The last remnants of the Wei army stationed in Luodu also surrendered under Li Lei's persuasion, and when the news reached Beiping, Liu De went to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

Zhang Tianlang learned that Liu De was coming, and immediately went out of the house to greet him.

After entering the mansion, Liu De went straight to the side hall where the national sand table was stored.

"Zhang Qing, now that the Wei army in Luodu has surrendered, there is no big threat in Zhongzhou except for some bandits left, but now that we occupy the land of Qizhou, the deployment of the entire army must now be re-planned, and we still have a big enemy in the east!"

Liu De stood beside the sand table and said to Zhang Tianlang beside him.

Zhang Tianlang nodded and said, "That's the truth, but if you make a big move, I'm afraid it will consume too much time!" I'm afraid this is a bit disadvantageous for us. ”

"That's right!"

Liu Dedao: "So we must strive to complete the mobilization of troops this winter." ”

"What about the West State?"

Zhang Tianlang pointed to the location of Xizhou and asked.

Xizhou is not delicate on the sand table, and can only show the direction of mountains and rivers in a crude way, and there are a few cities standing on it.

Liu De replied: "Jian Yong has already set off, but Xizhou is so far away, it is difficult to have news in a few months, but I believe that Jian Yong can get things done, according to the general trend, Baili Yun is only the right way, and Gu is not ready to collect the 50,000 Western troops in Baili Yun, still let him guard the border of Xizhou, guard against the Dafan people, just send officials to take over government affairs!" ”

Liu De took out a small wooden stick, pointed to the south of Xizhou and said: "Wudu County, the only way to Jiangzhou, although the road is dangerous and the passes are heavy, as long as we take those passes, Jiangzhou will be like a thoroughfare, allowing our army to gallop across the country." ”

"Does Your Highness want to attack from the southwest?"

Zhang Tianlang has learned Liu De's next plan from Liu De's words.

"I'm hesitating too!"

Liu De motioned for Zhang Tianlang to sit down and said to him: "Xun Qing, they all want me to fight steadily, and some people even suggested that I concentrate my troops and set the southeast first, and then the southwest of the map." But I always have a worry, Xiang Yu is brave and unscrupulous, but I think he is probably the biggest opponent of our unification of the world, so I am ready to make preparations with both hands, with a general sitting in Xizhou, and the general commander pacifying the southwest. I personally sat in Danzhou and commanded the pacification of the two prefectures of Dingdong and Lu. ”

Zhang Tianlang thought for a moment and asked, "Which general does Your Highness want to send to sit in Xizhou?" ”

"The situation in the southwest is very different from our north, there are many mountains and forests, and most of the generals of the Han army are good at cavalry warfare, foot warfare and even siege warfare, but they are not familiar with jungle warfare at all, and we do not understand the topography and climate environment of the southwest, so we should be more cautious in the selection of generals."

"Zhang Aiqing, do you have any recommended candidates?"

Liu De asked suddenly.

Zhang Tianlang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied: "The minister has been busy with the construction of the martial arts hall all these years, and now he is a little rusty about marching and fighting, and he doesn't know much about these generals. ”

Liu De shook his head and said: "Hu Lu has always been our henchman, Bai Qi must be stationed in Beizhou, and when Hu Lu recovers, he will inevitably go south." ”

Of course, Zhang Tianlang knew that Liu De would definitely not allow Bai Qi to go south, and he just proposed it to find an excuse.

Liu De then stood up and said to Zhang Tianlang: "It is necessary to send a guard to garrison Zhongzhou to clear out the bandits in Zhongzhou, and a good official to appease the people and restore the people's livelihood." ”

Liu De thought for a while and said, "Just let Liu Pi and Yao Jun go over!" It was relatively easy for the two of them to clean up those bandits who did not enter the stream in Zhongzhou. ”

"Let the sick Right Army Governor sit in Jinju, and listen to the order at any time to prepare for the attack on Luzhou."

"The governor of the Chinese army has been vacant, and the control of the Chinese army is not good, so Chen Qi was appointed as the governor of the Chinese army, and the residence of the Chinese military governor is located in Daming County near Beiping, which is only two or three days away from Beiping, just right."

"The minister knows!"

Zhang Tianlang hurriedly received the order.

"The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies was renamed the Metropolitan Governor's Office, and the position of the Metropolitan Governor was led by a lonely relative, and the official position of the Metropolitan Governor was superb, and the Governor of the First Rank was set up to know one person, and two people from the Governor of the First Rank were set up, and the judges of the Five Armies were appointed by the Metropolitan Governor's Office. In the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, the military division was set up, and the main officer was set up to join the army about the seventh grade, and a number of people joined the army from the seventh rank to participate in the military aircraft. ”

"Weizhou, Jinzhou, and Zhongzhou are under the jurisdiction of Huo Quai, the governor of the Right Army, and Weizhou Li Dingguo, Ma Chao, Xu Huang, and Zhongzhou Liu Pi are all under the command of Huo Quai."

"Transferred Liu Gui, the governor of the left army, Shan Hongwei, the general of Zuo Weiwei, entered Beijing, Dongyu City was taken over by Huo Jun, the general of Zuo Xiaowei, Leyang City was taken over by Wei Qing, the general of the left Xiaowei, Qi Jing, the left general of the left Xiaowei, guarded Daixianjin in Yanzhou, and Sun Chongjin, the right general of Xiaowei, guarded Danzhou Binchengjin."

Daixianjin and Binchengjin are both very important ferries along the coast of Yan and Danzhou.

Zhang Tianlang personally wrote every word Liu De said, and the more he listened, the more frightened he became, transferring Liu Gui to the capital, is this a distrust of Liu Gui?

Shouldn't it be?

Or are there other appointments?

Liu De took a sip of hot tea and continued to order: "Yanzhou and Beizhou are under the jurisdiction of Bai Qi, the former military governor, and Huo Jun and Wei Qing are both under Bai Qi's command. ”

"Set up the Yanzhou Naval Army, the Danzhou Naval Army, the Governor of the Erpin Naval Army to lead all the naval armies of the country, and set up the Deputy Governor of the Erpin Naval Army to assist the Governor of the Naval Army, and set up the Admiral of the Sanpin Naval Army to be in charge of the Naval Army, and set up the Admiral of the Sanpin Naval Army to be the Admiral of the Naval Army, and the other official positions remain unchanged, under the direct jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, the left general of the left Xiaowei Qi Jing was reappointed as the left Admiral of the Yanzhou Naval Army, and the right general Sun Chongjin was reappointed as the Left Admiral of the Danzhou Naval Army."

"Jizhou and Luanzhou are under the jurisdiction of Chen Qi, the governor of the Chinese army."

"Danzhou is the jurisdiction of Guan Yu, the capital of the rear army!"

"Do you remember everything?"

Finally, Liu De looked at Zhang Tianlang.

Zhang Tianlang finished writing the last stroke, spit out a breath of turbidity, and hurriedly responded: "Your Highness, the record has been completed." ”

"Great goodness!"

Liu De continued to say: "Zhang Tianlang has made meritorious contributions to the country, and he has been moved to the governor of Zhengyipin, and Liu Gui has been transferred from the governor of Yipindu to serve as the deputy sacrificial wine of the Wutang. Appointed Yu Ban as the squire of the military department, the position of general remained unchanged, and Shan Hongwei continued to serve as a general, leading an army by himself, under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Chinese Army. ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Tianlang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and finished Liu De's last words.

Zhengyipin's governor knows that this is equivalent to the first assistant of the cabinet in government affairs, with a lofty status, and Zhang Tianlang knows his ability, to be honest, he is not brilliant in some aspects, and Guan Yu, Bai Qi and others are quite far behind, Liu De was fashionable in Dongyu and needed Zhang Tianlang to help him stabilize the overall situation, but now Zhang Tianlang's role is more to help Liu De check and fill in the gaps, or even just Liu De's rubber stamp, which only needs to be sealed.

Although the status is high, he does not have the position of deputy sacrificial wine in the martial arts, although it is a good product, but he has no authority to exist, because he is not in charge of the army.

But this is not to say that the governor is a fictitious position, or he is in charge of many things, such as various military services, military defense, and border military orders, which must go through the Metropolitan Governor's Office, as well as the selection of military attachés, the transfer of military guards, the transfer of tiger talismans, etc...

However, Zhang Tianlang has no complaints, and now he has the status he has now, most of which is also Liu De's reward.

The position of deputy sacrificial wine in the martial arts hall is indeed too important, and all martial artists should be called "sir"!

Such a position, which he has held for several years, is understandable to take it back now.

"After using the Great Seal, send it to the guards!"

"The minister understands!"

......

After Liu De dealt with it, he returned to the Han Mansion and summoned Shou Fuxun.

Liu De went back and forth between the two mansions, although his body was strong, but he was still a little tired mentally, a small official brought a cup of hot tea, and Liu De motioned Xun to sit on his side.

said: "Zhongzhou is initially decided, and there is still a need for capable officials to go to the town, can Xun Qing have a suitable candidate?" ”

Xun smiled at Liu De and said, "There are just two candidates here. ”

"Oh? Who is it? can enter Xun Qing's eyes, presumably his ability is quite good! ”

Xun introduced Liu De: "One of the two is named Wei Xiang, and the other is called Bingji, both of whom served as county commanders in Danzhou, and after investigation, the two were officials of the Great Zhou, and later Li Yun was the pastor of Danzhou, and the two returned to Wei with their governors, and then because of their outstanding ability, they were appointed as county commanders, and were deeply loved by their people, and their abilities were so outstanding that they could be sent to Zhongzhou to serve as officials. ”

Liu De nodded, Wei Xiang and Bingji were summoned by themselves, but Liu De didn't expect that the identities of the two of them were Wei officials, but this is okay, after all, even the Li family has been demoted, and as long as there is ability and character among the officials of Wei State, they can be appointed.

It can alleviate the current situation of the shortage of officials in the Han Kingdom.

Of course, so-called loyalty also has to stand the test of time.

"Great goodness!"

Liu De praised and asked, "Where are the two of them now?" ”

"Just waiting for the appointment at the ministry!"

Liu De nodded, beckoned a tiger guard and said, "Summoning Wei Xiang and Bingji." ”

Waiting for Huwei to leave, Liu De said to Xun: "Xun Qing, Xun Yan, Xun Chen, Xun Yue, and Xun are all serving as county magistrates in Jizhou, and their political achievements are outstanding. ”

Xun Nai is the first assistant of the Han Dynasty, with a noble status, although he is not the oldest, he is already the head of the Xun family, and these four people are all Xun's brothers, so when dispatching these four people, Liu De still has to talk to Xun.

The first assistant is the prime minister.

Liu De wants to give Xun, the first assistant, corresponding respect.

Xun said: "The ministers are afraid, this is what the ministers should do, and it is all up to His Highness to decide." ”

Liu De nodded and said: "Then appoint Xun Yan as the Taishou of Zhongzhou Luodu, Xun Chen as the Langzhong of the Ministry of Officials, Xun Yue as the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and Xun as the Wailang of the Military Department." ”

Xun reminded: "Your Highness, now there is no chief officer in the military department, it is almost an empty shelf, Xun used to be?" ”

"It is impossible for the military department to remain vacant, so Gu is ready to dispatch Baili Xi as the secretary of the military department, Tan Zheng as the secretary of the national superintendent, and temporarily lead the national superintendent. By the way, Yu Ban continued to serve as a general but hung with the rank of squire of the military department. ”

Xun immediately understood Liu De's thoughts, Baili Xi supervised the imperial examination for two years, Liu De didn't seem to want Baili Xi to continue to be in charge of the imperial examination, but Tan Zheng's prestige was not enough to preside over the imperial examination, so what does His Royal Highness mean?

Yu Ban asked him to hang the official title of the squire of the military department, I am afraid that Yu Ban will not be allowed to lead the troops here.

It's a pity that Yu Ban shouldn't have been confused at that time.

Xun sighed, and did not justify the ban, Xun did not dare to interfere in military affairs.

Tan Zheng is also a classmate and friend of Liu De and Jian Yong, but Tan Zheng is a little wooden, and his closeness is not as good as Jian Yong's, and his ability is also average, so his promotion is relatively slow, but loyalty is absolutely no problem.

The Tiger Guard soon returned, with two men behind him.

The two of them walked quickly to Liu De, bowed to Liu De and said, "Grass people Wei Xiang (Bingji) meet His Royal Highness the Duke of Han, Lord Shoufu!" ”

"Hurry up, please!"

Liu De got up and helped him for a while, and then looked at the two people, Wei Xiang had a serious face and was tall, while Bingji was a little shorter and had a more amiable face.

As the lord of a country, Liu De received two small county commanders of Wei State, which can be said to be a very courteous treat, and both of them looked quite excited.

Liu De smiled and said to the two: "Xun Qing praised you for your outstanding talent in front of Lonely, Xun Qing's vision is very high!" If the two of you can enter Xun Qing's eyes, your ability must be good, and you want to test the two of you today. ”

Wei Xiang and Bingji glanced at each other, their eyes showed a hint of excitement, both of them are young, and now they can enter the eyes of His Royal Highness the Duke of Han, it must have a bright future, even the kind-hearted Bingji is not exempt from vulgarity, and quickly straightened up and listened to Liu De's teachings.

Liu De asked two questions at random, and then took the opportunity to check the attributes of the two:

----------------------

Benevolent!

This stunt is very awesome!

Liu De sighed in his heart.

It seems that Bingji is suitable to stay in Beiping, while Wei Xiang can be released as an official according to the historical image.

So Liu De said to the two: "Appoint Bingji as the head of the Criminal Department, and Wei Xiang as Luodu Zhang'an Ling." ”

"Your Highness!"

The two of them were given the order to thank him.
