Overlord of the late Qin Dynasty

Chapter 277 Chu Army Reform ([-])

Xiang Yu nodded approvingly at Han Cheng's performance, and then continued: "The second one is for the Qin Nine Plains Legion in Zhao."

"What's the meaning of Duke Han's words?" Zhao Wang Wuchen asked each other aloud when he heard the words.

"The kings should know that Gu served Qin before he rebelled against Qin. He followed Qin's late general Meng Tian to resist the Xiongnu in Jiuyuan. strength." What Xiang Yu was afraid of was that the military official would not ask, but when the military official asked him, he said slowly.

"The generals, captains, and school captains of the Jiuyuan Legion all made friends with Guyou, and now the situation in the world is gradually becoming clear. Except for a small number of places that have not yet surrendered, the rest of the places have been recovered by various countries. The Jiuyuan Legion is because of the lonely A letter to suspend the offensive against Zhao State, so I just want to ask King Zhao to temporarily truce with the Nine Plains Army stationed in Zhao before the Qin State is destroyed!"

"Duke Han! The people of Qin and my people from the six kingdoms of the Guandong have a deep hatred. If you let me let the Qin army in Zhao land go, forgive me for not agreeing!" Before the military official could speak, Tian Dan, the king of Qi, yelled out angrily .

"Of course! Qin people continue to oppress the people of our six countries, causing the people of our six countries to go to three or four. This king also does not agree to the truce between King Zhao and the Qin army in Zhao!" Yan Wang Zang Tu also expressed aloud own opinion.

After hearing this, Wei Jiu and Han Cheng didn't say a word, they didn't expressly agree or stop them.In the eyes of the two of them, as long as it is not related to themselves, they will ignore it.

The military officials were very entangled when they heard this, because their strength could not be compared with that of the Qin army stationed in Taiyuan and other places. If the Qin army hadn't stopped the conquest when the offensive was strong, the restored Zhao country would have been destroyed long ago.When he heard Xiang Yu's words, Wuchen wanted to agree immediately.

However, Wu Chen was very afraid that after he agreed, Taiyuan and other counties would no longer belong to him after Qin was destroyed.That's why he didn't dare to say yes for a long time, pretending to be contemplative.

Li Shiqi, who was sitting at the bottom, had already seen the thoughts of the military officials, and immediately got up and said, "Taiyuan and other counties belong to Zhao State. If Qin State is destroyed in the future, General Wang Li will surrender to our allies. I don't know these counties and counties." How should the lord handle it?"

Seeing Li Shiqi's voice, Xiang Yu nodded secretly.Then he looked at Wu Chen and said: "King Zhao, don't worry, these counties belong to Zhao, and they will still belong to Zhao in the future!"

The military official saw that Xiang Yu's words did not seem to be fake, and thought that Xiang Yu would not back down in the future with the presence of the kings of the four countries.My heart suddenly settled down, and I immediately said: "If the Duke of Han can guarantee that the Qin army in the Zhao land will not provoke our Zhao country, this king agrees to a truce with him."

"King Zhao is magnanimous, he was able to hold a truce with the Qin army without abandoning the past. I believe that King Li of Qin will strictly restrain his troops and will not make things difficult for Zhao! In the future, the truce between King Zhao and General Wang Li will surely become a good story that will be passed down through the ages." After Li Shiqi finished speaking in Wuchen, he came out to praise and make a promise for Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu saw that Li Shiqi was able to agree instead of Wang Li, saving himself from having to make a promise, and felt even more fortunate to bring Li Shiqi to accompany him.

The military official was so praised by Li Shiqi that he forgot to get Xiang Yu's promise. Zhang Liang, who was on the side, immediately raised his wine bottle and said, "It is really a great fortune for all the kings to form an alliance regardless of past suspicions. Liang uses this wine For tens of millions of people, thank you kings! Please!"

After speaking, Zhang Liang drank it all in one gulp.

The military officials admired Zhang Liang's boldness, and Dang even raised his wine bottle to drink with the kings.

"The widow is also grateful to the kings for being able to personally upgrade the level of this alliance. I believe that in the future, the widow and the brothers will also be famous in the history! Please!" After everyone drank a bottle of wine, Han Cheng raised his hand Pick up the wine bottle and say.

"King Han is right! It's done!" Wei Jiu also raised his wine bottle to save face.

Everyone also raised their wine bottles one after another and drank the wine in the bottles.

Under the guidance of Wei Jiu and Han Cheng, the banquet was very lively.Soon, civil and military personnel from various countries began to leave their seats to communicate and chat with those who valued themselves.

The next day, Wei Jiu and Han Cheng took the lead to return to the capital with their own soldiers.

As soon as the monarchs of Wei and Han left, Qi Wang Tiandan and Yan Wang Zang Tu also bid farewell to Xiang Yu and returned home.

....................................... ..
Chenliu County Government Office, the main hall.

Xiong Xin was invited to a high seat in the main hall, while Xiang Yu was sitting on a large chair that had just been made.

All the civil and military personnel near Chenliu were listed, and after saluting Xiong Xin and Xiang Yu, they looked at Xiang Yu.

All civil and military personnel know that today's convening is so neat, it may be for the purpose of reforming the military system.After all, the matter of reforming the military system had been revealed intentionally or unintentionally as early as Xiang Yu's campaign against Chen Jun, and it was already known to everyone.

"Han Gong summoned so many civil servants and generals here today, but there is something important to discuss?" Xiong Xin sat beside Xiang Yu and asked cautiously.

As soon as Xiong Xin asked, everyone knew that the meat show was coming.

"Your Majesty! The current military system of our Chu State is mainly based on the Qin system and supplemented by the Chu system. But because of this, the army is in chaos. I have no intention of reforming the military system. I invite the king to come here today to let the king be a witness! Xiang Yu cupped his hands and answered Xiong Xin's question.

"The widow once said that all major military and political affairs in the country are attached to the Duke of Han. To reform the military system, the Duke of Han can do things at his own convenience. There is no need to ask the opinion of the widow!" Seeing that Xiang Yu bowed his hands but did not salute, Xiong Xin felt angry but could not break out , had to smile and said softly.

Ignoring what Xiong Xin said, Xiang Yu looked at Li Shiqi who was on the side and motioned for him to start reading.

After Li Shiqi saluted Xiong Xin and Xiang Yu, he opened the edict and began to read it.

After biting the words, Li Shiqi began to read out what everyone wanted to know.

"Five people form a team, and there is one leader; ten people are shi, and one is the leader; five are the capital, and the governor is set; two are the song, and the governor of the song can also be called the head of the song; the five songs are the department. The two divisions are the battalion, and there are Sima; the third battalion is the regiment, and there is a lieutenant; the two regiments are brigades, and there are captains; the third brigade is a division, and there are generals."

"The two divisions are the army, and the partial generals and Zhonglang generals are set up; the three armies are the legions, and the generals are set up."

"The ones above are the military system of soldiers!"

"Because our country of Chu has a vast territory..... The military system of the prefecture is five people, and a captain; ten people, a leader; five capitals, a small flag; two capitals. Qu, set up a hundred flags; Wuqu is a department, set up a general; Two tunes are battalions, set up a commander; The highest officer is in charge of the county's bandit suppression and defense, and is not under the jurisdiction of the county guard and directly under the Ministry of War."

"Because the government soldiers are in charge of suppressing bandits, and they are directly under the Ministry of War...... Each county is free to recruit yamen servants to be responsible for the security of the county and cooperate with the government soldiers to guard the city. However, the number of yamen servants recruited by each county shall not exceed Three hundred, while the county government cannot exceed five hundred. All government servants also belong to the Ministry of War, but they are under the command of the county. Yamen servants are divided into teams of ten, and there is a team leader; Set up a captain; set up a head catcher in each county to be in charge of the yamen servants under his command; set up a head catcher in each county to help the county guard manage the yamen servants in that county. Only simple knives can be equipped below the head catcher, and other weapons cannot be equipped!"
