The sky will be bright, Zhang Yue came to the barracks on time, first met with the recruits, and after the lecture, he took the recruits to clean up the snow in the city, and these things were busy all day. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info will not do chores in the next few days, but according to the height and physique of the soldiers, the skills of the knife and gun they are good at, etc., the recruits will be formally arranged, and they will personally preside over the training of basic subjects such as the recruits' parade drills, flag recognition and drums, and military order transmission.

In the afternoon of that day, Liang Benji, the patriarch of the Liang clan in the south of Huizhou, suddenly sent his son Liang Guiben to Huining to ask for a meeting. Zhang Yue was training soldiers in the barracks, and when he returned to the state office after hearing the news, Feng Qianhou was accompanying a young man to sit in the lobby and talk.

"This is icy and snowy, I don't know why Patriarch Liang came here?" Zhang Yue walked into the lobby and asked with some surprise.

Liang Benji was wearing a fur hat and a fox fur jacket, and his big black face was blown red like a monkey's butt by the cold wind, and when he saw Zhang Yue coming in, he hurriedly got up and saluted: "There is a messenger from Tokyo, who happened to arrive in our clan's territory, and when the road was closed by heavy snow, he stayed with us and asked General Zhang to send someone to greet him." ”

"How many people came? Is the chief officer's surname Wen, and does he bring a carriage and horses? Zhang Yue suddenly realized, this must be Wen Yuankai's arrival.

"It's the surname Wen! Shi Yanei of the Jingyuan Army led 300 cavalry guards and brought more than 50 carts, all of which were trapped in our clan. Liang Guiben said.

"Then you came on a fast horse, right? Will the wagon be able to move with snow removed from the road? Zhang Yue asked with some concern, Huining went south along the Zuli River to the Liang clan, which is two hundred miles, and it is very troublesome to catch a car on the snow.

"I can go! It's just going to be a few more days! "Liang Gui Ben is stout and powerful, and he laughs honestly and honestly, and he doesn't look scheming.

"Okay! Tomorrow you lead the way, and I'll go myself! Zhang Yue said with a smile, suddenly his heart moved, and he asked curiously, "What does your name mean?" Is the word Liang your family name? ”

Liang Gui Bon was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and said with a little embarrassment: "The name Ghost Bon is taken from the Tubo Bon religion, which refers to having endless power like ghosts and gods. The surname Liang is the big surname in our clan, it is said that in the Tang Dynasty, the ancestor was the Longyou Weizhou town army, so this surname has been retained.

"In other words, you're not really Qiang, are you? Isn't Tibetan Bon dying? Do you Qiang people still believe in Bon? Zhang Yue asked in surprise.

"Now we don't believe it, we convert to Shakyamuni Buddha! Because the clan is all Qiang, my Liang family has also intermarried with the Qiang people for more than 100 years, and it is no different from the Qiang people. ”

Zhang Yue nodded, didn't ask any more, sent Liang Gui Ben to rest, and chatted with Feng Qianhou about the Qiang people in Weizhou and Lanzhou, and they were all a little embarrassed. Although the Liang family retained the Han surname, the customs and etiquette of life were completely Hu and had been reduced to a miscellaneous Qiang. It can be seen the influence of the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, and then the tug-of-war with Tubo in Helong for more than 100 years, has not been able to recover Helong, and the restraint policy towards Qianghu is also very bad.

The next day led by Liang Guiben, Zhang Yue led two hundred horsemen from carrying camp tents and snow shoveling tools to the south, halfway in the east of the Zuli River Linhe military village camped for one night, at present the four battalions Han Zhongming, Zhang Congzhao led the troops to garrison here, the military city has not yet started, the camp is built of big wood, originally the South Road military grain and grass transit place.

The road is very difficult to walk, it took five days to reach the Liang Qiang station, here is not the camp tent that Zhang Yue imagined, but several large villages are located in the leeward river valley, the Qiang people are half farming and half pasture, only to the distance will bring the camp tent camping.

Wen Yuankai, Shi Deyuan and others received a report from the Qiang people in advance, and took a large group of civil officials to go out of the village with Liang Benji to greet them. ”

"If it weren't for His Royal Highness the King of Jin sending a report back to Beijing on the way, we would not have come to the beginning of spring next year, and it would not have been so urgent!" Wen Yuankai explained with a smile.

"That's ...... Is there any important purpose? It's twenty-six today, so are you here for the New Year? Or back to Huining? Zhang Yue asked with a wry smile.

"Of course, it's better to go to Huining, and it is not in compliance with the distance to read the edict halfway." Wen Yuankai is still the same, a little stubborn and rigid.

"Okay! Departure tomorrow, just in time for the New Year's Eve in Huining! Zhang Yue didn't care, and laughed.

"Come, come, come! Let me introduce you, you have heard of this Shi Yanei, after the war, he was promoted to the Wonju Assassin Shi with merit, and he sent us here as soon as he took office. Wen Yuankai pointed to a middle-aged official in his forties.

"General Chang Yangzhang's name! My father has left his post and returned to Beijing, and now we are colleagues, and we will take care of each other in the future. Shi Deyuan smiled and said.

"In this way, the southern and eastern grain routes of Huizhou are on Brother Shi's territory, so let's have a drink tonight!" Zhang Yue said warmly and politely.

Wen Yuankai then introduced: "This name is Li Liangbi, who will serve as the Sima of Huizhou, he was originally the commander of Xin'an County, Luoyang Prefecture, Xijing, and he is a good hand in governance!" ”

"Don't win the prize! General Zhang, a young hero! Before the crown of the year, he was able to recover the lost land of Huizhou for the dynasty, and the officials didn't think so before he came, but now he doesn't dare to be disrespectful, and the officials are polite! Li Liangbi is about thirty years old, with a light beard on his upper lip and chin, and compliments with a smile on his face.

"Yo...... Li Sima Liao Zan! Zhang didn't dare to be it! Zhang Yue laughed, and everyone carried the sedan chair, although the words seemed false, but at least it was an attitude. This is the rules of communication in officialdom, whether it is undisciplined to please and shameless, at least it means that it is willing to obey orders.

is obedient and diligent, and has a lot of practical ability, there is no leader who doesn't like it, it can be seen that this Li Liangbi is good at knowing people and sophisticated, and can get things done.

Wen Yuankai introduced seven other officials who took office, including one from Jiupinxia Medical Doctor; a record from the Nine Pins; two from the military under the nine pins; Three people joined the army from Sicang, Hu, and Tian under the eight products, and the administrative officials of a state were preliminarily arried.

However, there is still a lack of a judicial officer to join the army, a record from the eight products to join the army, and there is not a single official in Huining and Wulan counties, which cannot be that there is no one available in the DPRK and China, and it should be left to himself for recommendation, or to appoint some private individuals. Because there is this habit in these years, some even use military officers as county commanders and state officials.

When he stayed here for one night and then returned to Huining, it was the evening of Chinese New Year's Eve, and the last batch of grain and weapons transported from Yuanzhou was put into storage, and Zhang Yue was rare and generous, and the whole army took a three-day vacation, and on Chinese New Year's Eve, the officers and men celebrated together and spent the New Year together.

When night fell, torches were lit at the head of the city, several large bonfires were lit in the military camp in the city, and the soldiers were already waiting to enjoy dinner, but after Zhang Yue arranged the residences of Wen Yuankai, Li Liangbi and other new officials, he would officially receive the order in the state government hall.

There are not so many tricks of kneeling and worshipping in the incense case, this era is still simple and pragmatic, and Wen Yuankai, who temporarily acted as the envoy of the edict, directly read out the edict of the Chinese book, and accepted the book after completion.

First of all, the court gave Zhang Yue a will, rewarded his military exploits, and set up the capital state as a defensive military state. Zhang Yue was promoted to the rank of general of Zhuangwu under the fourth grade, the provincial envoy of the Xuanwei North Academy, the state affairs of the state army, the supervisor of the soldiers and horses of the Zhenyuan army, and the Sima of the march of the Hexi Jiedu.

Zhang Yue was a little confused after receiving the order, and there was a long list of official positions, among which the provincial envoy of the Xuanwei North Courtyard was not just one, but several. Because the Xuanwei North Courtyard is an institution that overlaps with the Honglu Temple, it is in charge of northern foreign affairs. The Xuanwei South Institute is in charge of the south, which was established to adapt to the complex situation in the world.

In short, with the official position of the guest provincial envoy, he can intervene or reconcile the internal or external relations of the towns in Guanzhong and Guanbei, and his power is actually quite large.

And the Zhenyuan Army is an independent state army, and Zhang Yue has been promoted to the commander of the army and horses, which means that he can justifiably expand the army, and upgrade the subordinate establishment, and set up several small army commanders. This is very timely for him, who commands 7,000 troops.

And the leader of the remote Linghexi Jiedu marching Sima, this is a high-ranking subordinate official under Jiezhen, only under the main and deputy Jiedu envoys, one level higher than the Jiedu judge, this should be to let him rightfully meddle in the affairs of Liangzhou, so as to ensure the safety of Liangzhou, no longer repeated.

Xuan Chongwen was promoted to the rank of captain of Zhengliupin Shangzhaowu, and the defense envoy of Huizhou; Zong Jingcheng was promoted to the deputy lieutenant of Zhaowu under the sixth rank of Zhengliupin, and the deputy envoy of the defense of Huizhou.

The rest of the first-class officers commanding the battalions, such as Xue Wenqian, Ming Jinrong, He Chenghui, Zhang Zhixing, Li Chuyun, and Hao Tianying, were all promoted to Zhenwu lieutenant and Zhenwu lieutenant from the top and bottom of the sixth rank.

From the sixth grade, it was originally a Zhenwei captain, but in order to avoid the emperor's name, it was changed to Zhenwu captain. The promotion of the head of the capital, the head of the team, and the head of the gang at the next level issued a large number of blank letters to the Privy Council and the Ministry of War, and Zhang Yue could fill in his name at will and distribute it.

This is just a promotion, but it was subordinate to the palace front division series before, of course, there is a reward money to bring when he goes to war, plus the allowance and military expenses that the palace front division has not received, etc., there is a lot of money, but Zhang Yue does not plan to give it according to his will. Because every soldier is consistent, and the officer, including himself, has an average of six or seven per person, which makes the soldiers red-eyed, and there is no military pay these days.

and then the newly arrived administrative civil official, Wen Wukai, for a farewell, invited a doctor from the five grades; Li Liangbi is the state Sima, and he is a member of the six grades; In addition, Kura, To, and Tian Sanji joined the army and so on. The missing one joined the military from the eight grades of justice, and Li Duojin was appointed; With Han Sheng as the record from the eight products, he participated in the military.

As for Feng Qianhou, he didn't want to go out, so Zhang Yue had no choice but to let him. Li Duoshou was originally a governor of Yanzhou, and there was no suitable job arrangement, so Zhang Yue transferred him to his side to assist Feng Qianhou in handling the copywriting.

After the state government announced the decree and announced the new appointments, the civil and military officers in the hall were full of joy and went to the barracks to hand out rewards for the officers and men of the third, sixth, and eighth battalions. Zhang Yue personally presided over it, and two hundred personal soldiers counted the money, and strings of yellow and clear copper coins were sent out, which made the new Yanzhou soldiers drool.

Then the sumptuous dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve was finally served, beef and mutton were not lacking, open to eat, and there was red star dry rice wine and white wine brought by Yanzhou, and the soldiers were in high mood and laughing. (To be continued.) )
