Chapter 137 Two Cities in a row

Everyone was also happy to Xiao Tianjian, but Xiao Tianjian did not think he was happy. He frowned and said, "Although Luo Rucai came to vote this time is a good thing, as far as I know, this life is cunning, capricious, and luxurious, so people gave him the nickname Cao Cao. I'm afraid this person led the team to vote, not only If it doesn't help us, it will cause a lot of trouble in our jurisdiction! This is a blessing for the loss of the horse!

That's all! Let's not talk about this! Now that we are here, we are guests, and we can't be cold! Thinking that Luo Ru ran to our jurisdiction in such a hurry, he only brought so many people and horses. He must have suffered a lot of losses under the hands of the officers and soldiers recently. Now he must have reached the point of poor skills. He sent people to quickly notify Gao Shuxian and let him allocate a batch of grain for his people and horses to eat. In addition, he allocated 20 pieces of cloth from the warehouse. Give it to them together to save them from the people because of lack of clothing and food in our control area!

In addition, ask Gao Shu to inform Luo Rucai first, saying that I, Xiao, am busy with military affairs and can't meet him for the time being. I'm sorry. Please take time to come to Ruzhou for a while after taking a rest in Lushi County! At that time, I will hold a banquet for him!

Let's say this for the time being. It's not too late to talk about it after Luo Ru comes over! The most important thing for us now is to take action first and take down Baofeng and Lushan!"

The generals immediately took orders and began to discuss the march into the army. After a short period of discussion and arrangement, Xiao Tianjian immediately ordered Luo Li and Liu Yaoben to lead a man and a horse each. With the cooperation of Situ Liang's cavalry battalion, he immediately divided his troops to attack Baofeng and Lushan counties.

After the two were ordered, they immediately ordered troops to set out and rushed to the two counties of Baofeng and Lushan aggressively. These two counties were attacked by Zhang Xianzhong half a year ago. Later, after Zhang Xianzhong retreated, the government took back the two places. The county wall of Lushan County is still dilapidated, and even the burned south gate has not been burned. It has been completely restored. Two simple wooden doors made of wooden boards blocked the gate cave, and there were only more than 300 officers and soldiers stationed there. In the face of the attack of the iron bone camp rebuilt under Liu Yaoben, they could not stop the soldiers of the Xingtian Army at all.

As a result, Liu Yao sent his troops to Lushan County. He only led a charge and did not even make a few cannons. He led his troops to attack Lushan County. It took half a day to completely remove the residual resistance in the city, and did not make any stop, leaving a company to guard the county, and personally led the troops out of the city to start After sweeping outside the city, the whole territory of Lushan County was controlled in the hands of the Xingtian Army in a few days.

When many local people heard that the Xing Tianjun was coming to attack, they immediately copied the guys to help the Xing Tianjun. All kinds of small poles and local thieves were looking forward to the wind. Liu Yaoben then selected more than a thousand people among these people, and pulled out more than 50 Xing Tianjun's troops from the headquarters as skeletons, and they were in Lushan County. A reserve battalion was formed, armed them with captured armor, and took over the city defense of Lushan County.

Luo Li hit Baofeng County and encountered some trouble, because the number of officers and soldiers in Baofeng County far exceeded that of Lushan, and because the Xingtian army attacked Ruzhou, he had been preparing to defend the city in advance with Baofeng County. After Luo Li led his troops to Baofeng, the defenders here actually sent troops to Luo Li overnight. After a surprise attack, he almost scattered Luo Li's barracks. Although Luo Li controlled the situation in time and repelled the night attack of the officers and soldiers, he also lost dozens of generals. Luo Li sent troops to the city and made a fierce attack on Baofeng County.

Baofeng's officers and soldiers didn't know what to eat. They were extremely excited. They were stunned to resist for three days according to the city, and also injured many of Luo Li's subordinates. On the fourth day, there were dozens of instigated soldiers in the city as inner responders, and suddenly attacked and robbed in the city. After occupying the gate, Luo Li led his troops into the county.

Even if the angry Luo Lidang unloaded captured general into eight pieces and threw it outside the city to feed dogs, and killed more than 200 prisoners in a row, he calmed his anger. After Xiao Tianjian learned about it, he scolded Luo Li. Xiao Tianjian was angry not because Luo Li killed the prisoner, but because Luo Li's intention. In the past few years The generals of the Xing Tianjun have almost become proud and tough generals. They don't pay attention to the officers and soldiers. As a result, the officers and soldiers almost succeeded in the night attack and were caught off guard. Therefore, this incident also highlights the common problem of underestriguing the enemy in the Xing Tian Army. Taking this opportunity, Xiao Tianjian fiercely criticized Luo Li. One pass.

In addition to the painful criticism, Xiao Tianjian also removed Luo Li's battalion commander and made him temporarily lead his original subordinates to make contributions. In this way, it also served as a warning to the people of the Xing Tian Army.

Luo Li was severely scratched by Xiao Tianjian and cleaned up, but he didn't dare to disovince, because this time he was indeed too careless. When he set up the camp, he didn't arrange the bright and dark whistle outside the camp, so he suffered such a loss. It was not the first time that Xiao Tianjian dealt with him like this. Luo Li is a god. After a big deal, you can also stand it.

After Luo Li captured Baofeng County, he immediately swept Baofeng County. According to the habit of Xing Tianjun, he immediately set up a reserve battalion on the spot to take over Baofeng's guard. At the same time, the civil servants under Luo Yingjie immediately stationed in the two counties and began to open warehouses to provide assistance to the people. In short, the Xing Tianjun has now formed a good habit. Customarily, the generals are responsible for strategy, and the civil servants are responsible for the subsequent stationing and taking over civil affairs. They have formed a good cooperation with each other, and they do not interfere with each other. In this way, there is no situation of attaching martial arts to writing. The generals are still simple soldiers and do not easily interfere in civil affairs, which also exempts Xiao Tianjian a lot. The trouble.

With the growing strength of the Xingtian Army, the territory is increasing day by day, and the number of soldiers and horses is also increasing day by day. It turns out that some of the Xing Tianjun's action systems can no longer work well. In the past, Xing Tianjun's territory was small and the number of troops were small. Xiao Tianjian could also effectively control all the territory and generals, but with various affairs With the increasing growth, Xiao Tianjian has gradually become unable to manage all kinds of things in detail.

So through the adjustment in the past six months, Niu Jinxing put forward a series of restructuring plans for Xiao Tianjian, especially to prevent the military from privately seizing property and holding materials around his station, which will breed the trend of luxury and corruption of the generals. Niu Jinxing proposed to set up a department to be responsible for each The supply problem of the local garrison, and the guards accompanying the army are responsible for collecting the things obtained after the war, which will be uniformly assigned to this department.

Of course, Xiao Tianjian understands this. Even if it is ordered to set up a Xingtian Army logistics department in Song County, it is fully responsible for the allocation and distribution of materials in each battalion, from armor and ammunition in the army, to shoes and socks, and grease for winter cold prevention, the needs of all the troops come from the logistics department.

Generally, after the war, after the military guards are responsible for the inventory, they are immediately assigned to the personnel of the logistics department to take over. All the things needed by each army are also allocated by the logistics department. In non-special circumstances, each battalion is not allowed to use the seized materials on the spot. Once verified, the punishment The division will be very serious. Although it turns out that some people in the civil service system will be transferred to the logistics department to work, these people will also be transferred to military positions, which does not mean that civil servants control the army. There is still an essential difference from the court's policy of suppressing military use of literature and military force, which also controls the generals of various departments by swallowing and capture in the future. It's a matter of self-respecting secretly.

There were still some remarks about this early military generals, but after Xiao Tianjian's establishment of the logistics department, the generals gathered together to explain this to them. At the same time, he also strictly warned them that this is an iron law, and no one is allowed to touch this system with pride.

Although the logistics department has not been established for a long time, and many entry systems are not perfect, this is also the foundation of Xing Tianjun in the future. Xiao Tianjian did not regard it as a trivial matter. Besides, since the beginning of the establishment of the army, Xiao Tianjian has long been ready to turn Xing Tianjun into a regular army, rather than a loose civilian army. The improvement of various systems should be gradually established to avoid problems in the future.

After the generals admonished Xiao Tianjian, they naturally did not dare to object. Then the logistics system was also implemented in the Xing Tianjun, and the first steward of the logistics department, Xiao Tianjian, appointed an unknown person named Luo Bin.

This Luo Bin is not very old. He is only 27 or 28 years old. In his early years, he ran a tavern in Zezhou. His business was not bad. Luo Bin has been studying since he was a child. He is very smart and can write and calculate well. After a little older, he began to help his father take care of his business and was responsible for some accounts. Later, because The world is in chaos, and business is getting worse day by day, and because his father offended a dunk from a powerful family in Zezhou. Later, the pub that was originally good in business was also confiscated by the government. His father was taken by the government to deduct the name of a gangster and was killed in the lobby. Luo Bin has also fled from Zezhou since then. He defected to the Xingtian Army.

Luo Bin is not very bold. When he is a soldier, he is always bullied, and he has no good performance in battle. However, he showed his ability to manage money in an unexpected thing, and he began to be transferred to Mr. Jin to work. Gradually showed his ability in logistics, and slowly got Xiao Tianjian's weight. Xiao Tianjian led his troops south, and Luo Bin also followed Xiao Tianjian south with the barracks, responsible for taking care of some material allocation and other things. Everything that passed through his hands had clear accounts and was handled in an orderly manner, so it was more and more important to Xiao Tianjian, and this newly established logistics department in Henan was created, Xiao Tianjian He personally mentioned Luo Bin to this position. Luo Bin did not expect that he was a backward person who had neither fame nor combat merit. He was put in such an important position by Xiao Tianjian, so there was no need to say that he was grateful. After taking office, he rushed to work wholeheartedly, but he did a good job and put Xiao Tianjian in the river. The supply of soldiers and horses in the south is quite good.

However, speaking of this, it is also gossip. Just after Luo Li and Liu Yaoben captured the two counties of Baofeng and Lushan, Xiao Tianjian, who was in Ruzhou, finally received an important message. A detailed man who was placed outside the area of Runing Mansion, risked his death and sent a message back. In Ruzhou, Jiangbei General Huang Depower led the 7,000 Beijing Battalion and the Jiangbei Army from Huainan. They have arrived at Runing Prefecture and are rushing towards Ruzhou.
