Chapter 28: Subtlety
To say that Ye Xun is really not afraid that his actions will be exposed and reported in the future?
He is really not afraid, because he knows that from ancient times to the present, officialdom has always had a good tradition, that is, to hide from the top and not from the bottom.
From the moment he crossed over, he used the miracles he continued to create, so that the soldiers and people of Tieling were completely subdued under his altar, and in his words, he would also move out of the palace from time to time, which made officials at all levels in Tieling believe that he was sent by the emperor, so no matter what he said now, the people below would be convinced.
But Ye Xun still missed one person, that is, Ma Lin and Ma Zongbing, who should have been killed by Nurhachi after the loss of Kaiyuan.
Others can not worry about private soldiers with Ye Xun, how can Ma Lin not care? These more than 1,000 people used to be his soldiers, but now they are requisitioned by Ye Xun privately, what's the matter?
More than 1,000 people went back with Gong Quanan, and most of them were officers, Gong Quanan could pretend not to know anything in order to please Ye Xun, and those officers who didn't get benefits, how could they keep this secret for Ye Xun?
In fact, to put it bluntly, Ye Xun's prestige and power are not big enough, and when he can control everything in Liaodong, those people can't drive away.
The reason why Ye Xun asked Liang Zhen and Zhang Qi to do this was that on the one hand, it was indeed to train them, and on the other hand, how many soldiers in Tieling were reported by Li Rulong, and Ye Xun didn't know how much water there was.
Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated, and the first thing to do is to know oneself.
After the meeting, Gao Ying cooperated with Liang Zhen and Zhang Qi to go to the Tieling Wei military camp, and Chang and Song, the two deputy thousand households, naturally had to follow, and in the blink of an eye, Ye Xun and four hundred households were better in the hall.
These more than 1,000 people will be trained by the lineage in the future, so Ye Xun plans to learn from some training methods of later generations to train these people.
"Ladies and gentlemen, first of all, our family is grateful for the support of the generals, not to mention that there are many in our family, as long as the brothers fight bravely to kill the enemy and do not betray our family, our family will share the blessings and hardships with the brothers."
After listening to Ye Xun's statement, the four of them immediately knelt down on one knee and intervened in Ye Xun's hand: "We will swear to follow my father-in-law to the death, if we violate this word, people and gods will abandon it."
Ye Xun generally doesn't believe in other people's swearing, but of course he can't say this.
nodded and said: "We believe that you and other loyal people, the country is at the time of employing people, our family hopes that in the future you will use practical actions to prove yourself, before you are not familiar with everyone, all report your name"
"Subordinate An Wanshan, Han Lin'er, Wei Liquan, Zhang Baoguo"
Ye Xun nodded, and continued: "There are more than 1,000 people, but there are only 400 households, I have to work hard for you, our family will be rewarded in the future, you go back now to register all the brothers, and then hand over the roster to our family, and inform the brothers to practice tomorrow."
"I also want to tell the brothers that those who have the ability can recommend themselves, and only if they have real talent and real learning, our family will definitely make an exception in appointing them, and after three days, the whole battalion will hold a military competition, and select the military attachés at all levels who are insufficient."
After Ye Xun finished ordering, the four of them intervened again and said, "Get the order!" ”
When everyone left, Ye Xun couldn't help but rub his brows, saying that the 21st century is the most lacking talent, but in fact, that era is different?
The top priority now is to discover a group of talents who are willing to use them for their own use and have outstanding abilities.
Ye Xun remembered that later generations had seen a lot of things about Liaodong Jiangmen on the Internet, this era is like this, a number of resources are in the hands of those wealthy families, generals, or families, and if you want to find capable talents among the poor, this kind of opportunity is not nothing, but it is too difficult.
Historically, when the Manchus entered the Central Plains, it was not the Jurchens who rushed to the forefront, but those traitors who surrendered, slaughtering the Han people, even more than the Jurchens.
And most of these people are Jiangmen in Liaodong, so Ye Xun rejected them from the bottom of his heart.
Although the current Liaodong is in turmoil, it is not like a piece of jade that has not yet been carved, as long as it is carved carefully, it can also make this place rejuvenated.
Now, Ye Xun is going to be this jade carver.
In the southeast corner of Tieling, there is a low bungalow, most of which are made of mud and look very dilapidated, and the sound of banging can be heard inside.
Many houses have no doors, and from a long distance, you can see some strong men with their upper bodies, wielding hammers in their hands and constantly beating the objects in their hands.
Ye Xun couldn't imagine that this was actually the arsenal of Tieling, and there was not even a single soldier standing guard on the periphery, and there was only a low earthen fence around it, which was considered a wall, how simple and simple it was.
As far as Ye Xun knows, the craftsman industry was not a noble profession in ancient times, and it was considered the lowest level of society, so people who engaged in this industry basically lived a very difficult life.
After arranging the affairs of the mansion, Ye Xun came here under the guidance of a guard.
Killing the enemy on the battlefield is not only based on the bravery of the soldiers, but also with advanced and sophisticated weapons, so the second thing Ye Xun has to do is to improve the treatment of craftsmen, so that these people can give full play to all their potential and wisdom.
Countless facts and historical materials in later generations have proved that the ancestors of the Han people are the wisest in the world, and there is no one.
Ye Xun doesn't like pomp and circumstance, there are only a few guards around him, a gray cotton robe, mink fur hat, if he doesn't identify himself, no one can see that he is a eunuch, although his deeds are spread everywhere in the city, but not many people have really seen him.
However, the person who can have guards around him is obviously also an official, so when Ye Xun stepped into the earth enclosure, he still attracted the attention of the people inside, but the people who worked only looked up, and then what should they do, but there was a person who looked like a steward and walked out of the thatched hut on the side.
The steward is about forty years old, not tall and slightly fat, full of alcohol, and the most characteristic thing is that he has a mustache, which looks very funny.
The steward burped and asked, "This lord looks very eye-catching!" Dare to ask the adults who are..."
The guard beside him was just about to speak, but was stopped by Ye Xun raising his hand, glanced at a sleepy wooden pole piled up on the wall, and said lightly: "Don't ask me who I am, let me ask you, how many arrows, knives and guns can be made here in a day?" Don't you have to put these things in the warehouse? Also, where is the room here? Take me to see it."
asked three questions in a row that made the steward stunned, although he drank a lot of wine, but he hadn't drunk too much, and he knew that the person who could ask these questions must be the person who could manage him.
Hurriedly said cautiously: "Wait a minute, how many of these weapons are made every day are in the account book, but they can't be shown casually, and please tell the villain your official position, and then give it to the adult after the villain records it."
also knew that he would do it according to the rules, Ye Xun couldn't help but look at the steward with a smell of wine again.
Seeing that Ye Xun didn't stop it again, the guards on the side shouted: "I'm blind to your dog's eyes, I don't even know Grandpa Ye, I don't think you want to be an official anymore."
"Poof!"
I heard that the young man in front of him was the famous Ye Gonggong, and the drunkard steward was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, kept kowtowing, and said: "The villain didn't know that Ye Gonggong had arrived, so he begged his father-in-law to spare his life."
Ye Xun didn't know what Gonggong Liu had done before, but he felt that this person seemed to be particularly afraid of eunuchs.
Wen Yan said at the moment: "Get up, don't blame those who don't know, you can do things according to the rules, it's very good, but in the future, when you are on duty, you must not drink anymore"
The steward obviously didn't expect Ye Xun to be so easy to speak, looked up at Ye Xun, and couldn't help but be stunned...
