Chapter 438: Accept all the heroes for a while
Wei Zheng couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it anymore.
Although the Taishou, the county commanders, the governors, and the generals from various prefectures who came from various counties, although they were also surprised by Luo Cheng's bold plan, they did not speak out against it.
After all, he is popular now, he has the privilege of accepting the throne, and he is allowed to act cheaply, he said that he wants to do this, so be it. In fact, many people saw that as soon as Luo Cheng took office, he promoted many old relatives and friends to the position one after another, and their hearts were also itching.
Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling were only county lieutenants two years ago, even if they were promoted before, they were just county orders and county masters, and Luo Cheng's light, both of them had just been promoted to county officials, and Luo Cheng now directly promoted the two of them to Taishou, how enviable this is.
Let's talk about Qin Qiong and Zhai Rang, originally one was a county military captain and the other was Fa Cao, but now one has been promoted to the county captain and the other to the county Cheng, this increase in speed, that is really a leap.
Not to mention that such cadres as Shan Xiongxin, Cheng Biting Jin, Xu Shiji, etc., were originally just local powerful landlords who trained a village bravery, and now they are also grandly awarded as the county military captain of a county.
Follow Luo Cheng to have meat to eat.
In the hall of the Qi State Mansion, Luo Cheng simply reached a plan with a group of officials to establish a local standing armed force in Henan.
Each of the twelve counties has a standing county barracks of 500 men and a standing government barracks of 800 men. And Luo Cheng, as the commander-in-chief, formed a standing army of 5,000 people. Zhang Xutuo, as the deputy commander, organized a standing army of 3,000 people.
It was twenty-three thousand six hundred men in total.
Luo Cheng directly selected and appointed the captains of the county battalions and the government barracks, basically his old subordinates of the Fifth Army on the left as the lieutenant and deputy colonel, or the old friends and brothers such as Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shiji.
In this regard, Luo Cheng did not shy away from it at all, not only entrusted his brother-in-law Shan Xiongxin and second cousin Qin Qiong with important tasks, but even the eldest brother and second brother Chengzong also arranged a school captain.
As for the preservation of filial piety, not to mention, everyone leads a battalion.
He even sent the head of the county, the long history, and the Sima to the county battalions, in short, the money and food, the equipment, and the officer leader, he also came out, what he wanted was that the counties were out.
He also unabashedly revealed that after the formation of this army and horses, he wanted to firmly grasp the intention in hand, of course, no one raised the slightest objection.
For those Taishou, anyway, this involves military soldiers and horses, and they can't intervene as civilian officials. And it turned out that those officials in charge of the county soldiers and soldiers such as the county lieutenants and county officials were also happy that Luo Cheng was willing to take over this hand.
Anyway, as long as their official position has not changed, they will be tossed with Luo Cheng, and they don't want them to pay money and food, if they really practice and have an effect, they will also have merit if they have eliminated the bandits. If there is a problem with the toss, it will naturally be Luo Cheng's responsibility at that time.
Originally, the county soldiers and the government soldiers were two separate systems, led by the commander and the county commander respectively, but now, with Luo Cheng, the ambassador of comfort and arrest, he easily broke through the obstacles in this system and integrated the soldiers and horses of the two systems.
It's only a partial integration, but it's still quite impressive.
Launched a plan and selected generals.
Luo Cheng announced the implementation one after another, and all the civil and military officials silently looked at this thunderous boss, and did not come out to oppose it.
In just half a day, Luo Chengcheng finished his work smoothly.
The next thing is to execute, Donglai's weapons and equipment, the grain in the granaries of each county, and then the local selection of county soldiers and government soldiers as standing soldiers.
"I'll only give you a month, although it's going to be the New Year now, but this year will only give you a few days, and you will start to catch up after the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. A month's time is not for you to choose people slowly, but for you to not only choose people well, but also have a minimum of training to run in, so that you can pull out to fight. ”
When the deliberations are over, it is time for the feast.
The atmosphere of the banquet was much more relaxed.
Shan Xiongxin, Xu Shiji, and others also introduced the friends they brought to Luo Cheng.
Among these people, Luo Cheng values Niu Jinda, Su Dingfang, Bing Yuanzhen and Zu Junyan the most, Niu Jinda and Su Dingfang are both from Hebei, among which Niu Jinda and Cheng Yanjin are the same age, but Su Dingfang is still very young. Both of them are the families of the official eunuchs of the scholar family, and they are very brave in martial arts, especially now that they both have brought a township regiment, and they have fought with the bandits several times, but they have never been defeated, and they are somewhat famous.
This time they came to see Luo Cheng, but they also wanted to defect to Luo Cheng, after all, Luo Cheng made a name for himself in Liaodong, and his deeds made many young people's blood boil.
"If the two of you are willing to come to me, I am very welcome, and I am temporarily wronged by the two of them to serve as the head of the team, I don't know if you are willing?" Luo Cheng deliberately only gave a low position.
As a result, neither of them cared, Niu Jin was in his early thirties, named Niu Xiu, his father was the county commander in Hebei, and he himself was good friends with Cheng Yanjin, and he was very brave and martial arts.
"If you can follow Luo Shuai, even if you are a pawn, you are willing to do it." The old cow said very freely.
And Su Dingfang is a martyr, he is just twenty-one years old this year, in fact, he is one year older than Luo Cheng, but compared with others, twenty years old is relatively young, he followed his father Su Yong, his father is a local hero, and his martial arts are very strong.
This time, he left his father to join Luo Cheng, hoping to make a contribution.
"Thank you Luo Shuai for being able to take it in." Su Lie said happily.
Bing Yuanzhen and Zu Junyan are both local officials in Henan, one is a captain of the military academy and the other is a scholar of Dongping County, Zu Junyan is short and dark and very ugly, but his writing talent is very famous, there were ministers who recommended him to Yang Guang to enter the province of history, but the emperor thought he was too ugly and did not use him, which made Zu Junyan very angry.
"Would it be good to ask my grandfather Qu Cai to join the army under my account?"
"Thank you Luo Shuai for being willing to use so." Zu Junyan had been observing Luo Cheng just now, and seeing that Luo Cheng did not have the slightest disgust or dislike after seeing his ugly face, he was already very grateful in his heart.
As for Bing Yuanzhen, Luo Cheng arranged for him to be an assistant lieutenant to help Zhai Rang.
When no one was there, Wei Zheng smiled and whispered to Luo Cheng, "You are so aggressively recruiting local tyrants in Henan, and you are still using relatives and friends like this, you are too preoccupied, so you are not afraid that someone will impeach you for forming a party and saying that you want to rebel?" ”
The word rebellion Wei Zheng bit very hard.
Luo Cheng was not frightened at all, just smiled with a flat face, "I, Luo Cheng, am only twenty years old, and I am only twenty-one after the New Year, just the age of Chengding, and I have just returned from Liaodong for the rest of my life. ”
Wei Zheng stared at Luo Cheng, "The key is whether you want to rebel?" ”
"Hahaha, what do you say?"
Wei Zheng shook his head, he couldn't guess or understand, although Luo Cheng's current behavior was a little out of bounds, but it was only a little out of bounds, and it was too far to say that he was rebelling.
"Boy, you take it easy, the movement is so big, beware of pulling the eggs." Wei Zheng had to reluctantly wake up Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng laughed, "I'm familiar with you, but I'll beat you if you talk nonsense." ”
"Duke Qi, there is a holy decree in Luoyang, the eastern capital, please welcome the holy decree." The family came to report.
The emperor's decree was issued from Luoyang, and the edict Feng Luo became the head of the 100,000 sailors in Donglai, responsible for leading the 100,000 sailors out of Donglai County, crossing the sea into the Yalu River, and arriving at the city to join the army.
In the emperor's decree, Luo Cheng led his army to the sea in March, arrived at the mouth of the Yalu River in April, and must arrive at the domestic city by the first day of May.
Holding this holy decree, Luo Cheng could only sigh.
