Wu Que led his men and sent Niu San and others to the prison of the county temple. He clapped his hands easily, thinking that these rogues might not be able to please them according to the newly established rules of the government.
In order to maintain order in the city, the Lord of the Prefecture has strictly ordered the Lu County Magistrate to send out thieves and assistants to patrol the city every day. Once any illegal activities such as provoking troubles or robbing people are discovered, they must be dealt with strictly and quickly.
He didn't expect that he would encounter this kind of thing when he was ordered to recruit troops in the refugee area today. In fact, he didn't need to lead the team in person, but Wu Erlang had a tiger's back, a wasp's waist, and a mantis' legs. He was born to practice martial arts as a soldier. That's why he looked at it differently.
Wu Que was once a guard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he also suffered hardships with Yang Qing in Du'an County. After An was appointed, he still served as a guard by Yang Qing's side.
He was proficient in literature, good at martial arts, and shrewd and capable, so Yang Qing asked him to lead the conscription mission to practice and practice so that he could be reused in the future.
You must know that Yang Qing regarded the soldiers brought from Chengdu as officers' seeds. Now he only keeps 20 of the 100 soldiers as his own guards, and the other 80 people have all been sent to the county soldiers, preparing to use them as new recruits. the backbone of the army, thereby rapidly improving the combat effectiveness of the army.
This time to recruit young men from the refugees, Yang Qing decided to recruit more than 2,000 people at once, which together with the original 800 or so county soldiers made up an integer of 3,000 troops. Only in this way could Yuesi County have a certain ability to protect itself.
Today, Jihan's military system still adopts the tribal military system of Wu, Shi, Team, Tun, Qu and Bu at the middle and lower levels.
The number of ministries and above depends on the situation, or two or three ministries are set up for a school to be led by a school captain and a lieutenant general, or four to six ministries are set up for an army to be led by a general and a side general, or seven to ten ministries are set up for a large army to be led by miscellaneous generals. command, while several armies are commanded by generals with heavy titles.
Of course, this is a regulation. In actual application, it will change due to a variety of factors, including differences in military positions and specific dispatch duties.
Especially at present, Prime Minister Zhuge is gradually setting up military and political official positions such as division, supervisor, guardian, dian, and shen to command the army and supervise the generals, which makes the current military leadership more complicated. It can be said that Ji Han's military system is currently It is still in an exploratory stage that changes according to military and political strategies.
Of course, most of these complex groping changes occurred in the central army and frontier army, while the military systems of local counties and counties did not change much.
The reason why Yang Qing appointed Zhang Yi as the Sima of the other divisions was to facilitate the expansion of the army and the establishment of the establishment. The general Sima of the army commanded an army of two thousand soldiers and horses, while the Sima of the other divisions who were specially appointed due to events could command several soldiers and horses.
This position was mostly temporary, because although Yang Qing had the power to command the army, he did not have a military position, and Zhang Yi was already very powerful in promoting him to be a commander in another department. If he wanted to enter the ranks of a captain or a general, He must achieve considerable military exploits.
At this time, the army expansion operation in Anshang City was being carried out in full swing. Since the army not only had enough food but also had a surplus, the young and strong people among the refugees actively participated.
Yang Qing had already ordered that the conscription must select honest, hard-working and good-natured sons. Those who committed crimes would not be recruited, and only sons in the family would not be recruited. Only in this way can the best soldiers be selected.
Along with the recruitment of soldiers, there were other corresponding measures such as recruiting workers, doctors, and farmers. After several days of deliberation, the strategy of using work for relief and solving dilemmas proposed by Yang Qing has been fully implemented.
When the refugees heard that they had enough food and rice tubes every day, they were all happy to be recruited. Even the local people in the city were interested in joining. Seeing this, Yang Xi and others did not dare to make the decision, so they entered the county temple to report to Yang Qing.
He pondered deeply, and was about to order direct management to take over, but suddenly he saw anxious expressions on the faces of Xie Ning, Li Chang, Lu Shen and others, knowing that everyone was worried about insufficient money and food.
The pressure on everyone was too great, so he ordered those in the city who had enough money and food not to recruit for the time being. Xie Ning and others secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, thinking that only tens of thousands of refugees could barely support them.
"How does Yuan Zhi think Governor Yang's governance has been these days?" Wang Yi asked Lu Shen in the house.
The two of them were very busy these days. There were fewer things to do today, so it was rare for them to get off duty early, so Lu Shen invited Wang Yi to his house again for a drink.
Lu Shen took a sip of wine and replied: "Although the prince is young, judging from what he does, he really has great ambitions. We live under him. I don't know whether it is a disaster or a blessing."
Wang Yi said with a smile: "It is understandable that young people are successful and young and energetic. However, the strategy proposed by me, Mr. Guanfu, to use work for relief and solve the dilemma himself is very unusual. He is said to be resourceful and resourceful, so he should not be underestimated. "
Although Wang Yi is not as good at planning and making decisions as Lu Shen, he is better than him in understanding people. After all, he is seven or eight years older and has been in the officialdom of the county for many years, so he has experience and knowledge.
When Lu Shen heard this, he did not deny it and said: "We don't need to worry about the talent of the prefect. Prime Minister Zhuge has already investigated it. But I am worried that he has not been to the place after all, so he may be deceived by villains."
When Wang Yi heard this, his expression changed and he said seriously: "Is that the person Yuan Zhi is referring to?"
Lu Shen nodded: "Yes, this person seems to have gained the trust of Governor Yang through this work-for-relief. If your guess is correct, then Governor Gong will learn from the past."
Wang Yi asked anxiously: "Then how should we respond?"
Lu Shen looked outside the door and saw that the door was closed. He felt a little relieved. He leaned forward and whispered: "I would like to ask my brother to report my guess directly to Governor Yang tomorrow. If you don't believe me, , brother, if you tell me again, the words of you and my brother will definitely make the prince think deeply."
Wang Yi understood what Lu Shen meant by asking him to report first. As a county official, he had a closer relationship with the prefect than he, the county magistrate, had.
And if his words are not trustworthy, tell him again. With the weight of the two officials in the county and county, the prefect can act accordingly.
Thinking of this, Wang Yi made up his mind and responded: "Okay, we will do this tomorrow."
After several days of recruitment, more than two thousand young men had been recruited. Yang Qing was overjoyed to receive the report, and immediately ordered Zhang Yi, Liu Yin and Lei Xiong to come to discuss the matter.
When Yang Qing saw that everyone had arrived, he asked Zhang Yi: "Bo Qi, have all the more than two thousand new soldiers been admitted to the camp?" Zhang Yi clasped his fists and replied: "Master Fu, Wen Ran and Huo Bingcao have completed the delivery of the new soldiers. , all reported to the army yesterday."
Yang Qing said happily: "Very good. Next is the training. What do you think about this?"
He has made up his mind, but it is better for everyone to discuss the matter together. After all, listening will make you wiser, not to mention that this is also a test for the three generals.
Hearing the eunuch's question, Zhang Ni, as the direct commander of the county soldiers, did his duty and replied loudly: "Master Fu, I think that in order to quickly increase the combat effectiveness of the army, the best way is to lead the army with the elders." New." Yang Qing smiled slightly and said: "How to bring in the new with the old?"
Zhang Ni seemed to have already made a plan, and immediately replied: "We have mixed veterans and new recruits, and let the veterans serve as corps commanders, commanders, and team leaders, these grassroots officers. Through these skilled and familiar military affairs, The seniors will guide the new recruits, and in this way they will be able to achieve great success in battle."
Yang Qing nodded and said: "Good. Bo Qi's strategy coincides with mine. Xiuran, Meng Lie, what do you two think?"
Meng Lie is Lei Xiong's cousin. Apart from him, the other four people in the room, Zhang Yi, Liu Yin, Yang Xi and Shen Da, are Yang Qing's confidants. In order to prevent him from feeling too close and distant, Yang Qing also called his cousin affectionately. Character.
