Afterwards, Zhao Hongrun wrote three letters in his own handwriting. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The first letter was naturally a letter to his mother, Concubine Shen Shufei, to the effect that he had arrived in Shangshui and was currently reconciling the relationship between the two counties of Yanling and Anling, so please don't worry about it.

In short, just try to pick good things to say, as for the assassination on the road or something, Zhao Hongrun didn't dare to write it at all, and also instructed Shen Yu not to say anything after returning to Daliang.

The second letter was written by Zhao Hongrun to his fifth uncle, Zhao Yuantong, the king of Yu, asking him to help teach Shen Yu about the experience of commanding troops.

I have to say that this is the first time Zhao Hongrun has written a letter to others in a flattering tone.

There is no way, after all, he and his fifth uncle, although they have met a few times on major festivals in the past ten years, they have not had deep contact after all, and Zhao Hongrun is also a little worried that this uncle will not give him face as a nephew.

As for the third letter, it was sent to his father Wei Tianzi, so that when Zhao Hongrun and his fifth uncle Yu Wang Zhao Yuantong did not give him face as a nephew, Wei Tianzi could help intercede, after all, the relationship between Zhao Hongrun and his fifth uncle Zhao Yuantong was definitely not as good as the relationship between Wei Tianzi and Zhao Yuantong.

After writing these three letters, Zhao Hongrun summoned Cen Zhan, the head of Su Wangwei's guard, and asked him to send twenty Su Wangwei to accompany Shen Yu back to Daliang.

Although Shen Yu kept saying that he could do it alone, Zhao Hongrun considered that the skin injury on his chest had not yet healed, and his right hand could not lift objects for the time being, so he still insisted on being accompanied by the twenty Su Wang Wei.

On March 13, Zhao Hongrun took all the guards to send Shen Yu off with wine, and after he was full of wine and food, he sent Shen Yu all the way to Shangshui Port, and watched Shen Yu board the return fleet of the imperial court household department to return to the royal capital.

"Shen Yu, you guy, you have to study hard!"

"If you can't learn, see how we clean you up in the future!"

"Don't be lazy!"

Before sailing, all the sect guards said to Shen Yu one after another, although their tone sounded very bad, but the heart of the fist made Shen Yu smile, and he was very emotionally embarrassed that as an orphan, he could actually get such a group of brothers of the opposite sex.

"Don't just talk about me...... Wei Jiao, after I leave, you will be the head of the sect, quit your impatient temper. ”

"Less!" Wei Jiao replied angrily.

“…… Lu Mu, you are more stable, look at Wei Jiao for me. ”

"I understand." Lu Mu nodded.

"Chu Heng, protect Your Highness!"

"Don't worry!" Chu Heng patted his chest and swore a promise.

"Zhou Pu, among the brothers, the most reassuring thing for me is you, watch for me."

"Huh." Zhou Pu smiled and nodded.

"Mu Qing, you...... Never mind. Gao Kuo, Zhu Gui, He Miao, Your Highness will ask you......"

"Bastard! What are you talking about? Mu Qing pretended to be angry and shouted, causing the sect guards to laugh.

In the end, Shen Yu set his eyes on Zhao Hongrun, hugged his fists, and said, "Your Highness, that humble ...... For the time being, I will leave His Highness. ”

"Hmm." Zhao Hongrun nodded and said with a smile: "The generals under the command of this king can be in charge alone, so I wish you all the best!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Shen Yu hugged his fists heavily towards Zhao Hongrun and the sect guards.

The fleet set off slowly, and Zhao Hongrun and his party watched Shen Yu gradually disappear at the end of sight with the fleet.

It is undeniable that once upon a time, Zhao Hongrun was always accompanied by ten sect guards, but now there are only nine people left, although it is only temporary, which also makes Zhao Hongrun and the other nine sect guards feel a little uncomfortable.

But then again, Shen Yu's injury this time may not be a bad thing.

After all, staying by Zhao Hongrun's side, this sect guard is at best a guard, even if in the future, as Zhao Hongrun's power increases, these sect guards have the opportunity to become generals with heavy troops, but if they can become generals, they may not necessarily have the corresponding ability.

If everything goes well, Shen Yu can have the opportunity to learn the way of commander by the side of Zhao Yuantong, the king of Yu, then his future achievements will definitely be higher than serving as the head of the sect guard by Zhao Hongrun's side.

Perhaps, I should let the guards go out to hone instead of taking them with me?

A few hints of hesitation flashed in Zhao Hongrun's eyes.

You know, he is like a brother to the guards, he has a lot of trust in them, and the guards are loyal to him.

Therefore, Zhao Hongrun is naturally not satisfied with letting these guards only be limited to the position of guards, if he has a choice, he naturally hopes that these guards can also become generals with heavy troops in the future, like Bailiba, Sima An, Xu Yin, Zhu Hai and others.

Although Zhao Hongrun will not relax in cultivating potential generals like Wu Ji, and will continue to look for talented generals, when it comes to the most reassuring ones, it is none other than these sect guards around him.

If you take these sect guards with you all the time, in fact, it will limit the potential of these sect guards.

However, Zhao Hongrun also understood that if he brought it up like this at this moment, he believed that these sect guards would definitely reject his kindness because they were worried about his safety.

This kind of thing can only be done slowly.

For example, in the future, when these sect guards completely trust the Green Crows, perhaps they will temporarily leave to hone their skills in order to better serve him.

I have to say that Shen Yu's incident made Zhao Hongrun start to think about the future of Zongwei.

After all, if he could, he naturally hoped that the sect guards would be able to take charge of themselves in the future, whether it was to share his worries or to promote these sect guards.

On 14 March, the five-day holiday of the Shangshui Army ended, and all the soldiers of the Shangshui Army returned to the barracks from their second hometown in Shangshui County to devote themselves to a new round of training.

After all, the positioning of the merchant army is the garrison army, not the original kind of farming soldiers, in addition to going out to fight all year round, it is endless training, although boring, but it is indeed the only way to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army.

On the same day, Zhao Hongrun called Wu Ji in front of him.

After all, in the future, the Shang Shui Army will have no task for the time being, even if the Battle of Qi and Chu breaks out, even if Zhao Hongrun is designated as the commander of the Wei Army by Lu Xi, the king of Qi, he may not necessarily take the Shang Shui Army to crusade against the Chu State.

After all, the Shang Shui Army is all from the Chu people, even if they now call themselves Shang Shui people, but for the old country of Chu, they will have some feelings in their hearts, and take them to crusade against the Chu State and push the Chu State into a desperate situation, this kind of thing is too cruel.

Therefore, unless there was another war in the Wei State except for the war with the Chu State, such as with Korea in the north, the Shang Naval Army had nothing else to do for the time being, but boring training day after day.

And the reason why Zhao Hongrun called Wu Ji in front of him was nothing more than to motivate him, so that he trained his generals more strictly, so that the strength of the Shangshui Army could steadily reach the army of the six battalions of the garrison such as the Junshui Army, the Dangshan Army, and the Chenggao Army.

But in the end, Zhao Hongrun pushed out the four Zongwei of Chong Zhao, Zhu Gui, and He Miao, and instructed Wu Ji: "Wu Ji, from today on, the four of them will serve under you. …… Just serve, well, a thousand people. If you have anything to do, you can arrange for them to do it. ”

"Your Highness, ...... you" looked at Zhao Hongrun in surprise.

In addition, Zhu Gui and He Miao also wanted to speak and stopped.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun waved his hand and said: "Shen Yu's matter has made this king think of a problem that he ignored in the past, that is, the cultivation of you Zongwei. …… If you just stay by this king's side, in another ten years, you will still be the sect guard, and you will not be able to improve your skills. Rather than this, this king might as well put you in the Shang Shui Army to hone your temper. After that, he smiled at Wu Ji again: "Wu Ji, don't misunderstand that this king wants to take away your military power." ”

Wu Ji said with a smile when he heard this: "Everything that the last general has now is given by His Royal Highness, even if His Highness takes it back, the last general will have no complaints, just ......" He glanced at the people and others, and said in a slurred manner: "The training in the army is hard, I'm afraid that the four Zongwei adults can't bear it." ”

Ha?

The three of them, Zhu Gui, and He Miao, were a little unhappy when they heard this.

They said in their hearts: When Lao Tzu was trained in the sect, you kid didn't know where he was! Hard training in the army? Will it be more strict and harsh by Zong Wei Yu Lin Lang?

Glancing at the unconvinced expressions of the three people, Zhao Hongrun knew that Wu Ji's words made the three Zongwei feel uncomfortable.

It may be in Wu Ji's opinion that Zong Wei is a group of pampered princely guards, but the fact is not, Zong Wei Yu Lin Lang can be called the most rigorous and demanding training in the Wei State, even if the training volume of the six battalions of the garrison is not enough to compare with Zong Wei Yu Lin Lang.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun smiled and said, "Wu Ji, don't underestimate Zong Wei." ”

After that, he turned his head to Chong Zhao and the others and said: "Seed Zhao, go back and give General Wu (Ji) a drill list for your Zongwei, and give this king the same training as the Zongwei, and drill the merchant and water army!" ”

Hearing this, he glanced at Wu Ji, who was a little inexplicable, and smiled maliciously.

However, Zhu Gui and He Miao frowned, and the latter hesitated and said, "Your Highness, will it be too ruthless?" If you ask for the Shang Shui Army like we ask Zong Wei Yu Lin Lang, I am afraid that the soldiers and generals of the Shang Shui Army will complain. ”

"It doesn't matter, as long as the three of you lead by example."

After that, Zhao Hongrun looked at Wu Ji and the four of them, Zhu Gui, and He Miao, and said: "The Shangshui Army is the army of this king's descendants, and this king's requirements for you are very simple. Get stronger! The stronger, the better! …… This king wants a strong army that can defeat any soldier in the world! ”

Enough to defeat any soldier in the world?

Wu Ji looked surprised, as if he didn't expect Zhao Hongrun to have such ambitions.

After seeing Wu Ji, Zhao Hongrun summoned Ying Kang of the Green Crows again, and asked Gao Kuo to stay by Ying Kang's side for a while.

After all, Gao Kuo is very good at exploring and analyzing intelligence, so Zhao Hongrun plans to let Gao Kuo be in charge of the affairs of the green crows and the black crows in the future.

As for Wei Jiao, Lu Mu, Mu Qing, Zhou Pu, and Chu Heng, Wei Jiao, as the current head of the sect, must stay by Zhao Hongrun's side all the time to fulfill Shen Yu's previous duties, and Chu Heng, although he has the most excellent force among the sect guards, this guy is really a little stupid, to put it bluntly, this thing is really a tendon, no matter where he puts it, Zhao Hongrun will not rest assured.

What's more, Chu Heng accepted Shen Yu's instructions before leaving, and most likely would not leave.

As for Lu Mu and Zhou Pu, they are the most reassuring of Zhao Hongrun and Shen Yu, the former head of the Zongwei, who are stable and alert.

Especially Zhou Pu, don't look at him as unattractive, but in fact he is a talent who is both civil and military, and can do it no matter what position he puts in.

Therefore, Zhao Hongrun is not worried about the future of Lu Mu and Zhou Pu.

As for Mu Qing, as the youngest and most frivolous Zong Wei among Zong Wei, and the most compatible with him Zhao Hongrun, unless Mu Qing himself proposes it, Zhao Hongrun does not want to sharpen his character for the time being.

After arranging all this, Zhao Hongrun finally set off for Yanling to fulfill the responsibilities he shouldered when he went south. (To be continued.) )
