Chapter 45: Conflict
Xiong Tingbi did not travel in a sedan chair like ordinary civil officials, he rode a tall jujube red horse, surrounded by five or six of his cronies, and about twenty personal guards, and there was no one else.
Looking at the scene in Fengjibao, Xiong Tingbi's face was expressionless, and there was no joy in his heart.
Recently, he has sent several high-grade civil officials to travel everywhere in a row, but several civil officials have turned back halfway, and no one dares to go, and some even cry on the road...... It was supposed to boost morale, but it backfired.
Xiong Tingbi was angry and decided to patrol by himself, he had been patrolling in Liaodong for many years, and he had traveled everywhere, even riding alone, but this time was different from that year, this time he went to Fushun Pass, although the enemy may not be big, and only Xiong Tingbi had this courage.
"Knock on Lord Jinglue!"
Five or six generals are in the front, the adjutant generals and staff generals are in the back, the rest of the governors and garrisons are in the back, and the battalion officers are thousands of general commanders, and they are not close to the side at all, and more than 300 military attaches are densely packed with military attachΓ©s kneeling on the side of the road to salute.
"Everyone is exempt from courtesy, this scripture is to patrol and prepare, watch the drills of each battalion, see if the soldiers and horses are strong, the generals should be attentive in these things, etiquette or something, but there is enough, it is much better to do your duty than to take a roll call here in this official."
Xiong Tingbi's words were really sour and spicy, the generals present smiled embarrassedly on their faces, and the officers below the middle level all looked frightened. What Xiong Tingbi wanted to investigate was what they were most afraid of...... Every battalion is eating empty quotas, the generals are negligent in training the battalion, the morale of the army is low, and the morale is unstable.
Xiong Tingbi glanced at everyone present with a majestic gaze, and said slowly: "Liaodong doesn't care about the previous affairs, since then, the patrol will be carried out frequently, as long as it is found that the battalions are still unchanging, the generals with the battalions will be severely punished, and everyone can now return to the camp with their subordinates, and there is no need to wait and follow here!" β
Everyone knows his temper, and they also know that he is resolute and resolute, without discussion, everyone is beating a small drum in their hearts, knowing that the future will be sad, military law must be strict, and control must be strict, some people scolded in their hearts, but on the surface they were all very respectful, and after Xiong Tingbi entered Fengji Fort, everyone dispersed randomly.
"Hot face sticks to a cold ass, why bother."
"Lao Hu, can we rush to Shenyang at noon, how about a table in Juxian Building?"
"No, Lao Tzu wrote a note and asked those popular top players to come up and accompany us."
"Cheng, let's hurry!"
"We don't want to be here, let's go drink, eat, and then talk about the rectification of the camp."
"Isn't it just a three-day small exercise and a five-day big exercise, let's get this without any difficulty, pay for the equipment, what is the difficulty of training?"
"Hehe, it's useless to talk to me, and talk to Jingluo."
"Grandma...... Ah, where do mosquito bites come from in this weather, it's so fucking unlucky. β
The generals and officials are full of uncomfortable, everyone is running over, but it is such a big nail, and it is not easy to go back, before you can use the excuse of insufficient pay and equipment to ignore the military discipline of the battalion, and there is no practice, now Xiong Tingbi took over Liaodong, and the DPRK kept sending military pay and materials over, everyone has no excuse, and they are afraid that Xiong Tingbi is majestic and resolute, so they will have to suffer a lot of hardship, and the partial battalion soldiers are used to indulgence, and it is really difficult to practice all at once, everyone is displeased, passing by, Looking at Han Xu and the others again, the eyes were very unkind.
"Why are you so arrogant?"
"Our Liao Town produces talents, and people have the merit of beheading."
"Join his mother, when did it become the ability to cut off more than a dozen Dongyu heads? Our family has been in the door for more than 200 years, and my father followed Li Dashuai back then, and the head of the beheading was 1,000 years smaller. β
"I can't say, it's not the situation of Li Dashuai back then, all cats and dogs have come out."
"This Liao Town is still our boss now, aren't we? Don't fall into Lao Tzu's camp, when the time comes, see him so arrogant. If you want to say it, you should talk to Lao Li to see how his subordinates are so arrogant. β
"If you don't take it for a few nights, you will be embarrassed to wear iron armor? I followed the handsome back then, and the eight thousand iron horsemen were all wearing heavy armor, and everyone was a hero, and these kittens and dogs also regarded themselves as heroes? What a joke. β
Ninety percent of those who say strange things are Liaozhen generals, Liaozhen even suffered defeats, losing face, but suddenly a Han Xu made military merits and became famous, and now he appeared in front of Fengji Fort with his subordinates.
Hearing the last few words, the He family brothers, Yang Guoyong and the others were all flushed with anger, but they were humble officials, and the least they spoke was guerrillas, and the difference in status was too great, and no one dared to say anything.
"Everyone is steady." Han Xu looked at his subordinates and said, "In the future, I will be rewarded for my military merits, and it is useless to say anything else, but it depends on who has more credit." β
He didn't think about lowering the sound, the generals present heard it, of course, Han Xu's subordinates heard it most sincerely, and everyone straightened their waists.
The generals of Liaozhen who were present did not expect that a small Qianhu general would dare to cut their face in person, although he did not speak to one person, but it was like a slap in the face of everyone, and the generals who spoke at the right time all showed anger on their faces, and a hot-tempered lieutenant general was already planning to ride his horse over, and the horse whip in his hand was also raised, ready to whip Han Xu in public.
The hierarchy of the Ming army is very strict, if it is under the command of this guerrilla, it is said that the general general, even the general garrison can also use the whip to speak, but when he came over, Han Xu pulled out the saber on his waist, and when he saw that the main general was like this, He Qingyun and the others also showed all their weapons, crossbows, flying axes, and spears, plus the iron armor, the momentum suddenly overwhelmed the guerrilla and his subordinates.
"A slight order!"
When the tension was tense, a herald Tang Ma rode his horse and rode over, shouting as he ran: "Let's bring President Han Xu into the fort to meet!" β
This Tang Ma ran and shouted, at this time there were many generals everywhere, and the flags were everywhere, and he didn't recognize a small boss, so he had to tear open his voice and shout, and when he saw the situation here, Tang Ma opened his mouth wide in shock, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Today, there is a little scripture to support you," the deputy general got down the steps, and said to Han Xu with a whip in his hand: "Lao Tzu's name is Li Pinghu, and next time I will take your life." β
This person's eyebrows turned white for most of the time, Han Xu had heard of this person, he was born in the Li Chengliang family, accumulated merit to the deputy general, and was the peripheral backbone of the Li family.
Han Xu smiled coldly, and said with his hand: "Waiting for Gao Ming at any time." β
Li Ping was stunned with anger, but he didn't dare to step forward to trouble Han Xu again, so he had to watch Han Xu and the others leave with fire in his eyes.
He Qingyun, Ren Shangwu and others had a lot of troubles, and when they passed by, they deliberately squinted at Li Pinghu's side, and the other party was angry.
β¦β¦
"The last general will knock on Lord Jinglu."
This is the second time Han Xu has seen Xiong Tingbi, this time Xiong Tingbi did not wear a red official robe, nor did he sit on a python, a jade belt, and even a black gauze hat, but only a corner scarf and a modified cotton robe, the cuffs and hem were shortened, which was conducive to horse riding. Rushing all the way from Liaoyang, the weather was bitterly cold, the snow had not melted along the way, the sky was overcast, the wind was blowing, Xiong Tingbi's face, hands and feet were red from the cold, but he sat still, and seemed to be not aware of the pain at all.
Han Xu came in to salute, Xiong Tingbi raised his hand, signaling Han Xu to get up and stand aside, He Shixian, the chief soldier in the hall, was speaking, and then continued: "Everyone understands Jinglu's opinion, this movement is not small, the whole Liao knows Jinglue's courage and determination, so why take risks?" Since it is said that Liaoyang is a first-class important place, and it is not comparable to Shenyang and other places, adults should sit in Liaoyang, and it is not appropriate to move lightly. β
