Chapter 84: Changing Strategies

After this incident, Shi Bin found a very serious problem: the Southern Song Dynasty court emphasized literature and light military force to the point of outrageousness.

A guy who was born in a show and didn't even have an official body dared to be so rude to him as the commander of Tanzhou, which really made him angry and unable to control himself.

The previous quartermaster never felt sorry for him because he knew that he was Jia Yidao's son-in-law, as long as Shi Bin gave him some tea money, he could get the military supplies he should get.

And this newcomer obviously doesn't know his Shi Bin's background, so he dares to deliberately make things difficult like this, is it possible that he has to hold a sign of Jia Nidao every time he takes a military quartermaster?

If that's the case, it's ridiculous, what if Jia Rudao loses power and his brand is useless?

Once one's own military supplies are not in place, it will be like a fish in the throat, the huge army machine will not be able to operate, and defeat will be absolute. After losing the war, what can we talk about recovering the Central Plains? It's nice not to be killed.

No wonder so many generals looked like servants to Wenchen, Shi Bin couldn't help but sigh.

Therefore, he is the commander of Tanzhou and has little practical significance, once he seizes his military power and does not provide military supplies, he has only one way to rebel except to be hung up.

He doesn't like to be used as a marionette, he has to do what he wants, he needs autonomy.

dragged the materials back to Tanzhou, and held a collective meeting before resting.

Along the way, everyone only knew that Shi Bin was unhappy, but they didn't know why. When they arrived at the council hall and listened to Shi Bin, the brothers understood the reason.

Everyone knew that the Southern Song Dynasty valued literature over military force, but they didn't expect that a quartermaster from a mere talent would dare to be so rude to the commander of Tanzhou, and he gave them a hammer and woke them up completely.

There was silence in the conference hall for a long time, thinking that Tanzhou was their own territory and they could sit back and relax, but they didn't expect that they would still be so controlled by others.

Everyone in the hall was thinking, once Jia Rudao lost power, wouldn't he immediately look at the faces of those prefects and governors? Or simply become a box army that builds bridges and paves roads?

Although I know that it won't be like this, it makes people feel uneasy. If you don't come out, you will be mediocre for a lifetime, but there will be no blood and light disaster.

But it is obvious that none of the people in their own gang don't want to come out and don't want to kill the Yuan soldiers, so people can't help but think of Yue Pengju's unjust death, and think of "The birds are exhausted, and the good bow is hidden; The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook. ”

But they have all been mixed up, does the commander of Tanzhou have to start all over again? The faces of the crowd were full of sadness, as if gamblers who had bet on the wrong treasure.

Jia Ling suddenly stood up and said with a smile: "Why are you so depressed? It's a big deal, and we're here for a complete makeover. ”

I know that this Miss Jia is a female Zhuge , but I don't understand what this 'complete makeover' means.

The only thing they understand is that as long as the logistics are in the hands of others, they will always be constrained.

Seeing that everyone was still ignorant and unenlightened, Jia Ling said proudly: "Why bother with a Tanzhou commander? What do you think of the Xiangtan County Order? ”

What do you mean? In this troubled era, the commander who does not have the actual military power but goes to be a county commander? Miss Jia, is this brain in water?

Everyone, including Wang San, looked like they had seen a madman.

"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by that? The dignified Tanzhou is not properly commanded, but it is a small Xiangtan county commander? Zhao Gang said loudly and slightly angrily.

Indeed, this Tanzhou commander has thousands of soldiers and horses, and Xiangtan County has only some officials and van troops, which is not interesting at all.

As soon as Zhao Gang's voice fell, Liu Xiao also said: "Sister-in-law, what you mean is right, we really want to master the grain and grass materials by ourselves, but just give up everything now... Isn't it a bit too hasty? ”

When everyone heard the word "sloppy", they all nodded in agreement.

"Brothers, I believe you have all listened carefully to what my husband said. The military power is in the imperial court, and the grain and grass are heavy in the imperial court, so let's put up a name, is it interesting to be in front of such a commander? ”

Of course, everyone knows that it's boring, but everyone just can't cross the hurdle of completely giving up these elite soldiers under them.

Knowing this kind of thing, you can only figure it out by yourself, it's useless to rely on her Jia Ling's persuasion, even if you wear out your mouth, it's useless.

So she ignored the angry or confused or hesitant people in the hall, and drank Biluochun by herself.

On the contrary, Shi Bin was the first to react, and the word 'base area' appeared in his mind. Suddenly, there was a super reaction, hugged Jia Ling, and said loudly: "Xiaoling, you are really my virtuous helper!" ”

This action can make a room full of people dumbfounded, even if they are all rough people, it is still difficult to adapt to Shi Bin's "violation" action.

In this way, the meeting can only be temporarily suspended and continued when everyone is no longer embarrassed.

After leaving, Wang San also reacted and praised Jia Ling's wisdom.

Zhao Gang saw that Wang San also praised Jia Ling, and his rectum asked, "Brother Wang, why are you crazy?" Even if the commander of this Tanzhou Prefecture is a marionette, but the Xiangtan County Commander is only an official the size of a sesame mung bean, and it is worth the eldest brother and you to be so happy without soldiers and power? ”

The rest of the people also agreed, asking Wang San to explain as soon as possible.

"Brothers, of course, the Xiangtan County Commander is a small official, but it is a civil servant, and there is a county, where we can do whatever we want." Wang San said happily.

Do whatever you want? The words are this, Xiangtan County Commander is indeed the soil emperor of Xiangtan, with Jia Yidao supporting it, Shi Bin can indeed firmly control Xiangtan in his hands, not a marionette.

But what can you do in such a big place? The crowd still didn't understand.

In order not to make them irritable after waiting for a long time, Wang San immediately explained the mystery to several other people, and everyone admired Jia Ling's resourcefulness and envied Shi Bin for such a good wife.

Although I know a general idea, many places are still worried, and many people are no longer so resistant to the change to Xiangtan County.

After a few hours, the deliberations began again. The first big question is: what to do with so many soldiers?

The county commander's subordinates have their own van army, but the establishment will not be too much. And Shi Bin's subordinates are all brothers in life and death, and these thousands of people were summoned by everyone one by one, so it was really reluctant to throw them away like this.

Wang San had a mocking face, as if he was laughing at them for being worried, Li Chaoke hated him the most, and shouted loudly: "If you have something to say, don't waste time here, you're busy!" ”

"I said, Brother Li, have you forgotten that we have a Miss Jia here? Even if you are the county commander, it seems that there is no need to really throw away these soldiers and horses, haha! ”

"Nonsense, who hasn't thought about this? Question: The county commander is a civilian official, and there is only one battalion at most, but we have fifteen battalions, how about it? Can't live! ”

Seeing that Wang San was about to open his mouth to show his ability, Li Chao said loudly again: "I know you want Jia Yidao's support, but will he be willing?" Besides, a county commander with thousands of men can be reassuring? ”

Li Chao's words made everyone stuck, indeed, it is too bad for a county commander to get five or six thousand soldiers and horses.

"In my opinion, how about we try to divide these thousands of soldiers and horses into two parts: the box army and the regimental training? On the surface, there are two battalions of the army, and the remaining thirteen battalions serve as regimental exercises. Moreover, it should be enough to ask Lord Jia to propose to the imperial court that the eldest brother be allowed to be responsible for training the regimental training of the resistance Yuan soldiers. Yi Jun opened his mouth rarely.

Indeed, this is a very vague concept of being responsible for training, the head coach and the commander can be both the same person and two different people, and now that the resistance to the Yuan is the first, let Shi Bin be the head of the training Song Ting will definitely agree.

Having found a new path, everyone immediately nodded yes. I feel that with Jia Ling's relationship, it is still possible to get five battalions of military supplies per month in Jia Rudao.

The difficulty is that although the remaining ten battalions of soldiers and horses can exist in the form of regimental training (semi-regular army), they have to raise their own materials, so the pressure is not small. Everyone racked their brains and thought about it for more than an hour, and they felt that they were at the end of the road.

Just as the meeting was about to end, Wang San's guy suddenly laughed wildly, and said with a smile: "Isn't it good for the thief to shout to catch the thief, and the thief to catch the thief?" ”

"What do you mean... Let's 'crack down on bandits' again? Shi Bin asked uncertainly.

Seeing that Shi Bin understood, Wang San was even more excited, and said: "Big brother is really powerful, but not once, but all the time." Our ten battalions of soldiers and horses and five battalions go up to the mountain to be the king of the mountain, as long as they don't bully the people to rob the rich and help the poor, won't they be self-sufficient?

As for the other five battalions that can openly ask for some supplies in order to defend the township, our burden is much smaller. ”

With this clever plan, the military needs will be solved temporarily, although most of them are still in the hands of others, but they are not afraid of their own territory.

The second big question is whether this county order is really going to Xiangtan.

"Big brother, I have no objection to you giving up the position of the commander of Tanzhou to become a county commander, but you can really only shrink to the poor ravine of Xiangtan to be a soil emperor?" Zhao Gang said with some frustration.

Shi Bin was also a little frustrated when he said this, and so did everyone, even if being a county magistrate was the best way at the moment, no one wanted to go to Xiangtan.

|“ Big brother, we have been in Tanzhou for a while, and your father-in-law is Lord Jia, the general commander of Huguang, why don't you ask your sister-in-law to tell Lord Jia and let him promote you as the county magistrate of Tanzhou? I believe that no one will deliberately embarrass us, right? Then Liu Zhizhou won't open his eyes and look for trouble. "Xie Qiangbing, the weapon expert's favorite place is the place where materials are abundant, so he desperately wants to refine weapons in Tanzhou.

Of course, Shi Bin understood Xie Qiangbing's thoughts, but he had to deny this opinion, and said very firmly: "Brother Xie, it is impossible to refine weapons in Tanzhou. Our armory workshop is absolutely unsightly, and even selling it can only be sold to people who can be completely trusted. All parties in Tanzhou City are stuck, once someone stabs this matter, not only me, but all of us will be finished. ”

After Shi Bin said this, Xie Qiangbing was convinced, but he was still a little unwilling.

Seeing this, Wang San also spoke: "Brother Qiangbing, I know you don't like small places, but this is a little helpless. But you also have to see the advantages of Xiangtan, although it is closed, but the local resources are not scarce, enough for our current needs. Moreover, the armory workshop is in the city, and the Tiangao Emperor is far from very free. Do you want to refine weapons in Tanzhou, which is rich in resources, or are you willing to refine weapons in Xiangtan City, which is not short of resources? ”

These words can be regarded as making Xie Qiangbing completely convinced, and he expressed his support for Shi Bin to go to Xiangtan to be this sesame official.

Although Shi Bin admired Jia Ling's quick thinking very much, he beat the drum in his heart again at night, but he didn't say it.

He didn't want to always ask Jia Nidao for help, but after thinking about it, he decided to reluctantly agree to ask Jia Nidao for help first, sponsor himself as a civil official, first be a Xiangtan county magistrate, and have a piece of his own territory, after all, it is the most important thing to have a piece of land that can be developed with confidence first.
