Chapter 51: Perfection

"Chen Wang?"

Hong Chengchou frowned slightly, and he seemed to have a slight impression of the name that came out of Sun Shoufa's mouth.

"I remember that on the previous battle report, there seemed to be his name on the encounter in the town of Hutou."

Although Hong Chengchou has no ability to forget, his memory is much better than that of ordinary people, after all, he is also a second-class jinshi.

"The military gate remembers well, it is this person recommended by General Cao Bing."

Sun Shoufa bowed his head in reply, and at the same time took out two documents from his arms.

"When I saw the name, because I was not familiar with it, I sent someone to investigate, and this person's resume is summarized here."

Sun Shoufa took a step forward, put the two documents on the table in front of Hong Chengchou, and stepped back to the side to stand and wait.

"The first document is Chen Wang's resume, and the second document is a letter sent by Cao Zongbing from Pingliang Mansion."

Hong Chengchou bowed his head slightly to indicate that he knew, picked up the two documents handed by Sun Shoufa, and opened the first one.

"Liaodong Guangning people ......"

Hong Chengchou's eyes moved slightly, and the document submitted by Sun Shoufa recorded that Chen Wang's place of origin was first, and then he was promoted to meritorious service.

Cao Wenzhao's family was born, and Liaodong won the first and third grades, and one of them was killed as a white-armored soldier in Jianzhou after being surveyed by the Ministry of War.

Liaodong won two levels, first raised the small flag, and then raised the general flag, and won the first level in the battle of the four cities, and was promoted to a hundred households.

Entered the customs and entered the suppression, won the first level of thirty-two levels, and dozens of large and small battles, one did not fall, and one was not missing.

According to his merits, he should have been a hundred households a long time ago, but at that time, he suppressed Cao Wenzhao's merits, so these achievements were still not in place in the end.

"In January, he was promoted to the general manager?"

Hong Chengchou noticed one of the details.

This Chen Wang was originally a family member, but after the battle of Hutou Town, he was directly promoted to the general manager of Bai, and acted as the general manager, and then after recruiting troops, he was promoted to the general manager during the Battle of Pizhou.

It is indeed reasonable to try the military position of 100 households, and the family is from a family, and it is also within a reasonable range as a close confidant of a general, but this promotion is indeed a bit fast.

Hong Chengchou was a little suspicious, not long ago, he was still a big soldier, and he became a general commander of more than 400 soldiers in four bureaus, and management was a great problem.

"This Chen Wang is the Chen Wang who has made meritorious contributions behind the Battle Hall of Hutou Town?"

Hong Chengchou turned his head and asked Sun Shoufa.

"That's the man."

Sun Shoufa nodded in reply.

On the document of the battle of Hutou Town, Cao Wenzhao wrote Chen Wang's name, and the queen of the palace had meritorious service, killing and wounding hundreds of enemy Kou Jing cavalry troops, and beheading five levels.

Hong Chengchou pondered for a while, as if he had thought of something, and then pulled out another document from the pile of papers on the table.

Just after a few glances, Hong Chengchou's eyes changed.

In the battle of Pizhou, this person was indeed on top of the document of the victory, lined up to defeat the enemy's infantry team, broke the remnants of the enemy army outside the town, broke the enemy's elite cavalry, and beheaded a total of 270 levels in the division.

If it is a meritorious work, it is enough to be promoted to a thousand households.

The military position of Qianhu does match Qianzong.

Hong Chengchou's eyes moved slightly, and he didn't ask again, but first opened another document sent by Cao Wenzhao.

Cao Wenzhao has been working under him for many years, and he thinks he knows a lot about him.

Cao Wenzhao is sophisticated and calm, and will never put an inappropriate person in an inappropriate place.

Hong Chengchou thought that most of it was Cao Bianjiao who went to receive it, after all, Cao Bianjiao was originally a general, and he returned to his hometown due to illness before, and his battalion soldiers were also moved to others.

Although Cao Bianjiao participated in the general this time, he followed Cao Wenzhao as a general, and did not lead a battalion alone.

In the middle of the paperwork, Hong Chengchou's original frowning brows slowly stretched.

Putting down the paperwork again, Hong Chengchou's expression had returned to normal, and he said in a deep voice.

"Send a message to Cao Wenzhao, no matter who he recommends, I will hire them, but I must deal with those Liao soldiers in Chunhua."

"The enemy is now, and there can be no more chaos."

Sun Shoufa stood on the side, looking at the document that had been opened, and was a little curious.

He guessed the contents of the document and wanted to know what Cao Wenzhao had written in the letter, which made Hong Chengchou change his opinion.

However, Sun Shoufa was able to do guerrilla all the way, not only by virtue of martial arts and military exploits, but also by virtue of doing things, so he did not ask any questions, but bowed down to answer, and then withdrew from the military tent.

When Sun Shoufa withdrew from the military tent, Hong Chengchou refocused his attention on Cao Wenzhao's letter.

The information about Chen Wang written by Cao Wenzhao in his letter is far more detailed than what Sun Shoufa spied on.

The first level of the Tartar obtained by Chen Wang was not the third level, but the seventh level, but the fourth level of it was sold for silver money, which is normal in Liaodong.

Not only that, Cao Wenzhao also explained Chen Wang's family background clearly, and at the same time explained the palace, military training, marching and other matters one by one.

After reading the letter passed by Cao Wenzhao, Hong Chengchou already had a general impression of Chen Wang in his mind.

"The New Book of Discipline and Effectiveness...... Qi Jiguang ......"

Hong Chengchou picked up the tea cup on the table, held the saucer in one hand, and took a sip of tea in the other.

The hot weather in Shaanxi in July makes people haggard, and herbal tea can relieve the heat.

"Chen Wang......"

Hong Chengchou put one hand on the table, and his index finger lightly tapped on the table.

He became a little interested in the people recommended by Cao Wenzhao.

Hong Chengchou naturally heard Qi Jiguang's name, and the two military books written by Qi Jiguang, "The Actual Record of Military Training" and "The New Book of Discipline and Effectiveness" are not forbidden books, and he has read them all.

In addition, he has also read military books such as "Formation Discipline" and "The Art of War", otherwise he would not have sat in the position of the governor of the three sides and could command and dispatch so many large armies.

There were many strong armies in history, and many of the generals who led them wrote military books, recording their training methods and armaments.

However, there are very few people who can train a strong army according to the charter.

Some are because of blind rigidity, some are because of incomplete implementation, and some are because of poor understanding.

But this Chen Wang seems to really have a talent for military training, Cao Wenzhao reported in the letter at the end.

"The orders are strict, the rewards and punishments are lettered, and the soldiers dare not die."

"On the thirteenth, it rained heavily, there was no military order to avoid the rain, and no one moved the officers and soldiers in the division for training.

"The last general watched his leading troops drill and march, and fought in formation, all of which were like the Zhejiang soldiers in the past, and they were full of their shape."

Jiguang patrolled the plug and discussed the construction of the enemy platform. In short:

“…… However, the border soldiers are strong, and the law will be unbearable with military law, so please recruit Zhejiang people as an army and advocate bravery. ”

The superintendent is on his advice and allowed. Zhejiang soldiers 3,000 to, Chen suburbs.

It rains heavily, from dawn to sun, and it stands still.

The border army was horrified, and they knew the military order.
