Chapter 32 Hou Fu Advice
Lu Suifeng then announced: Ouyang Mingyue is the quartermaster commander, Yun Wuya is the law enforcement commander, Ouyang Wuji is the supervision commander, and Yun Wuying is the chief instructor of the whole army. Yi Feihong, Zhou Yi, Feng Mingyan, Wen Biyan and the maid Qin Lan were all incorporated into the ranks of the soldiers and received the devil's training in the future without discrimination.
In addition, from now on, the monthly military salary will be increased from the original hardware to 20 gold coins. The monthly salary of a junior officer is 100 gold coins, that of a mid-ranking officer is 300 gold coins, and that of a senior officer is 800 gold coins. The top 10 winners in the year-end selection will receive a prize of 3,000 gold coins. Lu Suifeng raised his grace and power at the same time, and the whole audience applauded. It was only at this moment that the whole army returned to their hearts, and they sincerely believed and recognized the new commander.
"After the dismissal, everyone went to the quartermaster office to receive a year's military pay, and took a day off to go back to take care of the housework. You will all spend the next year in the barracks. At that time, the castle gates of the barracks will also be closed for a year. Lu Suifeng finished replenishing, and then announced the disbandment of the whole army. Yi Feihong quietly approached him and whispered, "Boss, is this military salary set too high? You also know the treasury ...... "You don't have to worry about this!" Lu Suifeng patted him on the shoulder and said with relief: "All the military salaries will be paid by us separately, and we will not use a single gold coin from the treasury." Ahem, I've taken out one item here, which is enough to pay for this army for fifty years. Yi Feihong's worries disappeared when she heard this, and she was relieved, relieved, and comfortable with the right person.
Lu Suifeng took office as a new official, and in a snap of his fingers, he paid equal attention to grace and power, and won the hearts of the army. In the future, the special training will also be arranged in an orderly manner, and each will perform its own duties and responsibilities.
The special training of this army requires the support of a large number of resources, and it is also necessary to start building a batch of excellent equipment and blades. At the same time, he ordered Yun Wuying to teach the "Wind Thunder Knife" and "Pear Flower Spear", two extremely powerful martial arts to each soldier. These two martial arts belong to the high-level level of the earth, and they are also assisted by internal strength.
The gate of the barracks of the 10th guard of the Praetorian Guards was slammed shut. Even Yi Feiyue, the eldest prince of the Hou Mansion and the president of the Praetorian Guard, led people to come several times, but he was not allowed to enter. The fact that the president of the dignified Praetorian Guard could not even enter the gate of his subordinate camp was simply a naked irony and humiliation. President Yi Feiyue's disgust with the new commander suddenly rose to the level of hatred.
For the several visits of this eldest prince of the Hou Mansion who is above the top, Lu Suifeng can be disdainful. However, the sudden visit of the strategist Fang Lao could not be ignored and refused behind closed doors.
"Lu Xiaoyou, I'm sorry, I broke your rules. It's really Master Hou who has something important to ask you to come over to the house to discuss!" said the strategist Fang Elder apologetically.
If there is no major urgency, Yi Hou Ye will not easily send people to disturb him, and he must have encountered a very tricky matter.
Lu Suifeng followed the strategist Fang Lao into the Hou Mansion without hesitation, and walked to the door of the Hou Ye's study, where there was a burst of controversy among the Baisheng people. "Shhhh
"Your Royal Highness the Third Princess! Hundreds of thousands of soldiers from my Xijun Prefecture have been stationed in the Wasteland for two years, and after dozens of battles, seventy or eighty thousand soldiers have been bathed in the bloody wasteland, and their souls have been cut off in a foreign land, which has finally made it difficult for the army of the Flying Rain Kingdom to cross the thunder pool by half a step. And those high-ranking magnates of the kingdom, not only did not reward and appease, but also reprimanded the commander for leading the troops and doing things ineffectively. It really made Ben Shuai disheartened and speechless. "Cui Shuai misunderstood! The lord of the country did not mean to blame Cui Shuai. This princess went to Xijun Prefecture this time, especially with the holy will of the lord of the country, to reward the soldiers of the whole army, and a large number of materials and resources will arrive soon. Before leaving, the lord of the country said that he ordered the princess to fully assist Cui Shuai to resolve the endless dispute as soon as possible. "Alas, in the past two years, there have been dozens of negotiations and consultations between us and the Flying Rain Kingdom, and the final result is that we will talk once and start fighting once!" Cui Shuai paused, and stopped talking.
"Cui Shuai has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it! With this princess here, the sky can't fall!" The voice of the third princess sounded beautiful and tactful, but it contained a bit of the majesty that a superior person should have.
"A few days ago, the talks broke down again. In the past few days, the other side has been mobilizing a large number of troops, and a major battle is inevitable. "Hmph! If he wants to fight, then fight! Only by hurting him and maiming him can we aggravate the law code on the negotiating table. Lu Suifeng, who was outside the door, listened to this, and couldn't help but glance at the third princess, and appreciated it a little more. There is more domineering and decisiveness in weakness, and you can still keep your heart in anger. Subverted the previous perception of these heavenly ladies.
"Alas!" Yi Hou Ye in the room suddenly sighed, "Why can't this Amethyst Xuanmai Mine move back two hundred miles, but it was born in the idle area between the two countries. It became an ownerless thing in the Borderlands. "The Amethyst Xuanhua Mine is the culprit of this war. Lu Suifeng once read a treatise on Xuanjing in the Zangjing Pavilion of the Medicine Valley. Ordinary baitestone only contains a single attribute energy, while amethyst smelt contains all the attributes, and the energy and purity contained in it are several times that of ordinary sylvestite. In a word, amethyst Xuanshi is an indispensable and important resource in the cultivation of high-end martial artists.
The strength or weakness of a kingdom mostly depends on the number of high-end warriors, and the number of amethyst Xuanshi is enough to determine the future rise and fall of a kingdom.
Lu Suifeng had a clear understanding of the whole picture, first of all, a purple gold vein mine appeared in the spatial zone on the border between the two countries, although it was explored and excavated by the Tianxiang Kingdom, it did not mean that he had all the mining rights. The Raindance Kingdom came to ask for a piece of the pie, which is also reasonable and understandable. Because of its appetite, the two sides collapsed as soon as they talked, and in the end the dispute could only be resolved by force. One of the most important points is that the Amethyst Xuanmai Mine is still under the control of the Tianxiang Kingdom.
Lu Suifeng tapped twice on the door, pushed the door and walked in.
"Lu Suifeng, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, has met Her Royal Highness the Third Princess, and has seen Cui Shuai!" Lu Suifeng gave a military salute, nodded to Yi Houye, and smiled slightly.
"Have you seen this princess?" "I've never seen her!" I stood outside the door for a long time, and heard her voice as if I had seen her. Lu Suifeng looked at the third princess calmly, and there was no restraint and humility in his expression.
"Oh, how can you hear and recognize people?" The voice is clear and tactful, and there is a little more domineering power in the softness, and you can still stick to your heart in anger, and you are not easily swayed by emotions. At first sight, it is really beautiful and heroic, and quiet without losing the charm of agility. It can be said that in the show of wisdom, women do not recognize their eyebrows. Lu Suifeng was not deliberately flattering, but just speaking casually.
"People who can enter Hou Ye's study at will are indeed not idle people. Seeing that this princess can be so calm and free, neither humble nor arrogant. The words out of the garden are like pearls, and the smell is intoxicating. The third princess squinted slightly and looked at Lu Suifeng carefully, and then smiled; "Your name is Lu Suifeng!" Although we met for the first time, we had a sense of déjà vu and felt very cordial...... Perhaps, it's just a momentary illusion, right?" "It's real, it's real!" ̈ Lu Suifeng frowned slightly; "Don't hide it from the third princess, I feel the same way." However, a thought is like a cloud, and you don't have to be obsessed with it. "Hehe! I didn't expect the third princess and Commander Lu to have a sense of familiarity at first sight, which really surprised Ben Hou. Yi Hou Ye haha, and then whispered to the third princess: "Xin Benhou once, get acquainted with each other, and you will definitely benefit a lot in the future." Don't miss out on the opportunity. "The three princesses are bright-eyed, and the person who can be so respected by the Hou Ye is either a dragon or a phoenix. It's even more rare that I have an inexplicable good impression of this person, and I won't give up.
"Your Royal Highness the Third Princess, Master Hou! The battle ahead is imminent, and the army cannot be left without a commander, so I will retire first. Cui Shuai got up and saluted and hurried away.
"Lu Xiaoyou, Ben Hou is eager to invite you to come over to the mansion precisely for this tricky matter, I don't know what good way to deal with it?" asked Yi Hou Ye with a worried expression.
"Commander Lu doesn't have to worry! Princess Ben has full authority to deal with this matter under the holy order of the Lord of the Kingdom. Now that the war is coming, I don't know how many soldiers have spilled their blood in the wasteland. If it continues so endlessly, it could lead to a full-scale war between the two countries, and a solution must be found as soon as possible. The third princess succinctly explained the seriousness of the matter.
After Lu Suifeng pondered for a while, he casually asked a few questions: first, the specific location of the Amethyst Xuanmai Mine? Second, the distance between the two armies and the Amethyst Xuanmai Mine?
"The Amethyst Xuanmai Mine is about 200 miles away from China's border, and it is still under control. The location of the battlefield is five hundred miles from the border. The condition proposed by the Raindance Kingdom is that the two sides will jointly mine, each exert its own ability, and will not interfere with each other. Yi Hou Ye explained concisely.
"I have an immature idea for reference!" Lu Suifeng pointed to the map and said: "Look, a hundred miles away from the Amethyst Xuanmai Mine, there is a canyon called the "Eagle's Beak Stream", which is about fifty meters wide, with cliffs on both sides, and it is difficult for birds to cross. For example, build a 100-zhang Xiongguan here, and then dig a 30-meter-wide trench in front of the pass, leading the turbulent river not far away. In wartime, it is only necessary to raise the suspension bridge, and even if there are millions of soldiers, it is difficult to easily increase the slightest. The heaviest thing is that the passage here is narrow, and at most 20,000 or 30,000 people are allowed to knock on the city at the same time. And our army only needs to hold the Xiongguan with 50,000 people. That's enough!" the third princess put her hands on her cheeks, listened attentively, and her face was thoughtful.
"Fantastic idea!" Yi Hou Ye turned the table and said excitedly: "With a division of 50,000 to defend the Baizhang Xiong Pass, we only have to face the attack of 20,000 or 30,000 enemy troops each time, what is the result? The only way to know is to retreat, and not to know. However, our side relied on the danger of Xiongguan and refused the enemy in front of the pass without any damage. Not only did he permanently own this precious vein, but he also expanded the kingdom's territory by hundreds of miles. Such a good strategy can be said to kill one stone. The more the third princess thought about it, the more she felt that this strategy was exquisite, and only the wise and wise could have such a strategy.
"Commander Lu!No, Brother Feng!" The third princess had bright eyes and called softly, "Oh! don't mind if I call it that, right?" Lu Suifeng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and suddenly he was stunned. Its performance has become a potential stock with unlimited possibilities. didn't know that Yi Hou Ye had bought him in secret.
"Don't mind! In fact, in my heart, I regard the princess as my sister!" Lu Suifeng's tone was quite sincere, not false and wrongful. He admired the third princess a lot, and he didn't have a sense of rejection. His decisions are always single-minded. Having a princess sister may save you a lot of unnecessary trouble in the future.
"Ahh From now on, you are my sister's brother, and whoever dares to be unfavorable to you, my sister will never take it lightly. "Congratulations to the third princess! Ben Hou is a little red!" "That's! Thank you Lord Hou for reminding me at the right time, otherwise I will miss out on Brother Feng." The third princess giggled with a smile in her eyes, and with a slick of her hand, there was an extra ring in her hand; "Sister is out of the house, there is no decent gift, this storage ring is used as a meeting gift for our sister and brother." With a flick of his fingers, the ring drew an arc in the air and flew into Lu Suifeng's hand. "I'll erase the mark!" added the third princess triumphantly.
There is a gold card inside the storage ring, and the card contains millions of gold coins. In addition, there is a purple gold medal, with three lifelike flying phoenixes engraved on the front and three words on the back;
With this purple gold medal, you can enter the inner royal city of the royal capital to find your sister at will in the future. The third princess explained softly.
"Thank you, Sister Yu!" Lu Suifeng changed his words at the right time, sounding a little more intimate.
