The warriors of Ding Haijun also led the military and political affairs at the local level, and were in charge of military households and private households. They had great authority. Under this policy, even the most ordinary soldiers also served as security chiefs and corps commanders, and were in charge of several houses of ordinary people.
, status is very high.
When soldiers are closely related to the people, the soldiers will have a strong desire to protect their families, and when the people see the status and treatment of the warriors, it can also trigger their longing for meritorious service on the battlefield.
When military generals reach the level of governing, with more than a few hundred officers and more than a thousand households under their control, the military and political affairs are separated again. The Government Affairs Department also dispatches corresponding officials to take charge of civil affairs, and implements dual policies for military households and households at lower levels.
manage.
In this way, the hundreds of soldiers, horses, and thousands of men under each commander's command form a basic unit. Those above him all command the envoys, but the scale is not fixed. Guo Ning depends on the situation.
, can dispatch various commanders or deputy capital commanders at any time to strengthen or weaken the six armies of each state's commander-in-chief and even the direct commander-in-chief's office.
For example, now, Han Xuan's headquarters, which is responsible for garrisoning Gaizhou, has been greatly strengthened.
Han Xuan was born in Changzhou, and was an old acquaintance of Guo Ning from the same hometown, and they fought side by side many times. This time, he used his iron cavalry to frustrate the Mongolian army on Huanglonggang, and killed thousands of Mongolian households in Hundugu, making him famous in Liaodong.
Great vibration.
He is the most reliable person to be in charge of Liaodong as the Liaohai Defense Envoy.
Moreover, when Han Xuan was in Changzhou, he was not a soldier of the ordinary garrison, but a descendant of the driving army of Wuyue Camp. The so-called driving troops were mostly the slaves of the Liao people who were spared in the early days of the country. They were always driven in front of them in every battle.
Hence the name. Therefore, Han Xuan was quite familiar with the ways of the foreign tribes in Northern Xinjiang and could also speak a few words in Khitan.
In Guo Ning's Dinghai Navy, a portion of the Sixth Army, the main force used for field operations, was allocated. However, Han Xuan's troops alone were not enough, so Guo Ning also transferred Xiao Mo Le's troops from Wang Shixian's command to enrich the troops.
Fuzhou.
Xiao Mo Le was a personal guard of Guo Ning. His ancestor was an official on Shangjing Road. He joined the army since he was a child. He was known as a strong and strong man during the fight with the Mongolian army. There were three generals under Xiao Mo Le, and Zhang Qian was
one of them.
Zhang Qian made great achievements in Liaodong during this trip, and his return to the state will definitely help Xiao Mo Le quickly control the situation in Fuzhou.
As for Pusu Liemeng, it naturally has its own unique role.
Previously, Pu Xianwannu gathered a huge force of eleven Meng'an in Xianping Mansion, and was able to suppress Yelvliu Ge from the west, and became the military and political leader of the Northeast interior. Even the imperial court wanted to appoint him as the Northeast Propaganda Envoy to appease him.
.Now although he is dead and defeated, there are still remnants of those fierce soldiers there.
Logically speaking, He Shi Liehuanduan, the successor of the Northeastern Xuanfu envoy, would recruit them as soon as possible, but who said that Guo Ning could not get some benefits from them?
In addition to Elevenmengan in Xianping Prefecture, there are thousands of barbarian tribes and hundreds of thousands of small tribes scattered in places such as Posu Road, Huli Gai Road, and Supin Road. These tribes may call themselves
The Jurchens, or another species of Goguryeo, and some who claim to be descendants of the Bohai Sea, are actually mostly savages who drink hair and drink blood.
Guo Ning and the Yili Chucai discussed that if they could tame a group of them and gradually move into the Central Plains, they could continue to enrich their military resources. Even if the deserts were wiped out in the future, they could serve as local labor force.
How to do it depends on Pu Sulie's ability. If he has the ability, the deputy defense envoy of Liaohai is just the beginning. Most of the senior officials around Guo Ning started their careers as pawns in a year or two. He uses people
Always bold.
Strictly speaking, Guo Ning's official status at this time was still the third-rank Dinghai Jiedu Envoy. He had never officially assumed the title of Shandong Xuanfu Envoy in order to avoid conflicts with Yang An'er.
According to the imperial court system, the generals directly under the Jiedushi were the seventh-grade capital commanders, and there was only one in number. However, Guo Ning's family appointed more than a dozen chief and deputy capital commanders, and they also included Ninghai Prefecture.
He was driven by the governor of Dengzhou as his subordinates.
At this moment, he created a fourth-grade defense envoy for Gai Zhousheng out of thin air. Such an appointment was extremely absurd, but no one present had any objections.
After all, Guo Ning made it clear that Feng Yu from the Internal Affairs Bureau had just drowned, and the emperor was about to give in. Why should the people below him care?
Nowadays, in the territory of Dajin, there are already princes who have established an independent country. Another warlord with strong military strength is nothing. As long as everyone is okay on the surface and does not fall out with the court, no one should care about the details.
And Guo Ning continued: "The number of troops for the Liaohai Defense Envoy is set at five thousand. You will be given one month to replenish your own troops. In addition, by the Mid-Autumn Festival at the latest, you must sign an army of 10,000 from the border of Liaodong.
Shipped to Shandong."
Xiao Molle and Pu Sulie looked at each other fiercely and obeyed the order sternly.
Guo Ning looked at the generals again: "After entering Xia, the local recruits from Shandong recruited at the end of last year have been trained almost. I heard that there are still people in Yinhu in various places who are eager to try and join the army. Then pass the order and post the recruitment list. The first to arrive
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will sign another 5,000 troops."
As soon as these words came out, Monk Luo, Li Ting and other important generals were all overjoyed. Ten thousand in Liaodong and five thousand in Shandong. These fifteen thousand recruits must be enriched in the generals' departments. In other words, the total number of soldiers in Shandong
There will be 25,000 elite soldiers for field battles. The number of subordinates such as Monk Luo will double in one go.
But some civil servants were surprised and stunned.
These officials knew the navy's fortunes better than the generals. After the war with the Mongolian army last year, the entire Shandong Province was in an extremely dilapidated state. Although Guo Ning extorted a lot of luggage, food and wages from the Mongols, the consumption was extremely high.
In the past few months, all kinds of construction projects have been carried out in the three prefectures of Denglai. Both money and food are being consumed like running water. The officials maintain the situation of burning oil to the outside world, but they know that their own old foundation has been destroyed many times.
It almost turned upside down, and it became increasingly dependent on the smuggling trade with the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties.
I originally planned to relax a little after this autumn harvest and live a prosperous life for a few months, but I never thought that the commander-in-chief would sign an army contract again?
In the past two months, the Dinghai Navy Mansion reopened the Xiyou and Hengcun Saltworks, using more than 5,000 people. They paid the people food and drink, and they were forced to move the magistrate to open a local wealthy family.
Private warehouses of big players.
If the army is signed on a large scale, financial and material resources will continue to be tense. It may even be more tense than before, because Fuzhou and Gaizhou are newly acquired. Officials need to be in place, local governments need to be appeased, and roads, bridges, and docks need to be repaired. It's also the time to spend money.
Could it be that Jieshuai is so eager to expand his troops on a large scale...
While everyone was guessing, Guo Ning laughed and said casually: "The larger the territory, the greater the number of troops. This is natural. You don't need to think too much about it. Generals, hurry up and recruit troops. The Chief Affairs Secretary must squeeze out money and food to support them. "
Someone wanted to ask a question, but saw Yi La Chucai already out of the queue: "As ordered!"
At that time, all the scribes were in attendance.
Guo Ning nodded and continued: "The next step is the appointment of government personnel. Haha, there are many talents from Liaodong here today. I am going to take this opportunity to..."
Just as he was talking about this, there was a thunderous sound of horse hooves outside the gate of Jieshuai's mansion.
Xu Jin suddenly stepped out of the queue and bowed: "Commander Jie, he is my man. I will go and ask."
Guo Ning waved his hand, and Xu Jin hurried out, then turned back quickly, and said a few words in Guo Ning's ear.
Guo Ning's expression remained unchanged, he thought for a moment, then stood up on the steps and said apologetically: "Everyone, there are some small things to disturb me today. Let's continue to announce the appointment tomorrow, okay?"
