After attending the banquet, Shao Xun stayed in the military camp.
The military camp is located on Imperial Street inside Dongyang Gate, not far from Sikong Mansion and very close to the palace city.
Two thousand troops from the He Lun tribe withdrew from Jinyong City and also garrisoned in the military camp. At this point, both the upper and lower armies had arrived, and the area around Sikong Mansion was considered to be strong - and that was indeed the case on the surface.
"Forget it if you don't know how to shoot an arrow. You can't even hold a spear firmly, so what's the use of you? Let's all go."
"You've been cheating and sneaking around all morning. What's the use of you? You, you, and you, let's go."
"I was given a day off, but you didn't come back until the afternoon of the next day. Is the military camp a market? Give me fifty lashes and drive you away."
"He kept spouting strange words all day long, shaking the morale of the army. He was given fifty lashes and driven away."
"You guys can't do it either. Go on your own. Don't let me chase people away."
As the saying goes, once the power is in hand, orders will be carried out.
Mi Huang does not have the official seal of lieutenant, and Shao Xun has not officially become lieutenant Sima, but they have already entered the role, and no one does not think that they are lieutenants and lieutenant Sima.
Shao Xun has been cleaning up unqualified recruits these days.
A large number of smooth-talking Luoyang people were all recruited by Wang Bing, and their number exceeded 300. Shao Xun was not polite at all, and passed the test one by one, and most of them were dismissed.
Only a few dozen people stayed, most of them were hard-working people working hard in the market. After some conversation and a rough understanding of their character, they accepted them.
We still need to recruit more than 200 people.
This matter is actually not difficult.
Mi Huang mentioned that there were more than 30,000 miscellaneous soldiers inside and outside Luoyang City, as well as an unknown number of defeated soldiers. If you carefully selected them, you could even select more than 200 strong men with certain military experience.
Shao Xun agreed, and handed the matter over to Wu Qian, asking him to handle it as soon as possible.
The wrangling between Sima Yue, Sima Ying, and Sima Yong should be almost over. Once the benefits are distributed, foreign troops will enter the city, and the situation will become complicated again.
In addition, the dozens of honest coolies left behind were organized into a separate team.
Shao Xun actually doesn't like honest soldiers very much. He can't beat him with three sticks, and he can't distinguish between left and right. It's really disappointing during training.
But this time he had selfish motives.
In the battle at Tai Chi Hall, the boys performed well, which gave him some ideas.
Why not take the opportunity of recruiting new soldiers and let these seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys join the army and serve as corps commanders, captains, and team leaders?
A full formation of fifty people requires a total of sixteen officers above the corps commander level.
There are a lot of teenagers aged 17 or 18, and some of them really have no talent for learning and can no longer study.
Shao Xun felt that, in that case, he might as well stop reading. Anyway, he already knew a lot of words roughly, so he was no longer illiterate, so he could go down and lead the troops.
Skirmishing and rout are good, but they are somewhat habitual, and a boy of seventeen or eighteen may not be able to suppress them.
Then let them lead honest people.
In the military, skills speak for themselves, and those who do hard work have basically never had any exposure to military training. If you still can't hold yourself back, then you are really not suitable for a career as a martial artist. You will spend your whole life as a corps commander, or something like a commander.
The work of organizing the army was complicated, but Wang Bing seemed to have nothing to do, so Mi Huang took him to sit and drink tea.
"Shao Jun has made many meritorious deeds and the whole family is famous. What do Jiye think?" Mi Huang carefully observed the expression on Wang Bing's face and asked softly.
Wang Bing is not tall, but quite strong.
Xu Shi has been determined to follow the path of a warrior since he was a child. He is not as feminine as a scholar, but rather masculine.
But looking masculine does not mean that the person is really masculine.
Wang Bing lacked a ruthlessness, a ruthlessness that would put him to death and survive.
He had no choice but to do so because of his family circumstances. He had never been in a situation where he had to fight for his life to survive.
Official body, home is ready.
If you take a look at your position, you'll start out as a general.
Are your subordinates disobedient? It's okay. The family will send some subordinates to join the army so that you can control the army.
He never encountered real difficulties.
Therefore, when you encounter those murderous people who kill without blinking an eye, it is easy to be at a loss.
Mi Huang was not a vicious person, and he still spoke very kindly, but Wang Bing's eyes always glanced at Shao Xun, who was training his troops on the battlefield.
He is just a building owner. Even if he becomes Lieutenant Sima, he can only "assist" in training the troops. But look at the way he does his duty, is he "assisting"? He is clearly taking the lead, right?
"When I saw him for the first time, I felt that this person was very murderous. He seemed gentle and polite, but in fact he was fierce and cruel." Wang Bing seemed to be recalling.
At that time, he and He Lun met the township party in front of the arsenal.
The conversation was still very polite, and Shao Xun's etiquette was also in place. After asking about his background, Wang Bing didn't take it to heart anymore.
Unexpectedly, a year later, this man killed the enemy and became famous for a while.
In contrast to him, he was defeated at the hands of Zhang Fang, his troops were scattered, and his entire army was destroyed.
The changes were so great that it was dizzying and difficult to accept for a while.
"Shao Langjun is actually a man who values ​​affection and righteousness." Mi Huang smiled and said, "A drop of kindness will be repaid with a spring of water. You will not suffer any loss."
"That's just nice to say." Wang Bing sneered.
"Jiye, you are just talking angrily." Mi Huang shook his head.
"I said -" Wang Bing raised his head, looked at Mi Huang carefully, suddenly smiled, and said: "You speak for him like this, do you really want to understand? Aren't you afraid that he will turn his back on you in the future?"
Mi Huang nodded: "You can only make a decision after you understand your character."
"Knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts." Wang Bing reminded.
Mi Huang did not answer directly, but said: "I, Mi from Donghai, are good at buying and selling. One of my secrets is to read people, and I won't hesitate once I know them right."
"Everything in the world is unpredictable." Wang Bing said sarcastically: "Who would have thought that Liu Xuande could not stay in Xuzhou any longer and left in embarrassment?"
"It's just a word 'gamble'." Mi Huang said: "What can you do without risk? If you look forward and backward, I, the Mi family, will not be able to do such a big business."
"It seems that you are determined." Wang Bing sighed and then asked: "Do you want to recruit him as your son-in-law? I'm afraid it's not that easy to win over a ruthless person like him. Don't lead a wolf into the house and take you away."
Mi's family wealth, trilogy."
"You don't need to worry about these." Mi Huang said expressionlessly: "You must also know that Shao Xun will be promoted as filial and honest this year, and his status will be different by then. What should be done should be carefully considered."
Wang Bing's face changed slightly and he was speechless.
Mi Huang is his direct superior, and there are many ways to manipulate him, so it is really difficult to openly confront him.
Looking at the bottom, from the superintendent, the team leader to the team leader and even the top soldier, two-thirds of them are Shao Xun's people, almost ignoring him.
In a place like Luoyang, where people are always talking with knives, they don't even have the capital to resist.
If he really wanted to break up, Wang Bing wondered if Shao Xun would strangle him to death with a bow string on a dark and windy night, and then bury him in the wild, where he could not be found.
Alas, how could you associate with such a person?
"I want to arrange a building owner." After a long silence, Wang Bing suddenly said: "I owe a favor and I have to pay it back now. Don't worry, nothing bad will happen."
Mi Huang did not agree directly, but asked: "Is there any more?"
"After Sikong Bingzheng, I want to become a general in the Forbidden Army. You have to speak for me." Wang Bing said again.
"It's easy." Mi Huang agreed immediately, then frowned and said, "The matter of the building owner needs to be discussed in a long-term way. You should bring the person over first to take a look."
Wang Bing snorted and said, "Shao Xun has such a great score."
The placement of private individuals in the army was a normal phenomenon at this time, because many armies had strong tribal traditions, which began in the late Han Dynasty.
The higher-level officers appoint their confidants as lower-level officers, and the lower-level officers then appoint their confidants as lower-level officers. The characteristics of personal dependence are very obvious.
Therefore, if he uses this as an argument, it will not have much effect.
But I felt very aggrieved and found it difficult to turn around for a while.
Mi Huang saw this and took Wang Bing's hand, saying sincerely: "Jiye, don't do this. Look, I have made a lot of achievements in the past six months. Sikong praised me many times and gave me many rewards. Shao Xun
After all, he is still the owner of your tent. He has made meritorious deeds and will benefit from you. Think of it this way,
Don’t you think it’s not that difficult to accept? Besides, the world is so chaotic, and you can’t guarantee that you won’t encounter difficulties or even dangers. At this time, don’t you have to rely on us Donghai people to stick together? After Shao Xun became famous, you, as him
Can you treat me poorly? Think about it carefully."
"Okay, I can't defeat you." Wang Bing patted the table in anger and said, "Anyway, you guys have taken advantage of me. What else can I do? I want to be a left-back general or a right-back general. If I have the opportunity in the future,
, you must speak for me."
"Of course." Mi Huang smiled proudly.
Wang Bing seemed angry, but in fact he had given in.
The thousands of people in the lower army will no longer be obstructed from within, and they can be trained freely.
Mi Huang has great confidence in Shao Xun. As long as he doesn't fight within a year and gives him time, he will definitely be able to organize an army that can go to the battlefield and fight with others.
One year, just one year!
