I’m The King Chapter 936: :Huanghuang Hanwei (sixty)
Back to the county office in Rao'an, as soon as he stepped through the gate, Bai Yucheng saw a person standing in the middle of the hall, staring at him with a smile, he couldn't help but shouted in surprise and joy, "Niu Ben, Are you here?"
Niu Ben smiled and cupped his hands and said, "General Bai, I haven't seen you for a few months, but you have made new achievements."
Bai Yucheng laughed, stepped forward and grabbed Niu Ben's hand, "Come on, go to the study at the back, and tell me the details of the founding of our country by the Han Dynasty. It's a pity that I can't participate in this grand ceremony in person. I feel regretful." Very good!"
Walking into the study, closing the door, Niu Ben took out a letter from his arms, "This is a secret letter from the governor, General Bai, first I want to congratulate you. There are not many marquises at one time, and you are one of them."
"Marquis Feng?" Bai Yucheng opened his mouth wide, "Me?" He pointed to his nose and asked.
"Of course, General Bai, you were granted the title of Marquis of Ning Yuan by King Ce of the Han Dynasty. This time, apart from Jiang Yizheng who was given the title of Duke of Ding, the King of Han only granted eight titles, and you are one of them." Niu Ben Enviously said: "This is a rare honor, the founding master!"
Bai Yucheng stood up and faced the direction of Jicheng, clasped his fists with both hands, and bowed to the ground, "Bai Yucheng thanked the King of Han for his kindness, he couldn't thank the King in person, he could only wish the King of Han all the best here from a distance. Bai Yucheng is here, he must be the King of Han The great cause is dedicated, and it is only after death.”
"Master Bai is overjoyed, let's ask for a glass of wedding wine!" Niu Ben on the side laughed.
"Brother, it's not easy to drink, so tell me about Jicheng first?" Bai Yucheng laughed and pulled Niu Ben to sit down.
"It's a pity to say that I left Jicheng ahead of time because I wanted to come to Lord Marquis, but I couldn't see the grand occasion of our King of Han ascending the throne, but just thinking about it makes me excited, I just know All legions have sent the most elite troops to Jicheng for a military parade, as well as militias from all over the country, and there are tens of thousands of troops for these military parades alone!" Niu Ben said.
"I can't wait to fly back to Jicheng!" Bai Yucheng said eagerly, "I heard that this time we fought a battle with the people of Qin."
"It wasn't just a battle, but a fierce fight. In Jiuyuan County, we kidnapped 50,000 to 60,000 Qin people, and the fight made Wang Jian shrink back to Jiuyuan County and dare not take the lead. This side , Yang Dasha's Young Guards First Division also fought a head-to-head battle with the Qin army's elite, breaking up the pawns that the Qin people were proud of, and finally forced Fan Sui, the chief assistant of the Qin people, to They went to Jicheng to negotiate with us, not only compensated a large amount of silver, but also gave us most of the land they occupied in Wei State, those places are good places, not only the land is fertile, but also has a large population."
Bai Yucheng was a little puzzled and said: "It's not reasonable, it's just a battle, the people of Qin didn't hurt their muscles, how could they spit out the meat they ate so happily?"
"Master Hou is smart." Niu Ben gave a thumbs up and said: "I didn't quite understand it at the time, but I only realized after listening to the young lady talking about it. The people of Qin are uneasy and kind, and they want to drive a wedge between us and Wei. The relationship between people, they are probably going to go back and fight with the Zhao people now, and they don’t want to fight with us here, and it seems that they are not sure to fight us.”
"In this case, we want more?"
"Why not?" Niu Ben laughed and said, "We snatched this back from the Qin people. If the Wei people want to get it back, they have to be confident. But I don't know how the superiors answered, left and right The people of the Wei state have died down, and now we are vigorously promoting the land policy of our big Han in a new area. In a few years, can those places still be regarded as the places of the Wei people?"
Bai Yucheng smiled, "That's true."
"Actually, this time we also lost a lot, Naha is gone!" Niu Ben said with some sadness: "Naha was ambushed by Lu Chao, and almost the entire army of five thousand horses was wiped out."
"Naha died in battle!" Bai Yucheng was taken aback, that guy with a big beard and a rough face was actually a very careful person, how could he be ambushed.
"The king of Han was furious because of this incident, and he even launched a rectification movement in the army, saying that we have been going smoothly and winning many battles over the years, so we think we are great, and think that Lao Tzu is the best in the world, so that's why With the matter of the tyrant's ambush, all the generals in the army, big and small, were writing reflections to the governor during that period of time!" Niu Ben said, "But that's okay, as a result, the arrogant people in the army It kills a lot."
Bai Yucheng nodded slightly, "The King of Han's move is very extreme. We have indeed gone too smoothly these years. Next, we will face the powerful army of the Central Plains. Whether it is Zhao, Chu or Qin, it will be a tough battle. !"
"Who says it's not! Lord Bai, we may not have any big battles to fight in the next two years. The King of Han wants to focus on Qi, and this time we will attack Qi. The main force is you."
"Me?" Bai Yucheng said in surprise, "What can I do with the three melons and two dates in my hand?"
"The main purpose of the imperial court is to provoke a civil war between the two young masters of Tian. The more cruel and tragic they fight, the more impoverished the country will be. Constantly recruiting troops and increasing food taxes will inevitably cause domestic resentment. Resisting the wave, Master Bai has already begun to take shape, and the next step is to make good use of the situation, constantly strengthen himself and expand his power."
"This is not a big problem, but there are not many people here who are really capable of fighting. Although there are more than 3,000 people now, most of them are farmers and fishermen. If the weather gets worse, the Tian family will definitely send regular troops to destroy us, and then I can't deal with it!" Bai Yucheng wiped his sweat.
"Of course the imperial court will give you great assistance." Niu Ben laughed and said, "Don't forget, the sea route is in our hands. You don’t have to worry about weapons. Didn’t we capture 70,000 to 80,000 Qi troops a year ago? We don’t bother to use their weapons. Where are they piled up for recycling? This time Most of them are in stock and ready to be sent to you when the time comes."
"Our own guy is still easy to use!" Bai Yucheng sighed.
"Our guy is easy to use, but if you, the leader of the Red Turban Army, use a lot of our big man's standard weapons, you will not call yourself!" Niu Ben laughed. Let’s make do with these Qi people’s weapons first, and one day, you will replace them with the standard weapons of our big men.”
"I sincerely hope that this day will come soon!" Bai Yucheng said.
"It won't be long, and now the two young masters of Tian are trying their best to see the two bulls fighting with red eyes, and our King of Han is working hard at both ends, and you are crossing the field, ha, there will be a good show at that time. "Niu Ben giggled." By the way, Lord Bai, the king must have explained to you in the letter that your affairs in Qi State are the great secret of our Han Dynasty. It is not surprising to know this matter. More than ten people, your army has a record in our military department. The king gave you a group army organization, and the legion number is called Qilu Corps. But at this stage, of course, it can only exist in the file. It is invisible."
"The establishment of a group army?" Bai Yucheng was shocked.
"Yes, the formation of a group army, and before the official return, there will be no limit on your number. In the words of Han Wang, the more the better, of course, the core troops of the Marquis must maintain a considerable combat effectiveness. Now You have a lot of talents under your command, tiger head and horizontal knife, they are all talents of generals." Niu Ben said.
"Tiger Head, Heng Dao, I'm already planning to let them form a battalion, and the other pirate I recovered, Wei Zhiwen, is also quite talented, so I'm going to let him form another battalion. With a thousand people, there are three battalion heads, plus the hundreds of special forces brought by myself to form my Chinese army's personal guard battalion." Bai Yucheng looked at Niu Ben: "General Niu is here this time, and he is here for a long time. Or do you have to rush back again?"
Niu Ben laughed and said: "This time, I will serve under Lord Hou for a long time. I don't want to hide it from Lord Hou. I am a member of the Overwatch Council. When I come to the army, I will naturally form a special team on behalf of the Overwatch Council. Firstly, the Qilu Legion is within the enemy’s territory, so we need to continue to carry out a series of underground activities such as instigation and alienation, and in addition, we also need to monitor the activities of the Qilu Legion.”
Bai Yucheng smiled, "You don't need to tell me these things."
"No, the King of Han said that anyone can hide my activities in the Qilu Legion, but only Marquis Bai." Niu Ben spread his hands.
Bai Yucheng couldn't help being moved when he heard this, "The king of Han really has nothing to say to me. In this case, General Niu, you should be a lieutenant general in my camp. There is no specific position, and it is convenient." Your activities. When necessary, you can use this special brigade by my side at any time."
"Thank you for your support, Lord Hou. I believe that we will be the most tacit cooperation between the Overwatch Council system and military generals." Niu Ben laughed.
"What should the navy do? Since I have been involved in the case, the navy can't control it? But we need his support." Bai Yucheng asked another question of concern.
"The naval division is handed over to Kou Shuguang, who will connect the Qilu Army with the mainland, and deliver supplies and other supplies to us when we need it. This time I came here and brought three ships of armor, weapons, just now When I came in, I saw a lot of people were still holding hoes, sickles, sheep forks and sticks, and now I can change all of them." Niu Ben said with a smile.
"That's great!" Bai Yu Cheng Daxi stood up, "Now the two sons of the Tian family are in Jicheng and have not returned yet. The dragons have no leaders. I am planning to conquer another city or two to expand my power and recruit more soldiers. Ma, these weapons arrived in time."
While the two were talking, cheers came from outside. The two looked at each other, and Niu Ben smiled and said: "It seems that the weapons I brought have been delivered."
"Let's go, take a look!" Bai Yucheng said excitedly: "People rely on clothing, birds rely on fur clothing, our army naturally depends on the guy in hand, and it will be different if we replace it with the guy who is in our hand." .”(to be continued)
