Chapter 77 Returning to Beijing and accepting the seal
The rewarded Zhao Shu was quickly delivered to Fang Xiaoyu, and he also brought a reward of one million Lanfang coins. Fang Xiaoyu did not ask for these rewards at all, and all gave them to the soldiers who participated in the war, allowing the soldiers who survived the disaster to survive.
Joy thunderously. There are not many places for a division, but Fang Xiaoyu still can't gather enough people. Although this war eliminated a large number of Montes, it also caused a lot of losses to Lan Fang's army. The 20,000 people before the war started now, and only the wounded soldiers were left.
Less than 8,000, and the recently collected defeated soldiers who fled back from Monte, barely enough 10,000 people. Even the Iron Blood Guard reduced its personnel by more than half, and even sacrificed two elves snipers.
However, what made Fang Xiaoyu most happy was that most of the defeated soldiers Suo Luo fell to the last artillery, which made Fang Xiaoyu's artillery number reach more than 1,000, which was far higher than other troops. As long as they were equipped with new artillery. This is absolutely true.
It is a daunting force.
Fang Xiaoyu handed over the task of the reorganized troops to Feng Shichang and three other brigade commanders, and he brought the remaining Iron Blood Guards to follow the eunuchs who came to pass the imperial edict back to the capital. Looking at the heavy losses of the Iron Blood Guards, Fang Xiaoyu had no regrets.
If it weren't for the existence of these Iron Blood Guards, it would be difficult for Ulan City to defend. What's more, the army that has not been trained in war cannot become elite soldiers. Once these warriors who have experienced great warfare will return to the Iron Blood Guard.
It will make the entire force's strength leap.
With the support of these backbones, the Iron Blood Guard can truly be called a powerful team. What made Fang Xiaoyu most happy was that he discovered a talent. Fang Xiaoyu glanced at Fu Mingcheng beside him and said, "This Fu Mingcheng is really a defensive genius, but he is actually
He was able to command calmly at such a disadvantage and almost commanded this defensive battle alone.
Fang Xiaoyu said to Fu Mingcheng: "Mingcheng, this time the fight was really good." Fu Mingcheng smiled slightly and said: "If I had so many elite warriors back then, I believe I could have fought so well. After all, I was still the elite under the young master.
The most important thing.”
Fang Xiaoyu said in surprise: "You were also an officer before becoming a slave?" Fu Mingcheng smiled and said, "Yes, it's just a scapegoat for the defeat of the empire." Fang Xiaoyu said in surprise: "It doesn't matter, I can assure you.
This will never happen to my subordinates. As long as you have strength, you will have corresponding status, and I will never allow my subordinates to have shady transactions."
Fu Mingcheng nodded: "I believe this. In recent years, I have also seen the development of the young master's industries. It is true that everyone has fulfilled their talents and is very honest. With such high work efficiency and vibrant organization
And good appointment promotion and supervision policies, I think we can definitely become stronger soon.”
Fang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "It will be like this in the early stages of entrepreneurship. The important thing is to persevere. I wonder if you are prepared to take on greater responsibilities?" Fu Mingcheng said in surprise: "Young Master, what you mean..." Fang Xiaoyu said, "
The Iron Blood Guard has a size of 20,000 people. I plan to make the Iron Blood Guard an army and form an Iron Blood Army according to the imperial military system. You will serve as the commander of this army."
"Congratulations, Brother Fu." Liu Mingzhao said in surprise. Fu Mingcheng thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I can't accept the appointment of the young master."
"Oh?" Fang Xiaoyu was a little surprised: "Why don't you accept it?" Fu Mingcheng said: "I am only good at defense, which is not enough for an army. The first thing an army should emphasize is attack, and only attack is the most important thing.
Good defense.”
Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "That's true, but I haven't found such talent in the Iron Blood Guard yet. Besides, the biggest task of the Iron Blood Guard is to protect me and my industry. Defense is more important than offense. This is very suitable for you.
You will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will
Fu Mingcheng said: "Actually, I know that at least three people in the Iron Blood Guard are better than me, and Liu Mingzhao is one of them."
"Oh?" Fang Xiaoyu looked at Liu Mingzhao in surprise. Liu Mingzhao said embarrassedly: "I can't do it. I'm only good at attacking. This defense is a weakness, so Brother Fu is the most suitable." Fang Xiaoyu said: "Then let it be, I'm going to do it.
It is planned to pilot the dual commander system in the Iron Blood Army, with two chief and deputy commanders in all positions, so that they can not lose command if one commander is killed. Liu Mingzhao will first serve as the deputy army of the Iron Blood Army.
Senior, I will assist Fu Mingcheng in his work."
Fang Xiaoyu knew that most of these slaves were selected by the East China Tour and Tobull, and officers were inevitably more inclined to Tobull's former old subordinates. Although Fang Xiaoyu absolutely trusted Tobull's character, it was easy to get the absolute power.
If a person becomes deteriorated, he must prevent problems before they happen.
This time he designated the commander of the Iron Blood Army as Fu Mingcheng, who was obviously a branch of the Empire, and there were officers of the Bainuer who restricted Topur. In the future, he would also like to incorporate some subhumans and other factions, as long as he did.
If the control is good, the army can form healthy competition, which can not only greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the army, but also prevent the situation of being too big due to factional internal struggle or the dominance of one's own power.
After deciding the commander of the Iron Blood Army, Fang Xiaoyu instructed Fu Mingcheng and Tobuer to consider the list of officers below and then report it to him. Then Fang Xiaoyu asked Fu Mingcheng and the others to return to Lanting Villa with their own handwritten letters, while he only
He brought Zhang Tong and fifty Iron Blood Guard soldiers to Beijing.
Five kilometers away from the city, Fang Xiaoyu saw a large group of people in front of him. He asked a soldier to ask. The soldiers who came back said that the three marshals were waiting in front of him. Fang Xiaoyu was so scared that he immediately got off his horse and walked over on foot.
Marshal Xia Jun stood first, followed by Fang Rui and Xiahou Feng. Seeing Fang Xiaoyu gradually approaching, Marshal Xia Jun smiled and said, "Xiao Yu, what I did this time is so beautiful, I admire you. Lao Fang has a good grandson.
ah."
Fang Rui smiled and said, "Where are you, don't you have a good grandson-in-law?" Xiahou Feng smiled and said, "The most important thing is that there is another tiger general in the empire." Fang Xiaoyu saluted to the three marshals and said, "How to Three
I was so flattered that all the marshals came out to pick me up.”
Xia Jun said: "The emperor asked your grandfather to pick you up alone. He wanted to shape you into a new imperial god of war, so let the marshal pick you up as a show of honor and favor. We just came here with your grandfather to check it out.
You, by the way, give you a dress."
Xia Jun said as he took the military uniform handed over by Xia Ziqing and said, "Put on this major general's dress. After entering the city, you will go directly to the palace to see the emperor. All the officials are waiting for you in the court."
"So exaggerated?" Fang Xiaoyu quickly took off his brigadier general's uniform and changed into a major general's dress. Fang Rui smiled and said, "Xiaoyu, you have made a big face for our Fang family this time, and all the civil and military officials are waiting.
You met the emperor because the emperor wanted to reward you heavily in the court."
Seeing Xiahou Feng right next to him, Fang Xiaoyu didn't dare to reveal that he knew he was a lord, so he undoubtedly told the Xiahou family that they had planned. Fang Xiaoyu pretended to be strange and said, "Hasn't the emperor's imperial edict been rewarded?"
Xiahou Feng smiled and said, "That's just a reward for the soldiers. You, the great hero, need to be rewarded separately in the court." Fang Xiaoyu said, "In fact, the soldiers are the biggest heroes of this victory." Xiahou Feng smiled and said, "
You don’t have to be humble, you will reach the top this time.”
Fang Xiaoyu changed his clothes and said, "Let's go quickly, don't let the emperor and all the lords wait in a hurry." Xia Jun nodded and stepped onto the war horse with the other two marshals and said, "Xiaoyu, you are the biggest contributor this time.
, You walk in front of you."
Fang Xiaoyu knew very well that this was the result of His Majesty the Emperor's plan to push him out to cover up the failure of the main army in order to maintain stability. With this understanding, Fang Xiaoyu smiled without being pretentious, and he jumped gently onto the ground.
The war horse turned to the Iron Blood Guard soldiers behind and shouted: "Brothers, we are the soldiers who have returned from victory. We have all shown our momentum and we have entered the city."
The soldiers rode on the horse and agreed in unison, and rode on the horse and raised their chests and raised their heads. They put their rifles on their backs, pulled out the sabre they had just equipped with and stood on their chests, and arranged them as a sword ceremony, following Fang Xiaoyu neatly
, lined up in an orderly line and moved forward slowly. Xiahou Feng looked at the soldiers' eyes lit up, and whispered to Xia Jun: "Master Xia, these soldiers are amazing, absolutely elite, I don't know how many of Xiaoyu have such
Soldier."
Xia Jun said: "Do you think such elites can be trained at will? I don't think there are too many Xiaoyu. But there are 3,000 elites like this that can be invincible. I think I can defend Ulan this time
Cheng and the others have made great contributions." Xiahou Feng nodded in agreement.
