Chapter 978 Confirmation of Reward (Part 2)

The commander of the combat group and the commander of the combat battalion are followed by the deputy commanders of each combat battalion. There are thirteen combat battalions, among which Huang Zhong's Shenwu Battalion, Zhao Yun's Longxiang Battalion and Huang Xu's Hekong Battalion each have two deputy commanders, while Kong Xin's Xuanwu Battalion has not yet been equipped with a deputy commander, so there are a total of fifteen deputy commanders, plus Zhao Cen, Chen Jing, Hu Yandu and Dugu Xiong of the Guards, and the commanders of the four naval battalions, a total of twenty-three people, all of whom were appointed as fourth-rank officials.

They are General Fenwei Liu Pi, General Zhenwu Li Li, General Zhenwei Dong Fang, General Jianwu Yang Feng, General Fenwu Min Chun, General Yangwei Zuo Xiao, General Yangwu Lu Zhong, General Guangwei Guo Da, General Ningshuo Li Le, General Guangwu Han Xian, General Zuo Jishe Mu Shun, General You Jishe Guan Hai, General Zuo Jinu Liu Yi, General You Jinu Zhao Yu, General Qiangnu Zhang An, General Jianyi Zhonglang Zhao Cen, General Fengyi Zhonglang Chen Jing, General Pinglu Zhonglang Hu Yandu, General Dianjun Zhonglang Dugu Xiong, General Hengjiang Zhou Tai, General Louchuan Jiang Qin, General Fubo Pan Feng, General Zhenhai Zhou Yi, they will be the third level of the army.

Below are the commanders of the counties. At present, in addition to the original eight commanders of the counties under the jurisdiction of the Zhengdong Army, there are three commanders under the jurisdiction of Yuzhou who are still appointed by Kong Ju, and there is no suitable personnel for the commander of Lujiang for the time being. Huangfu Chaobo was not satisfied with the original three commanderies of Yuzhou, mainly because these people were indeed limited in ability, basically equivalent to Chen Jing and others before they changed their jobs. This time Huangfu Chaobo was ready to take this opportunity to replace them all.

After repeated consideration, Huangfu Chaobo decided to appoint Lu Zhong, the eldest son of Lu Zhi, as the fake commander of Chen State, Xu Zhen, the eldest son of Xu Rong, as the fake commander of Runan, Huangfu Ren, the eldest son of Huangfu Jianshou, as the fake commander of Lujiang, and Hua Yao, the eldest son of Hua Xiong, as the fake commander of Yingchuan.

After this series of appointments, Huangfu Chaobo suddenly found that the second generation of generals and officials of the Eastern Expedition Army had come to the fore and began to stand alone. However, all four were appointed as fake commanders, and Huangfu Chaobo asked them to take office after the start of the war next year.

Among the rewards this time, only the original commanderies of the twelve counties, plus Zhou Shi, the commander of the eight passes in Luoyang, and the two brothers Dugu Ba and Dugu Tian, ​​as well as the leading lieutenants of each battle camp, were appointed as the post of the fifth-rank general. There are two special cases, that is, Han Wei, the county lieutenant of Shuanghe City, and Liu He, the county lieutenant of Qingdao City. They both hold the post of county lieutenant with the post of school lieutenant, so their official positions are also of the fifth rank.

Below the lieutenants of each county are the chief general of Yuzhou Mountain Town, Yang Hu, the garrison commander of Xiabancheng Town, Hao Jian, the garrison commander of Shuangluan Town, Meng Yuan, and the county lieutenants of each county town, all of whom are appointed as school lieutenants or generals of the fifth rank.

From this, it can be seen that Huangfu Chaobo has completely outlined the promotion path of the generals of the Zheng'an Army, making it more clear at a glance.

Below him are the chief generals of each combat group army, and then the military divisions of each group army, and then the chief generals of each battalion, the deputy generals of each battalion, the county lieutenants, the school lieutenants of each combat battalion, and the county lieutenants, one level at a time, clearly distinguished. Another point is that from this, it can be seen that the status of the combat battalion is higher than that of the garrison battalion.

For example, the deputy general of the war camp may command fewer troops than the county lieutenant, but his rank is one level higher. There is also the lieutenant of the war camp, who commands the same number of troops as the county lieutenant of the county, but the official position of the lieutenant of the war camp is also one level higher than that of the county lieutenant.

As for the civil officials, there are not so many troubles. It is nothing more than the arrangement of officials at the state, county and county levels. At present, the sphere of influence of the Eastern Expedition Army has not changed much, so there is no need to make any adjustments in personnel. However, Huangfu Chaobo still rewarded the officials of the internal affairs department with materials to make up for the shortcomings of the slow promotion of officials of the internal affairs department.

But Huangfu Chaobo believes that after conquering the territory of Cao Cao's army, there will be a lot of official positions to be scattered, and at that time, the officials of the internal affairs department will not be dissatisfied.

It took nearly four days for Huangfu Chaobo to finally determine the rewards for the generals,

which made him breathe a sigh of relief. It was already the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, and in two days it would be the New Year's Eve. Huangfu Chaobo was also ready to relax himself and take some time to spend with his family.

Huangfu Chaobo could rest, but his subordinates did not. Huangfu Chaobo had confirmed and agreed to all the rewards for the soldiers, so both the local government and the generals in the army were busy dealing with this matter. According to Huangfu Chaobo's requirements, the rewards for the soldiers and the pensions for the wounded and injured soldiers must be completed before the New Year, so the Zhengdong Army was basically busy with this matter.

You know, the Huainan war lasted for nearly two weeks, and the Zhengdong Army lost nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses. With such a huge number of losses, the related follow-up matters were very large. Fortunately, Xu Shu had already started to deal with this matter when the army returned. He led his subordinates and spent more than a month to finally deal with it all before the New Year's Eve, and then handed it over to Huangfu Chaobo for final review, and then quickly issued it to various departments and counties for execution.

Time soon arrived at the New Year's Eve. This time, Huangfu Chaobo did not gather everyone together for dinner. Instead, he hid in the backyard and ate with Mi Huan, his two daughters, and his son and daughter. Even Dian Wei and others were sent home by Huangfu Chaobo to accompany his wife and children.

On December 25th, the meeting was about to begin. This was the last meeting of the Eastern Expedition Army before the New Year. After this meeting, all government offices would be closed, leaving only a few people on duty to handle urgent government affairs. Others would take a 20-day holiday, starting from the 26th until the 16th of the first lunar month, and all government offices would start to open normally to handle official business.

Early in the morning, Huangfu Chaobo rushed to the meeting hall. This was a small meeting hall that could only accommodate dozens of people. It was located behind the meeting hall in the front yard of the Marquis's Mansion. It was a relatively secret place. Under normal circumstances, small-scale high-level secret meetings of the Eastern Expedition Army would be held here.

This place was located behind the meeting hall. It was an independent small building. The first floor was the meeting hall, and the second floor was Huangfu Chaobo's study outside the Eastern Expedition General. Most of the military affairs of the Eastern Expedition Army were handled here.

The distance of dozens of steps around the meeting hall had been surrounded by the Guards. No one could get close without Huangfu Chaobo's consent. Inside the hall, the guards had already lit pots of charcoal fire, and the whole small hall was as warm as spring.
