Liu Hou felt like Jiang Ziya in the god list, standing on the god platform and sealing the ministers. But the truth is that he sat on a dragon chair and was read by an attendant who was standing by, announcing the appointment of each person.

Liu Hou found out that the bad dishes were bad after he finished sealing the official, and it turned out that he forgot one person, and this person was Zhu Bao. Zhu Bao's Fourth Division was dismantled, and everyone had a division commander to do it, but he didn't. That's not good, people are so loyal, hard-working and resentful with them for so long, although the battle has not been fought much, but the work of protecting the logistics channel has been done very well, and there is no merit and hard work.

Back then, after Jiang Ziya sealed all the immortals, he also found that he had leaked himself, so he had no choice but to seal himself as Taishan Shi to dare to be. It's easy to do it if you leak it, it's a big deal to be wronged, but it's different if you miss others, and if you don't handle it well, there will be problems.

After thinking about it, there was really no place to place him, so I had to ask him if he wanted to be Yu Linlang, that is, let him be the captain of the personal guard, or the commander of the Xuchang City Garrison. This position is high enough, and it is higher than the commanders of several other divisions.

Xuchang is now the emperor's station, equivalent to the capital, although the capital has not been moved, but in the feudal society, where the emperor is the administrative center, there is no doubt. Then Zhu Bao's position is equivalent to the division commander of the Beijing garrison.

This made his status rise by several octaves at once, and he jumped from the commander of the reserve division with the lowest status to the commander of the capital garrison division with the highest status among several division commanders, which was obviously a bit unreasonable and unfair. Although the other teachers may not be envious and jealous, it is someone else's business whether others are jealous or not, and whether they are fair or unfair is another matter.

As far as Liu Hou's heart is concerned, he didn't want him to be the commander of the garrison division, not because he felt that Zhu Bao was not loyal enough, but because he originally wanted to serve as the division commander himself. He has always liked to be the commander of a unit at the same time, he used to be a regiment commander, and now he naturally wants to be promoted to division commander.

But he didn't expect that he would forget Zhu Bao's official position and have to reluctantly give up this position, which made Liu Hou feel a little reluctant. If you are reluctant, you can't help it, as a superior ~ person, you can't take away the rights of your subordinates at will, not to mention that Zhu Bao not only didn't make mistakes, but also made a lot of contributions in the later battles.

So, he had to find Zhu Bao and ask him if he wanted to be the commander of this garrison division. It can also be seen from this inquiry that Liu Hou was unhappy in his heart, and he didn't ask the parties at all in other official positions, but just discussed with a few strategists and then rewarded him.

Unexpectedly, the answer that Liu Hou waited for turned out to be "unwilling". Zhu Bao was very happy when he heard that he was the commander of the division at first, but later asked what this garrison division was doing, and he regretted it on the spot and said that he was unwilling.

He listened to Liu Hou's explanation and knew that this garrison was guarding Xuchang to protect the safety of the emperor and Xuchang City, so he felt that the emperor had fooled him. Because the emperor had promised him before that he would fight on the front line, and now he said that he would stay in the garrison, he sensed that the emperor was backtracking.

Liu Hou was speechless, it seems that this guy has not thought about the status of this garrison division at all, he may not have realized that this division is the head of the other divisions, and the gold content is quite high, and being the commander of this division is a matter of considerable status.

For him, the most important criterion for judging whether this army is good or not, whether it is worth waiting for, is whether there is a war to fight. Liu Hou was very comforted by his eagerness to fight, praised him verbally, and calmed his excited emotions.

Then, Liu Hou fooled him again and said that because he saw that he fought bravely some time ago, in order to praise him, he specially asked him to be the commander of the most elite division in the whole army. It's just that the most elite division, of course, is used to guard the front of the emperor, so they can only stay in Xuchang.

Zhu Bao said that he would rather not be the commander of the most elite division and go to the battlefield. Liu Hou felt very embarrassed, because there was really no place to place him now. Zhu Bao used a stalking stunt to pester Liu Hou and let him go to the battlefield, but Liu Hou had no choice but to tell him that he should discuss with other division commanders to see if anyone was willing to change with him.

A day later, Zhu Bao came to ask for a meeting, it turned out that he had asked all the division commanders, but no one wanted to change with him, everyone wanted to go to the front line to fight, and no one wanted to live in Xuchang to enjoy happiness. In no way, Zhu Bao ran back to grind Liu Hou.

Liu Hou thought about it for a while and said to him that there was basically no big battle to fight in the past six months, and he could stay in Xuchang for the time being, use this half year to train another army out, and when the time came, when there was a big battle, he would definitely let him go out to the front line to fight.

Zhu Bao thought that this method was feasible, and it could be regarded as a compromise method, so he agreed. In this way, Zhu Bao temporarily acted as the commander of the Xuchang garrison division, but he rarely cared about the affairs of this division, and the brigade commanders of this garrison division were also accustomed to asking the emperor directly for instructions and reporting to the emperor if there was anything, which meant that this garrison division was still in the hands of Liu Hou.

This is also something that all parties are happy to see. The reason why Zhu Bao didn't have time to pay attention to the matter of the garrison division was because he asked the little emperor for an extra division, erected a banner in Xuchang to recruit troops, and officially began to form the eighth division.

Because the Guansuo army was a cold weapon unit, or a half-cold and half-hot army, Liu Hou did not include him in the establishment of the Hong army. He is the son of Guan Gong, and he fought in Jingzhou, which can be regarded as the establishment of the Jingzhou army. Therefore, the division newly formed by Zhu Bao was organized into the eighth division in order.

Zhu Bao had been engaged in the work of training recruits for a long time, and he was very familiar with this matter, and Liu Hou saw that he was enthusiastic, and it was not easy to pour cold water on him, so after thinking about it, he felt that one more division should be able to afford it financially, so he agreed to give him the establishment of this division.

The reason why Liu Hou felt that he could afford it financially was related to a series of actions taken by the Shu army later. After Liu Hou settled down in Xuchang, he ordered Zhang Fei and Pang Tong to move north, all the way to the Tiger Prison Pass, and stationed outside the pass. The purpose was to prevent the Wei army from coming out of the Central Plains to be naughty again.

The Wei court moved to Chang'an, but the soldiers and horses did not withdraw directly to the west of Tongguan, but held the Tiger Pass. If the Shu army wants to march, it must first lay the Tiger Prison Pass, occupy Luoyang, and then continue to the west, hit the Hangu Pass, and finally hit the Tong Pass before entering the pass and marching to Chang'an.

These three levels are the world's largest fortresses, all of which have the terrain advantage of "one man is the pass, ten thousand people and more than one man", how many armies in history have returned in front of them, and how many heroes have sighed in front of them. Conquering these three levels is no easy task.

This is also the reason why Cao Pi went directly from Xuchang to Chang'an. He just wanted to use these three Xiongguan to block the Shu army and consume the living force of the Shu army, and he happened to recuperate in the pass, accumulate strength, and wait for the opportunity to come out again to dominate the Central Plains.
