When Ling Xia and Xia Ning'er returned to the yamen of the governor's mansion, they saw ten strong men in armor sitting in the council hall, these people were the commanders of the military aircraft of the provinces, and they were all ordered to come to meet the new governor.

Looking at the ten commanders of the military aircraft in front of him, Ling Xia frowned slightly, although it was early morning at the moment, some of these people were covered in alcohol, and some of them were full of rouge, except for the one who sat at the end who was more sober, the rest of them were in a daze.

"Meet the princess, meet the colt." After saying hello, everyone sat on their chairs and was silent, and in a blink of an eye, some people were plucking their ears, some were napping with their heads up, some were resting with their eyes slightly closed, and some were rubbing their eyes.

"Looking at your appearance, it seems that you haven't rested well, is it that there have been too many things in the disaster area recently, and all the generals are busy with disaster relief and haven't rested well?" Ling Xia said this with a depressed face.

"No, the rest is good, but I drank high last night."

"No matter how much there is going on in the disaster area, what does it have to do with us?"

"We are all soldiers, what does it have to do with disaster relief?"

"That's right, disaster relief is a matter for the yamen and the three shifts to catch fast."

"That's right, disaster relief is a matter of errand and fast hunting, and we don't mix it."

"I drank a little bit in the restaurant yesterday, and the wine and food in that place are really good."

After listening to Ling Xia's words, the commanders of the general army present complained one after another, but it was better for them not to speak, and after hearing their conversation clearly, Xia Ning'er couldn't help frowning: "Drunk and dreaming all day long, don't you have anything else to do?" ”

"Something else?" Zhao Qiangjun, the chief soldier of Dingyi Province, laughed at himself helplessly: "We people are nominally the commanders of the military aircraft and the second-rank military positions of the imperial court, but in fact? In fact, I can't even compare to a division commander.

Let's take our battle guards in Dingyi Province as an example, there are less than 20,000 people in one province, and they are all placed in the Five Cities Terracotta Mansion, responsible for helping those fast hunters to inspect the safety of the five cities.

There are 30,000 troops under the command of a division commander, but I, the commander of the general army, only have 20,000 under my command, and in this way, I am still suppressed by Governor Cao and the damned Governor Chen, who only pay 20,000 people, and the rest are gone.

Made, I've put in thousands of gold coins myself over the years, you go and see, the battle guards in Dingyi Province have forgotten that they are soldiers, and they don't want to be soldiers anymore when they mess with the trappers all day long. ”

"Your Dingyi Province is good, be content, at least your battle guards still have their own big battalions, at least there are independent training grounds, you look at our Dingyi Province's war guards, there is not even a special camp, I am now borrowing a place from the Yamen of the Prosecution Department."

"What are you muttering about? Just the two of you are sad, you two are good, how about paying back the funds, our Dingsan Province has been cut off from military salaries by the governor's yamen since five years ago, and I have made trouble with Governor Cao several times, but the result is useless. ”

"If you want to say miserable, the battle guards in our Dingshi Province are the worst, no matter how difficult you are, you still have a name, what about us? Even our establishment has been abolished, and Governor Pei wants to follow the example of other civilian territories, and intends to ban the war guards in Dingshi Province. ”

Hearing the conversations of these commanders of the general army, Ling Xia gradually heard some meanings, they have been suppressed by the governors and governors of the provinces all these years, and they are depressed, so they can only borrow wine all day to drown their sorrows.

After looking around, Ling Xia turned his gaze to the last person, who was a big man with a dark appearance, a body like an iron tower, and a full face, seeing that person looked disdainful of everyone, Ling Xia couldn't help but be a little curious, and asked, "This general seems to have some different opinions." ”

"I don't have any different opinions, I just think they are a few tergents." When the words fell, the man stood up and clasped his fists at Ling Xia and Xia Ning'er and said, "My name is Niu Kaishan, and I am the commander of the general army of Dingbi Province. ”

Speaking of this, seeing that the people around him were glaring at him, Niu Kaishan was stunned, and retorted angrily: "What are you all staring at me for?" Am I wrong? You are the grandson, so you are being pinched by others.

If you want to talk about being suppressed, let me ask, which of you here is not suppressed? My governor didn't give me a single copper coin of military salary, and the little military salary given by the military department was withheld by the governor's palace yamen, and the local yamen did not allocate money.

I asked them for money, and the governor wanted to dismantle our battle guards and give the camp to someone else, but what should I do? I will occupy that camp and will not let anyone come, and if anyone dares to come to the camp to take my territory, I will send troops to beat them.

Didn't they give us money? Okay, then I'll go and earn my own money, I let the soldiers go to the Yellow River to fish, let the soldiers go to the mountains to cut trees, and I also rented two boats to escort the boats on the Yellow River.

It was by selling fish, selling trees, and escorting ships that I fed the soldiers under my command, and although I did not earn much money, it was enough to pay military salaries, purchase grain and grass, and allocate military uniforms, and as long as the military headquarters did not dismiss us for a day, I would not give up for a day.

Looking at the entire Ziyan Territory, we still have a reorganized corps of battle guards, we not only have the establishment, but also the combat effectiveness, after this earthquake, all your provinces have riots, but no one in our province dares to make trouble. ”

"Okay, aren't you good enough for the general soldier? You have great ability, we have small ability, and none of us can compare to you, so it's okay. Niu Kaishan's words touched the sensitive nerves of many people, and many commanders of the general army did not like to listen to them.

Seeing that everyone was about to quarrel while talking, Ling Xia hurriedly stopped everyone and asked everyone to calm down, maybe it was because Ling Xia was named the number one warrior in the world, or Ling Xia had a military background, so these commanders were quite obedient to Ling Xia's words.

Ling Xia also felt it, although these chief soldiers were a little depressed, they belonged to two styles with those governors and political envoys, and these people were not hostile to themselves and Xia Ning'er's arrival, maybe this had a direct relationship with the civil and military camp.

As we all know, Ling Xia was canonized by the emperor as the first warrior in the world, and he himself was a military general with a military background, so he was naturally included in the scope of the general's influence, so when Ling Xia arrived, the civil officials expressed resistance, and the generals agreed to belong.

Ling Xia also clearly understood this, so he didn't see it either: "I have something that needs our battle guards to intervene, but I don't know how many battle guards there are in our territory province?" A few of you report the soldiers and horses in your hands and see how many people there are in total. ”
