Section 13 Prepare for a rainy day
Like Li Tong, several other people who returned from Gushi had already devoted themselves to recruiting and lobbying. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Jiang Feng's task to them is also very clear, that is, to do their best to recruit more skilled people to Gushi, and at the same time, to report the current situation of the Gushi Army and do a propaganda in Daliang, so as to expand the influence of the Gushi Army in Daliang to the greatest extent.
This kind of influence can also be imperceptibly infiltrated from low to high, and it may not be visible now, but with the passage of time, the high-level of the Great Liang will also subtly accept this impression, and gradually regard the Gushi Army as an increasingly important and reliable ally.
I have to admit that the resources of Daliang in this area are unparalleled, for decades from the Huangchao Rebellion, with the Tang Army, and then with the Huangchao Rebellion, and finally with the Great Jin, Taining Army, the Reform Army and later the Caizhou Army perennial battles, creating a large number of military talents in Daliang.
It can be said that in the star-studded Liang era, except for the Great Jin who could barely fight against the Great Liang, the other feudal domains only had the ability to parry and had no power to fight back.
Even now, when it is declining and conservative, the military resources of Daliang are still not comparable to other feudal lords, and if you take a handful of them in the territory of Daliang, you can catch a few characters who shine in the armies of other feudal lords.
Li Tong felt that even if he recruited Zhang Ting, Zhang Guozhi and Guo Yue back to Gushi, he would be able to successfully complete the task, not to mention that this was the beginning of his recruitment journey.
Compared with the higher level of contact with Li Tong, the targets targeted by several other people are more complex and diverse.
Xu Jian returned home and slept beautifully.
The home is simple, but it is also home.
Only the widowed mother and sister-in-law were at home, and the elder brother went out to sell cloth.
My brother has always been good to himself, although he is not very satisfied with himself wandering around, but after all, he is a fellow mother and has never said anything, but his sister-in-law often makes a face, but Xu Jian also knows that if he changes himself to such a little uncle, he is afraid that he will be full of complaints, and he doesn't mind.
Regarding the mission he came back this time, Xu Jian still had some doubts in his heart.
To be honest, when he went to Gushi, Xu Jian never felt that he would have any kind of creation.
In terms of martial arts, he is just in the pulse period, and almost everyone in the more than 30 people who went to Gushi is stronger than himself, in terms of qualifications, he has never worked in the Great Liang Army, let alone any experience in leading soldiers, he once thought that maybe he could mix a role such as a guard of the pro-guard team.
Unexpectedly, after arriving in Gushi, after he talked with the military commander once, this is what the military commander and everyone who came to Gushi in Bianliang have experienced, and his fate seems to have some deviations from others.
For example, he was not incorporated into the army, but remained in the scouts.
In the battle against the Caizhou Army, as a scout, his main duty was to wander in Gushi City and find clues about the enemy's situation, especially the enemy's scouts, and it was precisely because he found out that the master of the Yuan family had infiltrated Gushi City that he sent a signal, but the opponent was too strong, and even Lu Yingfeng was killed in the hands of the opponent, which made Xu Jian feel a little guilty in his heart.
Xu Jian didn't know if everyone among the few people he had come back all the way had been specially summoned and talked to by the military commander, but he felt that maybe the conversation between the military commander and himself might be different from others.
Because he had heard the conversations of his companions along the way, and their purpose was clear, to recruit veterans and officers, but he himself was not.
The task given to him by the military commander is to recruit all the people who can provide valuable information and clues for the Gushi Army, well, this range seems to be very wide, so that Xu Jian is a little at a loss when he hears the task, he doesn't know what this military commander wants him to do.
From his own experience in Bianliang City, to what he saw and heard as a ranger, to the current activities of his friends and partners who were similar to him, Xu Jian slowly knew the purpose of the military commander.
What you need to recruit is scouts, and there are fine works, especially fine works.
This task made Xu Jian feel both frightened and a little excited at the same time, because he liked this kind of life, adventure, and full of challenges.
The military commander always seemed so calm and breezy in his words, as if everything seemed so reasonable and natural in his mind.
The Gushi Army needed a group of scouts and meticulous work to collect intelligence on various forces that might endanger the development of the Gushi Army, with the focus on Shouzhou, Yingzhou, Nanyang, Ehuang, and, of course, Daliang.
The commander of the intelligence army who wants to collect the Great Liang explained that the Gushi Army needs to understand the changes in the attitude towards the Gushi Army within the Great Liang, understand who has a favorable impression of the Gushi Army, who is hostile to the Gushi Army, and what their situation is, so that the Gushi Army can do the work of these people according to local conditions, so as to resolve the hostility to the greatest extent and win more benefits for the Gushi Army.
Some words don't need to be too clear, Xu Jian is not a stupid person, let alone a foolish loyalist of Daliang.
Unlike others, Da Liang didn't bring Xu Jian much, on the contrary, it was precisely because he didn't have any chance that Xu Jian felt that he was so confused and in his twenties.
The name of the ranger sounds beautiful, but the sourness inside is only known to himself, the weak crown year has achieved nothing, the sword to go to the end of the world is just a beautiful description of the poets, to give yourself a solid career to show their strengths is serious, this is the dilemma that every ranger has to face in the end.
And now Gu Shijun seems to have given himself a chance to show his talents.
On the way back to Bianliang, Xu Jian has been thinking about his work tasks.
The military commander has given himself tasks that are far less clear than those of others, and are even rather vague, not aimed at specific people, not specific regions, or even specific things, and of course they have also delineated the two scopes of more urgent and long-term plans.
Nanyang, Caizhou and Daliang himself, this is the target direction that Xu Jian has set for his mission this time, and the people who want to set up and recruit people who can play a role in these three areas have already made some arrangements in his heart.
The ranger's friends are broad, Xu Jian is known for his boldness and sociability in Bianliang City, and this has brought him a lot of friends of all kinds, including both local Daliang, as well as those who came to Bianliang from other places to meet when they traveled, and those who met when they traveled to various places.
Many people are even staying in Bianliang now, and there are many people here who are happy to think about it, so maybe they can give it a try now.
Jiang Feng has always been suspicious of employing people, and for trustworthy people, let them do it after arranging it.
On the one hand, being able to go from Daliang to Gushi is itself a trust in himself and the Gushi Army, and on the other hand, Gushi and Daliang will be allies who support each other for a long time, so there is nothing else.
Although there were still quite a few things to do on Gushi's side, Jiang Feng couldn't wait.
He had to go to Nanyang.
According to the news fed back from various channels, Nanyang may make a decision in the near future on whether to launch an attack on Caizhou.
The battle of Daliang against Caizhou has also entered a critical stage, and the Tianxing Left Wing Army on the Eastern Front has crossed the Da Lishui under the leadership of Li Gu, and after several fierce battles, it has occupied the county seat of Lishui.
The Tianxing Right Wing Army fought fiercely in Xiangcheng under the leadership of Niu Deguang and the Caizhou Yuan Army who came to reinforce it, but it was obvious that the reinforcement Yuan Army could not withstand the attack of the Tianxing Right Wing Army, and it was only a matter of time before Xiangcheng fell.
At present, only Nanton is still firmly controlled by the Yuan family in the entire Nanchen Prefecture, but with the fall of Xiangcheng, Nanton cannot be preserved, at this time the Caizhou Yuan family has actually understood that it is inevitable that Nanchen Prefecture will change hands, and the Xiangcheng He family even transferred the property of the main personnel of the family to Xincai in advance.
The situation on the middle line is quite stable, Yuncheng due to the particularity of its location, has always been a fortified fortress built by Caizhou, and its defense system is no less than that of Ruyang, as long as Yuncheng is in, then the Liang army no matter which direction it enters Caizhou, it has to prevent the attack of the Yuan army of Yuncheng from the flank.
Relying on the persistence of Yuncheng, although the defense of the western front was very hard, and even lost the smelting furnace city and Xiping County, but under the pressure of the opponent's absolute superiority, the defense line of the Yuan army never collapsed, and firmly withstood the many attacks of the Liang army in Wufang.
Now everyone's eyes are on Nanyang.
Although the Caizhou army also deployed defenses in advance on the line of Rongshan Mountain, Wenchengzha, Ma'anshan, and Langling Mountain, everyone knew that as long as Nanyang sent troops, it was completely possible to send troops from Tongbai or Shenzhou to the north, and easily enter from the southwest hinterland of Caizhou, directly cut Caizhou in half with a knife, and directly announced the end of Caizhou.
It can be said that the current Caizhou army has done its best, and the whole line is tight, as long as anyone sticks a knife in its back, it will lead to the collapse of its situation.
Jiang Feng even considered whether he could assemble the Gushi army to attack Gwangju or praise him, but in the end he gave up this idea.
Gushi is located in the southeast corner, and it is of little significance to attack the southeast of Caizhou, and Caizhou can completely take a posture of ignoring it and let itself jump up and down, even if it temporarily gives up the new breath, praise and even Shangcai to himself.
This is the basic plate of the Yuan family in Caizhou, and they are not afraid of their temporary occupation at all, and they may even rely on the gentry soldiers to drag themselves here and cannot get out. (To be continued.) )
