Qian Sule said suddenly: "Otherwise, Qian Mou will convene the previous rebels again, after the last convocation, my son has already registered the stranded people in Shaoxing Mansion, and it is not difficult to summon them." ”

Wu Zheng was a little unhappy when he heard this, because in the Lianghu Guard, the Qian family's power was too great.

Wu Zheng didn't want to have a mountain under his command.

So he made an excuse and said: "But if it is not supplemented by the Ministry of War, this unauthorized gathering of soldiers is a big crime." ”

I don't want Zhang Guowei to say: "Even in the Ming Dynasty, thousands of households in the wartime guard can also gather stragglers, which is not violated." ”

Zhang Guowei's words are naturally correct.

The reason why the Ming Dynasty set up the guard station, with 100 households and 1,000 households as the basic units, was that there was a consideration of the civil mutiny army in wartime.

The full number of 1,120 people in the 1,000 households is 1,120, but in time of war, soldiers can be called up from the military households under the jurisdiction of the 1,000 households, and the number of soldiers is not limited, but they can only be called from the military households within their own offices.

For the sake of distinction, the 1,120 men were called regular soldiers, and those who were temporarily called skirmishers.

Therefore, Wu Zheng did have the authority to gather his own soldiers.

As soon as Zhang Guowei said this, Wu Zheng couldn't hold on.

Thinking that after all, it was for the preparation of the spring next year, so he nodded and said, "Then let's do it according to Lord Qian's wishes." ”

Speaking of this, Wu Zheng suddenly bowed his hand to Qian Sule and said, "First of all, I will confess to Lord Qian." ”

Qian Sule was stunned for a moment and asked, "What did Wu Qianhu do to offend Qian?" ”

"If Wu Zheng is not promoted, I'm afraid that Ling Lang will not be promoted, isn't this offending Lord Qian?"

Wu Zheng means that he is a thousand households, and this time in order to continue to hold Liang Huwei in his hands, he is unwilling to be promoted, so Qian Qiaogong, who is a subordinate, will naturally not be promoted.

Because Qian Qiaogong is already a hundred households, Wu Zheng can't move, and he has no chance to rise.

Qian Sule and the three of them were stunned at first, and then they all laughed.

Zhang Guowei pointed his finger at Wu Zheng and said: "You are also a veteran who has been in the army for several years, don't you know that in addition to thousands of households, there are also deputy thousands of households?" ”

Wu Zheng's face suddenly cooled, "Wu Zhengzhi, in order to fight against the Tartars next year, the Lianghu Guard cannot set up a deputy thousand households. What I want is to order a door, up and down concentrically, set up a deputy thousand households, which is equivalent to planting a seed of split, the imperial court wants to set up a deputy thousand households, I naturally can't stop it, but I hope it will be after the spring fights against the Tartars. ”

That's right, in the army, the most taboo order is to go out of many doors.

The functions of the deputy thousand households are different from the relationship between the head of the regiment and the deputy head of the regiment in later generations.

In later generations, the regimental commander was responsible for all military affairs, and the deputy regimental commander was the auxiliary regimental commander.

But the deputy thousand households have considerable real power, such as the Lianghu Wei Office, a high-class thousand households, the establishment of ten hundred households, the deputy thousand households can control at least three hundred households.

In other words, the deputy thousand households are a supplement to the thousand households.

Zhang Guowei understood, not only understood the literal meaning of what Wu Zheng said, but also heard the meaning of Wu Zheng's words.

Qian Sule naturally understood, and scolded in his heart, this bastard is not stupid.

Qian Sule actually values Wu Zheng very much, although he does not agree with Wu Zheng's nonsense, but he still appreciates Wu Zheng's character. But it is precisely because of this that Wu Zheng is taboo and guarded against Wu Zheng.

I am afraid that Wu Zheng will be young and frivolous, hot-headed for a while, and do irreparable wrongdoing.

The so-called love is deep, and hate is cut.

And in this battle, Qian Sule was even more grateful to Wu Zheng.

In his opinion, Wu Zheng fulfilled his promise, Qian Qiaogong lived well, and was recommended by Wu Zheng as the first credit.

Wu Zheng was the chief general of the Battle of the Three Realms temporarily appointed by Zhu Yihai this time, and the list of the first meritorious personnel recommended by the chief general for meritorious service, if there were no major omissions, according to the usual practice, the military department would not easily veto it.

Therefore, Qian Sule was grateful to Wu Zheng.

But gratitude is grateful, and precautions must be guarded.

Qian Sule took the opportunity of Wu Zheng to ask for soldiers, and then stuffed the volunteers he organized into the Lianghu Guard, which naturally also had the intention of manipulating the guard, which is beyond doubt.

Zhang Guowei also understands this meaning, but Zhang Guowei does not say anything or block it, which is naturally the default meaning.

coupled with refuting Wu Zheng's temporary excuses, he naturally sided with Qian Sule.

Hearing Wu Zheng's agreement, Qian Sule suddenly said: "Wu Zheng, although the Qian family can't be said to be rich back then, it is also a rich family in the local area. Qian has only one son and one daughter under his knees, and he put the dog under your command, not to be promoted to the rank of lord, let alone to leave and split the Lianghu Guard, you don't have to doubt this. There is only one thing Qian is for, that is, you are too young to let you go down the wrong path. Also, if you are unwilling to be promoted this time, the dog should naturally not be promoted, and you don't have to apologize to Qian for this. ”

Looking at Qian Sule's clear eyes, Wu Zheng sighed in his heart and arched his hand: "Lord Qian forgives his sins, it is Wu Zheng who has the heart of a villain and spends the belly of a gentleman." ”

Zhang Huangyan got up at the right time and said softly: "The four of us get together for the same goal, as long as the original intention remains the same, each has its own temperament and practice. Today is a good day, and now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, you might as well drink and get drunk together. ”

In fact, Wu Zheng absolutely did not believe what Qian Sule said that he would not be left and right, and split the Lianghu Guard, and the Ming Dynasty's practice of suppressing military force and stationing supervision troops in the Ming Dynasty has a long history, which is by no means because Wu Zheng published the statement of the Ming Dynasty of the Han people when the four of them gathered.

Although this statement is like a rebellion when Zhu Yu is his father.

But now is different from the past, Shaoxing Mansion is not the emperor, but a king.

That is to say, no matter whether Wu Zheng is young or old, whether Wu Zheng is a loyal minister or not, supervision and restraint are necessary.

But this does not affect Wu Zheng's respect for Qian Sule.

If you have no desire, you are strong, at this point, Qian Sule can crush many people.

A person who can destroy his family and relieve his hardship and send his only son to the battlefield against foreign people, these two points alone are enough to make the world respect.

……。

To Wu Zheng's surprise.

This time, Zhu Yihai's hand was very large, and he forced Dong Yingdi, the secretary of the household department, to raise 3,000 taels of silver, and gave 1,000 taels to Wu Zheng, Wei Wenyuan, and Liao Zhongping.

One thousand taels, assigned to the soldiers under Wu Zheng, one person and one tael are almost there.

But this is not the point, the point is that Zhu Yihai is wantonly issuing official hats.

Let's just put it this way, after the reward the next day, among the more than 1,000 people under Wu Zheng's command, there are no longer too many big-headed soldiers.

The so-called money is not enough, and the official will make up for it.

This trick was used by Zhu Yihai perfectly.

Not to mention, the soldiers are very happy, big and small are all officials.

But Wu Zheng, Wei Wenyuan, and Liao Zhongping were not happy.

Wu Zheng, is he worried about how to manage it in the future?

Who will pay for the extra money every month?
