Chapter 848 Traces
~~~~~~
Although the main military system of the Changsheng Battalion is still the chief general system, the staff system has been implemented for several years.
Of course, due to the inadequacy of innate conditions, the staff system is still a subsidiary of the commander-in-chief system. However, after several years of development, the deputies around the commander-in-chief already have a lot of say.
Lu Jinshan is a time-honored and experienced powerful person, Mr. Qian. Although Wang Sanwa is one level higher than him, she also values Lu Jinshan's opinions.
The two of them had a chat first, which was somewhat similar to the internal party committee meeting in later generations. The general and the senior generals first communicated and unified their opinions, and then put them into practice.
At this time, after understanding what Wang Sanwa meant, Lu Jinshan couldn't help but smile: "Old Wang, I have no objection to this matter, let's just do it. But do you have a plan in mind?"
Of course Wang Sanwa understood what Lu Jinshan meant, and smiled and said: "Lao Lu, do you have a plan? I do have one. But it's not mature yet. I'll tell you."
Wang Sanwa briefly described the plan to Lu Jinshan, and Lu Jinshan also understood Wang Sanwa's strategic intention. The two of them knew what was going on, and went directly to the Sijia dormitory to summon the sons and daughters to gather and discuss together.
At this time, in the military academy, because the resources were not very sufficient, Wang Sanwa and Lu Jinshan did not have personal soldiers, so they had to do these things themselves.
Fortunately, each general manager's dormitory was connected together, only a few steps apart, and he greeted several commander-in-chiefs. Soon, the men of the three general managers gathered in the fourth-level dormitory.
In the past, such major military expeditions were the work of senior generals. Even though Wang Sanwa and Lu Jinshan had the right to participate, they did not have much room to speak.
At this time, because of Li Yuanqing's delegation of power, not to mention the generals like Wang Sanwa and Lu Jinshan, all the men under his command were gearing up and preparing for a big fight.
"Brothers, this time, the general has set up a staircase to the sky for us! If you have any ideas, don't worry, just say it and we will discuss it together."
Wang Sanwa is already familiar with hosting this kind of meeting. Unfortunately, the environment here is a little narrower and far less spacious than the big tent. However, this tight space makes the hearts of the brothers seem to be closer.
Hearing Wang Sanwa's words, there was a burst of discussion in the room, and the atmosphere quickly became lively.
After a moment, Zhang Lei, the chief flag officer of the Third Class A, said with a smile: "Master Wang, Master Lu, I have some immature ideas here."
Zhang Lei is a recruit from the Changsheng Battalion and has only been in the army for more than two years.
However, this guy was brave in battle and had a very sharp mind. In just two years, he had risen to the position of commander-in-chief. After graduating from the military academy, everyone understood that this guy, a real-time commander-in-chief, would never be able to escape.
At this time, after all, it was not the time when Li Yuanqing had just established the army. It would take even a month or two for the small soldiers to rise to the rank of commander.
Even, like Lu Jinshan, he can be directly promoted from a soldier to the deputy general manager in one year.
At this time, with the continuous improvement of the system in the Changsheng Camp, even if the military achievements are very shining, they still have to go step by step, process by process.
This is what Li Yuanqing has always emphasized. The position of an officer must be solid. Only if the position of an officer is solid, the structure of the entire army will be stronger.
Although Zhang Lei is only the commander-in-chief at this time, his abilities have been recognized by everyone. Even Wang Sanwa and Lu Jinshan do not dare to neglect him.
Lu Jinshan couldn't help but laugh and said: "Xiao Zhangzi, Mr. Wang and I have known for a long time that you must have something on your mind. Come on, let's talk about it and see if anyone has any ideas."
Zhang Lei chuckled, not daring to make excuses, and hurriedly recounted his immature thoughts to everyone.
…………
The discussion in the military academy was in full swing, but Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong had already begun to get busy.
As the saying goes, "before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first."
Although the exact plan for the expedition has not yet been determined, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong already have a rough idea of the general plan.
Especially at this time, time is very precious. It must be the greatest deterrent to the Tatars during the autumn harvest, so the time must be even more compact.
But at the same time, news of the death of the little Emperor Tianqi also came from the capital.
Li Yuanqing immediately ordered that the flags in the entire southern Liaoning be flown at half-mast, and all the sons and daughters had their left arms wrapped in black gauze to perform funeral rites for the emperor.
As for the private sector, the Political Affairs Administration also quickly issued instructions. On the one hand, it organized official memorial activities. On the other hand, it also called on capable people to perform funeral services for the emperor in whatever way they could.
For a time, the joy of preparing for the autumn harvest in the entire southern Liaoning was slightly cast with a sad look.
However, with Li Yuanqing personally in charge of the overall situation, everything is within control.
Two days later, at the military academy, all the young men were already confident and gearing up, just waiting for tomorrow's assessment.
Li Yuanqing took a break from his busy schedule and held a small vegetarian banquet in the evening for Yang Miaocai.
Compared with warriors like Li Yuanqing, the death of the little emperor Tianqi obviously had a much greater impact on literati like Yang Miaocai.
As for Fei Qing, the eunuch, at this time, he had already been imprisoned by Li Yuanqing's order.
Once the situation becomes clear, what awaits this guy will be a sky-high bill from Changsheng Island, which is enough for this guy to drink a pot.
The vegetarian banquet was arranged in a small shop outside the military academy.
With the rise of the military academy, smart people soon opened up several taverns in the surrounding area.
Instead of obliterating this, Li Yuanqing controlled and guided them, allocated land for them, and encouraged them to start businesses.
However, it was just emerging at this time, and even the military academy was still very crude, let alone these taverns.
The main buildings of these taverns are mainly simple shacks.
However, the shack also has the atmosphere of a shack, and the wisdom of the common people is infinite, which makes Li Yuanqing feel like he has returned to the street stalls next to the university town in later generations.
Although Yang Miaocai was in a bad mood, he also knew that Li Yuanqing was very busy with affairs at the military academy recently, and he did not expect that Li Yuanqing would come to such a private place to invite him to dinner at this juncture.
"Li Shuai, we are all feeling the current situation."
Yang Miaocai's eye sockets were slightly sunken. It could be seen that this guy must have cried a lot in the past few days and was very haggard and tired.
Li Yuanqing nodded with deep satisfaction: "Yuan Qing deeply admires Brother Yang's feelings and ethics. Originally, Yuan Qing didn't want to disturb Brother Yang's peace. But today I came to Brother Yang because there are a few important things.
Yuan Qing wants to hear Brother Yang’s opinion on this matter."
Of course Yang Miaocai understood what Li Yuanqing meant.
The little emperor of Tianqi passed away, and the new emperor Xin Wang came to power. The original eunuch party structure was bound to be greatly disrupted.
In this way, it no longer makes much sense for Li Yuanqing to restrict him and Fei Qing to Changsheng Island.
He hurriedly raised his hands respectfully and said: "Li Shuai can tell Miao Cai clearly if he has something to do, and Miao Cai will listen attentively."
Li Yuanqing nodded: "Brother Miaocai, people in the Ming Dynasty don't speak secretly. On Yuanqing's side, there are two main things to discuss with Brother Miaocai. One is the matter of the new emperor. Brother Miaocai must be sure now
I already know it. If Brother Miaocai wants to, he can return to the capital at any time."
Yang Miaocai had already guessed what Li Yuanqing meant, but he still bowed his hand to Li Yuanqing respectfully, "Miao Cai deeply admires Li Shuai's broadmindedness. If Miao Cai returns to the capital, Li Shuai can rest assured."
Li Yuanqing nodded and said: "Brother Miaocai, there is one more thing. In the past few days, I am planning to use troops against the hinterland of Houjin. If Brother Miaocai is interested, I would like to invite Brother Miaocai to accompany us."
"Well?"
Even though Yang Miaocai was mentally prepared, he never expected that Li Yuanqing would make such an invitation to him?
this……
But who is Yang Miaozai? In a moment, he already understood Li Yuanqing's intention.
This is because Li Yuanqing wants to show his loyalty to the new emperor.
But Li Yuanqing actually wanted to drag him along, which was obviously to give him a great achievement.
Now that things have come to this, who in the world doesn’t know the bravery of Li Yuanqing and his Changsheng campers?
"Li Shuai, this, this is really..."
Yang Miaocai was a little excited for a moment and didn't know what to say. He knelt down respectfully in front of Li Yuanqing and said, "Li Shuai's kindness, wonderful talent, wonderful talent will never be forgotten."
For civil servants to kneel before military commanders, this is almost unimaginable in the history of the country.
But at this time, Yang Miaocai didn't care at all, because Li Yuanqing was not a normal general at all...
Li Yuanqing did not help Yang Miaocai up in a hurry, but solemnly said: "Thank you, brother Miaocai, for trusting Yuan Qing. However, this matter is different from before. This time Yuan Qing did not have a large army to penetrate deeply, but less than a thousand people."
We will use our troops to attack over long distances. If Brother Miaocai wants to go, Yuan Qing will naturally do his best to make it happen. But if Brother Miaocai doesn’t want to go, Yuan Qing will not force it and will arrange a fast boat for Brother Miaocai to return to the capital as soon as possible."
"Well?"
Yang Miaocai didn't expect that Li Yuanqing could speak so frankly to him. After a moment, he came back to his senses, but he was even more moved and said hurriedly: "Li Shuai, what do you mean, this time, you are
Do you want to go deep alone to demonstrate against Hou Jin?"
Li Yuanqing couldn't help but smile and nodded. It was much easier to talk to smart people, "Exactly."
"this……"
Yang Miaocai couldn't help but panic for a moment. Obviously, even though he was well prepared, he still didn't expect that Li Yuanqing would be so bold. This is really...
Li Yuanqing was not in a hurry and said calmly: "Brother Miaocai, please think carefully. It won't be too late to reply to Yuan Qing tomorrow evening."
But Yang Miaocai laughed and shook his head, "Li Shuai values a wonderful talent, how can he let Li Shuai down? Li Shuai is a world-famous general. Being able to follow Li Shuai and experience the battlefield in person is a great achievement."
What a blessing for talent!”
Hearing that Yang Miaocai agreed to the matter, Li Yuanqing was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly helped Yang Miaocai up, "Brother Miaocai's courage is beyond the reach of even Yuan Qing."
Yang Miaocai smiled and shook his head, "Miaocai's courage and wisdom are all the result of the confidence Li Shuai gave to Miaocai."
It is obviously not good to drink alcohol when attending a funeral for the emperor.
However, the two of them had reached an agreement, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed. Using tea instead of wine made their minds clearer.
The two continued chatting for almost two hours, and it was past time before Li Yuanqing returned to the military academy to rest.
Seeing Li Yuanqing's tall figure disappearing into the depths of the military academy, Yang Miaocai couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Now that things have come to this, how come he still doesn't understand Li Yuanqing's intention?
It's a pity that Yang Miaocai...
However, for a moment, Yang Miaocai shook his head and laughed.
With this trip to Changsheng Island, the traces of the Changsheng Camp on Yang Miaocai's body will probably never be easily erased.
