Chapter 543: False Son of Heaven
"Although I want to set the country down, but there are those who are not subordinate, they are still rampant! The world is so big, I have only pacified the northwest corner, and the division is not stable. As long as you move forward side by side, the pawn can also be a general, and the general can be enlarged. It is not impossible to inlay ten thousand households on the lintel! Look at me, back then I was just a down-and-out pavilion marquis, who would have thought that I have today? ”
Liu Fan encouraged Guan Yu and Xu Rong.
"We will help the king to pacify the world."
Guan Yu, Xu Rong and the others were hot in their hearts and said in unison.
"I encourage you to do so!"
Liu Fan returned the salute.
On the same day, after returning to Luoyang, Liu Fan stationed Xu Rong's soldiers and horses in Xin'an County, and put them under his nose.
After the battle against Dong this time, Huang Zhong recommended Zhang He, a general under his command, to Liu Fan. and elaborated on the meritorious exploits made by Zhang He.
Liu Fan immediately praised Zhang He as the general of Beizhonglang, and asked him to recruit 20,000 strong and strong among the people, stationed on the eastern border of Sili, Yangwu, Zhongmu, and Kaifeng counties, to guard against the Kwantung princes.
The 20,000 soldiers, except for the lieutenant and Sima, were pure recruits. Not even a war horse. Although there are weapons, bows and arrows, the standard weapons and armor are far away in Yanmen Iron City and have not yet been delivered.
Zhang He has always been known in history for making good use of camp formations, skillfully changing troops, and being good at using terrain, but Liu Fan wants to test Zhang He's training ability.
Let him train a real infantryman, the main force for his future crusades.
Although the battle was won by a great victory, there were also 10,000 dead and wounded.
Liu Fan ordered the soldiers to be buried and their families to be commemorate.
Yinshan Iron Cavalry, Trap Camp, and Longxiang Cavalry lack men and horses, and select elite soldiers.
The establishment of the army is incomplete, and brave and brave men from the townships in the subordinate areas are recruited.
Because of Liu Fan's prestige, the people of Sili came to join the army. The young man and young man saw the cruelty of the battle, and in order not to be swayed by traitors anymore, they all wanted to join King Zhao's army.
But Liu Fan only recruited 50,000 young people out of the millions of young people in various places.
Of these, 20,000 went to Zhang He, and 10,000 supplemented the armies.
The remaining 20,000 soldiers and horses were all handed over to Xu Huang.
Liu Fan officially created the four expeditions and four towns generals, and the rank and Lu were both two thousand stones, but the status varied. The rank of the Four Expedition generals is above that of the Four Towns Generals.
Liu Fan named Zhang Liao as the general of Zhenbei and Gao Shun as the general of Zhenxi.
He also named Xu Huang as the general of the expedition to the east, and Guan Yu as the general of the expedition to the north. Huang Zhong was the general of the expedition to the west.
Zhao Yun is still General Long Xiang, and Liu Fan increased General Long Xiang's rank and Lu from 2,000 stones to 2,000 stones.
Many of the other generals have also been promoted.
Liu Fanbiao Zhou Cang was the general of Kou, Dian Wei was the general of Huwei, and Xu Chu was the general of Fenwu.
The rest of the Feng Zhonglang generals were thirteen, Sima was promoted to captain, fifty-six, and Sima was promoted to one hundred and thirty.
So far, there are 30,000 cavalry under the command of Yu in the entire Sili area, and 4,000 iron cavalry in Yinshan.
Xu Huang commanded 20,000 cavalry infantry and 20,000 infantry.
There were 10,000 cavalry infantry under Gao Shun and 1,000 in the camp.
Zhao Yun rode five thousand dragons.
Huang Zhong commanded 10,000 cavalry.
Zhang He commanded 20,000 infantry.
Xu Huang commanded 20,000 infantry.
Duan Xuan commanded 10,000 infantry.
A total of 150,000 soldiers and horses were hoarded in the subordinate area. This kind of power is even more powerful than when Dong Zhuo was the strongest.
Liu Fan also said that Xun Yu was the middle of the imperial history, supervising the affairs of the imperial history.
Jia Xu is still the secretary of the order, and the government affairs that come from all over the country must pass through Jia Xu's hands.
Table Gaixun is Henan Yin, Zhao Wen is Hongnong Taishou, and Sima Zhi is Luoyang Ling.
Huangfu Song is the left general, and Zhu Wei is the right general. These two people have too high prestige and talent, Liu Fan plans to give them a vacant position first, and then use them later.
The rest of the princes and ministers of the three princes and nine kings of the two thousand stones, Liu Fan did not move for the time being, because he was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.
Hedong Taishou was still Wangyi, and Liu Fan ordered Gao Shun, the general of Zhenxi, and Huang Zhong, the general of Zhengxi, to lead his subordinates to enter Hedong.
Gao Shun and Huang Zhong were stationed on the opposite bank of Fenglingdu, and it seemed that they could attack Fenglingdu at any time.
Liu Fan ordered Wang Yi to build a ferry between Shangjun and Hedong, so that supplies from the north and south could be transported to each other more conveniently.
Dong Zhuo plundered gold and silver money, Liu Fan took out 50 million money, 50,000 red gold, 3,000 platinum and 300 gold to reward meritorious soldiers.
The soldiers cheered, their morale was high, and they all wanted to fight again.
In just two months, with the help of Jia Xu, Xun You, Huang Wan, Cui Lie, Chun Yujia, Zhou Zhong and other important ministers, a complete order was established with the Prime Minister's Mansion as the mainstay.
Important matters are discussed, the county order is appointed and dismissed, the order is executed, the order is issued, and the order is returned, all in the prime minister's mansion.
Led by Wang Yun, Zuo Ling, Chong Fu and others, he wanted to make the power of the imperial court overpower the Prime Minister's Mansion.
But the hearts of the people and the army are all returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the people know that there is no emperor, and they are all serving the king!
The complete order soon settled the people for a while.
East to Yuanwu County, Yangwu County, Kaifeng County, Zhongmu County.
South to Songshan, Huoyang Mountain, Funiu Mountain, as well as Xinzheng, Yuanling, Yuyuan Pass, Dagu Pass area.
It was sent to the Yellow River for a generation, and west to the entire Hongnong County.
The people in these places have returned one after another, and Liu Fan attaches great importance to the selection of petty officials such as county orders and county magistrates.
As long as there is a county order and a county magistrate who are selected, Liu Fan will personally invite the county magistrate and county magistrate to enter the prime minister's mansion.
Liu Fan is different from Cao Cao, he doesn't like to "employ people in troubled times, regardless of morality." He has always liked to have both ability and integrity.
As a county magistrate, you can be small, not without virtue. If the county order is not virtuous, the people will be bullied.
At the same time that Liu Fan became famous, many celebrities came to worship him.
Anyone who enters the Prime Minister's Mansion will be personally received by Liu Fan. Some talented scholars Liu Fan will be included in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and some people will be invited to the counties as county orders.
Liu Fan talks to people, never impatient, kind and pleasant, not at all the kind of arrogance of the world's first fierce general, which makes people from fear to convincing.
Because Liu Fan is fair and just, many poor scholars rely on Liu Fan.
One day, ten people of insight came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to meet Liu Fan.
Liu Fan greeted each other and discussed with them, until the time of the child, he would not see the end, in order not to make others wait for a long time, Liu Fan didn't even have time to eat.
Under the word of mouth of the officials of the Prime Minister's Office, this behavior of the corporal is well known. It has left the reputation of "Shibai Gate, Ten Greetings".
Some people say that Liu Fan is as authoritarian as Dong Zhuo, and calls Liu Fan a fake son of heaven. The authority of the palace minister is gone, and Liu Fan does not establish the Son of Heaven, just like the true Son of Heaven.
Some people take Liu Fan and Dong Zhuo for this.
is also an authoritarian government, but Liu Fan and Dong Zhuo are diametrically opposed, and the two form a stark contrast.
Under Liu Fan's rule, even a pavilion chief didn't dare to disobey his will. The prefectural order became conscientious.
The soldiers didn't even dare to say a word to the people about the rope that tied their hair, and they didn't commit any crimes in the autumn in the townships and counties they passed. And most of the military advisers helped the people to establish temporary living places, and the soldiers and civilians enjoyed themselves.
Dong Zhuo forcibly recruited the scholars, and if he didn't come, he would kill the whole family. Liu Fan was the prime minister, and the scholars came from thousands of miles away, and they were willing to worship under his door.
