Bingzhou, outside a certain forest.
A magnificent barracks is under construction here in full swing.
Although it is still winter, with rewards and subsidies, many of the main forces of the Tang Army are working enthusiastically here despite the severe cold.
On a temporary high platform in the middle of the military camp, Xu Yunyan directed the soldiers who came back from cutting down trees to place the trees in the appropriate position according to his requirements.
Looking at the military camp that was arranged to his satisfaction, Xu Yunyan couldn't help but draw on the Tubibi in his hand again.
Although the weather was very cold, and even the ink on the brush was frozen into ice pimples in an instant, this could not stop Xu Yunyan from gesticulating here.
He worked hard to build a barracks that he was familiar with and had various supporting facilities and components that could be disassembled.
After a lot of hard work, I couldn't help but feel overjoyed when I saw several teams rushing in from a distance.
After Li Shimin handed over the power of the Anbei Protectorate, he couldn't help but pick people from here and there. Finally, he recruited most of his old soldiers, as well as those he knew well who followed him in Jiang. Those who had fought against the Turks in the state, even those who were not in important positions, were not spared, and they were all pulled over.
Seeing their arrival, Xu Yunyan couldn't help but smile at them as they arrived with numerous supplies of food and supplies.
Soon someone will be there to lead them to where they should go.
The military camp planned by Xu Yunyan was stationed according to the living positions issued in advance.
With the support of these people, there will be no problem in setting up his own military camp, and there will be no problem in the framework of the army.
Xu Yunyan was very happy about this.
After the newly arrived teams were stationed, the leading general began to move closer to Xu Yunyan. Xu Yunyan looked at these long-lost faces and gave them a fist.
"Brothers, you are going to suffer again."
These people were laughing and joking.
"General, what you said is a bit too foreign. We will only get better and better with the general. How can we suffer? The general transferred us here, and everyone was promoted to one level. Now there are There are many captains and generals like him."
Hearing this, Xu Yunyan looked around and found that the worst among these people was the brigade commander.
"Time flies so fast. They are all famous people now."
He couldn't help but rub his chin here. "In that case, I will take you to meet the other generals and colonels of the Anbei Protector's Mansion that His Majesty has left in the camp, so that you can get acquainted with each other."
The Tang army was organized into a team of five men, with ten men per team. Each team of fifty or so had a brigade commander, five teams had a brigade commander, and the two brigade commanders were controlled by a school lieutenant.
The five captains were led by one town general, and the four town generals led 10,000 people to form the Anbei Army, the army of the Anbei Protectorate. Now Xu Yunyan's four town generals have been thought of by Xu Yunyan, and Zhai Peng , Li Chun, Zhang Xia, Zhao Dong, as well as the twenty captains.
In the past, there were absolutely no problems with the old soldiers. In addition, there were forty brigade commanders under the captain. The brigade commanders were also born among Lao Xu, which made him even more comfortable in commanding.
What Xu Yunyan didn't expect was that these brigade commanders brought their confidants to act as captains for Xu Yunyan. In this way, the entire Anbei Protectorate's army was under his control.
Although Li Shimin arranged for him a deputy governor, two generals, four deputy generals, Chang Shi and others, Xu Yunyan was not worried about anything.
He doesn't have any bad intentions, and he won't hold these rights tightly in his hands. When Li Shimin needs it, he can easily delegate the power in his hands, which will save Li Shimin from being suspicious of him and doing that to his relatives. Something that pleases the haters.
Soon, Xu Yunyan led the brigade commander, school captain, town general and others to meet with the generals left by Li Shimin.
But walking halfway, Xu Yunyan looked at Zhai Peng and couldn't help but ask. "I called you out of your home just after you got married. Li Xiaoheng won't cause trouble for me, right?"
Xu Yunyan was a little afraid of this.
In later generations, I had a brother who was resting at home because he was newly married. When he was suddenly notified to return, the young wife found him on his head and scolded him severely.
That scene left him quite speechless.
This situation happened again, and Xu Yunyan couldn't help but ask here carelessly, fearing that there would be no way to explain if such a situation happened again.
Zhai Peng looked at him and said with a smile, "General, what are you worried about? How could such a situation happen? Even if such a situation really happened, I was the only one looking for you. How could you find the general? And general, you see Look, you have promoted us. Will my Li Xiaoheng still come to me?"
Zhai Peng was quite proud when he said this. He was originally a lieutenant of the Zhechong Prefecture under the seventh rank, but this time after he was transferred to the Anbei Protectorate as a town general, he became an official of the seventh rank. Although Xu Yunyan This is just a little bit of my impression.
Xu Yunyan, the newly appointed official of the Anbei Protectorate, is all rewarded in big ways. Now he has become an official of the seventh rank. Although he is still as big as a sesame seed in front of Xu Yunyan, this is still remarkable.
This is an unprecedented first for the Zhai family.
Zhai Peng, Zhang Xia, Li Chun, and Zhao Dong are all generals of the seventh rank, so there is no problem in commanding five captains to form an army of their own. However, this is only a nominal reality. Each of them will command one lieutenant. When there is serious military action, the four lieutenants arranged by Li Shimin will each command one.
Two of these four lieutenants belong to the same general, and the one above is the deputy captain of the Anbei Protectorate.
As for Xu Yunyan? Many times it may be impossible to lead the troops on an expedition in person, and the task of leading the troops on an expedition must be left to the lieutenant.
Now that Xu Yunyan has become the Protector-General, who is like a civil servant, he has to come forward to resolve any issues. As for the Turkic areas under the jurisdiction of the Anbei Protectorate, he has to give him instructions when all kinds of documents are sent to him.
Wouldn't it be troublesome if he led the army on an expedition but didn't give any approval? If someone asked for instructions but didn't know how to arrange it, wouldn't it be troublesome?
After Zhai Peng kept promising that he would never cause any trouble to Xu Yunyan and that Zhai Peng's relatives would not come to Xu Yunyan, Xu Yunyan looked at the other people.
"I only remembered that Zhai Peng had such a thing, but I forgot that several of your brothers were also in the same situation. The ugly words are mentioned earlier, but you really can't blame me. Who asked the imperial court to establish the Anbei Protectorate? , please be patient."
"General, you are no longer a stranger to us."
"What general? It's up to you to be the Protector now."
"I still find the general cordial."
"Friendly? Why don't you call me Governor?"
Soon the old soldiers were quarreling with each other, but Xu Yunyan would not interfere too much and could only comfort them here.
"Everyone, listen to me, we are all soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, not anyone else's.
I remember your love, but I may disappoint you. We still have a lot to do, but we can't take other things seriously just because we are familiar with each other. We are all brothers.
Also, I would like to apologize again. It is my fault for not considering your family. "
After Xu Yunyan explained to them, many people kept complimenting Xu Yunyan here. Xu Yunyan had given them benefits, and their mother-in-law couldn't wait for them to come forward and obey the order.
In order for their future generations to have a good future, why would they embarrass Xu Yunyan before it was too late to burn incense and worship Buddha?
Xu Yunyan looked at them talking like this, laughed, and then continued talking to them.
"Since you brothers will not cause me any trouble caused by my mistakes, after seeing His Majesty arrange to come to the generals and get to know each other, I will give you a clean break this evening."
When Xu Yunyan said this, everyone laughed and quickly followed Xu Yunyan into the camp.
As soon as I entered the camp, I saw seven people studying something around a sand table in the tent.
Looking at Xu Yunyan coming in, the few people who heard the noise hurriedly saluted Xu Yunyan's Baofan.
"I've met Lord Protector."
Xu Yunyan was still a little uncomfortable with their names.
"Brothers, why is this so? From now on, we will work together to serve His Majesty. The subordinates I removed have arrived and are just in time to meet the generals."
As Xu Yunyan finished speaking, these few people arranged by Li Shimin came to divide the school into left and right groups. After Xu Yunyan took his seat, he watched a group of generals, captains, captains and brigade commanders come in.
The general in the tent looked at them here, and at the same time asked them to recognize him clearly. After everyone came in, Xu Yunyan stood in the center and pointed at the one closest to him. Guozi had two beards on his face. Said someone who looked a little funny.
"This is Mr. Shi Jinshi, the Deputy Protector of the Anxi Protectorate."
After Xu Yunyan said these words, Xu Yunyan hurriedly came with many soldiers and hurriedly saluted here.
"I've met the deputy governor."
The loud voice and the passionate look made Shi Jin very satisfied.
"Everyone is polite, I am the Deputy Protector of the Anbei Protectorate, Shi Jin. I am polite here. From now on, we will be colleagues, and we will work together to serve His Majesty and the Tang Dynasty."
"I will obey the orders of the deputy governor."
Shi Jin said it very honestly. He didn't show any dissatisfaction with Shi Jin at all. They didn't dare to disobey Shi Jinyang. That would cause trouble for Xu Yunyan.
Li Shimin's arrangement definitely had some background. If he actually caused trouble for Wu Xu Yunyan, they would all feel quite sorry.
After introducing Shi Jin, Xu Yunyan pointed at Shi Jin and attacked the two generals.
"This is Li Yunlong and Li Yunfei, generals of the Anbei Protectorate for me."
After Xu Yunyan mentioned two more people, the same group of Xu Yunyan's confidants saluted them.
"I've seen the general before!"
But before the Li brothers could say anything, Xu Yunyan continued.
"Li Yunfei and Li Yunlong are brothers. Li Yunfei is the general of the Qinglong and White Tiger legions of my newly established Anbei Army. General Li Yunlong commands the two legions of Suzaku Xuanwu. The remaining four lieutenants are General Qinglong Li Kun and White Tiger General Duan. Kun, Suzaku General Feng Wu and Xuanwu General Hou Ji.
Each of these four generals will command one of your generals.
The generals Zhai Peng and General Qinglong, the generals Li Chun and General Baihu, the generals Zhang Xia and General Suzaku, the generals Zhao Dong and General Xuanwu.
Now that you all know each other, let's get acquainted with each other. Tonight, the Protectorate of Anbei will host a banquet to welcome you and wash away the dust. At the same time, we will also celebrate the establishment of the Anbei Army Framework of our Anbei Protectorate. "
This unexpected arrangement made the soldiers in front of them unable to react for a long time.
Four armies of 2,500 each commanded by the town general were organized into legions, and they were named Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku Xuanwu?
What kind of trouble are you trying to make?
Fortunately, at this time, everyone already knew that the four divine beasts were ranked among the four poles, so Xu Yunyan's statement was not considered a lie.
But by giving this title to our four generals, do you look down on them, or do you want to laugh at them? Although you are a miscellaneous general, you are so easy to do, so you can give them one of the four divine beasts?
This time, the four big sticks standing in front of Xu Yunyan were speechless.
But since it was arranged by Xu Yunyan, they wouldn't say anything more.
They couldn't do anything that would cause trouble for their generals.
