Chapter 412: Cleaning the Storm

(As usual, thank you Dameng! I also met several familiar faces on the fan list, all of whom were rewarded or monthly tickets to support me. I was very happy.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When King Hua was newly married, he was assassinated, and the assassin turned out to be King Xin Zhao Zhen!

This explosive news triggered an earthquake in Chang'an and even the Tianshu forces.

The assassination of the king often indicates a political conspiracy, and the bankruptcy of the conspiracy will also indicate that there will be a major purge next.

When everyone was in panic, King Hua took action indeed.

However, unlike the white horror scenes that everyone imagined were closed, searching for, locking, and crying, and crying in the city, the search operation was very low-key and restrained.

Wuling Simou, the envoy of the Jin Kingdom who was on a mission to Chang'an, personally experienced the political turmoil between the Tianshu forces and recorded the entire process he witnessed. After returning to China, he handed over to the king of state to participate in the matter. In this article,

In the semi-diary article in Tianshu Lun, Wuling Simou describes what he saw and heard in detail:

"... I suddenly saw several secret agents from Tianshu Secret Bureau, leading more than ten yamen runners in Wannian County (Chang'anzhi County) to drive the van to an official's residence. Go to the lobby, proclaim the crime, and convict the name of the rebellion. The official was convicted and removed from the official.

He was dressed in plain clothes and left with his family. He was not shackled, so he asked him to enter the van and took him away. The family wept, and the neighbors asked him, saying that there was no injustice..."

"...This search will last for five days and stop, moving like thunder, collecting like rain, with extremely clear goals, and almost no random hunting or killing. It shows that King Hua was loyal to his subordinates before he was assassinated, and he was as if he was clearly aware of the fire.

The most important thing to make people beat is the arrest method, gentle and politeness, which has won the essence of the ancients' "punishment cannot be given to the doctor". The criminals and their families did not make extreme moves, so they cooperated with each other.

It is a practice to teach our dynasty..."

As Wuling Simou saw, Di Lie demonstrated for the first time the civilized law enforcement concept drawn from later generations.

From the overall perspective, the Tianshu power is in a thriving turning point. At this time, it is not advisable to hunt down a large number of people because of an attempted assassination incident, causing storms and panic in the city, and the good situation will be ruined.

Personally, the act of completely trampling on personality, such as locking and shackles, tied to a cage, patrolling the streets and showing public orders is an insult to these former Tianshu officials. Isn’t it also an insult to Di Lie, the supreme leader of Tianshu?

To put it bluntly. These royal officials are just political prisoners, not vicious people, and there is no need to wear shackles and lock them up. In a relatively civilized way, please enter the closed van to protect their faces and go straight to the jail of the state capital. In this way,

Regardless of whether the arrested officials feel wronged or not, they will not develop strong confrontational feelings, laying a good foundation for the next interrogation.

After the assassination, Di Lie quickly investigated that this was Zhao Zhen's personal behavior, so it is not appropriate to crack down on expansion. Currently, only a few officers from the Five Horse Division who have had a lot of contact with Zhao Zhen. It is unknown whether they are involved in this matter.

, but just because of their closeness to Zhao Zhen, they must be taken down and removed from the military, just in case.

As early as the second year of Jianyan, when the imperial seal incident occurred, many royal families and officials jumped out, believing that the jade seal should be returned to Jianyan Dynasty. As a result, Di Lie was very passive and kept hiding the jade seals afterwards.

He didn't dare to use it. Since then, the Bureau of Secretariat began to set up a blacklist, and A Shu was responsible for it and set up evaluation levels for civil and military officials and royal families.

This star rating was formulated by Di Lie himself, divided into five levels, from five stars to one star: five stars are the most loyal, four stars are also reliable, three stars are considered neutral, two stars are below, and have ulterior motives, so they are put on the blacklist.

The method of star rating is that A Shu uses secret agents from the Secret Service to collect a large number of words and actions of civil and military officials and royal families through means such as bribery, use, and surveillance, and collect materials, and then conduct preliminary review and evaluation. After that, the preliminary review and evaluation will be attached.

The selected materials on the list will be submitted to Di Lie for final review. Finally, Di Lie will determine the final star rating of each general and official.

In this way, Di Lie is aware of the loyalty of all civil and military officials and generals in the Tianshu power, as well as his personal knowledge and ability, and based on this, he is used as an important indicator and parameter when appointing and removing officials and promoting military generals. This ensures that

In important positions of the Tianshu power, they are mostly reliable generals who are loyal and capable to Di Lie.

This star rating is the highest secret. If a Tianshu force is greater, only Di Lie, A Shu and the Secret Service are only responsible for the preliminary review.

In this evaluation system, more than 90% of the generals of the Tianzhu Army were evaluated by five-stars, including Zhao Yan; Zhao Neng was four-star; Zhao Bangjie was originally three-star, but recently rose to four-star; the rest of Yue Fei, Wang Gui, and Xu

Qing, Guan Sheng, Zhe Yanwen, Zhang Yong, Ding Jin and others also rose from three stars to four stars. The generals of the Western Army, Jinning Army, Zhejia Army, Shaanxi Army, and Wangwu Mountain Village were also officially included in the evaluation.

.

In terms of civil officials, they are much inferior to military generals. Less than half of them get five stars, and most of them are early followers, such as Zhang Jiao, Hou Fangjing, Liu Erping, Wang Youzhi and the group of masters of the Military Industry Department; there are also many four stars, Chen Gui, and Ma.

Zhao Wei is all of this type; the most three stars are, among the Tianshu forces, such officials and royal families are the mainstream. Di Lie is strong, so they will naturally be obedient; if Di Lie falls, they will also turn to the new forces with the wind.

Officials are the focus of this cleaning.

The royal family and officials who were rated as two stars have more or less expressed their disagreement with Di Lie and Tianshu forces in public or private; the royal family and officials who were rated as one star have even blatantly accused Di Lie of "

He looked down on the king and strongly opposed Di Lie's title of king.

Among the royal family members, Zhao Xu, Zhao Jing, Zhao Gong of Yong'an County, Zhao Gong of Xiang Cheng Bo, and Zhao Gong of this category; Zhao Zhen, the king of Xin, is even one-star figure. These people are all under the key monitoring of the Secret Service.

Character. When Zhao Zhen was active in the palace, the spies were unable to enter the surveillance, so they were unable to grasp his whereabouts. Zhao Zhen was monitored for nearly a year, and no matter how stupid he was, he could detect it. Therefore, he suddenly attacked on the night of the operation and was with the servants.

Let's knock down the spy who monitored him.

Due to Di Lie's wedding, more than 70% of civil and military officials and generals in the Tianshu power gathered in Chang'an City, which caused the workload of the Secret Bureau to increase sharply. The staff was short of people and lost one another. As a result, the Secret Bureau discovered that the secret agent was missing, so it was a good idea to pay attention to the secret agent.

When I found the corpse of the secret agent, it was too late...

In August, Di Lie issued a ban on returning to the Southern Dynasties freely. Most of the royal families and officials below two stars, including some three-star officials, chose to leave Tianshu and return to the south. But no matter what era, there was always such a

People - don't agree with your ideas, don't recognize you as your boss, but can't bear to leave your job. They should not leave, and they keep talking strange things, and eventually become rat shit in a pot of good soup.

Di Lie gave A Shu very clear order: not to expand, not to implicate, not to be indifferent, not to be polite, be polite and polite, and take the rat shit below two stars in one go. Just right. Most people on the list are gathered in Chang'an to congratulate him. No need to shi

Riding out all over the place, just grab the person.

This group of guys who are on the blacklist, that shit without a single spoil? In the archives of the Secret Bureau, you can easily draw a bunch of crimes that have attacked Di Lie himself and Tianshu City. But the Song Dynasty has never been

He was convicted for his words. The Tianshu forces also value freedom of speech and lacked a suitable license, so it was not convenient to do anything.

Now, the incident of Zhao Zhenzhan is becoming the best guru to clean up Tianshu's political arena.

First, start with the two-star royal family and officials related to King Xin. All the words that were dissatisfied with Di Lie on weekdays became evidence of resentment and indiscriminate planning. The evidence of the crime was handed over, which caused great tremendous connection between Empress Yuansheng and the military.

The government and the people were angry and demanded severe punishment.

The Secret Bureau struck while the iron was hot, constantly expanding the scope, and the network tightened and tightened. It included all the officials of the royal family below two stars one by one, and caught them in one go. In just five days, Di Lie completed the "big cleaning" requested. The most rare thing is,

It did not cause great turmoil in the court and the army, and even Chang'an City was not martial law, and the people's lives were as usual and were not affected.

In any dynasty in the past, nearly a hundred officials were arrested in the city like this, which had already caused storms and storms in the city, and the viewers were tide and people were panicked. The humanized arrest actions taken by Di Lie reduced this negative impact to

At the lowest point, the action is over, and people's hearts are still at peace.

The reason why such remarkable results were achieved was that in addition to the complete information of the Secret Bureau and the conclusive evidence, ensuring the accuracy and immediate arrest, more importantly, Di Lie, as a latecomer, had too many historical experiences and lessons to learn from -

After three hundred years, the factory guards will be harmed by hawks and dogs; after another eight hundred years, the wind will be hurt. These are profound lessons and must be wary enough.

Although the Secret Bureau is easy to use, it is a double-edged sword. During wartime, it cannot be used; in peacetime, it must be used carefully to avoid hurting others and oneself. Therefore, Di Lie never granted the Secret Bureau the law enforcement power.

In other words, the secret spies of the Secret Bureau only have the right to investigate and have no law enforcement. If they want to enforce the law, there are only two ways: secret law enforcement, Di Lie must personally sign the order. If Di Lie is not in the imperial capital, Zhang Jiao and A Shu will be jointly named.

If the law is signed; if the law is enforced publicly, the Chang'an prefecture and county government offices are asked to cooperate and dispatch the yamen runners.

Such a large-scale search was the result of the joint action of the Bureau of Secretariat and the various government offices of Chang'an Prefecture and County.

Strike a group, shock a group, do not expand or implicate it - it is equivalent to putting the sharp sword of the Secret Bureau on sheath to prevent random slashing and stabbing. While cutting off the rotten meat, it also hurts the good flesh.

Judging from the results, the action was very successful and Di Lie was quite satisfied.

The civil servants of the royal family handled them very quickly and quickly, but those involved in the army must be cautious.

In early November, two envoys with special missions set off from Chang'an to the Five Horse Division headquarters stationed in Yan'an Prefecture, and the Fifth Reorganized Division headquarters stationed in Lintong.

Two days later, Zhao Neng, the commander of the 14th Mixed Brigade of the Fifth Reorganized Division, and the General of the Cycling and Cavalry, Xiangtian because his family is old and it is difficult to get medicine. As a son, he should do his best to be filial to the bed.

The military headquarters submitted its resignation.

In mid-November, the commander of the Five Horse Division and General Zhao Bangjie, submitted his resignation to the Tianzhu Army on the grounds that his old creation was relapsed and he was unable to command the army.

Di Lie approved all the approval and signed an order to transfer the two generals to the General Staff of the Tianzhu Army together and serve as deputy chief of staff respectively. Only Ling Yuan had served this position before, and both Zhao Bangjie and Zhao Neng were considered high-profile.

It's just that I no longer hold military power.

Di Lie believes that the two people have no connection with Zhao Zhen's affairs, but within the framework of power, there is no absolute trust, only relative checks and balances. Only when the two generals hand over the power can the military, including Di Lie, be eliminated.

The knot in the heart - it is not that you suspect that you have this mind, but because you have the ability to have this mind.

On the same day, Wang Zhongzhi, deputy commander of the White Horse Division, was transferred to serve as the commander of the Five Horse Division. Wang Zhongzhi is a five-star general, loyal and worry-free. At the same time, he is from Taihang Mountain Village. He comes from the same source as the Five Horse Division and is easily accepted by the Five Horse Division soldiers.

Wang Zhongzhi's former reputation in Taihang Mountains was not inferior to Zhao Bangjie, and his prestige was enough to suppress the elderly of the Five Horse Division. The middle-level officers of the Five Horse Division were basically monopolized by the first-year graduates of the Taiyuan Military Academy. The top and bottom worked together, the original Five

The old people in Mashan Village have become sandwich layers and can't jump up any longer.

As for the 14th Mixed Brigade, it was Di Lie's direct troops. There was no mountain doctrine, and the brigade commander's exchange would not cause any trouble at all.

By the end of November, the spies had received the return, and the morale of the 5th Horse Division and the 14th Mixed Brigade was stable. At this point, the military's problems were also successfully resolved.

Subsequently, within the Tianshu power, Zhao Jian, the last prince of the Song Dynasty, also requested to be dismissed, but was rejected by Di Lie - only a hundred people, it is difficult to achieve anything. He is more than him, and he is less than him, so he is less.

In the army, it can also have good political significance for uniting with the royal family of the previous dynasty.

Yue Yun also made a request for punishment, but was also rejected by Di Lie, but his identity as a guard was removed and he was demoted to the First Reorganization Division as an ordinary soldier. This future general, Xu Sui is 14 years old, and it is time for him to use it.

The swords and guns in my hand have been fighting for my own fame and fortune.

A major political event that was originally enough to cause a shocking wave was resolved by Di Lie's quick knife. He also took the opportunity to attack, turn bad things into good things, cleanse the court, cleanse and clean up, and finally eliminate the aliens in the Tianshu power.
