Chapter 206 Dadu

The strong wind blew heavy snow on the ground. Hitting people in the face, like a knife, tingling into the flesh. Every winter, it is bitterly cold.

However, pedestrians on the road did not feel much discomfort. I have been living outside the fortress for a long time. The weather here is much better than that outside the fortress. They were wearing sheepskin coats and walking on the street. The notices on the street were already tired of reading them. Those who should do business, those who should visit, the end of the year will come soon.

The snow on the ground has been trampled into solid ice. You have to be careful when walking on this kind of ground. If you ride a horse, it is even more dangerous. If you don't pay attention, even if the horse loses its front hoof, the horse will break its legs, and people will suffer.

"Bop out of the way, get out of the way!" In this kind of weather, on this kind of ground, there are still people running on horses?

The passers-by got out of the way one after another, for fear that these reckless ghosts would bump into them and give their lives for no reason.

"So urgent, what are they doing?" A passer-by said.

"Then there is no need to ask. Looking at their dress, you will know that it is a postmen who transmits emergency military information. Recently, there has been turmoil everywhere. I'm afraid there are bandits in some places." A passer-by said.

"Shh! Keep your voice quiet and don't talk nonsense. It's been very fierce recently.

The horses ran forward quickly, and the wide road led to the magnificent palace, where the imperial city was.

Here, it's most of the city.

The capital was the political center of the Yuan Dynasty. After Genghis Khan captured Jinzhongdu (i.e. Yanjing), it was used as an important stronghold for the Mongolian aristocracy to rule the Han Dynasty. In February of the ninth year of the Yuan Dynasty, Kublai Khan accepted Liu Bingzhong's proposal to move the capital, changed Yanjing, the capital of the Central Capital, and officially designated it as the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. In the first month of the eleventh year of the Yuan Dynasty, Kublai Khan received the congratulations of civil and military officials in the main hall of Dadu, and most of them became the brains of the Yuan Dynasty from then on.

After Genghis Khan established the Greater Mongolia, the center of his rule was in Helin. After Kublai Khan became emperor, the center of his rule had been moved from Mobei to the Central Plains, so Kaiping was changed to Shangdu. Later, he moved to Yanjing, changed his capital to Zhongdu, and later changed his name to Dadu. Later, most of them had a louder name, called Yanjing.

Most of the capitals are connected to Shuo Mo in the north, control the Central Plains in the south, Taihang in the west, and the Bohai Sea in the east. The terrain is superior. The terrain of the whole Central Plains is high in the north and low in the south, which is suitable for cavalry to attack the south. The previous invasions of ethnic minorities in the north occupy this geographical advantage. Moreover, along the transportation of grain in the south can be smoothly transported to most capitals, and It can be shipped by sea. Both Liao and Jin dynasties chose the capital. Kublai Khan identified the capital as the capital, and according to the tradition of Han culture, he built a new capital, studied Han culture, and changed to the Han method.

The capital city is a rectangle facing south, with the wall rammed and reeds outside to prevent rain erosion. The circumference is more than 50 miles. There are eleven gates around the city: the south is Lizheng, the east is civilization, the west is Shuncheng; the north is the east is Anzhen, the west is Jiande; the east is Chongren, the south is Qihua, the north is Guangxi is Guangxi; the west is the peace, the south is Pingze, and the north is the clear. There is a central pavilion on the east bank of Haizi in the city, which is the center of the city.

The imperial city is located in the south and west of the city, with Daming Hall, Yanchun Pavilion, Longfu Palace and other palaces.

At this time, in the Yanchun Pavilion, the master of the world today, the high-ranking Yuanshun Emperor, is only a catty? Tuo Huan Tie Mu'er didn't show his eyebrows. He listened to the minister's words and felt a little uneasy.

"Your Majesty, Gaoyou Mansion sent an emergency military situation. In Gaoyou Mansion, a bandit appeared in Gaoyou Mansion. There were tens of thousands of them. The general Na Su-lading stationed in Gaoyou died in battle. There were only 1,000 soldiers left in the whole Gaoyou Mansion. Gaoyou Mansion asked the court to send more troops, otherwise it might be broken by the bandits. "." The master said.

Li Qi, the magistrate of Gaoyou, had no choice. The salt farm was occupied by Zhang Shicheng, and half of the land was robbed by the other party. Moreover, the general Na Suading stationed in Gaoyou was killed in the battle. He wanted to hide such a big thing, but he could not hide it. The only way is to report it. If it is only said that a group of salt people in the salt field rebelled, and the leader is still the gang of the salt farm, then although the salt farm belongs to the Lianghuai Salt Transportation Department, he can't escape the responsibility, which can only be attributed to the Red Turban Army. Moreover, the number of people has increased several times to tens of thousands. Only 2,000 officers and soldiers were stationed in Gaoyou Mansion, and most of them were transferred. In this way, the responsibility was pushed away by him.

Tout, the full name is Totate Timur, the word is very useful, Kazakh Mier begging people. Zu Shang followed the Mongolian army from the Kazakh grassland to the Central Plains. Uncle Yan, the emperor of Yuanshun, was happy to be the prime minister of Zhongshu after his accession to the throne, and he has been in charge of the country for eight years. He was raised in his uncle's uncle Yan's family since he was a child, but he witnessed Bo Yan's rebellion, and he was deeply felt that the situation was serious. He won the support of Emperor Yuanshun and launched a coup to drive Bo Yan out of power.

He deposed Bo Yan and became the right prime minister under one person and above ten thousand people. He did not regard himself as a high position. He had been working hard to govern and assisting the emperor. Unfortunately, the Yuan Dynasty lost the hearts of the people for a long time. Although those things that intensified the national contradictions were all done by Bo Yan when he was the prime minister. The imperial examination system was abolished, and the Han people with five surnames were killed. Several families shared a kitchen knife, which were all done by Bo Yan. However, the people only know that it was done by the court, and it will not be attributed to someone. The people are already full of grievances. Since the Yellow River broke the mouth and the change of money led to inflation, the world has been in chaos. Moreover, there are many voices against him in the court.

A few months ago, it was still the prime minister's detachment and led the army to capture the sesame Li, which occupied Xuzhou. Xuzhou was too close to most of them. Moreover, this sesame Li did not know whether it was good or not, but actually cut off the transportation, which was intolerable by the imperial court. After the city was broken, it was free from slaughtering all the local people to set an example.

After the class teacher returned to the court, Emperor Yuanshun added the title of Taishi.

In the official system of the Yuan Dynasty, the central government was divided into Sangong, Zhongshu Province, Liubu, Privy Council, Yushitai, Dazongzhengfu, Xuanzhengyuan, Taixizongyuan and Chuzhengyuan. The three princes are one member of Taishi, Taifu and one member of Taibao, Zheng Yipin; Zhongshu Province set up the right prime minister (the right side of the Yuan Dynasty) and one member of the left prime minister, Zheng Yipin, unifying the six officials, leading a hundred divisions, supporting the emperor, and Li Wanji.

"Now there is Liu Futong's rebellion in the north, Xu Shouhui in the south, and Guo Zixing in the west. With so many Red Turban troops rising up at the same time, I'm afraid the master is rich but not strong enough, right?" Hama said.

Hama is a fraud and once had a kindness to get rid of it. However, after getting rid of it, it has not been used seriously. Up to now, he is also a messenger of the Xuanzheng Yuan. He has always held a grudge. Therefore, whenever he has a chance, he will be dug a hole for getting rid of it.

Hearing this sentence, Emperor Yuanshun was also very unhappy: "Toutou, you have tried to say that the world is peaceful. In the middle of the Red Turban Army, what should the master do to treat it?"

"Your Majesty, Cheng has been working hard for the state affairs to quell the rebellion in Xuzhou. Moreover, Cheng has been dispatching troops to encircle and suppress the Red Turban Army in various places. Moreover, Cheng also used the armed forces of rich families from all over the world to deal with bandits. Nowadays, the red scarf army in various places has been scattered like birds and beasts, and there is no climate.

"Hmm." Hama said dissatisfiedly, "Isn't there a climate? What's wrong with the bandits of Gaoyou? It didn't come out of thin air, did it?

"Your Majesty." Totout did not pay attention to Hama. He carefully analyzed: "Because we have dispersed the Red Turban Army in various places, some of the scattered Red Turban Army ran to the boundary of peace and rose again. They must be weak and not afraid. So far, Gaoyou is still one of the relatively stable boundaries, and the surrounding roads are also relatively stable, except for the distant Anfeng Road. Therefore, Weichen concluded that the several red scarf troops this time are not climatic at all.

"Master, the memorial says tens of thousands of red scarves, not a few!" Hama said.

"What about tens of thousands? They are all exiles. What's so terrible? Which of our soldiers is not a warrior? Nasu-lading was just proud of his achievements and underestimated his opponent before he fell into the trap of bandits. If the emperor is worried, he can send a minister to calm down the chaos.

"Let the master go from time to time. Doesn't it make it seem that I have no one?" Hama said.

"Your Majesty, the Gaoyou area is just a small mess. There is no need for the Taishi to go out at all. You just need to order Huainan Jiangbei Province to solve it by yourself." Zuo Silang said to Ru Zhongbai.

Although neither he nor Hama agree with the detachment, their worries are different. Hama is afraid that after the detachment from the division, the military power will be in hand, and Ru Zhongbai is the best friend of detachment. He is afraid that if Emperor Yuanshun really agrees to let the detachment from the army, then Hama will be unfavorable to detachment. Now there is detachment in the court, Hamadu So presumptuous, if you take it outside, God knows what kind of moth Ha Ma will do to frame Tuo.

Although Hama is only an envoy of the Xuanzheng Yuan, the flattery is pure. He is good at flattering and secretly introduces the luck skills of the Pope of the Western Heavenly Monk. Tulu Timur, a scholar of Jixian University, is Hama's sister-in-law. He also recommends the Western Heavenly Sangha Phosphorus to teach the "playing" method, so that it can be cultivated into ** and induce the emperor's silver music. Tulu Timur and the old sand and other ten people were "leaning" and brought the life of the noble family and the good women of the neighborhood to the palace to provide for fun. The emperor and ministers, noble women and street women were all naked, regardless of shame and [***] to have fun. This scene is simply appropriate. The collective [***] in the industry on behalf of a certain country is very similar. The ugly sound is obscurity, and it is heard outside. However, Hama won the emperor's favor and made the emperor trust him. Even the master dared to contradict him face to face. The conflict between the two was extremely sharp.

Emperor Yuanshun looked at the detachment quietly. He was very confident in the administrative ability of detachment. However, since the collapse of the Yellow River and the flood, many ministers suggested that they should ignore it and let those Han people live and die by themselves. Only the prime minister was free from public discussion and vigorously repaired the Yellow River. As a result, the stone man provoked the Yellow River against the world with one eye! The country has plunged into turmoil.

Get rid of exhaustion, as if the fire captain, put out this place, and it rose again. Until now, it has been easy to win the battle, defeating Sesame Li and detering the bandits around him. Only then has it settled down a little. There are two effective forces, Chahan Timur and Li Siqi, and the situation in the north has finally settled down for the time being.

How to deal with the bandits of Gaoyou?

Emperor Yuanshun took a look at the right prime minister and the left prime minister who did not speak, and said, "Wuliang Hatai, Wugu Sun Liangzhen, what do you think of the two Qing family?"

The two looked at each other, and Youcheng Wuliang Hatai said, "Your Majesty, the master and the envoy of Xuanzhengyuan, Zuo Silangzhong's words make sense. Nowadays, in some places, it was originally disturbed by a few bandits. They all reported to the court that there were a large number of red scarf troops. Gaoyou has always been very stable. This time, it is not to be afraid. The law of Gaoyou Prefecture belongs to the north of the Huainan River, so the province is required to solve it by itself. Yangzhou, the capital of the province, is very close to Gaoyou Prefecture. They will definitely deal with it properly. There is no need for the imperial court to send troops, just urge it. You can also authorize the province to recruit them. These jumping clowns are just making a lot of noise and want to point gold and silver.

"Okay, then act according to Aiqing's opinion, and the Ministry of China will urge this matter. Can you do anything else important? All right, let's all return, Hama, accompany me to the harem." Emperor Yuanshun stood up from the dragon chair and walked back.

The plan to send troops to suppress it was stranded.

Take off your face and let the bandits develop. If this goes on, the situation of Gaoyou will soon become rotten. A small matter? Any small disturbance may turn into a big disturbance that shakes the Empire State Building!

With a flattering smile on his face, he went out of the side door next to him and followed the emperor.

The annihirate villains are all these shameless villains who deceive the emperor! I really want to smash the hemp into ten thousand pieces.

"Master." Zuo Silang Zhongru Zhongbai followed behind the detachment and walked out of the hall.

"Just now in the hall, why didn't you support me to send troops to fight against Gaoyou rebels?" He asked. He said.

"Master, open guns are easy to hide, and hidden arrows are difficult to prevent. With you, Hama dares to do this. If you leave, it is hard to guarantee that Hama will make any action." Ru Zhongbai said.

"What can he do?"

"I heard that he is very familiar with the queen and the prince. If the imperial master goes on an expedition, it is inevitable that he will hand over the power of the imperial court. At that time, it will also be a little slanderous. I'm afraid that the imperial master is also dangerous." Ru Zhongbai said. The last time he got out of the expedition, Hama had already slandered in the emperor's ear. It was just that he won the battle and returned triumphantly, which made the emperor calm down. If the war dragged on for a long time, Hama might make the emperor believe something, and it would be dangerous.

Hama? There has been a trace of murder in Tou's eyes. This numbness must be removed!

Follow the imperial road and get out of the imperial city from the star gate in the south. I got into the carriage, got rid of my eyebrows, and kept thinking about things. Over the years, I have boldly reformed and won the title of virtuous prime minister. However, the world has not been calmed, and there is turmoil everywhere. Why is this? The Yellow River broke out, and countless people were displaced. As the prime minister who cherishes the people, is it wrong to build the Yellow River?

I don't know that he is a doer, but he is also an idealist. He has always been in the upper position, has not conducted an investigation, and has overestimated the level of other officials. There are few incorruptible ministers like him looking at the whole Yuan Dynasty. The imperial court vigorously allocated a huge amount of money to build the Yellow River. Under the skin, there was no money in the hands of the lowest level of the people, and even the rations were not enough. The huge amount of money allocated by the imperial court went into the pockets of the officials, and the civil servants had to be hungry, do heavy physical labor, and be oppressed by the supervisors. With so many young and middle-aged workers, life is not as good as death. The only choice can only be to rise up.

In those years, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, because he missed the deadline, left and right were dead. It's better to reverse. On the contrary, there is still a way to live.

In essence, the common people always accept it and endure it silently. However, there is a premise that they can live. If they can't even guarantee the basic survival, then they can only choose a way of no return in order to survive.

"Dad, you're back!" A playful girl greeted her. I saw her charming and romantic, her eyebrows were like distant, her eyes were like autumn water, she was graceful, she was beautiful, her cherry mouth was small, and she was swallowed.

"Minmin, don't bother Dad." Take it off and say it. Totout has been promoting Han culture, so in his family, his daughter doesn't care about her name Abu, but likes to call her father.

Minmin pouted and was unhappy. Dad, they care about you. Why do you treat them like this?

"I've met the master." Another man came over and saw that the man's body was like an iron tower, his eyes were like copper bells, his face was dark, and he was a fierce general.

"It turned out to be an expansion. What's wrong? Can you get used to living here? He looked at the person in front of him, changed into a kind expression, and asked.

This person is the expansion of Timur. His surname is Wang, and his small character is Baobao, and he is called Wang Baobao. Shen Qiuren. His father is from the Central Plains, and his mother is Chahan Timur's sister. He is Chahan Timur's nephew, and later adopted by his uncle Chahan Timur. In recent years, bandits have emerged, and Chahan Timur has organized local armed forces. Like Li Siqi, they are the two powerful fists of the court against the Red Turban Army. After defeating Xuzhou and returning to the court, the court court asked for credit for the two people. However, because of the tight war, Chahan Timur sent Wang Baobao to see the emperor. Totuo intended to recruit, so he let Wang Baobao live in his house temporarily.

"Dad, my daughter has taken the eldest brother as her teacher and learned kung fu from him." Minmin said.

"Girls don't learn female workers at home. What kind of kung fu do you learn?" Take off your face and look unhappy.

"Dad, now the bandits are all over the place, and my daughter also wants to be a general who leads the war like Mulan. Just like my father, she kills the Red Turban Army." Minmin Timur looked at her Abu, shook his rough hand and said.

"Dad is already dizzy for the matter of the court. Go and play by yourself!" Take it off and say it.

"Master, the expansion has been here for several months, and I have been worried about Abu. I don't know if Liu Futong has been eliminated by Abu." Wang Baobao said that he was worried about Abu, but without the permission of the teacher, he could not leave without saying goodbye.

With a good idea, Chahan Timur has been attacking Linyi, which is very close to Gaoyou. It is only across Huai'an Road. The emperor does not pay attention to it, so he can only leave a backhand first.

"Expansion, the emperor has made you a doctor of Zhongshun and a Dalu Huachi of Runingfu. You can also return to the army. After you go back, pay attention to the movement of Gaoyoufu."

"Yes, Master!" The master finally agreed to let himself go back. Timur was very happy. He came to most of the capital and lived a comfortable life for a few months, but did not wear out his sharpness. He was eager to kill the enemy on the battlefield, which was his stage.
