It was already cold and the weather was starting to get colder, but it didn't affect the excitement of the people on the streets. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although more than ten days have passed since the repulsion of the Caizhou army, people are still feeling happy and happy that they were spared in this war, and even the festive atmosphere that pervades the entire Gushi County has never subsided.
After all, the bloody sack and massacre of Gwangju after it was captured by the Yuan clan of Caizhou are still vivid, especially the gentry who fled from Gwangju, who had already described the tragic situation of Gwangju through the description of the entire Gushi City that kept the residents of Gushi City awake at night.
Now that everything has passed, the Gushi army has shown fierceness and tenacity to make the Gushi people proud, and everyone knows that the Caizhou army was repelled this time, and it may not be possible to come again in the future, they need to face the aggressive offensive of the Great Liang, and they need to ask for more blessings.
Jiang Feng's leg injury healed quickly, in addition to the rapid solidification and gathering of Yuan Li Xuanqi, it also helped a lot in the recovery of external injuries, so he basically returned to normal when walking.
On the field outside Dongyue Temple, a juggling stall has gained popularity.
A woman is stepping on a rope, two wooden poles are propped up, a red rope is across it, and a slender woman is performing on the red rope with a crossbar, sometimes shaky, sometimes falling backwards, sometimes squatting slightly, making all kinds of fancy moves, attracting the surrounding spectators to exclaim one after another.
Even Jiang Feng couldn't help but stand still and take a closer look.
There was also a man playing with the bowl next to him, probably thinking that the attention of the visitors was attracted by his own woman, so he put down the bowl with interest, picked up a small gong, and struck it with a hammer to attract more guests.
The vendors selling Hu Biscuits on the side couldn't help but stretch their necks to look at it, until the Hu Biscuits in the oven emitted a burnt smell, which caused him to exclaim and blame himself, and also made the surrounding spectators laugh.
The woman actually did a backflip on the rope, and the crossbar did not shake, and the slender foot stepped on the red rope was particularly light and agile, which made people can't help but follow the embroidered shoes and shake.
The red rope was also swaying, and there were a few seemingly thrilling swaying postures, which attracted a burst of sighs from the sidelines, and the copper coins thrown into the wooden basin suddenly increased by more than a dozen, making the gong man also smile.
Zhang Wanshan didn't expect the military commander to watch it with his feet, and he didn't want to leave, so he couldn't help scratching his head.
He didn't expect that the strict boss would like to watch this kind of juggling, the military meeting over there was about to be held, and Lord Cui had to discuss relevant matters with him in advance, so Zhang Wanshan specially called his boss in advance, and also caused the displeasure of the lady.
It's good to let it happen at this time, the boss actually stays here, and if you want to let the lady know, you can't scold yourself to death?
"My lord, it's almost, Lord Cui is still waiting for you. ”
"Well, I see. Jiang Feng also knew that now was not the time to relax, and there were countless complicated affairs waiting to be dealt with by himself, which was the sorrow of the superiors.
He has liked to watch this kind of juggling since he was a child, and when he was a child, he often had to watch it for a long time before he left, but later this kind of juggling, which was popular in the countryside, gradually disappeared, so in Gwangju, here, this kind of juggling can always evoke his memories.
Today is the Great Army Meeting.
It has been 18 days since the departure of the Caizhou army, and it has been 15 days since the first military meeting.
And even Qin Zaidao and Zhang Yue, who were still in bed and couldn't get up, were half-supported and half-stiffened, and Yang Kan gritted his teeth and walked by himself.
The hall has been conventionally formed into a council hall, and the seating arrangement has been adjusted.
Jiang Feng was in the center, and Cui Shang sat on the left side of Jiang Feng as the head of the army, and Chang Kun's identity was not easy to determine, so he could only sit vaguely on the right side as a guest secretary.
Next is the two rows of seats, Yang Kan and Qin Zaidao are divided into two ends of the seats, Zhang Yue, Ding Man, Huang Anjin, Ju Shen, Xu Ziqing, Ge Han, Li Tong and others are arranged in order according to the seats.
In terms of ranking, Cui Shang also took great pains, he knew very well that with the death of Gu Minghai and Guo Tai, this situation must face adjustments, and with the expansion of Gu Shijun in the future, this seat will still be adjusted.
However, every adjustment needs to take into account all aspects, not only to take into account the qualifications of the generals, but also to consider the position of the generals in the Gushi Army, and many other factors.
Jiang Feng also knows that once this seat is arranged, it will naturally form a psychological stereotype in the hearts of many people, but with the development of Gu Shijun, this order will face continuous adjustment, which will be a very difficult adjustment, but anyone must adapt, without adjustment, there will be no motivation to improve, even if it is himself.
Jiang Feng just glanced at Yang Kan, Qin Zaidao and Zhang Yue, but did not ask how the injuries of the three of them were, because he would look at them almost every day, and the injuries of the three of them were no longer serious, and the key was that it would take time to recuperate, but no one could help.
"Today's army meeting, Bai Ling, you first collect the situation in the past few days and tell you, so that everyone can know about our Gushi during this time, as well as the situation that happened in various places closely related to our Gushi, and also make suggestions for the next step of our Gushi Army in the future. ”
Cui Shang still held a thick stack of paper rolls in his hand, but in fact, he already knew these contents in his chest, and he didn't need to look at them at all.
"Let's talk about the situation on our side first. In accordance with the orders of the military commander, in the past half month, the list of the fallen soldiers and the soldiers who died during the previous siege of the city by ant thieves has been sorted out one by one, and all the circumstances have been clarified, and at the same time, the merits of all the soldiers in these two battles have been checked and verified one by one, and this work was basically completed yesterday, and some of them cannot be approved, according to the opinion of the military commander and the commander, the higher one will be ,......."
This is a major matter, it is related to the morale of the army, the dead, the disabled, and the meritorious and meritorious people, there must be a clear explanation, even if the preferential and reward standards have not yet been fully released, but at least you need to figure out the specific situation, prepare for the next step of meritorious service, and can also appease people's hearts.
Originally, the Gushi Army also had a regular system, but it was only in the face of such a fierce battle, and then it was approved in the original way, and I didn't know if it would be delayed until the Year of the Monkey, so Jiang Feng and Cui Shang also discussed, speeding up, and for some vague ones, it was high or low, and it could be regarded as an explanation to the soldiers.
Jiang Feng originally intended to take out this situation and let the generals discuss, but it is obvious that the generals have not yet adapted to Jiang Feng's style, since the coach has already determined the things, and they are all to boost morale, who will not say good?
The only thing that is worrying is that the Gu Shi Army can now afford the money, silver, and even land needed for this favor and reward, but this is not something that you will worry about in the future.
"The construction of the city defense system is still progressing in an orderly manner, but in view of the current shortage of materials in the army, only 3,000 people have been recruited at present, mainly to dredge and deepen and widen the moat, and according to the advice of the army commander, the moat needs to be expanded 500 steps to the west and east to prepare for the future movement of the city wall. ”
As soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused the generals to whisper.
Such a large-scale expansion of the city wall outward, is undoubtedly in preparation for the expansion of the county, but Gushi is just a county seat, this time the line will expand outward a thousand steps, equivalent to more than three miles, this is not too small for the county town of Gushi, it is a huge expansion, what is the intention?
Some well-informed generals had already learned some news from Jiang Feng's chats before, such as Ding Man and others.
They knew that Jiang Feng intended to re-establish Huzhou, and to take Gushi as the seat of Huzhou Prefecture, so the scale of the city where the state was located could not be similar to that of a county seat, and it was inevitable to expand the scale, and this was probably only the first step.
In the future, if the power of the Gushi Army expands, the Huzhou Prefecture will be further expanded, which is probably a condition for Jiang Feng to persuade Chen Wei and others.
It's just that Ding Man and others were excited by Jiang Feng's grand plan to reset Huzhou, but after they calmed down, they also understood that this idea might be difficult to realize.
Although the ant thieves have turned their main forces to the more prosperous Huoqiu, Anfeng, and Shouchun, there are still small groups of ant thieves operating in these two counties, making a large number of farmers who are afraid of ant thieves flee to Gushi's side.
Jiang Feng noticed the mixed expressions of surprise, excitement and expectation on the faces of the generals, and took the initiative to interject: "All of you here are the mainstays of my Gushi Army, and I don't need to hide it here, I do intend to promote the re-establishment of Huzhou, and bring the four counties of Yincheng, Gushi, Shengtang, and Huoshan into the jurisdiction of Huzhou. Li Gu and Pei Lin and other adults have revealed, but everyone also knows that at that time, our life and death were uncertain, and several adults probably just thought that I was a little too ambitious, and this idea was more like a castle in the air, but now, I believe that His Royal Highness King Liang and the adults of the Great Liang Political Hall and Chongzheng Yuan should realize that our Gushi's idea of resetting Huzhou is not wishful thinking, but has a realistic basis. ”
"Of course, at present, this is only a preliminary idea, to realize this idea of resetting Huzhou, there are still many things to do, such as urging the Liang to play Chang'an, to dredge Chang'an, to ask the imperial court to agree and issue an edict, and more importantly, we must have the strength to really control the territory of this Huzhou, this is fundamental!"
