Chapter five hundred and ninety-ninth military power
"Grandmaster, General Hansheng and I have completely controlled the county soldiers and come and report!"
In the prefect of Jiangxia, Liu Pan responded to Liu Qi with great enthusiasm.
"well done!"
Liu Qi leaned halfway on the couch, and his complexion was much better than when he first met. He encouraged: "The general should continue to work hard and make up for the gap as soon as possible. The county magistrate's office will cooperate well, and there will be no shortage of food, grass and weapons!"
startled!
Liu Pan looked up and said in confusion: "Young Master, will you control the entire county and county soldiers in Jiangxia next?"
This is the most normal step to master Jiangxia’s military power.
"I have obtained accurate information. Hundreds of thousands of troops under Cao Mengde's troops are about to enter Jingzhou!"
Liu Qi's tone was calm, but his words were thundering on the ground. He asked calmly: "If Cao Mengde's northern army swept over, the general would have time to gather the disobedient troops of the other counties?"
He paused at this point and said leisurely: "You know, the actions of the two generals have caused dissatisfaction among the local tyrants in Jiangxia!"
In other words, he had no feelings for the so-called powerful family. If it were the original owner, he would have had concerns.
With the "prompt points" of Liu Dang, the leader of the personal guard, I am afraid that I have become dissatisfied with Liu Pan and Huang Zhong at this time.
This is the method of the powerful family. It is hard to defend against every hole.
Upon hearing this, Liu Pan's heart trembled, his complacent expression disappeared, and he hurriedly bowed his hands and said in a deep voice: "I will definitely not let you down!"
Obviously, he was very afraid of the local tyrants in Jiangxia.
It’s not that I’m afraid of their strength, but that I dare not underestimate the influence of local tyrants. My previous painful experiences are vivid in my mind.
Even the late Jingzhou Muji Liu Biao could not save his position as his nephew who had made great achievements when he was sick, which shows how powerful the powerful family in Jingzhou is.
He was a little worried that Liu Qi was dissatisfied, after all, he was not familiar with Jiangxia's situation when he was just a newcomer.
"Don't worry, General!"
Liu Qi saw the guy’s thoughts at a glance and said calmly: “Now is the critical moment of life and death. Since the two generals were invited by me to take charge of the army, they are naturally trustworthy, at least more trust than the powerful people of the Jingzhou family!”
Liu Pan was shocked and suddenly remembered the experience of the eldest son Liu Qi. He immediately calmed down and felt relieved. There was no need to worry about the threat from Jiangxia's powerful men for the time being.
At the same time, I feel the burden on my body is heavy...
As soon as he thought about it, he might soon face the powerful soldiers who dominate the north. Liu Pan was excited and under great pressure.
With his understanding of the Jingzhou army, he did not think that the long-desolated Jingzhou army could withstand the elite troops of Prime Minister Cao, and were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of combat effectiveness and number of people.
The key is that Jingzhou does not have such an amazing commander, and the generals from wealthy families do not have the determination and courage to fight to the death.
I believe that when the Cao army comes, these generals in command of Jingzhou will surely abandon Liu Cong, the newly appointed governor of Jingzhou, and surrender to the powerful Prime Minister Cao.
Thinking of this, Liu Pan suddenly reacted. The eldest son in front of him must have a clear idea, otherwise he would not have invited him and Huang Hansheng to help.
In other words, the Jingzhou family at this time could not get the trust of the eldest son at all.
"Do it well. If you can overcome this difficulty, you will definitely not disappoint the two generals!"
Liu Qi spoke calmly and promised: "If things are inconsistent, two generals need to protect my safety!"
Liu Pan was shocked. Thinking about the huge danger that he was about to face, all his ambitions disappeared. Zheng Xinting said: "When I really reach that step, General Hansheng and I will definitely never leave us!"
"I believe in the two generals!"
...
With the full support of the prefect Liu Qi, Liu Pan and Huang Zhong immediately let go of their hands and feet and worked hard.
Training soldiers, recruiting new recruits, thieves in the Xia territory improve combat power, etc., it is easy to pull up an army of ten thousand people.
The massive amount of money and military supplies, coupled with the mighty power of the army of ten thousand people, made the local tycoons in Jiangxia so envious that their eyes were red.
They have a close relationship with the former prefect Huang Zu. The family's children are the backbone of Huang Zu's army and have long regarded the county soldiers as their own.
At the beginning, the eldest son Liu Qi had to rely on their strength to maintain the stability of the Jiangxia County soldiers, which made them feel a little proud.
Who would have thought that the situation changed in a blink of an eye, and the eldest son actually invited Liu Pan and Huang Zhong from Jingnan to directly control the main force of the county soldiers and put the local tyrants aside.
Seeing the county soldiers replenishing their personnel, and as the weapons and food in the warehouse were continuously transported to the military camp, they stopped doing it.
Several powerful families with great influence in Jiangxia joined forces to go to the prefect's mansion to discuss an explanation.
After seeing Liu Qi, they immediately expressed their dissatisfaction and hoped that the eldest son could treat everyone equally.
"You all want to take charge of the army, okay!"
"The county soldiers are full here, but the county soldiers and township soldiers below are extremely short of money. You can focus on your mind!"
"Of course, the food, grass and military equipment in Kukuli are consumed heavily. If you want to take charge of county and township soldiers, you have to pay for the food themselves!"
"I have requests after you take charge of the troops. Even if you can't disturb the people or destroy the local county order, otherwise don't blame me for turning against you!"
"In addition, county soldiers and township soldiers must obey orders at critical moments. This is my condition. If you agree, you can take action as soon as possible!"
Several powerful heads looked at each other, not expecting that the eldest son was so easy to talk to.
Since that's the case, it's not easy for them to continue to struggle, so they're shameless.
At present, the eldest son is in charge of tens of thousands of county soldiers, and he is no longer the short-selling airs he used to be. They dare not give face as much as before.
I really want to get angry. In this era of war, who knows whether the eldest son will take the risk?
The Liu family is not a law-abiding existence. This has been the case since Liu Bang, the Emperor Taizu of the Western Han Dynasty. They don’t want to take risks.
It is acceptable for them to gain control of county soldiers and township soldiers. As for the money, grain and materials they spend, they can naturally be regained through other means in the future.
From then on, the eldest son always valued the powerful family as always, and they obviously thought too much before.
After receiving the accurate letter and the appointment documents of the prefect's office, the powerful heads of the family would naturally not be ignorant and hurriedly expressed that they would take out some of the money and grain as their "will" to support the eldest son in charge of Jiang Xia.
Looking at the backs of several powerful Jiangxia masters leaving happily, Liu Qi was expressionless and was in a state of turmoil. He was just a few clowns.
Liu Dang, who is not as strong as the average general, seems to be in a strong position in Jingzhou.
Unfortunately, it was too short and it was too late, otherwise Liu Qi would have the idea and idea to start the prosperous era of martial arts...
