Chapter 2007 The enemy's division of benevolence and righteousness, but here is one
Except for Chen Yun, who had been with Li Yan for a long time when the rebel army crossed the Yellow River north, the other two were naturally recruited by Li Zhu at first, and were willing to follow Mr. Jin Jian's lead, and then took advantage of the situation.
His nephew, Prince Tiejian Li Yan, served under his command, the two generals He Ji and Guo Ji.
Li Zhu's behavior is now like that in the Water Margin. Compared with the original trajectory, he played a decisive role in assisting Wang Qing to cede territory and dominate. However, after being appointed as the prime minister of the rebel regime, he kept a low profile, far less than before.
Xiao Ju was so active in the rebellion. At the beginning, he had strongly advised Xiao Tang that the time was ripe for proclaiming himself emperor and founding the country. After finally achieving his wish and becoming a founding hero, Li Zhu has been content to be an important minister in the court who assists in governance and does not compete for military power.
Although he is still an important civil servant at the center of the Qi Dynasty's regime, he is now mainly engaged in civil affairs and national policies in collaboration with other important ministers, and his usual behavior has become increasingly low-key.
It can also be said that the nephew was the noble of his uncle, and because of Li Zhu's favor, he was now generously rewarded when the Qi Dynasty was founded. Li Yan also tried his best to persuade his uncle, who had benefited a lot from him, to ask for orders from Xiao Tang.
Once again, he came out to supervise the army and taught his uncle and nephew to work together again, so that they could seize more prominent power in the Qi court and even among the military commanders. However, Li Zhu replied meaningfully: "You
Although you still have to fulfill your duties in the army and strive for honors, this moment is the same, and now you are becoming famous as the founding minister of your Majesty, which is no better than the desperate psychological means when you risked your life to rebel. For Uncle Wei, now
It should be noted that in the officialdom, everything cannot be done too much, and you must also know how to close the door and guard yourself when you are proud...
Since I have been given a high position in the court, it is more important for me to keep a low profile and avoid suspicion than to show off my power in politics. It is said that it is easy for an emperor to conquer the world, but it is difficult to take over the world... He has power over the world but the emperor is taboo, and his achievements can last a generation.
As for the main suspicion, how about the civil and military ministers who have made great achievements in serving the dragon in the past dynasties? It is a taboo for ministers to be full of ambition and arrogant when they are in power. Now that I am a civil servant who governs politics, he is also a civil servant in everything.
It is not advisable to overstep one's servants. You must act wisely and prudently. This is the foundation for our Li family to enjoy glory and wealth from generation to generation in the Qi Dynasty..."
Li Huanshang still cannot fully understand the teachings and advice of his uncle, whose life experience seems to have reached the next stage. Now he has full will, although it is far from Li Zhu's powerful martial arts and scheming, but he has been influenced by it for a long time.
At this time, Li Yan's behavior was not only a bit evil like Mr. Jin Jian's back then, but also had some vicious and sinister thoughts, but he still didn't know how to restrain himself in time.
But now after hearing Li Yan's deep voice, Guo Ji showed a look of reluctance and said angrily: "The border of Jizhou in the southeast of Fuzhou is where the so-called Jiangnan Wangjun is located. There is a lot of money and food, and it is even richer. If
Even if we teach other armies and horses to seize the lead and strive for credit, we cannot reap the benefits by relying on the previous methods. Let alone rushing to invade the counties under Jizhou's rule, we may not encounter Yue Fei's soldiers and horses, so why do we need to embolden others' ambitions and destroy ourselves?
Majesty, we command more than ten thousand troops and horses, and have been in battle for a long time. Even if there are no other military colleagues to coordinate and coordinate, we may not be unable to win and make achievements in the fight with Na Lao Shizi's Yue family army, so why should we be afraid of Yue Feixun?"
"To say so is to underestimate the enemy by relying on bravery. Although many generals in the Song Army are useless, Yue Fei is determined not to underestimate him..."
Li Yaosifu said, and then looked at He Ji aside: "Brother He, I heard from the military academy that when we were stationed in Xiazhuang Town, Yihuang County a few days ago, you kidnapped two wealthy people. My daughter is left in the army to be used, but can this happen?"
Seeing this, Brother He's face froze, and then he laughed, and immediately replied: "Young officials are worrying too much, I am so bold, but how dare I break the rules we have set? Those big families Not only did the local villagers report, but they also responded to Song Ting County's announcement to unite villages and supervise the village heroes to invade and attack, and because there were many disrespectful words in our Qi Dynasty's words, I just sent troops to beat them. The words and threats were so frightening that in order to protect themselves, the guys sent money, food, and girls... This was not killing people to seize girls, and it did not harm the lives of the villagers in the town. Nowadays, there is a large-scale military incursion, and military commanders from various places are busy reporting military conditions. How can we pay attention to such trivial matters? Even if the supervisory military commander knows about the investigation, I will say that it is consensual. What can I do if I take a concubine? It makes sense. Just hide it."
Li Yan frowned even more when he heard this, and immediately shook his head and said: "This is still a bit reckless. Although Brother He did not send troops to kill and plunder, during the war, even if the blade of the knife was stained with the blood of ordinary villagers, it would be better to report the military situation." It's easy to prevaricate. I had heard earlier that not only the Privy Council but also the Yushitai dispatched officials to patrol Linbian prefectures and counties. During wartime, they would count the prisoners' money and food and review merits and rewards. Xuan was an unselfish and unselfish master during the investigation... The Fusi of Yiluan Town, in charge of Shi Xiu, not only inspected officials in various prefectures and counties for corruption and fraud, but now also used large-scale troops against the Song Dynasty. It seems that the border will also send spies to inspect various troops to see if they have deducted military pay and harmed ordinary people... If the incident occurs, although it may be big or small, the crime will not lead to death, but in the final analysis, it still needs to be done It will hinder our career, so we must not go overboard."
Of course, Xiao Tang was also very aware of the cruelty of war. The so-called benevolent and righteous teacher Qiu Wufa could not teach the numerous and complicated military units under the Qi Dynasty to have the awareness to maintain iron military discipline. The soldiers and horses under his command should do their best to do their best. Violate innocent people, but some armies will more or less expose the darkest side of human nature in wars. However, when compared with the armies of other forces, the Qi army as a whole can still maintain considerable Good reputation.
Li Yan naturally knew the limits of Xiao Tang's military legislation. He, He Ji, and Guo Ji would not dare to take advantage of the chaos of the war to set up troops like bandits, burn, kill, loot, or even kill good people and take credit for their merits. The evil deeds exposed in the incident, but the so-called no harm to the people, in fact, must be discounted. Of course, the people under the rule of the Qi Dynasty must not be violated at all. But now that the Song Dynasty is an enemy country, it is now aggressively invading prefectures and seizing counties. For these The people of the Song Dynasty resorted to policies and countermeasures. After all, Li Yan, who was not satisfied with relying only on military salary to support his family, had to do something...
No matter what the stance is, when there is war, it is the common people who suffer.
And when Li Yan urged He Ji and Guo Ji to help He Ji and Guo Ji, two of his confidants who became increasingly uncontrollable after gaining power, he suddenly remembered that Zhe Mo would also fight in the near future, but now he was freezing to death without demolishing the house. The reputation among the people for not plundering even if they starve to death seems to be as good as that of the Yue Family Army, which was a direct lineage of the Xiao Tang Dynasty...
Grandstanding! You Yue Fei is eager to win over the people, but what can you do? Since the Song Dynasty fell into disgrace, if it hadn't caused harm to its own country and the country and ruined people's livelihood, how could we have accomplished anything? Now that you are showing kindness to Jiayi, how can you support it? How long did it take? It's all because Your Majesty and you, Yue Fei, had a close friendship at the beginning. It seems that there were many important officials in the court who were also confused with that foolish and loyal servant... Now you have become our mortal enemy, but Ruoyi I said that your Majesty was well aware of Yue Fei's character at the time and knew that he would definitely be unwilling to cooperate with the rebellion against the Song Dynasty. However, sooner or later he would be a mortal enemy and he had to be secretly eliminated as soon as possible. In addition, he was controlled and followed by the Generalissimo's Office of the Military and Horses of the World. His helpers killed all species to avoid future troubles long ago. Couldn't they save themselves so much trouble now?
However, while Li Yan was thinking about it, a sudden change occurred at the south gate of Le'an County. In an instant, more than ten city gate defenders were killed by a group of seemingly honest people disguised as refugees, and the other party's leader The general casually wiped the blood spattered on his face, and immediately shouted sharply: "Guard the city gate, send the signal, and teach the horse army brothers to rush into the city immediately and kill all the thieves!"
