Liangshan is said to have one hundred and eight heroes, each with special skills.
But in Wang Jing's view, most of these 108 heroes were roosters and dog robbers, who blocked roads and robbed people.
There are people who make human-meat buns, there are murderers who eat human hearts and livers and kill whole families at every turn, there are petty officials who eat naka, there are executioners who specialize in beheadings, police officers who escort prisoners, and rural tycoons who occupy the local area...
All kinds, all-encompassing.
There are only a dozen generals who can truly stand firm on a battlefield with more than 100,000 people. And most of these people can only serve as fighting generals and fierce generals who charge into battle.
The only one who can command hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in battle is Song Jiang, who has a kind face and a dark heart, and is known as the timely rain!
Regardless of the fact that Song Jiang was born as a minor official, he killed most of his brothers for Zhao'an and for his dream of becoming a loyal minister and filial son and serving the imperial court, which is very disgraceful.
But in Water Margin, Song Jiang led his troops to conquer the east and west, went south to attack Fang La, and even went north to fight against the Liao Kingdom, with Song Jiang serving as the chief general.
Don't say that he relied on Wu Yong's cleverness to lead a large army on the battlefield. It was absolutely impossible to rely solely on little cleverness.
Just because Song Jiang led troops to attack Fang La, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing, he can be regarded as a famous general.
Except Song Jiang.
The only people in Liangshan who can be called generals and fierce generals are Lu Junyi, Guan Sheng, Hu Yanzhuo, Lin Chong and other five tiger generals, as well as a few people such as Hua Rong.
Lu Junyi is known as the best in the world with guns and sticks, but he is good at charging into battle, but has flaws in commanding troops.
Among the leaders in Liangshan, Lin Chong was the only one who could charge into battle and command troops. He was cautious in character and had the potential to become a general.
Of course, Lin Chong's repressive and forbearing character is a bit off-putting.
But look at it another way.
When Lin Chong became a general under his command, what monarch wouldn't like this kind of general who would be honest, diligent and loyal as long as he was not forced into desperation?
Oh, Zhao Ji doesn't like it... But in the world of China, this Taoist emperor either died early or was directly whipped to death by Zhao Kuangyin.
It is impossible to continue to enjoy the glory and wealth.
"Lin Chong...he is a good person. Now the army is being reorganized. He can be assigned to guard the pro-army and train with the elite recruited to the pro-army. If he performs well in the reorganization, he can be directly appointed as deputy Qianhu..."
"Liu Tang was incorporated into the infantry army and served as deputy 100 households! The three Ruan brothers were incorporated into the navy and were temporarily under Li Jun's command!"
Wang Jing thought about it and gave the instruction directly.
Gao Ying wrote down all these instructions.
With the continuous expansion of the Huai Army, the number of soldiers has expanded to more than one million, and it will even expand to 1.5 million when it goes south in the future, so that it can have sufficient strength to support it.
With such a large number of troops, it is definitely not enough to be supported by officers who have been promoted for meritorious service. There was an extreme shortage of officers, especially generals.
Therefore, the previous rigid rule that only meritorious service was required for promotion, there have been some changes at this time.
The Huai Army attaches great importance to military merit, and the rule that no one can be promoted without military merit remains unchanged. However, a special opportunity is given to famous generals and generals who have just defected.
That is, during the reorganization and expansion of the army, the trained recruits can be temporarily handed over to their command and become deputy 100 households or deputy 1000 households. After making meritorious service, they can immediately become full-time officers and become 100 households or 1000 households.
Only then can they truly enter the Huai Army system, and they will continue to be promoted based on merit in the future.
Lin Chong and Liu Tang were easily placed.
The other three Ruan brothers were extremely talented in both water-based skills and water-fighting. Wang Jing valued them almost as much as Lin Chong.
In the future, when crossing the Yangtze River and going south, the navy will be very important.
There are many water systems in the Huai Army and the river network is densely covered. The importance of the water army is self-evident. However, within the Huai Army, there are very few talents who can command the water army.
At first Wang Jing even asked Fu Youde, who was good at cavalry, to command the navy.
At this time, the naval generals were only supported by Lin Renzhao, who had grown up, and Li Jun, whose potential had evolved.
Three more talents like Ruan Sanxiong can give the Navy more strength.
…
When Wang Jing and Gao Ying were handling government affairs memorials.
A county under the jurisdiction of Yangzhou Prefecture.
A burly man with a beard and deep eyes led the horse, with a sword hanging on his waist, and ran towards the city gate unhurriedly.
This man's eyes were like lightning, containing extremely powerful power. With a glance, one could feel a powerful and domineering aura.
"Wanling County!"
The majestic man looked up at the name carved on the city gate, then led the horse and walked into the city under the watchful eyes of the gate guards. After he entered the city, one of the city gate guards immediately went to report to his superiors...
His aura was so strong that he was not an ordinary person at first glance, so he naturally attracted the attention of the city gate guards.
If this person causes trouble in the city, the city gate guards will be implicated no matter what.
The majestic man who entered the city had keen senses and was naturally aware of this, but he obviously didn't care.
Soon, he came to the streets of the city.
Wanling County was originally named Wanshou County, but the name was the same as Wanshou County in Donghu Prefecture, so it was changed to Wanling. This place is very close to Yangzhou City, and there are many north and south merchants in the city.
Many of the people also had rosy complexions. Although their clothes were ordinary, they were neatly dressed, and there was a sense of energy filling them.
The attire of the majestic man was very similar to that of some people who crossed the river to escape the war. In other words, his extraordinary bearing attracted the attention of many people on the street.
The man observed for a while and then walked to a trading house.
There are shops, medicine shops, pawn shops, restaurants... all kinds of shops in the county are popping up in endlessly, and there are many pavilions, making it very prosperous.
"This King Huai's method of governing the county is extraordinary!"
The mighty man sighed slightly and sold the horse to the trading house. When he came out of the trading house, he had a stack of food stamps in his hand.
I obviously lost some money by exchanging the horses for food stamps.
But the man didn't care. He quickly came to the inn not far away and gave the waiter a ticket.
"Waiter, please open a guest room for me first, and then bring me hot water and a set of clothes!"
"Don't worry, sir, I'll do it now!"
The waiter put away the ticket with a smile on his face.
There are many people in this inn, many of whom are traveling traders, accompanied by several fierce-looking guards carrying swords.
The Huai army, like previous dynasties, only banned bows, crossbows and armor, but not guns, sticks and swords.
After all, in the wilderness of the Chinese world, if you don't have a weapon to protect yourself, you will encounter misfortune when you encounter wild beasts and thieves.
Most of these guards are first- and second-level warriors who have practiced fist, foot, gun and stick skills and rudimentary cultivation techniques, and they are extremely vigilant.
When the mighty man entered the inn, the eyes of these people fell on him instantly like the eyes of eagles.
The man ignored the looks from outsiders.
Follow the waiter directly into the guest room, take a shower and change clothes. Then he went outside and ordered a meal of wine and meat.
The merchant in the inn was talking in a low voice.
The topic they discussed was related to the war between several princes south of the Yangtze River, and there was a lot of useful information in their words.
Obviously, the powerful man entered the inn with the intention of collecting useful things from the discussions of these merchants.
At this time.
The majestic man suddenly felt a powerful aura no less powerful than his own emerging from the distance.
His expression changed slightly and he looked around.
On the street in the distance, I saw a man with the same muscular figure and explosive breath, like a tiger and leopard.
Both sides discovered each other's energy at the same time, looked at each other, and recognized each other's identity.
"Long live Shi...it's you!"
"He Ruobi!"
