Chapter 5: The Overseer Builds on the Team (5)
After the twenty-third day of the first year of Zhou Guangshun, the small year, the weather was sunny and sunny on this day, and the temperature rose for the first time after experiencing more than 20 days of sluggishness. On this day, the military personnel supervising and taking care of the porridge shacks were no longer visible in front of the seven soup kitchens set up in Xicheng, and the soldiers patrolling the streets every day in the entire Xicheng for the past few days were gone.
Early in the morning of this day, the envoy sent by Zhi Congruan, the envoy of Xuanyi, Baoyi, and Jingnan, the envoy of the three towns and the three towns, and the commander of the three towns, Zhi Deyuan, accompanied by Li Bin, the observer judge of Yanzhou Jiedu, led 300 Zhejia troops to arrive in Yanzhou City. On the same day, Gao Yunquan, the envoy of the Zhangwu Army and the servant of the Zhangwu Army, who was originally going to go out of the city to greet him, was not sick, and Gao Shaoji and Liu Xun, the judge of Yanzhou Jiedu, were commanded to go out of the city to greet him. In order to avoid the suspicions of the Gao family, Zhe Deyuan stationed the army outside the city and only brought ten personal soldiers into Yanzhou.
Zhi Deyuan, who was secretly dissatisfied in his heart, didn't know that on the first night of his arrival in Yanzhou, Gao Yunquan was angry and vomited blood......
Just yesterday afternoon, after Li * was satisfied with all the things he wanted, he handed over the military and political power of Yanzhou to Gao Yunquan, and the first thing Gao Yunquan did when he regained control of the situation was to send a fast horse to meet Li Bin and Zhi Deyuan, on the one hand, to be polite, and on the other hand, to be able to block the inside story of the Yanzhou mutiny to Zhe Deyuan.
Gao Yunquan is not just afraid of losing face, but this mutiny is too weird, and he was turned upside down by fifty small soldiers in a few hours. If this inside story is known to Zhi Deyuan, the weakness of the Zhangwu army will be undisguised in front of the Zhijia army, and Zhi Deyuan will inevitably have this thought, fifty people can easily take the city of Yanzhou, and the three hundred strong soldiers he brought already have the strength to annex the land of nine counties? It is related to the ******** pattern of Yanzhou, and Gao Yunquan does not pay attention to it.
It wasn't until all the relevant things were arranged that Gao Yunquan freed up his energy to inspect the Yanzhou Treasury.
So the old waiter spurted blood on the spot, and he was unconscious......
This time-honored local magnate never imagined that there would be such a greedy scoundrel in the world......
In just four days, Li * has turned the entire Yanzhou Jiedu Center into an empty shelf.
The treasury is empty, the grain depot is empty, the arsenal is empty, and the little money that Gao Yunquan and the three generations of the Gao family have saved in Yanzhou for many years has been squandered by this deputy lieutenant who doesn't talk about the road at all-oh, now he is the captain of Xuanjie, and he has squandered everything.
Gao Yunquan never thought that this small team leader, whom he had met for the first time until today, would have such a neat, fierce and vicious method.
Originally, in Gao Yunquan's opinion, this guy suddenly took over the power, and it was inevitable that he would get carried away, and maybe he would establish himself as a feudal town, and he was most worried about this. Once he did so, although it was tantamount to suicide, it also directly declared the end of the Gao family's reign in Yanzhou. Although there may not be no chance of a turnaround in the future, at least for the moment, the Gao family is going to live on their back......
But Li * did not do this, but happily withdrew from the gambling game after taking away the sixteen edicts in one go, and handed back the military and political power, which had already surprised Gao Yunquan. Being able to face the power of the Yanzhou Jiedu to make a feudal town so calm and free, Gao Yunquan thought that he had never seen such a person.
What he never expected was that this person took away far more than that......
Tens of thousands of family wealth, nearly 8,000 stone of grain, all the fine armor and weapons, this team leader did not leave him even a little residue......
On the surface, he didn't shake the big tree in Gaojia Domain, but he directly cut off the roots of the big tree......
From this point of view, it doesn't matter whether the sixteen edicts are given to him or not, he has money, food, and military armor, and all the material conditions for this person to recruit troops and horses for the king of the mountain are already in place, and he can already expand the army on his own without saying any hello to himself. And even so, he actually pulled an official certificate from himself, this guy didn't have any interest in being a powerful mountain king, he wanted to be a feudal town within the Yanzhou Domain, a warlord on the warlord's territory......
This person's mental tricks are so terrible that to this day, Gao Yunquan doesn't even know how to evaluate this seemingly rude and brutal ruffian. said that he was proficient in the art of power, but he was tough on everything, and he would never compromise and seek the art of combining vertical and horizontal calculations; Let's say that he is fierce and vicious, this time he and his son have greatly offended him, obviously the lives of the father and son have been pinched in the palm of his hand, but he raised it high and fell gently, and finally he didn't even touch a single hair of the father and son; Let's say that he is broad-minded, but he swept away the family wealth accumulated by the Gao family for several generations within a few days, and he didn't even leave a penny for himself......
No wonder this man is so convenient to give back the power to himself......
What he gave himself was clearly an empty shell, a hot stove......
As for sending troops up the mountain to snatch these things back, Gao Yunquan didn't dare to think about it, not to mention that the performance of the entire Zhangwu army on the day of the mutiny was as fragile as a piece of tissue paper, that is, the Zhangwu army can still fight at this moment, and what can he use to pay the officers and soldiers? He was too familiar with the army under his command, and they didn't even bother to get out of the camp gate, let alone fight that fierce god-like figure, and if they insisted on exterminating Li*, they were afraid that they would provoke another mutiny at that time......
There have been more than one mutiny in Yanzhou, and each time the scale of the uproar was bigger than this one, and the number of dead people on the street was far greater than this time. It's just that when it comes to losses, all the mutinies that have taken place since the establishment of Yanzhou are not as big as this one.
If this person is not a madman, he must be the rarest kind of hero in today's troubled times......
Li Yiyin is also a hero, but Gao Yunquan feels that this party member is much cuter than Li *.
Although this person has to come over to grab a handful every year, at least, he has not robbed the Gao family's things......
Gao Yunquan vomited blood that night and had a high fever that did not go away, and he continued to talk nonsense, panicking the entire Jiedu Mansion at a loss. Qin Gu got the news and visited Xicheng overnight, and was shocked when he saw Gao Yunquan, in just a few days, this Yanzhou Jiedu, who was only in his fifties, had all his hair white, and he couldn't even see a single green silk, and he was described as withered as a dead man.
Only then did Qin Gu realize how vicious and vicious the tricks behind Li*'s seemingly magnanimous actions were, although he did not directly kill Gao Yunquan with one sword, he was going to kill the old man's half-life......
Seeing Gao Yunquan's pitiful appearance, not to mention Qin Gu, even Li Bin, the former master of Li *, couldn't help but scold hatefully, "This scoundrel bastard".
So far, the news of the mutiny is absolutely impossible to hide, and Zhi Deyuan has privately sent his own soldiers to the market to listen to the news, but the news he heard half shocked him and half made him cry and laugh......
The fact that 50 soldiers under Li *, without the command and command of the officer, defeated the entire battalion of the Zhangwu army and took control of the state city and Jiedu Province, which shocked Zhe Deyuan greatly. What shocked him was not the fierce combat effectiveness of these fifty soldiers, but the fact that "there is no team officer to command", as a veteran of the battlefield, Zhi Deyuan knows too well what this fact means, which means that this team of fifty people has an extremely strong team of officers as the core.
In addition, contrary to the statement of the Jiedu Mansion, the people on the street are boasting about the good deeds of this Lord Li, and in the mouths of the people and ordinary soldiers of the Zhangwu Army, this Officer Li is a good official who loves the people like a son, and a good boss who is sympathetic to his comrades and loves soldiers like a son; Although Zhi Deyuan didn't know the inside story, the culprit of the mutiny actually gained such an unbelievable good reputation among the people, which really made him a little laughable......
However, these days have been sneezing constantly (scolded?). Boasted? But Li * had no time to care about these things, and the new former battalion commander and Captain Xuanjie was almost so busy that he didn't even have time to catch his breath.
He's busy expanding his army......
With money and food in hand, Li *, who returned to the mountain, started recruiting soldiers almost non-stop. At present, nearly 400 displaced people have been resettled in the temporary resettlement site for displaced people on Fenglin Mountain, of whom 74 are young and middle-aged people who meet the requirements for service, plus more than 80 officers and men of the "former" former battalion who were defeated by Team C in one fell swoop a few days ago and all the officers and men of the former battalion were captured.
Thirty soldiers were transferred from Team C to serve as the commanders of the three recruits at one time, and Liang Xuan, Lu Xun and Ling Pu were appointed as the captains of the three recruits, and they were awarded the rank of captain of Renyong in accordance with the regulations.
Zhou Zhengyu rose this time, and officially became the first secretary with an official rank in the battalion - oh, it was the secretary who joined the army, from the eight-rank imperial lieutenant, and suddenly promoted from a white ding to the eight-rank court official, Zhou Zhengyu, a veteran soldier, was so excited that he burst into tears - half of the time he had already entered the ground, and he never thought that he would have such a day. There were seven or eight team leaders in front and back, and the cautious old Zhou didn't catch anything, and now he has only been with this Li team leader for a few months, and he has been promoted to the official with a swish, and one promotion is five or six levels. But now that he has the edict stamped with the seal of the Bianliang Military Department, no one dares to take the identity of this eight-rank official as a joke, you know, the top boss of his boss back then, Liao Jianzhong, is just a lieutenant......
Lao Zhou's unproductive behavior of never seeing the world made Li * shake his head again and again - a sesame officer at the level of deputy administrative section can excite a senior grassroots cadre of the Zhangwu Army over the age of 40 like this, which shows how big a problem there is in the current system of selecting and promoting officers in the Yanzhou army......
In addition to Lao Zhou, another winner is Shen Chen, who was also directly promoted by Li * to the former battalion commander to join the army (this is also an official position newly invented by Li *, the role is roughly equivalent to the chief of staff) and the chief instructor of military training, the military rank is the same as Lao Zhou's imperial insult captain, and what is even more enviable is that he also concurrently serves as the head of the C team. Everyone in the battalion knows that Team C is an old unit trained by the commander, although there are only twenty people left because of the transfer of a large number of soldiers, and more than a dozen of them are still recruits who have just joined the team, but these recruits also participated in the Layue Mutiny, and directly participated in the battle, many of them have seen bloody killings like veterans, which are incomparable to those recruits who have just been incorporated into the recruit team. At this moment, the officers of the former C team basically have no opinion on this arrangement of the commander, and everyone can see that after the Luziguan training tongue grabbing and the Layue mutiny, Shen Chen, a young man, is already faintly the second person under Li * in this army.
The former party Xiang Harrier, who had just joined the army, was awarded the rank of captain of Renyong by Li *, serving as the scout chief of the former battalion scout team and the deputy chief instructor of training, although this non-existent scout team is still only fine Feng Minda himself, but this appointment still makes the fine seal Minda really stunned. Although he had already mixed into the Harrier team in the Dingyan Army, as a slave, he did not have any official rank and status in the tribe, and he never knew that a soldier from his background could become a full-fledged officer with the rank of imperial court.
In contrast, as the main planner of the Layue Mutiny, Wei Xun was very depressed, because he had not received any appointments and awards so far, Wei Xun knew that he was not a good soldier, not to mention Shen Chen, but also much worse than Liang Xuan, Lu Xun and others in their daily training, and he was good at scheming, this was by no means an easy habit to please the officials. What's more, Li * obviously would not allow himself to form a gang and form a small private group in the army he built single-handedly, so after listening to Li *'s words in Jiedu Mansion a few days ago, Wei Xun knew that this time he was afraid that he would not be dealt with by the team officer, or thrown out as a scapegoat.
Despite this, seeing that yesterday's comrades-in-arms had all obtained the rank of eighth or ninth rank in the blink of an eye, and they were all so happy that their faces were full of red light, Wei Xun still felt sour in his heart. Even so, he didn't dare to complain about Li * in his heart, after all, this was the best and most reliable officer he had come into contact with since he joined the army, Wei Xun knew from the time Lu Guan was injured that in his life, this life had been sold to Li *, and he had no other thoughts in this life except to be willing to drive under Li *. Although it is good to heal him or carry him on the march, it is not a matter of time in Li *'s opinion, but Wei Xun understands in his heart that if he is injured like that in that kind of weather on weekdays, he will eventually end up being gradually frozen into a zombie in the severe cold, although Li *'s approach is quite common in his own opinion, but in the army of this era, this is already synonymous with loving soldiers like children.
Wei Xun squatted on the edge of the playground and sighed for a long time, regretting that he shouldn't have played tricks with this team officer when Li * first came, and lamenting the good lives of others and his own bad luck, even Ling Pu, who followed him, is now mixed with a nine-grade background, but he is still a white one, he does not complain about Li *, but in his heart he secretly scolds God for being unfair.
“…… Today is a holiday for everyone, you can drink, why don't you drink in the house, but run out alone? ”
A gentle voice suddenly sounded behind him......
Wei Xun hurriedly stood up, turned around and faced Li *, who was dressed in civilian clothes and smiled, with a flat-chested military salute: "Commander, I-"
Li * waved his hand, pressed his shoulder, and the two of them squatted down together, Li * didn't look at him, stared at the snare drum on the opposite side of the playground and asked softly: "If you don't become an official and a half-job, how can you feel uncomfortable alone?" ”
Wei Xun's face was red, he hesitated and didn't dare to answer, and the hills and gullies in his heart were once again seen by Li *, he felt that the boss was embarrassed, the man's husband, for such a little sour little thing, he ran out of a life sulking, he himself felt that he was really ashamed.
"According to your qualifications, you should have been in charge of a ......team like Liang Xuan," Li said slowly.
Wei Xun hurriedly said: "Commander, I know it myself, I-"
“…… You're not a good soldier, and when you train as a soldier, you sell five points of strength at most, and you can't get up or down, I ......know this in my heart."
Wei Chen was silent, what he wanted to say was said by Li *, and he didn't feel a good feeling in his heart, but fortunately, there was no one else around at the moment, Li * finally saved face for him in front of everyone, and this thoughtfulness made him feel a little better in his heart.
"But you have your strengths, Shen Chen and Liang Xuan, who only know how to fight, can't compare......"
To great surprise, Lee said such a comment gently.
"This time I suffered, if it weren't for you in the team to preside over the situation and make a decision immediately, we are afraid that this will be a real disaster for our C team. Although the timing of this mutiny is not right, you are not wrong in your decision, if you don't rise up and fight, we will all be pinched to death. Your strategy of capturing the thief and capturing the king first is also correct, if you don't take the lead in controlling the Jiedu Mansion and let the Gao family father and son get in touch with Waito, the situation will be complicated. Although you don't know much about military affairs, but you have a unique experience in power and political struggles, I didn't know it before, after this incident, your weight in my heart has been heavier than Brother Zhou, you saved my life, do you know, Brother Wei? ”
The grievances in Wei Xun's heart gradually froze in these lingering words, and a hot and sour feeling came to his eyes again, and he blinked desperately, really not wanting to be embarrassed at this time.
"Although you are not good at military affairs, your role in the army is incomparable to Liang Xuan's others. I didn't confer on you this time, not because I have any opinion on you......"
Li * smiled and turned his face: "This time, except for Lao Zhou, I appointed the commanders of each team, your position, not there!" Got it? ”
Wei Xun was confused, and said softly: "I don't understand ...... of lowly duties."
Li * smiled: "You'll understand tomorrow, Supervisor Wei ......"
"Supervisor?"
Li * smiled and nodded: "Yes, the first supervisor of my front battalion, concurrently serving as the supervisor of Team C and the three recruit teams, the rank of lieutenant of the imperial insult, and the rank of ...... rank is from the eighth rank."
