Chapter 199: Selection of Yizhou Attackers
As for the fact that the commanders of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry were able to train the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, this was a special surprise. After all, they were only training according to the instructions of Li Ru and Dong Zhuo, and eventually those instructions became instinct. If you asked them to talk about training methods, they would definitely be completely in the dark.
But they were able to train them. They didn't know why. Even Li Ru didn't understand the principle. Originally, they just wanted to train a group of cavalry, but it somehow turned into a variant of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
Combined with the pyramid-shaped command system created by Li Ru, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry became the most powerful cavalry in Liangzhou. As for why? Anyway, Li Jue and his men didn't care.
Zhang Liao and Gongsun Zan are in the same situation. Can the two of them train corresponding types of troops?
Yes, but it is almost impossible to ask two people to rewrite it all over again. They can only expand the team by having the old bring in the new.
After counting them all, only Chen Dao stood out.
"Yan Yan and Zhang Ren are generals of Yizhou. With their assistance, I believe Xuande will face much less resistance in taking over Yizhou ."
"Especially General Yan Yan, he is a veteran general of Yizhou. Most of the Yizhou army knows General Yan Yan. With his assistance, Xuande, you will have fewer setbacks along the way."
Speaking of this, Yan Yan was also a general who was nailed to the pillar of shame. There were only two famous generals who were defeated by the fierce Zhang Fei, one was Yan Yan and the other was Zhang He.
However, Yan Yan acted as the guide and ran into Sichuan very quickly, with smooth sailing along the way.
Now that Yan Yan is willing to serve his country and Zhang Ren is by his side, it will be easier for Liu Bei to enter Sichuan than before.
"In addition, Qin Liangyu and Wei Yan will also go with Xuande."
Liu Bei knew about Wei Yan. When he was sent out from Jingzhou, he ran into his old boss Huang Zhong and surrendered on the spot. Of course, there was nothing wrong with that.
The biggest problem is Wei Yan's appearance and demeanor. It cannot be said that he is exactly the same as his second brother Guan Yu. It can only be said that they are about 70% similar.
If Guan Yu wasn't very old, everyone would really doubt whether Wei Yan was a mistake made by Guan Yu when he was young.
"Meng Huo and Shamoke are the local bosses in southern Xinjiang. They will also cooperate with you. As for the civil officials... I need to go to the Government Affairs Office. Xuande will wait for good news then."
When it comes to civil officials, Guo Hao is a little at a loss. Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Fa Zheng... Liu Bei's most important advisers all studied in the Imperial Academy.
As for the others, the brothers Mi Zhu and Mi Fang were directly sent to build roads and bridges, while Sun Qian and Jian Yong were also helping a group of monsters in the Government Affairs Hall.
For a moment, Guo Hao really couldn't think of a suitable person to follow Liu Bei to Yizhou.
Liu Bei was very excited. He had few generals under his command, and Guo Hao had assigned him seven or eight generals with just a wave of his hand. These people were all top-notch generals.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble Pengju!"
"By the way, Xuande, in terms of military strength, I can only give you 5,000 Danyang soldiers, 2,000 Shesheng Battalion, 2,000 Changshui Battalion, and 4,000 Qin Liangyu's own troops. I'm afraid you have to Xuande."
Liu Bei was even more surprised when he heard this. He did not expect that Guo Hao could actually allocate more than 10,000 elite troops to him. He also planned to recruit some young and strong men locally. In this case, the difficulty of conquering Yizhou would be too easy.
Not to mention him, why not just replace him with anyone else? He is not so arrogant that he is the only one. Even if Guo Hao has other ideas, why not send any other confidant? Why does he want him to go? It can't be because he is a royal relative, right?
Guo Hao shook his head at Liu Bei's doubts. He thought that Liu Bei would probably understand his deep meaning when he left the country. As for Liu Bei now, he would not understand no matter how much he said.
"By the way, Xuande, this is the imperial edict. Xuande, please go to their homes in person when the time comes." Guo Hao took out the imperial edict that he had prepared long ago and handed it to Liu Bei. This was a convenient door he opened for Liu Bei, and it was also a powerful tool for Liu Bei to coordinate relations within the army.
After seeing Liu Bei off, Guo Hao felt helpless as he looked at the unconscious Chen Xi. He hoped that the backlash period would pass soon, as the domestic integration would all depend on Chen Xi's planning.
There are too many uncertainties in things like war, and the stronger the national strength, the better.
In a fight, unless you can kill your opponent with one punch, the rest depends entirely on your ruthlessness. When two people swing their fists at each other, whoever can withstand more blows wins.
The current situation of the Han Dynasty and the Northern Huns is actually the same. Both are the type that cannot afford to lose. Once they put all their efforts into a battle and lose, they will fall apart and exit the imperial sequence.
There is no way. Although Guo Hao has suppressed the world now, he is still far from truly controlling the world.
He did not have complete control over Yizhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Jiaozhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, Yuzhou and Yanzhou. At most, he controlled some of the troops and generals sent by the locals. There was still a long way to go before he could integrate the local forces.
However, correspondingly, the reason why Guo Hao was able to conquer the world was because he had more than one million troops who had been baptized by war.
As long as there are no problems with these one million troops, it is only a matter of time before other large states are annexed and integrated by Guo Hao.
Therefore, many noble families are now either trying to create trouble for Guo Hao and hinder his unification so as to wait for the opportunity to turn the tables, or they are secretly planning to sell out their companions and use other noble families as a means of promotion.
The contest of force is easy to deal with. Guo Hao's army is approaching, and anyone who disobeys will be killed.
But these noble families will cause you economic and civil disputes, which is disgusting anyway. That is why the counselors in the Government Affairs Hall are so busy.
The aristocratic families know very well what problems need to be handled by advisers, and they also know very well what problems can be handled by local officials, so they always use that boundary to make trouble, which is disgusting.
But it's just disgusting. There are too many advisers in the Government Affairs Hall. How can the tricks of the aristocratic families be able to defeat them? What's more, people like Xun Yu are representatives of the largest aristocratic families and they know the methods of the aristocratic families very well.
The biggest problem facing Guo Hao's team right now is actually internal competition, or more accurately, competition for credit.
Since everyone is at the same level, status becomes the key factor in determining victory or defeat.
If Lu Su had served as prime minister, it would not have been impossible for him to suppress Xun Yu.
If they are not in the same system, they will rely on their own means, but if they are in the same system, the level of status becomes one of the determining factors.
Today, the internal competition in the Government Affairs Department is all about fighting for power and profit, but it is just healthy competition and has not developed into mutual attacks.
In fact, it is because we are all smart people. Using shady tricks will only reveal bigger flaws. Only real achievements are the right way.
Many people even wanted to compete with Chen Xi. After all, Chen Xi just took the lead in a big plan, and it was not impossible for them to surpass Chen Xi.
