Chapter 530 Military Town (Part 1)
The carriage stopped after entering Sima Gate.
After a while, Cai Cheng came over, waved his hand, gave Yang Qin and Liu Ling a few instructions, and then left.
The carriage continued to move forward and soon passed Xianyang Gate.
Mrs. Liu put her hand towards the car curtain.
Although Mrs. Cheng was holding the child, she hurriedly stopped her and begged: "Madam, there are many people outside, don't let them see it."
Mrs. Liu pursed her lips and opened the car curtain.
Sure enough, there were many sergeants standing guard outside.
Some ruins have been cleared here, and there are people who look like prisoners dragging various building materials in and out - judging by the appearance of the materials, most of them were emptied from the ruins. As the saying goes, tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall, waste
use.
There were originally many offices in Xianyang Gate. On the west side from south to north were the Yezhe Terrace, Fujie Terrace and Yushi Terrace, while on the east side were the Prime Ministers and Cao Cao.
The west side is still a ruins, but the prime ministers and officials on the east side have cleaned and rebuilt part of it as early as the Shile era, because they also need office space. Now these prisoners are cleaning up another part of the ruins, and it seems that they want to destroy the prime ministers and officials.
The department is fully restored.
Mr. Liu was a little puzzled at first, and then seemed to understand.
There was a sound of commands coming from the front.
Mrs. Liu raised her eyes and saw that there were sergeants on duty in front of Xuanming Gate.
These people were wearing iron armor, carrying long spears, and hanging bows, quivers and ring-head knives from their waists. Some of them also carried small bucklers on their backs.
Xuanming Gate had long been destroyed by the flames of war, and now only an outline remained. The sergeants on duty lined up on both sides, with their spears crossed forward, preventing the carriage from moving forward.
Liu Ling smiled and stepped forward to negotiate, and the carriage was able to continue moving forward.
Mrs. Cheng lowered her head, as if she didn't want outsiders to see her face.
Ms. Liu held her head high, as if she was unwilling to lower her head even though she was behind bars. However, she couldn't help but take a few more glances at the sergeants on duty. They were very disciplined, meticulous, and well-equipped. At the same time, they also had a faint aura of rebelliousness.
She suddenly liked these soldiers very much for a reason that others might not guess: she actually saw a familiar flavor in these soldiers.
I still remember that when I was young, I went hunting in the mountains with my elders and saw many tribal warriors who looked like this.
Unruly, wild and rough, like an untamable beast that can bite and hurt people at any time.
Her father was still alive at that time, and he quietly told her that such soldiers were brave, fierce, and difficult to control, just like wild beasts captured from the mountains and forests, and they would grin when they saw people.
She asked innocently: "Such a beast cannot be used by humans except for skinning and eating meat. It is worse than a domestic dog."
The father laughed loudly, and then said with emotion: "That's true, but if someone can put collars on these beasts, so that they will be afraid when they hear the sound of the whip, obey subconsciously, and dare not show their teeth at people, then they will be more useful than dogs.
Too much."
The soldiers in front of me looked a bit like tribal warriors. They looked at people differently, but they were more docile and obedient than those warriors, and would not show their fangs to others easily.
What kind of people lead what kind of soldiers? This sentence is not just talk.
Each general has his own style of running the army.
Some people like to use whips and military sticks to beat soldiers until they cower, have no thoughts of their own, and subconsciously obey orders.
The troops brought out in this way are actually good troops. At least they have strict orders and strict military disciplines.
This is what Dahu did. The effect is another matter, but he has indeed been working hard in this direction.
Shao Xun seems to like to "nurture" on this basis and develop the ferocious nature of a soldier. I don't know how he controls it.
Disciplined, yet fierce and willing to fight.
Although such an army is a very useful sharp knife in his hands and can be used in every possible way, it is not suitable for him to be led by his son because he may not be able to control it.
Unconsciously, Ms. Liu looked a lot with her professional eyes and thought a lot.
In fact, she admires such an army, but she won't admit it.
When the carriage passed Xuanming Gate, Liu subconsciously sat up straight as she watched the rows of crossed spears being released one after another.
If these troops were used for her...
She quickly put an end to this idea. If Da Hu was given time, he would be able to build such an army.
After passing Xuanming Gate, there are yamen such as Shengxian Office and Internal Medicine Office in front of you, but they are all dilapidated and covered with weeds.
The sergeants cleared an area and then used discarded materials to build a temporary military camp for themselves to live in.
There is a training ground next to the military camp.
The sergeants were holding long spears with their heads removed, and they were sparring with each other.
Sometimes they are serious and slow in their movements, but when they actually attack, they are as fast as lightning and end the assassination in an instant - either they "die" or the enemy "dies".
There was a large group of people sitting on the floor nearby, laughing, yelling, or pointing.
Those who won more were rewarded with cloth. Although it was only a few feet long, it made them smile and hold it high above their heads, feeling proud.
Not surprisingly, it caused others to boo or yell, and soon someone stepped forward to challenge...
Mrs. Cheng was also attracted and looked over subconsciously. When she saw someone looking back, she looked away like a frightened little animal and lowered her head, nervous.
Mr. Liu had some understanding: Da Hu had lamented before that when money and food were sufficient, he would expand the number of "recruiting soldiers" so that they could serve as soldiers and feed themselves, so that they would no longer have to worry about their livelihood and could train without distraction.
This is Shao Xun's recruitment, right? It's really very leisurely, and they have enough time to practice against each other to vent their excess energy. Ordinary soldiers spend most of their time farming. Even if they have leisure time, they won't be able to practice for long before their stomachs growl. How about that?
Do you have so much time to hone your skills? You don't know much about military formations. When you go to the battlefield, you will only form the simplest formations. When you need to change formations, you will be in a hurry and make mistakes.
To put it bluntly, there is little practice.
The carriage was still moving forward, and soon passed Shengxian Gate and finally stopped.
There are also ruins here. Although times have changed, traces of being burned by fire can still be seen.
There is no doubt that this was burned by people sent by Jisang.
This person has low self-esteem, is sensitive, and is also very arrogant.
He hated a place like Ye Palace that symbolized power so much that he first looted all the treasures inside and then set them on fire.
But he himself sat greedily on the treasure and refused to take off his expensive fur even in the summer.
Da Hu had followed such a person before, no wonder he couldn't defeat Shao Xun...
Suddenly, Ms. Liu shook her head with some remorse.
Da Hu started from scratch, which is much more heroic than Shao Xun.
"Is anyone here?" Liu Ling walked to a somewhat dilapidated building and asked.
"Here he is, inside." The guard military academy replied.
"Get off the car and follow me in." Liu Ling waved and said.
Mrs. Liu's heart trembled. No matter how strong she is, she is still a woman. It is impossible to say that she is not afraid.
But she gritted her teeth, got out of the carriage with her head held high, and glanced at Liu Ling.
Liu Ling turned a blind eye.
Well, when he was working under Wang Mi, he had also heard of Mrs. Shangdang, but he had never seen her.
At that time, he also joked to Wang Sang, saying that Shi Le's strength would be greatly enhanced by marrying the Liu family, and sooner or later he would become angry with your brother.
Now it seems that he really made a mistake. Maybe Wang Mi will live longer than Shi Le.
After Ms. Liu got off the car, Ms. Cheng wanted to get off the car too, but was stopped by Liu Ling.
Mrs. Cheng trembled with fright and looked at Mr. Liu with tears in her eyes.
Mrs. Liu shook her head and entered Nayanta to the west.
On the west side of Shengxian Gate is the Nayan Gate, and on the east side is the Tingzheng Gate and the Shangshu Terrace - now they are all in ruins.
Nayanta has undergone simple repairs and is barely usable.
The surrounding weeds have also been cleared away, and the remaining green trees surround the pavilion, adding a bit of interest.
As soon as Ms. Liu entered the door, she saw several old acquaintances.
The Loyalty Army was led by Liu Hedu, the commander-in-chief, and Xu Guang, the commander-in-chief. The army was mainly composed of soldiers surrendered from Santai, and was supplemented by some young men from Yecheng. There were currently 4,000 people, most of whom were infantry.
The newly established Xiaojie Army was led by Tao Bao, the commander-in-chief, Cheng Xia, and Sima Zhixiong. This army was mainly composed of former Wei Jun soldiers, supplemented by some of the strong men from Yecheng, and currently had five thousand infantry.
There was also a stranger sitting next to Liu Hedu and Xu Guang. Listening to their conversation, he seemed to be an official from Henan sent by Shao Xun to serve as Sima of the Loyalty Army.
Liu Haozhu is also here.
Seeing this uncle, Mr. Liu looked at him angrily.
On the ice well platform, he persuaded the sergeants to abandon their weapons and surrender with a few words, causing the solid three platforms to break in half a month, making Liu's teeth itch with hatred.
"Niece, sit down quickly, Mr. Chen will be here in a moment." Liu Hezhu greeted with a smile.
Mrs. Liu took a look and saw that there were many strange rope chairs and beds in the room, and there was only one couch, placed at the top.
She hesitated a little, but there was no one on this couch, so she finally sat on it.
"Master Cai is in charge of Yecheng, and I will be his general from now on." Several people present whispered.
"Mr. Cai Fu is a former military governor of Mr. Chen, and he is deeply trusted. If we follow him, we will surely have the opportunity to make a fortune."
"There is no turning back. If the great Hu invades Yecheng, the first thing he will do is to kill me and my whole family. There is no way he will be forgiven."
"Can Dahu still come to Yecheng?"
"When we come, we'll fight him."
Ms. Liu looked at several people with disdain.
When they were generals under Da Hu, they were so trembling that they didn't dare to show their dignity. Now that they have surrendered to the new master, they can't wait to show their loyalty. They are all villains!
Liu Hezhu was sitting under Mrs. Liu and saw the expression on her face. After thinking about it, he felt that it was time to remind her.
I saw him leaning his head over and whispering: "Ye Na, you are not a stupid woman like that. I will say some things directly."
"The situation in Hebei is very confusing. No one can say whether Mr. Chen can gain a foothold in Hebei or whether Da Hu will come back. Maybe you still have some thoughts in your heart, but I want to ask you, if Da Hu comes back, what should you do?
How to deal with yourself?"
Mrs. Liu's body froze, stunned and speechless.
This was a question she had always avoided. When Liu Hezhu pointed it out, her heart was churning and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
At the same time, I hate some people even more, especially shameless people like Liu Hezhu, Tao Bao, and Zhi Xiong.
Liu Hezhu chuckled lightly and said, "Ye Na, it's understandable that you hate me, but this is wrong."
Mrs. Liu gave him a cold look and whispered: "Shameless."
"You will understand later." Liu Hezhu smiled and said, "We are close relatives and we are all your helpers."
Mrs. Liu still looked at him coldly.
Liu Hezhu asked: "How are Chen Gong's elite soldiers with silver spears doing along the way?"
Mrs. Liu didn't answer.
"You don't know." Liu Hezhu said to himself: "When we move forward in a car formation, we really can't move forward. Really, we have tried everything, even sending cavalry in armor to leap and charge, but it doesn't work.
.With such soldiers, the world can easily obtain them. If Dahu comes with his army, he will still be defeated by these people in a field battle."
There were footsteps outside the door, and everyone who was talking sat up straight.
Liu Hezhu lowered his voice again, came closer to Mr. Liu, and said mysteriously: "Mr. Chen only has two sons, both of whom are not very old."
After saying that, he sat back, not squinting, and sitting upright.
Shao Xun's figure appeared at the door, followed by Cai Cheng, Yu Chen, Zhang Bin and several new faces.
The soldiers rushed in and stood around in the pavilion.
Shao Xun stroked the handle of the knife and glanced around.
"See Mr. Chen." Everyone stood up together.
One or two seemed to be too nervous and stood up too quickly, knocking over the rope bed under their buttocks.
Mrs. Liu did not stand up, but raised her head slightly, giving a full view of the people to come.
This man is tall and strong, with traces of sand polishing on his face.
The left hand hangs down naturally and falls beside the bow tip, and the right hand caresses the handle of the knife casually.
With a gentle smile on his face and a sharp look in his eyes, everyone he glanced at subconsciously bowed their heads.
"Everyone, sit down." He said this to the few people who came with him.
Yu Chen took the opportunity to introduce them. It turned out that the new arrivals were Sima Huang Biao, the commander of the left-guard forward camp of the Luoyang Forbidden Army, Gao Yi, the warden of the Shengsheng Army, Chen Wu, the beggar commander, Tian Gui, the minister of the government, and two people from the Yanzhou shogunate.
Generals He Lun and Liu Qia.
The soldiers moved a few Hu beds and everyone sat down one after another.
Yu Chen sat opposite Liu Hezhu. Zhang Bin was silent for a while and sat on the rope chair beside Yu Chen.
Shao Xun didn't even look at Liu, and sat directly next to her.
Long legs, nice.
The buttocks are also quite elastic, which is different for women who exercise all year round. The flesh on their bodies is firm.
"Today I summon you all to defend Hebei." Shao Xun seemed not to be distracted and said directly: "I intend to set up military towns in the three counties of Ji, Wei, and Dunqiu. The town has a town, a town, and a town.
The army controls the generals to ward off thieves and bandits."
When he said this, he was looking at Chen Wu, the beggar commander, and Liu Hezhu, the chief commander of Dalu Ze.
Obviously, the military town was mainly set up for vassal forces like them.
Zhang Bin frowned. Obviously, he did not know the news in advance.
But it's normal. He has no official position, and Mr. Chen didn't say to let him go. He just followed him without any explanation. It's normal for him to avoid him for some things.
Just——a military town?
Is it to recruit those disobedient beggar soldiers or even barbarian tribes?
Sooner or later, Mr. Chen will leave Hebei. Once he leaves, the Hu tribesmen and Hu tribes may defect to the Huns again, so give them a formal status?
Sure enough, Shao Xun then said: "Recently, several people from the Guangping chieftain came to vote, each with hundreds of troops, ranging from a thousand to more than a thousand, so we came up with this proposal."
After saying that, he clapped his hands and asked Yu Chen to explain to everyone what a military town was.
