Chapter 149: Protecting Food

Jiangling, Guan Ping and some military officials came back by boat to see their relatives.

That night, Wu Yi held a banquet and invited Guan Ping to inquire about the process of the Wankou Battle, and Guan Ping brought Geng Jaw, Xue Rong and other nearly ten middle-level military officials to the banquet.

Seeing that the food was abundant when he sat down, Guan Ping sat down and went to see Geng Jaw and Xue Rong, the two young partners had stiff smiles on their faces, Xue Rong was disdainful, and Geng Jaw was mixed with sarcasm.

Wu Yi was used to it and didn't feel anything wrong.

In the melodious sound of silk and bamboo, Wu Yi drank freely with a lacquer cup, looking heroic, and his laughter was also hearty: "The first battle of the young monarch Hou Wankou shocked the thieves and ministers, which really made a certain family not very emotional. It's a pity that Your Majesty entrusted me with the important town of Jiangling, otherwise I would have led dozens of horsemen in person, and I would have to participate in the feat. ”

There are many marquis, and there are only a few people who deserve to be called princes by Wu Yizun.

Guan Ping also put down the lacquer cup: "Du Du praised, this time I can return triumphantly, first rely on the hussar general Fang Xian, the second is Lai Xiaoxian bravely crown the three armies, and the third is Mr. Shiheng mediates the armies, all the armies are together, and the soldiers are united to have this record." ”

Wu Yi arched his hand and made a strange appearance: "Shaojunhou, Jiangling officials praise the general Zhengbei, Shaojunhou and Tian Zhengbei have a deep friendship, maybe say that Tian Zhengbei is a person?" ”

Is this to hear yourself boast about others?

Guan Ping shook his head and smiled: "Filial piety is frugal, but he is very generous to the officials, so he is deeply popular with the military." On weekdays, he is generous and compassionate, likes to hoe the strong and help the weak, and hates power and oppression of good people the most. But he has a narrow personality, and his revenge will be avenged. I often persuaded him to be generous with Mr. Shiheng, but he just laughed and didn't say anything. ”

Wu Yi listened and nodded slowly, which was very in line with his own cognition.

Tian Xin is definitely a person who holds grudges, and I am afraid that this person has the strongest will for revenge in the world.

A person who holds a grudge is definitely not very powerful.

Generous and sympathetic to the soldiers, in the end, it is still to comfort and gather the hearts of the army, and it is a choice made for revenge.

Wu Yi asked again: "General Hubu is stationed in Tun Bowang, and the soldiers of his department will be selected from the Yanyu army." I don't know if it will be selected in Gangneung, or will it be screened after relocating and surrendering the army to enrich Nanyang? If you are in Gangneung, you can also help. ”

"This matter is not to worry about the governor of Laodu, Your Majesty has ordered Xiaoxian to be in the turbulent water army, Xiaoxian has led people to survey, saying that at least 2,500 hectares of fertile land can be developed, and now is the time to employ people."

Guan Ping smiled casually, and said with a natural expression: "Since Jingman migrated to Linfu, Zhonglu, Dangyang, Maicheng, and Jingling, there have been many differences in customs between the Turks and Hans. The northern army was not adapted to the water and soil in the south, and Xiaoxian and the hussar generals wanted to move the army to enrich Nanyang. ”

Wu Yi blinked: "I heard that Tian Zhengbei beheaded Xu Gongming and captured more than 8,000 officials, and now he has captured 4,000 people, adding 12,000 Ding Zhuang before and after, is it not enough?" ”

"Hehe, the governor doesn't know that our army used boats to transport grain and straw in the east, and there was very little waste. But if there is a Northern Expedition next year, it is better to land the grain in Nanyang, which can save the pain of thousands of miles of transshipment. ”

Guan Ping sighed: "Before the Yellow Turban, there were nearly 600,000 households in Nanyang, but now there are less than 120,000 households after repeated turmoil. Only by gathering and surrendering troops to plant Nanyang can we supply the northern expedition of the army next year. ”

The population of these 120,000 households is the actual population of rough statistics, and the hidden households who are blinded by the powerful have been counted, of which about 40,000 households really pay taxes.

Therefore, most of the war potential of Nanyang County is concentrated in Haoqiang, who is willing to have at least 10,000 soldiers to help in the war; If Haoqiang is unwilling, the 40,000 households in Nanyang who pay taxes can only barely supply two garrison troops. If Nanyang resists, then it will send more troops to maintain stability and suppress it.

Wu Yi's face couldn't hold back, and he said: "The surrender army is in Jiangling, with Nanyang as the partition, and the surrender army can still concentrate on planting." If you move to Nanyang, you may have to escape. I think it's inappropriate for the court. ”

Guan Ping nodded slightly: "Don't hide it from the governor, I also have this kind of concern." However, Xiaoxian is about to attack the Wuguan, defend the Wuguan, and it is difficult to go to the Guanzhong when the army is lowered. In the northeast of it, there are Wancheng, Xinye, Bowang, and Duyang armies to defend it, and it is not easy to surrender the army and want to escape. ”

Wu Yi poured himself a glass of wine, slightly depressed: "Is it really necessary to do this?" ”

"This hussar general, the Zhengbei Prison Army, Xiaoxian, and Zhang Mengxing unanimously decided that I could not interfere. However, the commanders of the Eastern Mountains, Hao Zhou, and other large and small armies would be stationed in the face of frustration, and if the governor wished, he could go and search for the available people. ”

Guan Ping said that he also had a drink, he was the deputy general of the former army, and the surrender army had already been handed over to the left army, and the prisoners in the battles of Duyang and Wankou were almost laid down by Tian Xin Huya Army himself, and the control was naturally in Tian Xin's hands.

One after the other, there were 32,000 young people who had been trained, and more than 2,000 military officials migrated to the Linfu Mountains to plant.

This group of military officials will not be used easily, but what does Wu Yi want this group of military officials to do?

Ma Chao and Tian Xin both thought that this group of military officials was in great danger, and continued to be thrown in the mountains to temper, and Wu Yi did not dare to ask for these military officials.

Leaving Wu Yi's temporary mansion and walking on the silent street, Guan Ping suddenly sighed and didn't say anything.

The group of military officials who followed him were also silent, most of them were northerners, Tian Xin was holding the surrender army tightly, and he didn't keep it for everyone?

How many people are there in the Tian Xin clan? Several of the old departments of Chengchui stayed in Jingnan for appointment, and then they were either born in the Yi barracks, and they were forced to die as a captain and a low-level miscellaneous general.

The fruit in your hand is too rich, others want to get involved, you don't give it, it's normal for people to make things difficult for you.

As for rolling up your sleeves and fighting...... Wu Yi dared to roll up his sleeves, but before Guan Yu could make a move, Liu Bei slapped Wu Yi on the head first.

Otherwise, Guan Yu will make a move, and Wu Yi will have blood luck.

Even if Guan Yu is not there in the future, with Tian Xin's current protection and food protection, if a person like Wu Yi rolls up his sleeves, he is likely to cut off these hands with a sword.

You can definitely eat enough to eat alone, but the more you eat, the more anger you will provoke.

Now in such a situation, eating alone must be eaten, and the anger of the public must be provoked, and the heart is beautiful, but there is some reasonable sorrow.

Now Tian Xin wants to expand the army, and Zhang Bao also wants to expand the army, not counting the position of middle and low-level military officials.

The specifications of the Northern Army must be above the Huya Army and the Longxiang Army, and it is the same as the Dangkou Army and the Yamen Army, which is an establishment of five thousand people in seven battalions.

Luo Qiong's Yingyang Army has five battalions, Zhang Bao's Hubu Army needs to expand three battalions of infantry, and Xu Zuo's An Zhongjun needs to expand two battalions of infantry.

Camp governors alone numbered seventeen; There are also seven middle and senior positions, including Zhengbei Sima, Yingyang Sima, Yingyang Dianjun, Hubu Sima, Hubu Dianjun, An Zhong Sima, and An Zhong Dianjun.

At the current rate of war, as long as you get these seven middle and high-level positions, you can definitely be promoted to the chief general of an army within two or three years, or you can be transferred to a county lieutenant, or a small county guard.

And in the face of military merits, what is seniority?

Everyone has no problem with their backgrounds, and they have genuine military merits, so why can't they be promoted?

Look at Luo Qiong, it took just a year to follow Tian Xin, and he jumped from Cao Zuoshi, a soldier in Zhijiang County, to a dignified general.

Although General Yingyang is a newly established miscellaneous name, it is also a miscellaneous number with allusions, which can barely be regarded as a second-rate miscellaneous number, not inferior to General Hubu.

is Xu Zuo's General An Zhong, who belongs to the first-class miscellaneous number; Meng Da's title of General Yangwu was inherited from Fazheng, which can be regarded as second-rate.

Everyone had their own thoughts, and when they returned to Guan Yu's mansion, they had another meal to eat and drink.

Guan Ping was distressed, hesitating to tell Guan Yu the answer when Tian Xin interpreted the dream.

Tian Xin's answers to the three dream interpretations at that time were all in the middle.

Now he is clinging to the army and fighting to the end against the family gatekeepers...... How much disaster can be caused, Guan Ping is a little unimaginable.
