Li Bao is a loyal friend.
He addressed his generals as brothers.
I can't bear to be too harsh on many small things.
They felt that as long as the people weren't disturbed, it was fine.
Prohibitions on things like drinking and gambling
This is quite common among Li Baojun.
Many times, we turn a blind eye.
Moreover, Li Bao only said he wouldn't harass the people.
It didn't say that harassing officials was forbidden.
Chapter 1638 Urging the Emperor to Advance
This led to his generals,
He often acted arrogantly and domineeringly towards local officials.
He treated the county magistrate with the same disrespect and order.
There were even cases of people attempting to assault the county magistrate in public (but being restrained by his subordinates).
Han Shizhong's troops also showed this symptom.
However, many of Han Shizhong's subordinates were of humble origins.
Unlike the arrogant and willful bandits under Li Bao's command.
Zhao Yuan suggested, "If you can't bring yourself to say no,"
"Why not stage a self-inflicted injury?"
"What kind of self-inflicted injury scheme?" Li Bao asked curiously.
Zhao Yuan said, "I suddenly went to your army camp and caught people gambling."
"Then I'll beat you with a military rod in front of everyone."
Li Bao smacked his lips and actually nodded, saying...
"Alright. After I'm done being beaten, I'll take the opportunity to strictly discipline the troops."
"Those idiots had nothing to say."
"I got hit, how could their butts not get a few hits too?"
The two finalized the details and got right to work.
Zhao Yuan chose a day to conduct a surprise inspection of the military camp.
They accurately caught several soldiers gambling.
Then, citing lax military discipline,
They arrested Li Bao and publicly flogged him with military sticks.
After Zhao Yuan left,
Li Bao cursed and swore.
He beat up all his subordinates.
The subordinates were also cursing and swearing.
Go back and deal with your respective soldiers.
The only thing that surprised Li Bao was that
His military judge was replaced by Zhao Yuan.
The newly appointed military judge is cold and inhumane.
He always has a sour face.
It seems everyone owes him hundreds of strings of cash.
Li Bao felt like he'd been tricked...
Zhang Guangdao had not yet arrived in Taiyuan.
Zhu Guoxiang had already arrived in Kaifeng.
A large quantity of grain from Sichuan also arrived at the same time.
Sichuan prefectures and counties,
Another batch of grain bonds was issued.
Moreover, the interest rates are much higher than before!
wealthy Sichuan residents were forced to accept the bonds.
Not only did they not complain,
They are actually more compliant than before.
Because Zhao Yuan occupied Kaifeng.
They captured the Song emperor.
They were convinced that the Zhu family, father and son, were about to change the dynasty.
Last year, corn and sweet potatoes were promoted throughout Sichuan.
This year's corn harvest is abundant.
The grain being transported to Tokyo now,
Half of them are newly harvested corn.
The purchase restriction policy will continue to be implemented.
We'll have to wait until after next summer's harvest.
Only then will grain controls in Kaifeng be lifted.
Restaurants in Tokyo
They've all been converted to sell tea.
Because Zhao Yuan does not issue brewing licenses.
Even if they distributed the food, there wouldn't be enough.
"Finally home."
Gao Jingshan stood at the bow of the boat.
Looking out over the walls of Tokyo.
Zhang Gen asked, "How many years has it been since you returned to Beijing?"
Gao Jingshan thought for a moment and said, "Six or seven years, I guess."
"The last time I returned to Beijing was after I stepped down as the transport judge of Lizhou Road,"
"Some money was given to Cai Jing's cronies."
Zhang Gen laughed and said, "I never give money to the treacherous party."
"It's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering the pain,"
Gao Jingshan joked,
"The Zhang family has many marriage alliances, and they have no shortage of people speaking up for them in the court."
"But I am just from a small family in Shandong,"
"How could we dare offend Cai Jing's men?"
Both of them were in a good mood.
If Zhao Yuan were to declare himself emperor
They must be the left and right prime ministers.
It was already winter.
The river near Kaifeng is about to freeze over.
As they drew closer to the city walls
Gao Jingshan asked in a low voice, "Still unable to persuade Prime Minister Zhao?"
Zhang Gen shook his head: "Prime Minister Zhao only wants to be called a king, saying that it is not convenient to call himself an emperor when the world is not yet settled."
Gao Jingshan said, "Simply declaring oneself king is not enough to win over the people."
"It will create a lot of unnecessary trouble."
Zhang Gen said, "The marshal will have to persuade him."
"As for the name of the nation, the mighty Han dynasty already existed,"
"It seems inappropriate to continue using the Han name."
Gao Jingshan asked, "It seems that Master Zhu's ancestral home is Guangnan?"
"That's a saying, but it doesn't seem to me,"
Zhang Gen guessed,
"This is likely an excuse to avoid trouble."
Gao Jingshan said, "If we consider Marshal Zhao's posting location,"
"The state could also be called Wei, Qi, Liang, or Shu."
Zhao Kuangyin established the Song Dynasty.
It was because he had served as the military governor of Songzhou.
Zhao Yuan served as prefect for several terms.
Of course, those place names can also be used.
There are plenty of choices.
Zhang Gen pondered, "The Shu Kingdom's image of being a recluse is too strong."
"The states of Wei and Liang are not good either,"
"The State of Qi is worth considering."
Neither of them took Emperor Huizong of Song seriously.
Although Zhao Ji was "a tiger dominating the southeast",
But it's just a paper tiger.
We can take it quickly by sending tens of thousands of troops.
On the contrary, it was Zhong Xiang,
They need to be given a good beating.
In the blink of an eye, we arrived in Kaifeng.
Zhao Yuan led a large number of officials and soldiers,
As people stood by the Huimin River waiting, countless others came to watch the spectacle.
The Sichuan officials were led by Zhang Gen and Gao Jingshan.
Even the commander-in-chief of the Sichuan army,
Zhao Yu, who was fighting against Zhao Yuan,
They are all in the team right now.
This member of the Song Dynasty imperial family,
