Chapter 146: Thirty-three
Chapter 146 Three
"The one-legged salt administration ambassador!" Wu Liangmou smiled bitterly, feeling weak all over his body. It takes a price to get fame immediately, and 'A one general succeeds and thousands of bones are dry' is not a joke. People on this road may most of them become dry bones halfway, regardless of their origin or their bloodline.
"If you have time, go and tell Liuzi that if he doesn't want to be a salt administration ambassador for the rest of his life, he should be optimistic about himself and the people around him." He glanced at Liu Kui, who was smirking, and he added solemnly. His vicissitudes of expression seemed to be dozens of years older than the other party.
"I know, don't worry, Han Liuzi must know the right measure. He is not stupid!" Liu Kui smiled silly again and said perfunctorily. In his opinion, Governor Zhu handed over the position of the Salt Administration Ambassador to the Han family Xiaoliu, which obviously contained the taste of rewarding merits. As long as Han Liuzi didn't stretch his hands too long, even if he made some mistakes, he would turn a blind eye to the fact that he sacrificed himself to drill the gutter that day.
"Forget it, I'll go find him in person when I can stand up and walk around one day!" Wu Liangmou waved his hand and looked helpless.
This is not a question of whether one is dependent on one's personality, but a question of whether one has a mind and vision. Zuo Jun currently has few scholars, and he also counts the group of teenagers who were sent to the army by his family that day, which is in the fifties and sixty. Many of them are barely able to read and have never attended any private schools or official schools.
This destined that even if everyone cannot make achievements in the army, they will get a good position in Huai'an City. After all, everyone is the team that followed the governor early and has some loyalty.
But this innate advantage can only continue to the present. After conquering Huai'an, the Zuo Army quickly improved dozens of steps, regardless of its own strength or future prospects. The embarrassing situation in which the other party refused to buy into the scholars will never be returned. In a short period of time, there may be many heroes and famous people who are not satisfied with the court who are already very dissatisfied with the court. At this time, if someone still shows off his old qualifications without opening his eyes, it means that he can't get along with him. Even if Governor Zhu doesn't pursue his previous contributions, he will be extremely disappointed with such a person. And the position that this person has made in the Governor's heart will soon be filled with by new young talents.
"I heard from my grandfather that the governor was preparing to vacate the house of Dalu Huai'an and use it as a Jixian Pavilion." Liu Kui didn't quite understand what Wu Liangmou said, but it did not mean that others could not understand. At least, Shi Lu Deshan, the chief of the Fifth Army, understood Wu Liangmou's hint, smiled, and whispered, "It turns out that the academic government abandoned by the court is said to have to be packed up again. The school museums at the fourth level of the road, prefecture, prefecture, and county have been vacated, and are now hiring a large sum of teachers. Some time ago, Mr. Su sent someone to Yangzhou to secretly recruit some people, and recently, some people have also come here. Depending on the situation, the governor planned to assess each of them's abilities and then use them!"
Speaking of this, Liu Kui finally understood the taste a little, raised his eyes and said with dissatisfaction, "Are you here to be an official? These guys don't come early or late, but they really know how to pick things up!"
"What's this?!" Perhaps he felt a little external challenge. Lu Deshan glanced at him and said, "But it's Huai'an! You can wait and see! When we take Gaoyou, Yangzhou, or the army goes south to Liangzhe, there are more scholars who come to join us. That's the nest. The imperial examinations of the court have not been held once every few years, and it may not be possible to give a way out if you pass the exam. Over the years, scholars have been almost crazy. As long as our Zuo Army has maintained the current momentum of winning every battle, even if we don't pay a penny, the scholars who come to serve will have to squeeze through the city gate. If you don't believe it, wait and see!"
"Look, I don't believe that they can all climb up to me!" Liu Kui's unyielding spirit was immediately aroused, and he curled his lips and shouted, "What's wrong with reading more, reading more? I'm not ignorant! Haha, I have not only studied, but also crawled into the gutter, but I'm also afraid that they will be poor! You two are busy first, so I'll wake up Xiao Liuzi now! Let him take care of himself, and don't lose our manly face in the future!"
After saying that, I was no longer in the mood to explain to Wu Liangmou what the Zuo Jun had changed in the recent period. I turned around and ran away like a flying one.
"This kid!" Looking at his panicked back, Wu Liangmou and Lu Deshan shook their heads and smiled. After laughing, they felt a hint of pressure.
It is actually not as qualified as a newcomer. When he was suddenly placed in the position of the chief general and the chief of the army, there would definitely be many eyes staring at him, and he would definitely become the early target of the newcomers. Especially Lu Deshan, many people would probably think that his ability to take the position of the chief of the chief was entirely due to his grandfather's credit, and he did not have any real ability.
Thinking of facing many challenges together in the future, Lu Lu took the initiative to walk to the sickbed and smiled and tentatively, "Lu is not engaged in military affairs. If there is any incompleteness in his work in the future, please give General Wu a good advice!"
"Tell me a lot! Wu knows so much more than you can!" Wu Liangmou immediately laughed and waved his hand, "Brother Lu, don't say polite words. Let's discuss it and try not to let the governor down."
"Of course!" Lu Deshan also laughed and nodded knowingly. "The governor specially arranged us together, and it must be of this kind of meaning!"
"I guess that's the same! Otherwise, wouldn't it be much easier to send a veteran to the Fifth Army?" Wu Liangmou nodded and continued to add with a smile.
There were originally some signs of mutual competition between him and Lu Deshan in Zhu Bashiyi's shogunate. However, at this stage, the previous competitions could no longer be taken seriously. Now, for the two, it is more important to work together and make some achievements as soon as possible. In this way, the snooping intention of those who are not convinced outside and truly gain a foothold in the Fifth Army. Wu Liangmou understood this in his heart, and Lu Deshan understood it even more.
When two smart people were together, many of them were just a little clear. Soon, the two became familiar with each other, and the topics they talked about quickly changed from outside to the construction of the Fifth Army itself.
The airs have been set up, and the middle and low-level officers were selected from the previous combat soldiers, with the general quota set at about 6,500, and the warriors and auxiliary soldiers each had a brigade. These items were all decided long ago, and the two had nothing to change, so they no longer waste their energy. In this way, what is convenient for showing their own abilities in a short time can only be based on the speed of the new army's combat power formation and the strength of the combat power. In this regard, the two talked a few words and quickly reached an agreement.
"I don't know if General Wu discovered it. Although the method of the governor's training of the new army was said to be from the Tang system, it was very different from the Tang system?!" After discovering that Wu Liangmou's thinking was similar to that of him, Lu Deshan quickly brought the topic to the point.
"Don't always be General Wu, General Wu! Wu is older, and in private, you and I might as well be brothers!" Wu Liangmou corrected it quickly first, then nodded with a smile, "From the introductions between you and Liu Huanwu just now, Brother Yu did feel some changes. He was born in the Tang system, but he was much more refined than the Tang system. In short, it is very different from the Mongolian and Yuan court!"
Not only the Tang Dynasty, but also the Central Plains dynasties, the military system was much more refined than the current Mongolian Yuan. Taking the early system of government troops as an example, there were regiments under the Zhechong Mansion, with 200 people per regiment; there were brigades under the regiment, with 100 people per brigade; there were teams under the brigades, with 50 people per brigade; there were fires under the brigades, with 100 people per brigade; there were fires under the brigades, with 100 people per brigades. There were sometimes even troops under the brigades, with five people per brigades, which were the smallest and most basic combat units.
It is unprecedented to be as rough as the Mongolian and Yuan army system. But they defeated the Southern Song Dynasty and swept across the Jurchens and Dangxiang, which is indeed magical.
"The Mongols are illiterate!" Encouraged by Wu Liangmou's words, Lu Deshan smiled and continued to add, "So the rough military system of ten thousand, thousands, hundreds, and ten is tailor-made for them. When I saw that the governor had been asking the gentleman to teach the soldiers to study, I was probably preparing for it at that time!"
"The governor's plan is far from yours, and I can't see you or I!" Wu Liang praised him in a bad manner, then smiled and nodded, indicating that Lu Deshan would say anything directly.
But Lu Deshan did not do as he asked, but thought for a while before continuing to ask, "In addition to the many levels of the new military system, he also paid special attention to the three-in-one meetings. I wonder if Brother Wu has ever noticed it?"
"I know this!" Wu Liangmou had a deep understanding of this, and lay on the bed and waved his hand with a smile, "It is mainly for the convenience of command. To be honest, during the war, a thousand-man troupe claimed that there were ten hundred teams around him. In fact, if you can call five, it would be too far. Usually, you can only control three. One of his positions, one on the left, one on the right, and the others were completely resistant to the eyes of the centurion! When he had good eyes, he found that the situation changed, and immediately led his brothers to follow him. He had bad eyes, and his thousand-man troupes were all going to the front, and his hundred people were still scattering sheep behind. It would not have any effect at all!"
"This, Brother Wu said very well. But he may not have guessed the governor's thoughts!" Lu Deshan quickly took over the conversation and whispered a reminder.
"What? Could it be that Brother Lu can see other clues?! Let's talk about it, let's talk about it together!" Wu Liangmou was a little unhappy at first, and then he thought that there was a Lu Luzeng behind Lu Deshan, and the news was much more informative than himself. He smiled and gave orders very modestly.
"Dare not obeying!" Lu Deshan wanted this sentence, and gently bowed his hand and continued to add: "According to my guess, the governor's implementation of three-in-one organization in the new army is probably for the firearm. You and my brother want to make achievements, and they may have to land on this firearm! If that thing is taken out separately, even the artillery will be difficult to exert its power. But if it can be formed into a suitable array, it cannot be said that it is invincible. The same forces are in conflict, and they will definitely not lose to others!"
Note: There is only one update today, so don’t wait. There is no way, some things are in a hurry to deal with, sorry.
Note 2: I saw some readers questioning the three-three system. In fact, what is not important is the kind that suits you most. For cavalry outside the Frontier, after the horses rushed, they can naturally remain in groups. Therefore, the rough system of ten thousand, thousands, hundreds, and ten is just right. The more complex the types of troops, the higher the requirements for cooperation between each other, the more detailed the organization needs to be divided. Otherwise, in an era when communications basically rely on roar, it is destined to be a tragedy.
