Chapter 299

(The fourth update is delivered! Please vote!)

"Zhenzhu troops are here!" The plaque outside the Shamen Town General's mansion had just been replaced as Zhenzhu troops. Li Jing's personal guard leader Zhao Jiang ran a few steps, first entered the entrance of the Qinglang Conference Hall, and shouted loudly.

Following the sound, Li Jing stepped into the lobby in a dark scarlet official robe, smiled at the people in the hall and said, "Everyone has arrived."

In the lobby, the civil and military were clearly divided, and the civil and military were on the left and right. When Li Jing came in, the military officer clasped his fists and bowed his hands, shouting in unison: "Congratulations to the general for being promoted to the army and horse envoy! Congratulations to General!"

Li Jing stepped onto the north platform, sat on the iron seat, waved his right hand and said, "No gift, everyone will take a seat."

At this time, dozens of people were gathered in the hall, and compared with Li Jing's battle, there were fewer familiar people but many more strange faces. In addition to Zhang Hong, Du Zhongwu, and Cui Zhiyuan, the civil servants added new staff officer Li Liang and the chief secretary Guo Cheng'an. Although these two people were newly joined, their positions were not low. Li Liang gave special advice and senators, while Guo Cheng'an took the matter of documents. Although Zhang Hong, the former steward, military officer, still held the position of military officer, in fact, many of the rights that originally belonged to him were separated by Li Liang and Guo Cheng'an.

There are more new faces on the military generals. Behind Lin Wu, there are the new deputy ten generals of the Silver Guards Battalion, Pei You, the ten generals of the Control Crane Camp, Li Juyi, the deputy ten generals of Guo Zhenhai, and there are also the cavalry generals Gao Rong, the sect, Fu'an, Cao Meng, Li Biao, Yu Bao, Gao Duo, Mao Youliang, Yang Xing'an, Ma Ruhai, and Chen Xianjin.

Although the civil and military officials were separated from each other, you can find it carefully. After this expansion of the army, the attitudes of the military generals and the elderly towards civil officials such as Zhang Hong have changed drastically. These civil and military officials seem to have abandoned the previous prejudices and began to draw a boundary for the newly joined civil and military officials. On both sides of the civil and military, the old and new people were obviously separated by a boundary.

Guo Chengan was not very unhappy about Li Jing transferring him from Beisha City to Shamen Island. Instead, he felt that this was Li Jing's value to him. As the secretary, he was a very powerful position. As soon as he entered the hall, he took the initiative to greet Zhang Hong, the butler beside Li Jing, but Zhang Hong just smiled and said perfunctory words perfunctorily, obviously keeping a distance and not willing to approach. However, the staff officer Li Liang was said to have just joined for a while, but he was very respected by the military envoy. He stepped forward to say hello, and Li Liang's attitude was much better than Zhang Hong. Although his words were plain, he did not at least not as cold as he would to keep people from thousands of miles away.

He looked around the hall, and half of the old and new civil servants were there. Zhang Hong, Du Zhongwu, and Cui Zhiyuan were all there, and only one recorder, Li Chun stayed in Qingni City. He had already inquired clearly and knew that Du Zhongwu and Cui Zhiyuan were not only the first literary agents to follow Li Jing, but also Du Zhongwu also married Li Jing's youngest sister. Although Cui Zhiyuan was a Silla native, he married Li Jing's widow sister-in-law. Both of them were highly valued by Li Jing. Needless to say, Zhang Hong could see that he was a scholar with no talent. However, he worked diligently and had no obvious contribution to the trivial matters around Li Jing, but he was just a hard work and a character that could not be ignored.

On the side of the military generals, Lin Wei, Wang Chong and Lin Wu also became a gang of Li Jing and had a few more relatives. Only Lin Wei from the Black Bear Camp was here, and he also married Li Jing's fourth sister. Lin Wu was stationed in Qingni City, and Wang Chong, who took Li Jing's widowed sister-in-law, led the Qinglang Camp to guard Beisha City. In addition, Xuancheng of the Tiebi Camp, Li Hui from the Feiying Camp, and the two charming beauty generals of Hu Ji in the Nutao Camp, were already well-known in Liaodong. The remaining few camps, military police, logistics, baggage, engineers, transportation, and auxiliary soldiers, were just some second-line camps, and he didn't care much about it.

Seeing that Pei You, who had previously been in the Liaohai, was only standing in the middle of the military generals, Guo Cheng'an smiled in his heart, and felt that his heart was much more balanced. The strong dragon did not suppress the local snake. Although he felt that there were not many particularly outstanding people on the side of the civil officials, these people were the first to follow Li Jing, and their weight in Li Jing's heart was not comparable to those of them who had just joined halfway. However, he had confidence that as long as time was added, he could prove his ability to Li Jing.

Lin Wei's mentality was better among the many old subordinates of Li Jing in the hall. After all, although there were suddenly many new generals after the expansion and they were all on the same level as him, he knew that his abilities were still something that Li Jing appreciated and relied on. What's more, he not only Li Jing's sworn brother, but also married Li Jing's sister. With just a few times Li Jing sent troops, he let him stay at home, so it can be seen that Li Jing's trust and reliance on him is irreplaceable to the new generals of Pei You and Guo Zhenhai.

Only Zhang Hong felt uncomfortable. Seeing Li Liang as the staff officer, Guo Chengan also served as the chief secretary. Speaking of which, these two positions should actually be above the military officials. Li Jing was nostalgic and still made him the first place in the civil servants, but he knew that his ability was originally just a county assistant minister, and now he could reach his position today was entirely due to Li Jing's nostalgic love. However, the bigger the family business, he was more and more difficult. It was inevitable that the newcomer would take office. Although he told himself this in his heart, when the day really came, he still felt a little complicated in his heart.

Li Jing glanced at the subordinates in the hall and saw that everyone was excited, excited, and a little disappointed. He was very careful. Seeing Zhang Hong lowering his head, Li Jing felt aroused and took the initiative to say, "Did Brother Zhang be tired all the way when he came back, and his body was still a little tired. Why not rest at home for a few days, and leave the affairs of the military to his subordinates to deal with. Your health is important. You are the veteran and the butler in my monk's army, so you can't be exhausted."

Hearing these comforting words, Zhang Hong couldn't help but choke up. Li Jing did not call him his official position but called him brother. This is a personal relationship. "Don't worry, although I am old, this old bone can still manage affairs for the general. But I also feel that I am old and my health is always a little ineffective, and I am a little unable to do many things. Now the general recruits talents and has the assistance of Staff Li and Secretary Guo. I feel incompetent and willing to abdicate and give in to the general, and just step down to manage the warehouse for the general."

Seeing that he was sincere, Li Jing knew that this was a true word. He did not deliberately retreat to advance. He was also a little emotional at the moment. Zhang Hong's loyalty was not doubted, but now that his family business is big, letting him be the leader of his staff is indeed a burden. He said, "My brother has worked hard for me for a long time. Now that he is getting older this year, it is better to share some things with Staff Li and Secretary Guo. My brother only cares about money and food. This is a matter of military affairs, and it is really troublesome to guard against people, namely accounts, military equipment, keys, horses and donkeys, civil engineering, and exile punishment. I think it is better to promote Xiao Kai as the leader."

Li Jing promoted Zhang Hong and Li Chun to serve as military officials, but Zhang Hong only cared about money, grain management, and not only used his ability to prevent him from overbearing. Li Jing was temporarily vacant and was not given up. Zhang Hong was in charge of money, grain management, and Li Hong was temporarily stayed in Qingni City. Li Liang was in charge of strategy and planning, and Guo Cheng'an was in charge of secretary, and several civil servants were temporarily on par.

After comforting and adjusting Zhang Hong's post, Li Jing said to everyone: "You are the old brothers who were in Dengzhou Tuanjie Camp with me, as well as the brothers who later followed Shamen Town, and the new brothers who just followed from Liaodong. But whether the old brothers or new brothers are all my brothers. We brothers have worked hard, now we first pacify Daxie Village and then fight in Liaodong. Now we finally have Shamen Town, Daxie Village, Qingnigang City and Beishashan City, with more than 20,000 troops, a hundred miles of land, and hundreds of thousands of people."

"Justice Song has just issued a formal letter and promoted me to the military envoy of Daxie Village and was given a title of rank of silence. In addition, Song Jie Song also gave a blank statement to the civil and military officials of our army, and I will carefully promote and appoint all the officials under the Daxie Village."

Although everyone had known this news, everyone could not help but get excited, especially Lin Wei and other generals who followed Li Jing first. Thinking about how weak they were when they first came, they were plotted by Dengzhou navy Wang Jin and Daxiezhai Feng Zhang. If it were not easy, they would finally get ahead. With Song Wei's order, they could finally occupy Daxiezhai with righteousness and no worries.

Li Jing continued: "Of course, there are still many people who don't want to see us in controlling Daxie Village. Wang Jingwu, the general of Qingzhou, was unwilling to see this result. Just now, there was a big thief Hong Balang in Zibo and the two states of Qi who caused trouble. The local soldiers and horses were endless. Wang Jingwu proposed to send troops to Zibo and Qi to suppress the bandits. Just now, Judge Lei had already conveyed military orders to me on behalf of Song Jieshuai, requiring us to send troops to suppress the bandits within three days. I have agreed. Now everyone discusses how we send troops."

After Li Liang asked about Hong Balang some of the situation, he suggested: "Hong Balang is just a small horse thief. I see that it is not advisable to send too many troops. Too many troops will not only not only have the speed of marching, but also have troubles in logistics supply."

"I meant that I was only going to dispatch the Crane Control Cavalry Battalion, but after thinking about it, I decided to bring the Silver Gun Guard Battalion, the Flying Eagle Reconnaissance Battalion and the Nutao Battalion. We planned not to go by land, but to board the ship directly at the Shamen Island Wharf and enter the Yellow River, and go directly to Zibo to suppress the bandits. The ship transported troops, which not only accelerated the speed, but also reduced the burden on logistics support." Li Jing said his plan. Li Jing did not tell anyone about the matter of going to Qingzhou to eradicate Wang Jingwu on the way. This matter was too confidential and it would not work. He planned to wait for the ship to explain to Li Liang and a few others.

In this way, six thousand soldiers were dispatched, and if the logistics personnel were added, there might be tens of thousands. This was the largest dispatch in Shamen Town. Zhang Hong wanted to raise an objection, but when he saw the staff officer Li Liang and the secretary Guo Chengan were sitting there without looking half anxious, he knew that things might not be as simple as they seemed, so he closed his mouth cautiously.
