Han counter current

Gao Zhong's expression is very serious. At this age, this guy has such a majesty and demeanor, and he can be called a little pervert.

"I have a few things to discuss with you. Apart from you, I really don't know who to talk to. Please give me some advice.

You told me before that because of the war in the Central Plains, many scholars from the Central Plains were displaced here. I want you to find these capable people in the shortest possible time, and then take them for your own use.

In addition, the Jiaozhou Navy and Jiangdong Navy that we surrendered totaled more than 1 people. This is not a small number, and even this number has already threatened our safety.

I plan to disrupt and reorganize these people separately, and then select 2000 people from the Jiaozhou Navy and 2000 from the Jiangdong Navy.

In addition, with two thousand young and strong recruits I recruited from Qingxu, they will be trained first, and they will be your subordinates in the future. "

"What? Me? General, you, are you right? You want me to lead the troops?"

Shen Xuan's eyes widened. He seemed unsure that Gao Zhong would give him such a task, even though he said that Jiangdong Navy and Jiaozhou Navy were captured soldiers.

But they are also regular troops. As long as they can subdue these people, they can definitely become important generals in the army. This is a real military power.

Moreover, Gao Zhong also matched him with two thousand Qingxu recruits, which was definitely to make up for the lack of a single unit of arms, that is to say, Gao Zhong sincerely wanted him to take charge of the military power.

"General, why is this? You are the supreme general of the three armies. Wouldn't it be better for these people to be in command of you?"

"No, there are too many soldiers and horses under my control, please help me. I'm afraid, if this continues, I will not be able to hold on."

Gao Zhong's face was calm, as if he was talking about an ordinary thing, but Shen Xuan heard other meanings from this sentence.

There are too many soldiers and horses, how many are there?

There are now more than 3000 pirates who have come to surrender, more than 1 Shanyue young and strong recruits, and more than 6000 regular army officers and soldiers brought from Youzhou.

In addition to these, there were six or seven thousand young and strong recruited from Qingxu, and more than 1000 prisoners were captured during the battle.

These numbers add up to no less than 5 people, and, behind these numbers, there are all strong young people. What kind of concept is this?

Strong and strong men, that is the most precious resource in this era.As long as Gao Zhong can completely recover them and give them armor and weapons, they can become warriors.

Give them tools and oxen, and they will become food farmers.If you give them a group of women, they will really breed a nation.

That is to say, if Gao Zhong really has full power to command these soldiers and horses, and he is now located in Jiaozhou, as long as he wants to be independent at any time, then he is a prince, and he is not a small prince.

I am afraid that even Sun Quan would not dare to speak loudly to his new neighbor.As long as he is willing, Gao Zhong can go to Jiangdong at any time to ask Sun Quan for some money.

As for Sun Quan, unless he used all his troops in Jiangdong and spent countless supplies to encircle and suppress Gao Zhong.Otherwise, he would obediently offer what Gao Zhong needed, and then greet him politely.

Gao Zhong didn't expect that so many things would happen when he came here from Liaodong, and he even didn't expect that these wars that were not planned in the first place would bring him such great benefits.

The world is unpredictable, and I am afraid that now is the best explanation.Gao Zhong is too young, and his experience and vision are still too little. If Chen Feng hadn't instructed him at the beginning, he probably wouldn't have come to Jiaozhou to start a war.

However, he also knows that he is too young and needs to learn a lot. The current situation is quite special. If he is in charge of so many soldiers, he may have a very difficult life in the future.

Even if no one would say anything now, the root of the disaster must have been planted.In the future, it might explode, and no one can stop it.

Quiet, the hall was completely silent for a while.Indeed, the current situation was too unexpected, no one expected it to become like this, after a while, Shen Xuan finally spoke.

"I understand. If this is the case, then I will take over these soldiers and horses. I don't know what arrangements the general has for the remaining soldiers and horses."

"Except for the best group of pirates, the returned pirates can never be accepted into the army. They can only be pirates forever."

For his subordinates, Gao Zhong had already made complete arrangements.Otherwise, he would not have said such words at this time.

As for those pirates, how to arrange them to achieve the best results.Gao Zhong also knew it well, at least, he would not let these pirates delay him.

Chapter 262 Continuing to Advance South 2

Don't think about victory, think about defeat first.This is Gao Zhong's motto in doing things.Because of his situation, he had to think about a lot.

Gao Zhong seems to have thought of everything long ago. This young man has always considered everything in such a comprehensive way. He has to think clearly about every link.

"There are more than [-] Shanyue elite soldiers, Shamoke is in command of three thousand, I am in command of four thousand, and I have my own plans for the rest.

All the cavalry under my command are commanded by Lu Lingqi. In addition, she also commands the female battalion of [-] female soldiers and [-] young Xu Jingrui.

The rest of the soldiers and horses under my direct command are the camps under my command, [-] naval officers and soldiers I brought from Youzhou, and [-] naval officers and soldiers reorganized from Jiangdong Navy and Jiaozhou Navy.

As for the more than 1 pirates, they are still under my command. That's it, that's it, I can save a lot of trouble, so I have to trouble you a lot. "

"General, with all due respect, why do you do this? Since my lord entrusts you with such an important task, it must be because I trust you very much.

Of course, the development of things exceeded our expectations, but so what?The lord will still not have any doubts about you. "

"A lot of times, many things, it's not enough for me and my adoptive father to know. I can't embarrass my adoptive father. Besides, after distributing the troops in this way, I can command the soldiers with more confidence?"

"Next, we will attack Jiuzhen and Rinan, and then we will attack those countries in Funan.

At that time, we will recruit more soldiers and horses, reorganize more prisoners, dare to ask the general, what do you plan to do then?

It can't be said that the general has no intention of continuing to take prisoners, hehe, although the population of those places is small, if we want to take them down, we still have to face a lot of enemy troops. "

"Hehe, I mentioned this matter in the letter I wrote to my adoptive father last time. He will consider it for me. I don't need to worry about these troublesome things."

"So, hey, although I am a literati, I also know the words of loyalty, righteousness and courage. Don't worry, general, I will share these responsibilities for you."

"Thank you."

In order to avoid suspicion and avoid many unnecessary troubles, Gao Zhong himself adjusted the arrangement of his troops.

In his opinion, now is the rising period of his adoptive father's career, and nothing should delay the great cause of his adoptive father.

With Shen Xuan assisting Gao Zhong to take over Jiaozhou, the local people don't feel very repulsive to this foreign army. No matter who comes to occupy Jiaozhou, as long as they can make ordinary people like them live a good life.

In fact, Gao Zhong and Shen Xuan did not disappoint the local people. After taking over Jiaozhou, Gao Zhong and Shen Xuan issued a series of orders to win the hearts of the people.

The population of Jiaozhou was counted again, and then the fields were redistributed according to the principle of distribution of [-] mu of land per capita. The local families with a bad reputation were punished, and even the oppressed people participated in these punishments.

Gao Zhong took a tolerant attitude towards those aristocratic families with good reputation and good reputation, and only asked them to hand over their redundant servants and illegally occupied land. law.

In the future, whether it is local people or businessmen, whether you are selling food or labor, there will be clear regulations, and no one will dare to cheat.

In this way, after the promulgation of laws and regulations, the local people and the businessmen of the aristocratic family cheered happily. The foundation of the scholar family in Jiaozhou was completely shaken. No one would think about the lonely scholar family or the local emperor of Jiaozhou back then.

After stabilizing Jiaozhou in the shortest possible time, Gao Zhong began to dispatch troops to prepare to go south.After all, his goal is not just a Jiaozhou.

To the south of Jiaozhou is Jiuzhen County, which used to be under the management of Jiaozhou, but there has been no plan to surrender during this time, so Gao Zhong is preparing to lead his army to attack.

As for Jiuzhen to the south, it is Rinan County, which has long been separated from the rule of the Han due to its geographical location.

Historically, when Qin Shihuang sent 50 troops to attack Lingnan, it was occupied here. When Zhao Tuo established the Nanyue Kingdom, it was his territory.

Then, during the period of the Han Dynasty's prosperity, Rinan was the site farthest from the center of the Han Dynasty's rule.It is under the jurisdiction of Jiaozhou, whether it is in name or in reality, it is the territory of the Han Dynasty.
