I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 354 The Art of Check and Balance
At this moment, Fu Maoxiu was a little surprised, but not surprised.

Saburo had been away for less than a year, and it was obviously not because he was dereliction of duty like the other chief governors in Shannan Road that he was transferred back to Beijing so soon.

It's that he has done a great job this year.

The record is too dazzling.

The battle of Songzhou alone was already the most fruitful victory won by the Great Jin Dynasty against Qingtang in a hundred years.

Qingtang Zhe lost 10,000+ troops, and a maharaja died. Dozens of tribal leaders and generals were killed and captured, or died in civil strife.

Afterwards, Songzhou quickly returned to the teacher, and in less than a month, the number of Honglian rebels who had grown to tens of thousands disappeared in Sichuan.

According to this credit, no one can speak even if he is a duke of the state.

But Fu Sanlang's problem is that he is young, too young.

If Fu Jinchuan was allowed to make great achievements and stay in Sichuan for three to five years, his prestige in Sichuan might be so high that the imperial court was worried.

It just so happened that Shannan Road was in chaos again. Fu Maoxiu's qualifications and prestige were definitely enough to impress the generals on the front line, but his existence made the imperial court feel at ease when it came to the ability to use troops.

Use Fu Maoxiu to make way for Fu Jinchuan, who is the son of man.

In terms of emotion and reason, no one can find fault with such an arrangement.

So Fu Maoxiu could only bite the bullet and take over the job of Generalissimo of the Shannan Road March.

This is also the second time he has led the army as the Generalissimo. The last time was the rebellion in Hebei Dao Shamen the year before last. As the Marshal, he stabilized Hebei in a few months.

But this time Shannan Road is much more complicated than the situation in Hebei Road at that time.

The most important thing has been decided, and the rest is easy to talk about. Zhao Lingyuan directly asked Fu Maoxiu to recommend candidates for the two capitals in Shannan.

Fu Maoxiu didn't start recommending immediately, but said that it still needs to be considered.

After Zhao Lingyuan agreed, this small-scale discussion was over, and Fu and Li respectively resigned.

Walking with Li Fuzhi in the corridor of the palace, Fu Maoxiu was too preoccupied and had no interest in talking, but Li Fuzhi took the initiative to say: "Congratulations to the Duke of England for being in command again. It is very rare for a warrior in this dynasty to be in command twice. up"

"Thank you, Mr. Li, but this joy is not very happy. The terrain of Shannan Road is complicated and the people are chaotic. It is not so easy to wipe out the red lotus rebels."

Fu Maoxiu said with a slight sigh.

Li Fuzhi smiled and said: "With the ability of the Duke of the state, he only needs to be in the middle to dispatch and coordinate the ministries, and the rebel bandits will be given the leadership, and the place will be stable."

Hearing these words, Fu Maoxiu responded with a smile: "So, thank you Li Xiangji."

The two talked and laughed all the way to the palace gate, and then left separately.

But he said that the emperor Zhao Lingyuan and his son naturally had a conversation after Fu and Li left.

"Aye, my son thinks that Sanlang should not move lightly when he is in Shuzhong. This is the critical moment when Sanlang is cleaning up the salt and iron tax and land tax in Shuzhong. If you change someone, these things may not be able to be done smoothly. .Besides, the middle of Sichuan has just settled down, leaving Sanlang stationed for a while can make people feel at ease."

After Zhao Lingyuan heard his son's words, he shook his head and said, "What you said is also reasonable. It's not that I haven't thought about these concerns, but how can everything be perfect? ​​This battle is over, what can Sanlang do in Sichuan?" The effect will not be greater than that of his father in Shannan Road. Besides, this sword is too sharp, so it should be put into the sheath, otherwise the sword can hurt the enemy as well as himself. However, although Sanlang returned to Beijing, his Jiedu Let him still take the position of Shi, I believe it can deter some young people."

Zhao Yuantan didn't bother with the things that had been agreed upon, but asked, "But Shu Wangshu and Jiedu Deputy Envoy Yan Ting are both on their way to Beijing. If Sanlang is also going to Beijing here, there needs to be someone in Shu."

"Well, the King of Shu and Yan Ting, I don't intend to let them go back to Shuzhong. If Sanlang wants to go back to Beijing, Shuzhong really needs important ministers to sit in charge of Dalang, who can you choose?"

After Zhao Yuantan thought about it, he said, "My son thinks that the third brother can go to Sichuan."

"You mean to let Yuan Yang go to Shuzhong?"

The king of Qi, Zhao Yuanzhang, was transferred back from the south of the Yangtze River in the next year. At present, because the princess of Qi just gave birth, she has not been appointed, so she is at home.

Zhao Yuanzhang is a prince who rarely learns about soldiers, and he also made a lot of military exploits when King Wu rebelled.

If there is anyone among the princes who still threatens the status of the prince Zhao Yuantan, it must be Qi Wang Zhao Yuanzhang.

So Zhao Lingyuan was a little surprised by the prince's recommendation, but he was still a little happy in his heart.

After all, as fathers, most of them would like to see their sons brothers and sisters respectful.

"Yuan Li personally led the army when he quelled the Wu Ni Rebellion, and he was the deputy general of Saburo at that time. My son thought that after Yan Ting left his post, he might as well let him go to the south of the Yangtze River to serve as the governor of Runzhou. And Yuan Li just happened to take over Yan Ting's position as Jiannan Jiedu's deputy envoy, so that all the staff and Chang Shi of the Jiefu can stay in their posts."

After hearing the prince's arrangement, Zhao Lingyuan laughed.

"You have a good plan. Hahahaha, not bad."

Zhao Yuantan didn't feel embarrassed when his side was punctured, he still had a calm face.

Let Qi Wang Zhao Yuanzhang go to Shuzhong to serve as Jiedu's deputy envoy, but the chief history and aides of the Jiefu all stay in office. That is to say, Zhao Yuanzhang has no place to place his cronies when he goes to Shuzhong. This ensures that the East Palace can still pass through Fu Jinchuan The long history and staff left behind indirectly control the military and government in central Shu.

Naturally, Zhao Lingyuan couldn't hide these things, so after he figured this out, he said that Zhao Yuantan had a good plan.

And he obviously didn't object to it, nor did he resent the prince's intentions.

People should both use it and guard against it.This is especially true for brothers who are princes and princes.

Therefore, he is actually very satisfied with the prince's arrangement, especially now that except for a small group of rogues who have not been eliminated in the middle of Shu, they have generally settled down.

Although Zhao Yuantan's calculation was good, Zhao Lingyuan did not immediately nod in response, but expressed his plan.

"However, although your calculations are good, I also have some arrangements for the third child here."

"That's my son's trespass"

"You don't need to rush over. My arrangement may not be correct, but there are some things that need to be prepared. I have already thought about it, let the British Duke take charge of the war in Shannan Road, and let the third child be the British Duke's deputy. For the deputy marshal. Do you understand?"

"My son understands."

Let Qi Wang Zhao Yuanzhang be the deputy marshal, the meaning of experience and cultivation is obvious, but there are two meanings.

The first is checks and balances.

The second is checks and balances.

One is the present, and the other is the future.
