Cao Cao and Sun Jian secretly formed an alliance, and were planning to bring Liu Bei together.

They felt that they had done a good job of keeping secrets, but they couldn't even hide it from Xu Ding.

After Cao Cao talked with Lu Fan, Xu Ding knew about it.

In order to fight this battle well, Xu Ding recruited civil servants and held a meeting.

"The enthronement is imminent. However, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and Liu Bei are secretly planning to start a war with me. We can't be in the joy of founding the country, we should make preparations early. I intend to use military parades and reforms before enthronement In name, the elite of each state and county should be transferred to Yanzhou. Our capital should also be located in Xu County in Yingchuan County. This will help us face the alliance of Sun, Cao and Liu." While speaking, Xu Ding had already made people put A map hangs on a screen.

It can be seen from the map that Xu County is located exactly in the middle of Sun Cao Liu.To the west are Chang'an and Luoyang, to the east is Sun Jian's Yangzhou, and half of Jingzhou.And crossing the Yellow River north, you can go to Bingzhou.

The three places are not far apart.

Xi Zhicai cupped his hands and said, "My lord, it is quite troublesome to set up the capital in Xu County. All our food, equipment, supplies, and the family members of the ministers are all in Donglai and Weiyuan Island. If we want to move to Xu County, It cannot be completed in a few months. And the time for ascension to the throne has already been set in two months."

Xu Ding said: "It's okay to postpone it for a few months. Sun Caoliu wants to make a big fuss by taking advantage of my proclaiming the emperor. In other words, they won't send troops until I proclaim the emperor. Just like ours When the army goes to Yingchuan, we can take back the other half of Yuzhou and repair Xu County."

"I've already figured this out, you don't need to persuade me anymore."

"Yes."

All civil and military officials responded.

Xu Ding picked up a document from the table and handed it to Xi Zhicai: "Look at it all, this is my plan for the restructuring of the military and the system of officials after the founding of the People's Republic of China. If there is no objection, it will be implemented like this. "

Xi Zhi just took the file.

First of all, in terms of official system, the system of three provinces and six ministries is implemented.That is, the Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province who are in charge of civil and military confidentiality.The Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Punishment are all in charge of the country's government affairs.However, considering that the three provincial departments are not conducive to the concentration of power, a military aircraft department will be established above the three provincial departments.The Military Aircraft Department is in charge of the military affairs of the world, as well as the review of all six affairs.

In terms of military restructuring, Xu Ding has set up a complete organizational system.

First of all, gather all the regular troops in Yanzhou.

Except for the firearms army, all participated in this adaptation.

Set up seven armies.

Each army has 1 to 5 people (depending on the situation, some troops cannot be separated, so the number is larger).Each army has a general as its commander.Under the jurisdiction of several school lieutenant battalions.Each school lieutenant battalion has 5000 people, with one school lieutenant.Under the school lieutenant, there are commanders of thousands, commanders of centurions, commanders of divisions, and commanders of corps.This is not much different from the previous establishment.

But the purpose of the restructuring is to make it easier to command.

Therefore, the troops participating in the restructuring are likely to have their previous organizational system disrupted and some numbers revoked.

The firearms army is temporarily set at 5000 people, and it is also set as an army, with divisions, brigades, regiments, and battalions under its jurisdiction

Considering the small number, only one brigade, one reinforcement regiment and guard battalion are formed.

After Xi Zhi finished reading the document, he passed it on to other civil and military officials.

Zhang Jai, who had just returned to Huang County, frowned and said, "My lord, once the system is restructured, will the number of Euphorbia Warrior be revoked?"

"Not necessarily. I'll think about it after the army is concentrated." Xu Ding didn't want to revoke the number of the Euphorbia soldier, but if it was to meet the needs of the war, it had to be revoked.

However, no matter how it is changed, the army is still the same army and will not change.

Guo Jia said: "In fact, there are advantages and disadvantages to the restructuring. Now that the war is imminent, will the reorganization affect the combat effectiveness of the army? My lord, you need to be careful."

"That's right, it won't be too late to change after beating Sun Cao Liu." Xi Zhicai also said.

"Our army is too messy and inconvenient to command, don't you realize it? I restructured it just to make it easier to command. How could it weaken the combat effectiveness?" Xu Ding waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's not discuss this issue. I've made up my mind."

"Follow filial piety."

"exist."

Xu Ding ordered: "Registration will be postponed for several months. First order the elites of the states and counties to gather in Yanzhou. Remember, this order must be issued in the name of restructuring and military parade, otherwise Cao Cao will think that his plan has been leaked , he will raise troops in advance, although I am not afraid of him, but for us, it is not the most favorable time."

"Afterwards, we gradually went to Xu County. After ascending the throne, we sent troops to attack Sun Cao and Liu, and ruled the world in one fell swoop."

"As ordered."

Guo Jia agreed.

The enthronement was almost ready.Just wait for the auspicious time to build a country.Unexpectedly, Xu Ding would suddenly make up his mind to set up his capital in Xu County, so all the previous work would be in vain.

But Guo Jia understood Xu Dingguo's intentions.

Xu County is indeed a good strategic place.It is located in the central area of ​​Sun Cao and Liu, and Xu Ding can gather heavy troops there to prevent Sun Cao and Liu from joining forces.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, if you send troops from Xu County, no matter who you attack, you can arrive within a few days.Sun Cao and Liu Lian didn't even have a chance to meet, so they would definitely be caught off guard.

Moreover, setting the capital in Xu County, Xuzhou, Qingzhou and other places has become the rear area.There are cement roads in those places, and there are railways in Qingzhou. All war resources can be delivered in the fastest time.

For the next battle, it has an advantage.

Although troublesome, Guo Jia still supports Xu Ding.

Fifteen days later.

Xu Ding moved to Xu County with the first batch of civil and military personnel.

Prior to this, he had already appointed Guoyuan as the magistrate of Xu County, and went to repair Xu County first.Accompanying him were the euphorbia warriors with Zhang Jaw and Min Rou's Guiyi Army.

The officials and troops promised to bring to Xu County on this trip accounted for about [-]% of Donglai.

Xu Ding's wife and children, as well as the family members of civil and military ministers, also went with them.

From Donglai to Yanzhou, it is either a railway or a cement road. The road is good and the speed is naturally fast.It took only half a month for tens of thousands of people to move with their families, troops, and people who voluntarily followed.

During this time, war broke out in Yuzhou.

Zhang Jai and Min Rou, who rushed to Xu County first, launched an attack on Yuan Shu in the south of Yuzhou in order to eliminate the enemy in Yuzhou.Yuan Shu's territory is very small, and his army is weak. Even a general who can recruit and fight well is useless under his command.Min Rou led the Guiyi army to kill them, and wiped them out easily.Yuan Shu was defeated and fled to Yangzhou.

Since then, Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Xuzhou have been connected together, including the surrendered Lu Bu's territory, which has also been fully taken over by Xu Ding.

this day.

Xu Ding arrived outside Xu County.

Looking at the tall Xu County city tower, I was a little surprised: "I didn't expect Cao Cao to stay here for several years and build Xu County so solidly. It's a pity that he is not blessed to enjoy it."

"Xu County is really grand. I'm afraid it's better than Runan Mansion." Guo Jia said.

"Runan, Runan is still in Yuan Shu's hands?" Xu Ding asked.

"No, it has been recovered by General Min Rou."

Xu Ding nodded and said: "Okay. Yuan Shu's centipede is dead but not stiff, this time he is completely kicked out."
