When everyone re-entered the table, Gao Shun picked up the wine glass and said: "Okay, let's start the table, first of all, congratulations to Yuanhang and the other three on their promotion, cheers!" ”

"Thank you, cheers!"

Gao Shun drank a cup in one go, and everyone then drank it dry. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

When the wine was half-drunk, Gao Shun felt that he was present, and everyone couldn't let go, so he was a little restrained, so he withdrew and entered the back hall, letting Ma Gui, Li Qiang and others accompany everyone to continue eating and drinking.

In the evening, Gao Shun convened a meeting of seven guards to discuss the matter of taking office.

Gao Shun first said: "I originally planned to buy the position of the Taishou of the ancient county and the Dai county and the position of the minister of Changshan country, but the emperor changed the position of the minister of Changshan country to the position of captain of Wuhuan University, the level is the same, so the price is not less, it is considered to be pit by the emperor once, Du Bian has not returned so far, I don't know what happened, we can only wait for him to come back to understand the specific process." ”

Ma Gui said: "Lord, anyone who even buys the position of the three Taishou will arouse the suspicion of the emperor, it is already very good to be able to do this, if we can manage Shanggu and Daijun well, our strength will be able to develop by leaps and bounds, and the captain of Wuhuan can also interfere in the military affairs of several border counties such as Yuyang County, Youbeiping County and Liaoxi County, the strength should not be underestimated, as long as the operation is good, it is not worse than Changshan Country." ”

Li Qiang said: "Lord, although it cost a little more money this time, it is worth the money for us, and we have full authority to manage the affairs of the county and the affairs of the Captain of the Wuhuan Colonel's Mansion, which is chicken ribs for outsiders, but it is very important to us,"

Gao Shun said: "You can think so, I'm very happy, I chose Dai County and Shanggu County in the first place, because these two local basins are connected, and they must be defended together to produce good results, and these two counties guard Juyong Pass and Flying Fox Road respectively, which can go straight down to Youyou and Hebei Prefectures, and can be developed behind closed doors." ”

Li Qiang said with a smile: "My lord, more importantly, there is room for development, and the entire north is the object of our gradual encroachment; There is also the right to recruit soldiers, after all, the population of Bingzhou is too small, while the two prefectures of Youzhou and Hebei are vast and densely populated, and since ancient times, Yan and Zhao have many strong men, with the treatment of our army, we can recruit as many as we want. ”

Gao Shun very much agrees with Li Qiang's point of view, Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, etc., the top military generals Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, etc., if these people are recruited, see how Yuan Shao will compete with him for hegemony in Jizhou in the future? If even Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are recruited, will Liu Bei still be able to rise? .

Ma Gui was very happy and said: "Lord, before the chaos in the world, let's use foreign races to train troops, and we can form an invincible strong army." ”

"That's a matter of the future, if we manage these two counties well, we will have the capital to dominate the world; Now that time is pressing, autumn and winter are approaching, and this year can resist the invasion of Xianbei, which is a great achievement; Let's talk about the personnel arrangement first, the civilian personnel are gradually adjusted, and there is no urgency now; The important thing is the arrangement of the military position, the lieutenant of the two counties is an official of 2,000 stones, and the commander of the first army under the command of the captain of Huwuhuan is an official of 600 stones, who is the right person to send? ”

Ma Gui thought about it for a while and said: "Lord, we are not familiar with the two counties and the captain of the Wuhuan Guard, we can only plan a rough plan for the time being, I suggest that all the old and weak in the border army be eliminated, and a strong army can be built, which can be divided into cavalry, light infantry and fortified battalions, and in addition, a righteous army will be formed under the captain of the Wuhuan Guard, all of which are cavalry; As for the personnel, I feel that Xue Yin can be used as a candidate for the commander of a county, and Cao Xing can be used as a candidate for military horses. ”

Li Qiang said: "I suggest that the lord think about the development direction of the Koji people's fortified camp, I don't recommend configuring too many aliens, only the righteous cavalry army is enough." ”

Gao Shun thought about it for a while and said: "Xue Yin is the governor of Shanggu County, Xu Fu is the lieutenant of the acting county, and Cao Xing is the military commander of the Wuhuan Captain's Mansion; The attacking battalion of the Koji people can only be gradually expanded, and suitable infantry can be incorporated into the attacking battalion at any time in the future; The cavalry of the Volunteer Army was in charge of Xu Lin, and the two were unified under the management of Jugong; The light infantry is mainly used for defense, and is arranged by each unit itself, and the old and weak of the border army are eliminated first; How do you feel about that? ”

Zhao Xiong asked: "Lord, Cao Xing and Xu Fu have been transferred, how to arrange it here in Mayi County?" ”

"Xu Zhen went to Mayi County to serve as a cavalry officer, and led four teams of cavalry to go, and the infantry was in charge of Fang Zheng and Zhang Cai; The cavalry gradually expanded to 5 tuns, the infantry was waiting for the army, managing 5 tuns, and Zhang Cai's infantry was gradually expanded to 5 tuns, so as to ensure the safety of Mayi County, at least be able to hold on and wait for reinforcements. ”

"Yes, my lord." Zhao Xiong was quite satisfied with this arrangement.

Ma Gui asked: "Lord, Sun Cheng has been transferred, who is in charge of the three castles such as Zhaozhuang?" ”

"Dispatch the army to Hou Gong Yu's 5 tun infantry is responsible, and at the same time allocate the team of cavalry left by Zhang Yang to him, and he will gradually expand to a tun, and Gong Yu will also serve as the cavalry commander. Zhang Yang left two fully formed cavalry teams, one team to Xu Fu, and the other team to Xue Yin, so that each of the two counties has 4 teams of cavalry as seeds, which is convenient for rapid expansion; There are 3 teams of cavalry from Cao Xing, 3 teams of cavalry from Xu Lin, plus the original border army, there is no problem guarding Ningcheng. ”

Sun Cheng said: "Lord, the three forts are the barrier to protect Taoyuan Fort, it is very important to us, we can't afford to lose, and there are so many horses there, with an outsider to take care of it, I don't feel at ease." ”

Gao Shun said: "Before leaving, I will exchange all the horses for points, and it is enough to leave the horses west of Bibo Valley; Cattle and sheep are also exchanged for points, so the risk is not high. ”

Ma Gui suggested: "My lord, my opinion is similar to that of Jugong, Taoyuan Fort, Bibo Castle and Zhaozhuang and other three forts, we must use our people, I suggest that Zirong be in charge for the time being; As for your arrangement for Gong Yu to lead infantry and cavalry, I agree, and after the two counties are stabilized, I suggest that he be appointed as a county lieutenant. ”

Gao Shun thought for a while, Zhao Zhuang and the other three forts were very important, so he said: "Okay, I will adopt your opinion, and Zirong will guard the three forts." Is there anything else anyone else to say? ”

Zhou Fei suggested: "Lord, I feel that everyone's salary grade is too big, which can easily lead to everyone's comparison and dissatisfaction, I suggest that at present, only Xu Fu, Xue Yin, Cao Xing, Xu Lin and Lu Min and other military Sima are treated, and enjoy a salary of 600 stones, and then implement differential salary treatment after they have made meritorious contributions." ”

Gao Shun thought for a while, felt that this suggestion was very reasonable, and said: "Okay, I accept this suggestion, and it is all for the treatment of six hundred stones." Do you have any other questions? ”

Ma Gui asked again: "Lord, how does Song Xian and Song Zizhong arrange?" ”

"He is too young, and his martial arts are still in the growth period, I want him to stay in Taoyuan Fort, responsible for recruiting and training soldiers, and responsible for guarding the safety of Taoyuan Fort."

Cao Shan asked, "Lord, when are we leaving?" ”

"Tomorrow morning, a military meeting will be held, with the participation of the cavalry commanders, Gong Yu and Koji Min, and the beginning of the assignment of work to prepare for departure, and the day after tomorrow Zhao Zizhuang will return to Mayi, so that Zizheng will return on the 29th, and the 30th army will set off in August."

"Yes, my lord."

Gao Shun said to Sun Cheng and Cao Shan: "After the two of you take office, the first task is to take over military power and financial power, maintain local order, and then recruit soldiers, there is no limit to the number of cavalry, as long as all those who are qualified are admitted, but the standard cannot be lowered." ”

"Yes, my lord."

Li Qiang said: "My lord, the personnel have been transferred, and the guards of Taoyuan Fort are a little weak. ”

Gao Shun said to Ma Gui: "Then hurry up and recruit troops, and those recruited by the state will only stay in the state; Besides, they made a good profit from the material trading with the Huns, and they will definitely be very safe in the near future, and there will be no problems with Taoyuan Fort. ”
