Chapter 121 Monopoly of power
Lin Haotian said this, which means that he did not give these generals a choice at all.
No one is not afraid of death, if death is meaningful, maybe there are still people who dare to try, but now, even if they die, they have to bear the infamy of disrespect and disloyalty to the king, where are people willing to sacrifice in vain?
And this is precisely where the majesty of the king of a country lies!
The generals were snorting and panting, their hearts were in a ball, and people looked at each other, even if they didn't speak, they only made eye contact, and they all reached a consensus with each other.
The people were silent for a long time, and then, they all knelt down on one knee and said one after another: "The last general is willing to obey the king's orders, submit to the lord, and serve the dogs and horses!"
"Okay!" Lin Haotian was overjoyed when he heard this, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that these generals would rather die than surrender, if they all were killed, then the 70,000 troops still under his control would be a big trouble, and they could get out of control at any time, and they would be angry, causing major hidden dangers to their side.
Lin Haotian stood up excitedly, and said word by word: "Since the generals are willing to submit to me, they will be their own brothers in the future, in my place, I never look at the high and low of my background, only look at the strength and weakness of my personal ability, as long as the generals have the strength, I guarantee that you will soar in the army, otherwise, you will only be eliminated." I hope you and the others will do your best not to be the one who gets knocked out. ”
After hearing this, the generals were moved, and hurriedly responded in unison: "Yes!
Since ancient times, all the countries of the Abyss Continent have been ruled by powerful people, but since Lin Haotian was in charge of the army, he has never paid attention to these. It is only based on the merits and political achievements of the soldiers to promote them. It was the only thing to be thankful for the obedient generals, and at the same time it was a secret relief for them.
The next few days. It has become Lin Haotian's busiest day.
How to arrange these obedient generals has become the biggest problem that plagues Lin Haotian at present.
On this day, Lin Haotian brought Chu Lianyu, Peng Qian, and Bi Wen to the Chinese army's tent and discussed with them about the employment of personnel.
After everyone sat down, Lin Haotian sat in the center, tapped his fingers on the table, and said, "I plan to merge the current fifteen corps into three corps, and then select three commanders from the army to take charge of each other, what do you think?"
Hear the words. Peng Qian first glanced at Lin Haotian in surprise, but did not speak.
Military affairs have always been managed by Chu Lianyu and Bi Wen, and now that Lin Haotian wants to integrate the legion, naturally only Chu Lianyu and Bi Wen have the most right to speak.
Chu Lianyu frowned and said, "My lord, according to my Dajin regulations, each legion must use at least 100,000 people, but we only have 150,000 now, if we form three legions." This ......"
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Haotian had already taken the lead in interrupting: "Each corps is temporarily formed by five corps, and the new army will be recruited in the future, and then distributed among the various corps. There was a pause. He added: "This will not only maximize the expansion of troops, but also help to concentrate military power." I don't want the Chen Fa and Matsudaira incident to happen again!"
Through this turmoil, Lin Haotian deeply realized the harm of the dispersion of military power. If the fifteen corps under his command are still scattered in the hands of individuals, once someone has the heart of rebellion. The results will be endless. And Lin Haotian now proposes to integrate the corps into a corps, and the main purpose is precisely to disperse the power in the hands of the generals.
Chu Lianyu nodded secretly while pondering Tang Yin's words, feeling that Lin Haotian's approach was indeed more conducive to the stability of the army and the needs of expanding the army, he arched his hand and said: "My lord sees it clearly, and the general thinks it is feasible." ”
Seeing that Chu Lianyu agreed with his idea, Lin Haotian was very happy, he turned his head sideways, and asked again: "Then tell me, who is the most suitable commander of the three legions?"
Hearing this, the faces of the three of them were the same, and the commander of the legion was not an ordinary person, but he was in charge of the five corps in the army! Therefore, his candidate must not only be loyal to Lin Haotian, but also have super ability, otherwise, the consequences will be absolutely unimaginable.
Judging from the current generals under Lin Haotian, Ding Feng, Bi Wu, Lu Kai, Zhang Bufan and others are all suitable candidates, but some of the generals led by Dou Bo are also under their consideration, after all, if they only promote the generals under their command, it will inevitably make the rest of the generals feel dissatisfied, which will cause dissatisfaction among the generals in the army.
Chu Lianyu, Peng Qian, and Bi Wen all had their own concerns, so no one took the lead in expressing their position.
Lin Haotian looked at the three of them and asked with a smile, "Why, don't you have any suitable candidates in your hearts?"
At this time, Chu Lianyu cleared his throat and took the lead in saying: "My lord, the candidates for the commander of the corps this time cannot all be selected from among our army, otherwise it is easy to arouse the dissatisfaction of a large part of the generals. ”
Lin Haotian smiled slightly and said, "I also have this intention, Peng Qian, Bi Wen, what do you think?"
Peng Qian was the oldest among the people, and his position in the whole army had long been deep-rooted, he smiled at Tang Yin and said: "Lian Yu is right, since the Lord has been canonized by the Great King as the commander of Twin Peaks City, then all the military horses here should be treated equally, and there should be no favoritism. ”
"En!" Lin Haotian nodded as he listened, and after Peng Qian finished speaking, he looked at Bi Wen again.
Bi Wen rolled his eyes and said, "My views on things in the army are far inferior to Brother Chu and Brother Peng, since the two brothers have said so, then I have no objection." ”
When Lin Haotian heard this, he got up, he picked up the teacup, took a shallow sip, and then said lightly: "For the commander of the three armies, I have a suitable candidate in my mind!"
Hearing this, Chu Lianyu, Peng Qian, and Bi Wen were all shocked, and they all pricked up their ears and listened to Lin Haotian's next words.
Lin Haotian smiled and continued to drink tea until he drank all the tea in his hand, and then said unhurriedly: "The First Legion, with Ding Feng as the main general, Lu Kai as the deputy general; the Second Legion, with Bi Wu as the main general, Zhang Bufan as the deputy general; and the Third Legion, with Dou Bo as the main general, and Tao Hua as the deputy general!"
Tao Hua was the first group of veterans to follow Lin Haotian, who was the commander of the corps under him before, calm, both civil and military, and even more loyal to Lin Haotian.
After speaking, Lin Haotian looked at the three of them and asked with a smile, "What do you think?"
After listening to Lin Haotian's series of arrangements, Chu Lianyu and the others came back to their senses after a long while, and several people glanced at each other a few times, and they all nodded tacitly.
In terms of selection, Lin Haotian does have his own unique opinions.
Ding Feng and Lu Kai are both Lin Haotian's confidants, the former is brave, the latter is calm, the two of them can make up for each other's personality gaps, and they can learn from each other, Peng Qian, Chu Lianyu and others have no objection to this.
In addition, Bi Wu and Zhang Bufan have been following Lin Haotian for a long time, and they have long been familiar with each other, and they are also handy and seamless in cooperation, so it is common sense for them to be in charge of the Second Legion.
As for the commander of the Third Army, it was completely Lin Haotian's actions to appease the generals, regardless of whether Dou Bo was sincerely obedient to Lin Haotian or not, with Tao Hua's surveillance, he would not make any big trouble.
Chu Lianyu, Peng Qian, and Bi Wen glanced at each other a few times, and then, the three of them left their seats together, bowed down, and said, "My lord is wise, we have no objection!"
Lin Haotian stroked his palm and said: "Okay! Since everyone has no objections, then this matter is decided, Peng Qian, you write an order after you go back, and read it in front of the generals tomorrow." ”
Peng Qian's face was straight, and he hurriedly replied, "Yes!
The commanders of the three legions were determined in the words of Lin Haotian, Chu Lianyu and others. In addition, in order to be able to control the military power to the greatest extent, Lin Haotian also took all the talismans in the hands of the commanders of the three armies as his own, but not all of them, but half of them.
He asked people to remake the talisman, the talisman is separated from the center, the commander of each army has half of it, Lin Haotian has the other half here, and the commander of each army has only the right to manage the army, and has no right to transfer, to mobilize the army, you must apply to Lin Haotian, after Lin Haotian's approval, you can get the other half of the talisman, merge the two into one, so as to mobilize the army.
