Chapter 146: Recruitment

When Emperor Jin heard this, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

The power of the Hu family is too huge, and Li Yanshi, the son of King Cheng, is indeed a good soldier in training, and he is also an expert in warfare.

In that year, when he led the Jin army and fought with the Qin army in the area of the Yellow River, he used a trick to deceive the main force of the Qin army from the other side of the Yellow River, so as to ambush and kill it on the side of the Yellow River.

Erlang has experience in the army, but that was when he was ten years old, and at that time, he was only a royal clansman, with a hundred personal soldiers, just wandering around.

At that time, I remember that he slaughtered civilians at will, and was almost dragged out of the barracks and beheaded by Taishi Li Yanhu because of this.

Erlang doesn't have any experience in military training, not to mention that he has lost all his memories now, even if he remembers something, it won't help.

So if you want to compete for Queen Hu, I'm afraid it's very difficult.

Feeling the sorrow of Emperor Jin, Li Lang said beside him: "Brother Huang, and relax, as the saying goes, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat is naturally straight to the bridge. ”

Yun Guogong looked at Li Lang in surprise, he found that this King Xiang, no matter what he did, there were some newborn calves who were not afraid of tigers.

Who gave him the courage?

But then again, His Royal Highness King Xiang, every time you do something, when everyone thinks it is going to fail and is impossible, it can bring people surprises one by one.

Perhaps, he is really hidden.

Emperor Jin said: "Erlang, this time it will be difficult for you to do it again." ”

"This is what my brother should do."

Li Langzuo said.

Emperor Jin nodded, looked at Yun Guogong with a smile, and suddenly said: "Yun Guogong is about to travel far away, I called you over today, in addition to telling you about this military training, there is another one, that is, in the Daming Palace, a banquet for Yun Guogong to see him off." ”

When Yun Guogong heard this, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "This, the minister doesn't dare to be." ”

"There's nothing you don't dare to do."

Yun Guogong's send-off banquet was held in Daming Palace.

The people who came to participate in the banquet, in addition to a few important ministers in the court, and those who were close to Yunguo Gong were the officials of the Criminal Department who were familiar with Li Lang.

The banquet was held in the evening, and the banquet was not attended by many people, and it was quite deserted.

Empress Hu seems to have informed other officials that whoever dares to participate in this banquet held by the emperor will not be able to get along with her Hu family.

However, Yun Guogong, who was the protagonist of this banquet, was much more loyal to Emperor Jin because of this banquet.

Anyway, this is also a banquet for him.

At the banquet, in addition to drinking delicious food with the Duke of Yunguo and the emperor, Li Lang paid the most attention to Yunxiu.

At that time, Yunxiu sat at a table with him.

The two princes and princesses haven't seen each other for almost ten days.

At the banquet, Li Lang silently drank wine while holding Yunxiu's hand.

Yunxiu is a very important person to Li Lang.

With Yunxiu, it is equivalent to having the big backer of the Yun family.

The Yun family, Yun Guogong is too important to Li Lang, and there is no one else to support him in this court except for the Criminal Department.

It's a pity that Li Lang has not been able to recover his energy after going dark because of Queen Hu, otherwise, he plans to have something with Yun Xiu after Yun Guogong leaves, which is not easy for outsiders to know.

The banquet lasted until midnight, when it was over.

After Li Lang went back, he didn't care about anything else, just waiting for the next day, when the emperor announced that Li Lang was presiding over the training of recruits.

On the second day, at the court meeting of the Yizheng Palace, when the Jin Emperor proposed that after the Jin State destroyed the Song State, the troops were insufficient and it was necessary to increase the source of troops, and let Li Yanxin, the king of Xiang, preside over the training plan, sure enough, Hu Wei and they put forward their opinions.

Hu Wei said at the court meeting: "Your Majesty, although His Royal Highness King Xiang knows how to handle cases and settle accounts, he has never led troops at all. ”

Hu Wei's words, Emperor Jin naturally did not want to listen.

Many people who stood on the side of Emperor Jin chose to remain silent.

The entire council hall was in an embarrassment.

At this time, an official came out and said: "Hu Shangshu, this statement is bad, everything is capable and cannot, His Royal Highness King Xiang has repeatedly created miracles for His Majesty, how can it be said that he can't train soldiers?" Perhaps, His Royal Highness King Xiang knows how to train troops, but he didn't give King Xiang the opportunity to train before. ”

Hearing this, Emperor Jin's face improved slightly.

In this regard, Li Lang did not speak.

Hu Wei naturally knew that it was impossible for Emperor Jin to dispel his mind with his mouth.

At this time, his eyes looked at the person on the side, and the person came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, the matter of military training is very important, and the minister thinks that King Xiang really lacks experience in this area." ”

"Yes, what Lord Zheng said is very true, the minister thinks that training can make Li Yanshi, the son of King Cheng, go out, Li Yanshi has experience in leading soldiers, better than Taishi, better than Yunguo Gong, with him training, he will be able to train an elite soldier for His Majesty."

After the officials just finished speaking, another official stood up to speak to Hu Wei.

Obviously, Hu Wei and the others have been prepared for a long time.

Emperor Jin did not speak.

Soon, there was a strange silence in the council hall.

In this case, Zhang Ge Lao walked out and said to Emperor Jin: "Your Majesty, since both sides are arguing, the minister thinks it is better to do this, let King Xiang, as well as the king of the county, come to train the soldiers, give them three months, train a thousand elite soldiers, and wait for three months, when the time comes, let King Xiang and King Li Jun, take out the soldiers in their hands, compare them with each other, let Your Majesty take a look, see who trains the soldiers, in line with the standards of elite soldiers, Your Majesty, what do you think?" ”

Emperor Jin didn't speak, but Hu Wei said: "What Elder Zhang Ge said is very true, Your Majesty, the minister agreed to let King Xiang and Li Yanshi compete. ”

"It's the same with the minister."

"It's the same with the minister."

"The minister also thinks that what Zhang Ge said is good."

Soon, as soon as Zhang Gelao's words fell, the courtiers in the court agreed in unison.

When Emperor Jin saw this, he was happy, this was exactly the result he wanted.

Emperor Jin said: "Okay, just do what Zhang Aiqing said, King Xiang, Li Yanshi, what questions do you two have?" But what's not to be convinced? ”

When Li Lang heard this, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, my brother has no objection. ”

After Li Lang finished speaking, Li Yanshi said at the same time: "Yes, the minister has no objection." ”

Emperor Jin nodded and said, "That's right, give you two or three months, give me, and train a thousand soldiers for the Jin Kingdom." ”

"Yes!"

"Yes......"

Li Lang and Li Yanshi said in unison.

After they all agreed to this competition agreement, Emperor Jin also put forward the matters that must be paid attention to when training, and they were not allowed to do some unfair things during military training.

Regarding Emperor Jin's words, Li Lang and Li Yanshi naturally had no objections, and Hu Wei and they had no objections.

The court meeting of the council hall seemed to end in a harmonious atmosphere.

Li Lang ended the court meeting and went to the Xiangwang Mansion alone.

The candidate for Yu Linwei, Emperor Jin will naturally send someone to choose Li Lang, and Li Lang does not need to worry about it.

When Li Lang returned to the palace, Bai Ruyu and the black-toothed Xiongzhi came out to greet him.

Bai Ruyu was a little excited, he knew that Li Lang was going to train his troops.

However, Li Lang looked at the two guards in front of him and said that he would go to the city gate in the south to see off Yun Guogong later.

Li Lang's quasi-father-in-law, less than half a month after entering Beijing, was finally ready to go to the newly recovered land of the Song Kingdom.

At the gate of the south of the city, before Yun Guogong packed up and was ready to leave, Emperor Jin took a bunch of civil and military officers to the south of the city to see him off.

Li Lang was naturally in the queue.

The head of the Yun family, Yun Xin, who is now named the Duke of Song, is talking heroically with Emperor Jin.

Hu Wei, who was standing far away, looked at Yun Guogong's appearance, and felt very uncomfortable.

Because of their son, Xuyang Hou Hu Zhe, it led to today's situation, and Yunxin Yunguo Gong was their most powerful arm.

While sighing, he saw Li Lang, who was not far from the Duke of Yunguo, holding one of the relics left by Zhou Taizu in his hand - a mobile phone, recording the scene of the separation of monarchs and ministers.

Li Lang recorded this video, naturally to show it to Yunxiu, who stayed in the palace and couldn't come out.

This is also the gift he is going to give to Yunxiu.

After sending off the Duke of Yunguo, the emperor drove back to the palace.

Li Lang was also on the way back to the palace and met officials from the military department.

This official was ordered by Emperor Jin to come to the palace to discuss military training with Li Lang.

The so-called military training is nothing more than the recruitment of healthy men over the age of 12 and under the age of 50.

And Li Lang has his own requirements for this recruitment.

When the officials of the military department were invited into the front hall of the palace, Li Lang told him that the soldiers he recruited must all be honest people, and in addition to being honest people, Li Lang also asked them to be able to shoot a bow of 200 stones.

This method of recruitment has never been heard of by this official of the Ministry of War.

Li Lang hadn't actually heard of it, he had asked for it according to the training manual given to him by Yun Guogong.

Although the officials of the Ministry of War did not understand Li Lang's intentions, they still followed his arrangement.

The place where the recruits were recruited was in a military camp in the south of the city.

After discussing some precautions for recruiting troops with Li Lang, the officials of the Ministry of War sent people to post notices of recruiting troops at the four gates of the capital.

At the same time, Li Yanshi, the son of King Cheng, also discussed the way of recruiting troops with the people from the Ministry of War, and asked the people from the Ministry of War to go and post notices.

His recruitment method is different from Li Lang, no matter what kind of person he is, as long as he wants to be a soldier, he can enter his barracks.

Li Yanshi, who had fought on the battlefield for several years, was naturally more familiar with military training than Li Lang, a person who had never trained in military training.

And he also has a pair of eyes that can tell if you are a seedling in the army.

It can be said that compared with Li Yanshi's training, Li Lang is simply a grasshopper shaking a tree, and he can't help himself.

Hu Wei is still very confident in this competition.

You must know that in addition to Li Yanshi, Empress Hu also sent the most skilled generals in the Yulin Army to Li Yanshi's barracks.

And the two military training leaders for Emperor Jin are the most useless and marginal characters in the Yulin Army.

The two families trained at the same time, which gave some melon-eating people in the capital one more melon to eat.

Many gambling houses have begun to place bets, betting on King Xiang, or betting on Li Yanshi, will win the fruits of victory in this training.

And many of the gambling people in the capital chose Li Yanshi, the son of King Cheng, and they were not optimistic that Li Lang could train an elite army in just three months.

In addition to the people who are not optimistic, many ministers in the court are also not optimistic.

For example, Zhao Yi, the chief examiner who was still participating in the marking of papers in the Gongyuan Academy, wrote to Li Lang and said that he should look for a few fierce generals who trained the army, otherwise he would really lose to Li Yanshi and the Hu family.

However, Li Lang didn't care about other people's rumors, and even Zhao Yi's letters, he threw them aside.

Throughout the day, together with Bai Ruyu and Black-toothed Bear, together with the two forbidden army leaders that Emperor Jin had just selected for him from the Yulin Army, he selected honest and powerful adult men in the military camp.

The two sect leaders sent to Li Lang by Emperor Jin, one had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the other had a head like a leopard.

Looking at this person with a leopard's head, the whole person looked a little melancholy, and when he was named Lin Leopard's sect leader, Li Lang almost thought that this person had something to do with Lin Chong in the Water Margin.

And this Lin Leopard, although he is a member of the Yulin Army, he did not show any dissatisfaction with Li Lang, but with another leader, he was very serious and responsible for this recruitment.

Li Lang asked Bai Ruyu, he was worried about whether these two leaders were playing tricks and whether they were acting for him.

However, before Bai Ruyu could speak, the black-toothed bear on the side swore to Li Lang and said: "Lord Wang, another sect leader, his subordinates don't dare to pack tickets, this Lin sect leader, his subordinates have already heard of it, this person is strong in martial arts, but he is indeed a tendon, in the Yulin Army, he is not loved by his colleagues, they treat him as a marginal person."

But please rest assured, no matter what this person does, as long as it is explained by the superiors, he can continue to work hard. ”

I see, this is also an honest man.

Li Lang, who was sitting in the tent, looked at Lin Leopard, who was registering every man in the barracks not far ahead, and felt so confident in his heart.

Just as Lin Bao and another leader were recruiting soldiers in the barracks, a young man from the north with a spear on his back walked straight from outside.

When he walked to the registration office and put down the spear, Lin Leopard subconsciously raised his head to look at him and asked, "Who are you, where are you from, where do you live, and how old are you this year?" ”

The young man looked at Lin Leopard, and then glanced at Li Lang, who was sitting in the middle of the barracks, and then said: "The villain Mu Ji, Nai Shi Yuanzhou, Xiangping Town Ren, is eighteen years old this year. ”

"Eighteen?"

Lin Bao carefully looked at the young man named Mu Ji in front of him, and he found that this young man had a full vestibule, two bright eyes, and very developed muscles on his arms.

And when he spoke, there was no dodging.

It doesn't look like the kind of sloppy settlement in the market, where there are fights and brawls.

All in all, Lin Leopard admired the young man in front of him very much.

He knew that His Royal Highness King Xiang behind him had entrusted him with all the responsibility of recruiting troops, so he understood how big his responsibility was.

He looked at Mu Ji for a while before he said, "Well, leave your address, and you can come to report tomorrow." ”

Mu Ji looked at Lin Leopard, clasped his fists and said: "Thank you for this military master, the villain just entered Beijing today, and there is nothing else to go, so he lives in a broken temple in the south of the city......"
