Chapter 572
But within the time of drumming, the soldiers on the school field gathered around, standing neatly in a row.Although these generals are quite dissatisfied with Li Jing's replacement of Li Xianzhong, the discipline of the army has been integrated into their bones and has not changed at all.

Li Jing was quite satisfied in his heart, and he was full of praise for this army, but on the surface he didn't show any praise at all.

The first row under the stage was the lieutenant generals, all of them looked at Li Jing with sudden expressions.Li Jing also looked at the soldiers in the audience without saying a word.After a long time, finally a school lieutenant stood up, looked at Li Jing and cupped his hands and said: "General Li, the original Xianzhong General was seriously ill, and His Majesty chose you to replace him. It is a taboo for military strategists to change generals just before the battle, but Your Majesty still allows you to come forward." Come to command the army, although we are willing to obey His Majesty's appointment, we do not want to cause trouble at this juncture. But if you can succeed General Li Xianzhong, you must have a plan on how to rescue Qingzhou, so it is better to speak out to calm the morale of the army."

This captain is just a young man, about seven feet tall, but he is also handsome and talented.

In Li Jing's heart, he secretly praised the general knowledge of this school, and suppressed his dissatisfaction with himself for the sake of the overall situation, which is really good.Li Jing had a love for talents in his heart, so he couldn't help asking: "What's your name?"

"The last name is Su and the name is Lie and the name is fixed!" The school captain replied with his hands clasped.

Su Dingfang was a great general of the Tang Dynasty, who destroyed the Three Kingdoms and captured the Three Lords. Like Zhang Shigui, he was also blacked out by the Romance.Su Dingfang used to be Li Jing's subordinate in history, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was Li Jing's student.However, he didn't come in randomly, summoned out, but was brought into the world by Li Jing. He was still a young man at this time, and his various abilities were quite ordinary.

Li Jing secretly kept Su Dingfang's name in his heart, nodded and said: "Your Majesty asked me to replace General Li Xianzhong. He has his own opinion. If you are not convinced, you can ask His Majesty. As for how to rescue Qingzhou, the method to solve Qingzhou's crisis will be It is indeed a well-thought-out plan, but this is a secret, and there will be no comment!"

After hearing this, Su Dingfang cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty has his own opinion. We believe in Your Majesty. Since the general already has a way to understand the danger of Qingzhou in his heart, this is a secret, and the last general will not ask."

Su Dingfang was about to retreat as he said that, Li Jing said with a look: "Wait a minute!"

"I don't know what orders the general has?" Su Dingfang turned around and asked, clasping his hands.

"This general is here for the first time, and you asked me about such a confidential matter in front of everyone, aren't you afraid that this general's plan will be leaked? What are your intentions?"

Su Dingfang's complexion changed, and he quickly bowed down and bowed down: "I know my mistake, the last general is only worried about the instability of the army, so I have no other thoughts when I ask this question, please don't blame the general."

"Hmph, you asked about important military matters without authorization. This is a felony, and the crime should be executed. However, I thought that you were an unintentional mistake, so I will give you a lighter punishment, and you will be punished with a stick of thirty! Someone, pull me down for execution!" Li Jinghao He was merciless, and even wanted to beat the officer as soon as he took office.

The general on one side hurriedly handed over his hand to intercede: "General, please calm down, Captain Su is also concerned about the safety of Qingzhou, please forgive me!"

"This is a military law, and you will be treated as the same crime if you plead for mercy!" Li Jing looked at the generals with cold eyes, showing no mercy.

Su Dingfang knew that Li Jing was one of the three fires for the new official, and the first fire was burned on his own head. Knowing that he would have to suffer this crime, he pushed aside the pleading general in front of him and said in a deep voice: "There is no need to beg for mercy. Asking the military plane, almost leaking the military situation, willing to be a military law. It’s just that General Li said that there is a plan to rescue Qingzhou, please act as soon as possible. I, Taiyuan soldiers, have never been afraid of war. You don’t want to lose the reputation of a loyal general. It’s best to call me Win this battle!"

However, Li Jing was full of academic anger, and said displeasedly: "This is the general's business, and it's not your turn to intervene. You can just train every day. After a while, I will lead you to make meritorious deeds." !"

This is how generals of aristocratic families lead their soldiers. When Li Jing did this, many soldiers guessed that Li Jing was the son of a certain family, and he rose to power by virtue of his power.On Li Jing's first day in office, he gave Su Dingfang thirty sticks and used his prestige severely. This made all the generals and soldiers complain.

On the second day, Li Jing was lying on his side in the camp tent. One general walked into the tent with a stack of books and called Li Jing, "General, Su Dingfang has something to ask! General?...General?"

Su Dingfang yelled several times before Li Jing sat up lazily, stretched his waist and said in displeasure, "Why do you disturb people's dreams?"

"General, on the second day after you took office, the generals and schools didn't know each other. I brought the rosters of each battalion and various affairs in the army for you to deal with! In addition, the war is approaching, and our soldiers are training every day. You should also go out to supervise Supervisor, stabilize morale?" Su Dingfang put the booklet on the table and suggested with cupped hands.

"Huh? As the saying goes, Xiao Gui, Cao Sui, don't you all do well when I'm not around? These cumbersome things, how did you solve them before? Why bother me?" Li Jing rubbed his forehead with his left hand and waved Waving his right hand, he said impatiently.

Su Dingfang was neither humble nor overbearing, and cupped his hands and said: "I am the master in charge of military affairs. I will be able to deal with some small matters, but the general should be involved in major matters. What's more, the war is approaching, and the general needs to stabilize the morale of the army. When going out in the future, the army does not know the general. The general does not know the soldiers, and the general has no prestige, how can he lead the troops to fight?"

"This general has his own ideas, so you put your things down. I heard that there is a wine shop in Jinyang City, which supplies all places in Taiyuan. You can find good wine for this general!"

Su Dingfang's complexion changed: "General, General Li Xianzhong left an instruction that drinking alcohol is not allowed in the army, and those who disobey the order will be executed! General, please don't violate military laws."

"Did the general say that I drank the wine? I know it well, you just go and get it!" Li Jing slapped the table and said angrily.

"Since the general has a good number, I won't say much!" Su Dingfang suppressed the anger in his heart, and wanted to throw his hands out.Li Jing was flipping through the books while sitting in front of the collapse, seeing that the military affairs were handled in an orderly manner, he praised Su Dingfang in his heart, "I ask you, have you ever read a book?"

Su Dingfang was puzzled, so he clasped his hands and replied: "I have been in the army for two years, and I was a student of a poor family before, and I have never studied."

"But I see that your military affairs are handled in an orderly manner, and you don't look illiterate!"

Su Dingfang explained: "It is General Li Xianzhong who usually teaches me, so..."

Li Jing felt rather regretful: "So, you are General Li Xianzhong's disciple?"

"He Dehe Nengneng is a disciple of General Li Xianzhong. He only teaches us how to read and write, and has never taught us the art of war."

"En! You go down now!" Li Jing waved his hand, Su Dingfang retreated in a daze, Li Jing murmured: "This Su Dingfang is a talent in the rough, I am over thirty now, and I just happen to accept a heir. "

The next day, when Su Dingfang brought fine wine, he was looking at the books on the table, but none of them moved.In the next few days, Li Jing's tent smelled of alcohol, and Su Dingfang successively sent military affairs to Li Jing to deal with, but Li Jing ignored him and just asked for good wine.

The soldiers passed by Li Jing's tent, they could only smell the smell of alcohol, and soon, all the soldiers knew that the new general who replaced Li Xianzhong was drinking and having fun in the camp every day, and did not deal with military affairs.Dissatisfaction among lieutenant generals and schools was brewing, and many rumors and rumors were spread.

Time passed quickly, and 20 days passed quickly. During these 20 days, many generals and schools came to Li Jing, asking Li Jing to handle military affairs and supervise the training of soldiers.But Li Jing stayed at home, staying in the camp every day, and Li Jing's military tent smelled very strong of alcohol.

On this day, Li Jing and Wang Meng sat opposite each other in Jinyang City Governor's Mansion.

Wang Meng poured a cup of tea for Li Jing, looked at the wine and Li Jing said with a smile: "I said pharmacist, even if you are Zimo, you don't have to do this, I can smell the alcohol on your body. Now there are rumors in the army, many soldiers are I'm quite complaining, I'm afraid Yuan Shao has already got the news from here, shouldn't you restore your original appearance?"

"The original face? I have always been self-disciplined, and the military law is very strict, so I dare not commit crimes myself! But the news is enough, it's time to calm down these soldiers!" Li Jing nodded and said.

"That's good, if you go on like this, I don't even know how to end it for you!"

Li Jing's expression turned serious: "Hey, I provoked this matter, and I have to solve it myself, otherwise how can I convince the public? It's more than 20 days since I gave Sun Qing a gift, how is it going?"

"Since you have confidence, I won't ask any more questions. However, these soldiers have come to me to sue you several times in the past few days. Thanks to me, I suppressed you. These soldiers have a lot of grievances, you should treat them as snacks! "

Wang Meng paused, and continued: "As for the gift giving, I have already sent someone to give it three times!"

"Three times? How about the details?" Li Jing asked in a low voice after drinking a cup of tea.

Wang Meng replied: "The first time, Sun Qing expelled the envoy, and the gift was confiscated. The second time, Sun Qing expelled the envoy, but the gift was very important and Sun Qing took it. The third time, Sun Qing killed the envoy and took the gift." .”

Li Jing murmured: "The third time I killed the envoy, so there were comments against Sun Qing within Jingjing Pass, so Sun Qing was under pressure and killed the envoy to prove his innocence?"

Wang Meng nodded and said: "It must be so. While I sent people to give gifts, I also let people spread rumors. I am afraid that the news of Sun Qing and Zhang Yan's collusion with our army has already entered Yuan Shao's ears!"

"Twenty days is enough. I'm afraid Yuan Shao is thinking about changing generals right now. I'm afraid the bad news from my place has reached Yuan Shao's ears, so there's no need to send someone to give gifts. I'm going back to rectify the morale of the army!" Li Jing stood up and wanted to return to the barracks.

"Inspector, it's not good. The soldiers in the army are all gathered outside the general's camp, and they don't train. I want General Li to explain!" At this moment, a servant ran into the hall and said anxiously.

"Pharmacist, hurry up, otherwise there will be a mutiny, and the event will be over!" Wang Meng said hastily.

Li Jing stroked his beard with a smile and said: "These boys are really patient. They have endured for so long. Jing Lue, you don't have to worry. I'll come when I go for small things! Just listen to the good news!"

As Li Jing said, he headed towards the barracks outside the city.
