Chapter 177: Sealing Officials and Celebrating Banquets (Weekend Update)

The order of the Luoyang Imperial Court to appoint Chu Tian as the minister of Langya soon spread from Luoyang to Xiacheng.

With his own strength and Mi Zhu bribing the ten permanent servants, Chutian obtained the official position of Langya State Minister, and the imperial court ordered him to crusade against the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army as soon as possible.

The princes who were in charge of the crusade against the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army together with Chutian also included the Qingzhou Assassin Shi Jiaohe and the Qingzhou Army of Beihai Xiang Kong Rong, the Yanzhou Army of Yanzhou Assassin Liu Dai and Dongjun Taishou Cao Cao, and the Xuzhou Army of Xuzhou Assassin Shi Taoqian. There were armies of three states in total.

Qingzhou Thorn Shi Jiaohe, like Kong Rong, lacked the ability to lead troops into battle. There were a lot of Han troops in Qingzhou, and their weapons were still sharp, but they were beaten by the Qingzhou Yellow Turban and fled.

The Qingzhou Army can't count on it.

The imperial court attached more importance to the Yanzhou Army and the Xuzhou Army.

"Dongjun Taishou Cao Cao ......"

Chu Tian has not met Cao Cao, the number one person in the early Three Kingdoms period, so far. Tao Qian, Yuan Shao, Lu Bu, Yuan Shu, Wu Huan, and Ma Chao all collapsed like an avalanche in front of Cao Cao.

And now Cao Cao, with the help of players, is even stronger than in history.

The only ones who could contain Cao Cao were Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, and a few player lords.

"Congratulations to the lord on his promotion to the prime minister of Langya!"

A group of officials came to celebrate.

Chu Tian now has to think about giving his subordinates an official title.

In the past, the territory was not large, and one person could often hold several positions at the same time, and there was no clear division of positions, and after becoming the minister of Langya, he could appoint a group of officials on his own.

There are formal positions under the prime minister of Langya, and Chutian can also set up some false positions.

First of all, it is necessary to confirm the long history of one person. Changshi is equivalent to a county cheng, assisting the Minister of Langya in handling internal affairs, and is the second-in-command second only to the Minister of State.

Chu Tian selected Fang Xuanling among the three people, Fang Xuanling, Xia Liang, and Li Kui, to serve as the chief historian.

Changshi has the greatest pressure and has to deal with other officials, so it is better for Fang Xuanling, who is both intellectually and politically high, to serve as Changshi.

Fang Xuanling served as the chief historian and the history of Gong Cao, and the history of Gong Cao was responsible for assessing the merits of various officials.

Chu Tian once promised Xia Liang to appoint her as the long history, and as compensation, Chu Tian ordered her to be the Kaiyang Order, the City Cao History, and the Master of the Office History.

To this appointment, Ryo Summer gladly accepted. She also didn't want to be under too much pressure.

In fact, the power of the Kaiyang Order is very large, the city Cao Shi manages the market and the city tax, and as for the main record office history, it is mainly to help Chu Tian arrange meetings and make records......

Chu Tian had to hold a meeting every time he made an important decision.

Then there was Li Kui, who was appointed by Chutian as the Commander of the Peasants, the History of Fa Cao, and the History of Hu Cao, to manage agriculture, law, and household registration.

In addition to these three people, Chutian also set up positions such as the history of the thief Cao, the history of Cangcao, and the superintendent of the five departments, which were filled by special talents.

There are not many historical civil officials under Chu Tian's command, and it is impossible for every department to be managed by historical figures.

As long as Chu Tian takes the personnel assessment, money and food, laws, and household registration in his own hands, some other administrative departments don't have to worry too much.

This is a civilian official, and there is also a military attaché.

"Appoint Mulan's cavalry lieutenant."

Chu Tian counted Mulan's contributions.

Killed Zhang Min, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army in Xuzhou, killed Zhang Liang, one of the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army, shot and wounded Yang Wanchun, the lord of Anshi City, captured Zang Ba, broke 30,000 people of Taishan thief, and attacked Lingcheng at night......

There is also the credit of the earliest start.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to appoint a cavalry lieutenant, and the other generals have no opinion.

Then there is Zhou Yafu, who captured the most villages and towns, Zhou Yafu also has the credit of capturing Guangzong City, Langya City, blocking Xu Sheng, and participating in the defeat of Wu Sangui's army.

Xue Rengui had the merit of defeating the bandits and leading the heavy cavalry to defeat Xu Sheng, and was responsible for guarding the lord's mansion.

Li Guang participated in the First National War, the Battle of Yangdu County, beheaded the Minister of Langya, and visited Sima.

Xu Sheng surrendered, with the credit of breaking Wu Sangui, and commanded the sailor battalion, and paid homage to Sima of the other department.

Zang Ba worshiped Sima of the other department, and Sun Guan, Sun Kang, Yin Li, Wu Dun and others worshiped the army and fake Sima, and served as the deputy generals of Zang Ba, Xu Sheng, Li Guang, Zhou Yafu and others.

Among the military attachés, Hua Mulan and Zhou Yafu, who have the longest qualifications, have the highest official positions, and Xue Rengui is just a miscellaneous lieutenant because he does not have enough credit.

Li Guang, Xu Sheng, and Zang Ba are other Simas, and they can have independent divisions.

Hua Mulan still commands Chu Tian's most trusted cavalry, and she actually has a lot of power.

Chu Tian canonized his official position, so that his subordinates could finally exercise their powers in the name of righteousness.

Zang Ba's original official position was to ride the captain, and his official position was arranged by Chutian to Mulan, and Zang Ba was also convinced, because Zang Ba was once defeated by Mulan.

Chu Tian can make him the Sima of other departments, which is already the importance of him.

There were also a few Taishan thieves, who were disrupted by Chutian, and then incorporated into various units as deputy generals.

Before the crusade against Dong Zhuo began, Du Wei and Sima were already not low official positions, and as for the lieutenant and Zhonglang general, they were middle and senior official positions in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, which were still rare at this time.

However, after Dong Zhuo held the Son of Heaven hostage, the official position was worthless, and captains, generals, and even princes were everywhere.

"Zhou Yafu guarded Ju County with 3,000 fine willow battalions and 5,000 foot archers. If the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army goes south, Zhou Yafu will take the lead in blocking the advance of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army. The deputy will be Yin Li. ”

Chutian planned to recruit 1,000 new soldiers of the Xiliu Battalion for Zhou Yafu to strengthen the strength of Zhou Yafu's troops.

The annexation of Ju County, Dong'an County, Dongguan County, and Jiqiu County, Chu Tianxin gained a large number of people, money and food, so he considered adding more soldiers to Zhou Yafu.

Zhou Yafu is good at defending, and Jucheng is defended by him, even if it is a hundred thousand Yellow Turban Army, it may not be able to be captured.

"Zang Ba originally had 3,000 foot archers, but the number of archers increased to 5,000, and he moved from Yangdu County to Dong'an County. Its deputy general Sun Guan guarded Dongguan County with 2,000 people. ”

Chutian allocated a total of 5,000 ordinary infantry archers to Zang Ba and Sun Guan to guard the two county towns, and they were horns with Zhou Yafu.

If the Yellow Turban Army wants to attack Xiacheng, it must first capture the three cities of Ju, Dongguan and Dong'an.

The three cities were the first line of defense built by Chutian.

The second line of defense consists of the three cities of Yangdu, Xueyue, and Langya.

"Bai Xueyue is the order of the Yangdu, Sun Kang and Wu Dun are the deputy generals, commanding 7,000 soldiers, guarding the capital of Yang and Xueyue City. Liu Sandao was the lieutenant of Kaiyang County, commanding 3,000 soldiers to guard Langya City. ”

Chutian built the first line of defense with 13,000 people, and 10,000 people built the second line of defense, focusing on defense.

The main force was stationed in Xiacheng and was personally commanded by Chu Tian and several generals.

The Mulan Department commanded 200 Iron Eagle Scouts and 4,000 cavalry.

Xue Rengui's department, commanding 200 Tang elite archers, 500 light cavalry, and a small number of heavy cavalry.

Li Guangbu, commanding 200 Western Han border archers, 500 light cavalry, and 3,000 crossbowmen.

Chutian personally managed 2,000 shooting battalions and 5,000 infantry. It is planned to recruit 1,000 new people to the shooting battalion.

The main force of Xia Cheng is about 16,000 people.

In addition to this, there is also an expanded sailor battalion.

According to Xu Sheng's request, Chutian planned to expand the sailor battalion from 500 to 2,000 people, and at the same time upgrade it to a fourth-level shipyard to produce warships.

These regular armies do not include ordinary city defense units and patrols that capture thieves.

With Chutian's territory and the current level of development of the territory, it is actually very difficult to feed 41,000 regular regiments, as well as a number of city defense troops and patrols.

There are also a large number of war horses to be raised, and a large number of weapons and armor to be replaced.

Probably after canonizing all the official positions and determining the deployment area of the Sima of each other department, Chu Tian can sit back and relax for the time being.

The Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army wanted to hit Xia City, and there were six cities in the north of Xia City to block it.

At this time, the roads of Langya Kingdom are not in all directions, and if you want to bypass the six cities in the north and attack Xia City, you may be pinned by the defenders of the six cities and cut off the grain route.

This is the importance of cities and fortresses, to hold back the enemy's advance with fortified cities.

Chutian judged that within a year and a half, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army would not be able to capture the six northern cities at all.

Chutian specially set up a banquet to entertain the heroes and announced their appointments, and everyone was very happy when they got the official positions.

At the celebration banquet, Mulan drank a few more glasses. However, Mulan's wine is very good, and she is not crazy about alcohol, but more taciturn.

In summer, it is cool and the opposite of Mulan, and after drinking, her face is hot and red to the root of her ears.

Zhou Yafu and Zang Ba were called back to participate in the celebration banquet.

Yin Li, Sun Kang, Wu Dun and several other Taishan thieves also participated in the feast. Compared to the others, this group of Tarzan thieves spoke more vulgarly and acted rudely, but they could liven up the atmosphere.

"I didn't expect that it was just a woman who beat me that day."

Wu Dun couldn't help but sigh when he saw Xia Liang, who defeated him with 3,000 recruits in Liangshan Town.

Outside the Lord's Mansion, it snowed heavily, while inside the Lord's Mansion there were more than ten historical heroes.

Even Du Fu was asked to come to the celebration banquet of the Lord's Mansion to witness the establishment of the first batch of civil ministers and military generals in the Langya Kingdom.

Chutian's team is mainly composed of heroes from various dynasties recruited by the recruitment order, followed by the Taishan thief force, and its lineup is so luxurious that it may not be comparable to the current Cao Cao.

The celebration lasted until late at night.

Many fierce generals were drunk and staggered, and Li Guang even lay on the ground holding the wine jar.

Even Mulan was lying on the wooden table.

Chu Tian was the lord, and every Wenchen military general toasted him in a round, and Chu Tian was directly unconscious.

The only people who were still alive were civil officials, their faces were hot, and everyone didn't dare to drink in the summer.

"It's a real headache...... Why did even Fang Xuanling and Sister Mulan fall ......"

Xia Liang saw that this group of men was so excited that they all fell down because they controlled Langya Country and could chase the Central Plains from now on, and they couldn't help but have a headache. This is probably the happiness of men.

She thought that Fang Xuanling, as a military advisor, would not be so reckless, but today Fang Xuanling seemed to have lost his temper.

"Someone."

In the summer, the cool summoned the personal guards of the lord's mansion.

The personal guards of the Lord's Mansion generally directly obeyed Chu Tian's orders or Xue Rengui's orders, but under the premise that Chu Tian was unconscious, they would also obey the orders of the more familiar summer cool.

"Take you back to their lodgings...... General Mulan stayed. ”

In the summer, Liang thought that Mulan was more special, so he didn't let the guards take it away.

So the guards of the lord's mansion carried Fang Xuanling, Xue Rengui, Li Guang and others away.

Fang Xuanling opened his eyes intentionally or unintentionally and glanced at it, and saw that someone was dealing with the aftermath, so he slept with confidence.

Summer Liang underestimated Fang Xuanling's IQ. Fang Xuanling's intelligence has now reached 95.

Now only Chu Tian and Hua Mulan who had fallen asleep in the lord's mansion remained, as well as the only awake summer cool.

In the summer, Liang had to carry Chutian and Hua Mulan to the bedroom in the back hall respectively.

"I should go in the direction of a general, it's really tiring......"

The summer who chose the direction of Wenchen was cool and panting.

Put Mulan on Chu Tian's bed so that they can take care of it together.

"Next ......"

In the summer, when the two of them were full of alcohol, they had to make a fire to keep warm.

It was snowing heavily outside the Lord's Palace, and it was now a cold winter moon.

……

The next day, when Chu Tian woke up, he had a splitting headache, he was drunk by more than a dozen subordinates, and he had completely forgotten what happened last night, and only remembered to hold a celebration banquet.

Chu Tian felt that his usual couch was a little crowded, and suddenly found that Hua Mulan, who was wearing civilian clothes, was sleeping on his bed, her delicate body curled up slightly.

No way......

Chu Tian had the impression that he hadn't done anything.

What shocked Chu Tian even more was that Kaiyang Ling, Shi Cao Shi, and Shi Xia Liang were lying on the edge of the bed, no more than three feet away from him, also unconscious, and his eyelashes trembled slightly with his breathing.

“……”

Chu Tian had to desperately recall what happened last night, and the result was ...... It's a blank slate.

Drunk and misguided.

Chutian vowed never to hold such a celebration banquet in the future, even if he became the pastor of Xuzhou.

As if he had done something wrong, Chu Tian was light and wanted to escape from this place. He also found that his clothes had been changed, and the smell of alcohol on his body was not so strong.

Xia Liang seemed to be awakened by Chu Tian's movements, yawned slightly, and rubbed his eyes: "Lord Lord, have you woken up?" ”

"Do you remember what happened last night?"

"Of course I do. Don't worry, you didn't do anything, and your subordinates only placed you here to take care of you and General Mulan. ”

"That's ......"

Chu Tian was not so embarrassed now.

"Please don't be reckless next time, you still have to go to Luoyang to discuss the crusade against the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army with Qingzhou Thorn History, Xuzhou Thorn History, Beihai Xiang, Chen Liutaishou and others."

Cool summer reminds Chutian of the itinerary.

Chu Tian remembered that this was indeed the case. In order to defeat the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, the various princes who received the imperial court order planned to negotiate in Luoyang - each county had a teleportation array to Luoyang.

The current Chutian is already a prince in a sense.

"After noon, get up and go to Luoyang."

Chu Tian thought that he could meet Cao Cao, Liu Dai, Kong Rong, Tao Qian and other princes in Luoyang, and he had some expectations, especially Cao Cao, an emperor-level hero, or a hero with monarch characteristics. So far, Chu Tian has seen Liu Bei, but he has not seen Cao Cao and Sun Jian.

Chutian also has a monarch characteristic, but unfortunately it did not play much of a role in the war in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

In the summer, it was cold and went to boil tea for Chu Tian, leaving Chu Tian alone in the room.

Hua Mulan was awakened by the movement of the two people, and opened her eyes dimly, only to find herself lying on Chu Tian's bed, her clothes had been changed, and the lord was standing by the bed, her body couldn't help but stiffen.

Chu Tian was afraid of scaring Mulan, so he pretended to be calm: "You listen to my explanation......"
