The tip of the pen slides quickly along the surface of the paper, leaving trails of ink. Zhang Bin kept his hands on, reviewing the mountain of official documents in front of him. There are also four assistants in the room, each sorting documents. Those that must be handed over to the military, can be assigned to their dependents, and there are some materials that they can prepare by themselves.
Among the six divisions that had just been established in the Prefect's Mansion, Zhang Bin's division into the army could be described as the one with the most complicated affairs and the busiest work. Thanks to the formation of the army before, otherwise I don't know what the trouble will be. However, Zhang Bin did not complain at all. Bingzhou is now a pioneer system, and the military is the first of all things. The master entrusted him with the position of joining the army, which is precisely because of his trust and value.
After approving another roll of official documents, Zhang Bin was about to pick up another roll when a crisp ding sound suddenly sounded in his ears. I saw a small bronze man playing the small drum beside him. This is the sound of water propelling the machine, the sound of punctual timekeeping, and it is also a new invention of the craftsmanship. But on Zhang Bin's side, it's really just a matter of time.
Hearing this sound, the four people in the room raised their heads. Zhang Bin didn't even look at it, grabbed another volume of documents, and instructed: "You go to dinner, and someone will send me a copy."
The Governor's Mansion is now rationing a meal at noon, and when the time comes, you can go to the restaurant to have a full meal. Although the variety of food is not abundant, the taste is not bad, which is really a good deed for the low-level officials who are not very rich.
When Shangguan spoke, several people breathed a sigh of relief and saluted and exited the staff room. In the spacious room, there was only the sound of pages flipping. The recently built horse farm belongs to the military and is also under the control of the soldiers. After the autumn harvest, the farm work will gradually cease, and the troops will also enter the winter training, which also requires a lot of preparation. There are also the resources of the treasury to prepare for the war and the configuration of the staff of the various armies, which should also be processed as soon as possible.
Thanks to Zhang Bin's extraordinary energy and intelligence, otherwise this complicated affairs would be enough to overwhelm people.
After this autumn test, it seems that Sibing will need to add more manpower, at least to divide the two genera. Putting down the documents, Zhang Bin raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, secretly thinking about borrowing a place from Fan Long to train the staff more precisely.
Among the six divisions this time, his soldiers, Duan Qin’s households, and Fan Long’s priests were the three with the most authority. And the officials who were supposed to be powerful, because they could only appoint low-level assistant officials, and also had to take part-time exams, it became a thankless place. Cui Ji is honest and self-restrained, but he is competent. Judiciary is in charge of punishment, and it is most appropriate for Xu Xian, who is educated in Chen Dulu, to take charge of the punishment book. As for the clerk, Zutai's appointment to the post was beyond the expectations of many people. However, Zhang Bin had long known that the lord valued Chang Shi Zuti, and he was very fond of Zu Taizhi from the Qiushi Institute, so it was not surprising to choose him.
The Six Divisions had no obvious battles, but there were quite a few secret battles. One day the master will be independent, and this is the most important team. How to stand out from the six divisions is also what many people think. But for Zhang Bin, this was nothing. The military authority is already large enough, and how to cooperate with other functions is the key.
In the past, most of the staff officers came from the army officers who had gone to school because of their merits, were literate, and were proficient in arithmetic. There are also some underprivileged disciples who are familiar with military books can also use it. But it's not a long-term solution after all. If we can, like the Surveying and Mapping School, specialize in training available talents, the staff system can be preserved for a long time. The lord should not refuse this matter, it just depends on whether Fan Long can cooperate...
Just as he was thinking, there was a sound from outside the door. Zhang Bin thought it was the lunch deliverer, so he casually let people in. Unexpectedly, it was not a servant, but a messenger: "Join the army, a letter from Pingyang!"
Zhang Bin immediately sat up straight, took the wooden box presented by the other party, and waited for someone to exit the room before opening the box to check the mud seal. After confirming that the seal was intact, he took out the letter and picked up the book of scriptures on the case for comparison. With little effort, the contents of the secret letter were translated. After reading it twice and confirming it was correct, Zhang Bin got up and walked towards the back hall.
During lunch time, Liang Feng usually eats in the back hall. At this moment, the food had just been served, and before the chopsticks were moved, Zhang Bin came in a hurry. He raised his eyebrows: "Mengsun, but what's the matter?"
Zhang Bin handed over the letter in his hand: "There is a report in Xinling, and the Xiongnu Dynasty may change."
Hearing the word "Xinling", Liang Feng immediately came to his senses. Now in Bingzhou, there is only one agency named "Xinling", which is his newly established intelligence office! This organization is different from Jinyiwei and Dongchang in later generations, but follows the example of "Teco", and its main task is to collect information, explore secrets, infiltrate and even turn against the enemy. The name Xinling is based on the story of Lord Xinling's stealing the tiger talisman to save Zhao. Its importance cannot be overstated.
This was the first secret letter from Xinling, how could Liang Feng not take it seriously? He quickly took over the secret report, Liang Feng read it sentence by sentence, and sneered: "Wang Mi is domineering, and conflict with Liu's children is a matter of time. Liu Yuan will not sit back and watch the country collapse, fearing that the army will soon be launched."
This is also what Zhang Bin expected: "I am afraid that this time we will attack Jing, Yu, and Yan several states. The DPRK should send Gou Xi to fight. Do you want to further provoke civil strife among the Xiongnu?"
"It's not necessary now." After pondering for a moment, Liang Feng said, "I ordered the Xinling Congregation to continue lurking and not to participate in this matter for the time being. Liu Yuan is a smart person. If he does too much, it will be counterproductive."
Zhang Bin nodded yes. Liang Feng asked again, "What is the status of the person sent?"
"Has become a guest of Huyanyou." Zhang Bin said.
Huyanyou was the nephew of Liu Yuanzheng's wife, Empress Huyan. Although he did not learn a lot, he was ordered not to be reused by Liu Yuan. But his in-law relationship is there, and he is very close to the prince Liu He. As Huyanyou's guest of honor, there are many things that he can participate in, and in a subtle way, I don't know how many things can be affected.
Liang Feng said happily: "It's still Meng Sun's clever plan."
In that future time and space, Teko likes to send secret agents to serve as confidential secretaries, adjutants, advisors, and even close personnel such as the mistress's card friends, lurking beside the enemy, detecting the enemy's situation in all directions, and interfering with the other party's decision-making. "No one in the world is incompatible" is not a joke. In this era, it is not easy to become a private subordinate of dignitaries. Even if he sells himself and becomes a slave, he cannot get close to the other party in the slightest.
After listening to Liang Feng's brief description of the nature of Teko, Zhang Bin immediately selected a group of people as backup lurkers. That is the monk! Dharma is flourishing in Bingzhou, and although the monks are strictly controlled, they are still numerous. Among these people, not all of them are devoted to the Buddha, and there are still many ambitious people. Even if you can't find a suitable person, you can let the spy shave their hair, memorize the Dharma, and easily change their face and become a monk.
Coincidentally, both the Xiongnu and the Xianbei people believed in Buddhism. Half of the enemies surrounded by Ningshu can safely penetrate. Learn some superficial medical and illusion techniques, and have enough eloquence and courage to be promoted to this position. Only then did Xinling have a general framework.
Zhang Bin did not take credit: "If there is no master's clever plan, why would you believe in the people of Lingling? Now it is only a scratch. In three years and five years, if you only believe in the people of Lingling, you will be able to reach thousands of horses and thousands of troops."
This prediction is no exaggeration. Liang Feng smiled: "Meng Sun hasn't eaten yet? Come and have lunch with me."
Zhang Bin thanked the lord for such an intimate invitation and sat down happily. Liang Feng's lunch was not extravagant, and the two just ate and chatted, and then talked about other matters.

"This Tu Gezi!" After the court, Wang Mi yelled when he returned to the mansion. In the hall today, Liu Yao really made him unable to come down from the stage.
When Chang'an was attacked that day, the two had a lot of trouble. Although Wang Mi came from a family of 2,000 stones, since he started the army, he has always been looting and killing people. How could he let go of a capital like Chang'an? After the city was broken, they immediately sent people into the city. Unexpectedly, Liu Yao, who was also a striker, couldn't stand his actions, came to stop him, and killed his confidant, Fang. The two almost exchanged fire and broke up in an unhappy manner.
Now that I come back to recite the merits, Liu Yao brings up the old story again. This person is Liu Yuan's adopted son, and he has a lot of weight in Liu Yuan's heart. In addition, the Han state paid equal attention to appeasement. Earlier, there were means of massacres. After Liu Yuan became emperor, he didn't do much ruthless attacks, and he was able to win over the gentry. Wang Mi's actions were indeed taboo. If it wasn't for Liu Yuan to give him face, maybe he would have to be punished! After a good battle, it was full of anger, so how could Wang Mi not be angry!
"I think that Liu Yao is specifically targeting Brother A!" Wang Zhang on the side was also full of resentment, "This Hun dog just doesn't understand that we have to be taken seriously by Your Majesty!"
In one sentence, Liu Yuan was also scolded, but neither Wang Zhang nor Wang Mi cared about the details. After all, the Han state was respected by the Huns, and the Jin people who came to vote were still discriminated against. In particular, Wang Mi himself led the army, and was even more feared by the generals of the Hu people. It was also thanks to Liu Yuan's reconciliation that nothing happened.
Wang Mi squinted his eyes: "Anyway, Chang'an has also been captured, and Hongnong has also been captured. When we come down, we still have to lead the troops to fight. This time, His Majesty will not be indifferent. If we attack Yuzhou and Yanzhou, we will have more troops and horses available. already."
What Wang Mi thought wholeheartedly was not to die for Liu Yuan and the Hun-Han kingdom, but to continue to grow his own power. He was born in Qingzhou, but was beaten by Gou Xi and became homeless, how could he not be angry? Now that the army is strong and the horses are strong, it is time to take revenge!
Moreover, Liu Yuan also promised that if he wins Yanzhou and Yuzhou, he will be named the governor. This is something Wang Mi has been dreaming about for a long time. After thinking about the big plan, he barely suppressed his anger, and said bitterly: "When I win the two states, let's see what Tu Gezi can say!"
After scolding, he frowned again: "Shile Najiehu, will he also be ungrateful?"
Shi Le made great contributions to the victory of Chang'an before. Liu Yuan was promoted exceptionally and ordered him to stay in Yongzhou, ready to recover the nearby Qiang Hu. Qiang Hu also has 100,000 people in Yong and Qin states. If they can win it, it will really increase the strength of the Han state. However, this move also made Shi Le out of Wang Mi's control.
"Brother, don't worry, when Yuzhou and Yanzhou are conquered, Your Majesty is afraid that Luoyang will be attacked. Then will be the day when I will wait for the power! Brother A's kindness." Wang Zhang advised.
After thinking about this, Wang Mi no longer complained: "Go on, prepare troops and fight back to Yuzhou!"
