Chapter 186: Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight
The first meeting with Chen Wan was still very pleasant, and after talking with Lan Tingxuan for a long time, Yi Feng personally arranged for her to rest at the White Horse Inn, and did not take her back to the Shuai Mansion. After settling Chen Wan, Yi Feng said goodbye and left, when they parted, Chen Wan looked at Yi Feng a little inseparable, as if there were more words hidden in her heart and not spoken. In Lan Tingxuan, she had already told him unmistakably that they had already made a marriage engagement, and she had been looking for and waiting for him all these years and never gave up. It wasn't that Yi Feng couldn't feel the meaning in her gaze, but he couldn't respond for a while.
How will he respond? Yi Feng's inner intuition told him that what Chen Wan and what she said should be true. But even so, so what?
He already has two wives and concubines who are about to give birth to children for him, Qianxue and Rose, and now the two girls in the Shuai Mansion, Qinglian and Mulan, have also followed him, and even Ji Yao has not arranged it yet, and there is another fiancée at this time, what does he say?
On the way back to Shuaifu from the White Horse Inn, there were teams of people greeting relatives everywhere.
White horses, sedan chairs, red silk, and musicians who preach!
The army had just issued a large reward of hundreds of thousands of yuan, and then issued an order to go on an expedition, and in this case, there were tens of thousands of Huaihuang sergeants who had already decided to marry through the blind date meeting. A small number of weddings have already been held, but many were originally prepared to wait for the reward to be handed out, and then the wedding will be completed around the end of the year. But now that the reward has been handed out and the expedition is imminent, many soldiers are in a hurry to complete the marriage.
Getting married before the expedition is also an ancient custom. After all, knives and guns have no eyes. No one knows if they will be able to return after the expedition. At this time, even if there is a real case, it would be good if there was some blood left.
This kind of thinking for the soldiers. Yi Feng is also understandable.
"Does the Shuai Mansion give a reward to the married soldiers?"
Wei Chi Jingde, who followed Yi Feng's side, replied: "Cangcao has already sent ten horses of silk and eight thousand money to each soldier who is married according to his father's instructions. For officers above the sergeant level, there are additions. ”
In the past two days, countless soldiers have rushed to welcome their relatives and get married, and Cangcao also opened the warehouse and pulled out a cart of money and silk to distribute rewards, and all of a sudden it was more than 100,000 yuan of money and silk. Several warehouses were empty. However, Yi Feng is not distressed about this money, firstly, Huaihuang is not too short of money at the moment, and secondly, he wants to reward the relatives and soldiers. It is also necessary. Morale and loyalty are not something that can be obtained for no reason, Yi Feng sees these very clearly, although loyalty may not necessarily be bought with money. But if there is no money. Others don't necessarily have to be loyal to you. For each soldier who got married, the marshal gave ten silk horses and eight thousand money, which added up to more than a dozen, and 10,000 soldiers got more than 100,000 guan. And as soon as it goes down, it will become a rule in the future, but Yi Feng thinks it's worth it. A soldier is only married once in his life, but the soldiers who receive this reward will certainly be very grateful.
"There are also many students who have graduated from the martial arts hall this time who have chosen to get married in these two days. Invitations were also delivered. "Cheng Yanjin is riding a jujube red horse, and this treasure is less than five feet tall at the shoulder. But the speed is extremely fast, not only the explosiveness is good, but also the patience is excellent, in the Huaihuang held several horse races, this horse once only took an hour, ran two hundred and sixty miles, quite good, and was later given by Yi Feng to Cheng Biting Jin. Yu Chigong's current mounts are almost all given by Yi Feng, all of them are grassland horses, exchanged with silk and tea and Hu people, and then selected the best ones in the pastures of Huai Huang, and then trained as war horses. Hu Ma was originally extremely expensive, and the war horses were even sold for more than 100 guan, but after the establishment of Huaihuang Border City, Yi Feng did entrepot trade between the grassland and the Central Plains, and the number of transactions on both sides increased greatly, and the price also plummeted.
Now the horse market in Huaifa, with tea for horses, with ten catties of tea as a grate, on the horse for twelve grates, in the horse for nine grates, off the horse for seven grates. And if the silk is exchanged, forty silks are put on the horse, thirty-five are the middle horse, and twenty-five silk are dismounted. At this price, in fact, the price of the horse has dropped to almost one ten. However, the price of well-trained war horses is still high, and they are generally priceless, and Huaihuang is basically trained by himself, and a well-trained war horse is more than ten times the price of ordinary horses. There are many war horses in the current military horse farm in Huaihuang, most of them are captured, these horses are first-class horses, many of them are also used for riding and fighting, and after sending some horse tamers to domesticate for a period of time, they have become more and more excellent. Nowadays, the cavalry battalion not only has horses, but also has two horses, and there is a surplus of war horses in the army.
At present, the first phase of training in the Lecture Martial Arts Hall has ended, and the Du Team Class and the Wu Gang Leader Rotation Training Class have all ended, because Yi Feng serves as the Shanzheng of the Lecture Martial Hall, so these students can also be regarded as his disciples. When the students got married, they basically went to the marshal's mansion to send invitations in person according to etiquette.
"Give each of the married students of the Wu Gangchang class 20 cakes of tea, two bottles of red wine, and two horses of red silk. In addition to 20 cakes of tea, two bottles of red wine and two horses of red silk, each team will receive a pair of Shu brocade and a pair of celadon bottles. Yi Feng thought for a while and said, he valued these students who were nominally his disciples, and he also intended to use guò to give this kind of gift, to get closer to them, and in the hearts of the soldiers, to create a status of confidant status of the students of the martial arts hall.
The streets on the dusk day are full of festive looks.
Counting the days, the light snow and the rose are almost here. If it weren't for the weight of the two of them, it would have been there.
"Go and invite Mr. Wei, Uncle Gao, Uncle Zhang, and Mrs. Gao to come over." As soon as he entered the Shuai's Mansion, Yi Feng immediately reported a series of names and asked Cheng Yanjin and others to invite someone.
Not long after the White Tiger Hall discussion ended, Ling Yun came to invite him again, and Wei Zheng and the others didn't dare to slack off, and they all rode over again.
"What happened?" As soon as Wei Zheng entered the study, he hurriedly asked.
Yi Feng's current shogunate was reorganized on the basis of the original Yitong shogunate, and Wei Zheng now holds the position of advisor to the army in the shogunate, which is equivalent to the post of chief of staff. Now Yi Feng is in charge of a state in charge of more than a dozen military towns and tens of thousands of horses, and focuses on the military, so he also intends to increase the staff system, but in this era there are actually some staff officers, but there is no perfect system, such as consulting and participating in the military, in fact, the responsibility is to Kuangzheng Shogunate, consulting and consulting affairs. Yi Feng did not make any changes to the various official positions of the shogunate, but made some corrections to their positions. In the shogunate, under Yi Feng, the general, were the two official positions of Changshi and Sima, Changshi was to assist in the management of affairs and be in charge of civil affairs, similar to the position of prime minister, while Sima was to assist the general in managing military affairs. Because of the importance of this position, Yi Feng divided the position of Sima into left and right Sima, and assisted him in commanding the troops and horses respectively.
After Changshi and Sima, there are three military advisers, records, and records, and these three military officers were given important tasks by Yi Feng, and the advisers were assigned important tasks, and the advisers were equivalent to his chief of staff of the shogunate, and the records and military affairs were somewhat similar to the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection or the director of the political department in the army, and the secretary of the military office was equivalent to the chief of staff. Below the three military rooms are the six Cao military officers, and below them are the positions of marching to join the army and joining the army. Although the original advisory staff was also responsible for the staff officers, there was no staff group under the ministry, so Yi Feng has now strengthened this part, and a new group of full-time staff officers have been set up in the general's office, which are under the responsibility of the advisory and military staff, and even staff organs have been set up at all levels in the army, which are led by the advisory and military commanders at all levels.
Under this adjustment, Wuzhou now has the Shogunate as the highest decision-making and command body, and the department setting and personnel arrangements of the Shogunate of Wuzhou are actually just one more brand of the Shogunate.
Wei Zheng was a consultant military officer, responsible for the entire Huaihuang Senate military aircraft, and in the shogunate, he had already established his position with Changshi and the four giants of Sima left and right.
"The Bayegu and the Khitans are fighting."
Yi Feng told Chen Wan the latest information about him, but he didn't say anything about Chen Wan.
Wei Zheng pinched his chin and pondered, and after a while, he said: "If this is the case, then I will suspend the plan to send troops and send someone to the Khitan to contact the Dahe Duluo of the Khitan Junction Department." ”
This is a euphemism, but the real meaning is actually to let Yi Feng sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and wait until Bayegu and Su Ben are both defeated, and it is not too late for Huaihuang to make a move. Compared with Wei Zheng's tactfulness, Pei Zeng, who was the former deputy leader of the Tiger League and now serves as the Zuo Sima of the General's Mansion, said unabashedly: "Originally, I was afraid that they would not fight, but now it's okay, since the Khitans have suffered a loss, and Bayegu is so arrogant, then let them fight well." We are not in a hurry to go north, even if the Khitan loses, there are still several tribes in the Khitan, and if the Khitan loses, there will still be Xi. This Bano Gu wants to go all the way smoothly, but it won't be so easy. We just need to send some people over to cheer up the Khitans first, saying that we will send troops to support them at any time, and strengthen their courage. Recently, there have been a lot of wedding banquets, and I haven't drunk enough of so many good old men. ”
Gao Bo, who is a long history, also nodded in agreement at this time, and the people who are not the most worried about Huaihuang. No matter how fierce the people are, the soldiers and horses who are now in the wilderness are not afraid of them. However, at the moment, it is the Turks in the west who are still worried, and no one knows when the Turks will be dispatched, in case of a fight with the Bayegu people, the Turks suddenly come behind their backs, but they can't stand it. Now it's okay, the Baye Gu people are so arrogant, then let the Khitan fight with them. "You can send a cavalry north first, and you don't need more, the key is to show our support for the Khitans, and let them go and fight with the Bayegu people. Even if necessary, we can support a batch of Khitan ordnance. The ordnance of each village that we seized earlier is varied, and most of them are still pressed in the warehouse, and it is useless to keep them, so it is better to send a batch to the Khitans. ”
