After Duan Yingya became a military envoy, he moved to Yunzhou, and he had to take away two-thirds of the Qing Navy's strong military horses, about 3,000 people, and who went and who didn't go among the 4,000 garrisons in Gushan Town, it was really a headache, Duan Yingya knew that this matter was difficult to do, and he knew that he was just a puppet in name, so as soon as he received the order, he immediately set off to report to Yunzhou, and threw this hot stone to Li Mao.

The new Qing Navy marching Sima is Li Shigu's confidant Li Changshan's cousin Li Zi'an, his first task as a marching Sima is to split the Qing Navy, and the Qing Navy is divided into pieces to see his credit, Li Zi'an has no intersection with the Qing Navy and Yu Hualong before this, and he naturally has no scruples when he starts, and he is very happy, but he is not a reckless man, and even if he is not careful, it is very likely to cause a mutiny.

Among all the current high-ranking generals of the Qing Navy, only Li Mao seems to be trustworthy, so the first person Li Zi'an visited after the new official took office was Li Mao, and the two talked all night, and they were in a very happy mood, and the problems that plagued the hearts of the two had come to naught when they cherished each other in the morning. Li Mao and Li Zi'an agreed that Li Mao would first draw up the remaining men, and then Li Zi'an, the new marching Sima, would specifically divide them, and all the problems encountered in the division process would be solved by Li Zi'an, and Li Mao would secretly assist.

It boils down to one sentence: Li Zi'an sings blackface and is a villain, Li Mao sings red-faced, and is a good person, and the two should work together to sing the drama of splitting up the Qing Navy.

Who to keep and who not to keep is still a difficult question. Li Mao didn't think about this tea and dinner, watching him anxious day and night, his lips foaming, Xiaoru couldn't help but smile: "What's so difficult about this?" Keep your own brothers behind, let the others be taken by lot, and those who disobey will be subject to military law. You are a suffocation envoy, just take care of your own affairs, and the others have military envoys, marching horses, and Yu Hou, what do you want to do? Besides, you are a new official, and the two generals Li are also new officials, if you want to set fires, people are waiting to set fires. ”

Li Mao said: "The words are not rough, and there is some truth. It depends on you who can stay and who can't. ”

Xiao Ru was encouraged, she was in a good mood, she blinked and thought about it for a while, and replied crisply: "Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang Qi, Brother Xia Chun and Feng Bu must be kept, Qingmo and Divine Power need to be said, other generals, General Zhu had better let him go, Zhang Dingfang must go, and let the others draw lots." ”

Li Mao said with a smile: "Why did General Zhu want to leave, why did Zhang Dingfang have to go." Xiaoru said: "General Zhu is General Yu's confidant, if he doesn't leave, you ...... Hee-hee, you know. As for Zhang Dingfang, I heard that he has a bad temper, he likes to drink, he gets drunk as soon as he gets drunk, he goes home drunk and goes crazy, beats his wife, his wife is so pitiful, he kicked and broke his ribs twice last year, I also heard that he took his daughter out to play, and he didn't help her daughter when she fell, let her get up by herself, such a heart is too hard, impersonal, how can you stay by your side. ”

Li Mao didn't expect Xiaoru to say such a big string of truths, and he was impressed for a while, so he asked, "How old is Zhang Dingfang's daughter?" Xiaoru said: "Five-year-old, five-year-old child is just when his parents hold him like a baby, how can he bear it?" Li Mao said: "It shouldn't be a problem for a five-year-old child to walk, falling is definitely an accident, if she falls because of herself, I think she should be allowed to remember this lesson." ”

Xiao Ru looked at Li Mao in amazement, her eyes suddenly turned red, and her tears were dotted. Li Mao asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Stretching out his hand to help her, Xiao Ru hid back, Li Mao suddenly remembered that Xiao Ru's father died when she was still in infancy, and her mother took her to remarry someone else, and her stepfather was an alcoholic, often beating and scolding her mother and daughter, lacking what to think, Xiao Ru, who lacked father's love since childhood, was thirsting for father's love in her bones. Li Mao slapped his forehead fiercely and scolded: "Look at my pig brain, make a joke, let people take it seriously." You're right, a person who is so hard-hearted to his daughter is indeed wonderful, and he must be let go. ”

Xiaoru turned her worries into joy, threw herself into Li Mao's arms, and cried whining.

Xiao Ru's suggestion seems to be child's play, but it contains great wisdom, and once the seemingly complicated things are grasped, they will be solved. Zhu Zhenyuan is Yu Hualong's confidant and the most powerful supporter of the clerk in Gushan Town, he is in Gushan Town, Li Mao has one more constraint, and it is naturally in Li Mao's interests to support Zhu Zhenyuan. As for Zhang Dingfang, whether to go or not does not affect the overall situation, but for the generals, he is good at drinking, and he can't control his emotions when he is drunk, so it's good if he doesn't stick to people.

Li Mao has no friendship with Zhang Dingfang, and there is no psychological burden on him, but Zhu Zhenyuan is different, the two still formed a fighting friendship when they crusaded against Shang Helai, although this friendship has not gone through the precipitation of the years, it is not deep, but it is not worth losing a friend because of this matter. Li Mao instructed Xiaoru to prepare a family banquet, and asked Mo Qi Shentong to deliver an invitation to the western military camp and invite Zhu Zhenyuan to come to the house for a banquet.

Zhu Zhenyuan happily went to the banquet, the accompanying guards carried a freshly beaten tender deer, the wine and food were put on the table, Zhu Zhenyuan saluted Li Mao first, and Zhu Zhenyuan's cheeks were a little red after drinking three bowls, Li Mao saw the opportunity and said: "The marshal ordered that the Qing Navy should be moved to Yunzhou, and the garrison should also be divided into two......

Before Li Mao's words could be finished, he was interrupted by Zhu Zhenyuan, Zhu Zhenyuan swallowed a sip of wine, and said with a red face: "I just have something to ask you, let my brother go, I can't stay in Gushan anymore." ”

Li Mao exclaimed: "What does this mean, am I a person who can't tolerate people?" ”

Zhu Zhenyuan laughed and said: "You and Wen Sima are both good men with big stomachs, but unfortunately they shouldn't be in the same place, I won't say much if they are superfluous, let me go, we will still be brothers in the future." Zhu Zhenyuan drank a glass of wine and was relieved. He thought about it for a long time on the issue of staying or going, and after weighing it left and right, he was still determined to leave, Wen Cheng was the person he had always respected, Li Mao was the person he respected now, from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to have conflicts with either party, but if he stayed in Gushan, he was afraid that he would inevitably be caught in the whirlpool in the future and it would be difficult to deal with himself.

Li Mao invited him to the banquet, and he was very happy, which showed that Li Mao did not meet him, but wanted to solve the problem of his stay in a peaceful way, Li Mao didn't want to lose his friend, why would he be willing? Now that the words are clear, Zhu Zhenyuan, who felt very relaxed, got drunk after a while, and after getting drunk, he shouted that he wanted to go to "Loulan Pavilion" to play, Li Mao couldn't persuade him, so he had to let Qingmo accompany him.

Qingmo came back early on the morning of the second day, walked staggeringly, yawning and rubbing his eyes, and saw Li Mao changing into his practice clothes and carrying a bow and walking briskly as if flying to the backyard. It's so fierce, I can't do it. When Li Mao heard this, he stopped, turned around, kicked the little guy's buttocks, and shouted: "Look at your cowardice, how many did you call last night?" Qingmo once spent the night in Loulan Pavilion, and Li Mao criticized him severely when he found out, and since then, this little guy has reined in a lot. Eating Li Mao's drink, Qingmo was excited, and he woke up.

"No, absolutely not, I'll help me call the girl for wine."

"That's really hard for you, why don't you take the time to call one for yourself?" Li Mao turned around and continued to walk towards the backyard, his footsteps were like flying, and Xiaoru had to trot to keep up.

"This ...... Hi, how do you say that, am I that kind of person? Okay, well, I've made mistakes before, but haven't I changed them all, really, completely changed my ways. ”

Seeing Xiaoru pursing her lips and snickering on the side, Qingmo hurriedly explained: "It's really not, I don't believe you go and ask Zheng Xiaozhang." ”

Li Mao stood still: "He also went last night?" ”

Qingmo said: "Go, General Zhu is so drunk and ruthless, it costs twenty times to call a bottle of wine, how can I bring so much money, so I have to call him." Li Mao said: "It seems that you are quite familiar with him." Qingmo smiled: "It's not familiar, but this person is a good hand, and his tone is even tighter." I thought he was a rare talent, so I took him with me. ”

Zheng Xiaozhang was a Confucian official in the city bureau, and if there was an envoy, there would be a shogunate, and the name of the shogunate was similar, and the Confucian official was a low-level position in the shogunate, but the things he was in charge of were not necessarily dispensable. Zheng Xiaozhang was recommended to Li Mao by Zhang Xuan, who was already in his thirties when he entered the scene, and after a period of time, Li Mao had already discovered that this person was very tight-mouthed, and he was able to do things safely and competently, so he entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, and now he is in charge of the internal atlas files and small treasury of the city bureau, and there has never been any mistake since he took over.

Needless to say, the small treasury of the city bureau has tens of thousands of dollars in and out every day, and it is enough to make people impressed. Li Mao's new envoy was at the time of employing people, and he was thinking about the candidate to build the shogunate in the past two days. ”

Qingmo said: "Transferring him to be a Confucius is overkill, in my opinion, this person has the talent of a general, and leading 100,000 troops can definitely sweep the world." Li Mao kicked again on this little guy's ass and shouted, "You didn't wake up." ”

said that he left Qingmo and went to the backyard to practice, Xiao Ru pursed her lips and smiled, made a grimace at Qingmo, and followed closely with small steps. After the rotation system was made a choke envoy, Li Mao should move to the military academy and the military envoy to live, but because Yu Hualong's family had just moved out and the house was still being painted and repaired, he temporarily lived in the original township.
