…

After listening to Zhang Xian's self-introduction, Li Yan asked quietly: "Have you ever learned the art of war?" ”

Zhang Xian replied respectfully: "I have learned." ”

Li Yan said: "Quedi, you will stay in the First Army as the commander of the first battalion of infantry first, and I will be promoted according to your performance in the future." ”

In fact, Li Yan originally made up his mind to press the newly recruited generals, especially those who have the ability to command the army, and put all the capable generals around him to slowly cultivate influence, so as not to encourage the seedlings to grow.

It's like to the cow gao.

You must know that Niu Gao is a real commander of the army with both wisdom and bravery. In the fourth year of Shaoxing, when the Yuejia army made a northern expedition to Jingxiang six counties where the puppet Qi was entrenched, Zhang Xian and Xu Qing, another fierce general of the Yuejia army, led troops to attack Suizhou, and the defender Wang Song could not defend it, and the Yuejia army still did not succeed in attacking for more than a month. Yue Fei sent Niu Gao to support, and when he left, Niu Gao only brought three days of grain and grass, but he captured Suizhou without waiting for the grain to run out, captured 5,000 enemies, and captured Wang Song alive. It can be seen that he is good at fighting.

But for Niu Gao, Li Yan pressed it desperately and didn't let him come out for the time being.

As for Zhang Xian, Li Yan still let go in the end, and let him lead 500 people from the beginning.

Why?

Just because I like it too much, Zhang Xian's personality, Zhang Xian's bravery, and Zhang Xian's loyalty are all Li Yan's great favorites.

Therefore, Li Yan was afraid that he would press too hard and pressed Zhang Xian away.

Therefore, Li Yan's hand couldn't help but let go and gave Zhang Xian a command.

Hearing that Li Yan asked him to be the commander, or the commander of the First Army, Zhang Xian was overjoyed and said, "Xie Dadu Governor cultivates!" ”

A fierce general is not the same as a commander general.

As long as the fierce general can fight.

However, the commander of the army has to be cultivated slowly little by little.

The reason why Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Liu Qi, Wu Jie, including Niu Gao and Zhang Xian, were able to become commanders of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers was not born, but the day after tomorrow.

Li Yan knew this very well, so he couldn't help but instruct: "Jingren, our Liangshan Army has a martial arts hall and a battle case analysis hall, I hope you can learn more, after all, you are still young and have a long way to go." ”

Zhang Xian was very smart and heard what Li Yan wanted to cultivate him, so he bowed to the ground and said, "The junior general must learn as much as possible." ”

Li Yan nodded and said, "Go back and find Yu Cheng, he will arrange a command for you." ”

Zhang Xian said: "Thank you, the governor! After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Xian said again: "The Metropolitan Governor, the young general still has a friend......

Li Yan smiled: "Call me over and take a look." ”

Zhang Xianyan stopped, and hurriedly bowed again: "Yes!" ”

After a short time, Zhang Xian brought someone and said: "Dadu Governor, this is my friend Wang Jing, who has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and is proficient in the six arts, and he also wants to come to serve Dadudu." ”

Wang Jing, the Yuejia army is under the command of the army. Yue Fei and Cao Cheng fought against Mo Xie Pass, the fifth general of Yue's army, Han Shunfu, and Cao Cheng's general Yang Zaixing lost the battle, just as Wang Jing led the soldiers of his headquarters to transport grain here, and Zhang Xian, the commander of the former army, attacked together, defeated Cao Cheng's army, and captured Yang Zaixing alive.

"Being able to lead an army alone like Zhang Xian is enough to show that the talent of this Wang Jing should not be bad."

Thinking of this, Li Yan said: "I'll give you two choices, the first option is to be a team general under Jing Ren, and the second option is to compete with any of the four of them, and if you win, you can lead a battalion in the first army like Jing Ren." ”

Wang Jing didn't think much about it, so he said: "The villain listens to the governor, the governor lets the villain compare, the villain compares, the governor lets the villain be the team leader, and the villain is the team leader." ”

Li Yanxin said: "This is either an obedient person or a sycophant...... Yue Fei's political acumen is not good, but it is actually possible to know people, so it should be more likely that he is the former. ”

Li Yan rushed to Suo Chao, who was standing in front of the Ma Zhan brand among the four people, and said, "Compare with him." ”

Under Zhou Jin's persuasion, Suo Chao finally voted for Li Yan.

Considering that Ma Yijun currently lacks a deputy commander, Li Yan asked Suo Chao to join Ma Yijun and serve as Lin Chong's deputy.

And Ma Yijun has always acted with Li Yan, which is equivalent to half of Li Yan's pro-army, and this time he is no exception to protect Li Yan.

Li Yan knew that Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Tangyin County, so he asked Suo Chao, who was almost healed from his injury, to assess Ma Zhan.

Suo Chao said: "Great, finally let me move my muscles." ”

Suo Chao and Wang Jing put on their respective draped and then changed their horses to the field.

Axes and guns came and went, and the two fought for fifty rounds without a win.

Li Yan was afraid that he would hurt the two, and besides, Suo Chao was not suitable for a fierce battle for a short time, so Li Yan stopped Suo Chao and Wang Jing, and then asked Wang Jing to also lead a battalion of infantry troops.

Recruitment continues.

Because Zhang Xian and Wang Jing served as the commanders of Li Yan's pro-army First Army as soon as they came, the people who signed up were even more enthusiastic.

However, such a high level of martial arts as Zhang Xian and Wang Jing has never appeared again.

However, Li Yan was not in a hurry, and still sat firmly in Diaoyutai.

Li Yan believes that Yue Fei, who has revenge, will definitely come, definitely!

……

Eight days later at noon.

Seven young men came to the recruitment point.

The person at the head has a dignified body and a resolute face, but the fly in the ointment is that one eye is slightly large and the other eye is small.

When the seven young men arrived, they were just in time for the recruitment to start the meal.

A young man said, "It's not the right time, let's find a place to eat." ”

Another young man said, "Why don't you go to the senior brother, maybe he can invite us to the restaurant for a good meal." ”

The big-eyed young man said: "Nonsense, if the Metropolitan Governor knows that I am looking for a senior brother before the assessment, it may be misunderstood that I am looking for a senior brother to dredge up the relationship." ”

A young man with a very steady appearance said: "The eldest brother is very true, and I am not in a hurry to see the senior brother at this time, and it is not too late to meet the senior brother after we finish the assessment." ”

The youngest, a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, said: "Let's listen to Brother Zhang Xian's first go eat something, so as not to have the strength to respond for a while." ”

Zhang Xiandao: "Erlang also wants to be recruited? ”

The young man named Erlang said: "The recruitment document of the Metropolitan Governor clearly states that you can be older than thirteen years old, why can't I participate?" ”

The reason why Li Yan lowered his age to thirteen years old was actually for the generals of the Yue family's army, you must know that some of the generals of the Yue's army are now fourteen or fifteen years old, that is, Yue Fei, who is only sixteen or seventeen years old now.

At this moment, a rough man walked up to the seven of them and said, "You are here to answer?" ”

The big-eyed young man arched his hand and said, "Exactly, I don't know what the eldest brother has to say?" ”

The rough man said: "The governor of the capital has an order, everyone who comes to apply for the recruitment, take care of the food, since you are here to apply, come and eat a little." ”

The big-eyed young man excused himself: "Thank you, big brother, we are about to go out to eat ......"

The rough man said: "If you really want to eat outside, I won't stop you, but if you are embarrassed, then you don't have to, the people who squat over there to eat bread and drink broth are all recruited, and the row of sheds over there is a relief point set up by the Metropolitan Governor, that is, no matter who can eat here, of course, the food should be better." ”

The big-eyed young man had actually seen these two groups of people a long time ago, especially the group of civilians who were queuing up to receive porridge and waiting in line to see a doctor in front of dozens of sheds in the distance, but he didn't expect that this was set up by Li Yan.

The big-eyed young man bowed and said: "In Xia Yue Fei, several of them are my brothers, I wonder if the eldest brother can tell us in detail, what's going on with the shed over there?" ”
