Chaos in Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 24: Chief Art

Views:

There are many subordinates who want to follow Qin Meng.

But the commander had to obey the strict orders.

In the Dazhai Lieutenant Colonel Field, piles of bonfires were gathered, and there were barbecues on them. Dazhai officers and soldiers were sitting around them. Everyone gathered here except for the guard post.

Qin Meng ordered Qi Yuan to send out two silvers, one by one in the center of the crowd in the school field, to the personnel to be transferred.

The person who was named replied in front of Qin Meng, standing in a row.

Qin Meng handed out a hundred taels of silver to each of them, and then said loudly to the officers and soldiers: "Received an order from the prince and commander, these brothers will rush to serve in his ministry tomorrow. Tonight, let us send us off in a grand manner Brother leave!"

After all, Qin Meng took the lead and applauded warmly.

The officers and soldiers followed Qin Meng closely, and also responded with warm applause.

When the applause faded away, Qin Meng asked the people who had been transferred to return to the ranks of this sequence, and smiled: "Brothers, this general has no silver. These silvers are all rewarded by the prince. That is to say, this belongs to him. All my brothers. But, I divided the money from my brothers to these brothers, do you know why?"

The officers and soldiers were dumb, and this was not easy to answer. If you want to say that the chief can divide it casually, then the chief will take more and more, but it will be nothing. But it should be said that it should not be given to those who are leaving. I can't say this.

Qin Meng looked at the faces of the people and said solemnly: "This general always pays attention to what everyone is convinced. The reason for giving these brothers so much money is because they behaved well! Think about it, the big guy. Don't you? I slumped to the heels when I saw your face. I didn't have any appetite for eating. Who wants it

The officers and soldiers of Houyazhai looked at each other, and they all saw it from each other's eyes. The general made sense.

"It's because of good performance that the prince mobilizes and uses it. The general said on the first day he came to Hou Yazhai, whoever has done the best, he will be rewarded. The prince rewards us, should we also reward the outstanding performers? Because this is not just these. The glory of brothers. It is the glory of our Houndya Village!"

The officers and soldiers not only understood, but the sense of pride also came up, and they couldn't help but slapped their hands.

Suddenly Qin Meng was not so serious, and shrugged and smiled: "Brothers, the brothers who have been transferred, but we cultivated in Houndstooth Village, it is like we have raised a big girl who is like a flower, and we are here. I can’t get it by myself, it’s cheaper for other guys. But you get angry, get angry, get angry, get married, right? Give a dowry, isn’t it an exaggeration?"

Boom, all the officers and soldiers roared with laughter. Those officers and soldiers sitting next to the person who was about to be transferred unscrupulously molested the brother who was about to be transferred.

"Hey, hey, look at you one by one. You really want to treat your brothers as babes? It should be a joke, and there is business. These brothers are gone, leaving a lot of vacancies. This general is already Tell me to transfer my brother and recommend someone who is available to me."

The original noisy scene suddenly fell silent. This involved a lot of promotion. Don't look at it as a petty official. As long as he can go up, his status, status, and salary are huge gaps.

At this moment, Qin Meng changed into a serious look.

"I can try to transfer someone recommended by my brother, that is to say, it is only acting as the chief executive. As for the formal appointment, it depends on the actual ability. Let’s put it this way, the brothers from Houyazhai, everyone has the opportunity, as long as they meet If it meets the standards of this general, if it can be done, and if it can't be done, hurry down."

The audience was silent. Suddenly, someone shouted: "General, then what is the standard for you to appoint an officer? Is it to see who is not afraid of death in war?"

Qin Meng smiled and said, "This brother is a good question! No matter what this general does. It's a principle that has been repeated more than a hundred times, and the big guy is convinced. Let's just take me as an example. Why? Can I be a guard at Houndstooth Village?"

Everyone was quiet for a while, and someone said: "Of course it was appointed by our prince."

"Hey, the prince’s appointment, this is a fact. But you only know one, but you don’t know the second. In terms of heads-up, I may not be able to beat many of our brothers in Dazhai, but the prince still uses me, why?"

"The general's head is so good." The officers and soldiers are getting closer and closer to Qin Meng, and there are no big scruples. Someone shouted directly.

Qin Meng pointed in the direction of his voice: "This brother, speaking openly, he is a sensible person at first glance. This general, that is the general knowledge of astronomy, the knowledge of geography, five hundred years before, five hundred years later. This is heaven. Flying, running underground, jumping in the grass, swimming in the water, there is nothing I don't know. I don't have this ability. Can the prince use me?"

The officers and soldiers began to laugh, and one of them said loudly: "General, your head is so good that it is true, but you say that, isn't it, is it too good to blow?"

Qin Meng shook his face and pointed to the man and said, "You, stand up for Lao Tzu, don't think about it, Lao Tzu has already seen you, hurry up, stand up."

The soldier shuddered, thinking that Qin Meng was evil, and stood up tremblingly.

Qin Meng suddenly laughed: "You are really a talent, even this general is good at bragging. That's right, you have to be bragging, and you have to bragging to make your brothers happy. Otherwise, the marching battle is extremely boring, day by day, brothers follow you like a funeral, who is still in the mood to fight?"

When the officers and soldiers think about it, it makes sense. Since Qin Meng came to Houyazhai, there has indeed been a lot of laughter, so he did not hesitate to give Qin Meng applause.

The soldier who stood up became more courageous, and said loudly, "General, who can't brag? Could I be bragging and can be a commander?"

Qin Mengxie smiled and said, "Hey, brother, don’t let the wind flash your tongue. Do you think it’s easy to brag? Well, come, come, come to me, as long as you can blow your voice with great affection, let the brothers We are satisfied, and reward you with ten taels of silver!"

The officers and soldiers immediately roared, the brother next to the man. Several stood up, pushed him away with all hands and feet, and then everyone yelled in a tacit agreement: "Go to the general, blow, blow, blow..."

The soldier arrived at Qin Meng's side, and when he was standing in Qin Meng's position, his legs trembled a little when facing so many brothers.

Qin Meng smiled and said, "Everyone understand, this brother, maybe he hasn't passed through this scene. In this way, this is the first brother to come over. In order to commend the first one who dares to come to this general and challenge bragging, I will give you a guarantee first. Silver, blow it well, and cash it out with the remaining rewards, okay?"

"Okay!" The officers and soldiers liked this kind of booby-racking things. The blood in their chests was mobilized, and they slapped their hands as if they were fighting.

Once the soldier was booed, his stage fright was even worse, seeing his usual brothers screaming at this time. There is a blank in the brain, let alone bragging, just talking, there are some problems.

Qin Meng motioned everyone to be quiet, and smiled and said to the soldier: "Brother, the eldest daughter gets on the sedan chair, it's the first time for everyone. So, make a good preparation. As long as you blow it out, you will have five taels of silver. Come, Blow one, brothers, stop booing, listen to this brother!"

The soldier had a reaction in his mind, and he waited for a while. He thought about the five taels of silver that Qin Meng had promised, and gritted his teeth: "I, I am as strong as an ox, and can carry heavy objects. I, I..."

The officers and soldiers couldn't bear such unscrupulous bragging.

"Look at what you call it? Don't say it's compared with the general, it's compared with me, it's all in the sky, go down, go down!"

This voice was universally recognized by everyone, and they laughed and drove him off.

"Hey hey hey, don't have the ability to joke at others. Have the ability to take two steps! It's the reward, ten taels of silver, come on, don't you want such a good silver, don't you want it anymore?"

The officers and soldiers think about it and feel that they should not go up. If you want to talk about bragging, no one usually blows it, but it is really like General Qin Meng, who is so unreliable and feels natural and natural. This is not that capable. just forget it.

Qin Meng no longer entangled in this topic, and asked Qi Yuan to announce the rewards for individuals who had been good for a long time, and then solemnly talked about the next topic.

"In the selection of a grassroots officer, in addition to being respected, you must be useful! This general is in charge of Fangzhai, in his free time. Everyone is a brother, and you can say anything. But in wartime, let you have it with me. The fateful friendship, if you violate the general order, you will definitely be beheaded!"

Speaking of this, Qin Meng pointed to Xie Yun: "Your sir, during the war of the week, he flew into the heavy cavalry and saved my life. In ordinary times, if he is in trouble, this general will spare his life to help. His. But if the war, let alone violated the general order, the task for you is not completed, you will still be decapitated!"

The school was silent, and Qin Meng said severely: "If you attack the enemy’s village, let you lead your troops to open the gate of the village. As a result, this general leads most of the attack, but you can’t get the gate of the village, and all the brothers will be in danger. Among them. The attack is not good, what's the crime? Cut it! I can't make fun of all the brothers' lives because of one brother!"

This topic is very heavy, everyone bowed their heads and said nothing. The battlefield discipline is so ruthless. Think about the possibility of killing the robe who lives and died with him on the battlefield. Who can easily pass the psychological barrier

"This general still said that he must convince everyone to do anything. The selection of grassroots officers is based on this standard. They can fight, be bold, useful, and absolutely enforce battlefield discipline. Of course, they must be able to blow to attract brothers. Poor and happy."

Qin Meng cleverly guided the topic to a relaxed rhythm. Seeing the officers and soldiers' complexions eased, he laughed and said: "Break for so long, I have forgotten the business, let’s eat! Tonight, I must leave. The brothers are with me, and the married daughter, after all, hasn't been out of the cabinet yet."

The officers and soldiers were immediately engaged in eating and drinking. Qin Meng looked at everyone with some relief. This was his capital.

Suddenly, when Qin Meng turned his head, he inadvertently discovered that in the outermost area on the left side of his back, there were more than a dozen people around a fire and eating barbecue. But no matter how you look at them, these people did not look like Dazhai officers and soldiers. People around me feel a little out of place. (End of this chapter)
