Chapter 53 The New Officials Take Office

When Li Shouyi and Liu Fan sat down in the hall, the brigade commanders also sat in two rows.

Li Shouyi turned his head and whispered to Liu Fan, "Actually, you also know that in the past few years, there have been continuous wars in the northwest, and there have been serious vacancies in the lieutenant generals and colonels, and only after the end of the second year of the battle, more than half of the generals and colonels at the brigade and battalion levels in the Shence Army have suffered casualties, and the Jincheng Army and the Ganzhou Army have suffered even more casualties in some brigades. ”

"Also, you know, the imperial court stipulates that the term of office of the deputy brigade commander and above the general of the forbidden army is five years, and when the deadline is reached, it must be replaced no matter what the situation is, and the brigade commander level must be adjusted in different armies. That's it, I still have to come from the Jincheng Army in the name of the camp. ”

Saying this, I couldn't help but laugh.

"This year's great victory in the northwest, the imperial court for the promotion and appointment of the generals of the various armies in the northwest camp is also large, as long as the list recommended by the camp is reported, there is basically no disapproval, so I obtained the consent of the camp, and also promoted a group of generals from the level of the Shence military camp, and all the vacancies of the four brigades were filled at once."

"As for the deputy marshal of Brigade A and the commander of Brigade B, I really can't find any good candidates, so these two problems are left to you."

Liu Fan understands that this is the cleverness of Li Shouyi as a superior, in this way, coupled with the fact that the newly formed Geng Brigade is headed by Uncle Su and Dong Zi as the chief and deputy brigade commanders, it means that the personnel establishment of the three brigades is all your Liu Fan's people, and this kind of concession will definitely win the favor of others at once, and it will also be able to make others do things for themselves and relieve their own worries.

After the two whispered for half a pillar of incense, Li Shouyi turned his head and said to the brigade commanders: "There is nothing more to this meeting today, just to announce the appointment of Sima Du Lieutenant of the Shence Army, it has been half a month since the implementation battalion made this decision, it is estimated that you are no stranger to General Liu Fan who served as Sima Du Lieutenant of the Shence Army, some people may know more about General Liu's past than me, and I won't be too verbose here." ”

"But there is one thing you have to remember, in the future, I am destined to stay in the army less because of the relationship between the camp, and most of the affairs of the Shence Army may have to be decided by General Liu, if anyone does anything wrong and does not obey General Liu's military orders, it is equivalent to having trouble with me Li Shouyi, then you will wait for the whip and big blade of the punishment team."

After saying these few words, Li Shouyi paused slightly, so that everyone could understand the meaning of his words, and then continued: "You may have heard that in the next few months, the army's priority is to exterminate the large and small bandits in the northwest region, and the task of the Shence Army is the largest bandit in the northwest, Qiu Mazi, this is the camp's trust in my Shence army, and it is also the highest reward for all of us." Another important thing is to try to develop new methods of military training in the various forbidden armies. ”

Speaking of this, Li Shouyi glanced at Liu Fan and continued, "And these two major events clearly require that Sima Duwei be fully responsible, I think everyone can also weigh the importance from the arrangement of these things, don't do anything that is contrary to the yang and the yin, and the appearance is inconsistent, and the final shame must be yourself." ”

After beating the brigade commanders, Li Shouyi turned his head and whispered to Liu Fan, "Today you officially take office, you can also say a few words." ”

Liu Fan nodded slightly to Li Shouyi, and whispered to the brigade commanders: "Just now Li Sima has made some things very clear, let me emphasize again, I think you must be the same as me to eat food and become a soldier, nothing more than to win a lifetime of fame and fortune, since the camp handed over to us the largest bandit in the northwest, Qiu Mazi, it is to give us the greatest opportunity for meritorious service, and now the opportunity is in front of us, I hope that everyone here will work together with me, and don't let the opportunity flow in vain." As for the training of troops, I don't think I'm too anxious, so let's wait until I try to implement it in the Shenwu Army A Brigade for a while! ”

After speaking, he turned his head to Li Shouyi and said, "Deputy Chief, my words are finished." ”

Li Shouyi originally thought that Liu Fan would give a lecture for the first time after taking office, and he must have been prepared, and he was ready to listen to Liu Fan's tirade patiently, but he didn't expect Liu Fan to gently bring this solemn moment with just a few words, and he couldn't react at once, and when he heard Liu Fan speak to himself, he muttered for a while before saying: "Okay, okay, then that's it, I'll go to the camp to deal with some urgent matters first, and Liu Duwei and the brigade commanders can discuss how to solve the matter of Qiu Mazi first." ”

Liu Fan immediately said to Li Shouyi: "Deputy Chief, there is still a little matter I would like to ask you for help, I want to look through all the archives related to Qiu Mazi in recent years left by the prefect's yamen and the camp, can I?" ”

"What's so difficult about this, I'll send someone to bring you something when I turn around. In addition, the house you want has been bought, and the deed is in Xiaomin's hands, so you can just ask her to get it. ”

After Li Shouyi left, the brigade commanders were still sitting in danger waiting for Liu Fan to make further arrangements, but Liu Fan simply said to the brigade commanders: "Everyone disperse, I will send someone to inform you immediately if there is anything." ”

Then he walked over and grabbed Ma Youlai's arm and said, "Brother Ma, at this time, I have to rush to the big school field outside the city, where do you live?" I'll go to you in the evening. ”

After asking Ma Youlai's residence, Liu Fan immediately said goodbye to the brigade commanders, and took Ma Qiang and Hai Xiancun, who had already rushed back, out to the camp campus.

The five forbidden armies of the northwest camp have a small school field for drills in their own stations, and a larger school field is set up in the northwest of the city outside the city, which is mainly used for the forbidden army exercises at the end of the year and the beginning of the year and some large-scale military activities, and occasionally it is also lent to Liangzhou Mansion and some civil associations, in addition, it is basically vacant in peacetime, Liu Fan and Li Min and others discussed it and reported to the camp for approval, and the training place was set up here instead of the small school field of the Shenwu Army. At one time, two or three brigades of people can train in formation at the same time, and it will not affect the usual training of other units of the Shenwu Army.

When the three of them arrived at the big school, Li Min and Uncle Chen were already waiting, Liu Fan raised his hand and saluted the two, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I met with the brigade commanders in the Shence Army, and after a little delay, everyone is here." ”

Uncle Chen gestured back with his eyes and said, "Boy, so many people are waiting in line, don't you see it?" ”

Liu Fan said with some embarrassment: "I saw it, I saw it." Ay! General Li, where did you find so many young and beautiful girls? ”

Li Min glanced at him and said, "These are my female guards, what a mess." Also, can you call me Xiao Min directly in the future, one day General Li, one day and another Li Brigade Marshal, it sounds awkward. ”

"Oh oh, got it, that...... Then, Xiao Min, Uncle Chen, let's start, but Xiao Min, it's best to wear a mask for each of these young and beautiful girls, otherwise in a few days, their skin color will be the same as mine! ”

In the next few days, several brigade commanders of the Shence Army came to the small courtyard of the military headquarters every morning to report for duty, but they did not even see Captain Sima in front of him for several days, let alone make a comprehensive plan to suppress bandits.

Listening to the military Chinese book on duty in the courtyard, Captain Liu Du has been on business in the large school outside the city for the past two days, and he has met several times early in the morning, and everyone can't help but slander in their hearts: "It's really hairless on the mouth, and the work is not firm, can't you even distinguish between priorities and priorities?" ”

They all looked at Ma Youlai and said: "General Ma and Liu Duwei have a comradeship, besides, Liu Duwei said that he was going to find you to catch up with the old days, and it is up to you to investigate when the bandit suppression will start." ”

Ma Youlai said: "Alas, after this stinky boy drank together that night, I didn't see him again, since he was in the big school field outside the city, let's go over to meet him together, and ask him what he thinks in person." ”
