One hundred and ninety-three Zhao Kaishan feels a headache

The generals of the Zhao family and the military supervisors in their army are all one family. Maybe they have a higher seniority, so it is hard to say who cares about whom they are together.

For example, Zhao Zuoliang, who is of a very seniority, the military supervisor sent to him by Zhao Kaishan is a junior, and he dare not do anything offensive to Zhao Zuoliang at all.

If he wanted to do something, he would be depressed by Zhao Zuoliang and would not dare to act rashly.

But it is different for foreign generals.

What can the Zhao army supervisors do? The foreign generals are unimaginable.

Among the original five main forces, the Zhao family generals occupied three of them. Later, Zhao Yucheng and Zhao Kaihe were taken down, and the situation changed.

Chen Qiaoshan still defeated the enemy's command, while Zhao Xiang still chose the front-superior army, which has not changed.

The Beiwei Army led by Zhao Yucheng was taken over by Li Xiao, and the Tabai Army led by Zhao Kaihe was handed over to Zhao Zuoliang, while the You Yi Army led by Li Xiao was handed over to another foreign general Zhou Zhi.

In this way, three of the five main forces, including three foreign generals, only two of them, their own family's power is shrinking, and the outsiders' power is increasing, which makes Zhao Kaishan feel insecure.

Although Chen Qiaoshan and Li Xiao were both subordinates he recruited for many years, and the newly promoted Zhou Zhi was also his subordinate for many years, it is not necessary to believe it, and suspicion does not require reason.

It all depends on the ruler's own preferences.

So on the one hand, he added four armies in front, back, left and right, gave four military numbers, and on the other hand, he established a military supervision system, specifically targeting the generals of the commander-in-chief.

Three of the Zhao family members were the commanders of the four armies in front, back, and left and right. Only one general in the foreign surname was selected. Perhaps it was only for public opinion that it was reluctant to make the appearance of food too ugly.

In this way, the Zhao family occupied five of the nine armies, and there were only four generals from other surnames. They were all from Zhao Kaishan's elite servant team, and they could basically be considered Zhao Kaishan's own people.

As a result, the existence of military supervisors must be added.

Basically, it can be said that the entire Zhao Kaishan family is a man, an adult, with hands and feet but not disabled, with normal brains and no dementia, and they have already held positions in the Restoration Army.

It can be said that one person has attained enlightenment, and a chicken and a dog have ascended to heaven.

This also made foreign generals talk more privately.

First of all, I feel that Zhao Kaishan is too generous to the Zhao family, and he is really a bit unethical and ugly to eat.

Secondly, I felt that Zhao Kaishan was starting to feel uneasy about everyone, and began to be wary of everyone's power, and wanted to limit everyone's power, which was a bit heartbreaking.

However, Zhao Kaishan wanted to add a firewall, which was not without precedent. Positions such as military supervisors were common in the army after the Song Dynasty, so no one raised any objections.

So, taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Kaishan felt that the time was coming, so he carried Zhao Kaihe, who had been dismissed before, and asked him to be the supervisor of the Beiwei Army, and openly monitor Li Xiao.

Zhao Kaihe was defeated. Even if Zhao Kaishan's relatives continued to take military positions, it would be inappropriate, which could easily cause dissatisfaction among the people. Zhao Kaishan was worried about this and simply gave him a military supervisor.

Don’t worry about the army and war, just pay attention to Li Xiao’s loyalty.

The fact that Li Xiao and Su Yonglin kept in contact with letters is not a secret in the army. Several people knew that it seemed that Chen Qiaoshan also had letters with Su Yonglin, and the same was true for his son Zhao Yucheng.

Su Yonglin left, but the influence was everywhere. Several people around him kept the letters open with Su Yonglin, and he didn't know what they were talking about, so he was very alert and unhappy.

Be sure to keep an eye on them and tell me any changes!

Zhao Kaishan told Zhao Kaihe so much, and also instructed the other military supervisors.

After all the nine generals were in place, Zhao Kaishan felt a little relaxed and could have a little rest.

Otherwise, it would be really hard to sleep well.

Only after sleeping well can Zhao Kaishan continue to send troops to "expand territory" and occupy the prefectures.

After the strategic separation, Zhao Kaishan successively occupied Tengzhou, Xuzhou, and Jeju, and then controlled Caozhou and Shanzhou, and stationed troops in Jeju, preparing to enter Daming Prefecture to start the strategy.

The Jin soldiers in these places are not very powerful, and it is hard to say that they have a large number of people. There is no established garrison. As soon as the Restoration Army rushed, these local troops, which were mainly the grain-shooting army, were defeated and fleeing in a swarm.

Although most of these battles were directed by Li Xiao and Chen Qiaoshan and had no direct relationship with Zhao Kaishan, since Li Xiao and Chen Qiaoshan under his command, of course, he had his contribution.

Relying on these military achievements, Zhao Kaishan gradually eliminated the decline after his previous defeat, and his previous slightly unstable position became stable again.

At this moment, Zhao Kai's messenger arrived and reported to Zhao Kaishan about the Southern Song Dynasty's sending people to the officials to recruit officials.

Zhao Gou asked Zhao Kaishan to be the commander of Shandong East and West Roads, and to control the military and political power of the two routes, and to have all the power to act cheaply.

In addition, Zhao Kaishan could also arrange officials from all over the country by himself. As long as he was on the registration list, the court would not disagree in principle.

This is of course a favorable condition, but Zhao Kaishan felt a headache when he heard it.

Before, he still had fantasies and admiration for the Southern Song court, but as his power expanded, he no longer wanted to surrender and be a subject for an emperor who could not even get a bed.

That's very embarrassing.

And you have to follow orders and damage your autonomy, which is not worth it.

Moreover, when the Southern Song Dynasty came to the government to recruit officials at this time, wasn’t it just that they wanted to pick peaches?

You don’t come when I need you, but you only come after I make a name for you. It’s clear that I want to take advantage of it.

It is rare to be shameless to this extent.

But there is no way, who will make people a country?

Zhao Kaishan thought about it and felt uneasy, so he called Zhao Zuoling, the senior citizen, to his side and consulted him about this issue.

Zhao Zuoliang felt very embarrassed.

He is actually better at being a human being, but when it comes to actual things, his ability is limited. I can only say that his mind is clear and not easy to be confused, but his decisions are still not easy.

Seeing that Zhao Zuoliang had difficulty making a decision, Zhao Kaishan called Zhao Xiang over.

Although this incompetent tribe member would not make any achievements in military affairs, he still had some cleverness. Zhao Kaishan felt that he needed Zhao Zuoliang's clear mind and Zhao Xiang's cleverness. The two of them combined can be considered military advisors.

Even a dog-headed military advisor is fine.

Zhao Xiang was full of bad water and liked to take advantage of it. When he heard that the Southern Song Dynasty sent people to give officials to recruit officials, he immediately became interested.

"Accept it, why not? Wouldn't it be a waste if you don't accept such a good opportunity? How many people have no choice but to beg for such an opportunity, and the brother gets it without any effort. Why should you still worry?"

"Accept? Then I am the minister of that eunuch Zhao Gou? How can I be willing to be a eunuch? And I have to obey his orders. I have to hold an army of 200,000, so why should I surrender to others?"

Zhao Kaishan was very unhappy.

Zhao Xiang quickly persuaded him.

"The problem is not Zhao Gou, but Song State is a big country, and can confront the Jin people. Haven't my brother been worried that we will be unable to resist after the Jin army goes south? By that time, isn't our Song State official position a way out?

If we win, it doesn’t matter. If we win, we will naturally not force us to do anything as long as we have enough strength. It is okay to even rule the river. If we lose, we will retreat directly into the southern territory, which is also a way out.”

"this……"

Zhao Xiang's statement was a bit exciting to Zhao Kaishan.

Indeed, he did have similar concerns, and it was indeed his wish to limit Su Yonglin, but since the dust has settled, he is the unshakable commander of the Restoration Army, so he must take into account the life and death of the Restoration Army.

If Su Yonglin was finished in Hebei, it would be hard to say that the Restoration Army could withstand the attack of the Jin army.

At that time, the army will be defeated like a mountain, and the entire Shandong will have no place to stand, and the family will be facing destruction, which will be a big deal.

He still remembers the fact that 50,000 or 60,000 troops were pressed to the ground and rubbed by 4,000 Jin army cavalry.

Four thousand is like this. If it is 40,000, don’t enter the next cycle directly, fast forward to the ten heroes?

No, no.

Zhao Kaishan didn't want the whole family to be killed, so they needed a way out.

After becoming an official from the State of Song, Shandong's foundation will be over and the Zhao family will not have no place to go. They can only be trapped and killed in Shandong and then killed. There is still a way to go.

But if they don’t become officials of Song State, and the Restoration Army will be over when the time comes, they want to flee to Song State, but Song State does not accept it, what should they do?

Zhao Kaishan thought of this and felt that this matter was really necessary.

Even if you just leave a way out for yourself?

So Zhao Kaishan nodded slightly. Just as he was about to say something, Zhao Zuoliang suddenly felt worried and expressed his concern.
