The wind rises at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 86
Zuo Liangyu could have sent someone here at random, which was also in line with the rules.

But Zuo Liangyu came here in person, which made Chen Wang a little confused about the reason.

And Zuo Liangyu didn't express his intention to come, not only didn't bother Chen Wang with anything.

On the contrary, Zuo Liangyu also helped a lot, explaining to Chen Wang a lot of key points between the military and some unspoken rules between the officialdom.

Many things that Chen Wang didn't understand and doubted were solved.

At the same time, the recruiting in the camp was proceeding in an orderly manner.

Gao Jie also selected two thousand soldiers and led them to station in the west of Chunhua.

For Gao Jie, Zuo Liangyu was obviously not that tolerant, but naturally he didn't embarrass him on the scene.

And after Chen Wang sold Gao Jie the favor of recruiting soldiers, Gao Jie's attitude became more and more respectful.

Every morning, he would personally go to the camp to say hello, and in the evening, he would also lead people to report the recent situation in the army, completely putting him as a subordinate.

To be honest, Chen Wang felt a little uncomfortable, and Chen Wang was also a little worried about some problems.

Now that Gao Jie puts him as his subordinate, will it make He Renlong feel unhappy?

After all, when Gao Jie wanted to surrender, he first hooked up with He Renlong, and the two were from the same hometown.

Chen Wang was a little uncertain about the speed, so he took Zhao Huailiang and Zuo Liangyu to inspect the barracks together.

Let Zhao Huailiang, who is good at communicating, to insinuate, Zuo Liangyu really gave the answer.

"Lao He was trapped in Longzhou back then, and Gao Jie was the leader of the army. At that time, the two had hitched a line."

"However, Lao He promised to let him be President Qian, but I don't know why there was no news later."

Zuo Liangyu glanced at the prisoners sitting or lying in the camp, and said with a smile.

"Li Zicheng besieged Longzhou for two months and was unable to attack for a long time, so he led his troops away."

"It's been a year now, and the relationship between Gao Jie and Lao He is just from the same hometown."

"Now you are Gao Jie's benefactor, Gao Jie is naturally yours, and you don't need to care about Lao He's thoughts."

Chen Wang remembered that when he met Zuo Liangyu in Binzhou, Zuo Liangyu and He Renlong were a little close.

But He Renlong is from Mizhi, Zuo Liangyu is from Shandong, one leads the town soldiers from Yansui, and the other leads the town soldiers from Changping.

They were far apart, and they only knew each other during the campaign, but Zuo Liangyu and He Renlong seemed to be very familiar with each other.

"Lao He is a straightforward person, not as complicated as you think."

Zuo Liangyu saw the doubt in Chen Wang's heart at a glance, and said with a smile.

"Your military merits have been approved in the past few days. In a few days, your new official status and military position will come down. At that time, you will also be the sole commander of a battalion."

Zuo Liangyu restrained his smile, and his face became much more serious.

"I have never doubted Cao Shuai's vision. He let you lead a battalion alone, which proves that you absolutely have this ability."

"This time the Chunhua victory, you also proved yourself."

Zuo Liangyu lowered his voice a little and said solemnly.

"The reason why Madman He and I got acquainted is very simple. When I was surrounded by the Chuang army, he led the troops to respond."

Zuo Liangyu's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice.

"After you lead a battalion alone, you will understand that in many cases, your battalion is fighting alone."

"The friendly troops around you, they don't care about you. They may not follow the plan that was arranged before, but..."

Zuo Liangyu didn't finish his sentence, his face was gloomy and terrifying.

Chen Wang remained silent, he knew what Zuo Liangyu was talking about.

There are indeed countless friendly troops who are immovable like a mountain, and retreat like the wind.

"Anyway, you should keep an eye on it."

"If you can't fight, just withdraw. Don't resist. Although there are military orders like mountains, sometimes you have to go."

Zuo Liangyu's voice was also much lower.

"Now those rogues are running everywhere. Huguang, Henan, and Shaanxi are full of rogues. If the imperial court wants to suppress these rogues, they need soldiers, so they have to rely on us."

"You have soldiers under your command who dare to fight. As long as you don't go too far in many things, the governor's army will reprimand you at most, and they won't really do anything to you."

Chen Wang looked sideways slightly, what Zuo Liangyu said now can be said to be heart-to-heart.

What Zuo Liangyu said now is the consistent principle for his actions in the future.

"You must be more careful when fighting and suppressing. Don't fall into the ambush of the rogues by mistake. After fighting for many years, these rogues are smarter than monkeys."

Zuo Liangyu glanced towards the direction of Dongcheng, where Liu Chenggong was, and then said quietly.

"It doesn't matter if you don't listen to some military orders, it's best to delay for some time to fool them."

"If you really listen to the military order, even if you escape back when the army is defeated, it will be a light crime to go to prison."

The meaning of Zuo Liangyu's words couldn't be more obvious, and Chen Wang naturally knew it well.

The current trend is to emphasize literature over military affairs. The imperial court has been using literature to control military affairs for many years, and the status of military officials is humble.

But now that the army is in turmoil, the actual power of military officers who hold military power is increasing day by day.

The generals of Liao Town are now subtly changing. They find that the military power they hold in their hands seems to be able to bring them a higher status.

The authority is increasing day by day, but the status is still humble. During this period, the gap in my heart has naturally formed.

These military officers who hold military power are beginning to realize something.

The military power they hold is very important, so important that as long as they have a strong army under their hands, whether it is the governor or the court, they will respect their attitude a lot.

Even if he disobeyed orders occasionally, he would not pursue too much responsibility.

Zuo Liangyu is aware of this, and he is constantly testing the bottom line he can reach, and constantly expanding his troops.

Chen Wang's heart was cold, but Ming Ting's way of employing people was chilling.

Unequal rewards and punishments, meritorious deeds are not rewarded, and those who are not punished for their deeds are more likely to enter the river.

A large number of soldiers is used as a reliance, and crimes are only reprimanded.

Obeying the military order and being defeated, the chief officer who formulated the strategy is not half guilty, but the person who obeyed the military order must be held accountable.

If it is a minor crime, he will be sent to prison, and if it is serious, he will be beheaded for public display. How can such an act not be chilling.

"Don't talk about these things. There are so many bad things these days. If you take each one of them into your heart, it will only worry you more."

Zuo Liangyu laughed, making the originally boring atmosphere in the air a little easier.

"I heard from Cao Shuai that you have some experience in military training."

"I saw the four rounds of pawns you practiced, and there are indeed some tricks."

"However, the way I see you recruiting soldiers in the prisoner camp these days is a bit strange."
