To Rule in a Turbulent World

Chapter 165 Volume 4 Subtracting Word Magnolia

After the matter was silent, Lin Yuezhi said again: "From what I can see, the new emperor will start a large-scale northern expedition within a few days after he ascends the throne."

One of them stood up and said, "Huang Xiwen from Liuzhou."

"Young Master." Changyuan whispered, "Isn't Huang Xiwen the nephew of the county magistrate of Pei County? The Juren who was in the same department as you..."

You Miao nodded, signaling Changyuan to listen carefully.

Huang Xiwen: "Brother Lin put it lightly. The six prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River were initially determined. Our army was exhausted and our food and grass were not sustainable. What should we use to go to the Northern Expedition? When the capital fell from the 40 army, only [-] escaped. Now only the [-] troops led by General Nie Thousands of troops are stationed in Peixian County, and it will take less than ten years for the conscripts to accumulate strength for the Northern Expedition. If we start the war rashly, I am afraid that it will easily trigger a civil uprising."

Lin Yuezhi said: "In your opinion, how many people are needed for the Northern Expedition?"

Another pointed out a finger to the matter: "At least one hundred thousand soldiers and horses, three years of food and grass."

Lin Yuezhi said: "Brother Huang is far-sighted, but the current situation is the best time for the Northern Expedition. First of all, General Nie Dan won the first battle. Yu Pei County with less than [-] troops defeated the Xianbei Army with [-] troops. When they entered the customs, each tribe had [-] cavalry, and now General Nie has completely wiped out the Xianbei in the battle of Peixian."

"The morale is high today, and the recovery of the homeland is just around the corner." Lin Yuezhi said solemnly: "With General Nie as the leader, the conscripts in the south of the Yangtze River and the delivery of food and grass only need the whole country to work together, so why not worry about it? In this situation, over time, you will lose your aggressiveness!"

Tang Bo stood up and said slowly, "Have you ever asked if the people in the south of the Yangtze River are willing to use all their strength to assemble a large army and go to the north to fight?!"

"Can't fight!" One person shouted, and the others responded one after another.

"In the past few years, grain and taxes have been collected, and salaries have been collected to train troops." Someone said: "A hundred thousand Jiangnan recruits were dispatched to go north and handed over to Tang Hui and others to command. How many died in battle? How many returned to Jiangnan alive? ? The result? The children of Jiangdong did not come back, they all died for the country, and the Central Plains did not defend..."

You Miao felt that the anger of the people in the south of the Yangtze River seemed to have reached its peak. Someone below spoke, and immediately many people were in a turbulent mood, opposing the immediate Northern Expedition.But Lin Yuezhi, Tang Bo and others were silent on the stage, and their voices gradually died down, and then one of them coughed a few times and made a gesture for Shizhong.

"Whoever has a high opinion may wish to come to the stage and talk about it." Na Geshizhong said.

Immediately, no one made a sound in the audience, Chang Yuan mocked: "It's all about shrinking heads."

You Miao smiled, indicating that Changyuan should not say more. Tianqi would not kill literati after the founding of the country, but if he said he would not kill, no one knew how the new king would be. Nian Sunyu was exiled and sent away like that, so as not to be disliked in front of the emperor, it was helpless.Except for Lin Yuezhi, everyone didn't know what Zhengshitang's attitude was, and they didn't dare to be the first bird rashly.

To make everyone quiet, Nai got up and said, "My surname is Lin, Lin Mai, and Brother Lin are in the same family."

The Lin surname is also a big family in the south of the Yangtze River. Lin Yue looked at the man up and down and nodded. You Miao secretly thought that the two might be of the same family. After Lin Mai pondered for a while, he asked Lin Yuezhi, "You know, brother Yue How many people can be supported by a single land in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Lin Yuezhi laughed it off: "It must be enough to raise Tianqi for three to five years. One day, if the Hu people beat Jiangnan, can brother Taiwan still stand here and talk about it?"

The literati started clamoring again, and another person came up to the stage and said, "You must, you two Lin brothers...but listen to... despicable... brother, don't go to war."

The man went up and bowed his hands to everyone. At that time, the weather was very hot, and the sun was three poles high, and everyone was already sweating like rain. You Miao took a look and recognized that it was Chen, who had been selected by Enke when Zhao Min was in power. Qing, couldn't help laughing.

Chen Qing: "Your Majesty ascended the throne yesterday, and the night before... I watched the stars at night, and got another hexagram, which is... Shang Liu!"

Everyone was speechless, the corners of Lin Yuezhi's mouth twitched, and everyone in the Political Affairs Hall looked at Chen Qing together.

Tang Bodao: "Vice Supervisor, in my opinion it's not as good as..."

Chen Qing waved his hand again, signaling to everyone: "Let's let...let me talk, finish talking..."

You Miao rested her forehead with her hands, and couldn't bear to see him. A familiar voice from the side laughed and said, "This fellow ran fast at the beginning, but he became the deputy supervisor of the Sitian Supervisor as soon as he came."

You Miao turned around and saw that it was Lin Luoyang, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and said in surprise: "You are here too? Are you not working today?"

Lin Luoyang put one hand on You Miao's shoulder, and explained: "The official department is nearby, come and have a look, here, look over there."

You Miao looked around and saw three more people standing on the other side of the arena, one was Pingxi, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, the other was Qin Shaonan, the servant of the Ministry of household affairs, and there was another person whom he had never seen before.

The Ministry of Households holds the power of food and money, and the forces in the south of the Yangtze River are absolutely unwilling to let go. The former governor of Yangzhou recommended that a local official surnamed Xie take up the post of Shangshu. Zhao Chao must have given in, but sent the Shangshu below The assistant minister arranged for those who fled south.

The Ministry of War is in charge of the military, and it must be driven by northern talents. Pingxi was in charge of the Ministry of War back then, and the post of Shangshu must belong to him. Lin Luoyang was in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Nod in greeting.

Lin Luoyang said to You Miao: "His name is Xie Quan, he is the nephew of the servant of the household department, he is similar to you, and he also grew up in Beijing, and he has not a good relationship with the clan. He didn't come when you came to Beijing, you When he returned to Jiangnan, he happened to go to Beijing. When it was time for you to take the exam, he went back to his hometown to attend his father’s funeral, so he just missed it. He is the best friend with us.”

You Miao understood that what Lin Luoyang meant was just one sentence, three words: one of my own.

"Li Yan didn't come?" You Miao asked.

Pingxi brought the two of them over, Lin Luoyang said, "He doesn't show his face."

Ping Xi was sweating profusely, and asked, "Where is Your Majesty?"

You Miao shook her head slightly. She didn't know when Zhao Chao would come, but Qin Shaonan pouted into the political affairs hall and said, "Didn't you see so many guards arranged inside?"

You Miao immediately understood, so Zhao Chao was probably listening in the wall, maybe Sun Yu was also drinking tea... At this time, everyone laughed, thinking that Chen Qing said something on the stage.

Chen Qing stammered and said, "What are you laughing at? This is a lesson passed down by our ancestors, you don't understand it, everything changes, and the heavens will feel it. On the sixth day, the dragon fights in the wild, and its blood is black and yellow At this time, there is a disaster of swordsmanship, which is very ominous, and the new emperor ascends the throne..."

"How long do you plan to let this guy talk?" Ping Xi said helplessly.
