226 Lion Knights

Luan Yi shouted angrily: "Third brother, don't be rude!" As the saying goes, 'use people without suspicion, and don't use suspicious people'. Since Brother Feng is in the door of the church, I should be sincere with him. What are the six counties of Qingzhou! Brother Feng's achievements are far less than this, as long as the two of us work together, the world is as great as possible! ”

If Luan Yi's first half of the sentence is to express his attitude towards Lu Bu, then the second half of the sentence undoubtedly pokes directly at Lu Bu's heart and draws a sweet cake for the ambitious Lu Bu.

"The world is as big as it can be!" What an uplifting word? What is Lu Bu looking forward to in his life? Isn't it just the fierce soldiers and horses fighting in all directions?

So after listening to Luan Yi's words, Lu Bu was grateful, which was not only Luan Yi's trust, but also the future in Luan Yi's mouth. Immediately knelt down on one knee, "The sect leader is gracious, Bu Minggan is five, and he is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." ”

However, Lu Bu's attitude was sincere, and Guan Zhang and the others were still unconvinced.

Zhang Fei snorted coldly and said angrily: "Lu Bu has only joined the church for a few days, and he is not as good as Zilong, Hansheng, Zhongkang, and Ziyi in terms of merit, and even less than the eldest brother and second brother. I'm not convinced! ”

&*nbsp; "If you don't accept it, you have to accept it! I am the sect leader, and I have the final say on personnel appointments and dismissals! Luan Yi shouted angrily, which scared Zhang Fei. Luan Yi saw that his attitude was a little bad, so he immediately changed his tone and said in a deep voice: "Second brother, third brother, you and Zilong have all their credits in my eyes and in my heart. In the future, I will definitely repay and entrust me with important tasks, but the time is not yet ripe, and I still need you to be by my side to accomplish a lot of great things. As for Brother Fengxian, that's right! Indeed, he had just joined the church and had not done much for the church. But if you don't have merit now, it doesn't mean that you won't be able to make merit in the future. His power is there! Under the Tiger Prison, isn't it precisely because he bravely crowned the three armies and beheaded several generals in a row, which shocked the princes of the Nineteen Towns? In addition, Brother Feng Xian has been in Bingzhou for a long time, has fought against the Hu people for a long time, and knows very well the way the Hu people arrange their troops, which is the best testimony of his talent. I Luan Yi never rely on nepotism, pay attention to meritocracy, and people think they can. Brother Feng Xian is a tiger general in the world, but he is a great talent, and I feel that I have treated him badly when I am a Qingzhou assassin. But now the conditions are limited, and I can only temporarily grieve Brother Feng to serve as the assassin, and Brother Feng is not strange! ”

"What can, how can it! The leader of the sect knows the grace of the encounter, and the cloth is within the five! Lu Bu said these words from the bottom of his heart. As the saying goes, if a soldier dies for his confidant, how can he not die for those who believe in him? Luan Yi trusted him so much, how could he not serve his life.

Luan Yi continued: "As for the credit, I will make up for it when Feng Xian has appointed the assassin history!" ”

Lu Bu wiped his tears and knelt down in response, "Bu, you will definitely live up to the high expectations of the sect leader!" ”

Luan Yi hurriedly helped Lu Bu up, smiled and said, "Brother will be appointed, it's a happy event, don't do tears again." ”

"The Sect Master smiled!"

Luan Yi turned his head to look at Guan Zhang again, and asked, "Do the two brothers still have any objections?" ”

Zhang Fei snorted coldly and stopped talking. Guan Yu squinted his phoenix eyes, stared at Lu Bu and warned: "My fourth brother is a kind person, I just hope that you will not live up to the trust of the fourth brother." Otherwise, don't blame me Guan Yunchang for being ruthless, even if you have thousands of troops, I have to take your head! ”

Facing Guan Yu's threatening words. The unruly Lu Bu was furious, but because Luan Yi hid his face and thought that he would work together for a long time in the future, he forcibly pressed it down, put on a smiling face, and said: "Yun Chang rest assured, Bu swears to the sky and will live up to the sect leader." ”

Guan Yu didn't answer again, just nodded.

Listening to Lu Bu's oath, Luan Yi patted Lu Bu's shoulder and said with a smile: "I knew that with Fengxian's cleverness, he would definitely not become the second Tian Kai." Isn't it? ”

If Luan Yi's previous words were all about showing favor to Lu Bu, then the joke he said inadvertently just now undoubtedly carried a strong sense of threat.

What is the second Tian Kai? When Tian Kai is mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind is why he fled to Hebei? Is it because he is afraid of Lu Bu? Yes, but that's only one aspect. What's more, he can't get along in Qingzhou.

Why can't it go on? Because of the exclusion of millions of people in Qingzhou.

Why did the people exclude him? The answer is imminent, because of the Church of Our Lady. In the eyes of the Virgin Mary, they only recognize Luan Yi, the spokesperson of the Virgin Mary in the world, and do not recognize any assassination history, let alone any emperor. In Qingzhou and Jinan, Luan Yi is the real king, which cannot be shaken.

If you want to gain a foothold in Qingzhou, you must first recognize the Church of Our Lady and obey the leader of the Religion of Our Lady.

Tian Kaizheng was driven out of Qingzhou by the church army and the believers of the Holy Mother because of his vain attempt to break this rule, and he lost his official position and did not mention it for the time being, and he also won eternal infamy for "one night in Linzi". It can be said that life is better than death.

This time, Luan Yi is borrowing Tian Kai as a metaphor for Lu Bu, I trust you indeed. But if you try to dominate Qingzhou, Tian Kai is your example. I also hope that you are good at doing it yourself, and don't use any crooked brains.

In this regard, Lu Bu knew this, patted his chest and said that he was loyal, but whenever there was the slightest thought of betraying the church, there would be five thunderstorms in the sky.

Luan Yi smiled. "Then I will entrust Qingzhou to Brother Feng Xian!"

"Please rest assured!"

"Good!" Luan Yi straightened his robe, took out a scroll from his sleeve pocket, and said, "The Commander of the Holy Bear Army, Lu Bulu, will take the order of the sect leader first!" ”

"Sect Leader's Order?" Lu Bu looked dazed and at a loss. Subconsciously imitate the etiquette of receiving the holy decree and kneel on one knee.

Xu Shu hurriedly stepped forward to pull Lu Bu up and teach him the etiquette of the Holy Mother Sect. Tell him that Our Lady does not kneel on the ground, nor does she bow down, but that when you prostrate, you should hit your left foot with your right foot to shake off the dust on your body to symbolize the cleanliness of your body, and at the same time raise your right hand 45 degrees high, which means that your heart is attached to the heavens, and you hope to enter the gate of heaven and go to heaven after death. This is the unique gesture of the Church of Our Lady, and in the future, in the Church of Our Lady, whether it is to the leader or to the common believers, they must show their friendship when they meet.

Lu Bu referred to Xu Shu's demonstration posture, practiced twice, and felt that he had learned a lot. He stood still in front of Luan Yi, his feet shoulder-width apart, and his right foot slammed his left foot, "Smack!" Then the right hand was raised, "Teach the Lord!" ”

Luan Yi opened the scroll and read it aloud. The content is basically saying: At the same time that Lu Bu received the holy decree to serve as the assassin of Qingzhou, Luan Yi, the first generation of the Notre Dame Sect, conferred on Lu Bu as a lion knight and concurrently served as the commander of the Holy Bear Army of the Holy Bear Sect of the Holy Mother of Mary, Li Su and Li Weigong were deputy marshals, and his generals Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Zang Ba were all paladins, and Luan Lu continued to serve as the patriarch of the Holy Bear Army and was responsible for the affairs of the army.

In addition, Luan Yi also arranged a deadline for Lu Bu, asking him to expand the Holy Bear Army to 20,000 within half a year. In other words, on the basis of the existing 6,000 people, 14,000 professional church guards must be recruited in addition to the standing city defense force in Qingzhou. The money that nourishes this part of the guards is supplied by the Diocese of Qingzhou.

Between the Qingzhou diocese former patriarch Zhang Xu died. Luan Yi temporarily appointed Anmin's cardinal Archbishop Mao Jue to concurrently serve as the patriarch of the diocese of Qingzhou, responsible for overseeing the religious affairs of the six counties of Qingzhou and assisting Lu Bu in recruiting soldiers. In the process, Lu Bu can apply to Mao Jue at any time if he needs anything.

Hearing this, Lu Bu originally thought that Luan Yi had transferred Mao Jue to Qingzhou purely to spy on him. It wasn't until he entered Qingzhou and understood the organizational structure of the church that he realized that Mao Jue went to Qingzhou to serve as the patriarch and monitor Qingzhou's every move was only by the way, and more to facilitate the recruitment of soldiers.

As the 12th Cardinal Archbishop of the Church, Mao Jue is the Cardinal Archbishop of Anmin, who is mainly responsible for all aspects of the lives of believers. As a result, he has the right to allocate many resources in the major dioceses of the Notre Dame Church, which can play a huge role in promoting the future work of Lu Bu.

Compared with Mao Jue, Xu Shu is also a cardinal archbishop. But he is mainly responsible for the military affairs of the church, and can be said to be Lu Bu's top boss. If Luan Yi sincerely wanted to spy on him Lu Bu, he could send Xu Shu over. But Luan Yi didn't do this, but chose Mao Jue. In this regard, Lu Bu was very moved.

Of course, this is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

At the end of the sect's order, Luan Yi said that he would use the Holy Bear Army as a pilot to open military reform. After recruiting the 20,000 soldiers and horses of the Holy Bear Army, Lu Bu was asked to divide all the soldiers and horses into 4 brigades of 5,000 men each. Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Zang Ba, and Hao Meng respectively served as captains and brigade commanders of each brigade, Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Chengfuzhi. Each brigade has four more regiments of 1,250 men each, and five more battalions of 250 men per battalion under the regiment. Each battalion was divided into five companies, each with 50 men. Each company has 5 tithes, and each tithe has 10 people. Brigades, regiments, battalions, and battalions are arranged in five echelons to form an army, with one chief and one deputy officer and one clergy at each level, and the army must be equipped with a medical team with a battalion strength.

"The Sect Master's order is over!" Luan Yi rolled up the scroll and handed it to Lu Bu, "Time is pressing, does Brother Feng have the confidence to build the Holy Bear Army into a strong army that can fight and win battles in just half a year?" ”

"Determined to live up to the mission!"

Luan Yi looked pleased, "I'm relieved to have Brother Fengxian's words!" I will entrust Qingzhou and the Holy Bear Army to you. ”

"Whoa!"

Luan Yi turned to look at Li Su and said, "Brother Wei Gong! ”

"In!" Li Su was still immersed in the joy of being promoted to the county guard, and the corners of his mouth cracked to the back of his head.

"The current Linzi County is different from the past, nearly eighty percent of the people have died, and Linzi has become a dead city. Whether you can rejuvenate this dead city, or even recreate Qi Huan's majesty, as a county guard, you have a great responsibility. In order to help you regain the prosperity of Linzi as soon as possible, I will draw 50,000 people from the people who moved from Chang'an this time to settle in Linzi County. You have to be appeased and let them live in peace. In addition, I would like to remind you that the Church of Our Lady has a different way of appeasing the people than elsewhere, and the specific method can be discussed with Mao Xiaoxian, who is the cardinal archbishop of Anmin, who has a lot of experience in this field and can provide you with sufficient support. ”

Li Su was worried about the empty city of Linzi, and Luan Yi sent people over. How could Li Su not be happy, a thousand thanks were not a problem.
