Chapter 304: Nanyu City(1/2)
() The Bureau of Statistics had a very transcendent status in Han Dynasty.
The Bureau of Statistics does not have any direct relationship with the officials and sergeants. However, the Bureau of Statistics assesses the achievements of the officials and counts the military's military exploits.
Unless appointed personally by the monarch, every promotion and promotion of officials and military officers must be based on the assessment of the Bureau of Statistics.
Therefore, the Bureau of Statistics has a huge restriction on the Han ** team.
The Statistics Bureau's eyes and ears for timely management are also Du Le's eyes and ears.
Through the Bureau of Statistics, the entire country is managed.
Du Le had not paid attention to the military affairs of the Han Dynasty for a while. After thinking about it, he asked: "Who has the highest position among the Han officials today?"
"The conquering general Feng Ping and the national protecting general Xi Wu are of the same rank and have the highest positions." He answered as the administrative system contained detailed information.
Hearing this, Du Le nodded and continued to ask: "Where are the two of them now?" . .
Guan Zheng paused and said nothing.
Du Le didn't pay attention, he knew he was making inquiries.
Within ten seconds, Guanzheng replied: "They are in their respective mansions."
Du Le asked Guan Zheng about the general situation of Feng Ping and Xi Wu.
It turns out that although Feng Ping and Xi Wu are both senior generals of the Han State, they have different focuses and responsibilities. Feng Ping is the general of the Han State. In the conquest wars between Qi and Jin, he was outside
Led the Han army. Feng Ping was dedicated to expanding the territory, and his opponents were mainly enemy soldiers.
Xi Wu was different. He was first in charge of the patrol team of the villa, and later he was responsible for guarding the capital. He was responsible for all the rebels, bandits, and thieves in the Han Dynasty.
Feng Ping and Xi Wu, one is in charge of the outside and the other is in charge of the inside.
In peacetime, Feng Ping mostly leads troops to fight outside, while Xi Wu usually dispatches troops and generals to quell chaos in the capital.
According to the merit calculation of the Bureau of Statistics, the two men have the same military rank.
After the last war between Han and Ming, Ming was defeated.
The resistance forces of Qi and Jin dissipated immediately.
The Han Kingdom was included in the territory of Qi and Jin, and Feng Ping happened to return to his country to report on his duties. Therefore, Feng Ping is now in his mansion in the capital.
"Immediately summon Feng Ping and Xi Wu, as well as military generals who can lead troops. I want to discuss the matter of conquering the Ming Dynasty and decide on the generals who will conquer the Ming Dynasty." Du Le said to Guan Zheng.
Du Le issued the order, and Guan Zheng immediately dispatched the palace guards from the palace, notified the military generals in the capital, and summoned them. An hour later, they met in the palace study.
The palace doors of the Han Dynasty opened, and dozens of palace guards rode horses and rushed to the general's mansion to deliver the notice.
Most of the military generals were surprised and happy when they received the notice. They didn't know the reason for the king's summons, so they quickly put on their clothes and hurried to the palace on horseback.
Du Le asked Guan Zheng to make preparations in the palace study and make a simple plan.
In addition, the governor suggested that Du Le should have the palace kitchen prepare food at the end of the meeting and have a meal with the generals to appease and win people's hearts.
Du Le knew that it was inappropriate for him to appear in front of his subordinates because he had very little time.
Therefore, Du Le did not refuse the suggestion of administration. Later, Du Le arranged the palace dining room and prepared sumptuous wine and food.
An hour later, twenty-six Han officials and generals, led by the palace guards, entered the study to meet the emperor.
"See the king."
Twenty-six officers raised their hands, lowered their eyebrows, and saluted Du Le.
Du Le carefully looked at the twenty-six Han army officers and felt that most of them were a bit unfamiliar. Du Le remembered Feng Ping and Xi Wu. After all, they were the main persons in charge of the Villa when they emerged from the Villa.
Du Le was gratified that these Han generals all had a fierce military aura about them.
"Well, you all look very good, I feel very pleased." Du Le said with satisfaction: "It is because of you that the people of Han can live and work in peace and contentment, and the country can prosper."
The twenty-six Han generals did not expect that as soon as they entered the main hall, the king would praise them. They were extremely happy, and they felt like a scholar would die for his confidant.
Praise from a superior can indeed easily touch the hearts of subordinates.
"Long live the king!" Feng Ping said.
"Master, without you, there would be no Han State today!" Xi Wu said sincerely.
"The leader of the country is too honored, but the ministers are too embarrassed to deserve it."
Du Le's kind words and compliments made the officers and generals present couldn't help but feel grateful. They all spoke out what was in their hearts.
Du Le sat in the upper position and smiled. He didn't know whether what these generals said and thought were consistent. However, he did feel comfortable listening to their compliments.
Du Le said with a smile: "Stop flattering me. I came to you today because I need your advice on something."
Hearing this, Feng Ping, Xi Wu and other twenty-six generals pricked up their ears attentively.
Du Le smiled slightly and continued: "I want to occupy a place."
Feng Ping did not hesitate and said immediately: "Lord, where do you want to occupy? Leave it to me, and I will destroy all enemies for the Lord."
"Master, I can also lead troops to fight." Xi Wu was not far behind and stood up and said. He did not want to stay in the country to kill bandits. Every soldier will have the dream of opening up and expanding the territory.
In fact, most of the officers and generals in the study were members who joined Du Le Villa when it was founded. Therefore, they have seen or heard about the various magical qualities of Du Le.
Countless food, all kinds of rare treasures, and divine punishment from heaven.
Feng Ping even witnessed the divine punishment from heaven with his own eyes. In an instant, the Ming Dynasty camp was wiped from the earth.
The Han government officials were the group that most believed in Du Le's ability. They firmly believed that Du Le was an "immortal".
The thousand-mile sound transmission (wireless communication function) of the communicators on the wrists of Bureau of Statistics officials is even regarded as a kind of magic by them.
After the founding of the Han Dynasty, Du Le treated soldiers and officers equally.
The Han dynasty troops, whether they offer advice or kill the enemy, can obtain military merit as long as they perform meritorious service. The statistics bureau calculates merit, which is fair and reasonable. Soldiers are not owed military pay, and officers are expected to be promoted.
The Han army is undoubtedly the most loyal force in safeguarding the Han Dynasty.
Therefore, even if Du Le did not go to court for a long time and never left the capital to govern, there was never any trouble in the Han Dynasty.
"Quiet, don't be anxious. Listen to the description of governance before you comment." Du Le said with a smile.
Hearing Du Le's words, the officers and generals present shut up one after another. At the same time, they showed excited expressions on their faces.
Not long after the founding of the Han Dynasty, the traditional Qi and Jin Dynasties were destroyed. It is not easy to achieve military exploits.
Many officers and generals in the Han Dynasty wanted to be promoted to a noble rank for their meritorious service.
"Master of the country, ladies and gentlemen, please come here." Guanzheng said, walking to a wall on the left.
Du Le stood up and walked over.
On the wall, there is a map of Han Dynasty prepared by the administrator. On the outside of the map, there are also some topographic marks of other countries listed.
The Han general followed Du Le and stood in front of the map, extremely shocked.
"Your Majesty, you actually have such a detailed map." Feng Ping said in surprise, "Our army will get twice the result with half the effort if we have such a detailed map when fighting."
Guanzheng took out a slender wooden stick, pointed at a certain mountain range (energy stone vein) on the map at the junction of Han and Ming countries, and said: "There are rich mineral veins here. We must occupy this place and build a
A military city."
Feng Ping and Xi Wu were not surprised. There was a mine in the back of the villa.
Various ores can be turned into various commodities and even weapons.
Du Le smiled, took the wooden stick, drew a circle around the mountains on the map (including the location of the energy stone veins) and continued: "I hope that the land in this range should be the territory of the Han Kingdom."
Feng Ping, Xi Wu and other generals were greatly cheered up when they saw this.
Because, the scope designated by Du Le included the southern area of Yunzhou in the Ming Dynasty.
Different from the bordering mountainous areas, there is a large city in the south of Yunzhou with a population of more than 100,000, Nanyu City.
If we can capture Nanyu City, it will definitely be a great achievement.
Du Le smiled slightly when he saw this. In fact, he likes to build military cities and mines near mineral veins. Building a military city is a big city.
However, Du Le thought that the mine would definitely need a large number of miners. It was impossible to transfer all the miners in the villa to the new mine.
Therefore, obtaining local labor force and allowing young adults in southern Yunzhou to become miners is undoubtedly the best choice.
Du Le looked at his officers and generals, smiled, and decided to pour cold water on them to calm them down. Du Le said: "The two countries of Qi and Jin have just been pacified, and they need soldiers to garrison. In the place where Qi and Jin are training,
There are new recruits from the Han Dynasty, so it is not appropriate to deploy too many troops for the time being.
I only dispatched five thousand Han soldiers to attack Nanyu City in Yunzhou, Ming Dynasty."
Sure enough, his general fell silent and began to analyze the strength of both sides in his mind.
Du Le was not angry. He also hoped that his Han generals would be rational. However, Du Le also wanted to see who among the generals had the greatest confidence in him.
If Du Le wasn't confident, how could he let five thousand soldiers go to war?
At this time, standing at the very back, a middle-aged officer with a full beard said loudly: "I request you to lead five thousand troops to capture Nanyu City for your majesty."
Du Le was very happy and asked: "What is your name and what is your current position?"
"My surname is Wei and my given name is Qubing. I was a former warrior of the mountain villa and now I am the general of the east gate of the capital city." The middle-aged officer replied loudly.
"Very good, then the leader of the army this time." Du Le said with a smile.
