"Oh? Tell me about it. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Zhou Jing's face also slowed down slightly.

Zhao Ning is also a lot more down-to-earth in his heart. "The previous assassin has been dismissed and investigated because of the unfavorable counterinsurgency, you are an important minister of the country, this time as the assassin of Xuzhou, it is to be ordered in danger, it must be because the court knows that the king has the ability to lead troops to quell the rebellion, so there will be this arrangement. Therefore, when the envoy drinks tea, his subordinates also know that the envoy must not be deliberately neglected, but to see how many catties and taels of humble position there are, can he be driven? ”

"It's not bad that young people are still in their heads. But since you know that I didn't mean to neglect you, you should also know that I won't be partial to you just because you handled it well. If you want to win the first credit and ascend to the position of the left supervisor of Yulin in one step, after all, it depends on your own ability and luck, go down, I hope you can do it yourself. Zhou Jing spoke lukewarmly from beginning to end, but there was a bit of "the Tao is invisible, and it is used in the unknowable".

Zhao Ning respectfully retired, and also understood that he had met a powerful person, and thought, "To be able to achieve the high position of Jiuqing, it is really not an ordinary person." At a glance, this person is a successful Confucian figure, but he has Huang Lao and even the way of Legalism in his bones. And since he was ordered to be in danger, he must also be well versed in the art of war. You can't be cautious when you work under such a person. Such a person is high and powerful, and he is so shrewd, bribery and deception seem unrealistic, if you are interested in the bait in his hand, then you can only use it for it, show real skills, and make achievements. ”

And at this moment, Zhao Ning is precisely interested in the position of Yulin Left Eunuch, who has a salary of 600 stones a year in the hands of this Lord Thorn Shi, and is determined to win.

Zhao Ning thought in his heart, and as soon as he retreated to the door, Zhou Jing stopped him again, "There is another question to test you." There are 70 people who have been recommended this time, and the school will be ordered three days later, how should this official rank the seats for you people, and who should be involved in the decision-making? ”

"Lord Hui: Yasheng once said, 'There are three Venerable Beings in the world: Jue Yi, Tooth One, and De Yi.' This time, the imperial court inspected seventy people at one time, and these people were all grass people in the past, so naturally they could not be ranked according to Juelu; And if you want to rank by virtue, then you can't judge it for a while; Therefore, the king can only settle everyone in the order of the year, so that everyone will naturally be convinced. Zhao Ning stepped forward again and said.

"Oh? By age? Then you are only fifteen years old, don't you want to be at the bottom of the table? ”

"Whoever asks me about it, it's business, and what I answer is public, and Zhao Ning doesn't dare to fake it for personal gain."

"I don't dare to pretend to be public and private, I hope you can do what you say, match your words with deeds, and go down."

"Thank you for your teachings, I'd rather retire." At this point, Zhao Ning took a long look and retreated.

Three days later, November 1, the school field.

Zhao Ning's three hundred-man team was in good spirits, well-armoured, and well-equipped, even compared to the personal guards brought by Lord Assassin Shi from the capital.

On the school field of this point soldier, it is particularly eye-catching.

In fact, this is not surprising, although this time the imperial court took out a 600-stone Yulin Left Eunuch, and ten than 300 stone Yulin Lang as bait, but for those who are really powerful, the opportunity cost of recruiting this brave soldier is still too high. Therefore, there are simply not many people with real strength to apply.

And those who are not afraid to go to the battlefield and are interested in this brave and knowledgeable military science are mostly unable to recruit as many as 300 private soldiers.

In many county seats, even the county magistrates and county lieutenants paid money or coaxed to help the street gangsters and street homeless people recruited by the recruits, barely enough 300 people were sent to fill the number. Where can those people be reliable, and before they arrived in Tancheng, there were already a large number of slips. What's more, some county towns directly sent official documents, saying that the county is small and there are no brave soldiers to recommend.

In addition, almost all of the first county of Guangling has fallen, and the entire eleven counties of Guangling have not implemented this edict at all, and naturally no one has come to recruit.

Therefore, this method that could be entangled with 21,000 troops was calculated in Luojing's court, but in the end only more than 16,000 people were recruited, and the quality was extremely poor.

What is admirable is that even in the face of such a team, Zhou Jing still maintains his usual calmness, which makes people unable to see any emotions.

However, even that smiling face, in the eyes of the more than 16,000 soldiers below, was more terrifying than any fierce god.

In less than half an hour, fifty-seven people have been dragged out and beheaded for various reasons. Lateness, noise, disheveled, unprepared, and contempt for superiors......

At this time, everyone's nerves were tense, for fear that if they accidentally farted, they would be heard by Lord Thorn Shi and lose the guy they were eating.

Only Zhao Ning's people, because they were seriously warned by Zhao Ning face to face one in advance, no one was found faulty. But Zhao Ning himself was also very nervous, if the assassin Shi Da gave him a crime at this time, not to mention that there were three hundred people around him, even if there were three thousand people, he would not be able to save his life.

Fortunately, Zhou Jing didn't take advantage of this to do anything to him.

After the school, excluding those who had not arrived and those who had just been beheaded, there were 54 brave soldiers and more than 16,000 soldiers.

Lord Assassin Shi did not make an incendiary speech as everyone imagined, but only sent someone to announce one thing, "Three days later, the troops will be re-ordered, one hundred and sixty-two hundred-man teams, no one will be missing, and whoever lacks one under his command will not be spared." ”

In the past three days, the thunderous means of the newcomer to assassinate Lord Shi spread, and no one in the entire Xuzhou ground dared to snub the decree of Lord Jun. In the past three days, all the county orders and county lieutenants who have failed to handle the job this time have either been thrown into the state capital prison or have already been on the way to prison.

Three days later, on November 4, the school field.

One hundred and sixty-two teams of hundreds, none of which were vacant.

In the school field of more than 16,000 people, not a single person moved around, and not a single person dared to make a noise without authorization.

After the counting of troops was completed, the fifty-four recommended people entered the big tent in order of age.

Lord Assassin reaffirmed the imperial edict and made a brief pre-war mobilization. He ordered everyone to speak freely and offer counter-insurgency strategies, but these people had already been frightened into dumb by Lord Jun's thunderous methods, who dared to come out and talk nonsense. I thought to myself, if I don't say it well, I might lose my head.

In the silent field, Zhou Jing paced back and forth, bowing his head everywhere he looked.

"Kaiyang Li Yi, what are the countermeasures?"

Seeing that no one spoke, Zhou Jing began to call his name.

As soon as the words came out, I saw a person standing up from the front seat, and made a military salute neatly and solemnly, which seemed very reckless, "The subordinates only obey the order of the king, but the lord has a drive, he will serve his life, even if he is white-bladed and neck-cutter, he will never take a step back!" ”

"Gaoyou Dewey!"

"In order to serve the king, his subordinates will not hesitate to do anything!"

"Suiling Zheng Gu!"

"So-and-so, so-and-so just listen to the adult, and what the adult says." A man in his thirties stammered with a flushed face.

Zhou Jing almost laughed angrily at him, ignored him, and only said coldly, "Pass on my order, and the county commander and county lieutenant will each be fined for one year." ”

Glancing at these guys who were recommended, Zhou Jing felt more and more that one head and two big, such a poor team, I am afraid that there will be no second one in the entire Great Xia Army. Even if he can barely do the order and prohibit, but let him take this group of people to sweep away the anti-thieves, he really has no bottom in his heart.

"Zhou Shu, Z County, Langya Country, Xiaguan, has two strategies to report."

There is a small iron mine in Z County, and the Zhou family is the wealthy businessman who controls the local iron ore vein. The Zhou family has lived in Z County for more than four generations and is a farmer, and it is not a businessman's family, only because of its huge clan, and it was his family who discovered the ore vein back then, so it was able to obtain the government's permission to occupy the ore vein.

Later, although some wealthy businessmen in Tan County went to make up their minds, but the strong dragon could not suppress the head snake, and the Zhou family relied on the many people to survive, and in the end they survived without losing the vein.

Over the years, the Zhou family has gradually become a wealthy family, but after all, the foundation is shallow, and there is no style of poetry and book heirlooms, so except for a few children who are small officials in the county, no one has ever had a serious background and became an official.

Now that he has such an opportunity, he naturally spares no money to make a good deal of the county and recommend the most shrewd and capable one in the clan, that is, this Zhou Shu. Because someone in the family is rich, Zhou Shu's team is naturally quite strong.

"Okay, if you have any good ideas, just tell me." Zhou Jing didn't expect him to say anything insightful, but it's always good for someone to start this.

"Thank you! Xia Guan heard that nine of the eleven counties in Guangling County have fallen, and the anti-thieves, headed by Guo Chun, have gathered a total of 200,000 bandits and homeless people, and the momentum is like a rainbow. At present, our army is less than 20,000, and the disparity in strength is huge, so I am afraid that it is not suitable to enter the army for the time being. When Zhou Shu said this, he saw Lord Thorn Shi glance at him coldly, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

Although he also made friends with wealthy businessmen on weekdays and dealt with the government a lot, Zhou Jing, a big man from the capital, had never been in contact with him after all.

It's just that since he has already stood up, he can't help but finish his words.

"Let the king come from the capital, shoulder the emperor's order, and can not easily enter the army, at this time our army is not strong, if you rush into the army, in case of a war is unfavorable, it will damage the power of heaven, then not only the anti-thief is more difficult to pacify, but also extremely unfavorable to the adult."

"You have thought it through for the official," Zhou Jing glanced at him again, "Then in your opinion, what should you do?" ”

"Now our army is underarmed, but there are two ways. First: the five counties of Xuzhou, except for Guangling County, the remaining four counties are still intact, adults can draw a part of the county soldiers from each of the four counties, each county can draw two or three thousand people, or form an army of 10,000 people; Second: Many of these people here now have the ability to recruit more private soldiers, and if Lord Jun gives the order, it will not be difficult to gather the 20,000 people we should have recruited. These two things are what we can do now, if it takes a few days, using these two methods, a total of 30,000 troops, training neatly, and then Xu Tu Enterprising, then the adults can be more sure of eliminating the anti-thieves. ”

Zhou Jing listened, and was noncommittal, only continued to scan the crowd, until he saw Zhao Ning, who was at the bottom of the seat, he cleared his throat, raised his voice slightly, and said, "Where is the kid who came to report first?" ”

For a while, everyone's eyes were on Zhao Ning.
