Guide to the house, the next day

Yesterday Liu Xia occupied Guide Mansion, and then in the evening, the new barracks, the Lion Battalion, the Eagle Yang Battalion, and the four battalions of the logistics battalion also returned to this Guide Mansion, Liu Xia ordered a battalion of soldiers to guard all parts of the city, so that the army could rest for a day, and everything would be talked about the next day.

Early the next morning, the lobby that was originally used by the prefect was crowded with Liu Xia and other generals.

Liu Xia naturally sat in the main seat, and the other two sides sat Wang Shishi, the commander of the Guardian Battalion, Liu Dazhuang, the commander of the Huben Battalion, Zhang Yuan, the commander of the Wolf Howling Battalion, Yu Mingjun, the commander of the Eagle Yang Battalion, Niu Wei, the commander of the Lion Battalion, Wang En, the commander of the Logistics Battalion, Zhang Liang, the commander of the Recruit Battalion, the deputy commander of the Logistics Battalion and Chen Liu, the deputy commander of the Huben Battalion, Jiang Xin, the deputy commander of the Huben Battalion, Ma Peng, the deputy commander of the Wolf Howling Battalion, Li Gu, the deputy commander of the Yingyang Battalion, Lei Ming, the deputy commander of the Lion Roar Battalion, Niu Chao, the deputy commander of the Recruit Battalion, and Meng Yu, the director of the Supervision Department.

If someone comes to attack at this time and kills this room, then Liu Xia's army is basically finished, and this room is full of senior generals of various battalions.

Liu Xia glanced at everyone, rubbed his temples and asked, "Zhang Yuan, have you found all those craftsmen and tailors?" ”

Zhang Yuan got up and replied, "Return to the general, the last general will find 500 craftsmen and 1,000 tailors." Don't know if it's enough? ”

Liu Xia nodded and said, "Well, that's right, with these people, we can look everything new in a few days." You tell those craftsmen and tailors that one tael of silver a day is not bad, but the clothes and weapons are all made for General Ben, and if you find any weapons and clothes that are not good, then don't blame General Ben for not being merciful. ”

Zhang Yuan bowed and said: "Yes, general, the last general must tell me." ”

Wang En frowned and said, "General, is one or two pieces of silver too much a day?" ”

Liu Xia smiled and waved his hand and said: "Not much, not much, now we have seized hundreds of thousands of silver in this Guide Mansion, you must know that we are not ready to stay in this place, these too much silver are not easy to transport, and this general is worried that there is no place to use it!" Moreover, these craftsmen are also in difficulty, and the general has mercy on them in his heart. ”

When Wang En saw Liu Xia say this, although he was still a little reluctant to give up the money, he didn't dare to say anything more about it.

Liu Xia continued: "Now that we occupy this Guide Mansion, we want food and food, money and money, nothing is bad, and all the soldiers can rest assured." General Ben wanted to give our army a name, a flag, and a new uniform. ”

Wang En asked, "I don't know if the general has any ideas?" ”

Liu Xia paused for a while and said, "Chen Liu." ”

As soon as Liu Xia's voice was finished, Chen Liu stood up, took out a piece of paper in his hand, glanced at the generals with a smile, and said, "Generals, I have already discussed this matter with the general before I go down, but before I talk about this matter, I will congratulate the general first." ”

Liu Xia looked at Chen Liu questioningly and said, "Congratulations to General Ben?" Why is that? ”

The other generals were also attracted by Chen Liu's words, and they all looked at each other, Chen Liu shook his fan with a smile, and said: "As far as I know, what the generals did in Yangzhou City is now known to the world. ”

"Cut, we thought it was something, it turned out that the whole world knew, and I already knew that it would definitely be known to the whole world." Wang Shishi said with a proud face.

Liu Xia shouted: "Stone, listen to Mr. ”

The others turned their eyes to Chen Liu again, and Chen Liu said with a smile: "As far as I know, the Southern Ming Dynasty heard about the general's move, and immediately rewarded the general as Beiping Bo." In the future, everyone will call the general a lord. ”

"Pingbeibo?" Everyone wondered.

Liu Xia said: "Mr. quickly told the original story. ”

Chen Liudao: "The title of Pingbei Bo is that the general prevented the Qing army from going south, so the imperial court specially rewarded it, but the whereabouts of the general before were not known to outsiders, and the Southern Ming Dynasty naturally did not know where the general was, but just announced to the world that the general was rewarded as Pingbei Bo, because he did not know the whereabouts of the general, so the holy decree of the reward did not come and handed it over to the general." ”

"General, you listen to the title "Pingbei Bo" given to you by the Southern Ming Dynasty, before the Southern Ming Dynasty has always wanted to rule across the river from the Qing army in the north, and privately negotiated with the Qing court, and has always held this expectation in my heart.

However, knowing that the Qing army had reached the city of Nanjing, the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty knew that it was impossible for the Manchu Qing Dynasty to rule by dividing the river with itself, so it gave the title of the general Pingbeibo. ”

After Liu Xia heard this, he couldn't calm down for a long time, because he didn't want to have the slightest involvement with Nanming, and he didn't look down on Liu Xia at all for the Nanming court, a bunch of mud couldn't help him, if he worked for them, he would definitely die very quickly.

Chen Liu also seemed to see Liu Xia's thoughts and said: "The general doesn't have to worry, how can we say that they can be regarded as officers and soldiers of the Southern Ming Dynasty, now that they have the title of Pingbei Bo, they will be famous for what they will do in the future, although they have won the title of the Southern Ming, but they can ignore the orders of the Southern Ming court." ”

Liu Xia pondered after hearing this, and at this time the hall was quiet, and no one dared to disturb Liu Xia's thinking.

Do you want to accept Nanming's title? If you don't obey the orders of the Southern Ming court, you will rebel, if you don't accept that you have so many troops, you are afraid that it will be too early, and I am afraid that you will soon be wiped out by other forces.

Chen Liudao: "General, now that you have accepted this title, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, you can take the hat of the Southern Ming Dynasty to do things, although the Southern Ming Dynasty is weak and incompetent now, and it can't produce any material help to us, but with this name, the division is famous." ”

Liu Xia pondered: "General Ben also thought about it just now, as Mr. said, it is the advantages that outweigh the disadvantages, then accept this title, and the name of our army will be called Pingbei Army." ”

Chen Liu smiled: "General Shengming." ”

Liu Xia waved his hand and said, "You don't need to talk about this, now you first talk about things like the uniforms of the army." ”

Chen Liu smiled and said, "General, no, sir, you can't call you a general in the future, call me sir." ”

After Chen Liu said that, all the generals present stepped down from their seats one after another and bowed to Liu Xia: "Sir! ”

Liu Xia hurriedly got up and said, "Generals, please get up, please get up." ”

"According to the general's idea, the army's military flag is designed as a black cloth embroidered with a yellow dragon, and each battalion will use this flag in the future, in addition to this flag, each battalion can also design another battalion flag according to its own style, as for what the battalion flag looks like, you can think for yourself, and then submit it to the lord for review when it is done."
