Chao Yong didn't hear Mr. Lao Zhongjinglue mention the intelligence system. Perhaps in Mr. Laozhong's view, it was an indispensable part of leading troops in war. Perhaps it would be inconvenient for Lao Zhongjinglue to tell Mr. Chao Yong, lest Chao Yong misunderstand that he wanted to get more benefits.
After Chao Yong went to Liangshan, he was always wary of Song Jiang, but he treated everyone else with confidence and never had any doubts. Most of the people in Liangshan were straightforward people, so Chao Yong had no suspicion of Wu Ren.
When Ren Liang talked about the Xixia intelligence system, Chao Yong was reminded of the organization in a classic martial arts of later generations, and asked curiously: "Xixia Yipintang?"
Ren Liang asked suspiciously: "What is Yipintang?"
Chao Yong looked at Ren Liang and knew that the Xixia intelligence system was not called Yipintang. He smiled awkwardly and said: "I heard from friends in the Jianghu that there is a Yipintang in Xixia, which specializes in recruiting martial arts masters, spying on information, and assassinating Song Dynasty generals."
Ren Liang smiled and said: "There are many rumors in the world that are exaggerated, but Xixia's intelligence agency did recruit a lot of Han people. Li Yuanhao, the founder of Xixia, was cunning and cunning. Every time he planned to send troops, he would send heavy rewards to Xizuo, so that Xixia could find out the truth and tell the truth about the Song army. Later, he used troops. He also raised a group of dead soldiers specifically to assassinate the generals of the Song Dynasty. Because Li Yuanhao rewarded these deeds very generously, many Han people also went to Xixia. The reward given by Li Yuanhao was probably not low. Because of the salary of a high-ranking official, many people would not risk their lives to find out information and assassinate generals. The emperors after Li Yuanhao also followed this policy. "
Chao Yong frowned and said: "Then they should come to assassinate me. Why are they always missing?"
Ren Liang thought for a while and said: "The Yongxing Army is farther away from Xixia. Maybe they are just ahead. The prince must be careful if he goes forward."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I just want to see their methods."
Ren Liang said hurriedly: "Prince, don't be careless. These tricks are just like Li Yuanhao's. He does everything possible and uses many tricks. The prince must be more careful. Li Yuanhao often sent people to rob some little boys under eight years old at the border. The ones with flatter heads were left and gathered in one place, and the children were allowed to fight with each other. The loser was punished very severely, so as long as they had a breath, they would definitely stand up and fight. Over time, they only knew how to knock down the ones in front. People. When these people go to the battlefield, they only know how to move forward, but they don't know how to retreat. They are very difficult to deal with. The frontier soldiers call these people "bloody men" because they are stained with blood as they grow up. "
"Is there still a bloody husband now?"
Chao Yong¡¯s later generations have actually seen some movies with such cruel things. People who grew up in fighting are probably more terrifying than the tough Jurchens.
Ren Liang shook his head and said: "No more, it just happened in the early days of the founding of Xixia. This kind of thing is unethical and unethical. After the story of the bloody husband is revealed, the Han and Fan people will definitely resist desperately when they see the Xixia people coming, for fear that their children will be snatched away. Add Some party members in Upper Xixia who had lost their children also suspected that Li Yuanhao was responsible, and the blood husband disappeared due to various pressures. "
Chao Yong was relieved when he heard that there were no more blood men. Although he was not afraid of these blood men, ordinary soldiers under his command might not be able to defeat these blood men. After worrying about his soldiers, Chao Yong was immediately filled with anger. I didn't expect that Li Yuanhao would dare to treat Han people like this.
War is cruel, especially the fight between two nations in which no one is right or wrong. The two sides were actually just fighting for a better living space, but such abuse of the Han people still made Chao Yong feel the pain.
"The day when Xixia was destroyed was the day when the Li family was destroyed."
Ren Liang heard what Chao Yong said. There was no persuasion, as the soldiers of the Western Army and Xixia had blood feuds for generations. Once Xixia is destroyed, it will probably be difficult for the Western Army soldiers to stop. It would be very tolerant to only destroy the Li family.
The two chatted some more about Xixia affairs. Chao Yong suddenly said: "Ren Gong will select some capable officials during this period and prepare to be the first governor of Shaanxi."
The reform of official positions in Daliang has taken initial shape. Each district has appointed governors to take charge of political affairs, and generals of soldiers to take charge of military affairs. The two are not subordinate to each other, and they are all second-rank officials. The officials of each state are called magistrates, and the military attach¨¦s are called governors. They are all appointed directly by the court. The governor-general and the commander-in-chief only have jurisdiction but no power to appoint. Each road has a supervisory agency.
Ren Liang also had his ups and downs in the officialdom. He did not show much joy at his promotion, but said: "The prince wants to merge with Shaanxi Road?"
Chao Yong nodded and said: "Yongxingjun, Fuyan Road, and Huanqing Road were merged into Shaanxi Road, Jingyuan Road, and Qinfeng Road were merged into Gansu Road. Xihe Road plus a few hundred miles around Qinghai Lake became Qinghai Road."
Ren Liang said curiously: "The Song Dynasty only captured Qingtang City and changed its name to Xining Prefecture, which is still two hundred miles away from Qinghai Lake."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "Then we can fight as far as Qinghai Lake, which is only two hundred miles away. Fight backIn Xixia, all roads were merged. The court lacked officials, so preparations had to be made early for the appointment of Duke. "
Ren Liang nodded and said: "Prince, don't worry. The imperial court has exempted agricultural taxes and excessive levies and miscellaneous taxes, and the officials will have a lot less work. As long as some officials who are familiar with the law are sent, plus the Jinshi sent by the imperial court to assist, there will not be any problems."
"Huanqing Road has never been loyal to me, Daliang. The army's grain and grass transportation to Weizhou has to pass through Pizhou, so I am a little worried. But Pizhou has not been loyal to Daliang. If I directly send troops to Pizhou, I am afraid it will cause a backlash on Huanqing Road. So I want to stay Ten thousand soldiers and horses are in Jingzhao Prefecture. If Pizhou blocks our food route, we can send troops from Jingzhao Prefecture to open up the food route."
Ren Liang naturally knew what Chao Yong was worried about, so he nodded and said, "That's exactly what the prince is worried about. You really need to be careful at both ends of the Huanqing Road. Although the lower official can command the Yongxing Army's soldiers and horses, the Yongxing Army's soldiers are The horses are not strong enough to compete with the soldiers and horses on Huanqing Road, so I want to ask the prince to station troops for safety."
Ren Liang was an upright man who cared more about the people than his career, so he spoke upright and opposed Cai Jing's changes that harmed the people. When he first received the imperial edict asking him to lead the Yongxing Army to surrender to Daliang, he was puzzled and hurriedly sent people to investigate. Later, he heard that Liangshan soldiers and horses raided Tokyo, and the royal family was wiped out, and he was dumbfounded.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao coerced the emperor to order the princes. There were many clans in the Han Dynasty, but no one could replace the emperor.
????????? After Xia Qi¡¯s abdication, all dynasties have been governed by one family, and this family is only a small family of the emperor, not a large family of the royal family. If the royal family commits crimes, they are also causing chaos.
The whole line of Zhao Ji was wiped out, which meant the death of the Song Dynasty.
People all over the world are watching the jokes of officials from all over the world, watching how they make choices. The loyalty education they received since childhood allows them to accept the order, but their reason tells them that they cannot accept the order.
When many foolish and loyal ministers saw Zhao Ji¡¯s imperial edict, they cried and accepted it.
No one dared to go to Qinwang because no one dared to lead troops to Tokyo. Daliang doesn't need to send troops at that time, all he has to do is push Zhao Ji out. If the emperor is humiliated and his ministers die, no one dares to let the emperor be humiliated. Unless you make up your mind to rebel, then there is no point in King Qin.
Ren Liang was born in poverty. While struggling with his thoughts, he thought more about the common people. He also knew that Xixia would not give up this opportunity. If the war broke out, the people would suffer more.
If no one can resist Xixia, I am afraid that Xixia will, like Tubo during the Anshi Rebellion, take the opportunity to invade Shaanxi and even harm the Central Plains. Because of the Anshi Rebellion, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty ran away, and most of the world was still under the control of the emperor, who could mobilize troops and horses to resist Tibet. But now the emperor is captured, with no one to command him, and the various states may not be able to rescue each other.
Ren Liang believed that he had no ability to turn the tide, and the main force of the Western Army was in the south of the Yangtze River. Even if the old manager came to the rescue, he might not be able to stop the Xixia people.
Just when Ren Liang was worried, Zhongshidao sent him a letter and told him about the situation in the northwest. If they wanted to resist Xixia, they must seek refuge with a force that could send troops for reinforcements. The emperor of the Song Dynasty was captured and leaderless, so he was obviously the first to be eliminated. Then only the rebels Chao Gai, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing were left. Wang Qing and Tian Hu were both harmful, and only Chao Gai acted for heaven and had a fair reputation. Moreover, the emperor's imperial edict also asked them to submit to Daliang. What's more important is that Daliang has promised the Zhongshi Taoist Association to send troops to assist.
After Ren Liang weighed the pros and cons, he agreed to submit to Daliang. Since he became a minister, he had no other ideas. He was not a general, and he did not feel that anywhere was his territory, so he was not unhappy with Chao Yong's garrison in Jingzhao Mansion, not to mention that Chao Yong had just promised him to be the first governor of Shaanxi.
