Guo Zixing took the initiative to give Zhu Yuanzhang an official position. Needless to say, he must have encountered another difficulty that he could not solve.
Not to mention, this Marshal Guo has the ability to destroy a good hand.
Zhu Yuanzhang rescued him earlier. It stands to reason that this man should learn his lesson, be honest and recuperate. But he was unwilling to give in and wanted to take revenge.
Therefore, Guo Zixing and Peng Da joined forces to attack Xuyi and expand their power to suppress Zhao Junyong.
Unfortunately, Guo Zixing suffered another fatal blow and suffered heavy losses. His troops had dropped sharply from more than 20,000 to more than 10,000. Not to mention compared with Zhao Junyong, even Sun Deya was stronger than him.
Guo Zixing fully explains four words: people are addicted to food.
Everyone has a highlight moment. Perhaps capturing Haozhou was the pinnacle of his life. From then on, he was in a state of decline and could not be saved.
Zhu Yuanzhang also thought about it, he was too lazy to wipe Guo Zixing's butt.
Since the last time he saved his life, he no longer owed Guo Zixing. If he wanted to rely on an official position and let him work hard, he would be underestimating Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Whether the official position of the governor is given to you or not, we are now giving orders in the name of the governor... What do you think, sir?"
Zhang Ximeng was overjoyed, nodded hurriedly, and gave Zhu Yuanzhang two thumbs up, "My lord, this is a great idea! In fact, there were many official posts of Zhenfu envoy between the two Song Dynasties, and it was very important to take over the military, political and financial power of a place. Yue Wu
Mu will be the passerby and the envoy to guard Tai. Now that the lord has occupied Dingyuan, he is already the leader of the party. It is natural for him to rule under the orders of the envoy."
Zhang Ximeng felt that it was absolutely impossible to rush to Peng Da and Zhao Jun to declare themselves kings.
But it is too humble to always be the ninth captain. When someone asks, what is the official position? Just say "ninth captain". Can you open your mouth?
It would be appropriate to replace him with the governor. Lao Zhu thought so too. The emperor and his ministers hit it off immediately.
However, Zhang Ximeng soon realized that although he was just a governor, it was a sign that Lao Zhu would build his own civil and military team and start serious business to compete for world supremacy.
It may be overstated to say it was earth-shattering, but it is destined to go down in history.
Maybe others don't know, but Zhang Ximeng is very sure... Any team will inevitably have seniority issues.
It's the same thing here at Lao Zhu.
Who is the most senior?
There is no doubt that Zhang Ximeng is ranked first, and Tang He also guards Kaifeng with Zhu Yuanzhang, looking down upon everyone else. The remaining Fei Ju, as well as Xu Da and other fellow countrymen recruited by Lao Zhu personally, are almost at the same level and can be regarded as original
As a shareholder, Li Shanchang can barely squeeze into this ranks.
But apart from these people, it would be very difficult for others to occupy a position, and they would have to make unparalleled contributions.
In fact, Chang Yuchun is like this. He has not yet joined Lao Zhu's group, so he is undoubtedly a junior, but I'm sorry, who can let others fight? Everyone knows Chang Shiwan's reputation, so he can come from behind.
.
On the other hand, Liu Bowen, who had great reputation among the people, did not join him until Zhu Yuanzhang crossed the river. There was no way he could challenge Li Shanchang. The two were not on the same level at all.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Shanchang was the first Duke of the country, and Liu Bowen was the last earl... The two of them had an entire list of titles. I don't know how they kept fighting each other?
I can only talk about some works, and even ignore basic common sense. This is the real cool writing mode.
"My lord, I think this appointment is of great importance... How to arrange the official positions must not be careless. This matter must be decided by the lord himself." Zhang Ximeng suggested seriously.
Lao Zhu's face was solemn, and he also understood what Zhang Ximeng meant, but Lao Zhu frowned, wondering: "Sir, you ask us to print and divide the land equally. We are not afraid of hardship. But let us appoint civil and military officials and arrange official positions
...It’s not that we don’t know how to do it, we’re just afraid of making people laugh. Let’s do this, sir, come up with a strategy and we’ll discuss it later.”
Zhu Yuanzhang is not afraid of hardship or fatigue, but the system design is not that simple. It stands to reason that Li Shanchang can also do this, but how can Zhu Yuanzhang trust Li Shanchang?
Zhang Ximeng is still considerate!
"In this case, I'll do whatever it takes!"
Zhang Ximeng took over this heavy task, and the news spread like wildfire. Zhu Yuanzhang's subordinates couldn't help but want to pry into the news to see what position they could get...
Quietly, Zhu Yuanzhang's troops had exceeded 30,000!
The expansion speed is quite astonishing.
And these subordinates were also divided into several factions... The earliest old people from Haozhou followed Zhu Yuanzhang to Linhuai Town. They belonged to the Linhuai faction. The earliest ones who followed Zhu Yuanzhang were powerful and well-equipped, and belonged to the core.
Then there are the fellow villagers recruited by Lao Zhu himself. Although they are only a few hundred in number, they are Lao Zhu's confidants and the core of the core.
In addition to these two waves of people, there are the surrendered troops from Lupai Village and the surrendered troops from Hengjian Mountain. They have the largest number, more than 20,000. Plus the young men who took the initiative to join the army after the land was divided, Lao Zhu
The total strength of the army exceeded 35,000.
Just looking at this number is enough to make Guo Zixing, who only has more than 10,000 people left, feel ashamed.
You have to live your life like Lao Zhu and become stronger and stronger.
It's just that when there are more people and horses, people's hearts become complicated. If there is no complete set of proper management systems and the chaos below is allowed to continue, then no matter how many soldiers and horses there are, it will not help.
This was something that couldn't be delayed. Three days later, Lao Zhu summoned his men, Wen Wu, to gather together.
After a brief exchange of greetings, everyone sat down and looked forward to it.
Zhang Ximeng held a list and took a step forward. At this moment, all eyes fell on him. Enjoying the collective gaze of the future nobles of Huaixi, Zhang Ximeng could not help but feel a little nervous.
The list in his hand is not an ordinary list, it is simply a list of gods!
A scene related to the future fate of countless people is about to come!
Zhang Ximeng met everyone's gaze and scanned the whole place. Finally, he coughed, cleared his throat, and then said: "Lord, let's... talk about the civil servants first."
Tang, Xu Da and others all rolled their eyes. What do you think the civil servants are looking at us for? It makes everyone scared... If the civil servants have anything to say, you must be the boss!
But they thought wrongly, "My lord, in the Southern Song Dynasty, the governor had a council member... Mr. Li is familiar with government affairs, mature and prudent, and has rare talents. He is the best candidate for the council... He governs the people and is in charge of military aircraft.
Depend on him!"
Li Shanchang was shocked. Ever since he knew that Zhang Ximeng was responsible for assigning positions, his enthusiasm waned.
It’s over, there’s no chance!
Zhang Ximeng definitely wanted to seize power, but he was suppressed by a young man!
Unexpectedly, Zhang Ximeng actually gave up the first position of counselor to Li Shanchang.
"Mr. Zhang, this, this is inappropriate..." Li Shanchang waved his hands hurriedly.
However, Zhang Ximeng said seriously: "Mr. Li, this is not what I meant. My lord sees it this way too. You are indeed much more suitable than me. I am responsible for writing the appropriate words and handling the paperwork. Mr. Jia will be my assistant.
At the same time, he is also responsible for teaching scriptures to the Lord."
The three civil servants are clearly assigned.
By now, Li Shanchang also understood the specific arrangements.
He is somewhat similar to the chief administrative officer of Zhu Yuanzhang's team, responsible for all matters other than military and political matters. Zhang Ximeng ranks after Li Shanchang, but he is responsible for writing documents for Zhu Yuanzhang and is a trusted secretary.
As for Jia Lu, Cuncui is a consultant.
Anyway, based on his past, he would not be unfamiliar with this kind of official position that is almost a family affair.
The three major civil servants have been arranged, and the military commanders are next.
"Under the town governor, the highest official position is Qianhu, and there are no official positions above Wanhu or Wanhu for the time being... The top Qianhu is Tanghe!"
When this old Zhu joined the army, he was the leader of thousands of households. After so much, from being under Guo Zixing to being under Zhu Yuanzhang, he was still the leader of thousands of households. Could it be that he was lonely?
This is not the case. Tang He, a Qianhu, ranks first, has the most veterans, and the best equipment. All soldiers are equipped with armor, and they are truly elite soldiers with sharp armor!
It can be called the absolute main force under Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Please rest assured, superior. I will be absolutely loyal and have entrusted my life to my superior!"
Tang He knelt down on one knee and thanked Zhu Yuanzhang for his kindness. After standing up, he also looked at Zhang Ximeng with gratitude. There was no doubt that he was ranked first because of Zhang Ximeng's effort.
After Tang He, Zhang Ximeng continued to read, the second thousand households were given to Fei Ju, and the third thousand households were to Xu Da!
When Zhang Ximeng thought about Xu Da, he glanced at him and found that Xu Da's expression was as usual, he didn't care at all, and even took it for granted.
He was closer to Zhu Yuanzhang, but Fei Ju had indeed defected earlier and had made a lot of contributions. What the military valued was ability, so there was no need for him to compete with Fei Ju. If he had the ability and made great contributions, he would naturally be able to surpass him.
go.
He is worthy of being the number one general of the Ming Dynasty in the future. His demeanor and magnanimity make him the best choice.
Zhang Ximeng continued to read, Lu Zhongheng, Li Xincai, Tang Shengzong, Zheng Yuchun, Guo Ying, Guo Xing... all became one thousand households, and they were satisfied.
It's just that the Qianhu who were ranked after the tenth commanded troops from Hengjian Mountain and other places. Although the number was about the same, their combat power was greatly reduced.
However, there are exceptions, and that is Hua Yun, Wu Liang and Wu Zhen. They were appointed as Qianhu of Cavalry. Although they were Qianhu, each of them only commanded 500 Mongolian cavalry.
There is no way, who said raising cavalry is too expensive, so this is the only way.
The team of Zhu Yuanzhang Group is beginning to take shape!
For a moment, everyone was so angry that they wanted to have a big battle right away so that they could show off their skills!
Just at this time, a pair of brothers came from Miaoshan.
"The villain Feng Guoyong (Feng Guosheng) pays homage to General Zhu! Chuzhou is empty and it is a good time to capture it!"
