The guards on the left and right are in charge of the city gates, palace gates and imperial city gates, where are the cavalry? Can cavalry guard the gate? Naturally, it can't, but in order to give the defenders the ability to pursue after someone breaks through the gate, the guards on the left and right are equipped with a few war horses for the defenders at each city gate, which are basically not used, but are often used by the captain and the guard on duty to travel between their homes and the city gates.

The corners of Gong Ren's mouth twitched, but he didn't laugh, but replied honestly: "Yes, the last general said it wrong!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said again: "General Ben has read your case file, and the previous general gave you an evaluation of strong martial arts, but his personality is arrogant, not good at words, and it is difficult to get along with his colleagues."

"Yes!" Gong Ren highlighted one word and said: "The temperament has been determined, and it cannot be changed!" ”

"Okay!" Zhao Ziliang shook his head helplessly, and said, "Let me ask you another question, is your wish in this life just to be a riding Cao?" ”

"This ・・・・・・," Gong Ren was speechless.

Zhao Ziliang saw Gong Ren's embarrassed and awkward appearance, and was a little funny, "General Ben, for example, if you are given 5,000 men and horses, you have such a kind of arrogant and cold temperament, do you think you can lead them well?" You are not good at words, and it is a little difficult to give a complete military order, can your subordinates understand your intentions? General Ben has read your case file, you are a collateral descendant of General Xue Rengui, with your family background and your martial arts, you shouldn't just be a riding Cao now, but you are just a riding Cao, have you thought about the specific reason? With your temperament, your boss wouldn't dare to hand over the heavy responsibility to you! ”

"This ・・・・・・" After Gong Ren listened to Zhao Ziliang's words, his expression was a little trance, and the whole person seemed to be stupid.

Seeing this, Zhao Ziliang was a little puzzled, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, but found that Gong Ren had no reaction at all, he immediately knew that Gong Ren must have been stimulated by his words, and immediately shook his hand and slapped him several times in a row.

Gong Ren came to his senses from the pain. touched his hot face, looked at Zhao Ziliang and asked, "Why did you hit so-and-so?" ”

Zhao Ziliang snorted coldly: "Hmph, if I don't beat you, you're afraid you'll become a fool!" ”

"Huh?" Gong Ren remembered, looked embarrassed, arched his hand and said, "Thank you・・・・・・ thank you general!" ”

Zhao Ziliang smiled, thinking that this guy can be shaped, if this rhetoric can't make him realize his shortcomings, then this person can only be a puppet.

"Being arrogant is not a disadvantage, everyone has their own temperament. It is difficult to change, unless you experience a tragic event such as the destruction of a family, the death of a person, and the catastrophe of life and death! But if you want to be a master, to be a general who commands thousands of armies, it is not possible to cherish words like gold, so you have to talk more, is it difficult to speak? What do you do with a long mouth? It's talking and eating and drinking, you don't think that others like to talk, you can't stop talking, and you don't talk nonsense. Sometimes chattering is also an advantage, because chattering will make others feel that he has no scheming, so he will let down his guard, so that it is convenient for both parties to communicate. Like to talk is also a kind of personality charm, it will make others feel friendly, you look like you, look like no one is allowed to enter. Everyone is afraid to be close to you! It's okay if you're cold, but be sure to talk more! ”

Gong Ren blushed. Quite embarrassed, he said: "General, general, I don't know why, I don't know what to say when talking to people!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this, just say whatever you think, speaking is not writing poems or articles, you don't need to bite the words and chew the words, you don't need to spare the words like gold, our generals don't learn from those sour and rotten literati when they speak, every sentence is also, it makes people sour their big teeth, don't you say?" ”

Gong Ren touched the back of his head embarrassedly, and said with a smile: "Yes, what the general said is extremely true, and I don't like those sour and rotten literati who speak in a literal way, it makes people have a toothache to hear."

Zhao Ziliang pointed at Gong Ren and said with a smile: "Look, it's good to talk like this, it's not that you're not good at words, you're worried that you'll be laughed at if you say the wrong thing, it doesn't matter, you can learn what you don't know, and learning makes people progress!" ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Ziliang said again: "Your situation can't be changed in a short time, you have to take your time, don't worry." Do you want to change positions? This position is more in line with your temperament, but if you don't like to speak, you need to change it as soon as possible."

Gong Ren looked a little excited, and immediately arched his hand and said: "Please give the general's orders, my subordinates don't want to do that bullshit thing for a long time."

Zhao Ziliang arched his hand in the direction of the palace: "This general received His Majesty's will and was ordered to set up a supervisor Cao under the left prison guard, and the supervisor Cao is in charge of supervising the implementation of the door registration system, the military discipline and drills of the generals and soldiers under the left prison guards. The person in charge of this prison Cao can't be a person who is left and right, can't be a person with an undetermined will, can't be a person with a complicated background, General Ben has already checked, you are a collateral descendant of General Xue Rengui, your identity background is quite clean, plus you have a lonely temperament, firm will, and good martial arts, just meet the requirements, are you interested? ”

Gong Renzheng wanted to agree, but hesitated again and asked: "General, the last general・・・・・・ I want to ask, there are many generals in the Left Prison Guard Department, and there are many people who meet the requirements of the general, why did the general choose the last general alone?" ”

Zhao Ziliang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "General Ben looks at you pleasing to the eye, is this reason enough?" ”

Gong Ren is not stupid, the reason Zhao Ziliang said can be said to be not a reason, but it is a very important reason, which means that he will choose him only if he appreciates Gong Ren.

"Thank you for the general's appreciation, the last general will definitely live up to the general's love!"

"Well, you go first!"

After Gong Ren left, Bai Xiaode quickly walked in with a young man, "General, Chen Qing is here!" ”

"Chen Qing greets the general!" A very young, not too deep and tall, but very sturdy and neat young man bowed to Zhao Ziliang.

Zhao Ziliang doesn't like to use older people, especially when he is also very young, not because he is worried that those older people will bully him and disobey him, but because he thinks that the older a person is, the more sophisticated he is, but being young has the advantage of being young, and being older also has the advantage of being older.

Chen Qing is very young, he is an orphan, he was adopted and raised by an old captain of the forbidden army surnamed Chen, he often grew up mixed with the ruffians, he learned to see people's eyes since he was a child, so he is very sleek, which is why he was able to do it at such a young age in the capital without any background.

Zhao Ziliang has also figured out a set of methods for employing people in the past two years, everyone has his usefulness, it depends on how the people who use it, it will definitely not work to let a person who is both left and right and smooth to lead troops to fight, just like letting a person who makes money by his mouth kill pigs, such a person will inevitably not become a famous butcher.

Chen Qing is very clever, but not cunning, about this, Zhao Ziliang thinks that he can still see it, cunning people do not have such clear eyes, clear eyes show that Chen Qing's heart is very clean, although he has been among the soldiers since he was a child, but he has kept his heart unpolluted.

Zhao Ziliang looked at Chen Qing for a while, and said a topic that made Chen Qing feel inexplicable: "What kind of achievements a person can achieve in his life are mainly due to several reasons: first, the current situation, as the so-called current situation creates heroes, some people often sigh that they were born at the wrong time, and many people often say that if they are born in troubled times, they must be a hero, which seems to be nonsense, but it is not unreasonable; Second, opportunity, which I believe you will not deny is important; third, one's own character, character often determines one's fate, but also determines one's position and class; Fourth, talent and one's own efforts. Chen Qing, do you know your strengths and weaknesses? Do you know what kind of person you're a good fit for? ”

Chen Qing listened to Zhao Ziliang's words, his brows furrowed, he thought for a while, he didn't know why, and said, "Please also ask the general for guidance!" ”

Zhao Ziliang smiled and shook his head: "You need to find out for yourself." General Ben: I heard that you are the captain of the city gate in Chongxuanmen? ”

"Uh, yes!"

Zhao Ziliang weighed it in his heart and asked: "There is a lack of a person to do things around this general, and the post of recording and participating in the military is still vacant, you grew up in Chang'an City since you were a child, and you are mixed in the capital army, so you must be very familiar with the guards in the capital." Interested in giving it a try? ”

Chen Qing was a little hesitant, he was now the guard in charge of entering the city and the captain of the city gate, and there were more than a hundred and ten people under him, and he had real power. And if Zhao Ziliang is recorded to participate in the military, it is equivalent to shifting from military to civilian, although he is still a member of the army, the focus is already different, and the nature of civilian is more than that of military duty.

Zhao Ziliang saw him hesitating, so he said: "This matter is not in a hurry, you go back and think about it, and then come to General Ben after thinking about it."

Chen Qing quickly made a decision, he arched his hand and said: "General, my subordinates have already thought about it, thank you for the general's appreciation, my subordinates are willing!" ”

"Have you really figured it out?" Zhao Ziliang asked, and then said: "I see that you also have no bottom in your heart, so let's give you a promotion and be promoted to the rank of Guide Division!" Try it for a while first, do a good job and then be promoted, even if you don't do well, General Ben will let you go back and still guard your heavy Xuanmen, what do you think? ”

The rank of Guide Division is from the sixth rank, which is the same rank as the deputy lieutenant Zhenwei, but the difference is that it is a military rank in the army that is biased towards civilian military attachés, while the military ranks of deputy lieutenant Zhenwei and lieutenant Zhenwei are purely military ranks.

Chen Qing was a little embarrassed at this time, and hurriedly said: "General, if your subordinates think about it, they will do the recording and join the military, even if they don't do it well at the beginning, their subordinates will study hard until they meet the requirements of the general!" ”

Chen Qing's attitude was very upright, which made Zhao Ziliang very satisfied. (To be continued.) )
