Chapter 210: Approachable?

This British king is so approachable that the officers of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion almost can't believe that this is a prince and prince. Those ordinary sergeants eat a big pot of rice, but all officials of a certain grade are unwilling to eat it. The king of England ate it very sweetly, and he couldn't see half of it.

The most important thing is that not only he himself leads by example, but even the guards around him have strictly followed the military orders since they entered the Xiaocai camp. There is no one who dares to rely on the power of the palace to be arrogant. At the end is the station is like a pine, the line is like the wind, and the style is not inferior to the soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion.

The soldiers of the Xiaocai Battalion went out to drill every day, and they also went out to exercise. What the soldiers of the cavalry battalion eat every day, they will also eat. His Royal Highness the King of England is so understanding, the generals of the cavalry battalion, who were originally a little worried about the arrival of the King of England, finally let go of the stone in their hearts.

Not to mention that the British king has never interfered in military affairs, and even some things that the commander took the initiative to ask for instructions were also regarded by him as not in his position and not seeking political affairs. The court ordered him to sit in the cavalry camp, but he was only ready to be sent away for reasons. The British king's great resignation made the commander of the capital completely relieved.

Originally, this commander was still worried that this young and vigorous prince would reach out everywhere after arriving at the Xiao Cavalry Camp. It doesn't matter if he, the chief official, can't manage it, and it's not good. Anyway, he is the prince of the dynasty, and he is just a commander of the three grades, and this level is too far behind.

And from the day the holy decree arrived, in fact, the British king already had the right to take over the horse camp as the master. Compared to his own commander, this British king is inferior. Only others have the right to manage themselves, and they have no right to manage others. Not to mention the soldiers of the whole battalion, even he, the commander, has to listen to others.

That being said, it's not that easy to actually do. These princes began to enjoy glory and wealth from the grass. Until the domain, I am afraid that he had never even been out of the capital, let alone led troops. The soldiers in the barracks are different from the maids, mothers-in-law, housekeepers, and eunuchs they saw in the mansion in the past.

If His Royal Highness the King of England, who has never led soldiers, doesn't know how to pretend to know how to meddle in random commands everywhere, how can he bring this cavalry battalion himself? But no matter what, the commander of the capital is also worried that after the British king arrived at the camp, he was doing something bad.

You must know that there are not only sergeants in the cavalry camp, but also a large number of dependents. If this old man is lonely at night, relying on his power, and doing something to bully the weak and force the **, it will provoke a mutiny. If something like this happens, do you want your head to do it?

It has only been a few years since he was transferred back to the cavalry battalion from the border army, and he doesn't know much about this British king. But among the princes, there was King Teng first, and then King Yong, which has always been famous, and even in the entire capital, it is notorious. I heard that King Teng likes to find other people's wives. Especially the dependents of those low-level officials, as long as they are eyed by him, they will do everything they can to get their hands on them.

And the Yongwang looking for a woman has always been cold. Widows and prostitutes have always been different. As long as you look at it, you will definitely not be stingy. Although this British king does not know very well, looking at the behavior of those princes, the commander of this capital was very worried, and this British king is similar to them.

Huang Qiong's current style made the heart that had been hanging in the capital commander completely let go. Although I don't know, what intentions are hidden in this British king's behavior. But for now, that's a good thing, isn't it? At least nothing out of control was done.

In fact, for the imperial court at this time, a prince was sent to the cavalry camp to sit in battle. From this commander to the generals of the cavalry battalion, they are all unwelcome in their hearts. In addition to Huang Qiong, in their eyes, he is just a yellow-haired boy who has never even killed a chicken, and there are also worries about these princes who are known for their absurdity in this dynasty.

As for why the imperial court sent the prince into the Xiaocai camp, although the other generals did not know, they could be the commander of the capital. As early as the day before, I learned about it from the letter sent by the front division of the temple. As a military attache of the imperial court, especially the Xiaocai Battalion, one of the four major battalions in the capital, he had never participated in the battle between the princes before.

Because he knows what the emperor's bottom line is. He didn't want to touch the emperor's bottom line, and he didn't have any interest in the battles between these princes. Even in his heart, it is not an ordinary antipathy to these princes who put the lives of the people in order to fight for power.

But since the emperor has made up his mind, this time a prince will sit in the Xiaocai camp and deal with the counterinsurgency in Zhengzhou, what can he, a courtier, do? Although according to the usual practice, the Zhengzhou imperial court will choose another general. But these soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, after all, have been in charge for several years. The life and death of these brothers made him really worried.

As an official, he spent most of his time in the border army, and he knew too well the impact of a layman commanding an insider's impact on the success or failure of a war. Fortunately, after entering the camp, the British king was only interested in the junior military attaché and ordinary sergeants, and did not interfere in the camp affairs at all, and even lacked interest at all.

While he breathed a sigh of relief, he only hoped that the British king would not command indiscriminately on the battlefield in the future, and not let the blood of the soldiers under his command be shed in vain. He hoped that the military attache selected by the imperial court when sending troops could restrain the British king. Let this British king continue to be his shopkeeper, and wait for him to return to Beijing to continue to be his prince.

It's just that these military attachés who are rectum know that although this prince is young, he has never done those useless deeds. Although he mingled with those young sergeants of the cavalry battalion, Huang Qiong himself was very willing. But Huang Qiong really has his own purpose in doing this.

Huang Qiong didn't want to listen to the evaluation of the generals of the Xiaocai Battalion by those bureaucrats in the Ministry of War. In Huang Qiong's opinion, half of the ten sentences are true, and it would be good to be able to show the true ability of these military attachés. The devil knows if any of these officers have relied on their family power to get into this position.

There is a way that thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find, and he led the army to Zhengzhou this time, and he did not have a reliable general to lead the army. Although she has read a few military books, Huang Qiong believes that it is better to believe in books than to have no books. If you read a few military books casually, you can lead the army to fight, then this Great Qi Dynasty is full of famous generals.

According to the so-called ancestral custom, every expedition has always been the four battalions of troops, and the Privy Council also sends military attachés to command. After the emperor set up the front division of the palace, it was changed to the commander of the army selected by the front division of the palace. Although this point ensures that the generals do not specialize in the army, it prevents the situation that in the former Tang Dynasty, the military generals supported the troops and respected themselves.

But there is also a problem in front of Huang Qiong. One is that there are many generals in front of the palace who can fight habitually, but their qualifications are very old. It doesn't matter if these veterans can be used for themselves or not. Huang Qiong has never had this thought, he doesn't want to mess with these old foxes.

And the old man can tolerate you to win over civil officials, but if you want to use the mind of a military officer, you will really commit the taboo of the old man. But if you don't listen to yourself on the battlefield, you will miss a big thing. These people can indeed fight, but they may not buy their own account as a yellow-mouthed boy.

Therefore, Huang Qiong still plans to see if he can directly select the people who lead the troops from among the generals of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion. Of course, Huang Qiong still has to think about the way to persuade the old man to break the convention, but the first choice has to be someone else, right? As for the abilities of the generals, from whose mouths do they know, and can they know it clearly from the mouths of these big-headed soldiers?

You must know that according to the Great Qi military system, the generals of the cavalry battalion are also regularly rotated with the generals of the border army. The military attachés of the entire cavalry battalion, even ordinary sergeants, are all people who have experienced fighting on the battlefield. From the momentum emanating from these people, it can be seen that these soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion are definitely not those generals of the Eighth Army of the Royal Forest who have seen blood, and they can be compared.

Compared with those meritorious generals in the front division of the palace, these military attachés are not of very high rank, and the idea of making meritorious contributions in their hearts is even stronger. They don't have too many backers behind them, and it's easier to command. At least it won't happen on the battlefield and not buy your own account.

This battle, with the combat effectiveness of the cavalry battalion, is not a big problem militarily. The difficulty lies in the aftermath, which is the key issue. And Zhengzhou has been sleepy and tired for a long time, and after experiencing the floods in the past few years, as well as King Jing's rampant conquest in recent years, he can't withstand a military disaster.

As the saying goes, officials are like shaving, bandits are like combing, and soldiers are like shaving. For the common people, passing through the army is even more harmful than being sacked by bandits. If the entire Xiaoqi battalion can't do it like that, it will be extremely critical to Zhengzhou's aftermath. If the generals who lead the troops blindly maintain the superiority, kill extravagantly, or even plunder the people's property and women, it is very likely that the entire aftermath will fall short.

Therefore, Huang Qiongcai believes that the selection from these military attaches in the Xiaocai Battalion may be more suitable for this counterinsurgency operation than those generals of the palace front division. Presumably, these generals who have been transferred back from the border army and should not have been promoted in a few years are definitely much easier to command than those veterans.

Therefore, in order to find out the ability of the generals of the cavalry battalion in the shortest possible time, Huang Qiong made a lot of determination. Even if it is deliberately put on a show, he will not hesitate to share weal and woe with the officers and soldiers. In just two days, the ability and character of the military attachés of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion were brought out from the mouths of the junior military attaches and the mouths of ordinary sergeants.

Of course, he was not the only one who helped Huang Qiong do this. There are also Fan Jian and Liu Hu, who have just arrived at the barracks and are very curious about the life in the barracks, and even those around him. It can be said that in addition to the old-fashioned one, Su Changshi, who still held him, Jinshi and the first shelf in the Xiaoqi camp.

Almost all the people around Huang Qiong have become his most powerful helpers. Especially Fan Jian, who was full of flowers and heart, and disappeared in the past after entering the barracks, it was not too easy to talk from those simple sergeants of the cavalry battalion. This guy has a devilish eye in his belly, and his emotional intelligence is definitely high enough, and he got into a fight with the junior military attache of the Xiaocai Battalion in a short period of time.

It can almost be said that it is easy to help Huang Qiong figure out what she wants to know. These iron-blooded men who fought on the battlefield, how could the two of them have so many ghost eyes? When he was set to speak, he still regarded Fan Jian as a brother. Otherwise, people who read books are generally wilted.

These two seem to be harmless to humans and animals, not to mention, but also put on an approachable posture. Without knowing it, he touched the bottom of the generals of the entire Xiao Cavalry Battalion. That one was killed in the border army, and that one was Enmeng, a child of the family. That person is greedy, that one is ambitious and talented, and that one has real skills, and he has found it clearly.

At this time, Huang Qiong knew that this guy who almost starved to death on the side of the road before being picked up by Chen Yao was actually from the first family in martial arts. The family is also a martial artist and a businessman, and several generations have worked hard to run it, although it is not as rich as the Guilin County Palace, but it is also one of the richest people in the territory.
