Chapter 564 King Horn (2)

After that, Xue Wanjun also talked about his own mess.

He is also in charge of a lot of things, since Li Bi was pregnant, Xue Wanjun took advantage of the situation and Su Kang, served in the governor's office Sima to join the army, the recruitment of soldiers, training, criminal responsibility in the army, shepherding horses, supervising the manufacture of ordnance and other things.

This is undoubtedly a very important position, and a large part of it is deprived of the authority from the hands of the military government, in other words, Xue Wanjun has a lot of power, and he can directly hold the military generals accountable, and in some cases, he can directly command the military government non-commissioned officers to act.

Of course, he was lucky enough to come to this position, one was that Li Bi gave birth to a child, and he happened to be a training ambassador under Li Bi, so he took over Li Bi's authority.

The other one, at that time, the army was outside, and no one was fighting with him, and then there was his brother Xue Wanche who commanded Li Po's guards, and he was more and more trusted by Li Po, and even Xue Wanjun also benefited.

Otherwise, without these coincidences, how could such a heavy responsibility fall on Xue Wanjun's head.

Of course, the war season has created a lot of guys who have risen to the top, and there is no more than Xue Wanjun, and some other reasons for this do not need to be explained one by one.

Speaking of which, in order to rest with the people, the important function of recruiting troops has now come to a standstill, and the expansion of the various military brigades has been artificially suppressed.

Only the captured Turkic tribes in the north continued to fill the cavalry corps.

In the past year or two, Xue Wanjun's most important tasks are actually two, one is to train the Turkic soldiers, so that they can better integrate into the Daizhou cavalry cluster.

Then there is strict military discipline to restrain these Turks who used to be happy on the steppe, and now it seems that the achievements are remarkable, the expansion of the cavalry units has been continuing, and the Turkic soldiers can quickly adapt to the military career of Sui, and Xue Wanjun has contributed a lot.

But Xue Wanjun also said that the Turkic army was limited by war horses, and the Turks' desire to join the army was very strong, but the supply of war horses was a little oversupplied.

There is no way, in order to restore the vitality of the north, a large number of cattle and sheep are stocked on the pasture, and the shepherding of war horses has also been affected, and Xue Wanjun also feels that the winter storage of forage also has its limit, and if there are more cavalry, the forage will not be able to keep up.

This roughly means that it is better to maintain the current size of the cavalry, and if there are more, there is only one way to use troops in the clouds.

In addition, the cavalry is not a problem at all, there are many Turkic warriors who stretch their necks and wait for others to die in battle, so as to leave a place for themselves.

Obviously, the captured Turkic tribes very much wanted to get rid of their current living conditions, and the repeated purges made the nobility among the Turks drastically reduced, and those ordinary herdsmen finally had a chance to come out, and their desire to return to the steppe was becoming weaker and weaker, and they only wanted to get rid of the status of slaves, and made efforts to do so.

With Xue Wanjun's analysis, then Li Poxia's decision will be very fast.

Turks are allowed to intermarry with the local people, and once they are registered with the local people, they can be given the status of government soldiers, but there are prerequisites, change the surname of the Han people, and learn to speak Chinese.

There is nothing strange about it, both Xue Wanjun and Chen Xiaoyi accepted this task calmly, because since the Qin and Han dynasties, they have actually done this to the attached Hu people.

The work done in the Jin Dynasty was too rough, and the vitality was too seriously injured by the war at the end of the Han Dynasty, so it was eaten back by the Hu people inside.

The current situation is actually very dangerous, Li Po has already had the intention to move the Turks into Yanmen, but this does not seem to be a good strategy, the Turks need a lot of living space, Yanmen can not meet this condition, and the people of Yanmen have a great enmity with the Turks, as soon as the Turks come, maybe there will be civil strife.

Therefore, the intermarriage between the Turks and the people of Daizhou is not so reliable, and there are the most widows in the city of Mayi, but how many can really marry the Turks?

This must be a long-term effort, and for a long time, it will be necessary to prevent the Turks from returning north or rebelling on the spot.

It's almost said, Xue Wanjun also has his own suggestions, and now the old system of the Sui period has been restored to the training of the soldiers in the spare time, and weapons and armor are also being distributed.

But the jurisdiction of the military government has not yet been determined, that is to say, the military government system is out of touch with Li Po here, and the generals of the Weifu have real military power, and the recruitment and training of troops and other things have returned to the governor's office, so they have lost interest in how the local government soldiers are, and no one has spoken out on this matter.

Xue Wanjun meant that the military registration of the government soldiers was completely returned to the central government, and then the governor's office ordered each guard to send people to the local training of the government soldiers, and the governor's office sent people to exercise the power of inspectors.

Once something happens, the government soldiers will be conscripted according to the military status, and they will be under the control of the general of the guard.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Po felt that it was not impossible, and one of the most important purposes of the government military system was to centralize power and prevent generals from using their personal prestige to do things like secession.

The benefits are obvious, he can indeed ensure the combat effectiveness of the army at the same time, but also curb the ambition and strength of the generals, the generals with names and surnames are all serving in the center, and those people in the local area naturally dare not be too presumptuous.

As for the drawbacks, just look at the current way of the world to understand the result of the collapse of the government military system.

Xue Wanjun's proposal was to continue to deprive the generals of their power on the basis of the government military system, and the reason why Li Po felt that it was feasible was not because of this, but because this kind of fine-tuning would not arouse the disgust of the generals.

Xue Wanjun cleverly distributed the power of military training to the Wei Mansion, but took over the military registration of the government soldiers that should have been stored in each Wei Mansion, that is to say, it will be wrong, anyway, now that the jurisdiction of the Wei Mansion is unknown, he simply made some moves and continued to tighten the control of the Wei Mansion soldiers.

Although Li Po felt that this idea was good, he didn't decide immediately, the matter involving the core of the Wei Mansion was already a big deal, and it was too hasty to make a judgment in a hurry.

For Xue Wanjun, Li Po is also very satisfied, he has always appreciated the people who work hard, and he can say such a suggestion, which shows that Xue Wanjun is very far-sighted, this person has only one shortcoming, he is not ruthless enough, and it is not appropriate to be in charge of military discipline and criminal responsibility.

At this time, Li Po naturally did not blame Xue Wanjun for this, but felt that a trip to Youzhou was really cheap, and it was really a lot cheaper, in addition to the population and soldiers, Youzhou led by Wen Yanbo was very talented.

When it was Chen Xiaoyi's turn, the things he said were very complicated.

The Turkic royal court in the north has returned to the ancestral land, and it will continue to be friendly with the Turks in the future, or it will be ignored, there are pros and cons.

Chen Xiaoyi thinks that it is best to maintain the status quo with the Turks, and if he is too close, he has asked this side to send troops to exterminate the Yulin bandit Guo Zihe before, and will he let him attack Dou Jiande, Li Yuan and others in the future? If it goes against the strategy here, listen or not?

If you don't want to be the sword and arrow of the Turks, you have to stay away, but if you are too far away, you can't do it, and the Turks' brains are hot, and they remember the blood feud they had at the beginning, which is not a joke.

Therefore, this requires a very flexible diplomatic strategy, and Chen Xiaoyi suggested that by taking advantage of the marriage with the Turks, let Yu Wenxin, the head of the Daizhou marching army, personally go to the Turkic royal court to make friends with some Turkic magnates and make plans for the future.

Li Po has actually made a decision in this matter, he wants to delay for a while and then send someone north, since Chen Xiaoyi proposed Yu Wenxin, the candidate is Yu Wenxin.

After a slight gesture, Chen Xiaoyi immediately changed the topic smartly, and talked about the appointment and dismissal of personnel, and recently there have been more and more people recommended by officials here in Jinyang, and Chen Xiaoyi felt that something was wrong.

So he proposed to recall some old people in Daizhou, of course, he wouldn't say it so directly, just said that the people in Daizhou worked hard and made great achievements, but they often fell behind when they talked about their merits.

Isn't it chilling for a long time? If not, if you are reassigned to your post by merit, you will be appointed separately.

This thought of Li Po again, Li Po looked at Chen Xiaoyi, and sighed secretly in his heart, it would be nice if there was less white hair on that head.

It can be said that in terms of foresight and proportion, none of these people around him can compare to Chen Xiaoyi, but unfortunately, Chen Xiaoyi is indeed old......

There is no need to hesitate about this, Li Po has been thinking about it for a long time, and nodded and agreed with Chen Xiaoyi's suggestion, asking him to draw up a list as soon as possible, so that he can reward the meritorious people later.

Chen Xiaoyi was cunning and cunning, and after a little glance at Li Po's color, he smiled and said, "Don't be in a hurry...... The minister thinks that this matter needs to be done after the governor is crowned king, and its effect is good......"

As soon as these words came out, the other two trembled slightly, one put down the wine, the other also put down the chopsticks, sat up straight, pricked up their ears, and looked over with burning eyes.

This is the second time that Li Po has claimed to be a subordinate in front of him, in the past, he was the self-proclaimed subordinate official, but now he has changed invariably, it can be seen that Wen Yanbo and Chen Xiaoyi are worthy of being his most trusted and valued confidants.

Now there is nothing to hide, Li Po shook his head and smiled: "Such a big thing, but I still have to see the queen to talk about it...... Haha, to be able to get to this point, thanks to the great help of all of you, come, I salute you. ”

Even if they knew that this person would not be able to push the throne, several people still felt relieved at this time, because everyone could see Li Po's preference for the sun, moon and star flags, so they all had a heart.

The three of them said a few words of humility, drank a glass, and they all showed their happy faces.

Xue Wanjun immediately arched his hand and asked, "If you want to be the king, I don't know if the chief manager has already set the title of king?" ”

Li Po sighed and asked rhetorically, "Does Sima have a good opinion for me?" ”

Xue Wanjun was immediately stunned, he really didn't think about this problem deeply, but then again, he was no stranger to the king from the world, he groaned a little, and then looked at the other two, and said secretly, this matter must not be listened to me, so what's the harm in talking about it? Anyway, there's an old fox and a little fox here.
