Chen Fei looked at the man in front of him who was called the Tang Dynasty Army God in later generations, if this man was recorded in history, he should be in his fifties, but because he was malnourished in ancient times and he fought all year round, he was a little old, and people in his sixties and seventies in later generations were younger than him. And this person has been mentioned in many novels in later generations, and he is also the person with the most meritorious and the best military ability among the Tang Dynasty generals. Later, he also wrote his own art of war, and his apprentices Li Ji and Su Dingfang were also later famous generals. And half of his apprentice Hou Junji later became his successor, but Hou Junji's ending was not very good, because he rebelled with the crown prince Li Chengqian, so he was killed. And the name of this Tang Dynasty military god is also very familiar to later generations - Li Jing. He is now the secretary of the Ministry of War, that is, the leader of Chen Fei's Ministry of War, and Chen Fei's boss.
"I've seen General Lee!" Chen Fei said.
Chen Fei had to say hello first, because he, a newly appointed official, had to pay a visit to his boss first. And Li Jing is also the secretary of the Ministry of War, of course, he has to come to him to report, and then prepare to take office. What's more, Chen Fei also wants to meet the demeanor of this No. 1 general in the Tang Dynasty, so he must come this time. And Li Jing will take over the position of prime minister after Du Ruhui's death in the future, so it is very necessary to have some good relations with him now. After all, except for Chen Fei, no one could predict that Du Ruhui would die young in the future, and no one would realize that Li Jing would be able to take over Du Ruhui's position. Li Jing was almost sixty years old at that time, and his energy was already a little lacking. Moreover, Li Jing is a military attaché, if Li Jing is allowed to take over the position of prime minister, it will be a general and a prime minister, which is very suspicious of the king.
However, since Chen Fei also knew that Li Jing would be able to become a scholar in the future, he naturally wanted to find a way to have a good relationship. Let him be able to help himself later. After all, officialdom pays attention to following the right person, rather than thinking about how to fight for a bloody road by yourself. As long as you follow the right person, the future will definitely be very good. Chen Fei was able to predict that Du Ruhui would die young, and he mentioned that he would befriend the future prime minister, so would he still be afraid that he would have no future?
Li Jing also looked at Chen Fei and found that Chen Fei was very young, at most in his twenties. For Li Jing, Chen Fei is of course very young. At such a young age, he has the position of a five-grade official, which is actually very remarkable. Even many of the founders of the country were not able to become five-rank officials in their twenties. Chen Fei is already ahead of many people. It has almost become the leader of the younger generation. If nothing else, Chen Fei's future will definitely be very good. As long as you don't make mistakes, you can at least become one of the nine Qings in this life. If you can do it better, then maybe you can be the prime minister of Shangshu.
"Chief Chen Cao, you were also the guard of the left prison and joined the army, and you were also in charge of ordnance. However, now it is responsible for the ordnance of the whole country, and it is no longer the ordnance of the Praetorian Guard in the past, and the duty is much more important. Li Jing said.
This "Cao Chang" is not the Cao Chang of the Japanese army in later generations, this Cao Chang is the Cao Chang under Shangshu Province who originated in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. And now in the various second-level departments under the six departments of the Tang Dynasty, those officials can be called Cao Chang, because they are equivalent to the first Cao Zhi chief in the past. So Li Jing called Chen Fei Cao Chang, and there was no problem with this.
Chen Fei immediately replied, "General Li." In the past, I was also in charge of ordnance, and in the past, I was only in charge of the ordnance of the left prison guard, but now I am in charge of the ordnance of the whole country, and I deeply feel that my duty is important. So I'll be sure to prepare well. will not live up to the emperor's trust. ”
In fact, Chen Fei didn't expect that he would go around and come back, and his first position was in charge of ordnance management. And now he is still in charge of ordnance management. However, in the past, he was only responsible for the ordnance management of a Praetorian Guard, but now he is in charge of the ordnance management of the whole country, and the meaning of this is obviously different, so Chen Fei is equivalent to being promoted. The significance of managing the national ordnance is certainly very different from the ordnance of the Praetorian Guard in the past, and the responsibility is much greater. Even, if nothing else, then the next must be very busy, after all, there is about to prepare for a national war, and the national war needs a huge amount of ordnance! If you can't produce your own ordnance by then, then you really have to be shirked by the former general, and then pushed to him.
There was a big difference between the Tang Dynasty and the later Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, and in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, the status of military attachés was relatively high. If the military attache loses the battle, it is likely to shift the responsibility to the civilian officials, which is different from those strange things in the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties. The three dynasties of the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties were all noble and lowly, and if the civilian officials failed to command blindly, they would also push the responsibility to the military attaché, and they had no responsibility for themselves. In the Tang Dynasty, on the contrary, civil officials must not think about going to war, otherwise once they fail, they will be a black pot and angry bag. Especially Chen Fei, who is in charge of ordnance, if someone shirks the responsibility to you at that time, then you really can't argue, after all, what is the trouble of wanting to add to the crime? People can say that the quality of the ordnance is not good, and there is no place to reason for that. As long as there is an ordnance problem, then I am afraid that it can affect the victory or defeat of a battle, but a battle can affect a war, and a war can even affect the future of a country.
Chen Fei even heard that there was a foreign king who had a problem with the horseshoe, so he finally dropped his horse on the battlefield and lost the victory he had won. And to lose this victory, and then to lose the throne, very sad! Therefore, there is no doubt about the importance of ordnance, and Chen Fei's position and responsibility are very important, and he cannot be neglected at all.
Soon, Chen Fei and Li Jing met with him, and Chen Fei could go to his position to take office. As for Li Jing, he didn't say anything to Chen Fei, because Chen Fei didn't have any friendship with him, Li Jing just told Chen Fei to let him be in charge of ordnance production, so that he could manage the ordnance well and not have problems. Li Jing is also an officer, of course, he can't tolerate a problem with the ordnance, otherwise the consequences will be very serious. And the three provinces and six departments of the Tang Dynasty all worked in the palace, so Chen Fei was also fortunate to work in the palace. If you say it, it is very proud, after all, it is to work in the palace, that is, to work by the side of the Son of Heaven, what a glory!
