The Daizhou General Manager's Mansion was burned to the ground when the previous Daizhou General Manager Li Daen was killed in battle. It was not until the end of last year that the Central Government ordered the re-establishment of the Daizhou General Manager, and then construction began.
Unlike other places, Daizhou is rich in red bricks, so it consumes a lot less manpower and material resources than the usual projects. It had been completed as early as when Wen Yanbo inspected Daizhou. In the past few months, more objects have been added one after another.
It already looks pretty good.
In fact, Li Shan seldom works in Daizhou General Manager's Mansion, and subordinate officials rarely come here. On the one hand, everyone has important responsibilities, and on the other hand, after all, Daizhou General Manager Li Yaoshi has not yet arrived.
Even the military recorder who often handles official documents and other paperwork does not come often. The previous one was Xue Wanche, who has now been transferred to the army and served as Su Dingfang's deputy, deputy general manager of the cavalry. The next one was Lu Chengji, the prince's minister.
When I take office, I often run out.
Li Shan chose the side hall to sit down and glanced sideways at Lu Chengji. This descendant of Fan Yang's Lu family was really extraordinary. He was only outstanding in literary talent, but he could concentrate on practical matters. There were not many such people among the descendants of the aristocratic family.
You must know that among all the state capitals in the world, Daizhou is the most unique. The unique thing is not that it faces the Turks directly, but that the person in charge of it is a time traveler.
The influence of Li Shan, a time traveler, has spread to almost every corner and every class in Daizhou. If Lu Chengji cannot calm down, let alone actually control the power, he will most likely be ignored by the people below.
"Is everyone aware of the matter?" Li Shanduan sat at the top and said expressionlessly: "The appointment of the Yongkang County Duke has been postponed, and Gu will be in charge of Daizhou affairs for the time being."
No one said anything below, everyone knew by heart that Li Jing destroyed Nanliang, leveled Lingnan, and conquered Jianghuai. He was a famous general of the generation, and he was from the Li family in Longxi. He gained your majesty's trust and resisted the Turks... I guess it's not a big problem.
However, although Li Shan, the king of Handan, had made great achievements against the Turks many times, he had never had the experience to lead the overall situation. In the previous victory in Wei County, Shandong, Li Shan only made suggestions.
Zhang Gongjin, who knew Li Shan fairly well, couldn't help but look at Su Dingfang. If Li Shan couldn't lead the army in person, then this should be him.
Sure enough, the first person Li Shan named was Su Dingfang.
"Su Dingfang, there must be no mistakes in selecting the entire army in Daizhou." Li Shan emphasized his tone, "All military affairs are entrusted to you."
This sentence is not meant for Su Dingfang, but for others. After the great victory of Yanmen at the beginning of the year, Su Dingfang firmly controlled the Daizhou Army, whether it was the title, Ma Sanbao with a higher official position, or the Daizhou Army.
Even Zhu Yichen, the governor of the state, did not dare to offend.
The special emphasis here today is simply to establish Su Dingfang's unique position in the army.
Zhang Gongjin also knew that the reason why Duan Zhixuan was expelled was that he drank alcohol in the army and treated the soldiers harshly, but in fact he was indifferent to Su Dingfang and refused to listen to his orders.
"Follow His Highness's order." Su Dingfang stood up to take the order, and no one else said a word.
Li Shan nodded slightly. If something happened, Su Dingfang's army would be his most reliable and powerful support. To put it bluntly, let alone Xue Wanche and Lu Chengji, at the critical moment, he could not trust Zhang Shigui or Zhang Gongjin who were members of the King of Qin's lineage.
Even his cousin Er Zhu Yichen and his best friend Li Kai can hardly say... Su Dingfang is the only one who Li Shan can completely trust and who has a great reputation in history that matches his ability.
Li Shan had absolutely no confidence in personally leading the army. Not to mention other things, setting up a stronghold in Guji Town to form a corner with Mayi and Yanmenguan to fight against the Turks was indeed proposed by him at the earliest, but his effectiveness was
As soon as he described it, it was Su Dingfang who made him make up his mind.
If the Turks bypassed Guji Town, if the Turks attacked Yanmen Pass or Mayi at the same time, how to deploy their troops and whether to attack... these were all beyond Li Shan's ability, and the only one he could trust was Su Dingfang.
Li Shan's eyes swept over everyone's faces. Everyone else could tell that Ma Sanbao came to Daizhou just as a cover, Er Zhu Yichen would not cause trouble, Zhang Shigui was stationed in Guji Town, and Zhang Gongjin managed the military camp. The only one who might conflict with Su Dingfang
Only Xue Wanche.
The most terrible thing is that Xue Wanche and Su Dingfang already have a feud, and the latter's control of the army is a bit like Zhou Yafu's Xiliu Camp. Once there is a conflict, he is afraid that bad things will happen.
But if Xue Wanche is transferred... I'm afraid that this fool will make a fuss on the spot. Li Shan thought for a while and put it aside, cursing in his heart that it should have been all Li Jing's fault, but now it's fine, it's all his fault.
It’s on me!
No one spoke for a long time, and the atmosphere was a bit depressing. Lu Chengji, the newly appointed military officer, coughed twice and said, "Your Highness, I heard from the news in Beijing that your Majesty intends to send Duke Ying out of Zhenjiangnan?"
All of them are well-informed masters. Li Shan cursed secretly. The first news he received was from Li Kai. He only received the secret letter from Ling Jing this morning. Obviously, Ling Jing wanted to first
Finished discussing with Li Shimin.
Li Shimin is also not sure whether the warrior Xun will be appointed as the governor of Yangzhou. This depends on whether Li Xiaogong will return to Beijing and whether there will be another war in Jiangnan.
If everything goes well, Li Xiaogong returns to Chang'an for questioning, and there is no more fighting in the south of the Yangtze River. The warrior Yu should go south to take charge of the Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Palace, and Li Jing will go north again... But it is certain for at least half a month.
Thinking of this, Li Shan's face was as cold as frost, "If Yongkang County Duke cannot take office, brother Zigou thinks... will the DPRK send another general to serve as the acting governor?"
Lu Chengji was speechless. Li Jing was already one of the most famous generals in the world, and he was originally a prince. He knew very well that there were very few such famous generals under the East Palace Gate.
Will you watch helplessly?
When it comes to famous generals, doesn’t it mean that the lineage of King Qin has an absolute advantage?
If the two sides start to fight again, who will be able to tell the winner in a short while... And the Turks are likely to attack in a big way in half a month.
Seeing that Lu Chengji remained silent, Li Shan and Li Kai, who was sitting at the bottom, exchanged glances, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief... In fact, the reason just now was barely established, but fortunately Lu Chengji stopped asking.
At the turn of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, there were many famous generals. Although there were not many who could compare with Li Jing, there were quite a few people at the next level who were qualified to serve as the general manager of Daizhou. Although most of them were either attached to the East Palace or belonged to the Prince of Qin's Palace, if Li Yuan ordered
, it can be suppressed.
And Li Kai and Li Shan were not optimistic about the DPRK sending another governor of Daizhou to replace Li Jing... It was just because of Pei Shiju.
On war with the Turks... It's funny to say that the most experienced person in the Tang Dynasty was actually Li Shan.
Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, except for Li Shan, there have been few generals who have fought against the Turks. In this regard, Li Shenfu is not as good as Li Shan, let alone Li Shan who led the Tang Dynasty and the Tuli Khan.
Make an alliance.
Even though Li Shimin traveled north and south, he has never had a direct confrontation with the Turks in this life. In the fifth year of Wude, Jieli Khan almost penetrated the Hedong Road. Li Shimin was ordered to go to Hedong and stationed in Puzhou, but then Jieli Khan
Khan returned north without any direct fighting.
Li Shan believed that Pei Shiju could find a reason... What's more, Pei Shiju was the one who knew the Turks best among the former Sui officials. Regarding any measures against the Turks, Li Yuan valued the opinions of this old fox.
After a night of thinking, Li Shan had a vague guess that he would try his best to escape before the war started, but the hope of success was not great.
Pei Shiju and Li Dewu made themselves soar every time they were framed, but this kind of thing cannot always be like this.
