The military camp covers an area of about 500 acres, and is part of the Shen Ce military camp of Yu Chaoen, after the disbandment of Yu Chaoen's Shen Ce army, the large military camp was divided into five slightly smaller military camps, which were used as temporary military camps for various army gatherings, and 10,000 Ganzhou reinforcements occupied the second military camp.

Guo Song and his entourage entered the barracks, and the camp, like the outside, was covered with snow, and the training ground was covered with thick snow, and it could be seen that this army had never been trained.

Li Nan was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly explained: "It has only been ten days since the army was transferred from various places, and there are no major generals, they are all directly commanded by the captains, and they are currently managed by officials from the military department, and they have no training experience, mainly to maintain order and ensure that the army is not chaotic." ”

Guo Song smiled slightly: "It's normal to train less in winter, you can't train at all in the winter in Fengzhou, the snow is deep to the thighs, and you can recuperate all winter, these soldiers usually work hard, and I have no opinion on resting for a month or two in winter." ”

"The Governor is very considerate of the soldiers!" Li Nan appreciated.

"It's not easy for everyone, although the soldiers have a humble status, they all have to support their families, of course, I will not condone some of the bad habits of the army, once I take over this army, I have to follow my rules."

"It's inevitable, and we can all understand it."

Guo Song nodded and asked, "How to solve the logistics supply?" ”

"It will be provided by the Bashang Logistics Battalion, and a specific logistics officer will report to the Governor later."

The two approached the big tent, and at this time, several officials came out of the tent, all dressed as civil officials, and they greeted them, and someone laughed and said: "Li Langzhong, is my mission coming to an end?" ”

At present, the official in charge of this army is the military department staff Fang Shilang Zhongshang Guan Qi, although he is a civilian official, he is very rugged, with a big beard and a very loud voice.

"Shangguan Langzhong, let me introduce you."

Li Nan pointed at Guo Song and said, "This is Guo Song, the newly appointed governor of Ganzhou, you should know." ”

"I've heard the name of Fengzhou Guo Envoy for a long time!" Shangguan Qi bowed his hand to Guo Song and smiled.

Guo Song also replied, "Shangguan Langzhong has worked hard these days, and I hope Shangguan Langzhong will take care of it!" ”

"You're welcome! Let me introduce the officials to Guo Dudu. ”

Shangguan Qi introduced more than a dozen civilian officials to Guo Song one by one, although the middle-level generals have not yet been in place, but the civilian officials are fully equipped, including recording the affairs to join the army, six Cao to join the army, logistics officers, etc., a total of seventeen officials, most of them are low-level officials below the seventh grade.

Guo Song entered the tent under the crowd of everyone, and under the witness of Li Nan, Guo Song and Shangguan Qi handed over the military power, and at this time, more than 30 captains also rushed to the big tent.

The big tent was full of people, Guo Song sat on the handsome seat, and everyone whispered, not knowing who this young general was?

"Everyone, be quiet!"

Shangguan Qi shouted, the big tent quieted down, and he said to everyone: "This is the governor of Ganzhou just appointed by the saint, Guo Dudu was the assassin of Fengzhou and the envoy of the three towns before, he once went to Anxi as a messenger of the Son of Heaven, in Li Lingyao's rebellion, led the army to defeat Li Zhengji's army in Xuzhou, and has rich experience in leading troops and combat, this time he is also ordered to lead everyone to resist the invasion of the Shatuo people in Hexi, everyone salutes!" ”

It turned out that the young coach was the famous Guo Song, and everyone knelt down on one knee and saluted, "See Guo Dudu!" ”

"Generals, please get up!"

Guo Song invited everyone to get up, and said slowly: "I am Guo Song, this time the Son of Heaven appointed me as the governor of Ganzhou, and I will fight for the country with you in the future, at present, the middle-level generals are not yet in place, so I will temporarily directly command you, I can understand the hardships of the low-level generals and soldiers, and I can also know that everyone has to support their families, it is not easy, everyone knows that I have paid more than 100,000 yuan out of my own pocket to compensate the fallen soldiers, that is not a rumor, but a real thing."

I Guo Song will never be stingy with the soldiers, nor will I favor anyone, but to speak with military merits, I will definitely strive for the military merit rewards I should get, even if I offend Xiangguo for the third time, in a word, I will treat everyone well, but on the other hand, the rules are strict, the army has the rules of the army, my Guo Song's rules are normal military regulations, but do not follow the form, strict implementation, when I entered the camp, I found that there was thick snow on the martial arts field, in the barracks, such snow should not appear, so, The first thing I will tell you is to clear the snow in the martial arts arena and join the army! ”

"Humble duty!"

A civilian official walked out in response, he was Cangcao and Wu Tong.

"Do you have snow clearing tools in the warehouse?"

"There were brooms with bamboo branches, thousands of them, and shovels."

"You hand out all the snowplowing tools, go distribute them now."

"Obey!"

Wu Tong hurriedly went out of the tent, and Guo Song said to the lieutenants: "It's still early, let all the soldiers come out to clear the snow, early tomorrow morning, beat the drum and gather the troops at three o'clock, I hope I won't be caught, and I will use it to make an example, go!" ”

Everyone was awe-struck and bowed together, "Obey!" ”

The captains turned around and left the tent one after another, and at this time, Li Nan and Shangguan Qi said goodbye and left, and Guo Song sent them out of the camp, and then turned over and inspected the various military tents.

..........

The vast arena was full of soldiers clearing the snow, and the soldiers were in full swing, they cleared the snow into piles, and then transported it to the edge of the arena by small cart to pile it up.

The record is called Wang Wei, a very common name, a seven-rank civilian official transferred from Zuo Xiaowei's military office, about forty years old, with rich experience, he said to Guo Song: "Governor, I think it is necessary for us to form a military law team, about fifty people, what does the governor think?" ”

Guo Song nodded, "I also have this idea, I want to hear your opinion." ”

"The recommendation for the humiliation is recommended by each lieutenant, each of whom can recommend two soldiers, and it is required to strictly abide by discipline and show no favoritism, and I believe that each lieutenant will recommend the best soldiers to come."

Guo Song thought about it and agreed, "Yes, please ask Wang to join the army to arrange this matter, it is best to set it up today, and carry out the supervision task early tomorrow morning." ”

..........

That night, Guo Song set up a military law team, consisting of a total of 60 soldiers, and Guo Song ordered Kang Bao to serve as the head of the team, and their weapons were a horizontal knife and a long stick made of jujube wood.

At three o'clock the next day, that is, at half past six, the sky was not yet bright, the rumbling drums in the barracks were beating, and the soldiers rushed to the martial arts arena from all directions, and the captains all said in advance, not to be caught typical, and to make an example of a hundred, so the soldiers basically did not dare to take off their armor and sleep, many soldiers did not even take off their shoes, and as soon as the drum sounded, they picked up their long knives and ran to the outside of the big tent.

The soldiers on the martial arts arena were rapidly lined up, each lieutenant stood in the first place, and his subordinates lined up behind him, so that it was easy to identify, and after the beating of fifty drums, all 10,000 troops had been lined up.

At this time, Kang Bao rushed from the big tent with the military law soldiers and reported to Guo Songyu: "Governor Qiyu, there are no more soldiers in the big tent, and all the soldiers have been listed. ”

This result surprised Guo Song slightly, it seems that the training level of this army is better than he expected, and it is indeed the elite drawn from various armies.

He nodded, walked on the high platform, Guo Song glanced at the army, and said loudly: "From today on, I am your commander, who am I, everyone should know, what happened to me, everyone should also have heard about it, I want to tell everyone, I will take care of the interests of every soldier, and will not let everyone live aggrieved, but I also have strict requirements for military discipline, and only strict military discipline is the guarantee of victory in the war........."

Guo Song gave an impassioned speech to 10,000 soldiers, and the soldiers were engrossed, and everyone held their heads high and listened very carefully.

..........

In the room of Xiangguo in Zhongshu Province, Xiangguo Chang Gon listened to the report of Taichang Qing Liu Tuo expressionlessly while drinking tea.

"The first emperor's water and land festival is scheduled to officially start tomorrow, the time is nine hundred and eighty-one days, and then the burial, during this period, we require the military and civilians of Chang'an to wear vegetarian clothes, abstain from meat, and it is not suitable for wedding celebrations, but as far as the humble officials know, there are still some discordant voices in the court, and some people ignore the first emperor's funeral and do happy things for themselves."

Chang Gon put the teacup on the table and said very unhappily: "Who is still doing happy events against the wind?" ”

"This person is actually familiar with Xiangguo, Guo Song, does Xiangguo still remember him?"

This name made Chang Gon's eyelids jump suddenly, and a trace of vigilance rose in his heart, he picked up the teacup again, and said slowly: "I know about this matter, I will send someone to investigate, if there is nothing else, you can go back!" ”

Liu Tuo didn't see Chang Gon's anger, and he was really a little disappointed in his heart, so he got up and said goodbye.
