Chapter 66: Rebellion everywhere, order takes root! (Seeking votes)
Time flies by.
I have to say that Wolong's analysis is obviously very correct.
Lin Zhongyun sent out many spies, who kept a close eye on the movements outside Handan city.
The governor did mobilize an army of 50,000.
However, they did not go straight to Shuntian as Xiang Maoliang said, but stationed at the border of Cangzhou, as if they were worried about something.
After being completely sure of this, Lin Zhongyun was completely relieved.
Without hesitation, he directly applied the training method proposed by "Feng Chu" on the soldiers under his command.
The plan formulated by Fengchu was very detailed.
He really took the physical conditions of these people into consideration, and the training program involved was from shallow to deep, so as not to let these refugees who had been hungry for many years undergo high-intensity training from the beginning.
At the same time, Lin Zhongyun also started the planned education program for children.
Lin Zhongyun had already gathered a lot of literate people before, so teaching these children and refugees to read was definitely not a problem.
In fact, Lin Zhongyun’s biggest problem at present is the huge gap between the volunteers under his command and the officers and soldiers.
The reason why seven cities were easily captured in succession was, firstly, due to the negligence of the imperial court, and secondly, because the defenses of these cities were not good.
But the next war was different.
Lin Zhongyun has now obviously become the number one traitor. If he moves a hair out, the entire body will be moved. The imperial court will not allow Lin Zhongyun to leave Cangzhou.
It is obviously unwise to fight a life-and-death battle with the imperial court now!
At the same time, Lin Zhongyun also began selecting personnel for the intelligence department.
These days, Lin Zhongyun would observe the beggars in Shuntian City almost every day, and even had people distribute food to these beggars.
Soon, Lin Zhongyun noticed a young man.
The boy's name is Yuan Jingxin and he is just fourteen years old.
Compared to other beggars, he is extremely alert.
After noticing that Lin Zhongyun seemed to be paying attention to these beggars in the past few days, the young man finally found Lin Zhongyun directly at night.
And he directly said that he wanted to work for Lin Zhongyun.
The boy's eyes were extremely clear and his expression was extremely stubborn.
Lin Zhongyun looked at the young man, did not agree to him directly, and sent him back.
But the boy still told Lin Zhongyun every day that he wanted to work for Lin Zhongyun.
Finally, after he had persisted for three days.
Lin Zhongyun then gave him a task, which was to find out some information in Handan City and not to reveal the information.
The intelligence system is of great importance, and Lin Zhongyun must test the ability of this young man, although Lin Zhongyun can also feel the boy's alertness and determination.
But being smart doesn't mean things will get better, so Lin Zhongyun wants to test him.
And these days, Lin Zhongyun has been taking in refugees from all over the place to strengthen his own strength.
There was no unrest in any city.
Lin Zhongyun's reputation is so high now that no one violates the rules he set. Even if someone breaks the rules occasionally, they will be immediately intimidated by the people in the city, and there is no need for the people sent by Lin Zhongyun to take action.
Order, taking root without anyone noticing
At the same time, Handan City.
"Sir, why don't you go and kill Lin Zhongyun?"
Xiang Maoliang, who had just returned to Handan, walked into the hall with an angry look on his face and said to Li Shaoqi without regard for etiquette.
"Ok?"
Li Shaoqi raised his head and frowned.
Instantly, Xiang Maoliang's expression changed slightly, and he quickly bowed to Li Shaoqi and said, "Please don't blame me, sir. I am the one who was rude."
Li Shaoqi glanced at him calmly, not too angry. Xiang Maoliang also breathed a sigh of relief, took a deep breath and calmed himself down, and said softly: "Sir, Lin Zhongyun has made it clear that he will not submit to the court."
"Why don't we send troops to defeat him?"
Xiang Maoliang was really a little angry. As a scholar, Xiang Maoliang always had his own pride.
Now he was being played tricks by Lin Zhongyun, a guy who was born a refugee.
How could he not feel resentful?
Hearing this, Li Shaoqi couldn't help but shook his head and sighed softly, "Maoliang, compared to others, you are indeed a little immature."
"Sir." Xiang Maoliang's face immediately showed panic, and he quickly asked: "What do you mean?"
Being evaluated like this by a superior is not a good sign in the government.
"Let me ask you, Cangzhou has suffered from disasters for four years. What is the situation in various places now?"
Li Shaoqi just looked at Xiang Maoliang calmly and said lightly.
Hearing this, Xiang Maoliang was silent for a moment, and asked tentatively: "The people are living in misery?"
Li Shaoqi nodded and said again: "Then tell me again, based on the current situation of Daqian, how do Jiangnan and Zhongyuan compare with Cangzhou?"
"Of course, Cangzhou is incomparable, Cangzhou."
Xiang Maoliang opened his mouth to answer immediately, but before he could finish, he suddenly stopped and suddenly realized something.
Seeing this, Li Shaoqi revealed a trace of satisfaction, sighed and said: "Now there are rebels everywhere in the world."
"There is a fisherman in Yuzhou, Jiangnan, named Chen Jun. He has also rebelled and joined forces with the refugees to capture two cities in Yuzhou."
"There is also a landlord in Zhongyuan Zhongzhou who has raised a big banner. This person is quite wealthy and has gathered countless refugees. His influence is not inferior to that of Lin Zhongyun at all."
"There are also rebels in other states and counties."
"What do you think of the threat these two people pose compared to Lin Zhongyun?"
As he finished speaking, Li Shaoqi's expression remained calm.
But Xiang Maoliang's expression changed completely at this moment.
He has fully understood the court's intention!
That is, compared with Yuzhou, Cangzhou and other places, Cangzhou now has little significance!
Today's Daqian does not have the ability to directly take action against all the rebels, and Cangzhou can only follow behind.
As if he had seen through Xiang Maoliang's thoughts, Li Shaoqi sighed and said, "Because of Prince Su's relationship, the court has forgiven our crimes."
"But the court asked us to cooperate with the states to deal with other rebels first."
"As for Lin Zhongyun."
"As long as he stops making trouble, let's just leave it alone."
"Just have someone keep an eye on him first."
Xiang Mao was silent for a long time. Although he was still a little unwilling in his heart, he immediately nodded and bowed to Li Shaoqi: "Sir."
"I wonder if I can write a manifesto to denounce the rebels?"
He really couldn't swallow this humiliation. Although he couldn't hit Lin Zhongyun, he had to scold him!
And maybe you can even gain fame!
Hearing this, Li Shaoqi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded immediately: "Go."
Of course, the most powerful skill of a scholar is his eloquence.
Li Shaoqi naturally would not refuse such a thing.
"I am resigning."
Xiang Maoliang's expression suddenly brightened with joy. He immediately bowed to Li Shaoqi and walked out directly!
