Chapter 50 Rearing the Armament
As soon as He Bai entered the mansion, Ding Yuan shouted in the forefront: "Emperor He Duwei, it has been nearly half a year since you took office as the Taiyuan Duwei in April. Why hasn't you completely eliminated the horse thieves in the county? This time, more than 200 people in the Ma Yi clan of my brother were killed by the thief..."
He Bai felt awkward when he heard this. Ding Yuan wanted to divert his gaze and clear his suspicion. But that's fine, Ma Xueer should be fine if he was not a big deal. That day, Ma Xueer rushed to the governor's mansion, and He Bai was secretly worried about her.
He Bai rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Governor Ding, your words are unreasonable. When I first arrived in Taiyuan County, Jinyang City had only a mere 500 guards. A certain force conquered 5,000 soldiers in the county. He defeated a 30,000 Baibo thief with a newly trained army in just half a month and scared away another thief. The Baibo thief was retreating, so you seized my military power and went to Yanmen County. Although He was in the county, he had no soldiers in his hands. It was not enough to defend the county with his family. How could he have the time to deal with the matter of horse thieves?"
Ding Yuan patted the table and said angrily: "It has been twenty days since I returned from Yanmen County and led the army back to Jinyang City. Why do you still not see any movement?"
Let the newly trained soldiers be the vanguard, He Bai was furious when he thought of this. He couldn't help but step forward and pointed at Ding Yuan's nose and cursed: "Ding Jianyang, more than half of my five thousand new soldiers were killed or injured by your battle. All the people of Taiyuan are so sad and crying. You don't care about the pensions of the dead and injured soldiers, I'm He Bai. I've been doing this for the past twenty days."
"It's Governor Ding that you have 30,000 troops in your hand. The court ordered you to come to Bingzhou, but it's not just a matter of dealing with the Southern Xiongnu. As the Governor, you also have a heavy responsibility for the affairs of this stable place. Can't your 30,000 troops be just a decoration?"
Ding Yuan blushed and said, "The army fought hard with the Southern Xiongnu for several months, and was already exhausted, but they were afraid that the morale of the army would be unstable, so they were inconvenient to use it. In August, the emperor built eight lieutenants in Xiyuan in Luoyang. The elite troops were insufficient, and he summoned all the athletes from all over the world to the guards. Since receiving the order, I have been busy with this matter in the past twenty days and have picked up more than a thousand athletes. The day before yesterday, he ordered Zhang Yang to lead Wang Luoyang away..."
It turned out that in August, Emperor Ling of Han began to set up the eight lieutenants of the Xiyuan Shangjun, the middle army, the lower army, the left, the left, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, the right, Jian Shuo of Xiaohuangmen was the upper army, Yuan Shao of the Hu Ben was the middle army, Bao Hong of the Tunqian lieutenant, Bao Cao of the lower army, Cao Rong of the Dianjun, Zhao Rong was the left lieutenant, Feng Fang was the right lieutenant, the counselor Xia Mou was the left lieutenant, and Chunyu Qiong was the right lieutenant. All the eight lieutenants were in charge of Jian Shuo.
He Bai remembered that this happened in history. The eight lieutenants of Xiyuan were originally set up by Emperor Ling of Han to divide the military power of General He Jin, so as to prepare for the future Emperor Xian of Han to inherit the position of emperor. However, Emperor Ling of Han had no one in his hands. Except for a little Huangmen Jian Shuo, everyone else was a party of He Jin who was obedient. Tens of thousands of Xiyuan troops eventually became the soldiers of General He Jin.
Ding Yuan seemed to have ordered Zhang Yang to lead more than a thousand elite soldiers to Jian Shuo, and Zhang Yang was also appointed by Jian Shuo as the Sima of the temporary army of the upper army. In this way, Ding Yuan was originally on the side of the emperor. However, when Emperor Ling of Han died, He Jin took power. Ding Yuan was busy summoning Zhang Liao to work in order to take the elite soldiers to Kyoto and obey orders to He Jin. In this way, Ding Yuan was not loyal to him, and was also a complete speculator.
Ding Yuan said: "It seems that it is not a big mistake for my brother Ma Yi. It is just that the horse thieves are rampant and actually do such a great evil thing. I vow to repay this hatred. He Duwei, since you are the commander of Taiyuan County and are in charge of the security of a county, you are now in charge of all the thieves in the county. If you need help from a large army, you can come and find me."
"However, although the Southern Xiongnu were pacified, the Baibo thieves became more and more intense in Hedong. Although the Bingzhou army had only experienced a great war, the court may also issue an order in the near future to lead the army to Hedong to wipe out the Baibo thieves. The Taiyuan County suppression of the thieves will be fully responsible..."
He also said that he would help the army, and that he would attack the Baibo thieves in Hedong, but he would not send out a soldier. It seems that this matter was indeed for Ma Xueer to see. He also needs to ask Ma Xueer to understand what was going on.
However, the extermination of bandits and bandits from all over the country is of great benefit to the security of Taiyuan County and its own reputation. He Bai did not refuse and immediately issued this order. He bowed and replied: "Small thieves will be eliminated in each county, and the large thieves will go to fight the extermination. I hope the governor will sit in Jinyang with peace of mind."
Having said that, He Baike didn't know which bandits and bandits were there in Taiyuan County, so he ordered the county magistrates to report the thieves in the county. He also sent martial blood cavalry to investigate the thieves in person in person in order to prepare for the troops.
Then he ordered his subordinates to write a notice from the Taiyuan Duwei, which wrote a letter saying that any crimes committed by three people in a group were all for death. It was the beginning of October. If a person surrendered to the county government within the month, he could reduce the crime by half and be punished with a lighter punishment. If someone resisted stubbornly, he would be captured when sending troops to suppress the thieves, he would be killed on the spot without any mercy.
This order is only aimed at small groups of thieves, and large groups of thieves will not pay attention to He Bai's order. Therefore, He Bai did not really wait until November to send troops. He only planned to report all the thieves in each county in five days, and then decided to set the day to send troops.
In the army camp outside the city, He Bai'an sat in the middle of the main tent, and each of his subordinates sat on each side of Fu Xing, Chengzhang, Yu Hua, Cheng Qi, Che Jing, Lu Ping and Dian Wei were not in the camp.
It was concluded that Xiaoman had a ricket-backed chondrosy disease. The prescription prescribed by the quack doctor also had certain effects, but it was not entirely a quack doctor, but it was not very effective. It was just that the medicine was rare. Apart from the fierce men like Brother Dian Wei, even if there were wealthy families in the world, it was difficult to find hundreds of pairs of tiger bone medicine to attract.
After conclusion, it was concluded that as long as he was treated, Xiaoman could return to normal after two or three years. Brother Dian Wei was concerned about Xiaoman's health, He Bai did not ask Dian Wei to send troops to fight against the thieves. Besides, for mere thieves, why do you need a powerful general like Dian Wei to take action? You only need the number of generals under your command to solve the problem.
But He Bai felt sad when he looked at his mere generals or the nameless generals in history. As soon as he traveled to the Three Kingdoms era, the super powerful generals, famous generals and super counselors in his hands were captured in advance.
As for myself, except Brother Dian Wei, there was no one. They were all inferior generals with a value of between five, six or seventy, and only a few people. They were battalion commanders with hundreds of people, and they had more troops. Even the commander of the army was not in command.
After hearing this, He Bai nodded silently. For the combat effectiveness of the army, He Bai arranged one or two deputy positions in the team, and there were professors and staff above the Qu, with the purpose of being able to have more experienced generals in command during the war. If the chief officer unfortunately died, the army would not be defeated because of it. Under the leadership of the deputy, professors and staff and other generals, he could continue to fight.
