At the end of Jia Ke's letter, he also mentioned that Kaiping Guards still lacked two deputy qianhu, as well as a new chief bookkeeper. He looked at it carefully and found that it was all trivial matters.
In fact, Jia Ke thought that the killing of the chief secretary was the biggest thing, but in the eyes of Jiedushi Wang Tao, it was just a trivial matter. Instead, Jia Ke gave him 20,000 taels of silver. He thought it was a big deal, and this was what Jia Ke wanted to do.
If he gets closer, he will completely obey his orders from now on. In this case, he will regard Jia Ke as one of his own for the time being. As for what will happen in the future, it will depend on his future performance.
Wang Tao read the letter from beginning to end, his face was expressionless at first, and then he smiled. Liu Yu secretly saw clearly from below. After Wang Tao read the letter, he raised his head and said softly to Liu Yu
: "You have worked hard all the way. Go down and hand over the goods first, and then let the housekeeper arrange for you to have a night's rest. Tomorrow you will take my reply letter and go and talk to your master. As for other things, they are all small things, so he doesn't have to worry.
With me here in Xuanfu Town, he can't suffer any loss."
When Liu Yu heard Jiedushi Wang Tao's reply, he went down to rest with peace of mind.
After Liu Yu left, Wang Tao returned to his study and immediately wrote a letter to Jia Ke. The letter roughly said: Regarding Wang Wan's matter, he should not worry about it. Since Wang Wan violated the military order, it would be natural to be beheaded.
It's his own fault, so don't worry about it. He also said that the goods he sent have been received, and he is stationed at Kaiping Guard with peace of mind. If there is an opportunity in the future, he will not be forgotten when he has achieved military merit. Then he said that the two who are short of
Deputy Qianhu, chief bookkeeper, let him choose among the Kaiping guards and report it to the newspaper.
Wang Tao finished writing the letter, put it into the envelope, and sealed it with wax. He handed it to the housekeeper and asked him to hand it over to Jia Ke, the person who delivered the letter. Arrange a banquet for them tonight and let them go back tomorrow.
Liu Yu got a reply from Wang Tao in the evening, and the next day he took the soldiers and rushed back non-stop. When he went there, he was supposed to escort the silver coins and not go too fast. When he went back, he drove lightly and it took only three or four days to get back.
Kaipingwei.
As soon as he returned to Kaipingwei, Liu Yu immediately returned to Qianhu Mansion to restore Jia Ke's life.
At this time, Jia Ke was also anxiously waiting for Liu Yu's reply. As soon as he heard that Liu Yu was back, he immediately asked him to go to the study to reply.
Liu Yu got Jia Ke's reply and immediately went to the study to see him. As soon as Liu Yu entered the study, he saw Jia Ke already sitting behind the desk waiting for him.
When Jia Ke saw him coming in, he didn't waste any time and asked directly: "Has Jiedushi received the silver? Do you have any reply?"
Liu Yu immediately replied to Jia Ke and said: "The Jiedushi Master has already collected the money, and the Jiedushi Master asked me to reply to the uncle. What the uncle said in the letter is just a trivial matter. Don't worry about it. And there is a reply letter, so I will
Bring it back and show it to the uncle." He took out the reply letter and presented it to Jia Ke with both hands.
Jia Ke took the letter and opened it, read the new content, and breathed a sigh of relief. Although he said it was reasonable and legal to kill the chief secretary this time, he was still speechless. Now Jiedushi, that is, said
If there is nothing, then it is really nothing. Later, they also said that he would be allowed to choose his deputy Qianhu, which would be more conducive to his control of Kaipingwei.
As for the candidate for the chief clerk, he has not decided yet. After all, he has only been in Kaipingwei for a short time, especially the few scholars he knows, but there is no need to rush. There is plenty of time, and a suitable candidate will be found slowly.
It seems that during this period, he personally managed the money and food matters in the army, and let the few remaining clerks help him. He would familiarize himself with it for a while, and also see if there were any suitable people under his subordinates? If there was a suitable person,
, just promote him directly.
Now that all the troubles have been settled, it's time to start training the army.
Early the next morning, Jia Ke finished his martial arts practice. He ordered his soldiers to pass the order and all the hundreds of households went to the lobby of Qianhu Mansion to wait. By then, he had important matters to discuss.
Hundreds of households, hearing that it was Jia Ke who was delivering the order, did not dare to delay at all. At two quarters of the morning (about eight o'clock in the morning), they arrived at the lobby of Qianhu Mansion.
When Jia Ke heard that all the households had arrived, he went to the lobby to meet with them.
As soon as Jia Ke entered the lobby, all the hundreds of households bowed and saluted, and said in unison: "Welcome to you, sir."
Jia Ke was very satisfied with this situation. Which leader in the past and present did not want his subordinates to be respectful and polite to him. Jia Ke felt that he should be considerate and never neglect his boss when facing him in the future. He would rather give more courtesy than let others say
Poor etiquette.
Jia Ke was thinking as he sat in the middle of the hall, and these hundreds of households lined up on both sides.
Jia Ke sat on it, looked at the hundreds of households below and said, "I invite you all to come this time. There are a few things I want to discuss with you."
The hundreds of households below responded one after another: "Your Majesty has the final say on Kaipingwei matters, and we will definitely obey your orders."
Jia Ke nodded and said, "Even so, I still want to tell everyone." After Jia Ke said this, he looked down and saw that all these hundreds of households were holding their breath and listening to him carefully.
Then he continued: "What I want to talk about today are mainly two things. The first one is that there are big problems with our current military formation. I decided to rehearse a new formation. At the same time, we will open up the Pingwei Center.
Although the sergeants are all elite, they still have great deficiencies in terms of discipline and obedience. I have decided to retrain them. The instructors for the training will all be people from my own army. You have
What's your opinion? You can tell me more."
Baihu standing below, you look at me, I look at you. Finally, an older Jin Baihu came out to speak.
The Jin Baihu said to Jia Ke in embarrassment: "I wonder if your Excellency is going to send personal soldiers to each Baihu for a long time, or on an odd-hour basis?"
Jia Ke had long seen their little thoughts and said to them: "It is both long-term and temporary. The temporary is because after the training is completed, they will come back to me. The long-term
Well, it’s because after training, if any of the households relapses, they still have to go back and train again. So whether they are temporary or long-term depends on whether you households can restrain the team?"
When the hundreds of households heard that it turned out to be what happened, and that they were not trying to seize their military power, they all felt relieved. Some households immediately expressed their stance to Jia Ke and said, "Sir, just send someone to my household.
Those little bastards under my command should have been trained a long time ago, they are not up to par all day long."
Seeing that everyone agreed to this, Jia Ke finally made the decision and said: "In that case, I will send people down in a few days. Two people will be sent from each hundred households, and each person will train fifty soldiers. It will take about
For one month, hundreds of you must also train together. You must eat, live and train with them. You can’t do anything special."
The hundreds of households were still a little embarrassed to hear his last request. After all, they were still officials after all. Training with those big-headed soldiers was really a bit embarrassing. But seeing that Jia Ke had already made up his mind, it seemed that he would not change it.
They didn't dare to object, thinking that it would only take a month anyway, and it would pass if they endured it. But they didn't expect that this month would be a completely different change for them. From now on, these people would
He became Jia Ke's die-hard loyalist. In the future, he would follow Jia Ke in the north and south, blocking in the east and killing in the west, and he would never lose again.
