I have Futian in my heart

Chapter 730

Some people say that Da Chu's title is set too high, there are only three ranks of Duke and Duke, and there are no sons, so the threshold is too high, and it is not easy to become a marquis by military merit.In fact, this is nonsense!
In fact, the officers of the guards of Da Chu are all hereditary, from commanders to hundreds of households, these are all hereditary.Although there is no title in name, it is similar to a title in essence.

These people are the founding of the country, as well as the military exploits made in the previous wars.

The marshals and generals with high military merits and high positions were made dukes.And the heroes with low positions became commanders, thousands of households.

The vassal relationship between the superior and the subordinate has also been maintained.

Of course, even though the guard system outside the customs has collapsed a lot, the guard is still very powerful.Many recruits were also transformed from guard soldiers.

So these relationships have been maintained!

Xiayanghou's Mansion was nothing more than an inconspicuous family among the many Duke's mansions, but it had great potential in Daning Town.Not to mention other homes.

The Mohe general named Pan Shugu called his servant by the collar, kissed Zheng Xiaoming's boots and stood up, then glanced proudly at the other Tartar officials and Mohe.

Those Tartar officials and Mohes all looked envious. Since they are slaves of Xiayang Duke's mansion, now Xiayang Duke has become the chief military officer of Daning Town.This Pan Shugu is about to develop!
A group of other officials came forward to meet and announce their names.Climbing relationship.

The Xiayanghou Mansion has a history of hundreds of years, and there are constant marriages with nobles from various families, and the relationship is intricate. These people can always make connections if they want to.

For example, this one said: "The third son of the Marquis of Changshou married my second daughter, so he is considered my son-in-law. Duke Xiayang and Marquis of Changshou are cousins, so we can be considered relatives!"

The other said: "Uncle Chengxin is my third uncle, Duke Xiayang is also my uncle!"

There is an advantage of such intertwined relations, which is in terms of governance.When Zheng Xiaoming came to be the commander-in-chief, everyone had to save face and not make trouble for him.

But this also has disadvantages. For example, if Zheng Xiaoming wants to carry out drastic reforms, it will inevitably hurt the interests of these people.At that time, all kinds of horrors of intercession will come one after another.

Fortunately, Zheng Xiaoming didn't think about reforming the military system in Daning Town, he just planned to cultivate all his innate qi peacefully.

So at the moment this scene is still harmonious!
Hello, everyone, hello, everyone, laughing and joking greetings, talking about relationships, and expressing loyalty.

But at this moment, a fast horse suddenly galloped towards him: "Report! The Yadis people from the north crossed the Halaha Mountain and offended me at Jilidan River Guard."

So the scene became quiet for a while, because Zheng Xiaoming's face darkened in an instant.

There was also a commander who didn't wink and said with a smile: "Jilidan River Guard is a place where no shit, if the Yadis people want to occupy it, let him occupy it..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Zheng Xiaoming's knife-like eyes burned his body, and he felt awe in his heart, and shut up obediently.

At this time, he suddenly remembered that this Zheng Xiaoming in front of him led the Shanling Guards, went straight to the Yellow Dragon, and wiped out the dragon's nest in the first battle, thus turning Xiayanghou into a tyrannical figure of Xiayanggong!

The laughing and laughing expression on Zheng Xiaoming's body just now was swept away, and a sense of iron and blood killing sprang up spontaneously.

"Great! I just took office, and the enemy sent me the power of holiness. How could I miss such a good thing?" This was Zheng Xiaoming's thought.

"Bring me the map!" Zheng Xiaoming yelled softly, and someone immediately presented the map of Daning Town.

Daning Town is one of the important towns on the nine borders of Great Chu. It is located in the northeast. It was originally defended against the tyrannical tribes, Mohe, and Tatars among the countless deep mountains and old forests between the white mountains and the black waters.

However, the biggest threat to Dachu is the Yadis people north of Halaha Mountain.

That is Da Chu's biggest enemy besides the evil disaster!

Zheng Xiaoming picked up the map, and he was able to see the entire land under the jurisdiction of Daning Town. In theory, the scale is huge, with as many as thirty-six guards.

However, most of them belong to the bitter cold virgin forest, surrounded by tribes of Mohe Tatars.Over the years, the scope of Daning Town has been shrinking, from the original thirty-six guards to now only thirteen guards.

Among them, the Jilidan River Guard just mentioned has already existed in name only, and the guard has already been revoked.Even the position of the commander of the guard post has been sealed to a nearby tribe.Now nominally, it still belongs to Da Chu's territory.

Now it is the command of Ji Lidanhe that the tribe is now asking for help from the Daningwei!

Therefore, it was just Zheng Xiaoming's thought whether to save Najilidan Hewei or not.Even if it is not rescued, the court will not blame it.

Because the so-called Jilidan River Guard, in fact, no longer belongs to the territory of Da Chu!
Looking at the map, Zheng Xiaoming also somewhat understood why the former imperial court and the general army of Daning Town would actually revoke the Najilidan River Guard.

The reason is also very simple, the distance is too far.

The straight-line distance from Jilidanhewei is more than [-] miles from Daning City.

There are very few residents along the way, and there are deep mountains and old forests everywhere, and there are even savage tribes.

Only at the beginning of the founding of the Great Chu, when the national power and soldiers were the strongest, could the guards be set up there!
So now, even if Zheng Xiaoming clearly wanted military merit and the power of holiness, he was a little apprehensive looking at the distance of more than [-] miles.

It is not too difficult for the elite troops to pass through the deep mountains and old forests of more than [-] miles.But the logistics are really terrible!
Zheng Xiaoming quelled the evil disaster in Zhongjing, all relying on the important town of Zhongjing, so he didn't have to worry about food and grass.Even a surprise raid on Maoming County is only a few hundred miles away, and some dry food is enough.

But now, if you want to go to Jilidanhewei, the straight-line distance is [-] miles. In fact, you may have to walk more than [-] miles, or even more than [-] miles.It is estimated that the march alone will take more than two months!
This is when everything goes well.

Therefore, Zheng Xiaoming looked at the map and fell silent for a while.

At such a time, Chen Qiang, the capital of the Great Ningwei, said: "Gongxian, there will be a sentence in the end that I don't know if I should say it or not!"

Zheng Xiaoming said: "I'm not the commander-in-chief of Daning Town yet! But if you have anything to say, just let me hear it!"

But Zheng Xiaoming hadn't rushed to Daning City yet, and handed over the defense with the former commander-in-chief.So from a legal point of view, Zheng Xiaoming is not yet the official commander of Daning Town!

Of course, in fact, it already is!
This Chen Qiang said: "Gongxian! Jilidanhewei is too far away. There is no road to pass along the way. If we really send troops to expel those Yadis people, I am afraid it will be a laborious expedition. At that time, we will be alone." I'm not afraid that the whole army will be wiped out..."
