Chapter 189: Governing the Army
The ideal is very plump, but the reality is very backbone.
It is impossible to do anything with only benefits and no disadvantages.
After such a reorganization of Yuan Wei, the strength of Yuan's army was immediately expanded to 7,000 people, and it was orderly, from the original Yellow Turban thieves to fight separately, to achieve unified command, this is a good side, but there is also a bad side, that is, Liang Gang and other four generals and Zhou Cang and other large and small Yellow Turban thieves are full of complaints.
General Liang Gangsi insisted that he was a veteran of the Yuan clan and should be a cut above the four Yellow Turban thieves.
However, Zhou Cang and other big and small yellow turban thieves thought that Ni Mei, most of these more than 6,000 horses were our people, why did we only have 800 people left after the reorganization? How can this be true?
Fortunately, Yuan Wei had the great exploits of defeating Sun Ce and Zhou Yu in Longkangjuchao Dabie Mountain, plus there was also a Xiao cavalry battalion to deter him, so the situation did not get out of control immediately, although the big and small thieves of the Yellow Turban Thief were full of complaints, they did not dare to act excessively.
Under the deterrence of the cavalry battalion, the organization of the eight captains' units was able to proceed smoothly.
After the organization was completed, Yuan Wei convened the first military meeting of the captains of the eight departments.
At the meeting, Yuan Nuoxian coldly glanced at the fourth general Liang Gang who was sitting on the right, and said: "I know that some people are not convinced, thinking that they are old qualifications and should be higher than others, but I tell you, the past can only represent the past, but now you have to start all over again, if you want to be respected by others, you must go to the battlefield to fight with a knife and a gun!" ”
After speaking, Yuan Wei Leng Sensen's gaze swept over Zhou Cang, Liaohua, Pei Yuanshao, and Du Yuan's faces one by one, and continued: "I also know that some people can't figure it out. Think Lao Tzu brought so many people into your gang. Why did you take Lao Tzu's soldiers with a single sentence? Then I'll tell you. The officers and soldiers are not bandits, and I am not the king of the mountain, in my rear general's mansion, the orders must be unified! ”
Speaking of this, Yuan Quan paused, and then said murderously: "I'll talk about the ugly things first, you can do anything in private, you make fun of me Yuan Nuo, I will only be happy." But if it's business, if anyone drops the chain and stabs the basket for me, don't blame my son for turning his face and not recognizing people! ”
After speaking, Yuan Wei immediately pulled out a knife with his backhand and cut off a corner of the table with one knife.
After months of unremitting practice and drawing the sword, Yuan Wei finally made progress.
Seeing Yuan Wei pull out his knife and cut off the corner of the table, Liang Gang, Li Feng, Chen Jile, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua, Du Yuan, Pei Yuanshao and other eight captains were suddenly silent.
The military conference ended, and on the surface the problem seemed to be solved.
However, things are not so simple, and an undercurrent is forming.
Liu Ye followed Yuan Wei back to Xingyuan. said: "Childe, you seem to be in a hurry. ”
Today is the first day that Zhou Cang, Liao Hua, Pei Yuanshao, and Du Yuan came to defect. Yuan Wei couldn't wait to reorganize their parts, and it seemed that he was indeed in a hurry.
Yuan no also has his reasoning, but he has also thought it through.
"I've actually thought about this too." Yuan Fu nodded, and said, "It stands to reason that it is true that you can wait for a period of time and then reorganize Zhou Cang's subordinates, so that the probability of a mutiny will be smaller, but everything that is good will inevitably have disadvantages, and if you reorganize it after a while, the resistance will be greater, because at that time, there will only be more yellow turban thieves who join us, and once there is a rebound, the harm will be greater." ”
Liu Ye nodded silently, what Yuan said was also very reasonable.
Yuan Wei continued: "It seems a bit hasty to carry out the reorganization now, but the resistance will be much smaller, and it will also set an example for the yellow turban thieves who defected later. ”
Liu Ye nodded again, and said, "However, Gongzi still needs to beware of mutiny. ”
"I understand." Yuan nodded and said, "I will let the Xiao cavalry camp stay in the air." ”
Facts have proved that Liu Ye's reminder is by no means superfluous, and the Yellow Turban Thief really mutinied.
In the early morning of the next day, Du Yuan gathered more than 500 strong men who originally belonged to him, and more than 2,000 people, ready to return to the old nest where he had settled and continue to be his bandits.
However, after Du Yuan took more than 2,000 people out of the city, he walked forward for less than ten miles, and he could not continue to go forward.
Why? Because there was a cavalry blocking their way, but they saw that under the dark night, a neat cavalry had been laid out in a row on the wilderness ahead, the stars and the moon were bleak, sprinkling a faint and clear light, shining on the iron armor of the cavalry, reflecting a cloud of cold cold.
Just looking at it from a distance, you can immediately know that this is an elite army!
Du Yuan's soles were cold, but he still had the courage to step forward and ask, "Who is in the way?" ”
The cavalry in front suddenly split to the sides, and dozens of horsemen burst out with torches.
By the light of the torches, Du Yuan saw Yuan No, Yuan No, it turned out to be Yuan No!
Yuan Wei came out of the crowd surrounded by Gan Ning Taishi Ci Xu Sheng Ji Ling, and did not stop the horse until he was less than ten steps away from Du Yuan, and then on horseback, he looked down at Du Yuan condescendingly, and said coldly: "Du Yuan, you have brought so many people in the middle of the night, but where are you going?" ”
Du Yuan looked up at Yuan No, and said calmly: "Childe, there are ways that are different and do not conspire with each other, but your rear general's mansion is not used to it, so I will not accompany you." ”
Du Yuan was telling the truth, the reason why he came with Zhou Cang Liaohua Pei Yuanshao was because he admired Yuan No's great military exploits, and then he wanted to get some benefits under Yuan No, not to mention anything else, it was always time to get an official position and then reward some money, right?
But he didn't expect that Yuan Wei only gave the false title of captain to the previous colonel, which is not enough, and he actually took away the parts that originally belonged to him, how can there be such a reason? There is more than one prince in this world, and there is also an Uncle Liu Huang in Runan, isn't it? Uncle Liu Huang is also recruiting, so Lao Tzu will switch to Uncle Liu Huang.
"Stuck in?" A strange smile appeared on Yuan Fu's face, and he said again. "That's why you're leaving?"
Du Yuan saw that Yuan Wei's expression was different. But this will be difficult for him to ride a tiger. At the moment, he stubbornly said: "That's such a reason, I'm not used to staying down." ”
Yuan Wei smiled and said happily: "Okay, since you are not used to staying under the command of this son, you can go, but these soldiers behind you can't be taken away!" ”
"Why?" Du Yuan was anxious when he heard it. "These are my soldiers!"
"I'm afraid Leader Du is misremembering, right?" Yuan Wei smiled and said coldly, "After yesterday's reorganization, these are already soldiers under the account of this son, and they are no longer bandits under Leader Du." ”
After speaking, Yuan Wei turned around and asked Xu Sheng: "Wen Xiang, how should deserters be punished?" ”
Xu Sheng responded sharply: "Deserters and deserters are regarded as the same, and they should be beheaded!" ”
"Did you hear that?" Yuan Wei turned around again, staring at the Yellow Turban thieves behind Du Yuan, and his big eyes suddenly revealed a terrifying essence. Leng Ran said, "Go back now." This son can act as if nothing happened, if he doesn't go back, hehehe, this son will be subject to military law! ”
Yuan's voice fell, and Xu Sheng immediately shouted: "Xiao Riding Camp!" ”
Seven hundred riders pulled out the knife with their backhands and raised them above the top.
The five hundred parts behind Du Yuan and more than 2,000 old and young women and children immediately became in a commotion.
Du Yuan is not a very courageous person in nature, but he was forced to this role by Yuan Wei, but he could only fight as a trapped beast, and he gritted his teeth at the moment, and was about to give the order to rush into battle, when Zhou Cang's loud shout suddenly came from behind him.
Childe's subordinates are merciful, and Childe's subordinates are merciful.
Yuan Wei actually didn't want to kill Du Yuan.
Du Yuan is a bandit, and if he kills Du Yuan, he will not leave any stain morally.
Killing Du Yuan can even better deter the Yellow Turban thieves who have just surrendered, and at the same time, it can also better command the three armies.
But at the same time, killing Du Yuan will also chill the hearts of Zhou Cang, Liaohua, Pei Yuanshao, and from then on, these three people are afraid that it will be difficult to have one heart with him, and this will be a little more than worth the loss.
Pei Yuanshao didn't say it first, but Zhou Cang Liaohua is also a general.
So seeing Zhou Cang catching up, Yuan Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
Not only Zhou Cang came, but Liao Hua and Pei Yuanshao also came.
The three of them hurried over, and at the same time knelt on the ground and pleaded with Yuan Wei: "I still hope that Gongzi Nian Du Yuan is a first offender, spare him once." ”
Yuan Wei snorted, Leng Sensen's gaze fell on Du Yuan again, and asked, "Du Yuan, are you guilty?" ”
From Yuan No's eyes, Du Yuan felt an undisguised murderous opportunity, thinking that if he didn't accept this softness, Yuan Nu'er was only afraid that he would really kill him, and there was a way that a good man would not suffer the loss in front of him, and at that moment Du Yuan simply knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "The sin will be ignorant and inadvertently violated the military regulations, and I also ask the son to read that the sin will be the first offense, and forgive the sinner." ”
Yuan Wei nodded and said: "Okay, I read that you are a first-time offender, and I will spare you the death penalty, but you can't run away after being whipped eighty, Du Yuan, can you be convinced?" ”
Du Yuan hurriedly responded: "Sin will be convinced." ”
Yuan Fu looked at Zhou Cang and the other three coldly, and said: "Nian Duyuan is a first offender, this son will spare him this time, but if he commits it again, he will punish the three of you with him!" ”
Although Du Yuan is temporarily soft, it is impossible to bridge the rift between him and the Yuan Group, Yuan Yuan has a lot of things to do, and it is impossible to keep an eye on Du Yuan all the time, so the responsibility of monitoring Du Yuan can only be handed over to Zhou Cang and the three of them.
Of course, if Yuan does this, it may also lead to another result, that is, Zhou Cang and the other three will also be forced to rebel at the same time, but Yuan denied that this possibility is not large, and Zhou Cang and Liao Hua in history are all loyal and righteous people, since they have already joined the Yuan group, it is unlikely that they will rebel against the Lord and vote for another one.
Zhou Cang, Pei Yuan, Shao and Liao responded in unison.
Yuan immediately ordered Xu Sheng to be in charge of the execution.
Immediately after the execution, Yuan issued another order.
Yuan No also appointed Ji Ling as the protector of the Hou General's Mansion to assist him in commanding the newly set up eight departments, Yuan No did this, in fact, he appointed Ji Ling as the acting general in disguise, and commanded these eight departments, just because Yuan No himself was the rear general, and he was not a general, so he could not directly appoint Ji Ling as a general morally.
In the past, Yuan Wei was still guarding against Ji Ling, for fear that Ji Ling would cover the sky with one hand and would empty him, but now it is not necessary, now his prestige among the soldiers of Yuan Jun is high enough, even Ji Ling is difficult to compare with him, especially the newly joined Gan Ning Tai Shi Ci and others, only he Yuan No is in his eyes.
Moreover, the facts are enough to prove that Ji Ling is a loyal and righteous person, from Long Kang to Juchao to Xunyang, Ji Ling has never thought of challenging his authority, and has always been what Yuan says Ji Ling will do, never have two words, plus Ji Ling is good at training, so Ji Ling is the best candidate for the commander of the eight departments.
For Ji Ling to be the commander of the eight departments, Liang Gang, Li Feng, and Chen Jile of course have nothing to say about the four generals, because Ji Ling's qualifications are originally older than them, and under the command of Yuan Shu, Ji Ling is also high in the rank of General Wei, with a high position, and Ji Ling is the commander of the eight departments, which is really deserved.
After Du Yuan's appearance, Zhou Cang Liaohua and Pei Yuanshao now have nothing to say.
Zhou Cang and Liao Hua even vaguely gave birth to a kind of expectation, Gongzi ruled the army so strictly, but it was a good thing for them, because, only by following such a lord, it was possible to make meritorious achievements, if Yuan Wei just gathered them together and ate meat and drank wine every day, they would be disappointed.
