Chapter 519: Shadow Thistle Defense
It didn't take a single soldier to solve the matter of the sixteen states of Youji, and the matter was going too fast so that the captains of Youzhou felt that the efficiency of the imperial court was too fast this time.
In the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, in the combat conference room, the high-level meetings have been held for several days in a row, mainly studying the matter of taking over the sixteen states of Youji.
Especially for the arrangement of soldiers and horses, the territory of the sixteen states of Youzhou is not small, even if there are 200,000 in Youzhou City, the distance between them is a big problem.
With the speed of wolf smoke, it is really not necessary for the Turkic horse team to come in time, and the signal of wolf smoke is easy to make mistakes if it is discovered by the enemy.
Relatively reliable is the pigeon network, but the training of pigeon to pass the message is not so simple, if not after long-term training, the pigeon may be able to fly back, but where it flew no one knows.
Li De considered this matter when he established Red Peony, and the carrier pigeons were not absent, but the number was very small, and even if the news was transmitted, it was transmitted through two different channels.
It is to prevent people from manipulating the way of transmission.
Now the defense problem of the sixteen states of Youji is also facing the problem of remote messaging, and several lieutenants are actively thinking of a way.
"No, I'm going to lead troops out on the expedition, but I'm not good at defending the city, don't mention me about Hebida, I think you're very calm and suitable for defending the city."
He Bida and the others discussed the matter of assigning and receiving the sixteen states of the thistle, and He Bida wanted Shi Huaiyi and them to go to the garrison to defend, but the effect was not good, and no one wanted to stay in the rear.
Far from the battlefield, how can they still build meritorious deeds.
Most of them thought so, and the only advantage was to sit on one side, but none of the vanguard captains were willing to go.
They are not stupid, once they sit on one side, the development of their pattern will be equal to the end, and they are all smart, thinking that the current development trend of Youzhou, for the safety of the sixteen states of Youji, it will definitely start a war with the Turks.
If you stay in the back and charge into battle without them at that time, how can you be promoted and make a fortune and achieve outstanding feats.
"What is your idea, even if you divide the troops and how to distribute the logistics, can you guarantee that the local government you govern can provide you with enough expenses?" Ding Qilin said.
He Bida wanted to divide his troops and garrison them, so that if the enemy came to attack, they could mobilize the surrounding troops and horses at any time, so as not to act in a hurry.
Ding Qilin had a different idea, he felt that the soldiers and horses in Youzhou City could not leave easily, and although there were many advantages in dividing troops to garrison, they could stabilize people's hearts and play a deterrent role.
However, logistics, information transmission, and power control are not conducive to the development of the vanguard, and once a long time passes, the sixteen states of Youji may be a country in the middle of a foreign country.
And it's easy to split.
"Governor, will you come up with an idea?" Ding Qilin said.
"What you have said in the past few days is very reasonable, I have decided to allocate a small number of soldiers and horses to be stationed in the sixteen states of Youji, and the task is to assist in the defense of the state capital and prevent the enemy." Li Dedao.
"How many people?" Hebida asked.
"Each state capital appoints a personal guard, two thousand." Li Dedao.
30,000 people, a lot of them, because they are all personal guards, these people are definitely a great force together, and there are only 2,000 soldiers and horses scattered in various state capitals, which cannot be underestimated.
"Governor, two thousand people in each state capital doesn't seem to be enough." Hebida said.
"Who said that there are only 2,000 soldiers in the state capital, you have a mission to go, I want to turn these 30,000 soldiers and horses into 300,000 soldiers and horses." Li Dedao.
Li Jing listened from the sidelines and his brain capacity may not be enough, 30,000 soldiers and horses have become 300,000 soldiers and horses, and the only thing he can think of is recruitment.
At that time, there will be 500,000 soldiers and horses in the vanguard, and many things will be irreversible, Li Jing knows very well in his heart, he knows that this kind of thing cannot be said, and the problem at hand is to solve the defense matter.
"Governor Dadu, recruiting soldiers and horses requires a lot of food and salary, isn't it a little less?" Wei Li said loudly.
He also oversees the affairs of the Vanguard Firm, and knows a lot about the Pioneer's finances.
"Don't be in a hurry about the food and salary, and I didn't say that I would recruit people when you send troops, first give me the official system of each state capital to implement it according to the Youzhou system, and the talent demand should be screened according to Youzhou City, and those who have no knowledge but are literate and hyphenation will let them participate in recruit training." Li Dedao.
The handover of management is the top priority.
It is enough for each state capital to send 2,000 personal guards, and if anyone dares to cause trouble, they can only be handed over to those captains to deal with, and when they arrive at the local state capital, they will be handed over as soon as possible and a notice will be posted.
The officials who remain in office must be evaluated, and at the same time recruit talents for internships, and the assessment results and recruitment of talents are all summarized in Youzhou.
The interns will not have much authority, all of them are for the assessment of the people, and if anything happens, the officials will have to talk to the captains.
When these things are carried out, the Governor's Office will also send officials to inspect and register and verify the situation one by one, and this matter is handed over to Li Shimin to do, but not only Li Shimin's people but also the pioneers' people will supervise together.
After studying these things, Li De asked the captains to prepare, and the garrison was led by the captains, and Youzhou sent three captains to take an overview of these things.
In addition to the 30,000 soldiers and horses, each of the three governors took 10,000 soldiers and horses, so that there were 140,000 soldiers and horses left in Youzhou City.
In a week, 60,000 soldiers and horses arrived in various state capitals, and the captains who led the team were He Bida, Shi Huaiyi and Gao Cheng.
He Bida has a sense of the overall situation, even if there is something, he can allocate the soldiers and horses reasonably, Shi Huaiyi is useful, and he is not a hard person at a certain critical moment.
Gao Cheng's mission this time is to assist in patrolling against the Turkic invasion, so the soldiers and horses he leads are a mobile patrol team.
At this time, the Luo family, the guests and friends sat down, and it was He Bida and the other three who were invited to the banquet.
"The master of the Luo family is polite, we are acting as ordered, and the Luo family helps us to handle our affairs very smoothly." Hebida said.
"Your Majesty's will, the people's wishes, the Metropolitan Governor can be in charge of the sixteen states of Youji, it is a blessing for us and the people, but wherever it is useful to the Luo family, just open your mouth."
He Bida heard the head of the Luo family say politely that they were very happy in their hearts, and the key to the prestige of the Luo family was that it would play a great role in recruiting talents.
Don't forget that the Luo family itself has a deep family background, and there are naturally many readers, which is a great help.
"It's a blessing for us to have the Luo family to help, and there is really something for the Luo family to come forward to solve." Hebida said.
The head of the Luo family really didn't expect that the other party really had something to do, but if he wanted the Luo family's soldiers and horses, he couldn't do it, this was the bottom line.
