The discussion that began this night because of Xu Huabiao's heir, in the end, settled on the future of Luoyang City.

Kim Jong Kook signed a long-term verbal agreement with Xu Huabiao for the supply of military horses.

Salt, iron, and grain for military horses.

The specific operation must be Zheng Yilin's specific arrangement, but the achievement of the intention somewhat relieved everyone present.

Although Kim Jong Kook can't understand why Xu Huabiao has so many horses.

Luoyang, can you afford to raise so many cavalry?

And more importantly, what to raise? You don't fight!

If you use it to cultivate land, you might as well raise cattle!

It's just that Xu Huabiao didn't explain so much to Kim Jong Kook.

There are some things, this person who doesn't even want Xuzhou and wants to go back to the grassland, there is no need to understand.

Moreover, Xu Huabiao now has more things to do.

On the morning of the next day, in the main hall of the former Luoyang Taishou Mansion and the current Sizhou Thorn History Mansion, the entire civil and military administrative team of Luoyang gathered together.

Serious meeting, what Kim Jong Kook, Yoon Eun Hye, Lim Yoon Ah...... I didn't attend.

Because what I said today has nothing to do with them.

"So husband...... Well, the history of the thorn of the adult, in fact, is still too guarded? ”

"Xuchang won't send me a fortune, there is no difference between Taishou and Thorn History. I, a hussar general, a lieutenant, don't mean anything. ”

Xu Huabiao said with a smile to Zhou Jieqiong, who was unhappy.

Actually, there's no need for her to be upset, she should have performed very well last night...... Ahem.

"What we want to think about now is not these assassinations or the general's false name, but some practical things." Pei Zhuhyun, who was next to him, also nodded, "This time we went to the grassland, and we still heard some very meaningful information. ”

"What?" Lee Do-hee asked.

"Li Yanhao has basically sorted out the forces in the four states of Hebei, and has recently been in contact with the tribes on the grassland to establish good relations, and it seems that he is planning to stabilize the north and prepare for the southern expedition." Bae Zhuhyun glanced at Xu Huabiao and said.

"When I was in Xuchang, I also got the news that Li Yanhao has had frequent correspondence with people in Xuchang recently, and your judgment is very correct." Xu Huabiao nodded and affirmed Pei Zhuhyun.

"Thank you, Lord." Bae Zhuhyun nodded, "Li Xiuman persuaded Zhang Dongjian this time, although it helped him stabilize the rear a little, but it will definitely make Li Yanhao realize that he can't delay it anymore." Next, he will definitely step up his pace so that he can march south as soon as possible. Therefore, before that, we must establish a good response system, otherwise after Li Xiuman and Li Yanhao fight, we will not even be able to do it alone. ”

"It's impossible to be alone anymore. The main bus took a hostage to Li Xiuman! Lee Ji-eun interjected.

"That hostage, the lord himself said, he can recognize it or not. When necessary, it can be a vote for Li Yanhao. This matter has no real impact. Bae Joo-hyun shook her head.

“…… Joo-hyun, this is something that the lord can say, but it's not appropriate for you to say, right? Zheng Caiyan glanced at Xu Huabiao, and then said.

"As a strategist, you can't do this, so it's better not to do it." Bae Joo-hyun was still very serious, "So, before Li Yanhao officially prepares for the southern expedition, the first thing we have to do is to establish the cavalry team that the lord has always been thinking about." And this team can't be only a thousand people. ”

"How much does that cost? Three thousand? Five thousand? I'm afraid Luoyang can't afford it, right? "Lee Ji-eun is very sensitive to money.

"This ...... That's what we're going to talk about now! Bae Joo-hyun was slightly stuck, and then said.

“……”

"Well, Joo-hyun is right." Xu Huabiao turned to the end, "I thought about it all night last night...... Ahem, I really thought about it all night, what do you think I do? ”

Xu Huabiao was a little embarrassed.

Even more embarrassed than him was Zhou Jieqiong, whose face was already red next to him.

There was no way, almost everyone present glanced at Zhou Jieqiong when Xu Huabiao spoke just now.

"First of all." Xu Huabiao decided to continue to get down to business, "The affairs of the Dance and Music Yamen are on the right track, and the income is very stable. Whether it's a theater performance or an invited performance, it's done very well with this money, and I plan to devote all of it to the construction of this cavalry team. ”

"If the funds are stable, around April, a thousand cavalry will be in full gear." Zheng Caiyan, the middle of the Ministry of Works, nodded in agreement.

"Secondly, we need to have more planning for grain planting after the beginning of spring next year."

“…… What's planned? ”

"After more than ten years of chaos in the world, it is now time for people to settle their minds." Xu Huabiao shook his head, "Around Luoyang, there is water in the north and mountains in the south, and the east and west are all related to passes, and they belong to a very stable place, so we don't need to store too much grain in Luokou. Now that the granary is full, we need to consider diversification for our next grain planting. ”

“…… What do you mean, my lord? This time, even Lee Ji-eun was stunned.

Not to mention others.

"Soybeans, you can grow a little more." Xu Huabiao said his own arrangement, "Specific...... Well, in this way, Zhien, you give me last year's average grain yield per mu, as well as the current annual grain consumption in Luoyang, and I will calculate a number, this year's soybeans, planted according to that number. ”

"......" Li Ji-eun wanted to say that she didn't understand what the average yield per mu was, but she still chose to keep her mouth shut.

Since the lord has been talking for a while, he will ask later.

"In addition, it is necessary to start controlling the homestead in Luoyang City. I will be useful to tidy up all the vacant land that is still being abandoned, re-plan the residential areas of the people in the city, and strive to clear out a few relatively large vacant areas. Xu Huabiao continued, "No matter how rich a family wants to buy land and build a house, they need to be approved by the seal of the study, otherwise, even if Jieqiong's relatives want land, they can't do it." ”

“…… Be. Li Ji-eun still doesn't understand, but he still keeps his mouth shut.

"In addition, Luoyang's city guards have been reorganized." Xu Huabiao looked at Hyun Eun Jing and Park Hyo Min, who had been silent.

"My lord, the system of the commander you created is very useful." Park Hyo-min hurriedly interjected, "This time the battle outside the fortress, thanks to this system, our command is very effective, there is no need to reorganize, right?" ”

"The previous commandery system will be retained, but I'm going to implement a new system." Xu Huabiao smiled at Park Hyo-min and shook his head, "I'm going to push the military rank system and try it." ”

“…… What is that? Xian Enjing interjected a little curiously.

"Isn't there a situation where you don't have a thousand commanders killed on the battlefield this time, and then the centurions below don't know who to listen to, and other centurions come to command but can't command?"

“…… We didn't have a Centurion killed this time, but a Centurion did die. Park Ji-yeon interjected next to her, "There was indeed a time when this happened during a pursuit operation......

"The rank system is designed to solve this problem." Xu Huabiao nodded, "On the battlefield, those with high ranks, regardless of whether they are directly under the central government or not, are qualified to command people with low ranks to fight, and they can have opinions and report back afterwards, but they must be obeyed on the spot." ”

“…… It's not like we can't do that now......"

"But now who knows if you're higher in rank than others? Who must know you? Xu Huabiao spread his hands.

"What do you mean......, my lord?"

"We have to embroider the military rank on the clothes, so that at a glance, we can know who has a high rank and who has a low rank. The low listens to the high, at a glance. ”

“…… Lord, does this make sense? Li Duoxi couldn't hold back and came out.

Then, she looked at the few of them who were next to her.

The generals were all lost in thought.

It's been a while.

"The lord is wise." Xian Enjing spoke first.

"Well, I'll go back and formulate the rank level, and then it just so happens that the winter is a slack season, and the army is going to be trained, so you take this opportunity to implement the military rank system, including how to accumulate merit and promote the rank, you also think about it, and then give me some suggestions."

"Yes, my lord." Xian Enjing nodded.

"Well, all in all!" Xu Huabiao glanced at the people present, "The next two years are really the two years of life and death in Luoyang, Li Yanhao will not give us more time, we can't build Luoyang in these two years, then we can only wait for death, understand?" ”

"Yes, my lord!"
