Zhang Liang was so angry that he gritted his back teeth and wished he could cut the superb acting Wang Xuance in front of him in two pieces.
House slave Chang Dece immediately stepped forward and scolded: "How presumptuous! The commander-in-chief is the general of Youjin Wuwei. How can the past rules be imposed on the commander-in-chief? You have ulterior motives and bad intentions. You are simply extremely arrogant!"
"The king worries about his ministers' labor, and the master humiliates them to death." As Zhang Liang's personal soldier and domestic slave, he naturally felt Zhang Liang's embarrassing situation. Wang Xuance was frightened, bowed slightly, and said with an innocent face: "This is what was established before
Military regulations, humble positions must be observed, otherwise military law will not tolerate it! But as the general said, now you are General Youjinwuwei,
It is up to you to decide whether to abolish or change some of the unique military rules. You can make the decision after you take up your duties." After a pause, Wang Xuance smiled again: "To be honest, these military rules are indeed orders.
There are complaints in the army. Although His Majesty and the ministers of the Military Aircraft Department believe that this kind of training method can unite the morale of the army and improve combat effectiveness, the superiors in the army are not satisfied.
However, the subordinates are complaining because they are overworked. If the general can depose him, he will surely win back the morale of the army and everyone will be happy."
Zhang Liang was choked. If he wanted to show his majesty and convince people, he should abolish this military rule as soon as possible and completely suppress the team left by Fang Jun in the past. But he has also led troops, so he naturally knows this.
Practice methods for improvement
Having great combat power is beneficial, especially for an army that has just been organized into an army. The effect is even more obvious.
If you just want to demonstrate and exert pressure and depose such a "good military regulation", wouldn't it be called "narrow-minded" and "abolishing public service for private purposes"?
What would His Majesty think?
What will the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty think? Of course, this can wait for a while, and then make a decision after careful consideration. The problem that needs to be solved now is: Should I enter the camp and sit in the military tent, waiting for the generals to come after they have completed their drills?
Let's meet, or just turn around
Leave and come back tomorrow?
The former option is to sit in the Chinese military tent and wait hard for all the subordinates, and the majesty will be lost. The latter option can avoid this embarrassing situation, but what if the drill continues tomorrow?
You can't come here in the middle of the night to perform your duties, right?
He glanced at Changde.
Changde received the look from the head of the family, and he was a little confused about the meaning of the look... However, the reason why he gained the trust of the head of the house was precisely because of his exquisite mind. After thinking about the current situation for a while, he understood the situation of the head of the house, and naturally he understood.
The family head was in trouble, so when he faced Wang Xuance, he looked sideways at the family head.
, asked: "Will the training continue tomorrow?"
Seeing that the master's expression did not change, he knew that he had asked the right question and breathed a sigh of relief...
Wang Xuance looked surprised and asked confusedly: "I don't know the general's name? Does he hold any position?"
Chang De opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer. He was just a domestic slave. Who said he was a general?
Wang Xuance looked at Zhang Liang again and pointed at Changde: "Please forgive me for my humble eyesight and my inability to recognize this general. General, please give me some advice."
Zhang Liang was a little embarrassed. Even if Wang Xuance didn't know Chang De, he could still guess that he was one of his soldiers. Since I have this question, it means that I, the dignified Youjinwu Guard Chief Shi, am being criticized by this person. Do you think it's appropriate?
?
Soldiers and domestic slaves must be protected. Zhang Liang said calmly: "He is not a general, but a veteran soldier who has followed me for many years."
Wang Xuance asked again: "Are you in the military?"
Generally speaking, there are two types of personal soldiers. One is the "tribe", which is the general's private army, but all of them are in the military. The other is the "personal soldiers", which is composed of the general's family soldiers and domestic slaves.
Not in the military.
Zhang Liang shook his head: "Of course he is not a member of the military." As soon as he said this, he saw Wang Xuance, who had been a little groveling and trying to please, straightened his waist, his face changed, and he stood up with majesty, pointing at Changde and scolding him.
: "You are not in the military, why do you inquire about the military?"
Got the news? Come here, capture these people who are spying on military intelligence, and they will be severely punished!"
The guards who were like little sheep suddenly became energetic, and more than ten of them rushed towards Changde.
Chang De's expression changed greatly, and he quickly reined in his horse and retreated. His companions gathered around him to block him behind him, and they all drew their weapons to fight against the guards' arrest.
Wang Xuance waved his hand and said loudly: "It's true that the enemy is working carefully, and he actually dares to arrest him! Come here, gather the archers and crossbowmen to surround and shoot, life or death!"
"Here!"
Then some guards rushed into the military camp to mobilize the crossbowmen and musketeers...
Zhang Liang looked at the confrontation between his own soldiers and guards, and was confused for a moment. These were his own soldiers. How could Wang Xuance, a handsome and thin young man, dare?!
He shouted sharply on horseback: "Wang Xuance! Who gave you the courage to attack my own soldiers? Do you want to rebel?" Wang Xuance refused to give in: "The military regulations of the Tang Dynasty have long stipulated that those who spy on military intelligence without reason shall
He will be put in prison for review and once verified, he will be executed! General, please keep your eyes open and don't be deceived by such thieves and ignore military regulations to protect your own soldiers.
This is a great sin!"
Zhang Liang was so angry that his hair almost stood up. Are you thinking about me? Do I still have to thank you?
"This is my commander's personal soldier. He has been with me for many years. There is no way it is a secret work of the enemy!"
"These thieves are cunning and cunning. General, you have been deceived! Don't worry if you hand this person over to a lowly position, the lowly position will definitely expose his true face!" Zhang Liang's eyes widened with anger, and fire was about to spurt out of his nostrils. Handing this person over to you? Sanmuxia
, everyone has to be tortured to the point of going crazy, let alone admit that he is an enemy spy, even if he admits his true identity as a commander.
It is not impossible that he is the prince of an enemy country...
The horsewhip pointed at Wang Xuance: "Stop messing around. I want to ask you, how long will this training last?"
Wang Xuance looked respectful and said: "It will take three days to report to the general."
"Okay, I will be here to take up my post in three days. I would like to ask Chang Shi to assemble the officers above the lieutenant colonel level to greet you here! There is one less person. I am only asking you!" Wang Xuance looked embarrassed, rubbed his hands and said, "Ah this
... There is no guarantee for a humble position. As you know, people who eat whole grains will inevitably be affected by diseases. Soldiers train all day long and are often injured. It doesn’t matter whether they are sick or injured.
, everything is minor or serious. If it gets serious and you can't come to greet the general, do you have to blame your humble position? The general is too domineering and unreasonable."
Zhang Liang stopped talking nonsense. This man is cunning, sharp-tongued, and bold. There will be no good results if you continue to entangle him: "Don't talk nonsense. As long as you are absent without a legitimate reason, I will only hold you accountable!"
After saying that, he turned around and slapped the horse on the buttocks with a whip, and walked away with his own soldiers. Wang Xuance stood at the camp gate and looked at the retreating figures of Zhang Liang and his group, smiled disdainfully, and turned around to look.
He expressed concern to the guard who had been wounded on the cheek by the riding crop: "Quickly enter the camp to seek treatment from a doctor, and then go home to recuperate for a few days.
Come back after the injury has healed."
"Thank you, Chang Shi, for your concern."
The guard was very moved. Although he was whipped, everyone stood by his side to protect and care for him, and his heart felt warm. Wang Xuance patted him on the shoulder, looked around, and said in a deep voice: "No matter who is sitting in the coach,
In our position, this army is still the commander-in-chief’s army. What we have to do is to protect the family fortune for the commander-in-chief and wait for him.
Comeback."
"Here!"
A group of guards, as well as the crossbowmen and musketeers who had just arrived, heard the words and agreed in unison. Everyone's eyes were shining brightly, exuding their sincere love and fanatical respect for Fang Jun. Fang Jun led them out of Baidao and expedition to the Western Regions.
, destroyed Xue Yantuo, defeated the Dashi Kingdom, and even traveled thousands of miles to aid Chang'an to thwart the rebel rebellion. He made countless meritorious deeds and made great achievements in battle. Naturally, he won every soldier without reservation.
Because of Fang Jun's love and affection, the whole army obeyed his orders and were willing to go through fire and water under Fang Jun's orders.
In comparison, what is Zhang Liang?
How can he be compared to Fang Jun, a "official bug" who just flattered others and became prosperous by joining the civil service?
Such a person is not worthy of being the general of Youjinwu Guard. No one is willing to obey his orders, let alone be driven by him.
Everyone believes that as long as everyone holds on, Fang Jun will return one day...
*****
It was still dark when Zhang Liang left the city from Jingyao Gate, and he was galloping all the way in high spirits. When he returned to Jingyao Gate, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and the group of people entered the city gate dejected and demoralized.
After entering the city, Zhang Liang did not return home, but directly rode his horse down the long street to Liu Ji's mansion...
Liu Jie had just returned home from the official residence of Zhongshu Provincial Government in Gongcheng. He washed his hands and face, changed his clothes, and sat in the study drinking tea when he received the news that Zhang Liang had asked for an audience. He was a little stunned.
Confused, he asked his servants about the date and confirmed that it was the day when Zhang Liang went to Youjinwu Guard to take up his post. However, for some reason, he did not go to the military camp outside Xuanwu Gate but came to his own house instead?
Not long after, Zhang Liang was taken into the study by his servant. The servant served him fragrant tea, then left and closed the door.
Liu Ji looked at Zhang Liang who drank a cup of tea in one breath, and asked curiously: "Why did the Duke of Yunguo come to me if he didn't go to Youjinwu Guard to take up his post?" Zhang Liang left the city early in the morning and returned to the city, riding his horse.
After traveling for dozens of miles, we were tired and thirsty. Now we drank a cup of tea and breathed a sigh of relief. But after hearing Liu Jie's inquiry, depression and anger suddenly emerged in his heart, and his palms were cruel.
He slapped the coffee table hard, gritted his teeth and said, "Shuzi is going too far!"
He vaguely talked about the experience of going to Ujingo Guard to take up his post...
Liu Jie was stunned and speechless for a long time. He was surprised and said: "You, the majestic duke of the fallen country, the honorable minister of Zhenguan, and the general of Youjin Wuwei, were actually stopped by a mere official at the camp gate, so you were unable to go to your post and returned to the city in embarrassment.
?”
Zhang Liang hid his face in shame, dying of shame and anger: "It's not that I'm incompetent, but that guy is too cunning, and the Youjinwu Guards are united in supporting Fang Jun. As an outsider, I will definitely be ostracized if I rush to take up the post!"
I thought that by taking such an invincible and invincible army under my command, I could achieve the same feats as Fang Jun, but I never thought that Fang Jun's prestige in this army was so high, and Wang Xuance
This Fang Jun’s eagle and dog minions are so difficult to deal with...
I was careless. I was not well prepared, so I suffered such humiliation...
