Chapter 64: The General at the Edge of the Town
"Pingban General Liu Dameng, promoted to the general of Zhengbei, deputy commander of the Zhenbei Army."
"Mei Zhisheng, the general of the town army, was promoted to the general of Zhengdong; Li Kui, the general of the escort army, was promoted to the general of Zhengnan. ”
Hearing this, Guo Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Among these four people, except for Liu Dameng, they all made great contributions in the battle to destroy Qi, and their qualifications in the army are enough. The original position of General Zhengnan was just a miscellaneous general, but looking at Zhao Qingxuan's posture, it was obvious that he wanted to set up a four-march general whose official position was above the miscellaneous general.
But since Li Kui has been promoted to the general of Zhengnan, what about himself?
When they were fighting Qi, Guo Yu was their commander, and if Zhao Qingxuan continued to let himself be a miscellaneous general, it would obviously not be suitable. But if you take a step further, only the position of the general of the four towns remains.
"Could it be that Zhao Qingxuan really wants to let himself be a general on the edge of the town?"
As soon as this ridiculous idea arose, Guo Yu shook his head.
It should be unlikely, although he won two battles with the Southern Expeditionary Army, but he is still young after all, and his qualifications are shallow, if he becomes a general in the town with military power in his hand, and is on an equal footing with King Shi Yi, I don't know how many people will be unconvinced.
Guo Yu was a little curious.
What kind of general will Zhao Qingxuan give himself?
"Partial general Lan Yun, promoted to general Xiaocai; partial general Zhao Jinghan, promoted to guerrilla general; Wang Chixiang, a partial general, was promoted to general Wuwei; partial general Wang Ningyuan, promoted to general Fukou; General Chen Jianzhao was promoted to General Shenwei..."
"Dutong Wang Chen, Liu Wei, Wang Yuwei, Wang Long...... Hou Jinyong, Long Tao, Li Ran, Wu Liao, Mei Shigan, Lu Xiuqian, and Er Yingzhang were promoted to partial generals. ”
The corners of Guo Yu's mouth unconsciously rose slightly.
Not only the dogs, but all the commanders in the Sancheng army have all risen one level, from commanders with almost no official positions to generals.
I wonder if they'll jump up with joy when they tell the calves when they go back to the camp.
"Guangsong General Zhao Qingquan was promoted to General Zhenxi."
"Guo Yu, the general of Zhengnan, was promoted to the general of Zhenbei."
Zhao Qingxuan's two words were like a thunderbolt, shaking everyone in the hall in place.
Such an important position as a general on the edge of the town, the king actually handed it over to two young people who were not more than the age of the crown?!
Zhao Qingquan is just that, after all, he has been in the Great Song Army for some years, and he has such a good reputation as the light of the Great Song Dynasty. And his father is the number one boss in the Great Song Dynasty military at the moment, even if Zhao Qingquan is still young, he can still suppress his soldiers. Let him serve as the general of Zhenxi, which is barely appropriate.
But this Zhenbei general...
Everyone turned their heads to look at Guo Yu, who was stunned.
How can this kid sit on the position of General Zhenbei?
You must know that General Zhenbei has always been taken over by the Liu family, who have guarded the north for generations among the four great families.
The boy of the Liu family died in the north.
The children of the Liu family who have scattered blood in the north to resist the barbarians for a hundred years do not know what is ordinary, and among them, there are several who died in the position of the general of Zhenbei. Because of this, the Song kings of the past dynasties acquiesced in the hereditary inheritance of the Zhenbei generals by the Liu family. Up to Liu Xiaochen, the generals of Zhenbei were all surnamed Liu.
But now, the king actually said that he would hand over this position to Guo Yu?
Even if Guo Yu led the Southern Expeditionary Army to win a few victories? Where is he worthy of being the general of Zhenbei at the head of these four towns.
Feeling the rather unkind gaze of everyone, Guo Yu's face couldn't help but smile bitterly.
, it's really a general on the edge of the town.
Previously, the landlubber put him on the shelf to the position of the general of the southern expedition to command the southern expedition of the Song army, and now he is being the general of the north of the town to block the barbarians...
Zhao Qingxuan also looks up to him too damnly.
Without waiting for Guo Yu's reaction, the hundred officials in the palace had already begun to refute.
The general with a wooden expression walked out of his own way, "The minister thinks it's not appropriate!" ”
The middle-aged civil official walked to the center, "The minister also thinks that it is not appropriate!" ”
The gray-haired veteran clenched his fists with both hands, "The minister also thinks it's inappropriate!" ”
The Kyushu soldier ghost who was not wearing a white robe raised his right hand, "That's right, it's not proper!" ”
……
Although most of the people in the hall expressed their opposition, Zhao Qingxuan's attitude was very tough. No matter how others persuade him, he is determined to let Guo Yu be the general of the north of the town.
Seeing that the ministers had a posture that would not end if he did not change his words, Zhao Qingxuan directly announced his retirement from the dynasty with a wave of his hand, and drove out all the officials who had removed Pang Yu and Guo Yu.
After waiting for the three of them to be left in the main hall, Zhao Qingxuan pouted and said, "Forget about others, brother-in-law, what are you doing with it?" Just now, I was giving you an official title. ”
Guo Yu spread his hands and said: "Everything else is good, this Zhenbei general is really not suitable." ”
"What's wrong with that?"
"The minister is too young, how can he be a general at the edge of the town."
"Light power can deserve it, why can't you. Besides, it's good that you don't pick up the Southern Expeditionary Army? ”
"The Southern Expeditionary Army is in a special situation, and there is really no one to go up." Guo Yu arched his hand and said, "If I remember correctly, General Zhao is five or six years older than Chen. ”
Pang Yu rolled his eyes, "When your stinky old man was worshiped as a general by the first king, he wasn't much older than you. ”
Guo Yu said angrily: "Since Pang Xiang said so, why don't you just let the king crown me as a general." ”
"Brother-in-law, you have a big appetite."
Zhao Qingxuan smiled, "But it's still early, you can wait." ”
"If the minister remembers correctly, that Liu Dameng is the grandson of General Liu."
Guo Yu was puzzled: "Your Majesty, why don't you let him be the general of Zhenbei." ”
"Boy, do you think this Zhenbei general can do it to anyone?"
Pang Yu interjected: "Old man Liu's grandson is mediocre in force, and he is not a general. If he is allowed to defend the northern border, how can he withstand the perverted invasion of the barbarians. And in order to deal with Li Hongtu in Qizhou, the Marquis of Liaoling also had to go to the northwest. Although the barbarians are still fighting themselves, this northern realm still needs someone who can take charge of himself. ”
"That's why Pang Gong chose the handsome and handsome General Ben, who is superior in force, uses soldiers like a god."
Guo Yu nodded suddenly in realization.
Regarding Guo Yu's words, Pang Yu just didn't hear them, "Liu Dameng is honest and honest, even if you kid robs him of the position of general of Zhenbei, he will not have the slightest complaint." And letting him be your deputy can also allow you to stabilize the hearts of the northern army. ”
"Originally, there were 100,000 troops in the north, but most of them have been transferred for the southern expedition and the attack on Qizhou, and when you pass, there should be 30,000 people left, all of which are at your disposal."
Pang Yu looked at Guo Yu, "As for the Zhenbei Army, half of them died under the Tianwei Pass, and the other half were also transferred. That's why the northern army needs you to reorganize, and it's for you to throw the new army into your camp. ”
Hearing this, Guo Yu was slightly stunned.
Reconstruction... Zhenbei Army?
According to the news from the north, the prince of northern Xinjiang was beaten by King Zuo Xian and screamed, and fled from all sides. The civil strife in northern Xinjiang may be coming to an end. ”
Pang Yu said: "When they are unified, they will definitely go south as soon as possible." Therefore, it is better to rebuild the Zhenbei Army quickly. There is no limit to the number of people, as you want. Anyway, when the barbarian calls, it's you who is responsible for blocking it, and you can do it yourself. ”
Zhao Qingxuan smiled and patted Guo Yu's shoulder, "The responsibility is heavy, brother-in-law, come on." ”
"In addition, the old man needs to ask you for someone."
"Who?"
"Chen Jianzhao."
Seeing Guo Yu frowning, Pang Yu said: "I think you also know that that Shenwu Hou Ma Zhiyuan has stationed a lot of soldiers and horses at the junction of the Jianghuai border. Although the new Qi is weak, most of the forces of the Great Song Dynasty are now used in the confrontation between Qizhou and Xiyong, and there are not too many troops and horses to deal with Ma Zhiyuan.
If it's just a soldier of the Qi State, he won't be afraid of coming, but Ma Zhiyuan, a powerhouse in the Grandmaster High Realm, is somewhat difficult to deal with, at least General Zhennan is not his opponent. At present, in the Great Song Dynasty, only Chen Jianzhao can compete with that martial madman.
Of course, the barbarians in the north are just as important. However, as far as the old man knows, the strongest person among the barbarians is only the peak of the Northern Xinjiang Sword King's entry into the realm, and it is enough to deal with it with you and General Lu. ”
Guo Yu was silent for a long time, and then said: "In this matter, I still need to ask the dog himself what he means..."
Before he could finish his sentence, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the main hall. Immediately afterwards, the three of them saw Tianlan General Mo Xiaoming walking in with an ugly face.
"Your Majesty, levy... Oh no, General Zhenbei, Pang Xiang. ”
After he finished saluting the three of them in turn, he turned his head to look at Pang Yu and said in a deep voice: "Prime Minister, my subordinates have sent someone to search the city, but they have not found the person the prime minister said, I think he should have escaped from Tianlan..."
Pang Yu waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "It's okay, just run." ”
Zhao Qingxuan asked in surprise: "But Pang Gong, your old man's wife eloped with other old men because he couldn't stand your shocking appearance?" ”
"Fart, where did the old man come from."
"Who's running away then?"
"It's just a mouse."
Pang Yu sneered: "It's still a rat that is about to die." ”
