Chapter 57 The storm is about to come
Cui Xiyi's confident words made Pei Min's favorite student.
He smiled and said, "Hexi is in chaos and needs to be rectified. I have never received any good news to be happy these days. After hearing what Governor Cui said today, I instantly realized that God is still treating me well. In addition to giving me a great test, I also gave me a good person like Governor Cui. I knew that not all literati were shameless people like Yang Jingshu, and I really met me."
Cui Xiyi's attitude towards Pei Min is not surprising.
Rumors stop at the wise, and this statement is fully reflected.
Because of his literary talent and elegance, Yang Jingshu is unique in Liangzhou and has a very high prestige among the Liangzhou Shilin.
Pei Min's disposal of Yang Jingshu with such a big fanfare has aroused many people's dissatisfaction.
There was a lot of discussion behind this, and it was spread around, and it turned out that Pei Min looked down on the literati who turned his pen and joined the army, thinking that they were all people talking about the war on paper.
Many people believe this nonsense.
Cui Xiyi is not among the list. Yang Jingshu deserves it, and Pei Min's execution of him was a very pleasing move, which led to many speculations that it shouldn't have been supposed to be.
What's more, Pei Min himself is a literati. He abandoned his civil servant and was transferred from a civil servant to a military position. How could he dislike himself in this way?
For some reason, he knew that Pei Min transferred him to Xizhou because Xizhou needed him, rather than throwing him into a mess and putting his shoes on him.
"Pei Shuai is too rewarded! Compared with Pei Shuai's civil and military affairs, his subordinates are just a little bit of fireflies!" Cui Xiyi said with a bit of humility. Literature flattered him, and he was much better than Li Yide's big and rough voice.
Pei Min smiled and said, "Don't flatter me. If you can't do it well, be careful about your future. I am an impatient person and don't like to delay things. If you have any problems, you can explain to me now. If you can support me, I will try my best to do it. In short, I will use the shortest time to solve the problems faced by Xizhou and Shazhou."
Cui Xiyi also sat upright and said seriously: "I have a certain understanding of Xizhou! Cao Yingjie is talking about the fact that the horse thieves who robbed Xizhou are essentially different from ordinary horse thieves. Ninety percent of them are disguised by the grassland tribe, but they just don't know who they are. Cao Yingjie is also a character, which is very different from Su Wu."
"I know!" Pei Min nodded and said, "But you don't have to speak for him. In the Four Books, Mencius, there is a famous saying in the "Four Books" that "the unkind is in a high position, which is to spread the evils of the masses." This sentence can be changed to "the untalented is in a high position, which is to spread the sins of the masses." It is true that Cao Yingjie has the intention to protect the people, but he has been in power for three years, defeated bandits six times, and lost troops and generals, which even encouraged the bandits' arrogance. He is a good wanderer, but not a good governor. If he becomes the "charlatan Cao Dalang" that everyone appreciates in the future, he is lucky to meet again, and may discuss martial arts with him and talk about the affairs of the rivers and lakes."
Cui Xiyi also knew that what Pei Min said was the truth, but Cui Xiyi valued virtue and believed that virtue was better than tricks. Pei Min handled a virtuous person in the same way as Su Wu, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
But he was uncomfortable, but he didn't say anything about this, and he continued: "Shippe Pei is famous and powerful. You must know the grassland tribes. They are worried that after Pei Zhuang gained a foothold in Hexi, they will never get any more convenience. The subordinates estimate that it will not take long before Xizhou will encounter bandits again. They will take advantage of the fact that Pei Zhuang has not yet established a foothold. The soldiers and generals of Xizhou are not familiar with me. It is best to rotate the Jiankang Army in Suzhou and Tianshan Army in Xizhou. With the Jiankang Army in hand, the subordinates can resist the first wave of offensives. As long as they have this first wave, their subordinates will have time to repair the defense line and rectify the military affairs of Xizhou."
"Resist? Has been taken?"
Pei Min frowned and said, "I don't like to hear what you said. I have only one attitude towards the bandits. I can kill as much as I can, and I can destroy as much as I can. What I want to hear is that annihilation is to destroy, rather than like a turtle, forcing the other party back is to win."
"Victory is not that cheap."
"I also know that the Xizhou Army is not enough to have this. I will give you a helper. Xia Shan and her light cavalry will be transferred to Liangzhou. I will lend you to use it first. Remember, in future reports, I don't want to see the words "retreat" and "retreat". What I want to see is the actual number of enemies killed."
"I understand!" Cui Xiyi said with a look of expression, and once again realized Pei Min's military strength. He couldn't help but say in his heart: "Maybe it is the courage to fight and fight that he has such a brilliant record."
Thinking of the chaos in Hexi, Cui Xiyi suddenly felt that maybe the young governor in front of him could really change the situation here.
Pei Min stretched out a big lazily and said, "It's okay, you go back to Suzhou to clean up and take the post immediately. Make preparations earlier and have more chances of winning. I look forward to your battle in Xizhou..."
Cui Xiyi took the order and retreated, stepped out of the threshold, took it back, and turned around and said, "Supervisor Pei, the situation in Hexi is very different because of Longyou. In the past, the governor was the superior in all places. The Tianshan Army in Xizhou, the Yiwu Army in Yizhou, the Yumen Army in Shazhou, and the Moli Army in Guazhou, their military commanders were all promoted by the governor himself. In their eyes, there was only the governor but not the governor. Your '17 Forbidden Laws and Fifty-Four Deads' may not be implemented."
Pei Min heard this advice and knew that Cui Xiyi was already standing on his side. He smiled calmly: "Don't worry about this, and I'm not afraid to reveal it to you. I'm ready to change the Hexi Army. The more they are chaotic they are, the more I like it."
He stretched out his big hand, grabbed it in the air, and said, "They can't turn out the palm of my hand..."
When Cui Xiyi heard this, he knew that he had no need to say anything and left the Governor's Office.
When Cui Xiyi left the gate of the Governor's Office, he saw that all the five people who had the meeting together gathered.
Except for the former governor of Xizhou Cao Yingjie, all five were there, and even Su Wu, who was no longer the governor of Shazhou, was among them.
Originally, they were extremely repulsive of Cui Xiyi, but now they are extremely enthusiastic.
In front of Governor Cui and behind Governor Cui, the call was particularly intimate.
They all wanted to know what Pei Min had to leave him alone.
Especially Su Wu, he was even more eager to know if there was room for maneuver.
Looking at the people who were shocked by Pei Min's Thundering's methods, Cui Xiyi also said with anger, "What else can be done? Pei Shuai looked down on us literati the most. I was fine in Suzhou, but I transferred me to Xizhou to take over the mess left by Governor Cao Cao. What do you think is this?"
