Secretary Zeng heard this and was secretly surprised.
"It is indeed possible. Something happened to Commander Yan of the Jiangnan War Department this time. He was removed from power by the Central Committee. Even a few of his cronies who were single-handedly brought out were implicated. Indeed, two people were left free.
"Major/General position."
The Governor of Jiang Province said, "Meng Pingjiang is very qualified. In addition, his father is also very prestigious in the military. If he manages it well, he should be able to win the position of major/general. It should be no problem. Even
He said that if the new commander wants to secure his position, he has to rely on the power of the Meng family, a local leader."
As the saying goes, a strong dragon will not overwhelm a local snake.
The Meng family has been deeply involved in the Jiangnan War Department for many years, and has a network of people behind it, and has long formed a huge force.
When a new commander takes office and military power changes, it is necessary to win over people's hearts in order to maintain stability.
Otherwise, the people below will not obey you as the commander, and they will follow your orders in a duplicitous manner.
So if you, the commander, fail to achieve anything, you will step down sooner or later.
Mr. Meng is very prestigious in the Jiangnan War Department. He has always been the second person under Commander Yan.
Now that Commander Yan has left, Mr. Meng will naturally become the number one person there.
Under normal circumstances, the new commander who takes power will definitely win over Mr. Meng.
"The position of young general is indeed within his grasp. No wonder he dares to be an enemy of a martial arts master."
The governor of Jiang Province exclaimed.
After tomorrow, who of the two major generals of the Meng family, not to mention Jiang Province, but the entire Jiangnan, can stop them?
Even though Li Wenchan was a master of martial arts, he was no match for a mantis in front of a huge military force.
"Then let's congratulate Uncle Meng in advance for being promoted to a higher rank, which is a step forward!"
"Uncle Meng, no, it's time to call me General Meng."
"A general before the age of fifty, and it is not yet a war period. If there is any war in the future, General Meng can go further. He has a bright future."
Everyone else toasted.
Meng Pingjiang's face was also full of spring at this time, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"When the results come out tomorrow, we will pick a good day and treat everyone to a good banquet."
He is full of confidence here.
Li Wenchan on the other side received a call from Qin Yao soon after sending Wang Yuehan home. At nine o'clock tomorrow morning, he would go to the Jiangnan War Department to accept his appointment.
"By the way, the higher-ups seem to have some ideas. I hope Commander Li can set up a special force!"
"What special forces?"
"It is a force formed by martial arts experts, specially led by Commander Li." Qin Yao explained, "As for the number of people, Commander Li will decide himself. As for the candidates, the superiors can select some from the seven war departments.
The most outstanding elites, or Commander Li can look for them."
After hearing Qin Yao's words, Li Wenchan couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
With his own strength, he doesn't need any subordinates.
However, he is not alone. He has family and friends behind him. If one day he is gone, they will all need strong people to protect him.
In addition, once the long night comes in the future and the eight sealed lands are broken through, the more powerful people there are, the better it will be.
"Okay, I agree."
Li Wenchan agreed.
For him, the advantages of this matter far outweigh the disadvantages.
'It's a pity that until now, I still can't find any other way to cultivate immortality. Otherwise, what I have cultivated will not only be an army of martial arts masters, but an immortal sect.'
Li Wenchan sighed in his heart.
Only he can practice his Ten Thousand Stars Flying Immortal Technique.
The so-called only way.
This immortal method is unparalleled and unique in the world. He has mastered this method and established a bridge with the stars in the sky. This connection is unique.
Unless he's dead.
Otherwise, even if others obtain this method, they will not be able to communicate with the stars in the sky.
However, although you cannot train your subordinates using immortal methods, there are still some shortcuts.
Such as ointment.
He can refine some body-tempering ointments to enhance the soldiers' physiques, making the soldiers' bodies stronger and comparable to those who have practiced martial arts for twenty or thirty years.
Early the next morning.
Qin Yao personally drove Li Wenchan to the headquarters of the Jiangnan War Department.
The headquarters of the Jiangnan War Department is located in a deep mountain and old forest in Jiangling City. This place is heavily guarded, with one post every three steps and one sentry every five steps.
This kind of important military location is usually well hidden and is considered a state secret. Most people don't even know its location.
At this moment.
Located in the command room of the headquarters.
Generals wearing military uniforms, with straight clothes and carrying a star on their shoulders, appeared here.
These generals are usually scattered in the Jiangnan provinces, each leading a group of soldiers and stationed in various regions.
It is a rare event for seven or eight generals to gather together like now.
One of the veterans caught the most attention.
This veteran has a tall and straight figure, no beard, and a fair face with no age spots. Only the fish scales at the corners of his eyes and slightly raised bags under his eyes show his old age.
A thin face with sharp edges and corners like ancient jade, full of texture, regular features, and a serious smile, giving people a solemn feeling.
This person is none other than the old general of the Meng family, Meng Xigui!
"General Meng is really a role model for our generation. He keeps getting stronger with age. Who can believe that Mr. Meng is almost eighty years old? Some people believe that he is forty or fifty years old!"
"Yes, the country has been at peace for so long, and there has been no war for decades. I have been idle and my figure has long been out of shape. Unlike General Meng, who still maintains the figure he had when he was young."
"I heard that General Meng, for decades, has been exercising every day at six o'clock in the morning, and then going to bed on time at nine o'clock in the evening. He is unshakeable, just like a young man who has just joined the army. He has always maintained the routine of the army. This
Such perseverance is admirable.”
One by one, the generals looked at General Meng with admiration.
Among them, the youngest ones are all over sixty years old, and their bodies are no longer in their prime, showing an old appearance, but General Meng's demeanor is almost as good as before.
"You guys are so complimentary."
Meng Xigui replied calmly, his voice low and powerful, "This time about my family's Pingjiang matter, I want you to speak kindly in front of the new commander."
"It's easy to say. Anyway, with Meng Pingjiang's ability, he will be promoted to major/general sooner or later. This time it is just a matter of a few years earlier with the new commander coming to power."
Everyone nodded. Whether Meng Pingjiang was promoted to major/general a few years earlier or a few years later, it didn't matter to them. They could just say a few nice words and sell Meng Xigui a favor.
"We have no problem here, we just don't know if the new commander will nod his head and agree. Does General Meng know who the new commander is?" someone asked curiously.
"I don't know the specifics. I just heard that he is very young and is the candidate chosen by the central government." Meng Xigui said in a calm voice, but with a strong confidence, "No matter what, he wants to take over."
As for the Jiangnan War Department, they will sell me some thin noodles!"
