Chapter 146: Bestow

"Your Highness!"
Xiao Ming approached, Luo Xin bowed his fists.
Jumping off from the horse, Xiao Ming asked Luo Xin to exempt him. At the same time, he looked at the old man who was over fifty years old beside him, and said, "If I didn't guess wrong, this is Niu Ben, General Niu."
Niu Ben looked up and down King Qi, saw a bit of Xiao Wenxuan's shadow on Xiao Ming's body, bowed and saluted, and said: "The criminal Niu Ben has seen His Royal Highness Qi."
"General Niu exempts the ceremony. This king can't afford the old general's heavy gift." Xiao Ming said with a smile, "Old general, please follow me to the palace and talk more."
The three of them entered the palace together, and Xiao Ming asked Luluo to prepare tea for the three.
In the main hall, Xiao Ming invited Luo Xin and Niu Ben to sit down. At this time, he bowed to Niu Ben and said: "The old general has suffered, and my father has been ashamed over the years. He hates that he didn't keep the barbarians out of Shanhaiguan. Let me make amends to the old general for him."
Niu Ben is no longer the unruly Niu Ben that year. He stood up and said, "How dare a sinner be a gift to your Highness? My Majesty can think of my old bone, and I am already grateful."
"The old general is too modest." Xiao Ming said with a smile: "The old general's martial arts is so impressive, and this king also admires it in his heart. This time I hope that the old general can help this king overcome the danger of the barbarian going south."
Niu Ben heard the words and said, "Luo Xin just stopped talking at the gate of the city. His Royal Highness talked about this again. What happened?"
Xiao Ming and Luo Xin looked at each other, and then they talked about what happened above the court.
"These thieves who eat inside and out, harm the country and the people, if I am running around, I will definitely take their skin off." Although Niu Ben has been somewhat restrained in the past five years, this matter still made him very angry.
"The old general doesn't need to be angry. This is the fact. I can only do my best to obey the destiny." Xiao Ming said.
At this time, Zhan Xingchang had already gone to Cangzhou to repair the city wall, and he took almost all the cement produced in Qingzhou City. He only hoped that he could turn this Cangzhou City into an unbreakable fortress.
"Hey, your poor majesty is now going to fight the barbarians to destroy the arrogance of the barbarians. These thieves are really a group of killers." Niu Ben said.
After a pause, he said: "But if the barbarian can be defeated to go south, it will also be able to let the barbarian know about the greatness of my great Yu country.
"Exactly, so this time I only hope that the old general will help this king." Xiao Ming said, taking the opportunity.
Niu Ben nodded, and said slowly: "The old official wears the body of sin, and his Highness will not give up, go through water and fire, and will not hesitate."
Xiao Ming felt relieved. He thought that Niu Ben would still hate Xiao Wenxuan's assignment of him to hard labor, but he did not expect Niu Ben's temperament to seem to be less violent than the legend.
In this way, he really has reached a commander-level general.
For Niu Ben, this fierce man, Xiao Ming naturally did not expect him to defend the city. A city of Cangzhou Lu Fei is enough, and his heart is far more than that.
The large areas of Guanzhong land outside the city of Cangzhou used to be the homeland of the Great Yu Kingdom. If it can be recovered, it may be possible to further expand its fief.
The most important thing is that if you can win the Shanhaiguan pass, you will be able to keep the barbarians out of the customs, and you don't have to worry about the threat of the barbarians.
"General! General!"
When the three of them were drinking tea and talking about the barbarians, suddenly Lu Fei's voice came.
Then I saw Lu Fei happily walking in, looking at Niu Ben, "General, is it really you?"
Niu Ben was a little surprised when he saw Lu Fei, "Lu Fei?"
"General, it's me." Lu Fei said excitedly.
Xiao Ming and Luo Xin looked at each other, Xiao Ming couldn't help asking, "Old General, do you know Lu Fei?"
When Lu Fei was passing by Qingzhou Mansion just now, he heard two foreign guards talking about escorting Niu Ben. After asking carefully, he understood the reason, and immediately came to Qi Mansion.
Lu Fei said at this time: "When the general was in Cangzhou City, I was the general's personal guard. Later, when the general returned to Chang'an, we local soldiers stayed."
"Hey, these are old things, but looking at you like this, it seems that you are very trustworthy in front of the temple, yes, yes, I did not misunderstand you back then." Niu Ben said.
Lu Fei was a little excited, and said, "I dare not forget the general's teachings."
Xiao Ming's gaze and the three of them patrolled back and forth. In the past, the Qingzhou Army only had Lu Fei, but now that Luo Xin came, the two were arguing.
Now there is a bull run, which seems to be able to suppress the two.
And this Niu Ben has some means to govern the army, and the soldiers under his hands are very disciplined. In this way, he can rest assured that Lu Fei and Luo Xin will not be quarreling and affect the training of the Qingzhou Army.
Moreover, Niu Ben is a man who has been a great general. He has a good command of 100,000 soldiers under his hand and is very proficient in various affairs in the army.
It's not like Lu Fei has not established a management system in the military until now, and he doesn't know how to use the military expenses in his hand.
An angry Xiao Ming had to take back the silver to Pang Yukun and let him manage it on his behalf.
Now that Niu Ben is here, the management system in this army should not be a problem. When the military and administration are separated, it will be easy for oneself to have a complete grasp of the military and administration, avoiding mutual interference between the military and administration, which is unclear.
The experience of later generations taught him that the army should not be mixed with administrative officials, otherwise disasters can easily occur.
For the military, all it takes is to obey orders and not have its own thoughts.
No matter who leads the army, the object of allegiance to this army must be him.
And this is one of the reasons why he established a long history team in the army. The long history represents him, and he masters the thinking of the army so that the army will not be in chaos.
In this way, whether it is Lu Fei, Luo Xin, or Niu Ben, the prerequisite for them to command the army is to get their own instruction, and when they want to take them, the UU reading www.uukanshu.com army is still as stable as Mount Tai. Changed because of the change of coach.
This is a qualified army for him.
It is precisely because of this that Xiao Ming is not worried about Niu Ben, Lu Fei or Luo Xin, because the army is his, and Lu Fei and others are only responsible for commanding the army and performing their duties.
After Lu Fei's emotions eased for a while, Xiao Ming said: "Old General, since Lu Fei was once your subordinate, it seems that only you can control this thorn. In this way, the captain of the Qingzhou Army The position is the old general."
In addition to the title of the prince, Xiao Ming had the position of the governor of the six states, and the charms of the six states army were in his hands.
Even if Lu Fei mobilizes the army, he needs to ask for a soldier's charm.
This general governor belongs to the military position in Dayu State, and under the general governor is the governor in charge of each state, and now the Qingzhou Army is the strongest army among the six states.
After all, with Xiao Ming's current financial resources, he can only focus on training an army now.
