Chapter Seventy-Nine: Assignment of Tasks
"Mancai, marching and fighting rely on brains, not who has more soldiers." Wang Chong smiled and said, "Liu Xun's incompetent generation is like a chicken and a dog in my eyes, and he can be destroyed in the palm of his hand." ”
"But the lord ......"
"Okay, I've made up my mind, don't say more!" Wang Chong interrupted, "Now that I have enough grain and grass in Jinfan, it can be carried out in both directions at the same time, Mancai, the grain distribution operation is very important, you must bow down to the matter, there are many counties in Huainan, you can't go one by one, so you need to be cautious when selecting the grain distribution personnel, especially pay attention to their conduct, if you find that someone is greedy for ink, you don't need to show mercy, immediately arrest and publicly execute, in order to calm down the people's grievances!" ”
"No!"
Yan Jian also knew that strategy was not his area of expertise, so seeing that Wang Chong's attitude was so resolute, he didn't say anything more to persuade him, because this would only provoke Wang Chong's dissatisfaction and outweigh the losses, after all, he had just joined Jinfan, and he hadn't made any achievements yet, so he had no right to speak in Jinfan.
And to be honest, the task assigned by Wang Chong made Yan Jian feel great pressure, and now all he thinks about is how to do this thing well, and how can he take care of anything else?
After dealing with Yan Zhen, Wang Chong said to Zhuge Jin again: "Ziyu, when the grain distribution in Chao County ends tomorrow, I want you to take over all the tuntian matters, including building houses for the displaced people, allocating fields to them and distributing farm tools and seeds, etc., and in the name of Taishoufu, borrow a batch of grain and grass from them, first temporarily help them tide over the current difficulties, and then let them return it when the harvest comes next year." ”
Zhuge Jin took a deep breath and nodded solemnly: "No!" ”
Compared with Yan Ji's grain distribution action, Zhuge Jin's responsibility for this task is obviously more important and arduous, because it is not only related to Jinfan's future grain and grass issues, but also related to the livelihood of thousands of people.
"Zhonghua!"
Zhu Chun got up and clenched his fists: "The end will be!" ”
"If I make you Liyang Taishou and Zhenjiang Captain, can you have the confidence to guard Hengjiang for my Jinfan?"
Gan Ning is the only general in Jinfan who can handle it at present, and in the next battle against Liu Xun, Wang Chong naturally wants to take him with him, but if he wants to be transferred back to Gan Ning, who will be sent to replace him? This question actually made Wang Chong struggle for a long time.
There are too few generals available for Jinfan now, Li Tao is in Hefei, Hao Zhao wants to train the trapped camp, and Ren Jiang is stationed in the Weixukou, which is even more important than Liyang, but in addition to the three of them, Wang Shuang and Zhou Hu are not enough to be alone, and the rest is only one Zhu Chun available.
Fortunately, after these days of getting along, Liu Ye has figured out Zhu Chun's attitude towards his master's family, and he is indeed full of resentment, and even wants to go to Danyang to wash away his father's grievances, otherwise, Wang Chong really doesn't dare to use Zhu Chun.
Zhu Chun assured with a resolute expression: "The lord can rest assured, but there is Chun, and he will never let Jiangdong cross the thunder pond one step!" ”
Zhu Chun's mood was somewhat excited, the importance of Liyang is self-evident, since Wang Chong is willing to send him to Liyang, it is enough to show his trust in him, and from a small Chaohu Lieutenant to the lord of a city in one fell swoop, his status in Jinfan has undoubtedly been substantially improved.
"Good!" Wang Chong's most satisfying point for Zhu Chun is his responsibility, "Tomorrow, you will lead three thousand soldiers to Liyang to replace my brother, Ziyang!" ”
Speaking of this, Wang Chong looked at Liu Ye and said: "You and Zhonghua go on the road together, after arriving in Liyang, assist my brother to lead the four thousand soldiers under his command to attack the counties of Jiujiang, within a month, I will make the entire Jiujiang County become my Jinfan's territory!" ”
"No!"
Compared with Zhuge Jin and Yan Gan, Liu Ye's task is relatively easy, after all, with the current situation, most of the counties in Jiujiang County will not resist, the reason why Gan Ning is brought with four thousand soldiers is to deter, and the other is to prevent accidents.
However, for Liu Ye, it is not difficult to take all Jiujiang, but the difficult thing is how to deal with the relationship between the Jiujiang family and Wang Chong.
Wang Chong's attitude towards the family is very tough, in Liu Ye's view, even above Sun Ce, if you want the two to live in peace, one party must take the lead in making a compromise, Liu Ye did not expect Wang Chong to compromise, so how to convince the family has become the top priority, if the other party is as tough as Wang Chong...... Tsk, the rhythm of a river of blood.
Fortunately, Huainan has long been tormented by Yuan Shu, and in the entire Han Dynasty, the family power here can be said to be the weakest.
is the so-called broken and then established, maybe what Wang Chong wants is for them to go against him, because only in this way can he have an excuse to attack these families, so Liu Ye can only do his best in this matter, and if these families still don't know what to do, Liu Ye can only mourn silently for them in his heart.
With 3,000 Chaohu soldiers and horses in exchange for the 4,000 old Jinfan under Gan Ning's command, Liyang's strength has not actually decreased much, plus the newly surrendered 5,000 soldiers, there are still 8,000 people, Wang Chong believes that with Zhu Chun's ability, it is enough to keep Liyang as stable as Mount Tai.
Then, Wang Chong set his eyes on Wang Shuang: "Ziquan, tomorrow Ling'er will join the cavalry battalion as a deputy general, I hope you can work together to build the cavalry battalion into an elite!" ”
Wang Shuang was a little dissatisfied with Wang Chong's arrangement, but Wang Chong was kind to him, even if he directly withdrew his position as commander of the cavalry battalion, he would not frown, not to mention that Lu Qiling's ability was indeed good, especially he had his own unique views on cavalry tactics, so he nodded and did not refuse.
After capturing Chaohu, Jinfan got hundreds of war horses, as long as a few hundred soldiers who are good at riding and archery are selected in Jinfan, the number of cavalry battalions can exceed a thousand, which is already a large force in the south where war horses are scarce.
Wang Chong looked at Lu Qiling, who was excited, and reminded: "Ling'er, it is not easy for a woman to be recognized by a sergeant in the army, I am only responsible for sending you to the cavalry camp, as for whether you can get their respect, it depends on your own ability." ”
Lu Qiling smiled confidently and said, "Brother, don't worry, my little sister will definitely take care of them!" ”
Wang Chong smiled and said no more, because he knew that Lu Qiling did have this ability.
"Zhou Hu!"
"The last general!" Zhou Hu stood up excitedly.
"I think you've heard that I want to expand the 'Iron Guard Battalion' to three thousand, and you can choose any soldiers from the Jinfan Army tomorrow, remember, even if the number of people does not reach three thousand, you must keep the 'Iron Guard Battalion' strong enough to combat effectiveness!"
Zhou Hu said triumphantly: "Don't worry, my 'Iron Guard Battalion' is the elite of the elite, if you don't meet the requirements, even if you come in, you will be kicked out sooner or later!" ”
The competition in the Iron Guard Camp is fierce, survival of the fittest, if your ability cannot be recognized by the peers around you, then you will definitely not stay in the Iron Guard Camp for too long, and the inhuman training methods in it are not something that everyone can bear.
