What the monarchs of Eastern Wu were thinking, of course Guan Da Sima, who was thousands of miles away, didn't know. However, in Guan Yi's opinion, it is okay for Eastern Wu to take advantage of the situation to attack: welcome to the northern great plains to learn the power of our cavalry. If you don't come, I won't have time to deal with you, because the whole Ji Han is already too busy at this time.

Unlike the previous victory over Yongliang, this time Ji Han swallowed the entire eight states of Kanto in one bite, and the huge workload brought by it was extremely amazing. Not to mention anything else, Shi Jian Wushuang, the governor of the Liufu Prefecture, had already rushed from Chang'an with nearly seventy percent of the personnel of the Great Sima Mansion, just to stabilize the order in the eastern part of the country.

On June 26, Luoyang Kaecheng surrendered. After Guan Yi comforted Sima Yan with kind words, he gave him five days to slowly clean up the things in the Luoyang Palace - your fiefdom, the name of the marquis or something, I can't overstep my authority. That's a matter for Your Majesty. So, after you pack your things, let's go to Chang'an. Anyway, now Huayin and Tongguan have been unimpeded, and it is very convenient to go back and forth.

However, out of the bad taste of the traverser, Guan Yi still wrote a letter to Liu Chen in private, suggesting that Sima Yan be named the "Marquis of Destiny".

"Oh, I gave Sun Hao's title to Sima Yan in advance, and Sun Hao's family also surrendered in the future, what should I do with him?"

This kind of relief is only a short moment, because there are so many things to be busy with next.

First of all, Guan Yi reported to Liu Chen: "Your Majesty, there are many affairs on the Kanto side, and the minister may not be able to return to Chang'an in a short time." Therefore, in addition to asking Jian Wushuang to lead most of the staff of the Great Sima Mansion to Luoyang to work, please also send my family members over. As a father, my two children are almost two years old, and I haven't seen each other once, so I can't say it. ”

This kind of move is considered very excessive in the eyes of most people in this era: the ministers have been leading the troops for a long time, and they are not in a hurry to return to the court after the battle, and they actually ask the emperor to send their families over. What the hell do you want to do?

But Liu Chen approved it immediately after receiving Guan Yi's letter - this is actually to tell the world that the relationship between Ji and Han monarchs and ministers is still in absolute trust with each other, and he thinks that Da Sima has made a great contribution and wants to use this to separate our monarchs and ministers, so he can rest.

Next, of course, is the adjustment of the army.

When Ji Han's Eastern Expeditionary troops reached Luoyang City, there were 170,000 and 60,000 at home. After the opening of Luoyang, there were more than 260,000 Jin prisoners. Of course, all of these nearly 500,000 young and middle-aged men cannot be left to serve as soldiers—the state cannot afford to support them, and there is a serious shortage of civilian labor at this time.

Therefore, large-scale demobilization must be carried out.

"Da Sima, this is a disarmament plan made by the army commander Shi Yamen, please take a look."

"Huh? Uncle Fang, it's only been a few days since we entered this Luoyang City, why did we come up with a plan so quickly? ”

"Hehe, weren't you trapped under Luoyang City a few months ago? Xiaguan thought that we would take Luoyang sooner or later, and of course we had to take precautions for this matter. ”

"Well, Uncle Fang has such thoughts, I am very relieved."

Huo Zai's new scheme is:

First of all, it is proposed to merge the Sizhou where Luoyang is located into Yongzhou, which was originally one state in the Eastern Han Dynasty. After that, the five counties of Longxi under the jurisdiction of Yongzhou were included in Liangzhou - in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the five counties of Longxi also belonged to Liangzhou.

After that, the newly established Dayongzhou was taken as the direct territory of the imperial court, and on this territory, the key industries of the country were concentrated, and the kings were not allowed to be divided.

Then, under the reality that Northern Jingzhou and Northern Yangzhou, which were originally owned by the Wei and Jin dynasties, were basically taken away by Eastern Wu taking advantage of this Han and Jin war. Ji Han currently has 11 prefectures of Yi, Yong, Liang, You, Ping, Hebei, He, Qing, Yan, Henan, Xu and part of Jiaozhou, with a total of 200,000 troops.

The configuration of these 200,000 troops is: 15,000 in Jiaozhou, 15,000 in Yizhou, 10,000 in Liangzhou, 15,000 in Youping and the three prefectures, and 10,000 in the four inland states of Jizhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou. With Wancheng as the core, the Nanyang Corps was rebuilt to defend the Jingzhou Corps of Eastern Wu, with a planned quota of 20,000. The Xuzhou Corps, which rebuilt and defended the Yangzhou Corps of Eastern Wu with Pi as the core, had a planned quota of 20,000.

The remaining 95,000 people were all stationed in Yongzhou. It is the mobile force of the whole country. Its status is similar to that of the Chinese army in the Wei and Jin dynasties.

"Well, reducing the army to 200,000 should be enough. Just the source and composition of these two hundred thousand? ”

"Da Sima, that's what my subordinates think. Before and after our expedition, we drew too hard against Ding Zhuang in the three states of Yiyongliang. Therefore, on the premise of retaining the original 60,000 people, the 170,000 people of the Eastern Expedition were demobilized 100,000. Later, among the 260,000 captives of the Jin State, 70,000 were selected on the merit. ”

"Hmm...... However, according to this official's opinion, the original old Chinese army, Tongguan garrison, Jingzhou soldiers, and Yangzhou soldiers of the Jin State are still good. These guys have been soldiers for so long, and the fact that they suddenly retreated to the countryside is also an unstable factor. Then do it, let your subordinates polish it and bring it to the official seal. ”

"Yes."

"By the way, how much are you going to give the demobilized soldiers?"

"This is really embarrassing. Yesterday, Xia Guan went to visit Brother Wushuang, and the court is not short of money now. It's just that if you give less, it will make the demobilized soldiers feel cold, and if you give too much, I'm afraid that the brothers who stay in the barracks will be unhappy......"

"Hahaha, this matter is easy. More points are enough. In this way, of the 170,000 people in this crusade, in addition to the last 10,000 to join, the remaining 160,000 people will each send 10,000 first. Well, the ones who came to support with the general of the chariot cavalry later, three thousand each. Those who performed valiantly on the battlefield were to be reported by the chief officers of each department in the form of songs. Let's set the quota at 10%! Soldiers who were rated as valiant were given an additional five thousand ...... each However, this officer told you that in the front, the selection of heroic soldiers is mainly submitted by the chief officer. But if you want to publicize the whole song, you also have to take the initiative to contact the ICAC of Chang Ji and let his people enter the army to listen to the voice of the soldiers......"

"Oh, the subordinate will receive the order. Belch...... In this way, it is 1.715 billion, well, it's okay, Brother Wushuang said that the treasury can at least come up with more than 5 billion severance pay. ”

"Huh? So many? Well, the soldiers who died in battle were 20,000 each, and the disabled ranged from 15,000 to 18,000 depending on the degree of physical damage. ”

"Well, the lower official has written it down."

"The resettlement of the remnants is also very important, and you must pay close attention to this."

"Please rest assured, Da Sima, this point, the Yamen of the lower officials has a precedent to follow."

"It's different, the family here in Kanto is much more powerful than the family in Yongliang. And the family members over there basically ride horses, and they are not too **. Most of the families on this side of the Kanto region have taken Wushisan to toss their bodies and collapse, not to mention riding horses, and the road may not be able to move. However, the more rotten these people are, the less they take the military seriously. Therefore, the reason why this official agrees with the placement of standing troops in Jizhou, these inland states, is because of this. ”

"Xia Guan understood. It is better to raise the remnants of the army for a period of time than to let them take office alone when the layout of our army has not yet been completed. ”

"Good, that's what the official meant. So let's move on to the resettlement of demobilized personnel, this money really can't be too much. On the premise that there are already 10,000 per capita, if the officers and soldiers of the Eastern Expeditionary Army are demobilized, they will be given another 3,000 settlement allowances per person. In the same way, those who were newly recruited from the Jin State would receive a settlement fee of 3,000 per person. The prisoners of the Jin Kingdom were put back, hey, many of them have been sent, so it would be good to send a thousand pressure convulsions per person. ”

"Suppression? Hahahaha, oh, the lower official wrote it down. In this way, it will not exceed the budget of Musou. It's just Da Sima, the arrangement and stationing of these 200,000 troops, and the army commander Shi Yamen can do a good job. It's just that the main generals who sit all over the place ......"

"Hahahaha~~ What's there to worry about this?"

"Da Sima, why aren't you worried! To tell you the truth, the generals of my Han Dynasty, you and the generals below, if you want to say who has the ability to do anything, Ling Xing and Ciqian are barely one. The rest, including the lower officials themselves, are actually a little powerless to sit on one side for a long time. Now, our Han Dynasty has taken the eight states of Kanto in one fell swoop, and while the territory has expanded dramatically, the number of handsome talents needed has never been greater. And the general has already died....... so for this matter, the subordinates are all in pain. ”

"Uncle Fang, no handsome person is born, and before facing Deng Ai, this official only fought a few barbarian villages. Therefore, it seems that the generals who do not have the ability to do anything now, give them opportunities, and they can often grow up. Besides, are there still few handsome talents in Luoyang City? ”

"Huh? Da Sima, do you want to reuse the Jin generals? ”

"Of course, these are the essences cultivated by Wei and Jin for decades, how can they be idle? Well, speaking of which, the time is almost up, come, come with me to the outer temple and meet them! ”
