The recruitment of envoys on Guangnan West Road is a temporary assignment, and it is also a military position.

Cen Zhong was given such a position and sent here. It was not a matter of reuse, but a disguised form of derogation. On the surface, it seemed that he had been promoted, but in the eyes of insiders, Cen Zhong's official career was almost

It's going to end here.

Because on Guangnan West Road, there are pacification envoys who lead the military and political affairs, and transfer envoys who manage the finances. Do you think it is annoying to send a recruiting envoy again?

Who are you coming to Guangnan West Road to recruit?

Like Qianzhou, there are dozens of Jizhous on the Guangnan West Road, and the same trend continues. Moreover, because it is connected to many Jizhous and Jiaozhi, the two collude, making it even more arrogant.

An empty-headed official with an official title, no soldiers, no military pay, just sent Cen Zhong to take office. Tell me how much the Zhao Song officials hated Cen Zhong.

In fact, since Xiao Ding rebelled against the Song Dynasty and established himself in the northwest, the officials of the Zhao and Song Dynasties could hardly hear anything related to the Xiao family, and they could not see anyone related to the Xiao family.

You, Cen Zhong, have some connections with the Xiao family, yet you stupidly wrote a letter to suggest how to deal with Xiao Ding. Do you think you are stupid?

More importantly, in the eyes of the Zhao Song officials, your strategy is to give Xiao Ding a chance to breathe and to let his opponent slow down. This is truly a shameful thing.

Therefore, in anger, the Zhao Song official family threw Cui Zhong to Guangnan West Road.

This is really malicious.

When Cen Zhong took office on Guangnan West Road, he had two consequences. One was to go to Guangnan West Road to appease the dignitaries, and to go to the transshipment envoy to ask for money. The consequences were of course obvious. Not only did he get nothing, but he probably didn't even get anything.

The face has to be folded in.

The second outcome is that Cen Chong is so angry that he can't find money or people, so he raises money and wages on his own. This road is not only difficult but also full of dangers. There is no chance that if someone is not well prepared, he will end up there.

A chaotic place.

In the eyes of many people, no matter which path Cen Zhong takes, it is a road of no return.

Unless Cen Zhong loses his shame and quits being an official, he may pretend to be sick or crazy. Such tactics have not been used by predecessors.

But with this, Cen Zhong's official career has really come to an end.

This is a blatant plot to plot against you, leaving you so aggrieved that you have no place to express your feelings.

Because everything is done openly and under the sun.

But Cen Zhong has a junior brother.

When he first took office, he took his gray-haired father to Qianzhou first. When he entered Guangnan West Road, he was no longer alone, but had a strong army.

He did not go to Guizhou, the seat of Guangnan West Road, nor did he report to his nominal boss, the Guangnan West Road pacifier. Instead, he only sent one person with an official document, claiming that the military situation was urgent and he was busy with official duties.

Because state affairs were the most important thing, he went straight to Yongzhou and made the Yongzhou government office Xuanhua as his recruiting envoy.

In this regard, neither the Guangnan West Road pacification envoy nor the transfer envoy has the right to interfere.

Because the recruitment envoy is a temporary assignment. To put it more seriously, if you want to put some halo around yourself, it is reasonable to insist that you are an imperial envoy.

The pacifier on Guangnan West Road could never tell the emperor's intention clearly.

As for the petty officials below, they would not dare to openly confront him except to embarrass Cen Zhong.

Moreover, Dang Cen Zhong arrived with troops and horses, so he did not even dare to go against the will.

Otherwise, if you lose your head, who can you explain to?

In more than half a year, Cen Zhong started his new business boldly.

Really drastic!

Killed with blood.

The Tibetan people are afraid of power but not moral. If you try to reason with them, you will not be able to make sense. To them, talking nonsense is a sign of weakness. But when your knife is sharper than theirs, they will stop.

Just like when Xiao Cheng first arrived in Guizhou, he used a knife to open the way, and then built the economic platform. After two years, with big sticks and candied dates flying together, the great rule of southwestern Guizhou was achieved, which looks like a paradise.

appearance.

But who knew that there were many bones buried under the soil that looked like a paradise now.

Countless people have lived to verify the simple truth that if you don't obey, you will die.

Cen Zhong learned from others.

In more than half a year, dozens of Jizhou Prefectures had a completely new look.

However, the situation he faced was still very different from Xiao Cheng.

First of all, Xiao Cheng had two major forces, Bozhou Yang and Sizhoutian, to protect him at that time. With these two major forces working together, Li Fang, the transfer envoy of Kuizhou Road, had no choice but to turn a blind eye.

I closed my eyes, but now, in the face of huge economic interests, I have already boarded the boat and started to join in the mischief.

As for Cen Zhong, because there are two high-ranking officials in charge of the pacification envoy and the transshipment envoy, and many of the Jisu prefectures he regulates are connected to Jiaozhi, there are more problems here.

First, he harmed the interests of some people.

After controlling this area, Cen Zhong also cut off the trade route to Jiaozhi.

Of course, normal business exchanges are still smooth. As long as you pay taxes, you can still get protection from officers and soldiers. Because of Cen Zhong's existence, the security situation in this area is now much better, and many ordinary merchants dare to walk here.

On a journey.

However, the most profitable thing is never normal business transactions, but many businesses that are not on the table.

And these transactions that are not on the table are not something ordinary merchants can do. Those who dare to do such things are naturally those who have the head, face, power and power to dominate Guangnan West Road.

Cutting off someone's money is like killing one's parents.

Naturally, some people want to get rid of Cen Zhong.

The second question is Jiaozhi.

The Song Dynasty court never recognized Jiaozhi as an independent political power. The King of Jiaozhi was also called the Jinghai Road Pacifier. In order not to provoke the Song Dynasty to beat him, the King of Jiaozhi also called himself Jinghai Road in the documents he exchanged.

Comforter.

Anyway, one side is pretending, and the other side is just blindfolded and pretending not to see.

Over the years, the two parties have been able to work together happily.

When the Song Dynasty was strong and there was nothing going on around the country, Jiaozhi naturally behaved itself. But when there was trouble in the Song Dynasty, the King of Jiaozhi was ready to take action.

Over the years, the King of Jiaozhi has never stopped infiltrating through Guangnan West Road. Which of those Jisuzhous close to them have not benefited from him? Some have even secretly defected to Jiaozhi.

As soon as Cen Zhong came, he swung his knife without hesitation, damaging the economic interests of some important people on both sides, and making the King of Jiaozhi feel deeply threatened. Cen Zhong really reorganized Yongzhou and prospered.

With all my loyalty to Zhao Song, wouldn't I be at a disadvantage again and have to guard against Da Song coming to deal with me day and night?

Of course this is not possible.

Therefore, it is best for Cen Zhong to die.

The two parties coincided with each other, and then under the help of thoughtful people, they immediately hooked up and planned to get rid of this guy who ruined their beautiful life.

However, Cen Zhong is not a regular scholar, so he naturally has a few brushes.

In Yongzhou, while killing people, I also buried a few chess pieces. Although they were few and could not play a particularly big role, I could still get some information. It was naturally much better than being blind and deaf.

.

This is how the news that both sides wanted to kill Cen Zhong came about.

Cen Zhong was not surprised but happy.

Although it is dangerous to pick millet from the fire, the rewards are high!

I'm worried that I won't find a chance to mess with you, but you actually bring the clues to my door, which is naturally disrespectful.

However, even though Cen Zhong now has three thousand soldiers led by Wei Wu in Yongzhou, he is still worried. Deep cooperation with Xiao Cheng has become his only option.

The officials of Zhao Song Dynasty wanted to get him Cen Zhong.

This means that the king regards his ministers as a piece of grass, while the ministers regard him as an enemy and bandit.

Everything that Xiao Cheng, this junior brother, is doing now is really in line with Cen Zhong's wishes.

Xiao Cheng wanted to conquer Dali, but Cen Zhong wanted to conquer Jiaozhi.

Dali was also a vassal state of the Song Dynasty, which was recognized by the world. Even Xiao Cheng wanted to do it, let alone Jiaozhi!

Jiaozhi has always been regarded as its own territory by the Song Dynasty, but now the guys who are entrenched in this land are tall and round, and they want to be independent. As for the Song Dynasty, they feel that there is no confidence in fighting, and then they are affected by the surrounding things.

Once involved, just let it go and just maintain a face.

If Jiaozhi was captured by himself and re-located in the Annan Mansion of the Song Dynasty, haha, then Cen Zhong would feel that his life would be truly fulfilling.

But to achieve this, how can a Guangnan West Road pacifier who has been implicated have enough weight? Of course, he must first be a Guangnan West Road pacifier, and then move forward, the Liangguang Road pacifier is also

Operable.

This is what my junior brother told me.

In this way, he and his junior brother can work together to defeat Dali first, and then beat Jiaozhi together. Wouldn't it be nice?

This time they wanted to punish themselves to death, so they used their plan to defeat them in one fell swoop.

However, the strength I have at hand must have been calculated, so if I want to take things by surprise, I have to rely on my junior brother to help.

Cen Zhong doesn't care if the military force under his command is controlled by his junior brother. After all, it costs too much money to raise an army. Now that his junior brother is paying for the army, he can use it if he can, and he can use it smoothly, which is great.

thing.

When Guangnan West Road is all under his control, he can form a new army. At that time, he will need to cultivate some of his cronies.

This time another thousand soldiers were borrowed.

But what Cen Zhong didn't expect was that his junior brother would follow him eagerly.

He said that there was nothing important happening during this period, and he wanted to follow his senior brother to broaden his horizons.

Cen Zhong also welcomes it. The younger brother is a very clever person with many evil intentions. With him here, the soldiers and horses under his command will definitely be more effective.

Moreover, the junior brother personally took action, and this time the federation sent out the Qianzhou Xiang Army led by Han Zuo.

It is called the Xiang Army, but in fact, its equipment and combat power rank first among the armies under the Federation.

The thousand people carefully selected are the best among the best.

"Junior brother, tell me the truth, have you been on Guangnan West Road in the past two years?" The two of them were walking side by side. Cen Zhong stroked his neat mustache and looked sideways at the energetic and heroic man next to him.

Xiao Cheng.

"If I say no, will Senior Brother believe me?"

"Of course I don't believe it!" Cen Zhong said matter-of-factly: "This is not your style. When you look at what you do, you will drop a few stones randomly, whether it is useful or not, just throw them away first. By the way, Jing'er

, it will be of great use, right?”

"Since the senior brother said so, then of course there is one!" Xiao Cheng said with a smile: "But senior brother, don't worry, most of my sons are located at the border with my Qianzhou jurisdiction, and most of them use the same clan.

I quietly recruited a group of people. I didn't originally think that the senior brother would come to this place, so I had these arrangements. Now, even though the senior brother is here, some chess have been played, but we can't stop."

"Understood!" Cen nodded.

"Elder brother, this time they spent a lot of money to get you." Xiao Cheng smiled and said: "According to what you said, the local tribal troops mobilized alone numbered thousands, plus those who were among them.

The armed forces sent by the enemy and the elite soldiers from Jiaozhi add up to just over 10,000 people."

"The fighting power of the barbarian tribes is limited. It is said to be a few thousand, but the real fighting power will not exceed a thousand. The others are just playing around and joining in the fun. If they win, they will take advantage. If they lose, they will take advantage."

Yes, they can run faster than rabbits." Cen Zhong said disdainfully: "The really difficult ones to fight are the military elites mixed in and those guys who came from Cochin."

"This battle must not only be won, but also won cleanly, and the important people must be captured one by one!" Xiao Cheng said: "Otherwise, we will not be able to defeat those people."

"Of course, these people's plans are vicious!" Cen Zhong sneered: "It would be best to kill me cleanly. Then they will issue a memorial, hypocritically saying that I am diligent in the king's affairs, but I will die halfway.

Maybe they can even get me a ban. If I don't die and run away, the black hat of the turmoil in this large area will naturally be pinned on my head. I have already made the officials extremely disgusted, and if I do this again

At this moment, it is estimated that death is not far away. At the very least, I have to take off my official uniform and go to inspect the wine tax or something. Maybe it is not impossible to go to Salman Island."

"It's always easy to deal with enemies on the surface, but it's the invisible enemies from within that are scary!" Xiao Cheng said.

"If it weren't for the fact that you have become such a popular person here, I wouldn't have come here to die. I would have taken off my official uniform long ago and returned to my hometown to be a wife!" Cen Chong said proudly: "But since I have already opened it, my junior brother

Given the situation, I naturally have to follow suit to take advantage of the situation. This is called keeping the money from others."

"I have always admired the talent of Senior Brother!"

"You don't mean what you say. Are you praising me or yourself?"

"This is called cherishing each other and respecting heroes!"
