Chapter 38
"Let me think about it!"

Who will lead the three battalions is an extremely serious question, Zhu Houzhao did not dare to be careless, each and every name kept flashing through his mind.

"I intend to let British Duke Zhang Mao command the Fifth Army Battalion, and Hu Dakui to command the Three Thousand Battalion. As for the Shenji Battalion, I haven't thought of a suitable candidate yet."

The first-generation commander of the Fifth Army Battalion was Zhang Yu, and the Zhang family of the British Duke was also most familiar with the combat mode of the Fifth Army Battalion, so it was most appropriate for Zhang Mao to be in charge of the Fifth Army Battalion.

Hu Dakui, the descendant of Hu Dahai, the founding general of the Ming Dynasty, was tall and burly, powerful, and extremely brave. Great fit.

Only the commander of the Shenji Battalion is hard to choose. The Shenji Battalion specializes in firearms. The commander must not only be proficient in firearm warfare, but also know how to cooperate with cavalry and infantry. Such people are really hard to find. There is no such person in my impression.

Mu Kun, Duke of the State of Guizhou in the Mu Wang Mansion of Yunnan is a suitable candidate, but the fact that the Mu Wang Mansion is located in Yunnan is very important and cannot be easily transferred.

"Your Majesty, there is one subject who may command the Shenji Battalion."

Wang Yangming hesitated for a while, but decided to recommend someone to Zhu Houzhao. Although Zhu Houzhao didn't like that person's background, his ability was beyond doubt.

"Who?"

Zhu Houzhao became interested.

"Li Cheng!"

Wang Yangming introduced: "This man is the chief general of the Right Army of the Fifth Army Battalion in the Yongle period, and a descendant of Li Bin, Marquis of Fengcheng. young general."

Know the military affairs, master the art of war!Why does it sound so familiar!
Zhu Houzhao's face twitched slightly, as if he had met Li Jinglong, the war god of the Ming Dynasty. Back then, Zhu Yuanzhang also praised Li Jinglong as a man who knew soldiers, but in the end he could only train soldiers but not fight. The battle with Zhu Di became a big joke.

Although from the bottom of his heart he didn't think much of Li Cheng, who has never been famous, but in order to give his confidant Wang Yangming some face, he still pretended to murmur: "It is a noble background, why haven't I heard of it before?" his name."

"Li Cheng is the heir unintentionally left behind by the previous generation of Marquis of Fengcheng when he wandered around the brothels. Although his surname is Li, he was not accepted by the Marquis of Fengcheng, so his reputation is not obvious. The minister also inadvertently left when he went out once. Then I got to know Li Cheng."

Wang Yangming blushed a little and said that he was flirtatious all night, and then he refused to admit it when he lifted his pants. He blushed for those nobles.

It's simply insulting to the gentlemen, and such things have long been common, whether they are nobles, civil servants, or those scholars who claim to be noble, who doesn't like to linger in brothels, and each of them claims to be noble, but in fact one is not a thing compared to the other.

"Fengcheng Marquis Mansion, Xungui, Li Cheng!"

A gleam of light suddenly flashed in front of Zhu Houzhao's eyes. Regardless of whether Li Cheng has real talents or not, he will be a very useful pawn, a pawn used to disintegrate the Xungui Group.

Feng Chenghou has an illegitimate child outside, and what about the other nobles, all of them like to visit brothels, there will be one or two accidents, there is a lot of room for maneuvering!
For an existence like Li Cheng, Zhu Houzhao who is talented needs to be supported, and Zhu Houzhao who is not talented should also be supported. Those who are talented can be cultivated as confidantes, and those who are not talented can be raised as a few pigs. It will not cost a lot of money. The most important thing is them It will be a knife for him to completely destroy the Xungui Group.

He had already endured to the limit with the Xungui Group. For the sake of their ancestors' outstanding contributions to Daming, he did not touch them. He did not ask them to be as loyal as the British government, nor did he ask them to be as loyal as the Mu Palace. The imperial court suppressed one party, and only asked them to be more peaceful, but they couldn't do it, so we can't blame him for being cruel!

For the civil servant group, he is suppressing, for the wealthy gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, he is sending them to Liaodong to farm, and for the Xungui Group, he is going to make a big change.

The bastard turns over and the dove occupies the magpie's nest. It's a good drama!

Dog blood is a little dog blood, but it's very cool, and he also likes to watch it very much.

"Since he is recommended by Aiqing, why not bring him here for me to see and test his abilities. If he is really talented, I will definitely promote him."

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile, the sword that brought down the Xungui Group has been found, and it should be the Fanwang Group next. As for the sword that brought down the Fanwang, who else is more suitable than King Ning who is farming in Liaodong?
After working hard in Liaodong for many years, King Ning must have learned to be obedient!
"Sir, obey the order!"

Next, Wang Yangming took Zhu Houzhao around the three major battalions. Only the three major battalions with less than 3000 people were left empty. There is really nothing to see.

After a round of inspection, Zhu Houzhao was even more disappointed and didn't want to watch it any longer. He asked Wang Yangming to reorganize the three major battalions as soon as possible. 5000 people, and then returned to the palace.

After returning to the palace, Zhu Houzhao immediately asked Liu Jin to bring Hu Dakui to see him.

"The last general Hu Dakui sees His Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live."

Tall and burly, with an extremely fierce face, Hu Dakui, who looked like a vicious tiger, paid homage to Zhu Houzhao.

"Okay, get up, you don't think it's troublesome, I think it's unnecessary!"

Zhu Houzhao scolded with a smile, he likes this titan he dug out by himself very much.

Wang Yangming is "my Kong Ming" to him, and Hu Dakui is "my tiger waiter" to him. He is brave, tough, and loyal. Who doesn't like such a general.

As much as Cao Mengde likes the tiger queen Xu Chu, Zhu Houzhao likes Hu Dakui as much.

"hey-hey."

Hu Dakui laughed twice, stood up from the ground, seeing that he was wearing a military uniform with a treasured sword on his waist, he really looked a bit like a tiger of the Three Kingdoms.

"Do you know why I called you here?"

Zhu Houzhao said in a pretentious gesture.

"do not know."

Hu Dakui blurted out directly.

"You are now the leader of the Jinwu Guard, and I intend to transfer you to take charge of the Three Thousand Battalion, what do you think!"

Zhu Houzhao gave Hu Dakui enough face, and he had two choices. One was to stay in the Jinwu Guard and guard the palace for him, and the other was to take charge of the [-] battalion. In the future, he would have the opportunity to make contributions in the battlefield.

"In the end, the three thousand battalion will be chosen."

Hu Dakui replied without thinking, that a hero like him should go to the battlefield to make meritorious deeds. As one of the emperor's guards, the Jinwu Guard is well paid, but it is not what he pursues.

"Very well, I look forward to the day when you open up the territory for me."

Zhu Houzhao patted Hu Dakui on the shoulder in relief, and said: "The three major battalions have been rotten all these years. After you go, give me a hard drill. I don't care what you do. I only want one that can win all battles." Cavalry, if someone refuses to follow, you can cut it first and play later, and I will bear all the consequences for you."
