Chapter 298 The position of the governor

(The third update is here! There is another update today! Please give me a reward!)

When Li Jing asked that sentence, the judge of the Jiedushi Lei Gang seemed to suspect that he had heard it wrong. He looked at Li Jing in confusion, looking confused. Li Jing repeated the sentence in that low voice, and he finally made sure.

Silence, Lei Gang was very surprised. He did not expect Li Jing to ask such a question. Then he was angry. Li Jing was just a farmer and a Tutuan villager. He relied on Cui Yunqing's emphasis on promotion and promotion to gain his current status. Moreover, Ji Shuai also valued him very much and helped him with the promotion several times. In his opinion, Ji Shuai has now handed over the position of the Da Xie Village military envoy, which countless people were jealous of, and also added him a title of silence envoy. Li Jing should have been very happy and satisfied.

He never expected that Li Jing was so greedy and dared to bargain now. He was about to shout out a word, but he could see Li Jing's plain face and the fierce generals on the left and right. He suddenly realized that Li Jing was no longer the Li Jing he used to be. He saw the welcome grand occasion on the dock when Li Jing was just over. Not only was Li Jing strong, but he was also very popular now. According to the information he inquired, Li Jing had new Qingni City and Beisha City. After Li Jing was reorganized and adapted by Qingni City, there are now eight battalions of eight thousand soldiers. Although there are fewer soldiers in Qingni City, there are also three thousand soldiers. Li Jing brought back seven thousand soldiers from the fifth battalion. It turned out that Daxie Village also had six camps, including the Black Bear Camp, the Logistics Camp, the Gendarmerie Camp, the Auxiliary Battalion of Prison Wars, and the prisoner war transport camp.

There are 10,000 troops in Liaodong, and there are 13,000 troops in Daxie Village, which has a total of 24,000 troops. This does not include those public security brigades, urban management brigades, civil defense brigades, etc., in his opinion, they can almost count the people in the army.

When he came, Song Wei and Cui Yunqing told him that Li Jing had only two thousand soldiers on the surface. If he included the current Daxie Village, the number of soldiers should be five thousand, but the actual number of soldiers should be seven or eight thousand. He was a little surprised at that time. How could the small Daxie Village raise so many soldiers? He thought that among Li Jing's seven or eight thousand soldiers, there were only half of the elite soldiers, and the rest might be some auxiliary and logistics soldiers who gathered the number of people.

Who can know that Li Jing has quietly owned 24,000 troops. You must know that the entire Pinglu Army is only 37,500 troops. Although no matter which vassal state is now, the actual number of troops has long exceeded that of the troops. However, Li Jing has too many, and his troops are too elite.

He had more than 20,000 troops, occupied four cities, landed for a hundred miles, and had 400,000 or 500,000 people and arable land of one million mu. Li Jing had the qualifications to negotiate the conditions.

"The military envoy of Daxie Village is Jia Zhenyi. This is a very low position. From then on, Yanei has become a general on the side. When he came, Jieshuai also told me that Ji Yu was a favorite student of Cui Sima. He said that he was originally from General Song Wen's united camp, and he was also a family with Jieshuai. This time, Jieshuai specially asked me to bring me some blank official positions and proclaim them. General Ji Yu's generals can be appointed and promoted by you."

Li Jing shook his head: "That's not enough. I bought Daxie Village by myself. Can Song Jieshuai hold other people to settle down in this position? I have already promised my mentor and Song Jieshuai that I will continue to deliver money and food to Song Jieshuai in the future. At present, Song Jieshuai plans to ask me to help him get rid of Wang Jingwu and help him control Ziqing Town. Then I also want to get the part I deserve."

Li Jing is qualified to say such things now, and Li Jing believes that it is indeed the time to say this. Those who should be fought for must be fought for, and the small Da Xiezhai military envoy's position is still too low.

Lei Gang's face looked ugly. He held back his dissatisfaction and asked, "Why don't you know what kind of reward the yamen wants?"

Li Jing chuckled: "As long as Song Jieshuai is prepared and if there is a horse and a horse leads his troops to help, Wang Jingwu will definitely be destroyed. I won't say much. If things fail, I don't want anything. If things fail, then I will only ask for the same thing, and I will serve as the governor of Dengzhou and give my subordinates a military call. I will serve as the military envoy! Of course, even if I become the governor of Dengzhou, I and my brothers will still be loyal to Song Jieshuai. However, if the horse wants to run, I have to give the horse grass. I think the appropriate reward is also worth it."

"Governor of Dengzhou? Military Number?" Lei Gang took a breath of air conditioning. Li Jing really dared to speak.

Since the late Tang Dynasty, the small vassal states had two or three states, and the large 5 or six states. The general of Jieshu often also served as the governor of the prefectures where Yacheng was located. For example, Song Wei's current official position in the court was the General of Jinwu, and the governor of Ziqing was an envoy, and he also served as the governor of Qingzhou. In each vassal state, if the vassal states were controlled by Jieshu, the governors of each state below were generally served by military generals. Since the Li family was defeated and divided by the court, the governors of Ziqing Town were generally under the control of the Li family, the governors of the five states below were generally under the control of civil servants. For example, Cui Yunqing was the governor of Dengzhou, which was a civil servant.

However, now Song Wei gradually took over power. Deng, Lai, Qing, Zibo, Qi, and the five prefectures have basically reached an alliance by Song Wei, who joined forces with local clans and military leaders. After the exchange of interests, the governors of the five prefectures are now served by confidant generals sent by Song Wei. The current governor of Dengzhou, Song Wen, is a general of Song Wei and Cui Yunqing. At that time, it was Song Wei who reached an exchange of interests. Cui Yunqing entered Qingzhou and Song Wen took over the position of governor.

The position of the governor is very important. It can be said that among the vassal states, the position of the commander of the Jieshen is the first. So, the governor is a small vassal state, who is in charge of military and civil affairs, followed by the military towns below. Li Jing's current position can barely be regarded as a general of the military town. But he is still far from the governor. He wants the position of the governor as soon as he opens his mouth, so how can Lei Gang not be surprised?

What was even more surprising was that Li Jing’s request was not just the position of governor, he also wanted a military call.

The troops and horses of the vassal states in the late Tang Dynasty were generally organized by the vassal army, including five people, two corps, five corps, two corps, and five corps. Above the camp, the wings and the army were sometimes used together, and sometimes they were divided into the upper and lower regions. Among most vassal states, there were five battalions in one franchise, one franchise, and one franchise and ten battalions. For example, the Pinglu army was a military roster with more than 30,000 people. When the Pinglu army was first stationed in Yingzhou, western Liaoning, and belonged to the governor of Fanyang.

At that time, the Jiedushi of Fanyang included Lu Long and Ping Lu. The Ping Lu Army belonged to the outer camp soldiers. Later, because they did not follow An Lushan's rebellion, they were moved to Qingzhou by the court to form the Ping Lu Jiedu. Among some major vassal states, in addition to the main army, there were several outer town troops below. The highest chief of the army was called the military envoy, which belonged to the advanced organization of border troops such as guards, towns, and garrisons. Further up, the Jiedushi was the Jiedushi.

If you want a single military magistrate, Li Jing's army will break through the previous level of garrison and town, or even the level of guard and capture, and will directly reach the army. With a single army, this is really a smaller number than the Jiedushi. If he adds the position of governor he requests, Li Jing will be the governor of Dengzhou and the military magistrate, and he will be the commander of the Jiedushi.

Looking at Lei Gang's surprised look, Li Jing smiled and said, "Judge Lei should know that this general is now under 24,000 troops, and the current situation is indeed difficult to command and command. Therefore, I want to upgrade our army to a first army, divided into five wings in front, back, left and right, and five thousand troops in each wing. I have thought of the military number, so how about calling Zhendong Army?"

Lei Gang was now surprised and numb. Other foreign troops generally had five battalions of five or six thousand people, and the larger ones had three wings on the left, middle and right. Li Jing was even more determined. He not only needed a military horn, but also a large army of five wings, with more than 20,000 people.

After wiping the sweat on his forehead, he was still a little confused about how to decide. This time, Song Wei specially asked him, the fourth person in the Jiedu Mansion, to come. Even considering the urgent time, there was no need to ask for anything from afar. So Song Wei gave him full responsibility and asked him to negotiate with Li Jing and let Li Jing help him solve Wang Jingwu. He originally thought that Li Jing might take the opportunity to ask for an official position, or even money and food, and so on. But who would have thought that Li Jing's appetite was so big, the governor added the army's military number organized by the fifth wing.

This matter is a little beyond his tolerance.

"Judge Lei, you don't have to doubt my loyalty to Jishou. What you have to worry about now is to be guarded by Wang Jingwu suddenly figured it out. If he understood it, if he regretted not letting our army go to Zibo to suppress the bandits again, Jishou's plan would be vain."

Lei Gang was shocked and immediately woke up. It was not the time to argue about these things. If Wang Jingwu really understood and no longer asked Li Jing to send troops, then the plan to destroy Guo would be vain. If Li Jing insisted on sending troops, Wang Jingwu would definitely be suspicious, and it would be a desperate situation to jump over the wall.

Gritting his teeth, Lei Gang was struggling: "Okay, I promise you this matter. As long as General Li sends troops to help Song Jieshuai eliminate Wang Jingwu and others, after the matter is completed, I will give you the military call of the governor of Dengzhou and the military east army. However, although I promise you now, I will advise Jieshuai to return to Qingzhou, but I cannot guarantee the result."

Li Jing chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter. As long as you agree to me now, I will send troops. Please ask Judge Lei to go back to Qingzhou and Song Jieshuai to report my request. I then led my troops to arrive, hoping to get Song Jieshuai's promise. Otherwise, even if I arrive in Qingzhou, if I don't get a satisfactory reply, I will not fight with Wang Jingwu."

Lei Gangtou: "Of course."

After sending Lei Gang to the door, Li Jing did not forget to say the last sentence, "There is another sentence at the end. I don't mind helping Song Jieshuai eliminate Wang Jingwu with one hand. But if you agree later but don't fulfill your promise, then my army under my command has more than 20,000 brothers, so don't let me down."
