And in the dark place, Fei Qian was also thinking.
One thing is that there are about a thousand tribesmen in Huchuquan who are lent or employed by Yang Biao. This is a very interesting thing.
During these days, Yuvluo was blessed with wind and rain, and his scenery was unlimited. He was at home in the Yinshan Mountains. While capturing the remaining Xianbei communities there, he also sent a lot of manpower and livestock to Fei Qian. It also expanded a lot of its own strength...
However, whether Hu Chuquan's behavior was his own personal intention or Yuvrou's intention will be discussed later.
And another thing...
Cui Jun and Cui Hou.
Just like Hedong Wangyi, Cui Jun and Yang Biao have some ambiguity in their attitudes, but this is understandable. After all, Yang Biao holds a glorious title and is labeled as the Fourth Generation and the Three Dukes. Among the gentry, He has strong influence, but such an incident made Fei Qian feel that relying solely on Cui Hou as a business line would inevitably lead to some problems, but now he can't find any better candidate...
Maybe Linghu Cong is a backup candidate?
There are so few people when they are needed...
Fei Qian rolled his eyes and looked at Zhao Yun who was on the side. This time, in addition to Xun Chen, the people following Fei Qian to Diaoyin were Zhao Yun.
Since both Shangdang and Taiyuan have surrendered to him, there is no need to station heavy troops on Shangdang's side for the time being. It is enough to leave one Jia Qu there. Huang Cheng stayed in Pingyang and partnered with Zao Zhi. As Fei Qian As an important base in the rear, defense is still indispensable. As a member of the Huang family, Huang Cheng's loyalty to himself is unquestionable. This ensures that Fei does not have to worry about the rear when he is fighting on the front line. .
Zhao Yun, to be honest, is a bit of a boring gourd type. Let him and his troops work hard to train in Pingyang. Zhao Yun stayed at the school without saying a word, fighting with the big soldiers in rain or shine every day without hearing any complaints. .
Now he followed him all the way to Diaoyin. On the way, the people and horses were integrated, and Zhao Yun silently took care of the trivial matters, leaving Fei Qian almost without any worries.
If it weren't for Xu Huang's performance in the Battle of Yinshan, Fei Qian might have been elated because he had one more Zhao Yun under his command. However, Zhao Yun was still a young general and was depressed all day long. No one knew what was in Zhao Yun's heart. Thinking about this and other things, this gave Fei Qian some thought.
Fei Qian arranged for Zhao Yun to go to the academy several times after training, and also let him attend Cai Yong's lectures. Judging from Cai Yong's feedback, although Zhao Yun's foundation was a bit weak, he was a young man who was willing to study. , so Fei Qian found a volume of "Lu Jing" and several volumes of "Han Shu" from the library of the Academy this time, and gave them to Zhao Yun. Although they were all copied versions, for the current Han Dynasty To people, it is still valuable.
Almost every day after Zhao Yun finished his work, he would hold the book and study it carefully. The more he read, the more taciturn he became.
Although Fei Qian has now been canonized as a Marquis of Guannei, this title is only the lowest among marquises. In fact, in the Han Dynasty, titles were not limited to ascending and descending, but whenever something happened, using titles and money to atone for one's sins was also a tradition in the Han Dynasty.
A major feature.
It’s just that with the status of Guannai Hou, if a banquet is held, twelve beans’ dishes can be used. This has to be said to be a huge improvement...
Of course, there are also differences in the number of personal guards and honor guards, but Fei Qian still has a military position after all, so he doesn't pay too much attention to these.
In the lobby of Diaoyin Mansion, Fei Qian and Zhao Yun sat quietly opposite each other.
Zhao Yun sat on a thin mat with his back straight.
Nowadays, there are more trades among Hu people in Pingyang, and fur products are relatively cheap. Therefore, both generals and low-level military princes like to wear a layer of tanned fur on the cold armor to keep out the cold. After all, it is not safe.
They must march and stay in the wild, and the temperature difference between day and night is very big here in the north. An extra leather jacket can also block a lot of cold wind. But Zhao Yun still wears a somewhat worn Gebu shirt outside the armor, which is just starched.
It has to be clean...
Fei Qian pointed to Zhao Yun's robe and said, "Zilong, why don't you use a leather robe? Is it because Zilong is not afraid of the cold?"
Zhao Yun was silent for a while and said: "...Meng Ziyun, was born in sorrow and died in happiness... Someone reads the scriptures and practices them..."
Fei Qian nodded, then shook his head.
This Zhao Yun...
"Zilong, if the soldiers suddenly encounter severe cold, wind and snow, now the army can give Gebu, and there are enough furs," Fei Qian looked at Zhao Yun and asked, "...You are the commander-in-chief of the army. Are you going to give Gebu to the soldiers?"
Or fur?"
"Well..." Zhao Yun frowned slightly, and then said, "If the wind and cold are severe, it is better to remove the fur."
Fei Qian smiled, and then joked: "Can I tell the soldiers at this time that God will give this man a great responsibility, so that I can save a few carts of furs?"
Zhao Yun was silent, looking at Fei Qian without blinking, but didn't say a word.
In this era, Fei Qian never thought about having such a dedicated and iron-willed army like later generations, because this is simply impossible.
Fei Qian just wanted to be able to separate farmers and soldiers and take a small step forward towards a professional army.
Being a soldier is undoubtedly a profession where you can lose your head at any time. If you don’t even have supplies and don’t provide enough benefits to the army, how can you stimulate the soldiers’ desire to fight?
In history, the development path of any powerful feudal dynasty must have a group of generals and soldiers who are willing to fight, and even behave a little greedy, so that they can conquer the surrounding areas and plunder resources. If there are a lot of
How could the Puritan army accomplish such a mission?
As for how to strike a balance between military interests and military control, grasping this contradiction is another question...
However, Fei Qian came to Zhao Yun not just to discuss Zhao Yun's clothes, but because during this period, Fei Qian found that Zhao Yun showed some bad signs.
"Zilong doesn't want to be associated with Xingtan?" Fei Qian suddenly asked bluntly.
Fei Qian's sudden words made Zhao Yun slightly moved. After a moment of silence, Zhao Yun suddenly sighed, lowered his head and said: "... Fei Hou is very aware of everything... a certain... family fell under the hooves of the barbarians... the family...
Yan Yiyu was on the way to escape, and he is still in a foreign country... My subordinates are really..."
This is the problem with Zhao Yun that Fei Qian noticed.
In the North, the conflict between Hu and Han is an acute problem, but the problem is that Fei Qian also has a lot of Hu cavalry. We can't always let Zhao Yun only command the Han people and never coordinate and cooperate with the Hu people, right?
Fei Qian didn't expect that when he arrived in the Han Dynasty, he would actually provide Zhao Yun with psychological counseling and mental development. This was really...
