Chapter 18: The First Command

The one who brought them was Gao Chang Taishou Yang Han, who was deeply trusted by Liang Xi. The one who directly manages them is General Yao Yuan, who is now in a different place. Others simply don't have the prestige to unite this army, does it make sense to resist?

There is no way! There is no way but to surrender! Anyway, being a soldier and eating food is not the same as whom? This thought quickly spread among the group.

A desolate horn sounded at the head of the city, and Lu Guang's drummers also took the opportunity to start beating the war drums.

At that time, the most elite cavalry in the Western Regions charged from both wings, and there were 10,000 arrows at the head of the city, and Lu Guang, who was invincible in front, personally led people to charge, could this ragtag army in Liangzhou be able to stop it?

They thought they couldn't stop it. It's impossible to stop.

So Liu Yuxiang, the highest-ranking lieutenant of Lushui at the moment, hurriedly "pounced" and dropped the spear in his hand, jumped off the horse, knelt down and shouted: "The last general is willing to surrender, please spare your life!" ”

It is easy to do with the leader, and a group of personal soldiers under Liu Yuxiang knelt down to surrender, and the sound of weapons dropped on the ground resounded. Next, the various ministries surrendered one after another, and very consciously threw their weapons together.

Lu Guang looked up to the sky and laughed, and at this time, the headlights of Gaochang City lit up together, illuminating the night sky of Gaochang! On the ground within a radius of a few miles of Gaochang City, there was a large number of people kneeling in the black press, and as far as the eye could see, they could only see their bodies, and the blades, banners, and dependencies that had been piled up beside them. What an honor it is for an army to surrender in front of itself.

Duan Ye is not Lu Guang, but at this time, Lu Guang's mood, Duan Ye can also understand that Duan Ye has seen with his own eyes the magic of power and prestige, making countless men with knives and guns surrender, this is the dream of a real man!

At this time, Lu You, who was beside him, said to Lu Guang: "Your Majesty, how to deal with these 10,000 soldiers?" ”

At this time, according to the usual practice, Du Jin's cavalry has begun to divide and surround the troops, and those generals are even more interested in letting Lu Guang's armor rush forward to control themselves, Duan Ye has returned to Lu Guang's side, Lu Guang nodded at Duan Ye with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Duan joins the army, you say, what should I do?" ”

"The lower officials do not dare to be arbitrary, but these surrenders are composed of miscellaneous troops, and they are not subordinate to each other, and in the opinion of humble duties, they should continue to be scattered on the original basis tonight, confiscate weapons, and camp outside Gaochang City for a while, and at the same time control all the generals in advance to avoid trouble."

"Hmm." Lu Guang nodded with satisfaction, "This is a very good discussion, but since this army has surrendered, it is our strength, Duan Ye, this time we can capture Gaochang City, kill Yang Han and Yao Yuan, and take this army into our army, the first credit lies with you, since this is the case, you are responsible for the end, it is better for you to command this force, how about it?" ”

"Xia Guan is a civil official, he has no experience, please think twice." Duan Ye said with "sincere fear".

"Hey~ Experience is from scratch, you are both civil and military, and it is time to take charge of the army, so that you can be reused in the future, so it is decided, from today on, you temporarily sign General Huyi, this army is organized as the Jiuquan Army, food and other affairs, you consult with the quartermaster and report to me, and then allocate reasonably."

"This ...... Joining the army as a subordinate official of the Governor's Mansion, but also a military general, this doesn't seem appropriate......" Duan Ye said carefully, after all, it was expected to give him the army to manage temporarily, but it was far from unexpected to give it directly to General Huyi.

You must know that General Huyi is the title that Sun Ce received back then, which is of great significance, and now Yao Chang, the big chief of the Qiang tribe, is just a general of Long Xiang, although General Huyi has a slightly lower status, but it is also extraordinary, why is Lu Guang so generous?

Lu Guang did not accept Duan Ye's resignation, but said with a smile: "The matter is urgent, so I just let you act and give it in the future." Now that the military affairs are urgent and complicated, you don't have to excuse yourself. ”

"In that case, Duan Ye is commanded!" It would be hypocritical to excuse again, Duan Ye happily obeyed, Lu Guang also laughed, Lu Youdu Jin hurriedly came to congratulate, and Duan Ye naturally had to be humble.

"Your general's seal and the corresponding tokens, documents, edicts, etc., will be made in a hurry when this section is returned, and it will be handed over to you as soon as possible."

"Thank you for your love."

It took a lot of effort for Duan Ye to suppress the tremor in his voice. From today! From today, I finally have an army in my hands!

Lu Guang invited all the generals in the original army to the "banquet" in Gaochang City, firstly, because he had to be polite to the generals, and secondly, he also kept them by his side to make it easy to control. As for those who surrendered, now they are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, and they dare not say anything.

Duan Ye was originally going to attend the dinner party in order to avoid suspicion, so as not to be considered to be eager to seize military power, but Lu Guang said directly that the military situation was urgent, give Duan Ye a day to reorganize the army, and the day after tomorrow would set off for a hurry, let Duan Ye deal with it overnight, and Duan Ye would naturally stay outside the city.

The simple camp tent was quickly set up, and the Liangzhou soldiers who surrendered were forcibly dispersed and entered the camp separately, and they also knew that the current situation was impossible for them to enter the city, so they stayed outside the city, although they complained, but they did not dare to say anything.

The fire was lit, and the light of the fire shone on the faces of these young soldiers, and they were very dazed and worried, and they surrendered only because of their poor combat effectiveness, and they were afraid of death, and now they did not know what their fate would be.

Duan Ye first read out the edict of the envoy and the governor of the Western Metropolis, Lu Guang, and incorporated them into the Jiuquan Army, and the Western Regions Governor joined the army, and the Tiger Wing General Duan Ye was under the command, and allowed to set up his own generals, and from then on, this army was under the command of Duan Ye.

There were still a few literate and hyphenated people in the army, and when they heard this edict, they began to mumble. Jiuquan Army? This meaning is intriguing, now it is Gaochang, and it is still outside the Yumen Pass, so what does it mean to name this army Jiuquan Army?

Also, the rumored Lu Guang rebelled, although these soldiers didn't dare to say anything, it seems to be true now, but it doesn't matter to them. However, this section joined the army, and the civilian staff is also a tiger wing general, which is very famous.

Throughout the ages, there have been many people who have both civil and military positions, but most of them are honorary titles, such as the prime minister hanging the general's seal, and his main power still comes from the prime minister. But these two official positions are real power. Joining the army is the core staff of the Governor's Mansion, and he is in charge of many specific daily affairs, since General Huyi is the commander of the Jiuquan Army, most things, as long as they are not necessary to report to Lu Guang, can basically make their own decisions. It seems that this general is not small!
