Chen Chun, who was in charge of logistics, counted all kinds of data on the battlefield and reported them to Jin Liang and said: "In this battle, 3,562 officers and soldiers were killed, of which 1,941 were from the Fifth Colonel of the Northern Army under the command of Lord Lu Zhi, and only 1,621 people were actually killed in our army.

Jin Liang wanted to ask, "Why did you die so little?!" "It is unbelievable that 40,000 officers and soldiers fought against 110,000 thieves, and only more than 3,000 people died. When the words came to his mouth, Jin Liang swallowed it back again, as the lord, he couldn't say such stupid words, this kind of words would definitely be thought by his subordinates that he was inconsiderate of his subordinates' lives and would shake the hearts of the army. Although there were not many people in the late Han Dynasty who would take the lives of the soldiers under their command seriously, they did a race on the surface, "loving soldiers like children", Jin Liang, a guy who had a little bit of humanity, had to make a gesture of cherishing the lives of soldiers. Jin Liang thought about it carefully, if he didn't use a bow and crossbow to ambush at the beginning, which made the front army of the White Wave Thieves chaotic, if it wasn't for Jin Liang taking advantage of the situation to kill a number of enemy generals and making the enemy army feel depressed, if it wasn't for the 6,000 cavalry to encircle and outflank Guo Tai to take the lead in abandoning the army and fleeing, then the official army would be besieged by the White Wave Thieves all over the mountains, even if it was finally victorious, it would be a tragic victory of destroying the enemy with 1,000 self-injuries and 800 injuries. At that time, I am afraid that the number of officers and soldiers killed in the battle will be tens of thousands.

Jin Liang hid the pride in his heart, and asked angrily: "How many soldiers are disabled?" ”

Chen Lin said: "The officers and soldiers wounded 8,457 people, of which 4,932 were from the Fifth Colonel of the Northern Army under the command of Lord Lu Zhi. Only 3,525 people were actually disabled in our army, and most of them were lightly wounded, and less than 500 were actually seriously injured or disabled. ”

Jin Liang put on a sad expression on his face, and pointed to a low mountain in the distance: "Kong Zhang, this place is backed by Taihang, and the Yellow River in the south is a treasure land of feng shui. You personally wrote a memorial to pay tribute to the soldiers who died for our great cause. ”

Chen Lin hurriedly ordered to go down and let people start digging graves on the top of the mountain.

Jin Liang asked again, "How many enemy soldiers have been captured?" How many enemy troops have you killed? ”

Chen Lin hurriedly recited: "Our army has captured more than 55,300 white wave thieves and more than 4,600 Shanyue barbarian soldiers. get rid of those who are too disabled to be reorganized, and a total of 50,000 white wave thieves and 4,000 Shanyue barbarian soldiers will be obtained; Our army killed more than 23,000 white wave thieves and more than 3,700 Shanyue barbarian soldiers, and more than 10,000 white wave thieves and more than 2,000 Shanyue barbarian soldiers fled between the northwest mountains, because the Taihang Mountains are very large. Our army had neither the energy nor the time to go into the mountains and move into the mountains. They had to be allowed to escape. ”

Jin Liang was overjoyed that he had paid the price of more than 2,000 people. It was gratifying to bring such a great result, but there was no joy on his face. just nodded at Chen Lin and motioned for him to start writing the sacrificial text. Jin Liang supported Lu Zhi to board the boat upstairs and meet the Empress Dowager He Lian and the Young Emperor Liu Bi. played a series of situations that Chen Lin had just told him, and at the same time gave a detailed account to Ma Ritan, Yang Biao, Huang Wan, Liu Hong and other ministers.

Young Emperor Liu Wei was ignorant, and just now he saw the heroic posture of his father Jin Liang galloping across the ranks and killing enemy generals from the binoculars given to him by his mother, so he shouted: "Queen Mother, Jin Qing's martial arts are strong, it is better to let him be my master...... Teach me martial arts, right?! ”

Since the Empress Dowager He Lian has secretly asked Liu Wei to worship Lu Bu as Shang's father. Naturally, she would not refute the request of the young emperor Liu Wei, and she thought that the title of martial arts master might be able to cover up the previous father.

The Empress Dowager He Lian is now gradually regretting it. At that time, she asked Liu Wei to worship Jin Liang as her father, half of which was fooled by Jin Liang's statement that the Emperor of Heaven was the Emperor of Spirit, and the other half was stunned by the telescope that Jin Liang came out, after using the telescope for a few days, she no longer had the surprise of the day, and people gradually calmed down, plus her mother Hua Yangjun and her cronies Pan Ming often fanned the flames in her ears, and her trust in Jin Liang began to be reserved.

The Empress Dowager He Lian's cheeks bloomed slightly, and her red lips opened slightly: "What is the invitation of the Son of Heaven, what does Jin Qing want?" ”

Jin Liang was forced by Empress Dowager He to worship himself as Shang's father on a whim that day, and now, he is still a little afraid, if Lu Zhi and other ministers loyal to the Han family know about Shang's father, how to look at himself, Jin Liang basically has a negative view, so he is also trying his best to cover up, seeing that there is now a great opportunity to overshadow Shang's father, so he smiled and said: "Weichen is willing to teach the Son of Heaven martial arts."

The Empress Dowager He Lian nodded: "That's very good." You escorted the palace and the Son of Heaven to Xiangyang this time, and when you encountered such a ferocious thief, you can have such a result, it is because you command it properly and use the troops in a good way, and the palace is very pleased, and when you arrive in Xiangyang, you will be rewarded. ”

The ministers were stunned, the great merit should be rewarded if it was not deserved, how could it be postponed for many days, I really don't know what the Queen Mother thinks.

Jin Liang's face was as calm as water, and he smiled slightly: "But it's up to the Queen Mother to decide." ”

After getting off the boat, Jin Liang's face was gloomy, how could the Empress Dowager He be so abnormal, there must be something strange in this, and it is necessary to find out what happened as soon as possible, so that the Empress Dowager He has reservations about her trust.

Jin Liangfei got on his horse, urged the Red Rabbit Horse, and came to Gao Shun, who was in charge of reorganizing the White Wave Thief and the Shanyue Barbarian: "Zhongping, what is the situation now?" ”

Gao Shun said: "Tell the lord, for these 50,000 white wave thieves and 4,000 Shanyue barbarian soldiers, we have found that more than 1,400 white wave thieves are indiscriminately killing innocents, raping and plundering, and more than 800 Hun cavalry are extremely vicious and unwilling to accept Sinicization; After a ten-mile race of standing in a military posture and carrying weights, we eliminated more than 38,000 white wave thieves who were very weak in constitution and will, and more than 1,100 Shanyue barbarian soldiers who were weak-willed, restless, and unable to obey basic orders, and obtained a total of 12,000 elite reserve soldiers, totaling 10,000 white wave thieves and 2,000 Shanyue barbarian soldiers. ”

Jin Liang nodded and praised: "Zhongping, you did a good job!" In this battle, your trapped camp has made great contributions, so it is better to make up for your trapped camp by 2,000 more people, and make up enough 4,000 people to make two songs. ”

Gao Shun shook his head. said bluntly: "The lord is kind, Gao Shunxin has it." First of all, our army has very little heavy armor, only more than 2,000 sets, and secondly, these white wave thieves are malnourished, most of them are short, and it is difficult to bear weights, and those Shanyue barbarian soldiers can only be cavalry and cannot be infantry, because of these two reasons, even if I want to expand the camp, I can't do anything. Furthermore, there is no need to expand the number. At least the 2,000 people in front of them are already enough. ”

Jin Liang nodded: "Then select some capable people from other battalions to fill your current two thousand establishment." ”

For the Shanyue barbarian cavalry, Jin Liang originally didn't want to use these aliens who had been stained with the blood of the Han people, but later considering that the cavalry was really difficult to cultivate, he could also use these Shanyue barbarian cavalry to deal with Wuhuan and Xianbei. Let them dog-eat-dog. And he was relieved. In fact. As long as these guys can be brainwashed successfully, they will naturally become good knives that are sharp in their hands and do not hurt their hands. As for who would command the cavalry of the two thousand Shanyue barbarians, Jin Liang thought that Zhang Liao and Xu Huang were both generals who were good at commanding the cavalry. Which one should I choose?

It's still Zhang Liao, he is a general in Bingzhou, and it is impossible to say that he will not give him this more elite Shanyue barbarian cavalry.

Jin Liang ordered Zhang Liao to command the Shanyue barbarian cavalry, but Zhang Liao fell to his knees and apologized: "Please take back your order, anyone can lead Hu Cai, only the last general." ”

Jin Liang frowned: "Why?" Zhang Liao made a face: "The lord has forgotten that the last general is a native of Yanmen Mayi, originally a descendant of Nie Yi, my ancestor moved the plot of Mayi, but unfortunately the success was lost, and it was not allowed by the Han family, and it was hated by the Huns. If the Shanyue barbarians knew my details, they would definitely have resentment and would not obey the dispatch of the last general. ”

Jin Liang sighed: "These old grudges, those barbarians should have forgotten about it a long time ago." ”

Zhang Liao shook his head and sighed: "In the past, when the Huns were not in turmoil, the last general was a small and medium-sized official in Yanmen County, who went to Xihe County on a business trip, and was recognized by the barbarians and humiliated me. ”

Jin Liang had no choice but to let Xu Huang serve as the captain of the Hu cavalry, responsible for commanding the cavalry of the two thousand Shanyue barbarians, and directly subordinate to the commander of General Zhennan.

Gao Shun stepped forward and asked, "What should we do with those eliminated White Wave Thieves and Shanyue Barbarian Cavalry?" ”

Jin Liang thought for a moment: "There are more than 38,000 white wave thieves whose physique and will are very weak, so take them to Jingzhou, and then choose a place to force them to resume their farming habits, and they will start to implement the policy of tuntian; As for the more than 1,100 weak-willed, restless Huns who could not obey basic orders, because they were herdsmen, we asked them to raise horses and cattle for us. ”

Gao Shun asked again: "What about some of those whose morals are particularly corrupt?" Do you want to kill them to get rid of the trouble?! ”

Jin Liang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "These surrendered soldiers have battlefield experience, it is much easier to train and transform them than to train one, civilians, and more than half of our horses may be converted from surrender in the future, so we must not kill and surrender, and we must not fall into such a bad reputation, otherwise no one will dare to take refuge in us in the future, not only that, we will also encourage the other party to surrender in the future, and there will even be a reward for surrendering, and after they surrender, they will choose their elite to enlist in the army, and the rest will be used for tuntian or grazing, as for those who are morally corrupt, There are many carboniferous mines and iron mines in Jingzhou and Zhouzhou, and we want them to dig out coal and iron essence for us to make steel. ”

Speaking of this, Jin Liang added: "Such inferior soldiers are all designated as slaves, and they are not allowed to marry and have children, and they are left to fend for themselves, so as to eliminate these people with bad morals." ”

Jin Liang looked at those generals, one by one with very respectful expressions, and seemed to be very loyal to himself, but Jin Liang couldn't have too much confidence in their loyalty, because most of them had private soldiers, all of whom were veterans who had joined them from the beginning and followed them for many years.

Although Gao Shun's trapping camp is the elite of the Bingzhou army, it is also an expansion of Gao Shun's hundreds of private soldiers, if it weren't for Gao Shun's selflessness, Lu Bu would not have been able to command the trapping camp at all. Generals such as Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Xue Lan, and Li Feng all had hundreds of private soldiers, including Zhang Liao, who also had hundreds of private soldiers, but the whole army was wiped out during the Battle of Keiguan. In such a situation, how can Jin Liang drive them with confidence, just thinking about what Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng in history can easily betray Lu Bu in the suburbs. It was because their tribes were not under Lu Bu's control that Jin Liang shuddered.

This is the tribal system that Jin Liang hates.

Jin Liang knew how this system was formed, starting from the Yellow Turban Rebellion, in order to gather people to protect themselves or go out to fight, the family used the military system to restrain their clans, guests, tenants, protégés, and former officials, forming a huge private army, known as the tribal or family soldiers. These soldiers are subordinates when they fight, and they are tenants in peacetime. At the same time, the official subordinates, which were originally under the command of the generals of the official army, also cultivated the fields during non-war times. Those generals saw that it was profitable. He widely recruited the subordinates to engage in production, and the troubled world had no place to return, and the subordinates would always follow the generals, and the subordinates would absolutely obey the orders of the subordinate officers. Subordinate to the Lord will be privately owned. This trend is getting heavier and heavier. Like the well-known Zang Ba, Li Tong, Li Dian, and Tian Chou all have large-scale private soldiers, as for the Dongwu side, in order to cater to the family. In addition, the hereditary system of leading soldiers was introduced, so that the generals and soldiers established a generational subordinate relationship.

How could Jin Liang allow such a situation to happen in his own army! He wanted to immediately announce the system of taking the hooves and taking the hooves of private soldiers, but he knew that as soon as he opened this mouth, the seemingly loyal generals below would rebel one after another.

Abolishing the tribal system and weakening the private forces of the generals below can only be done slowly and step by step, and cannot be rushed. The first is to protect himself, Jin Liang himself needs to have a strong army that can deter all the generals and completely obey his orders. That army is the Flying Tiger Army, but there are only 2,000 people, and if you want to deter the 40,000 army, I'm afraid it's far from enough.

Jin Liang's heart hides the dark thoughts of weakening the power of the generals and private soldiers under his command, but there is a warm spring breeze on his face.

At Jin Liang's behing, Guo Jia said to the generals: "From the battle just now, we can see that the generals are brave. If it weren't for the brave charge of the elite Flying Tiger Army under the command of the lord, it would have been difficult for the officers and soldiers to break through the strong military formation of more than 100,000 white wave thieves. However, the Flying Tiger Army of the Lord only had 2,000 people, and most of them were wounded after the battle just now, and they were no longer enough. For the sake of the whole army, I suggest that from the 40,000 people in the whole army, select 10,000 of the most elite soldiers to form a part, which will be led by the lord himself and be called the Flying Tiger Army. From then on, whenever the battle is stalemate, there is a Flying Tiger Army, it will be invincible, the Lord is famous, and his achievements are outstanding, and it is not only the Flying Tiger Army that benefits from it, but also our other soldiers. ”

Chen Lin added: "Since the Lord's Flying Tiger Army is composed of the most elite soldiers in the whole army, it must always maintain its strength, and constantly eliminate those soldiers who do not strictly train, do not actively fight, and do not obey the orders of the Lord, and then select elites from the other 30,000 soldiers one after another. I suggest that this form a set of systems for our whole army, so that only outstanding soldiers can be selected into the Flying Tiger Army, and backward soldiers will be eliminated, and entering the Flying Tiger Army will become an honor, and other officers and men will not be outdone, train hard, and fight hard in order to join the Flying Tiger Army. ”

These generals have been in the army for a long time, and they are used to seeing the trick of their superiors to record the power of the lower ranks, this trick is not new, the last time the Flying Tiger Army was founded was also from the whole army to select the elite, from 30,000 people to select 2,000 people, each of them took out dozens of elite soldiers, and did not hurt their muscles and bones, so there was no strong opposition, but this time they had to select 10,000 people from the 40,000 people in the whole army, and remove the 10,000 white wave thieves, which was equivalent to choosing one of the three, and the elite under their command was selected a third or even more at once, how could these generals bear it, After listening to Guo Jia and Chen Lin's words, they were silent, but their faces were gloomy one by one.

They understood that the words of the two cronies and advisors of the lord represented what Jin Liang meant, and it seemed that the lord wanted to take away all the elite troops in our hands. Some people even want to go to worse places, does the lord want to take the opportunity to take away our private troops, and when we don't have private soldiers in our hands, they can take care of us, of course, most of these generals are foreign generals who are not outstanding in ability and have never been valued by Jin Liang.

Jin Liang watched the expressions of those generals with cold eyes on the sidelines, only Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, Cheng Lian, and Cao Xing had their expressions as usual, and the other generals all piled up their dissatisfaction on their faces.

Jin Liang saw that there were as many as eighty percent of the dissatisfied generals, and he knew that he could not touch the private soldiers in their hands for the time being, otherwise the 40,000 army would definitely be in turmoil, so he laughed and said, "Everyone, don't worry. If you do not agree, this general will not forcibly take your private soldiers, not only today, but also not in the future. However, if you are willing to give me the elite under your command, I am honored. If you don't want to, General Ben will not be embarrassed. I, Jin Liang, have a hard time chasing after me, so please supervise it. ”

In order to reassure those generals, Jin Liang also personally wrote down the oath he had just made "never to take the generals' private soldiers", and he had a guarantee in black and white. The generals breathed a sigh of relief. Then they all felt a little uncomfortable, so they symbolically selected some of the elite under their command and handed them over to Jin Liang, or dozens of people, or hundreds of people. There are very few people with more than 500 people.

Cheng Lian followed Jin Liang for a short time. But he is loyal to Jin Liang. Cao Xing is highly regarded by Jin Liang's teachings and is also very loyal to Jin Liang, while Gao Shun and Huang Zhong are long-term. understood Jin Liang's thoughts, and wanted to be reused by Jin Liang in the future, and now they can't be attached to such a little military power, and several of them are willing to hand over all the parts under their command to Jin Liang, Jin Liang smiled and encouraged them, but he didn't want to take all their parts, but just selected about one percent of the elite from them. Zhang Liao has no private soldiers now, but he also saw Jin Liang's true intentions, so he took the initiative to say that if there is a part in the future, the lord can be absorbed at any time.

Guo Jia and Chen Lin were shocked by Jin Liang's oath of "never taking the generals' troops", they didn't understand why the lord swore like this, and later when the three of them were in the same room, Jin Liang said what he thought in his heart: "For those generals who are selfish, bent on pursuing personal interests, and unwilling to take the initiative to hand over their military power, I really won't take their troops, but their troops will only stay at the current scale, if they are incapacitated, defeated, and reduced a lot, I didn't give them a make-up on the grounds of incompetence and defeat, and besides, they were the last to be considered when it came to promotions and commanding more troops. For those generals who are selfless, far-sighted, and willing to take the initiative to hand over military power, I will give them higher military positions, let them command more troops, and if there is a loss in their private troops, they will make up for it first, but it is only limited to the current scale, and I will create a new system in the future, so that the newly incorporated troops will obey their own orders. ”

Guo Jia and Chen Lin were overjoyed when they heard that Jin Liang had such a plan, they had long been unaccustomed to those generals who supported their troops and respected themselves, but they couldn't think of a perfect way to deal with it, although the lord's plan was slow, but it was very safe.

Jin Liang's expansion of the Flying Tiger Army this time has the intention of testing the loyalty of the generals under his command, and from the selection process of the elite just now, Jin Liang has determined who he will reuse and who he will be wary of in the future. Those generals who value the thousands of private soldiers in front of them are not only loyal and suspicious, but also short-sighted, and they are useless.

Jin Liang understands that he can't just look at those generals according to the records of the romance or the official history, they are real characters, each with their own calculations in their hearts, they are not characters in the game, nor are they face characters in Peking Opera. Jin Liang had to constantly observe and constantly revise his views on these generals.

Jin Liang calculated, the original 2,000 people in the control of the Flying Tiger Army were reduced by more than 300 people in the battle just now, leaving more than 1,600 people, and more than 600 people were sent to the following to be the commander, captain, and two chiefs to manage Bai Bo's troops, and the Flying Tiger Army only had 1,000 people left for the time being. The private soldiers of those generals together had more than 16,000, and only about 2,000 were handed over by them on their own initiative just now, plus the 500 cavalry that Xu Huang brought from Hedong, plus the 2,000 Shanyue barbarian cavalry that had been recruited, a total of 5,005, and another 4,050 had to be selected.

1,000 people were selected from the 10,000 Baibo troops, and 3,500 people were selected from the 14,000 people who were not subordinate to any generals among the original 30,000 horses, and the 10,000 horses of the Flying Tiger Army, which was a part of itself, was reorganized. He led the captain of the Flying Tiger Military Department, and at the same time served as the most elite military marquis of Qu, and the other four Qu military marquis were Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, Cao Xing, Xu Huang, and Dian Wei served as the captain of the Red Guards and the commander of the first tun. The remaining 9,000 Baibo troops were under the jurisdiction of the 600 elites released by Jin Liang from outside the Flying Tiger Army as the two chiefs, captains, and tun chiefs, and another 400 people were selected from other Mali to make up for 10,000 people, and they were organized into a department, and the captain of the ministry was served by Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao concurrently served as the first qu marquis, and Jin Liang's personal guards Qin Yi, Chen Wei, Zhang Ning, and Xu Meng were released as the military marquis of the other four songs. Because Bai Bo's troops were clearly the weakest part, Jin Liang promoted his own guards to Qu Junhou, and the other generals had nothing to be jealous of.

In this way, the 10,000 Flying Tiger Army and the 10,000 Baibo Troops have become the army that only Jin Liang ordered. There were 40,000 officers and horses, except for the 10,000 Flying Tiger Army led by Jin Liang and the 10,000 Baibo troops led by Zhang Liao, the remaining 20,000 horses were organized into two divisions, led by Gao Shun and Huang Zhong respectively. Gao Shun led the camp alone, and there were also four military marquis, including Hao Zhao, Xia Mu, Feng Fang, and Zhang Ben. Huang Zhong led the song alone, and the other four military marquis were Song Xian, Wei Xu, Li Sheng, and Wang Du. Zhang Shi, Li Sheng, and Wang Du are all foreign generals, and they will be eliminated in the future. (To be continued.) )

ps: I don't forgive me for this time of emotional drama.
