Listening to Dong Mao talking about Sanming in Xiliang, Dong Hu nodded in agreement.

"My uncle seemed to have suffered a disaster due to Duan Yan, but in fact it was Zhang Huan, the general of the Huns. If Zhang Huan had not led 50,000 troops back to Beijing to force the general Dou Wu to death, he would not have been abusive to the civil and military officials of the foreign court. Later, Zhang Huan resigned and retired and hated the eunuchs of the inner court."

"Zhang Huan offended all the internal and external courts. If he hadn't opened his door to teach disciples in Huayin County, if he had not accepted more than a thousand disciples, countless Qingliu Party members who died just because of General Dou Wu and Grand Tutor Chen Fan, even if Zhang Huan ran back to his ancestral Dunhuang County, he would not have been able to survive!"

"It is precisely because of this relationship that Sima Yinduan, the uncle, was also unlucky at that time, but his uncle was recommended to Zhang Huan by Duan Yan. Duan Yan defected to the grandfathers of the inner court again, and his uncle was still able to work in the Western Regions. When Duan Yan died in prison, and Xia Yu and Tian Yan were defeated in Mobei, the civil and military officials of the foreign court also had the opportunity to clean up Duan Yan's wings. Wouldn't his uncle be unlucky again?"

Dong Hu sighed and said, "My uncle will be trusted by everyone for the time being. This expedition to Hehuang Qiang will definitely not choose Zhang Huan. Duan Yi's general, who can choose?"

"Over the years, there are only a few people who can fight, one is Zhang Huan, Duan Yan, and the generals under their name. The other is Huangfu Gui's nephew, Huangfu Song, who guards Beidi County. The third is Lu Zhi, who pacified the Jiujiang barbarians, and the fourth is Zhu Yan, who pacified the Jiaozhou barbarians. As for the rebellion of the Sichuan and Shu barbarians... it was not a pacification by force, but the court reduced taxes and labor to quell public grievances."

Dong Hu looked at the two of them.

"In recent years, our Han Dynasty has suppressed the war and chaos, and these are the generals."

"Jiaozhou is the southernmost part of our dynasty. Although Lu Zhi was born in the border area of ​​Youzhou, the one who did not say that he was pacified was the Jiujiang Shanlinman. The Shanlinman is different from the Qiang and Hu who rode horses and attacked. The Xianbei people in the north of Youzhou alone are very different from the Hehuang Qiang."

"Lu Zhi and Zhu Jun are not suitable. The barbarians they pacified are all mountain barbarians, and they have no prestige among the Qiang people... or lack of deterrence, but the northern county Huangfu Song is different. There are many Eastern Qiang tribes in the northern county, and coupled with his uncle Huangfugui's earlier outstanding military achievements, it is not difficult to infer that they want to gain the support of civil and military officials of the foreign court."

Dong Hu looked at Dong Mao who was nodding slowly and smiled bitterly: "If my uncle was to fight for the commander, then there was no need to say much. He was his own son and would definitely not treat us badly, but if Huangfu Song was the commander... the eldest son should know that one mountain could not accommodate two tigers, and he was both the general of the Western Army. His uncle's qualifications in the army were far more profound than Huangfu Song. If Huangfu Song was the commander, he would definitely suppress his uncle intentionally or unintentionally. What should we do at that time?"

"Let your uncle support us? That will only make Huangfu Song suppress his uncle even more. Only Prefect Li can help us. Even if Huangfu Song is the leader of the army, he has to give Prefect Li three points of face. Who made Longxi County the rear of the army going to fight!"

Dong Mao smiled and said, "You guy is right. The most likely thing to quell the rebellion is Huangfu Song. This is normal, but the struggle between the inside and outside the court is particularly fierce. It is really hard to say that the generals lead the troops, but no matter what, it is good to find more retreats."

Dong Hu scratched his head again and said, "What the eldest son said is that the eldest son is the son-in-law of Li Taishou. If his son-in-law has difficulties, how can he not do his best? But if Huwa regards the eldest son as a puppet, how could Li Taishou be cheaper for the outsider Huwa?"

“…”

Hua Xiong was speechless, but Dong Mao smiled and nodded, very satisfied with the boy's sincerity, and was also shocked by his impenetrable plot.

"You boy..."

"well……"

Hua Xiong was stunned and didn't understand why Dong Mao sighed. Instead, Dong Hu seemed to know the reason and scratched his head and said, "Thuwa has no great ambitions. He is satisfied if he can support the group of brothers and sisters behind him."

"Besides... Huwa beat Dong Huang, Niu Fu, Li Jue, Guo Si and others. If he followed his uncle's butt, wouldn't they wear our little shoes every day?"

Dong Mao pointed at the muddy boy...

"You...you are just a fool without ambitions!"

"If you don't have great ambitions, you won't have great ambitions. If you follow the eldest son, you can still have some food to eat..."

"Jiu Ya, I'll give the eldest son another bowl of soup!"

Dong Hu turned around and shouted to a little girl. Dong Mao was both regretful and moved when he saw it. He knew why the humble boy beat Dong Huang and why he had a conflict with his father's generals. The more he knew, the more he was moved, the more he felt sorry.

People with normal legs and feet will not feel the sorrow and desire of being a useless person since childhood, their biological father, mother... and even the lowest slave in the family. No one respects him since childhood, who can feel the sorrow?

No one cares. He respects a disabled person, and a young man who should have been extremely noble in Lintao, but even the servants in the family look at him coldly. However, Dong Hu is extremely respectful to him, and even beats Dong Huang and beats up a group of generals that Dong Huang finds.

Dong Mao knew that Dong Hu was close to him because he was always short of food, but why couldn’t Dong Huang take out some money and grain?

If it weren't for not meeting Dong Mao, Hua Xiong and Dong Hu, they could have finished three or two bowls of rice in just a few seconds. Because of their reasons, a meal took only half an hour.

The three of them got up earlier, perhaps because they didn't eat money because they didn't eat anything for free. Before the three of them finished their meals, the mercenaries who had never eaten breakfast came to the shop with wooden bowls to eat. Hundreds of people got up and clamored, like eating a big mat, and could be lined up from the street to the end of the street.

On the first day of the military training, Dong Hu didn't care much about chaos. He drank soup if he didn't have enough mutton and miscellaneous food, and ate naan bread if he didn't have enough soup. He didn't have enough tables, chairs and benches, so he squatted on the side of the road and lined up for hundreds of meters...

Dong Hu seemed to have planned that the recruited mercenaries would come to eat for free. After eating his fill, he personally took the spoon and carried a large wooden barrel to add soup to the soldiers squatting on the roadside. He would laugh and scold him from time to time, making a few jokes, and Hua Xiong shook his head...

Perhaps Dong Mao could not help but smile when he saw Hua Xiong shook his head and sighing repeatedly, "General Hua Xiong doesn't think the generals of the first army should be like this?"

Hua Xiong sighed, "Good but not powerful will make people not afraid, and they will eventually feel inappropriate."

Dong Mao smiled and said, "The mercenaries had no salary, no swords, guns, and no hope of promotion to the court... nothing was left."

"How can they act as a result of grace?"

Hua Xiong was stunned, and had to smile bitterly and admit that there was nothing except the half-full of food for one person...

Strict military law?

Today, if you dare to put on a pig's nose, you will pretend to be an elephant, and tomorrow you will be gone without a trace!

But if you don’t have strict military laws, how can you lead the army?

Hua Xiong was so worried, but Dong Hu didn't care at all. He carried the wooden barrel back and forth to call the man to add soup to every "tiger baby"...

"Thuwa, add another naan bread to Uncle Dashan!"

Dong Hu threw a piece of naan bread into the man's arms.

"Uncle Dashan, you have always eaten military food. If you leave the military camp, you can mess around, but if you enter the military camp, you are not allowed to bully our tiger kids with age or something."

Yao Shan took a bite of the naan bread and said dissatisfiedly: "Uncle Dashan crossed more bridges than you guys! Everyone is here, you guys tell me, what is the constitution today?"

Seeing that everyone had looked over, Dong Hu was not very particular, so he covered the large wooden barrel he was carrying with him and sat on the big wooden barrel in the street.

"Although we are not serious about using food to eat soldiers, the bandits and horse bandits also have big and small leaders. If we don't even have any rules, we will either be chopped off by the bandits as a mob, or a brother stabbed each other by a horse spoon. If this is true, then we should break up as soon as possible, and everyone can still meet and fight. Haha."

Yao Shanduanmuwan stood up, looked at the crowd stretching his neck, whispering to each other and buzzing...

"Huwa is right. There are parents in the family and patriarchs. If there is no leader and no rules, everyone should break up as soon as possible."

Zheng San, who had a large skeleton but was thin, pushed away the crowd and shouted: "We all understand the truth. Since we have eaten the tiger baby's meal, we will naturally listen to the tiger baby. Hu baby, what are your rules?"

They all stood with a wooden bowl, and Dong Hu had to stand and talk.

"First of all, we are village soldiers, which are different from the soldiers of the court, so we don't pay much attention to it. Fifty people are a small team, two hundred and fifty people are a squadron, and five hundred people are a large team."

"There are fifty people in a small team, and each ten people have a deputy team, that is, five deputy team leaders."

"The first squadron has seven deputy teams, and the five squad leader is a combat squadron, so they are also deputy captains under the squadron. The squadron leader was killed in battle and was replaced by the squadron leader in the order of 'one, two, three, four, five'."

"The first squadron has five combat deputy teams, one is the deputy team for supervision of money, grain and supplies, and the other is the deputy team for supervision of military rules and regulations. Because soldiers go to the battlefield to fight, the one who succeeds General Shangguan can only be the deputy team for successor, supervises money and grain. The deputy team for military discipline is not qualified to succeed as generals."

"The squadron has five combat deputy teams and two non-combat deputy teams. Similarly, the captain has two combat deputy teams and two non-combat deputy teams."

Dong Hu looked at everyone and said again: "Huwa is the big leader, and the eldest son is the second leader, there is nothing to say!"

"Huwa is the big leader, leading two brigades directly, the eldest son leads one brigade, and the remaining brigade is the leader of General Hua Xiong."

"Huwa is the big leader, just like the combat deputy team. He is in charge of combat and planning. The second leader is in charge of non-combat deputy team, in charge of criminal law, money, food and supplies, and there is nothing to say about this."

Dong Hu turned his head to Dong Mao who was approaching, Hua Xiong nodded, and looked at everyone again.

"The first brigade is all the brothers and sisters that our Huwa has taken in for over the years. The captains of the large, medium and small brigades are decided by Huwa themselves. The captains of the three brigades and the deputy brigades are all won by you by your own ability, including General Hua Xiong who has been appointed. As long as you can fight alone and lie down, you deserve it if you take his captain!"

"No matter whether you beat someone down with your fists and seize the official position, or you bought it with money, or you won it with your seniority and prestige like Uncle Dashan, no matter what method you use, as long as others recognize you, listen to you!"
