Chapter 111: First arrival in Youzhou
Now Daiwangcheng has become the material transit center of the two counties, in order to cover up the existence of the system, Gao Shun let the pikemen of the two counties form a transport team, which is responsible for the operation of grain, copper coins and other materials; Ma Gui also organized a large convoy of vehicles, often going back and forth between the royal city and Taoyuan Fort, transporting supplies and hiding people's eyes.

Of course, during this period, Fang Liang used his and Cao Shan's space ring to go back and forth to Daiwangcheng several times, and replenished Daiwangcheng with a large amount of materials, which was the key to Daiwangcheng's sufficient money and food.
Low-cost shops have been opened in the counties of Dai-gun and Upper Valley County, so that the people of the two counties can buy cheap grain, cloth, salt, agricultural tools, and other goods. When Gao Shun asked Fang Liang to send supplies to Shanggu County and Dai County, he had already informed Sun Cheng and Cao Shan to strictly control Juyong Pass and Flying Fox Road, and the materials could only come in, and they must not let grain, cattle, sheep, horses and other materials flow out.
Nanlou was extremely angry when he learned that the Wuhuan Captain's Mansion had incorporated the Wuhuan tribe in the two counties, but he quickly calmed down, and now it is not the best time to fight with the big Han, and after doing trade for several years in a row and growing stronger, he will take back the capital and interest together, and expel the Han officials from Dai County and Shanggu County.
Even though Nanlou was very angry, he still completed his first trade with Gao Shun in October; In addition to the horses left in Ningcheng to be used as cavalry expansion, cattle and sheep were exchanged for points by Gao Shun.
The location of Macheng, Ning and Quang Ninh counties is very important, guarding the northern entrance to the Zhangjiakou Basin.
By early November, Gao Shun had made a comprehensive military deployment.
The infantry originally led by Wan Hong was evenly distributed between Macheng and Quang Ninh City, plus the original county soldiers, and each formed 5 tun infantry.
The military strength of the school captain's office is also very strong, with Wan Hong leading 12 Tunyi cavalry, stationed in Guangning City; 9 Tun cavalry led by Xu Lin; Fang Liang's junior cavalry reached 3 tuns, composed 1 song, and appointed Ge Hu as a temporary military candidate, which was directly governed by Zhou Fei; The total number of cavalry reached 24 tuns. Gao Shun's purpose is to let Ge Hu train well in Ningcheng, and Xu Lin and Zhou Fei are his good sparring partners.
Zhou Fei's sword and shield soldiers reached 12 tuns, 4 junior infantry, formed 4 qu infantry, and appointed 4 junior military attachΓ©s as military candidates, each under the jurisdiction of 3 tun sword and shield soldiers and 1 tun junior infantry, as the city defense camp.
At present, there are more than two tuns in the camp of the Koji people, and some strong people have been selected from the Wuhuan people to join, and they have gathered enough three tuns and are conducting hard training every day, as a key force in Zhou Fei's hands.
Although the strength of the Wuhuan Captain's Mansion is mixed, it is very reasonably equipped, and the combat effectiveness should not be underestimated, Gao Shun can rest assured that he can go to Youzhou and Jizhou to recruit troops.
On the tenth day of November, Gao Shun led Li Qiang and Fang Liang to leave Ningcheng, accompanied by less than 100 junior cavalry.
The first stop was Shanggu County, after a short stay, leaving enough food and other supplies, as well as 10 junior civil officials and 10 junior military officials, Gao Shun went straight to Youzhou.
Before leaving, Zhou Fei appointed Fang Liang as the military commander of Wuhuan Colonel; In Shanggu County, let Sun Cheng appoint Gao Shun as the governor of Shanggu County, and Li Qiang as the governor of the eastern part of Shanggu County. Zhou Fei and Sun CD have the power to make full decisions, and it is a matter of effort to get an identity. According to Gao Shun's plan, after the recruitment is completed, he and Li Qiang will sit in Juyong Pass and become a node connecting the inside and outside of the fortress.
On November 18, he arrived at Ji County, Youzhou.
Jixian County, the site is near Guang'anmen in the southwest of Beijing, and is not Jixian County under the jurisdiction of Tianjin in later generations.
First of all, I went to visit Guo Xun, the assassin of Youzhou, and Liu Wei, the Taishou of Guangyang County. Gao Shun prepared ten catties of gold and ten horses of Shu brocade for each of them, which was considered a noble gift at that time.
Guo Xun, a native of Yangqu, Taiyuan, is from the same family as Guo Yi, the Taishou of Yanmen County. He is in his 50s, nearly 8 feet tall, with a white face and a long beard, a straight waist, and a calm bearing.
In the Yamen of the Assassin History, Guo Xun ceremoniously received Gao Shun and others, and Liu Wei came to accompany him.
Guo Xun had already received a letter from his nephew Yanmen Taishou Guo Yi, hoping to befriend Gao Shun and others.
Both of them had received orders from the imperial court to allow the lieutenants of Daijun, Shanggu and Huwuhuan to recruit troops in their jurisdictions.
Guo Xun saw that Gao Shun was so young, and he was a little suspicious of his nephew's words, but he was able to control Daijun and Shanggu County, and he was also a little capable, so he first asked: "Gao Chang, Li Duwei, Fang Sima, I don't know how many soldiers and horses will be recruited this time?" β
Gao Shun said: "Guo Jianshi, Liu Taishou, Dai County and Shanggu County are sparsely populated, and there are too many gaps in the border army. β
Youzhou is often plundered by Xianbei and Wuhuan, if Gao Shun and others form a strong border army, not only can protect the safety of the two counties, but also have the role of maintaining the security of Youzhou, even if Guangyang County is attacked, they can also seek the support of Shanggu County in time, so Guo Xun and Liu Wei are very supportive of recruiting troops in Youzhou, and try their best to befriend Gao Shun and others.
Liu Wei asked: "Senior Commander, what about the soldiers?" β
"Liu Taishou, the cavalry soldiers are 6 stone of corn per month, 600 yuan of money, and 6 liters of salt; The length of the tun is doubled, and the length of the tun is 200 stones. β
Everyone is very satisfied with this Yulu, so that the lives of many people in the local area can be solved, and it will be very easy to recruit such a high Yulu.
This is a good thing for them, it can bring benefits to Youzhou, and they have a free army to maintain their safety, at least this winter will not worry about the raids of the alien race.
Guo Xun asked: "Does the senior official have any specific plans?" β
"Guo Tingshi, Liu Taishou, in order to speed up the recruitment speed, I would like to ask Guo Tingshi and Liu Taishou for permission to set up a barracks in Youzhou, and then I will send people to various counties and counties to recruit soldiers, concentrate in the barracks for training, and then send them to the border counties after the training is complete."
In this era, household registration restrictions were very strict, and ordinary people were not allowed to stay away from the township casually, let alone Kuajun, so they could only send people to each county to recruit soldiers in person.
Liu Wei said: "Senior Chief, this matter is Yier, in the south of Jixian County, there is an abandoned military camp, which is large enough to move in with a little repair, and can be lent to your ministry for free use." β
Gao Shun was overjoyed, and hurriedly got up and thanked: "Thank you, Mrs. Liu!" Shun will not forget your support, if there is a dispatch in the future, Shun will not shirk. β
Liu Wei said with a smile: "Haha, the senior officials are polite, they are officials in the same dynasty, and they should help each other, this is a trivial matter." β
Gao Shun said secretly, money can make ghosts grind, if it weren't for the generous gifts in advance, the matter would not be so easy to solve.
It is now November 183, after the Spring Festival is the Yellow Turban Uprising, there are more than 2 months, Gao Shun is very anxious, the next day, he hired a large number of locals to start renovating the barracks, fortunately it is winter, the locals are not busy, and Gao Shun prescribes the treatment of two full meals, 50 Wen Yuan a day, so that the local young and strong flock to it.
Gao Shun arranged a junior civilian officer to be responsible for the renovation of the barracks; A junior civil servant was arranged to be in charge of procurement, and a large number of materials were continuously transported into the barracks, so that the local commercial activities immediately flourished, and Taishou Liu Wei was very happy about this.
Although Guo Xun also received a reminder from the Yuan family not to have close contact with Gao Shun and others, the Guo family is also one of the big clans, and for their own interests, they will not obey the Yuan family's words; After Liu Wei is a high ancestor, he is a natural enemy with the Yuan family, and the Yuan family will not negotiate with him.
The local families have been ordered by the Yuan family, and in the face of huge interests, even if they do not support Gao Shun and others on the surface, they have a lot of contact in private, besides, even if the materials in the market are in short supply, Gao Shun can also supplement them through the system.
The abundance of materials and the large number of personnel made the repair progress very fast, and it was completed in only 5 days.
During this period, Guo Xun came to inspect the barracks, and sighed in his heart, this Gao Shun is really a wealthy person, even if it is the Guo family, there is not so much financial resources to squander it like this, it seems that the nephew Guo Yi's suggestion to make friends with Gao Shun is very reasonable.
