Chapter 637: King Xiao Ming
Eastern Capital.
After Liu Qing took office, he immediately rectified the military affairs and gathered all the soldiers in the eastern capital except for the 50,000 elite sailors stationed on the Yangtze River, and after asking for points, there were 80,000 left!
The dignified court, the dignified Eastern Capital Army, the dignified army of millions, now there are only tens of thousands of soldiers left, and for a while, all the generals are demoralized and don't know how to do things.
Speaking of Liu Qing, he really has some ability, but he is not like a beggar wandering on the street, but a military master with real talent and learning.
At this time, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Liu Qing convened all the generals to discuss the matter.
"Worship the Grand Governor."
There were dozens of generals in the big tent, and all of them knelt down at the same time, however, kneeling was kneeling, but every general's face was full of dissatisfaction, Liu Qing was born as a beggar, and now he actually climbed on their heads and became the governor of the capital.
A milky little hairy child who has not dried up is actually going to be the governor of the capital, which is really ridiculous!
It must be noted here that Liu Qing is only nineteen years old this year!
A nineteen-year-old little doll is naturally unable to convince the public, even when worshiping Liu Qing as the governor, a huge ceremony, but the army has always respected force, no matter how big the ceremony is, the soldiers are also unconvinced.
And Liu Qing also knows about these, so she is now trying her best to accumulate prestige.
"Governor, gather us together, I don't know what's the matter?"
The person who spoke was named Lin Yan, Lin Yan was the number two general in the Eastern Capital Army, except for Yu Yuan, it was him!
Lin Yan's age is not very old, about forty or so, but his sword skills are extremely powerful, although he has always been unknown, as long as he is a general in the Eastern Capital Army, he knows that Lin Yan's martial arts are extremely strong!
Originally, everyone thought that the post of the governor of the eastern capital should fall on him, and many generals were ready to congratulate Lin Yan, but. No one expected that when the matter came, the emperor directly appointed a beggar as the governor, that is, Liu Qing in front of him.
Hear the words. Liu Qing said: "I called everyone here today to agree on the official position in the army, since the defeat of the Beijun army, the military system of our Eastern Capital Army has been disabled, so. It must be rectified! ”
"Rectification? Hehe. ”
Lin Yan sneered: "These 80,000 troops are all led by generals, and the military system is sound, what else do you need to choose?" ”
Liu Qing was not angry, and there was no displeasure on his face, so he didn't hear Lin Yan's words, looked at everyone and said with a smile: "You generals may not know yet, the emperor is going to recruit troops again, and the number of recruits this time is 300,000." ”
"The Governor of Pontus is here today. Just ask, are you willing to continue to be a general in the veteran barracks? Or do you want to go with me and train new recruits? ”
As soon as Liu Qing finished speaking, Lin Yan smiled and said, "Of course, the general will stay in the veteran barracks, so do you need to ask?" ”
The rest of the generals were the same, and they all said: "We are willing to stay in the veteran barracks." ”
In fact, everyone's meaning is obvious, they are not willing to help Liu Qing, Liu Qing wants to train recruits, but everyone just doesn't go, see how he trains, of course. This is only the first point, the second point, although the veteran battalion is only 80,000 people, the department is an elite division. There is no need to train every day, and the recruits, who have to insist on training every day, are tired and half dead, but they can be taken to the battlefield with low combat effectiveness.
These things. That is not clear, so when Liu Qing asked this question, no one in the big tent was willing to help him train recruits, seeing this scene, Liu Qing should have been very angry, but he was happy, but in his heart, he was extremely happy, this is exactly the result he wanted to see.
Although the old barracks are elite, they are all extremely difficult to discipline soldiers, Liu Qing came to the first time, it is absolutely uncontrollable, there were Yu Yuan and Yang Mingyue in the past, these soldiers didn't dare to be too much, now it's okay, as soon as the two die, all the soldiers are let go, especially now that such a beggar is still used as the governor, how can everyone obey.
Liu Qing knew this very well, so he had long wanted to give this veteran battalion to these generals, and then go to the new training soldiers himself, the newly trained soldiers must be more obedient than the veterans, and loyal, generally speaking, the first military commander to lead them, the soldiers will be extremely loyal.
"Okay, since everyone agrees, then I will announce the appointment of General Lin Yan as the supreme commander of the 80,000-strong army, and the rest of the generals will stick to their posts, and I hope you can lead the veteran battalion well."
When he said this, Liu Qing pretended to be a little angry, and after he finished speaking, he threw off his sleeve robe and strode out of the camp in a rage.
"Phew! Stinky beggars! ”
As soon as Liu Qing left, someone scolded.
"Dead beggar, the ghost will go to the boot camp with you, and you can train yourself."
"It's just..."
.......
Lin Yan was also very happy at this moment, he really didn't expect that Liu Qing would directly hand over the 80,000 elites to him, which was an unexpected joy.
After scolding Liu Qing for a while, all the generals rushed over to congratulate Lin Yan: "Congratulations to the general, General Hexi." ”
"Rejoice, rejoice..."
..............
Northern capital.
In the palace.
At this time, on the Golden Palace, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy walked around in an irritable mood, and beside him, followed by four eunuchs of the same size.
"Xiao Wuzi, what do you say I should do now, I can't live a day like this."
The boy is King Xiao Ming.
Hearing this, the eunuch named Xiao Wuzi lowered his head and whispered: "King Ming, we might as well put the prime minister..." Saying this, Xiao Wuzi made an expression of wiping his neck, with a ruthless face.
"It's easy for you to say, he has so many people under him, and he has guards in and out, how can we get it."
King Xiao Ming said: "Besides, now Beijun can't do without him, I have to find another way out if I want to be pro-government, no, no, you can give me another one." ”
The four people standing on this golden hall are the most trusted people of King Xiao Ming, except for these four, he has no cronies.
And among them, Xiao Wuzi is the most clever and loyal one, so he believes in Xiao Wuzi very much.
Hearing this, Xiao Wuzi tilted his head and thought for a long time, but if he wanted not to kill Cai Wenzhuo and wanted to be pro-government, where could there be such a good thing, unless Cai Wenzhuo's brain was broken and he took the initiative to hand over his position.
However, once Cai Wenzhuo called out the position, it was equivalent to no longer caring about the affairs of the northern capital, and it was no different from death.
"King Ming, it's okay to think of a way, but you can only choose one of them, such as pro-government, then you have to kill him, if you don't kill him, it's not enough to establish your authority!"
Xiao Wuzi's words are thorough, if King Xiao Ming can really kill Cai Wenzhuo's pro-government, it will definitely be very deterrent.
King Xiao Ming frowned: "But, if he dies and Wang Xu calls, what should I do?" ”
"This..."
Xiao Wuzi pouted, speechless.
"Forget it, let me think about it again. Don't act rashly. ”
"Yes." (To be continued.) )
