Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry
Chapter 133 Complement each other
After wandering around in Taifu for a long time, Li Tai found that his popularity in Taifu was really so-so.
He visited several people one after another, and despite being accommodating, everyone greeted him with a smile. But when he talked about recruiting staff, most of the people started laughing and refused to talk about the actual situation, and they didn't pay much attention to it.
In the end, only an old colleague, Pei Han, recommended a cousin of his to Li Tai, which saved Li Tai from working in vain.
This result naturally made Li Tai a little unacceptable. Are everyone so upright and upright? Am I the only one who wants to grant private power to the public?
With this doubt, Li Tai returned to Gao Zhong's secret house in the city. As soon as he sat down, a servant came to announce Li Mu's visit outside the door.
Is this old boy still unwilling to give up?
Because of the unpleasantness of their last meeting, Li Tai was naturally wary of Li Mu's visit, but now that he was at home, there was nothing to be afraid of.
After pondering for a while, he asked his servants to invite Li Mu in, and he stood outside the hall to greet him.
Without turning around, Li Mu strode into the court. Besides him, there was another burly middle-aged man walking with him. This middle-aged man is half a size bigger than Li Mu, and his robes are stretched out by muscles. He looks like a brave general at first glance.
"This is Duke Enyang and Li Yitong, the general of chariots and cavalry. He knows that I am visiting Mr. Lang today, so he comes with me."
When they met again, Li Mu was not as overbearing as before. After greeting each other, he smiled and introduced the formidable fellow traveler to Li Tai.
"It turns out to be Mr. Enyang. Please forgive me for my blindness and disrespect!"
After Li Tai heard about the other party's official title, he quickly bowed and saluted, while he was thinking about the precise identity of this person.
"This is not the first time that .
Li Yitong was not arrogant. He nodded and said to Li Tai: "I heard before that Li Lang you treated the heirs of the late grand master so favorably. Those of us who were former disciples also feel deeply about Li Lang's righteousness. I heard that Duke Wu'an had an affair with Li Lang. Therefore, I shamelessly asked him to introduce me to him."
He Ba Jingwei extorted 100,000 pieces of silk from Li Tai. Although it is not known to everyone, it is not a secret. Most people only pay attention to the alarming number, but few people are interested in asking in detail how the problem was solved and whether it was paid or not.
When Li Tai heard this, he finally remembered the identity of the other party. It turned out that this person's name was Li He. He was originally a rich chieftain from Xiazhou. He was once appointed as the governor of the tent by He Bayue, and later he followed Yuwentai.
Among Yuwentai's direct subordinates, there is a group of people who are quite special, that is, the powerful chiefs and staff he recruited in Xiazhou when he served as the governor of Xiazhou under He Batayue.
At the end of the Northern Wei Dynasty, after Er Zhurong was killed, Gao Huan rose to power in Hebei and established Emperor Xiaowu in Luoyang. At that time, He Bayue of Kansai appointed Yu Wentai as the governor of Xiazhou to expand his power in order to check and balance Hou Mo Chen Yue from the same region and Gao Huan from outside.
Xiazhou was once the territory of Helian Huxia. It was rich in water and grass and was an important horse herding land west of the Yellow River. After the Northern Wei Dynasty destroyed the Xia Dynasty, in order to prevent its resurgence, some eastern Xianbei people were relocated here, including some people from the Yuwen Department.
At the end of the Northern Wei Dynasty, six towns revolted, and Xiazhou was inevitably affected. At that time, the Yuwen Department already had considerable power in Xiazhou, and the representative figure among them was Yu Wengui. Yu Wensheng, a native of Woye Town who reported Zhao Gui's rebellion in the early Northern Zhou Dynasty, also led his troops to move to Xiazhou during this period.
Yu Wentai was able to stand out among the generals of He Batayue and serve as the governor of Xiazhou. In addition to his outstanding talents, it is also related to this part of his historical origin. Not long after he came to Xiazhou, he recovered many nomadic tribes such as Xianbei Yuzhong, Fei Youtou and so on.
Yuwengui, who was born in Xiazhou, had already held an official position in the Northern Wei Dynasty at that time, but after following Xiaowu to move westward, he quickly chose to attach himself to Yuwentai, which shows Yuwentai's appeal among these powerful people in Xiazhou. Although the emperor was noble, Daxingtai treated him as a relative of the same clan.
The Xiazhou tribe has also become an important force under Yuwentai's command, making a great contribution to him defeating Hou Mo Chen Yue and stabilizing the situation in Kansai.
Li He is one of the powerful men in Xiazhou. Although he was initially appointed by He Bayue, under the call of Xiangyi, he is now also an important member of Xiazhou's forces. Although the Xiazhou group is not known for its power, it has always been cultivated by Yu Wentai as his henchmen.
Li He said that he heard that Li Tai was so loyal and wanted to see him. Naturally, Li Tai didn't believe this nonsense. But after taking a look at Li Mu next to him, he realized, are you planning to form a group to put pressure on your relatives?
It's not that he is suffering from delusions of persecution. He thinks that his family's reputation is so valuable that a man named Li is greedy for it, and Li Hu is not interested in it at all. In fact, since there is a precedent of Li Mu in front of us, and Li He comes with him, it is inevitable that he will subconsciously think of this.
He was muttering in his heart, but naturally he would not show it on his face. He invited the two of them into the hall and sat down at separate tables.
This time when they met, Li Mu's attitude was much better. He was no longer as aggressive as before. After sitting down, he smiled and said: "Mr. Lang, you have been promoted to a new position. The kindness you have received from Daxingtai is really enviable."
"You are a latecomer, how dare you praise me in front of two great ministers? I will work hard and do my best, hoping that I can live up to my gratitude!"
Li Tai also laughed and said that although his promotion speed was amazing, he really had nothing to be proud of in front of these two people.
Li Muze laughed again and said: "The gentleman is too modest. Daxingtai is dedicated to managing Luoshui. The mediocre people in the world only care about things being complicated and messy, and don't care about the noble. But those who really know how to manage things understand that they have a plowing and pastoral heart. The pulse is given to the capable minister! It is carried by one water and deeply used by the country. The prince will make great achievements here, which is no less than killing stubborn thieves!"
This is true. Luoshui ranks among the best in the entire Kansai water vein network, both in terms of river length and the area it flows through.
The upstream plateau and hilly area is an important grazing area, and there are many Feiyatou tribesmen. Feiyatou is a collective name for the low-income herdsmen households in Xianbei in the Northern Wei Dynasty. With the development of the times, many powerful chiefs emerged among the untouchables in Feiyatou.
The middle and lower reaches of Luoshui River enter the Guanzhong Plain and are the most important farming areas in Kansai outside the Wei River Basin and Jing River Basin. It is not an exaggeration to say that Li Mu calls it the heart of farming and animal husbandry.
Li Mu's visit this time was not just for flattery.
After some greetings, he smiled again and said: "As you take on the new responsibilities, it is inevitable to feel hesitant. I heard that Lang Jun visited many virtuous colleagues in Taiwan today, and he is loyal to his service. If the candidates can be suitable for the matter, they will get twice the result with half the effort, otherwise , even if you have clever plans, you will inevitably encounter difficulties. "
"That's true. Did Mr. Wu An teach me?"
After hearing this, Li Tai nodded and looked at Li Mu for advice.
"If your husband is only interested in cultivating the lower reaches, I would not dare to give you any advice. But if you want good governance in the whole region, there is someone here who can recommend you to relieve your worries!"
After Li Mu said this, he smiled and looked at Li He sitting at the other table.
Li He was no longer silent at this moment. After hearing Li Mu's words, he waved his hands and said with a smile: "Gong Wu'an is overly praised. Even Daxingtai praised Li Lang's talents. What strategies do I dare to boast about?" To relieve worries? It's just that the subordinates happened to be in charge of this matter. When they heard that Li Lang was in need of envoys, they wanted to take the liberty of recommending them for use. Whether they should be adopted or not is still in Li Lang's mind. "
After hearing the words, Li Tai quickly stood up and bowed to Li Hechang: "In front of the public, who is the first to do things such as this, how can I boast of my poor wisdom! If you can give me some advice to a confused person, I would be very grateful!"
Seeing Li Tai being so polite, Li He smiled more kindly, and said again: "The upper reaches of Luoshui River lead to all the states. In addition to the convenience of water and grass herding horses, there is also the benefit of the salt ponds in Xi'an..."
Li Tai's previous understanding of the Luoshui River Basin was mainly concentrated in the farming areas in the middle and lower reaches, but he didn't know much about the Loess Plateau in the upper reaches.
After hearing Li He's explanation at this time, he realized that the upper reaches of Luoshui were equally important to the Kansai regime. In addition to providing war horses and various livestock products, the upper reaches of Luoshui River are not far from important salt-producing areas in Kansai and are important salt production and salt transportation channels.
Wuyuan, the seat of Xi'an Prefecture, has many salt ponds and wells. It was once a more important salt production area than the Hedong War Zone. Because the territory is rich in resources, there are constant struggles.
In the early years of the unification, Yuwentai introduced many Xiazhou armed forces into the heart of Guanzhong, so that the northern border defense force was insufficient, Rouran invaded from time to time, and Jihu, who was active in the border, was also a destabilizing factor.
In the seventh year of Datong, Liu Pingfu, the leader of Jihu, the governor of Dongxia Prefecture appointed by Yu Wentai, rebelled and was put down by Yu Jin. Later, the imperial court sent Xiazhou powerful chief Yu Wengui to serve as the governor of Xiazhou, hoping to use his prestige to win over the barbarians there, but the effect was still not good.
After the Battle of Mangshan, the Western Wei Dynasty's financial and military strength were not enough to support a large number of troops stationed in Xiazhou, so Beihuazhou, where several Huisi were stationed, became the first line of deterrence against these unstable factors in the north.
Last year, the imperial court added several defense cities in the upper reaches of Luoshui River and stationed troops there, mainly to guard the salt road connecting Xi'an Prefecture. The troops stationed here included many of Li He's Xiazhou tribes.
Therefore, if Li Tai only organizes the lower and lower reaches of Luoshui River, he does not need to pay too much attention to Li He. But if we want to manage the upper reaches of Luoshui River together, we must cooperate with this Xiazhou military leader.
The reason why Li Tai valued the potential of the Luoshui River Basin was that the Luoshui River was both arable and grazing, and of course it was impossible to abandon the upper reaches. At this time, Li He took the initiative to come to seek cooperation. Of course, he had no reason to refuse. When he heard that Li He recommended his nephew to serve as Li Tai's staff, he directly agreed.
"When the former met, he spoke arrogantly. When I returned home and reflected on myself, I felt deeply ashamed! Mutual love and mutual understanding are not something that can be achieved in a hurry, but being able to help each other in things and prosper together in the world is also a good deed that benefits each other!"
Seeing that Li Tai and Li He had a pleasant discussion, Li Mu also expressed his attitude at the table, his attitude was much more sincere than before.
