Text Chapter 423: Alliance Leader (4)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Unlike the open selection of the Ming Dynasty's Good Knights, the leader of the Wulin League has never been a position that is publicly announced and selected by voting.  .  .  In fact, these activities are interrelated and related to each other.  Those who are eligible to run for the leadership of the martial arts alliance must be the heads of the ten sects. Sword masters like Feng Qingyang are not qualified to become candidates.  After all, the leader of the martial arts alliance is not the top martial arts master. What matters is the power in his hands, not his martial arts.  The appointment letters of the leaders of the ten sects are the imperial court's recognition of their strength, and the selection of the martial arts leader is a formal division of the pie among the Jianghu forces.  As for the famous people on the list of the top 100 masters, they relied on their boxing and stick skills to get a vote in their hands. From the public perspective of the court, the leaders of the martial arts alliance were selected by these Jianghu people, and the court did not intervene.  Since there are always people in the arena who like to say that strength is the most important, then the top 100 masters are obviously the most powerful people in the arena today.  Who dares to say no to the leader they elected?  This takes into account both overall strength and individual force, which can be said to be a balance between both sides.  Of course, in fact, the people who can sit in the room and vote know it well. The alliance leader has already discussed it, and it doesn't matter whether he writes his vote or not.  Being able to come in and vote is just to let the big guys know that I can get a piece of this pot in the future.  From the beginning, everyone did not have much entanglement on the issue of who should be the leader.  If the leader of the martial arts alliance enjoys the support of the imperial court's policies, he must also come from the imperial court.  The comparison is who has a close relationship with the court, who has friends and backers in the court, and who can serve in the government.  Turn those verbal promises into real money.  As soon as Zheng Guobao said that he would propose a name, and everyone considered whether it was suitable or not, the heroes knew that the leader of the martial arts alliance must be chosen by default.  If the person Uncle Guo said cannot be the leader of the alliance, then no one can be the leader of the martial arts alliance.  Ning Zhong is the rumored lover of his uncle Guo, and Master Fang Zheng is in charge of the monks and nuns in Henan Province. Both of them have great hopes. Ren Woxing, who has made a high-profile comeback, can also compete for the position of leader.  Unexpectedly, Uncle Guo nominated Liu Cheng, who was not a martial artist.  He serves as the leader of the martial arts alliance.  The word "martial arts leader" itself is a joke.  But the words that come out of Uncle Guo¡¯s mouth, even if they are jokes, must first become facts.  Let¡¯s see if it¡¯s a joke.  This one was born in Yikun Palace.  Empress Zheng¡¯s confidant eunuch.  It is natural for the officially recognized head of Wudang to assume the role of leader of the martial arts alliance.  Now everyone needs to discuss it.  It's just the appointment of several deputy leaders and the extent of their respective powers.  Liu Cheng knows nothing about martial arts.  However, he has been in the field for a long time, and has long been accustomed to competitions in this field.  The intrigues of these people in the world were so different from those in the palace and officialdom. Liu Cheng didn't know much about these people in the world at first, so he just kept silent.  Later, when I got to know their faces and found out their ways, I couldn't help but sneer secretly: How dare you use these two things in front of your Eunuch Liu?  You know, the master I follow dares to fight with the queen and dares to let his son compete for the crown prince position. Compared with this, what is the struggle between a group of martial arts sects?  While drawing a faction, while cultivating your own small group, he dismantled others' groups.  Create conflicts among the major sects, build a mountain among the top 100 masters, appoint officials and make wishes, and recruit guards.  Even without Zheng Guobao's help, Eunuch Liu himself was able to play like a fish in water.  Zheng Guobao couldn't help but praise in the room, "He is indeed a person who came out of my sister's womb. He has brains and is a material. In my opinion, maybe Liu Eunuch, the leader of the martial arts alliance, may not be appointed for only one term. According to what he does,  "Father, it is not a delusion to serve for four terms." Ren Yingying asked: "Even if the rivers and lakes become an object in a man's pocket, and he wants to flatten and round them, it only depends on his own happiness, but the rivers and lakes are worse than the country.  There are so many of them, what's the use of holding them in your hands? " "Yingying, you don't understand. Although the Jianghu people are nothing compared to the imperial government, they also have their own characteristics. They are flexible and compact.  The advantage is convenience. It's just that without a strong backer, being small means being weak, and being flexible also means that you can't withstand attacks. But what if Jianghu has the support of the government.  ? A Jianghu man in official uniform and a Jianghu man in shorts are two completely different things. In the future, I will gradually integrate those knights into the imperial system and let them serve as police officers, archers, and even serve as local regiment drills.  The most important thing is to send out civil servants and gentry to collect taxes. They have been entangled for many years and have their own influence.  Although the brigade is strong, it can only run rampant in the capital, and often it is not profitable when it comes to the local area. Look at how much more salt taxes have been collected after Yangzhou Ling Yunzhi was replaced by Murong Mu. This is the correct use of Jianghu people. " "  Jianghu people do have fewer clan ties than ordinary subordinates, and they also have less control over officialdom matters.?How to understand.  A group of stupid young people who dare to fight and kill, it is convenient to use.  But their hands are neither light nor heavy. Aren't you afraid that you will cause a big mess and it will be beyond control?  " "Nothing is impossible to deal with.  When it comes to collecting taxes, no matter how you do it, there will always be a problem in the end.  After all, there are too many bastard bosses in the court, and none of them care about increasing revenue, but only about cutting expenditure.  When it comes to the emptiness of the treasury, people think that the emperor is too extravagant and should advocate frugality.  They are using the standards of ancient sages to demand the heavenly family.  You can't reason with such a person.  They would only compare the Tianjia with those wealthy businessmen, as if the Tianjia should have a worse life than those wealthy businessmen, otherwise they would be a foolish king who only knows about enjoyment.  For such people, only a big stick and a sharp sword can make them obedient.  So if you cause trouble, just stir up trouble, and if you cause trouble, just poke trouble.  These people are outlaws to begin with, and I will be their backer.  If they cause a big trouble, I, Jin Yiwei, will arrange for them to run away and ensure that they will not be sanctioned by national laws. Then there will be nothing they dare not do.  As long as they relax their hands and feet, the tax will be easy to collect.  As long as the imperial court can raise business tax revenue and accomplish the task of dividing households into acres, it will be as stable as Mount Tai, with no fear of foreign enemies, let alone rebellion.  In order to achieve this goal, I don't mind killing him with his head rolling, and I don't mind killing him with his blood flowing like a river.  Jin Yiwei was originally supposed to do the wet work for the Tian family, but now fewer and fewer people have this awareness, so I had to find another group of people to do the wet work.  " Ren Yingying heard Zheng Guobao talk about the benefits of opening up the sea for trade and spreading farmers into acres of land many times. She was even more aware of the dangers involved. "He Xinyin from Huguang back then, and today's iron-kneed mountain farmer, everything is fine.  He loves to say that the people are more important than the king, and that there is no king or father.  This time you collect business taxes, I'm afraid this argument will become popular again.  " "So what?  Zhang Jiangling killed He Xinyin back then, why can't I kill these men of letters?  They have learned a lot of economics and moral articles, but they can't be used by the emperor, so that's it.  On the other hand, if you have to go against the emperor and become an enemy of the court, you are seeking death. No wonder others are cruel and evil.  Nowadays, there are some government servants and Tiqi who have lost their brains in the country. They don¡¯t know which side they should stand on, and they actually believe these people¡¯s fallacies.  Make offerings to them like saints.  Fortunately, most of these young heroes in the arena have never been poisoned. As long as they are given enough money to kill these so-called saints with their swords, they will not frown.  This is another benefit for them.  As for those who are really unclear, I don't mind using martial arts methods to make them disappear from the world. It is always easier to deal with them than to deal with some people with official status.  By the way, Yingying, how are the arrangements for what I told you?  " Ren Yingying nodded and said: "Don't worry, husband, most of our Holy Sect elites are here. The things you have assigned us have been arranged, and we guarantee that there will be no mistakes.  But, have things really come to this?  " "If what I expected is correct, the Tiqi who came to capture me is already on the way. I'm afraid he will have to go to Shaoshi Mountain to perform official duties in the next few days.  " Ren Yingying bit her teeth and said, "I don't care about the Ming Dynasty or the ancestral foundation.  All I know is that I am your woman and you are my man.  The two battalions of new troops in Henan are all former vassals of our Holy Religion, and the one battalion of new troops from Jindaomen also share weal and woe with you.  There are hundreds of good brothers in the Holy Cult, and with the money I have, I can hire hundreds of swordsmen who are desperate for their lives.  If you add in the young master who owes us a donkey rolling, it will be even more.  Whether they go by water or by land, I am sure that I will kill them all and leave no one behind.  Simply, let's just rebel here, it's better than being caught without a fight.  "(To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
