Chapter 107 Han Gyu
Although the news about Xu Huai and the people of Chushan among the scholars and ministers has always been very disappointing, Han Gui, who suffered many setbacks in the imperial examinations and entered the Chief Supervisory Office as an official, did not have much prejudice against Chushan in his heart.
Perhaps Han Gui could not see as thoroughly as Shi Zhen in the past, but seeing the easy fall of Bianliang and witnessing the fall of Bianliang, millions of people were all slaughtered and enslaved. The rest of them were just living a life of silence, and they fully recognized the weakness and incompetence of the scholars and officials, and knew that expelling the barbarians and restoring the Central Plains, and they could never look down on these people.
Therefore, Shi Zhen sent someone to lobby, but Han Gui agreed without hesitation. However, his mother was seriously ill and bad at work, so she could only stay in Bianliang (Zhu Xianyi) for the time being.
When he first met Bianliang, Han Gui didn't know the whole picture of the Wanshui Strategy. His impression of Xu Huai was mainly at the level of being brave and good at fighting and daring to use strange weapons. However, after the Ruying Victory, the Wanshui Strategy was truly presented to the world. Han Gui knew that the Ruying Victory was by no means simply described as "strategic strategies".
Whether it was the initial idea proposed or the subsequent implementation step by step, leading the enemy into the wreck, or even achieving brilliant results in the final victory, Xu Huai and the people of Chushan showed the ultimate use of limited resources and elites.
In the past, Han Gui might have felt that he was not satisfied with his talent, but at this time he wanted to join Chushan and understand what kind of confidence and ability Chushan had obviously had at his disadvantage in his strength, so that he could set up such a strange situation.
Xu Huai asked him what he thought of the rebels of Songshan. Han Gui followed Han Changfu at the end of August and Zhou Xuyi retreated westward into Songshan. At this time, he followed Zhang Xiongshan and others to Chushan. Of course, he had a very intuitive and in-depth understanding of the rebels of Songshan, but he did not show his talent at all, and said respectfully:
"...The source of the righteous troops of the various tribes in Songshan is complex, and the quality is difficult to match. There are loyal and righteous people, but there are those who build camps and protect themselves, those who kill families and houses, and those who defeat soldiers and generals, and they cannot generalize them. Han Gui's talent is simple and knowledgeable, and he cannot find a way to serve the court once and for all. According to the ability of Han Tu, only by carefully sorting out and choosing loyal and righteous people to help him gain a foothold in Songshan can he seek other things..."
Among the resistance troops of Songshan, three or four other troops, including the Black Shirt Army, had a high recognition of Chushan and was willing to accept Chushan's enrollment, but Han Gui did not advocate doing this immediately.
The main reason is that the many mountain villages in Songshan are complex sources. Each family has built a village to protect itself, or fallen into a bandit, or temporarily landed and hide, or has a strange product to live in. There are huge differences in various purposes. There are even quite a lot of mountain village forces. Not only are they unwilling to accept the command of Chushan, they are even unwilling to have too deep involvement with Chushan, so as not to become the target of the enemy's key attacks and clearances.
Han Gui even advocated that Chushan would participate in the Bianliang raid on the surface and could not hide the rebels, which were concentrated in the southern mountainous areas of Songshan, and Chushan would directly incorporate these rebels. However, there were also some rebels who were willing to accept the command of Chushan but were not exposed. They should go from open to secret. They were responsible for better contacting other resistance forces in Songshan, forming a joint alliance of advance and retreat, first gaining a foothold in Songshan, and resisting the infiltration of the enemy's troops into the Songshan Mountain area.
It is best to talk about something else after completing this step.
This is mainly related to the fact that Songshan is not a complete topographic distribution.
The main mountain range of Songshan is divided into Xinmi and Dengfeng counties. The terrain is also divided into four areas: southern, western, central and northern by the Yingshui upper reaches of the river valley and the Xinmi fault basin.
The two cities of Xinmi, Dengfeng, which are currently controlled by the enemy, are located in the upper reaches of the Yingshui River and the Xinmi fault basin.
Chu Shan obviously has no ability to attack Xinmi at this time, and Dengfeng two cities,
If it is a surprise attack, the price of trying to defend is too high.
The resistance forces of Songshan were so complicated in the early stage, and the actions of Chushan were too great. Han Gui was worried that the enemy soldiers would use Xinmi to pass the two cities to seal the two cities and blockade. There were some backboneless clerk forces in the central, western and northern parts of Songshan, and they would probably be afraid of the bloody sweeping and choose to surrender to the enemy.
By then, Mount Chu may only maintain sufficient penetration and influence in the southern mountainous areas of Songshan at most. Han Gui feels that this should not be what Xu Huai likes to see.
Of course, Han Gui was also very cautious and knew that people like Xu Huai were famous at a young age and had made great contributions. He must be extremely confident. If he had made other arrangements on how to contact the rebels of Songshan tribes, sometimes he might not be able to listen to other people's suggestions.
"..." Xu Huai patiently listened to Han Gui's more detailed explanation of the situation of the rebels in Songshan, and said to Zhou Jing with a smile, "Mr. Han is extraordinary, you must carefully consider what Mr. Han said and formulate more detailed countermeasures..."
Contacting the resistance troops in Hehuai and other places and other rebellious forces, both openly and secretly, has always been the responsibility of the Military Information Cao. How to maintain infiltration of Songshan and strengthen the liaison and influence of the resistance troops of Songshan tribes is naturally Zhou Jing, Zhang Xiongshan and others continue to be responsible.
"Of course, we will definitely ask Mr. Han for detailed advice." Zhou Jing and Zhang Xiongshan said.
Xu Huai bowed to Han Guigong and said, "Chushan has no other vacancies for the time being, so he can only temporarily aggrieved Mr. Han to join the army in the journalism room by my side..."
The middle and lower-level military generals and civil servants who were recruited or recruited, Chushan was first thrown into the provincial school, and the samurai school was first given several rounds of short-term training, and then adapted at the junior high school or Yingwu level. After a period of time, they were promoted to the corresponding position for appointment.
In the recruitment of middle and senior officials, basically, the registration offices are added to the Battalion Chief History Academy or the Sima Academy, and other positions are directly arranged to participate in some auxiliary affairs at the headquarters. After they are familiar with the operation mechanism of Chushan, they will arrange more important and even stand alone.
People like Chen Zixiao, Zhang Xiongshan and others have also experienced such a transition period before they can truly integrate into Chushan.
When Shi Zhen saw that Xu Huai directly invited Han Kyu to serve in the camp to join the army, he obviously recognized Han Kyu's talent very much.
Shi Zhen thought that it was true that Han Gui's understanding and judgment of the resistance forces of the Songshan tribes did not seem to surpass that of the military intelligence, but this is enough to show his talent and ability.
When he was in Shuozhou, Xu Wuji was personally responsible for military spy, and then Zhou Jing took over. From beginning to end, including personnel selection, training and other operations were carried out under Xu Huai's direct attention. Even the many orders after the formal establishment of the Military Intelligence Cavalry were all led by Xu Huai himself.
The Ruying Battle was successfully carried out. In the early stage, the craftsmen surveyed the terrain, explored the intentions of the enemy in Chenzhou, and two thousand elite guards penetrated and penetrated from the defense line deployed by the enemy in Chenzhou along the Yingshui River, and lurked quietly in Yanling and other places. A series of fierce fighting military intelligence reconnaissance was followed until tens of thousands of enemy troops were successfully annihilated on the south bank of the Yingshui River, and military intelligence Cao made great contributions.
This also proves that the military intelligence Cao's series of methods of acting are extremely outstanding.
Han Gui's personal judgment and analysis of a complex matter, and being able to get close to the spy that lasted for more than a month by military information is enough to show his ability.
Of course, you can't take such a person lightly.
In Xu Huai and others' eyes, the positions of the record office and the military counselor are still idle positions of the subordinates, and multiple people can be appointed at the same time. However, the level of the Chushan camp is there, so the idle positions of the subordinates around Xu Huai are definitely not easy.
Han Gui did not have the arrogance of Chushan. In addition, he suffered repeated setbacks in the imperial examinations over the years and was in a chaotic world. He had no unrealistic feeling in his heart.
I even hoped that after I arrived in Chushan, I could find a letter office in the county government office in the township and county government office, and then I worked hard first.
Unexpectedly, he could actually do things directly by Xu Huai's side and have a formal and honest official position. How could he not be willing?
Han Gui couldn't help but bow to Seo Huai, and said in a stern voice: "But Han Gui is willing to serve the virtuous coach, and he is afraid that his strength will not be able to help him."
When Xu Huai learned that Han Gui's family had already been placed in Wuyang, he left Han Gui directly with him to serve. He first worked with Jiang Xie to handle various memorials and letters. Then he asked Wang Jun, Liu Yueting, and Han Qihu what plans were for returning from Songshan this time.
When the warriors and guards' personal camp came out, Xu Huai, who had great potential, was now placed in the military intelligence Cao for a period of time, and was familiar with the more complex military intelligence spy and analysis, but most people still had to be transferred from the military intelligence Cao.
The Tianxiong Army has now expanded to ten wings, which seems to be less than before, but the main soldiers have expanded three times compared to before the First Huai Shang Guard Battle, and the scale of military generals and military officials also needs to be expanded at least three times accordingly.
Compared with the first Huai Shang Guards, the size of the prefectures did not seem to increase, but the county (Duzhou Inspection Department) actually expanded four times, which means that under the military and horse supervision department, the county magistrates (Duzhou Inspection Department) who specifically led the soldiers of each city and the townships under their jurisdiction and the county magistrates (Duzhou Inspection Department) who were in charge of the organization and training of the townships under their jurisdiction also needed to be expanded four times accordingly.
Although the work of military information is extremely important, the Chushan camp has a more urgent desire for middle and high-level military generals; Wang Jun, Liu Yueting and Han Qihu performed extraordinaryly in the Ruying Battle and still had to be transferred to the military camp as generals, but the specific choice is given to them which army to go to the Tianxiong Army or to the Military Control Commission.
Of course, what was even more scarce at this time was the governors of various counties.
Zhaoling, Xiangcheng, Luoshan, Huangchuan, Queshan, Suiping and other counties are the periphery of the Huai Shang Defense Zone, mainly garrisons and semi-military organizations. The officials in charge basically have Xu Wujiang, Tang Pan, Xu Xin'an and other guards. However, nearly 400,000 military and civilians in Chushan are placed in the six deep counties such as Ye County, Wuyang, Wuju, Chushan, Huaiyuan, and Xinyang. If the normal county seat needs to be restored, it is too short of manpower.
At the camp level, the Zuo Changshi Academy and the Zuo Sima Academy also need to be filled in a large number of official positions before they can be operated.
Su Laochang and Shi Zhen were already very busy in charge of the affairs of the Battalion Chief and the Left Chief and the Left Chief and the Magistrate of Chushan and Wuyang; Tang Tiande, who was a military official from the Huaiyuan Inspection Department, and Cheng Yi, who was a postmaster of Huaiyuan Postmaster, were also appointed as the magistrate of Xinyang and Huaiyuan County.
More than two months after the Ruying Battle ended, the most troublesome thing was the complex and cumbersome personnel arrangements.
This is thanks to the accumulation of Chushan over the years and a group of direct generals and officials were trained. Although they were in a hurry and had various shortages of manpower, they could barely deal with it.
It is conceivable that traditional military generals like Yang Lin and Liu Yan are sometimes granted the power to control local military and political affairs, but if they do not want to completely get blind, they can only endure the scrupulousness of local scholastic officials or gentry clans. They cannot truly grasp local power by one or two smart and capable advisers.
Emperor Jianji was controlled by Zhou He, Gao Chunnian, Gu Fan and others in the court, and the truth was actually the same.
Emperor Jianji wanted to kick Zhou He, Gao Chunnian, Gu Fan and others away, and they would be paralyzed from the court to the local roads and counties.
As Wang Boqian and other generals from the Huai Palace entered the Xindu to take important positions, the entire court would further fall into the control of the original owner and faction.
