Nancheng camp.

In the tent of the Guoyong camp, Jia Heng sat behind the commander-in-chief, looking down at Song Yuan and other civil servants, as well as Cai Quan and other generals.

Ji Youcan generals Shan Ming, Xiao Lin, Shao Chao, Du Feng, guerrilla generals Qu Guang, Zhou Dong and others were sitting impressively, while the governor and fellow acquaintance Che Zheng said he was ill and was recuperating at home.

After Che Zheng made up for the vacancies in his salary over the years, he got Jia Heng's tacitly safe political promise, and basically put on a posture that he would no longer interfere with Guoyong's military affairs.

Seeing that he was knowledgeable and interesting, Jia Heng was not in a hurry to change people, otherwise, the Governor's Mansion and the Ministry of War of the Five Armies might wait for an opportunity to send generals to check and balance.

"Supervisor, the governor, Lu He, the general Gao Cong, and the guerrilla general Yang Zhihou, the four generals all handed in their resignations yesterday." Song Yuan said.

When Jia Heng was in Huayin County, he had persuaded several generals of the Guoyong camp to quit, but so far, only three generals responded to the call and handed in their resignations.

Jia Heng's expression was calm, and he said: "Bring it here, I will have a look."

Received the resignations of three people, to the effect that they were all old and weak, unable to bear the heavy responsibility, and asked to be dismissed and returned to the field.

And these three are all found to be seriously short-lived, especially Lu He, as the commander-level general of the Guoyong Camp, and Xia Mu, who is also the commander-in-chief, are almost the same culprits for the overwhelmed combat power of the Guoyong Camp. .

"Have someone deliver it to the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War." After Jia Heng read it, he took the seal of the governor and stamped it.

As a result, the Guoyong Battalion had two commanders vacant, so there was no rush to fill the vacancies.

As for the generals and guerrillas, there was no quota, and they can be supplemented or not.

In this way, the Guoyong camp now has four generals and four guerrilla generals.

Jia Heng said: "Commanders, the Guoyong Battalion will start a comprehensive reorganization of the army starting today. This is a new style of drill. The [-]th battalion of the new army will be named after Fenglin Huoshan, A, B, C, Ding, and Wu. This drill will be issued in a new style. The generals and school of the army battalion must memorize it by heart, and I will send the Central Guards to go down for random inspection in three days."

As he said, he handed over the books prepared in the past two days to Cai Quan, Qu Guang, Shan Ming and other generals.

They are all formation training from the previous life.

Start with these basic exercises first, and then perform complex queue conversions.

Even in the era of hot weapons, the queue formation itself is the embodiment of the army's combat effectiveness, queue switching, signaling, riding in parallel, coordination... these are all training content.

In the film Armageddon of later generations, the 36th Division played the role of the Huangwei Corps of the Guojun, and they began to work hard if they were not convinced. Military experts said that if they really wanted to get out of that queue, they would not be surrounded and wiped out in Shuangduiji.

The generals took the book, some frowned in thought, some looked at each other in blank dismay, and some stared at each other.

This is very different from the drills used to train Chen Han's soldiers today. For a while, several generals were suspicious, but due to Jia Heng's long-term prestige, they did not dare to question it.

Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "One battalion will be selected from all the battalions as a teaching camp, and I will personally train it."

He planned to train a battalion first, and then distribute it to the whole army.

Jia Heng looked at the three generals Du Feng, Shan Ming, and Xiao Lin at the side, and ordered: "Yuan Shenji, Shenshu, and the Third Battalion of the Five Armies will rectify military discipline and start drills from now on."

"Yes, my lord." All the generals responded in unison.

After the military discussion, all the generals received their errands and got busy one after another.

Jia Heng turned to look at Cai Quan, and said: "The children of the Jia family who came with me will also be included in the teaching camp. They will receive the same treatment as ordinary soldiers. There will be no preferential treatment, and even strict restrictions."

Cai Quan nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, my lord."

After arranging the military affairs, seeing Cai Quan hesitate to speak, Jia Heng frowned and asked, "What's the matter, hesitating?"

Cai Quan lowered his voice, and said: "My lord, some details of Wang Jieshuai's military strategy have been announced, and now other battalion leaders are discussing it. Many people will lose their military posts this time."

Cai Quan has also been in the Beijing camp for some years, so he knows some generals and schools at the top of the camp, and he has not lost contact since he was promoted to a guerrilla general.

"What's the matter?" Jia Heng frowned and asked.

Cai Quandao: "Right now there are just some rumors spreading. I heard that at Wang Jieshuai's birthday banquet yesterday, the old princes of Nan'an and Beijing from the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies came to congratulate him and mentioned the whole army."

As he said that, Cai Quan gave Wang Ziteng a strategy on how to weed out the old and the weak.

After Jia Heng listened, his eyes were gloomy, and he said slowly: "The method of military selection is not a problem. After the Beijing camp checks the vacancies, the remaining soldiers must be eliminated by [-]% to be effective."

There is nothing wrong with Wang Ziteng being so drastic. If it were him, he would do the same.

It's just that we need to do a good job in the aftermath, and beware of someone inciting the soldiers to mutiny.

However, Wang Ziteng may not be without support.

During this period of time, he learned some information from Shan Ming and Shao Chao, the two former members of the Jia family. After Prince Teng entered the Beijing camp, there were still two camp leaders who supported him. One was Li Xun, the governor of the Yaowu camp.

In the capital camp, the post of the governor is even more powerful than the governor to some extent, because he is in charge of daily affairs such as training and military orders.

There is also Pang Shili, a general of the Yangwei camp, this is a rare general in the Beijing camp, he is heavy and cautious, and the Shenshu camp under his command can be regarded as worthy of a battle in the Beijing camp. This is what Xie Zaiyi mentioned to him of.

As for Yue Qing, Yao Guang and others, their talents are a little mediocre, but it doesn't take much to help mobilize troops to suppress the situation.

"Wang Ziteng has the righteousness of the court in his hands, and Pang Shili's Yangwei Battalion cavalry suppressed the entire army. Yue Qing, Yao Guang and others led the troops to respond. The risk of soldiers mutiny is actually very small, because as long as the order talisman is confiscated, the position will be destroyed. The high-ranking generals in charge of training can't even mobilize a single soldier. They usually lead troops from thousands or hundreds of households. These people don't have the leadership of high-ranking generals, so they may not dare to make trouble." Jia Heng thought: "But There must be a lot of grievances for weeding out so many people, and no matter how instigated by someone with a heart, we are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case."

Thinking of this, Jia Heng looked at Cai Quan with a solemn expression, and said: "Let people pay attention to the movement of the soldiers of the regiment battalion. If there is any change, report it quickly."

No matter what, there must be no chaos in the Beijing camp. Once Wang Ziteng can't control the situation, his battalion will come forward to suppress and maintain the situation.

Cai Quan said: "Yes, my lord."

Jia Heng watched Cai Quan leave with a thoughtful face.

There will be mutiny or even disturbance in the Beijing camp. There will be no major disturbances, but the impact will be very bad.

"But now I can't say it in advance, because I haven't seen the signs yet. If you talk about good things that hurt people, you will be easily targeted. This is to block the gun for the prince." Jia Heng thought for a while, and planned to go to Wuchengbing Ma Si, no matter what, he now has two forces in his hands, and he can suppress the situation at critical moments.

When they came to Wucheng Bingmasi, Jia Heng summoned Dong Qian, Fan Yi, Xie Zaiyi and others to discuss matters in the back hall.

Jia Heng said: "Mr. Fan, people have recently stepped up their guard, closely monitoring the movement of the four city gates, and reporting to the soldiers of the Beijing camp."

Shenjing City consists of three parts: Waiguo City, Miyagi City, and Imperial City, while the [-]th Jingying Regiment Battalion is stationed outside the city, and soldiers will be regularly dispatched to defend the city by the patrolling censor.

And there is a strict order, without the order of the Ministry of War and the emperor's order, the army of the Beijing camp is not allowed to enter the city of Shenjing.

Apart from the Sanhe Gang, Jia Heng dispatched soldiers from the Guoyong Camp, and never sent troops to Shenjing City.

The public security in Shenjing City is in charge of Wucheng Bingmasi and Jingzhao Mansion, and the imperial city is guarded by internal guards and Longxiang Four Guards Battalion.

Puzzled on Fan Yi's face, he asked, "My lord, could something have happened?"

"Wang Jieshuai wants to weed out the old and weak in the Beijing camp, and there may be troubles. We are taking precautions in advance." Jia Heng said loudly.

No matter how chaotic the Beijing camp is, nothing can happen in Shenjing City.

Fan Yi's complexion changed slightly when he heard this, and he said, "My lord, I'm humbled to go and make arrangements."

Jia Heng hurriedly warned: "Don't leak this matter, just say that the New Year is approaching, and all departments must do a good job in preventing fire and theft."

Fan Yi nodded in agreement.

After Fan Yi left, Jia Heng turned to look at Xie Zaiyi and asked, "Commander Xie, how is the security in Dongcheng recently?"

Xie Zaiyi clasped his hands and said: "Although I dare not say that I don't pick up lost things on the road, and I don't close the house at night, but the common people live and work in peace and contentment, and each has his own time."

Jia Heng nodded, and said: "Do it first, wait until next year to see the situation, and then transfer you back to the Beijing Camp. Guoyong Camp is the time to employ people."

Letting Xie Zaiyi stay as the commander of Dongcheng City is indeed a bit overkill.

And there is another problem, that is, there is no place on it.

Xie Zaiyi looked excited, and said: "Thank you, my lord, I have long wanted to go back to the capital camp, even if I am under your lord's command, I would happily go there!"

At the beginning, Xie Zaiyi thought that Dongcheng was a good job, but after Jia Heng supervised the first army, and then led the army to suppress the bandits and returned, his thoughts became vivid.

Not to mention Jia Heng's secret plan, but said that in the Beijing camp, after Prince Teng released the army strategy, some military academies in the Beijing camp that were on the list of elimination became panic and rumors spread everywhere.

This is the same as the company's sudden layoffs, and people are panicking.

Of course, the key point is that in recent years, floods and droughts have not been harvested, and disasters have continued frequently. Many generals and soldiers in the Beijing camp rely on a share of Lumi to support their families. Soaring to the sky, you want to make trouble.

Not to mention that it was the prince who came, it was useless for Jia Heng to preside over it himself.

As for some high-ranking generals and schools, they also went around in private, because Wang Ziteng wanted to check the vacancies over the years and ordered them to make up for the corrupt salary.

For a while, some generals and schools began to secretly report the news, and the people in the Beijing camp were panicked.

But Wang Ziteng also said that he acted vigorously and resolutely.

On the same day, after lunch, at the Fenwu camp located west of Longshouyuan, the prince unfurled the military tent of Jieshuai, raised a large banner, and ordered the senior generals above the guerrilla generals of the [-]th Regiment Battalion to discuss matters in the military tent.

In the large tent of the Chinese army, the prince with his helmet on his head and his armor on top, with an indifferent face, sat in the center. Behind him, Fang Ji, the army chief, and Ji Min, who joined the army in the record room, waited on one left and one on the right.

General Ni Biao of the Central Guard Army led the soldiers of the Guard Army, and surrounded the camp of the Central Army.

Unlike the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the Central Guard Army often took charge of the Forbidden Army, guarding the Forbidden City, and the President and General, with high positions and powers. Today's Central Guard Army is more like a general who is the commander-in-chief.

For example, the commander-in-chief of the Jingying Jiedushi has his own guards by his side, and his rank is equal to that of a fourth-rank general. He leads three thousand soldiers, which is convenient for commanding the generals.

Yue Qing, Yao Guang, Pang Shili and others led the generals and schools of their troops, and followed them around.

Xue Pan also put on a Chen-Han military uniform at the moment. Beside General Ni Biao of the Central Guard Army, his big eyes like copper bells rolled around, looking at the generals in the military tent.

Wang Ziteng's indifferent eyes under his thick eyebrows wandered past the generals above the guerrilla generals of the [-]th Regiment Battalion, but he couldn't help frowning when he didn't see Jia Heng.

"It's fine if you don't come!" Wang Ziteng thought for a while, and sneered in his heart, but he didn't care.

At this moment, it wasn't just Jia Heng who didn't come, but also the commanders of the [-]th Battalion, and several commanders and Tongzhi Tuoji who were not here, and some of them were super-rank Dukes, and Wang Ziteng couldn't do anything about it.

Among the military tents, [-]% of the generals also came for a while.

Wang Ziteng said in a deep voice: "The generals listen to the order. I am ordered by the emperor to rectify the Beijing camp. Now I order the camps to follow Taizong's method of selecting elites from all provinces. The soldiers will be selected for one month."

The generals below heard the words and looked at each other in blank dismay.

Wang Ziteng said again in a deep voice: "Fang Ji, the master of the march, joined the army to check the rosters of the battalions, and checked the vacancies! The governor, Li Xun, the general Yue Qing, and the guerrilla general Yao Guang went to the camps as envoys to select the front. Soldiers! General Ni Biao of the Guard Army led 2000 soldiers from the Central Guard Army, and accompanied him to inspect the soldiers! Pang Shili, the general of the Yangwei Battalion, led [-] cavalrymen from the Shenshu Battalion under his command, and patrolled the battalions without any mistakes!"

As the military orders were issued one after another, the faces of the generals below were ugly, and their eyes gradually became gloomy.

This is for real!

But at this moment, inside and outside the big tent of the Chinese army was full of evil spirits, and they dared not disobey their orders, so they responded in unison.

Seeing this scene, Wang Ziteng was also a little happy. He softened his tone and said, "Everyone, this time the vacancy check is only for half of the silver, nothing else is involved. I hope you and the other generals will appreciate the magnanimity of the commander, so that we can do it ourselves!"

This is naturally based on Fang Ji's suggestion and borrowed from Jia Heng's "successful experience" in rectifying the Guoyong Camp.

But Wang Ziteng thought that he had done everything he could, and filled in the vacancies, just taking out a part of them to settle the soldiers, and the rest would be used to win over the generals who came to serve.

Of course, if someone comes to serve and actively cooperates with the army, he will also reduce it as appropriate.

After the generals were ordered to hand over the rosters of their troops, a vigorous campaign to reorganize the Beijing camp began.

At this moment, Xue Pan's big copper bell eyes were shining brightly, and he said to himself, "This is my uncle, who is even more powerful than cousin Heng."

Thinking of this, seeing that the guards around him each had their duties, my heart felt a little itchy, so I walked quickly to Wang Ziteng, imitating the appearance of some military generals, clasping fists, and said: "Uncle, do you have any orders. "

Wang Ziteng frowned and said: "In the army, everyone calls for an official position, and you should call me Jieshuai."

Xue Pan scratched his head and said with a chuckle, "Yes, uncle."

Wang Ziteng: "..."

Meeting such a nephew gave me some headaches, Wang Ziteng frowned, and said in a deep voice: "You can follow Master Fang to other camps to see how the vacancies are checked, and you can learn something."

Xue Pan was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Uncle, I'm going right away!"

Wang Ziteng thought about it, but he was not at ease, so he called a general, and said: "Jiqing, you take him with you."

"Yes." The general obeyed immediately.

Shenjing City, Ruyifang

This is a mansion with a vast area and beautiful trees. It is the mansion of Nan'an County King.

The pavilions and pavilions of the palace, the rockery and waterside pavilions, the atmosphere is just like.

As night fell, the luxuriously furnished study room was brightly lit and warm as spring.

Yan Ye, the king of Nan'an County, is sitting on a huanghuali wooden chair, with two young and beautiful concubines pinching his shoulders behind him. Although Yan Ye is nearly fifty years old, he is a dragon and a tiger, and only his aunt takes 23 rooms. .

At this moment, on the chairs not far away, there are sitting Liu Fang, the first-class son of the grandson of Duke Li, Hou Xiaokang, the first-class son of the grandson of Duke Xiu, and Shi Guangzhu, Wei Yuan, the former military governor. General Ma Shang and others.

"My lord, Wang Ziteng has started to reorganize the army. In the afternoon, the military order has been circulated to all the battalions to select the frontier soldiers." The military governor Qian Shi, who is also the son of Duke Xiu, the first-class son Hou Xiaokang, said in a low voice. .

The king of Nan'an County sneered, and said: "Let him toss about it first, the resentment is not big enough now, and now it is such a cold winter and the twelfth lunar month, with so many soldiers being laid off, there are bound to be some troubles."

Liu Fang hesitated for a while, and said: "My lord, our people..."

"Don't act rashly, this king now feels that maybe some people won't be able to sit still without our people moving." Nan'an County King interrupted with a gloomy expression.
