Although it is not clear why Zeng Qi said this, since the other party expressed kindness to himself, if he did not accept it, it would be too ignorant to raise it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Therefore, after only a short hesitation, Yang Xingguo gave Zengqi a guarantee that there was no guarantee......

"Please rest assured...... From now on, my Liaodong Army will be the Liaodong Army of adults...... In order to live up to the high expectations of the adults, our Liaodong Army will continue to fight Lao Maozi and strive to drive Lao Maozi out of Liaodong as soon as possible......"

"Good...... What this official wants is Lord Yang, you ...... this sentence," Zeng Qi replied with a satisfied face.

Then, the tone of the conversation changed and continued: "Time is limited, and today's meeting between Lord Yang and this official cannot be revealed...... In order to avoid the Russians finding out the clues, here we are for today! ”

After speaking, regardless of Yang Xingguo's reaction, Zeng Qi ordered the commander of the new army to make a deal with Yang Xingguo.

As for Zeng Qi himself, he quickly left the valley with a few guards and disappeared from Yang Xingguo's field of vision.

As soon as Zeng Qi left the valley, the confidant master who had been following Zeng Qi asked with a puzzled face: "My lord, isn't this Yang Xingguo just a group training envoy who does not enter the stream, why is the adult so polite to him, and he still woos him......

"You don't understand...... Zengqi's eyes quickly shot out two fine lights, and he said with a serious face.

"You haven't been in the army, so you can't see the strength of the Liaodong Army......"

"This official can be sure that the more than 1,000 Liaodong troops brought by Yang Xingguo, both in terms of combat effectiveness and equipment, far exceed the new army that the imperial court is training ......"

"In the past, the official always believed that the reason why Yang Xingguo was able to defeat Lao Maozi was due to luck...... Now it seems that Yang Xingguo is not relying on luck, but on strength......"

"If there are more than 3,000 troops like the Liaodong Army, maybe it can change the increasingly chaotic situation in Liaodong......"

In a word, with the official's eyes, the official can confidently say that the future of this son is limitless...... Now befriending him and wooing him, for this official, there is only good and no harm......"

Speaking of this, Zeng Qi seemed to think of something, frowned, and continued......

"And, as a staff member, don't forget...... This is Liaodong, where war may occur at any time, not Jiangnan. ”

"In the war-torn land of Liaodong, no matter how high your grade is, if there is no army to protect you, you can only be slaughtered."

"If you have an army in your hands, even if it is a non-mainstream regimental training, you can control your own destiny...... And this is the reason why this official wants to vigorously develop the new army......"

"Yang Xingguo has an army in his hands, and it is a strong army, a strong army that even Lao Maozi can defeat again and again. In Liaodong, where the situation is chaotic, as long as he is willing, and the time is ripe, the imperial court may give him a high-ranking official at any time that you can't think of. ”

Of course, Yang Xingguo didn't know what Zeng Qi was thinking at this moment, and he didn't know that Zeng Qi was so optimistic about him.

As soon as the transaction was completed, a group of young people who were not much different in age from Yang Xingguo were brought to Yang Xingguo.

Looking at the confusion in front of him, there is unruliness...... Twenty people with various expressions.

Yang Xingguo was very happy.

In Yang Xingguo's opinion, no matter what these people think at the moment, as long as they are in their own hands, they have a way to make them return to their hearts and use them for me.

Soon, an idea appeared in Yang Xingguo's mind.

After a strange smile quickly flashed at the corner of his mouth, Yang Xingguo said directly: "You are all talents sent abroad by the imperial court and returned from abroad...... It stands to reason that the imperial court should entrust everyone with important tasks. But the court didn't, do you know why? ”

Seeing that everyone's eyes were attracted by him, Yang Xingguo's words changed and continued: "I know, and the reason is very simple, so simple that everyone can't believe it......"

"You have learned all of Western studies, and the court is worried that after entrusting you with important tasks, you will bring bad officialdom. Not only that, but the current bureaucrats of the imperial court will not allow you to enter the imperial court and break the rules of the imperial court for hundreds of years......"

Seeing the twenty students, there were thoughtful expressions on their faces.

Yang Xingguo continued: "Also, you were originally working in the Shengjing General's Mansion, but why did you appear here, do you know the reason......

"To tell you the truth, it was the Shengjing General's Mansion who thought it was too expensive to raise you, so he sold you to me......"

"Do you know how much silver the Shengjing General's Mansion sold you? 60,000 taels of silver, 500 Mosina rifles, and 25,000 rounds of ammunition...... Suffice it to say, General Shengjing's Mansion has made a lot of money from you. ”

"Sell...... How can it be? How could the imperial court sell us......" A young man with an unruly face, like an angry lion, said with a look of shame.

As soon as he finished speaking, the others also started scolding.

And scolding and scolding, these people slowly shifted their target to Yang Xingguo.

"Who are you, how do you know so clearly, we don't believe that the court will sell us?" It was still this unruly young man who asked loudly at Yang Xingguo.

"I ...... Yang Xingguo, the commander of the Liaodong Army, is the one who bought you. You should have heard of the Liaodong Army, it is an army that defeated Lao Maozi several times in a row, and the heavy encirclement and suppression ......" Yang Xingguo replied very simply, wanting to look at the first reaction of these people after hearing the Liaodong Army.

What made Yang Xingguo happy was that the young man who was still unruly just now immediately became worshipful after hearing the three words of Liaodong Army.

Facing Yang Xingguo, he said with a bright face: "We have heard of the Liaodong Army, looking at the entire Qing Dynasty, the Liaodong Army dares to fight with Lao Maozi, and has defeated Lao Maozi many times...... You're all heroes......"

"Also, you are really the commander of the Liaodong Army, and you really bought us from General Shengjing's mansion."

After getting Yang Xingguo's reconfirmation, this young man directly said something that surprised everyone.

"Since you are the commander of the Liaodong Army, and you bought me again...... Then my life Li Zhilong will be yours from now on. However, I have one request, I want to join the Liaodong Army, and I want to go to the battlefield to fight Lao Maozi......"

"Li Zhilong, you are crazy...... They are the Liaodong Army, and if they join the Liaodong Army, isn't that death? As soon as Li Zhilong's decision was spoken, a young man next to him opened his mouth to persuade.

"Also, although the Liaodong Army is very good at beating Lao Maozi...... However, the imperial court did not really recognize the Liaodong Army. To put it mildly, the Liaodong Army is a private army......"

Just when his companion was about to continue to persuade him, Li Zhilong, who had already made a decision, directly interrupted: "You should know how I was driven out of the new army...... I studied military affairs abroad so that my country would not be bullied by foreign powers. After joining the new army, he asked the officers to fight many times and beat Lao Maozi. However, the Shangguan not only did not approve it, but also drove me out of the new army......"

"I've seen it through, follow the new army, and never think about beating Lao Maozi......"

"Only when the Liaodong Army joins the Liaodong Army, can I, Li Zhilong, beat Lao Maozi happily......"
