying the mountain and becoming king.
The official document stated that these 100 people had served in Goryeo for four years. They were extremely vicious bandits. They killed famous local wealthy people and robbed several women. They once intended to attack Hailing County in order to gain a foothold. However, they were killed by the county magistrate and
The local gentry worked together to fight back, and finally retreated into a lonely mountain to protect themselves?
After Yun Ye took the map, he took a look at the map of Hailing County and punched the case. Hailing County is a flat river with many lakes and swamps, but there are no mountains. The nearest mountain is in Jingjiang, which is a big one.
The top of the mountain is where people are hiding. If it was just a suspicion before, it is now confirmed that these people are forced to rebel. Where is the military quality of veterans of hundreds of battles? Going into swamps and lakes is better than staying in a mound.
A hundred times stronger. This is the posture of waiting for others to destroy you.
"Please invite Zhang Jian, Marquis of Liancheng!" Yun Ye picked up the map scattered on the ground and put it on the case again. He ordered the official and sat behind the case to wait for Zhang Jian. These people are all his subordinates. Let's see how he does.
explain.
Not long after, Zhang Jian walked in with a smile, cupped his hands at Yun Ye and said, "Brother Buqi, long time no see."
"Don't talk about these gossips. We won't be interested in this. Just call me Yun Ye. Come and read this memorial and this map. Tell me what you plan to do."
Zhang Jian came over confused. He didn't understand why Yun Ye asked him to read the memorial from the Ministry of War. Although he also held the title of Minister of the Ministry of War, he was walking in the Ministry of Household Affairs. Logically speaking, he could not interfere with the affairs of the Ministry of War.
When he read the memorial, his face darkened, and he glanced at the map hastily, and his whole face turned purple. There were less than 10,000 veterans who could follow him for four years in the Liaodong War. Here is No. 100
If something happens to someone, as a general, he has a promise to the remaining soldiers, so how can he not be frightened and angry?
Before Zhang Jian could speak, Yun Ye showed Zhang Jian the document he had approved. After reading it, Zhang Jian's face finally improved a little and he handed over his hand and said: "Marquis Yun is kind, Zhang is very grateful, so let the deputy general
Go to Hailing County, capture all the rebels and take them to the capital to hear your Majesty's decision."
Yun Ye nodded, and then asked the official to seal the official document and rush it three hundred miles to Chuzhou. He believed that Zhang Jian would be able to recruit his old troops before the Chuzhou soldiers arrived in Hailing County.
He rubbed his temples and sighed, as soon as the world was peaceful, there would be a civil-military dispute. If there was no such thing as a nationwide attack on the Tang Dynasty, the civil servants might have won long ago. The Jiedushi envoys along the way would have no financial power or local control rights.
He could only lead the troops in the military camp. His power was not as strong as before, and he gained less and less respect.
This is Li Erzai's conscious promotion. It can be said that this is the general trend of the world and no one can change it. Yun Ye sighed. The fact that he is a military general and the minister of the Ministry of War is probably related to his appearance of being neither civilized nor military.
Du Ruhui has completely stopped caring about political affairs. He goes to and fro the noble houses every day, buying and selling various gold, stone and jade articles. The rest of the time, he goes to Yushan Academy and immerses himself in the library, ignoring what is going on outside the window.
He calls himself the Peaceful Mountain Man.
It is said that Fang Xuanling was extremely envious of Du Ruhui's current life. He wanted to retire several times, but was rejected by Li Er. He had no choice but to continue to be overwhelmed by the sea of Wen Shanhui in Zhongshu Province. He took pleasure in hardship and called himself "Wen Shanhui".
ox"
Yun Ye's arrival made Fang Xuanling extremely happy. Although being the prime minister was extremely noble, he could not escape the hard work. It was also a great pleasure to have a moment of leisure.
"There is a kind of fish in the East China Sea, called yellow croaker. This fish has a special characteristic, that is, it can sing. When you first hear it, it sounds like a melodious piano. If you listen carefully, it sounds like someone is whistling. If you accidentally interrupt the yellow croaker,
When the fish play, they will make a meowing sound, and if you continue to disturb the croakers from singing, their songs will turn into a clicking sound of teeth, which is very magical."
Yun Ye took a sip of hot tea and began to tell Fang Xuanling anecdotes. The old man liked hearing this recently.
"At the beginning of the ninth year of Zhenguan, Yun Ye, the invincible general of the Tang Dynasty, returned from an expedition to the South China Sea. Unfortunately, he encountered a dragon sucking water. At that time, the sky and the earth hung upside down, the water dragon soared into the sky, and a fish weighing ten thousand kilograms was caught in the air by the water dragon. It was almost an apocalyptic disaster. Yun Ye
Ye lived up to the name of a strong general, tied himself to the mast, and shouted to command the fleet to escape. The fleet sailed hard in the gap between the water dragons, seawater poured into the ship, and the sails also disappeared into the sky. Fortunately, Yun Ye commanded it well, and the fleet was safe.
But the warrior Yun Ye was knocked unconscious by a croaker and couldn't see anyone for a month!
Is that croaker the same croaker? Did it sing to you before knocking you out?"
Fang Xuanling has always been like this. With his amazing memory, no big or small things that happen in the court can escape his eyes. This is what he earns a living from, but such vicious exposure is too much.
"Prime Minister, I am using a metaphor. It is true that the yellow croaker sings. Why are you talking about him?"
"It is true that Marquis Yun was knocked unconscious by the yellow croaker. I am also answering your metaphor. As for the story of the yellow croaker singing, I just laughed at it. Do you understand? I plan to write a book recently, not official history or scriptures.
, regardless of the ancient sayings, and regardless of the government, he concentrates on collecting anecdotes and weird theories from all over the world and compiles them into a book. A smile from a scholar is enough. Who has time to discuss with you whether the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind? What should I do with you?
Dry?"
After Fang Xuanling finished speaking, she burst into laughter. She indeed lived up to her reputation as an old fox.
"Of course someone will clean up the matter of a hundred soldiers. You've already done a good job. It's useless to talk more. It's better to talk with me."
Yun Ye heard what Fang Xuanling said and walked away. The old guy was a stinky chess player, but he still managed to win against him. As long as he saw the old guy, he would definitely pull him to the chessboard and be tortured. I couldn't get anything from him today.
If you get the right letter, it's better to leave as soon as possible to avoid giving him a chance to abuse you.
Returning to the Ministry of War, Yun Ye realized that he might as well play chess with Fang Xuanling. The two ministers brought a thick stack of account books, which were said to be the remnants of food accumulated last year, and asked Lord Shangshu what to do with it.
The so-called meal ends are the leftovers from everyone's official meals. Yun Ye opened the account book and looked directly at the final balance. When he found that the final balance was only one hundred and eighty-six silver coins, he was completely shocked.
There are more than 600 people in the Ministry of War who are eating official meals. After eating for a whole year, they only have more than 100 silver coins left. It is not because they think the money is small, but because they have to trouble themselves with this little money. Let's divide it and everyone can't get it.
Half a silver coin is not enough to embarrass anyone.
"Take it and buy me a better fishing rod and send it over. I plan to go fishing."
"I'm afraid it's not good to use public funds for personal use!" Duan Hu had a sinister face. All the people in his family had this kind of behavior and were used to being poor.
"Then can I buy you a fishing rod and go fishing?" I just got angry with my superior, so why can't I lose my temper with my subordinate?
"No one in the Duan family has ever touched a penny of public funds. Is this your habit, Marquis Yun?"
The emperor made Duan Hu the left minister of the Ministry of War because he was at odds with Yun Ye. Yun Ye's temperament was too lively, so he felt it was necessary to send someone more rigid to neutralize Yun Ye. Only now did Yun Ye realize that,
This guy is not rigid, he is just a piece of wood, or an iron wood without holes.
Yun Ye lowered his head and took another look at the number of money, then took out the account book and looked at the total number of people in the Ministry of War. He discovered an interesting phenomenon, that is, dividing the number of money by the number of people can never be divided no matter what. There is always a surplus in the end. Duan
It may be okay for Tiger to march and fight, but when it comes to calculating numbers, it's a mess. He can only serve as a general in the army.
"You come and divide this money. Remember, no one should have less. Since it is everyone's money, everyone should share some. No one has too much, no less, and no leftover. I can rest assured that this matter is left to you.
"
Just after arranging things, Li Chengqian walked in, picked up the account book, took a look at it, and said to Yun Ye: "Don't bully honest people. Old Duan is honest. What do you want him to do with the last remaining money? Old Duan's family
He is so stubborn that he will wipe his neck if he fails to fulfill military orders. Don't make such a joke with him."
After saying that, he took out a silver coin from his pocket and handed it to Duan Hu, saying that it was a reward from the prince and added to last year's account book.
Duan Hu did not accept the silver coin from the prince, looked at Yun Ye and said: "Although I am stupid, I will still divide this little money."
Yun Ye really wanted to see how Duan Hu divided the money, but Duan Hu turned around and threw the account book to Lao Liao, the right servant of the Ministry of War. He repeated what Yun Ye said to him just now, and then looked back at Yun Ye and sneered.
.
Li Chengqian couldn't stop laughing. Yun Ye, who had an ugly expression on his face, walked out of the gate of the Ministry of War and went straight to the East Palace. There was only a wall between them. He soon arrived at his house. Before he could sit down, he heard Li Chengqian laughing and saying: "Come out."
It’s a big deal.” (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
