Wei Boyu followed the guards of the Regent's Mansion into the main hall with trepidation, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhao Ziliang sitting under the plaque of Zhengda Guangming to deal with official business, and the brush in his hand was writing quickly and quickly.

"Chen Wei Boyu meets the regent!" Wei Boyu walked to the middle of the main hall and immediately bowed down with his fists.

Zhao Ziliang didn't look up, continued to write, and said in his mouth: "No courtesy, you wait a minute, come here, show Wei Boyu a seat, and serve tea!" ”

Wei Boyu and Zhao Ziliang did not have much contact, during the Anshi Rebellion, he only met Zhao Ziliang twice, did not get along, but Zhao Ziliang's reputation was like thunder, but he did not know his personality and affairs, Zhao Ziliang's style made him feel very strange and fresh, he had seen many superior officials, generals, and even emperors, who had never used this way to receive subordinates.

"King Xie!" Wei Boyu bowed and stepped aside, waiting for the guards to bring tea to the chair before he sat down cautiously and drank tea slowly.

Half an hour later, Zhao Ziliang finished processing all the official documents on the table before putting down the brush and getting up and walking over.

At this time, Wei Boyu had already drunk three cups of tea, and he had already held a soak of urine in his stomach, but he couldn't get up rudely to solve it, so he could only endure and continue to sit, and when he saw Zhao Ziliang coming over, he immediately stood up and saluted as if he had been amnestied.

Zhao Ziliang pressed his hand, signaled that he didn't have to get up, walked to him and sat down and said, "General Wei, this time the king came to you to discuss something with you. Now it is an eventful autumn, the court is at the time of employing people, this king knows that you are in the Ding worry period, but for the sake of the Tang Dynasty and the people of the world, this king is only afraid that he will take revenge on behalf of His Majesty the emperor, I hope you can understand the difficulties of the court, understand the heart of the king's love and talent! ”

Wei Boyu was a little excited, stood up and hugged his fists and said: "Wang, my mother died, and Weichen was grief-stricken. Now that he wants to give up his filial piety, Weichen is really sad in his heart. But when my mother was alive, I often warned Weichen that since he eats the king's Lu, he must be loyal to the king, since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety are not both, since the king and the court can use Wei Boyu, Weichen is willing to obey the king's dispatch, and then die! Wait for the king's worries to be relieved and then go home to keep filial piety! ”

"Good! If you think so, this king will rest assured! Zhao Ziliang nodded and continued: "The imperial court is about to organize a counterinsurgency army to go to Xiangyang for reinforcements, the Shence Army is one of them, you have been in the Shence Army for the longest time, and you know this army best, this king decided to appoint you as the military envoy of the Shence Army, the former Sinong Shaoqing Bai Xiuqi was transferred to the deputy ambassador of the Shence Army and concurrently served as the right wing of the soldiers and horses, the former Dongchuan Jiedu made Zhang Xiancheng to the left wing of the Shence Army, as for the eunuchs Huo Xianming and Dou Wenchang, let them go back to the palace to serve the emperor, they will neither command the army nor fight, It's too child's play to let them lead the troops, it's best to let them do their jobs! ”

Wei Boyu immediately clenched his fists and said, "Yes, Weichen obeys!" I wonder when the army will set off? ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "Set off in ten days. You have to have a good relationship with Bai Xiuqi and Zhang Xiancheng, and you, as the commander of the Shence Army, will pay attention to uniting your subordinates and paying attention to the way of communication, so that you can give full play to the combat effectiveness of the army! ”

"Yes, yes, Wechen wrote it down!" Wei Boyu agreed, he didn't expect that not only was he not demoted or demoted this time, but he was also promoted from the right-wing soldier to the military envoy.

Zhao Ziliang continued: "There is also the Zhenguo Army with the Shence Army, you must unite and coordinate with the friendly army, do not give birth to suspicions, the enemy is present, everyone must give up prejudices, unity, and unity to the outside world!" During the expedition, you and Luo Yuanguang, the envoy of the Zhenguo Army, must obey the command and dispatch of the commander-in-chief, and must not deliberately delay the implementation of military orders! In this regard, the king will send a prison to supervise the execution of the orders of your superiors, the military discipline of the officers and soldiers in the army, the plotting of rebellion, and the disrespectful remarks against the court. But you don't have to worry, as long as you are loyal to the imperial court, strictly restrain the military discipline of the army, and strictly implement the military orders issued by the commander, the supervision army will not play a role in you, you can only lead the troops to fight, and the supervision army will not interfere or even snatch command with you. ”

"Yes, yes, Weichen understands!" Wei Boyu agreed in fear. Zhao Ziliang sent the supervising army to the army-level army this time, and at the same time greatly restricted the rights of the supervising army, which was different from the previous emperor only sending the supervising army to the side of the border town commander, which strengthened the control of the army, and also weakened the supervision of the supervising army on the general who led the army.

"Okay, you first go to the Shence Army to take up your post, meet with Bai Xiuqi and Zhang Xiancheng, and then send someone to the military department to get the heavy grain, grass and ordnance and equipment back, these days to strengthen drills, strict military discipline, and clean up the disobedient soldiers in the army, especially those veteran oilers, they can't fight, they can't run away first-class, and it's even better to make trouble, leaving these people in the army is harmful and useless! If something goes wrong, this king will ask you, understand? ”

"Understood, Wechen said goodbye first!"

Sent away Wei Boyu, Zhao Ziliang rubbed his temples and got up to think about it, several of the main generals of the Shence Army have been arranged, Zhenguo Army, this time I want to see the performance of Zhenguo Army, if Luo Yuanguang can focus on the overall situation of the court, Zhao Ziliang will not be unable to tolerate him, if Luo Yuanguang takes care of his own selfish interests and is willing to be a lackey of the eunuch party, then don't blame him. As for the Zhenguo Army, Zhao Ziliang's original plan was to remove Luo Yuanguang, but he heard Xuan Shiba's report that Luo Yuanguang was still loyal and brave, although he was Luo Fengxian's adopted son, but his own fame was fought by himself, and he rarely interacted with people in the eunuch party, so Zhao Ziliang decided to observe Luo Yuanguang for a period of time, and see how he performed in this counterinsurgency process.

After getting rid of the Shence Army and the Zhenguo Army, Zhao Ziliang's next thing to consider is who will be the main general of the counterinsurgency army this time, and it will definitely not work to let the generals of the Western Qin Army serve as the main generals, after all, it is not the same system, the generals and soldiers of the Tang Army may reject the generals of the Western Qin Army, which is not conducive to the battle of the army, and the leading generals must be able to convince the generals such as Wei Boyu and Luo Yuanguang.

Regarding the selection of the chief general of the army, Zhao Ziliang decided to listen to the opinions of the officials and staff of the regent palace, and he sent people to find Du Fu, Zheng San, Gao Shang, Li Mi and others for inquiry: "The Shence Army and the Zhenguo Army have been arranged, and now there are only the candidates for the chief general and the supervising army, what do you have to say about this?" ”

Li Mi stood up and arched his hand: "The king, the candidate for the main general, Weichen thinks that the veteran generals of the DPRK and China should be chosen, Wei Boyu and Luo Yuanguang are both unruly people, although the qualifications are not high, but both of them are people with a lot of military exploits, and the general can't control them at all!" ”

Gao Shang also arched his hand and said: "Lord Li is reasonable, there are not many veterans who are idle at home in the capital at present, and there are even fewer veterans who have rich experience and prestige in leading troops, among which Zang Xiyan and Chen Xuanli are the most suitable, both of them have rich experience in combat and commanding troops, and these two people are not among the three factions of the DPRK and China, and the lower officials think that they can appoint General Zang Xiyan as the main general, Chen Xuanli as the deputy general and the supervisor of the army!" ”

Zhao Ziliang thought about it for a while, nodded and agreed: "Yes, it's so decided, and two more officers will be selected from the Regent's Mansion to serve as the supervisors of the Shence Army and the Zhenguo Army respectively, these two people are responsible for Chen Xuanli, and they are also responsible for the Regent's Palace!" Come on, get ready, this king is going to visit Zang Xiyan! ”

In terms of military qualifications, Zang Xiyan and Chen Xuanli are obviously much higher than Zhao Ziliang, as for Guo Ziyi, Wang Sili and others, they are even worse, but Zhao Ziliang's military exploits are far from being comparable to these people.

Zhao Ziliang's arrival surprised Zang Xiyan, he heard the report of the regent that the regent's car was almost at the gate of the mansion, and immediately ordered the family to open the middle door, and the wives, concubines, children, family members and maids all lined up at the door to greet him.

When Zhao Ziliang stepped down from the carriage, Zang Xiyan, who was full of silver hair and white beard, but was still in good shape, immediately came over with his fists and laughed: "I don't know if the regent is coming, the old man is not far away, hahaha······"

Zhao Ziliang hugged his fists and smiled; "I've been in Chang'an for some time, I've been busy dealing with military and political affairs these days, and I really don't have time to doppelganger, I only have time to come over to see my brother today, I'm in a hurry, I disturbed my brother and sister-in-law, etc., and disturbed the peace of your house, I'm really sorry!"

"What does the regent say, come, let's go in, and say while having tea, please!" Zang Xiyan said and immediately pulled Zhao Ziliang and walked towards the mansion.

Zang Xiyan now has no actual official position in the court, only a fictitious title, he has served in the Chang'an army for many years, only General Jin Wuwei has been in the past ten years, and his connections in the armies in the capital are very extensive.

The two were drinking tea and chatting in the hall, and they talked a lot, and Zang Xiyan saw that Zhao Ziliang came over this time and was afraid that he didn't come to see him on a special trip, there must be something, so he asked: "The regent didn't come over to see the old man this time, right?" ”

Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "My brother is as wise as a torch!" Recently, the imperial court sent reinforcements to reinforce Xiangyang, and at the same time crusaded against the rebel general Li Zhongchen's department, Guo Ziyi was sent to Dengzhou by the king, this support army needs a veteran general with rich experience in leading the army to suppress Wei Boyu and Luo Yuanguan, these new young generals, this king wants to come and go, and only the veteran Zang Xiyan has this ability! ”

"Hahaha······" Zang Xiyan laughed, pointed at Zhao Ziliang and said: "It's rare that the regent can praise someone, Zang can be so praised by the regent, I'm afraid this old flesh and blood will be sold to you!" Okay, the old man hasn't led the troops for many years, since the regent has given face and personally invited the old man out of the mountain, I can't say that the old man is going to move his muscles this time, lest those juniors still think that we old guys are dead! ”
