Chapter 47 Zhang Mengwu
In fact, Ma Liang entrusted Ma Jian to Guan Ping, which was a bit abrupt.
We're new friends, aren't we? Is this entrusted?
Just as Tai Shici said to Liu Bei when he was helping Kong Rong and asking Liu Bei for help, "I and Kong Beihai are not flesh and blood, and they are not the township party." ”
Even if it is to be entrusted, it will not be Guan Ping's turn. But Ma Liang is very hearty and atmospheric, and because Guan Ping is a general, his family background is innocent, and the Ma family is devoted to Liu Bei.
And Guan Ping feels like a very down-to-earth person to Ma Liang.
The training was very steady.
That's why I was entrusted with this time. And Ma Liang, Ma Tan's brothers have very different ideas, Ma Liang wants his younger brother to sharpen his life here in Guanping for a year or two, Ma Jian is going to learn it, and then in one or two years, he will lead five or six hundred soldiers, and he can become a general at the age of twenty or thirty, and the generals have done it, so of course the feudal marquis is not a problem, and he is ambitious.
But soon Ma Jian realized that his disaster was coming.
Although Guan Ping hesitated, he still took Ma Jian in very happily. This made Ma Liang exhale, feeling that a big stone had fallen in his heart, and he was really worried that Ma Jian would become a person who talked as much as Zhao Kuo.
Brother love, fist heart.
After negotiating the matter, Ma Liang took his leave. He and Ma Jian came, just on the orders of his father to make friends with Guan Ping, and now that the task is completed, he also entrusted Ma Jian to Guan Ping by the way, and successfully completed the task, so naturally he should go back.
By the way, Ma Liang didn't forget before leaving, let Guan Ping, a new friend, have time to go to Yicheng to play, and he will definitely sweep the couch to greet him.
Guan Ping agreed to this and sent Ma Liang to the gate of the camp. Ma Liang, Ma Jian brought five horsemen this time, and Ma Liang planned to leave the two of them behind and take care of Ma Yan.
It's not that he suspects that Guan Ping will abuse Ma Tan, but he just left the two of them to do laundry and fold quilts for Ma Tan. Guan Ping asked Ma Liang to take all the riders away.
Since Guan Ping has accepted Ma Yan, he must train this person to become an iron-clad soldier. Laundry, drilling, starting from the basics, doing everything yourself.
You have to squeeze Ma Jian dry, and you have to think about those bombastic things when Ma Jian is tired and has no time.
Guan Ping took Ma Jian back to the tent, thought about it, and sent someone to find Zhou Xiong. Zhou Xiong had just come back from running with his soldiers, and his body was stinking with sweat.
Ma Jian frowned slightly, resisting the urge to cover his nose.
Guan Ping glanced at Ma Yan.
Can't help the smell of sweat?
"What do you command?" After Zhou Xiong came in, he immediately saluted Guan Xiang, his voice was full of anger, his eyes were bright, but his expression was a little flattering.
Stupid, straightforward, and flattering.
Why did Zhou Cang give birth to such a stupid thing? Guan Ping sighed, but Zhou Xiong is also a good person, that is, let him do whatever he wants, and he will not be discounted.
This is the opposite of Ma Tan, who will talk rhetorically and even disobey orders. In the battle of Jieting, Zhuge Liang was indeed worried about Ma Tan, and he explained that Ma Tan was camping on the road, or guarding the old city of Jieting, but Ma Jian just didn't listen, and he went up the mountain to Sheshui, and was given dumplings by Zhang He, and the calves were defeated.
First, Ma Jian has a lot of ideas, intelligence and flexibility, and secondly, it is also because he does not obey orders. If Ma Tan can obey the order, suppress the heart that is about to move.
But it won't end up like that.
To transform, start with obedience.
"This is Ma Tan, a good family in Yicheng. I have incorporated him into your army, and you are responsible for training him. Guan Ping pointed to Ma Yandao.
"No." Zhou Xiong looked at Ma Jian first, and then agreed. Although this little white face doesn't look easy to carry, since it is the meaning of the military lord, he can only go all out.
Ma Tan was taken aback, but he said that he would listen to it under the tent. Be a military officer, or treat him like a guest, this is the treatment that Ma Jian thinks he has.
This was like a soldier's exercise, which was completely unexpected by Ma Yan.
"General Guan." Ma Jian arched his hand and wanted to speak, but Guan Ping glanced at Ma Jian coldly and said, "Since your brother entrusted you to me, then you are under my command." Called the military waiter. ”
Ma Yan paused for a moment, he didn't expect Guan Ping, who was so good at talking just now, to change his face so quickly, he felt a little bad, but still said: "Lord Junhou, I." ”
Ma Yan's words didn't speak, Guan Ping said: "Move like the wind, stop like a mountain, and order and prohibit." My word is a command, and your obedience is. If you can't obey, I'll send someone to catch up with your brother Maleonn and send you back. ”
This is the second time Ma Jian has been interrupted by Guan Ping, which makes Ma Jian very unhappy and incomprehensible. This person used to let him speak freely, which made him feel like a spring breeze, and his face changed too quickly.
Women don't change their minds so quickly, do they?
Ma Jian already felt that it was very bad, but he really asked Guan Ping to send him back to see Ma Liang, but Ma Jian was also unwilling, and Ma Jian also had Ma Yan's pride.
If I go back in such an embarrassment, what will my brother think of me?
In particular, I was driven back without obeying the orders of the superiors.
"No."
Ma Yan's face showed an unhappy look, and he made a dull promise. Then he was taken away by Zhou Xiong.
"You'll thank me later." After Ma Jian left, Guan Ping no longer had a cold face just now, and showed a smile.
I feel that talent cultivation is still good.
If you can smooth out a big pit like Ma Tan, it's already very good. If you can smooth out a big pit like Ma Tan at the same time, and then build it into a mountain, Optimus Prime, it will be more fulfilling.
Oh hehe.
It's a little Kaisen.
Making Shu Han bigger and stronger has become Guan Ping's obsession. Guan Ping didn't even notice it himself, he was a little addicted. I wanted to live the life of the second ancestor, Yanei, cockfighting and lackey, hugging left and right, fragrant car beauty, bullying men and women, but this is not the case at all now.
It can be said that it broke my heart.
And Ma Jian soon knew what it meant to be a military order, like a mountain, and it was iron-clad. Because he had dinner with Guan Ping and Ma Liang in the morning, he didn't catch up with the run, but he caught up with the queue.
Ma Tan was first incorporated into a team of eleven people, and this team became twelve people. It doesn't matter, this kind of thing is also very flexible.
There are two shield soldiers in the front, one pikeman on the left and one pikemen on the left and right, four pikemen in the middle, two archers in the back, and the chief in the center.
Shi Chang is a free man.
One more person can put the extra people on the captain's side to protect, or you can add an extra archer.
Very flexible.
All in all, Zhou Xiong said that Ma Jian was organized in a team and became a big soldier.
It's also easy to line up, compared to those stupid commoners, Ma Tan naturally knows what is left and right, but it is extremely difficult to do it well.
Stand straight, turn right, turn left, turn back, take a break, and stand upright. This is not difficult for Ma Tan, Ma Jian quickly found his senses, and followed everyone around, without any disobedience.
But the problem is that one practice is an hour.
After that, Ma Jian was indeed organized into a pikeman, standing beside the chief, responsible for protecting the chief.
Ma Tan is slender and not thin, but he can't stand it after tossing. At the end of the day, I almost didn't vomit and diarrhea, and it was impossible to think about any military strategies or study any tactics, so I fell asleep on the bed.
I don't care if the surrounding area is stinky, because one of the soldiers has athlete's foot. I couldn't smell the stench anymore, so I fell asleep.
Time passed slowly, relying on Mi's wine as a gold mine, Liu Bei began to draw blood from Jingzhou, grain, slave population, gold, and Xinye began to quickly become powerful.
The population of Xinye City is already more than 10,000, and Xinye City is small, so it is very crowded, and it is gradually overwhelmed.
There are already 20,000 or 30,000 people outside the city.
Liu Bei's helpers played a role, and after purchasing slaves and maids, these helpers were like embellishments, measuring the land, and setting up a li with 100 households as the standard.
At the peak of Xinye, the population was as many as two or three hundred thousand, divided into four townships. One hundred households and one mile, ten miles and one pavilion, ten pavilions and one township.
Prior to this, Xinye only had a pitiful Sixiang establishment and four pavilion chiefs. Under the expansion of the population, Shinno began to set up more pavilion chiefs and lichangs.
The people inside the city can prosper in all walks of life, and the people outside the city can provide tax revenue. Liu Bei set a tax and collected 30% of the tax when the government distributed seeds, ploughing cattle, and farm tools.
Compared with Cao Cao's collection of sixty percent of the tax, it is already very benevolent. But compared with Jingzhou's loose and low taxes, it is naturally high.
However, these people were slaves and maids bought by Liu Bei, not only restored to the status of commoners, but also gave wasteland reclamation, but it still seemed that Liu Bei was benevolent and righteous.
With a total population of thirty or forty thousand, and enough food and money, Liu Bei began to move.
Liu Bei's previous 3,000 soldiers and horses were brought from Runan, and after coming to Xinye, except for Guan Ping's time, he did not draw strong men, so these 30,000 or 40,000 people, there are many strong men among the people.
Liu Bei plans to use the algorithm of one out of ten to draw three thousand strong men to expand his combat power.
For warlords, this is a matter of course.
For someone like Liu Bei, who is ambitious and a small warlord in Xinye, it is even more natural.
Early in the morning of this day, Liu Bei summoned his subordinates to the martial arts, and this time he summoned Jian Yong, Mi Zhu and three ministers, plus Chen Zhi, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, four generals, a total of six people.
The Big Seven were formed.
Liu Bei was still wearing a red robe, beaming with joy. Recently, he has been liking wearing clothes of this color, and he feels that after wearing clothes of this color, Shinno's development is generally smooth.
After Liu Bei recruited his subordinate martial arts, he did not immediately get to the point. Instead, he glanced at Zhang Fei with a smile and quipped: "Yide, I heard that you have quit drinking recently, as the saying goes, it is too late, you should drink it or drink it." Moderation is enough. ”
Since Guan Ping a year ago, Zhang Bao's two stinky boys got fried pork slices with bamboo shoots, Zhang Fei stopped drinking and really quit.
Whether it's morning, noon, afternoon, or supper, all quit it.
Zhang Fei was much better to the soldiers under his command, and he was often kind and pleasant, which made the soldiers flattered. This matter spread all over Xinye for a while.
Zhang Fei certainly lost face, Guan Ping, and Zhang Bao were certainly beaten with fried pork slices with bamboo shoots, but for the entire Xinye Group, it was a great thing.
Zhang Laosan didn't drink and make trouble, and Liu Bei was a few taels lighter and comfortable.
Not to mention Liu Bei, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, and Chen Zhi are also much more relaxed, after all, if Zhang Fei is drunk, they will have to suppress Zhang Fei.
It's also easy to get a black punch! The last time Zhao Yun was beaten.
After listening to Liu Bei's laughter, the civil and military people all let out a good-natured laugh, even the cold-faced Guan Yu also touched his beard and showed a little smile.
Guan Ping did this, although he was beaten with fried pork slices with bamboo shoots, but it was Zhang Fei who beat it, not Guan Yu, and Guan Yu very much agreed with this matter.
"Good big brother, don't bury me with this matter anymore, okay." Zhang Fei's black face was slightly red, and he said with a red face as if he was coquettish.
Cute things are still cute things, and the blood of cuteness.
"Hahahaha." Liu Bei burst into laughter.
After this episode, Liu Bei got to the point, touched his beard, and said with a smile: "At present, Xinye has enough mouth, enough food, and enough gold and silver supplies. I want to take advantage of the opportunity to expand the army, what do you think? ”
"I agree." Zhang Mengwu was a demon again, raised his right hand high and said loudly. Liu Bei glared at Zhang Mengwu, who smiled brightly and put down his right hand, but turned his head to look around, the thief was a thief.
Sure enough, the people around him also agreed. Zhang Mengwule blossomed, and she smiled a little silly.
This time it is time for everyone to work together to expand the army.
Fan Cheng, who beat his mother, occupied Jingzhou for the eldest brother to sit on.
Seeing that both the civil and military forces agreed, Liu Bei was also relieved. said: "First recruit more than 3,000 people, and expand the soldiers and horses of Shuzhi, Yunchang, and Yide to 2,000 each, making up 6,000 people. ”
Speaking of this, Liu Bei said to Jian Yong again: "Xianhe, you are also more serious." Help with recruitment and other related chores, and make sure to get this matter done. ”
Jian Yong is still the same, everyone is sitting upright, but he is half-lying, according to the case. Hearing this, he lazily arched his hand and said, "No." ”
This is the case, how to do it, Liu Bei will not interfere, and Jian Yong will coordinate and help Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, and Chen to increase the number of soldiers.
Follow-up training does not need Liu Bei's intervention, and the generals are very reliable.
However, Zhang Fei remembered something again, and said to Liu Bei: "Big brother, I heard that my eldest nephew is leading the troops well, don't you want to add some soldiers and horses to him?" ”
Uncle is still uncle, although Zhang Mengwu gave Guan Ping a meal of fried pork slices with bamboo strips, but with the simple idea that everyone will share it together, he felt that Guan Ping was a bit of a thing, so he said it directly.
Everyone present was stunned, and then Jian Yong sneered: "Guan Ping, he is only eleven years old, and leading 600 soldiers is already shocking. I heard that he is good at training, but how can he be good at new training? It's better to wait for him to train his soldiers and horses to be strong, and a few years older, and it's not too late to increase his troops. ”
Jian Yong said this reasonably, that is, Guan Yu, the pro-Laozi, also said: "Third brother, that kid in my family is too young, and I don't agree with it." ”
Zhang Fei saw that everyone disagreed, so he couldn't help but be stupid.
It was Zhang Fei and Zhang Mengwu who made a small episode, this guy deserves to be everyone's pistachio, and he can be a demon from time to time.
Jian Yong, Mi Zhu, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Chen Dao, Zhao Yun and others said goodbye and planned to leave, Liu Bei also approved, but left Zhao Yun alone.
