Chapter 816 Ten years to grow trees, hundred years to grow people
"Father-in-law...what did you say?"
Hu Wantong seemed to have heard wrongly.
"I said from now on, we are no longer in-laws."
Zheng Yi said calmly: "You happen to be here, so I can take your daughter away by the way."
Hu Wantong was suddenly startled, and then said with difficulty: "Master Zheng, you can't...can't do this?"
He was not a fool, he reacted immediately.
It was obvious that Zheng Yi had kicked him away. The matter concerning Guan's firm was his own fault and had nothing to do with Zheng Yi.
Without the background of the Zheng family, who is he an ordinary businessman?
"No... Master Zheng, you can't do this!"
Hu Wantong was so frightened that his legs became weak.
During this period of time, relying on the Zheng family, he was really powerful, not only Guan's firm, but also many people were offended. If this relationship is no longer there, he will shed his skin even if he doesn't die.
"You have gained a lot through the influence of my Zheng family, you should be satisfied."
Zheng Yi's tone became increasingly cold.
When he first got married to Hu Wantong, it was just to make it easier for him to do some things. Now that he is in trouble, if he gets rid of it in time, there is no psychological burden on him...
"No, Master Zheng, please, don't do this."
Hu Wantong knelt down directly.
But Zheng Yi ignored him and gave the housekeeper a look, and someone immediately pulled him out...
Zheng Yi's face was very serious.
Why didn’t Guan Ning die?
What should I do if I make military exploits one after another?
Xu Lin has been executed. Even if Yang Su has doubts, he will only turn a blind eye. After all, they are both nobles.
But there is another E Cheng, who is the key figure. Why has there been no news about him?
Zheng Yi felt extremely uneasy.
Good news is here again!
This time it was even more shocking than before.
Being behind enemy lines, cutting off enemy supplies, defending Yongcheng, and creating conditions for the main force...
What kind of behavior is this?
It’s simply indescribable!
Without any assistance, he annihilated more than 100,000 enemy troops. The true merit of one person was comparable to that of the entire army.
The situation of the battle has completely reversed, so it seems that defeating the Wei army is not a problem.
Guan Ning, this name is even more dazzling, and his reputation has reached its peak.
Save the country from crisis.
There is no achievement more remarkable than this.
And his reputation is not only in Shangjing, but also in Huaizhou, the main battlefield.
Guan Ning's layout was successful.
Without any supplies and being attacked from both front and rear, the Wei army became increasingly weak and faced great difficulties.
Morale is high and a full-scale counterattack begins!
The time has come to April, the grass is growing and the orioles are flying, everything is revived, but this area is full of chilling atmosphere!
A cavalry force of 5,000 people rushed straight into the enemy army, instantly causing a cry of mourning. During the process, the cavalry remained in formation and did not even make a sound of shouting to fight or kill.
This is an iron cavalry, and it is also a fine cavalry.
After destroying the enemy, they immediately gathered together.
"The enemies here have been eliminated. We can go back and resume our lives with Prince Ning."
Wu Yunxiao gave the order, and they immediately left this place and returned to Yongcheng.
Yongcheng has become a base camp for the Dakang army. This location is so good that the evacuating Wei army cannot avoid it if they want to leave.
"They're back."
On the city gate tower, Guan Wentong looked at the cavalry coming gradually. They had blood stains on their bodies and even meat scraps on them. It was obvious that they had not fought for a long time.
They lined up neatly and remained silent.
"Prince Ning has trained a strong army."
Guan Wentong couldn't help but sigh.
He continued: "After so many years of military experience, I have concluded that the strength of an army can be reflected from its external appearance. I think it can be divided into four levels."
"Which fourth grade?"
Guan Ning asked curiously.
"The fourth class is a mob. They loot everywhere and have no discipline. As long as they receive an organized military attack, they will disperse in a hurry. They are the lowest class."
"Third has a complete military structure and basic military appearance, but its morale is low. It will still collapse when encountering a more powerful army. It is considered second-class. Most armies fall into this category."
He added specifically.
"The second-class army has a mature command system, is effective, is well-equipped, has high morale, is courageous and energetic, and is not afraid of strong enemies. Such an army can be called an elite army."
This classification is very interesting.
Guan Ning asked again: "Then what is the first class like?"
Guan Wentong said in a low voice: "The first class has one more quality than the second class, and that is silence."
"silence?"
"Actually, it's the military spirit."
Guan Wentong said: "Even if such an army comes from different places, speaks different languages, and has different customs, they will all listen to the same person's voice and look in the same direction. No matter what the order is, they will resolutely execute it. This
It’s silence, it’s the military soul!”
"What do you want to say?"
Guan Ning knew that the general's words were not in vain.
"There is only one such army in Dakang, and that is the Zhenbei Army."
Guan Wentong continued: "Although the new army you established has not yet reached the first level, it has already taken shape."
"Prince Ning, before you set out, you were only a general of a thousand men, which means that you can only command a thousand men. However, this new army has a distinct personal imprint. You are called the Guan Family Army, which is not legal in itself.
"
Guan Wentong said: "The order was chaotic during the war, but after the war, I believe many people will not allow you to have such an army. As far as I know, you also recruited a lot of Wei soldiers, which gave others the opportunity to attack
The reason..."
He said so much, the real purpose is here.
"You are definitely not willing to hand over this army, so there is a contradiction."
"Thank you, General Guan, for reminding me. I already have a countermeasure and can legally own this army."
joke.
From the beginning, Guan Ning was built as a private army. How could he hand it over?
"Legally owned?"
Guan Wentong shook his head and said: "This is impossible. After Your Majesty succeeded to the throne, the military control was very strict, especially the private army. Even the vassal king has great restrictions, except of course the Zhenbei Army, which is quite special."
"Do you know about the pre-war treaty?"
"Pre-war treaty?"
Guan Wentong shook his head and said he had never heard of it.
"It's normal that you don't know."
Guan Ning explained: "There is one item in the pre-war treaty specifically for the vassal king. If there is a war and the situation is critical, the vassal king has the responsibility to defend the territory. If there is uncertainty, he can recruit private troops to defend against the enemy. The number of troops is 30,000.
"
"Is there such a regulation?"
Guan Wentong looked surprised.
"certainly."
Guan Ning said: "This regulation is for the purpose of saving the country. Only the vassal king can do it. I am the king of Zhenbei, so why not?"
"So you limit the number of troops to 30,000."
"right."
