Murong Luo did his job very neatly. That night, he and Cui Qian sent the injured Zhao Ziming and Zhou Daniu to Li Xu's military camp. There were also more than 200 soldiers who came with him, all of whom were soldiers when Xu Zi was in Xiongwu Camp.
Confidants. They stayed in the Fenyang Army under the pretext of protecting Zhou Daniu and Zhao Ziming, and never planned to look back.
One day later, the school captains Lu Qin and Liu Yi came to visit on the pretext of visiting a doctor. After chatting for a while, they asked, "Since the general can open a mansion and build a government office, why don't you go to your majesty's place?"
To give you a good idea, please bring the two of us together. We will save everyone the worry and fear of spending every day in the Xiongwu Camp!"
Li Xu was surprised and happy, and asked the reason with his eyes wide open. Lu Qin said with a wry smile: "On that day, Qin Xingshi led us to rescue Ziming and Daniu, and then had a fierce battle with Yu Wenhuaji in a daze. Who?
The overwhelming evidence did not touch the Yuwen family at all, and Yuwenshi and the general were still the commanders of the Xiongwu Camp. Qin Canjun was so angry that he left with his seal the next day. Among the rest of the brothers, the two of us were the highest ranking
.Now that the Yuwen family has just committed a crime, they naturally tolerate it again and again. If the Yuwen family can recover from this, neither of us will have any backers, and we may die without even knowing how to die in the future!"
"Are Yuwenshi and General very ruthless? I remember that he was not such a person at the beginning?" Li Xu thought for a while and asked. He remembered that Qin Xingshi was sent to him by Tang Gong Li Yuan. This person must be hiding now.
Arriving at Li Shimin's army. According to calculations, it is estimated that Mr. Qin may not have been behind Zhou Daniu and others' attempts to overthrow the Yuwen family that day. The struggle between these aristocratic families is too complicated, and they are not yet firmly established, so it is better not to get involved too early.
.
"General Yu Wenshi is indeed not such a person, but he must think about his family first!" Lu Qin grinned and replied with a wry smile. "Back then, we followed General Li, and within three months we were replaced by ordinary soldiers.
He was promoted to the rank of brigade commander. In the past few years, he followed Yu Wenshi and the generals in their expeditions. It is estimated that the number of enemy heads cut off was at least 50 to 60, but he only rose one level, and there was no chance to go further.
Those who were put in by the Yuwen family, even if they did not participate in the war, still deserved a lot of credit. Seeing the governor, they sealed a lot of them! If any brothers complain a little, they will be plotted later. Whether they are injured or killed,
Yuwenshi and the general have never been able to find out who was responsible."
Li Xu was short of low-level officers who were brave and good at fighting. After thinking about it, he smiled and promised: "I can try my best to arrange this matter, but it is hard to say whether it will succeed. Besides, the Fenyang Army belongs to the border army, and I, a general, am in the middle of the court."
There is no foundation, and the food and salary in the future will definitely not be as generous as those in Xiongwu Camp. You two should think carefully about it, so as not to regret it if you don't get along as you want in the future!"
"What qualifications do I have to care about food and wages until now." Liu Yi shook his head, with a wry smile on his face, "If General Li can't transfer the two of us from Xiongwu Camp, as soon as the army leaves Yanmen, I and other young men will have to follow Qin's example.
If you join the army, you might as well go home and farm. Anyway, there are so many deserters these days, and the government probably won’t be able to catch them!"
"It's not just me, the emperor is too partial to the Yuwen family this time, and he is not willing to pay the real reward for the defense of the city. I'm afraid that as soon as the army leaves Yanmen, there will be a lot of people on the road!" Lu Qin also grinned and smiled bitterly.
When I was working under Li Xu, I always felt that although my general was brave, his scheming methods were too simple and he did not look like someone who could achieve great things. After these two years of experience, I realized whether my general could achieve great things and whether he could be considered a hero.
, are far from one's own interests. Working behind a scheming and ruthless coach is far less comfortable than following a man with an open mind. If nothing else, first of all, the four words "clear rewards and punishments", the former is
It's simply impossible to do it.
Li Xu smiled and nodded again, promising that if the brothers really had no place to go, they could consider temporarily staying in the Fenyang Army to avoid the limelight. Anyway, there were many vacancies in the Fenyang Army, and there were more than 1,800 people of unknown origin who could not tell anything.
Flaw. Lu and Liu thanked their brothers and mentioned several other old friends from Xiongwu Camp. "Brother Qijin died tragically under Yu Wenhuaji's sword. Everyone could not avenge him, so we had to kill him first."
I kept the hatred in my heart and slowly looked for opportunities. Murong Luo and Li Anyuan ran away early. Qin Gang, who joined the army in the Ming Dynasty, was sent to the mountain by a monk last year. Sun Jin, the doctor in our army, left not long after you left, saying
It was because I had seen too much blood in the first half of my life, and in the second half of my life I had to hang my hat to save the world. The remaining old people either died in the battle, or became the best friends of the Yuwen family. The one who has done the best in the past is the general's cousin Zhang Xiu..." Lu
Qin glanced at Xuzi, wondering whether he should continue this topic.
"What's wrong with Zhang Xiu? I saw him among the generals when I went to court. Looking at his robes, he is now a general, right?" Li Xu asked with the expression on his face unchanged, as if he was chatting casually.
"He is already a Guidelang general, and he has made a solid contribution to the fourth rank. This time Yuwen Shiji managed to get out of trouble, and it is said that it is mostly due to him. I estimate that when Yuwen Shiji recovers his strength, he will be the first to recommend him.
It's him!" Liu Yi curled his lips, obviously very disdainful of Zhang Xiu's character.
"What ability does he have that he can actually help the Yuwen family at this moment?" Li Xu felt a little strange and asked with a frown.
"The two of us don't know much about it. But I heard from several brothers who are close to the Yuwen family that the matter of stealing and selling military rations is by no means as simple as everyone knows now. If we are pursued, not only the Yuwen family will be in great trouble.
, there are still many people in the court who will be unlucky. But those people from the Yuwen family who were involved in this matter, all died out of nowhere. At the beginning, the Imperial Army was surrounded by our brothers from the Xiongwu Camp, and there was no chance for others to go in and kill people.
And just when the old general came in and out, someone helped Yuwen's family and cut off all the troubles. It is said that other people who entered the camp at that time were in the army and cried with Yuwen Shiji. Only Zhang Xiu
The generals have gone out before!" Lu Qin shrugged his shoulders and concluded in a low voice.
"Although the imperial court did not kill Yuwen Wenhua and his brothers, Yuwenshi and General became the heads of the Yuwen family. General, think about it, isn't this show a big contribution?" Liu Yi shook his head and added.
His cousin took a completely different path from his own. To this day, Xuzi still can't hate Zhang Xiu in his heart. The betrayal of the other party back then caused him deep hurt, and his current behavior style also makes him feel very sad.
Disdainful. But in his eyes, it was all a way to climb up. He understood the temptations Zhang Xiu faced before he adopted similar means. Over the years, he himself had struggled with those temptations time and time again. If he hadn't always thought in his heart,
If you stick to something, you might have become another Zhang Xiu.
"Another person who has made a lot of noise is Cui Qian. He has the support of his family behind him, and he is a well-rounded person. So although the Yuwen family members can't get along with him, they don't dare to offend him too much!"
After telling the story about Zhang Xiu, Lu Qin naturally mentioned the captain Cui Qian. "But this time, he seemed to be chilled. Before the two of us came to visit the Lord, Brother Tui once mentioned to the two of us,
He wanted to return to work near his hometown, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity!"
"I am from Boling, so it is more appropriate to join the Fenyang Army. I am going to the six counties of Hebei, and I just need someone who is familiar with the local customs and customs." Li Xu clearly knew what kind of response Cui Qian wanted to get, and smiled at Lu
, Liu and the two exchanged opinions.
In the future, he will lead the army to station in Boling area, and he will need the support of big local families. If Cui Qianqian takes the initiative to help the army, it will be much easier for him to deal with the local people. Those family forces have as much influence in the local area as the government, and in them
If they are willing to cooperate, Li Xu doesn't want to make the relationship between them too stiff.
Of course, Cui Qian repeatedly revealed that he wanted to serve in the Fenyang Army, and he must have thought carefully about it. The Fenyang Army was stationed in front of their house, and the Boling Cui family had no choice but to reach out to it. It was just that they wanted to win over Li Xu.
He planned to incorporate the other party into his own family and become a puppet and servant of the Cui family. But now, both sides have their own advantages. As long as Xuzi is careful enough, a kind of cooperation between his power and the Cui family can be achieved, instead of
The relationship between swallowing and being swallowed.
After seeing off Lu and Liu, other guests soon arrived one after another. There were old troops from the Xiongwu Camp, and some relatives and friends of the imperial officials. Under the leadership of the fierce general Li Xu and with the support of Yang Guang,
, it is a foregone conclusion that General Fenyang will regain his prestige in a short period of time. Many people have seen this, so they are doing everything they can to catch a ride. There are also some people who are seeking to win over and lay the foundation for future cooperation.
Xuzi came to visit, referring to his experience in taking charge of the Xiongwu Camp at the beginning, and dealt with them carefully, so that most of the visitors who did not have too many malicious intentions returned happily. For those who continued to look up to the sky, trying to bring the Fenyang Army under their command,
Li Xu didn't show any good looks to Li Xu, who was so crazy. He turned against him when it was time to rebel, kicked people out when it was time to kick them out, and caused several lobbyists to flee.
While carefully dealing with his colleagues, Li Xu started to sort out the Fenyang Army. The stalls left by Yun Dingxing were basically complete, but the number of officers and soldiers was seriously insufficient. Based on the battlefield observations for more than half a month, Xu Zi obtained the information from Fenyang Army.
Dozens of the lower-level soldiers of the Yang Army were promoted, and a dozen more were selected from among the former soldiers who had come to join them. By combining the two sides, the internal framework of the Fenyang Army was quickly rebuilt.
There was a batch of ordnance hidden in Yanmen City, and Li Xu captured tens of thousands of military horses and Hu people's weapons during the pursuit. After giving some to Qin Shubao and Luo Shixin to take with the old general Zhang Xutuo, he still had a lot left in his hands.
Young Master, he informed Yang Guang and replenished the Fenyang Army with these thousands of mounts and all equipment. He then turned to Zhao Xiaocai, the Minister of War, and asked for a large sum of military pay, which was distributed to each soldier on a per-capita basis.
The frontier army of the Great Sui Dynasty has always been known for its bravery. With sufficient supplies, the entire Fenyang Army suddenly took on a new look. At Pei Ju's suggestion, Yang Guang personally went to the army for a review. He saw the people standing in the front row.
One by one, the soldiers improved in stature, were full of energy, and were in a happy mood. When they came back, they didn't even look at it. They raised their hands and approved Li Xu's application to transfer several former troops from the Xiongwu Camp to serve in the Fenyang Army.
Of course, Yang Guang didn't know that Xu Zi had paid a large sum of money to Pei Ju and Yu Shiji for this. The two people in charge of the government originally disliked Li Xu, but now that he knew how to advance and retreat, they agreed with Dugu Lin's inference that day.
, just count the contributions and don’t embarrass them. (To be continued)
