Chapter 311

However, no matter how Hong Chengchou tells others, others don't believe it, because others suspect that this is an excuse for his inability to recover Fengyang, but an excuse to shirk his responsibility.

If you don't recover Fengyang yourself, others recover it, and you still rely on others to break your business, this is a typical excuse. What Hong Chengchou said, he has made arrangements with his subordinates, which is a very bad excuse. Which general doesn't prepare more than a dozen plans for war? Who will only prepare a plan, unprepared, this is just empty talk.

Therefore, Hong Chengchou's statement is destined to be ridiculed by the local people and despised by them.

What's more, when Liu Bu's troops entered Fengyang, they had strict discipline and made no mistakes. They took the initiative to order the soldiers to stand guard on duty and maintain the military discipline very well. However, after Hong Chengchou's troops entered the city, they inevitably made some petty thieves and bullied the people. In fact, these things are very normal in the general army, Hong Chengchou restrained the military discipline and the troops well. If it was someone else, it would not be petty theft or sneaking around, but direct murder, robbery, rape and so on.

Hong Chengchou's troops are better than other troops, and the military discipline is quite strict, but compared with Liu Bu's Liu family army, he is far from it. After comparison, the people naturally have a shot in their hearts, and they look down on Hong Chengchou's troops and Hong's character.

This is Fengyang, but Zhongdu Fengyang is the emperor's hometown, and everyone is the emperor's hometown. Many people can have a relationship with the royal family. For example, on the surface, they have contacts and relationships. In fact, each of them has a backstage supporter and can have a relationship. They are really not afraid of him being an official.

Hong Chengchou's military discipline is so, which makes the local people even more unhappy. Hong Chengchou discovered this problem at the first time, which makes him more curious about Liu bu. A young man with no qualifications has fought such a war and made such brilliant achievements. At the same time, he can also have such strict military discipline, This made him curious.

How good would it be if such an army belonged to its own command and obeyed its own command? However, Liubu's attitude has been very clear, that is, he will not obey him or obey him. He Liu buning is willing to listen to orders under the account of a eunuch, nor under the command of Hong Chengchou.

I still want to be independent and stand on my own mountain. I'm not a passer-by. I'm doomed not to get there. Hong Chengchou is sighing. Lu Jiude is forgetting his righteousness when he sees money. Doesn't he know the attitude of the imperial court towards these warlords? That is to use them to fight, use them as consumables and consume them.

If they don't consume them, they will eat the imperial court. Can't the warlord scuffle at the end of the Tang Dynasty explain the problem? Generals are not trusted. They must be suppressed vigorously.

Seeing that he wanted to control the main force of the Liu family army and use them to suppress the exiled bandits and consume them as consumables, who knows that Lu Jiude actually took over the hot potato and gave them a platform.

Doesn't he know the danger of doing so? This is extremely dangerous.

Liu Jiajun, in particular, has both local power and military power. If the two are combined, they will become a local bully and will be a big deal.

As a famous official of the emperor, Hong Chengchou has many problems to consider, but the key point to consider is that he must calm the wandering bandits for the emperor and eradicate their internal hidden dangers one by one. These rising family forces and warlord forces are also within the scope of their defense. If the imperial court does not eradicate these forces, it is difficult to say what consequences they will face?

Lu Jiude claimed to be a famous minister, but he did such a stupid thing. Hong Chengchou was very distressed. If he could not hold Liu Jiajun and force him to fight the rogue bandits and fight a decisive battle with the rogue bandits this time, they would grow up slowly and get out of control in the future.

So Hong Chengchou put down his identity and took the initiative to visit Lu Jiude's house, hoping to persuade Lu Jiude to deliver Liu Bu's army to him, let him find and eliminate the exiled bandits, and hinted at the possibility of this aspect.

What kind of person is Lu Jiude? A corrupt official is afraid of death and extremely greedy for money. If Hong Chengchou comes to talk to him with a large amount of money and food, maybe he will consider that Hong Chengchou is asking for money from him empty handed. How is this possible?

Lu Jiude had Liu Jiajun in his hand, but he got a lot of money for him.

However, if Liu Jiajun is handed over, it is estimated that there will be no income. You know, Liu Jiajun is a rich army. Other armies ask for money and important people from the top. Like Liu Jiajun, there are very few who can bribe money and food from the top.

If you don't hold it in your own hands, you may have to pour money and food into the army with some other troops. You still expect them to send money to you. It's impossible.

So Lu Jiude refused Hong Chengchou's proposal without hesitation. He said: "our family has received the emperor's will to escort Zhang Xianzhong to Beijing in person. This matter is of great importance and there can be no mistake. Our family has decided to send the most elite Liu family army to escort him to Beijing and accept the emperor's review."

Hong Chengchou said to him, "father-in-law, you only need a few hundred people to escort Zhang thieves to Beijing. Why do you need to work an elite army?"

Lu Jiude didn't like to hear this. He said, "there are only a few hundred people. What should we do in case of an accident on the way? Do you take the responsibility? If you and Hong are willing to write a military order to ensure that there will be no accident on the way, and you are responsible for anything, the prison will listen to you."

Hong Chengchou is also an old oilseed in officialdom. How dare he assume this responsibility? Because this kind of responsibility is fatal, but it will kill people, so he dare not promise.

What I fear most is that after he agrees, someone will deliberately make trouble and play tricks, and then he will bear great responsibility.

Hong Chengchou felt angry. He was the elite of the five provinces under the emperor's command, trying to wipe out the roving bandits at one fell swoop. This was a great pressure and the expectation of the emperor. Since he took office, he was also conscientious and ready to plan at any time. He wanted to relieve the great trouble for the emperor.

However, today's roving bandits have become a climate and have become a major problem. This can not be easily eliminated and can be easily dealt with. Therefore, they are very worried. Even they think that they may have the hope of paying the emperor.

Hong Chengchou knew that this matter was of great importance, so he always asked the emperor to give him greater rights, give him more money and food for elite soldiers, and strive to hit the enemy in one blow and annihilate the enemy as much as possible.

Therefore, his Garrison in Xuzhou is not blindly greedy for life and afraid of death, but prepares enough strength and troops to give a fatal blow to the roving bandits when the time is ripe.

And he didn't sit there completely in Xuzhou. He was still training.

Hong Chengchou has led the army for many years. Of course, he knows the problem of Daming now. The main problem of Daming now is that these troops are weak. Many soldiers are garbage soldiers with hundreds of thousands of troops in name. In fact, his combat effectiveness is not as good as the thousands of elite soldiers of Liu bu.

Therefore, generals everywhere are forced to train their home Ding army. In fact, this is also a method of frustration under compulsion. In fact, at least they can maintain the combat effectiveness of the army when the number is small.

Hong Chengchou had the same idea, that is, he was going to train a family Ding army of about 5000. These family Ding soldiers were selected by him from his own troops, and he had to use a lot of money and food to feed them. He was going to train them as well as the generals of major military towns. He was going to train them for three or five months. After training them into elite soldiers, With 5000 elite soldiers in his hand, he dared to directly attack the roving bandits and wipe them out in one fell swoop.

Liu Jiajun should be a family soldier, which is exactly what Hong Chengchou wants. If he can control this family soldier in his own hands, he can have thousands of elite troops. With these thousands of elite troops, he can wipe out the exiled bandits in one fell swoop.

Who knows that this army was also beyond his expectation, that is, they easily defeated Zhang Xianzhong's army under Anqing City, captured Zhang Xianzhong alive, and more importantly, directly recovered Fengyang, the capital of China.

Now something even more ridiculous has happened. That is, Hong Chengchou hopes to take over this army as his core strike force, and then go all out to attack the roving bandits. Maybe he can solve the problem of roving bandits that has plagued Daming for decades before the end of this year.

Who knows, at this time, when he was key to dealing with the roving bandits, the eunuch Lu Jiude transferred his scheduled main force and used such an elite force to escort him to Beijing.

Liu Bu is full of bad water. He is very cunning. That is, he rushes over when he sees the good. When he sees that he has made the good, he will stop at once and refuse to I contribute to the imperial court at all

Hong Chengchou was sure that Liu Bu would be given the title of commander in chief even if he was stingy and stingy.

But it is estimated that this is all. The emperor's reward to him must hope Liu Bu to continue to work for the imperial court and the royal family, but Liu Bu knows one thing very well, that is, the reward of the emperor is so little, so he has no interest in continuing to work for the royal family.

Liu Bu thought of this, and Hong Chengchou thought of it, so he wanted to detain Liu Bu here, and then let his Liu family army go out to fight for their court. It's best to let him die with the wandering bandits, which is in line with the meaning of the court.

Who knows that Lu Jiude is like a rat shit, which has forcibly broken his pot of good porridge.
