Chapter 175: The Ten-Day Covenant
Early the next morning, Huo Wuyi and his entourage bid farewell to several generals of the Chaohu Water Division.
Yu Deputy Dutong and An Yong both thought about the building ship and more than 300 warships captured by the Anqing Naval Division.
The two families are in-laws, but they can be regarded as a family, and it is okay to be the master of the house, and it is somewhat taboo for others.
If it weren't for this, Lao Dutong would not have surrendered the two families back then, and then pushed the boat to recruit the infamous Sheng Shuangdao, and divided the Chaohu Water Division into three divisions.
It's just that Huo Wu didn't speak, and they didn't take the initiative to ask each other.
I don't want to, when the two said goodbye, Huo Wu directly said to the deputy capital: "The rules of our Chuzhou army, the capture is three or seven points, the army is handed over three percent, the main general is divided into two percent, the deputy generals below are divided into two percent, and three percent are returned to the soldiers...... It's just that all the warships captured in the water battle last night can't be used if they are handed over to others, so they can all be dispatched out of the old and weak to serve as auxiliaries, and the thirty percent of the warships will be assigned to Hexian and Binjiang counties to garrison and cruise......"
When Deputy Du Yu heard this, he hesitated: "How to arrange the two building ships......
Huo Wu looked at Yu Deputy Dutong, and then at An Yong, and said: "What I mean, everything remains the same, whether it is the building boat, or the more than 2,000 Anqing sailors, you two Weng and son-in-law discuss the distribution." It's that the water division has changed from the previous three to the current two, the elder brother is in charge, and General An and the boss of your family still have one each......"
When Deputy Dutong Yu and An Yong heard this, they couldn't help but be moved.
Before they were thrown into the Chuzhou army, they had already made preparations for being mixed with sand and cutting power, but they never expected to maintain the current pattern.
Marshal Huo is really kind-hearted.
Huo Wuzheng said: "There is just one, now that we have become a family, we have to abide by the rules of the family, so it is like a thing...... Go back and ask someone to copy a copy of the regulations of the Chuzhou Army for you, we will keep the good rules, and those who break the rules will be punished according to the set, regardless of likes and dislikes, regardless of relatives or relatives...... Let's protect ourselves in this troubled era and protect the people here, we can't say that everyone praises us, and we can't let people point to the backbone and scold the ancestors! ”
"Fifth master, rest assured, there are good rules, and there are rules, so that our Chuzhou army can go in the long run......," Yu Deputy Dutong nodded hurriedly and said.
An Yong also said: "How important is the heart of the people in this world, let's restrain our sons, and don't dare to damage the reputation of our Chuzhou army's benevolence and righteousness." ”
Huo Wu thought for a while and said, "On the tenth day of today's first month, our old brothers will give Old Tang a ride...... After the fifteenth 'first seven' funeral, we turned back to Hexian ...... Cross the river on September 20, let's fight the Taiping ......"
When Deputy Dutong Yu and An Yong heard this, they both looked surprised.
"There are ten days left, will it be too rushed?"
Yu Deputy Dutong said worriedly.
Not to mention Luzhou, it is Hezhou, and it has not been long since the Chuzhou army newly occupied.
Huo Wu shook his head: "The Daqing Army's Eastern Expeditionary Army has already captured Hangzhou...... In Qichun, the country was founded, and Hongzhou and Wuchang were occupied, and the imperial court had already transferred troops from Fujian, Zhejiang, and Jiang to Hangzhou, and the imperial court in Wuchang and Hongzhou would not tolerate it...... The lack of space around Jinling is a rare opportunity! ”
The most important thing is that he wants to find a stable place to settle down as soon as possible.
Tang Guang's death really scared him.
There are unpredictable circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck.
Now the rebel army and the imperial army in various places will always have to face it in the future.
Chuzhou City is small, and Hezhou is not much bigger, and Luzhou is larger, but it can't be expanded here.
There is only Jinling, and the city wall is high.
Turn back and repair the fallen wall, and it will be a fortified city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Yu Deputy Dutong and An Yong were both a little excited, but they didn't expect Huo Wu to directly point at Jinling.
No wonder Mr. Lin said that Marshal Huo's pattern is not in Luzhou, nor is it in Huainan Province.
It turned out to be the world.
The military strength of the Chuzhou army, they all saw it in their eyes, and it was not much worse than the regular soldiers in the court.
There are a few fierce generals, and I really don't dare to think about where I will go in the future.
Huo Wu, Deng Jian, Xue Biao, Master Lin, Huo Bao and others will lead 10,000 horses to take a shortcut back to Chuzhou from Route 6.
Ma Juzi and Huo Hu led 5,000 people from Deng Jian's department, and Hou Xiaoming led 3,000 child soldiers, totaling 8,000 Chuzhou troops, who would take the boat of the Chaohu Water Division to go ashore in Chaoxian County and go to Hezhou to recruit troops and prepare for war.
Shui entered his own 3,000 people, Huo Bao led 3,000 child soldiers, and a total of 6,000 people stayed in Luyang.
Du Laoba in Shucheng, Monk Feng in Lujiang, Huo Wudu asked someone to pass the message, and said the next arrangement, so that Du Laoba would return to Chuzhou immediately for funeral, and also let Monk Feng return to Chuzhou after taking the city.
The two divisions, except for those who stayed to defend the city, returned to Hezhou to prepare for war.
Before, he wanted to keep Monk Feng and Shui Jin in Luyang, but he changed his mind when he came.
The water is still in, and tens of thousands of new dings have only fallen here in Luyang, and it is necessary to leave a general to guard it.
As for Monk Feng......
The generals of all the departments went back to mourn, leaving only Monk Feng, who didn't seem to treat people as their own.
And this heart of harm is indispensable, and the heart of defense is indispensable.
Monk Feng is the newly invested Chuzhou army, and it is not good to let him hang alone, especially the unstable Luzhou that has just arrived.
Before everyone said goodbye, there was good news.
Lujiang County, which is close to Beiguan, has been taken by Monk Feng last night.
Monk Feng asked someone to report the victory overnight, and he brought his soldiers to support Du Lao's Eighth Department in Shucheng.
Huo Wu immediately asked someone to send a message again, asking Monk Feng and Du Laoba to return to Chuzhou together after taking Shucheng.
Shui Jin is also familiar with Tang Guang, although he can't return to Chuzhou in military affairs, he also prepared a funeral and handed it over to Qiu Wei, sighing: "It's a pity that I can't give Tang Ye a ride, and I will sacrifice Tang Ye in person on ......the anniversary."
Hou Xiaoming, Huo Bao, Li Yuan, Zhu Qiang, Liang Zhuang, Wu Yuan and others had their own errands and could not return to Chuzhou, so they also prepared a funeral and sent it to the city gate.
They all knew that Qiu Wei would be different in the future.
Tang Guang's 5,000 men and horses are now under the name of the child soldiers, but they will become independent troops in the future.
Qiu Wei is no longer an ordinary Qu Chang and a scout captain, under Huo Bao, not to mention the status of Huo Bao and Hou Xiaoming, it is not much worse.
Envy is envy, but envy can't come, this is Tang Guang's legacy, and it is also the weight of the five thousand people.
Hou Xiaoming and Huo Bao are now starting to lead the army independently, and they are very calm in their hearts.
Li Yuan already has his own positioning, which is different from the generals.
The remaining leaders understood in their hearts, but they couldn't help but get nervous.
No matter what the reason, there was a Li Yuan in the past, and now there is Qiu Wei, and they are all coming from behind.
If they don't follow closely, they will be left behind.
Especially Zhu Jian and Liang Zhuang, their feelings are the most complicated.
The former's position in the Scout was replaced by Li Yuan, and the latter was reduced to the mean.
Huo Bao left five hundred child soldiers by his side as personal soldiers, and the captain of the point was Zhu Gang, which also made Liang Zhuang's heart very sour.
Yesterday, Huo Bao drew his own soldiers, and the captain's candidates were Wu Yuan, Zhu Gang, and Liang Zhuang.
As a result, Huo Bao directly ordered Zhu Gang and asked Liang Zhuang to be Huo Bao's deputy, and Wu Yuan was left to Hou Xiaoming.
Liang Zhuang didn't know that with such a distribution, Huo Bao was already sympathetic to him.
Otherwise, according to the combat power, Wu Yuan should be left to Huo Bao to make up for Huo Bao's poor fighting; Liang Zhuang, who was a little mediocre, went to give Hou Xiaoming, who was good at fighting.
It's just that Huo Bao thinks that Liang Zhuang and Hou Xiaoming are the same group of captains, the same group of captains, and the same old qualifications, so he is afraid that he will have a pimple in his heart.
Because Huo Bao is Huo Bao's nephew, he has been different from others since he became a scout, and no one will be stupid enough to compare his qualifications.
Huo Bao has a lot of things to care about, and these are the only ones who can take care of these scouts and old people, and the rest depends on their own efforts.
Everyone has different abilities, and they are destined to reach different heights, and they are also helpless.
As for why he didn't leave the best captain of Wu Yuan's most personal soldiers, it was because Wu Yuan was a general, and it would be useless to keep him as the captain of his personal soldiers.
Among the leaders of the Scouts, only Wu Yuan and Shi San had the intention of attacking.
These two people have been trained well, and they are both characters who can lead an army on their own.
Zhu Gang's qualifications are ordinary, but he is diligent, a heavy knife, he has already played a good role, and he is loyal, and he is a person that Huo Bao can trust.
On Hou Xiaoming and Huo Bao's side, Huo Bao was not worried.
Facing Li Yuan, he gave a few more instructions: "This time, you took those three hundred staff officers and the Great Sage to Hezhou, and also recruited people from the gentry in Hezhou City according to the example of Chuzhou...... I couldn't explain what a staff officer was for a while, so I used it in the name of my personal guard entourage...... Looking back, the children of Chuzhou will keep what they can keep, and those who can't stay will be refunded part of the ......"
Now the soldiers of Chuzhou are rich and have three counties.
The Chuzhou army can choose people.
As for Luzhou here, he has already released his words to choose a personal guard for the little marshal.
It's just that, for the sake of stability, it is inevitable that there will be extraneous branches, and there is no rush for this matter.
When Jinling is taken and Luzhou is stabilized, people will be selected from the six counties.
Thinking of this, Huo Bao added: "The children of the gentry are not only limited to Hezhou City, but also the three counties of Hanshan County, Jiangpu and Wujiang...... Let's go by two hundred......"
Li Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Master Bao, can the vacancy of Chuzhou staff officers be filled by selecting people from Quyang and Binjiang?" ”
Huo Bao nodded: "But, I was negligent before, Quyang County is where the Chuzhou Army is located, and Binjiang County also has a different meaning, and the children of the gentry in the two places should also be ......."
As for Lingshui County, it is still under the rule of the Bozhou Army, so it can be omitted.
It was occupied by the Bozhou army for more than half a year, and even if it returned to the Chuzhou army in the future, it would not be able to distinguish between black and white personnel, and it was not suitable for reuse.
After saying goodbye, Huo Wu's father and son and others helped Tang Guang's coffin and set off on the road.
Until everyone walked away, the building ship here in Watergate also set off.
……
In the city of Chuzhou, the owner of the horse village was a lot haggard.
When he received the funeral report last night, he was very flashed.
Tang Guang is a land-sitting household in the Black Python Mountain, and the two have known each other for more than ten years.
Everyone is of the same age, and they are all broad-minded, but they are all peaceful, and occasionally they get together for a drink or something.
Unexpectedly, this person said that he was gone.
Even if the Chuzhou army is here for funeral, the widow must be notified first.
There is a difference between men and women, the owner of the horse village is not good to go to the funeral alone, and he can't bring the concubine to the past, fortunately, Xiuxiu came back from Binjiang two days ago, and took Xiuxiu to go.
Just in case, he also called a doctor from the medical officer of the Bao family to follow.
Tang Niangzi is a very honest person, and when she heard that the owner of the horse village was coming, she was uneasy.
Of course, she is not inquisitive, but she also knows that the owner of Ma Zhai is the general guard of the Chuzhou army, and she is in a high position, and she will not go to her door if she has nothing to do.
The owner of the horse village and Xiuxiu both changed into plain clothes.
When the owner of the horse village said the funeral letter, Tang Niangzi's face was full of defeat, and her body collapsed, her face was not painful, but full of remorse......
