Chapter 45: The Commander's Mansion Senate

Jiang Xi thought about it, thought for a while, and said: "I have only been in charge of the staff for a few years longer than the commander-in-chief, and I don't know much about my country's talents. A few years ago, Marshal Wang Deng defeated the allied forces of Qi and Cao, and I think he is a suitable candidate for the commander. ”

"It's not proper!" Yang Chao, the commander of the Military Command Department, said, "Wang Deng has more than enough wisdom and not enough bravery, and there are also noble local legions on this expedition. What's more, Wang Denghui has already made great contributions, and it is better to let this battle to others. ”

In fact, what Yang Chao wanted to say was the last sentence, Wang Deng is a member of your Jiang family, and he has already made military achievements, so don't come to rob it this time.

"Oh, then, Commander Yang is the right person. Jiang Xi didn't insist.

Yang Chao was about to answer, but Long Kun, the commander of the equipment department on the side, preemptively said: "I think Yan Ge, the commander of the Twelfth Legion, is suitable, and those proud soldiers and fierce generals of the Twelfth Legion will clean up for him." ”

"Hahaha, Commander Long is really virtuous, Yan Ge is your brother-in-law. Gongsun Jie, the commander of the Ministry of Military Justice, said jokingly.

"Hmph, my brother-in-law can't do it, do you want your son Gongsun Jie to go?!" Long Kun glared at Gongsun Jie.

Long Kun can not be said to be poisonous, Gongsun Jie was the former division commander of Ding Cai, and it has become a joke of the military.

The relationship between the most oily equipment department of the Commander's Mansion and the Qingshui Yamen Military Justice Department has always been discordant, and others may be afraid of the Gongsun family, but the Long family doesn't care at all.

As long as there is money, there will be no shortage of substitute ghosts, no matter how good the Ministry of Justice is, it can't help the people of the Long family, Uncle Long is rich and capricious.

Will someone say that there is no oil and water in the logistics department?

There are countless pairs of eyes staring at the money in the logistics department, and there may be a little autumn breeze when there is a war, and usually a little filial piety at the bottom. If it weren't for the fact that the former Ding family and the current Jiang family of the General Staff didn't care much about money, otherwise the General Staff would still have more oil and water than the Logistics Department.

The force in the hands of the Ding family and the power of the Jiang family have already made the king uneasy, and if he makes a lot of money, it will pose a threat to the royal family.

"Long Kun, you, you ......" Gongsun Jie pointed at Long Kun, so angry that he couldn't speak.

"Okay, okay, the two commanders don't have to be impatient, everyone is worried about the country. I think Commander Yang has something to say, so let's listen to Commander Yang's opinion. Seeing that the two had gone off topic, Shao Dianzhang had to come forward to stop it.

Yang Chao wanted to speak several times, but was interrupted, and said with a dissatisfied face: "Two adults, this battle is related to the face of my Shaodian Country, the majesty of my Commander's Mansion, and the selection of the commander must be cautious!"

The commander of the Eighteenth Legion, Luo Kui, has been a fearless knight for many years in the late stage of promotion, and his troops are strong and strong, and he will be the commander, and he will definitely be able to defeat the Qi State and return triumphantly. ”

"Commander Jiang, what do you think of this person?" Shao Dianzhang looked at Jiang Xi.

"Since he is the person recommended by Commander Yang, he must be competent, and I listen to the arrangement of the commander. "Jiang Xi doesn't leak, since he can't get any benefits, he can't leave a handle.

Shao Dianzhang looked at the remaining three commanders, "What do you mean?"

"I have no opinion on people who are both approved by Lord Yang and Lord Jiang. Xun Qi replied.

"I don't have a problem with that. Long Kun and Gongsun Jie said together, looked at each other after speaking, and quickly twisted their heads away.

"Okay, that's it, the coach of this expedition is served by Yang Kui. Please Commander Yang order the 17th and 18th Army Corps to follow Kui on the expedition, and ask Commander Jiang to draw up a plan for the expedition as soon as possible, so that I can leave it to the king to decide, and the other commanders must also cooperate fully, and the first battle of my commander's mansion in 20 years cannot be lost!" Shaodian Zhang immediately made a decision and gave an order.

The Commander's Office was in full swing to prepare for this expedition, and the Senate also held an emergency meeting of elders.

Every ten years, the Shaodian Kingdom would hold a general meeting of the nobles, and the nobles present would vote for ten representatives to serve as elders in the Senate, and be responsible for managing the affairs of the nobles.

The ten elders of the Senate represent the ten nobles of the kingdom, and now the ten elders are: Yang Zhao, the Duke of Dingguo,

Zhongguo Gong Xuanyuan Xiong,

AN Guogong Jiang Tong,

Wen Guogong Kong Ci,

Sun Da, Gonggong of Weiguo,

Legal Firms,

Weiguo Gonglongdang,

Li Guo Gong Xun Ruo,

YAO Ai, Rongguo Gong,

Xingguo Gong Fan Yu.

They are known as the "Ten Dukes".

Yang Zhao told the other elders that the king was going to sweep the east bank of the Yuan River in the Qi State and send two legions from the noble territory to participate in the battle, and discussed where to recruit the local army.

When the armies of the nobles were needed to participate in the war, the Senate would take turns to recruit troops from among the nobles in the country, and in principle, each state would draw a maximum of one legion.

The smallest territory of the nobility was the town, and each town had a hundred soldiers, each city was one thousand and one thousand soldiers, each county was twenty-two thousand, and each state plus the state city was four hundred and fifty thousand.

The nobles who took their turn were drawn half of the number of troops according to the size of the territory, and those who were unwilling or unable to send people had to pay twice the wartime salary to mercenary troops.

Whichever family's army has made a meritorious service, it will be calculated on the head of the lord of which family, and if something goes wrong, the lord of the same family must be held responsible.

Each lord will send the most elite manpower around him, and no one dares to find someone to replace him at will.

"This time, it is the turn of Zhongwangzhou and Hailin Prefecture to send troops, but the time for this battle is urgent, so Zhongwangzhou will send two legions to participate in the battle. Yang Zhao was the first to speak.

After all, war kills, and those hereditary nobles are generally reluctant to send troops into battle, they do not expect to be able to rise to the title, and they are not willing to lose their elite manpower.

Half of the elders' domains in the Senate were in Zhongwangzhou, including the Yang family, the Jiang family, the Gongsun family, the Long family, and the Xun family.

"I'm afraid this is not appropriate, the nobles who don't have their turn will definitely be very dissatisfied. Liguo Gong Xun Ruo frowned, if he only sent a legion, it would not be the turn of the Xun family.

"We are taking the initiative to attack this time, the soldiers are very fast, if we let Hailinzhou send troops, they have already started fighting on the battlefield, it will definitely be too late in time, is it difficult for the Duke of the State to have a way to solve this problem?" Jiang Tong said lightly to the Duke of Li.

Anyway, it will definitely be the turn of the Jiang family this time, his son is still serving in the Commander's Mansion, and Jiang Tong supports sending local legions as soon as possible.

"This, what do you think of Wei Guogong and Wei Guogong?" Xun Ruo sought the support of Gongsun Da and Long Dang, who also did not have their turn to send troops.

Long Dang said without hesitation: "Serving the country, my Long family has never been willing to be left behind, if my family is transferred, there will definitely be no one less." ”

Gongsun Da thought for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Everyone should know the situation of my family, so as not to affect the war, it is better to transfer it elsewhere." ”

Yang Zhao said confidently: "In that case, let's vote." ”

In addition to the Yang family, the Jiang family and the Long family, the Yao family in Hailin Prefecture of course supported the troops sent by Zhongwangzhou.

The Kong family in Nannuma Prefecture was worried that it would be their turn and also supported Yang Zhao's decision.

The Fan family in Linhai Prefecture has always supported Yang Zhao, and voted in favor without accident.

The Xuanyuan family in Linhai Prefecture remained neutral, and no one helped them, abstaining from voting.

Only the Xun family, the Gongsun family, and the Bao family were opposed.

"Six against three, then this time Zhongwangzhou sent two legions to participate in the battle, and I will return this result to the king tomorrow. Yang Zhao quickly made a decision so as not to have too many dreams at night.

In fact, long before the meeting began, Yang Zhao had already calculated that even if the Long family objected, his proposal would eventually be passed by five votes to four.

That night, Jiang Tong approached Yang Zhao and asked, "Why do you oppose Wang Deng as the coach?"

"My lord, Qi Guo killed my grandson-in-law, how can my Yang family ignore it! After all, Wang Deng is too soft, and he is full of murderous nature, and he will definitely use the life of the people of Qi to pay tribute to my grandson-in-law.

Your youngest son has taken over the helm of the General Staff, and if you show more favor to people from other factions, your Jiang family's position in the military will become more and more solid in the future. ”

"Well, I hope your people won't let me down this time. After all, the two families are in-laws, and Jiang Tong only agreed to this exchange of interests.

Two days later, Yang Zhao took the requisition order issued by the king to Zhongwangzhou Prefecture and Zhennan City, and at the same time, the commander of the Eighteenth Army Corps, who was guarding Haishan Prefecture, rushed back to Zhenjing through the magic teleportation array.

General Staff of the Commander's Office.

Kui, who came in a hurry, met with Commander Jiang Xi and two deputy marshals, Wang Deng and Jiang Hua.

He is nearly two meters tall, burly and well-developed, with short hair standing up like steel needles, eyes like copper bells, a nose like scales, and a beard.

The man asked respectfully, "How does the General Staff plan for this battle?"

Jiang Xi waved his hand to signal Luo Kui to sit down, and said, "This time you are the boss, we are waiting for you to come, and we also want to hear your opinion." Wang Deng, first of all, tell me about the current situation. ”

As he spoke, the operational staff officers of the General Staff spread out a map of the eastern border of Shaodian Kingdom.

Vice Marshal Wang Deng got up and walked to the map, pointed to the map, and said: "The two local corps in Zhongwangzhou will rush to Yangyuan Prefecture by the end of June, and the 178th and 2 corps will also arrive in Hexi Prefecture by the end of June. ”

The eastern border of Shaodian is the Tongyuan River, and from north to south are Shanwon Prefecture, Hexi Prefecture, Yangyuan Prefecture and Nannuma Prefecture.

"Since the military intelligence personnel of our country and Cao State fought fiercely on the border between the two sides before, we can use this to create a false impression that the local army will arrive at the border between Yangyuan Prefecture and Hexi Prefecture, and pretend to cross the river to attack Cao State. The 13th and 14th Army Corps, which was originally stationed in Yangyuanzhou, pressed to the front line of the border and strangled the scouts and spies of Cao State.

All the large ships in Yangyuan Prefecture were transferred to Hexi Prefecture, the 178th Army Corps crossed the river in the central part of Hexi Prefecture, and the local army crossed the river in Yangyuan Prefecture, landing in Qi State respectively and seizing the city of Lijiang, where the four corps converged.

After the corps converged, the specific arrangements would depend on the reaction of the Qi State, and I suggested sending two legions to the east to make a feint, and the other two corps to sweep the grain-producing areas of the Qi State. As long as you move quickly, you can achieve this goal within a month. After Wang Deng finished speaking, he walked back to his place and sat down.
