Tong Guan can get a little credit for the merits of the Sanzhi Forbidden Army, but he must not take a big head. Because the Sanzhi Forbidden Army is not an ordinary forbidden army, but a forbidden army under the jurisdiction of the front division of the palace. It is a personal soldier who directly protects the Son of Heaven.

In the power structure of mutual restraint among the courtiers of the Northern Song Dynasty, the front division of the palace and the division of the gate have always been the territory of the Kaifeng generals. Gao Yu and Wu Haogu are now being used as leftovers for Kaifeng Jiangmen, so they can serve as the commanders of the Three Direct Army.

And Tong Guan is just a eunuch without eggs, if he has a huge influence in the Three Straight Army, then Zhao Ji will see a "Shence Army Boy Lieutenant". Do you want Tong Guan's head anymore?

Therefore, Tong Guan didn't dare to take the lead of this Wuding River Battle in his hands, otherwise he would be joking with his six catties and four taels.

Looking at Wu Haogu's troubled expression, Brother Zhao Zhong sighed: "The soldiers and horses of the three straight fronts are really sharp, not only the combat power of the knights and warriors is strong, but even the subordinate soldiers have been trained. Those knights who have been soaked in the Military Academy Division for three years are even more amazing, they are all good general seeds. In the battle of Tongwancheng, without the government soldiers they bringed, it would be difficult for us to win.

These government soldiers...... It's not a person from the Sanzhi Forbidden Army, right? The front division of the palace did not pay salaries, and most of the officials Tong wanted a Shuofang army. It's just a pity that those knights who lead the troops are all generals. ”

Brother Zhao Zhong had something to say, Wu Haogu was stunned for a moment, and then he had an expression of enlightenment. Brother Zhao Zhong wanted to trade 10,000 combat soldiers with Tong Guan.

Tong Guan is now the envoy of Shuofang Road Jingluo to appease him, and it is estimated that he will have to stay in Shuofang Road for a few years before he can go back. And it is impossible for the Sanzhi Forbidden Army to stay in Shuofang Road all the time, they are the troops of the front division of the palace, and they can't become the Western Army if they stay in the northwest for a long time?

And as soon as the three direct armies leave, who can Tong Guan rely on? Do you rely on the old foxes of the Western Army? The Western Army can be used, but Tong Guan can't rely on them all, he has to have his own team, otherwise his position is very unreliable, so Tong Guan had better establish a Shuofang Army!

With Shuo Fangjun, Tong Guan has real strength and will be able to reach a higher level in the future.

By the way, although the military eunuchs of the Northern Song Dynasty could not get their hands on the Kaifeng forbidden army with the palace army as the core, they could get their hands on the border army. Therefore, Tong Guan's mastery of Shuofang's army is allowed by policy.

And where did the Shuofang army come from? It seems that he had to be born from the government soldiers of the Sanzhi Forbidden Army.

This three-straight forbidden army is also quite chaotic, there are knights in front of the palace, there are knights' retinues, there are "odd jobs" Jurchen Gundam and Jiehe knights (including the fakes), there are warriors who fight for the house, there are Jiehe utility soldiers hired by money, and craftsmen commanded by sappers, but the largest number is the government soldiers.

Among them, the knights in front of the palace and the warriors of the house slave are the three direct armies, with less than 6,000 people, and the remaining 20,000 people are not established, and they are not the real three direct forbidden armies. Therefore, Wu Haogu didn't have to bring back the more than 20,000 unprepared ones back to Kaifeng Mansion, and no one would take care of the food when he brought them back......

But the combat effectiveness of these people is also not to be ignored!

"Brother Zhong means to give 10,000 government soldiers to Tong Daguan?"

"Yes!" Brother Zhao Zhong nodded, "With these 10,000 people, Tong Daguan's envoy can be stable." Otherwise, they are all men and horses of the Western Army, and he is a foreign eunuch, how much effort does it take to sit firmly? ”

"But the soldiers are all knights!" Wu Haogu pondered and said, "If you leave them in Shuofang, is the number of knights in front of the palace too small?" ”

"Fill it with a tall black-armored knight." Zhao Zhongge said, "You can also let the people of the black-armored knights go to the Biyong Academy Palace to study military affairs, so that Gao Taiwei will also have his own strength." ”

Wu Haogu nodded and showed a smile: "This is the best, Tong Daguan and Gao Shiyan have their own strength, and I don't seem to have military strength, so the official family will be relieved to reuse." ”

Brother Zhao Zhong smiled faintly, and followed Wu Haogu's words and said: "Of course, you have strength, but this strength can't be put in the open, right?" In fact, in this battle of Wudinghe, the military commander is the biggest hero, and this command is also the greatest strength of the Sanzhi Forbidden Army! The second hero is the two engineer commanders, without them blowing up the Tongwan City Wall, we would not be able to sit here now. Again, the heroes are the dozens of fake sons of the Jurchen knights and the Fuhrer...... The iron harriers that the western thieves were proud of were crushed by their more than 200 horses for a while! If it weren't for the tens of thousands of troops led by Brother Cha nearby, and the three thousand iron harriers alone, they might have been wiped out by them all.

The head of state won't hand over these three major strengths, right? ”

Brother Zhao Zhong's question is not asked casually, but in the test of martial arts!

"Of course not!" Wu Haogu smiled, "It's all handed over, how will you sweep Yanyun Liaodong in the future, and how will you win the overseas islands?" I have already thought about it, all the military opportunities, and then transfer a group of knights who have been the heads of the government soldiers, all of them will be transferred to the Yuntai Academy and the Biyong Palace as professors, mainly to go to the Jiehe Branch of the Yuntai Academy.

The fake sons who participated in the war all went to the knight academy under the Yuntai School Palace to study and serve as the head of the equestrian instructor. I also have to give them land, so that they can all be knights of the Jiehe Merchant City.

Wanyan also waited for the Jurchen knights, so keep it as much as possible. ”

He paused, and then said: "As for the personnel in the two engineer commands, they can be absorbed by building a school and opening a mine and smelting field in Xuzhou. ”

Wu Haogu's idea is to start with talent training, sweep the elite of knight officers and fake knights into the school palace system, train them into military instructors, and use them to train a new generation of military elites. The same method is used for the technical personnel in the command of the engineers, and they are all grasped in their hands. It is not only necessary to grasp the hands, but also to let them cultivate a new generation of talents through running schools.

And there is one biggest difference between the schools run by Wu Haogu and all the other schools in the Great Song Dynasty, that is, these schools are all "research-oriented". Because they are all schools with "Positivism" as their guiding ideology, they have quite strong research capabilities - don't underestimate this kind of philosophical breakthrough, without positivism and scientific methods, research and exploration will lack methods, and it will be difficult to carry out.

Scientific research includes both natural and social sciences, and military science is a typical category of social sciences, which can be improved through research, exploration, and practice.

For example, the lessons learned from the Battle of Wuding River this time were enough for the professors of the Yuntai Academy and the Knight Academy to study for several years. And the results of their own research are more valuable than Wu Haogu's golden finger!

Brother Zhao Zhong listened quietly, and only smiled after a while: "Okay, after the last general returns to the Jiehe, he will preside over the knight academy for the Führer...... The last general went to see the slanted ya, he was tired enough, right? I wonder if I've slept enough now? ”

He stood up in a dashing manner, clasped his fists and saluted. Don't look at him as a martial artist, in fact, he is a son of the four families of Yanyun, a proper son of a family. These days are about too hard, the whole body has lost weight, and it doesn't look so rough, but a little more suave. He looked at Wu Haogu fixedly: "Führer, the hidden dragon is in the abyss to gather momentum, and the momentum is to soar into the sky!" The last general and all the military opportunities are willing to follow the Führer to establish a great deed! ”

Hearing Zhao Zhongge's words, Wu Haogu was stunned, and finally just nodded silently.

A character like Zhao Zhongge is willing to follow his own family, so he naturally has a plan. And what he wants is a great achievement...... I don't know what kind of merit is good in his eyes?

When the two were relatively speechless, they heard hurried footsteps outside, and also heard the voice of the arhat maid: "Master, master!" Sister Bai, they're here! ”

……

Wu Haogu served in the army as a rich man and led the army, so naturally he couldn't be too hard and simple. Otherwise, the people below will think that you are slamming the door, and the people above will think that you are "having nothing to take from your possessions, and women have nothing to do, and your ambition is not small". In short, it's not a human being inside and out, and the head is about to move.

Therefore, Wu Haogu took Bai Feifei, the Kaifeng Oiran, with him to go on the expedition, and not only brought a Bai Feifei, but also asked Bai Feifei to organize a battalion and follow him to the northwest.

However, Wu Haogu did not let Bai Feifei and her companions come into battle, but left them in a relatively backward place. At first, it was placed in Yan'an, and later it was placed in Shicheng in Yinzhou. After the battle of Tongwan was fought, people were asked to recruit Bai Feifei and others to Tongwan.

The main purpose of recruiting Bai Feifei to Tongwan is to prepare a celebration banquet. The battle was not only a fierce battle, but also a bitter battle. Finally let the brothers of the Three Straight Army carry it down, and now you can't let the big guys have fun?

In addition to preparing and organizing a celebration banquet, Bai Feifei is also the royal courtesan of Wu Haogu - officialdom communication is not a trivial matter. She is the head of the Oiran line of Kaifeng Mansion, and she is very familiar with Gao Yu, Tong Guan and others, and knows Wang Lao Military Family, Wang Xiao Military Family, and Tao Jiefu, the commander of the Eastern Front. And there is a way to get out of their mouths, find out their thoughts, and sometimes serve as a bridge for bribery......

Therefore, in Wu Haogu's group, Bai Feifei, as well as Yan Po'er, who is now staying in Jiehe, and Mo Niangzi, who has presided over Christie's trip, are all indispensable roles.

"Feifei," after seeing Bai Feifei, who was in the dust, Wu Haogu immediately assigned her a task, "Arrange a banquet tonight, I want to feast Tong Daofu and Gao Shiyan." ”

"Master," Bai Fei flew a blessing gift, "Is tonight's feast going to be a big one, or is it a family banquet?" ”

"Set up a family banquet," Wu Haogu said, "you come and get it, and if you need it, go to the Arhat maid."

In addition, you can personally send the invitation to Tong Daofu and Gao Shiyan, and don't let unrelated people know about it. ”

Bai Feifei is a blessing again, "The slave can be saved." ”
