Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 678 The villain still needs the villain to grind

"Have the intelligence channels of Zhongyuan and Jiangdong been fully recovered now? When did you know about this?" Lan Tian asked with a frown.

Song Chen replied: "The last general came to report to the master as soon as he received it. Although the Xiangfan War ended later, there are much more roads leading to the north, so the commercial road was resumed a few months ago. Jiangdong started last year. It is completely isolated, and now the navigation of the Yangtze River has just resumed, and the intelligence over there will be later."

Lan Tian nodded, "To figure out Jiangdong's strategic defense, we must get in touch with Hu Ke as soon as possible. I'm really not used to not hearing from Jiangdong for so long."

"Whether it is the Yangtze River or the southern part of Luling, Jiangdong ended in a disastrous defeat last year. Lu Xun and Ding Feng are tightly defended on both sides of the waterway. I want to wait for the two sides to relax before sending people. If there is something particularly important in Jiangdong, General Hu will also send Someone took the initiative to contact you." Song Chen expressed his thoughts.

Lan Tian nodded, "Jiaozhou's current internal affairs and military affairs are at a critical stage. You must pay attention to collecting all kinds of internal and external intelligence. Your chamber of commerce must have its eyes and ears right, and absolutely no mistakes are allowed. If there is an emergency Be notified promptly."

"Wei." Song Chen nodded.

Not long after Song Chen left, Lan Tian played a set of Wu Qin Xi and was sitting in the room with his eyes closed to rest his mind. Gao Yuan then led Xiahou Qi in.

Xia Houqi is currently the prefect of Cangwu, and also serves as the head of the criminal Cao in the Six Caos. He had just worked part-time for less than a month, and found that he could not continue to work.

The duty of Xingcao is to be in charge of law and prison. Lantian pushed Xiahou Qi to this position because Xiahou Qi was an old minister of Liu Bei. However, Xiahou Qi is the prefect of Cangwu. Running back and forth, and the lower-level personnel of the criminal cao in various counties and counties, all of whom were arrogant and arrogant from the army, Xia Houqi's negative emotions were relatively high.

The subordinate units of Punishment Cao are Jue Cao (or Mo Cao) and Thief Cao, who are responsible for the public security, punishment, prison, robbery, law, etc. of counties and counties. Suddenly, it became as strict as the law, and the law and order in various counties and counties has been significantly improved.

The retired soldiers of the fallen army sank to counties and counties, which had a very obvious positive effect. On the contrary, they all crawled out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood. Yamen complaints.

When the sky fell, there was a tall one. When these soldiers were in the army, Gao Shun resolved all external pressures. Xiahou Qi, as the chief of the criminal Cao, had to deal with the aftermath of these arrogant soldiers.

The conflicts in Cangwu County are easy to resolve. After all, the rest of the yamen will give face to the prefect, but it is difficult to deal with outer counties like Yulin and Nanhai. Very understandable.

In the past month, Xia Houqi absorbed too many negative emotions, and today he came to the state capital to resign from the execution of Chief Cao.

After Lan Tian asked about the situation, he comforted him: "It takes time to change from a soldier to an official. The prefect of Xiahou can teach them slowly. These soldiers are very obedient to orders. You will be reluctant to use them if you use them smoothly."

Xia Houqi was full of bitterness, "My lord, it's not that the last general is impatient, it's just that there is a big difference between the locality and the army. They have just retired from the army, and it is indeed no problem to complete their duties independently, but they still can't change the banditry cultivated in the army. I can't get along with my colleagues in other yamen. The students you selected in the academy last year have done well in the four fields of officials, households, rites, and workers. The criminal cao should also be selected in the academy. They can at least be reasonable. As for the soldiers in the formation?"

Xiahou Qi's words imply that the soldiers in the formation are difficult to control. Lan Tian frowned, and replied in a deep voice: "Xing Prison should be ruthless and selfless. The soldiers in the formation do not cater to the officialdom in the local area. It is not easy to just do their jobs. There is no need for them to make do with others." ?”

"But the officialdom is a big dye vat after all. Being out of gregariousness is never a solution. There will always be linkages between the various yamen, but the current situation is really delicate. It seems that both sides are right, and both seem to be wrong. The end will be in Cangwu's official affairs. Saturation, plus the old injuries from the past are still being committed frequently, so there is really no extra energy. I don’t have extra energy to concurrently serve as the head of the Criminal Cao.” Xia Houqi lowered his head and did not look at Lantian, but his tone was very firm.

Seeing Xiahou Qi's decision, Lan Tian sighed, and replied: "Since General Xiahou is indeed in trouble, I don't want to make things difficult for others. Let me change someone else in charge of punishing Cao."

"Thank you, Lord Fu, for your understanding." Seeing that Lan Tian agreed, Xiahou Qi quickly clasped his fists and bowed to thank him. He didn't know that this position was actually given for Liu Bei's sake, and Lan Tian didn't want to be called nepotism.

Lan Tian continued: "The folk customs in Lingnan have always been tough, but since the criminal reform was implemented last year, the atmosphere in all counties and counties has changed significantly, so the wicked still need 'wicked people' to grind, and it takes time for the academy to train a student. It’s been a long time, and I won’t arrange personnel for the Xingbing Liangcao for the time being.”

"Yes yes yes, Fujun thinks more comprehensively than I do, your deployment is absolutely correct, I just made a suggestion just now." Xiahou Qi unloaded the burden, and kept pouring out good words from his mouth.

"General Xiahou's old injuries should be taken seriously. If you are not in a hurry to return to Guangxin, you can find Mr. Yuanhua (Hua Tuo) and take the medicine as needed. After all, the climate in Jiaozhou is hot and humid, so don't procrastinate." seriously ill." Lan Tian reminded.

"Thank you for your concern, Lord Fu, I will be leaving soon." Xia Houqi nodded.

After Lantian sent Xia Houqi away, he asked Gao Yuan to invite Gao Shun and Xu Shuang. He was not afraid that no one would take such a powerful position like Xingcao, so Xu Shuang finally served as the head of Xingcao.

Gao Shun is about to go on an expedition to Linyi, and the return date is uncertain. Xu Shuangben intends to stay in Guangzhou to protect Lantian, so everyone is happy with the final arrangement.

It may be that Lanyuan led the troops on an expedition, and Lantian's cautious character was worried. He went to the medical school and military area in casual clothes many times to observe the situation of the Lanyuan medical camp.

After secretly observing several times, Lan Tian approached Gao Shun and asked, "The children in the medical camp are all young. Such a short training time should not meet your requirements, right?"

Gao Shun nodded, "It's true that they're still a bit late, but the place where soldiers can be tempered the most is the real battlefield besides the training ground. I believe they will be reborn after returning from Rinan County, but I'm reluctant to let the medical battalion go to the front line."

"But why?" Lan Tian showed a puzzled expression.

"In addition to learning combat skills, these children have also mastered simple first aid skills, which shows that their overall understanding is not bad. It would be a pity if they died on the battlefield." Gao Shun shook his head.

Lan Tian's expression was solemn, "The children in the honeypot will not grow up, Boping, you'd better be cruel."

"Well, sir, don't worry." Gao Shun patted his chest to assure him.
