Chapter 80: Making Something Out of Nothing
Ma Baiyu said solemnly: "Director Sun, the military room should prepare an official document as soon as possible, report to the Greentown Governor's Mansion and the Green Dragon Guard Command Division respectively, and report it truthfully: Just say that Hutou Mountain was besieged, and the Yuanyang Wei camp was attacked by tens of thousands of bandits, and it is necessary to write in detail the battle history of the fallen generals." Finally, the recruitment will be requested. ”
"I'll do it right away. Sun Tu beat the drum in his heart, this is not an exaggeration of banditry, but creating banditry out of nothing. He didn't know how to write this official document for reporting and recruiting, but he was very ambitious and full of self-confidence, just an official document, and I could learn what I wouldn't do.
"Do you know how to write this document?"
"I beg the chief to show me. ”
"Focus on the rampant banditry and downplay the evil consequences of Qi refining cultivators. The lost soldiers should be replenished in full, and the full pension should be added by 30% and written into the official document. ”
“......”
"You also need to issue a document from the barracks, ordering all the districts in the city and the inspection departments outside the city to report the roster of strong men of appropriate age who can serve in the military within three days. Within 10 days, the recruits will be sent to the Yuanyang Wei camp in Hutou Mountain, and each square and inspection department will be responsible for advancing the settling-in expenses, and it is necessary to do a good job in comforting the families of military households to ensure the emotional stability of the people in the jurisdiction. ”
Sun Tudao: "Is there an illegal order to recruit soldiers before the official document is approved?"
"It doesn't matter, the sooner you recruit and train, the better. ”
"Should we discuss such a major matter as recruitment?"
Ma Baiyu's face sank, and he said unhappily: "Major matters need to be discussed, and I have the final say with Director Zhou for such a small matter as recruitment." As the head of the barracks, you can do it. ”
Sun Tuxin said: The barracks issued documents to recruit soldiers, if the Greentown Governor's Mansion investigates it, I can only kill myself in fear of guilt. As long as I can master an army, I can increase my weight in the eyes of the chief of the Greentown Governor's Mansion.
Sun Tutan asked: "The big master, the strength of the city defense battalion has also suffered heavy losses. ”
Ma Baiyu said: "The city defense battalion will be handed over to Director Zhou." ”
Sun Tu said: "The big boss, why don't you take the military power of the city defense battalion into your own hands?"
Ma Baiyu looked at Sun Tu angrily and did not speak.
Sun Tu was very embarrassed, and said: "Is there a lack ......of suitable generals?"
Ma Baiyu sneered and said, "You can do it?"
Sun Tu was taken aback: I was originally Ma Baiyu's cronies, why didn't he trust me today? Could it be that Director Zhou said something bad about me?
Sun Tu looked at Ma Baiyu's cold eyes and said tentatively: "If there is no suitable general, can I recommend one?"
Ma Baiyu said in his heart: If the recommended person has the talent of a general, he can consider making him the general of Yuanyangwei. "Director Sun, which one do you recommend?"
"Li Liang, the former commander of the city defense battalion. ”
"This person can't do it. "He is a general who is reused by Hua Zhongxian, and after being deprived of military power, he even said that he was sick.
“......”
Li Liang, now 45 years old, is an upright person, has made outstanding military achievements, and has been promoted step by step, from a soldier to a captain, an officer of 100 households, and an officer of 1,000 households. After Hua Zhongxian was transferred to Yuanyang City, Li Liang, who had been an official of thousands of households for 14 years, was appointed as the commander of the city defense battalion.
Sun Tu said secretly: I know that Li Liang is not in your eyes.
Ma Baiyu looked at Sun Tu playfully and said, "Tomorrow, the new deputy director of the military room will report to you." ”
"Huh?"
"Director Zhou has recommended Jiang Tao to take over as the deputy director of the military room and the commander of the city defense battalion. ”
Sun Tu secretly scolded: Malego, I am the head of the barracks, but you handed over the city defense battalion to the deputy head of the barracks.
He pretended to be wise, but made a wedding dress for others.
Ma Baiyu couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart when he saw Sun Tu's uncertain face.
To deal with his subordinates, he must be strict and win over.
Ma Baiyu said: "This time, Yuanyangwei has lost thousands of sergeants, and you have an unshirkable responsibility." ”
Sun Tu opened his mouth in surprise and looked at Ma Baiyu in horror.
Ma Baiyu saw it in his eyes, and said: "I transferred you from the position of the inspection envoy of the inspection department to the head of the barracks, and I was not convinced by my colleagues, this time you were defeated again, and you must learn a lesson." ”
Marlego, is it your Ma Baiyu defeat, or my Sun Tu's defeat?
Ma Baiyu patted Sun Tu on the shoulder, and continued: "Before you came, Director Zhou sued you here for your black state, saying that you must be responsible for the soldiers who died, and the crime should be punished." ”
Sun Tu was taken aback and was skeptical.
Ma Baiyu added another fire and said, "Director Zhou threatened to let you pay for the dead soldiers, so I handed over the military power of the city defense battalion to him. ”
Malego, no matter whether Zhou Dongcang said such a thing or not, I have to find an opportunity to avenge the seizure of my military power.
Seeing this, Ma Baiyu raised his right hand and said, "If I tell half a lie, I won't die." ”
Sun Tu became emotional, he threw himself in front of Ma Baiyu's chair, and choked up: "In this life, I will only be the main person in this life, and I will die." ”
Ma Baiyu sighed: "After thousands of soldiers died, now I am the only general by my side, do a good job, don't let me down." ”
Sun Tu said: "The king treats me as a countryman, and I should repay him as a countryman!"
Ma Baiyu smiled: "You and I are the same age, and we will be our own brothers in the future." I know that you want to lead the troops, the city defense battalion has been taken away by the head of Zhou, you are still the head of the military room for the time being, and after I take back the military power of the city defense battalion, you will also serve as the commander of the city defense battalion as the head of the military house. ”
Sun Tu felt a little comforted in his heart, and said in his heart: The generals of Yuanyangwei are almost dead, why didn't Master Ma let me go to Yuanyangwei to lead the troops?
Ma Baiyu saw a hint of comfort flashing in Sun Tu's eyes, and then a trace of doubt flashed, and hurriedly said: "Haha, Master Sun, are you thinking, why don't I let you go to Yuanyangwei?"
Sun Tu was frightened and hurriedly said, "No...... Didn't think so. ”
Ma Baiyu explained: "Your new position as the head of the military room, you can't be relieved of this position so quickly, and you will be transferred to the Yuanyang Wei Command Division. Almost all of the directors in the presiding mansion are old people appointed by Hua Zhongxian and Zhou Dongcang, and I must let my people occupy the most important position of the head of the military room. ”
Sun Tu felt that what Ma Baiyu said was very reasonable.
Ma Baiyu said again: "Yuanyangwei is a garrison army, and it is often necessary to go on expeditions, if you go out with the army, there will be a lack of strategists and generals around me." Besides, the sword has no eyes, and I can't let you take risks. ”
Sun Tu was extremely moved, hugged Ma Baiyu's calf, and cried: "I will never doubt the kindness of the great master to me. ”
Ma Baiyu pulled Sun Tu up and said, "I know your loyalty to me." In the past three years, you have been offering medicine every month for my inappropriate illness, how can I not take it to heart?"
"Great master!" Sun Tu was really moved. After all, for the sake of Ma Baiyu, under the supervision of Linghu Wuji, he had no choice but to kill so many boys, and his conscience was already extremely uneasy, who could he talk to about the grievances in his heart?
Ma Baiyu put his right hand on Sun Tu's shoulder and swore an oath: "Brother Sun, sooner or later you will be the commander of the city defense battalion, or even the commander of the Yuanyang Guard......; If I am the chief of the Imperial City, you will be the commander of the Divine Dragon Guard. If I am ......, "If I am the emperor of the Great Xuanguo, you will be the general of the Seven Domains."
Sun Tu looked at Ma Baiyu in surprise, he felt that what Ma Baiyu said was more and more like the former chief Hua Zhongxian.
Ma Baiyu retracted his gaze and seemed to return to the present, and said: "For the official document reported this time, you need to find the clerical room, household room, official room, grain room, and silver room to study and write it together. ”
"......" Sun Tu's head was covered with sweat.
"Tomorrow afternoon, after writing and polishing the official documents, submit them to me for signature. ”
After Sun Tu retreated, he was uneasy in his heart, this official document could be handed over to the staff of the former head of the military room to write, such a major event made out of nothing, should it be reported to Director Zhou?
Did Director Zhou really sue me for my black case?
Negotiating with the clerks, households, officials, grain, and silver, the Zhou chief will definitely know, and in this way, I should prophetically inform him.
Coordination between colleagues is very important. In order to gain cooperation, secrets must also be shared.
