Chapter 397 Means

The entire Ding Naval regime is now forging ahead.Guo Ning is also a martial artist, with one order, everything can be done immediately.

Now that the discussion with the close ministers has been decided, the assembly will continue in Laizhou the next day, and Guo Ning, holding the imperial edict, formally assumes the post of Yipinyitong Sansi, Shandong East Road Xuanfu envoy, and uses the gold and silver granted by the Shufu The Fu and the empty name Xuanzhang made it difficult for the civil and military officials under his command to move and promote.

On weekdays, the soldiers put on an appearance that they don't pay much attention to the official position of the court, but when it comes time to be promoted and appointed as an official, they are always happy.After a while of joy, Guo Ning pointed with a golden knife and issued various orders on the spot. All the generals and officials went up to the stage to receive the tiger charms and military orders, and set off immediately, acting vigorously and resolutely.

Within ten days, 2 troops were signed, and outside of Guo Ning's headquarters, the field elites from the military divisions below Luo Monk, Li Ting, and Wang Shixian were urgently expanded to [-]; within five days, all the grain and fodder in stock were counted , set the transshipment route one by one; within three days, mobilize civilians to repair the roads and bridges in the territory, and arrange military stations along the way;

There are still many specific matters. With hundreds of civil and military personnel rushing to their positions, the three states of Denglai, which have recuperated for a year, are like a war machine, running briskly.And in the commander-in-chief's mansion, from time to time, there are servants who send orders to fly all over the place, and wherever they pass, there is noisiness and boiling.

Previously, in order to support Guo Ning's military operations in Liaodong, his subordinates had carried out emergency mobilization in the three states of Denglai.However, the scale of mobilization and tension at that time could not be compared with that at this time.

And this kind of situation inevitably exposed some omissions in the army.

For example, although Guo Ning made repeated orders, and held literacy classes more than once, in fact, there are still many military officers who boast of being rough and tough, but actually do not know how to read at all.

At this point, important, urgent, and even confidential matters are all thrown down.Participating in a military plane without authorization is a felony of beheading, and the copywriter has no identity, so he dare not get involved.So I had to go back and forth with my own family, using two ears and one mouth to send messages and reports, delaying the military situation out of thin air.

For another example, due to the booming business of several mines, the responsible officials only cared about speeding up the construction of the camps where the miners lived.As a result, the army was about to move at this time, and the camp that was scheduled to be recruited as a military station had only laid the foundation.

Scattered things, all kinds of unexpected miscellaneous affairs, even if there is a government affairs expert like Yisa Chucai in charge, there will inevitably be many, and Guo Ning has to watch it personally.

At this time, Zhang Rong and Yan Shi, who were recently transferred to Guo Ning's side and became experienced as the capital, played a very important role.A court official like Liang Xunyi is just a cover after all, and the bottom line is strict and straightforward, while Zhang Rong is conscientious and thoughtful, which is Guo Ning's right-hand man.

Of course, Guo Ning himself is not slack. He has been busy for several days and often works until late at night.

Because Lu Han has always been in charge of affairs, he has no distinction between inside and outside. Sometimes he goes back to the inner house with his documents in his arms to look, and sometimes he thinks of something in the middle of the night, and he comes out to invite people to ask questions immediately.

Xu Yu's recording department is in charge of summarizing information from both inside and outside parties, and originally worked in a side courtyard of Jieshuai's mansion.At this moment, in order to facilitate Guo Ning's inquiries, he simply took a few subordinates and lived in a side room on the side of the main hall.

One night, Guo Ning took the latest summary of the Shandong situation in his hand and walked to the inner courtyard.Xu Yu stood shoulder to shoulder with him, and the two discussed together, and just decided on how to deal with several official affairs.

In recent days, it has just entered autumn, the moonlight is bright, and the wind passing through the corridor is gradually cooling.

Guo Ning's footsteps were trembling, he reached the round gate of the inner courtyard, and turned back, repeating the same thing over and over again.Wherever he walked, the north wind rolled the branches and whistled.

"Those people, have you been invited to see them?" Guo Ning said.

"The local government needs to collect food and sign the army, and the affairs are complicated, so Shi Poli just arrived today. After looking at it, he said with certainty that he has never seen this person by Yang An'er's side."

Guo Ning nodded slightly, thoughtfully: "Jin Qing also brought some of the civil servants who are familiar with Yang An'er. People like Geng Ge and the others said they didn't recognize him after seeing it."

"We have news later that Yang An'er is indeed dead, and he was indeed killed in an ambush by the Jin army on the Henan Road. But..." Xu Yu pondered: "Considering that this person came so timely, let's count the Red Coat Army The time when the various departments in the Central Committee were in chaos... There must be deceit. Someone spread news to our army and to the various departments of the Red Coat Army in advance to promote the collapse of chaos. The person who pretended to be Yang An'er's envoy was one of them."

"In this way, the person who reported the letter was not Yang An'er's personal guard, but a dead body sent by a certain party."

"Yes."

Guo Ning cursed in a low voice, and the two were silent for a while.

After a while, Guo Ning asked: "You said, who sent this? What is the purpose?"

"Let's look at its purpose first. It is obviously to sow discord between us and the Red Coat Army. When Yang An'er died, the rest of the Red Coat Army were in panic. We are the soldiers of the imperial court after all. Once we are dispatched, can we really use the Allies to rescue us?" But Yang An'er died again, there is no way to explain it, and there is nowhere to explain it, so it is inevitable that there will be hostilities and chaos, and there will be bloody fights. At that time, it will definitely be beneficial for others to fish in troubled waters."

Xu Wei frowned slightly, and continued to think: "The person who was sent out from the dead room is very familiar with the situation of our Dinghai and the red coat army, so the dead man opened his mouth to ask for help, and he also brought a special talisman letter for the red coat army with him. He has fooled us all. In addition, since he can send death to act, that person must be in a high position and have great authority, otherwise it will be difficult to make people willing to die."

"In this case, there are only two suspicious ones."

Xu Yu responded, "Either it is King Sui, or servant San Anzhen."

"They have gained a firm foothold in their respective territories, and they have started plotting against my old friend!"

Guo Ning sneered: "When I was in Liaodong, I took Puxian Wannu as a pawn. Now, someone wants to use me as a pawn in the Navy. This is to see me and the Red Coat Army have a complete fallout. Consume the power of my navy and watch my show."

"So, Jie Shuai, do we need to take a break?"

Xu Yu asked cautiously: "At this time, if we show some patience, we may be able to respond to the situation and not fall into their schemes."

Guo Ning knew that what Xu Xuan meant was that there was no need to use troops for the time being, but relying on the vague friendship between the two parties, he first used a soft hand to show his tenderness, and slowly gathered the strength of the red coat army.Even the personal friendship between Guo Ning and some people in the Red Coat Army may as well be used.

He continued to pace, and walked two more circles before standing still.

After a while, he said in a deep voice: "The arrow is on the string, I have to shoot it!"

Guo Ning's time in Shandong is still short, and it is impossible to manage the large territories of the three states of Denglai.So the soldiers were eager to open up territories before, but he repeatedly told them not to be impatient.

But in fact, how could Guo Ning really not be in a hurry?
He was anxious to stabilize the three states of Denglai and to expand and develop, because time was not waiting for us.

The Mongols went south again and again, drawing blood and nutrients from Jin Guo time and time again, and they would only become stronger and stronger.Face such an enemy.How can one or two small victories bring confidence to Guo Ning?In his heart, he always felt that he wanted to be stronger, he wanted to become stronger as soon as possible, and he wanted to become stronger at a speed far better than that of the Mongols.

Since it was decided at the beginning, Guo Ning must keep moving forward if he wants to strangle the Mongols by the throat and fight the powerful enemy to the end.Moreover, he didn't move forward alone. Monk Luo, Yila Chucai, Jing'anmin and countless others followed him, and also engulfed him, gaining and sharing benefits from his progress.

Xu Yu's idea was not wrong.I am afraid that our side's mobilization this time has indeed been calculated by others; the best way to deal with it should have been to stabilize the situation and wait.

But how can the already mobilized Dinghai, with so many civil and military personnel, and so many soldiers eager for land and military merit wait?How can the military spirit that has been aroused wait?

The ancients said, one vigorous effort, then decline, three exhaustion.

Guo Ning has always attached great importance to this vigorous effort when using troops, and the soldiers are also used to vigorous effort.At this time, the drums are already rumbling, so how can we stop the drums and count on two drums and three drums?
It's nothing more than the Red Coat Army, it's nothing more than a character hiding behind and trying to fish in troubled waters. Since the army is mobilized, if someone dares to block the way, they can just step down.

"The plan remains the same." Guo Ning straightened his waist and held down the hilt of the knife: "Tomorrow morning, the troops will be dispatched in two groups, and each other will be in a strange situation. We will take Weizhou and Yidu in the west, and Mizhou and Juzhou in the south. Then, with the force of a thunderbolt, sweep Shandong!"
