Chapter 177 Official Sealing and Celebration Banquet
The order that the Luoyang court decided to appoint Chu Tian as the prime minister of Langya soon spread from Luoyang to Xiacheng.
With his own strength and Mi Zhu's bribes, Chu Tian obtained the position of Prime Minister of Langya State, and with this came the imperial edict ordering him to attack the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou as soon as possible.
Together with Chu Tian, the princes who were responsible for the crusade against the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army included the Qingzhou prefect Jiaohe, Beihai Xiang Kong Rong's Qingzhou army, Yanzhou prefect Liu Dai, the Yanzhou army of Dongjun prefect Cao Cao, and Xuzhou prefect Tao Qian's Xuzhou army. There are three state armies.
The governor of Qingzhou, Jiaohe, like Kong Rong, lacked the ability to lead troops to fight. Qingzhou had a lot of Han troops, and their weapons were still sharp, but they were beaten by the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans and fled.
The Qingzhou Army could not count on it.
The court paid more attention to the Yanzhou and Xuzhou troops.
"Cao Cao, the prefect of Dongjun..."
Chutian has never seen Cao Cao, the number one figure in the early stage of the Three Kingdoms. Tao Qian, Yuan Shao, Lü Bu, Yuan Shu, Wuhuan, and Ma Chao all collapsed like an avalanche in front of Cao Cao.
And now, with the help of players, Cao Cao is stronger than in history.
The only ones who can contain Cao Cao are Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, and a few player lords.
"Congratulations to your lord for being promoted to the Prime Minister of Langya!"
A group of officials came to celebrate.
Chutian now wants to consider the matter of appointing his subordinates.
In the past, the territory was not large, and one person could often hold several positions concurrently, and there was not even a clear division of positions. After becoming the Prime Minister of Langya, he could appoint a group of officials by himself.
There are official positions under the Prime Minister of Langya, and Chutian can also set up some virtual positions.
First of all, it is necessary to confirm the long history. Changshi is equivalent to the county chief, assisting the Prime Minister of Langya in handling internal affairs, and is the second-in-command after the Prime Minister.
Chu Tian chose Fang Xuanling to be the chief secretary among Fang Xuanling, Xia Xia Liang, and Li Kui.
Chang Shi was under the greatest pressure and had to deal with other officials. Therefore, Fang Xuanling, who was highly intelligent and political, was better served as Chang Shi.
Fang Xuanling served as the Chief History Officer and the Gong Cao Shi, and the Gong Cao Shi was responsible for assessing the merits of various officials.
Chutian had promised Xia Xialiang to appoint her as Chang Shi, and as compensation, Chu Tian ordered her to be Kaiyang Ling, Shi Cao Shi, and Chief Secretary Shi Shi.
For this appointment, Xia Xia Liang readily accepted. She also didn't want to take on too much pressure.
In fact, the power of the Kaiyang decree is very large. The city Cao Shi manages the market and city taxes. As for the chief recorder's history, he mainly helps Chutian arrange meetings and record...
Chutian has to hold a meeting every time before making important decisions.
Then there was Li Kui, who was appointed by Chutian as Diannong Duwei, Fa Cao Shi, and Hu Cao Shi to manage agriculture, law, and household registration.
In addition to these three people, Chutian also established positions such as Thief Cao Shi, Cang Cao Shi, and Wubu Postmaster, all of which were held by special talents.
There are not many historical officials under Chu Tian's command, and it is impossible for every department to be managed by historical figures.
As long as Chutian controls personnel assessment, money, law, and household registration in his own hands, other administrative departments needn't worry too much.
This is a civil servant, as well as a military officer.
"Appoint Hua Mulan's Cavalry Captain."
Chutian counted Mulan's credit.
Killed Zhang Kai, the commander of the Yellow Turbans in Xuzhou, killed Zhang Liang, one of the leaders of the Yellow Turbans, shot Yang Wanchun, the city lord of Anshi, captured Zang Ba, 30,000 thieves from Mount Tai, and attacked Lingcheng at night...
And the credit for getting started in the first place.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to appoint a cavalry captain, and other generals have no objection.
Then there was Zhou Yafu, who captured the most villages and towns. Zhou Yafu also took credit for capturing Guangzong City, Langya City, blocking Xu Sheng, and participating in the defeat of Wu Sangui's army.
Xue Rengui had credit for crusades against bandits and led heavy cavalry to defeat Xu Sheng.
Li Guang participated in the first national war, the battle of Yangdu County, beheaded the Prime Minister of Langya, and worshipped the Sima.
Xu Sheng surrendered, and he had the credit for defeating Wu Sangui, and he also commanded the navy battalion and worshipped the Sima of the other department.
Zang Ba worshipped the Sima of the other divisions, and Sun Guan, Sun Kang, Yin Li, Wu Dun and others worshipped the fake Sima of the army, and served as the lieutenants of Zang Ba, Xu Sheng, Li Guang, Zhou Yafu and others.
Among the military attachés, Hua Mulan and Zhou Yafu, who have the longest qualifications, have the highest official positions. Xue Rengui was only a miscellaneous captain because he did not have enough credit.
Li Guang, Xu Sheng, and Zang Ba are Sima of other divisions and can have independent divisions.
Hua Mulan still commanded Chutian's most trusted cavalry, and actually had a lot of power.
Chutian canonized the official position, so that his subordinates can finally exercise their powers justifiably.
Zang Ba's original official position was Captain of the Cavalry. His official position was assigned to Hua Mulan by Chu Tian, and Zang Ba was convinced because Zang Ba was once defeated by Hua Mulan.
Chutian can make him the Sima of other ministries, which is already an emphasis on him.
There were also a few Taishan thieves who were disrupted by Chutian, and were then incorporated into various units to serve as lieutenants.
Before the crusade against Dong Zhuo began, Duwei and Sima were not low-ranking officials. As for Colonel and Zhonglang, they were middle and high-ranking officials in the entire Eastern Han region, which were rare at this time.
But after Dong Zhuo kidnapped the emperor, the official position was worthless, and there were captains, generals and even princes everywhere.
"Zhou Yafu guards Juxian with 3,000 Xiliu battalions and 5,000 infantry archers. If the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army goes south, Zhou Yafu will take the lead in blocking the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans' front. The lieutenant will be Yin Li."
Chutian plans to recruit 1,000 new soldiers from the Xiliu Battalion for Zhou Yafu to strengthen the strength of Zhou Yafu's troops.
After annexing Ju County, Dong'an County, Dongguan County, and Jiqiu County, Chutian gained a large number of people and money, and only then did he consider adding soldiers to Zhou Yafu.
Zhou Yafu guarded it, and Jucheng, which he defended, might not be able to capture even a hundred thousand Yellow Turbans.
"Zang Ba originally had 3,000 infantry archers, but the number increased to 5,000. He moved from Yangdu County to Dong'an County. His lieutenant, Sun Guan, guarded Dongguan County with 2,000 soldiers."
Chutian assigned a total of 5,000 ordinary infantrymen to Zang Ba and Sun Guan, guarding the two county towns and serving as horns with Zhou Yafu.
If the Yellow Turbans wanted to attack Xiacheng, they must first capture the three cities of Ju, Dongguan and Dong'an.
The three cities are the first line of defense built by Chutian.
The second line of defense consists of the three cities of Yangdu, Xueyue and Langya.
"Bai Xueyue is the commander of Yangdu, Sun Kang and Wu Dun are lieutenants, commanding 7000 soldiers, guarding Yangducheng and Xueyuecheng. Liu Sandao is the captain of Kaiyang County, commanding 3000 soldiers to guard Langya City."
Chutian built the first line of defense with 13,000 people, and the second line of defense with 10,000 people, focusing on defense.
The main force was stationed in Xiacheng, commanded by Chu Tian and several generals.
The Hua Mulan Department commanded 200 iron eagle scouts and 4,000 cavalry.
Xue Rengui, commanded 200 Tang Dynasty elite archers, 500 light cavalry, and a small number of heavy cavalry.
Li Guang, commander of 200 Western Han frontier archers, 500 light cavalry, and 3000 crossbowmen.
Chutian personally managed 2,000 Shesheng battalions and 5,000 infantry. It is planned to recruit a new 1,000-strong Shooting Battalion.
The main force of Xiacheng is about 16,000 people.
In addition to this, there is an expanded naval battalion.
According to Xu Sheng's request, Chutian plans to expand the navy battalion from 500 to 2,000, and at the same time upgrade to a fourth-level shipyard to produce warships.
These regular armies do not include ordinary city defense troops and patrols to catch thieves.
With the territory of Chutian and the current development of the territory, it is actually very difficult to support the regular army of 41,000, as well as a number of city defense troops and patrolling.
There are also a large number of war horses that need to be raised, and a large number of weapons and armors that need to be replaced.
After all the official positions have been canonized and the defense areas of the Sima of various ministries have been determined, Chutian can sit back and relax for the time being.
The Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army wanted to reach Xiacheng, but there were six cities in the north of Xiacheng blocking it.
At this time, the roads of Langya country were not easy to reach. If you wanted to bypass the six northern cities and attack Xiacheng, you might be attacked by the defenders of the six cities and cut off the food route.
This is the importance of cities and fortresses, to block the enemy's advance with fortified cities.
Chutian judged that in less than a year and a half, the Yellow Turban Army of Qingzhou would not be able to capture the six northern cities.
Chutian specially held a banquet to entertain the heroes and announced the appointment. Everyone was very happy when they got the official position.
At the celebration banquet, Hua Mulan drank a few more glasses. However, Hua Mulan's wine is very good, not drunk, but more taciturn.
Xia Xia Liang was the opposite of Hua Mulan. After drinking, her face became hot and her ears were red.
Zhou Yafu and Zang Ba were called back to attend the celebration banquet.
Yin Li, Sun Kang, Wu Dun and several other thieves from Mount Tai also participated in the feast. Compared with other people, this group of Tarzan thieves speak rudely and act rudely, but they can liven up the atmosphere.
"I didn't expect that the one who defeated me that day was just a female class."
Wu Dun couldn't help feeling emotional when he saw Xia Liang who defeated him with 3,000 recruits in Liangshan Town.
The lord's mansion was snowing heavily, and more than ten historical heroes gathered in the lord's mansion.
Even Du Fu was asked to come to the celebration banquet at the lord's mansion to witness the establishment of the first group of civil servants and generals in Langya Kingdom.
Chutian's team is mainly based on the heroes of various dynasties recruited by the recruitment order, followed by the Taishan thieves.
The celebration feast continued until late at night.
Many fierce generals were drunk and staggered, and Li Guang was lying on the ground holding the wine jar.
Even Mulan was lying on the wooden table.
As the lord, Chutian, every civil servant and military commander came down to toast, and Chutian was immediately unconscious.
The only people who survived at the scene were civil servants, their faces were hot, and the summer was cold when everyone dared not drink alcohol.
"It's really a headache... Why did Fang Xuanling and Mulan's sister fall down..."
Xia Xia Liang was so excited that they all fell down because they controlled the Langya Kingdom, and could not help but have a headache. This is probably the happiness of men.
She thought that Fang Xuanling, as a military adviser, would not be so rash, but today Fang Xuanling seems to have lost his temper.
"Come on."
Xia Xia Liang called the guards of the lord's mansion.
The bodyguards of the lord's mansion generally follow Chu Tian's orders or Xue Rengui's orders directly, but under the premise that Chu Tian is unconscious, he will also obey the more familiar Xia Xian Liang's orders.
"You bring your lords back to their residences... General Hua Mulan will stay."
Xia Xia Liang thought that Mulan was special, so he didn't let the guards take it away.
So the guards of the lord's mansion carried Fang Xuanling, Xue Rengui, Li Guang and others away.
Fang Xuanling opened his eyes intentionally or unintentionally and glanced at it, seeing someone taking care of the aftermath, so he fell back to sleep with peace of mind.
Xia Xia Liang underestimated Fang Xuanling's IQ. Fang Xuanling's intelligence has now reached 95.
At present, only Chu Tian and Hua Mulan, who had fallen asleep, were left in the lord's mansion, as well as the only awake Xia Liang.
Xia Xia Liang had no choice but to carry Chu Tian and Hua Mulan to the bedroom in the back hall.
"I should go in the direction of the general, it's really tiring..."
Xia Liang, who had chosen the direction of Wenchen, was panting.
Put Hua Mulan on Chutian's bed to take care of together.
"Next..."
In the summer, when the two of them smelled of alcohol, they had to make a fire to keep them warm.
It was snowing heavily outside the lord's mansion, and now it was the cold winter and twelfth lunar month.
...
The next day, Chu Tian woke up with a splitting headache. He was drunk by more than a dozen subordinates. He had completely forgotten what happened last night, and only remembered to hold a celebration feast.
Chu Tian felt that his usual couch was a bit crowded, and suddenly found that Hua Mulan in casual clothes was sleeping on his bed, her delicate body slightly curled up.
No way……
Chu Tian had the impression that he did nothing.
What shocked Chutian even more was that Kaiyangling, Shi Cao Shi, and Shi Xianliang, the chief secretary, were lying on the side of the bed, only three feet away from him.
"..."
Chutian had to desperately recall what happened last night, but the result...was blank.
Drunk wrong.
Chu Tian vowed never to hold such a celebration feast again, even if he became a Xuzhou shepherd.
Chutian seemed to have done something wrong, lightly trying to escape from this place. He also found that his clothes had been changed, and the alcohol smell on his body was not so strong.
Xia Xia Liang seemed to be awakened by Chu Tian's movement, yawned slightly and rubbed his eyes: "Lord Lord, are you awake?"
"Do you remember what happened last night?"
"Of course I do. Don't worry, you didn't do anything. Your subordinates placed you here just to take care of you and General Mulan."
"That's good..."
Chu Tian is not so embarrassed now.
"My lord, please don't be too aggressive next time. You have to go to Luoyang to discuss the crusade against the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans with Qingzhou Inspector, Xuzhou Inspector, Beihai Prime Minister, Chenliu Prefect and others."
Summer cool reminds Chutian itinerary.
Chu Tian remembered that this was indeed the case. In order to crusade the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou, the princes who received the order from the imperial court planned to discuss in Luoyang - each county has a teleportation array leading to Luoyang.
Now Chutian, in a sense, is already a prince.
"After noon, get up and head to Luoyang."
Chu Tian thought that he could see Cao Cao, Liu Dai, Kong Rong, Tao Qian and other princes in Luoyang. So far, Chutian has seen Liu Bei, but not Cao Cao and Sun Jian.
Chutian also has the characteristics of a monarch, but unfortunately it played little role in the Eastern Han civil war.
Xia Liang went to make tea for Chutian again, leaving Chutian alone in the room.
Hua Mulan was awakened by the movement of the two, and she opened her eyes dimly, only to find herself lying on Chutian's bed with her clothes changed, while the lord stood by the bed, her body froze.
Afraid of scaring Hua Mulan, Chu Tian pretended to be calm: "Listen to my explanation..."
