Chapter 202: Breaking the Army

For Uncle Mao, although Chen Dongfu has not seen him since he came to this world, he knows how much this old man has paid to the Chen family and Chen Kefu.

The Chen dynasty was a short-lived dynasty, with five emperors before and after, but only thirty-three years of dynastic rule. The founding emperor Chen Baxian was a hero, and he laid down the Chen family of the Southern Dynasty, which can be said to be a bull of the same era as Yang Jian. The history books of the past dynasties are full of praise for this cow. It's a pity that he has an unfilial son and grandson Chen Houzhu who is as quiet as Yang Jian's son, and he sent away the good country.

Throughout the era of Empress Chen, the Chen Dynasty was already a degenerate king. What is good at the top, but what is good at the bottom will be very bad! The absurdity of the Empress Chen also led to the ministers of the entire Southern Chen Dynasty, most of whom were ministers of this kind of jiān times.

However, the wind knows the strength of the grass, and the board dàng sees the loyal ministers. In the last days of Nan Chen, the crown prince of Nan Chen was an excellent prince who was praised by everyone, although his mother was the son of Zhang Lihua, who many people called the country of red face, and this crown prince was only obtained after his mother abolished the former prince. But he is recognized as a good prince, and if he can become the emperor of Southern Chen, maybe the Chen dynasty can last a few more years.

And the minister Mao Xi is the teacher of the crown prince Shen, Emperor Chen Xuan is the general of the cavalry, the leader of the middle room, the marquis of Dongchang County, and the virtue (583... 586) is the internal history of Nan'an, before the fall of the Chen Dynasty, he was the young master of the prince, teaching the prince to learn the literature. And Mao Xi is the most loyal, for Nan Chen has always been loyal, but unfortunately the loyal ministers are in a faint king, originally Mao Xi and Lu Shishen's father, the general Lu Youda and other loyal ministers, all put all their hopes on the crown prince, but unfortunately did not wait for the prince to ascend the throne, Nan Chen has been played by the queen Chen.

After the Chen family perished, Mao Xi was entrusted by the crown prince with many Chen courtiers and many loyal ministers like Lu Shishen, and secretly escaped from Jinling City with the newly born son of the crown prince Shen.

It can be said that the Mao family has really been loyal to his Chen Kefu family for several generations.

And from the perspective of the sī people, in the years in Zhuo County, Mao Xi treated him as a dead royal family, but he treated him better than his own son Mao Yi, which couldn't help but move Chen Kefu.

Now that he Chen Kefu is rising again, standing in Liaodong, the arrival of Uncle Mao undoubtedly makes him overjoyed. Not to mention anything else, he already knew that most of the forty or fifty-year-old family members in Chenjiazhuang were not ordinary people, and they were all officials in the palace of the crown prince of Nanchen in the Southern Chen Dynasty.

Now, although he is not a fierce general, he can be regarded as having a preliminary group of good generals who can help him lead his troops to fight. However, there is nothing left of Wen's set so far, and the entire Liaodong City is completely under military control.

In the past, it was forced by the times, but now, Hua has gained a foothold in Liaodong, and this internal affairs are very important. In the past, he had to rely on Li Jie to manage internal affairs, but Li Jie was not of the same mind as him, which was not a long-term solution.

Now the arrival of Mao Bo is tantamount to helping him solve this big problem. Uncle Mao was the young master of the crown prince of Nanchen back then, a very honorable and important position, this is no better than these wild people, that is a professional minister, people can hold such an important position in Nanchen, and it is natural to manage the current small Liaodong.

What's more, Chenjiazhuang is not only Uncle Mao, but also many officials in the prince's mansion, these people can be elected as officials in the prince's mansion back then, and they are all selected as the right-hand man of the next emperor, so how bad will it be.

Chen Kefu's handsome mansion in the inner city, as soon as Chen Kefu entered the door, he found that the white-haired Mao Bo was kneeling on a bearskin mat with his old acquaintance, Huang Xing, a general secretary, drinking tea, and Ono Lisa, like a hostess, with several Han women among the Goguryeo people.

Uncle Mao also saw Chen Kefu coming in at a glance, and hurriedly stood up, Uncle Mao was not very tall, and his back was already a little bowed, looking about 1.7 meters. is only over sixty years old, but he is already full of silver threads, and even his long beard is all silver. Wearing a white sè robe, with a simple belt tied around his waist, the whole person looks simple, but it is full of that elegant taste.

If it weren't for the fact that Chen Kefu was too muscular and underdeveloped in the past, as long as he was a smart person, he could see at a glance that Mao Bo's bearing could be a housekeeper in a small farm, this is obviously a Confucian full of righteousness. ,

Mao Bo got up and stood there quietly, and when Chen Kefu and Mao Yi wrote to him and told them about their situation in Liaodong, he was angry and angry. He never thought that Chen Kefu would run to enlist in the army and fight Goguryeo.

As time passed, the more letters we received, and the more we knew. From anger to surprise to disbelief, to final jī movement, joy, and relief. For the past that brain developed,

Chen Kefu, who is simple-minded and always makes mistakes, although Uncle Mao often sighs alone in the dead of night, feeling sorry for the crown prince's entrustment, and raising his hopes into a muddy boy, but occasionally he thinks that stupid people are blessings, maybe living a life in a muddy way like this is the best way for Chen Kefu.

He didn't expect that in just over half a year, the muddy boy in the past had changed little by little. Not only is he still so brave, but he has become smarter and enlightened.

When the Sui army withdrew and returned to Zhuo County that day, Mao Bo took the people of Chenjiazhuang to see Chen Kefu, but he did not expect to go with hope, but returned disappointed. The young master was actually left in Liaodong, and there were only 10,000 people. As soon as he thought of this, he felt extremely worried, and felt sorry for the deep trust of the crown prince who was far away.

In his opinion, the young master only took more than 10,000 men and horses to stay in Liaodong, which was a mortal situation.

Without thinking about it, he immediately recruited all the children of Chenjiazhuang, took out all the money and food of the Chen family, and recruited some men who were willing to go to Liaodong together. In a hurry, hundreds of people rushed over.

Along the way, I happened to catch up with Huang Xing, who came to deliver the message, and I happened to come together, and I walked for more than half a month, and I just arrived in Liaodong City. As soon as he entered Liaodong City, not only Huang Xing was stunned, but Mao Bo was also stunned. After meeting Chen Qing, a disciple of Chen Jiazhuang who stayed behind, Uncle Mao finally knew everything, even the idea of the young master's intention to restore the country.

He was naturally very pleased that the young master could have such thoughts. Today's Great Sui, in Mao Bo's view, is no different from the government of the later years, they are all like the death of the country. If the young master has such great ambitions, of course he is willing to dedicate everything for him.

When Chen Kefu saw this old man, his heart suddenly choked up, loyal and upright, this is an old man with traditional Chinese virtues, and it is also his relative. Walking up to him in three or two steps, Chen Kefu knelt down on his knees and made a big salute, just like a son giving a gift to his father.

Uncle Mao stepped aside with some trepidation, and hurriedly reached out to help, "Young master, this can't be helped, there is a difference between respect and inferiority, and it is not in line with etiquette." ”

"Uncle Mao, I have been raised by you since I was a child, and you are like my father, who gave me the grace of nurturing. Etiquette is no bigger than human affection, no matter how big the gift is, it is not as big as the family affection between you and me. Uncle Mao, you are my relative, let alone those etiquette between us. Since I have arrived in Liaodong, I will honor you like Mao Yi in the future. "Grown up, really grown up." Mao Bo's eyes were a little moist, and his heart was full of relief, Chen Kefu in the past couldn't say such a thing anyway. Although he was very close to him, he would never say such words. sighed in my heart, God has opened his eyes, and Chen's revival is hopeful.

Huang Xing, the general secretary, was left aside, but he was not half annoyed, and he and Chen Kefu were also a little familiar. Second, after coming to Liaodong City today, he finally knew the current situation in Liaodong. Fundamentally different from the speculation of the ministers of the DPRK and China, Chen Kefu not only was not besieged in Liaodong, but took Liaodong City a long time ago, and recently broke nearly 100 mountain cities in Liaodong.

Annihilated nearly 100,000 Liao troops, and the entire line of the Liao River basically fell into the hands of Chen Pojun. Such a result made him stunned for a long time when he first found out, and he couldn't believe it. However, after seeing the huge captive camps in Chen Cheng and the huge warehouses that had just been built, he finally believed it.

Chen Pojun originally thought that the emperor liked it, and at a young age, he was already named the founding marquis, and he was also a real general of the third grade. And the holy decree in his hand will also crown him as the prince of the country, and he can have 100,000 soldiers. is so young, only in his twenties, he can become a prince of the country with his own ability, and the future of such a person is limitless. And God knows, under Chen Kefu's record of taking Liaodong, destroying hundreds of enemy cities, annihilating more than ten enemies, and capturing hundreds of thousands of Goguryeo people.

What reward will this young prince get, he is already a prince at such a young age, does the Son of Heaven want to crown him king? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head, but his gaze at Chen Pojun was even more enthusiastic, he was just a small seven-grade generalist, if he could catch up with Chen Pojun, he would probably be more promising in the future. ,

"Young master, as soon as we met, I moved. But I forgot that Lord Huang was still on the side, Lord Huang brought the will of His Majesty the Emperor, you should take the decree quickly, you can't delay it. Mao Bo said apologetically to the nose. Although the general secretary is of low grade, after all, he is a person who walks in front of the emperor, and he cannot be offended.

Huang Xing looked at Chen Kefu's eyes full of enthusiasm, and he didn't have half the arrogance of the Son of Heaven walking in front of him, but lowered his head and said flatteringly, "Congratulations to the handsome, you have made this immortal achievement, and when the good news is spread to Your Majesty, I don't know how happy Your Majesty will be." Marshal, let's pass on the decree first, shall we? Seeing him in such a low profile, Chen Kefu also smiled and nodded.

The holy decree was chosen in the campus of Chengbei, and after receiving Huang Xing's will to reward him in advance, Chen Kefu had the heart to make the decree extremely grand.

On the campus field of Chengbei University, in addition to nearly 40,000 horses and horses who were not in Liaodong City, the remaining 40,000 soldiers and more than 300,000 craftsmen of the people all received orders and gathered in the North Campus Field.

With nearly 400,000 people, it is impossible to get off the school station. Only more than 40,000 soldiers can be lined up in a neat square array in the front, and the craftsmen in the back row are from the north of the city to the back. Most of the people have already lined up in the center of the city, not to mention that they won't hear the holy decree for a while, or even the figure of the north school field has long been invisible. However, there is an order from above, they can only line up like this, anyway, whatever is said in front, there will be a special herald cavalry to pass it back.

Set the incense case, welcome the holy decree!

Huang Xing also saw such a big scene for the first time, standing on the parade platform in the north school field, at a glance, all of them had to be the black armor of the Sui army soldiers, glowing with a faint cold light. Flags are like forests, gusts of wind blowing, hunting sounds.

Headed by Chen Kefu, all the lieutenants and officers above the regimental level in the army knelt down to obey the order. Even Abao Cave and the others, although they are foreigners, but now they are almost Chen Kefu's subordinates, and they are all kneeling aside in the face of the holy decree of the Great Sui Emperor.

"Zuotun Wei General Chen Kefu listens to the seal!" "Chen Kefu listens to the seal!"

"Emperor Sui Order! In the ninth year of the Great Cause, Wang Shi attacked Goguryeo, and in August, the division triumphed, and the general Chen Kefu led his troops and horses to stay in Liaodong. The great general Chen Kefu did his duty wholeheartedly and made great contributions.

Now he is specially ordered, and Chen Kefu is promoted to the first product of Shangzhu State, the second product of Zuo Guanglu Doctor, and the Duke of Jin Jue Liaoguo, and the real food is sealed 1,000 households. He was awarded the marshal of the Liaodong Marching Army, and ordered him to recruit 100,000 troops on the spot to form the Liaodong Marching Marshal's Office. All the generals and leaders of the Liaodong Marching Marshal's Mansion were all held by Chen Kefu and the loyal and brave men first, and then reported to the imperial court! Chin this! ”

Today's scene is grand, Huang Xing is also very solemn, a holy decree is the words that are recited, the tone is abrupt, and the voice is loud!

"Duke Liao, please accept the order and thank you!" Huang Xing's face was full of smiles, and he reminded Chen Kefu, who was kneeling there and had not moved for a long time.

Chen Kefu came back to his senses as soon as he reminded him, and this will can be said to be really beyond his expectations. Originally, he thought that Yang Guang gave him the holy decree because he couldn't send troops to pick him up, so he planned to pass on a decree and give him a reward of gold and silver fields or something to comfort him. At most, it is estimated that it will be promoted to another level of loose officials or something, but I didn't expect that this holy decree would be like this.

Such a reward really makes people feel like it's a dream. The Commander rose directly to the top level, the Upper Pillar Country. The scattered officials also reached the second order, and they also made the top Liao Guogong of personal ministers. Although the fief is also within the enemy territory of Liaodong, it is also a first-class nobleman of the Great Sui from now on, and it can be passed on to future generations.

Each of these things, taken out alone, is something that makes people laugh in a happy dream.

However, Chen Kefu was stunned just now not because of this, but because of the position of the marshal of the Liaodong march in the back.

The official position of marshal of the Liaodong march army is a temporary official position, not a long-term official position. In the early years, when the army went out to fight, it was to choose a general as the main general and grant the right to command the army, which was generally the general manager.

If there are more soldiers and horses, it is the general manager of the march, and if it is a little more advanced, it is the general manager of the march, and the general commander has at least 100,000 soldiers and horses. And one level higher, that is the marching marshal, above the marching marshal, then only the emperor is left to drive the expedition.

Since the opening of the Great Sui Dynasty, there are very few people who have served as marching marshals, as far as he knows, only seven have served as marching marshals, the general Wei Xiaokuan, the Duke of Yue Guo Yang Su, the veteran general Zhongwen,

Le'an Gongyuan, Yang Shuang, King of Wei, Yang Liang of Han, and of course, one of the most famous is that when Emperor Yang Guang was still the King of Jin, he was the marshal of the marching army and the general manager of 90 roads. ,

Since the late Yang Jian, the post of marching marshal has rarely been granted, and if it is a big battle, it is generally the prince as the marching marshal, and then the general is sent as the deputy marshal. After Yang Guang became the emperor, no one had ever been this marshal anymore, and he didn't expect that he, Chen Kefu, would now become a marching marshal.

The commander of the marching marshal must be at least 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the soldiers and horses under the command of Yang Guang when he was the marshal were 90 road commanders and 540,000 troops. It can be said that he Chen Kefu has won this position of marching without marshal, and he will inevitably leave a name in history. After all, he is the eighth marshal of the Great Sui, and his name alone is already very majestic.

However, speaking of which, he Chen Kefu is also the most embarrassing marching marshal, who became a marshal and started with an elite army of 100,000. He is also a marshal, but fortunately, he only has 10,000 elite soldiers under his command, plus Yang Guangsheng's decree allowed him to recruit 100,000 soldiers on the spot, and he almost became a light pole marshal.

But even so, even if Yang Guang really gave him the title of marching marshal with an empty name, he would still be happy. He Chen Kefu now has food, money, weapons, and people, but the poor one is such a name.

If it is an ordinary person in command, the soldiers and horses under his subordinates are all drawn from all over the country, and there are at least two marching deputy marshals below, one marching Sima, and one marching commander, these are all generals who can supervise and balance the marshal. With them, the imperial court does not have to worry about the generals supporting their own troops.

However, now Chen Kefu, the light marshal, is different, and he is the only one officially appointed by the DPRK and the Central Committee in the entire marching marshal's mansion. Even the deputy marshal of the march, the marching Sima, and the marching commander Shi were not appointed. This made him feel a little suspicious in his heart.

Yang Guang is not a very generous person, on the contrary, he is a relatively stingy person. When he does things, he is extremely powerful and very atmospheric. But in terms of dealing with the title and official system of the Great Sui, he is a very stingy person. As far as he knew, as long as the main posts in the DPRK and China became vacant, then basically he would not confer them to others. Such an emperor, except for the Wanli Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that no one has experienced more harm than him. Wanli is six books, six books, twelve shìlang, only two shangshu and six or seven shìlang, more ruthless than him.

Not long ago, Yang Guang even had to remove the titles of marquis from the title system of king, duke, candidate, earl, son, and man, but such a person was so generous to him, and he was promoted to a dispersion officer, a chief officer, and a knighthood. was so generous to a marching marshal that only a prince can serve, how abnormal is this.

Moreover, Yang Guang rewarded him like this, but there are still Pei Valve who is completely opposite to him in this court, and Li Que behind Li Jie, they can't just watch themselves rise like this.

Moreover, the imperial court still doesn't know about his exploits in Liaodong, and it is impossible for them to reward him so generously because he stayed in Liaodong. If this is the case, I believe that someone has already rushed to stay in Liaodong, so it will be his turn.

Chen Kefu kowtowed three times to the holy decree, shouted thanksgiving, and took the holy decree.

After receiving the holy decree, he already said that this set of procedures had been completed, and he Chen Kefu was already the most newly released marshal of the Liaodong march and the Duke of Liao.

After smiling and coping with Huang Xing's congratulations, Chen Kefu asked suspiciously, "Lord Huang, what happened in the Central Plains?" ”

Huang Xing pulled Chen Kefu to the side and whispered in his ear, "It is indeed a big incident, originally when His Majesty arrived in Beiping County that day, he was discussing with the ministers to send a large army to pick up the marshal back to the Central Plains." But who would have thought that the old man Fan who stayed behind in the eastern capital came with an urgent report, saying that Yang Xuan felt that the thieves were powerful, and the eastern capital was in danger, and there were more than 40 noble children in the capital who had already surrendered to the thieves, including the children of the royal family, and the sons of many ministers such as the commander of the water master and the imperial historian Pei Yun and many other ministers also surrendered to the thieves. His Majesty was furious, and the ministers were frightened, so they rushed to the Central Plains overnight that day. ”

Huang Xingdang was also in the banquet, because he was very clear about the situation at that time, and at this time, he also flattered Chen Kefu to tell Chen Kefu all the situation as it was, from the emperor's reaction, to Li Ji's attitude, and the behavior of the Pei family.

Knowing the events of the day, and then connecting all the causes and consequences of the matter, Chen Kefei turned in her mind for a long time, and finally understood what the situation was before and after. It's not that Yang Guang is suddenly generous and arrogant, but that he is regarded as an outcast.

Just like those anti-Japanese war dramas, the generals of the party-state who were besieged and bound to die would generally receive a telegram of all promotions before hanging up. Now he Chen Kefu is similar in the hearts of Yang Guang and other ministers, the eastern capital is in danger, and no one is willing to send troops to take him back at such a moment. ,

And in their minds, it is difficult for Chen Kefu, who cannot be received by the army, to hold on until the army arrives again, so at this time, make a little compensation for him who has to give up.

Anyway, from beginning to end, the Great Sui only took out a powerless loose official, plus a fief that was still the territory of another country, and then an empty title of marshal with a light pole.

Huang Xing stared at Chen Kefu, originally he thought that Chen Kefu would be very angry after knowing such a truth. After all, the taste of an abandoned son is unpleasant, but the strange thing is that after Chen Kefu found out, he just hummed lightly, without any angry look, and he couldn't even see the slightest thought in his heart from his ancient face.

In fact, Chen Kefu is indeed not angry, what is there to be angry, although he is a little depressed in his heart. But when he thought about it, wasn't that what he had been looking forward to the most?

The army followed Yang Guang south to the Central Plains. If you want to go north to Liaodong at that time, you can basically only wait until next year. Half a year is long enough. In the past six months, he has been the uncrowned king of the entire Liaodong, he has food, money, weapons, people, and now he has the official title of the court. The sky is high and the birds are flying, and the sea is wide and the fish is jumping, and he feels this way now.

Chen Kefu turned around and stood on the parade platform, looking at the soldiers below who were happier than him. With a slight smile in his heart, this is the worst army and the best army.

The worst is because this army has only a small number of veterans, and the rest are all new recruits. Moreover, in these successive battles, when attacking Liaodong City, hundreds of battlefields were lost, more than 1,000 soldiers and horses were killed and disabled when the ambush was higher than Zhenshi, and nearly 3,000 soldiers and horses were lost in the Battle of Jinshan.

His army has been reduced by almost 6,000 people, and among these 6,000 people, nearly 1,000 are veterans of the broken barracks that he relied on.

Ninety and a half of the soldiers are recruits, who have not undergone a long period of training, and are all recruits who hurriedly put on their armor and hold up their swords. From low-level officers to middle-level officers, the core command force of this unit is also helpless.

Compared with any army of the Great Sui, even if it is not compared with the most elite Praetorian Guard in the Beijing Division, or compared with the ordinary foreign soldiers of the Great Sui, these soldiers are incomparable, and even the two armies are fighting each other, and they are vulnerable. Not to mention being on a par with those border troops of the Great Sui.

But in his eyes, this column is the best force of this era.

Because they are new, they don't have veterans, they don't have that group of low-level and middle-level officers, all of which are also their merits. is like a blank piece of paper, these nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses can be left to him Chen Kefu to splash ink.

Without all kinds of bad habits in the Sui army, there would be no such veteran oils and veteran ruffians. There won't be so many factions up and down, in the countryside. The generals here are all his old subordinates of Chen Kefu, and all the soldiers are not organized according to the township. They have the best armor and weapons, and the most abundant money and supplies. There won't even be those blind commands that interfere with each other.

Stretching out his hands, Chen Kefu raised his head slightly, feeling that everything that belonged to him, he wanted to make this army the strongest army in this era.

"Brethren! His Majesty the Emperor has an order to set up the Marshal's Mansion of the Liaodong Marching Army from today and recruit 100,000 soldiers on the spot. From today on, we are the soldiers and horses of the Liaodong Army, and we eat food as soldiers! All the officers and generals in the army will be the official officers of my Great Sui, and all the soldiers, you are also different from ordinary government soldiers. I entered the Marshal's Mansion of the Liaodong Marching Army, fought as a soldier, not only killed the enemy, but also won the first rank and reward. And they will also be paid a fixed salary every month, twice a month for ordinary soldiers. As long as you are brave in battle, you will reward officials, money, and women! When the soldiers heard that Chen Kefu had been awarded the title of Duke of the State and the Marshal of the March, they were moved. After all, the bigger the commanders of their own family, the more they will be promoted, and the people under them will also hope to be promoted in the future.

But now that the marshal has declared to them so red, not only will the military positions of these generals become official positions immediately, but they will also be paid every month, they will all be even more moved.

Especially those officers, whether they are regiment commanders, battalion commanders, company commanders, or platoon commanders, in the past, they always felt that although they became platoon commanders, they were also in the military position of Zhengjiupin, but they always felt a little unreliable.

But now His Majesty the Great Emperor has granted the Grand Marshal full powers, and as soon as the Grand Marshal Chrysostom is opened, they will all be real officers, so they can not be happy. ,

The minions were equally happy, and from then on they were full-fledged soldiers, and if they fought well, they would be rewarded for killing the enemy. Even if you can't kill the enemy, you still have a fixed salary, and such a good thing is hard to find.

In the past seven years, the world has been full of disasters and difficulties, either drought or flooding, coupled with the rise of thieves everywhere, the lives of the people in the Central Plains have been a mess. Everything is expensive, and taxes are more. The lives of the common people are getting more and more difficult, and even those veterans among them were only government soldiers in the past. The imperial court is only responsible for the logistics of grain and grass, and in addition to killing the enemy and getting rewards, they only have a little subsidy for fighting.

Such a small subsidy is simply not enough to make up for the production they have delayed when they go out, but the army of the marshal is different. Not only is the food and drink good, but the rewards for killing the enemy are also more abundant than ever. A first-level ten-run line, a war horse five-run money, and all of this money is good meat, not those white money, this is really good money. In recent years, the price of goods in the Central Plains has become higher and higher, basically at least 50 wen for rice, Henan and Shandong have been affected by several expeditions to Liao, and the thieves are the most serious, and the price of rice there has broken through 100 wen for doumi, or even 200 wen.

Ordinary soldiers pay two times a month, which seems to be not much, but this is only the most basic, every time after the battle, there are all kinds of rewards, and there are even more rewards for making war achievements. Since staying in Liaodong, the veterans of the broken military camp, when they conquered Liaodong, they have received the most rewards, at least forty or fifty yuan per person at a time, and the food and salary of these veterans is at least five yuan per month, and these have been on the battlefield several times, basically everyone has more or less first-level merit, and a first-level is ten yuan. It's only been a month, and many veterans who have broken the barracks have already accumulated hundreds of dollars.

After several big victories in a row, each soldier received so many rewards in a row, and gradually, everyone didn't really care much about staying in Liaodong, and they didn't have the fear they had when they first stayed.

If they return to the Central Plains, they will either be sent to quell the rebellion, or they will be disbanded and go home to farm, such a year, even if the weather is good all year round, and there is no disaster or harm, how many can they harvest? At the end of the year, after paying taxes and food, it is a question of whether you can earn food and clothing for the whole family. And now in Liaodong, it is less than a year, to be precise, they have already earned dozens or hundreds of dollars in the month after they stayed in Liaodong. Where can such a good thing be found? If this continues, in a few years, they will be able to save a large amount of money, and then they will be able to buy a lot of land in their hometown and become a country man.

"Brothers, Ben Shuai announced that all the soldiers and the three armies will celebrate together, and all the soldiers will be rewarded with ten pounds of money, two catties of good wine, and a three-day holiday!" At the end, he remembered that there were more craftsmen and men in the army, Chen Kefu thought about it, and said, "All craftsmen will also be rewarded with ten times, and all people will also be rewarded with two times!" "Anyway, now he has a lot of gold, silver and copper coins in his hand, and these things can't be used to make weapons, and there is no place to spend them, so he simply takes them out and rewards them to the soldiers and people. And so it goes. That is, it buys the hearts of the people, and secondly, it can also alleviate the homesickness of the soldiers. After all, there was no way to stay at the beginning, and now the Goguryeo people on the Liaoshui line have finished playing, and there will definitely be people who want to return to the Central Plains.

In a word, two million dollars are gone.

The money has always weighed six catties and four taels, and two million yuan of money, that is, more than 12 million catties, which is thousands of tons, and if you throw them together, it will be a copper mountain. Now the soldiers in the army have basically saved at least a few dozen pounds of money each, which is a few hundred catties of copper coins.

Huang Xing stood aside and said enviously, "The handsome man is really bold, even a small soldier is rewarded with 10,000 yuan, and even those people can be rewarded with five dollars, which is really enviable." ”

The Xiaoguo cavalry who escorted him on the side also said enviously from the Wupin Wuyong Lang general, "Yes, I am a general from the Wupin, and Yuelu is only 150 stone meters." According to the current doumi hundred wen money, my Lang will only be one hundred and fifty yuan a month, but even a small soldier under your account can't compare. Huang Xing smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Zhang, you still have 150 stone of rice a month, and I only have 80 stone a month, and I only have 80 yuan a month, so I am the person who should cry the poor." No, Dashuai, I won't leave at all, I'll just stay with you as a pawn, I believe that Dashuai won't treat me badly. ”,

Looking at the cake where the two sang and harmonized, Chen Kefu smiled, "The two adults are laughing, right now, they just won a big battle, and all the handsome people are good at making propositions and giving everyone a big reward." After all, His Majesty ordered me to stay in Liaodong, but there were no soldiers and horses for me, if I couldn't be kind to these soldiers, then the Liao people would surround me, and I could find someone to go with me. I really want to keep Lord Huang to make a long history under my account, but unfortunately Lord Huang, you are a celebrity in front of Your Majesty, and Ben Shuai doesn't dare to force him to stay. "Marching Commander Shi and Marching Sima sound similar, but the two positions are far apart. The marching Sima was equivalent to the chief of staff in later generations, and was to assist the marshal in commanding the troops. And the marching chief Shi is actually equivalent to the marshal's secretary, a strategist, and it is his responsibility to give advice, but he does not have the right to command the army. However, although he can't lead troops, his grade is very high, and the long history of a marching marshal's mansion is equivalent to three grades.

Huang Xing's eyes lit up, but thinking about his current position, he could only smile helplessly. "This is what the marshal said, and when I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely come to the marshal's tent to serve." "The two adults have worked hard all the way over, this time we have captured several good things in Buyeo City, in addition to the things that are selected and ready to be presented to His Majesty, there are still a few gadgets, if the two adults don't dislike it, then take it. After speaking, Chen Kefu called Zhang Jin and asked him to take the two of them to the warehouse to choose gifts.

finally sent the two away, and as soon as Chen Kefu turned his head, he found that all the generals in the army were looking at him eagerly. As if he were a mountain of gold, Chen Kefu smiled, of course he understood the meaning in the eyes of these generals.

Today, the holy decree named him the marshal of the march, and asked him to form the marshal of the Liaodong marching army, but no other officers were designated. Instead, let Chen Kefu take full responsibility, and he will appoint officers and generals at all levels in the marshal's mansion.

What are the generals in a marshal's office? This is a lot, under the marching marshal, there can also be two marching deputy marshals, as well as a marching Sima, and a marching chief. The marching marshal, who is led by the prince himself, is a positive product, and his position is higher than that of the third duke. The deputy marshal is much lower, for the second grade, the marching Sima is the third grade, and the marching chief is from the third grade. These positions are all high-ranking generals, which are equivalent to the generals of the Twelve Guards and Four Mansions. As long as you hold this position, the official uniform can be changed to purple sè, Sui system, from the third rank and above, the purple sè, the highest rank of the official to wear sè.

And under these positions, as a rule, it is the general manager. The general manager is also divided into large and small general managers, such as the marching general of the unified army and the small general of the unified battalion. The marching commander of the first army is from the third rank, and the commander of the first battalion is the fourth rank, and the rank is very high, but all the positions are temporary, and the soldiers must be returned after the battle, so there is still a big difference from the main position of the general.

But no matter what, this time is different from the last reorganization, and last time Chen Kefu did not have the emperor's authorization.

Therefore, although he reorganized the army, in the end, due to the official system of the Sui Dynasty, he could only bypass it and set up many temporary military positions, such as the commander of the division, brigade, regiment, battalion, company, and platoon. But this time it was different, with the official mandate of the emperor, he was able to appoint official generals. And this time the power is greater, and all military positions from the second rank down can be appointed. Although nominally these temporary military posts were only valid in wartime, they had to be agreed to by the DPRK and China. But everyone knows that as long as the appointment is made, it will take effect.

Not only the generals such as Shen Guang, Lu Shishen, and Li Shimin had eyes shining like wolves, but also the old General Li Benlei and Li Jie, who had always been wrong with him, couldn't hide their inner feelings.

The old man has fought all his life, and the highest is only a positive fourth grade, but now he has a good chance to become a third grade or even a second grade, for a soldier, the marquis is in command, it is a lifelong pursuit and dream, how can he not move.

"Generals, at present, Your Majesty has ordered me to set up the Marshal Mansion of the Liaodong Marching Army, and everything must be done by ourselves. So, in my opinion, we will go back to the barracks now to discuss how to form this Liaodong Marching Marshal's Mansion, how about it? Shen Guang and Lu Shishen, the two anxious people, couldn't wait for a long time, and said busily, "Okay, okay, go now, go right away!" ”

Especially Li Shimin and Guo Xiaoke, both of whom had violated military discipline before and were demoted to reserve officers. However, this time the two of them went north to fight, and they both made a lot of military achievements, and now that the general has been promoted to marching marshal, then they will definitely be able to resume their military positions with their military merits, and it is not impossible that they can even be promoted by one or two levels. Thinking of this, the eyes of the two were more enthusiastic than others.
