Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 685 Infighting among military nobles

After noon, the Jurchen noble chieftains had enough to eat and drink, and started a new round of arguments. Everything seemed to have changed a bit.

Taran felt uncomfortable. In addition to the support of Sa Li, A Libu, Da Bian, and Huo Nu from the Marshal's Mansion all opposed it. His attitude made him extremely depressed.

Needless to say the masters of the Marshal's Mansion, the attitude of the guards headed by Xiao Zhonggong is also very important, these generals have a lot to do with each other.

The Jin Army is divided into two systems, the Marshal's Mansion and the Guards' Army, which are in charge of the inside and outside respectively.It is true that the Marshal's Mansion is in charge of the army, but it does not control the four auxiliary military commanders of the bodyguards. It is an elite soldier mastered by Lord Dajinlang himself.

The intention of the assassination is very obvious, do you want to discuss it?Then count the personal guards into the army. Although this army only has more than ten thousand people, it is definitely the leader of the Golden Army, the best of the best, and it seems not good not to make a statement.

The Marshal's Mansion has a clear attitude. Although everyone has their own ideas, most people firmly oppose the cession of Hebei, and the guards and the army become the key.

Xiao Zhonggong, as a bodyguard and his own army, made inspections, so naturally he firmly stood on the side of the assassination, criticizing Pu Luhu's arrogance for ignoring the master without hesitation.

Sailiben's attitude is much more ambiguous, he supports Talan from a military point of view, Zhenzhu is ambiguous, neither side can offend, and he also has a faint tendency to spend money to eliminate disasters, Xiebao is a sticky son, and he is very concerned about his father's death, although He didn't dare to openly blame He Asa, and secretly hated him, so he naturally chose to support Taran.

In this way, the Marshal's Mansion and the guards' army split into two factions. It's not a big deal in normal times, but it's fun when the two sides are at war.

The defense of Shangjing is the responsibility of the bodyguards, consisting of the Sanmeng Ancaiwu Guards and the Four Auxiliary Marshals. Xiao Zhonggong directly controls the Sanmeng Ancaiwu Guards and is responsible for the safety of the palace. Prepare a crowd of 4000 people.

However, the [-] elite soldiers and horses of the four auxiliary forces are a terrifying force in Shangjing, and they are completely in the hands of the left and right deputy inspectors. The situation seems to be unfavorable for the co-assassination.

However, Tarlan was a little hesitant. He saw Puluhu's arrogance and dissatisfied eyes. It is true that he wanted to become the Marshal of the capital, and he wanted to get huge wealth, but he definitely had no rebellious heart , at least not yet.

Prouhu's ambitions have grown to the point of being unscrupulous, which is definitely a sign of self-destruction.

He Shui didn't feel any uneasiness, with a strange smile flashing in his eyes, and he said lightly: "In this case, let's play it, and the Hebei delivery matter will be handled by Shang Shuling."

Wo Ben was shocked and exclaimed: "This matter is absolutely impossible. Wang Xiu and Li Gang in the Southern Dynasty are easy-going people. Ceding Hebei is like cutting flesh and feeding eagles. The master must never do it."

With neither joy nor sorrow on his face, he raised his voice and said: "Don't say too much, let's go down."

"Ah Lazy, the Lord has given you permission, but you are still making noise here." Pu Luhu glared at Wuben and yelled loudly, not caring about the presence of Heshi.

But where did he see that there was a stern streak in Helu's calm eyes.

However, Qin Min came back and went directly to a wine shop, and was greeted graciously by the waiter. He had just entered the inner room and then walked into the backyard. The waiter quickly closed the door and stood outside with a serious face. Where is the waiter? If it is paired with a steel knife, it is clearly a capable warrior.

"Is there an imperial palace?" Qin Min saw a fat man dressed as a businessman standing in the room with a smile on his face. He curled his lips and poured out a glass of water himself.

"The Privy Council's talisman order that I just arrived is a special order for the Duke of Dutang, with Li Xianggong's countersignature on it." The fat man picked up a stick from the table and handed it to Qin Min.

Qin Min took it and saw that it was correct, opened a section very skillfully, and took out a piece of tissue paper that was circled. After examining it carefully, his face became more serious, and he said in a deep voice, "What else do you have to say?"

"Wang Xianggong specifically instructed that whether it is successful or not, the protection of others must be the first priority, and the envoy must not be put in a desperate situation." Fatty said with admiration on his face.

Qin Min nodded. Wang Xiu always emphasized that the Speedmaster is not a ranger killer, let alone a scout in the army.They are a group of night crawlers, they are invisible people, and what they inquire about is strategic intelligence, not fighting or killing.

It is true that this group of people are in danger, but they are definitely not going to die. It is the most stupid thing to die for a single intelligence report, and even lead to the destruction of the entire stronghold. The first thing a good spy does is to hide himself, and then act, otherwise everything will be avoided. talk.

The case of the princess of Xin'an led to the killing of an envoy. Fortunately, the local government believed that it was jealous, and did not reveal the secret stronghold, nor did it attract the attention of the Jurchens. He was still severely reprimanded by the Privy Council and recorded a demerit.

"By the way, Mr. He, who is responsible for the liaison, has released the knowledge of Jiangzhou affairs, and Mr. Zhongli has also released Hangzhou."

"Oh, so you changed heads again?" Qin Min didn't know much about the transfer of domestic officials. What he cared about was who would be in charge of the Speed ​​Division, and that was the key.

He Wei, Zhong Lirui and Zong Liang have been in charge of the Speed ​​Department in the Privy Council for a long time. He didn't have much idea about the establishment of the Northern Speed ​​Bureau and the Western and Southern Speed ​​Bureau. It's important, and it's definitely not something anyone can do.

Well, in fact, the Security Department of the Privy Council has always been in the hands of Wang Xiu, and she didn't give up even when she was in Hangzhou. However, as the prime minister, it is impossible for Wang Xiu to intervene in specific affairs.

"I haven't heard of this. The attitude of the two governments is very cautious, but there is quite a lot of movement on the side of the Ministry of War." The fat man seems to be not very caring with the staff, and these words are suspected of eye drops.

"Oh, Staff Commander?" Qin Min smiled disdainfully. He really didn't like the staff of Staff Commander. The Speed ​​Division is in charge of important intelligence on the enemy's country. , just to inquire about the mountains, rivers, terrain, and folk customs, and has almost no impact in Shangjing.

"My lord, if it's okay, the villain will leave first, and there is still a batch of goods that have not been processed." The fat man said with a smile. He is a spy, and he is also a successful businessman. He has a lot of business, which is related to financial issues.

"Alright, you can rest for a few days after handling the goods, and have fun." Qin Min is very tolerant to his subordinates. People who do blood work on the tip of a knife cannot tense their nerves all day long. Proper rest and fun is a must Yes, for those who are well-trained and capable, you can't be too strict.What's more, he really wanted to go out to do something, and Wang Xiu specifically ordered him to do it.

The fat man knew that Qin Min must have something to do, but he abided by his duty and did not ask.
