Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty
Chapter 624 How many things can be messed up
Guo Shao had already rushed to the front line with his men on horseback, and settled in Shi Yanchao's big tent.
He sat on a rough wooden stool with a buttocks, looking at a human head in front of him. The blood on the face of this head has solidified, its eyes are wide open, it is still lifelike after death, it does not look sluggish at all, even its beard is stiff.
"Crime will wait for ten thousand deaths!" A group of Yunzhou generals below kowtowed and shouted.
Wang Pu stood up and bowed: "Li Yun is a traitor, and he is guilty of rebellion! Your Majesty will send troops, and wherever the soldiers arrive, the chaos will be quelled in one day! Your Majesty is wise and mighty!"
The two rows of civil and military personnel on the left and right immediately shouted: "Your Majesty is wise and mighty!"
Everyone shouted together, the momentum was very powerful. All the traitors bowed their heads, almost lying on the ground.
Wang Pu loudly said again in public: "It is because of these rebellious officials and traitors who are disregarding righteousness and the overall situation and making waves in the rear, that our imperial army of the Great Zhou Dynasty cannot fully resist the foreign invaders. Just imagine, the imperial army is fighting hard in the front, and the rear is stabbed by one of their own. Fortunately, your majesty is wise. This time, the swift and thunderous suppression of the rebellion will scare those with ulterior motives!"
Zuo You hastily echoed, "If it wasn't for someone in the country making waves, how could the Great Zhou army have any concerns and retreat in a hurry?"
The rebel generals in Yunzhou were frightened by the righteous words, and begged for mercy one after another, "The sinners are waiting for Li Yun's prestige..." "The sinners are waiting for ten thousand deaths..." "Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
Guo Shao can kill them now, there is no problem at all, the power of life and death is a kind of imperial power. But he can also forgive them with a single sentence, which is also power.
Guo Shao was still angry when he thought of the scene where the officials he personally sent were chopped off and came back with official papers in their heads. If you follow your own ideas, it's like cutting off these rebels to vent your anger.
However, reason told him that killing them indiscriminately would only have disadvantages but not benefits. First of all, these people will no longer have hidden dangers after Li Yun's death, and secondly, it will damage his reputation of benevolence... The civil | war is not over yet, and he doesn't want to spend too much effort.
If one or two things are messed up, there may not be any serious consequences, but if too many things are done wrong, quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes... The teacher in the previous life taught him.
Guo Shao picked up the cloth next to him and covered his head. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone bowed to face him. He said: "Li Yun is a good general."
There was a sudden silence in the big tent, obviously surprised by the emperor's words.
Guo Shao thought: If Li Yun is a bad opponent, why should I show off my power by defeating him?
He continued: "When Li Yun was in Hedong, the generals of the Zhaoyi Army bravely killed the enemy and guarded the gate of the Great Zhou Kingdom. They were all warriors. In this battle of Yunzhou, he took the initiative to attack the forward of the Forbidden Army, and he is also the best choice for judging the situation of the battle. I said he is a good general, and I am not exaggerating. It's a pity..."
Guo Shao let out a long sigh: "He doesn't understand the righteousness, the general situation, and he has a great loss, so that the merits of the whole life are ruined! When I ascended the throne, he was regarded as the king's father, and today he betrayed, which is disloyal. For. The way of heaven is soup soup, those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish!"
All the ministers seconded their proposals one after another.
Guo Shao said again: "The current imperial court is using people, and Li Yun has brought the soldiers of the Zhaoyi Army into injustice for his own selfishness... I am extremely sorry!" He said with a regretful and uncomfortable expression.
All sins will be regretted.
Guo Shaodao: "The military generals and civil servants of the Zhaoyi Army temporarily resigned to accept the review of the court. They were coerced into participants and punished slightly; they encouraged rebellion and were punished according to the law. Those who beheaded the leader of the bandit because of righteousness reduced the casualties of innocent soldiers and civilians. They must be rewarded according to their merits...Ordinary soldiers are innocent."
Wang Pu and others clasped their fists after hearing this and said: "The ministers and others receive the order."
All the sinners hurriedly worshiped: "Heaven's grace is mighty, I'm waiting to thank you!"
... Guo Shao didn't bother about the aftermath of Yunzhou. The Qianying Military Mansion in Youzhou hadn't been disbanded yet. There were a large number of officials and they were by the emperor's side. They had great power and could handle specific things well.
Now Guo Shao often talks about benevolence and righteousness in front of people, which was unimaginable before, because he is not a person who likes to flaunt morality. People have light and dark sides... Many people have the same nature, how many people in the world are really so noble? Even Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty did many unexplainable things.
However, there is an order of rules that most of the world would like to recognize. Guo Shao understands that the reason why imperial power is so powerful is because many people are willing to recognize it. If you break the rules and make too many people unwilling to recognize it, you will lose authority and power will gradually become ineffective.
He sat under the lamp, pondering these abstract things.
At this moment, Wang Pu, Li Chuyun, and Zuo You entered the account to pay a visit.
There were almost no furnishings in this tent, only Guo Shao had a place to sit, and several ministers had to stand.
Wang Pudao: "The person who can be sure that Li Yun has contacted is Yang Ye, who is now in Tokyo. If Yang Ye hadn't taken the initiative to report, Li Yun's rebellion might not have been leaked so quickly. The second is Zhe Dejian, the envoy of the Jingnan Army. There is no news about Zhe Dejian."
Guo Shao glanced at Li Chuyun, and suddenly remembered a small matter. Back then, because of Li Chuyun's daughter, Guo Shao and Zhe Deliang's cousin Zhe Deliang had a grudge.
Li Chuyun bowed and stood there, looking very silent. During the battle in Youzhou, Li Chuyun lost the initiative. Guo Shao never blamed him, but maybe he was also worried.
"Zhe Dejian..." Guo Shao put his hand on his chin and made some trivial movements. Although the people present were courtiers, they were all familiar people. Now that it was dark again, Guo Shao's spirit was relatively relaxed.
He recalled that incident again... Looking back now, it was really not a big deal, at least there was no fundamental conflict of interest. However, Guo Shao was only a general back then, so Zhe Deliang wrote a letter saying that Guo Shao was wrong, which is indeed a bit grudge.
Wang Pudao: "People from the Zhe family didn't come to Tokyo to express their loyalty, and they didn't even send the memorial in time. What do you mean? Could he still think that the court didn't know?"
"It's a bit difficult to ask Zhe Dejian to come to Tokyo in person." Guo Shao said.
Wang Pu frowned. Zuo You subconsciously nodded thoughtfully, and also glanced at Li Chuyun, but said nothing. After all, the matter was related to Li Chuyun's daughter, so it's not easy to bring it up in front of others.
Guo Shao said lightly: "People in the world value human relationships, and it's not easy to trust people you don't know well, especially if you used to have a bit of a holiday."
Wang Pudao: "These Jiedu envoys who support soldiers have not cut off their military power, so they dare to negotiate terms with the court if they have some soldiers."
Guo Shao thought for a while and said: "This matter must be handled conservatively. You cannot order Zhe Dejian to go to Beijing, making him feel threatened... If Zhe Dejian is moved, Yang Ye may be renounced."\u003c
