Now Li Xingchen not only needs to have a good relationship with these officials under his command, but also needs to maintain his own prestige. After all, Li Xingchen will go higher and higher in the future. He cannot always be as big or small as the officials under his command.
As for Gu Yewang, an old man who has been in officialdom for most of his life, although he does not have much scheming, he can still notice this. With his experience, he is naturally better able to figure out Li Xingchen's thoughts than other civil and military officials.
, the proactive expression of humility to Li Xingchen just now naturally played into Li Xingchen's intentions.
Li Xingchen needed an example and a template, so King Gu Ye gave it to him. Even if King Gu Ye lowered his arrogance, the other generals and officials naturally knew what to do.
"General, the messenger sent by the imperial court is Xu Shanxin. This person is the same age as the general. He has a resolute character and has always set his sights on the target." King Gu Ye then said in a deep voice, "Although my subordinates have never
After working with him, I also learned that although this person is not good at talking, he always uses his tenacity to make things perfect, so the imperial court sent Xu Shanxin as an envoy, which can be regarded as a suitable candidate."
Li Xingchen frowned. He didn't have much impression of this name, but he must have been chosen not only by Xu Ling and others, but also by Chen Xu. He was responsible for announcing the decree at such a young age, especially when he came to Bashu.
This is a place where Nan Chen is neither an enemy nor a friend. The reason behind the court's confidence in Xu Shanxin is naturally a reflection of Xu Shanxin's ability.
What Li Xingchen didn't know was that Xu Shanxin had written an article and submitted it to Xu Ling at the age of fifteen, and was praised by Xu Ling as "a child prodigy with extremely high talent."
In history, after the fall of Nanchen, Xu Shanxin, who stayed in the capital of the Sui Dynasty as an envoy, burst into tears and refused to accept the official position given by the Sui Dynasty. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty appreciated this very much and issued several orders to grant officials and order him to obey.
When Empress Chen was ordered to surrender to the Sui Dynasty, Xu Shanxin cried and changed his clothes and was ordered to serve as an official in the Sui Dynasty. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty praised him: "I am the only one who has conquered the Chen Kingdom. If you can remember his old king, you are my sincere minister."
also."
Xu Shanxin did not live up to the high praise of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. After the Yu Wenhua Rebellion, he angrily denounced Yu Wenhua Ji and wanted to kill Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. He was an out-and-out resolute and upright minister. He was able to get Xu Ling and Yang Jian
Xu Shanxin's ability can also be seen from the compliments of these two people.
Although Li Xingchen didn't know about Xu Shanxin's heroic deeds in another time and space, he didn't dare to take it lightly.
"We will adapt to the situation at that time," Li Xingchen said carefully, "I'm afraid the governor will have to do a lot of work."
King Gu Ye hurriedly raised his hands in response.
And Li Xingchen turned to look at Tang Yishun: "Baixian, have the grain and grass in Ba County started to be prepared for transshipment, and have the workshops in Nanfang County allocated enough manpower?"
"Everything is as arranged by the general." Tang Yishun stood up and responded, "The food shipped from Jingzhou has been consumed, but there is still a lot. It should be transported to Shu County within ten days. In addition, the workshop
Twenty key people have been gathered there, and Master Ouyang will rush to Shu County to discuss the specific matters with the general in the near future."
Li Xinchen nodded slightly. Among the two places, Shu County is definitely more suitable to be Li Xinchen's foundation. Therefore, the grain and grass previously stored in Ba County must begin to gradually move north.
In fact, there is not much food and grass. Most of it was transferred by Donggong and Xiao Mohe through private channels to support Li Xinchen. Li Xinchen had already consumed almost all of it on the front line, but it was better than nothing. Li Xinchen still wanted to transfer the last grain to Li Xinchen.
Come to Shu County to fill the empty treasury.
Otherwise, if this continues, it will be even harder for Shu County to support it.
Speaking of these grains, Li Xinchen naturally thought of Shen Jungao and others in the East Palace. After all, they also contributed to these grains. However, Li Xinchen did not really feel guilty for many of his former colleagues in the East Palace. It was not Li Xinchen's initiative to part ways with Nan Chen.
Yes, the imperial court exerted such pressure and could not tolerate any further hesitation by Li Xingchen. As a part of the imperial court, the East Palace had no power to prevent the imperial court from issuing its decree, so it would naturally have to bear such consequences together with the imperial court.
Li Xingchen believed that Shen Jungao and others must have been mentally prepared before, but Li Xingchen asked himself that he had done enough for the East Palace.
Including smashing Chen Shuling's conspiracy and capturing Jiangling, Li Xinchen was behind these important links in the rise of the East Palace, and Li Xinchen was even in charge of it many times. As for Li Xinchen's attack on Bashu, it was also recognized by the East Palace and Chen Shubao. Li Xinchen was not
I feel that I still owe something to Donggong.
Nature plays tricks on people, and there is no way to talk about who is right or wrong.
Of course, Li Xinchen accepted the grain that the East Palace had provided him with no politeness. After all, most of it had already fallen into his stomach, and it was impossible for Li Xinchen to return it to Xiao Mohe.
And perhaps this bit of food was the last connection between Li Xingchen and the forces in the East Palace. After the East Palace took over Nanchen, it was hard to say whether the two sides were friends or enemies.
As for the workshop, Li Xinchen chose the southern county before because it was the only relatively flat place Li Xinchen could find among the mountains of Bajun. But now that Shu County has been captured, Li Xinchen has too many places to choose from.
, so Li Xingchen naturally does not want to continue to place the workshop mainly in the southern county. After all, the southern county is too close to Baidi City, the entrance to Bashu, and no one can guarantee that there will be no risks.
Of course, Tang Yishun didn't understand the location, scale, number of manpower, etc. of the workshop, so he naturally didn't interfere much. The specific matters would definitely have to wait until Ouyang Mo arrived to discuss and finalize them with Li Xinchen.
Li Xingchen nodded slightly: "How are the resettlement of the refugees and Ba people going?"
Tang Zhengliang and Du Qi stood up at the same time. Tang Zhengliang said in a deep voice: "General, the refugees have gradually begun to resettle. In the previous war, many people from the state capital were moved by the Zhou people to the nearby state capital of Shu County to strengthen the walls and clear the country. Now
We are arranging for them to go home, and we will take advantage of the warmer weather this year to hurry up and catch up with the tail end of spring plowing."
And Du Qi immediately said: "Eight tribes of the Ba people are coming down the mountain. Many small tribes are deep in the mountains. They have just been notified now. It will take about twenty days to gather and arrange in sequence. The first batch of people have already gone down the mountain.
Spring plowing has begun, General, please rest assured."
Li Xingchen's eyes immediately fell on Xiao Shilian and Pei Zilie. Pei Zilie immediately stepped forward and said, "General Qi, Wei Xiaokuan and Yuchi Jiong did not make any repeated movements after they retreated to Hanzhong. Instead, they began to gradually mobilize food and grass to Fangling. A certain scout has been ordered
Close surveillance.”
Fangling is the only way from Hanzhong to Xiangyang. The transfer of grain and grass to Fangling shows that Wei Xiaokuan and Yuchi Jiong should be planning to support Xiangyang.
