Chapter 966 Setting an Example
There were many more people at the banquet in the evening.
The left and right Cavalry Guard generals Shao Shen and Duan Liang, the left and right Jinwu Guard generals Chang Can and Huang Biao, the left and right Feilong Guard generals Xu Lang and Zhang Gu, the left and right Yulin Guard generals Yao Yuan and Miao Yuan and other government generals were all present - Zuo Yulin Wei will also "open" this year, and it will take a year or two to slowly build it up.
The Luoyang Central Army generals such as Pei Kuo, Yu An, He Zhong and others who were about to be dismissed, as well as the Central Commander Mi Huang and the Central Protector Chen Yougen who were also about to be dismissed, were also present to accompany them.
Yin Qiang, Hei Zhen and other "New Forbidden Army" generals did not come.
The overall standards are relatively high, reflecting the importance attached to the Liangzhou mission.
Bei Gongchun listened to Shao Xun's introduction one by one with mixed emotions.
Who are these people? Twenty or thirty years ago, it was extremely difficult for the King of Liang to get an official position. These people had no hope of becoming officials in their lives, let alone generals. What now?
Many of them were illiterate, but King Liang strongly urged and even beat and scolded them before they learned some words. They had no family background at all, and now they are in charge of a military force.
Except for the left and right Cavalry Guards, who are cavalry with only 4,800 men each, the rest are mostly 9,600 men.
This is nearly 10,000 soldiers, and when coupled with the strong servants, it becomes an army of 20,000, making him an absolute general of the country.
Have you missed a lot?
Bei Gongchun didn't dare to think like this, and felt that it was too unconscionable, so he just drank.
Shao Xun was talking to Fan Yao and Wei Jin, and his third son Nianliu (Shao Xu) was with him.
The sixteen-year-old boy took two sips of wine and his face turned slightly red, so he did not dare to drink any more and concentrated on grilling meat for his father.
Under the charcoal fire, the deer, rabbit, and wild boar meat sizzle and the aroma gradually arises.
"I didn't expect Liangzhou to be so difficult." His father's voice kept coming, and Nianliu listened while grilling meat.
"It was not easy for Duke Xiping to secure more than ten counties and prefectures, and he did a great job."
"It is not easy for your family to guard the border for generations, teach the Qiang and Hu, and train them in Chinese style."
"Now that the Central Plains is settled, you don't need to be so worried. From now on, the imperial court will support you."
Nian Liu skillfully turned the meat over one by one, and continued to prick up his ears, ready to listen, but unexpectedly his father called his name.
"Nian Liu, give Fan Changshi and Wei a chance to join the army and get meat." Shao Xun said.
"Yes." Nian Liu was a little surprised at first, but he reacted quickly. He immediately stood up, divided a few pieces of freshly roasted meat into two plates, and sent them to the table for the two of them.
"The prince doesn't need to be like this." Fan Yao said with a smile.
"I can't do it, I can't do it." Wei Jin quickly stood up and excused himself.
The two have different attitudes. One is polite and accepts it calmly, while the other is more reserved and rejects it repeatedly.
After Nian Liu delivered the meat, he wanted to leave, but Shao Xun grabbed him.
"My son, the land of Xiliang is not as good as the counties and counties of the Central Plains. It has many barbarians and few Han people." Shao Xun said: "The ancestor of Pan Changshi was Pan Gong, the censor of the Han Dynasty when he became emperor. He moved to Dunhuang from Jibei and lived in a distinguished family for generations. "
"Kai Canjun was born in the Kai family of Tianshui. This family has passed down poetry and calligraphy, and is also a chivalrous and righteous person. Although it lives in a secluded area in Tianshui, it is still unfailing, and it is a big family in panic. In the former, barbarian bandits from all directions gathered in Qinzhou, and the Kai family stayed behind closed doors to protect themselves. , practice the song. As soon as Master Wang arrives, he opens the door to receive food."
"To manage the land of Longyou and Hexi, you have to rely on your peers. Why don't you, my son, be polite?"
Nianliu was quite obedient. He would do whatever his father said, so he bowed deeply and said: "The affairs of the country depend on the princes."
Now even Fan Yao stood up and bowed in return.
After returning the gift, they looked at each other and then looked away, remaining silent.
Shao Xun stood up and poured wine for the two of them himself.
Fan Yao and Wei Jin were numb. As soon as they sat down, they stood up again and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty, you are going to kill me."
"This is not a matter of fairness, but a sign of respect for the famous man who defended Helong alone." Shao Xun waved his hand and said: "At the time of the revolution in the world, war smoke was everywhere, barbarians were raging, and then Fan, Wei, You, Qu, Han, The Yan, Ma, Suo, Yin, Guo, Beigong and other clans assisted Ming Gong and made great contributions to ensuring peace. "
"Now that I am doing something, I can also get help from all the public, so don't refuse."
After that, he filled up the wine for the two of them, and then filled up the wine for Bei Gongchun. Then he returned to his seat, picked up the wine bowl, looked at everyone, and said: "When I see people coming from Hexi, I know the beacon fire of the Han family." Still here, I am so happy that I can congratulate you for this.”
After that, drink it all in one gulp.
The generals listened for a long time, but they didn't think that the Helong group was very powerful, but King Liang had already mentioned this, so he drank it all to save his face.
After finishing half a bowl of wine, the atmosphere gradually became warmer.
Everyone ate barbecue and drank rice wine, laughing and talking.
Under the signal from Shao Xun's eyes, they came forward one by one and toasted Fan, Wei and Beigong. They said good things about free money and gave them a lot of face.
Even though the three people came with a mission, they were a little touched by such courtesy, and soon became a little drunk.
Shao Xun looked at it with a smile.
Of course there is a reason for giving enough face.
These big families, in terms of high EQ, are defending Zhongxia, while those with low EQ are local emperors and local cowards. If Shao Xun wants to rule Helong, he must use them or even rely on them.
But you can't do nothing. If you agree to whatever conditions others ask, you will be despised by the local gangsters. If the court doesn't take you seriously, the rule will not be so stable.
Therefore, he can reuse the local wealthy families in Helong and integrate them, but the Zhang family, which took the lead in separatist rule, cannot be retained, and at the end they will be forcibly moved back to the Central Plains.
Teach a lesson and demonstrate your means before you can use Hexi wealthy families like the Fan family. They are afraid in their hearts, so they will not open their mouths and make random conditions.
He told Nian Liu about this principle yesterday and made in-depth comments based on the strategy he proposed.
Educating with specific examples is teaching by words and deeds, and the effect is much better than dry reasoning.
As for why Fan, Wei, and Beigong were treated with special courtesy today, there was also a reason. He would break it into pieces later and tell Nian Liu bit by bit.
This is all on his lips. If he still doesn’t understand, then he has nothing to say. That is unworthy of cultivation!
"Sanlang." As he was drinking heavily, Shao Xun sat next to Bei Gongchun and said: "Now the Central Plains has been leveled, but there are still wars in all directions, and we have not yet accomplished all our efforts. I will leave the post of General Xizhonglang to you, come quickly Help me, don’t refuse. I can write to your family, and Zhang Gongting (Zhang Jun) will definitely not refuse.”
"Your Majesty, I..." Bei Gongchun was extremely confused.
"They are all serving the country, how can we distinguish between them?" Shao Xun said: "Brothers Yang Nandi and Yang Jiantou are lawless. I really hate the thieves in Yinping who surrendered and rebelled again. Sanlang can destroy them for me, so , why should I cherish MG?”
Bei Gongchun's mind was in a mess, sometimes "Liangzhou", sometimes "imperial court", sometimes "Xi Ping Gong", sometimes "Liang Wang", sometimes "Liangzhou is a corner of peace", and sometimes "Daliang" The country is about to be founded"...
All kinds of thoughts were mixed together, almost making him confused.
"Sanlang!" Shao Xun patted his shoulder and called softly.
Beigong Chun was in a mess, his drunkenness was rising again, and he was even more confused. When he heard Shao Xun calling, he raised his head and looked at him. For some reason, he subconsciously said two words: "Your Majesty?"
Shao Xun was stunned.
Damn it! Is your change too fast?
But he reacted immediately, laughed loudly and said: "You are drunk."
Bei Gongchun knew that he had made a mistake, his face turned red, and he just kept drinking.
He really didn't know what was going on. Anyway, his mind was very confused, so these two words popped out.
Fan Hao and Wei Jin saw this and looked at Bei Gongchun with strange eyes, secretly wondering whether he made a drunken gaffe or whether he had sincerely surrendered.
However, it doesn't seem surprising that he took refuge in the past.
Beigong has always been a powerful right-hand man in Liangzhou and has a large number of followers. He has not publicly rebelled, so it may not be possible to do anything to him.
It's just that there is a lot of sighing in my heart.
Who doesn’t like titles and official positions?
Kitamiya Junichi is a martial artist who can actually become Nishizakaro Shogun. Who wouldn't envy you if you achieve a little merit and are awarded a title?
The King of Liang once again had a friendship with him when they fought together in battle, and he still remembers him, so he offered words to persuade him to stay, and his love was sincere. It was really the blessing of Beigong Chun, and the blessing of the Beigong family.
I remember that in the Han Dynasty, I was still a rebel traitor, but now I am about to become a new founding noble. It is obvious that my circumstances are bizarre.
At the same time, it can also be seen from the side that King Liang is a kind man, emphasizing affection and justice, and being generous. It is not easy for such qualities to appear in the emperor.
If Kitamiya Jun can become a Nishizhonglang general, then the Soclan will inevitably rise, right?
The late Suo Jingke, one of the "Five Dragons of Dunhuang", was related by marriage to the Liang family and the Huangfu family, so it was not difficult for them to hook up.
Who is Liang Fen? Minister of the Ministry of Personnel of Liang State.
After the founding of the Liang Dynasty, it was logical that he would become the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel of the new dynasty, or even the Minister of Order.
He hooked his fingers, could Soxh resist?
Alas, it’s not that they can’t see through King Liang’s methods.
He pulled Bei Gongchun out to set an example, and he was given a high-ranking official and generous salary, making others envious.
Of course, there are also those who are not envious and are determined to separatist power, but King Liang still has the last resort, which is to divide and disintegrate.
If there is no internal unity and half-heartedness, why fight?
Fan Hao and Wei Jin were a little jealous and worried for a moment, and their moods were very complicated...
After the banquet, Shao Xun led everyone to stay overnight in Jingu Garden.
In the meantime, he found an opportunity to review today's events with Nian Liu and explain them in detail.
Finally, he looked at the third son and said: "In a few days, you will go to Yecheng and take charge of Sangziyuan. You are also sixteen years old. My family is thin and the clan is not strong. You have no right to hang around at home." . At this age, as a father, I have already gone into battle to protect the East China Sea - well, my grandfather has become famous for a while now."
"Your mother-in-law already knows about this. You have been filial to her in the past few days, and then you can take office. Take care of a garden, and then my father can rest assured that you can take charge of a county or even a county."
"I know." Nian Liu responded obediently.
At the same time, I was a little confused. What would happen if my father just said that he was sixteen? Protect the King of East China Sea?
