"Who do you want to second? It seems that these two people are quite valuable." Du Lisi asked.
"I want to second Hua Yao and Wu Sen." Zhang Tianhe said.
"Oh? It's the two of them? Let me ask, as long as they are willing, what else can't be said between us brothers?" Du Lisi thought to himself that Zhang Tianhe would really find an opportunity to reach out, but he was obviously unwilling to do so. It was not easy to refuse in person. After all, Zhang Tianhe had saved his life two days ago, so he shouted, "Hua Yao, Wu Sen, you two come here."
"Young Master, please give me your instructions." The two came over, and they were still used to calling Du Lisi this way.
"Commander Zhang wants to second you two to serve under his command, are you willing?" Du Lisi asked.
He originally thought that these two people had been with him for many years and had a certain relationship, so they would not leave him. As long as they said they were unwilling, Zhang Tianhe could not blame them, and then the matter would be over.
Unexpectedly, he was wrong.
"I'm willing." Hua Yao and Wu Sen said at the same time.
Du Lisi almost fell off his horse with one sentence. He shook his body three times, shook himself three times, braced himself, and sat firmly. However, he could not go back on what he had said, so he had to say: "Since In this way, from now on, you two will be under Commander Zhang's command, and you don't need to ask me for advice if you need anything."
"Yes, the young master."
After the two men finished speaking, they stood happily behind Zhang Tianhe.
It is said that a thousand armies are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. These two are both rare tiger generals.
Hua Yao was both a sharp archer and a sharpshooter. He could hit a hundred hits with every shot. In a battle, one person was worth ten or a hundred. Wu Sen was an expert in team combat.
Zhang Tianhe was naturally very happy and held their hands tightly.
When he arrived at the Pingquan Mansion Office, Zhang Xiluan was still beating gongs and drums, setting off firecrackers, and greeted Du Lisi with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened before.
Du Lisi was the infantry battalion commander and deputy commander of the third battalion, organized under Zhang Tianhe.
Needless to say, Zhang Xiluan arranged barracks and accommodation for them, issued military uniforms, etc.
Governor's Palace.
Zhang Xiluan went to the Governor's Mansion to meet with the Governor Zhao Erxun.
Zhao Erxun hosted a banquet in honor of Zhang Xiluan, and there were only two of them at the table.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
"Master Zhang, you look good." Zhao Erxun said.
"Mr. Governor, I'm in pretty good health." Zhang Xiluan stood up and said.
"Master Zhang, sit down and talk. There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be so polite. Besides, you and Lao Yuan are brothers. You are serving in Pingyuan Mansion. It is just a transition. Who doesn't know that you are going to get on the horse?" You can conquer the world, and you can also stabilize the four directions even if you get off your horse. Maybe one day, with a transfer order, you will be transferred to be the governor somewhere, who knows." Zhao Erxun said with a smile.
"The Governor is joking, I am just wasting my reputation." Zhang Xiluan sat down again and said.
"How's it going? Did Du Lisi from Heiyun Village take care of it?" Zhao Erxun asked.
"Oh, it's all my fault for hiring people improperly. I didn't expect that the leader of the Ax Gang, Wang Yaqiao, who is known as the 'number one killer' and has never failed, would also fail this time." Zhang Xiluan said with a long sigh.
"People make mistakes, horses make mistakes, it doesn't matter."
"But, if this happens, wouldn't it mean that the lie becomes real and that boy Du Lisi is really recruited?" Zhang Xiluan said.
"Since Zhang Tianhe can recruit people, why not add another Du Lisi? That's good. At least you won't have a popular beard in Pingquan area from now on. This will also solve a problem for you and me." Zhao Er Xun said.
"Mr. Governor, we still underestimated these beards. I didn't expect that Zhang Tianhe was so powerful. He actually defeated more with less. He took such a big red horse in one pot and killed Ren Zhanbiao. Zhang Tianhe was the only one. , it is already difficult enough to deal with, but now there is Du Lisi, and they are brothers and sisters, so they are even more difficult to mess with. These beards are really difficult to control. If this continues, I, the prefect, will do the same. It’s not long.” Zhang Xiluan said.
When Zhao Erxun heard this, he laughed and said: "People say that you, 'Kuaima Zhang', are talented in the world. Why can't you deal with a few beards? In any case, they are now officers and soldiers of the imperial court. They are still Do you dare to do anything to you?"
"Based on the current situation, they may be suspicious, and they probably won't fall out. But what should we do next? Should we just let these bearded men do whatever they want?" Zhang Xiluan said worriedly. explain.
"As the saying goes, the devil is as high as one foot and the Tao is as high as ten feet. Do you still remember how the Song Dynasty court treated Song Jiang and others?"
"Song Jiang?"
"Exactly, after the Song Jiang court recruited Song Jiang, they promoted them to officials and nobles, and then sent them to fight Fangla. In the end, most of the 108 heroes on Liangshan died on the battlefield of Fangla. In the end, Wu Song broke his arm and captured Fang La, which was considered a tragic victory, so we might as well learn from Taiwei Gao Qiu." Zhao Erxun said.
"What do you mean, Lord Governor?"
"Zhang Tianhe originally had three battalions of troops. Now that Du Lisi has also recruited troops, he already has four battalions of troops. I think it is better to transfer another battalion to Zhang Tianhe and he can recruit them. Heiyunzhai has meritorious service. I will issue a letter of appointment and appoint Zhang Tianhe as the commander of the fifth battalion and Du Lisi as the deputy commander of the fifth battalion. I order them to set off immediately to attack the Mongolian bandits after receiving the order. This time they must kill the Mongolian bandits. Complete annihilation." Zhao Erxun said.
"Mr. Governor, the Mongolian bandits number at least tens of thousands of men, and Zhang Tianhe and others only have five battalions of troops. If you ask them to fight against the Mongolian bandits, wouldn't it be like hitting a stone with an egg?" Zhang Xiluan asked, "Besides, the Mongolian bandits have always been residents. They have no fixed location, they come and go without a trace, it is easy for them to find us, but it is even more difficult for us to find them."
When Zhao Erxun heard this, he laughed and said: "If it were easy, then I would not let them fight. It is because it is difficult to fight that I asked them to fight. If Zhang Tianhe and Du Lisi dare to disobey, Then, we can punish them for this reason; if they attack the Mongolian bandits, they will have a narrow escape from death. When they and the Mongolian bandits are both injured, we will not be able to deal with them however we want. Really? These people with beards are still a nuisance after all, so it’s better to get rid of them. Previously, I only recruited them for the sake of old friends."
"I see, your master's move of borrowing a knife to kill someone is really clever." After hearing this, Zhang Xiluan suddenly realized, and his worries turned into joy.
"As long as you know this and I know it, don't make it public. Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to explain it to my old friend when the time comes." Zhao Erxun said.
"I understand, Mr. Zhao, I will toast you three more times," Zhang Xiluan said.
