Chapter 305: Political Marriage
In order to boost morale, Yang Lin agreed with everyone that in the future, it will be expanded in real time according to the performance of each town, and after each town is expanded to the four-standard (regiment) system, he will be promoted to the general soldier.
The generals were beaming with joy and geared up one by one, declaring that they would make meritorious contributions in the future and strive to be promoted to the commander-in-chief as soon as possible.
At the same time as the expansion of the army, arrangements were also made for local officials, and Liu Xuanchu, the former governor of Hezhou, was appointed as the prefect of Hanzhong
Ma Hongyuan, the former governor of Dazhou, was the prefect of Gongchang Prefecture
Shoguna Li Chongyan is the governor of Xing'an Prefecture.
At the same time as various personnel appointments, Yang Lin actively carried out military deployments.
Liao Qifang, the deputy general of the 4th town, was appointed as the commander of the Xiliang capital, and with Hanzhong as the base, he led the 4th town and the deputy general Yao Chonglie to march into Longdong to fight for the land of Longnan in Qinzhou.
Liu Tichun was appointed as the commander of Yunyang, with Xing'an Prefecture as the foundation, and with the support of Wang Fuchen's naval army, he led his troops down the Han River to capture Yunyang.
Yang Bingyi, the deputy general of the 5th town, was appointed as the commander of the Hanzhong Prefecture to eliminate the scattered stragglers and re-establish local order.
He ordered Yang Cheng's 1st Town, Longzhi's 3rd Town, Jing Keqin's 6th Town, Feng Youqing's 7th Town, Wang Shuji's 8th Town, and Wang Zhibang's 9th Town, and returned to Sichuan to quell the rebellion together with Bu Ning's 1st Cavalry Association.
Now that various parts are scattered in Hanzhong, Xing'an Prefecture, Gongchangfu and other places to attack the city, it will take time to complete the change of defense, and those towns that have no combat missions at present have returned to Sichuan one after another to relieve the pressure on food supply in Hanzhong.
Hearing that the main force of the Volunteer Army was ready to retreat, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, in the past few months, when the war in Hanzhong was in full swing, Li Gande instigated Yuan Tao, Wu Dading and others to launch a rebellion in Yunnan, everyone had already been angry, and now everyone is most looking forward to being able to return to the division as soon as possible to quell the rebellion.
However, Hanzhong is the place of four wars, and its strategic position is very important, although Liao Qifang, Yang Bingyi and others have only led the army in the past, but this time they have taken on such a heavy responsibility, and they are excited, and they also ask for strategies one by one.
Looking at the map in front of him, Yang Lin thought for a long time and said: "Since the invasion of Sichuan, the Qing army has suffered defeats, and after the news spreads, its rule will inevitably be unstable.
Just like these rebellions of the Hui people, but the rabble, it is difficult to shake the foundation of the Qing army. You need to take the initiative to attack like Wei Yan, so that the Qing army will not be at peace.
In this way for two or three years, after the rebels in the rear are pacified, I will definitely go on another northern expedition, and in the face of the exhausted division of Mongolia, I will definitely be able to win the battle. ”
Wei Yan? Although the generals under the account had heard many commentaries, they mostly thought that Wei Yan was a traitor, and they had no impression of how he defended Hanzhong.
Yang Lin fell into a wry smile, since the Song Dynasty, the status of the military has been low, many people do not read, and the war completely relies on experience, courage, brute force, and little knowledge of military common sense.
Since the beginning of the army's leadership, although literacy classes have been set up in the army, and generals and soldiers have been organized to study, hoping that they will be able to read and hyphenate and absorb useful elements from traditional tactical methods, there is still a long way to go.
Looking at the map in front of him, Yang Lin patiently explained: "Everyone, the Barbarian Qing has always told us that Shu and Wei are fighting, do you know how Wei Yan is stationed in Hanzhong, and how Jiang Wei is stationed in Hanzhong?"
After pondering for a moment, He Zhen smiled and said: "My lord, on that day, Liu Bei met the ministers and asked Wei Yan for his strategy, Wei Yan thought that if Cao Cao came with the strength of the country, I asked to block him for the king, and if it was a partial general who came with an army of 100,000, I asked for the king to annex him." ”
Yang Lin said with a smile: "Deputy General Counselor He, that's right, although I am not Liu Bei, but the generals who guard Hanzhong must also show Wei Yan's courage."
The reason why Wei Yan can have such courage is that he guards all passes, so that Cao Wei cannot enter.
Let's think about it, along the way there are high mountains and deep ravines, Cao Wei comes to fight one by one, how many people will die here, and how many people will be needed? Wei Yan has been guarding Hanzhong for more than ten years, and Cao Wei has never entered Hanzhong.
Jiang Wei is different, although the Romance of the Three Kingdoms touted it too high, but in terms of military talent, it is far inferior to Wei Yan. He ran to the middle of the village to avoid trouble, and he changed Wei Yan's active defensive strategy, so that Wei would drive straight into the Sword Pavilion.
Let's think about it, when the Wei army hit the Sword Pavilion, it means that Hanzhong has already been lost. ”
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized.
Thinking of the defeat of the Qing army that day, He Zhen suddenly realized: "My lord, I didn't understand why I lost Hanzhong in the past. ”
Yang Lin looked at He Zhen, pondered for a moment and said: "Deputy General Counselor, Sun Tzu once said that generals need to be wise, faithful, benevolent, brave and strict, if according to different positions, the requirements are completely different.
As a sentry officer or below the officer, brave first, if you hesitate on the battlefield, dare not fight and kill, dare not fight hard, do not say that you lead troops to fight, your soldiers are not as good as you.
As a general, the general or something, is what we often say about the general, pay more attention to wisdom, faith, benevolence, courage and strictness, you have hundreds of thousands of hands, if you can organize everyone, hundreds of people and thousands of people are like one person, everyone works together, so how can the other party help me?
As a deputy general, he has nearly 10,000 brothers under his command, who is often referred to as handsome talents, who need to command and coordinate various departments, not only need the quality required by the generals, but also need to be familiar with all kinds of military books, integrate them, and command them on the battlefield in daily training to win the final victory.
Outsiders laughed at me, saying that our volunteer army currently has 16 general soldiers, but this is just to continue to temper everyone's ability to be generals, and to appoint various supervisors to coordinate various departments according to the characteristics of the war, so as to temper everyone's ability to command future battlefields and campaigns. ”
He Zhen was shocked, if you talk about ability, the ability of the soldiers of the volunteer army is far above that of the late Ming Dynasty.
It is rumored that the famous generals Mangui, Zuo Liangyu, and Gao Jie at the end of the Ming Dynasty were illiterate, and they relied entirely on courage on the battlefield.
The main general is still like this, and the generals under him can be imagined.
The Volunteers are completely different, and the captain has more than half a year of military training?
Each brigade has a secretary general, each division has an assistant, and every regiment, brigade, and town has a supervising army.
When He Zhen and Liu Tichun heard this, they nodded in agreement.
Yang Lin continued: "Everyone knows that there are many Tartar cavalry, but if they are in the deep mountains and ravines, they are not our opponents at all.
After you occupy the counties along the way, and then divide your troops to attack me every summer, when the cavalry of Bu Ning and Yao Chonglie can also be divided into three, go deep into the enemy's territory, and catch the hardcore traitors and execute them all. In a few years, the Tartar will find that although he controls the entire land of Guanzhong, we control the hearts of the people of Guanzhong. ”
When everyone heard this, they applauded.
After rewarding the three armies, Yang Lin left Liu Xuanchu behind and said: "Brother Liu, the Tartars invaded, although the Dashun army collapsed, but there are many capable people and righteous people under him, and now they are scattered everywhere to do their own thing, you say, what can I do to gather them and use them for my use." ”
Liu Xuanchu pondered for a moment and said: "My lord, treat him sincerely, and see the hearts of the people for so long, so that these Dashun generals who are scattered all over the country will naturally return to Lord Shun." ”
Yang Lin smiled: "Brother Liu, of course I know the importance of treating sincerely, but you know that sometimes it is my heart that is looking for Mingyue, and Mingyue is looking for a ditch, how can I make them feel my sincerity?" ”
Liu Xuanchu pondered for a moment and said, "My lord, many generals generally adopt the method of accepting their sons as brothers. Just like that Mao Wenlong took in hundreds of godsons in Phi Dao, which caused the godsons to be overcrowded.
There are also brothers with different surnames, just like Liu Guanzhang, Liu Bei and the first to follow him as brothers. ”
Yang Lin nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, what else can I do besides this?"
Liu Xuanchu pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "My lord, if you don't object to the humble position, you are willing to be a matchmaker for the adult, and complete the adult's marriage." ”
Yang Lin was taken aback, shook his head and said: "Brother Liu, although I also eat sex, I still teach with affection, you see, this kind of thing is ......" ”
Liu Xuanchu said with a smile: "My lord, this time I went to meet He Zhen, Liu Tichun and others, and saw that Liu Tichun has a woman, who is twenty-eight years old, has read books, can play the piano, and is still unmarried."
My lord, you are a hero in the world, and now there are only two women, which is too thin, it is better to accept her as a concubine, so that you can not only calm the hearts of the generals, but also take them in. ”
Yang Lin was shocked in his heart, stood up and went back and forth for a long time, and then slapped Liu Xuanchu heavily and said, "Brother Liu, this matter will trouble you." ”
Liu Xuanchu was overjoyed and turned to leave.
Ma Fengyu glared at Yang Lin fiercely, and added a fire to the side with a silent expression, the weather in Hanzhong was very cold, and the atmosphere in the whole room was quite embarrassing.
Yang Lin smiled for a long time: "Fengyu, you won't blame your husband, sometimes you really have to be in love." ”
Shaking his head, his voice trembled: "I, I'm just a little concubine, after my sister died of illness, the county lord is the greatest, how can I object?" ”
Yang Lin was shocked, helped him up and said: "Fengyu, I, I, you don't know, people, some things are really involuntarily."
Yang Lin felt that his throat was tightly plugged by something, and suddenly he was impulsive, hugging Ma Fengyu and kissing wildly.
What made Yang Lin feel strange was that Ma Fengyu's body was a little stiff, and he suddenly pushed Yang Lin away, ran to the side and vomited.
Yang Lin looked at Ma Fengyu's strange appearance, patted his shoulder and said, "You, what's wrong with you?" The weather in Hanzhong is quite cold, look at you, your body looks very good, but why can't you help but be cold? ”
Shaking his head, he put one hand on his stomach, and pulled Yang Lin with the other hand and said, "Xianggong, I, I, I have it." ”
Yang Lin was overjoyed, hugged Ma Fengyu with a horse, and said with a smile: "Oh, is it? I'm so happy, you know? In our time, this is the crystallization of love, and this is our ....... ”
Ma Fengyu looked dazed, and looked at Yang Lin in surprise.
Liu Tichun was having dinner with Li Chongyan, and after seeing Liu Xuanchu push open the gate of the post station with a glorious face and come in, he beckoned him to sit down and said: "Prison army, it's too unexpected, I thought I would be snubbed a lot when I came over this time, after all, we follow the adults halfway."
But this time, the Lord only reorganized me and He Zhen's department into a regiment, He Zhen was appointed as the deputy general counselor, and I was also promoted to the general soldier.
After arriving in Hanzhong this time, the military pay was repaid, and the resettlement allowance for the old brothers in the past was also promised to be paid quarterly.
It's really unexpected, adults treat me better than old brothers. ”
Liu Xuanchu bowed his hand to Liu Tichun and said, "Mr. Liu, in addition, I want to say hello to you." ”
Liu Tichun looked at a loss, looked at Liu Xuanchu and said: "The prison army, I am a big boss, if there is any happy event or not, the prison army should not beat around the bush." ”
Liu Xuanchu said with a smile: "Chief soldier, didn't you see that you had a daughter, young and beautiful, when you were in the cottage that day, and I heard that you haven't been married yet?"
I have watched the heroes and heroes of my volunteers, and only one person can be worthy of Ling Ai. ”
Liu Tichun was shocked in his heart, and leaned forward and said: "The prison army is the prison army, adults often say that the prison army is to manage life, you say, who is this hero?"
I'll take care of it. ”
Liu Xuanchu picked up the wine glass, Xiao Min took a sip, and said, "Chief soldier, what do you say about us adults?" ”
Liu Tichun was shocked, his hands trembled, the wine spilled on the ground, and he looked at the other party's voice that seemed to be smiling and said, "My lord, that, that adult?" ”
Liu Xuanchu stood up, clenched his fists and arched his hands: "Of course, Lord Yang Linyang, the governor of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu, General Liu, you, how about you talk about us?" ”
Liu Tichun didn't care about the wine glass, straightened up and said: "Adults are young heroes, they are today's saints, such heroic figures, it's too late for my old Liu to always want to get close, what, how....?"
Liu Xuanchu smiled and said: "Chief soldier, what is even more rare is that there are only two people in our lord's mansion, the county lord and Mrs. Ma, you don't see how the lord is to the monarch's mother, but you also see the feelings for Aunt Ma."
The monarch's mother is thin and can't go out with the adults, while Mrs. Ma likes to show up all day long to take care of the female soldiers and the field hospital.
I don't know where the adults heard the news of Ling Ai.,Today, everyone is scattered and will stay in the next.,It's going to be the matchmaker.。 ”
Liu Tichun was overjoyed and said, "Prison Army, is this true?" If Lian'er can choose a good son-in-law like an adult, my Liu Erhu's face will be much brighter. ”
Liu Xuanchu nodded yes again and again, and Liu Tichun was so happy that he danced with his hands, and immediately agreed on how to accept the lottery and how to give a dowry, and at the end of the day, he even asked people to bring a few catties of beef and claim to be treated.
The news that Yang Lin was going to marry Liu Tichun's daughter Liu Lian'er quickly spread throughout the camp, and everyone came to the tent to ask for a treat, and some even claimed to be a direct round house.
The main reason for marrying Liu Lian'er this time is to win over the generals of Dashun, to give face is to give face to yourself, in order to achieve the purpose of encircling the generals of the righteous army, Yang Lin, who has always been thrifty, actually made a special event this time.
