Chapter III Internal and External Armies
In the early morning, Shao Shude was awakened by the people around him.
Well, it seems that I haven't slept in bed for a long time. Marines and wars are hard. Even the military leader has to sleep in the camp. Apart from the tall and mighty personal soldiers, there are only vicious warriors. After a year or two, I'll see
The sows all feel beautiful, and they feel comfortable sleeping in a broken bed. Is this a life for people?
"General, I'm going to Xiazhou today, please go early. I'll go to see the general of Jieshuai. A gift for meeting is indispensable. I heard that Zhuge Zhuge has a very small background and I'm afraid I don't like calligraphy and paintings, so I might as well give some war horses.
Gold and silver utensils. The generals around the generals can also make friends with one or two..." Zhao Yu gently moved away the rough hand pressing on his chest and said softly: "The general is the governor, and the general needs to report to the emperor to the court.
At this time, it is advisable to wear an official robe to see him. Lu and Li have been following the general for a long time and are looking forward to the official body. The general may as well ask for it back, and Mo Han will understand the hearts of the generals."
"Well, Yu Niang is such a virtuous man." Shao Shude stood up and put it on under the service of Zhao. He was wearing the governor's robe to meet Jieshuai. To be honest, he was really not used to it. Considering that it would take more than two days to go on the road, what if he wants to do if he wants to do it.
What should I do if the official robe is dirty or broken? Even if it encounters an enemy, it will be very troublesome.
"There are several gold and silver utensils in the state yamen, and the golden Capricorn pattern cup. I think my appearance is good, so I should be from the middle class in Shu. Zhuge Shuang is not young anymore and should like the food utensils made of gold, with a lottery for immortality.
A gilded silver cage is also good, and wealthy families used it to hold tea cakes. Zhuge Shuang became the commander, so naturally someone around him taught him these things. The general sent it to him for a good use. The supervisor gave the silver plastered beam jar. The general
To be kind to him, the gift means that this jar is of good value, and it is just right." Zhao Yu said while helping Shao Shude tidy up his official robe.
Shao Shude vaguely saw those gold and silver utensils yesterday, but he didn't care too much and asked casually: "How can Yu Niang understand these utensils?"
Zhao Yu smiled without saying a word, then carefully glanced at Shao Shude. Seeing that he was not angry, he continued: "I don't understand the war horse bow and knife, so the general can choose it."
"Okay." After wearing it, Shao Shude felt uncomfortable and sighed: "This clothes are really hard to wear."
"I'm already looking for someone to make garment clothes, but I'm not sure I found a craftsman who made ritual knives."
"Forget it, don't be so particular." Shao Shude waved his hand and was about to go to the kitchen to have breakfast. Before leaving the door, he seemed to have thought of something, turned around and hugged Zhao Yu in his arms, and said, "What should I say in front of someone in the future
After all, a certain person has a very small background, but his mind is not narrow."
After breakfast, Zhu Shuzong had been waiting in the yard for a long time.
"Let's go." Shao Shude greeted all the soldiers. He went to Xiazhou and first visited Zhuge Shuang, and then met Qiu Weidao. Asking for money and food and prosecuting himself was the top priority, and getting to know the generals of Xiazhou was the next. If possible, then
After observing Tuoba Sigong, I just don’t know if he will come.
On the fifteenth day of August, the group rushed to Shuofang County, which is Xiazhou City, on the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Xiazhou is the Tongwan City built by Helian Bobo. It is said that more than 100,000 people were mobilized to build it, "steam the soil to build a city, and one inch of the cone will kill the author", so it is very strong. During the Later Tang Dynasty, An Congjin led a large army to siege Xia.
Because the city is high and the pond is deep, the use of ladders and siege vehicles has almost no effect, so I dig the tunnel, and it turned out to be "solid as iron and stone, and shovels cannot enter." Song Bai, a native of the Song Dynasty, also said, "The city is white and firm,
There are nine towers, which are steep and steep...not attacked by human power."
In the fifth year of Chunhua in the Song Dynasty, he was ordered to fall into Xiazhou City (Zhao Er was addicted to demolishing the city), but in later generations, the Xiazhou bell tower was still ten feet high, the city wall was three floors, and the base site still existed. It can be seen that the building quality of this city is very
It is almost natural to be a Xiasui Town District.
It was also the first time that Shao Shude saw the legendary Tongwan City. He quickly circled around before entering the city. He thought that the city was about ten miles away, which was much larger than the Suizhou City, which was more than four miles away. The south of this city was Wuding.
There is Wushui (a tributary of Wuding River) in the north of the river. A large number of farmlands are opened nearby that are conducive to irrigation, and many cattle, sheep and horses are raised. There are even large orchards, with abundant agricultural production.
During the Kaiyuan period of this dynasty, the tributes in Xiazhou were mainly horn bows, felts, crisps, and frost-repellent. The taxes collected were hemp and cloth. It can be seen that it was indeed a place where farming and animal husbandry converged, and it was suitable for farming and herdsmanship.
Shao Shude could hardly hide his desire for this city. Only when he got Xiazhou could heroes have a place to use their skills!
*******
The governor of the yamen, Zhuge Shuang personally took Shao Shude's arm, pulled him to his side and sat down, and said to the generals in the hall: "This is Shao Shude, the governor of Suizhou. In the battle of Beifanzhi County in the past, he led the battle of
The troops killed Li Keyong's general Cheng Huaixin. Thousands of tigers in the Tielin Capital were all able to recruit elite soldiers who were used to fighting. With the virtue of the tree, the four states of Xia and Sui were worried."
"Congratulations to the general of the general," everyone said in a verbal manner.
Shao Shude took advantage of the situation to scan the hall, but saw more than ten generals and the same number of civil servants and subordinates, who should be the core circle of Xiasui Town. Zhuge Shuang introduced him one by one, which ones were following him from Ruzhou.
The elderly from Luoyang, who are generals of the Xia Suiya (Yasui) army, and who are shogunate officials.
Shao Shude tried his best to remember it in his mind, and he roughly found out. Pei Shang from Yinzhou did not come, Tuoba Sigong from Youzhou did not come, and the military commander he wanted to meet the most in the Yamen Army did not come because he was far away.
The Lu Army is a very special force in Xiasui Town, with more than 5,000 people in total, with about 3,000 cavalry. It is a large-scale field cavalry group that must not be ignored in the northwest region. It is stationed in Yuzhou in the northern border of Yuzhou.
Dole City is not far from Fengzhou.
Shao Shude was a little disappointed when these two people didn't come, but he still cheered up and met many confidants who followed Zhuge Shuang from Henan. Everyone is outsiders. You come from Dongdu and I come from Fengzhou. If you want to be here
It is the right thing to gain a foothold in the four states of Xia and Sui, and to watch over and help each other.
Zhuge Shuang brought a total of 3,000 soldiers left behind in Luoyang! Among Shao Shude's priority, this group of people was the highest, followed by the generals of the Yamen Army.
"Today, all the generals gathered, and I was very happy. When I was in the past, I never thought about today?" Zhuge Shuang raised his wine glass and smiled and said, "I am old and don't think about many things anymore. I just wish to be rich for the rest of my life.
All the generals drink this cup!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drank.
"I am the commander's day is short, and there are some things I haven't done yet. This is my commander's mistake." After three rounds of wine, Zhuge Shuang put down the golden cup, glanced at the generals, and said, "The State Council is in the town, the Yajun Army
, Foreign troops, Zhizhou soldiers, and county soldiers have their own styles. In order to make the generals think, our general intends to make some adjustments."
When Shao Shude heard Zhuge Shuang claiming to be "the general", he was immediately excited. Is he going to take action against the existing military system in Xiasui Town to better install his own people?
"In the four prefectures of Xiasui, except for the Dangxiang Federation, there are more than 20,000 soldiers." Zhuge Shuang said: "I am determined to place 3,000 personal troops in the Yamen Army. Zhongfang, you are in charge of this army, and at the same time,
Do not let someone down.”
"I will train Xie Dashen." Zhuge Zhongfang stood up and responded with an excited expression.
Shao Shude already knew that Zhuge Zhongfang was the son of Zhuge Shuang, so what he talked about at the time was military affairs, so he called himself the "last general". Most of the 3,000 people he led were soldiers brought by the two of them from Luoyang.
"The left and right sides are placed, with a military quota of three thousand each. Hou Hui, you are the commander of the left and right sides, and you are the commander of the military commander of the left and right sides, and you are the commander of the horse and brigade of the horse and brigade of the horse and brigade of the horse and brigade of the left sides, and you are the commander of the military commander of the left sides, and you are the commander of the military commander of the left sides, and you are the commander of the military commander of the left sides, and you are the commander of the military commander of the left sides, and you are the commander of the commander of the army commander of the left sides, and you are the commander of the commander of the army commander of the left sides, and you are the commander of the commander of the army commander of the left sides, and you are the commander of the commander of the army commander of the left sides, and you are the commander of the commander of the army commander
Hu Jing, you serve as the commander of the right wing and the commander of the right wing capital; Li Shoucheng, you serve as the commander of the capital, and the commander of the ward."
Hou Hui, Zhou Rong, Linghu Jing and Li Shoucheng stood up one after another to receive the order. Hou Hui and Li Shoucheng have a Henan accent and should be Zhuge Shuang's old subordinates. Zhou Rong and Linghu Jing are mostly tooth generals from the former Xiasui Town
Zhuge Shuang adjusted this way and did not have the most sensitive military power. To be honest, she is still relatively conservative, and may also be afraid of chaos.
Although the 9,000-man yamen army is not as large as tens of thousands of people in Hedong, it is also quite powerful. It is no problem to guard Xiazhou and deter all sides.
"Outside Army Town..." Zhuge Shuang rubbed the wine bottle in his hand and said, "The Strategic Army is still under the jurisdiction of Yang Yue, and is also the deputy envoy of the Jiedushi, the military quota is 5,000, the military guards, scattered generals, assistant officials and others are as usual
.”
Yang Yue did not come to Yudole City, but Zhuge Shuang obviously did not intend to touch him, nor did she dare to touch him, for fear of something happening. The title of Deputy Governor of the Jiedushi is the standard for the foreign military chief, but in fact it has no eggs.
If you use it, you can only get one extra salary.
"One other Tielin Army." Speaking of this, Zhuge Shuang glanced at Shao Shude, regardless of the other people's surprise gaze, and said: "Shao Shude is the Iron Army envoy and the Deputy Governor of the Jiedushi. He has a military quota of 4,000, and the army has a built-in army.
One member of the envoy, one deputy envoy, one member of the Du Yuhou, one member of You Yi, eight scattered generals, one member of the Kongmu official, and one member of the judge, one member of the chief official, one member of the chief official, one member of the chief official, one member of the chief official, one member of the chief official.
I will report the list and I will issue it to myself."
"Thank you for cultivation!" Shao Shude stood up, knelt on one knee, and shouted loudly.
Zhuge Shuang can actually control the 3,000-strong yamen army. After all, the 9,000-strong yamen army has not yet established prestige. There are now nine thousand foreign troops, and Yang Yue, who is in charge of the army, has very experienced.
Old people are mostly not very handsome in the Bird Festival, so there should be checks and balances in the other Iron Lin Army.
This total of 18,000 people is the legendary "army inside and outside", and is the core armed force of a vassal state. For example, in the previous Hedong Town, the Gulan Army was the foreign army, and the Jinyang Army was the Yajun Army, and there are also
There are many soldiers in Zhizhou, county and town soldiers, and the people are suffering.
"Zhizhou soldiers..." Zhuge Shuang continued to appoint: "Xiazhou Town's army quota is 2,000, and I am the general in charge; Yinzhou's army quota is 1,500, and Pei Shang, the general of Yinzhou Pass and Yuhebao Town;
The military quota of Suizhou was 1,500, and Shao Shude led it and was also the commander of the Suizhou town. There were not many soldiers in the county and town, but now they will be dismissed."
The Zhizhou soldiers are the own army of each state in the vassal state. They are generally led by the governor and are also supported by the local finance. The shogunate does not pay for the money and food. The full name of the governor of the state is "the military affairs of a certain state" and is
The highest commander of the state soldiers. Some states, in addition to the regular state soldiers, also set up militia groups, and the regiment commander was led by the regiment commander. Sometimes the governor also serves as the regiment commander, the defensive censor, the confinement commander, the guard and the guard commander, etc.
There is no customization, it depends on what is done locally.
Shao Shude is the governor of Suizhou. The 1,500 troops in Suizhou are under his command and are supported by the state finance. The 4,000 Iron Lin Army is the outer town army. It cannot be maintained by Suizhou. It must be supported by the shogunate. As for the specifics,
The proportion depends entirely on the actual situation and there is no certain rule. For example, the Strategic Army, which is stationed near the desolate Yudol City, almost 80% of the expenses are supplied by the shogunate, and the other 20% of the Dangxiang tribes controlled by them are paid tribute to fill the gap.
By the way, the system of Youzhou is very different because it is a place with Dangxiang people as the main body. The governor of Youzhou is Tuoba Sigong. Although he is self-proclaimed, the court has actually agreed. At the same time, he also serves as the Dangxiang Bing of Youzhou.
The envoy of the horse. He has a lot of troops under his command. He doesn't care about the shogunate, but he won't give him a penny anyway. Sometimes when he is short of money, he still wants to pay a little tribute. If he wants to fight, he has to send troops. After all, you are an official general of the court.
.
After the appointment was completed, Shao Shude calculated that the yamen army was 9,000, foreign army was 9,000, and the state soldiers were 5,000, with a total of 23,000, which was even more expansive than when Zhuge Shuang took office. This cost must be very tight.
