Chapter 55: The Prophet of the Unknown (1st Update)

The festival hall of the Lingzhou Governor's Mansion is dedicated to the incense case, and the sandalwood is rising. After the incense case, a eunuch of the Yellow Gate held the holy decree in both hands, and was reading it out in a subdued voice: "I only rule the world with literature, fight chaos with force, and ride the captain, the general of Zhongwu, the right guard of the East Palace, the county uncle of Xiuwu, and the head of the march Chen Ying...... Cleanse the spirit of martial arts, clarify the thief atmosphere, soothe Li Shu, the reputation of the virtuous reaches the four fields, the chaos is virtuous, and the martial arts are displayed to the temple, which is the governor of Lingzhou, and the governor of Sheng, Hua, Xia, Yin, Sui, and Yan Six Prefectures is military, and acts cheaply, such as bowing to my relatives, do not live up to my hopes...... Can ......"

According to the imperial court system, it is necessary for the Ministry of War to send people to inspect it. After the number of beheadings is determined to match and the authenticity of the head, the reward will be awarded. Liu Wenjing was going to give Chen Ying some eye medicine, but the result was good, and the Eastern Turk Ye Hu Ashina Mohe had just run to Ningzhou in one go, and ran into the delegation sent by Princess Yicheng to Chang'an.

Princess Yicheng saw that Chen Ying became more and more brave the more he fought, and the Eastern Turks became famous for a while. decided to kill Chen Ying, so that Li Yuan was afraid of Chen Ying and killed Chen Ying by Li Yuan's hand. So Mo He returned to Chang'an again and more than doubled Chen Ying's record. In the end, it became 100,000 Turks killed and 100,000 captured. He also said that the Turks wanted to form a state with the Tang Dynasty as a state of Qin and Jin.

Although Li Yuan is not a lord of generosity, he is not a fool either, Princess Yicheng's conspiracy to kill people with a knife, not to mention Li Yuan, even most of the courtiers can see it. As a result, it was also trouble-free, and the alleviation of the results of the inspection of the Ministry of War was directly omitted, and the reward was directly issued.

Chen Ying was puzzled at this time, and even felt confused. Named the founding of the martial arts county marquis, this is nothing, there is the Tang generation, the title is quite proliferated, he, the founding county marquis, is actually the seventh in the Tang Dynasty title system. The ninth class of Datang Fanjue: one is the king, ten thousand households in the food town, one product, the second is the heir king, the county king, five thousand households in the food yi, from the first product; Three are said to be the princes of the country, and there are 3,000 households in the food district, from one product; Fourth, it is said that the founding county is the prince, with 2,000 households and two products; Five said to be the founding of the county, 1,500 households, from the second grade; Sixth, it is said that the founding county marquis, thousands of households in the food district, from the three products; Seven said the founding county uncle, 700 households, is on the four products; Eight said to be the founding county, 500 households, is on the five products; Nine said that the founding county male, 300 households, from the five products.

What puzzled Chen Ying was that he was only the Marquis of the Founding County, but the food was comparable to the Founding County Prince. Another thing that puzzled was the Tang Dynasty's governor (later changed to the governor), which was similar in nature to the level of the later military districts. There are thirty-four counties in seven states, but the jurisdiction of the Lingzhou Governor's Mansion is almost equivalent to the authority of the Lingwu Jiedu envoy founded in the era of Li Longji in the later generations. In fact, Chen Ying's actual position at this time is only equivalent to three products.

The title of county marquis is also from the third grade, and the commander and general are also from the third grade. But he gave him a golden purple Guanglu doctor's sanjue, a purple official robe, a golden armor, and more than 1,000 gold and silver coins.

At this time, Chen Ying was from the third-grade official uniform to the vermilion, and purple was the official clothing color from the second-grade and above, and it was an honor to give purple to the third-grade officials, which was regarded as a spiritual encouragement, not a substantial promotion. However, if Chen Ying was martyred in the war or became a post-war official, he could enjoy the political treatment of a second-class official.

The right guard rate of the East Palace was reorganized into the Dingyuan Army. The Dingyuan Army has jurisdiction over six prefectures, with five regiments under each prefecture and three brigades per regiment, with a total of 9,000 soldiers. This Dingyuan Army is equivalent to a field army, and there is no specific defense area and station, and Chen Ying can be mobilized at any time according to the needs of the war.

The Lingzhou General Government has jurisdiction over the soldiers of the six prefectures, and the soldiers of the six prefectures are stationed in the territory of the six prefectures, but these six prefectures are respectively the two prefectures of Lingzhou Zhichong Prefecture, Suizhou Zhichong Prefecture, and the four prefectures of the lower prefectures. Each prefecture has four regiments, each with 200 people. The strength of the Lingzhou Governor's Office was 6,200 men. Since then, Chen Ying has directly increased the number of soldiers under his jurisdiction from more than 4,800 to more than 15,200 soldiers.

Not to mention the increase in troops, most of Chen Ying's troops have also been promoted, such as Gao Yunquan, the left deputy of the East Palace, who was promoted from General Xuanwei to General Zhuangwu and Captain of Xunjin Light Che. He Yuejing, the deputy leader of the right guard, was promoted from General Mingwei to General Xuanwei and Captain of the Cavalry. They were also relocated separately. Wei Wenzhong was promoted from the second mansion of Xun to the right guard of the East Palace, and returned to Chang'an to rebuild the right guard of the East Palace.

This made Chen Ying feel very regretful, but others such as Duan Shigan, Zhang Shigui, Luo Shixin, and Zhang Huaiwei also had many knights. Duan Zhigan and others were knighted as the county magistrates of the founding of the country. The key is that Duan Zhigan's father, Duan Yanshi, has no knight at all, and his younger brother has a viscount of Qixian Zi, but Duan Zhixuan will eventually be crowned Duke of Fan Guo with Li Shimin. What surprised Chen Ying the most was that Luo Shixin actually took his original title and became the county magistrate of Xiuwu.

There are promotions from official positions, titles, and honors, and it is definitely a lie to say that Chen Ying is unhappy. Facing the indignant inner servant, Liu Zhong, the eunuch of the province, said straightly; "Eunuch Liu, I'm afraid I've suffered a lot of hardships this way, come into the hall and rest for a ...... or two!"

Liu Zhongzhi's face softened a lot, and he waved his hand again and again: "Our family can't deserve the honorific title of Tailin, just call our family to look at it!" ”

Only then did Chen Ying know that in the Tang Dynasty, there were only four eunuchs who could be called eunuchs, including the inner servants, the inner permanent attendants, the inner Chengzhi, and the middle permanent attendants, and Liu Zhongzhi's internal servants in the province were only minor officials from the sixth grade. However, at this time, he also served as the envoy of the Dingyuan Army. The full name of the Guanrong envoy is the Guanjun Rong Xuanxuan Disposal Envoy, but in fact, what he wears is the prison army.

Chen Ying didn't quite know when this observation was established in history, and vaguely remembered that it was an official position retained in the late Tang or Song dynasties, but in the early Tang Dynasty, this observation was applied, obviously because of the influence of this otherworldly butterfly.

Just when Liu Zhongzhi was about to enter the festival hall, he suddenly said: "Manager Chen, when our family came from Chang'an, Your Majesty gave a special order, asking our family to comfort the soldiers for Your Majesty, you can take a look......"

When Chen Ying heard this, he turned to Liu Tong and said, "Drumming...... Gathering! ”

"Dong Dong ......" the thick war drums began to sound from the Lingzhou Governor's Mansion, and the rhythmic footsteps sounded in a short time, outside the Governor's Mansion, it was on the main street of Lingzhou City, similar to Beijing's Chang'an Street, Chang'an City's Zhuque Street, although Lingzhou was not wider than Chang'an City's Zhuque Street, but Lingzhou's main street was also to facilitate the transfer of troops and horses.

Therefore, the entire street is about 12 zhang 8 feet (about 30 meters) wide, which is equivalent to eight lanes in both directions in later generations.

The first to complete the assembly was naturally the Qinwei Zhichong Mansion, followed by the Xun Second Mansion, the Xun First Mansion, the Yi First Mansion, and the Yi Second Mansion. In just one pillar of incense, a longitudinal military parade appeared on the street in front of the governor's mansion. At the top of the list is naturally the Qinwei Zhichong Mansion, followed by the Xun First Mansion and the Xun Second Mansion.

Although Liu Zhongzhi is an internal servant, there are left and right military guards stationed in the palace, and he has naturally seen the army, but he has never seen an army assembled so quickly, especially the scene of 10,000 people as one, neatly raising their legs and settling down neatly, which gave him a great shock.

Just when Liu Zhongzhi felt that his breathing became short, a mighty team of hook and sickle lancers appeared on the long street.

Liu Zhongzhi asked strangely, "Manager Chen, will you be a prophet?" How do you know that His Majesty ordered the right guard rate to be reorganized into the six mansions of the Dingyuan Army? ”

Although Liu Zhongzhi did not count in detail, Chen Ying's cavalry Zhichong Mansion, plus the personal guard Zhichong Mansion, Xun 1 Mansion, Xun 2 Mansion, Yi 1 Mansion, Yi 2 Mansion, Yi 2 Mansion, is exactly six mansions with more than 9,000 people.
