Three Kingdoms open plug-ins everywhere

Chapter 816 Restructuring the New Army
This was just a temporary idea on his part.

It is still very troublesome to turn a dilapidated restaurant into a landmark building in Xu County and make it into a clubhouse for future generations.

However, the palace is also not completed, and during this period of time, it can be carried out simultaneously.

"We will live here for a long time, Dian Wei, what do you think of Xu County?" Walking into the restaurant, Xu Ding looked around.

"Compared to Donglai, of course it's not as good."

"I assure you, within three years, this place will definitely be better than Donglai!" Xu Ding already had an idea in his mind.Since they will live here for a long time in the future, it is natural to renovate.As the capital of a country, it must not be shabby.

"Both guests, are you eating or staying at the hotel?" A middle-aged man with a kind face came down from upstairs.

Xu Ding turned around and said with a smile: "We neither eat nor stay in the store. I want to buy this place, so please make a price."

"purchase?"

The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "Sorry, I don't want to sell this restaurant."

"I pay a high price."

"No matter how high the price is, I will not sell it."

"Huh?" Xu Ding sat down interestingly and asked, "Why? I paid five times the price, and you won't sell it?"

The middle-aged man clasped his hands and said, "You must be a foreign businessman, right? If a few days ago, I would have sold you half the price of the restaurant. But now. Xu County is about to become the capital of the country, and at the diagonally opposite door of my restaurant is The palace. Officials, merchants, and foreign envoys who come and go in the future will come here to eat and stay, such a good business, how can I sell the store. "

"Hehe, so it is like this." Xu Ding understood.

But he is determined to win here.

The entertainment club must be built.

"Bold, do you know who is talking to you?" Dian Wei shouted angrily.

Xu Ding stopped Dianwei, smiled and said: "Shopkeeper, I definitely want to buy this place. But if you don't want to sell it, then we can discuss it. After I buy it, you will still manage it. I don't usually manage the restaurant. You still have the final say on the restaurant. In addition, you can estimate, according to your idea, how much money can you make every year?"

"this.."

He said, "At least 2 taels."

Xu Ding said: "Okay, you help me take care of this restaurant, I will give you 2 taels of salary every year, what do you think?"

"What? You..." The middle-aged man thought to himself, "You can't be a fool."

"Hey! I want to ask you a question!" Dian Wei's attitude towards this store was very bad.

"Me." The shopkeeper recovered and was about to agree.At this time, Guo Jia led a group of soldiers and walked in quickly: "My lord, we found a short sword on the bodies of those killers. There was a word deaf engraved on the hidden part of the bottom of the sword. This is from the Yangzhou Deaf family." Made by artisans. From this we can see that these killers may have been sent by Zhou Yu or Sun Jian."

The shopkeeper on the side was already frightened, and stood there without daring to move.

Xu Ding said: "The Yangzhou craftsmen built it, but it cannot be said that it was sent by Zhou Yu or Sun Jian. Maybe Liu Bei and Cao Cao framed the Sun family. It is not impossible."

Guo Jia said: "My lord is very true. But the inscription on the bottom of this dagger is very hidden. If I hadn't checked carefully, I would never have found it. It should be used by the killer himself for self-defense. Because the other killer didn't have any extra daggers. .”

Xu Ding said: "That's what Zhou Gongjin did."

"Yes."

Xu Ding sneered and said, "Zhou Gongjin wanted to compete with me a long time ago, and it is reasonable to send a secret agent to investigate. Anyway, the Sun family will perish soon, so I don't care what the secret agent does. Feng Xiao , from now on, there is no need to check the details of the city."

"What does my lord mean?"

"We'll take advantage of it then."

"I understand." Guo Jia replied: "Then I will put up an Anmin notice to cover up the matter. Just treat it as an assassin sent by a certain family to seek revenge."

"Ah."

Xu Ding waved his hand.

Guo Jia took people away.

The middle-aged man standing at the side plopped down on his knees: "The villain has eyes that don't know Mount Tai, and he doesn't know that the general is coming. If he offends the general, he will ask the general to punish him."

Xu Ding came back to his senses and said, "You didn't offend me, and I won't punish you. We're talking about business. We're talking about business. What do you think about what I told you before?"

"Oh, by the way, what's your name?"

"The villain Hu Ding."

Xu Ding said: "Hu Ding, I bought this place with the intention of repairing it to make the business better. Because Xu County's commerce is underdeveloped. It seems dead. If you can help me manage it, I will not treat you badly. Except for the previous The promised salary of 2 taels has many other benefits. Would you like it?"

Hu Ding quickly responded: "The little ones are willing, the little ones are willing..."

For ordinary people, it is extremely difficult to see Xu Ding, let alone work for Xu Ding.

This is a god-sent opportunity, how could he not.

"General, you said before that 2 taels for the small one is too much..." Hu Ding felt uneasy and wanted to take only his own share.

"Not much, not much, as long as you do your best in the future, the 2 taels will not be unfair." Xu Ding said, "I don't like taking advantage of others, especially the people under my rule. How much is your restaurant worth? You say a price, and I'll send it to you."

"Don't be shy, just say it."

Hu Ding thought about it, the price shouldn't be too high, what if Xu Ding offends him?So he gave a 15% discount, and then cut the head and tail: "[-] taels."

Although Xu Ding is not familiar with the prices of restaurants in Xu County, he also knows that it is impossible to buy a restaurant for 15 taels of silver.What's more, this restaurant is still opposite the palace, so the business must be booming.

Xu Ding didn't want to take advantage of him, so he said: "I'm not familiar with the price of the restaurant. I'll ask later. Then I will send someone to send the silver to take over here. The restaurant needs to be renovated and the name needs to be changed. These things You can help take care of it, and the reward can be mentioned as you like."

Hu Ding said: "General Meng valued it very much. If such a big restaurant is handed over to the young one, how can the young one not do his best. As for the reward, the general should stop talking about it. The small one really dare not ask for it."

"Okay, that's it."

Xu Ding went upstairs and walked around, then left here.

Xu Ding handed over the renovation of the restaurant to Wang Yue and Wang Fu of the Hero Building.Because the name of this restaurant, which is about to be changed, is Heroes Clubhouse.

Wang Yue's hero building will also be moved here.

It would be best if Wang Yue and Wang Fu presided over the repair.

"My lord, I have received bad news." The next morning, when Xu Ding just woke up, Guo Jia came.

"What bad news? Is Cao Cao sending troops?" Xu Ding asked.

"No."

Guo Jia cupped his hands and said, "Master, do you still remember Zhuge Liang?"

"Of course, Zhuge Liang is a rare talent. His judgment of the situation and the study of formations are excellent. But where has he been recently, why haven't I seen him?"

Xu Ding washed his face and sat in the living room drinking tea.

Guo Jia cupped his hands and said: "I just received the news that Zhuge Liang traveled to Taiyuan and has joined Liu Bei. And a few days ago, he personally went to Hanoi, persuaded Zhang Yang's generals to rebel, and murdered Zhang Yang. Now all parts of Hanoi belong to Liu Bei. "

Xu Ding was holding the tea bottle and was a little surprised to hear the news before it was delivered to his mouth.

"Is it Zhuge Liang who killed Zhang Yang without bloodshed? Isn't the territory of Liu Bei and Cao Cao connected together? The threat to us is also greater." Xu Ding said.

"Yes. The land of Hanoi is connected to Guanzhong, and Liu Bei will gain it like a tiger with wings."

"such a pity."

Xu Ding originally thought that Zhuge Liang's elder brother was under his command, and Zhuge Liang would definitely serve him in the future.What's more, the general trend of the world is already clear at a glance, and he is about to unify the whole country. What reason does Zhuge Liang have to go to other princes?Unexpectedly, Liu Bei, the bereaved star, actually accepted Zhuge Liang.

This is definitely bad news for Xu Ding.

"From now on, Sun Cao Liu will be fully monitored. I want to know their every move, including who they met and what they talked about. I want to know everything. After the founding of the country, wipe them out in one fell swoop!"

"As ordered."

Guo Jia is in charge of the network, and is a good hand at collecting intelligence.Not to mention the small matter of investigating Sun Caoliu, even their generals cannot escape the investigation.

On this day, troops from all over Hebei and the Central Plains had assembled in the south of Yanzhou.

Xu Ding sent someone to count, and there were a total of 23 cavalry, including more than 1 chariots.

For the 23 troops, it is promised to restructure them.

"This restructuring is not only for the convenience of commanding the next battle, but also the first batch of regularized troops formed after the founding of our country. I have already drawn up a plan, listen to it?" Many generals stood in the study, They all looked at Xu Ding eagerly.Holding a document, Xu Ding read: "First of all, the First Army was named the First Field Army, and the commander-in-chief was Lv Bu. Lv Bu was still in the frontier fortress and did not come back. His army did not go to Yanzhou to participate in this restructuring, but I can count him in the reorganization sequence, because the First Field Army will be composed of Lu Bu's headquarters cavalry, Gao Shun's camp, and [-] Qing cavalry selected from Xianbei surrendered troops. The number is about [-] or so."

"The Second Army was named the Hebei Field Army, and the commander-in-chief was Guan Yu. There will be two battalions of cavalry, five battalions of infantry, and one battalion of chariots, with a total of 4 horses."

"The third army is named the Central Plains Field Army, and the general in command is Huang Zhong. It will be composed of soldiers from Qingzhou and Xuzhou counties. It will include General Gongsun Zan's 1 white horse volunteers, General Min Rou's 6 Guiyi Army, and General Zhang Jai's [-] euphorbia soldiers, and six infantry battalions selected from various counties in Qingxu. A total of [-] people."

"The Fourth Army is named the Zhili Field Army, and the general in command is Xu Huang. It will be composed of Shenji cavalry guards, Xuanjia guards, Modao guards, and soldiers from various counties in Yanzhou. A total of 2 people."

"The Fifth Army will be named Jian Dao, and the general in charge will be Zhao Yun. We will select troops from all armies who are good at attacking the city. The number is tentatively set at [-]."

"The Sixth Army will be named Shield Defense, and the general in command will be Zhang Liao. We will select troops who are good at defending the city from various armies, and the number is tentatively set at [-]."

"The Seventh Army is named Sharp Blade, and the general in command is Jia Xu. This army will be composed entirely of firearms, and the number is tentatively set at [-]."

In addition to the above-mentioned generals who were appointed as the main generals, many generals also joined the seven armies, some were deputy generals, and some were pioneers.Almost all the generals present had quotas.It's just that the size of the official position is different.However, most of the generals are ranked according to their military exploits, so there is not much controversy.

Only Ma Chao has some opinions.

Under Xu Ding's command, he was regarded as one of the best generals, but he was not appointed as the chief general.But he was assigned to the Hebei Field Army as a lieutenant in the first battalion, which is really overkill.

The generals under Ma Chao have more opinions.

They are not even school captains, they have directly become commanders-in-chief.

This gap in status is simply unacceptable.

After announcing the reorganization of the army, Xu Ding left Ma Chao and his generals behind and said, "Meng Qi, do you have something to say?"

"Yes."

"Go ahead."

Ma Chao said angrily: "The last general fought in the north and south, with rich experience and outstanding military exploits. This time, he only served as a battalion captain. The last general really refuses to accept it."

The generals standing behind him also looked unhappy.

"Just for this?" Xu Ding said, "General Gongsun Zan, General Min Rou, and General Zhang Jaw, aren't they also the captains of the First Battalion? They belong to the Central Plains Field Army and are under Huang Zhong's control."

Ma Chao said: "Can it be the same? They are all elites."

Xu Ding said: "Meng Qi, aren't you also an elite? The Hebei Field Army has two battalions of cavalry. One is heavy cavalry and the other is light cavalry. Both have [-] people. You are the captain of the heavy cavalry battalion. I am the captain of the heavy cavalry battalion. The only well-equipped cavalry in the army, do you think the position is low? The number is small?"

"Heavy ride?"

Ma Chao's expression changed immediately: "Is it really a heavy horse?"

"Of course. If it wasn't for the well-equipped heavy cavalry, why would I have sent you to lead it? You should know that I value your soldiers the most." Xu Ding said.

"The last general was rude just now, I hope my lord will forgive me." Ma Chao bowed his hands.

"I hope my lord will forgive me." All the generals also knelt down.

"Get up. It's no wonder you guys. After the restructuring, there are indeed many generals with few commanders and some with more troops. This is unavoidable. But I will always remember your contributions. When the world is settled, It must be rewarded for meritorious deeds."

"Thank you, my lord."

Everyone got up.

Xu Ding pulled Ma Chao and said, "Meng Qi, this battle is very important to us. I hope that soldiers at all levels can unite and deal with Sun Cao Liu. Don't create gaps because of official positions."

"I will understand at the end."

Ma Chao really realized that he was a little reckless just now.

Even if the position is low and the number of leaders is small, there should be no dissatisfaction.

But he didn't know what Xu Ding was thinking.

Xu Ding would rather express his dissatisfaction in person like Ma Chao, than see soldiers at all levels fighting secretly.In the end, it was his own army that was lost, which even affected the overall situation.

The restructuring of the army has aroused heated discussions in the army.

Some are happy, some are dissatisfied.

But things that have already been decided cannot be changed.

We all have to accept this reality.

"Feng Xiao, the reorganization of the army is not just a change of title. The army also needs to be changed. Take time to go to the barracks and station our six armies in Yanzhou separately. Let them train individually and form a tacit understanding internally. "In the county government office, Xu Ding said to Guo Jia.

"Yes."

Guo Jia replied: "It's not too much trouble to separate the troops. It's just that it's a bit difficult for them to form a tacit understanding with each other in a short period of time."

Xu Ding said: "Training soldiers is a matter for generals at all levels. You don't have to worry about it. You just need to pass on my orders. Also... After forming those seven armies, there should be more than 2 soldiers left in Yanzhou, right? "
