Chapter 584 Dongming County (1)
Why fatal?
Please refer to the punishment for Han Jiang. The punishment of Xuanfu was absent from the law, which means that you, the Xuanfu envoy, did not do a good job. Because of your incompetence and made a mistake, you were demoted to the magistrate Caizhou.
And this happened not long ago.
Now Wen Yanbo is also incompetent and the Privy Councilor has not done a good job. What should he do?
This forced Wen Yanbo to death. Wen Yanbo had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to retire and return home."
The slap was too fierce, and Wen Yanbo had no shame to stay in the Western Palace.
How can that work?
Sun Gu said: "Your Majesty, Wang Ju is young and energetic, and he is proud of his merits. He does not know the importance of his words. He actually scolds the prince to so many scholars and officials, and is more like Li Linfu. Your Majesty should punish him seriously."
How is it possible to punish Wang Ju severely now? Sun Gu said this, but he gave Wen Yanbo a step. It was not Wen Yanbo alone who said it. Eighty percent of the ministers agreed. Could it be that so many ministers are all priests? That one is not as good as your Wang Ju, and some of them can be your grandfather!
The actual leader is Wen Yanbo.
However, many ministers could not sit still after Sun Gu's revision and made suggestions.
Zhao Xu waved his hand and said, "Duke Wen, write a draft edict to Wang Ju, and our dynasty is China in the world. It is a country with etiquette. You cannot learn from the small countries of foreign countries, nor can you speak without trust. Regardless of right or wrong, I have written a letter of nationality, so you must keep your promise. Let him do it according to the letter of nationality. As for the hiding of the envoy, it is a wrong way. Today we can withhold the envoys, and tomorrow Xixia and Liao will also withhold the envoys of our dynasty. Su Wu's tragedy will be repeated. Well, let him admit one of the three Xia envoys. That's it, let everyone disperse."
What should I do? If Wen Yanbo is punished, it will involve a large number of people.
So Zhao Xu got along with the mud.
But no matter how Zhao Xu was mixed with him, Wen Yanbo finished writing the edict, he was said to have been seriously ill by Wang Ju, and then recovered from his illness at home.
This is the second person who was overwhelmed by Wang Ju.
Moreover, Wen Yanbo had a great influence, so the impeachment of the book kept flying towards Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu remained silent.
Wen Yanbo may not have had a disease this time, but at this time, what should he do if he is not sick? Will he be embarrassed to come to the West Mansion to take charge of military affairs? Therefore, if he is sick, it will be easier to avoid this limelight and will make public opinion more change.
The edict was brought to Wang Ju's hands.
It was the one who issued the edict, and Wang Ju asked about the situation in the court.
Eunuch Huang briefly explained it and said, "Ming Gong, before leaving, the official told me to give you instructions and you must obey the edict."
Wang Ju thought about it and understood it a little. First, Zhao Xu did not want to dismiss Wen Yanbo for the time being, although this might be a very bad decision. Second, since Xixia cannot be destroyed, let's make some concessions, and the country may turn its focus to Xihe.
He nodded and ordered people to release Wei Ming Kerong and his party.
Xiao Huang was shocked, why did she behave like this? She was so thin that she was skinny.
Wang Ju asked the three messengers to sit down and said, "The official family let me apologize to you."
Wei Ming Kerong kept silent.
"I made a mistake in judgment, I apologize to you now."
Wei Ming Kerong still kept silent. He suffered too much in the cell. Not only did he not eat well, but he was also tortured by the prisoners every day. This was anger.
Wang Ju suddenly slapped the table and said, "I apologize to you, what else do you want!"
Lu Ning hurriedly grabbed the conversation and said, "Since Wang Zhizhou apologized, just treat it as a misunderstanding."
"No hurry, I apologize to you, but why did you Xixia spend ten thousand taels of gold to buy a head of a certain neck from the assassin?"
"Ah, is this happening?" said Xiao Huang in surprise.
"Just about to trouble the envoy to bring these to the official family to read." Wang Ju asked Wang Zichuan to bring a stack of files, which recorded that there were several people who were not weird about Wang Ju's plot, and it was not easy to assassinate Wang Ju. However, facing the temptation of ten thousand taels of gold, some people were still moved. However, they were not successful, and were captured by Wang Ju's personal guards, and then tortured the truth and chopped their heads.
Eunuch Huang flipped through and said, "Mr. Ming, you really have to be careful."
At that time, Xia Shu posted a list of people in the downtown area, saying that if someone gets the head of Yuanhao, he would be rewarded with five million chunks of money and be named King Xiping.
Why is there a king named Xiping?
Think about it, would it be possible if the masters of the Song Dynasty were asked to assassinate Li Yuanhao?
Therefore, Xia Shun hopes that this heavy money and the Chongju will attract some people within the Western Xia to kill Li Yuanhao.
But Li Yuanhao was very calm and replied to a document. Some people who had the best chance of getting a fortune would be rewarded with two cents of money.
This has become a major stain in Xia Shu's life.
But think about it seriously, did Xia Shu do something wrong? If he really succeeded, Xixia would have no Li Yuanhao and no leader, would the Qingli War be so tragic?
It's very similar now. If Wang Ju hadn't been Wang Ju, the army of 300,000 would come, even if Huanzhou and Qingzhou were not taken down, at least one Dashun City would be captured. Moreover, in the past, Xixia seemed to have paid a bounty to buy Wang Ju's head, which led to Wang Ju's assassination. However, the bounty was not as high as that at that time.
If someone really killed Wang Ju, and his reputation as Wang Ju in the hearts of the people of Xixia, Liang would really give this bounty.
However, unlike Li Yuanhao, how many guards can Wang Ju have around him? Wang Ju is an official, not the lord of a country.
"Envoy Huang Zhong, if I ask Xixia to cancel this head reward order and release the prisoners of war, it would be too much."
"This... seems..." Eunuch Huang really couldn't answer. The edict asked Wang Ju to release the prisoners of war, but this head reward order was hanging on the head of that minister, which was uncomfortable.
Wang Ju didn't wait for the reply from Eunuch Huang, and said to Weiming Kerong and the other two: "You go back and report to your Queen Mother Liang, when will the bounty be cancelled and when will I withdraw from Yanzhou, of course, you will also release your Xixia prisoners of war."
There was no difficulty in Wei Ming Kerong, nor did he put forward excessive conditions. Wei Ming Kerong and the other two rode back to report.
Eunuch Huang asked worriedly: "It is Xixia who canceled this bounty. If you release the prisoners of war, they will take out this bounty again. What should I do?"
"Not yet. After this war, Xixia was beaten into a mess. If it weren't for the financial difficulties of the Song Dynasty, maybe this war could have destroyed Xixia."
Wang Ju tried his best to bite this sentence to death.
Great opportunity. But I did not destroy Xixia. Can I say I am wary?
Who made peace the mainstream?
"Oh, ah." Eunuch Huang didn't know the truth, so he sighed repeatedly after hearing this. What a pity.
I believe that Zhao Xu will feel a pity whenever he thinks about it in the future.
"What they need is recovery time, unless I use troops to other places, such as Chen Bingxihe. Then Xixia will offer a bounty again. After all, they overestimated me and thought that a thousand troops were easy to obtain, but a general was hard to find. As long as I was eliminated, I would fall to the Great Wall. But do I have the ability they imagined?"
In fact, the focus of this sentence is on the front, and don’t take it seriously if you are humble afterwards.
As long as Mr. Huang brings this sentence back, it will leave a deep impression on Zhao Xu. Oh, Wang Ju is my Great Wall. Wang Ju will not be afraid of some people coming to deal with him in the future.
"Ming Gong can be the Great Wall of the Great Song Dynasty," Xiao Huang praised, and asked again: "Will Xixia obey the peace agreement in the future?"
"No, as long as they recover, they will continue to plunder immediately. Of course, they may depend on the situation. If I were in Qingzhou, they would never dare to plunder Qingzhou. But I am gone, they must deal with this section of Hengshan. The so-called peace talks are just their moves to win a chance to breathe. Just like Li Jiqian back then. But everyone doesn't give up. I am just a magistrate, what can I say?"
Wang Ju couldn't say anything, so Eunuch Huang naturally didn't dare to say anything, so Eunuch Huang went back to report his life.
Wang Ju also returned to Qingzhou City, and he gave two orders.
The first order is that after seven days, all the people who are transporting salt will stop transporting salt and must go back.
This is to transport salt to grab money. As long as you pull a truck of salt from the mouth of the canopy to several fortresses on the front line, the people can get five or six jin of money. Of course, in addition to paying part of the materials for the people of Yanzhou to collect salt, the government can also get four or five jin of money to the soldiers of the three armies.
Moreover, the location of Wang Ju General's salt delivery has been dozens of miles ahead of schedule, which undoubtedly increased the speed of salt transportation.
In less than ten days, you can get five or six guan of money, but how much grain you have to buy for five or six guan, especially the beans and wheat produced in Qingzhou, which is not as expensive as rice.
Now that Wang Ju uses this order to buy people, he can delay it. Maybe it can delay it for a month. How much income will it increase to the people?
But the problem cannot be thought of this.
This is like the Tian Dynasty before Wang Jucheng. Whatever the Tian Dynasty produces is cheaper and whatever it buys is expensive.
Whatever is produced is cheap, not only because of the low labor cost, but also because of the lower labor cost of the Hei Shu uncles is even lower. This is also because of the diligence of the Han people, as well as the government's infrastructure, policies and other factors. Not only is the low labor cost, but also efficient. Another reason is that it is related to the latter.
Chips that China cannot produce may only cost ten yuan per piece, but they may be sold to China for fifty yuan. However, as long as China can produce, it will immediately suppress the price, causing its profit margin to decline, making Chinese companies lack R&D capital and enthusiasm, thus achieving the goal of suppressing China's technological upgrades.
This is another problem, that is, the film's protection month.
There are many benefits to introducing Western blockbusters, which can allow domestic filmmakers to see the gap with the outside world and expand the market. It is the pull of Western blockbusters that many viewers enter the cinema, so there are more theaters and larger market capacity. But what they pay is that many profits are taken away by Westerners, and many others are further brainwashed. Why are there so many cent leads? This is a variety of channels of bewitching, among which these blockbusters are also one of the indispensable channels.
So you have to give national movies a little room for survival and growth, otherwise you will watch Western blockbusters for several lifetimes, watch many people brainwashed by these blockbusters, and watch these profits taken away by foreigners.
Moreover, the film industry is a truly smoke-free industry. It not only provides taxes, but also provides countless employment opportunities.
Is this done wrong?
That country has no protection policy, just like why Huawei cannot enter the US imperial examination?
The two have a big connection, that is, if you want to avoid being stuck in your neck, you must have it in your own hands.
What's in your hands now, food!
The summer harvest is about to begin, but because the profits before are too high, many people are almost about to forget the crops in the fields.
Not only summer harvest, but also autumn harvest. If the autumn crops are not managed now, you can’t expect autumn to come and there will be a good harvest.
If the crops in the entire Huanqing two prefectures are not harvested, it will cause a series of problems.
Moreover, after this battle, the grain storage on Shaanxi Road was also exhausted. In addition, Wang Anshi narrowed the supply in the rear in order to issue Qingmiao loans. This is not a serious problem. The most serious thing is that Wang Ju originally wanted to deal with Sima Guang, but unexpectedly became Wen Yanbo.
Wen Yanbo was now covered by Wang Jusan's head.
But what will he do when his vitality recovers? As long as he speaks hard and the government uses various reasons to make excuses along the way, there will be a grain crisis in the two prefectures of Huanqing, and at least the grain price will rise rapidly.
Once this situation occurs, it will be Wang Ju's turn to be sad.
Therefore, Wang Ju asked the people to go home to farm, and that is your job...
But the salt transport was not over.
Wang Ju issued another secret order, which was to identify the prisoners of war with good performance, but he increased the number a lot and turned into 45,000 prisoners of war. There were more than 20,000 prisoners of war in Hengshan area in front, and the number of prisoners of war released was nearly three-quarters. It had nothing to do with the imperial edict, but Wang Ju's heart was softer again.
However, it is not so easy to release it. These prisoners of war will be taken to Hengshan to gather and then let them transport salt. Each person can only release it after reaching twenty stones of green salt.
This is a bit troublesome. There are so many prisoners of war, some are building roads and forts, some are transporting supplies, and some are transporting supplies in the rear.
Wang Ju whispered: "First identify the prisoners of war in the rear, and then send them to the front line immediately. As for the supplies, they should re-enlist the people. Then they sent people to secretly threaten that it was not because Qingzhou wanted to conquer the people, but because the court was weak. He repeatedly ordered Qingzhou to release the prisoners of war, and had no choice but to requisition them."
"In this way, you will completely go against Duke Wen..." Zhang Feng said worriedly.
"If I don't do this, I will also be opposite to Duke Wen. But after doing this, at least in the hearts of ordinary people, I will occupy a moral point and will not make people make trouble." Wang Ju said lightly.
There is another thing that Wang Ju didn't say, that is the Dongming County incident... (To be continued...) i1292
