The soldiers of Yongping Wei have been transferred by King Yan, and there are only more than 300 people left in the garrison.

Zhu Gaoxu retreated to the signing room, while flipping through the messy files, these were all things that Jin Zhong gave him before leaving, and at the same time asking the generals to think of ideas.

At this moment, Liu Ying, a hundred households captured in Xiongxian County, said: "There are some ways for the last general, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?" ”

"Liu Baihu, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Zhu Gaoxu raised his head and said.

Liu Ying hugged her fists and said: "The local guards and military households are usually divided into guards and tuntian, and they are regularly guarded, and they all have systems; In recent years, the system of the health center has been rigid, and no one will move the rules until the deadline for rotation is reached. Not long after King Yan raised his army, everything was in a hurry, and he may have just transferred the garrison departments, and the military households that were in Tuntian should still be there. ”

"Oh!" Zhu Gaoxu suddenly patted his head and said, "If it weren't for Liu Baihu's reminder, I would have forgotten this stubble." ”

Zhu Gaoxu immediately asked Hou Hai to check Yongpingwei's dossier to see if the people in Tuntian were still in the local area. After waiting for a long time, Hou Hai entered the detention room and confirmed Liu Ying's guess.

Liu Ying came up with another idea and said: "In the name of preparing for the border, the king of Gaoyang ordered the generals of Tuntian to gather troops to report to the Acropolis. The military households are not rich, and if the prince can get some property from the Yongping Mansion Treasury to reward him, this matter will be more secure. When the soldiers and horses arrive at the Acropolis, is it prepared for the border and how to call it, and it is not the prince who has the final say? ”

Zhu Gaoxu nodded his head after hearing this, and immediately patted the table and said, "Wei Qianhu, you take the list of Yongpingwei generals and handle this matter immediately." ”

Veda stood up, clasped his fists and saluted, "Order!" ”

Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand and told Veda to do it immediately. He was still busy discerning the files in his hand and which ones were useful, and he had been doing this early in the morning.

After a while, Zhu Gaoxu put a small stack of paper forward, turned his head to look at Liu Ying, "You stay, everything else is scattered." ”

The generals bowed one after another: "The last general will retire." ”

Only Liu Ying was left standing there waiting. Zhu Gaoxu glanced at him again, "I'll also arrange something for Liu Baihu, here are some drawings from the north, you can take them." Then select experienced and clever soldiers from each battalion to form a sentinel. Find a way to find a few locals, follow the road drawn on the map, and explore the terrain near Daning City. ”

Liu Ying took two steps forward, picked up the stack of papers, and hugged her fists, "The last general will obey the order." ”

Zhu Gaoxu thought for a while and reminded: "I took a look at these pictures, and you can cross the Great Wall from Liujiakou nearby. After Liu Baihu came back, he first drew a few maps according to the actual terrain, and then talked to me. ”

"Order!"

…… After a few days, Veda called for the generals of the guard, and more than 2,000 people gathered one after another. Zhu Gaoxu did not have a military general in his hands, so he directly asked Wei Da to manage the military power of the two thousand troops as a thousand households; The generals such as deputy thousand households and hundreds of households all use the military generals on the guard, and if the generals are not enough, they will be promoted layer by layer.

The system of the Daming Guard is the same, but after the organization is formed into an army, the establishment is much the same, and it is generally slightly different because of the habits of the main general.

After Zhu Gaoxu consulted with the generals, he probably organized and reorganized the army in the guard station. A small flag of 10 people, a general flag of 56 people, a team of 100 people of more than 100 people, a general battalion of more than 300 people, and a thousand general battalions of more than 1,000 people...... There is nothing new or wrong about it.

The newly recruited military households were all infantry troops, and the cavalry had already carried the banner of "Fengtian Jingjing" to Beiping.

Zhu Gaoxu asked Wei Da to be in charge of training the newly gathered men and horses and reporting military supplies together with the generals of the Zhuwei Institute; He also wrote a letter asking people to take them to the government office and find the prefect to prepare military salaries and food.

The prefect soon came to cry poor, and Zhu Gaoxu had no choice but to bargain with him again, and then used the seals of Yongpingwei and King Gaoyang to write letters to nearby states and counties to ask for money and grain.

…… Looking from the tower of Yongping Castle, you can roughly observe that the terrain here is gradually uneven. There are faint shadows of mountains in the west of the sky, and the terrain in the south of the city is undulating, and it is impossible to see endlessly.

Liu Ying had already returned, presented the map, and talked with Zhu Gaoxu for a while. The guards were all dozens of steps away, and only Zhu Gaoxu and Liu Ying were talking here.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu patted Liu Ying's shoulder and said, "Liu Baihu, do you want to be a thousand households?" ”

"The last general ......" Liu Ying looked embarrassed, "The last general still thinks about it." ”

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at him, nodded and said: "I am short of generals now, and I don't know most of the generals of Yongpingwei, but Liu Baihu is talented." I wanted to promote you for a long time, but not long after you surrendered, you became a thousand households all of a sudden, for fear that the generals would say that I was unfair. ”

Liu Ying nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, yes, the last general understands the prince's distress." ”

"But I'm still going to promote you." Zhu Gaoxu's words changed.

"Huh?" Liu Ying raised her head.

Zhu Gaoxu patted him on the shoulder twice, and said in a deep voice: "The Yan Wangfu got the news that the imperial court summoned the King of Liao and the King of Ning to lead the troops to retreat by sea, and the King of Liao was already preparing for the trip, but the King of Ning still did not move. What was King Ning thinking? ”

Liu Ying thought for a long time and said, "He wants to ride on the wall and watch? ”

Zhu Gaoxu was noncommittal: "I don't know, I should have thought about it a lot." ”

Liu Ying: "......"

Zhu Gaoxu said again: "King Ning has a heavy army, and now King Yan and the court dare not touch him, so he is so fearless, it is estimated that he has already weighed it." So I guess he thought a lot. ”

The imperial court has been cutting the feudal domain until now, and King Ning knows that he will also be cut down when he goes back, of course he is unwilling; But it is too risky to defect directly to King Yan, it is estimated that no one is optimistic about King Yan, and King Ning will lose his life if he accidentally loses the throne.

Liu Ying nodded yes after hearing this.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at the dark mountain shadows in the sky, sighed and said, "Uncle Seventeen has so many eyes!" But what he did was effective. Whoever dares to touch him now is a fool ......"

Liu Ying groaned: "What the prince said is extremely true, whoever moves King Ning first will push him to the other side. ”

Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said, "So the best way now is to wait for the other party to move first...... However, there are so many people in the court, not everyone can be a fool, the court can afford to wait, so it will not move King Ning! King Ning only needs to hold his troops still, which is a hidden danger in Beiping's abdomen, even I can easily think of it, and there must be many people in the court who want it. ”

He said thoughtfully: "If you treat everyone as a fool, I am afraid that in the end you will find out that you are a fool." ”

"The words of the prince are deep." Liu Ying echoed.

The two were silent for a long time, and Zhu Gaoxu suddenly turned his head: "But we still have to do something, and it doesn't hurt to try." You and Veda will do this, and if it is done, I will give you a great credit!" In this way, I can go to King Yan to ask for merit for you and promote you to a thousand households. ”

"Please ask the prince to command, it is the sword mountain and the sea of fire, I will do it too!" Liu Ying couldn't wait to say.

Zhu Gaoxu beckoned him to come over and said a call.

Liu Ying hugged his fists and said: "The last general will obey the order and do his best to do it!" ”
