Chapter 177: Erosion
"Since it is the order of the governor, we must do our best."
Tan Yingfeng's face was solemn, his hands were clenched into fists, and he said righteously.
Although Chen Wang is only the commander of Tongzhi, he is the commander of Han Zhongwei.
But Tan Yingfeng knew very well how many catties and taels he had as the commander of the guard, so he chose to follow his heart without any psychological burden.
There is only one head on his shoulder, he is too long, dare to fight with the deputy chief soldier of the town guard in Hanzhong Town?
What's more, there are several great gods above Chen Wang, Cao Wenzhao, the commander of the army, Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shaanxi, and Hong Chengchou, the governor of the three sides, and he can only lie on the ground and reply when they move out.
Chen Wang said that he was ordered by Sun Chuanting to rectify the guard, and it was definitely true to sort out military affairs.
The general general soldiers and deputy general soldiers are all suspended in the Governor's Mansion, but Chen Wang is suspended in the Hanzhong Guard, which is already a left proof.
You must know that although Han Zhongwei commanded Tongzhi and also served as a military position from the third grade, not many people from the third grade would take it seriously, and it could not compare with the gold content of the military position in the governor's mansion.
"The Hanzhong Mansion has been in turmoil for many years, and the power of the rogue has gradually grown, and the military and civilians in the house are all miserable, and they are deeply poisoned by the rogues."
"Although we have the intention to kill the thief, we are powerless in our hands, and many attempts have ended in failure."
Tan Yingfeng sighed and made a bitter hatred.
"Fortunately, Lord Chen later entered the mansion, first beheaded Zhang Yuan, and then defeated Wang Cheng, so that the crisis in Hanzhong Mansion was solved."
The corners of Chen Wang's mouth twitched involuntarily, he deserved to be the commander of the guard, although he couldn't fight, his face was not red and his heart was not beating when he talked about flattery, and his acting skills were also first-class.
If he didn't know about Tan Yingfeng, and he was no longer the first brother of officialdom, I am afraid that Tan Yingfeng's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance would be fooled.
This Tan Yingfeng was the commander, and the Communist Party brought a soldier to fight against the Liukou, and it was the last time he faced Zhang Yuan outside the city of Hanzhong.
At that time, one of the remaining commanders of the guard, Tongzhi, followed Zhou Yumao to fight, and the commander of the original leader was beheaded by Zhang Yuan in the battle of Buckwheat Mountain.
There are not a few people left who can lead the troops in Weizhong, and the prefect of Hanzhong Mansion is in a hurry, King Rui is also in Hanzhong City, and Tan Yingfeng has to lead the troops in person after being driven to the shelves.
Then that time, Zhang Yuan also engaged in an inside-outside combination, which almost made Tan Yingfeng lose his life.
After that battle, Tan Yingfeng's courage to muster up was gone, and then he began to be a shrinking turtle again.
Chen Wang put down the teacup and glanced at Tan Yingfeng, his face a little dark.
"I'm only here to rectify the ills in the office, and there is no need to say much about flattery."
Tan Yingfeng's face was slightly stiff, he saw Chen Wang's face gloomy for a moment, and then instantly understood that his horse's fart had slapped the horse's leg this time.
After the Battle of Hanzhong, Chen Wang did cut Zhang Yuan and became a general in Hanzhong.
But then he was immediately surrounded by Gao Yingxiang with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Xing'an City.
The county seat of Hanzhong Mansion was lost in Chen Wang's hands.
What else did you say to solve the crisis in Hanzhong Mansion, which pot is really not opened.
"The Governor has ordered me to clear the Tun to increase classes and train soldiers, can you hand over the relevant books and documents for a list?"
Chen Wang leaned back in his chair and said suddenly.
You need to be very careful when you speak and do things in the court, because basically they are people who can't afford to offend.
The open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to defend, those civil officials seem to be powerless, and they are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but in private they are all dark and ruthless.
But now in this Han Zhongwei, he can not follow most of the rules above the officialdom.
His identity and status are more than two or three levels under his hands.
During this time, Chen Wang also probably had an understanding of his identity and status, and also knew why his many promotions were so smooth.
After Cao Wenzhao went to Lingbao to meet Hong Chengchou, he actually became Hong Chengchou's descendant.
This era, home
The relationship between Ding and the chief general is like a clan.
As Cao Wenzhao's family, he was naturally divided into the sequence of descendants by Hong Chengchou.
Later, the supplies continued, so much armor and armament were given, and the military salary was not too short, and it was also for this reason.
Chen Wang originally thought that all the battalions had received similar supplies, but after seeing Zhou Yumao later, he realized how miserable the battalion with no identity and no background was.
More than a thousand regular soldiers could not muster six hundred collar cloth armor.
At the beginning of Chunhua, the logistics team sent by Hong Chengchou pulled almost 400 cloth armors for him.
Although he is above the court, he is still a small shrimp as the deputy chief soldier.
But in the acre of three points of land in Hanzhong Mansion, especially in Hanzhong Weizhong, he doesn't need to look at other people's faces, but needs others to figure out his thoughts.
"Yes, yes."
Tan Yingfeng nodded again and again, where did he dare to say half a word, and then turned his head to Wang Yuankang, who was sitting cautiously on the side, and ordered.
"Yuankang, why don't you go and get the document and give it to Master Chen to read."
Wang Yuankang, who heard the order, immediately got up, he saluted Chen Wang before exiting the hall, and then ran out quickly to get the booklet.
"How many regular troops are there in Weizhong now?"
Chen Wang's gaze stayed on Wang Yuankang's back for a moment, and then shifted to Tan Yingfeng's body.
"This ......"
Tan Yingfeng's face was slightly condensed, and he was a little distracted.
"I'm talking about how many people there are, not how many people are in the books."
The situation of eating empty salaries and drinking the blood of soldiers is very common among the battalion soldiers, but in fact, it is not too serious on the front line, after all, if you want to fight a war and suppress it, if you want to fight a war, you can't deduct too much, at least there must be some soldiers and family members under your hands.
But these inland guards have been living for a long time, they have not needed to fight for many years, and there are not even a few officials who patrol them, and the numbers in those books are just a joke.
"Yes, it should ......"
In late autumn in October, although it is located in the basin, the temperature in Hanzhong Province is not high.
In such weather, you can only feel a little warm when you wear cotton clothes.
Tan Yingfeng didn't wear cotton clothes, she was wearing ordinary silk clothes, but dense fine sweat oozed from her forehead.
Chen Wang looked at Tan Yingfeng, who was hesitant, and instantly understood what the situation was.
The current Tan Yingfeng's expression and performance are completely like unprepared students who are suddenly asked questions in class, and he still doesn't know that question.
Tan Yingfeng probably didn't manage military affairs at all, how do you know how many regular troops there are, I'm afraid I don't even know how many people are in the book.
"I think there are about two or three thousand people......
Tan Yingfeng raised his sleeve and wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, and said in a suspicious tone.
Chen Wang paused to ask questions and glanced at Tan Yingfeng again, but there was no anger in his heart.
In fact, it is far better to have a wine bag and rice bag as the commander of Han Zhongwei than to have a shrewd and capable person as the commander of Han Zhongwei.
Wine bags and rice bags are more convenient to overhead and do not require too much effort and hands.
Chen Wang nodded, which was considered to be the end of the topic of the number of people, and turned to ask another question.
"What is the division of affairs in the guard now?"
I can't get much information from Tan Yingfeng's mouth, so it's better to ask directly who is responsible for the affairs, and then go directly to inquire and visit.
Although there are not as many military households as civilian households, the affairs that need to be handled are not much less than those of the prefectures and counties.
When Hanzhong Mansion was turbulent for a long time, there were naturally more affairs to be dealt with.
Among the guards, there are many affairs, including tuntian, army inspection, camp drills, patrols, preparations, outposts, guards, garrisons, weapons and so on.
The inland garrison has been unbearable for a long time, and the battalion operation and garrison have long been stopped, and the military households are all peasants.
Because of the rogues, the battalion guards these can be regarded as picking up, but
It's all superficial.
If the camp drill is practiced, the gun formation will be practiced, and the queue will be over, and these arrangements were previously arranged by Zhou Yumao as a guerrilla in Hanzhong, and where to transfer them and where to send them were originally Zhou Yumao's power.
When Chen Wang took over as a general, the power that belonged to Zhou Yumao had actually belonged to him.
When he took office, Chen Wang naturally asked Zhou Yumao to briefly understand the current situation of Hanzhongwei, and after some profiles, he actually had a general outline of today's Hanzhongwei.
Seeing that Chen Wang did not continue to ask, but changed the question, Tan Yingfeng unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief
He still knows who is in charge of what, after all, many of them are arranged by him.
Tan Yingfeng smiled and pointed to a middle-aged man with a thin body, yellow face and eyebrows, and long hair who was sitting not far away.
"Camp drills and patrols are generally handled by Li Shiqi and Li Tongzhi."
When the middle-aged man saw Tan Yingfeng's introduction, he immediately got up and saluted again.
After getting Chen Wang's nod, he sat down cautiously again.
"Preparation, sentinel, and guard are basically the responsibility of Yang Mingcai and Yang Yanshi."
A young military attache who was also sitting opposite and was wearing a red arrow suit stood up and saluted, and Chen Wang also nodded in response.
"As for the internal affairs of the army, tuntian, and the armament guard, most of these are arranged by Wang Yuankang and Wang Yan, and the official has just ordered him to get the papers."
Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.
Before Tan Yingfeng's words fell, a rather hurried footsteps sounded outside the hall, and Wang Yuankang, who was wearing a scarlet military attache uniform, had already walked in.
Tan Yingfeng stood up in an instant, but just got up and stopped unconsciously, he peeked at Chen Wang, who was sitting next to him,
His behavior was a bit rude, and he was afraid that it would cause Chen Wang's displeasure, but Chen Wang still seemed to be calm and relaxed, and he didn't pay too much attention to his actions.
"Wang Yanshi came at the right time, you are responsible for the tuntian, weapons, and housekeeping."
Tan Yingfeng walked forward quickly, as if he had seen a savior, and directly took over the documents in Wang Yuankang's hand, and then pulled Wang Yuankang directly to the position where he was originally sitting.
Chen Wang didn't react much, but Wang Yuankang was taken aback by Tan Yingfeng, it was really Tan Yingfeng's eyes that were too wrong, and he took his hand as soon as he came.
Although he knew that Tan Yingfeng's orientation was normal, and he had three or four children under his knees, and he was definitely not as good as Long Yang, he still felt a little numb.
"Lord Chen wants to know how many regular soldiers there are in the army today, so you can answer Lord Chen's question."
Wang Yuankang's heart was relieved, just now Tan Yingfeng's eyes, he thought that Tan Yingfeng had awakened the habit of breaking sleeves.
As long as it's not a strange thing, he remembers the number of people in the regular army very clearly, whether it is the document or the reality, he knows it very well.
After all, he was in charge of internal affairs, and the number of people was small, and he had to recruit sergeants to fight in the past, and he also allocated money and silver to find someone to fill the loopholes.
"Just tell the truth about how many people there are, and don't say anything about the records in the book."
Chen Wang took the book that Tan Yingfeng had just put down, and most of the things written on the book were still details.
I can learn about the situation of most of the military households and craftsmen in Weizhong, as well as the number of fields, and the income and expenditure of last year, but the writing is quite brief, and I can only understand it briefly.
"For the time being, it is only a brief summary, and the specific documents are placed in the Department of Experiences of Weizhong."
In general, there are experience halls, townsman halls, martial arts schools, and official bureaus.
Experience the transfer of documents from the head of the department, and also store the booklets,
The town hall is in charge of the affairs of the guards, and the general military law and so on are all in charge of the town support.
There is also a prison in the Acropolis, which is also managed by the Pacification.
Wei Zhenfu is from the five products,
The grade is slightly lower than that of 1,000 households.
Wang Yuankang subconsciously glanced at Tan Yingfeng, who was sitting next to him, and he was a little hesitant in his heart.
However, Tan Yingfeng naturally did not give any response at this time, and directly avoided Wang Yuankang's sight and moved elsewhere.
Wang Yuankang was a little helpless, he understood Tan Yingfeng's temperament, Tan Yingfeng reacted like this, he was not surprised at all.
"Back to Lord Chen, now in Weizhong, there are actually 1,275 regular troops."
After Wang Yuankang pondered for a while, he still decided to tell the truth directly.
Under such circumstances, Chen Wang made it clear that he wanted to rectify the affairs of Weizhong, and he would inevitably investigate it thoroughly.
refused to say it, or reported the numbers randomly, and in the end, Chen Wang couldn't be found.
It is impossible for Tan Yingfeng to take the blame for him, and he will be responsible for losing his official position at that time.
"One thousand two hundred and seventy-five?"
Rao is Chen Wang had been mentally prepared, but when he heard this number, he still almost didn't stabilize.
There are many types of guards in the Ming Dynasty, and they are also of different sizes, some have only three thousand households below, and some have seven or even more than ten below.
However, generally speaking, according to the standard, there are 5,000 households under a guard, and there are about 1,200 people in a 1,000 households, and there are almost 6,000 people in a guard's full army.
Hanzhongwei is the most standard health office, with 5,000 households under its jurisdiction.
What Chen Wang got from Sun Chuanting's mouth before was that there were still three or four thousand people registered.
At that time, he estimated it, and then thought about the people who had seen the guards before, and after removing the indiscriminate number, he thought that there should be almost two thousand, four or five hundred people, so when he reported to Sun Chuanting, he said that there should be about two thousand people.
But now Wang Yuankang told him that there were only more than 1,200 soldiers in the entire Han Zhongwei?
There is a huge Han Zhongwei, and the number of regular troops in a thousand households can only be scraped together?!
