Liang Zhi perked up and hurriedly said, "Please come in quickly!" ”

Not long after, a thin middle-aged man in his forties hurriedly walked into the official room, he was the head of the Teng family Teng Xuan, the Teng family is the first family in Beihai County, with a long history, it has long been rooted in Beihai County, and the financial resources are abundant, among the two thousand private troops recruited by Liang Zhi, the Teng family raised 1,200 people.

There was also a young man behind Teng Xuan, he was blocked by Teng Xuan's body, Liang Zhi didn't recognize him for a while, Teng Xuan bowed down when he entered the room, "See the envoy!" ”

"Brother Xian doesn't have to be polite!"

Liang Zhi smiled and waved his hand, only then did he notice that the young man behind him was not Teng Xuan's son Teng Yinghei, but a young man who was a little familiar, he thought about it for a while, and immediately remembered, "You are Cui Yuanhan!" ”

Liang Zhi is a protégé of the Cui family in Qinghe, and he often goes in and out of Cui's Mansion, but since the Gaojibo outbreak in Qinghe County, he has never returned to his hometown, because Cui's Mansion has also temporarily moved to Bohai County, and he has not been to Cui's Mansion, this Cui Yuanhan is still what he saw five years ago.

Cui Yuanhan bowed and saluted, "Little nephew, see Uncle Liang Shi!" ”

Cui Yuanhan is the second son of Cui Huan, the head of the Cui family in Qinghe, because the eldest son is an official in Wei County, so Cui Huan has left many things to the second son to do, Liang Zhi knows that Cui Yuanhan's arrival must be Cui Huan's meaning, he nodded, "Please sit down!" ”

The three of them sat down, and Teng Xuan said first: "I wrote a letter to the Cui Mansion two days ago, so the head of the Cui family asked Yuan Han to come." ”

Teng Xuan's wife was born in the Cui clan of Qinghe and is Cui Huan's sister, although she is not the daughter of the main hall, but in terms of the status of the Teng family. Teng Xuan's marriage to the daughter of Qinghe Cui belongs to Gao Pan, and Teng Xuan is also complacent about this.

Liang Zhi knows this very well, if it was just a matter of the Teng family, Cui Huan would definitely not send his second son over, and the Teng family did not have this face. Cui Yuanhan's coming to Beihai County must have something important.

"Is there anything important about the virtuous nephew coming to Yidu County?" Liang Zhi asked Cui Yuanhan directly.

Cui Yuanhan nodded, glanced at Teng Xuan, and said, "Uncle Teng wrote a letter to his father, and Zhang Xuan was mentioned in the letter, and my father was worried that you didn't know about him, so he sent me here." ”

Liang Zhi was shocked, he was worried about Zhang Xuan's matter. The Cui family sent someone here, does this Zhang Xuan really have any background? He hurriedly asked: "I just met this Zhang Xuan today, and I feel that he is not the same as Zhang Xutuo's subordinates, who is he?" ”

Cui Yuanhan said slowly: "This Zhang Xuan is not Zhang Xutuo's person, he is the person of King Yan. Come to Qingzhou is also an independent government, when he was in Zhuo County by the Holy Emperor as a martial arts general, and later in Goguryeo combat meritorious service, was named a heroic general, he is a celebrity in the imperial court, dare to fight with Yuwen Shu, and has never fallen behind, if Uncle Shi looks down on him. There will be hardships. ”

Liang Zhi couldn't help but smile bitterly, no wonder this person is very powerful, it turns out that he has such a deep background. He couldn't help but sigh lowly, "I've already suffered. ”

Cui Yuanhan and Teng Xuan glanced at each other, and the two of them asked in unison, "What kind of suffering?" ”

Liang Zhi shook his head, "Don't say anything about this matter, he asked me to hand over the two thousand troops to him, and at the same time give up the security of Beihai County." I am thinking about it again and again, and I intend to compromise with him! ”

Although Liang Zhi did not say what the pain was. But Teng Xuan also guessed that Zhang Xuan must have caught Liang Zhi's big handle. Forcing Liang Zhi to give in, Teng Xuan sighed secretly in his heart, but now there was no room for him to speak, so he had to remain silent.

Liang Zhi groaned for a while, and asked Cui Yuanhan again: "I don't know what your father's attitude is?" ”

Cui Yuanhan smiled slightly, "I'm just here to convey my father's attitude, and my father hopes that Uncle Shi won't be an enemy of him and try to cooperate with him as much as possible." ”

This answer was expected by Liang Zhi, since Zhang Xuan was the person of King Yan, how could the Cui family offend King Yan for a little power, he nodded, "Since your father also said so, then I will agree to Zhang Xuan's conditions." ”

Liang Zhi knew in his heart that 2,000 soldiers would definitely not be able to keep it, how could Zhang Xuan allow another army to exist in Beihai County, if the 2,000 army could not be kept, there would naturally be no right to public security, this is a one-two relationship, without one, there would be no two.

Liang Zhi turned back to Teng Xuan and said, "No need to delay, hand over the two thousand troops to him today." ”

"I see."

Teng Xuan hesitated for a moment and then said in a low voice: "Do you want us to keep a hand, such as asking to keep high-ranking officials in the army." ”

Liang Zhi shook his head, "There's no need, Zhang Xuan won't give me this opportunity, instead of fighting senselessly, it's better to hand over the officer to him cleanly, and have a favor, all the generals above the brigade commander will be disbanded with thick coins!" ”

Teng Xuan was helpless, so he nodded silently

Liang Zhi's quick compromise was still beyond Zhang Xuan's expectations, and when two thousand soldiers appeared at the gate of the barracks, Zhang Xuan was also very satisfied with Liang Zhi's attitude.

Two thousand soldiers lined up neatly outside the barracks, led by Teng Xuan's brother Teng Yao, who was also the county lieutenant of Yidu.

He turned over and dismounted, stepped forward and saluted Zhang Xuan: "General Qiqi Zhang, according to the general's requirements, all 2,000 soldiers will join the Great Sui army, and in addition, the security power of Beihai County will also be handed over to the general, and the general will send someone to negotiate the specific details." ”

Zhang Xuan smiled and nodded, "Please tell Liang Taishou to the county lieutenant, I deeply appreciate his sincerity, and I hope that our military and local sides will cooperate happily from now on to ensure the safety of Beihai County." ”

"I must tell you the truth in the next place, and I will leave first!"

Teng Yao saluted, turned over and left the barracks, and returned to the county seat, Zhang Xuan immediately came to the two thousand soldiers, all of whom looked at him nervously.

Zhang Xuan's face was very serious, and he stepped forward and said loudly to everyone: "I am Zhang Xuan, the chief general of the Beihai County garrison, from today on, I am the chief general of all of you, first, I first welcome everyone back to the barracks, I believe that many people have stayed in this barracks behind me, but the main general has changed, the rules have also changed, you need to know my rules!" ”

Zhang Xuan's sharp eyes swept towards the two thousand people one by one, and seeing that no one was talking to each other, he nodded secretly, the discipline of this army was okay, and he continued: "My rules are only eight words, military discipline is strict, rewards and punishments are fair, I don't care what your background is, whether you are a child of a family or a beggar, I don't care, I only look at military merits, and those who have made military merits will be promoted and rewarded, but those who dare to disobey military orders and violate military discipline will be severely punished!" ”

Zhang Xuan raised his voice again, "I Zhang Xuan must have heard what I said, I haven't entered the barracks yet, so I'll give you one last chance, if you don't want to join the Sui army, you can leave now, I won't stop you, but once you enter the barracks and want to leave, it's a deserter, I'm going to kill someone, you decide for yourself!" ”

Two thousand people are silent, they all have their own reasons for joining the army, but it is a common wish to receive rewards for meritorious service, Zhang Xuan said that the rewards and punishments are fair, and those who have made military merits are promoted and rewarded deeply to everyone.

Moreover, these days, the soldiers of the garrison go into the city to wander, and basically all of them are full of money, which also makes many people envious in their hearts, and they are also eager to be able to make meritorious contributions.

In the end, only about 30 people who did not want to join the army66 continued to walk out of the ranks, bowed to Zhang Xuan, and went back to the city, and Zhang Xuan did not stop them, and let them leave.

It wasn't until no one left that Zhang Xuan nodded, and said to the lieutenant next to him: "I will leave the training of the recruits to you, first concentrate on intensive training for ten days, and then break up and arrange to join the regiments." ”

Wei Chigong clenched his fists and said: "Obey the order!" ”

He urged his horse forward and shouted to the soldiers, "Queue up and enter the camp!" ”

The soldiers followed Wei Chigong to the camp and walked in line, and a group of soldiers walked into the barracks, at this time, Liu Ling stepped forward and said with a smile: "General, I looked at the list, the highest military position in it is only the brigade commander, and there are no captains and generals." ”

Zhang Xuan also said happily: "This Liang Zhi is a smart person, he didn't do anything to me, such a person can cooperate with him, Liu Sima and others will take a few people to the county government office later, and Liang Zhi will handle the transfer of public security, and then ask him what arrangements he has, hundreds of thousands of people will have an accident in the county sooner or later, I suggest that it is better to disperse as soon as possible." ”

"Does the general think it's better to let the people return to their hometowns, or to disperse and live around the county?" Liu Ling asked again.

"I don't care about this, it's a matter for the local government."

After a pause, Zhang Xuan said again: "But you can give him a suggestion, you can follow the way of Qi County, with Yidu County as the center, and build towns around it, so that it is convenient for the army to protect their safety." ”

"I understand the lowly position, I'll prepare first, and I'll go to the county government right away."

"Go ahead!"

Liu Ling saluted and returned to the barracks first, Zhang Xuan immediately looked into the distance, he saw a cavalry running on the official road in the distance, and after a while, the cavalry rushed to him, only to see a feather stuck in his helmet, which turned out to be a messenger.

The messenger cavalry urged the horse forward, saluted Zhang Xuan, took out a volume of letters and handed it to Zhang Xuan, and said: "It's a letter from the marshal to the general, please take the time to go to Qi County." (To be continued)
