Chapter 101: General Pingbei
When Zhao Yun came, Liu Xuan did not make special arrangements, but directly moved him into the forbidden army as an ordinary captain.
In fact, this is already a very high salary, Tai Shici and Ma Chao are now just a captain, and the captain is now also a mid-level military attaché, as long as he goes further, he is a general, Zhao Yun was originally just a cavalryman, even if he saved Gongsun Zhan, he just became closer, and he was not particularly promoted.
What Liu Xuan cares about is how Gongsun Chan should be arranged.
"You don't have to be too restrained!"
Liu Xuan met Gongsun Chan in the back garden, accompanied by Queen Cai Yan and the noble Diao Chan, and the presence of these two concubines also made this meeting not so nervous and formal, as if it was normal to chat with his subordinates, rather than talking about military affairs.
In addition to these people, Liu Bei, the Central Protector Army, Shang Shuxun, the general of Zhendong, Cao Cao, and Lu Bu, the general of Zhengxi, were all accompanied by him.
These people can be said to be the top figures among Liu Xuan's current cronies, they have given Liu Xuan a huge boost in both civil and military aspects, and at the same time calling these people together, it is not a meaning to give Gongsun Chan a dismount.
Liu Xuan is the Son of Heaven, but none of the previous dynasties and this court is the Son of Heaven alone! The factional forces in the court have never disappeared, and it is not necessarily the most powerful emperor every time, so after he rescued Gongsun Zhan, he cannot think that Gongsun Chan will die for the emperor.
There are many old ministers in the court, and there are even many people with full fame and status, if Gongsun Chan votes under those people, isn't it equivalent to asking for trouble for himself?
Liu Xuan rescued Gongsun Zhan, but in order to let him lead the troops, at that time, there would be another civil and military collusion, and the forces in the court would be even more chaotic - he could accept appropriate competition or division of forces in the court, but the army was absolutely in his own hands, so he spared no effort to win over the generals.
Today he wants to tell Gongsun Chan that the current emperor has real power and control over the court is absolutely first-class, no worse than any generation of famous monarchs in history (whether it is a virtuous emperor or a tyrant, no matter which one you want to do, it is necessary to have enough control over the court).
Gongsun Zhan took a look and immediately understood what the Son of Heaven meant, so even if Liu Xuan asked him not to be too restrained, he didn't dare to relax at all, but honestly didn't dare to go beyond the slightest, and when he spoke, he also considered and weighed again, for fear of saying the wrong thing.
Now he doesn't have to be at the beginning, at that time he had his own family background in Beiping, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, even in the face of Liu Yu, the imperial prince, he could refute his words in person without giving any face, but now he is just a defeated general who has no soldiers and no generals, and only takes his wife and children to escort him to Beijing.
Look at the person opposite, he is young--Liu Xuan is only twenty-six years old this year, his status is respected, and his subordinates are like fierce generals, and this broken Han River seems to have the possibility of regaining its old appearance under his hands.
If Gongsun Zhan was not optimistic about the continuation of the Han Dynasty before, after seeing the combat power of Yulin Qi and Liu Bei, which were not at all ordinary people could compete with, his thinking had completely changed.
Especially in the past few days by the Yellow River, he asked Liu Bei a lot about the imperial court. Although there were too many situations for Liu Bei to say to himself, he still vaguely understood a general idea.
For example・・・・・・ although Liu Bei's force is not bad, there are many generals who are stronger than him here in the imperial court, among which Lu Bu, who is known as the world's first fierce general, personally beheaded the Yellow Turban thief Dao Nanhua, and Nanhua ...... That's an immortal who really understands the immortal law. ..., Gongsun Chan didn't take these so-called immortals in his eyes before, but he had seen Zuo Ci and Liu Bei's methods, so he couldn't help but pay attention to it.
At the same time, when today's son himself is not under anyone, even Lu Bu is not today's opponent.
What kind of concept is this? This means that when the Son of Heaven's personal combat power is invincible in the world, who can compete with such a powerful force? That is to say, as long as no one can truly defeat the Son of Heaven, then the imperial court will be completely invincible.
Later, he asked about the current situation of the imperial court, and learned that Yongzhou had a bumper harvest for several consecutive years, and Liangzhou vigorously developed animal husbandry and war horse breeding......
As for the popularization of education and the like, Liu Bei didn't say anything more, but even if there was only these, the impact on Gongsun Zhan was enough.
Lin Lin always told him that the current court is no longer the court ten years ago when the eunuchs were in power, the emperor was mediocre, the government was chaotic, the finances collapsed, and even the government decree could not even get out of Beijing
Some of the things shown by the current court are not comparable even when the Han Dynasty was at its most prosperous, so what is presented in the eyes of Gongsun Chan is no longer the end of the dynasty, but a zhongxing posture.
"How long does it take for Bo to regain peace in this world?"
Gongsun Zhan, who asked Liu Xuan's words, was full of excitement, and he thought that this was the Son of Heaven who was going to make his own statement.
In fact, it is precisely like this, Liu Xuangong Sun Zan opened his mouth, as long as he answered satisfactorily, then he could seal his official position on the spot today and take office immediately.
Liu Xuan doesn't like procrastination, a thing that can be solved in half a day has to be dragged on for ten and a half days, which is too boring and tiresome.
Gongsun Zhan only felt uncomfortable everywhere on his body, and he didn't know how to put his hands, so he thought for a while before finally saying: "Your Majesty's generals are as strong as Uncle Huang...... Then the world can be determined in ten years!"
"Ten years!"
Liu Xuan nodded, and then did not evaluate whether Gongsun Chan was satisfied with his answer or not, but just left Gongsun Chan with a back, and said after a while: "I don't know if Bo still wants to know the northeast land?"
Gongsun Zhan was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what it meant this time? Could it be that the Son of Heaven wanted to test whether he still had the ambition to cut off? Just as he was about to answer that he didn't want to, he felt Liu Bei stabbing himself on the side, and then nodded slightly.
Although I don't know why Liu Bei reminded me like this, but thinking that Liu Bei had traveled thousands of miles to save himself from Beiping, it shouldn't hurt him, so he said: "I want to!"
"Just think about it!"
Liu Xuan's answer made Gongsun Chan breathe a sigh of relief.
It turned out that Liu Xuan wanted to test whether Gongsun Zhan still had ambition, if it was because he didn't even have any ambition in this battle with Yuan Shao, then it would not be suitable to continue to command the troops, even if he wanted to use it, it would be more to do some logistics in Beijing and something like that.
But now it seems that although there is a reason for Liu Bei's prompting, it can still be heard from Gongsun Zhan's tone of answer - he is unwilling!
Being defeated by Yuan Shao like this, how could the dignified White Horse General swallow this breath? If he just stood to death, since he didn't die in a big disaster, then if he didn't think about finding a way back, then he would probably not have the face to continue to deal with these people in the DPRK and China.
"Uncle will serve in the army in the future, so the position of Youzhou Mu can no longer sit down!"
Gongsun Zan was stunned for a moment, and then understood that this was the Son of Heaven who was going to seal his official position, and he saw that this meant that he wanted to seal the position of a general...... Without the name of the territory, it is just an ornament, and it has no practical meaning at all, but he still understands this point relatively well. ..., which is better, a false Youzhou pastor or a general with real power in hand, he knows without being reminded.
"But by His Majesty's orders!"
"Well・・・・・・ let's take the post of General Pingbei first, these days I will familiarize myself with the military affairs of the forbidden army with the imperial uncle, and if there is anything you don't understand, you can also ask the imperial uncle nearby!"
Turning around and nodding to Liu Bei: "I'm tired of Uncle Huang!"
"This is a matter for the ministers!"
After speaking, he led Gongsun Zan away, and only a group of Liu Xuan's cronies remained. As for the matter of cultivation... Although Liu Xuan did not give direct orders, Liu Bei knew how to do it, in fact, it can be known from Liu Xuan's previous orders.
Without saying a word, he directly let Zhao Yun enter the forbidden army to serve, and he had specifically mentioned this person before, so don't think about it, just teach what should be taught.
And Gongsun Zhan・・・・・・ said that he was familiar with it first, which proved that Liu Xuan was not ready to teach him the cultivation exercises directly, but he had to observe and observe first, and then make a decision according to the situation.
Naturally, there was nothing to say about the arrangement of the Son of Heaven, and after Gongsun Chan left, Lu Bu just said: "The general of a defeated army, why does Your Majesty attach so much importance to it?"
However, after Cao Cao thought about it, he guessed a little bit about what he deliberately said to him back then: "Your Majesty, is this preparing for the invasion of the Northeast in the future?"
Liu Xuan nodded, and directly admitted: "Gongsun Chan has been in the Northeast for a long time, and he is most familiar with the customs and customs of that area, plus Gongsun Chan himself is also quite powerful in cavalry tactics, so he can be regarded as a talent... ・・・”
The dignified White Horse General deserves such an evaluation in Liu Xuan's eyes, but none of the people present feel that it is inappropriate, and even think that Gongsun Chan can get such a sentence is already a matter of heaven.
Everyone accompanied Liu Xuan to take a turn in the garden again, and said a few trivial words by the way, most of which were Xun Zai's reports on the recent personnel changes.
If it is too detailed, there is no need to say much, but it just tells Liu Xuan how much of the current 'cronies of the Son of Heaven have covered the scope of his jurisdiction.'
Among them, Yongzhou is the place where the capital is located and Liu Xuan started again, and the Son of Heaven's control over this place has been the most stable, followed by the southeast region of Liangzhou and Yuzhou.
In comparison, Yanzhou, Sizhou and Xuzhou, which are almost completely accepted, have less control over them.
"I knew that it was better to let the Yellow Turban Thief cast lots for a while!"
However, since he has already taken it in his hand, there is no reason to throw it out again, Liu Xuan's request is to take it slowly, anyway, according to the current steps, even if it is consumed, those annoying guys can be consumed to death.
Compared with these things, the focus of the imperial court should have shifted, that is, the war with Yuan Shao that may break out soon.
