Chapter 1132 Each has a future
Li Xin thought about this matter early in the morning. First of all, the situation in the capital is basically stable now. With the existence of firearms and the 100,000 Southwest Army, there is no force in the whole world that can shake the city's defenses. Therefore, the capital is The hundreds of thousands of banned troops outside the city seemed a little dispensable.
It is true that these forbidden troops are also a huge military force, but at present they cannot be used by Li Xin, or they cannot be used by Li Xin at all. In this case, it is better to send some support to Ye Mao and the northern Xinjiang.
The two battalions of the Imperial Army originally had a total of 16 Zhechong houses. Before the city was guarded and some other losses were added, there were only about ten Zhechong houses left. Four of the ten Zhechong houses were transferred out, that is to say, the outside of the city was to be taken out. These banned troops were transferred out for a half.
In this way, there are only six Zhechong houses left in the forbidden army outside the city, and they can no longer pose any threat to the southwest army. Although they cannot quench their thirst from afar, the news of the forbidden army going north can intimidate the Yuwen tribes in the north and bring suffering to the north. Ye Mao, who was struggling, relieved some pressure.
Hou Jingde and He Xiong looked at each other, then looked at Li Xin at the same time, and asked at the same time, "What did the governor mean, do you want me to lead the troops north together?"
"There are only four Zhechong residences, where do you need the two princes to go together?"
These two people had previously led a battalion of the forbidden army. Even before Li Xin entered Beijing, they also occupied a pivotal position in the imperial army. It was too overkill for the two of them to take four Zhes to the palace.
Li Xin said with a smile: "My opinion is to ask General He to lead people north to support Chen Guogong. As for Brother Hou, who was injured before, his injuries were not very good, so he continued to lead the rest of the forbidden army to station outside the city. Of course, If the two of you have any opinions, you can say them as much as you can, when the two brothers came to the city, they helped me a lot, no matter what you have to say, you can speak out."
Hou Jingde was silent for a while, and then he said: "Captain, the wounds on the last general's body were all healed before he entered the city, and now he has recovered. In terms of body and bones, I am better than Brother He. I also want to be a year or two younger, according to my opinion, it is better for me to lead the troops north and let Brother He stay in the capital."
Li Xin looked calm and looked at He Xi: "What does General He mean?"
He Song was a person with a dull personality, and he didn't talk a lot. He said silently, "The general doesn't have any opinion on who will go to the north, but it's better to be faster. I'm afraid that Ye Gongye won't be able to last for too long. already."
His voice was a little low: "My old man's eldest son has gone with him, he can't even be the eldest grandson..."
He was a general from the Ye family, so naturally he cared more about the Ye family than Hou Jingde. If Li Xin hadn't shown him the seal of the Duke Chen's residence, he probably wouldn't have taken the risk to help the Southwest Army enter Beijing.
Li Xin nodded silently and said, "If that's the case, then it's up to me to arrange, General He, you will start reorganizing your soldiers tomorrow, and strive to lead your troops northward within two or three days. Later, I will greet Shangshutai and prepare for you. A good document for deploying troops."
Having said this, Li Xin paused, then fumbled for a seal from his sleeve, handed it to He Siong, and said, "This is the seal of Duke Chen's mansion that Ye Mao had previously brought to me, and I also invited General He. Help send it back to Ye Mao. In addition, after General He leads his troops northward, if the border pass is not lost, General He may wish to lead his troops to guard at Jimen Pass first. The imperial court's document that allows Ye Mao to recruit troops is already on the way, in the north of Zhen Before the army is rebuilt, General He will temporarily guard the Jimen Pass for them."
He Xiong took a deep breath, took the seal with both hands, and looked a little excited: "Don't worry, the Governor, the last commander will definitely live up to the trust of the Governor."
He was a veteran of the Zhenbei Army himself. Later, he suffered some injuries and returned to the Duke Chen's mansion as a general. At this time, it was naturally the best thing to have him go to reinforce Jimen Pass.
This old general, who was already over fifty years old, didn't even want to eat after getting the seal, so he stood up directly. He bowed his hands deeply to Li Xin: "Captain, the last commander will go to order troops and horses. When the documents from the imperial court arrive tomorrow, the last commander will immediately raise troops to the north!"
Li Xin smiled dumbly: "Don't be in a hurry at this moment, General He sits down and finishes dinner before leaving?"
"One hour sooner, Ye Guogong would be less dangerous."
He Xiong's voice was heavy: "Please forgive me the rudeness of the general."
Li Xin shook his head helplessly.
"Since General He is in such a hurry, then I can't force it to stay. General He will prepare the staff. I can guarantee that tomorrow morning, the documents of the Shangshutai, the Ministry of War and the governor will be delivered to General He. There will never be any delay in General He's trip."
He Xiong bowed his head deeply to Li Xin: "The last general... retire."
Having said that, the General He got up directly and exited the private room. After leaving the restaurant, he didn't even return home, and ran directly to the forbidden army camp outside the city.
Hou Jingde looked at He Xiong's retreating back, shook his head and sighed: "It's too unfair for the governor. Why can he lead the troops north, and the last commander will stay in the capital with the forbidden army?"
"In terms of friendship, I've known the Great Governor for longer than him."
Li Xin picked up the wine glass, toasted Hou Jingde, and said with a smile, "General He is the general of the Ye family. Let him go to the north to be closer to Ye Guogong."
Hou Jingde raised his head and took a sip of wine, then said carelessly, "My old man was born and died with Ye Shuai back then, isn't he closer than his He Siong and Ye family relationship?"
Hou Jingde's father was a vanguard general under Ye Sheng's command. Because of his outstanding military exploits, he was named a lifelong marquis. It is also for this reason that when the Hou family arrived in Hou Jingde's generation, their official fortunes were not very good. Hou Jingde was still a left-handed general of Yulinwei until he was forty years old. It's just Yulin Weizhong's general.
Li Xin picked up the jug, filled Hou Jingde with a glass, and said with a smile: "There's no need to complain like this, bro, you can rest in the capital for a while, and take good care of the forbidden army. It's no worse than the military power in the north."
"When the younger brother takes full control of the capital, he will never treat the elder brother badly."
Hou Jingde picked up the wine glass and touched Li Xin. Then the tall man rolled his eyes and asked Li Xin, "Does the governor want to reorganize the Imperial Army and the Southwest Army?"
Li Xin gave him a surprised look.
"How do you know that dude?"
"I've also been an official in the capital for most of my life, so I can guess some."
This **** face raised a glass of wine and toasted Li Xin, and then hehe smiled and said, "Great Governor, your eldest nephews in my family have been idle all these years, but there is still no way out..."
Li Xin frowned slightly.
Hou Jingde himself was in charge of the Imperial Guard. If he simply arranged the personnel of the Imperial Guard, he didn't need to have access to his place, then it was very likely that he wanted to let the Hou family join the Southwest Army...
As for Shenjiying, it has only just begun to be done, and Hou Jingde has no way of knowing.
Hou Jingde is also a person who knows how to look at his face. Seeing that Li Xin's face is wrong, he quickly continued: "Don't worry, the Governor, I have no intention of letting them enter the Southwest Army, but I heard that the capital is now re-establishing the Three Imperial Guards, the Governor will see , can you let those rascals in my family…”
"Advanced Yulinweili...Ask for an errand?"
