Chapter 47: Resoluteness
Li Bingcheng rode on a horse, his left hand was still pressed on his waist, when he came over, he was violent, followed by dozens of Chinese soldiers and personal soldiers, Yang Guoyong was guarding the door, he didn't dare to stop him, he just trotted in front, he wanted to inform Han Xu, but Xiong Tingbi was in the middle again, so he had to let Li Bingcheng ride his horse all the way to the front of the military tent, shouting for Han Xu to come out, and when Han Xu came out to salute, Yang Guoyong had to apologize to Han Xu with his eyes, Han Xu smiled slightly, indicating that it was okay.
If he strictly ordered Yang Guoyong not to let anyone in, Yang Guoyong would of course carry it out, but this kind of unattainable task would be useless except to embarrass his subordinates and lose his prestige.
"Han Xu, you are so bold!"
Li Bingcheng's face rose like a pig's liver, and without waiting for Han Xu to finish the ceremony, he pointed and scolded: "This official sees that you are still martial arts and loyalty, and you have been promoted, and you will be rewarded with a lot of silver, and you will be asked to pick someone to expand your department, where is this official sorry for you, now you are bold and bumping into the official in public, and now people say that I Li is arrogant when I become a general soldier, and indulge my subordinates to be rude, you say, why do you act like this?" ”
Today, Han Xu was summoned Li Bingcheng also knew, after Chen Ce finished speaking, Li Bingcheng also said a few words lightly, Han Xu was so appreciated by Jingluo, Li Bingcheng was not comfortable, although Han Xu was born in his battalion, he did not pick a family member that day, nor did he show grace, he was not a confidant at all, today Han Xu confronted Li Pinghu in public, but it was most of the generals present who were offended, whether those generals were stationed in Liaodong or Liaonan and Liaoxi, they were the backbone of Liaozhen, and it was difficult to offend one. If you offend a group, there will be almost no place for Li Bingcheng.
"The subordinate officials are not arrogant, and the grace of the general soldier to promote and reuse is not taken to heart for a day."
"Then you will go to Deputy General Li and plead guilty to him."
"It's really hard to do." Han Xu's tone was flat, but he said extremely resolutely: "There is nothing wrong with the lower officer, and Deputy General Li is rude to the lower officer, ridiculing and insulting the lower officer and all his subordinates, if the lower official does not take a look, how will he lead the troops in the future, and how will his subordinates treat the lower officials?" ”
Li Bingcheng stared at him and said, "Do you know how many people you need to offend in this case, and it will be difficult for you to have a foothold in all parts of Liao in the future?" Don't think that you can do whatever you want, no matter who comes to be the strategy, Liaozhen has always been the world of our generals, do you really think that you can fight the east and go all the way up? If you don't accept this matter today, and you leave in the future, how will you deal with yourself? ”
Han Xu knelt down on one knee and said calmly: "The lower officials only know how to serve the country, and the rest have nothing to worry about. ”
"Hello, hello." Li Bingcheng laughed angrily, he pulled the horse's head, turned around and said: "Han Xu's official is not embarrassed for you, but the official needs to explain to everyone that you and I have nothing to do with each other." ”
In fact, Han Xu is no longer under Li Bingcheng's command, the military system of the Ming Dynasty is very special, the general soldier said that he commanded the soldiers and horses of a certain place or a certain town, and the real direct subordinate is his own barracks.
Han Xu is already the head of the Xinyong Battalion, not the head of the battalion directly under Li Bingcheng, and if he makes such a fuss today, Li Bingcheng's love for discovering and using him will be gone, and the two will naturally have nothing to do with each other in the future.
"The lower official sends the chief soldier."
After Li Bingcheng left, Xiong Tingbi paced out of the tent, looked at Han Xu and said, "This official only asks, are you really not worried about the future?" ”
Han Xu said: "Xia Guan only wants to serve the country......"
Xiong Tingbi interrupted him and said, "Fart, tell the truth to the old man!" ”
Han Xu was stunned for a while, and then said: "Xia Guan really wants to serve the country, and besides, Xia Guan doesn't want to look up to people everywhere, bow down and be small, since he has been slightly appreciated, Xia Guan will try to make more military merits, at least in the future, he will have the power to protect himself." ”
"You're ambitious!"
Xiong Tingbi didn't say anything more, turned over and left, and after leaving the camp, Liu Zirui said: "What does Dong Weng mean now?" ”
"Han Xu can be of great use!" Xiong Tingbi said: "Within half a year, the old man will ensure that he is promoted to guerrilla and give him a place to garrison." However, to be honest, this person is ambitious, and after arriving at the general army, the old man is worried that he is another Li Chengliang! ”
Liu Zirui said: "Isn't the current Liaodong just missing a Li Chengliang in his prime? ”
"So the old man said he could be of great use." Xiong Tingbi was a little worried in his heart, he didn't say the last sentence in his heart, Han Xu in front of him really made him a little worried, this young general, whether the future can reach the point where it is difficult to control is also very difficult to say!
……
"My lord......" After Xiong Tingbi and the others left, the eyes of Yang Guoyong and the others were full of worry in addition to reverence.
offended Li Pinghu first, and then Li Bingcheng, Xiong Tingbi didn't have a good voice when he left, and everyone couldn't help but be full of worries.
"It doesn't matter." Han Xu smiled and said, "Lord Jingliu is very happy in his heart, everyone go to bed early, and escort Lord Jingliu to the Tiger Skin Post tomorrow morning." ”
"Yes, sir!"
After today's events, the pride and pride in the entire small team have increased again, no one likes to follow a general who is only timid and afraid of things, Han Xu's performance is enough to make everyone feel broken.
Han Xu kept smiling, watching everyone return to the tent to rest, from beginning to end, he didn't explain anything to his subordinates, some things, it was enough for him to know the reason.
Today's events, of course, were intentional on his part.
The situation in Liaodong seems to be getting better and better now, but in fact, Han Xu understands that it is just an illusion, within a few years, Houjin not only won Liaodong, but also Liaozhong and Liaonan, and the Ming Dynasty only had Liaoxi left.
Countless Liao towns retreated from Shanhaiguan to Jinzhou Ningyuan, fighting for power and profit, dividing up the general's household and land, and there are also millions of taels a year to divide the profits.
Under the threat of the Jurchens, the imperial court had to add endowments to raise Liao Town, and the return of Liao Town was the annihilation of the whole army again and again, from the end of Wanli to the Apocalypse to Chongzhen, Liao Zhen did not win a battle except for defending the city, several fiascos including the Battle of Songjin, and the death of tens of thousands of people was tens of thousands of people, and the tens of millions of taels of silver and countless materials of the Ming court were wasted again and again by these generals, and the reinforcements transferred from Xuanda Ji Town, Shaanxi, Sichuan, and Zhejiang were also betrayed by Liao Town again and again. The famous generals of Liaozhen are all a group of cannibals and runaway athletes, they are the best at selling their teammates, and they will be exempted from fighting tough battles before they charge, such a group of people Han Xu feels that they are the most shameless group in the world, and there is no bottom line and lower limit at all! He is now mixed in Liaozhen, and if he wants to break away from the group in the future, he must draw a line with it when he is still in the middle of the group at this time, and Shangguan will naturally consider it when he hires people.
The most direct benefit is that it can further consolidate his position in Xiong Tingbi's heart, Xiong Tingbi wants to use him, and Han Xu will show him.
Even if there are some negative effects, it is worth it compared to the near-term benefits!
