Faced with Fan You's request for embarrassment, Tian Xin reluctantly agreed after a little consideration.

Then he turned around and followed Fan You back to the camp area where another battalion of Yi soldiers was stationed, and the Yi soldiers in the camp sat on the ground in twos and threes, without making any noise, and looked like they were not cooperating or resisting.

Guan Yu is serious in governing the army, who dares to engage in incitement in the Jingcheng camp? Mutiny?

Seeing this, Tian Xin was puzzled: "Captain Fan, why don't you appoint the battalion commander?" ”

The officers of this battalion were appointed by Guan Yu, and they have been with the Yi soldiers for a long time, so they are more authoritative than themselves, and they are also trusted by Guan Yu.

Fan You does not entrust these people, but comes to himself, which has a kind of meaning of going from the south to the north and seeking the near and the far.

Fan You smiled bitterly: "There are six battalions of Yi soldiers under the command of General Dangkou, and they come from all the barbarian departments. There are two battalions in Lingling County, three battalions in Wuling County, and one battalion in Yidu County. There are many barbarians in Lingling and Wuling counties, and they are quite obedient, so these five battalions of Yi soldiers have been replaced by soldiers, and the morale of the army is stable. However, the barbarian land in Yidu County is remote, and the population is small, so it is difficult to recruit for military service, and there are few conscripts. ”

He sighed: "Originally, it was supposed to be rotated in April, but the Meng County Guard was slow to recruit new soldiers, so that it was delayed again and again, and our military officials also repeatedly lost their trust in the army. Now that the new battalion has arrived, the battle situation is getting tighter and tighter, and General Dangkou has left the old two battalions of soldiers to serve together, which has made the officers and men in the battalion dissatisfied. ”

"Now the soldiers in the camp no longer believe in us, and we have no shame to meet the soldiers in the battalion. He also hoped that the camp governor would comfort the lieutenant officers and men of the battalion, so as not to expand the incident and affect the morale of the army. ”

Fan You sighed, Tian Xin is also a big head, the credit of the chief general and the military officials is bankrupt, what role can he play?

Could it be that the barren land around Gangneung and Xiangyang is used to tempt these acquaintances?

It is impossible, now Xiangyang and Gangneung are war zones, and no matter how fertile the land is, it is not attractive.

Many barbarians and Baiyue tribes were already mixed with many people who had fled from the north, and these barbarians and Han people would rather stay in the mountains and live a hard life than be afraid of the whole family.

There is no military salary for the soldiers, and there is also a phenomenon of suppression in the way the soldiers are promoted, and it is a dangerous job to do it, and the soldiers have been dissatisfied for a long time.

The Jingzhou Legion has such a large jurisdiction, and the productivity is so small, and it has raised more than 30,000 troops, where is the extra financial resources to reward the soldiers?

Therefore, the three ways of granting land, allocating military salaries, and rewarding are useless, so there is only one left, let go of the promotion channel, and promote a group of barbarian military officials.

Yi soldiers who can be promoted to military officials must have a certain prestige, and when they serve as military officials, they naturally care about the stability of this army.

Tian Xin felt a big headache and said in embarrassment: "Captain Fan, the subordinate often hears that the soldiers are rewarded for meritorious service, but it is difficult to be promoted to a military officer. Therefore, those who are talented in the Yi soldiers are mostly centrifugal and slack. ”

Fan You looked at Tian Xin and shook his head slightly: "Anyone who is a military official must be proficient in military discipline and can lead by example." How can a soldier lead by example? And if you are not familiar with the text and do not understand the military orders, how can you be a military officer? ”

A reasonable explanation.

Tian Xin glanced at the Yi soldiers sitting in the camp: "County Captain, do extraordinary things at extraordinary times." Nowadays, only the promotion of Yiren military officials can boost the morale of the army, and this is to control Yiyi. When the fighting stops, it can be resettled. ”

Fan You still held the official seal with both hands: "The governor of Ruotian Camp is willing to represent the governor of Fan, and the two battalions of soldiers are all within the authority." ”

Seeing Fan You's anxious and sad expression, Tian Xin also knew his helplessness.

Although Liu Bei summoned him, he might also be promoted soon, but Liu Bei was too far away, and Guan Yu was in front of him.

Since Guan Yu guarded Jingzhou, he was stabbed in the back by the Wu army on the eve of the Xiangshui Alliance, and he has not suffered a loss at other times, raising more than 30,000 soldiers in the territory of two and a half counties now, surrounded by strong enemies on all sides, but the territory is barbaric and obedient, which is already very powerful, which makes Lu Xun and Lu Meng jealous.

Jingzhou Shimin and Baiman are blocked, and the materials can be efficiently invested in the military, the reason is Guan Yu's strength.

Whatever he says is what he says, which is why there is a situation in which the people of Jingzhou do not harm each other and are in good order.

Now Guan Yu wants to keep this army to continue to serve, Fan You is in a hurry to wipe his neck, and he has to deal with this battalion of soldiers properly, otherwise he doesn't want to run back to see Liu Bei.

Taishou and generals still dare not disobey Guan Yu's will, what confidence does he have as a county lieutenant?

Probably sensing Tian Xin's vacillation, Fan You raised the seal letter and bowed down again: "I implore Governor Tian Ying to put the overall situation first!" ”

"Alas, Captain Fan, the so-called desireless is rigid. Tian is determined to take revenge, and the intention of coveting military power is entangled in his heart day and night, entrusted by the county lieutenant, Tian should be under it. ”

Tian Xin also bowed down before solemnly catching the heavy seal letter from Fan You's hand, holding it with both hands, feeling heavy.

Counting the authority, he is the fake battalion governor of the Yibing Battalion appointed by Yidu County Shou Meng Da, and he is barely the direct subordinate of the county lieutenant Fan You. Liu Bei summoned Fan You, who temporarily entrusted the official seal and duties to himself, which happened to be within the law.

Using a fake camp governor to exercise the authority of the county governor of Yidu?

In less than three months, he was promoted from a white body to a lieutenant of two thousand stones?

Of course not, all of this is fake, all of which are acting temporarily.

A good job is a qualification, and if you don't do a good job, you will lose your head directly.

Under Fan You's gaze, Tian Xin entered the camp, and more than 30 black-clad soldiers gathered in front of the camp gate, most of these people hung their heads to get out of the way.

The only thing these officers could do was to block the camp gate and confine the disgruntled soldiers to the barracks, and the soldiers also exercised restraint and expressed their dissatisfaction in silence.

There is a three-foot-high wooden platform in the camp, Tian Xin strode in and stood on the high platform, holding a white silver seal in both hands, and said loudly to the Yi soldiers who looked at him: "A certain Fufeng Tian Xin, who was originally the fake battalion governor of the new conscription soldiers in Yidu County, led the new conscripted soldiers to enter the Jingcheng camp today. The county lieutenant Fan Gong was summoned by General Zuo and was leaving, so he sent me a letter. ”

He spoke slowly, saying a word in one breath, trying to make the surrounding soldiers understand: "In other words, if I let you go back to your hometown, you can return to your hometown." However, Guan Junhou is strict in governing the army, and Tian's head is difficult to protect. ”

"I won't talk to you about the righteousness of the country, just talk about how difficult it is for the people to make a living under the rule of Cao Thief."

"Cao thief is getting older, so he likes extravagance and builds a lot of buildings. After years of war, the people suffered from military service and conscription, and they were starving all over the wilderness, mourning everywhere! ”

"In order to enrich Yecheng, the capital of the country, there are 400,000 people in Hanzhong, and Cao Thief wants to move 120,000 people to Yecheng."

"My family originally wanted to survive in Hanzhong, and it was among the migrations. Before crossing the Yellow River, my parents and brother died of the epidemic, and nearly half of my companions died. ”

"You may think that your home is in the poor mountains and bad waters of Jingnan, and even if the Cao thief attacks Jingzhou, it will be difficult for you to wait."

"It would be a mistake to think so."

"The people of Qiang and Hanzhong in Wudu County also think so, but Cao Thief moved 50,000 households in Wudu and Guanzhong to Tianshui and Guanzhong!"

"For example, today, population counts!"

"Cao thief broke the Wuhuan of Youzhou and moved his people to the Central Plains and Hebei. If the Cao thief gets Jingzhou, he will move to Jingnan to enrich Hebei, go three thousand miles, ten people will go together, and nine will die for life! ”

"In the early years, Cao thieves wanted to move north to more than 100,000 households in Huainan, and 100,000 people from Huainan crossed the Yangtze River at night and depended on Jiangdong!"

"Marquis Sun Quan of Wu, over the years, he has allowed the generals to plunder Shanyue, plundered the population and used them as slaves, and he has 70,000 or 80,000 soldiers, and there are countless powerful servants in Jiangdong!"

"Looking at Guan Junhou's governance of Jingzhou, the people do not harm each other, and the people of Han Yi are not blocked. Although the strong enemy is on the side, there are no bandits and people living in peace, which depends on the Jingzhou army to defend the enemy outside! ”

"If there is nothing to do with the princes, if there is no Jingzhou army, you and other families will be moved to Hebei for Cao thieves, or they will be captured by the generals of Wu Hou and taken into slavery!"

Tian Xin's voice was angry, he gasped and sat on the ground, placing the silver seal in front of him: "May those who resist the enemy and protect the peace of their families and small relatives go back to the barracks to rest." If you insist on returning to your hometown, then sit where you are, and Tian will sit with you. If you regard our Jingzhou army as an enemy, you can step forward to hold Tian hostage and break into the camp and leave the camp! ”
