Chapter 805 Mission
Shen Hao didn't need the number plate when he went to the Yamen of the Fushi in Jingxi Town. If Jiang Cheng was free, he could go in directly. Even if Jiang Cheng had someone talking at the time, he couldn't wait long, so he could jump in the queue.
Early this morning, Shen Hao arrived at the Fushi Yamen in Jingxi Town. Along the way, everyone who knew him would politely bow to him and call him "Master Shen", and Shen Hao would smile and nod in return, but never Say more. Coupled with the evil spirit naturally exuding from him, even if he smiled, the hearts of those who greeted him would tremble, secretly thinking that the name of "evil star" is indeed well-deserved.
Of course, even in secret now, few people say the word "Shen Xixing" on their lips, and they usually shout it in their hearts.
Mr. Shen is already a fifth-rank real power thousand households at a young age, and it seems that this posture has to rise. Now there are rumors that the example of Jingxi's integration of the Black Flag Camp will be used in the Black Flag Camp in other parts of the country. body. It's just that there are still many debates about whether they should be integrated or unified.
It is common sense to maintain basic respect and awe for a promising young boss, even in the vulgar Xuan Qingwei.
He came early, as soon as Jiang Cheng arrived, the adjutant who had been staring at him hurriedly notified Shen Hao to go over.
"My lord, my subordinates!" Shen Hao bowed politely, saw Jiang Cheng just came in, took two steps quickly, picked up the teacup on Jiang Cheng's table, and went to make tea by the side, and snatched the porter's errand.
Jiang Cheng smiled and didn't speak, sat on the chair and waited for Shen Hao to bring tea before he said with a smile: "I came so early, do you think it's a good thing to find you today?"
Shen Hao has a thick skin, and he wouldn't feel embarrassed to be told by Jiang Cheng, but he just smiled, and then came to acquiesce.
Jiang Cheng laughed loudly, pointed at Shen Hao, with an expression of "I knew the boy would think so", and then said: "The war in the south is about to end, but it's not so soon. Besides, you boy The Black Flag Camp in Jingxi, which has just been integrated, has just begun the strategy of killing evil in your hands, right? Before it is effective, you will not be promoted immediately even if you count the credits.
Breaking the rules also requires a necessary time process, and there is no rush. And according to the people of Pang Da, wait a little longer, and the news will be fermented outside, and see the reactions from all over the world. This will only benefit and not harm your formal integration later. "
What Jiang Cheng said were all facts, and it also made Shen Hao understand that the idea of integrating all the black flag battalions in the country and the court has not changed, but the time will not be so fast.
If so, why are you looking for them?
I heard Jiang Cheng say: "Although it has nothing to do with your promotion in the future, it has a lot to do with your next errand." Jiang Cheng opened a hidden compartment on the table as he spoke, and covered his face. The array opened and enveloped the entire public house.
Seeing this, Shen Hao was a little surprised. Was this the first time he had been so cautious when he met Jiang Cheng when discussing matters? Every time he did this, it meant that there was a big task to be handed over.
Sure enough, I heard Jiang Cheng say: "The battle in the south is about to enter its final stage, and the barbarians are likely to be fragmented after the decisive battle in Sangbiqiu, and it is difficult to form an effective resistance. According to previous experience, the barbarians are likely to be scattered and dormant." , It will be very difficult to clean up and suppress at that time, and I don't know how long it will take to completely clean up.
I don’t know if you have calculated the accounts here, but the Ministry of War has calculated an account. Simply put, it would take five times the military salary that has been spent today, or even more, to completely wipe out the barbarians. If this account reaches the Ministry of Accounts, Bai Changqing can block the door and scold her.
The Ministry of War is a routine matter, and it was given to Fang Lue, and then a calculation was made, and finally sent to His Majesty. But His Majesty didn't look at it at all. Now he spends all day relaxing in the imperial garden, drinking and watching dances for entertainment. He no longer asks about the affairs of the court, but all the ministries make up their own minds about small matters, or let the crown prince make up their minds.
So this strategy was in the hands of the Crown Prince, and was rejected by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It is believed that it will be too costly and time-consuming to completely wipe out the barbarians, and that a little carelessness may sink the national power of the old Jing Dynasty. It is enough to beat the barbarians to death. There is no need to continue to take risks, and there is no need to pass this risk on to the ordinary people in the country.
But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also understands that the problem of the barbarians cannot be ignored just by fighting once. The result of letting them grow will be repeated wars, which will be fought every few tens or hundreds of years. It is really troublesome and not worthwhile. "
Not worth it? This is not Jiang Cheng's idiomatic expression. Shen Hao guessed that it should be the original words of the crown prince Yang Shu, and Jiang Cheng is now paraphrasing. But this is very in line with the style of the crown prince Yang Shu. He started his business with merchants, so "whether it is worthwhile" must be the first consideration.
Jiang Cheng went on to say: "The strategy used by Your Majesty before is actually not bad. The use of slave caravans to weaken the war potential of the barbarians for forty years is also an important reason why Zuo Yuliang was able to suppress the barbarians from the beginning of this war. However, it is a pity that there was no such secret road as Wanli Bamboo Sea at that time, and the scope of activities of slave caravans was too small, even Baitou Gorge was rarely set foot, which also gave the barbarians room for self-cultivation.
Now the crown prince means to grab it with both hands. That is to say, the slave caravan continues to operate, but the area behind Baitou Gorge needs new forces to infiltrate. "
"The new power has infiltrated? My lord, my subordinates don't understand very well." Shen Hao was confused. But the general meaning he guessed was that Yang Shu wanted to rely on the slave caravan to continue to suppress the space of the barbarians. On the one hand, he also wanted to completely disrupt the most southwestern region of the barbarians. But he really didn't understand what kind of infiltration method it was.
"What the crown prince means is that our Xuan Qingwei came out to infiltrate the barbarians, using the complexity of their ethnic groups to stir up conflicts and cause chaos. So you understand?"
"Is this to keep the barbarians fighting internally?" Shen Hao got it right. At the same time, he also somewhat guessed what the important task Jiang Cheng said was.
"Pang Dao thinks you are very suitable for this matter, and I also think that entrusting this matter to you can get twice the result with half the effort, so I will talk to you first. Tell me, do you have any ideas?"
Shen Hao has a big head, he has never done this kind of thing before, and according to the current situation in the barbarian territory, there is no chance of secretly sending spies there. The means of intervention have been denied, but Shen Hao is not helpless.
But this matter has to be asked again, because it seems that he is not qualified to complete such a large-scale nuisance operation as the leader of the Yamen of the Jingxi Black Flag Camp.
"My lord, is this task really entrusted to us, the commander of the Jingxi Black Banner Battalion? Is this suitable in terms of establishment?"
"Hehe, it's inappropriate now, but after the main battle in the south is over, you slowly start to prepare. After the preparation is over, are you still just the commander of the Black Flag Battalion in Jingxi?"
