Chapter 674: The Veteran's Fate Is Important

After Dong Huang was sent out by Liu Jian, Liu Jian found Lu Bu again.

At this time, LΓΌ Bu already knew that Liu Jian had sent Zhang Liao to Bingzhou to take charge of the local Xiongnu rebels.

To be honest, Lu Bu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, after all, he felt that this kind of thing should actually be handled by himself.

He was the number one figure among the generals in Bingzhou, and it was a matter of hand-to-hand capture to recruit athletes to conquer the Xiongnu in Bingzhou.

Shouldn't he be used as a pilot at this moment?

After seeing Lu Bu, Liu Jian asked directly: "Fengxian, is it because I sent Wenyuan to Bingzhou, so you are a little dissatisfied in your heart?" ”

When Lu Bu heard this, he was directly startled, and he hurriedly said, "How dare Bu resent the prime minister? The prime minister is the person at the helm of a country, for the sake of the country, there are naturally the prime minister's own considerations, how dare you speculate about the prime minister's intentions? ”

I saw Liu Jian smile and said: "Fengxian, if you have anything in your heart, you can tell me directly, you don't have to swallow and spit out." ”

Lu Bu saw that Liu Jian was very easy-going, so he immediately turned his heart and said: "I really can't hide anything from the prime minister!" The last general thinks that he is famous in Bingzhou, and the athletes in Bingzhou all know the name of Lu Bu, and the people of the Xiongnu tribes, Bu also fought with it more in the past, and when it comes to the experience of the Xiongnu, there is no one in the world who can compare with me. ”

"Why didn't the prime minister hand over the matter of counterinsurgency and recruitment of athletes to Lu Bu? The last general is confident that he will live up to the prime minister's entrustment. ”

In fact, there is nothing wrong with what Lu Bu said.

But Liu Jian now wants to cultivate Zhang Liao well, so he handed over the task to Zhang Liao this time.

Now that he is the prime minister of a country, for the generals under him, in addition to ability, he naturally has to do more balance, more appeasement, and different training.

Especially for someone like Lu Bu who has just defected, Liu Jian wants to give the other party hope...... He wants to cultivate Zhang Liao, but at the same time, he can't let Lu Bu feel bad about himself.

"Fengxian, I know what you said is right, with Linglu Fengxian's prestige in Bingzhou, this time I sent Wen Yuan to carry out the mission, if it is replaced by you, it will definitely be captured."

"But I didn't send you Lu Feng first, don't you know what the meaning is?"

Lu Bu shook his head puzzled: "Bu is dull and can't understand the prime minister's deep meaning. ”

Liu Jian said: "Fengxian, are you willing to let yourself be a general of a state?" You Lu Fengxian is a great general, your prestige in Bingzhou has reached the extreme, I sent you to Bingzhou, even if you can recruit more generals, even if you can defeat the Hun rebels, to be honest, there will be no growth for you. ”

"You Lu Bu is a pillar of a country in my heart, and you want to grow into a good general in the world, not just limited to the land of annexing states."

"Bingzhou is not suitable for you, only a character like Zhang Wenyuan can exercise his ability when he goes to Bingzhou, and there is no room for you to exercise first."

When Lu Bu heard this, he seemed to have some understanding.

Liu Jianji said: "You, Lu Fengxian is in Chang'an, and you have to cooperate with me to sit and watch the situation in the world!" ”

"There are many places where the Han Dynasty needs to fight, and there are many places that need to make contributions, the Western Regions and Liangzhou, Yuan Shao in the south, Cao Cao in Jiangdong, Yuan Yi in Yizhou, and those who have hidden evil intentions in local states and counties, these are the tumors of my Han Dynasty, you Lu Fengxian is a good general in the world, you should focus on these places!"

"If I send you to that little riot in Bingzhou, wouldn't it be a knife to cut chickens?"

"Fengxian, you have to have a clear understanding of yourself."

When Lu Bu heard this, he was immediately moved.

He immediately knelt down on one knee to Liu Jian and said: "The last general is short-sighted, and he has never guessed the deep meaning of the prime minister, which is really dull!" ”

Liu Jian personally stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Lu Bu up from the ground.

"You don't have to be like this, I have a lot of expectations for you! That's why I deliberately left you in Chang'an! ”

"The Xiongnu in Bingzhou, the main force in the past has been defeated for me, and now they are rebelling again, and it is just a disease of scabies, there are Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Liao, which is enough to be determined!"

"But there are more bones than the Bingzhou Dynasty, and the Han Dynasty is more, and you can't help me!"

"Fengxian, do you know why I named you the general of Zhengxi?"

"The position of the four towns and the four signs, waiting for leisure is not lighter than others, do you know the meaning of this?"

Lu Bu actually has some enlightenment in his heart,

"Prime Minister Mo doesn't want Bu to assist Prime Minister in pacifying Liangzhou in the Western Regions?"

Liu Jian nodded and said: "When King Hongnong was in power, he and Dong Taifu jointly formulated a plan to conquer Liangzhou in the west and pacify the Western Regions. ”

"If my Han wants to be strong, I must make Liangzhou stable, and after settling Liangzhou, I must make the countries of the Western Regions submit and become our vassals completely...... Or merge into our Han Dynasty, so that our Han Dynasty has enough geographical depth in the west, so that the Han Dynasty will truly dominate the world. ”

"The countries of the Western Regions further west are more powerful than the Xiongnu and Xianbei, our generation, I am afraid we can't conquer them, but at least in our generation, to communicate with each other, export the culture of our Han Dynasty to other places, so that they all know the strength of our Han Dynasty."

"Fengxian, this task is arduous, and it is definitely not something that I can do alone, nor can you and I do it, but you and I can't do it without it!"

Liu Jian's words can be described as sincere, and Lu Bu was really moved when he heard it in his heart.

Of course, Liu Jian's words were not completely fooling Lu Bu.

For him, Zhang Liao alone is indeed enough for the affairs of Bingzhou, and a fierce general like Lu Bu is still used elsewhere.

Of course, there is another reason for not letting Lu Bu go to Bingzhou, that is, Liu Jian wants to slowly use Zhang Liao to replace Lu Bu's position as a "flying general" in Bingzhou.

Lu Bu has been a god in the land of Bingzhou for a long time, and it is time to find someone to replace him.

People like Lu Bu are very weak in terms of righteousness and human feelings, and Liu Jian doesn't want him to continue to be too famous in his ancestral homeland.

But that doesn't mean Lu Bu isn't available.

For a person like him, staying by Liu Jian's side is the most suitable.

Moreover, the general position of General Zhengxi is much higher than that of Zhang Liao or Zhang Ji, Dong Min, and Dong Huang.

In the eyes of outsiders, Liu Jian can be said to be extremely reusable of Lu Bu!

But in fact, Liu Jian just used the position of a high-ranking official to tie Lu Bu to his side and watch.

From now on, Lu Bu will be a general by his side.

However, Lu Bu can't be completely used as a bodyguard.

In the future, when there will be many wars, he will also be sent out, but someone must be able to restrain him.

It's just that, besides Liu Jian, who should be used to contain Lu Bu?

After pondering about this matter, Liu Jian finally had an idea.

After Zhang Liao was sent to Bingzhou, Liu Jian began to plan the soldiers of the Han Dynasty and the battalions at all levels.

Too many soldiers and horses is a burden for the country.

Liu Jian ordered to begin recovering some veterans from the army who were older and had more outstanding achievements, but were not suitable to continue to fight on the battlefield.

These veterans have a wealth of combat experience. However, as he grew older, his combat effectiveness was not as good as before, and he was not suitable to continue fighting on the front line.

Therefore, Liu Jian planned to let these veterans take a back seat, and allocate them land, so that they could live a life of half farming, half teaching, and half assisting the local county subordinates to train the combat effectiveness of the recruits.

It has been ten years since he arrived in Hebei, and these ten years are enough for many people to grow old.

Some soldiers have entered the second half of their lives after these ten years, and they should be allowed to go back to take care of their old age, so that some fresh blood can be replenished into the army and optimize the army.

In this way, it not only lightens the burden on the imperial court, but also forms a better personnel mechanism for the army.

But since ancient times, the return of veterans to their hometowns to work as farmers has been a big problem.

The key is still in the cost of discharge.

It is too much to give, the burden of the imperial court is too heavy, and it is too little to give, which is too unfair for these ordinary sergeants, and it will also affect the reputation of the imperial court, and it will also affect the fighting spirit of the Han people to join the army.

Therefore, this degree must be mastered well.

Of course, even if all parties are satisfied with the accounting of the cost of resettlement and resettlement, there will be other troubles.

Layers of buckles!

This is the most critical question!

Therefore, Liu Jian decided to start to set up military tribunals and judicial supervision mechanisms in the imperial court, and set up a special discipline inspection department.

With regard to such problems as the military's embezzlement of ink and the embezzlement of pensions, strict punishment laws have been formulated.

A set of strict management supervision mechanisms and whistleblowing systems have been developed from top to bottom.

In history, many of the settling-in allowances and land issued to ordinary soldiers were seized by the government bureau, and they were all greedy for ink by the officials in the middle, but after the greed for ink, this big black cauldron had to be borne by the imperial court.

Liu Jian resolutely cannot allow this kind of thing.

As a result, Liu Jian reformed the Hebei Ta Kung Pao into the Da Han Dynasty Gazette, which was directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

The significance of Ta Kung Pao is to publish all policies in the states and counties on a regular and monthly basis.

The most important policy information in the imperial court and the major events that will happen in the world can be made public to the people as soon as possible from the perspective of official wine, and strive to achieve maximum transparency.

In later generations, this is somewhat similar to the news units supervised by the propaganda department.

But in this era, after all, there is no Internet, television and other things, but the Ta Kung Pao is used to publicize the will of the imperial court and the major events happening in the local area to the military and civilians in various states, and the rate is still too slow.

But that's the limit of this era.

For Liu Jian, this is already the maximum limit he can do.

It's better than nothing, right?

At the very least, the people of the states and counties can know the current details of the imperial court's promulgation, so that some state and county officials will not deceive their superiors and subordinates, deduct the benefits distributed by the imperial court, and at the same time use false information to paralyze them.

At the same time, Liu Jian also set up a discipline inspection and supervision mechanism in the local area to strictly supervise the execution of officials, especially money.

These discipline inspection and supervision mechanisms are under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court, and all officials are directly appointed by the imperial court, so as to ensure that local officials will not form a collusion of interests within a short period of time, so as to avoid collusion of interests.

These things are easy to say, but none of them are simple. And although Liu Jian only put forward a big frame of ideas, the implementation rules and the allocation of court personnel need to be carefully studied by the minister's government personnel, court personnel and the above-mentioned Taiwan, and approved and implemented step by step.

So it's a long job.

But since everything has begun, there will always be a good outcome.

Liu Jian is not in a hurry, he knows that some things cannot be done by his own generation, but he is willing to exchange time for space.

In my own generation, I will implement many things and determine the direction of progress, and then implement it from generation to generation.

There are a lot of good things, and once you come up with them and implement them, they can't be erased from history over time.

Even if the dynasty changes, the later people will still follow these good policies, after all, this is also beneficial to themselves.

After doing these things, it was already the middle of summer, and Liu Jian suddenly found that he still had a lot of things to do.

One of the most important personnel matters!

Although he stabilized the situation, he had not yet completely put the court under his control, and some potential risks still existed.

Therefore, in terms of personnel, since the imperial court has been on the right track, it should be re-arranged and dispatched by the court.

And Liu Jian also has to give an explanation to his subordinates, they have followed him for so many years, and now is also the time for them to be in a high position.

However, before dealing with this matter, it is a bit necessary to transfer a few people to Chang'an first.

These people have almost been honed in Hebei now, and it's time for them to come to Chang'an to do something higher.

In terms of Bingzhou, after Zhang Liao arrived in Taiyuan, he went to meet Guo Jia, the assassin of Bingzhou, in accordance with the rules.

In previous years, the history of the state assassin was mainly responsible for the supervision of the officials of a state, and the rank was only 600 stones.

However, over time, the power of the Thorns in the local area has grown, including the possibility of establishing their own Thorn History Department.

In addition, the history of the assassin was originally used to supervise the existence of the local taishou, so the authority of the history of the assassin in the state is still very large, and Guo Jia was originally a person that Liu Jian attached great importance to.

In Bingzhou, whether it is a wealthy family, a high-ranking family, or an official, they all know it very well in their hearts.

Whoever comes to the state must not worship Guo Jia's mountain first.

After Zhang Liao met Guo Jia, he immediately explained to Guo Jia the reason for his coming to the state.

At the same time, he also provided him with military orders from the imperial court, and in addition, he also gave Guo Jia a personal letter from Liu Jian to Guo Jia.

The content of Liu Jian's letter is nothing else, so he naturally explained the importance of Zhang Liao to Guo Jia.

He hoped that Guo Jia would cultivate Zhang Liao well in Bingzhou, so that Zhang Liao could become a member of Bingzhou and take on the military of Bingzhou for Guo Jia.

In addition, Liu Jian also explained one thing to Guo Jia.

He wanted to use Zhang Liao to be stationed in the governor, and at the same time transfer Zhao Yun to the center of Chang'an.
