Because of martial arts and military merits, he is slightly inferior to Lei Yutao, although he is a few years older than the other party, Zhang Jianlin can only be a deputy, a six-rank battalion general.

Fortunately, Lei Yutao is usually very righteous, fair and fair, not greedy for merit, and treats Zhang Jianlin as a brother and respects him very much.

Zhang Jianlin, how can it not be lifted.

Since then, in the barracks, he has always looked forward to Lei Yutao, and willingly served as his deputy, and the two walked in lockstep.

Cao Zhiping came and encircled the first battalion, which is completely understandable.

Any commander-in-chief wants the main force to absolutely obey the command, how can he tolerate his subordinates to deviate from him and disobey his military orders?

If you want to fight like this now, there is only one result:

They were either fused by Cao Zhiping and compromised with him, or they found fault and were dismissed by him.

There is no second possibility.

And Wu Peifan is not a boss.

Let the first battalion stand on Wu Peifan's side and resist Cao Zhiping, this is the rhythm of death.

I don't know what General Shi thinks of his old man?

This is an army, and the military order is like a mountain!

Zhang Jianlin seems to think more thoroughly than Lei Yutao.

Cao Zhiping knew that the two people in front of him were engaged in a fierce ideological struggle, which was reasonable and expected, and he had patience.

"Two old brothers, General Shi has been strict in governing the army for decades and has strict requirements for his subordinates, which is not wrong in itself, but it can't make your small life so unbearable, the backyard is restless, how can you serve the country with peace of mind?"

Cao Zhiping smiled.

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and touched the gold ingots on the desk, the clouds were light and light, "These gold ingots are just a little private money in Cao's family, not much, one hundred taels of gold per person, which can solve your current embarrassment, in order to protect the family and defend the country, please accept it!" ”

Lei Yutao gritted his teeth and hugged his fists:

"The humble duty thanks the general for his compassion, but he is not punished for his merits, and he really does not dare to accept this gold ingot, but please rest assured that the humble duty is a soldier, and he should protect his family and defend the country, and obey orders as his duty."

He and Shi Wanzhong are like father and son, although they do not agree with the arrangement of the teacher's departure, but it is not easy to disobey.

Therefore, Lei Yutao thought of a compromise way, we didn't accept the gold ingots, and the military order was still willing to obey.

Oil and salt do not enter, and people are rejected thousands of miles away.

Cao Zhiping snorted in his heart, without the slightest expression of anger on his face, and his expression was natural.

He just grinned shallowly and sneered:

"General Lei Ying is still slow to refuse, he will make his own opinion, and Shicai has already sent his brother from Guard Tun to move for you."

"Moving?" When Lei Yutao heard this, he was full of excitement, and his face changed abruptly.

Cao Zhiping turned a blind eye, which seemed to be what he expected.

He continued:

"The new house is in the eastern part of the city, three into the house, a family to live in, although it is not generous, but compared with the previous small two courtyards, it is much stronger."

The three-entry mansion is twice as large as it is now, and of course it is much stronger.

This kind of courtyard is the ideal residence that Lei Yutao's parents, wife and children have talked about countless times, and they want to realize it in their dreams.

But with the annual dry salary, plus the current housing prices in the capital of Yizhou, how can it be done?

Cao Zhiping has something to say, a pun.

In addition to buying people's hearts with gifts, another meaning is that don't toast and don't eat and drink.

Could have sent someone to move, or could have sent someone to move?

How could Lei Yutao not understand?

For a wealthy family, killing people is like slaughtering chickens and dogs.

Moreover, this is in the barbaric Western Regions, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, there is no law, depending on whose fist is big, there are soldiers and horses in his hands, and his strength is strong.

Cao Zhiping was silent, but he had already spread out his hole cards, that is, to see the poor dagger.

Don't push me, I don't want to be so naked.

He is still smiling, sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai, quite a bit of Cao Qi's impostor.

At this time, Lei Yutao, like a leaked skin, was dying with his head bowed, and his head was blank.

Let's get on the ground first.

Cao Zhiping grinned and pulled out a cold arc, turned to Zhang Jianlin, and said:

"General Zhang Ciying, Ben General has invited the best famous doctor in Hexi Province from Dunhuang Mansion in Guazhou, and made a special trip to come for your wife's illness.

"If this famous doctor can't do it, Ben will go to Beijing Chang'an to invite him again, he is the Tai Doctor of Tai Hospital, and Ben Jiang can also invite you, my father is in the capital, and I still have this face."

This is not bragging, Cao Qichang has two doctors from the Tai Hospital by his side, who serve him and the main members of the family.

First of all, regardless of whether the imperial doctor is invited or not, with Cao Zhiping's good intentions, no matter what the purpose, Zhang Jianlin has been moved.

"Thank you for your humble position, the general, for working so hard for your humble wife!"

With tears in his eyes, he knelt on the ground with great excitement, clenched his fists and bowed his head.

The illness of his wife at home has been like a stone all these years, which has been pressing on his heart and he is out of breath.

I didn't expect that this famous sixth son of Cao Mansion would treat a subordinate so kindly.

Isn't it just being taken advantage of?

Even if the Son of Heaven is used and calculated by others.

In the whole world, who else is not being used?

Being able to be used by others shows that it is valuable.

People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves.

Not everyone can control their own destiny.

Zhang Jianlin thinks thoroughly, and people should be more realistic.

"Oh, General Zhang, what are you doing? Hurry up, take these gold ingots, alleviate the family's embarrassment, and manage the army and train with peace of mind, there is no other meaning, man, if you let the wife and children at home suffer from poverty, where will we put our face! ”

Cao Zhiping took a step forward, stretched out his hand to help Zhang Jianlin, and said affectionately.

Look at people's eloquence, that's called a must!

Hit the nail on the head, every sentence is intimate.

Even if it is to win over and lure, this selfishness is normal, and the person himself is a guard general.

It's all said and done, and if it is stiff, it will become tasteless.

The so-called soldier is a confidant who dies.

"The general is so sympathetic, and he is not polite."

Zhang Jianlin stood up, took two steps forward and put the gold ingots on the plate into his pocket one by one, and then turned his head to look at Lei Yutao.

His eyes are reminding him, brother, don't be stiff, and those who know the times are Junjie.

Perhaps the hardest thing in the world is to weigh the pros and cons and condemn it with conscience.

Those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die!

This is a general law in officialdom and military circles.

How can you be single-handed, dare to go to the mantis arm as a car?

Lei Yutao hesitated for a moment, but finally stepped forward and pocketed the one hundred taels of gold ingots.

In fact, Lu Tao still doesn't understand the teacher's original instructions.

Why do you want to stand in line with Wu Peifan and go against Cao Zhiping, the main general in the army?

Just because Cao Qichang framed General Shi back then?

Those are the result of the party struggle in the court, do you want to let the innocent be buried together?

Moreover, Wu Peifan has no backers, and his popularity is small, and his prestige and ability in the army cannot impress everyone.

It will certainly not be the climate in the future.

Seeing that the two battalion generals had received gold ingots, the smile on Cao Zhiping's face was like a wild chrysanthemum on the mountain, blooming more happily.

After a few pleasantries, the two of them immediately said goodbye and left.

Cao Zhiping did not forget to let the famous doctor who was invited to go to his home with Zhang Jianlin to treat his wife.

At this time, a person came out from behind the screen, forty years old, dressed as a master.

Looking at the distant back, he smiled and said to Cao Zhiping:

"The sixth prince is really a good method, he finds out the intelligence, hits the key points, and uses both soft and hard, this kind of bribery and submission is really difficult to refuse."

This person is the master of Cao Qichang's staff, named Zou Baichuan, who is in charge of smuggling transactions in the Western Regions, and is highly valued by the master.

Cao Zhiping smiled:

"This is also the opportunity given by Shi Wanzhong, he only has strict requirements on weekdays, but he forgets that when the water is clear, there is no fish, and the horse can only run when he is full."

"More than 3,000 iron cavalry of the main battalion of the Anxi Duhufu, the two battalion generals who are actually in charge of the army voted for Cao, Wu Peifan has completely become an empty shelf, if he is honest in the future, let him be idle at home, eat a share of Lu Lu to retire!"

Zou Baichuan laughed when he heard this, "That's right, what we do in Yizhou in the future, we don't have to have any scruples." ”

Cao Zhiping nodded yes.

In fact, they don't know anything.

When Shi Wanzhong was leaving, he left two thousand taels of silver for Wu Peifan, and asked him to envelop Lei Yutao and several other supervisors.

Who knows that Wu is stingy, short-sighted, and greedy for money.

He kept half of the two thousand taels of silver for his own use, and only took out one thousand taels, but he still distributed them from the beginning.

Think about it, the silver taels themselves are small, and they are like sprinkling pepper, and when they go to Lei Yutao and Zhang Jianlin, they will only be forty or fifty taels of silver per person.

In their minds, although this money can make a slight splash, it will never bubble up.

Take a look at Cao Zhiping, who is the son of a wealthy family, who is generous, knows how to capture thieves and kings, and only focuses on the director of the army to throw money.

In addition to one hundred taels of gold per person, it also provides a house for free, and invites famous doctors to treat the sick and other measures, which is called a 'steady, accurate, and ruthless'.

In contrast, in the first round, Wu Peifan was defeated.

Decisive killing, this is an important quality for generals.

"Master Zou, there will be a banquet for you in the evening, how about it?" Solving the problems in the army, Cao Zhiping was happy.

"The sixth prince is too polite, this time I have to stay for several days, we have a chance to drink, and Zou will have to pick up the goods in person, you have to send a team to go with me."

Zou Baichuan came over this time and made a special trip to provide a large number of ordnance materials for Ashina Helu to meet their consumption in this war.

With a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, he didn't dare to be careless in the slightest.

In addition to the secret guards of the imperial court and the forces of the Jiangzuo Alliance in Western Xinjiang, there is also a powerful horse bandit entrenched in the Eagle Claw Ridge of the Tianshan Mountains.

"This is easy to do, let the first battalion send out a department, more than 600 elite cavalry to escort you, I will also take a look by the way, after this is attached, Lei Yutao's performance in obeying the general's order."

Cao Zhiping agreed very heartily.

"It's a great trick, killing two birds with one stone." Zou Baichuan praised.

Cao Zhiping immediately called the herald and sent the herald Pegasus to convey his military orders.

Everything was arranged, Zou Baichuan left, and Cao Zhiping returned to the house to drink and eat.

Taking advantage of the wine, Cao Zhiping, who went to bed, immediately appeared on the concubine Cuihong, and then showed the majesty of his successful man.

After a few spring breezes, I slept comfortably.
