Chapter 228: Period Gate Army Yulin Cavalry
A country without a strong army is incomplete and has no way out. This is especially true for the Han Dynasty where there are vassal states inside and brigades outside.
However, the army during the Han Dynasty could not escape the control system since ancient times, and was mainly composed of the army under the central government, local army of counties and kingdoms and border defense forces.
However, facts have proved that this three-military distribution system is inevitable and a necessary configuration to maintain national stability.
Among them, the army under the central government includes the army of the capital and the stationed troops in strategic areas, while the army under the central government is the army under the capital.
Before the middle of the Western Han Dynasty, just before Liu Che, the army in the capital was divided into three parts according to different tasks: one was the emperor's guards led by the Langzhong Ling, the second was the palace guards commanded by the Guard, called the Southern Army. The third was the capital garrison commanded by the lieutenant, called the Northern Army.
Like Cheng Bushi was the guard of Changle Palace, and before going to Shangjun, Li Guang was the guard of Weiyang Palace, and before Zhidu came back from Yanmen, he was the lieutenant of the Northern Army, and was also responsible for the "criminal cases" in Chang'an City.
The Northern and Southern Army was well-trained and strengthened the public security of the capital. Due to the different affiliated systems, it avoided its rebellion. The Northern and Southern Army system was a major feature of the Qin and Han military system.
In recent days, in order to ensure the stability of the political situation in the capital and to resettle the orphans of the soldiers, Liu Che has reorganized the troops in the capital based on the northern and southern military system.
First of all, what he had to do was to reduce the organization of the Southern Army and then expand the close-fitting guards.
Not long after, when winter just came, when heavy snow had not arrived, Liu Che directly set up Qimen Army and Jianzhang Camp Cavalry (later known as Yulin Cavalry).
Where did the Qimen Army come from? It was also recruiting people from the children of the six good families including Guandong, Longxi, Tianshui, Anding, Beidi, Shangjun, Lianghe, and other six counties to select capable Qimen Guards. These six counties are not far from Chang'an, and have always been known for their outstanding cavalry, namely the so-called "Knights of Six County".
The orphans of Yulin, that is, the descendants of the fallen military officers, were absorbed into the Yulin cavalry, and were strictly trained and taught their skills.
Liu Che believes that the personnel of the Qimen and Yulin troops should be professional soldiers with strict selection and superb skills.
Although there are very few people who meet the requirements, it is because they have not been trained or are young, so Liu Che is not in a hurry.
It was precisely because of this that Liu Che could clearly feel that the emperor's close guard power had been enhanced. Secondly, the capital's security forces were adjusted to weaken the lieutenant's excessive power.
The lieutenant was removed from his power to be in charge of local military affairs in the Sanfu area, and sent an envoy of the Northern Army to control the Northern Army to issue power.
Finally, Liu Che set up the seven lieutenant army to strengthen the garrison in the capital.
Due to the different sources of troops, the reformed central army made the two armies constrain each other to avoid threatening the emperor's rule.
Together they formed a central army to deter local governments, further allowing Liu Che to carry out centralized rule.
Liu Che also mentioned this to the Taiwei Dou Ying, and the old man also praised it very much.
However, the southern army of the capital, led by Qi Quantian and the three men, was a little embarrassed. They seemed to be not caring about the three, because with Liu Che's prestige, the Weiyang Guards did not care much at all. When they established a new army, the contradictions were very sharp.
Liu Che had no choice but to no longer expand the Southern Army led by the three men in the whole day, and only retained the remaining ones in the battle, plus the newly added ones, totaling 12,000 people, each leading 4,000 people, and was divided into three armies, namely Nanjia, Nanxiu and Nanbao, collectively known as the Southern Three Army, and was trained as the confidant army.
However, their tasks are also very heavy. All the recruits recruited must be responsible for the training.
...
At this time,
After more than ten days of careful consideration,
He also took the courage to use the power of the whole day to report the memorial to express his desire to meet Liu Che.
Liu Che was afraid that she wanted to see him because something happened to her, so he agreed.
After one order, Bao Sang was sent directly to take her to Jinhua Palace to ask her if her business is going smoothly.
Qi Xiu'er is indeed very brave. If it were other women, she would not dare to ask to meet the emperor, but she did it more than once, which was the second time.
The Jinhua Palace is not big, and it is not as grand as the Xuanshi Palace. However, it is still easy to show off when seeing people. However, Liu Che rarely changed the meeting place to a pavilion outside the hall.
After all, the other party is a woman and a beautiful woman. Liu Che has a lot of social interactions with her, so he will not be too official and simply treat her as a man.
The fallen leaves are all over the ground, and the small pavilion and small pond are also a kind of beauty. Sitting at the stone table and looking at the red leaves of the clear pond, Qi Xiuer has experienced the feeling of peace of mind for the first time since she was doing business.
How to talk if you don’t speak?
Liu Che knocked on the table and attracted Qi Xiu'er's gaze. He smiled and said, "Don't you want to see me? Now that I've seen you, why don't you speak?"
Why does he seem to have become a different person?
Not too stiff,
It makes people feel relieved when laughing.
These thoughts flashed through Qi Xiu'er's mind, then she came back to her senses, and smiled softly: "The folk girl was distracted just now and let Your Majesty laugh at her, but the folk girl always felt that her reception had changed a lot."
"Change? Hahaha, I'm changing all the time, do you know Miss Qi?"
"Your Majesty is joking, who changes every day?" Qi Xiu'er covered her mouth and chuckled.
"If you believe, you have it; if you don't believe, you won't. Since Miss Qi doesn't believe it, then I won't talk about this. Tell me, what trouble will happen?" Liu Che spread his hands and said.
It seems that as soon as I come, it means that I am troublesome. Qi Xiu'er angrily said, "Your Majesty, why do you look like a troublemaker?"
She smiled very charmingly, and she acted coquettishly. Her eyes were full of autumn waves. After Liu Che took a few more glances, he had a guess in his heart, "Is someone interested in you and wants to use the opportunity to force you to marry you?"
"No."
"What's that?"
"It's a group of people who like the girls!"
Liu Che rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Then you are so popular!"
"Compared with His Majesty, it's nothing."
"This is a big trouble. If you are married by someone, then my investment will not be wasted? I am still waiting for your family to become a wealthy family and share my worries!" Liu Che said with a headache.
This is a disaster that is undesirable, but it is still a common phenomenon. It is not that Qi Xiu'er has never seen the sons of the prince occupy the daughters of the people, but most of them choose to calm down the situation.
She was unwilling to be a toy for those people. Qi Xiu'er said angrily: "The folk girl is full of disgust with them and would rather die than marry!"
"Oh, I'd rather die than marry? This is new. Let's do it. I'll give you a token and you will say that you are doing things for me in the future, so that they won't be bothered.
