On December 18 of the third year of Guangshun, the weather was gloomy, dry and cold, and the sky was full of dark clouds, and it seemed that it was going to snow. When Zhang Yue, Feng Qianhou, Hao Tianying, and Li Duofu led the six battalions www.biquge.info of Yanzhou recruits, with thousands of war horses, and a large number of goods, food, and other military supplies, all the way south to Huining, it was the end of the afternoon Shen Shi.

Xuan Chongwen, who stayed behind, took his second brother Zhang Cheng, and Li Chuyun, Ming Jinrong and other officers, as well as Han Sheng, Li Duojin, Li Duoshou, Zhang Quanxu and others who arrived in advance. Yu Xuehui also moved over from Yanzhou first, and took her younger brother Yu Zhongqing to wait on the side, Hao Tianying directly threw off everyone and pulled the lady into the city.

Everyone was greeting and talking, and a sporadic light rain fell with snow seeds, and the ground was soon paved with dots of white. But this was only a small dish, and the feast began, and the goose feathers and snow fell one after another, so that everyone could not avoid it, and rushed the wagons and horses into the city with a roar.

Ming Jinrong led Li Duofu to lead the recruits to move into the barracks, and Li Chuyun arranged for the soldiers to receive goods and dozens of truckloads of grain to be moved into the warehouse.

Zhang Yue and Feng Qianhou didn't care about these little things, they went directly to the state office, which was also repaired here, and there were many empty houses, but there were no people living in them but they were empty. Like the layout of the state government compounds in the Central Plains, they are all quadrangle-type front halls and back houses. Entering the gate is to enter the compound, and there is a stable pavilion on the left side of the door, which is used to temporarily usher in and send to rest and reception. The left side of the front is the state prison, and the right side is the land temple and the noble hotel.

Passing through the instrument door is the second entrance hall, on both sides is the utility room and the office of the subordinate officials, and the inside is the lobby of the Zhizhou chief government and the council. The left and right courtyards are divided into several small courtyards, which are the residences of Qicao joining the army and some small officials' houses. The reason why there are seven Cao is because the Tang Dynasty was a central state, but now it is a military state, but the housing is still there.

On the inside side is the back hall of Sanjin, which is the daily office of Zhizhou and the place where important guests are received. The left and right wings are the offices and residences of the eighth and ninth petty officials such as the records and the military and the records and medical doctors.

The innermost four into is the Zhizhou house, covering an area similar to the state government hall, there are four or five acres in size, the left wing courtyard is the Sima house, the right wing courtyard is another driving house, just a little smaller, but the home and office are completely sufficient.

Zhang Yue went to the state office inside and out, and it was cleaned very cleanly, but it was a little dilapidated, and it would be renovated again in the future, and he had to work here for a long time, so he was still very concerned.

"Space is swinging! There are soldiers on duty everywhere, and there is no life! Where do Xuan Chongwen and Li Chuyun live, didn't they stay in the office before? Zhang Yue couldn't help frowning and said.

"Li Chuyun's family is still young, and he didn't return to Yanzhou when his daughter was born this year; Xuan Chongwen's family is in Tokyo, they have been living in the barracks, they come to see it in the morning, and then they are busy with their own ......" Han Sheng said with a wry smile.

"Haha...... This state is full of military men! The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and everyone is afraid that they are all homesick! Zhang Yue laughed, and he himself was a little melancholy when he said this. In this place where the birds don't pull, it's just that there is no one to accompany you, and you can't do anything in the snow, and you feel bored when you think about it.

"Isn't it? Brother Xiaode and I also went home once in the middle of the year, the officers and soldiers left Beijing at the beginning of the year, and now there is no hope of going home, secretly scolding my mother. Han Sheng looked at Feng Qianhou and said with a smile.

"Scold a bird! Let them see more in a few days! Zhang Yue pouted and said, you can't do anything else in this weather, it's still okay to train the soldiers, take them to stretch their muscles, play some small games, and engage in activities, so as not to hurt the idle eggs, and think about those who don't.

The second brother Zhang Cheng followed behind him, this kid has grown a little taller, and he has a bit of heroism in a military uniform, and he wants to speak and stops, but he hasn't found a chance to speak.

Zhang Yue patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I went to Xuan Chongwen to carry my luggage by myself, and it was really boring for me to live alone in the great state government." ”

"Hey...... I'm already a gang leader! It's not good not to live with the brethren! Zhang Chenghan said with a smile.

Zhang Yue laughed when he heard this, and said angrily: "How old are you, your official addiction is not small, come back to me as a pro-soldier to learn some real skills, and I have time to read more books with Mr. Feng." ”

The snow fell heavily overnight and stopped in the afternoon of the next day, and the snow was more than half a foot deep on the ground. Zhang Yue got up just in time for lunch, a bowl of corn porridge, two pancakes and a bowl of mutton soup were distributed, this is not at home, you have to count the military rations to live, it is very good to be able to fill your stomach.

The second brother Zhang Cheng is still diligent, and he is talking and laughing with his soldiers to remove snow in the courtyard, and then push it away with a wheelbarrow, and it is almost cleaned inside and out.

"Erlang! Inform Chen Jia to go to the barracks to give an order, and summon the officers to come over for a meeting in the afternoon! Then come back to me and read, you don't need to do all this chores. Zhang Yue stood under the eaves of the porch and shouted.

"Oh...... All right! "Zhang Cheng is only seventeen years old, and there are still some young people who are active, and they want to sneak out and wander around when they have nothing to do.

Zhang Yue went back to the bedroom to sort out his personal belongings, and hesitated to come to Qingtang Jia, and decided not to spread the matter for the time being. The second is the new recruits who have just arrived in Yanzhou, and the army will be expanded by six battalions, and the candidates for officers must be determined. There are also five battalions stationed in various places, and the weather cannot be contacted.

Half an hour later, Zhang Yue finished the manuscript and came out of the back hall with Feng Qianhou, and the officers such as Xuan Chongwen, Quan Daojin, Ming Jinrong, and Li Duofu had already arrived.

"There are six battalions of recruits in Yanzhou, and the commanders and the officers at the first two levels are currently in power, and today we will officially confirm that they will be sent down, and the whole army will start training from tomorrow, and the old officers will lead the new recruits to form combat strength as soon as possible."

Zhang Yue first opened his mouth to set the tone of the meeting, and then Li Duofu submitted the roster for review, and checked and exchanged them on the spot according to the resumes of the officers at the two levels, and the reorganization could be officially announced on the campus tomorrow.

At present, nine to fourteen battalions have been added, and the three veteran deputy commanders of Hao Tianying, Yan Chengwang, and Shi Chenghong have finally become regulars, and they have been transferred to the command of the recruits, respectively commanding the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth battalions, and Song Lingguang, a disciple of Xuan Chongwen, is the thirteenth commander, and Li Duofu is the fourteenth commander. The head of the subordinate is also replaced, but the team leader is forgotten.

Li Duofu was originally the capital of the Yanzhou Zhangwu Army, but now he has been demoted as the commander, but this is only temporary, and Zhang Yue can also let him hold some high-level positions.

As for the three cavalry battalions of the third, sixth, and eighth, in order to maintain combat effectiveness, Zhang Yue did not transfer for the time being, and when this batch of recruits was trained, the first, second, fourth, fifth, and seventh battalions would be replaced. Tuoba Bogu is still on the west bank of the Yellow River, and if something happens, it will be terrible. (To be continued.) )
