Chapter 57 Kilidan River Guard

Some people say that the title of Da Chu is too high, with only three levels of Duke, Marquis and Bo, and no son, so the threshold is too high, and it is not easy to be named a marquis by relying on military merits. In fact, this is nonsense!

In fact, the officers of the Great Chu garrison were all hereditary, from commanders to thousands of households, all of which were hereditary. Although there were no nominal titles, they were essentially similar to titles.

These people were all military achievements made by the founding of the country and several early wars.

The marshals and generals with great military merits and high positions were granted the title of Duke and Marquis. The heroes with low positions became commanders, with thousands of households.

The vassal relationship between superiors and subordinates has been maintained.

Of course, even though the system of garrisons outside the pass has collapsed a lot, the garrisons are still extremely powerful. Many recruits have also transformed from garrisons.

So these relationships have been maintained!

The Xiayang Marquis Mansion was just a mere faction among the many inconspicuous houses of the Dukes and Marquis Mansions, and there was great potential in this Daning Town, let alone other families.

The Martial General named Pan Shugu called him a slave, kissed Zheng Xiaoming's boots and stood up. He immediately took a proud look at the other Tartar officials and Martial.

The Tartar officials and the Martyrs all looked envious. Since they were slaves of Xiayang Duke's Mansion, Xiayang Duke has now become the general officer of Daning Town. Pan Shugu is about to develop!

The other officials came forward to pay a visit and signed up for their names and made connections.

Xiayang Hou Mansion has a history of hundreds of years, and has been in constant marriage with various nobles and has mixed relationships. These people can always get to know each other if they want to make a relationship.

For example, this person said: "The third brother of Changshouhou married my second daughter and is considered my son-in-law. Xiayang Gong and Changshouhou are cousins, so we can also be considered relatives!"

Another said: "My uncle is my third uncle, and Mr. Xiayang also regards it as my uncle!"

One advantage of this kind of complex relationship is that it is in terms of governance. When Zheng Xiaoming becomes the general, everyone has to give him some face and not cause trouble.

But this also has its disadvantages. For example, if Zheng Xiaoming wants to carry out drastic reforms, it will inevitably hurt the interests of these people. At that time, all kinds of terrible strife will come one after another.

Fortunately, Zheng Xiaoming had never thought about military system reform in Daning Town. He just planned to practice all his innate qi in moderation.

So this scene is still harmonious at this moment!

Hello everyone, Hello everyone, Hello everyone, greetings, reminiscing about relationships, and showing loyalty.

But at this moment, a fast horse suddenly came: "Report! The Yadis people from the north crossed the Halaha Mountains and offended me, Jilidan River Guard."

So the scene became quiet for a moment, because Zheng Xiaoming's face suddenly became gloomy.

There was also a commander who had no eyes and smiled and said, "The place where birds do not shit like Jilidan River Guards do not shit. If the Yadis people are willing to occupy it, they will let him occupy it..."

Before he could finish his words, Zheng Xiaoming's knife-like gaze burned over his body, and he felt awe-inspiring in his heart and shut up obediently.

At this time, he suddenly remembered that Zheng Xiaoming, who was leading the Shanling Guard, went straight to Huanglong, destroyed the Dragon Nest in one battle, and turned Xiayang Hou into a powerful figure of Xiayang Gong!

The laughing expression on Zheng Xiaoming just now was wiped out, and a irritating spirit of killing came naturally.

"That's great! As soon as I took office, an enemy came to me to give me the power of holy virtue. How could I miss such a good thing?" This is Zheng Xiaoming's idea.

"Get me a map!" Zheng Xiaoming shouted softly, and someone immediately presented the map of Daning Town.

Daning Town is one of the important towns on the nine borders of Da Chu. It is located in the northeast. It was originally defended by the powerful tribes, various ethnic groups, and Tatars among the white mountains and black waters.

However, the most threat to the Great Chu was the Yadis people north of the Halaha Mountains.

That is the biggest enemy of Da Chu except for the demon disaster!

Zheng Xiaoming picked up the map and could see the entire territory under the jurisdiction of Daning Town. Theoretically, the scale was extremely large, with as many as thirty-six guards.

However, most of them belong to the bitter and cold primeval forests, and all around them are the tribes of the Marine Tatars. Over the years, the scope of the Daning Town has been narrowing, from the original thirty-six guards to now only 13 guards.

The Jilidan River Guard mentioned earlier has long been in name only, and the ward station has long been revoked. Even the position of the commander of the ward station has been granted to a nearby tribe. Now, in name, it still belongs to the territory of the Great Chu.

Now it is Jilidanhe's commander tribe who is asking for help from Daningwei!

Therefore, whether to save the Jilidan River Guard is just a thought of Zheng Xiaoming. Even if he doesn't save the court, the court will not blame him.

Because the so-called Jilidan River Guard is actually no longer within the territory of the Great Chu!

Looking at the map, Zheng Xiaoming also understood why the former imperial court, the general of the Daning Town, would actually abolish the Jilidan River Guard.

The reason is very simple, the distance is too far.

The straight-line distance between Jilidan River Guard is more than 1,800 miles away from Daning City.

There are very few residents along the way, with deep mountains and forests everywhere, and even savage tribes.

Only when the national strength and military front were the strongest at the beginning of the founding of the Great Chu country could the guard station be set up there!

So now, even if Zheng Xiaoming clearly wants military merits and the power of holy virtue, he is still a little scared when he sees the distance of more than 1,800 miles.

It is not too difficult for an elite army to pass through these deep mountains and forests that are more than 1,800 miles away. But the logistics is really deadly!

Zheng Xiaoming suppressed the demon disaster in Zhongjing, and relied on the important towns in Zhongjing, so he would not have to worry about food and grass. Even if he raided Maoming County, it would only cost a few hundred miles, so it would be enough to bring some dry food.

But now if you want to get to Jilidan River Guard, the straight line distance is 1,800 miles, but in fact, you may have to walk more than 2,000 miles, or even more than 2,500 miles. It is estimated that the march alone will take more than two months!

This is still the case when everything goes well.

So, Zheng Xiaoming looked at the map and pondered for a moment.

At this time, a Dusi Chen Qiang of Daningwei said: "Gongxian, I don't know if I should say it or not!"

Zheng Xiaoming said: "I am not the general officer of Daning Town yet! But if you have anything, let me listen to it!"

However, Zheng Xiaoming had not arrived in Daning City yet and handed over the defense with the incoming general officers. So from a legal perspective, Zheng Xiaoming was not the official general of Daning Town!

Of course, in fact, it is already!

Chen Qiang said: "Gongxian! The Jilidan River Guard is too far away. There is no road along the way. If we really send troops and expel those Yadis, we may be forced to go on an expedition. If one is not good, the entire army will be wiped out..."
