Time flies by like a white horse, and it flies by in a blink of an eye.

In half a month, there was a flourishing and prosperous situation in Yan County. Regarding Qiao Mao or Qiao Xuan's possible revenge, Liu Jin didn't pay too much attention to it.

However, this does not mean that Liu Jin will sit still, on the one hand, he sent people to report to Zongzheng Liu Yu and Zhang Rang, the regular servant of the central government, to report the situation, and ask the two to give him more good words in the court, and on the other hand, he rectified the people in Yan County and expanded his strength.

Keeping his promise to the people, Liu Jin recruited people in Yan County, and in this half a month, a new army of 5,000 people was formed in Yan County.

This army Liu Jin did not hand over to Han Hao to command, but appointed Meng Yong, who was born in Jiangmen, as the commander, and transferred five experienced tun commanders from the Yanmen Iron Cavalry, who formed the main generals of this new army.

As for the soldiers of this army, Liu Jin adopted a mixed method, that is, 1,500 people were recruited from the original people of Yan County, and 3,500 strong men were drawn from the Yellow Turban captives.

The generals at all levels were mostly composed of rangers brought from Yanmen Iron Cavalry, Baima Yicong and Zhang Liao, so Liu Jin was not worried about the loyalty of this army at all.

Because even if someone wants to rebel against Liu Jin, these veterans who have followed Liu Jin and Gongsun Zan for many years will not agree, and they will definitely suppress the rebellion as soon as possible.

As for the rangers, Liu Jin is even less worried. can give up an unrestrained life, travel thousands of miles just for a promise to Meng Lie, and follow a fledgling teenager to help him, do you still have reason to doubt others?

As for the establishment of this force, Liu Jin referred to the military system of later generations, combined with the characteristics of this era, and created a unique establishment in a unique way.

That is, with five people, there is a chief and deputy chief; Ten people are set up as directors, and there are chief and deputy chiefs; A team of 50 people has a team of presidents and deputy captains; 200 people are tun, and there are chief and deputy tun chiefs; 1,000 people for the battalion, with a chief and deputy battalion commander; 5,000 people are legions, and there are chief and deputy commanders.

The advantage of this kind of establishment lies in the fact that it strengthens the command system of the troops and is conducive to unified operations. It can also train reserve officers, which is conducive to the development and growth of the troops. Compared with the current single command system of the Han Dynasty, it is much stronger to have only one military commander.

Because in ancient China, the death of most military commanders usually led to the collapse of the entire army, which is also one of the main reasons why the army is easy to bomb the camp in history.

Moreover, Liu Jin's establishment took into account the factors of the current era, and he did not make too big changes to the establishment of the troops, so he would not be pinched by others. In terms of officials, the officers of the army are still called captains, Simas, tun chiefs, captains, and so on, but there is an additional adjutant.

But don't underestimate such a simple adjutant, he can play a lot of roles.

For example, an adjutant can take the place of the commander when the commander dies and lead the army to continue the battle.

For another example, an adjutant can assist the commander-in-chief in reorganizing the troops after the troops bomb the battalions, and the speed of reorganizing the troops is much faster than that of a single commander-in-chief.

For example, the adjutant can act as Liu Jin's shadow and play the role of supervising the commander, if the commander has any betrayal, the adjutant can stabilize the army to a certain extent and prevent the rebellion of the entire army. This is the main purpose of Liu Jin's appointment of adjutants, after all, Liu Jin came from later generations and knows the importance of the loyalty of a force. If we can strengthen the combat strength of the army while ensuring the loyalty of the army, why not?

By the time the troops were roughly reorganized, it would be almost half a month later. On this day, a meteor horse scout galloped from the southwest, with a feathered arrow stuck in his back, and it seemed that he could not be happy.

"Hurry up and report to the governor, Peng Tuo led an army of 200,000 to besiege Puyang City" Before he finished speaking, this meteor horse scout fell off his horse, and it seemed that he had died of exhaustion.

As soon as the soldiers of the new army defending the city saw it, they knew that the situation was critical, and one of them hurriedly pulled a bamboo tube from the back of the horse, turned around and rode past the war horse tied in front of the city gate, and galloped away with Wangxian Ya.

This man arrived at the county office, got off his horse, and hurried to the lobby. At this time, Liu Jinzheng discussed the military with Meng Yong, Zhang Liao, Gongsun Zan and others, and prepared the next plan of action.

"Governor, Tan Ma urgently reported that the thief leader Peng Tuo led an army of 200,000 to storm Puyang City." Before anyone arrived, the sound had arrived, and Liu Jin and the others were stunned when they heard it.

Fortunately, Liu Jin was born in a special forces, and he reacted very quickly, and immediately asked: "Where is the horse, bring me quickly."

"Back to the governor, Tanma has been seriously injured and died. This is the detective report", as he spoke, the man handed over the bamboo tube on the horse and handed it to Liu Jin.

Liu Jin hurriedly took the bamboo tube and quickly poured out a small roll of bamboo slips from the bamboo tube. I saw that the bamboo slip read: "The thief leader Peng Tuo led 200,000 thieves to Puyang on April 21."

Seeing this, Liu Jin's heart was half cold. Although he has been actively rectifying the people in the past half a month, this Peng has come too quickly, and the number has doubled compared to the 100,000 people reported before.

Don't think about it, Liu Jin also knows. Ten has ** because Peng Tuo heard about the annihilation of Buji's entire army, and forcibly pulled strong Ding to enlist in the army along the road, so he had 200,000 horses.

"Governor, what should we do, should we immediately send troops to rescue Puyang", Gongsun Zhan was anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly asked.

Liu Jin waved his hand lightly, sat down again, and said secretly in his heart: "This Peng Tuo is fierce, and when he sends troops at this time, he must use his own weak soldiers to shake the enemy with superiority, it is not advisable!" ”。

Thinking of this, Liu Jin was about to speak, when he suddenly heard another hurried shout: "Report the arrival of the angel with the holy decree, please prepare to meet the angel as soon as possible."

Without thinking too much, Liu Jin hurriedly said: "Quickly put down the incense case and prepare to welcome the angel." Since the crossing, Liu Jin has been in this fiery late Han Dynasty for three or four years, and he can be said to know a lot about this ancient etiquette.

Everyone agreed, and one by one they straightened their clothes, and some attendants put down the incense table and lit sandalwood. It didn't take long for him to see a eunuch dressed in a small yellow gate, with a hundred and ten guards of the Southern Army in bright armor entering the palace gate.

Liu Jin hurriedly led the crowd forward to greet him, and when he looked at it, he found that he was still an acquaintance. Then he said: "The last general will meet Zuo's father-in-law, be careful, not respectful, and ask your father-in-law to smile." In the second half of the sentence, Liu Jin's voice was very small, and only a few people such as Zuo Feng heard it.

"Liu Zhonglang, it's so hard for us to find you! The soldiers are in chaos, but the road to Rao is far away! Zuo Feng's eunuch's unique sissy voice suddenly echoed in the empty courtyard, which made the generals in the army feel a chill, and goosebumps fell to the ground.

When Liu Jin heard this, he knew it in his heart. Presumably, the Yellow Turban Army is too powerful, and the vicinity of Luoyang is the main area of the Yellow Turban Army's activities, so this Zuo Feng said this.

Thinking of this, Liu Jin said with a smile: "Father-in-law Zuo has worked hard, coming to the end of the general's place, it is like going to his own home, please be relieved." At the same time, he handed a bag of things to Zuo Feng's hand, and he knew by looking at Zuo Feng's smile that the weight could not be light.

That Zuo Feng had eaten enough bribes, and knew that Liu Jin was waiting for him to announce the decree, so he waved his hand, took the holy decree from the guards of the southern army who were guarding the holy decree, raised it above his head, and shouted: "Liu Jin, the general of Pingnan Zhonglang, and the soldier of Beiping County on the right, Cao Gongsun Zhan, listen to the decree."

When Liu Jin and Gongsun Chan heard this, they led all the generals behind them to kneel on the ground and said: "The last general will lead the order."

Seeing this, Zuo Feng's expression froze, and he shouted sharply: "Fengtian carrier, the edict of the Son of Heaven." Zicha, Liu Jin, the general of the Ping Nan Zhonglang, was invited by the assassin history of Youzhou, temporarily served as the governor of Youzhou, and led 6,000 elite horsemen to break the Yellow Turban thieves in Dongjun and Bu Ji 100,000 thieves, raising the prestige of our Han army, and made outstanding achievements. Hereby, Liu Jin is given the title of General of Anbei and Marquis of Dongxiang. In addition, the Yingchuan thieves were rampant, and Liu Jinsu was ordered to lead the troops to recruit and return to Zuo Zhonglang to control Huangfu Song......

After reading the reward for Liu Jin, Zuo Feng paused, and then said: "Zicha, the right Beiping County soldier Cao engaged in Gongsun Zhan followed General Anbei to conquer and suppress thieves, born and died, and made great contributions to the country. The rest of the meritorious people will be promoted to one level and rewarded with qualifications. Chin this".

When Liu Jin and the others saw that Zuo Feng had finished reciting the holy decree, they replied in unison: "Thank you, Lord Longen, Your Majesty is safe." Immediately, Liu Jin took the holy decree from Zuo Feng's hand, held it high above the top, and thanked him again before handing it over to Gongsun Zhan behind him.

"Father-in-law, this holy decree says that thieves are rampant in Yuzhou, and a certain levy needs to be transferred, but why?" , Liu Jin felt that there was something here, so he asked tentatively.

This Zuo Feng took advantage of Liu Jin, and immediately looked around. may feel that there are too many people, so he pulled Liu Jin aside and said softly: "Don't hide it from Liu Anbei, this is the butcher He Jin's plan to kill people with a knife." Above the court, He Jin didn't know why, he wanted to stop His Majesty", as he spoke, Zuo Feng slowly told Liu Jin what happened in the court. However, it is necessary to add oil and vinegar to He Jin, and it is rare to publicize the fact that Zhang Rang and others are asking for rewards for Liu Jin.

When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately became angry, but Zuo Feng was not easy to say clearly. But in his heart, he scolded He Jin's eight generations of ancestors, and made up his mind that sooner or later he would seek revenge from He Jin.

"I also ask Father-in-law Zuo to thank Zhang Changshou and Zhao Changshou for their kind words, a little courtesy, and I hope that my father-in-law will not be too little. Moreover, the thief leader Peng Tuo led 200,000 thieves to attack Puyang, and a certain has mobilized men and horses to attack Peng Tuo, and when there is a result in three or five days, he also asked his father-in-law to postpone the trip and give a little twist for a certain person."

As soon as Zuo Feng heard Liu Jin say that the 200,000 Yellow Turban Army was close to Zuo, his face immediately changed color in fright, and he hurriedly said: "Liu Anbei, don't blame, the holy decree has been delivered, and our family should also return to Beijing immediately. We're leaving." As he spoke, Zuo Feng immediately turned around and walked out of the door with the one hundred and ten guards of the Southern Army accompanying him, no matter how Liu Jin shouted, he didn't look back.

After Zuo Feng left, Liu Jinyin turned around with a smile, and shouted at Gongsun Zan and the other generals: "Pass my general's order, all departments immediately straighten out their outfits, and after two hours, the army will be mobilized." Led by Brother Gongsun, the White Horse Yicong was the vanguard, and the troops were sent to Puyang" (to be continued)
