Chapter 151: "Pingyang Army"

Sure enough, after Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao left, they immediately went to see Zhao Hongrun in person and told the latter about it.

And as Qu Cheng expected, Zhao Hongrun was not interested in this at all, and after saying some reassuring words, he followed the wishes of the two and asked them to monitor Qu Cheng as well.

After all, Qu Cheng now has a lot of military power in his hands, and it is not a bad thing to have a few more people to monitor.

Moreover, because this matter has already been clearly explained, even Zhao Hongrun sent four guards to monitor Qu Cheng, and clearly told Qu Cheng that it was to monitor him, so even if Gu Liangwei and Wu Majiao are added, it will not affect the relationship between Zhao Hongrun and Qu Cheng, it doesn't matter if there is or not.

On the other hand, Zhao Hongrun is very satisfied with Qu Cheng's various arrangements.

In particular, Qu Cheng took into account the attitude of the Wei soldiers of the Junshui Battalion, and capped the position of General Chu under his command to 3,000 generals, which made Zhao Hongrun feel more and more that Qu Cheng was a rare general.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhao Hongrun personally went to the garrison of the surrendered troops of the Chu State to inspect it, and sure enough, he found that the surrendered troops of the Chu State were in formation under the command of the generals, and the teams were lined up very neatly.

At this time, it happened that Yan Mo, the newly recruited general of Qu Cheng, was also inspecting and monitoring the rectification of the army under his command, and saw Zhao Hongrun coming to their station under the protection of Shen Yu and Zhang Biao, two sect guards and a team of Wei soldiers, he was slightly startled, and after hesitating for a long time, he decided to take the initiative to come forward to greet them.

"The last general, Yan Mo, has seen King Su!"

For this King Su of Wei, Yan Mo seems to be a great gift on behalf of loyalty, after all, in his opinion, Qu Cheng is currently loyal to His Royal Highness King Su, so as Qu Cheng's general, he made the best etiquette to Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su, and it is not considered to be overstepping.

It's a pity. Including Zhao Hongrun, the Wei people here didn't know what Yan Mo's ritual of knocking on the ground on one knee and hitting the ground with his right fist meant, and they all thought it was a military salute from the Chu State, which made Yan Mo feel a little embarrassed.

"General Yan Mo, right? …… Have you thought about the name of the new army? ”

"Salutation?" Yan Mo was stunned, feeling that the thoughts of the Su King in front of him seemed to be a little different from ordinary people, logically speaking. Shouldn't we first inquire about the progress of the army's rectification?

As if sensing the surprise in Yan Mo's heart, Zhao Hongrun smiled and explained: "Since this king handed over this army to Qu Cheng, he will not interfere in his rectification again, I believe that with a heroic hero of the Chu State like General Yan Mo to assist Qu Cheng, it will definitely not go wrong." ”

I have to say that the words of praise are also scored from what kind of people's mouths, if they are said by ordinary people, I believe Yan Mo will not feel anything, but when he heard the praise of Chu Yingjie from the mouth of this King Su of Wei. Yan Mo couldn't help but feel a little hot in his heart, just like when he was valued by Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng.

"Thanks to His Royal Highness King Su's honor, Yan Mo is ashamed."

Yan Mo sighed sincerely, the amount of the Su King in front of him is really as Qu Cheng said, what a great mind it is, you must know that ordinary people will let Qu Cheng, who was born in the Chu State, lead a group of generals who were also born in the Chu State. In charge of a Chu army of more than 50,000 people?

If Qu Cheng suddenly turned against the water, the 20,000 Junshui troops and 10,000 Yanling soldiers under the command of King Su of Wei. I'm afraid they will all die on this land.

But it is undeniable that this feeling of being trusted is really good, especially after surrendering to the originally hostile Wei State, being trusted and respected by His Royal Highness the King Su of the Wei State.

After thinking about it, Yan Mo said cautiously: "Why don't you introduce the general process of rectification to His Highness?" ”

"Well, let's talk about it. Let the king hear your progress. Zhao Hongrun nodded.

Seeing this, Yan Mo hugged his fists and said solemnly: "Your Highness also knows that this army is composed of the original Xiong Amber army and the original Xiong ...... Hmm, Xiong Tuojun is composed. The two armies have grievances against each other, so General Qu Cheng plans to break up the original establishment of the two surrendered armies......" Speaking of this, he secretly glanced at Zhao Hongrun, and reserved a space for Zhao Hongrun to express his opinions.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hongrun just nodded in response, without the slightest intention of giving instructions or expressing any opinions.

So, Yan Mo had no choice but to continue to talk and tell Zhao Hongrun about the distribution of military power that Qu Cheng had decided before.

I have to say that when it comes to the four generals Zuo Xunxi, Hua Yu, Gongyesheng, and Zuo Qiumu who are in charge of 5,000 troops each, and he Yan Mo is in charge of 15,000 troops on behalf of Qu Cheng, Yan Mo couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, and for some reason he was afraid of seeing a look of distrust on the face of the King Su in front of him.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hongrun responded absentmindedly, and looked into the distance with his eyes, as if he didn't take his words to heart at all.

Seeing this, Yan Mo was shocked and suspicious in his heart, and couldn't help but ask tentatively, "Isn't Your Highness worried?" ”

"What?" Zhao Hongrun finally spoke after a long time, and looked at Yan Mo in confusion.

"The last general said, "Isn't Your Highness worried? It seems that a new general like Yan Mo has such military power in his hands, isn't His Highness worried? ”

Zhao Hongrun glanced at Yan Mo when he heard this, and saw that his face was full of expressions of gain and loss, so he smiled and said: "If something goes wrong, this king will go to Qucheng." ”

"Huh?"

Yan Mo looked at Zhao Hongrun in amazement and was silent.

"Is it difficult to understand the words of this king? It's not hard to understand. Zhao Hongrun also looked at Yan Mo puzzled, and explained: "This king is only in charge of Qu Cheng, and he has Qu Cheng in charge of generals like General Yan Mo, and General Yan Mo is responsible for supervising the generals below, and the generals below are responsible for supervising the general soldiers, isn't it good to be able to do this layer by layer?" This king does not have the ability to supervise 50,000 people. ”

"No, no, it's not that the last general doesn't understand His Highness's words, it's just ......" Yan Mo glanced at Zhao Hongrun with a complicated expression.

Although Zhao Hongrun said it very clearly, in fact, if you don't have enough mind, who can achieve such a level of trust?

At least Yan Mo thought to himself, if he was Zhao Hongrun, he might not dare to hand over a more than 50,000 Chu troops to Qu Cheng, who was born in Chu, even if he finally agreed, he would definitely install Wei generals in the army, how dare he be like Zhao Hongrun, he really left it alone.

"This king knows what you want to say." Seeing Yan Mo's nervous expression, Zhao Hongrun smiled and said with relief: "This king thinks so, since you are willing to surrender to my Great Wei, whether it is this king or my Great Wei." I won't treat you badly, if you wait for my Great Wei's treatment to be several times better than in Chu State, how many will you rebel? ”

"......" Yan Mo opened his mouth, speechless.

"Let's think about the name of the new army with Qu Cheng, it's too ugly to hear if it's always called the surrender of the army. …… This king has said it. Since you have surrendered to my Great Wei, this king will treat everyone equally, regardless of Wei and Chu. …… Decide on the number of the new army, and remember to send someone to tell the king. ”

As he spoke, he patted Yan Mo on the shoulder, and Zhao Hongrun took a group of people into the distance, leaving Yan Mo alone standing in place dumbfounded, watching Zhao Hongrun's group leave.

I don't know how long it took, Yan Mo suddenly felt someone tap him on the shoulder.

Let's take a look back. saw Qu Cheng looking at himself in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Qu Cheng asked puzzled.

Yan Mo let out a long breath and said, "Fang Cai, King Su came to inspect ......"

"Oh." Qu Cheng was stunned, and then asked curiously, "What do you feel?" ”

I saw Yan Mo pondering for a while, and said with a wry smile: "I feel that I want to be better than Master Xiong Tuo...... Well, it's much easier to get along with than Xiong Tuo, and it's very kind......"

"Kindness?"

Qu Cheng looked at Yan Mo with a strange expression. The heart said that it was because you didn't see how the King of Su forced him to surrender at the beginning, and it was really decisive. Even if you say a wrong word, the end is death.

"But usually, that King Su is really kind......

Thinking about it carefully, Qu Cheng reluctantly recognized Yan Mo's initial impression of Zhao Hongrun, and he himself was a little afraid of Zhao Hongrun, after all, Zhao Hongrun was forced to surrender to him. Persuading can only be to blame the mistake and surrender to the Great Wei.

Those sharp words like sharp knives, Qu Cheng thought that he would never forget.

Shaking his head and putting those bad memories behind, Qu Cheng diverted the topic and asked, "What did King Su say about our rectification?" ”

I saw Yan Mo shrugging. said strangely: "King Su told us to think about the number of the new army, saying yes, always shouting when the army surrenders and surrenders the army, which is not very good." ”

"The number of the new army...... I really didn't expect that.'"

Qu Cheng was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked around, but unfortunately he didn't see any trace of Zhao Hongrun's gang.

"Is it necessary?"

"Of course it's necessary." Qu Cheng glanced at Yan Mo strangely, and immediately sighed sincerely: "In fact, it is more important than rectifying the army...... Only by taking a new name can we make the soldiers and generals under our command forget the past and give up the Chu State over time...... Don't look at the young age of the King of Su, what he says is often in one sentence. ”

"I feel the same way." Yan Mo nodded convincingly, and then asked curiously, "Then let's ...... What is the number? ”

I saw Qu Cheng standing in place, staring at the more than 50,000 Chu troops in the distance who were being rectified, and pondered for a moment.

After a long time, he said loudly: "Ping Xuan Army! ”

"Ping...... ...... Army?'

Yan Mo's face changed slightly when he heard this.

Although it is said that "暘" and "yang" have the same sound, Yan Mo will never think that it is "yang", after all, the meaning of "Ping Xuan Army" is too obvious: to level the army of Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuan City!

As if noticing Yan Mo's expression, Qu Cheng Zhengse said: "Right now, what we have to consider is how to gain more trust from King Su, so that we can gain a firm foothold in the Wei State in the future." ”

Yan Mo thought about it, gritted his teeth and nodded heavily.

"Hmm!"

Before sunset that night, Qu Cheng, Yan Mo and others hurried to complete the rectification.

At the same time, he also handed over the number of "Ping Xuan Army" to Zhao Hongrun.

I have to say that when Zhao Hongrun heard about the new name of the "Pingxuan Army", the new name of the Chu Army, his face was strange, and his heart was clear: This must be Qu Cheng, Yan Mo and others showing him their hearts.

This is a good sign.

So, Zhao Hongrun ordered people to take out all the grains, meat, and wine in the baggage of Xiong Tuo, the former king of Xuancheng, and reward the three armies.

At noon the next day, after waiting for all the soldiers and soldiers to eat again, 20,000 Junshui troops, 10,000 Yanling soldiers, and 50,000 Pingxuan troops officially waved their troops towards Chu and headed towards Shangcai on the border between Chu and Wei.

At this time, the troops under Zhao Hongrun have reached more than 80,000 people!

"PS: Thank you for the 10,000 yuan reward from the book friend, buddy, you are really powerful, I just sent it. Well, add a more chapter. Note: I will indicate similar additions, such as "reward plus more x/x", I will not cheat." (To be continued.) )
