Chapter 599: Military Power

"Eldest prince, General Hansheng and I have completely controlled the county soldiers, and we have come to restore our lives!"

Jiangxia was too guarded by the mansion, and Liu Pan replied to Liu Qi in high spirits.

"Well done!"

Liu Qi half-leaned on the couch, his complexion was much better than when he first met, and encouraged: "The general must make persistent efforts to make up for the gap as soon as possible, the county guard will cooperate well, and there will be no shortage of grain, grass and ordnance!" ”

Startled!

Liu Pan raised his head and said puzzledly: "Eldest prince, isn't it the county soldiers and horses that control the entire Jiangxia next?" ”

This is the most normal step to grasp Jiangxia's military power.

"I got accurate information, Cao Mengde's hundreds of thousands of troops are about to enter Jingzhou!"

Liu Qi's tone was calm, but what he said was a thunderstorm on the ground, and he asked indifferently: "If Cao Mengde's northern soldiers swept in, would the general still have time to gather the disobedient soldiers and horses in the rest of the counties?" ”

Speaking of this, he paused, and said leisurely: "You must know that the behavior of the two generals has caused the dissatisfaction of the local heroes in Jiangxia!" ”

That is to say, he has no feelings for the so-called family Haoqiang, and if he changes to the original owner, he is afraid that he will have concerns.

Coupled with the 'mention' of Liu Dang, the commander of the guards, I am afraid that at this time, I am already dissatisfied with Liu Pan and Huang Zhong.

This is the powerful means of the family, which is pervasive and invincible.

Hearing this, Liu Pan's heart sank, the smug look on his face disappeared, and he hurriedly arched his hand and said in a deep voice: "I will not disappoint you!" ”

Obviously, he was very jealous of the local heroes in Jiangxia.

It's not that they are afraid of their strength, but that they dare not underestimate their influence on the local heroes, and the previous painful experience is vivid.

It was the late Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao, who couldn't keep his official position as a nephew with great achievements when he was sick, which shows the strength of the Jingzhou family.

He was a little worried that Liu Qi would be dissatisfied, after all, he was not familiar with the situation in Jiangxia when he first arrived.

"General rest assured!"

Liu Qi saw this guy's thoughts at a glance, and said indifferently: "Now is the critical moment of life and death, since the two generals were invited by me to come over to take charge of the army, they are naturally trustworthy, at least more trusted than the Jingzhou family!" ”

Liu Pan's heart was shocked, and he suddenly remembered what happened to the eldest son Liu Qi, and suddenly calmed down and relaxed, and he didn't have to worry about the threat from Jiangxia Haoqiang for the time being.

At the same time, I felt that the burden on my body was heavy......

As long as he thought that he might soon be able to confront the male soldiers who dominated the north, Liu Pan was excited and at the same time under great pressure.

With his understanding of the Jingzhou army, he doesn't think that the Jingzhou army, which has been abandoned for a long time, can withstand the elite of Prime Minister Cao Cheng's department, and it is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of combat effectiveness and numbers.

The key is that Jingzhou does not have such an amazing commander, and those generals from wealthy families do not have the determination and courage to fight to the death.

I believe that as soon as Cao Jun comes, these generals of Jingzhou will definitely abandon Liu Cong, who has just taken office, and surrender to Prime Minister Cao Cheng, who has just taken office.

Thinking of this, Liu Pan reacted suddenly, the eldest prince in front of him must have known it, otherwise he would not rashly invite him and Huang Hansheng to help.

In other words, the Jingzhou family at this time could not get the trust of the eldest prince at all.

"Do it well, if you can get through this difficulty, you will definitely not disappoint the two generals!"

Liu Qi opened his mouth indifferently and promised: "If things are not harmonious, I still need two generals to protect my safety!" ”

Liu Pan's heart was shocked, thinking about the huge danger he was about to face, and any pride and ambition had dissipated, he nodded solemnly and said: "If we really get to that point, General Hansheng and I will definitely not give up!" ”

"I believe in the two generals!"

……

With the full support of Taishou Liu Qi, Liu Pan and Huang Zhong immediately let go of their hands and feet to do special work.

Drill soldiers, recruit new soldiers, improve combat power of thieves in the summer and so on, it is easy to pull up an army of 10,000 people.

The loss of a large amount of money and ordnance materials, coupled with the majestic power of the army of 10,000 people, can make the local heroes in Jiangxia envious and their eyes are red.

They have a close relationship with the former Taishou Huang Zu, and the children of the family are the backbone of Huang Zu's army, and they have long regarded the county soldiers as something in their pockets.

At the beginning, the eldest prince Liu Qi had to rely on their strength to maintain the stability of the Jiangxia soldiers, which made them very complacent.

Who wants to change in a blink of an eye, the eldest prince actually invited Liu Pan and Huang Zhong from Jingnan, directly controlled the main force of the county soldiers, and left the local heroes aside.

Seeing that the county soldiers had replenished their personnel, and seeing that the ordnance, grain and grass in the warehouse were continuously transported to the barracks, they quit.

Several powerful families who were very influential in Jiangxia joined forces to go to the Taishou Mansion to discuss an explanation.

After seeing Liu Qi, they immediately expressed their unhappiness in their hearts, hoping that the eldest prince could treat everyone equally.

"If you want to take charge of the army, you can!"

"There are enough county soldiers here, but there is a huge shortage of county soldiers and township soldiers below, you can put your mind on it!"

"Of course, the grain, grass and ordnance in the treasury are seriously consumed, and if you want to be in charge of the county soldiers and township soldiers, you have to pay for the grain yourself!"

"I have a request after you take charge of the army, that is, you can't disturb the people, and you can't destroy the local county order, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"In addition, the county soldiers and township soldiers must obey orders at critical moments, this is my condition, if you agree, you can act as soon as possible!"

Several powerful family heads looked at each other, not wanting the eldest prince to be so easy to speak.

In this case, it is not good for them to continue to toss, that is, to give shame to face.

Now that the eldest prince is in charge of tens of thousands of soldiers, he is no longer the empty shelf he used to be, and they don't dare to lose face like before.

It's really going to be anxious, in this war-torn era, who knows if the eldest prince will take risks?

The Liu family is not a rule-abiding existence, it has been like this since Liu Bang, the Taizu of the Western Han Dynasty, and they don't want to take risks.

Being able to get control of the county soldiers and township soldiers is quite acceptable for them, and as for the money, food, and materials spent, they will naturally be able to get it back through other means in the future.

From this point of view, the eldest prince attaches great importance to the family as always, and they obviously thought too much about it before.

After getting the letter and having the appointment documents of the Taishou Mansion, the head of the powerful family will naturally not be ignorant, and hurriedly said that he will take out some money and grain as a little 'heart' for them to support the eldest prince to govern Jiangxia.

Looking at the backs of several powerful family heads in Jiangxia, Liu Qi was expressionless and unhappy in his heart, but he was just a few clowns who jumped off the beam.

The strength is not comparable to Liu Dang, a non-mainstream general, it seems that Jingzhou's martial arts style is not prosperous.

It's a pity that the time is too short and too late, otherwise Liu Qi really has the thoughts and ideas to open the prosperous era of martial arts......
