Chapter 132: The team that fights the country
The generals are all extremely hot, and they are ready to follow Chen Sheng and achieve the cause of the king. But who knows, as soon as Chen Sheng came up, he seemed to want to seize their military power?
Although Chen Sheng was talking about rectifying military power, in the ears of the generals, it was no different from seizing military power.
As a result, the generals were shocked and then angry.
Although Chen Sheng's prestige is very high, and he has won several battles, it is too much to want to seize their military power for no reason.
There is a way to cut off people's wealth, which is equivalent to killing parents. And now in troubled times, military power is tantamount to the root of life for generals.
Chen Sheng wanted to seize military power, which was hated by the generals more than killing his parents.
Therefore, the faces of many generals suddenly became gloomy, and they only felt that the fiery hearts just now were cold.
And Wei Yan, Liao Hua, and Hu Che'er are the same worries as Zhou Cang, isn't this too fast?
Only Jia Xu was amazed after a slight shock.
It's really powerful.
As Chen Sheng knew, the dispersion of military power led to inconsistent orders, which was the bane caused by Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu also knew that this was a mistake, but he always remembered the old and did not make up his mind to rectify the military power.
This is the loss of the entire Wancheng.
And now Chen Sheng wants to rectify, which is a manifestation of Chen Sheng's enterprising heart Zhang Xiuqiang. In addition, Chen Sheng still carried out rectification when he had just sat in the position of the lord of Nanyang.
What is this not courage?
Of course, Jia Xu didn't think that Chen Sheng was in a hurry, on the contrary, Jia Xu also thought that now was the right time, didn't he see that he had angered Cao Ying? The war is about to break out, and the advantage of rectifying military power and unifying orders as soon as possible is that there are many advantages.
If it is rectified and the hearts of the generals are appeased, it will definitely be conducive to fighting Cao Ying.
Courage, sure enough, it is Chen Sheng, different from Zhang Xiu, who has just sat in this position, and he can dare to carry out drastic reforms.
Jia Xu's heart couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration.
"General, what do you mean by that? Do you want to seize our military power? After a while, a grumpy general asked stiffly.
There is strong hostility among them.
This hostility suddenly made Wei Yan, Liao Hua, Hu Che'er, Zhou Cang, Qian Chong, Chen Feng and other generals who were biased towards Chen Sheng frown, and looked at the general who spoke unkindly.
"Wu Guang, the general has his own considerations. You can't be presumptuous. Hu Che'er said coldly.
Although Hu Che'er's body was damaged and a little weakened, the majesty of the past still existed, and this drink suddenly became extraordinary. This general, named Wu Guang, suddenly shrunk his neck, revealing a little hesitation.
After all, Hu Che'er bravely crowned the three armies, and the prestige he accumulated was terrifying. However, in the end, in Wu Guang's heart, the greed for military power prevailed.
"General Hu, you say so. Could it be that the general really wants to seize our military power? Wu Guang stiffened his neck and said loudly.
As he spoke, Wu Guang still looked left and right, and glanced at many Xiliang generals.
"General, you have succeeded General Zhang. has become the master of one party, is it possible that in the blink of an eye, he will seize the military power of our old General Zhang's army? ”
Someone spoke.
This man's name is Lu Zhu, he has 500 soldiers under his command, he loves nurses very much, and he is also very brave in battle, he is a rare brave general, and his words are also very weighty.
And as the two spoke, many Xiliang generals were suspicious, questioning, and even hostile to Chen Sheng's actions.
Hu Che'er was suddenly furious and wanted to scold. Wei Yan, Liao Hua, and Zhou Cang flashed coldly in their eyes, and they hated the hostility exuded by the generals.
At this moment, Chen Sheng spoke. I saw Chen Sheng shake his head and said, "I don't want to seize the power of leading your troops, I just want to regulate the name." ”
Speaking of this, Chen Sheng paused, and then said: "Now the strength of Nanyang County, plus the prisoners of the Cao army, is about 24,000 people. I would like to break it down into five parts. Among them, Zhao Yun led 6,000 elite soldiers to camp in Guangcheng. The remaining 18,000 men, of which 6,000 were commanded by General Hu Che'er. The 3,000 elite soldiers were commanded by Wei Yan, the 3,000 elite soldiers were commanded by Liao Hua, and the remaining 6,000 elite soldiers were commanded by Changshi Fanggu and Zhou Cang as my base battalion. ”
In this way, there are only five generals left, and the order is unified. This is equivalent to crumpling a plate of loose sand into a ball, turning it into a stone. All of you generals are veterans of the battlefield, and you should understand this truth. ”
Chen Sheng told his plan and the benefits of rectifying the military power, openly and honestly, without concealing anything.
"That's a nice thing to say, but it's not to deprive us of our military rights?"
"Yes, in the name of righteousness, we have taken away our military power."
But the generals of Xiliang still couldn't stand the fact that their military power was taken away, and they muttered one after another. One by one, like a cow tending to a calf.
"No, as I said earlier, I won't take your military power. It's just a change in the names of the generals. In the face of the generals' doubts and even hostility, Chen Sheng was still calm and unusually calm.
Immediately, Chen Sheng said again: "All of you here, after removing the name of the general and sorting out the military power. I grant you six hundred soldiers. Under my command and the four generals, he became a military officer, so that the military power was still there. ”
Chen Sheng's words suddenly made the muttering of the Xiliang generals a lot less. Although the generals present were known as lieutenant generals or captains, they led 300 to 800 soldiers and horses.
Chen Sheng reorganized everyone, removed the complicated titles of lieutenant generals and captains, and became a military candidate in charge of 600 soldiers, and became a part of the soldiers and horses under Wei Yan, Liao Hua, Zhao Yun, Hu Che'er, and Chen Sheng.
This does not seem unacceptable.
Gradually, the Xiliang generals were dissatisfied with Chen Sheng's rectification of military power, and gradually let go and began to accept this proposal. However, there are always a few people who don't have a taste in their hearts.
This has only heard that the official is getting bigger and bigger, but I have not heard of the official getting smaller and smaller.
Although it is said that after the rectification of military power, their military power is still there, and a small number of people who lead 4 or 500 troops have increased some troops. However, the official position was from a lieutenant general, or a lieutenant, to a low-level military candidate. The taste of this is really indescribable.
Besides, in the past, the generals had different names, and each had the right to serve the army and the right to read. Now they want to be unified under the command of Zhao Yun and Wei Yan, which is really a little unhappy.
These people include Wu Guang and Lu Zhu, who just spoke.
"General, I admit that you do not want to deprive us of our military power, but only want to elect four main generals, and together with the generals, command the 24,000 elite soldiers of Nanyang County, and unify the order. But what can we fight for, but Wei Yan and Liao Hua are the main generals? ”
Wu Guang said with a slight dissatisfaction.
"Yes, are the three generals Wei Yan, Liao Hua, and Zhao Yun stronger than us?"
Lu Yi also nodded and said.
The words of the two suddenly made the hearts of the Xiliang generals, who had calmed down a lot just now, rise with the same thoughts. Yes, they are the most brave and good at fighting, why can Wei Yan, Liao Hua, and Zhao Yun climb on our heads.
Suddenly, many people looked at Wei Yan, Liao Hua's eyes were a little unkind, and there were even more malicious speculators, thinking that this was Chen Sheng's appointment of cronies and wanted to squeeze out their old Zhang Xiu department.
Regarding the generals' doubts, Chen Sheng did not explain again this time, but said directly: "This is my judgment. After a pause, Chen Sheng said again: "If you don't want to be condescending to your dignity, from the middle general, captain, become a military candidate." Then automatically leave the barracks. I will not treat you badly, but each of you will give you five hundred gold, a hundred stone of grain, and a good house. ”
As the words came out, Chen Sheng's momentum became extremely tough.
Wu Guang and Lu Zheng were actually a little hesitant just now, but now Chen Sheng's words aroused the arrogance of the two. General Xiliang is the most unruly.
Immediately, Wu Guang was a little angry and asked Chen Sheng: "Is this coercion and temptation, general?" ”
"Wu Guang." Hu Che'er suddenly stood up and shouted. His beard and hair are all open, like an angry tiger, and he is extremely fierce. But this time, Wu Guang was no longer timid, he said hard at Hu Che'er: "General Hu, you have a battalion of 6,000 soldiers and horses, and you have become the main general, which is a high promotion." Originally, we were on an equal footing, but now we are a head shorter than you, and you are naturally happy. But we couldn't be happy. ”
"Yes, you are promoted, and you used to be in the same camp as the general, so you naturally look forward to the general." Lu Ji also said with a sneer.
These two people are really hard, and their words are hard.
"I don't want to say any more, but I'll give you two choices. First, he was demoted to a military candidate and commanded 600 elite soldiers. Second, they got a house, gold, silver, and grain, and enjoyed glory and wealth. ”
Chen Sheng's tone remained the same, but there was a little chill.
"Hmph." Wu Guang and Lu Qi glanced at each other, and they all let out a cold snort.
"Since the general insists on this, then we have no choice but to leave." Immediately, Lu Zhu and Wu Guang bowed to Chen Sheng stiffly, got up and left.
Angry, he brushed his sleeves away. After the two left, four more people left together with the two of them.
The seats in this hall were suddenly quite vacant.
For the six people who left, Chen Sheng had no intention of pursuing it. First, these are Zhang Xiu's old departments, and now that they have seized the military power, it will be really hurtful to kill them all.
Second, Chen Sheng knew that although Wu Guang and Lu Zhu spoke hard, they were straightforward and had no crooked surnames, and Chen Sheng didn't plan to care about the offense of the two.
In addition, Chen Sheng's heart also rose with a bit of joy.
Wei Yan, Liao Hua, Zhao Yun, and Hu Che'er are all fierce generals, with them as the main generals, and there are more than ten Xiliang generals as the backbone, and the army formed must be much stronger than the previous Wancheng army.
It can be said that the soldiers who remain now are his absolute iron team in the future.
