Chapter 39: Captain
Tang Yi and Tang Er and others have led more than 1,000 private soldiers of the Tang family to enter the Taishou Mansion and control all the family members of Liu Taishou.
Liu Taishou was also under the control of Tang Yun, wrote a letter of order with his own hands, and stamped the official seal with his own hands, appointing Tang Yun as the captain of Jinan County and commanding the soldiers and horses of the county.
The position of lieutenant is not low, and usually only a general who commands the soldiers and horses of a county can receive this honor.
The army establishment of the Han Dynasty was 2,000 people in a battalion, and it was calculated in multiples of two and five.
The most basic unit is the corps, that is, there is a corps commander for every five people.
Two Wu Wei, one for every ten people.
Five tithes are a team, and there is a team rate for every fifty people.
Two teams are one tun, and there is one tun commander for every 100 people.
Two tuns are a song, and there is a military marquis for every 200 people.
Two songs into one, one for every four hundred people.
Usually every five divisions are a battalion, that is, an independent combat unit, usually commanded by a general or a lieutenant.
Jinan County, as a state county, has a battalion of soldiers and horses, that is, 2,000 people, and the commander of the army is the captain of the county.
At the same time, as the captain of Jinan County, in addition to the first battalion of soldiers and horses in Dongpingling County, he also commanded a number of soldiers and horses in each county under his jurisdiction.
And the counties under the jurisdiction of Jinan County, each county also has a 400-person army and horses, and the commander of the army is the military Sima.
It's just that right now, coinciding with the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the county towns under the jurisdiction of Jinan County have been captured by the Yellow Turban Army, and those soldiers and horses must have been wiped out by the Yellow Turban Army.
In the lobby of the county guard's mansion, Tang Yun's henchmen, Tang Yi, Tang Er, Tang San, and Tang Si...... and Tang Thirty-six and the others, they have already arrived.
"Tang San, Tang Si, the two of you are responsible for staying in the county guard."
Tang Yun looked at Tang San and Tang Si and ordered, "Tang San is responsible for protecting Liu Taishou closely, and Tang Si is responsible for taking care of Liu Taishou's family. ”
He used the words "protection" and "care" to elongate his voice, and the meaning is self-evident.
"Whoa!"
Tang San and Tang Si bowed down to receive the order.
Tang Yun bowed slightly.
Over the years, the henchmen he has cultivated, namely Tang I, Tang II and Tang Thirty-six, a total of thirty-six people, all of whom are qualified military generals.
With them doing things for themselves and carrying out their own orders, Tang Yun can rest assured.
Liu Taishou's face was pale, and he didn't understand that he was being closely guarded, and his family was also controlled.
Tang Yun added: "Except for me coming in person, don't let anyone see Liu Taishou and Liu Taishou's family." ”
"Whoa!"
"Young master, rest assured!"
Tang San and Tang Si responded respectfully.
The two of them were also the first to follow Tang Yun, second only to Tang Yi and Tang Er.
Among them, Tang Yi and Tang Er were the two followers that Tang Yun selected for himself when he was three or four years old, and then cultivated them to become talents.
Tang San and Tang Si were the homeless people who were accepted, and most of the rest of Tang Wu, Tang Liu, Tang Qi and Tang Thirty-six were also the homeless people personally selected and accepted by Tang Yun.
On the contrary, the servants of the Tang family are in the minority.
Because most of the servants of the Tang family are young or middle-aged, there is a lack of people who are young, smart, and can be seen in Tang Yun's eyes, he cultivates his henchmen, but he has to cultivate them from an early age.
Next, Tang Yun led more than thirty henchmen except Tang San and Tang Si to the school field in the city.
He is now a lieutenant of Jinan County, so he naturally wants to take over the 2,000 soldiers and horses of that battalion in this county.
Except for the former captain Liu Zhuo, who was killed by him, and the dozens of soldiers, the 2,000 soldiers and horses of this battalion in Dongpingling County are still fully staffed, and there is no such thing as empty salaries.
……
……
Inside the school grounds.
Tang Yun gathered a battalion of 2,000 soldiers and horses, took out a letter of appointment written and stamped by Liu Taishou himself, and took up the post of captain.
At the same time, he ordered that Tang Wu, Tang Liu, Tang Qi, Tang Ba, Tang Jiu and other henchmen should go out and serve as military commanders and marquis in the army.
Among them, there are five military commanders, and each military commander has 400 people.
There are ten more military marquises, and each commander has 200 people.
Each of Tang Yun's henchmen is a qualified military general, and it is more than enough to serve as a military commander and a military marquis.
And the military horses and military marquis who were originally squeezed down by them were a little unconvinced, and the original subordinates of these people even had the intention of fighting for their old bosses.
For a time, the morale of the army was unstable.
Tang Yungao said coldly on the high platform of the school field: "If there are those who are not convinced, although you can challenge them, which one can win them, you can directly replace their position!" ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion among the 2,000 people in the school field, and many of them were eager to try.
If you can serve as a military commander and a military marquis, and command hundreds of people, for most soldiers, it can be said that you will reach the sky in one step! And those who were originally squeezed down wanted to take their positions back.
Tang Yun was expressionless.
No matter what kind of army it is, almost all of them believe in the respect of the strong.
His approach is simple, straightforward, and effective.
This battalion of soldiers and horses can be quickly tamed, and let Tang Wu and the others establish their prestige with their own force.
Tang Wu and the others, all of whom grew up with Tang Yun to read and practice martial arts, are all qualified generals with good martial arts, and seven or eight men are not close to each other, and it is more than enough to deal with these people.
If among these people, there were one or two generals with good martial arts, Tang Yun would be pleased.
However, next, an individual came to the stage to challenge, but they were all defeated by Tang Wu and Tang Liu and others one by one.
"Let's try it!"
The first to come to power was a tall and strong man, who was originally a horse archer in the army.
As a horse archer, a type of horse archery on horseback, he is also a skilled person with bows and horses, and his skills are stronger than ordinary soldiers.
However, after only a few rounds, this tall and strong man, and the big sword weapon he used, were picked up by Tang Wuyi's spear and lost on the spot.
Tang Wu and the others were all the same marksmanship as Tang Yun, and the weapons they used were all spears.
"I'll try it too!"
After the first strong man was defeated by Tang Wu, someone came to the stage again, but this time it was Tang Ba who challenged.
However, this person was also easily defeated by Tang Ba in a few rounds.
Next, some people came to the stage one after another, but none of them succeeded.
Fifteen people successfully took up the positions of five military commanders and ten military marquis.
Seeing that there was no unexpected talent harvest, Tang Yun was slightly disappointed, and nodded secretly.
These henchmen and subordinates of his are all qualified generals, and it is okay to command a battalion of soldiers and horses one by one and serve as captains. For the positions of military horses and military marquis, they are easy to capture.
And the reason why he took control of this battalion of soldiers and horses from Liu Taishou was to deal with the next Yellow Turban Rebellion!
Tang Yun didn't have the idea of running away directly like Liu Taishou.
Instead, he is ready to use this battalion of soldiers and horses, as well as more than 1,000 private soldiers of the Tang family, to fight a battle with the Yellow Turban Army in Jinan County!
