Chapter 674 Military Aircraft Department
"Everyone, winter is coming. The winter in Liaodong is longer than that in other places. But winter is also the time for us to concentrate on development and accumulate strength. Now, there are many talented and brave generals in Liaodong. I hope that you can quickly familiarize yourself with Liaodong's political orders and military affairs, integrate into Liaodong, and contribute your advice and efforts."
"We will obey the Lord's orders."
"Guo Jia, Lu Su, Xi Zhicai, you three have recently worked with Tian Feng to learn about the situation in Liaodong in detail. Tian Yu, you will assist. Once you are fully familiar with the situation in Liaodong, I will assign you positions."
"Man Chong, I will transfer you to be the magistrate of Xiangping to supervise the laws of Liaodong. Anyone who violates the law will be severely punished."
"Yes, my lord!"
Originally, because Liaodong lacked local officials, Man Chong was sent to serve as a county magistrate. Now that there are enough officials, Man Chong can be responsible for the judicial duties of the entire Liaodong.
Since the measures and policies in Liaodong were different from those elsewhere, even Guo Jia, Lu Su and others needed to familiarize themselves with the situation in Liaodong before they could start their work.
After temporarily arranging the civil service work, Lu Cheng looked at the group of military generals again.
"Li Dian, I will appoint you as a military officer and let you serve Zhao Yun. I will also assign you two hundred veterans to form a team with your three hundred young men."
"Yes, my lord."
"Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, after you two have settled your families, you can lead your troops to the Dashi Port to receive familiar ships. Wait until the winter snow falls, and then return."
"The last general takes command!"
"Dian Wei, stay with Huang Zhong and learn how to command troops."
"Yes, my lord."
"Xu Chu, take your Xu family's young men to the barracks for training."
After arranging many generals, Lu Cheng also started to get busy.
After being away from Liaodong for more than half a year, I have accumulated a lot of matters to deal with.
However, with so many advisers brought back this time, there will be someone to handle government affairs in the future, and Lord Lu Cheng will have much less work to do.
After being busy for two or three days, Lu Cheng finally managed to deal with everything and finally found time to meet Cai Zhaoji.
After not seeing her for more than half a year, Cai Zhaoji has become even more beautiful.
When he left, Lu Cheng left Cai Zhaoji some body-building pills and also taught her a set of health-preserving exercises.
Now, judging from Cai Zhaoji's development, she should not have been lazy in the past six months.
"Sister Zhao Ji, I haven't seen you for half a year. I miss you so much. Come here and let me see you."
"Who knows if you missed me? You came to see me three days after you came back. And... and you brought back a girl from the Zhen family, how could you still remember me?"
"Isn't this because of the busy official duties? As for Zhen Jiang, she is still a little girl, how can she be compared with sister Zhaoji?"
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, you can go and see it tomorrow. I've been thinking about my sister Zhao Ji all the time along the way. As the saying goes, I look at the sky in the morning and the clouds in the evening. I miss you when I walk and when I sit."
"That's good. I like it. If you say one more sentence, I'll forgive you..."
Although Cai Zhaoji would sometimes have a bad temper, she would calm down immediately if she was comforted.
Lu Cheng just casually said a few lines of poetry, and Cai Zhaoji forgot about being angry and instead pestered Lu Cheng to tell her about what he had seen and heard along the way.
Afterwards, the two of them played the piano and made music in harmony.
Perhaps due to the influence of her family education since childhood, Cai Zhaoji was extremely fond of literature and music, and had a somewhat literary temperament.
In contrast, Zhen Jiang, who was only fifteen years old, had some talent in business and accounting. Lu Cheng prepared a set of mathematics and business books for her to study at home. He also encouraged her to study hard so that she could manage the family expenses in the future, or even take over the business.
The little girl is studying very seriously now, and is determined to be a good wife to her husband after she finishes her studies. After all, she is only fifteen years old and is easy to fool.
After comforting Cai Zhaoji, Lu Cheng also asked Tian Yu to prepare a generous gift and propose to Cai Yong as promised.
Cai Yong readily agreed, asked for Lu Cheng's date of birth, and went back to calculate an auspicious date.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed. With the fall of the first snow in Liaodong, Guo Jia and others had become fully familiar with the mission in Liaodong and began to carry out their respective work.
Lu Cheng specially set up a Military Affairs Office, which was equivalent to the General Staff Office in later generations. Xi Zhicai temporarily served as the chief military advisor, assisted by Guo Jia and Tian Feng.
The Grand Council was responsible for routine strategic planning, tactical arrangements before war, and making plans during frontline battles.
If necessary, Lu Su and Tian Yu would also get involved to improve the battle plan.
Normally, Lu Su and Tian Yu and others were responsible for the entire Liaodong government affairs, and Lu Su also served as a part-time diplomat for Liaodong.
Tian Feng also held two positions, being responsible for both the work of the Grand Council and the work of the Government Affairs Council.
With these capable advisers, Lu Cheng only needs to formulate a general strategic policy and point out the strategic direction, and the remaining details can be left to them to perfect.
After a period of adjustment and understanding, Guo Jia and others have become fully familiar with the situation in Liaodong and the surrounding areas.
On this day, the General Office of the Grand Council.
Lu Cheng gathered everyone together and said to Guo Jia casually, "Feng Xiao, can you show us the recent intelligence about Luoyang?"
"Yes, my lord."
Now, the entire Liaodong intelligence organization has gradually been handed over to Guo Jia.
As a piece of information was passed to everyone, everyone looked cautious after reading it.
"My Lord, this information cannot be wrong, right?"
"No, the emperor in the Luoyang Palace should not have much time left. According to my calculation, he should have about half a year left to live. By then, the Ten Eunuchs and the foreign relative He Jin will definitely have a fight. He Jin is just a butcher, arrogant and ignorant, and he will most likely die at the hands of the Ten Eunuchs.
By then, those under He Jin will surely rush into the palace, kill the Ten Eunuchs, and cause a riot. It is possible that the court will have to dispatch foreign troops to the capital."
After hearing this, Xi Zhicai thought for a moment and said, "If we send foreign troops to the pass, it will inevitably cause chaos in the capital, and the throne will be in jeopardy. The prestige of the Han Dynasty will also plummet."
Guo Jia smiled slightly: "Your Majesty's two princes are still young. No matter which one inherits the throne, it will be difficult to stabilize the country. It is possible that he will become a puppet. At that time, whoever controls the emperor will be able to grasp the righteousness and punish the rebellious emperor."
"My lord, Liaodong also needs to make preparations early. We must sharpen our weapons and horses to prepare for the future."
"Of course. However, the Xianbei in western Liaoning have been restless recently, and the Xiongnu have also shown signs of rebellion. Before we march into the Central Plains, we still have to go to the grasslands. In the early spring of next year, I plan to send troops westward..."
