Chapter 106: Conflict

An Yi didn't expect that the imperial court appointed him as a garrison general in Chengdu, and he didn't expect that Zeng Ziren was actually the new acting commander.

"Sure enough, as you expected, Zhu Zongchen couldn't wait to support Zeng Ziren, a puppet, to the top position, but he thought he would give him an errand as a garrison general, but he didn't expect that he was really willing to put down his book, and even threw out the black yarn from the third-grade master."

He said to Jiang Ruyue beside him.

After Zeng Fu knelt down to receive the holy decree, he and Meng Qi rushed back to Songling Village non-stop, preparing to mobilize the army to enter Chengdu Green Camp.

Jiang Ruyue smiled and said: "It seems that this Zhu Dabu political envoy is also very weak about Zeng Ziren's ability, but he is used as a knife handle to control power, and Brother An, you are the blade in front of this." ”

"So, there will be another war soon."

Jiang Ruyue nodded, agreed, and then said, "But I think this is also an opportunity. ”

An Yi looked at him and smiled,

"I think the same way, since Zeng Ziren is a puppet, let him make his label more obvious."

.............

After the battle of Huling, the Chengdu Green Battalion can be said to have suffered heavy losses, and the three battalions of the Chinese Army, the Guards, and the Pioneer originally added up to a small 5,000 men, but now there are less than 1,000 people left.

Jiang Yun's Chinese military camp was almost completely wiped out,

The pioneer battalion was second, and after two fierce battles on the southern slope of the first line of heaven and the southern slope of the Fox Mountains, there were less than 300 horsemen.

The Chinese military camp can be regarded as stained with the light of the old commander, with a total of more than 700 sergeants, reduced by one-half.

The arrival of comfort can be said to be an infusion of fresh blood in Chengdu Green Camp, but he does not intend to be a good man who dedicates himself for free.

It's just that the Chengdu Green Battalion is different from his regimental training battalion, which belongs to the jurisdiction of the Chengdu Command Command Envoy Division, and the formed troops under the Governor's Office of the Five Armies have restrictions on the number and size.

This means that he can't be like in the regimental training camp, according to the number of his three or five battalions is not a big deal, at present, any changes in the three battalions under the Chengdu Garrison Office need to be submitted to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies for approval.

And the number of people in each battalion should not exceed three thousand.

An Yi could only divide his regimental training battalion into two with a policy and countermeasures, and let Lin Muzhi replace Zhao Jizong as the commander of the guard battalion, and all the 3,000 forward battalions under his original command belonged to him, plus the original men and horses, there were more than 3,700 people.

Let Meng Qi be the deputy commander of the pioneer battalion, and the 3,000 cavalry of the original Xiao cavalry battalion all belong to him.

Pei Zhenfeng, the commander of the pioneer battalion, was originally a cavalry general, and An Yi also fought side by side with him, and felt that this person's character was acceptable, so he intended to let him take Meng Qi, who was also the commander of the cavalry.

The vast majority of the pioneer battalion of more than 3,000 people must have obeyed Meng Qi's orders, and the nominal hand was always left to Pei Zhenfeng, otherwise the depressed Pei Jiang would always have to die old in advance.

In the end, Jin Mingyin, like Meng Qi, became the deputy general of the Chinese military camp, but this Chinese military camp was changed to a firearms battalion by comfortable people, and Jiang Yun, the general manager, was also a person who attached great importance to firearms, and he could be regarded as going the right way with Jin Mingyin.

The remaining more than 6,000 horses are still assigned to the Huayang County regimental training camp, with Jiang Shang as the regimental training envoy, but they are no longer stationed in Songling Village, but are stationed together next to the Chinese military camp outside the city.

When he reported to the imperial court, he still reported it with three battalions of 9,000 people, but in fact, his three battalions combined amounted to more than 10,000 people.

The garrison of the green battalion is not like the border army, all the men and horses are gathered in the city, but with each battalion as a unit, stationed around Chengdu.

Therefore, when everyone meets, they don't want to be so easy in front of the camp as in the regimental training camp, and they need to give orders in advance.

It was precisely at this point that An Yi decided that all the chief and deputy generals would gather in his garrison office before taking office.

An Xin was busy taking the sergeant to take care of the garrison office that had changed its owner, and she was very happy in her heart, partly because her brother was the fourth-grade official of the court, which was considered to be a wish of her father.

The other part is because I finally don't want to live in the simple wooden house in Songling Village, and the garrison office is only a cup of tea away from the old house in Anfu, and there is nothing more comfortable than being able to live in my own house.

An Yi was dressed in a tiger supplement official robe, sitting in the hall with a big horn, and all the chief and deputy generals of the Chengdu Garrison Office were sitting around him.

This hall was the house where An Yi first came to Chengdu and asked for food and salary.

An Yi glanced at the people in the room,

"Are you all here?"

Everyone nodded in response, but Lin Muzhi arched his hand towards An Yi and replied a little apologetically: "Lord Qiyu, Zhao Jizong, the deputy general of the guard battalion, has not arrived, he will ...... went to Zeng's mansion to congratulate Zeng Ziren on his promotion. ”

He thought that Anyi would be furious with Zhao Jizong, who was not present at the first meeting,

However, this is not the case.

An Yi smiled at him disapprehantly, and then continued to ask the people around him:

"Is there anyone else here who wants to go to congratulate?"

As soon as this sentence came out, it caused laughter from everyone present,

An Yi pressed his hand against them again, and said: "Don't think I'm joking, I've always been very serious about this, some things have to be chosen, and being caught in the middle will only make everyone work together in the future, so if you want to change now, it's still too late." ”

When the words came out of his mouth, no one got up because of this, and the hall was silent for a while.

An Yi smiled and nodded, and made a gesture towards Jin Mingyin by the door, motioning for him to close the hall door,

"Okay, since you don't have to congratulate you anymore, then everyone here is your own people, and they are all my comfortable brothers. Since we are all brothers, there are some things I will say bluntly. ”

He paused for a moment and continued: "Thanks to the wrong love of the imperial court, the post of garrison general appointed in Xiachengdu, plus the regimental training battalion is counted together, a total of four subordinate battalions, I am not Xia Ang, the four battalions are treated equally no matter how much people say in my eyes, and they will not engage in some short-term pay and less food behind their backs. ”

"In the same way, everyone here will be the general manager, deputy general, from Huayang County, from Jiangning Village, from Songling Village, or from Chengdu Green Camp later, in my eyes they are all the same, you only have one name, that is Chengdu Garrison Green Battalion, if anyone is in my place to form a faction, in the officialdom to teach each other privately, on the battlefield to wait and see, one is counted as one, I comfortably promise to hang your head on the flagpole of the Green Battalion."

When An Yi said this, his face was always smiling, harmless to humans and animals, but the people present had a serious face, and no one felt that he was just talking.

"Last point, I said in the regimental training camp, I will repeat it today, there is only one general of the Chengdu garrison green battalion, that is, I am comfortable, my orders will not allow anyone to disobey, I let you hold on, and you will never be allowed to withdraw from your positions without any reason. Similarly, I asked you to retreat, even if the emperor comes, don't pay attention to it, my order is the only effective military order for the entire garrison green battalion, understand? ”

"Got it! My lord! ”

Everyone responded in unison.

An Yi looked at them and nodded with satisfaction,

"That's all I have to say, is there anything else you guys have to say?"

He picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.

Jiang Yun opened his mouth first and asked, "My lord, will the Chinese military camp be dominated by firearms in the future?" ”

An Yi put down the teacup and nodded, "Yes, when I first came to Chengdu to borrow grain from you, Mr. Jiang had a unique insight and cognition of firearms, which had a profound impact on me. ”

Then he pointed to Jin Mingyin and said: "When we fought side by side in Fox Ridge, those powerful new firearms were from Jin Mingyin's hands, and putting the two of you together is to combine your tactics with Mingyin's ideas, and truly make firearms a force that can be applied to the battlefield and cannot be underestimated." ”

"And Meng Qi."

An Yi turned his head to Meng Qi who was sitting on the side again,

"Pei has seen the cavalry that always comes and goes like the wind, I have seen it in Fox Ridge, just like a sharp knife on the battlefield, which can cut the enemy's chest and plunge it into their heart anytime and anywhere. Regarding the tactics and tactics of cavalry, you have to think more about Pei Jiang's advice. ”

Meng Qi nodded, then stood up and arched his hand towards Pei Zhenfeng: "In the future, Meng Qi will learn more like the general, and he will always give advice." ”

Pei Zhenfeng's praised old face turned red, and he hurriedly got up to hold Meng Qi's arm, and said modestly: "My lord has won the award, let's just learn from each other and ask for advice, how can I give advice." ”

An Yi saw that Pei Zhenfeng was quite "up-to-earth", and his face was full of joy.

Then he said to everyone present: "If I am not mistaken, there will soon be a decree from the imperial court for us to conquer the Five Grain Sect, so I hope you will not relax and be diligent in training." ”

"Yes!"

"Alright, let's disperse."

Everyone came out, and Jiang Ruyue walked in with a smile on her face.

"Lord An's official robe is very decent."

An Yi smiled and waved his hand at him, "Brother Jiang, don't be funny." ”

"That's right!"

As if he remembered something, he pointed to the door and said, "I was in a hurry when I came, and I saw a lot of gorgeously dressed people coming in and out, and they came to look for me?" ”

Jiang Ruyue responded: "Yes, they are all merchants and shopkeepers in Chengdu, and when the new officials take office, they must always say something, according to them, this is called 'filial piety silver', and when the time comes, they will be able to do not panic." ”

"Yes."

An Yi chuckled and said: "Spend money to buy peace, you ask An Xin to take inventory, and send someone to send it to the directors of each concierge, we are new to the house, so let them not panic." ”

"Okay, I see."

As she spoke, Jiang Ruyue was about to turn around and leave.

"Wait."

Just as he was about to take a step, he was stopped by An Yi again, because he suddenly remembered a conversation with Liu Siyi before, and also mentioned the matter of filial piety to silver.

An Yi remembered that she asked her why she wanted to pay filial piety silver, Liu Siyi teased him and said, if you become a Chengdu garrison one day, I will not pay it.

"What's wrong? Adults, but is there anything else? ”

Jiang Ruyue asked him suspiciously,

"Do you want to see if there is any filial piety silver sent by Jiangyun Tower?"

Jiang Ruyue thought about it in his mind, he really didn't have too many detailed impressions of the gift bags and silver tickets piled up on the table,

"I didn't pay attention to this, or I'll look for it now."

An Yi said "um" lightly, and then gave a special explanation to Jiang Ruyue,

"If you don't see the filial piety silver of Qianyun Tower, you must tell me, and I will collect it myself."
