Chapter 333: Breaking through the Collapse of the Sky Liu Guoneng
When the official army recruited An, when it was still a collapse, there were tens of thousands of horses in more than a dozen battalions under Liu Guoneng, but it was good to have 10,000 people who were really recruited, and the rest were taken away by Zuo Liangyu and He Renlong under various names.
Think about it, but if Liukou is recruited, no matter what status you had in the peasant army in the past, don't think that you can be an officer and soldier in peace, and Liu Guoneng also heard a piece of disheartening news.
Except for himself, the rest of the rebel leaders who had no objection were all dead.
This is not at the hands of the official army, because Liu Guoneng is different from Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai, in order to help the imperial court and the brothers who once married Jinlan, they have become enemies with all walks of life.
However, if you can maintain your original strength, at least you can still protect yourself, but the problem is here, leaders like Liu Guoneng who have been recruited plan to follow the imperial court, but they are all assigned to an inconsequential official position.
In order to cooperate with the orders of the imperial court, the original old battalion under his command was also dismantled and dismantled, and there were no complaints, but the officials and soldiers of the five provinces still looked down on them in their hearts, and Luo Rucai, Zhang Xianzhong and others resurged, and they were even more wary of them.
Up to now, there is not much military power left in everyone's hands, and when they are sought revenge by their former brothers, they don't even have the ability to resist, and I heard that they all died in battle.
Although the Liu family is a big family in the Guide Mansion, no one has any official status, and no matter how large the scale is, it is the nature of the local power, so it has always been bullied by the official family.
So when Liu Guoneng received the news from the Shandong army that the Shandong army was willing to take in his own troops, he actually sighed in his heart.
He only hopes that the other party can be different from Zuo Liangyu, or better than Zuo Liangyu, and leave some henchmen to save his life, he always feels that Li Zicheng will not spare himself.
"Guerrilla Liu, go in, the big marshal wants to talk to you alone."
Early this morning, Liu Guoneng, who had just received the news, came to the military camp located in the city of Kaifeng Mansion, and when he heard the words of the soldiers in front of the door, he took a deep breath and strode in.
When he entered, Liu Guoneng saw at a glance the person standing on the northernmost side with his hands behind his back, and there was only this person in the tent except himself, so naturally it was the Shandong general soldier.
Although he didn't see his face, Liu Guoneng could still see it from his back, and knew that the handsome man in front of him was a young man, and he was afraid that he was around twenty-six or seventeen years old, so he was a little surprised at that time.
In the past, when the sky was still falling, he was also one of the thirteen in the Rongyang Conference, and the kings and leaders of all parties had seen it, all of them were strong men who were nearly forty years old, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, how did such a young man control the entire Shandong army.
The respectful sergeants outside were all in good spirits, and they seemed to be more elite than their old battalions.
Before coming, Liu Guoneng naturally had to do his homework, since he was going to be under the jurisdiction of the Shandong Army in the future, he had to figure out the internal division system, but he was a little surprised when he knew this.
The title of General Qian has long been rotten in other places, but it is not the case in the Shandong Army, and it is not easy to sit in this position, which is basically the role of leading a battalion in the regular soldiers.
The rank of the garrison is either the general who leads the government in the regular army, or the deputy battalion officer in the soldiers, the former is a person with a very high status in the government, and the latter is the backbone of the elite, which may be corrected at any time.
The four generals in the Shandong army are the most prominent in addition to the general soldiers, but except for the deputy general soldier Huang Yang, the other three are also the titles of generals in the imperial court, only one level higher than themselves.
Liu Guoneng, who knew everything, actually came with a flattered mind, and asked why this Shandong general soldier wanted to give himself such a high position.
He hurriedly knelt down towards the young man at the front, and while reporting his name and place of origin, he apologized for what he had done outside Kaifeng City with He Renlong some time ago.
However, if it is an ordinary person, at this time, he usually has to shift the responsibility to He Renlong and others, but Liu Guoneng did not mention this, but kept saying that he was obsessed with his mind and deserved to die.
“... I only ask for the grace of the marshal outside the law, so that I can give him a chance to mend his ways..."
Wang Zheng has heard a lot of these words, and ordinary people are recruited to say this, but Liu Guineng's attitude in his words can also hear some sincerity.
Liu Guoneng has seen the form of Zhao'an once, if it is according to the common routine of the government, at this time, the Shandong general soldier is nothing more than to say some words of the emperor Shengming.
However, Liu Guoneng knelt on the ground with his head down, but listened to Wang Zheng say:
"The Liu family was originally a local noble family in Defu, but because they were slandered by the Shangqiu Zhixian and the Lu family, they were labeled as traitors, and Ben Shuai has already investigated."
Listening to the other party talk about this, Liu Guoneng was puzzled in his eyes first, and then there was a deep surprise, and then he saw Wang Zheng smiling at him, and said gently:
"Now there are many wars in Henan and other places, and the war in Liaodong is tight, so this commander has already mentioned you as the commander of the Shandong Army stationed in Kaifeng Mansion, and all the soldiers and horses in your department are the regular soldiers of the Shandong Army."
Speaking of this, Wang Zheng took a few steps forward to help him up, and said:
"As for the Shangqiu Governor and the Lu family, Ben Shuai has already informed Governor Li and the Guide Prefect, and I believe that there will be corresponding dispositions in the near future."
After reacting, Liu Guoneng already had tears in his eyes, and he kowtowed desperately, and said with a crying voice:
"Great handsomeness and great grace, a certain Liu Guoneng will not dare to forget it in this life!"
Wang Zhengfang's words have been made clear enough, Liu Guoneng is not a fool, and the Shandong army in Kaifeng Mansion has no regular soldiers at all except for the twelve battalions of soldiers led by Wang Zhengqin.
Appointing himself as the commander of the Kaifeng army, that is, handing over the military affairs to himself, the Liu family will also re-break ground in Guide Mansion under the support of the Shandong Army, and gradually become a strong party.
"Commander Liu, what are you doing, hurry up, the Shandong army did not kneel during the war, and you will have to learn more military etiquette with the rest of the brothers in the future."
Wang Zheng smiled and said a few words to him, turned around with his back hand, and said lightly:
"Now that the war in Liaodong is tight, it is expected that Ben Shuai will not stay in Henan for a long time, and then all the things in Kaifeng Mansion can be handed over to Commander Liu, and also, on the Li side of Qixian County, you need to run more."
Liu Guoneng has already heard of the matter of the Li family in Qixian County, and it is actually the relative of Li Yan of the Zuo Military Council of the Shandong Military Council, according to the news that came out some time ago, the affairs of the local gentry in Kaifeng Mansion are also the decisions of the Li family, so they naturally need to negotiate more.
The Shandong army is a guest army ordered by the governor Yang Sichang to aid and suppress, as long as there are still people in this Henan territory, they can still be in the name of aiding and suppressing, but this head can't do much.
It's like a farming farm, many things need to be carried out secretly in the name of the gentry, which is very troublesome.
In the following months, due to the mutual assistance of Li and Liu Guoneng in Qixian County, and the addition of many people from Shandong, several farms were soon built in the Kaifeng area.
These farms were built in the name of the Li family, but inside they were still controlled by Wang Zheng.
