The establishment of the Ming Marquis Mansion was very smooth, that is, based on the old team of the original Xiangguo Mansion, a political system framework was established for the pastoral scenery as the main public.

At the beginning, Mushan died in Luoyang, the herdsman who leaned towards the government and the opposition was like a house built on a pile of sand, which collapsed in an instant, and the ministers under the command of the herdsman were all cleaned up, the dead died, the betrayal of betrayal, and the officials above the rank of two thousand stones escaped except for Shangshu Cai Yong, none of them followed, and the officials of the Jiuqing Department were either persuaded by Wang Yun or forcibly held hostage by Dong Zhuo and went south.

But as the so-called rotten ship still has three nails, although Mushan suppressed the imperial court with strong strength, resulting in unpopularity, but when he was in charge of the imperial court, he also promoted a lot of officials who were depressed because of their background, and they were willing to follow Mujing to break through to the south at the moment of life and death, there were about seven or eight court officials, all of whom were minions of the herdsmen, and most of them were only officials with a rank of about 600 stones, but even so, they were also talents in a county, and it was these people who made the system of Mujing's Minghou Mansion run rapidly.

The Ming Marquis Mansion has set up Sima, Changshi, and Zhu Bo under the Ming Marquis Mujing, and has three major official positions, which are equivalent to the three dukes in the imperial court, and govern all military and political affairs in the Ming Marquis Mansion.

After a few days of discussion, Mu Jingli split the public opinion, appointed Hu Zhao as the head of the Ming Hou Mansion, in charge of the affairs of the Hou Mansion, and Liu Jin was the main Bo, Xi Zhicai was Sima, Liu Jin was capable, and he had the best reputation in the land of the Six Counties, and he was mainly used to stabilize people's hearts, and Xi Zhi was the military advisor, and he was used as Sima, which was to tell everyone that Mu Jing trusted his military advisor ability.

At the same time, Mu Jing established the South Study and the North Wutang under the Hou Mansion, which was different from the ordinary establishment of the Kaifu autonomy, but he made an advance preparation for the division of civil and military affairs in the future.

The current court official system has some ambiguous powers, for example, the defense of a county has jurisdiction over military and political affairs, which is equivalent to a party of princes, who is appointed to the court, and loyalty and courage are naturally to serve the court, but it is too simple to recruit troops and buy horses if you want ambitious people

This is one of the root causes of the loss of control of power.

However, Mu Jing didn't want to eat a big fat man in one bite, and the official system that had been maintained for many years was not so easy to change.

Since ancient times, a law-changer must not die well, and he will not stir this bottom line unless he has absolute strength.

But there are some things that we know are wrong and backward, so we must change them.

So he established the South Study and the North Martial Hall in preparation for the establishment of his own administrative system in the future.

However, under the Beiwutang and Nanshufang, he imitated the ancient prime minister's palace system and established thirteen Cao, each of which set up a principal......

That's enough to gag everyone's mouths.

The establishment of the Ming Marquis Mansion was based on the efforts of Hu Zhao and others, and one by one the departments began to improve, starting with the jurisdiction of the six counties, and the prototype of a warlord gradually took shape.

At this time, Mu Jing's attention began to focus on the affairs of the whole army.

The six counties of Nanyang are not a place to stay for a long time, this is not enough for his future foundation, his next plan is to enter Hanzhong, and must be stationed in Hanzhong before Yuan Shu completely eats the entire Yuzhou, once Yuan Shu reacts, with heavy troops to press the realm, block him here, the future of the road to Hanzhong is unknown, he is equivalent to heaven and no way into the ground.

And if you want to enter Hanzhong, there must be a fierce battle, even if in the end Xi Zhi can persuade Liu Yan and get Liu Yan's permission, but he still has to face Zhang Lu, a single Zhang Lu is very tricky, Wudou Mi Sect and Heavenly Master Dao, together are no less than the existence of Taiping Dao.

Without absolute strength, he didn't dare to enter Hanzhong, and once Liu Yan was not moved by his conditions and suppressed his desires, it would be a bloody battle.

In any case, it is best to convince Liu Yan, and if he is not convinced, he can only fight, and once the war starts, the strength of the army is the most critical.

Mu Jing now has four soldiers and horses, although a lot of them have been damaged and disrupted, and the loss of troops is also very serious, even if the Yangshan battalion is added, there are less than 80,000 troops, but these are all elite veterans who have been killed from the sea of swords and fires.

Now there is only one time left to adjust and cultivate, as long as he recovers, these 70,000 or 80,000 troops can be used as 200,000 troops, and he will have confidence when he enters Hanzhong.

So during this time, Mu Jing put all his energy on it, and in the troubled times, there are soldiers who are the grass kings, and nothing is more important than restoring the fighting spirit of the soldiers.

Fierce battle in the Kwantung coalition army, breaking through the siege of Guanzhong, one battle after another has exhausted all the soldiers of the pastoral army, especially one by one robes died on the battlefield, so that many soldiers were traumatized, when they were in Guanzhong, they faced a life and death crisis every day, even if a comrade-in-arms and brothers fell, for them they could still grit their teeth to persevere, but now they have relaxed their will has fallen to the bottom.

At this time, the strength of the pastoral army was the weakest, and Mu Jing had to come in to restore the fighting spirit of the soldiers in order to restore the combat effectiveness of the pastoral army, so he held a mourning party for the first time, in the name of Jiang Lu, for all the dead in the battle, but this was not enough, he needed more means to let these soldiers come out of their grief......

……

Yizhou, Shu County.

Mianzhu County.

There is a grain store on the most central street in the county, called Chen's Grain Store.

The shopkeeper of this grain store is a Hongnong, named Chen Yu, about forty, kind people, often smiling, in the land of Bashu merchants are also a little famous businessmen, he is good at buying local grain, and then shipped to the north to sell, I heard that he has a big backer in the north, and the local grain merchants are the same to transport the Bashu soldiers out, because the Bashu grain is sufficient, the price of grain is low, but there are at least several times the profit of transporting out, so he will give him some face.

The backyard of the grain store.

As the shopkeeper, Chen Yu was kneeling in front of one person and saluted respectfully: "Master, I have inquired clearly, three days later, Liu Yan will come to Mianzhu to inspect the drills of the Dongzhou Army, and he will settle in the south of the city." ”

"That's good news."

When Tan Zong heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

After entering Yizhou for so long, he never found a chance to avoid He Fang's gaze and meet Liu Yan secretly, and now he has a chance.

"Master, we don't know Liu Yan's attitude yet, if you come forward in person, for fear of danger, it's better for me to go."

Chen Yu said.

No one knew that this shopkeeper Chen, who had taken root in the business world of Bashu in just one year, was once a ranger.

When he was forced by the local county order, his family was ruined, and it was the people of Jingwusi who saved him and avenged him, and he sold it to Jingwusi in his life, and now he says that Jingwusi is the flag keeper of Shu County.

"You can't do this!" Tan Zong shook his head, and then added: "It's a matter of life and death for the lord, and I can't do it, I have someone to see him." ”

"Who is it?" Chen Yu asked.

"You don't have to ask who it is, there's one thing that you have to do now." Tan Zong's face was solemn.

"Please command!" Chen Yu was on standby.

"This trip is dangerous, and it is the most important confidant of the lord to see Liu Yan, which is very important for the future of the lord, and our responsibility is that no matter the success or failure of the negotiation, we must ensure that this person leaves safely."

Tan Zong said in a deep voice: "For this reason, we Jingwu Si can sacrifice everything, not only all the foundations in Bashu over the years, including your and my lives. ”

He paused and continued: "I have already dispatched one hundred and fifty rangers into Shu County, and you can arrange the rest. ”
