Chapter 59: Monkey Play
"What do you have to say?" ”
"Lan Ben is not talented, he is trusted by the lord to serve as a military leader, and is responsible for rectifying military discipline. Don't dare to slack off, send orders to all armies, and affirm military discipline. However, the defenders of Taiyuan regarded military discipline as nothing, relied on force, and did many evil things, like bandits. Lan wanted to march to discipline, but his commander did many acts of cover-up, so that the discipline of the main public army was empty. Lan is brave and asks the lord to severely punish the officers who break the law to show military discipline. After Xiahou Lan said this, the scribes didn't know who they were before, and they were at a loss, but the generals caused an uproar.
Because most of the military generals in Bingzhou guarded the field, the only captains who could rush to the banquet were Guo Cheng and Hu Sheng, and several other captains were sent out to guard the town, and there were a lot of lieutenants below the captains, including Guo Cheng and Hu Sheng's subordinates, those under the direct jurisdiction of Yun, and other generals. At the beginning, Yun went out of the state, and then Xiahou Lan came back with hundreds of handwritten letters from Xiangyong and Yun, and became the chief military judge in charge of the state and the 70,000 army. Of course, Yun didn't raise Xiahoulan to a high position all of a sudden. The military judges in the army are not high, the military judges in each army are only 300 stones, and Xiahou Lan is only 600 stones for the general army, but he can monitor and report the captains of a thousand stones, just like Yun is 600 stones but can control and merge states, which is a means of power checks and balances by restricting high levels at a low level.
The military law of the Han army was not strict, and the people of the state were fierce, there were many wars, and the casualties were replaced quickly, so the military discipline was scattered. Yun first entered Shuofang and established the Shuofang Army, in order to build an iron army like the People's Liberation Army in his memory, Yun didn't know how much effort he wasted, how much energy he painted, and exhausted all methods, but in the end, it didn't succeed. No matter what method Yun used, he could not make an army of the Han Dynasty transcend the limitations of the times and become an army with a soul, faith, and the whole army is forbidden, and a thousand armies are like one person. It's not that the clouds are incompetent, it's not that the mud of the soldiers can't hold up the wall, but that an era can only walk at the pace of an era. At this time, the national consciousness and the national consciousness had not been formed, and the country had not experienced the unique environment of the period before the founding of the People's Republic of China. It can only be said that one side of the water and soil supports one side of the people.
But after the ruthless training under the clouds, the military discipline of the Shuofang army has also made a qualitative leap, and the Yafu Xiliu battalion is nothing more than that, the soldiers only obey the orders of the commander in wartime, even if they are swords and mountains and fires, they regard death as home. Of course, the cloud can make the wolf nature of the nomads in the bones and the state soldiers do this, and the effective distribution of land and the establishment of a strict reward and punishment system are the magic weapons of the cloud. But this can also be tightly in Shuofang, because in Shuofang, Shiyun only has 7,000 troops, and there are still a small half of them who do not have this kind of treatment. And after controlling the entire Bingzhou army, the army in Yun's hands is 70,000, and today, in addition to the Xiliang army, there is a prince who can hold the land of a state, with tens of thousands of people and horses? The 70,000 people who drooled that other princes were envious of were the source of the cloud headache, and the state was sparsely populated, although because of the relationship between the clouds, it was not infringed by the Huns, but it was still sparsely populated, and the population was registered some time ago, and the population that could pay taxes was only 210,000 households, only 1030,000, of course, Gu Tianxu estimated that the hidden population of the family family was 500,000. That is to say, on average, there are not more than 14 people, and there is one soldier. Don't think it's easy, the land is barren, farming is difficult, and Yun's soldiers are treated better than other princes, so the pressure on the people is very heavy. In this case, the family still occupies a large amount of land and hides the population, so how can it not let the clouds become big.
It is a mistake to say that because of the particularity of the Bingzhou Army, the military discipline of the Bingzhou Army is not very good, except for one-tenth of the Shuofang Army, which is better. Therefore, the difficulties of the work of military judges can be imagined, originally other military judges did not cause much trouble for the army's violation of military discipline, and basically turned a blind eye, but after Xia Houlan came, this situation was changed, young and vigorous, since Xia Houlan, who was valued by the lord, did not wait for Yun to come back, he began to act with great fanfare.
He first sent people from all sides to spread the word that the new army was coming, and all the armies should strictly observe military discipline, and that all mistakes made in the past would not be investigated, but if they dared to make mistakes from now on, they would be dealt with by military law. But the military discipline of the Bingzhou Army has been loose for a long time, and Ding Yuan and his ilk have not been in charge of it in the past, and Yun has not controlled the state for a short time, and he has not managed it, so Xiahoulan's solemn warning has been regarded as a fart, and the soldiers everywhere have been doing their own thing for a long time.
After letting go, Xia Houlan knew that she needed to grasp a few examples to establish her authority and prove her ability to the lord. He also lived in Jinyang City with Changshan Xiangyong, and the army close to Jinyang City was Guo Cheng and Hu Sheng's troops in addition to the Shiqu people directly under Yun. The army directly under the jurisdiction of Yun is all from the original Shuofang army, and the discipline is not bad. Most of Guo Cheng and Hu Sheng's troops are family generals, and these generals are less than one layer of real talent, and the rest are just family positions in order to control military power. The forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and some of the sons of the family have outstanding talents and high moral character, but there are also many gentlemen, and the generals in the army naturally have them, so they were targeted by Xiahoulan.
It's a pity that Xia Houlan couldn't catch their current situation, but only had the evidence. But after mastering the absolute evidence, Xia Houlan went directly to arrest people.
went to Guo Cheng's camp, but he didn't find it, and when he asked Guo Cheng, he was prevaricated by this old fox.
Go to Hu Sheng's camp again, although a few people escaped, they still caught a few, and Xia Houlan imprisoned these people in the military department. Then, it was robbed. Dressed in black and masked, they were highly skilled, skilled in martial arts, and knowledgeable about the terrain. Dozens of sergeants in the military department couldn't stop them, and they robbed them.
This incident was known everywhere, and Xia Houlan's face was beaten. Then there was no more, Xia Houlan seemed to be frightened and honest, and she was silent all the time, not even taking a step out of the gate of the military department. Those who started behind their backs secretly despised it, and they didn't want Xiahoulan to suddenly come to such a hand and complain like a cloud at the banquet.
The faces of those involved were not good, but they also secretly thought in their hearts that this kid was just saying that the lord still wanted to entrap me and the state family, and it should be no big deal.
After listening to Xiahou Lan's narration, Yun smiled and said, "Ziyou is derelict in his duties. ”
Xiahou Lan was ashamed and fell to the ground, "Lan is ashamed of the trust of the lord." ”
Yun smiled and asked him to get up, "Ziyou said that there are many generals in Guo Cheng and Hu Sheng's army who have violated military law, tell me." ”
Xiahoulan said loudly about these criminal generals, including those who seized the people's women, those who killed good and impostors, those who bought and sold military positions, and those who robbed big families by pretending to be bandits, all kinds of crimes, big and small, all kinds of things, Xia Houlan said in detail one by one, Xia Houlan has only been in Bingzhou for three or four months, so naturally he can't get such clear information, and most of these are the credit of Jinyiwei's secret assistance. Hearing this, everyone was furious, Guo Cheng and Hu Sheng were pale, even if they couldn't find those people, their subordinates had so many sins, and a royal subordinate who was not strict and connived at his subordinates couldn't take off their hats.
After Xiahoulan finished talking about everyone's crimes, without waiting for the gloomy cloud to speak, Hu Sheng stood up and glared at Xiahoulan angrily: "Jizhou Xiao'er, how can you talk nonsense in front of the lord, you slander me for harboring the wrong generals in the army and robbing them, but there is evidence!" After scolding Xiahoulan, he fell to the ground and cried, "Lord, the generals and soldiers of our army have strict discipline, and there can never be anyone who does not respect military discipline. ”
Hu Sheng was old and confused, anxious to muddy things, but he didn't think about how many people he offended and how many flaws he exposed with a few words. Guo Cheng on the side was already angry with his stupidity.
was amused by this stupid old man, and said: "General Hu, you said that I should distinguish between right and wrong, do you mean that I don't distinguish between right and wrong?" ”
Hu Sheng's face turned pale, "The minister has no such intention." ”
"In addition, Ziyou didn't say that you shielded the erring generals and robbed them from the army, did you not admit yourself?" Yun looked at Hu Sheng, the gentle smile on his face had long since disappeared, and with his face, a cold aura spread in the hall, making everyone present feel like falling into an ice cave, reminding them that at any time, they should not forget that Yun is a murderous enemy.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty,"
Yun said to Dian Wei, who was standing on the side: "Junming, help General Hu up, the ground is cold." He said to Tian Xu again: "Bring me the criminal officer mentioned by Ziyou." ”
Tian Xu took the order and retreated. Dian Wei stepped over, mentioned Hu Sheng, and pressed on his seat, Dian Wei was the top military general in the world, and he had a divine power to pull out the mountain, Hu Sheng couldn't resist at all.
After a quarter of an hour in the lobby in a depressing atmosphere, more than a dozen law-breaking officers were escorted in by brocade guards wearing flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives.
Guo Cheng Husheng saw these people, his face turned a little pale, some of these people were hidden in other counties, but they were not caught by Jinyiwei, it seems that the actions of himself and others have long been seen.
All along, their small actions in the dark are no different from monkey shows in the eyes of the clouds.
