On the outskirts of Luoyang, on the sunset pavilion.

Jingping camp camped.

"Out of the spear, out of the stab!"

"Raise your shield, block!"

"Archers have to learn to be flexible, and all archers go around the school field ten times!"

"On the battlefield, we must learn to be fearless, we must advance when we hear the drums, and we must retreat when we hear the gold!"

"Our Jingping camp is a place that pays attention to military discipline and military orders, military discipline is greater than the sky, military orders are heavier than mountains, those who violate military discipline will be subject to military regulations, and those who ignore military orders will be decided!"

“……”

On the surrounding plains, there are several temporary school fields, on these school fields, Jingping soldiers are drilling, shield soldiers, spearmen, archers, cavalry, each arm is cooperating with each other, and the phalanx is constantly rehearsing, making a deafening sound.

"Brother, how are the captives who were captured on the battlefield doing lately?"

Chen Zhi and Luo Ying were patrolling the camp around, and when they walked to the place of the prisoner camp, looking at the captured soldiers, Chen Zhi asked.

Today's Chen Zhi is no longer the yellow turban boy, from Runan to Guanzhong has gone through many battles, and the tempering on the battlefield has made the fading childishness more and more mature, and he already has some leading temperament, wearing battle armor and holding a sword, and his bearing is even more extraordinary.

"After all these days, some soldiers are willing to submit to us!"

Speaking of this, Luo Ying had to praise some of the soldiers under his command: "This is also thanks to those young people who were born in Jingping Wubeitang, their ability to surrender is good, they take turns to fight, the mouthpiece lotus, but it is said that there are many generals of the Northern Army, in fact, I thought that the prince was planting eyeliner, and these teenagers were somewhat guarded, but now I know how long-term the prince is, these teenagers are literate and literate, quite a martial arts, and they lack a little battlefield experience at the beginning, so they did not appear outstanding, but now they have gone through many battles, But let them show it one by one, because of their presence, so that our soldiers have become stronger, some habits they inadvertently brought have changed many of our soldiers, and now the atmosphere in the army makes me feel very comfortable! ”

"That's right, so these people, we have to reuse!" Chen Zhi also has this feeling, for example, Zhang Shi under his command is the leader of Jingping Wubeitang, and he can already take charge of himself, even if he involves the whole battalion in military affairs on weekdays and has no time to manage the trivial affairs of the headquarters, Zhang Shi can handle it properly for him.

These are the talents.

Getting back to business, Chen Zhi's eyes looked at the Northern Army soldiers in the prisoner camp with different expressions: "So, you can let them out and do drills together?" ”

These captives are nearly 3,000 soldiers, once the integration with the Jingping battalion is completed, the Jingping battalion can have 5,000 troops, and the restoration of ordinary tacit understanding will inevitably make the combat effectiveness of the Jingping battalion rise steadily, but the premise is that they must complete the cooperation in drills, and then cultivate a tacit understanding between each other on the battlefield, so that it is possible to form combat effectiveness.

So Chen Zhi was already a little impatient.

"Maybe not yet!"

When Luo Ying heard this, he shook his head and said: "There are still a lot of diehards who are unwilling to give in, and they also encourage some soldiers to want to mutiny, kill a few, and stabilize themselves, but for the time being, they still have some resistance to us, and they forcibly blend, and the gains outweigh the losses, I think it is not appropriate to combine training for the time being, otherwise it will drag down the combat effectiveness of our entire battalion, and even form some changes!" ”

"There are people who want to mutiny, but they have the guts!"

When Chen Zhi heard this, he stopped, and squinted at several generals of the Northern Army standing in the prisoner camp, his eyes were very sharp, the captains of the Northern Army were almost dead, and the generals who could survive were all military marquis, but relatively speaking, the weight of these military marquis was not weak, if they usually encountered local soldiers and horses, even the generals at the captain level could be compared with them, and their influence was great.

But the combat effectiveness of the Jingping battalion, there is no problem guarding them.

If you want to mutiny, it is simply impossible.

Chen Zhi's eyes were vivid, looking at these generals, and said coldly: "In this case, we don't need to be too polite, the imperial court has just made a holy will, the lord was named the Marquis of Ming, rewarded ten thousand households, led the hussar general, and the prince was also crowned as the general of Jingping Zhonglang, Zhonglang will be able to unify the army, my Jingping battalion is naturally promoted to the army, under the first army, the expansion is inevitable, several of us also have military positions, all of them are captains, we can't continue to wait like this, tell everyone, as soon as possible to capture those die-hard generals, it's really not good, kill, The Jingping Battalion has become the Jingping Army, and the rectification must be completed as soon as possible! ”

"But it will take time!"

"It's just that what we lack is time!" Chen Zhi is very tough.

"What does the prince say?" Luo Ying thought for a while and asked.

"After the prince came back from His Royal Highness the Holy Maiden, he retreated in the pavilion, let the guards Qu be on guard, except for Huang Zhong and Huo Shao, no one was allowed to enter or exit, yesterday when I wanted to discuss with him, Huo Yu passed on his military order, and Jingping Jun temporarily gave me full authority to act."

Chen Zhi clenched his fists, and there was a touch of excitement in his eyes: "Since the prince of the world ordered me to act as an agent for military affairs, then I can't let the prince down, so I must complete the rectification and reorganization of the Jingping army as soon as possible, and ask my brother to help me!" ”

"Small, you've always been the most talented of us!"

Luo Ying is actually a little jealous of Chen Zhi, since he returned to Mu Jing, Mu Jing has looked at Chen Zhi differently, everyone looks at it in their eyes, how can he not have a little jealousy, but he is not a calculating person by nature, and he also has self-knowledge, Chen Zhi is promising, it is because of Chen Zhi's talent, not because of Chen Zhi's flattery.

"Since the prince values you so much, I should do my best to help you!" Luo Ying arched his hand and said: "I will try my best to persuade them, if I can't persuade them, I will kill a few, and within three days, let them join the training of Jingping Camp!" ”

Another point, Mu Jing is not the little guy who was not famous in the past, he has a lot of talents, there are talents in the literature, and there is Huang Zhong, a fierce general who has gradually become famous in the world, although these generals are descendants, but after all, their strength is insufficient, so if they want to continue to rely on Mu Jing, someone must be in charge, Chen Zhi is the only person among them who has the ability to make Mu Jing important.

"Thank you, brother!"

Chen Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, all along, Luo Ying had been playing his brother's position, so he cherished this relationship very much, and he didn't want to be estranged by Luo Yingcai because of his status in Jingpingying.

……

In the pavilion of the Sunset Pavilion.

This place has been separated by bamboo mats and linen cloth to form an independent wing, in the wing, there is a screen, under the screen, bursts of water mist linger on it.

"Whew!"

Mu Jing slowly got up from a bath bucket, exhaled a mouthful of turbid breath, and then walked out, wiped the water stains on his body with a bath towel, the water was a little dark green, he wiped it a few times before wiping it clean, and then put on a set of white robes and walked out of it.

"How does it feel?" Zhang Ning was dressed in a men's robe, heroic and cool, strode up to meet him, and asked nervously.

She not only asked, but also directly put her hand on the meridians of Mu Jing's wrist and carefully investigated the meridians in his body.

"I'm fine!"

A bright smile appeared on Mu Jing's face: "The faint tingling sensation in the meridians has disappeared, and I can feel the breath in my body running smoothly!" ”

Since the end of the battle of the Sunset Pavilion, the Violent Bear Army and the Nanyang Army have entered the city one after another, but outside the city where Jingping's camp stayed, Mushan was busy stabilizing the government, and Mujing did not get involved, and even the new emperor did not go to succeed him, not that he wanted to be lazy, but that he had to calm down.

Because Zhang Ning found the herbs that could regulate the wounds left by his martial arts practice, he has been conditioning his body these days.

"This ancient recipe handed down from the Taiping scriptures is really effective!" Zhang Ning could feel that the veins in Mu Jing's body were beating back to normal, she breathed a sigh of relief, in order to find this piece of medicinal material, she took the risk of going to Hedong, and almost exposed her whereabouts, let the people of Baibo and Yellow Turbans chase and kill, and can manage Mu Jing well, without leaving the hidden danger of practicing, this is the best comfort.

Warriors have always had a short life.

That is the problem of practicing, martial artists practice, most of them are radical, and it is easy to hurt the meridians and inner government, so even if the skill is strong, it is difficult to enjoy the longevity of ordinary people.

Only some alchemists, who do not seek to be strong in their skills, can maintain their lives and live a long life with their skills.

"Thank you!" The corners of Mu Jing's mouth raised slightly, and said.

"Humph!"

Zhang Ning snorted coldly, and didn't appreciate it: "If there is a next time, see if I can cure you!" ”

After finishing speaking, she glanced at Mu Jing, and twisted Xiaoman's waist and left.

Mu Jing shook his head speechlessly: "A woman's heart, a needle under the sea, it's really hard to guess, I was worried just now, and I turned my face when I said it!" ”

After two lifetimes, he thinks that his mind is strong, but the subject of women is always a puzzle, an unsolvable mystery, and a fascinating mental puzzle, which can always make you lost.

"Shizi, you've finally come out!" When Mu Jing walked out of the pavilion, Huo Shao hurriedly greeted him.

These days, Mu Jing has not seen anyone, everyone has been blocked under Zhang Ning, and even Huang Zhong and others can't enter, but the news of the imperial court keeps coming, and the generals are naturally very anxious.

"What's going on?"

Mu Jing looked at the sun, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised a comfortable smile.

"Five days ago, the new emperor succeeded to the throne!" Huo Shao hurriedly reported: "The year name is Guangxi! ”

"Emperor Guangxi?"

Mu Jing heard this and smiled, he was not surprised by this, the country cannot be without a king for a day, since Luoyang has been decided, the succession of the new monarch is inevitable.

But these days, he is hiding to recuperate from his injuries, and he really doesn't know what is happening in the court now, he thought about it and said, "Let Xi Zhicai and Tan Zong come to see me!" ”

"No!"

Huo Shao took the order and left.

A quarter of an hour later, the pavilion had been rearranged, the previous screen bath bucket had been removed, bamboo mats were laid on the floor, and there were some grass balls, and a few desks were arranged.

Mu Jing knelt on the top seat, and Xi Zhicai and Tan Zong all sat in columns.

"Hehe, Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden is really a national color and heavenly fragrance, which can make our Shepherd son sink into it, and today it is really an honor to see the prince finally come out of the gentle township, but look at your pale face and weak feet, young man, you can take it easy!" Xi Zhicai laughed.

Although the old injuries in Mu Jing's body have been removed, he does have a little bit of vitality and needs to be replenished for a few days, so he looks a little pale and a little weak.

"Get out, Lao Tzu is conditioning the body, not as dirty as you think!"

Mu Jing gave him a knife eye angrily, and said: "People say that the filthy soul is filthy, and only filthy people will think about a very good thing. ”

"Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black, it may be that there are more people who have been close recently, and this thought has also been affected!" Xi Zhicai made a serious rebuttal.

"Tan Zong, tell me about the affairs of the imperial court!"

Mu Jing began to change the topic and quarrel with Xi Zhicai, he never won, and he didn't want to do masochistic things.

"No!"

Tan Zong looked at his nose and nose, and he couldn't get into the two of them, so he sat upright and heard Mu Jing's order, so he stood up and replied: "On June 6, the crown prince Liu Wei was crowned Chan Nangong and ascended the throne as the emperor. ”

"Hussar general?"

Mu Jing squinted: "Who is the general?" ”

The military system of the Han family, the general is the commander, commanding all the soldiers and horses of the Han family, which is comparable to the power of the three princes.

"The post of general has been removed from the imperial court!"

Tan Zong replied: "There is another authority for the Great Sima, and Dongzhuo of Xiliang is crowned as the Great Sima!" ”

"Dong Zhuo?"

Mu Jing's pupils burst out with a fierce essence: "I can't suppress him!" ”

"It's not that he can't be suppressed, it is estimated that someone in the court wants to use Dong Zhuo to balance the military power of Lord Taifu!" Xi Zhicai smiled indifferently and analyzed.

"Xiliang Army?"

Mu Jing said: "It seems that I have to guard against it!" ”

"Don't worry so much, although Dong Zhuo was named the Great Sima, he still understands the importance of being honored, so he prepared a big gift on the same day, and personally went to the Taifu Mansion to have a long talk with the Taifu!"

"It's kind of interesting!" When Mu Jing heard this, he said, "He's not such a person!" ”

"But he has Taoguang people under his command!"

"Li Wenyou!"

"Don't underestimate this person!"

"Tan Zong, keep an eye on them in the future, in the Xiliang Army, as long as he is the chief general of the army, even if he is above the rank of captain, if he has any action, he will report it!" Mu Jing still has a lot of fear for the Xiliang Army.

Today's history has been shattered by their father and son, and Mushan has replaced Dong Zhuo and become the biggest winner under this alternation of imperial power, but the strength of the Xiliang Army has always been a trouble.

"Understood!" Tan Zong nodded.

"Go on!" Mu Jing waved his hand and said.

"Yes!"

Tan Zong continued to report some movements in the court, and finally talked about Mu Jing's current treatment: "Your Majesty personally issued a decree to seal the prince as the general of Jingping Zhonglang, with a military position of two thousand stones, leading the Jingping army, and Zhenshui Pass!" ”

"Bishui Pass?"

Mu Jing's fingers moved quietly, his eyes were blurred, and his thoughts became restless: "Expelled me from Beijing?" ”

"Probably not!"

Xi Zhicai shook his head: "Bishui Pass is not far from Luoyang, under the fast horse, it can be reached in one day, there is no need for this!" ”

"Your Majesty, I know, I don't necessarily have too deep thoughts, I think this is the will of the Queen Mother!"

"Why?"

"I don't know!"

"And how are you going to deal with it?"

"The holy decree has been issued, we must not be disrespected, after all, we need to stabilize the situation in the vicinity, and we can't let them attack my father unscrupulously!" Mu Jing shrugged his shoulders and said: "But it's okay for the Jingping army to go, and Bishui Pass is also a military town, so it's better for the Jingping army to practice, but I still have to stay in the capital for a while, and I want to stabilize this government for my father!" ”

Mushan stays in Luoyang, it is inevitable to take power, but the turmoil continues, the foundation is too shallow, one is not careful, then it will capsize, it is easy to stabilize the government, and it is too difficult to stabilize the ambition of the people in the world.

He didn't want Dong Zhuo's history to fall on his father.

"The reason is not difficult to find, if you have been sick for a while, with the deterrent power of Master Taifu now, there will not be much of an obstacle, but it can't be too long, if you change for a long time, if you change, if you change, you will be chaotic!" Xi Zhicai said.

"Hmm!"

Mu Jing thought for a while and looked at Tan Zong: "Tan Zong, how is your layout in the capital?" ”

"It takes time!"

Tan Zongdao: "In the capital, the roots are intertwined, one wrong step, one wrong step, you need to be cautious, please give me some time, I will ensure that this Luoyang City is under the control of the lord!" ”

"Tan Zong, down from Mushroom Mountain, you and Lei Hu can be regarded as the leaders of the young generation, all along, you have done something for me behind you, and you have made great contributions, but you are unknown, I have never given you an official position, even my father does not know how much power you have in your hands, so I underestimate you, it is better to weigh you than Lei Hu's weapon. I've wronged you! Mu Jing stood up, walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and said.

"It is the honor of Tan Zong to be able to serve the Lord and serve the son, and Tan Zong has never been wronged!" When Tan Zong heard this, his eyes suddenly turned red, and his voice was deep.

He is just a teenager, although he is calm, but there are still some juvenile emotions, Lei Hu is now the head of the pioneer battalion, famous all over the world, and one of the young generals under the command of the lord, but he thinks that the merit ability is not under Lei Hu, but he is unknown, even the Violent Bear Army, the Nanyang Army, and even the Jingping Battalion, there are not many people who can know him, how can there be no grievances in his heart.

"Today, I will set up another department in addition to the Jingping Army, which will be commanded by you personally, equivalent to the captain, and will be directly responsible to me!"

Mu Jing held Tan Zong's shoulder and said, "As for the name......

He thought for a moment and said casually: "Then it's called!" ”

Ever since the day he opened an intelligence network with Tan Zong, he had already had this idea, and it was imperative to establish an intelligence agency.

Before, I was busy gaining a foothold and didn't have time at all, but now, it's time to put it into practice.

As the saying goes, when a large army pulls out a camp, grain and grass go first, and when the two sides go to war, espionage comes first, and intelligence is always the most important link in a war.
