Chapter 56: The Camp

On the first day of November, all the northwest generals of Shu gathered in Xiao Yu's official residence in Mianzhu. There are also six Daomen real people and Zishuiyang and Huangshuiquan, a total of eight celestial masters, if you add Lan Yu, Xiao Yu, Tang Shengyue and others, the celestial masters in the Northwest Army will exceed the number of hands.

Because of the falling snowflakes, Min Xing delayed on the road, and was the last governor level general to arrive in Mianzhu, and when he was led by a guard to the warm pavilion with a layout similar to the cabinet, he found that the warm pavilion was already full of people.

The atmosphere in the warm pavilion today is a little delicate, not as serious as the previous discussions, except for the six Daomen real people sitting in a row on a row of chairs against the east wall, silent, everyone else sat very casually, Zi Shuiyang and Huang Shuiquan sat close to the door and closed their eyes, Lan Yu, who had the highest official rank, and Wei Ban, who had been hot recently, were sitting in the two positions in the middle and chatting, Qu Cang was sitting alone in the south position, and the south window position not far from him was a warm kang with a clear northern style, there was a small table on the kang, Lin Han sat on the right, Xiao Yu sat cross-legged on the left side of the small table, and a bright woman sat beside Xiao Yu, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes。

Min Xing's gaze swept over the warm pavilion, and then found that there was an empty seat next to Qu Cang, the prince's henchman, smiled faintly, and stepped forward.

After Min Xing sat down, Xiao Yu looked around, the originally slightly noisy warm pavilion returned to calm, Xiao Yu gently patted the back of Tang Shengyue's hand, Tang Shengyue got up silently and walked out, everyone in the warm pavilion did not squint, especially Lin Han, from beginning to end, it seemed that he didn't see Tang Shengyue at all.

Xiao Yu coughed lightly, and then slowly said: "Now that we have captured half of Shuzhou, it is estimated that before the end of the year, we will be able to capture the entire territory of Shuzhou, so there are two benefits, one is that Shuzhou is known as the country of abundance, rich in grain, which can alleviate the urgent needs of the army, and second, we can go south to the two lakes in the south of the Yangtze River and other places, as long as we capture the two lakes, the granary of the world is in hand, and there is no need to worry about food from now on." ”

When Xiao Yu decided to attack Shuzhou, there was no opposition from the top to the northwest, and the biggest reason was that there was little grain in the northwest, which was really to the point of critical survival. Now that half of Shuzhou has fallen into the hands of the Northwest Army, as the high-level of the Northwest Army, everyone present is naturally happy in their hearts and has spoken up to praise it.

Xiao Yu stretched out his hand and pressed it to stop everyone's "sycophancy", and then said: "Our territory is getting bigger and bigger, but the official position is getting more and more chaotic, a few days ago, an old general came to this king, and said to this king, why can't I understand our official position, my lord? This king asked him where he couldn't understand, and he said that this is the commander or the commander? The general army is big or the capital governor? What is the official position of the commander and the chief military officer? What is the matter with the superintendent, why are the civil officials still meddling in military affairs? Afterwards, the king thought about it for a long time, and felt that our border army and the local army were indeed a little chaotic, so the king wanted to set up a camp according to the region, named it after the pass or region, set up a palm seal officer, and added the title of governor of the left capital, with full authority to command all the troops in the territory to which the camp belongs. What do you think?"

Except for Wei Ban, who had long been aware of this, everyone else was a little at a loss and could only remain silent.

Xiao Yu smiled: "It's okay to be blunt, Lan Yu, you say it first." ”

Lan Yu stood up, and after a slight groan, he said: "Back to the prince, this method is very good, but there is something unclear, I don't know if this method is permanent or temporarily added?"

Xiao Yu smiled and said: "Naturally, it will not be permanent, it is just a wartime regulation, and when the war is over, the camp will be disbanded, and the personnel will be in their place." ”

Lan Yu nodded and said, "In that case, I have no objection." ”

After Lan Yu, the supervisor, made a statement, Xiao Yu turned his gaze to Minxing.

Min Xing hurriedly got up and said in a deep voice: "The last general has no objections. ”

Xiao Yu nodded with satisfaction, and said slowly: "Do extraordinary things at extraordinary times, this king plans to set up three major camps for the time being, namely the Sword Pavilion Camp, the Shaanzhong Camp and the next Two Lakes Camp. ”

There was silence in the warm pavilion.

The seal officer of the camp, whether it is the commander of the army or the superintendent, as long as he sits in this position, it means that he can stand out from the layers of constraints, and he can do his own thing, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a prince. It is not surprising that Lan Yu and Min Xing were appointed as the seal officials of the camp in Shaanzhong and the Sword Pavilion respectively, after all, almost all of them are leaders in their own series, and they can serve the public wherever they are placed, but Wei Ban still lacks shortcomings. Although Wei Ban has the great merit of stealing through Yinping, and he is only the acting commander of the camp, for a young man who is 30 years old, his qualifications are still too shallow, so how can these veterans who have survived most of their lives and only wander in the second and third grades be embarrassed?

Xiao Yu smiled faintly: "I know that many of you are unhappy, and you can't get used to seeing Wei Wen being in a high position at a young age, but this king made it clear today, if you have the ability, this king no matter how old you are, whether you have qualifications or not, you can give you a satisfactory official body, if you don't have the ability, then find a place to retire as soon as possible, this king can also give you a rich and noble without worry, but who wants a corpse vegetarian meal, don't blame this king for being ruthless." ”

Xiao Yu is used to being arbitrary, as soon as this remark came out, it was regarded as a clear position to let Wei Ban take the position, where there were still people who dared to disobey Xiao Yu in person, they all nodded yes.

In this way, the palm seal officer of the three major camps was determined, and Xiao Yu also achieved his goal, and after agreeing on the matter of attacking Jincheng in the near future, he ended the discussion.

Everyone walked out of the warm pavilion one after another, Min Xing fell last, with a worried face, it can be seen that Xiao Yu is gradually diluting the original border army military system, there are fewer and fewer governors and commanders, more are commanders and commanders, and this time the camp was set up, Xiao Yu did not mention Xu Lin who stayed in the central capital, and Xu Lin, as the governor of the capital, can he lead the seal officer of the camp? Look at the meaning of the prince, the palm seal officer of the camp only needs to obey the order of the prince, so where is Xu Lin?

Lin Han walked in front of Min Xing, and when he was in the warm pavilion, he didn't say a word, and he walked silently when he came out of the warm pavilion at this time. In Min Xing's view, in fact, this uncle failed to compete for a camp seal officer, frustrated and frustrated, and then thought of the bright woman who followed the prince, the meaning is interesting.

Suddenly, Lin Han stopped and turned his head, looked at Min Xing with a smile, and asked, "Lord Min, can you take a step to speak?"

Only Xiao Yu and eight celestial masters were left in the warm pavilion.

Xiao Yu said softly: "The five heavenly masters of the Tang family, there are all of you. ”

The eight people led by Zi Shuiyang all got up, and Zi Shuiyang said solemnly: "I will definitely live up to the expectations of the prince!"

Xiao Yu nodded, and then waved his hand to signal that the eight people could retreat.

After leaving Xiao Yu alone, Tang Shengyue returned to the Warm Pavilion and sat opposite Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu glanced up at her and asked softly, "What else is going on?"

Tang Shengyue's face showed a hint of pleading, "Let me go to Jincheng too, count me as begging you." ”

Xiao Yu lowered his head again and said calmly: "If you let go of a few remnants of the Tang family, it will be troublesome in the future, and this matter is not negotiable." ”

Tang Shengyue bit her lip, dispersed the white lotus on the top of her head, and said sadly: "How can you let go of the Tang family? You want my body? I will give it to you! If you want my life, I will give it to you!"

Xiao Yu smiled faintly, "Whether it's your body or your life, if I want it, I can take it myself at any time, and I don't need you to give it." ”

In an instant, a white lotus bloomed twelve times on the top of Tang Shengyue's head.

Xiao Yu said calmly: "I owe Lin Yinping, I don't owe you, you are not Lin Yinping, don't be angry with me." ”

Tang Shengyue's face turned red, and she didn't know whether she was embarrassed or angry.

Xiao Yu put on his boots, walked to Tang Shengyue's side, and said softly: "The two of us have the same bonding talisman, and I am not afraid that you will betray me, if you are willing to be my secret guard, then I can consider letting the Tang family go." ”

Tang Shengyue grabbed the last straw like a drowning person, grabbed Xiao Yu's hand, and asked, "What secret guard?"

Xiao Yu leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Naturally, I will return to the White Lotus Sect to be your holy daughter." ”
