Chapter 1342
"Since Yan Qing and Xu Bin have come to take charge in person, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry too much. The Taiping Cult now may be able to mix a pot of water, but it is almost impossible to turn the waves into pieces. Besides, we have Xu Bin, an expert, who is also aware of the Taiping Cult. Maybe we can catch a few big fish." Xiao Tang intended to ease the gloomy atmosphere and change the topic.
"Xiao Tang, don't put too high expectations on Xu Bin. Although he was from Taiping Cult and served as the Grand Master, his focus at that time was not on the affairs of Taiping Cult, but on the military. Of course, as the Grand Master, he must have known a lot of inside information at the top, but as far as I know, Taiping Cult has always been responsible for the affairs of You Daofang, and even Xu Bin and Lan Bailin rarely care about it. Taiping Cult is very naive in military and political terms, but in the system of preaching and teaching the Dao, that is, in
The development of academic affairs is quite cautious and solid, otherwise it would be difficult to cause such a big storm in a short period of time. It’s a pity that they lack talents, and the few talents You Daofang cannot use them as much as possible. In addition, the middle and upper-class people have short-sighted eyes and poor quality, which led to the rapid destruction of the Taiping Cult. However, the destruction of the military power of the Taiping Cult did not cause much harm to their grassroots network. In addition to the destruction of military power, other religious organizations in the Taiping Cult are still well preserved."
"I only looked back and reviewed some of our previous measures after receiving reports from Pinglu and Yulin. I felt that we were a little careless at the time and believed that the Taiping Cult military power had collapsed, so the Taiping Cult naturally disappeared. We ignored one thing: Taiping Cult is not a simple regime organization, but a mixture of strong religious colors and armed with religious organization structures. To completely destroy this deep-rooted force, it is difficult to cure it by force alone. It requires multiple means, especially to be excavated from an economic basis to achieve results."
"Then your Majesty thinks that in addition to letting the internal affairs department and the Imperial Security Bureau intervene, can we also take some economic measures? For example, increase in physical relief in the impoverished areas of the three northern counties, or increase investment in infrastructure in the three northern counties with labor-for-relief, and strengthen supervision of financial departments in these areas to prevent funds from flowing into the hands of these rebels." Xiao Tang thought about Wufeng's meaning and put forward his own ideas.
"Well, you can arrange it and let the financial department and the central bank give a certain degree of tilt to the three northern counties. This is the fundamental solution. The first thing we need to solve is what has been exposed now." Wufeng nodded. There are too many places in various places that need funds, and the imperial finance is already a little overwhelmed. Tian Yi also twice hinted that he needs to be cautious in spending, otherwise once a fiscal crisis occurs, it will bring a chain reaction.
It seemed that even the sky felt the murderous atmosphere in Pinglu Mansion City became much gloomy. The streets were in a hurry, and the early spring sunshine disappeared. The more wind, sand and cold spring made the city look particularly desolate and cold. Yan Qing had been in Pinglu Mansion City for a few days. Before entering Pinglu, Yan Qing let all the people who followed him into Beiyuan sneak into Pinglu Mansion in disguise and sneak into Pinglu Mansion separately. He first connected the lines set up by the internal affairs department in various places to understand the general situation. Taiping Cult does have a good foundation in this area, and the barren and poor mountains are a good place for Taiping Cult forces to occupy. However, the internal affairs department is not a vegetarian. Yan Qing believes that it will take long to catch up some real situations.
He was quite dissatisfied with Yan Qing, the new city guard of Pinglu Mansion. He also knew that with the appointment of the Governor of Beiyuan, a large number of so-called economic officials were flooding the Beiyuan officialdom. Most of these guys came from the Jiangnan and Donghai areas and did not have a very good understanding of the actual situation in Beiyuan. Understanding requires a process, and developing the economy requires more time. Taiping scholars do not seem to want to give these officials the opportunity to adapt to familiarity.
Although the sentence "Pinglu Bupinggou Three Thousands" cannot completely reflect the geographical terrain of Pinglu Mansion, it can also portray the broken and complex geographical environment in Pinglu, and the harsh natural environment has also created Pinglu's tough folk customs. Yan Qing took office as Anyuan City and once came to Pinglu for time. He also knew that Taiping Cult has a soil space to survive in these areas.
As soon as Yan Qing arrived at Pinglu Mansion, there was a conflict with local officials in Pinglu. Yan Qing asked the police and patrol posts of the towns under Pinglu Mansion to take action immediately to restrict the movement of people in the jurisdiction. All idle people who had gone out of villages and households without proper reasons were arrested and detained for investigation. He also asked the security wing to immediately send two brigades to divide Pinglu into two areas in the east and west for intimidation training, and disperse the riots that had been lingering over Pinglu Mansion. As the secret condemnation team of the internal affairs department entered, the situation in Pinglu, which was once a little out of control, was quickly controlled.
However, this also led to the intensification of conflicts between local officials headed by Pinglu City and the Imperial Ministry of Interior. Local officials believed that the large-scale curfews and measures to restrict the movement of people adopted by the internal affairs department in Pinglu had seriously affected the economic development momentum that the Pinglu Mansion had just been launched, and the construction of infrastructure had to be terminated. The arrests and detentions beyond the scope also made the local gentry angry. The joint letters of the gentry had already filled the city guard's desks and were even sent to the Governor's Office in Anyuan.
However, Yan Qing was not moved. The development of Pinglu's local economy has nothing to do with his own tasks. His task is to quickly stabilize the situation in Pinglu and to dig deep into the potential disasters that Pinglu has now. But Yan Qing knew that the contest with the remnants of Taiping Cult is a long-term and arduous task. With the soil that breeds this kind of thought, it is unlikely to eradicate these hidden dangers. Even if Pinglu's economy is developed, these Mars will still exist for a long time. What he needs to do now is to do everything possible to secretly set a long line after controlling the situation, fishing big fish, and preparing for the long-term competition. In the open, it is like combing his hair, filtering one by one, choosing some people who show their heads to kill and warn the people.
Yan Qing was quite satisfied with the special operation team he had personally formed. These people were divided into two parts. Some were elites drawn from local internal departments. They were familiar with local situations, were proficient in investigation and investigation, were good at tracking and interrogation, had comprehensive skills and outstanding abilities. The other part was mostly from outstanding people in the martial arts sects of the imperial world. Most of these people had a skill and were very skilled in martial arts, especially suitable for secret arrest, sniper and tracking.
Although the Ministry of Interior has a department under the State Council, it does not have the status of the Imperial National Security Agency and the Imperial Security Agency on the surface, and its power does not seem to be as strong as those two directly under the Imperial Bureau, the Imperial Ministry of Interior has an advantage that neither of them can match, that is, the Imperial Ministry of Interior not only governs the internal affairs offices of the Imperial governments, but also the Imperial Imperial Police Bureau. In other words, the police in the entire Imperial territory are under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Ministry of Interior. The open and secret internal forces gather together to cover every corner of the entire Imperial territory, and the intelligence network is even more spread across the Imperial industries. This huge advantage cannot be compared with any department. The Imperial Ministry of Interior can use this resource to compete with the two major secret agencies of the Imperial Bureau without any disadvantage at all.
The Ministry of Interior's Special Operations Team was also very powerful in this operation. In addition to cooperating with the special police forces to carry out some open actions, the Special Operations Team also attacked separately and destroyed two important secret nests of the Taiping Cult. The method of thunder sweeping the cave allowed the Taiping Cult to fully witness the fierceness and ruthlessness of the imperial internal affairs department, so that the Imperial Supervision Bureau could not find any evidence when it launched an investigation after receiving civil complaints. Although the Imperial Supervision Bureau was suspected of neglecting its duties, it was enough to prove the strength of this force.
Compared with the Ministry of Interior's decisive behavior in Pinglu Mansion, the Imperial Security Bureau seemed to be calm in Yulin. The appearance of the mysterious figure Xu Bin has always been a mystery for the senior officials of the Empire's political circles. Apart from the few senior officials such as Xiao Tang and Ling Tianfang, I am afraid that it is someone who has a direct connection with Xu Bin's appointment as the Imperial Security Bureau. Where did this person come from and why did he directly form the Imperial Security Bureau called "Imperial Scissors" without any warning. He was powerful for a while, but
No one knew his origin. After Xu Bin became the director of the Imperial Security Bureau, he seemed to be extremely low-key, even rarer than Diao Su, the elusive Imperial National Security Director. Even the dynasty did not see the appearance of the leader of the four directly affiliated institutions several times, so many unknown people even doubted whether this person really existed, whether it was His Majesty the Emperor who intended to use such an unknown name as a code name instead of the head of the Imperial Security Bureau. In fact, this person did not exist.
