516 [Unexpected]
During the restructuring of the Western Army, the positions of Xiao Jin and other coaches will not change. It just requires a detailed disarmament list and some adjustments to the generals below. Generally speaking, it will not be too troublesome.
The addition of Xiang troops in Lingzhou means that the new governor must be well versed in military affairs, and he must also be able to impress the officials below, which can be said to further raise the requirements. Since Li Bingzhong was rejected by the emperor, and Zhao Xianhong was even further behind, the remaining people to choose from
Not much more.
Although he knew that it was not the time to review the situation yet, Pei Yue could not help but review the entire process from the beginning, trying to find the true purpose of Wang Pingzhang's various detours.
The disarmament of the Western Army should not be a big problem. After all, this is Wang Pingzhang's duty as the left military commander of the Western Prefecture, and even from Pei Yue's perspective, the other party's arrangements are very reasonable. But Lingzhou Governor
It must be linked to the military, which in Pei Yue's opinion is worth pondering.
From the beginning to now, Pei Yue had a feeling in his heart that Wang Pingzhang was not paving the way for Li Bingzhong, he must have a deeper plan.
At this moment, he heard Wang Pingzhang say sincerely: "Your Majesty, after much thought, there is someone who is very suitable for me."
Emperor Kaiping asked: "Who is it?"
Wang Pingzhang said calmly: "Marquis of Jining, Tang Youzhi."
Everyone was shocked, and then suddenly realized, several people nodded frequently, and even Emperor Kaiping showed an expression of approval after being slightly shocked.
First of all, it needs to be explained that Tang Youzhi's foundation is not strong, and the Tang family is inconspicuous among the martial arts giants in Kyoto. Officials at the upper, middle and lower levels in the court thought that Tang Youzhi had made great achievements this time, and that he might be able to join Gu Liang as a military officer in the future.
First grade
But at this moment, the important ministers in the palace knew that this was absolutely impossible, because the real credit for the war in the Western Region lay with Pei Yue. Although Tang Youzhi was also very eye-catching, it was difficult for him to develop his own power.
Secondly, Tang You was well versed in military affairs and knew people well, as can be seen from the fact that he promoted Yang Yingji, who was hated by people and dogs, as the experienced officer of Longgong Camp. The governor of a state does not need to do everything personally. The most important thing is to know how to use his officials.
There is no doubt about Tang Youzhi's ability in this area. At the same time, he was promoted to the interim coach of the Western Army this time. He won the national war with Xiwu and his prestige in Lingzhou was unparalleled for a while. Others could not compare with him.
In the end, such a choice fully demonstrated Wang Pingzhang's fairness. Not only were Emperor Kaiping and Mo Haoli very satisfied, but even Pei Yue could not say anything against it.
Lingzhou is the foundation of Zangfengwei, and Tang Youzhi is his old friend. What reason does he have to object to such a recommendation?
If he objects to this, not only will other ministers question his true intentions, but even Emperor Kaiping will not let him go. After all, what the emperor wants is someone who dares to challenge Wang Pingzhang, rather than acting like a mad dog against him all the time.
.
At this moment, the only person in the palace who wanted to oppose was probably Li Pingzhong. However, he had clearly seen the emperor's attitude. The emperor would never give him this chance. In addition to being filled with bitterness and disappointment, he couldn't help but hate Pei Yue more and more. Obviously, it was because of this
The Pei family repeatedly sabotaged their own future.
New and old grudges were compounded, and he secretly gritted his teeth.
Emperor Kaiping muttered: "Tang Youzhi? He is indeed very suitable. But I have already issued an imperial edict to transfer him back to Kyoto and change him to the head coach of Nanying."
Wang Pingzhang remained silent, and anyone who looked at him would feel that he still wanted to push Li Bingzhong to the top.
Mo Haoli said calmly: "Your Majesty, there is no obstruction at this time. In fact, according to the ancient system, the governor has single-handed control of military and political power. However, compared with the Beijing camp and the border army, the strength of the Xiang army in each state is quite different.
Now Lingzhou has added two more guards and horses, totaling nearly 40,000.
Tang Youzhi has a place to display his talents. He is the first military officer to serve as governor in the dynasty, and your Majesty also made him a first-class prince, which is enough to reward his merits. However, since Tang Youzhi wants to stay in Lingzhou,
So is there going to be a change in the head coach of the Beijing Army’s South Camp?”
Emperor Kaiping looked at Wang Pingzhang with a serious look and asked: "What's the general will of Wei?"
Wang Pingzhang's expression was slightly bitter, as if he was a little sad that he had made such a big concession, and the emperor still wanted to capture Li Binzhong. He lowered his head slightly and said: "I will obey the holy decree."
Emperor Kaiping's eyes crossed Wang Pingzhang's and stayed on Li Yinzhong, and said slowly: "Li Qing's family, you have worked tirelessly for the country these years. It's been really hard. Let's take off the burden on your shoulders and rest for a while. But you can't relax too much.
, I will use you again in a while."
At this point, even Wang Pingzhang couldn't change the emperor's mind. What else could Li Binzhong say?
He could only pay homage with a big salute and say: "Your Majesty is so kind to me. I am inexplicably grateful. I will certainly share your worries and serve the imperial court."
"Pingshen." Emperor Kaiping nodded slightly, then looked at Wang Pingzhang and asked, "Who can take over as the commander-in-chief of the South Camp of the Beijing Army?"
Wang Pingzhang seemed to have guessed the emperor's intention a long time ago, and said calmly: "Dingjun Bo Luo Huanzhang."
Emperor Kaiping smiled and said: "That's right."
Wang Pingzhang added: "Your Majesty, if you want Luo Huanzhang to take over as the coach of Nanying, you need to at least make him a third-class prince."
Emperor Kaiping said: "He also made contributions in the war in the western region, so he was made a third-class Dingjunhou."
Wang Pingzhang bowed and said: "Your Majesty is wise."
This court meeting lasted for a long time, and Wang Pingzhang was the protagonist. Although he failed to retain Li Pingzhong despite his repeated efforts, the restructuring of the Western Army and Lingzhou laid a stable foundation for the Western Territory. The soldiers and horses withdrawn from the Western Territory can be enriched.
The Beijing camp and the southern border troops coincided with Emperor Kaiping's long-standing strategy of pacifying the world first before Zhou and then Wu.
Perhaps because of his selfless performance today, Emperor Kaiping looked very gentle and said calmly: "The West Mansion will write down the adjustment strategy of the Western Army in a complete form as soon as possible. The East Mansion will help Tang Youzhi build a capable and loyal governor's office. Wei Guogong,
The disarmament lists for the Western Camps and Hucheng are decided by the commanders themselves. As for the garrison generals of Guping Military City, you choose a general and report his name."
"I obey the decree."
Mo Haoli and Wang Pingzhang saluted together.
Li Binzhong felt a little sad and felt unworthy for Wang Pingzhang. He had made so many plans for the court and worked hard with all his heart and soul. In the end, he only got a place as a commander. This emperor on the dragon throne was too ruthless.
.
Emperor Kaiping recalled today's process and felt quite satisfied. He smiled and said, "Please step back, all your ministers."
This time he did not leave Pei Yue alone.
Of course Pei Yue didn't want to stay, because to be honest, his mind was in a mess right now.
Today's court meeting was a long process with many twists and turns, but in the end it far exceeded his original goal.
Xue Tao was dismissed from his post for investigation, and Li Pingzhong was deprived of his post and stayed at home. Although the Western Army reduced its troops, the top generals did not change. Xiao Jin was still guarding Hucheng, Yin Wei was guarding Jinshui Camp, Su Wu was guarding Longgong Camp, and Liu Dingyuan was guarding Dingxi Camp.
.Except for Su Wu, whom he didn't know very well, the other three were unquestionable in terms of ability and loyalty to Daliang. Such a lineup was enough to defend Xiwu, whose national power had been greatly damaged.
Tang Youzhi was appointed as the governor of Lingzhou, and at the same time he had military power in his hands and became the true military and political leader. This was the best news for the Zangfeng Guards. All of Pei Yue's elite family members were in Lingzhou, and Tang Youzhi helped to take care of them.
I believe they can follow Pei Yue into battle more fearlessly.
As for the Beijing army, the commander-in-chief of Xiying is still Changxing Hou Qujiang. This person is Wang Pingzhang's confidant. He should follow Wang Pingzhang's arrangements for everything except rebellion.
However, now Pei Yue himself is the deputy coach of Beiying, and the coach Tan Fu is old. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is just a transitional candidate. It is not difficult for Pei Yue to run Beiying. Luo Huanzhang is loyal and experienced.
A veteran with great achievements in the battlefield, not only Emperor Kaiping was relieved that he was in charge of the southern camp, but even Gu Liang found it difficult to intervene again.
Pei Yue could see that the emperor was very satisfied. After Gu Liang returned to the capital, he entered the Xifu and formed a pattern of keeping pace with Wang Pingzhang. Then after a huge national war, the Daliang army would stabilize as quickly as possible and move forward.
Then you can plan a general strategy to capture the Southern Zhou Dynasty.
The problem is that it all goes too smoothly.
Wang Pingzhang was always retreating. Although he tried to keep Li Binzhong, he finally gave up his power to a large extent.
Is he a saint?
Of course Pei Yue didn't believe it. If this was really the case, how could he massacre thousands of people in the Chen family? Even unrelated people like Pei Yue's biological father.
He couldn't guess what Wang Pingzhang wanted to do, so he couldn't help but feel chills in his heart.
"The Marquis of Zhongshan."
A calm voice came from behind.
Pei Yue woke up from his reverie, stopped and turned around. When he saw the middle-aged man slowly walking towards him, he put on a smile and said, "Master Shen."
Silent Cloud looked at him a few times, and seeing that he looked quite calm, he nodded slightly and said, "You can still keep your composure, that's good."
Pei Yue's heart moved and he looked at the other party with some expectation.
Silent Cloud said calmly: "I heard that there are countless invitations piled up in your study, so I didn't join in the fun. If you are free the day after tomorrow, you can come to the house and talk about it. I still have some details about the war in the Western Region.
Inquiry."
Pei Yue nodded and said, "Master Shen, I invite you. Pei Yue will definitely arrive the day after tomorrow."
"good."
Silent Cloud smiled lightly and left calmly.
Looking at his slim back, Pei Yue stood in the vast square in front of the palace and couldn't help but sigh a few secretly.
They are all a bunch of old foxes, and they really still need to practice.
Today was a big blow to him. The methods he thought of were almost like naughty playfulness in front of people like Wang Pingzhang and Mo Haoli. And until now, he has not seen Wang Pingzhang's true purpose. But Pei Yue's advantage is his perseverance.
’s will.
He can carve a bloody path on the battlefield, and he can also do it in the treacherous court.
After walking out of the palace, a familiar figure appeared in Pei Yue's sight.
