Traveling through Chenghan Xiandi, fortunately I have a simulator

Chapter 124 Appoint Zhu Jun
"Huangfu Aiqing's proposal is just right, I'm very satisfied, why don't you let him come to the palace to meet me at noon, I also want to show Zhu Gong's demeanor." Zhang Ming nodded and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Huangfusong replied.

It was only when Huangfusong was about to resign that he remembered that he still had something to report to His Majesty today.

"Your Majesty, I have something to ask Your Majesty."

"Say"

"As the Minister of the Military Department, I have already discussed with the two officials of the Military Merit Department about military merit rewards, but in order to be more fair, I plan to ask His Majesty to allocate a [-]-man Imperial Army team to follow. Two officials from the Military Merit Department will award military merit together."

Zhang Ming looked at Huangfusong in surprise. Based on his understanding of Huangfusong, Huangfusong would never have thought of this place, but he didn't point it out because he was very satisfied with Huangfusong's proposal.

Zhang Ming now holds great power and relies on the strength of the army, but in fact, the army in the city is not directly loyal to him. For example, Lu Bu's army, his orders are far less effective than those of Lu Bu. The army under Huangfusong's jurisdiction Fortunately, at least he is respected as the emperor, but it is absolutely impossible to drive him like an arm.

If there are any troops in Chang'an City that are completely under the command of the emperor, then there are only forbidden troops and personal soldiers.

Although the number of the forbidden army is only about [-], it is divided into three parts, the Habayashi Army, the Southern Army, and the Northern Army. The Habayashi Army mainly includes the guards around the emperor, Lang Guan, such as some palace guards guarding important places. , are all subordinate to the Habayashi Army, including the palace guards in the Weiyang Palace Hall, and this Habayashi Army, their direct superior is the commander of the imperial army. Of course, the commander of the imperial army is only responsible for management tasks. The real superior is emperor.

The southern army is mainly responsible for patrolling, guarding, and guarding the palace. They are collectively referred to as "guards". Of course, some core palace inner halls are not within their scope of defense, such as the emperor's bedroom, such as Weiyang Palace, such as Gaomen Hall and so on, these important places are in charge of the Habayashi Army.

The Northern Army is mainly responsible for the security of Chang'an City, which of course does not include the imperial palace. The so-called Chang'an City refers to the outer city of Chang'an and the Lifang area. There are also many people in the outer city of Chang'an, but these people often have some status, or some family connections. As for the Lifang District outside the outer city, the people there are very ordinary. When Zhang Ming visited privately in Weibo, the robberies he saw along the road were mainly concentrated in the Lifang District outside the outer city.

The original Northern Army was also responsible for the guarding of the Sanfu area, but now the Northern Army does not have so many soldiers, so it can only be responsible for the guarding of Chang'an City, but this is enough.

The command of the Southern Army and the Northern Army is also directly under the emperor, but this kind of direct control is different from that of the Habayashi Army. The change of guards also requires the consent of the emperor, and the commander of the Habayashi Army is only responsible for simple management duties, but the replacement of soldiers in the southern and northern armies does not require the consent of the emperor. They only need the emperor's approval for the replacement of officials above the military rank. agree.

With this set of designs, the safety of the emperor was finally guaranteed. At least in the palace, it was almost impossible to murder the emperor.Therefore, Zhang Ming had great trust in the Forbidden Army. Although their abilities were mediocre, what he wanted was safety.

Apart from the forbidden army, there is another team, which is the personal army that is still in training. It will take a long time for Zhang Ming to train this personal army into a truly elite force, and the most important thing is to What's more, with the bonus of the simulator talent, this personal soldier is completely loyal to him, and he doesn't have to worry about the rebellion of this army, so his current idea is naturally to improve the combat capability of this team as much as possible.

"Then do as Huangfu Aiqing wants."

"Cui Ming, you select a hundred elite soldiers from the Southern Army to go to the military headquarters, and let these people obey the orders of the officials of the Military Merit Department."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Cui Ming agreed and left the hall.

Seeing that the matter had been completed, Huangfu Song took the initiative to leave.

Huangfusong, who left the palace, drove towards the mansion in a car, and Zhu Jun was still resting in his mansion.

Huangfusong considered that Zhu Jun did not have a mansion in Chang'an City, so he left Zhu Jun and his cronies in the mansion, and let him go after finding a mansion for him later.

After Huangfusong arrived at the mansion, he saw Zhu Jun again. He smiled and said to Zhu Jun, "Gong Wei, Your Majesty asked you to go to the palace at noon."

Afterwards, Huangfusong told Zhu Jun about what happened in the palace today, but of course he didn't say anything about the military department.

In the afternoon, Huangfusong and Zhu Jun set off from Fuchu to the Imperial Palace at the same time, one went to the Gaomen Hall, and the other went to the Mingguang Hall.

Zhang Ming looked at the person who entered the hall, and from the mouth of the attendant, he knew that this person was Zhu Jun, the former chariot general. Although this person was older than Huangfusong, his temperament was not inferior to Huangfusong's at all. And even more majestic.

Zhu Jun who walked into the hall bowed and said, "My subject, Zhu Jun, pays homage to Your Majesty."

Looking at the emperor in front of him, Zhu Jun was greatly surprised. Of course, he had met the emperor in Luoyang before. Although he stayed in Luoyang after Dong Zhuo moved his capital, at that time he naturally could not have imagined that His Majesty, who was so playful all those years ago, would actually It has developed to this point, which is really amazing.

"I heard that Zhu Aiqing has been secretly organizing forces against Dong Zhuo over the years. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

Zhang Ming naturally didn't know what Zhu Jun was doing in Luoyang. His question was just to show his majesty and ability. The impression I left was really mediocre. If he hadn't taken the initiative to bend his knees to befriend Huangfusong, I am afraid that Huangfusong at that time would have been worried about His Majesty's ability.

Hearing these words, Zhu Jun felt turmoil in his heart. He had secretly organized forces against Dong Zhuo for several months. In order to oppose Dong Zhuo, he even contacted some princes in other states. Of course, with the death of Dong Zhuo, all these plans were lost. The meaning of existence.

"Your Majesty, I did have this idea, but I never thought that Dong Zhuo would die at the hands of Lu Bu. This is something I never expected." Zhu Jun said disapprovingly.

Although Lu Bu has become a chariot general, Zhu Jun still calls him by his first name. He is not ashamed of Dong Zhuo, so he naturally hates Lu Bu.

"Zhu Aiqing, General Lu has eliminated harm for the country, and now he is my right-hand man."

Hearing this, Zhu Jun looked a little dissatisfied, but he didn't show it.

"I called Zhu Aiqing here today to ask for something. Ten days ago, the Baibo bandits in Hedong County became interested in the surrounding counties. Shangshutai also received urgent memorials from the counties, but at that time Chang'an City They are being besieged by Dong Zhuo's generals, so they cannot be rescued in time."

"Now that the crisis in Chang'an City has been resolved, I think it's time to resolve the crisis in Hedong County."

With a few brief words, Zhang Ming told Zhu Jun about the matter.

Although Zhu Jun has already learned the general situation from Huangfusong, he still has some questions and needs to ask His Majesty before he can take any action.

"Your Majesty, why did you use your ministers to conquer the Baibo bandits? No matter whether it is the Hussar General or the Chariot General Lu Bu, they must be able to easily take down the Baibo bandits with their abilities."

Although Zhu Jun believed in Huangfusong's vision, he still needed to ask himself. He always felt that the so-called Minister of the Military Department was actually just a design by His Majesty to seize military power. He wanted to remind Huangfusong, but it was better to ask His Majesty after all.

"Zhu Aiqing, are you complaining for Huangfu Aiqing? I know that you two have a good relationship, so you can only ask questions that Huangfu Aiqing would not ask for him."

"The reason why I didn't let Huangfu Aiqing lead the army is because Chang'an needs someone to guard it. Although the enemy army has retreated, there are still many things for the court. I need a strong general to protect the court."

"As for General Lu, his military ability is not as good as you and General Huangfu. Although Chang'an City has [-] to [-] soldiers, the Baibo bandits have more than [-] soldiers. With General Lu's ability, even if he can win, he will need to spend a lot of money." The vast majority of troops cannot be consumed by the imperial court."

Zhang Ming told the truth about his thoughts on keeping Huangfusong. Although he only mentioned one of the reasons, the other reason is that Huangfusong is already in a high position and there is no reward. Difficulties, there is no need for Huangfusong to achieve great results again. He naturally believes in Huangfusong, but it does not mean that there is no need for checks and balances.

As for why Zhang Ming didn't send Lu Bu to lead the army, he was telling the truth, although he only mentioned one of the reasons. As for the other reason, it was that the battle might last for more than a month. At that time, Lu Bu's Loyalty has returned to normal, who knows how many unexpected things will happen, so in order to avoid this situation, he can't let Lu Bu go with the imperial army.

After listening to His Majesty's words, Zhu Jun began to meditate. He didn't know the specific things that happened in Chang'an City. The reason why he asked this question was purely to fight for Huangfusong. Deep down in his heart, he was still worried about the Son of Heaven. , he suspected that there was an insidious villain saying some divisive words behind the emperor's back.

Zhu Jun looked at the eunuchs who were beside His Majesty, including Cui Ming, the regular servant. He still remembered that there were also a group of eunuchs beside the late emperor. These eunuchs deceived the late emperor to do many wrong actions. The proposal was also made by this group of eunuchs, and the purpose was to divide Huangfusong's military power away.

"Your Majesty, I'm taking the liberty, please forgive me." Zhu Jun bowed his head and said, although he still had some doubts, since His Majesty had already explained it, if he continued to ask, he would not know what to do.

"It's okay, Zhu Aiqing, but if you have any questions, you can ask again. If I know, I will let you know."

Zhu Jun naturally knew that His Majesty's words were purely polite, and if he really asked further, it would really be embarrassing to His Majesty.

"Your Majesty, I already know about the situation of the Baibo bandits. I only need [-] soldiers to conquer the Yellow Turban bandits."

Based on Zhu Jun's understanding of the Yellow Turban Thieves, 2 White Wave Bandits and [-] soldiers would be good enough. Most of the others are coerced refugees. These refugees seem to have a large number of people, but even the most basic weapons The equipment is seriously lacking. In his previous battles, among the troops known as [-] Yellow Turbans, there were more than [-] people with ring-shoulders and more than [-] people with armor.

According to Zhu Jun's preliminary estimate, 5000 soldiers are almost enough, but he has not fought for too long, so in order to be sure, he said [-] more soldiers.

"Yes, I will assign you [-] soldiers."

"Are there any other requests?"

Zhu Jun thought for a while and said "no"

"Come here, please call."

An eunuch took out scrolls, ink scrolls and brushes, waiting for His Majesty's words.

"I have appointed Zhu Jun as General Dongzhong Lang, and in accordance with the festival, dispatched [-] soldiers from the Northeast Barracks of Chang'an City to set off in the early morning of the day after tomorrow to suppress the rebellion of the Baibo bandits in Hedong County."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhu Jun took the tiger talisman and imperial edict from the eunuch, and thanked him again.Then he took the imperial edict and tiger talisman, and prepared to leave the Gaomen Hall.

"By the way, General Zhu, please pay attention to one of Yang Feng's generals for me. His name is Xu Huang. This person may be able to help the general."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Although Zhu Jun was quite curious about His Majesty's words, he didn't say much, but left the Gaomen Hall directly.

After Zhu Jun left, Zhang Ming planned to summon him again.

"I specially appointed Zhang Liao, the servant of the military department, as the captain of Dong Zhonglang to accompany him and set off together."

"I specially appointed the school captain Zhang Meng as the general of Dong Zhonglang to accompany the school lieutenant, and lead the soldiers under his command to set off together."

"I specially appointed the school captain Cheng Lian as Dong Zhonglang will accompany the school captain, lead the soldiers under his command, and set off together."

Zhang Ming drew up three more edicts in one breath, appointing three school lieutenants respectively. As for the other school lieutenants, Zhu Jun can freely decide. Of these three school lieutenants, Zhang Liao is his key training target. With the power of the aristocratic family, Cheng Lian was Lu Bu's loyal subordinate, in order to divide Lu Bu's army again.

"Cui Ming, hand these three edicts to Zhang Liao, the Minister of the Military Department, Zhang Meng, the Colonel, and Cheng Lian, the Colonel.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Cui Ming handed the three edicts to three eunuchs under him, and asked them to go to three places and hand over the three edicts to the corresponding people.

After leaving the palace, Zhu Jun began to go to the barracks in the southeast of the outer city. Since the end of the war, the soldiers on the city walls have resumed their previous configuration. There are more than two thousand guards on each of the four walls, led by the city gate captain. manage.

The rest of the soldiers were divided into two parts, located in two places in the city. The soldiers who used to defend the east gate and the north gate were now located in the barracks northeast of the outer city. There were [-] soldiers in total.Lu Bu's army was located in the barracks southwest of the outer city, with a total of more than [-] soldiers, including the former prisoners.

When Zhu Jun arrived at the military camp in the southeast direction, he happened to meet Sima Lang, and Yang Xiu led a hundred-man imperial army to distribute military rewards in the army.
