After listening to Huangfu Chaobo's inquiry, Guo Jia shook his head and said, "that's true, so in Jia's opinion, Zhang Yan's intention to form an alliance with our eastern army should be sincere, and they should have nothing more than food and weapons."

Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo said: "you reply to Zhang Yan's emissary and tell him that Ben would like to see him and let him go to Weijun as soon as possible. Elder martial brother and his emissary should agree on a meeting place as soon as possible. There should not be too many people to meet. In this way, it should be 1000 people. Tell him if he can't arrive in 15 days, let him go to Luoyang to talk with Ben Jiang. "

Zhu Hao a Leng, immediately wake up, after a promise, then leave. Go to arrange personnel to return to Ye County, negotiate with Zhang Yan's emissary.

When Zhu Hao retreated, Huangfu Chaobo had time to talk to a group of children and said, "how do you feel after riding for half a day today?"

Among these children, Zao Ping, the eldest son of Zao, and dianman, the eldest son of Dianwei, were the first. They were just one man and one martial.

For Dian man, riding a horse has long been one of his daily training, so riding a horse for half a day is not very urgent, and there is no problem at all. But for zaoping people, they suffered a lot. Zaoping, in particular, has reached the age of 15. He rode alone. After half a day, he could hardly walk.

The others are not so bad. They are basically carried by cavalry, so they are not as tired as zaoping. However, they are much younger, and they are not easy. Seeing that they were all exhausted, Huangfu Chaobo swallowed all the words he had said. He immediately told Dianwei to take them to clean up and go to bed as soon as possible.

The next morning, after breakfast, Huangfu Chaobo and his party began to inspect the situation of Neihuang. In fact, there are only a few things to do. One is to inspect the barracks and the city defense. The other is to check the city's Treasuries and the reserves of grain and weapons. The other is to meet officials at all levels.

There are many cities in the Central Plains. Generally speaking, the larger cities are of double-layer structure. In addition to the outer city, there is also an inner city. For example, Wei County, because of the border with Yuan Shaojun, so after Huangfu Chaobo took over, he ordered all the cities to build the inner city, and moved many important buildings to the inner city, such as the storehouse, granary, weapons workshop and so on, and generally required that they should be built near the county government.

Huangfu Chaobo, under the leadership of the county magistrate and county captain, first inspected the soldiers in the barracks in the city. There were 3100 soldiers stationed in Neihuang, including 3000 infantry and 100 cavalry. According to the establishment of the East army, the infantry army was the lowest independent unit. That is to say, each infantry army had 1000 soldiers, 100 wagons, 200 civilian men and 200 pack horses, Among them, 60 vehicles have grain and grass of 1500 stone a month, and the remaining 40 vehicles are camp tents and spare weapons and equipment for soldiers.

Each unit consists of two pieces of sword shield soldiers, two pieces of long spearmen, and one piece of bow and arrow soldiers. If necessary, plus a certain number of cavalry, you can fight alone.

Of course, for the garrison, there may be a difference in the number of soldiers. Just as Neihuang County captain slightly adjusted his 3000 soldiers, he adjusted the mix of sword shield soldiers, spearmen and archers to the team level, that is, there are 20 sword shield soldiers, 20 long spearmen and 10 archers in a team of 50.

Such a system is better for the garrison. For example, to guard the city, one of the daily tasks of the garrison is to guard the city gate. After this adjustment, he can arrange a team of soldiers for each city gate instead of drawing soldiers from each song. After a long time, the cooperation between the 50 soldiers will be more tacit.

In addition, a team of soldiers is arranged at the head of the city, so that the number of soldiers on duty in each round is 400, which is much more convenient for the generals to arrange the duty at the head of the city.

On the top of the city, Neihuang County Magistrate anxiously reported to Huangfu Chaobo about his adjustment of 3000 garrison troops. Next to him, Neihuang County Magistrate and Wei County Duwei listened with fear, but they scolded the county magistrate to death. You know, one of them is the county magistrate's direct superior, the other is his immediate superior. If Huangfu Chaobo wants to punish him If so, the two of them can not escape the responsibility.

The magistrate of Neihuang has been crying bitterly. It's a matter of time for the county magistrate to adjust the establishment. Originally, a few months ago, the county magistrate came to the magistrate and asked him to make a small adjustment in the establishment of soldiers, but the magistrate didn't intervene much. On the one hand, he felt that it would not affect him to just make a fine adjustment. On the other hand, the county magistrate was a Zhengdong army transferred from Hanoi The old army, and the county magistrate himself was the original Neihuang County Magistrate under Han Fu. Based on the principle that more is better than less, he wanted not to offend the old army under general Zhengdong, so he agreed.

I didn't expect that just a few months later, general Zhengdong suddenly appeared in Neihuang, and he personally asked about the establishment, which made the cold sweat behind him flow down, even though it is now in the middle of winter. Since then, it is impossible for any monarch to allow his subordinates to change the military system without permission. If he meets a strict monarch, he will even behead people on the spot.

After the county captain finished, Huangfu Chaobo looked at him with awe inspiring eyes and said, "do you know the crime?""The end will know the crime!" The county magistrate knelt down and bowed his head and said, "this should have been reported to the county magistrate. After getting permission, it would have been adjusted. However, the county magistrate is going to try it out for a period of time before reporting it. So

"Come on, Neihuang County captain he Fu didn't get the military order, changed the military system privately, and was beheaded according to the law. But he thought you were loyal, and you would be exempted from death. However, death can be exempted, and living sin can't be separated. He was punished with a staff of 30. He was removed from the county captain's post, demoted to the village chief, and transferred to longxiangying camp, where he was allowed to commit crimes and perform meritorious deeds. The magistrate of Neihuang County was removed from his post and transferred to the county town for another arrangement. Zhu Hao, the prefect of Wei County, and Geng Wu, the prefect of Wei County, were not strict with the emperor and were punished for half a year. "

Then, with a wave of his hand, several trapped soldiers immediately came forward, stripped off the county captain's armor and dragged him to one side for execution.

After so long in the game, Huangfu Chaobo knows that there is a saying that "only tools and names, not dummies." There is also a saying that "the gun * the rod * the son comes out of the political power"! Therefore, whether it's the recruitment of soldiers in the army or the appointment and removal of personnel in the military and political fields, it's only after he personally confirms that it's effective. Others can make suggestions and recommend talents, but they can't teach them privately. What's more, if we don't deal with this kind of private change of military system today, some people will dare to expand their troops and rebel next time.
