Chapter 487: Three Generals Choose One

"That's not true!" Chu Lianyu said: "With adults here, no one will make trouble, and no one will dare to make trouble, but adults will not be there forever, there will always be a day when they leave, and when the time comes, will there be people who will support their own troops, but it is not necessarily." ”

Only Chu Lianyu dared to say this in front of Lin Haotian, and it would not arouse Lin Haotian's disgust, but would only make him more vigilant.

Lin Haotian tapped his forehead, pondered for a long time, nodded, looked at this piece again, thought for a while, and said: "The corps commanders and commanders of each army will not rotate for the time being, and the corps commanders can make appropriate transfers, and this matter will be handled by you with full authority!"

Chu Lianyu pondered for a moment, smiled slightly, and arched his hand and said, "Xiaguan, obey the order!"

The corps commander is a position that connects the upper and lower levels and has great real power, which is particularly important in the corps, Lin Haotian only mobilizes the corps commanders of various armies, which is the second best choice, although it is not satisfactory, but Chu Lianyu can also see that this is the limit that adults can accept.

After dealing with Chu Lianyu's two pieces, Lin Haotian felt extremely tired, and seeing that Peng Qian still had the intention of continuing to play, he waved his hand and said, "Peng Qian, you can go and discuss other matters with the ministers, discuss the results, just let me take a look." ”

"Yes, my lord!" Peng Qian bowed, and then retired with Chu Lianyu.

After the end of the Jin-Chi War, under the proposal of Chu Lianyu and Peng Qian, the prime ministers of the Jin State, the Jin State soon carried out large-scale military and political reforms, involving a wide range of aspects and touching all sides.

Among them, the reform of military affairs can be called a drastic move, and young and middle-aged people from woodland and red land were recruited into the central army of Jinguo in large numbers. and then assigned to various legions, breaking the convention that the main legions of the Jin country were monopolized by the Jin people, which was also a precedent for other countries.

Of course, the reason why Jin Guo did this did not mean how advanced Jin Guo's thinking was at that time, but just a helpless move forced by the situation.

However, the chain effect caused by it is immeasurable, the most significant point is that the status of the Mu and the Chi people in the Jin country has been greatly improved, and the Jin people have lost their psychological superiority over the Mu people and the red people, and the social status has gradually become equal, which also promotes the real integration of the population in the Jin country to the greatest extent.

The reason why the country of Jin can become stronger and stronger, and the national strength is getting stronger and stronger. Naturally, it has a direct relationship with the coach Lin Haotian. However, his ability to deal with military and political affairs is not even as good as that of Yan Chu, the fallen monarch of the Wood Kingdom. It's just that he was the most enlightened and advanced of his mind at the time. And he has the wisdom to know people. It can accurately judge which ones can be demoted and which ones are mediocre, and then distinguish which ones are beneficial. Which admonitions are harmful.

The next day, Lin Haotian rested for a night, and finally decided to enter the palace to meet the adults.

Yesterday, Zhao Yu and the senior officials of the imperial court waited for Lin Haotian for more than half an hour, but they only waited for his reply that he was 'physically tired and unfit to face the saint', which made Zhao Yu and many of the senior officials extremely dissatisfied.

Today, in the last dynasty, many officials couldn't wait to complain in front of Zhao Yu about Lin Haotian's wrongs, and impeached him for not taking the king in his eyes more and more, and he had the heart of not being an official.

Zhao Yu is not a fool, of course he can feel Lin Haotian's sluggish and arrogant attitude towards him, but what can he do? Condemn Lin Haotian? I am afraid that it will lead to killing. Now he doesn't ask Lin Haotian to respect and be polite to him, he just asks him not to come to trouble him, and don't let himself not come to the stage in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

Above the court, Zhao Yu was silent, and the righteous indignation of Lin Haotian's dissatisfaction below came and went, and at this moment, there were guards outside the hall chanting and chanting: "General Lin has arrived-"

Just in an instant, all the voices of dissatisfaction in the court stopped, and the entire hall was so quiet that the officials hung their heads one by one, sitting upright, and they didn't dare to breathe, even Zhao Yu subconsciously sat up straight, his spirit was tight, and a layer of goosebumps appeared up and down his body.

With the sound of loud footsteps, Lin Haotian walked in from the outside, first looked around, and then his eyes fell on Zhao Yu in front of him, strode forward, bowed his hand, and said: "Minister, Lin Haotian, I have seen the king!"

"Aiqing is exempt!" Zhao Yu owed a debt and hurriedly waved his hand to Lin Haotian.

Lin Haotian straightened up, his tiger eyes were crooked, and he asked with a smile: "What were Your Majesty and Lord Lie discussing just now? When the minister didn't come, it was still lively, why did no one talk as soon as the minister went to the palace?"

The ministers' bodies were shocked, their heads hung lower, and Zhao Yuqiang smiled and said, "No, it's nothing! ”

Lin Haotian sneered in his heart, no longer talking nonsense, and introduced the war situation of the Jin Kingdom against the Red Kingdom to Zhao Yu in a few words, and then said loudly: "Song Hao has become the king of the five counties of Chibei, and is actively exterminating the rebel party of the Red Kingdom led by Shi Huai, and the king should issue an order to praise Song Hao's loyalty to the adults!"

"Yes, yes, yes! What Aiqing said is reasonable, this king ...... This is the order!" Zhao Yu nodded again and again, looking extremely approving.

Seeing this, Lin Haotian didn't say anything else, and said, "If there is nothing else, let the subordinate retire first." ”

Zhao Yu raised his hand and said, "Aiqing, please!"

At the same time as Lin Haotian turned around, he said to the big subordinates on the left and right: "If the ranking adults have nothing important, they should all retire, don't talk nonsense behind people's backs, like a long-tongued shrew." As he spoke, he sneered and strode out of the hall.

The faces of the ministers were red and white, and some of them really stood up and withdrew from the hall with small steps, while others knelt and sat still, some with sad faces, and some with angry trembling.

Zhao Yu sighed, waved the sleeves of his robe, and said weakly: "Retreat!"

On the other side, not long after Lin Haotian had just returned to the General's Mansion, another piece of news came shortly after.

It turned out that the Jin State had completely exempted the merchants of the Yan State in the second county of Mubei on the condition that it had obtained 80,000 military horses and 80,000 sets of heavy cavalry equipment provided by the Yan State.

The value of the 80,000 war horses and 80,000 sets of equipment provided by Yan Guo can be described as astronomical, and the opening of the tax exemption of the two counties of Kemubei can also be profitable for Yan Guo for a long time, and it is difficult to say who took advantage of whom in this transaction.

In the past, Jin Guo hoarded the heavy cavalry equipment of Yan State, and also formed a heavy cavalry corps, but the number was too small, and it could not exert its power when forced on the battlefield, and it was never used in Wancheng, but now it has the configuration of 80,000 cavalry, which is enough for Jin Guo to form a real cavalry corps.

The military of the Jin State attaches great importance to this matter, and the commanders of all legions are also eyeing this soon-to-be-established cavalry corps, no matter which legion these 100,000 cavalry are put in, their combat strength can be qualitatively improved.

However, Lin Haotian did not plan to distribute the 100,000 heavy cavalry he had formed to the existing legions, but decided to set up a new legion.

Jin Guo currently has six legions, and for the cavalry legion, he didn't bother to choose a name, and directly named it the seventh legion after the rank.

As for the candidate for the corps commander, he didn't think about it for the time being, in his mind, Zhang Shun, Wu Tao, and Guan He were all competent.

Zhang Shun and Wu Tao are both golden, their loyalty is undoubted, and both of them are both civil and military, but compared with Guan He, their ability is still slightly insufficient, but Guan He is a red man, and Lin Haotian can't give him full trust.

The configuration of 80,000 heavy cavalry, Yan Guo could not provide all of them to Jin Guo at once, and it still needed to be transferred from all over Yan Country in batches, and then transported to Jin State.

This just gave Lin Haotian plenty of time to think about it.

For the sake of the corps commander, he specially asked Chu Lianyu to discuss it several times.

The latter reminded him that since the founding of the Jin State, there has never been a cavalry corps, and this time it is a fierce heavy cavalry corps on the battlefield, which is the top priority, and the ability of the corps commander may not be the strongest, but the loyalty to the Jin State and the monarch must definitely be the highest.

Chu Lianyu said this, which is tantamount to vetoing Guan He's candidate.

Thinking about it carefully, Lin Haotian also felt that Chu Lianyu was reasonable, if Guan He was excluded, then it would be easy to decide on the candidate for the commander of the legion, Zhang Shun and Wu Tao were equally capable, and no matter who they chosen, the effect would be similar.

With a candidate in mind, Lin Haotian also mentioned Zhang Shun and Wu Tao in front of him in the General's Mansion, asking the two of them to learn Yan Chinese as soon as possible, and at the same time looking for an opportunity to ask Liu Dongduo, the general who escorted the war horses in the Yan State, about the strategy and tactics of the heavy cavalry.

Lin Haotian said this, although he did not directly state that Zhang Shun and Wu Tao should be the commanders of the cavalry corps, but the meaning was already tacit.

Hearing this, Guan He, who was also in the general's mansion, lowered his head, gritted his teeth, his body was tense, and he didn't say a word. (To be continued......)
