Chapter 335: De Rong Joins the Army (3)
Su Jin was very supportive of Liu Ximing's arrangement for the Longxiang Brigade to join the army, because this was the policy of "independent development and integration into it" that he proposed to Liu Ximing at the beginning.
His concern was about the specifics.
Even though Liu Ximing was panicked, he still pretended to be confident on his face.
"Sir, have you forgotten the system of ideological and political officials and the iron-blooded Datong Society that I implemented in the army before, I believe that we have the ability to control the Longxiang Brigade in our hands all the time."
Liu Ximing's calm appearance made Su Jin's confidence a lot stronger, he had been in Liujia Village for a few years, and he also knew something about the Liu family's freak-like organizational system.
In particular, after the establishment of the Datong Society, Liu Ximing set up the Iron-Blooded Datong Society in the army and in the villages, requiring officers and administrative personnel at all levels to study the theory of Datong and the study of material and mental science, and at the same time join the Iron-blooded Datong Society.
This move is simply shocking in Su Jin's opinion, there were originally ideological and political officers in the army, but it was mainly about letting everyone cherish the happy life now and be loyal to the Liu family.
After the establishment of the Iron-Blooded Datong Society, the content of this lecture suddenly became how to improve the social and political system to eliminate exploitation, why the Datong world is the ultimate pursuit of mankind, and other topics closely related to social and political affairs.
According to Liu Ximing's words, the current Liu family and Longxiang Brigade have more feelings for the country and the people than before.
It's just that this set of things looks quite fancy, but whether it is useful or not, how useful it is, Su Jin still has the idea of waiting and seeing.
"The lord said this, he must have thought it through, so let's take a step at a time."
Su Jin squeezed out a smile and replied.
It's only one step at a time, Liu Ximing sighed in his heart.
At present, although the Datong Society and the Iron-blooded Datong Society have been established, in Liu Ximing's view, there is still the most critical step that has not been completed.
That is, the most important function of the Romans Society and the iron-blooded Romans as political parties, the issue of the expression of interests, has not been properly resolved.
As Liu Ximing's expansion in Shilin, although the Datong Society mainly unites the Hanmen among the scholars, the Hanmen Shizi is also a scholar and always represents the interests of the gentry.
It is precisely because of this that Liu Ximing established the Iron-Blood Datong Society, the purpose of which is to return to the most critical purpose of the Datong Theory.
That is, to bring salt to the poor people of the world.
But because of practical reasons, this article can only be said vaguely and secretly, so Liu Ximing is also skeptical about its effect.
The lights in Liu Ximing's big tent were lit until midnight, and the 400 people of the second battalion and the second regiment had a total of 14 tuns, and each tun was called to the tent to talk one by one.
The tradition of obedience played a big role in the tradition, and although everyone was a little worried about the imminent fierce war against the thieves, they still expressed it
Obey the arrangement.
Early the next morning, Cao Bianjiao's department began to merge with the second regiment.
Hearing Cao Bianjiao's announcement that the 400 people next to him would join him from now on, Shao Derong served as the general manager of Qian, and more than 3,000 soldiers all looked at it quite freshly.
All 400 people were dressed in green cotton waist-length soft armor, blue and black battle robes, black hats, and black official boots on their feet.
In addition, yesterday, the Longxiang Brigade helped to treat the wounded and helped build a camp to improve logistics, so it can be said that Shao Derong's department joined Cao Bianjiao's department, and it has automatically won the favor of the whole army.
Cao Bianjiao rested for the night, and then resumed the demeanor of a majestic silver-robed young general, seeing that the team had been cleaned up, he waved his hand, "The whole army is ready, immediately pull out the camp to pursue the enemy." ”
"Yes"
"Whoa"
Although the voices of the answers were different, the two teams were forbidden, and in an instant, four thousand people once again picked up their horses and pursued Li Zicheng's troops along the direction of Shangluo.
Although Shao Derong has enlisted in the army, Liu Ximing does not intend to let go of this opportunity to have a relationship with Cao Bianjiaola, so he naturally took the personal guard group to attack together, which can be regarded as helping Shao Derong better integrate into it.
Li Zicheng thought that he was scared of being beaten, and the army pursued for two days without a trace, of course, this was also related to Cao Bianjiao becoming more cautious.
However, this gave Liu Ximing a good opportunity, and he took over the matter of eating more than 4,000 people in the whole army in the name of Xiezan's military funds.
This not only allowed him to take Shao Derong and others to visit more than 100 officers of all sizes in the army, but also captured the favor of the whole army with fresh dishes such as potato roast meat and cornmeal flatbread.
On weekdays, when fighting in the field, everyone can have dry food to eat, and it is good to have soup to drink, where to live Liu Ximing's treasure chest of all kinds of fresh ingredients.
With sufficient logistical support, Cao Bianjiao's troops broke out with great enthusiasm for fighting.
On the second day of the second month of February, the dragon raised its head.
Cao Bianjiao was resting in Xiaowanggou with Liu Ximing and others at this time, seeing that he was approaching Nanyang, he still hadn't caught up with Li Zicheng, and Cao Bianjiao's mood became more and more irritable.
"Fucking thieves, they all run faster than rabbits, that Li thief, known as a general, has tens of thousands of people, but he doesn't even dare to fight, it's really unlucky."
"And you, you know how to eat all day long, a bunch of lazy people, if you run faster, you will catch up with these dogs."
On the edge of a big stone next to the official road of Xiaowanggou, Cao Bianjiao was furious in front of a group of officers.
Liu Ximing saw that the officers were scolded and looked around, so he had to come forward to relieve the siege and said: "Brother, this matter is no wonder, it is your fault." ”
Cao Bianjiao was really attracted by his words, his expression softened suddenly, and he pointed at Liu Ximing and scolded with a smile: "You kid, I'll fall."
I'm going to hear you about how this became my fault. ”
Liu Ximing smiled, "If it weren't for your prestige, how could these gangsters run away when they heard the news, did you say it was your fault." ”
"Hahaha", Cao Bianjiao's officers laughed and slapped his ass.
Before Cao Bianjiao could speak, several knights from the direction of Nanyang came to the dust.
"Report, Neixiang County found traces of Liukou."
Cao Bianjiao's face changed, and he turned around and shouted at his flag officer: "How far is this place from the inner countryside? ”
"General, less than twenty miles."
Cao Bianjiao flicked his whip excitedly, "The whole army has it, set off at full speed, and break the thieves in Neixiang County." ”
The generals and officials were in an uproar, and the neighing of horses in Xiaowanggou was endless.
When Liu Ximing set off from Sichuan, there were hundreds of horses in the team, although they were only short Sichuan horses, but they were enough to hurry, but they were a little shabby compared with the tall horses of Cao Bianjiao's department.
Twenty miles was less than two quarters of an hour for an all-cavalry team, and before noon, the forward troops had already caught up with the thieves.
The sudden appearance of the cavalry team made the thieves panic, and at this time they had reached the territory of Neixiang County, which belonged to the Nanyang Basin, except for the mountains in the southwest, the rest of the place was a plain.
"Breaking general, how is it good?"
Li Zicheng's generals Yuan Zongdi, Liu Zongmin and others all gathered around him, but they didn't expect Cao Bianjiao to catch up with him.
"Grass is a fucking melon, if he wants to die, he will fulfill him."
Li Zicheng failed to ambush in Jiataogou, but he suffered a lot of losses in vain, and he was really a little angry in his heart.
Who knew that one of the generals had a temperament and a handsome face, and a young general held his horse's head and persuaded: "You can't break into the generals, Cao Bianjiao's troops are all cavalry, and their momentum is like a tiger in the mountains, and the generals can't be hard enemies, it's better to leave the old and weak behind, and I'll go as soon as possible." ”
"Li Yan is right, let's go."
"The officers and soldiers are rushing over!"
Before Li Zicheng and the generals could come up with a result, the thieves broke out in a shout, and panic instantly spread among the thieves.
Li Zicheng turned his head to see that the smoke and sand raised by thousands of war horses were rushing towards him.
"Dog's Cao madman, he has the same virtue as his dead ghost uncle, fight first, otherwise we won't be able to escape."
Mo said that it was Li Zicheng, and even Liu Ximing was almost shocked to drop his jaw.
Where have modern people seen real cavalry warfare, and the party had just caught the tail of Li Zicheng's army, and Cao Bianjiao actually ordered the whole army to charge.
What the hell is this fairy operation?
In an instant, Liu Ximing understood why Cao Bianjiao was called a peerless general.
This is completely desperate!
