Chapter 0166 - Right Arm
Pei Renji stroked his beard and smiled, "I have also admired General Zhang's prestige for a long time." ”
Pei Renji is about fifty years old, tall, and it can be seen that he was also a beautiful man when he was young, and his son Pei Xingyan looks slightly similar, and the outline is more obvious, but more like his other son Pei Xingjian, although he is now older, he has added a mature and steady temperament.
"General Zhang, please take a seat!"
Pei Renji politely invited Zhang Xuan to sit down, a soldier served them tea, Pei Xing saluted and slowly retreated, Zhang Xuan smiled and said: "Linglang's martial arts are the best of the three armies, is it a family martial art?" ”
The reason why Zhang Xuan asked this was because he found that Pei Xingjian's martial arts were very ordinary, and it could be seen that the Pei family had a little family martial arts, but he would never be able to cultivate a peerless general like Pei Xingyan.
Although Zhang Xuan's question was a little abrupt, Pei Renji didn't care, after all, Zhang Xuan praised his son's martial arts for being the best in the three armies, and he smiled slightly: "Presumably General Zhang also saw that the dog's martial arts are indeed not a family heirloom, he was taught by Master Zhiyun of Wutai Mountain, and of course it is also related to the fact that the dog's qualifications are slightly stronger than ordinary people." ”
"I see!"
Zhang Xuan nodded, and was silent for a while, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere in the big tent was a little awkward.
The reason why Pei Renji wanted to see Zhang Xuan was because yesterday he received a quick letter from Luoyang from the head of the family, Pei Ju, in which Pei Ju praised Zhang Xuan, saying that he was a great talent and would achieve great things, and hinted that Pei Renji had wooed Zhang Xuan in the hope of installing excellent Pei family children in Zhang Xuan's army.
Although Pei Ju did not name him, Pei Renji still understood what the head of the family meant, and the head of the family wanted to arrange Yuanqing under Zhang Xuan's men.
Pei Renji has a total of three sons, and the eldest son, Pei Xinghei, studied literature. At present, he is the Cheng of Wenxi County, the second son Pei Xingjian learned martial arts, followed the head of the family, and the third son Pei Xingyan is only eighteen years old, but his martial arts are excellent. I have been in the army for three years.
Pei Renji has the greatest expectations for his third son, of course he hopes that his son can do something big, get ahead in the future, and glorify his ancestors, but the head of the family asked Yuanqing to follow Zhang Xuan, Pei Renji is still a little hesitant. This is related to his son's future, and he has to think carefully.
But the head of the family has an arrangement, and Pei Renji must obey, although Pei Renji thinks about it repeatedly and decides to use a compromise method. Let his son follow Jang Hyun temporarily, and if it is not appropriate, he can also come back.
Pei Renji said with a smile: "I asked the general to come over because the marshal told me one thing today, he is going to transfer 1,400 people from the Flying Eagle Army to supplement the general's team, and the specific plan is for the marshal to let me arrange, I just want to ask the general, which branch of the army the general wants the soldiers I to allocate will be biased into." Are there any special requirements? ”
Zhang Xuan was overjoyed, Zhang Xutuo was really efficient, and he began to allocate troops for himself. He had already thought about it in his heart, Zhang Xutuo's spearmen were famous all over the world, Zhang Xuan hurriedly smiled and said: "If I can, I hope to be mainly spear soldiers, there are no special requirements, I just hope that the soldiers can be young and strong." ”
Bae In-ki laughed. This Zhang Xuan is very smart, and he pointed out that he is the elite of the Flying Eagle Army. He nodded and smiled: "That's what the marshal means, to the general's elite soldiers." In addition, Inuko Yuanqing admired the general very much, and he proposed to me that he was willing to follow the general to train for a year or two, and the general would see if he could——"
Zhang Xuan was overjoyed, if Pei Xingyan was willing to follow him, it would of course be a great thing, and he immediately agreed, "I believe that General Pei Xiao will follow me and will not let him down." ”
At this moment, a soldier outside the door shouted: "The handsome man has arrived!" ”
Pei Renji and Zhang Xuan hurriedly got up, only to see the handsome Zhang Xutuo walking into the big tent quickly, and the two bowed and saluted, "See the handsome!" ”
"Huh! I didn't interrupt your conversation! Zhang Xutuo walked into the big tent and smiled heartily.
"Where is the big marshal, please take a seat!"
Pei Renji smiled and asked Zhang Xutuo to sit down, and ordered the soldiers to serve tea, Zhang Xutuo waved his hand and asked Zhang Xuan to sit down too, he groaned and said to Zhang Xuan: "I want to tell you a piece of news that may disappoint you." ”
Zhang Xuan had a bad feeling in his heart, and nodded, "Boss, please speak!" ”
Zhang Xutuo smiled slightly: "Actually, this news is a good thing for us, I have been looking forward to it for a long time, the Holy Lord has appointed Feng Xiaoci, the general of the Right Hou Wei, to serve as the Qinghe Tongshu, establish the Qinghe Army, and let him eliminate Zhang Jincheng, Gao Shida and Dou Jiande." ”
This news made Zhang Xuan indeed a little disappointed, he asked to come to the Flying Eagle Army, one of the reasons was that he wanted to clean up Zhang Jincheng and avenge Qinghe County, so he proposed to garrison the northern part of Qi County, that is, he wanted to garrison Qinghe County, but now the imperial court actually let Feng Xiaoci serve as the guard of Qinghe, this news came really suddenly.
Zhang Xutuo smiled again: "There is another news that you may be pleased with, the front army that came to Hu'er has not been disbanded, except for the two armies of you and Yuwen Chengdu, the remaining more than 20,000 troops have been handed over to Feng Xiaoci and formed as the Qinghe Army." ”
If this news had been told to Jang Hyun before, maybe Jang Hyun would have been very happy, but now he is not in the mood, he just nodded silently.
Pei Renji next to him was also in a heavy mood, Qinghe County and Pingyuan County were originally in charge of them, but now the imperial court has set up a Qinghe Tongshou, which obviously cuts down the sphere of influence of their Flying Eagle Army and limits them to the south of the Yellow River, I don't know if this is the meaning of the military department, or if the saint is dissatisfied with them.
However, Zhang Xutuo didn't care about the shrinking of his sphere of influence, he was more concerned about how to suppress the bandits, the establishment of the Qinghe Army undoubtedly solved their worries in the north, so that they could concentrate on exterminating the bandits in Gaomi County and Donglai County, he smiled and said: "Now we don't have to think so much for the time being, reorganize the army for a month, and prepare to launch a winter offensive." ”
Zhang Xutuo patted Zhang Xuan's shoulder again, and said seriously: "Integrate the army well, I hope your army can become our eagle crown army." ”
Zhang Xuan's army was stationed in the northwest of the barracks, Zhang Xutuo specially carved out nearly 300 acres of land for him, set up 500 big tents, and erected three big flags in front of the big tent, the military flag of the Great Sui, the battle flag of the Flying Eagle Army and the general flag of Zhang Xuan, there were originally five battalions under the Flying Eagle Army, which belonged to five tooth generals, and now Zhang Xuan is the sixth battalion, with 3,000 troops.
In the afternoon, the spearmen drawn from each battalion arrived at the sixth battalion one after another, a total of 1,400 people, except for Pei Yuanqing, a captain, the rest of the highest military rank is the brigade commander, but it can also be seen that Zhang Xutuo's kindness, he gave the army to Zhang Xuan, but did not control Zhang Xuan's army.
This is also the main reason why Jang Hyun is willing to follow Jang Sutuo, Jang Sutuo's kindness and magnanimity make everyone who follows him grateful, although not necessarily loyal, but at least no one is willing to speak ill of him.
In the big tent, Zhang Xuan is discussing with Wei Yunqi the restructuring of the army, and now he has 30 brigade commanders and six captains, which has doubled in size.
Wei Yunqi understood what Zhang Xuan meant, and he smiled slightly: "If you are directly promoted to a general, the military department may not be able to approve it, but you can use the method of setting up partial generals, and the official position is still the captain, but the military position can be promoted to partial general, and the general will promote two captains as partial generals." ”
Zhang Xuan took a few steps and said: "I consider that each general is in charge of a thousand soldiers, but the cavalry regiment and the logistics regiment are directly under my jurisdiction, the captain of the cavalry regiment is still served by Chen Xu, renamed the Eagle Cavalry Army, and the logistics regiment I am ready to change its name to the Xuanwu Army, commanded by Shen Guang, including the gang leader, baggage, military craftsmen, cangyu, scouts, etc., the left and right sides will be the Snapdragon Army and the Tiger Army, and my goal is to hope that my army will become the army of the Eagle Crown." ”
"The general's idea is very good, so that the loyalty of the soldiers can be more condensed and fight for the honor of their own army, but I am more concerned about the promotion of the captain, who the general is going to promote as a partial general, not only to have enough leadership, but also to be expected by the public, I believe that the general has a candidate."
Jang Hyun nodded, he did think of the right person.
"One is Wei Chigong, the other is Pei Xingyan, I have to give Pei Renji a little face, don't I?" Zhang Xuan said with a smile.
"But does the general think they qualify?"
Zhang Xuan slowly walked to the front of the big tent, stared at the outside of the tent and said, "If it means that everyone expects it, I think they are completely in line." ”
In the open space covering an area of dozens of acres outside the big rise, thousands of soldiers gathered around, shouting hoarsely, cheering for the fighting competition of a pair of generals.
On the left is Wei Chi Gong, he made a hundred-pound wrought iron rod, his wrought iron rod is no longer the one before, he remodeled, made of good iron, the front end is a blue-faced fanged ghost, the iron rod is as long as one foot and two feet, as thick as an arm, Yu Chi Gong named it Wei Tuo staff.
Yu Chi Gong has a purple and gold whip on his back, a black armor in his black armor, riding on a strong war horse, like a giant spirit god descending to earth, Yu Chi Gong is famous for his strength and bravery, and is praised as a giant spirit god by the soldiers.
Opposite him is known as one of the two fierce Pei Xingyan of the Flying Eagle Army, and the other fierce is Luo Shixin, nicknamed Meng Ben of this world, Pei Xingyan is known as the white horse silver hammer, holding a one-to-one hundred and sixty pounds of eight-edged plum blossom bright silver hammer, jade lion under the crotch, silver helmet and silver armor soap robe, handsome appearance, heroic and upright, majestic.
Pei Xingyan hit his hammer with a double hammer, 'Dang! With a loud bang, he laughed and said, "Brother Wei Chi, let the horses fight!" ”
The reason for the competition between the two is very simple, because of the wrist breaking, Wei Chigong and the new dozen brigade commanders tried to break their wrists, and everyone took turns to fight, but no one could win him, Pei Xingyan also broke a tie with him, Pei Xingyan was young and vigorous, and put forward a proposal to compete on the horse.
Although Wei Chigong is rude on the outside, he is actually as careful as a hair, Pei Xingyan actually made a double hammer of one hundred and sixty catties, which is not something he can fight against, but Pei Xingyan's single hammer is only eighty catties, which makes Yu Chigong still have a glimmer of hope.
Wei Chigong sneered, waved the Wei Tuo staff in his hand, a black shadow flashed, and he galloped towards Pei Xingyan. (To be continued)
