The next morning, Qin Mu got up early in the morning and practiced archery in the backyard.

He's going to the border soon. It's inevitable that Gongma Kung Fu will come in handy. Therefore, he has been practicing more frequently in recent days. In terms of martial arts, Qin mubai felt that he was second rate at most, and he was in the same class as Yin Yang and Yu Wenhong Tai. However, there is still a long way to go between Qin Shubao and Yuchi Jingde.

As for Xue Rengui, the "God" of the peak, let alone. Qin mubai always thought that Xue Rengui might be a little bit more powerful than his old man. It's just that he is used to modesty and seldom shows it deliberately. But just because of this, Xue Rengui always gives people a sense of mystery. It's hard to wonder how strong his martial arts are.

It's been more than a year since Qin Mu's white belt was on his body. It's still brand new and has never seen blood. Today, I was taken out to practice the firing technique of the Qin family Taiji gun several times. I suddenly felt that my arm was sore.

"Still need to practice!"

When he finished, he was sweating. After bathing and changing clothes, he was ready to have breakfast with his mother and sister. When I got to the front hall, I found that there were guests in the courtyard of the front house. There was a man in casual clothes and a hat on his head. He was walking in the forest garden enjoying plum blossoms.

Qin mubai looked at him. Isn't that Li Ji?

Li Ji also saw Qin mubai and waved to him from a distance. Qin mubai quickly stepped forward and arched his hand: "when did my uncle come? It's really a pity to welcome him from afar! All the servants in this house are crazy. I didn't give a notice! "

Li Ji laughs: "don't blame them, I don't let them pass on. I heard you were practicing martial arts, so I walked between the gardens without disturbing you. "

In addition to Qin mubai, there were only women left in the family, such as mother and sister, and no one was convenient to welcome them. Li Ji was in the garden for an hour. Qin mubai felt sorry and invited Li Ji into the hall. He was invited to breakfast.

If you don't have to go to the three treasures hall, Li Ji will come here alone in the early morning. There must be something wrong. After tea and dinner, Qin mubai asked, "my uncle condescends to come to the door. What's your opinion?"

Li Jiwei said with a smile, "there are still several things to discuss with you."

"Please give me some advice."

"I don't deserve it." Li Ji said with a smile. "In recent days, I have been busy with the dispatch of troops by your majesty. Marquis Junji, Duke of Lu state, has led his troops to the south of Songzhou to resist the enemy. Another passer-by, Ma, went to Lanzhou. He was almost ready. In the near future, he will be ready for food, grass, armour and equipment. Your majesty has given me a secret opportunity to tell you that the commander who led the army to Lanzhou was Qin mubai, right? "

"Yes, your majesty has indeed given me an oral instruction, but the order of the imperial court has not been given yet." Qin mubai said truthfully.

Li Ji nodded and said, "it's estimated that this is what happened in the past two days. You have to be prepared. My purpose here is to discuss with you about the selection of the general. "

"General?" Qin Mu Bai lightly twisted brow, "how to say?"

"Lanzhou will become an important military town and barrier. It can't be compared with the General Governor's office. It's about the future of the Tang Dynasty's Guanhe River and military and national plan!" Li Ji said, "therefore, I have to listen to your opinions on the selection of generals. The former governor's office of Lanzhou is just an ordinary military town. Your father takes the post of governor, and there are few effective people under him. Now your majesty has sent you here, which can be regarded as adding a powerful arm to him. But it's not enough just to have your father and son. The governor's office of Lanzhou will soon be expanded. Originally, there were three prefectures under its jurisdiction, namely, LAN, he and Kuo. Now it is possible that Liangzhou will also be designated as governor. Under the rule, the number of troops will increase from more than 20000 to nearly 50000. The former lower governor's office in Lanzhou will also be transformed into the middle governor's office. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the number of capable personnel. "

"Oh? What talents did my uncle choose? " Qin mubai asked.

Li Ji laughed and said, "these people will work with your father and son in the future. Of course, we have to ask your opinions first. I've selected some people, and your majesty has appointed some. I'll let you know now - take them and have a look! "

Having said that, Li Ji came up with a list of officials to be added to the governor's office of Lanzhou this time.

The central governor's office is a relatively large military base, and the highest officer is the governor, rank three. The most important three deputies are Biejia under zhengsipin, Changshi under zhengwupin, and Sima under zhengwupin. In addition, there were soldiers, FA, Zhou, Shi, Cang, Gong, and several other military officers of Cao Shen, as well as other officials such as Shi Ling, Cheng, Zuo, doctor, assistant professor and so on. The system of these officials is quite similar to that of the local governor's office. However, because the dududufu was more inclined to run the army, there was a military establishment of Fuwei. If, according to Li Ji, the number of troops under the governor's office of Lanzhou will reach 50000, there will be at least 20 military offices and 20 Zhechong captains in general.

In addition, the troops of Lanzhou dudufu are subordinate to zuoweiwei. When Qin Shubao was first put into use, he was appointed as the commander-in-chief of Zuo Weiwei and the governor of Lanzhou. That is the highest military officer worthy of the name. Most of the officials, especially the military officers, under the rule of the dudufu also held the posts of the government guard and the Dufu at the same time.

Qin mubai took a look at the personnel list given by Li Ji. The officers of the former Zuo Weiwei had not changed much, but the position of the governor's office had changed greatly. First of all, Sima and Changshi were replaced. Qin mubai didn't even think of the two people who had changed -- Xue Wanjun and Xue wanche!These two brothers are outstanding in martial arts and military achievements. They have a great reputation in the army. Besides, the current rank of the officers is not low. The general who is divided into zuotun Wei and Youwu Wei is one of the twelve guards who are the same as Qin Shubao. In addition, Xue wanche is also Li Shimin's brother-in-law and a relative of the emperor.

It can be said that if the emperor had not recently reactivated Qin Shubao, a veteran of the founding of the country, now the prestige and reputation of the Xue brothers are far better than Qin Shubao!

In addition to serving as commander Shi and Sima, the Xue brothers turned Benwei's senior general officer into a school inspector. They also served as general Zuo Weiwei (a total of two people, deputy to the senior general). That is to say, their ranks were not reduced, they were still the third grade (Senior General of school inspection), and their official rank was reduced to a rank of general, and they served as the deputy of senior general Qin Shubao.

Due to the increase from the lower governor's office to the middle governor's office, Lanzhou has added a new assistant official, Biejia, which is only second to the governor's office. He is the highest civilian official assisting Qin Shubao in managing people's livelihood.

This candidate is empty.

Other civil and military officials are not very important. They are basically chosen from the officials of the government and the prefectures of the imperial court.

Qin mubai was silent for a long time.

"What are you thinking?" Li Ji was not in a hurry to drink tea and asked with a smile.

"Uncle, you are not an outsider. I don't know one thing. I want to ask for your advice. " Qin mubai said.

"Say it."

Qin mubai did not hide it. He said: "as we all know, the Xue brothers have made outstanding achievements in recent years. Now, his majesty has asked the Xue brothers to be my father's deputy How can they be convinced? If the governor's office fails to make peace, it will be bad. "

Li Ji gave a smile. It seems that Qin mubai's worries have been expected. He said: "when your majesty makes such an arrangement, our ministers should be considerate. After all, Lanzhou is related to the western half of the Tang Dynasty. It is a barrier and a gateway to the country. If you don't choose the right people, you can't do it. If you choose all the right people and hold them together, it may not be what your majesty wants to see. "

Li Ji said so. Qin mubai's heart suddenly realized!

Yes, kings are suspicious!

Lanzhou is such an important military town. With 50000 troops in hand, it directly faces the naked Guanzhong area of the Tang Dynasty. Controlling the silk road is related to the plan of dominating the western regions. It can be said that it can become a country of its own. If there is any change here, the risk to the Tang Dynasty will be millions of times greater than that of Tubo!

The Xue brothers started from the founding of Zhenguan. It is not the same faction as the old generals of Qin Shubao's palace. They don't contradict each other, at least they fight secretly and they are not convinced. Li Shimin's intention to play this hand is very obvious, that is to make Lanzhou strong, while there are two obvious factions.

The emperors resent factionalism most, but they are most willing to use it. There are contradictions between the officials. That is convenient for the emperor to adjust and control. If it's all a gang, it's a gangster. If this is the case, Lanzhou, a "self-made country", will only know the governor, but not the emperor.

Think of this layer, Qin mubai also relieved smile. There is no such thing as the imperial mind. It can not be said that Li Shimin is narrow-minded, and the emperor has his own difficulties. only!

So he didn't break the casserole to ask the question to the end. He turned away from the topic and said, "then why is the job of driving vacant? Well, there are also the Yifu generals of Zuo Weiwei. Zhonglang, Zuo Lang and Youlang are all vacant. "

"Your Majesty deliberately ordered this arrangement. I think it's your duty to drive. " Li Ji smiles, "your father is a governor, but he and Xue's brothers are from the military. He is not good at writing. You are the most important addition to the three of them. "

"That's interesting." Qin mubai said with a smile, "I don't want to drive. I'm still on top of the two long history and Sima of Xue brothers. They're going to have to hold back. "

"There's nothing to hold back. They run the army, you run the people, and each has its own division of labor. " Li Ji said, "moreover, in the army, the two generals can stand alone. But you're just a pro Xun of the Yi family in charge of Zuo Weiwei, with your father as a great general. "

"That is to say, I may be Lanzhou Biejia, who also serves as Zhonglang General of Zuo Weiwei's Yi mansion, right?" Qin mubai said.

"Very likely." Li Ji nodded, "but in the end we have to wait for the emperor's decision."

Qin Mu nodded his head and gave a smile, which made him understand. The emperor thrust Xue brothers into the governor's office of Lanzhou. In the governor's office. These two men are almost equal to Qin mubai and assist Qin Shubao together. In the army, these two men are divided into general posts, which are nominally subordinate to Qin Shubao, but they are in charge of military power, which is enough to compete with Qin Shubao.

Qin's father and son and Xue's brothers are interwoven with each other. At that time, it will be hard for us to fight without friction. However, these four people are all people who have the bottom line, vision and ability to do great things. They will not miss the state affairs because of private fights. From this point of view, Li Shimin's arrangement is exquisite. The Imperial Palace and mental skill can be said to be fully displayed."The purpose of asking you is for you to recommend two powerful generals to serve as the left and right generals of Zuo Weiwei's Yi family, that is, your right and left deputies in the army. Together with the commander-in-chief, I will honor the general of the Chinese army. " Li Ji said so.

Qin mubai gave a bitter smile: "who can I recommend? Or uncle Shi has the final say.

"Mubai, don't worry about it." Li Ji said with a smile, "if you go to Lanzhou, there will certainly be marching and fighting. Is it difficult for you and your father to take the lead in the battle? No way! Therefore, it is necessary to have two handy Deputy generals to take on the important task of attacking. The Xue brothers are a pair of fierce generals. But you and your son can't handle them well. When you get to the frontier, it can be fatal. Do you know? "

Qin Mu nodded and said, "but I really don't have the right person! It's not only a fierce general, but also something we can send at will. Such a person There is no such thing

"Why not?" Li Ji smiles mysteriously, "isn't there several people over there?"

"Ah?" Qin mubai listened. He shook his head immediately. "They are the people of King Wu!"

"They are also from the imperial court!" Li Ji's understatement.

When Qin mubai heard this, he could not help but be a little alert in his heart. What does Li Ji mean by this? He wanted me to dig people from King Wu? Such things have always been the most inhumane and hateful. With Li Ji's tact and insight into the world, how could he encourage me to do such stupid things?

On second thought, Qin mubai thought that after returning to Beijing this time, he and Li Ke had thought of it. We need to keep our distance and draw a clear line. Li Ke has become more and more low-key. He stays at home all day. He even refuses to host the engagement ceremony for Qin mubai and Gao Yang, openly showing that they have conflicts.

Think of this layer, Qin mubai is about to understand: This is mostly Li Ke's meaning!

He is now an idle prince who has returned to Beijing. What else can he do to raise so many generals and soldiers in the mansion? As soon as these people are idle, they can't tell when they are going to be dug up. After all, it is a matter of one sentence that the imperial court should employ people to transfer him under the command of King Wu. In the imperial court, I don't know how many people want to cut Li Ke into a bare pole.

Instead of waiting for people to dig corners and fold their wings, it's better to give up sending these people to Qin mubai!

Moreover, the Emperor may also intend to reduce the talent around Li Ke. After all, he is a little concubine. He has the power of Wanji, Xue Rengui, Yuwen Hongtai, Yinyang and so on. Where these people are put, they are all first-class talents. Now they are all in the Wu palace. Let alone the king of Wei, the prince and others who are not at ease, Li Shimin will also feel eye-catching after seeing too much!

"My uncle said so. I do remember Qin mubai said with a smile, "two of the three generals in the Wu palace were recommended by me. That is Xue Rengui and Yuwen Hongtai. If these two people are transferred to the command of Zuo Weiwei's Yi mansion, I will be able to dispatch them easily. "

"Then let them do it!" Li Ji didn't say much, so he made the decision directly.

It seems that this is tacit understanding.

"By the way. Those Baiqi who used to follow you to Xiangzhou have also been transferred back to Baiqi camp a few days ago. " Li Ji said, "Your Majesty's meaning is that these people follow you to travel all over the world. When we get to the border and go to the battlefield, what we want is this kind of brotherly care. Your majesty said that you are his old man's son-in-law. These hundred cavalry are still under your command. They will serve as military officers of the Yi family, such as the rank of the Secretary, the Marquis of the central government, and the commander of the division. They will guard the central army with you. "

"Good!" Qin mubai was a little overjoyed. The thirty brothers were all the most intimate. With their company, they had to be confident.

"But Pang Fei didn't come back." Li Ji said, "he will take over the post of Xiangzhou Duwei you left behind and continue to stay there. He's a good young man. He's very strong. Leng is an ordinary pawn who grows up to be a Duwei. Mubai, I didn't expect you to have a good sense of talent and a good way of training! "

"Ha ha! My uncle made fun of me Qin mubai was also very happy. Pang Fei is a real success now.

"That's about it. That's it." Li Ji is always crisp and neat. After that, he folded the list and put it in his arms. Then he got up: "I'm gone. I don't need to see you off. If you have made preparations, you will leave Beijing in a few days. "

"Thank you, uncle!" Qin mubai still saw him off all the way and sent him out of the house.

Li Ji turned over and left.

Qin mubai paced in the courtyard, thinking about it: compared with the governor's office in Lanzhou, Xiangzhou is really a table of wine. When you go there, you have to face the real war and the real enemy. Both externally and internally, the situation will be more complicated. Moreover, it also shoulders the military and national plan of the Tang Dynasty, which can also be said to be a millennium plan related to the whole territory of China!

OK, new challenge, here we go!
