Chapter 592: Liu Fan Travels to Hanzhong
"It's a shame that the minister is not good at military affairs, and he is defeated by a one-meter thief. Now that General Long Xiang is stationed in Hanzhong, he will be able to fear the traitors and make the traitors dare not step into Hanzhong. β
Liu Fan deprived Su Gu of his military power, and Su Gu did not complain.
Su Gu is a person who supports the wind, and the scholar is born in filial piety and honesty, and he does not know the art of war at all.
Yesterday's events, Su Gu vividly remembered, thieves entered the city, there was no way to retreat, there was nowhere to hide, the city was full of thieves.
If Liu Fan hadn't come to support him at this critical moment, he would have died in this Nanzheng City.
Zhao Yun Sugu has also heard of it, he is one of the five tiger generals, Liu Fan's henchman.
With him, Liu Yan definitely didn't dare to be presumptuous.
Zhao Yun heard Su Gu's words and bowed his hand to Su Gu.
"Prime Minister, this is Zhao Song, the chief bookkeeper of the minister's mansion, who has the courage of hundreds of enemies, and the talent of participating in the important affairs and governing the county. This is a stereotype engaged in in the minister's house, and it is also capable of writing and martial arts, and has the courage to be a good prescription. Earlier, he advised me to set up a pass in the area of Mt. Rice Cang, but because I was narrow-minded and did not listen, I came in person. Zhao Song and Chen Tiao stayed in my mansion for too much use, knowing the prime minister's energy and talent, the minister recommended Zhao Song and Chen Tiao to the prime minister, hoping that the prime minister could measure it. β
Su Gu pointed at Zhao Song and Chen Tiao and said to Liu Fan.
Liu Fan looked at Zhao Song and Chen Diao behind Su Gu.
Zhao Song is eight feet tall and has a majestic figure. He has a very upright complexion, the style of a literati, and the fierceness of a martial artist.
Chen Diao is seven feet seven inches tall, well-dressed, his eyes are bright and revealing an unruly straight wind, like a wise man, and like a light man.
"Yesterday's statistics showed that there were 20,000 soldiers under Zhang Lu and Zhang Xiu's command, and 5,000 soldiers from Hanzhong County. I plan to recruit 15,000 more soldiers in the Hanzhong area. A total of 45,000 dragon horsemen with Zilong were stationed in Hanzhong. There is a lack of generals in the army to command the training, but I didn't expect Su Taishou to send two generals to me. β
After Liu Fan observed Zhao Song and Chen Tiao, he said happily.
Liu Fan has the deepest impression of Zhao Song, looking at his momentum, it is estimated that his strength can be compared with Zhou Cang.
And Chen Tiao's ability to dedicate the tactics of garrisoning Mt. Micang shows that he has a unique vision.
"I am willing to serve the prime minister with a humble and humble learning."
Zhao Song and Chen Tiao bowed to Liu Fan at the same time.
"I have made the two captains of the school, and for the time being, I will be under the orders of General Long Xiang to help General Long Xiang train soldiers. The day when you become an elite soldier is the time to go south to pacify Guanzhong. β
Liu Fan helped Zhao Song and Chen Tiao up, and directly made them military attachΓ©s.
"Thank you, Prime Minister!"
Zhao Song and Chen Tiao were overjoyed, and at the same time thanked Liu Fan.
"Among them, 20,000 soldiers have surrendered, Zilong must grasp it well. If someone doesn't want to join the army, let them return to their hometowns as soon as possible and recruit for vacancies. Those who remain are treated equally. The deployment of troops in Hanzhong was all deployed by Zilong. The 10,000 cavalry I brought, when I go, will be brought back, for the present, the war in Liangzhou is more important. β
Liu Fan said to Zhao Yun.
"No!"
Zhao Yun gave up his hand.
"Bai Lan is the deputy general of the Hanzhong Army under Zilong, Zhao Song and Chen Diao are good talents, and they must be carved well. I want to pacify the world, but I can't do it with the Five Tiger Generals alone. β
Liu Fan instructed Zhao Yun.
"Many of the generals in the army are from General Huang's subordinates, and Zhao Yun also hopes to train a few generals who can take charge of their own affairs for the prime minister!"
Zhao Yun said with a flushed face.
He was the first time he had truly commanded an army, and he was still very excited.
"After the military is dealt with today, tomorrow I will go to the counties of Hanzhong to investigate. And I will write a letter to warn Liu Yan. I also hope that Bashu can be pacified soon, but now is not the time. β
β¦β¦
In the next few days, Liu Fan led his guards from west to east to explore the counties of Hanzhong.
Liu Fan of Nanzheng, Chuyang, Baozhong, Chenggu, Anyang and other Hanzhong counties entered the city one by one to check.
Every time he enters a county, Liu Fan must ask the county order to talk. He also talked to the people of the county in person.
As a result, half of the county orders in Hanzhong were deposed by Liu Fan. It's not that Liu Fan is nitpicking, it's really that some people can't take on the big responsibility.
North of Daba Mountain, Xicheng County.
Liu Fan found that the area north of Daba Mountain was flat and suitable for farming, but this area was all wasteland.
There are also many places in Hanzhong, which are good places in Tuntian, once a large number of Tuntian, just relying on the taxes of Hanzhong, can easily feed more than 40,000 troops in Hanzhong.
When he came to Xicheng County, Liu Fan did not make as much fanfare as he did when he went to other counties.
Liu Fan stationed the dragon bird guard in the wilderness in front of Daba Mountain, and then the white dragon fish suit, only took Dian Wei, Xu Chu and a dozen other people, to a township in Xicheng County.
Xicheng County is already very close to Hanzhong and the West, and it is far away from the place where Zhang Lu, Zhang Xiu and Sugu fought, so the war did not affect Xicheng County, and the people's livelihood in Xicheng County is relatively stable.
In August and autumn, in a field that is crisscrossed by Qianmo, a group of men, women and children are hoeing grass in the crop field.
The irrigation of the tributaries of the Han River in this area has caused the crops to grow very well, and the people are also in full swing.
The sound of horses' hooves appeared in the boundless wilderness. The people stopped what they were doing and watched with their hoes.
I saw more than ten horses coming from the west, and immediately even Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others were wearing cloth clothes, and the people didn't know the identities of Liu Fan and others, but they were definitely not robbers.
Hanzhong County was very chaotic as early as the Guanghe period, robbers were everywhere, and the Taishou and officials were embarrassed and treacherous, and it was dark.
As a result, when Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhang Xiu's Five Doumi Sect rose up and attacked the county.
After Su Gu took office, he appeased the people and appointed capable people. The Wudou Mi Sect was temporarily pacified, and Zhang Xiu also retreated to Ba County.
Zhao Song was brave and good at fighting, and repeatedly cleared out the robbers and persuaded the robbers to return to Nongsang. It calmed Hanzhong for several years.
Until Liu Yan's ambition broke the peace of Hanzhong.
When Liu Fan and the others came to the edge of this field, they restrained the horse, turned over and dismounted.
Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others followed Liu Fan and dismounted across the sword.
"Don't be surprised, fellow villagers, we are too shou fu officials, and we are on the order of the too shou to send a message to the county order. Passing by here, I came to see the harvest in your county. β
Seeing that men, women, and children were dumbfounded, Liu Fan stretched out his hand to stop them and said amiably.
"Xiaomin meets the adults!"
The people hurriedly bowed to Liu Fan.
"I'm just a small official, why should the villagers be polite!"
Liu Fan hurriedly stopped an old man with a hoe.
"The great popularity is Yu Xuanang, and he has more spirit than the county commander, how can we despise it! The harvest has been good in the past few years, but we can get too little by renting other people's land! It's just barely enough to eat. β
The old man saw that Liu Fan was so approachable, and then looked at Liu Fan's temperament, he couldn't help but sigh a little.
"The prime minister is in Hanzhong, have you heard of it?"
Liu Fan asked the old man and the people around him.
Liu Fan knew that these people were all tenant farmers. Such tenant farmers are all too common in Dahan.
