Chapter 22 Tiger and Ben Forbidden Army training soldiers
As for what to do after arriving in Luoyang, Yuan Shu has already thought about it.
With the protection of his father Yuan Feng, and the title of the legitimate son of the Fourth Third Duke, he had to think carefully if he wanted to bully Yuan Shu.
Besides, Yuan Shu's goal is not to go to Luoyang to attract hatred, but to develop in an obscene way is the ultimate goal.
Yuan Shu didn't seem to be involved in the struggle between General He Jin and the Shi Changshi. He just wanted to gain favor in front of the emperor and then make friends with famous people such as Lu Zhi and Wang Yun.
Carry forward your reputation, and then take advantage of Luoyang's large population and wealth to vigorously develop business, make friends with court officials, and obtain benefits at the same time, laying the foundation for the subsequent Yellow Turban Rebellion!
Yuan Shu, who has a system, naturally does not need to worry about how to develop business. Based on the summoning points in his hand, Yuan Shu has already decided which production drawings he will use to purchase.
After everyone had eaten and drank enough, they set off on the road to Luoyang. After about two hours, they finally arrived outside Luoyang City!
"Finally arrived in Luoyang! Where are Yu She and Yuan Huan? Take my letter to my father and inform him that the highway has reached Luoyang."
The two men who received the order quickly rushed to Sikong Mansion with the letter written by Yuan Shu.
But Yuan Shu and others took a step slowly and took a walk around Luoyang City first!
Luoyang City is worthy of being the capital of the ages. It is extremely prosperous. The shouts on the streets never stop, and people are coming and going in droves.
Just when Yuan Shu was about to buy something, Yu She ran over and reported that
"My lord! Mr. Yuan asked you to go over now and prepare to take you to meet the general..."
"Yeah! Okay, let's go now."
Since his father is taking him to see General He Jin, it would be better to move quickly and go early. This will also give him a good impression on General He Jin!
The group of people rushed towards Sikong Mansion as quickly as possible. Luoyang was so big that it took them a quarter of an hour to arrive, but Yuan Feng had already prepared the carriage, loaded up the gifts, and was waiting for Yuan Shu.
"My son, Dad is finally waiting for you. How are you these days in Runan? How is your mother?"
Although Yuan Feng lives in a high position as Sikong, he is still very concerned about his family's situation. As soon as he met Yuan Shu, he started chatting about home affairs!
While chatting about the situation at home, the father and son got on the carriage and rushed to the General's Mansion. As for the rest of the people, Yuan Feng arranged for them to rest in an empty room in Sikong Mansion.
"Highway! This should be your first time meeting General He Jin. Father has prepared gifts for you.
You can just listen to your father later, don’t put too much pressure on me... When it’s over, the general will arrange for you to be appointed as Tiger and Lieutenant General."
After hearing his father's words, Yuan Shu felt relieved and nodded, indicating that he already understood.
Yuan Shu was still very curious about General He Jin, and he would inevitably have to check the system again.
"Herod!"
The horses neighed and everyone arrived at the general's mansion.
Yuan Feng led Yuan Shu out of the carriage, and asked the servants to carry the gifts down and send them to the general's mansion. After carrying the gifts, Yuan Feng took Yuan Shu to the lobby, and the general He Jin was already in the lobby.
waiting!
"Yuan Feng, I have met the general!"
"Yuan Shu and Yuan Gongli, meet the general!"
The father and son bowed their hands in a gesture of respect.
"Hahaha! No need to give a big gift, is this my wise nephew? He is very handsome, not bad."
General He Jin was very happy to see Yuan Shu in front of him. Perhaps it had something to do with Yuan Shu's own charm!
"Quinzi has just arrived in Luoyang, and he is clamoring to come and see you first, the general! Hahaha, it's really a bit hasty, please forgive me, general..."
Words still depend on others. Yuan Feng's words made He Jin more fond of Yuan Shu. He grinned and looked at Yuan Shu with admiration.
"Not bad, not bad! My nephew is a talented person, and I am very happy. I remember that my nephew rushed to Luoyang to serve as the general of Huben Zhonglang, Henan Yin, right?
I have already requested the emperor's orders, and now the imperial edict and official uniforms are at my place."
After He Jin finished speaking, he turned around and took out the imperial edict... After a series of procedures, Yuan Shu put on the clothes representing Huben Zhonglang General, and under He Jin's instruction, he went to Huben Forbidden Army Camp with Yuan Feng.
Logically speaking, Huben Zhonglang will be regarded as a sinecure. The Forbidden Army is now mainly managed by the Yulin Army. Almost next year or the year after, there will be the Eighth School Lieutenant of Xiyuan, who will be responsible to the emperor and manage the soldiers and horses of the Imperial Army.
After Yuan Shu and his son arrived at the Huben Forbidden Army Camp, they discovered that the Huben Forbidden Army Camp only had a total of two thousand troops, and most of them were new soldiers. They seemed to be recruited for the newly appointed Huben Zhonglang General...
"These...also..."
Looking at the groups of lazy soldiers in the camp, Yuan Shu became angry, but he did not speak and asked his father Yuan Feng next to him.
"Dad, I should be able to organize these soldiers. I want to kick some of them off and recruit them again...
As long as the number does not exceed two thousand, it should be okay, right?"
After hearing this, Yuan Feng nodded and said
"Well, the general has already reported it to the emperor. You, General Hu Ben, were appointed by the emperor. As long as there are no more than two thousand soldiers and horses, you can do whatever you want..."
"Okay! Dad, why don't you go back to the house first. I want to sort out these soldiers today..."
Yuan Shu sent his father Yuan Feng back home with a smile on his face, and then arranged for his servants to send Yuchi Gong, Dian Wei, Yuan Ji, Ji Ling, Lu Fang, Yu She, Hao Siwen, Mu Hong, Zhang Xun, and others from Sikong Mansion.
Liu Xun, Lejiu, Han Hao, Qiao Rui, Chen Dao, Lu Fan, Gao Gan.
All these military generals were called over, and they would be asked to sort out these lazy soldiers. The fittest would survive, and five hundred soldiers would be selected first.
The servant nodded and sent Yuan Feng back home. Yuan Shu straightened his clothes and sat next to the Huben Forbidden Army Camp. He looked at the soldiers in the camp and waited for his generals.
"Ahem! You, who asked you to sit outside? Go away..."
A soldier saw Yuan Shu sitting here and couldn't let go of the others, so he came over to drive Yuan Shu away.
However, Yuan Shu just raised his head and looked at the soldier, without saying anything or moving.
"I'm talking to you? You didn't hear me? Get up!"
Seeing that Yuan Shu didn't answer him, he looked at him contemptuously. The soldier was so angry that he stepped forward and pulled Yuan Shu, wanting to drag Yuan Shu out directly.
Bingyouzi grabbed Yuan Shu's left arm, but found that he couldn't pull it. Instead, Yuan Shu raised his arm, causing Bingyouzi to stumble!
"You guys are looking for death, aren't you? Brothers! Here comes a troublemaker."
Seeing that he could not deal with Yuan Shu, the soldier quickly called to the soldiers in the rear to deal with Yuan Shu together.
When the soldiers behind heard Bingyouzi's shouting, they all came over and glared at Yuan Shu angrily.
