Chapter 17: Decision-making (I)
When Gongsun Xun had just arrived, because he had chatted too much, he suddenly had a hot brain and raised the difficult things he encountered with his henchmen last night. *With* Dream *Small* Say .lā
Of course, after saying that, I regretted it a little...... It's too reckless.
However, he never expected it, and then he was surprised that the other party could give a positive answer so neatly.
"What Ling Jun is worried about should be that the regulations of the county order make it impossible for you to gather enough troops, and if you entrust this matter to the Taishou, or even unite with the surrounding county Taishou, it will be difficult for the credit to fall to Ling Jun?" The judge asked seriously.
"Exactly." When things came to this point, Gongsun Xun naturally calmed down and answered calmly. "Is there anything you can teach me in the south?"
"As far as I know," the judge said calmly. "This dynasty has always had too many soldiers and horses, so once the war is linked, the center will directly recruit and hire troops on the spot from the order, and these temporary soldiers and horses are not only Han troops...... I came from Liaoxi, and I didn't know how many Xianbei and Wuhuan were afraid of Sinicization along the way, so why didn't you follow Huang Zhongyi's example and recruit one or two from the temporary? ”
Gongsun Xun shook his head again and again, and then suddenly laughed out loud...... He is not mocking the trial, but mocking himself, as a child of the border county, he actually forgot this stubble? Do you need to review to remind yourself? It's really confusing!
That's right, it is difficult to obtain soldiers and horses within the system of the Han Dynasty, but outside the system of the Han Dynasty, or outside the semi-system, there are soldiers and horses...... It's about the various semi-Sinicized minority tribes that live on the border line.
In other words, of course, there was such a little bit of nationalism in these years, but in the vicinity of the Han Dynasty, this kind of nationalism was more of a one-way nationalism. In other words, the father of the Han Dynasty discriminates against everyone else, and you are not allowed to secretly pretend that you are Han, and then all the ethnic groups around it, except for a sandalwood locust who is both iron and a little capable, most of the rest also follow the father of the Han Dynasty to discriminate against themselves...... Didn't you see that the mushroom king was dumb and dumb, wearing a straight coat and a beam crown, pretending to be an old Confucian student?
And the Nadi tribe...... Gongsun Xun may have been influenced by his own mother, so his values are a little crooked, and he felt unreasonable when he saw the official document from the Di clan in Shangshutai! The poor Di people farmed in Longxi, and since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was placed under the governance of Han County, they have planted the land for a small 300 years, and the standard Sinicized farming people, but no one is willing to give people a nationality of the Han Dynasty, no matter how they ask for it, it is also pitiful!
According to Gongsun Auntie, what later dynasty actually rebelled every day because of what changed the land and returned to the southwest...... It's also incomprehensible!
All in all, these ethnic minorities on the border don't care who they want to fight with, and it can even be said that in addition to being a little weak in fighting with the Han people, they have no scruples about turning back to fight their own people...... As long as there is a reward, the idea of allegiance is generated over time, and most of them are allegiance to a single person, and it has nothing to do with the nation or the country.
For example, the Huangzhong Yicong mentioned by the trial is actually a Qianghua alien race who moved from the Western Regions, but in the battle between Duan Xi and Xiqiang, he was extremely brave, so that the name of Xiliang shocked Xiliang, and the Xiqiang people and Duan Xi specially shouted to Huangzhongyi to fight them when they were fighting, and this mercenary did a certain level.
And back to the present, in fact, there are similar tribes specially raised by the imperial court here in Youzhou...... That's right, it's the Wuhuan people. And with Gongsun Xun's specifications, he is naturally not qualified to summon the large Wuhuan tribe in the system, but he is qualified to use his reputation, family background, official position, and financial resources to summon all the Zahu and middle- and lower-level Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes within his sight!
To say more, Mo Hu Qi and his extremely Sinicized Mo Hu Xianbei tribe are the most commonly used vassal tribes of the Gongsun clan...... And I heard that this guy has been getting worse and worse lately.
……………………
Late at night, after the reception banquet of the match, Gongsun Xun called out to Lu Fan, Lou Gui, Wang Xiu, and Han Dang, who was called back by the temporary fast horse...... And, of course, there's the judging myself.
Then the six of them came to Zhao Yun's courtyard to hold another small banquet, but the autumn wind was trembling, but they did not let the maid serve for a long time.
"Is it possible?!" Lu Fan asked seriously, all his knowledge of the five counties outside Youzhou was temporarily known in the past two months, so he was really confused.
Of course, from another point of view, Lu Ziheng's rapid and superficial questioning has a vague feeling of being 'right' for himself - you must know that the arrival of the trial has affected his originally unusually stable position. It's just that he, Lu Ziheng, is not a stupid person, and naturally knows that there will only be more and more talented people under the command of his lord in the future, and as the first private minister of Gongsun Xun, he must not only correct his posture, but also be vigilant.
At this time, to ask a question that must be asked in front of everyone, in fact, the significance of preemptive is far greater than the question itself.
"Feasible." Han Dang put down his wine glass and was the first to respond, he was a native of Liaoxi, so he answered crisply. "I haven't figured out the direction of Liaodong to Lelang, but just from Liaoxi to Xuansu, there are no less than tens of thousands of miscellaneous hus that can be gathered, and they are even known as the hundred tribes. Moreover, even many Wuhuan heads and Xianbei heads who are registered in the imperial court and Danhan Mountain, if they have money to share, they are willing to bring troops over to do private work...... It is even said that after Shaojun burned the bullet sweat, his reputation shocked the northern Xinjiang, and this group of people may not dare not come when they are recruited! ”
"Is there so much of a miscellaneous beard?" Even the trial who put forward the opinion was also stunned for a while, and the chopsticks in his hand were temporarily stopped. "I just saw a lot of tribes attached to my Han on the road, and then exchanged trade, but I didn't expect it to be on such a scale?! Tens of thousands of miscellaneous beards, if they are gathered, will they develop a disaster like the Xiliang Zhuqiang? ”
"How can something like a dog be a disaster?" Gongsun Xun, who was sitting at the top, said unimpressedly. "What we should be worried about is the fighting power of these people...... Don't look at what they claim to be hundreds of tribes, and then there are tens of thousands of people, if the main force is really frustrated, they will run faster than anyone else! When I was a child, I heard the elders of the clan say that when Tanshihuai was just emerging, the Xianbei people followed behind, and our Han army went out to sweep them and they also followed. ”
"Shaojun is right," Han Dang raised his glass with a smile. "Even if you want to follow the army to fight the autumn wind, you also have to pay attention to your background and strength, what hundreds of tribes, what tens of thousands of people, which local people don't know? It's just that the mess is too messy...... However, the Mohu Department of Mohu is a rare orthodox Xianbei tribe in western Liaoning, and it is rare that the skills of a few people under that kid are not bad. ”
"That's what I want." Gongsun Xun calmly said about the case. "Mohu Xianbei, Duanbu Xianbei, Wuhuan people shout out two more decent heads, and there will be three thousand elites...... Then we will select seven or eight of these miscellaneous ones who can have two or three hundred young people, and let them beat the side drums to fight with the wind, and this will basically be able to assemble an army that can barely fight. ”
"But it's not enough!" When Han Dang heard this, he couldn't help but put down his wine glass and persuaded him. "Shaojun, you still need a Han army that can hold down the position! The 1,000 civil defense can only be a rearguard, and it is better to have another 1,000 real Han army elites! ”
Gongsun Xun slowly bowed his head: "Indeed, the most powerful of these tribes is seven or eight hundred people, according to their temperament, our Han army has to be the largest to command them...... At least 1,000 elites! And preferably cavalry! This is how to have enough battlefield dominance! ”
"And Shaojun," Lou Gui, who had not said much, also said slowly. "If you want Mo Hu to come over from Liaoxi, I'm afraid you can only summon them through the Amway, right?"
Everyone was silent for a while, but the judge was slightly puzzled: "Lingjun, when I visited the old lady before, you asked me not to talk about Goguryeo, why is this?" Could it be that the old lady does not want to see this matter promoted? ”
"Yes, yes." Gongsun Xun smiled awkwardly. "My mother didn't want me to be in the limelight anymore...... The specific reasons will be discussed slowly later. ”
The judge knew that there was a difference, so he bowed his head slightly for the time being, and did not ask any more.
"If that's the case," Wang Xiu, who was also participating in this kind of meeting for the first time, couldn't help but interject. "Once the army is launched, according to the Appropriate Talent Lingjun, I am afraid that there will be seven or eight thousand people at that time...... Although such a large army only went to nearby Goguryeo, the logistics supply was still huge. If the state and county are not allowed to come forward at that time, where will the people, grain and grass come from? ”
Gongsun Xun was speechless for a while...... Have you just filled in a seemingly impossible pit, but found so many new pits one after another?
"An elite cavalry of at least a thousand men; channels for the mobilization of the tribes; Logistics supply ......" Seeing that everyone was silent for a long time, Lu Ziheng continued to act as the summarizer of the meeting. "That's it."
"Let's not talk about that." Gongsun Xun suddenly smiled and raised his glass and asked. "Uncle Zi and Zi Heng talked with the mushroom king in the courtyard all day and didn't come out, how did they talk?"
"This dumb and dumb is cunning and cunning." Lu Fanfang was about to speak, but Lou Gui had already put down his chopsticks angrily and opened his mouth. "Last hour, I patted my stomach and said that I could pull Huan Na, who was also excluded and suppressed, and then two of the five must be able to do internal responses; In the next hour, he suddenly said that it was all nonsense before, but in fact, what did he really rely on the 1,500 palace guards, because he had been the commander of the guards; When we were so angry that we were about to leave, he pulled us to say something before it was all a temptation, this time he was acting alone, and all he could rely on was his own people......"
"Two meanings." Lu Fan added helplessly. "He did come to ask for foreign aid to destroy Ming Lindafu, and he was determined. But if he can't see the real powerful people, he won't tell the real dependence. ”
"Just let him come to me right away." Gongsun Xun said disapprovingly.
Everyone bowed their heads...... Goguryeo is just like a county of the Han Dynasty, one of the patriarchs is still as down-and-out as a lost dog, what else can the lord of his own family talk to him about with a Xiangping county order?
However, those three things make people worry......
"Don't worry about it." Seeing this, Gongsun Xun smiled again and raised his glass. "It's better than having no clue at the beginning, and the following questions seem to be more small means to hide from the world, and if you think about it, there must be...... You all go back and wait for my news, and by the way, the righteous man will call the dumb and worrisome man. ”
Everyone hurriedly raised their glasses and said goodbye.
This is Zhao Yun's inner courtyard, so once it is over, people will leave cleanly, and no one will stay, but if it is a little leaning, the dumb and worried but shy stomach will come in with Han Dang.
PS: Thank you Mo Shaoyan for the fifth cute, I am grateful.
