Cao Youwen picked up the holy decree again and shouted loudly:

"Where's Ma Zhong?"

"Ma Zhong is here!"

Among the officers who were watching coldly just now, a tall, black and strong officer in his thirties walked into the hall and knelt on one knee to salute.

Cao Youwen nodded, picked up the holy decree and read it.

"Ma Zhong was promoted to commander, led 3,000 troops, and guarded the Qifang Pass!"

The appointments of these officers in the holy decree were all jointly formulated by Zhao Hong and the Sichuan system envoy Cui before the graduation of the lecture hall, which also saved Cao Youwen and Yu Yu a lot of trouble in the appointment of generals.

"Thanksgiving!"

Ma Zhong stood up and stepped aside, blushing halfway.

From deputy commander to commander, he can finally lead an army and be in charge alone.

"Where is Lu Wende?"

Cao Youwen shouted loudly again.

"Lu Wende is here!"

Lu Wende stood in the middle of the hall, like a giant tower, and his young face aroused the surprised eyes of the soldiers in the hall.

"Lu Wende, appointed as the commander of the West Road of Lizhou, led 3,000 troops, and was stationed in Xihe Prefecture! After the training is completed, go to Xihe Prefecture to take office! ”

Lu Wende's appointment has actually been confirmed a long time ago, but it is only necessary for the generals of the two roads in Lizhou to know each other, so that it is too much.

"Thanksgiving!"

Lu Wende solemnly accepted the order and stood aside.

Cheng Xin frowned, Lu Wende became the commander of Lizhou West Road at a young age, and he was one step away from him, which made him jealous.

"Where is Li Zhongde, the former deputy capital of Lizhou East Road?"

Cheng Xin was envious, jealous and hateful, and Yu Jue shouted loudly.

"Li Zhongde, the deputy commander of Lizhou East Road, is here!"

Li Zhongde was unhappy, but Cheng Xin remained silent and could only stand up.

"Li Zhongde was transferred to Kuizhou Road, appointed as the deputy commander of the capital, and guarded Chongqing Mansion!"

"Minister...... Obey! ”

Li Zhongde was stunned for a while, was he directly transferred?

"Where is Wang Kui, the former commander of Lizhou West Road?"

Yu Jue's voice sounded again.

"Wang Kui is here!"

"Wang Kui was transferred to Lizhou East Road, appointed as the commander, and guarded Yangzhou!"

Wang Kui was helpless, so he had to hold his fists and lead the order.

Cheng Xin was secretly frightened. Several of his henchmen were transferred out one by one.

Needless to say, it's not Cui who is messing with him, or Zheng Zheng betraying him.

These scholars and doctors, all of them have bad stomachs, and they don't have any good things.

"Where is Lu Yuanting?"

"Where is Wang Jian?"

Cao Youwen and Yu Jue kept shouting loudly, and one by one the officers of the martial arts hall came out, kneeling down to receive orders, either as commanders or as generals, as for the deputy generals and preparing generals, they were all brushed aside, and there were more than 100 people.

All the generals gathered together and stood outside the barracks, everyone had different thoughts, Cheng Xin and other generals looked at each other, and their hearts were uneven.

Such a young hairy boy, they can also command thousands of troops?

I heard that these guys are all today's confidants of the martial arts hall, and the protégé of the Son of Heaven, the emperor is not afraid of making trouble if he is so nepotistic?

Isn't that a joke?

Cheng Xin, Wang Kui and others looked at the disdain and anger in their eyes, Cao You was silent, and Ma Zhong and Ma Yi and other side generals all frowned.

Now that things are quiet, I hope that after a period of training in the army, these young generals can quickly become talented and not let the army disobey.

"Where is Wang Shixin?"

One by one, the generals were settled, and Cao Youwen suddenly shouted, which surprised everyone in the camp.

"Tell the general, Wang Shixin is just a prepared general, not here."

Ma Zhong's heart moved, and he hurriedly clenched his fists to report.

Wang Shixin has a good relationship with him, but he was dismissed by Zheng Zheng, and his official rank was too low, so he was not qualified to come in to meet him.

"Send someone to call him quickly!"

Cao Youwen immediately commanded.

Cui He's words, he took to heart.

"Meet the General!"

Wang Shixin came in, clasped his fists and saluted, and knelt on one knee.

"Your Majesty's holy decree, Wang Shixin is loyal and brave, and he was promoted to the commander of the West Road of Lizhou, leading 3,000 troops, and guarding the Dasan Pass!"

Cao Youwen looked at Wang Shixin and said softly:

"Wang Shixin, when he arrived in Chuzhou, he temporarily assisted the general in training cavalry. As for Dasanguan, he will take office after the cavalry is trained. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty! The subordinate thanked the general! ”

Wang Shixin knelt down with a "poof", kowtowed heavily, and stood up with a red face.

Cheng Xin was secretly frightened. Wang Shixin, this is the position of Wang Kui, his best friend and confidant.

Wang Shixin was a fierce general in the border area, and was dismissed by the imperial court because he offended An Bing, the former Sichuan envoy. Although An Bing died, he had a great influence in Sichuan, and even the current Sichuan envoy Cui He did not dare to reuse Wang Shixin, so as not to slander the Sichuan scholars.

Unexpectedly, the emperor fluttered a holy decree and let Wang Shixin turn over and become the master.

Could it be that the emperor not only dealt with the generals of the border army, but also against the scholars and doctors in Sichuan?

These generals of the martial arts hall are fierce enough, and the emperor is even more so, everything they do is rampant, completely ignoring the consequences.

Also, most of the middle and senior generals in these armies are officers who speak martial arts, and when they go to the battlefield, they don't understand fart, and they don't know what kind of trouble is going to happen?

After the appointment of the generals, Cao Youwen put away the holy decree.

"Your Majesty's holy decree, send me and General Yu to Shukou to conduct strategic defense, one is to train the new army, and the other is to defend Shukou. The formation and training of the new army was led by two generals, Cao Youwan and Lu Wende, and the new military officers of the Wutang were coordinated. ”

Cao Youwen looked at the generals in the hall and continued:

"Your Majesty personally decreed that within a year, there must be 100,000 elite soldiers on the two roads of Lizhou, and firearms and ammunition must also be delivered by themselves, and they cannot always be transported from the southeast. Did you all get it? ”

All the generals were stunned. Isn't it a joke to train 100,000 elite soldiers a year?

Without a few years of battlefield fighting, how can you be considered a strong soldier in a hundred battles?

Aren't the 5,000 soldiers in the battalion strong soldiers?

The surprise of the generals was in their eyes, and Cao Youwen and Yu Jue glanced at each other and smiled slightly.

The martial arts training skills are ahead of the times, and when more than half a year passes, the generals will naturally be surprised.

When General Yu entered the camp, the sergeant on guard at the door asked hastily, and asked General Yu and others to drive their horses in. In case of an enemy army, I am afraid that the Lizhou battalion has collapsed. ”

Cao Youwen's tone was soft, and Wang Shixin, Cheng Xin and others were embarrassed.

The big battles were all in Shukou, and they rarely affected the Lizhou camp. After a long period of peace, the officers and men in the battalion naturally lost their sense of war.

"The Lizhou camp is the fine willow camp of the Son of Heaven, and the army hears the general's order, but does not hear the edict of the Son of Heaven, and the army is not allowed to drive. Wind forest volcanoes, military orders are even more like mountains. ”

Cao Youwen was solemn and had the style of a general.

"The brothers have remembered that it is strictly forbidden to eat empty salaries and drink soldiers' blood in the army. From now on, if you dare to be a traitor, a sergeant of fish and meat, you will be engaged in military law. Do you all understand? ”

Yu Yu followed Cao Youwen and told the generals sharply.

"Obey the general's teachings!"

The generals clasped their fists together and said yes, with different thoughts.

These young generals are full of posture and momentum, and I don't know if they are good?

The generals left the barracks and walked away, Ma Zhong, Wang Shixin and others were excited, while Cheng Xin, Li Zhongde, Wang Kui and others were full of worries and were silent.

"General, these guys are aggressive, they won't come really, right?"

Gao Yifeng, the commander of the Tianshui Army, asked weakly.

"Afraid of what? The new official took office with three fires, and it was good that it had passed. Besides, the law does not blame the public, everyone is like this, what can he do with his brothers? ”

He Tao, the deputy commander of the Great Dispersion Pass, snorted coldly.

Wang Shixin, a dead eye, became his top boss, and I am afraid that it will not be easy in the future.

It seems that we have to find another way to squeeze this Wang Shixin away.

"It's good for you to stay in the old place. I was miserable, left Xingyuan Mansion, and went to that place in Kuizhou. My altars and jars are all in Xingyuan Mansion. ”

Li Zhongde hung his head in frustration, and his eyes kept rolling.

"If you don't leave, what can they do?"

Wang Kui whispered, and Li Zhongde's eyes immediately lit up.

"What the general said is that our brothers have one heart, what can they do with us?"

The defense of Shukou is full of holes, everyone is the king and self-contained, Cao Youwen and Yu Jue want to clean up the two roads of Lizhou, it depends on whether they have the ability.

The generals retreated, and only the Cao Youwen brothers, Yu Jue, Lu Wende and others were left in the barracks.

"Lao Yu, these arrogant soldiers and fierce generals have their own forces, and I'm afraid it's not easy for them to obey orders in a proper manner."

Cao Youwen frowned, feeling a headache for Li Zhongde and Wang Kui, these domineering generals.

"When the time comes, I'm afraid I'll have to kill the killer. You and my brother, are still just "power generations", if you can't even do this little thing, how can you train and lead the army? ”

Yu Jue snorted coldly, with a faint hint of hideousness in his eyes.

"When the time comes, we will only see the move. In any case, I can't live up to His Majesty's explanation! ”

Cao Youwen looked at the generals, and his tone became calm.

"Later, I will go to Chuzhou and Xingyuan Mansion with General Yu to take up our posts respectively, rectify the border army, and repair the border fortress. Lü Wende and Cao Youwan recruited and trained new troops here, and assisted craftsmen from Jinling in building iron factories and weapons manufacturing branches. You can't bring all the firearms from Jinling. ”

This time, all the firearms were transported from Jinling, so that everyone hurried up, and it took almost two months to reach the border of Shukou.

"General rest assured, the matter of weapon manufacturing will be done immediately!"

Lu Wende clenched his fists and asked for an order.

"Lu Wende, you first lead the craftsman to solve the matter of weapon manufacturing. When the officials sent by the imperial court arrive, you will return to the camp and train with Cao Youwan! ”

After Cao Youwen told Lu Wende, he took out a stack of things and put them on the table.

"Lao Yu, take a look."

"Anti-Corruption ...... Division, Li Zhongde, deputy commander of Lizhou East Road, and He Tao, commander of Dasanguan......"

Yu Jue looked at the evidence and was secretly surprised.

What a bonus!

"Cao Youwan, recruiting and training the new army, everything is like talking about the rules of the martial arts, and you must not be clever and perfunctory. Otherwise, the Son of Heaven will not spare you, and I will not be polite! ”

Yu Jue put away his things and instructed Cao Youwan.

"The last general obeys!"

Cao Youwan hurriedly received the order, and then said with a smile:

"Big brother, don't you and Lao Yu go to visit the Lizhou pacification envoy and the governor of the state?"

"We are here to take up our posts and rectify military affairs, not to drink and socialize. Lizhou West Road is full of problems, training and recruiting, one by one, how can I have the heart to stay here! ”

Cao Youwen said coldly.

"That is, the officials have said that the military and the government are separated, so why bother to look at the faces of these big turbans? Besides, the official family will be here next spring, and we have no time to waste! ”

Yu Jue was also unceremonious, and didn't want to waste time at all.

The money and grain for the training of the soldiers were personally approved by the emperor, and they were all issued by the Sichuan Preparation and Procurement Division, and they just had to sit down and do their jobs.

The news reached Uncle Gao Tai, the governor of Lizhou, and the governor of Lizhou was annoyed.

"These impudent puppets!"
