The whole night was silent, and the next day Gongsun Xun went to deal with things by himself.

According to the general results discussed by General Wei and his core subordinates yesterday, the troops should be divided into four groups... On the one hand, Wang Xiu temporarily handled the civil affairs of the third auxiliary; on the other hand, Jia Xu set out to deal with the recruitment of Hongnong, and the remaining Liang in Luoyang

On the other hand, the generals such as Lou Gui and Han Dang discussed their merits and reorganized the army; on the other hand, they asked Xi Zhong, Xun You, and Zhong Yao to immediately issue an order to seek talents, and recommended talents on a large scale to enrich the army.

Shogunate.

Among them, the first three things can be done at the same time, and apart from Jia Xu's side, which can be expected in the short term, the other two things are destined to be taken seriously, and are destined to consume a lot of time and energy.

long-term things to deal with.

In this case, from Gongsun Xun's point of view, expanding the shogunate, recruiting talents, and unifying administrative powers have become top priorities, and have also become prerequisites for completing the other tasks.

To be more specific, it may be different from what many people think. It is actually very simple to expand the shogunate and establish a system... After all, the Qin and Han systems are actually very complete. These days, the shogunate has a complete military reserve.

System and talent recruitment system, the Sangong Mansion has a perfect political system for various things, including two plus nine plus one, a total of eleven cao and one pavilion.

Among them, the so-called "two" refers to Dong Cao, who is responsible for personnel affairs. Xicao is responsible for internal personnel deployment, and Dong Cao is responsible for external personnel deployment.

The so-called nine refers to the nine-cao system of the Qin and Han Dynasties, that is, the household Cao is in charge of the people's households, temples and mulberry farming; the zhuo Cao is in charge of discussing affairs; the resignation cao is in charge of lawsuits; the facao is in charge of postal and postal affairs; the wei cao is in charge of logistics and transporting matters for the people; and the thieves are

Cao Cao is in charge of thieves; Cao Cao is in charge of criminal and judicial affairs; Cao Cao is in charge of military affairs; Cao Jin is in charge of currency, salt, and iron affairs; Cao Cao is in charge of granary affairs.

Finally, there is a Huangge master bookkeeper, responsible for document storage.

Such a system, coupled with the original military privy system of the General's Palace, is really a complete Bafu system.

In fact, the later so-called Three Provinces and Six Ministries system of the Tang Dynasty, the Zhongshu, Privy Council, and Three Divisions systems of the Song Dynasty, and the cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty, including the military aircraft system of the Qing Dynasty. To put it bluntly, they are all variants of the Qin and Han systems.

, prime ministerial power; internal power, external power; civil power, military power, financial power... They play their own games, just making slight advances and retreats according to the characteristics of the times.

There is a saying that is very good, that is, the system of Qin will be followed by all generations...the things in the world are just like that, and these things are not so mysterious.

At this time, what Gongsun Xun has to do is to add the Eleven Cao and One Pavilion organization to his General Wei's Mansion, and then slap the table and send all matters in his territory to General Wei's Mansion for disposal.

That's all.

So back to the present, from this day forward, Gongsun Xun's real focus should be on talents, because without enough talents, the system of Eleven Cao Yige will be just an empty shell, no matter how perfect it is.

Therefore, Gongsun Xun is actually quite looking forward to today’s order seeking talents, Ma Teng and Han Sui’s pledge list, as well as Zhong Yao and Xun You’s recommendations... In any case, the original intention of taking down the center is to ensure that

The only thing that may affect his ability to whip the world will not be held by others, and the other is to take a fancy to the talents accumulated by the center over the years.

There is no doubt about the importance of talents. When it is said that everything is people-oriented, this person naturally refers to the integration of the people. However, when it is really used, the best among them must be selected to assume leadership and other important responsibilities, and this best person is

The so-called talent.

What has to be admitted is that the Central Committee, the bureaucratic complex that Gongsun Xun criticized in public, still has a monopoly on the most elite and most convenient group of ruling talents in the entire Han Empire... The ministers in Huangmen Shilang and the Shangshulang in Shangshutai.

, the censors at the Yushitai, and the court officials created by Dong Zhuo, who were mainly the children of ministers and ministers, are actually talents worth looking forward to, and they must not be killed with a stick.

But then again, the premise of all this is that it can be used by me, and it can't overwhelm the guest.

After all, employing people is politics.

"Pang De and Pang Lingming?" Under the shade of a tree in the courtyard of General Wei's mansion, Gongsun Xun took a piece of paper and raised his eyebrows slightly. "He is also considered a hostage? Han Wen's hostage for your appointment?"

By the way, that morning, Gongsun Xun ordered the door to be opened early in the morning, hung up the order seeking talents, and bluntly said that he would not refuse anyone who came. Then he sat in the courtyard and prepared to accept the world's talents. And soon, he was indeed there

The first wave of expected talent dividends, Han Sui and Ma Teng, were welcomed in the bustling city, and some Xiliang military leaders were the first wave of people to swarm over.

After all, these people don't need to worry about their face, and they are restless in Chang'an City, and the army is also trembling when surrounded by Gongsun Xun's army... so they are particularly anxious.

"Yes." Han Sui quickly stood up and said respectfully. "I'm not childless, but none of them are over ten years old. I'm afraid I can't serve the general. I only have one daughter who was born last year, and Liangzhou is poor and has too few young talents, so

So I simply recruited Lingming as my son-in-law."

Gongsun Xun, who was sitting under the shade of a tree, raised his head and thought for a moment, but he was still confused... If Pound became Han Sui's son-in-law, why did he always become Ma Teng's son-in-law?

Of course, what General Wei didn't know was that it was the battle he presided over at the Weishui River that day that killed Yan Xing, who was supposed to be Han Sui's son-in-law, and then allowed Pang De to take his place. As the saying goes, there was a reason.

That's all.

Of course, if you don’t understand, don’t think too much. Gongsun Xun immediately nodded: “In that case, Pang Lingming is indeed the best candidate. I heard that he likes riding white horses. In the past, he was called White Horse in Liangzhou. I also like him very much.

He is brave and loyal, and it just so happens that some of my military officers are being transferred out, so I asked him to bring over these Liangzhou disciples on the list to supplement them."

Han Sui was overjoyed and immediately leaned over to thank him.

Ma Teng also quickly stood up and handed a list of names to Jia Kui.

Gongsun Xun opened it and saw the word Ma Chao. He was even more shocked: "Ma Chao is your eldest son, right?"

"Exactly." Ma Teng responded immediately.

"Already crowned?" Gongsun Xun frowned even more. "It's not that big, right?"

"He is just fourteen years old, but he will be old enough to tie his hair when he is sent here... I want him to learn something from the general of the guard." Ma Teng responded earnestly. "And although this kid is only fourteen, he has already grown up early.

He is already able to mount a horse and wield a spear, which can be said to be strong and brave."

Gongsun Xun frowned even more.

By the way, it's not that he doubts Ma Teng's sincerity, but he has some doubts about Ma Chao... It's not a question of character either. A fourteen-year-old naughty boy, no matter how naughty he is, is thousands of miles away from home alone, and he is still in the army.

The key to being able to restrain her gradually is that the age of fourteen is really embarrassing and a bit too young.

But if you don’t accept it, then it’s even more wrong, right?

"General Wei." At this moment, Han Sui, who had just sat down easily, suddenly stood up and said. "Ma Chao is the eldest son of General Ma... He also has two legitimate sons, one is thirteen and the other is twelve.

Able to mount a horse and hold a spear."

Ma Teng looked at Han Sui in shock, but quickly knelt down to Gongsun Xun and apologized: "I definitely didn't mean to deceive the general. It's just that the other two sons are too young, and Ma Chao is not a bastard, but his mother is a Qiang."

"I have no intention of pursuing you." Just when Ma Teng was panicking for a moment, Gongsun Xun, who was too lazy to pay attention to Han Sui's little thoughts, finally nodded and said. "I just feel that I am a bit young, so there is no need to forcefully tie my hair... This is good.

Well, among the children of Liangzhou on the list, those over the age of 18 will follow Pang Lingming into Baima Yicong. Those under the age of 18, like your eldest son, Ma Chao, how about going to Changping to study for two years and then serve in our army?

"

Ma Teng naturally had nothing to say.

Now that the regulations have been decided and the two largest warlords in Liangzhou have successfully passed, then, next, such as Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi, Jiang, Yan, Zhao, Ren, Liang, Su, Song, Bian, etc. in Liangzhou

The wealthy families and military leaders also expressed their sincerity and all had their own children as gifts, so there was no need to say more.

Gongsun Xun put away the list and saw the group of Liangzhou warlords and nobles in front of him respectfully, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Everyone, do you know why I am so kind to you?"

Han Sui did his duty and said: "The king is magnanimous."

"It's not magnanimity." Gongsun Xun shook his head. "We just fought a battle last year, with over 10,000 casualties. Why should we deceive ourselves and others about magnanimity? The reason why I tolerate you is nothing more than a matter of urgency."

Han Sui, Ma Teng and below all laughed dryly.

"As far as the local area is concerned, in your Liangzhou area, firstly, the Qiang and Han people have mixed together, and the chaos has lasted for more than a hundred years. If you want to rebuild, it will be a long and heavy task; secondly, as long as Liangzhou does not invade Guanzhong, it has no bearing on the overall situation.

"Gongsun Xun continued to sit there and said. "As for people, although the Liangzhou Army is good at fighting, but trash like you, it seems to be invincible, but in fact, what it wants is just to separate itself for a while and seek personal happiness.

, has no great ambitions... Not to mention compared with Yuan Shao, even Tao Qian, Liu Biao, and Liu Zhang are far inferior. Therefore, as long as you are honest, I can naturally let it go and deal with Hebei first, and then I will reason with you...

...And you also understand this truth, so you dare to go to Xiwu to see me, and you still want to rely on me to stand up and sit still, right?"

Han Ma and others laughed even more apologetically.

Gongsun Xun also burst into laughter immediately, and then immediately stopped smiling solemnly: "That being said, when I am in power, I always have to follow the rules of the court. Moreover, my soldiers and horses are stronger than yours, and I have also openly defeated you.

Can I say something to you?"

Han Sui was still the first to react, and he immediately leaned over and said, "I am willing to listen to the general's orders!"

Everyone from Ma Teng on down also hurriedly bowed down and obeyed his orders.

"First, I don't care what you do. Hanyang County governs Jicheng and the passage east of Jicheng must be released. The imperial court will also send a new Liangzhou governor to station in Jicheng."

"Here!" He came up and wanted to seize the territory, but Han Sui and others still gritted their teeth and responded.

"Secondly, you are not allowed to fight with each other privately. If there is any friction, report it to the governor first. Sit down and don't mount your horse...I can make my own judgment on the right and wrong."

"Here!"

"Thirdly, the three counties in the north, headed by Ma Shoucheng, must pay attention to guard against the Xianbei in the west going south. If Bingzhou asks for reinforcements, they are not allowed to refuse; while the three counties in the west, headed by Hanwen, must try their best to maintain the Western Region passage and protect business travel." Gongsun Xun.

He continued to speak, but at this point, his words suddenly became harsh. "Finally, no harm is allowed to the people. As far as I know, the people of Liangzhou are quite peaceful under your rule, and the local people are relatively friendly to you."

Respect, this is actually the reason why I can really tolerate you. Otherwise, no matter how difficult it is, is it as difficult as asking Dong Dong? I have made it very clear in front of Hedong and Weiyang Palace before. If you really disobey me,

Then I will also kill Dong Zhuo, thousands of miles away, take your heads, and then tell the world... Everyone, I have known Dong Zhuo for more than ten years, so being able to keep his mother and granddaughter is nothing to you.

connection!"

Han Sui's Adam's apple moved slightly, but he was still the first to bow his head and say hello.

"In that case, I will go to the Emperor tomorrow and call you two generals, and then lead your troops back respectively." Gongsun Xun waved his hand. "There are so many things going on here in Chang'an, I really have no intention of entertaining you.

And you must go back early to stabilize the order in Liangzhou and appease the people of Liangzhou... tell them that the Han Dynasty has been stable for a hundred years, and Liangzhou has been in chaos for a hundred years. Now the Han Dynasty is all in chaos, but I, Gongsun Xun, have taken Guanzhong, so it is time to take another turn.

I feel a little more settled in Liangzhou."

Han Sui and others bowed their heads and said goodbye, and Gongsun Xun put away the list without thinking much about it.

It is said that it is rare for General Wei's palace to be open to the public, and it is naturally full of people. So after Han Sui and others left, the Yi Cong in front of the door immediately attracted people here. This group of people were three brothers, named Zhang Fan and Zhang Zhao respectively.

, Zhang Cheng was a famous martial arts sect in Hanoi, and he was the successor of Zhang Liang, the marquis.
