Jingkou, Beifu Army Camp.
Since the Guangling camp was breached, this has become the location of the new Beifu Army headquarters. In Jiangcheng Township, a large military camp with a radius of more than ten miles was born, with 20,000 elite soldiers divided into battalions and a school grounds. Above, the shouts of killing shook the heaven and the earth. Even in Jiankang City, the sound of war drums and horns here could be heard. Since the army successfully returned from Wudi last month, the people within a hundred miles of We are the company that blows the horn every day in our dreams. Oh no, it's not a dream. Every day as soon as you open your eyes, you can see this camp!
In the center of the camp, at the main camp of the Chinese army, a commander's flag with the character "Liu" fluttering in the wind. In the commander's tent, most of the senior generals above the general level of each army were present. Since Liu Laozhi was promoted to the general of Zhenbei, he has taken charge of the army. After the Beifu Army, the only people who can attend such high-level military meetings of the Beifu Army are the soldiers who join the army and the chief generals of each army. Those who are not generals or above cannot attend. The last time Liu Yu stood in such a meeting, he was still joining the army as a soldier. But now, he was openly and openly serving as the commander of an army, standing opposite Liu Jingxuan, who was also General Ning Shan.
The first person on the left under Liu Laozhi's tent was none other than the deputy commander of the Beifu Army, General Zuo, and the prefect of Wuxing, Gao Su. He also had a spring breeze on his face, pressed the hilt of his sword, and said with a smile: "This time we are in the Sanwu inspection area, but There was no shortage of work, bandits and bandits from all over the country, and the remnants of demon thieves from Tianshi Dao emerged in endlessly. Fortunately, thanks to the great blessings of the imperial court and the good command of the commander, they were able to wipe out all the bandits one by one and escort the counties from all over the country. Shou took office. However, Gao Mou was not talented and was also awarded the post of Wuxing Prefect. This is largely due to the great help of the generals. I would like to thank you all."
Gao Su said, smiled and bowed his head, which is the salute performed by scholars and disciples of aristocratic families when they meet. It was so unnatural to see the heavily armed Qiu Ba in the military tent. When most people want to return a salute, they instinctively want to use military salutes, but they realize something is wrong halfway through the salute, and instead use these bowing salutes or cross-hand salutes in return. However, because they have never practiced it, they make it nondescript and look particularly ridiculous. .
Liu Laozhi smiled, stroked his beard, and nodded with satisfaction: "General Gao has worked hard for many years and has made great achievements. He has actively traveled between the court and our army, and has secured a good future for all generals. This time is also a good start. The post of governor of Sanwu Land has always been held by the descendants of the aristocratic families who founded the Jin Dynasty. However, this time it was awarded to General Gao in an uncharacteristic manner. This shows that as long as you work hard and serve the court, the future prosperity and wealth will be as good as yours. It’s limitless, and it’s not even limited to our military.”
There was a sound of flattery in the tent. Liu Jingxuan raised his lips in disdain. Looking at Liu Yu who looked calm as usual, he raised his eyebrows slightly and made a face. General Ningyuan Tan Pingzhi and General Guangwu were beside him. He Wuji, Zhenbei Zhongbing soldier Liu Yi, Jianwei general Zhuge Changmin and others all smiled knowingly.
Gao Su looked past the veterans standing in front, towards Liu Yu, and grinned: "By the way, General Jianwu, I was busy pacifying the demon thieves last time, so I didn't have time to thank you. If it hadn't been for your battle in Yuzhou After destroying the demon thief, I'm afraid that my incompetent Yazhi would have died in the enemy camp long ago."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Deputy Commander Gao is being too modest. Yazhi is a life and death brother who we have grown up playing together, joining the army, and killing enemies together. It is our duty to save him. Why should we thank you? Besides, what is that for? The country is seeking thieves, but it is a pity that the three major thieves were not eliminated at the same time. Let them escape, and I am afraid they will leave troubles in the future. By the way, seniors, it is better to call me a slave, so that you can call me a general. Listen. I have to get used to it. In front of you, I will always be just Liu Jinnu."
Liu Laozhi said with a smile: "Jinnu, last time I took it upon myself to share part of your military merits with Yazhi, and reported to the court that he had done meritorious service, escaped from the enemy camp and counterattacked the enemy army, and captured the demon thief general Zhang Meng alive. Killing thousands of prisoners can be said to have deprived Tieniu Xiang Jing of his contribution, you won’t blame me."
Liu Yu smiled and said: "Tieniu didn't take this matter seriously. Yazhi was careless last time and fell into the trap of the demon thief. He was defeated and captured. This is the family scandal of our Beifu Army. Naturally, we have to solve it internally. Fortunately, in the end, we defeated the demon thief and rescued Yazhi, and also concealed the fact that our Beifu Army lost the main camp of Guangling. Anyway, Yazhi found a good wife for Tieniu, and Tieniu is now serving as his groom's official at home. Hey, General, Prime Minister Guangling, I don’t like him at all."
There was a burst of laughter in the tent. Liu Laozhi smiled and said to Gao Su, Liu Xi, Liu Gui, Zhu Qianzhi and other senior generals: "Did you see that young men like Jinu have become generals in the blink of an eye? These brothers The relationship between us is even better than it was back then."
Liu Xi smiled slightly: "Yes, the future is formidable. Maybe, in two years, we really have to take off this military uniform and go home to raise our grandchildren. Jinu, when the time comes, the Beifu Army will be handed over to you, and Ah Long live them."
Liu Laozhi's expression changed slightly and he started to laugh: "Ah Shou, did you hear that? You have to work harder in the future and learn more from the slaves. Not only do you have to learn how to fight, but you also have to learn how to manage the people. A reward will be given after the war, do you understand?"
Liu Jingxuan grinned: "I can just follow the slaves to fight. As for the political affairs, Fatty Liu, Xu Xianzhi and the others don't need us military men to manage them."
Liu Laozhi's face darkened and he said coldly: "That's nonsense. I have said it just now. This time, Vice Admiral Gao became the governor of Wuxing County, and Yazhi was also promoted to the Prime Minister of Guangling due to his merit. From now on, we will The generals of the Beifu Army may become generals or prime ministers, become local governors, or head of state affairs. You don’t have any sense of governing the country now. Do you want to stay in this army for the rest of your life? Now all of you are With the title of general, you can open a mansion and recruit staff, and those children of aristocratic families who have lost their manors and fields will only have the option of joining the army and making meritorious deeds. I heard that Yu Yue went directly to Sima Shangzhi's army. You guys If we move any slower, I'm afraid there won't be many people with real talent left to join in the future, and they'll just bring some embroidered pillows and big straw bags, and I'll have to offer them to a Bodhisattva and make you poor!"
Liu Yi said respectfully: "The commander-in-chief said it well. We should take this as a warning. I just have something to say."
Liu Laozhi nodded: "Xile, if you have anything to say, just say it. We are all our own people here."
Liu Yi raised his head and said calmly: "Commander, this time you helped Prince Kuaiji, and you severely offended those wealthy families in Wu. You almost took away 80% of their land. This is really true." Okay?"
