Chapter 574 Building Minghou Mansion

"Nanyang has stabilized!" Xi Zhicai stared at the melody, pondered for a while, and said, "Yuan Shu is so eloquent, it's rare!"

"He is not easy to talk, he is just a choice!"

Mujing sneered: "For such an arrogant person like him, I'm just a grasshopper after autumn, nothing worth mentioning. Compared with his great career, I'm also dust. There's no need for him to fight me to the death at this time. After all, they The goal is grand!"

"Target?"

Xi Zhicai's eyes shot out a stern light: "Yangzhou?"

"Not just Yangzhou, but the whole south!"

Mu Jing said: "Once Yuzhou is stabilized, he will still be sitting on Runan and Nanyang, and his financial resources, population, and army will be extremely prosperous, and no one in the world can compare. The border between Jiangxia and Runan!"

It is not difficult to inquire about the news that Yuan Shu has stored the Jiangdong Army in the northern part of Jiangxia. This idea shows Yuan Shu's intention.

"He has a big appetite. If he hits Jingzhou with one hand and Yangzhou with the other, won't he be afraid of choking to death?" Xi Zhicai said disdainfully. In his heart, Yuan Shu is a person with great ambition and talent. It is impossible for the son of the Yuan family to win the two counties of Nanyang and Runan as the foundation at the beginning of the game. The reputation of the Yuan family is his greatest background. Wherever Yuan Jun goes, there are few obstacles, and most of them are county magistrates and county lieutenants. They are all scholars, and there are as many people who look up to the Yuan family as the fourth generation and the third father.

But Yuan's background also has its limits, and it can't suppress the ambitions of some people at all. Unless Yuan Shu has the absolute ability to stabilize the minds of so many princes in so many places and take them back for his own use, he will capsize sooner or later.

"Is there any record of the Jiangdong Army's attack on Jiangxia last year?" Mu Jing asked suddenly.

He realized a big problem.

After all, a little butterfly flapped its lovely wings and turned the history of this era to a point where he was no longer familiar with it.

"There are not many records, they should all be here!"

Xi Zhicai stood up, rummaged through the bookshelf on the left, searched, found a dossier, and handed it to Mu Jing: "It should have been sent by Jing Wusi. Except for somersaults, the rest of the parties are developing well!"

Speaking of Jing Wusi, Xi Zhicai had a worry in his heart: "My lord, will Tan Zong be in danger? He hasn't sent any news for a long time. Even Jing Wusi's channel can't find anyone, it shouldn't be!"

Tan Zong, who was in charge of the Jingwu Division, had a sudden attack on the champion by the soldiers of Nanyang County, causing Nanxiang to be in danger. Jingwu Division had a great dereliction of duty, so Mujing recalled Tan Zong from Yizhou and asked him to investigate the situation in Nanyang.

But he never came back, and there was no news at all, which was really worrying.

"Tan Zong is actually the best at one thing, saving his life in a chaotic battlefield. He has nine lives, and the arrows avoid him. His problem is not serious. If there is a problem, it may be the problem of the entire Jingwu Division. Already!"

Mu Jing flipped through the file in his hand, and while reading it, he said: "There is indeed a big problem in Nanyang, and it should be related to Jingping Trading Company. When the Jingwu Division was established, it relied on Jingping Trading Company as a cover. How much has been said, and I can’t tell clearly. If it is said that Jing Wusi’s dereliction of duty in Nanyang has nothing to do with Jingping Commercial Bank, I don’t believe it, but I don’t care about it for the time being. , but I believe Tan Zong can handle it!"

After finishing speaking, he almost finished reading these files. There are not many files, and there are not many recorded news. He only recorded some news about the battle of Jiangdong Army crossing the river and attacking Jiangxia last year.

If his memory is correct, Sun Jian should have died in this battle.

But not now.

Sun Jian's attack on Jiangxia did not go well, he was blocked by Huang Zu's army, but he was not killed by an arrow, and the Jiangdong army developed rapidly, it seems that many Jiangdong forces secretly supported Sun Jian, but Sun Jian was sitting on a powerful army and using The battle with Jingzhou Jiangxia tempered soldiers and horses.

"Zhicai, do you think that if Yuan Shu's attack on Jiujiang fails, will he send Jiangdong's army into Yangzhou?"

Mu Jing suddenly asked.

"It's possible!"

Xi Zhicai pondered for a while before answering Mu Jing's words firmly: "But if I were Yuan Shu, I wouldn't do this. Sun Jian is a fierce tiger in the east of the Yangtze River. Only when a fierce tiger stands on a mountain can he be tamed. When a fierce tiger returns to the mountain, he can be tamed." He is the king of beasts!"

"It's just a pity, you're not Yuan Shu!"

Mu Jing laughed and joked before continuing: "I guess Yuan Shu will!"

"why?"

"Confidence!"

"You mean, Yuan Shu is confident that he can control Sun Jian!"

"Yuan Shu is most proud of his family background. This is also the reason why he has always looked down on Yuan Shao. Sun Jian is no one. Although the Sun family has been an official for generations, he is also a descendant of a military family. After all, he is just an ordinary squire in Fuchun County. That's all!"

Mu Jing sneered: "Yuan Gonglu is the best at judging people's backgrounds. How can he look up to him if he has such a background? He will naturally become more confident. He is confident that Sun Jian will flatter him and be loyal to him. Therefore, in the event of a war Unfavorable, his main force is blocked from the Yangtze River, and he will definitely use the Jiangdong Army!"

"Yuan Shu seems to have a strong army, but I feel that he doesn't have too many elite soldiers besides the Jiangdong Army!" Xi Zhicai read a lot of news from Yuzhou and gathered them into a dossier.

"You can't underestimate it either!"

Mu Jing said: "There are still a few people under his command who need to be on guard. Ji Ling has to be careful. He is brave enough, and he is also good at leading the army. If he is matched with a qualified military advisor, he will not be good either." Deal with it!"

"Then this person has to be sent by Jing Wusi to follow up!"

Xi Zhicai drew a name on the dossier, then wrote a note, and handed it to the clerk next to him: "Send it to Jingwu Division!"

"promise!"

The civil servants took orders and left.

"You, the Sima Yafang, have recruited a lot of people recently?" Mu Jing said.

Xi Zhicai leads the Sima of the Marquis of Ming Dynasty, and the post of Sima is in charge of the army. The soldiers and horses under the Marquis of Ming Dynasty, from conscription, training, command of troops, deployment of generals, distribution of weapons, and provision of logistics, are all managed by him. It becomes a department, and it becomes a government of its own.

"You are dignified Marquis Ming, you don't care about things all day long, and Hu Kongming is still in Nanyang. I take care of so many things by myself, can I not recruit people?" Xi Zhicai said angrily.

"There are quite a few people conscripting, but the place is a bit small!"

Mu Jing ignored his words, but he didn't dare to answer them, but changed the subject with a smile.

"Speaking of places, there is one more thing that needs to be handled by you, the lord!" Xi Zhicai suddenly thought of something, and said directly.

"whats the matter?"

"Since the Minghou Mansion has obtained the imperial edict, it can live in Nanyang and command Hanzhong and Nanyang. This flag needs to be erected!" Xi Zhicai said: "To put it simply, you have to open the mansion first!"

“建府吗？”

Mu Jing thought for a while, then nodded and said, "We really need a Minghou mansion, and we must build a new one. The power cannot be underestimated. This involves a problem of face and momentum, and it must be done!"

"Have you decided where to build it?"

"I thought about it before and chose a few addresses, but now, I've changed my mind!" Mu Jing said, "I have a good address!"

"Where!"

"Outside the city!"

"What?" Xi Zhicai frowned, "Why?"

After the establishment of the mansion, it must be the administrative center of the Minghou Mansion. Government orders are issued for it, and military orders are also issued for it. You should look for a safe place. There is no guarantee outside the city.

"Because I'm going to tell everyone!"

Mu Jing said in a deep voice: "The Minghou Mansion does not need a city wall!"

"What if soldiers and horses come in?"

Xi Zhicai was taken aback, but rushed to act because of Mujing Kanto's pride and ambition, but he was still worried.

"If you've reached that point, then fight and fight with all your might. I'd rather die outside the city than stay in the city!"

Mu Jing said indifferently: "As the saying goes, people live in sorrow and die in peace. The city is too peaceful, and I can't adapt to it. Only outside the city can I always remember that this world is too dangerous. I can't enjoy it yet, I need to work hard to grow!"
