Wu Nian sensed something was wrong and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"
It shouldn't be.
Guangchuan Prefecture was created by the Meng Yuan people who threw away their excess fat and made me and Xiong Wuwo compete for it.
The Meng Yuan people have currently disbanded tens of thousands of Han households and are training heavy armor, heavy ax soldiers, and divine arm archers. They should have no idea of invading Yingqing Mansion.
And I won the battle with Xiong Wuwo, and obtained four county towns.
What else could be bad?
"Report to the general. The Fuso pirates Torii Kunihiko led the pirates to attack Lijiaji in Jinghai County, burning, killing and looting. There were many casualties among the people."
The soldier's face was ashen. After standing still, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
"What the hell is this!!!!" Wu Nian angrily slapped the armrest of the Grand Master's chair and stood up, showing an angry face and said, "Everyone is going to act wild on my head, right?"
"Anyone dares to come and burn and kill my Han family people, right?"
But Wu Nian soon calmed down. Fuso pirates are rampant on the sea, not just for a day or two. After he took over Guangchuan Mansion, he was mentally prepared to fight the pirates.
Wu Nian suppressed the anger in his heart and sat back. After pondering for a while, he raised his head and said, "Go find Li Tianbao."
"yes."
The soldier responded, turned around and went down.
after awhile. A group of soldiers came in with Li Tianbao. The soldiers were responsible for their duties and looked at Li Tianbao with eager eyes.
"General." Li Tianbao didn't care about this and bowed his hands to Wu Nian calmly.
"Yes. Sit down." Wu Nian nodded, then looked up at the soldiers and said, "This is one of our own. There is no need to be so tense. Let's go out."
"Yes." The soldiers bowed in response, turned around and went down.
"Thank you for sitting down." Li Tianbao thanked him, sat down, and lowered his head slightly, very humble.
Wu Nian looked up at him and said: "Li Zhuangshi. In the battle of Guangchuan Mansion, you have done a great job. I only gave you a box of Dongzhu as a reward, but I didn't agree to make you a Qianhu. To be honest, you Are you feeling unhappy?"
"I don't dare." Li Tianbao said quickly. It's a bit unpleasant to say it, but I can't say it out loud.
Wu Young shook his head lightly, and then said: "Li Zhuangshi. With all due respect, I don't know much about you. I know that you are known as the Sea Dragon King and dare to lead your companions to fight against pirates."
"This proves that you are capable."
"And when Xiong Wuwo and I were fighting for Wanghai Mountain, you quickly decided to help me, and you saw at a glance that Wanghai Mountain was very important. It proved that you have vision and your heart is for me. I also treat you as one of my own. .”
"That's why I have to think carefully. Because leading troops to fight is not a child's play. How many generals have died in battle since ancient times?"
"I'll give you a box of Dongzhu. As long as your family doesn't gamble, it will be rich for at least three generations. If you go to the battlefield and trust others, you may die tomorrow."
Li Tianbao was very moved in his heart, and these words really came from the bottom of his heart. Those who can dig deep into their hearts and say these words to their subordinates are definitely good bosses and good officers.
He took a deep breath, resolutely, clasped his fists and saluted: "I understand the general's intention. But I still want to be a thousand households." At this point, Li Tianbao showed a look of hatred on his face, and said: "If the day It’s better. Who wants to lick blood from the edge of a knife? The Liaodong generals are incompetent. Not only can they not defeat the Meng Yuan people, but even the Fusang people bully us at sea. We fishermen often disappear at sea. Many of my brothers of the same race were killed by pirates."
"So I gathered my companions and fought against the pirates. I became a Sea Dragon King, which is quite prestigious. But this is not enough. We are grassroots soldiers after all. It is difficult, very difficult. Please support me, general."
After saying that, Li Tianbao stood up and wanted to kneel down. Wu Nian waved his hand and stopped him, saying, "Wait a minute."
Li Tianbao paused in his movements, raised his head and looked at Wu Nian doubtfully.
"I originally planned to send someone to investigate you. Now I will ask you directly." Wu Nian shook his head and said sincerely: "You know navigation and dare to fight pirates. Do you know how to train soldiers?"
"Serious military training."
"You said it yourself, you are a grassroots soldier. But I don't need a grassroots soldier."
"I don't understand." Li Tianbao's face looked a little ugly, but he still lowered his head and said.
"Then do you know how to arrange troops? How to fight on the shore, and how to fight on the shore?" Wu Nian asked again.
"I don't know." Li Tianbao's face turned ugly again, and he shook his head.
"Then do you understand military law? Do you know how to transport food and grass?" Wu Nian asked many questions in succession. No one from Li Tianbao came up with an answer.
In the end, Li Tianbao's face turned red, he lowered his head in shame, and stopped talking several times.
"Hey." Wu Changzhang sighed.
This is a talent, but the foundation is too poor. The captains under his command, even Tieniu, were from the military. Zhang Jin is even more familiar with military literature.
Tieniu and Liu Wu are pretty good. Being able to mount a horse, hold a spear, and charge into battle, his level should be better than that of the Meng Yuan Thousand Commanders. If he encounters Meng Yuan Wanhu, he has to hide behind the military formation to avoid being beheaded.
Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng didn't even know how to use the weapon, they were just leading troops.
But they all came from the army, fought with him, and gradually gained experience. Recently, I am also learning the art of war and growing up.
Li Tianbao is a completely wild man, a natural talent, with a keen sense of smell and the ability to fight pirates.
But leading troops is really not possible.
There is no need to send people to investigate, Li Tianbao admitted it himself. In this regard, Li Tianbao is very candid.
"Then can you study hard?" Wu Nian raised his head and asked the last question.
"Yes." The almost desperate Li Tianbao's eyes lit up, he raised his head without thinking, clasped his fists and responded loudly.
"Okay. I will appoint you as a Qianhu, and find twenty Baihu, general banners, and small banners who have retired from the battlefield to help you train troops. Find capable people to help you explain the art of war and military law."
"You must also strive for self-improvement. Read more history books every day and learn how famous generals in ancient times led their troops."
"If you do an outstanding job. According to your character, I can promote you to the rank of captain, let you command tens of thousands of troops, and give you my entire sea."
Wu Nian's face showed a look of relief, then he stood up, looked at Li Tianbao, and said solemnly.
"Thank you, General." Li Tianbao was very happy, but he also felt that the burden on his shoulders was extremely heavy. Being a member of Qianhu was much more difficult than he thought.
It’s far from easy to do well.
"Okay. We will discuss this matter later. Now I want to borrow your wisdom, experience, and connections. Do you know Kunihiko Torii? I want to kill him."
Wu Nian nodded, went back to his seat and sat down. When he raised his head, there was a murderous look on his face.
