Fu Song

Chapter 391 Unspoken
Authority is something that is difficult to share with others.

No matter how close people are, they will not make much concessions on this issue.

Within the framework of the federation, Cen Zhong thought that Xiao Cheng was the boss of course, but when he arrived at Guangnan Xidao, Cen Zhong felt that the affairs here should be decided by himself.Even Guangnan West Road needs to serve the federation, but the specific method is its own responsibility and right, and Xiao Cheng should not interfere too much.

The reason why Xiao Cheng's power was allowed to exist in Guangnan Xidao was because he borrowed Xiao Cheng's power when he first started his business.Without the thousand soldiers that Xiao Cheng lent him, Cen Zhong would not be where he is today.

Therefore, in Guangnan Xidao, Xiao Cheng can have a strong influence.

For example, Wei Wu.

But there is a prerequisite, that is, Wei Wu must also obey Cen Zhong at the same time, and under this premise, Cen Zhong will still work hard to support forces to compete with Wei Wu, or compete.

If Wei Wu loses in the future competition, then no one else is to blame.

This is the default rule for both parties.

Cen Zhong will do it aboveboard, and Xiao Cheng will not feel that the other party is crossing the river and tearing down the bridge.

On the overall goal, everyone is consistent, and on specific people and things, there is cooperation, competition, dissatisfaction, and criticism. For a mature politician, this will only be considered a normal state.

Therefore, both Cen Zhong and Xiao Cheng faced such a matter calmly.

Behind the two people, there will be a large group of people who want to eat, get promoted, get rich, and become famous.No matter how good the relationship between the two bosses is, they still have to consider the group of people behind them.

The structure of power has always been a pyramid-like building.

The higher you go, the narrower it is, and the fewer seats there are.

If you have more, I will naturally have less.

If I want to have prestige, be able to convince the crowd, and attract more people to join my sect, I will naturally get more seats to satisfy the desires of my subordinates.

When Wang Qinian was escorted in front of Cen Zhong by two barbarian soldiers, he was wearing nothing but a set of linen clothes.In fact, it was not so much clothes as a big sack with holes drilled so that his head and limbs could rise out of it.There is not even a pair of big pants inside.

Originally, Wang Qinian didn't care about it, he was a prisoner anyway, so what's the point?

It seemed good to be alive.

But he never expected that the reason to bring him out was to see Cen Zhong.

Only then did he realize why he was being held in a vat and brushed up and down until his whole body turned red with a big bristle brush. Only then did he let him go. The smell on them was really unpleasant. very.

To be honest, if he didn't know that these barbarians in Longying Cave didn't have the habit of eating human flesh, he would be a little scared.

But now this appearance also made him feel ashamed.

Anyway, everyone is an official of Song Dynasty!

Although one is a high-ranking official recruiter of the third rank.

One is just a military officer and general of the seventh rank who has just entered the stream.

Wang Qinian only found out in the captive camp after he was captured that they were here to attack and recruit Cen Zhong.

The reason is that on the night before the attack, unfortunately, a considerable part of his battalion suffered from diarrhea.

Among them, Wang Qinian himself was included.

Moreover, because he eats a lot, and he is a battalion general, he gets more bacon than ordinary soldiers, so he pulls harder.

Although being captured for several days, the whole person has been slowly recovering, but looking at his appearance, he also knows that he has indeed suffered a lot in the past two days.

Wang Qinian was not a popular guy in the Qingyuan Army, but Hu Mao hated him quite a lot.Because this guy is quite out of place with other people.

Wang Qinian is from Leizhou, West Dao, Guangnan. The Wang family is well-off and rich. He is a well-known local gentry family. He is not short of money. He became an officer because the imperial court launched a crusade against Jiaozhi fifteen years ago. Wang Qinian was a As a leader of the Xiang army in the local area, they went to Cochin to deliver food. By chance, their Xiang army had a hard fight with the Cochin army.

The Cochin Army, which was difficult even for the Imperial Army to deal with, suffered a great loss from the Leizhouxiang Army led by Wang Qinian.

Wang Qinian also emerged because of this.

Dang even was appointed as a battalion general.

However, this guy was at his peak when he debuted, and in the next ten years, this guy was firmly held in this position and never made any progress.

The person who promoted him was the Taiwei and General Guo Pu who was in charge of the crusade against Jiaozhi at that time.Moreover, in Guo Pu's view, receiving awards for meritorious service is a matter of course on the battlefield. There are too many of them, and I really can't remember them.

But for Wang Qinian, the following days will be difficult.

This guy was incorporated into the Qingyuan Army at the time, but he didn't love money, he didn't love women, he didn't take empty pay, and he didn't accept bribes. In the Qingyuan Army, he was like a lamp shining brightly in the dark night. It doesn't matter if you don't attract attention, and you can imagine how you will be excluded in the army.

But because Guo Pu is a big enough official and has a strong temper, ordinary people still dare not do anything to Wang Qinian. It depends on the owner to beat a dog.Usually when a dog is bullied, the owner may think that the dog is bad, and he hates iron but is lazy to pay attention to such trivial matters, but if you really kill the dog and eat dog meat, that is a different matter.

And Wang Qinian also has a tough temper, he just stood up in the army, and he never bowed his head like other people.

Later, although Guo Pu lost his braids, the Guo family was still quite influential in the Great Song Army, and during these years of getting along, Wang Qinian also had another advantage that was discovered by others.

It is the battalion led by this guy, who is the best at fighting.

Therefore, Wang Qinian became the face of the Qingyuan Army outside.

Whenever there is a need to fight bandits and fight wars, they are the only choice.Of course, Wang Qinian had to be in the back row when he received awards for his meritorious service.

Anyway, when the hardest bone is almost gnawed by them, it's time for them to stop eating.

This time, they were also going to be the first wave to come up to chew hard bones, so when they were distributed before the battle, most of the bacon sent by Longyingdong with seasoning had reached their camp.

After all, if you want a dog to bite someone, you have to throw a few bones at the last minute, right?

As a result, Wang Qinian and others ate the meat, so they had loose bowels and took it away.

After Cen Zhong figured out these causes and consequences, he was angry and funny.

"Recruiting envoys, I really don't know that I came here to attack you." Wang Qinian was forced to kneel on the ground, but still held his head up to defend him. "The Hutong system didn't tell us at all, it only said that it was to suppress bandits, and that several caves here had rebelled."

Cen Zhong smiled: "If you saw my flag face to face that day, would you still launch an attack?"

Wang Qinian fell silent all of a sudden, and finally said after a long while: "Don't dare to lie to the envoy, if I had been there that day, even if I was extremely shocked, I would have attacked you recklessly, because when we saw you, you Naturally, I also saw us, so there is no choice but to retreat. Wang Qinian is not alone, but has a big family. If you are not killed, my whole family may not survive in the aftermath. .”

After a pause, this guy went on to say: "If my subordinates and I were the main attackers that day, we probably would have won!"

Cen Zhong couldn't help laughing: "You really deserve your reputation. Some of your other colleagues were paralyzed with fright in front of me, but kept pleading guilty, saying that they were forced by Hu Mao, but you said that even if you saw me in person , but will attack even harder."

"The last general doesn't want to tell lies!" Wang Qinian said: "Because at that time, stretching out the head was a stab, and retracting the head was also a stab, so I had to give it a go, kill you, and then die without proof, and finally put the blame on these guys , and then destroy them, you can confess to the past, I guess this is also the plan of the higher-ups."

"You're not stupid!" Cen Zhong sneered: "They did plan that way, but they miscalculated my strength. Wang Qinian, follow me in the future. This time you can not only get a blessing in disguise, but also go up one more level. Your family, in Guangnan Xidao, can also follow you to get rich, how about it?"

"Ah?" Wang Qinian was a little confused: "I... about this..."

"Basically, your subordinates didn't suffer too much damage. Afterwards, I can say that it was because you discovered Hu Mao's treacherous scheme, so you stepped in anyway and helped me wipe out the rebels in one fell swoop. In this way, it is naturally meritorious." Not guilty!"

Wang Qinian looked at Cen Zhong cautiously: "Recruiter, why did you choose me?"

Cen Zhong looked at the guy in front of him who sometimes looked very smart, sometimes he was a bit stupid, and said: "First, I naturally know a lot about you, and I think you are different from other generals of the Qingyuan Army. They are quite different, and they can be rescued first. Second, the descendants of the Guo family have a lot of friendship with me, Cen. Let me tell you this, the second son of Guo Taiwei, once worked with me, You are a good friend, since you were promoted by Guo Taiwei, you can be regarded as a little incense."

"Guo Taiwei is a good man!" Wang Qinian sighed, "He is also a handsome man!"

"I don't see you going to the capital to give the Taiwei some souvenirs these years!" Cen Zhong said: "Your family is not short of money, and in the future, every year and festival, you will give more gifts on the birthdays of the main members of the Guo family. "

"The Guo family will take care of me, a small person?" Wang Qinian was a little bit unconvinced.

"Follow me in the future, and you will no longer be a small person!" Cen Zhong sneered: "Now the Guo family is incomparable to what it used to be. With an old department like you giving gifts and money, they would love to! Living in the capital is not easy, and now they don't." Wealthy. If you connect to this line, you will be able to get richer in the future.”

"Next, you will assist Wei Wu and Wei Tong to reorganize the Qingyuan Army." Cen Zhong said: "To speed up, I have to rush to Guizhou to discuss an explanation with Tao Anfu!"

"Then after me?"

"Help General Wei to organize the Qingyuan Army first, and let me see your ability. If you can, you will be in charge of the army in a short time!" Cen Zhong said: "Guangnan West Road, there is more than one Qingyuan Army. Forbidden Army. If not..."

"Of course I can! I will do it!" Wang Qinian jumped up: "Recruitment envoy, as long as you dare to use me, I can assure you that I will never be inferior to that iron-footed general in the future!"

"Let's watch while walking!" Cen Zhong said with a smile: "My little junior brother told me that things are always done, not just said."

Wang Qinian walked out of the house for a few steps, looked back at the closed door, and breathed a sigh of relief. This feeling is like a world of ice and fire!For the first two days, I just felt that the sky was falling.Attacking the envoys of the third rank of Zheng Zheng of the Great Song Dynasty, but also failed, and people were caught. Is this very different from rebellion?Not only would he die, but he might also implicate his family.

And when I just walked out of this room, not only the previous worries disappeared, but also a very bright future waiting for me.

He suddenly realized the loveliness of power.

A word can send a man to heaven.

But one word can send a person to hell.

My previous self was really ignorant, and it is a miracle that I can live till now.

No, it's extremely peaceful, is this time I'm going to develop?
Over the years, my family's support for me has become less and less, because I have made almost no contribution to the family, and my status in the family has also become lower and lower. Even my nephews look at me with embarrassment.

After finishing this mess, go back and see how you can deal with them.

And judging from the recruiter's posture and the meaning behind the words, I'm afraid it's not only his own ability that he values, but also the Wang family itself!The Wang family is said to be big or small in Guangnan Xidao, but in Leizhou, it is a famous and famous family!Recruiters must also need local forces like their own family to support the manor!

Taking a deep breath, he was about to find someone to change into more normal clothes, but saw a one-eyed dragon wearing a black eyepatch staring at him.

"General Liu!" He cupped his hands.

Although he had not seen this person yet, in the prisoner camp, he also heard people who met Liu Yiguo describe this fierce guy.

"You said that if you were the main attacker that day, you would have destroyed my camp and killed the envoy?" Liu Yiguo's tone was full of provocation.

"That's right!" Like a fighting cock, Wang Qinian's hair exploded at Liu Yiguo's tease. He put down his hands, puffed up his chest, and stared at the other party without showing any weakness.

"When you get your body back, let's meet Zhenzhang!" Liu Yiguo clenched his fist and hammered the opponent's chest, not exerting any force, but full of contempt.

"When the time comes, I will make you crawl on the ground!" Wang Qinian reached out and grabbed Liu Yiguo's fist. The two of them exerted strength at the same time, but Wang Qinian staggered. After several days of pulling, his body was really weak, and Wang Qinian felt angry for a while.
