The Tokyo Garrison is nominally in charge of all the military offices in the Guanzhong area, and this is actually the case. Yang Ming currently has absolute mobilization rights over the Sixteenth Guards.
Shi Wansui did not follow Yang Guang to Luoyang because Yang Guang felt disappointed when he saw him. People with orthodox military general background are not good at flattering. Shi Wansui didn't even flatter Yang Jian, let alone Yang Guang.
The establishment of Zuotun Guards is maintained at 24,000 people all year round. In addition to the 6,000 people on duty in the capital, there are 18,000 people in the military camp.
The defense of the capital has always been divided equally among the sixteen guards. This time Yang Guang went to Luoyang and directly took away more than 60,000 people from the Zuo Yiwei and Youyiwei. In other words, the current imperial city is half empty, with only the left and right prison gates.
There are more than 20,000 people in the mansion and more than 10,000 people led by the left and right guards of the East Palace.
As for the Left and Right Preparations, there was a decree from Yang Guang from Luoyang, ordering them to go to Luoyang, which meant that more than 40,000 people were transferred away.
So Yang Ming simply transferred all of Shi Wansui's Zuotun guards to the capital to reinforce the capital's garrison.
General Youwuwei, after Yang Ming took the initiative to give it up, now belongs to the acting king Yang You, a little kid less than two years old. Originally, the East Palace had intended to deploy people to actually control Youwuwei, but when Yang
After Zhao passed away, he could no longer be installed.
Because the two generals of Youwuwei, Li Jing and Zhou Fashang, are Yang Ming's people, they deliberately delayed their efforts, and there was nothing the East Palace could do. After all, Yang Zhao was gone, and Yang You also followed his mother-in-law Wei.
Ying went to Luoyang.
On this day, Yang Ming called Li Jing and Zhou Fashang to the Prince of Qin's Mansion.
"Youwuwei was taken over by me from the anti-king Yang Liang. After the restructuring, I still held both positions. For some reason, I had to give it up temporarily, but you two must understand that I don't allow anyone to
I want to get involved in Youwuwei, but I can't come forward, so you two have to check this for me."
"Don't worry, Your Highness," Zhou Fashang said first: "The people who were originally arranged to come in by the East Palace, their humble position has alienated them and arranged some dispensable things for them to do. At the critical moment, they will not have any effect."
Zhou Fashang was originally the Marquis of Shanyin County in Nanchen and General Zhenyi, but he had always had conflicts with the then King of Changsha, Chen Shujian, and was accused of treason by his father, Emperor Chen Xuandi, Chen Xu.
As a last resort, Zhou Fashang defected to the Northern Zhou Dynasty. After the founding of the Sui Dynasty, he followed Qin King Yang Jun to the south to destroy Chen.
There is a rather embarrassing problem right now, that is, Chen Shujian is Chen Shuyi's uncle, and Chen Shuyi is trying to find a way to get Chen Shujian to return to Daxing.
In fact, Chen Shujian changed his name a long time ago and is now called Chen Shuxian. As for whose name he is avoiding, you can tell at a glance.
And there is another problem. Pei Ju is a little unhappy with Zhou Fa.
This is related to Zhou Fashang's character. He is almost a miniature version of Shi Wansui. He is an upright person and can easily offend people with his words.
In fact, Yang Ming can safely use such a person because he has no backing and has offended many people. It is very suitable for him to protect him and use him for his own use.
At this time, Li Jing also said: "As for the Youwu Guard, your Highness does not need to worry. General Zhou and I have a very tacit understanding, and there will be no problems in any subtlety."
Li Jing can be where he is today, all because of Yang Ming. He is a pure member of the King of Qin, and everything he does is to protect Yang Ming's interests.
Now that the prince has passed away, everyone knows that King Qin will stand up and fight. At this time, Li Jing does not dare to be careless in the slightest.
Yang Ming nodded and said: "Pei Ju has already received news. Tiele has agreed to cooperate with the Sui Dynasty to attack Tuguhun, but it is not the time now. We need to wait for another year. I will take the initiative to ask for a fight when the time comes. You two
be prepared."
Zhou Fashang nodded quickly: "I am willing to lead the horse and whip for His Highness."
Li Jing also nodded quickly.
After seeing the two of them off, Yang Ming went to the study again and met the master, Shi Wansui, who had been waiting for a long time.
"You know I'm a big boss, and you still arrange for me to stay in a place like the study?" Shi Wansui saw Yang Ming and said, "Don't you know I get a headache when I see books?"
Yang Ming ordered the maid to bring some wine and food, and sat down to drink with Shi Wansui.
"If there is any problem with your Zuotunwei, please tell me as soon as possible so that I can solve it as soon as possible."
Shi Wansui is a straight person, but he is not stupid. It is impossible for a stupid person to achieve such feats. He smiled and said:
"In the past, the Zuo Tun Guards were all my people from top to bottom, but now, among the two generals, Zhang Dinghe is my people, but that Mai Tiezhang is a bit complicated."
Yang Ming nodded. Mai Tiezhang was from Nanchen and was a serious green forest bandit. However, by chance, he became Chen Shubao's bodyguard and was mainly responsible for holding an umbrella for Chen Shubao.
After the Sui Dynasty destroyed Chen, Mai Tiezhang followed Yang Su. When Yang Suping rebelled against Jiangnan, he took him with him. Therefore, he made great achievements and was recommended by Yang Su to the third division of Yitong. Later, he followed Yang Su to fight against the Turks.
He was granted the title of Shangkaifu Yitong Third Division.
It seems that this person should be a member of Yang Su, but Mai Tiezhang only recognized Yang Su. Once Yang Su died, he had no contact with the Yue Gong Mansion.
Because Mai Tiezhang was illiterate and a pure fool, he did not understand that after Yang Su's death, he should continue to be attached to the Hongnong Yang family.
It was precisely because of this characteristic that Yang Guang valued him and appointed him General Zuotunwei.
Of course, there is another story in this story. After Yang Su passed away, Mai Tiezhang took a stick and waited for Liang Bi on his way home. He attacked the entire convoy and forcibly pulled Liang Bi off the carriage.
Just beat the opponent violently.
If he hadn't been caught by Qiu He, the Zuoyu general who happened to be passing by, and stopped him, Liang Pi wouldn't have been able to escape after being beaten.
Of course, the matter also reached the court meeting, but Yang Guang felt that this reckless man was loyal to Yang Su but not loyal to Yue Gongfang, so he was a useful person, so he gave him a small punishment and reused him.
In other words, Mai Tiezhang now belongs to Yang Guang.
Yang Ming couldn't adjust to such a person unless he promoted him to someone else.
After thinking about it, Yang Ming said: "Nowadays, Tuguhun frequently invades the border. Pei Ju thinks that he should endure it again and again. However, the losses in the border counties are huge. I think it is better to transfer Mai Tiezhang to Zhangye to help Pei Ju defend the western border."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Shi Wansui said: "Just don't take away the soldiers and horses of my Zuo Tun Guard. Besides, those bastards under Zuo Tun Guard are all my people. They
It can’t be moved at all.”
"It's easy to say, I will take 3,000 people from other military mansions and give them to him," Yang Ming nodded: "Including his own private soldiers, there should be 4,000 people, and Zhangye also has a garrison, which is enough.
What Pei Ju meant was to resist without counterattack, and to make a gesture to show to other foreign states, so that the Sui Dynasty would be justified in sending troops in the future."
"There is no one more suitable than Pei Ju to do such an insidious thing," Shi Wansui said with a smile: "But since you want the Mai Tiezhang to leave my Zuotunwei, you need to say hello to Pei Ju. A small effort will make a big effort.
Forget it, take people away."
"It's natural,"
The master and apprentice looked at each other and laughed.
Among the Sixteen Guards, there are two military mansions, which are made of a piece of stone. The two generals cannot be replaced unless they die, because these two people have been in control of the military mansion for too long, from the reign of Emperor Kaihuang to the present.
One is Shi Wansui's left guard, and the other is He Ruobi's right guard.
The two generals Zheng Yuanshou and Wei Baoluan who were inserted into the right guard by Yang Guang were almost just decorations and were directly ignored by He Ruobi. Yang Guang was very dissatisfied with this, but he had nothing to do.
He Ruobi's refusal to delegate power was also a major factor in his subsequent murder.
The emperor's intention to reorganize the Sixteenth Guards is already obvious. If you don't know, you are digging your own grave.
Next, Yang Ming has one more thing to do.
That is to say, the five thousand private soldiers under Xiao Mohe were whitewashed. The Hedong Military Mansion lost some of them when they conquered Yang Liang, especially at Pujin Pass, which was a heavy loss.
The rest followed Li Jing to Hebei and Shandong, and some were lost. When the Sixteenth Guards were reorganized, the Hedong Military Mansion was incorporated into He Ruobi's right guard.
Fortunately, there is a king in Hedong, Yang Ming's son Yang Rui, so he still has control over the local military government.
But if Yang Ming wants to adjust the Hedong Military Mansion, he has to say hello to He Ruobi, because this person is very narrow-minded.
"Today's Hedong Military Mansion has less than half of its former strength. I also know that it is the Crown Prince's territory, so I have not recruited guards. Is Your Highness planning to arrange some people? In fact, there is no need to say hello to me."
In the Song Dynasty Duke's Mansion, He Ruobi welcomed Yang Ming into the mansion. The reason why he did not go to Luoyang was exactly the same as Shi Wansui. Yang Guang couldn't eat when he saw him.
Yang Ming smiled and said: "What did Song Guogong say? You are always the founding father of the country. I need to ask you for advice on many things. Now that I plan to change to a hussar general, I naturally want to inform you."
The Military Mansion was first called Zhechong Mansion, and later changed to Hussar Mansion, and its commander was General Hussar.
He Ruobi likes to be held up by others the most, and Yang Ming has already figured him out.
It feels good to be taken seriously, so He Ruobi smiled and said:
"Your Highness can do whatever you want regarding Hedong's affairs. I will never interfere."
Yang Ming said with a smile: "The matter needs to be made clear. I have always respected Song Guogong. Now that Yue Gong has passed away, you will have to take more care of national affairs."
"This is natural." He Ruobi stroked his beard and smiled.
He is also a talkative person, and rarely communicates with Yang Ming on weekdays. Now that the conversation started, the two of them chatted endlessly.
The general of the cavalry must be Xiao Maha. At the same time, he will also serve as the Sima of the Hedong Palace. The five thousand private soldiers were originally bandits, but now Yang Yinjiang will find a way to incorporate them into the Hedong household registration. In this way
, the fields can be divided, and there is no need to rely on money from the Qin Palace to support them.
If you are incorporated into the military government again, you will be completely cleared.
These are Yang Ming's real private soldiers. Most of those in Prince Qin's palace are Yang Guang's people, and Yang Ming will not trust them absolutely.
It solved Xiao Mohe's problem and saved the palace a lot of expenses. As for the Xiangyang navy, this is also easy to handle.
Yang Ming is now in charge of government affairs in the capital and has the authority to appropriate funds. He has already informed Du Zha, the prefect of Xiangyang, and asked him to submit the navy's budget. He will coordinate with the Ministry of Civil Affairs for approval.
Spend the country's money to raise your own soldiers.
