Chapter 62: Talents
Guo Jun was stunned, how could he come up with the holy decree at this juncture, and immediately said, "Placing the incense case to receive the decree" followed the housekeeper out to put the incense case and received the holy decree, and he already knew what was going on in his heart, Guo Xing told himself when he left Beijing that he would transfer the two away at the end of the year, and he felt very uncomfortable.
Why is Guo Jun unhappy, because during this time, the power of these two people leading the cavalry has been revealed, sometimes leading 3,000, sometimes 5,000, sometimes 10,000 teams began to go out of the Han Pass to sweep the tribes on the edge of the prairie, burning, killing and looting, and the results were brilliant.
This is something that I didn't dare to imagine before, and countless cattle and sheep were captured, which not only solved the problem of grain in Yunzhou, but also trained the cavalry team, and now the 50,000 cavalry can fight with the grassland head-on no less than 40,000 horses.
Su Hu and Wang Han are indeed talents, but they can't keep them, why didn't they discover the talents of these two people before, they lost another ride, and their eyes on people are not as good as Guo Xing.
At the beginning, the emperor didn't choose himself as the successor, but he really chose the right one, and he was frustrated again. After receiving the order, he instructed his personal soldiers to "go and invite Su Hu, Wang Han and the two generals to come over" The personal soldiers took the order and left, Guo Jun returned to the hall and waited for the two.
Guo Jun was in the hall thinking about the successor after the two left, and he didn't have a clue for a long time, thinking about it, his eyes suddenly lit up, Guo Jun wanted to understand the problem, he was a little far away from the army, he used to go to the troops to inspect and mingle with the commanders and young people of each unit, and he knew the army well, but now he has not gone down to inspect for too long, so he has to increase the intensity of his inspection to discover some talents.
Recently, the cavalry did not attack, the weather changed greatly, the grass was yellow, and it was snowing, so the cavalry was resting in the barracks outside Tianyong City, after Guo Xing issued an order to make the exercises public, the army was definitely the most enthusiastic, everyone's enthusiasm for training was very high, and the small soldiers under it could also increase the survival rate by practicing more, and now when there is nothing to do, the army is in full swing of cultivation, not to mention that after a year of hard training, the soldier's physique and combat effectiveness have been greatly improved.
Seeing the effect, everyone's enthusiasm is even higher, Su Hu and Wang Han also have martial arts, of course, more advanced than Guo Xing's disclosure, the relationship between the two is good, Wang Han has nothing to do and go to Su Hu's house to eat and drink, the military camp is not allowed to drink, so it can only be trained, is training, the Metropolitan Governor's personal soldiers came, saying that the Metropolitan Governor recruited each other, and the two did not want to ride on horses and follow the soldiers to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
When I entered the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, I saw Metropolitan Governor Guo Jun sitting alone in the conference hall, looking at what the situation was thinking, the two of them saluted and worshipped and said, "The last general will meet the prince."
Guo Jun came back to his senses, looked at the two of them and said, "Suhu Wang Han receives the order", and when the two of them heard it, they quickly knelt down to accept the order.
"Chen Suhu, Chen Wang Han welcomes the holy decree," the two saluted and said.
I saw Guo Jun get up and pick up the holy decree and read, "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, recruit the Yunzhou cavalry to lead Su Hu, Wang Han entered Beijing to report on his work, and he admired this."
The two knelt down and kowtowed, and said together, "Minister, thank you."
Guo Jun nodded and said, "Two generals, please get up."
After the two got up, Guo Jun looked at the two and said, "When I came to Yunzhou, His Majesty said that the two generals would be transferred to Beijing at the end of the year, but I didn't expect time to pass so fast, and it will be the end of the year in a blink of an eye."
I heard Guo Jun say again, "The two of you will have another appointment when you enter Beijing this time, but no matter where you go, you have to mix it up, and all of us from Yunzhou are good."
Su Hu and Wang Han said, "Please rest assured, I will not be ashamed."
"This time into Beijing, the two of you will each bring 1,000 cavalry, and escort all the prisoners, except women, into Beijing" Guo Jun directly gave an order.
Su Hu Wang Han said in unison, "The last general will obey the order"
Guo Jun nodded and said, "You go down and prepare, settle your family, the New Year may be over in the capital, and you will leave in five days."
"Yes," the two saluted, and left.
Wang Han's family members who have nothing to settle are no longer here, Su Hu has been at home with his mother-in-law these days, since Su Hu was awarded the title of baron and the reward of the imperial court, the life of the family has been much better. Su Hu's wife is really good, and she knows that everything her man's hard work has been earned in exchange for her life.
Since the two got married, there has been no complaint, diligent and thrifty, Su Hu is obedient, and gave birth to a son and a daughter to Su Hu, knowing that Su Hu is going to enter Beijing, he prepared a lot of salutes, Su Hu looked at it and said, "Lady, this time in Beijing, it is estimated that the Chinese New Year will not come back, Your Majesty will have another appointment for me and Wang Han"
Mrs. Su Hu said, "The husband should cherish the relationship with His Majesty, and His Majesty will not be thin with us"
Su Hu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty is a wise gentleman, and he takes good care of the people who have followed him."
Five days passed in a blink of an eye, the two were reluctant to separate, these few days of military affairs were prepared by Wang Han, intending to let their husband and wife stay longer, after the two converged, they met Guo Jun, led 2,000 cavalry, escorted more than 30,000 prisoners on the road.
Recently, the cabinet and the eight departments of the scholars are very busy, the two-year work plan of the governor's office has been played, handed over to the cabinet for review, this time it is not sloppy, just like the governor of Qingzhou last time was reprimanded by Guo Xing after losing his temper and returning to the states, he immediately called all the county governors of the following prefectures and counties, and everyone discussed together, and the goal was to decompose in detail.
The following prefectures and counties did not dare to be sloppy, one by one the arguments, it took nearly a month to reluctantly do it, they all felt very tired, and those who could be the rulers of a continent were not simple people, and after the completion of the banquet, they set up a banquet, and said at the banquet Ladies and gentlemen, don't blame the governor for persecuting everyone, you must know that since the work plan was proposed, five governors have been dismissed, and the household department has been divided into three, everyone is afraid, now the saint and the cabinet are supervising together, who dares to slack off, this governor analyzes that the imperial court will send inspectors, and everyone must be careful to inspect all places, and don't make any actions that disturb the people, otherwise no one will be able to save you at that time."
Everyone was frightened by the governor's appearance this time, and when they heard that five governors had been removed and the household department was split, they knew that the imperial court had moved their true character this time, and they didn't dare to be careless, and they couldn't go back and vigorously rectify it.
The governors of Yizhou and Lanzhou entered Beijing with a nervous mood, and they were uneasy when they received the holy decree, and they repeatedly wondered why they had not made any big mistakes, and why they suddenly issued an order to call themselves into Beijing, until they came to the capital and asked their friends who did not know what was going on, only that the emperor found the holy decree directly issued by the cabinet, and did not receive the emperor's will to receive the emperor after going to the capital for the record, and the two were nervous.
On this day, Emperor Guo Xing said to Zhou Quan when he was in the imperial garden: "You send someone to call Zhou Tai" Zhou Quan responded with a "yes" and went down to arrange, Guo Xing continued to walk in the garden, while thinking about the future strategic arrangement, this work plan is very critical, as long as the officials go through this exercise, then the future will be more and more smooth, and military reform will be put on the agenda.
Just thinking about it, Zhou Quan came and said, "Your Majesty, General Zhou Tai is here."
"Oh, please come here," Guo Xing said.
After a while, I saw Zhou Tai coming, and he bowed and said, "Minister Zhou Tai has seen Your Majesty"
Guo Xing said, "Get up," and after speaking, he helped Zhou Tai up, and the two walked in the imperial garden.
Guo Xing said, "Su Hu and Wang Han are about to arrive in Beijing, so let's get together then."
Zhou Tai knew Guo Xing's temper and said, "The minister also misses them, but I don't know if their alcohol has risen."
Guo Xing smiled and said, "It's okay, just let them get drunk when the time comes" After speaking, he walked a few steps.
Guo Xing continued, "Speaking of which, I still wronged you, you are a general, but you were trapped in the capital by me, don't blame me" For Zhou Tai, Guo Xing still felt guilty in his heart.
Zhou Tai said, "The minister is not to blame, in the heart of the minister, His Majesty's comfort is above all else" Zhou Tai said categorically, Guo Xing was very satisfied with Zhou Tai's attitude.
Guo Xing nodded and said, "Only if you control the capital, can I feel at ease."
Guo Xing walked and suddenly said, "I miss the days of the bloody battle" Zhou Tai also looked nostalgic and did not speak.
I heard Guo Xing say, "The two of them came to Beijing this time, and they also escorted 30,000 grassland prisoners, and you will be placed outside the city at that time."
Zhou Tai said "yes" The two of them were talking about the things in the capital while walking, and after looking at the sky, Zhou Tai said goodbye, Guo Xing did not stay, and the limited rules must be observed.
At the beginning of December, Su Hu Wang Han and the two escorted 30,000 grassland captives to the capital, Zhou Tai had already made preparations and set up a large camp outside the city.
Zhou Tai said to the two, "Don't drink it today, it is estimated that Your Majesty will summon you tomorrow, and Your Majesty will also have a good drink for the four of us at that time" The two also agreed, and had a good rest today, and the next morning the end of the dynasty Guo Xing asked Zhou Quan to send someone to call Zhou Tai, Suhu, Wang Han, and the three of them, and at the same time put hot pot, barbecue, and wine in the imperial garden.
Guo Xing changed into civilian clothes, and after a while, Zhou Quan came to report and said, "Your Majesty, Zhou Tai, Su Hu, and Wang Han are here."
Guo Xing said, "Bring them over", and the three of them came over to pay homage to Guo Xing.
Guo Xing helped them up and beat Su Hu, and Wang Han punched the two and said, "Zhou Taizhen often sees him, don't say it, you two are not thin, you are in good health."
Su Hu and Wang Han said, "Your Majesty is worried."
"Okay, come to me, it's not the upper dynasty now, let's have a good drink today, don't care about the rest", Guo Xing said directly.
sat down together, the four of them let go of the amount of alcohol and drank it, and finally they all got drunk, Su Hu and Wang Han were sent by Zhou Quan to the post station to rest, Zhou Tai sent people to the Guogong Mansion, and Guo Xing was also helped by the two to rest.
