Tang Wang certainly disliked that those soldiers who had just walked out of the new training department could not keep up with the training rhythm of the large army, and they were obviously not as useful as veterans. But he can't deny that it is much easier to make finished products with semi-finished products than to make finished products with materials.

Noticing the change in his expression below, Ye Fu smiled again and said, "This third point is also the most important point. What is the purpose of the clear establishment and fixed number of troops in our dangerous mountain army? It's not for me Ye Fu to save those melons and jujubes! Rather, it is for the purpose of paying soldiers, or distributing weapons and uniforms, and there is a definite amount. While not wasting it, it also ensures that every soldier gets his or her fair share. You recruit troops privately, you recruit less, not enough, recruit more, I don't believe you have so many available people, you can't pull out points every day, right? Therefore, there is a consideration for not allowing you to recruit soldiers without permission. Today, I can be regarded as making my words clear, whether you understand it or not, I still say the same thing, the dangerous mountain army is my Ye Fu as a general for one day, and I have to use my rules one day, and I can't violate them. In the future, no one is allowed to mess around with me on this issue! ”

Ye Fu's last sentence set the tone for this matter.

Although there are still people who are dissatisfied with his tough attitude, because of his prestige, no one dares to be this rafter.

Of course, Ye Fu understands very well that taming horses, especially taming horses, must not blindly wave a whip. The whip is certainly a powerful tool, but the carrot is also essential.

After hitting a stick, he immediately threw a red date out.

He said: "By the way, a few days ago, I purchased a batch of new muskets and artillery from Portugal. Although it is said that the thing has not yet arrived, this thing is sure that it will be there after all. Besides, the ordnance factory is now self-contained, and the quantity and quality of self-made muskets and artillery are quite acceptable. That is, next, a large number of ordnance will be replenished into the troops. ”

At this point, someone was already staring at him with shining eyes.

Ye Fu only pretended not to see it, and said to himself: "Before, because of the lack of armament, and also because the dangerous mountain army had just started, it was necessary to work on the foundation, so I limited the strength of your subordinates. Now, though, it's time to be a little more extravagant. On the basis of the original establishment, I intend to add a town level above the brigade level. This is the first time I have said this clearly, and you are also the first to hear this conclusive news in the Dangerous Mountain Army. But as for the subsequent expansion, whether you can make progress and go further, it depends on your own ability! ”

After these words, everyone couldn't help but get excited.

Expand! After the war, this is a good opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune!

How the people below will fight openly and secretly for the expansion position that is still illusory, it is not something that Ye Fu should worry about.

Solved the problem that the new training office had not been taken seriously below, and it could be regarded as a knock on the preparation to wait for him to loosen his mouth a little and repair the plank road and secretly Chen Cang, past the subordinates of the new training department who recruited troops on their own, Ye Fu returned to the courtyard prepared for him by Tang Wang, and when he was far away, he saw that Geng Zhongming was already waiting for him in the courtyard.

When I saw him, I immediately knelt down and saluted, "Humble to your lordship." ”

"Excuse me! Excuse me! Ye Fu waved his hand, signaled him to get up and speak, with a smile on his face, took the handkerchief handed over by Ma Denglong, wiped his face, found a random place to sit down, and said to Geng Zhongming: "Yuntai, you are a good soldier!" I heard Tang Wang praise you, saying that in this battle, your failure to close the team at night is indispensable! ”

Tang Wangcai didn't mention Geng Zhongming's name!

He even wished that Ye Fu wouldn't think of such a person!

How smart is Geng Zhongming? I already knew this, so naturally I wouldn't say anything good about Tang Wang stupidly. He only bowed down and said: "After all, the adults are well-trained, and the humble position is just following the outline of the adults, and they have followed the trend step by step, and have achieved some small victories." ”

"Well, you're really good at talking." Ye Fu casually handed the handkerchief back to Ma Denglong, pointed to the seat next to him and said, "Come, sit, sit down." Denglong, pour a cup of tea for Lord Geng! ”

Geng Zhongming sat down tremblingly, watched Ma Denglong bring the tea, and hurriedly got up to pick it up, thanking him.

When he sat down again, Ye Fucai asked him, "How is it?" Have you encountered any difficulties lately? ”

Geng Zhongming pondered Ye Fu's question in his heart, and replied cautiously: "If you go back to the adult, you will already be doing very well if you are under the command of the adult. With a full salary, a warm military uniform, and an arsenal in hand, when he was a bandit before, he really didn't even dare to think about it! Moreover, the soldiers are well trained, and many things can be carried out in squads, and the results are quite good. There is nothing to worry about for the time being. ”

"You'll report good news rather than bad news." Ye Fu sneered, "Don't hide it from me!" I know that you are outside the army, helping a commander like Tang Wang, and others have to guard against you. I'm afraid that you have robbed them of the credit that originally belonged to them, and even more afraid that the information you get is inaccurate. You have a little bit of a black history of defection, and after all, life won't be too easy. Am I right? ”

Geng Zhongming didn't say yes, nor did he say no, he just smiled and said: "My lord, it is your hope that you will not accept your humble duties at night." The lowly position only needs to do the things within the division well, and as for the side, there should be no need to think too much. ”

"Okay, you!" Ye Fu shook his head, "You don't want to say a word about the bad words of others." That's it! Oh, by the way, you just said that it was my hope that you would be able to do it all night? What about yourself? If you had to choose for yourself, what would you want to do? ”

This is another proposition, Geng Zhongming felt that cold sweat was dripping down his spine, and he smiled reluctantly: "My lord, since the day I surrendered to you, I have no hope or dishope, everything is arranged by the adult, and I will never dare to be negligent and slack off." ”

"I'm asking you now!" Ye Fu refused to let him go like this, but stared at his eyes, and asked him more directly, "Tell me, if I want you to be a bandit now, what do you think?" ”

Geng Zhongming looked at Ye Fu in a daze with his mouth half open, and for a long time, he didn't know how to answer Ye Fu's question.

Say yes, then it is estimated that it will be judged as a bandit.

Say you don't want to, I just said that everything is arranged by Ye Fu, and at this time, I retorted, obviously beating my mouth.

Geng Zhongming hesitated again and again, but he had to choose the first path, "Obey the orders of the lord." ”
