Two hundred and nine Liu Bei's strength has doubled
Soon, the imperial court issued an order.
In addition to Zhang Wen becoming the commander of the crusade against Liangzhou in the name of the general of the cavalry, several military personnel were arranged to assist him, among them, the imperial court worshiped Dong Zhuo as the general of the captives, Zhou Shen as the general of Dangkou, and Liu Bei as the captain of the cavalry.
Generals such as General Po and General Dang Kou belong to miscellaneous generals at this time, and they are not permanent, and they are generally temporarily set up when there is a military situation, and they are withdrawn when the matter is completed, and the general number is not retained.
The cavalry commander was in charge of the cavalry, the rank of general, the same rank as the captain, there was no fixed number, and it was nominally under the management of Guangluxun, but in fact it was generally held by people close to the emperor who trusted him.
When the news of Liu Bei's appointment to this position came out, the reaction of the court was still relatively large.
Especially for those who follow him, it is a mixed blessing.
The good news is that Liu Bei's status is rising, and his participation in the battle against thieves as a cavalry lieutenant obviously means that he has gained the trust of the emperor, and the emperor has expectations for Liu Bei.
The worry is why Liu Bei is going to the battlefield again?
Can't you settle down and study well, and then inherit the inheritance of "Zuo's Spring and Autumn", and finally take us to soar together?
Obviously, as long as he is honestly promoted in Shangshutai, he is under the emperor's nose, and then he can start a sect after a few years of academic success, and then take over the Spring and Autumn inheritance of the Zuo family from Lu Zhi.
When the time comes, Liu Bei will be his own university inquirer, cultivate students in a safe place honestly, and push his reputation to a new level, in order to become the future head of the ancient literature school, isn't this a good route?
Previously, public opinion generally believed that the emperor put Liu Bei in Shangshutai for promotion because he attached importance to Liu Bei's performance of caring for Liu Bei, and wanted to carefully cultivate Liu Bei's performance, so he let him exercise his ability in Shangshutai.
This can not only allow Liu Bei to exercise his ability, but also relatively safe, and Liu Bei can take the route of the Three Princes and Nine Qings in the future.
is also the inheritor of the classics, and he is also a high-ranking official of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries, so it is not difficult to take this opportunity to recruit the protégés and old officials, cultivate the power of the Liu family, and then cultivate their sons and grandsons, so that they can easily enter the career and become high-ranking officials.
If Liu Bei's life expectancy is longer, living to be sixty or seventy years old, it is not impossible to see the Liu family of Zhuo County, Zhuo County, Zhuo County, create the great cause of the three worlds and three princes in his lifetime!
The third and third Gongzhuo County Liu!
What a majesty!
A family prospers because of the appearance of a person, such a thing has appeared many times in the past, and many families around Liu Bei are looking forward to it.
It is better to engage in political struggle in Luoyang than to go to the battlefield to fight bloodily, but Liu Bei himself does not seem to be a stable character, and it is not enough to go to the battlefield in Hebei once, but also to go to the battlefield in Liangzhou.
It's dangerous to go to war!
But there is no way, Liu Bei's personal will is not something that everyone can control, everyone can only accept the fact that Liu Bei is going to go to the battlefield again, and then try to do everything possible to protect Liu Bei's safety.
Compared with the last time, this time, Liu Bei can mobilize more resources.
This time, the forces surrounding him can be roughly divided into three systems.
One is the professional military system, the other is the general affairs department system, and the other is the interpersonal communication system.
The professional military system is represented by Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahoudun, Dong Huang and others who are studying and training in the army, as well as some people such as Zhao Zhao, Liu Yong, and Liu Sheng, who are currently following Lu Zhi in Jizhou.
They are Liu Bei's specially trained military team, and they have the closest relationship with him to learn professional military skills in the professional Han army, and no matter what happens in the future, they are the decisive team that Liu Bei relies on, and they can play a role in turning things around.
Needless to say, the system of the Ministry of General Affairs was specially trained by him to be used as his own administrative team, and in the future, whether it is in the imperial court or in the ancient literature school to fight for power and profit, this system is a very important existence.
It is not enough to have a military team, but also to have a sufficiently powerful administrative team, and a perfect political organization needs to be able to use literature and force, but it is not feasible to have strong force.
Therefore, Liu Bei took advantage of the convenience of the ancient literature school to select outstanding scholars who needed help from the ancient literature school to enter the general affairs department, and bought people's hearts with sufficient benefits and perfect rules, even if they could not all be included in his own starting group, at least they could leave a considerable part of people's hearts.
These two systems are Liu Bei's core systems, his core strength, and the existence that can use his will as the supreme guiding will.
As for the third interpersonal communication system, it is mainly composed of some official figures that Liu Bei has befriended or a large family with great power, such as Cao Cao, such as Yuan Shao, such as Zheng Xuan, such as Yuan Kui and Xun Shuang, as well as Zhang Miao and others.
These people themselves are a faction of their own, and they are not dominated by Liu Bei's will for the time being, but for some reason, so they can provide Liu Bei with some extra help if necessary.
Among these people, only Cao Cao and the Cao family behind him are more deeply bound to Liu Bei because of the future of their descendants, and they are close to the state dominated by him.
The other official figures and big families all had friendly relations with Liu Bei, nothing more.
After calculating the power he can currently control, Liu Bei is more satisfied.
At present, the power he can control has only been a few months compared to the period of the Taiping Dao Rebellion, but it has more than doubled, and his constant tossing and turning, jumping up and down, has indeed had a great effect.
Therefore, this expedition is mainly based on the military system and the general affairs system, and the Cao family to which Cao Cao belongs can provide him with special help because of its special relationship with the commander Zhang Wen.
And this special help is what Cao Cao is very willing to give.
Before the expedition, Cao Cao took Liu Bei to visit Zhang Wen in person, and Zhang Wen personally went out to greet Cao Cao, with a very affectionate attitude, and was also very friendly to Liu Bei by the way.
In this operation, Liu Bei commanded the cavalry as a cavalry captain, and according to the sequence, it was directly under Zhang Wen's command, and the general Zhou Shen and the general Dong Zhuo each led a group of men and horses, which were not directly under Zhang Wen's headquarters.
So Cao Cao took Liu Bei to visit Zhang Wen, meaning nothing more than hoping that Zhang Wen could take care of Liu Bei to some extent, if he was hated by his boss on the battlefield, it would be a fatal thing.
Moreover, the relationship between Zhang Wen and the eunuchs in the palace is relatively close, and the relationship between Liu Bei and the eunuchs is a bit delicate, so the Cao family can't accept this result, so he specially sent someone to explain to Zhang Wen.
For Cao Teng's sake, don't embarrass Liu Bei.
In fact, when Zhang Wen saw Cao Cao taking Liu Bei to the door, he felt a little helpless.
Not to mention the Cao family, who promoted himself, there was also news from the eunuch, saying that he hoped he would take care of Liu Bei a little, and said that this was the emperor's intention, and hoped that Zhang Wen would not be mistaken.
So Jin Gui, what kind of battle are you fighting?
Zhang Wen was somewhat unclear about Liu Bei's intention to insist on participating in the war.
The rebels in Liangzhou will not look at your identity and not fight, the more noble your status, the happier they are, and they will definitely work hard to deal with you.
It's very difficult for me to deal with the rebels while taking care of Liu Bei.
The only thing that can give him a little comfort is that Liu Bei seems to be a person who knows soldiers, he is Lu Zhi's high-ranking disciple, he has made military merits on the battlefield in Hebei, and he has the title of military merit, so he should not be a simple gold-plated parallel goods.
Zhang Wen made up his mind, and then tried to let Liu Bei stay in the army as much as possible, and use him as a military staff officer or something, so as not to let him really go to the battlefield to lead the troops to fight, saving a lot of incidents.
If he wants military merits, then give him some military merits when the military merits are settled, isn't this up to him?
