Bring Hokage to Datang

dong dong dong~~~

Drums as dull as thunder rang out in the camp, resounding throughout the sky. After hearing this sound, countless generals in armor quickly strode towards the central tent.

After three tongs and drums, all the generals had arrived in front of the commander's tent.

There are forty or fifty people in total, but only a dozen are qualified to enter the commander's tent.

"See you, Your Highness." A dozen generals in bright armor knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully to Li Chengming, who was sitting at the head.

Looking at the dozen people in front of him, Li Chengming raised his eyebrows slightly, then raised his hand and said, "No need to be polite, just be more polite."

"Thank you, Your Highness." More than a dozen generals expressed their thanks again in unison, then stood up, and then automatically divided into two rows and stood at the bottom.

The two rows of generals were divided into two rows. The one on the left was led by Xue Wanche. Behind him stood seven people, all of whom were Xue Wanche's former confidants. On the other side, the leader was Luo Ning, and behind him stood five people. They were also talented people selected from the East Palace guards.

These people can be regarded as Li Chengming's team, but it is obvious that they have automatically begun to divide into factions.

Li Chengming didn't care about this situation, and was even happy to see it happen.

As a superior, he is most afraid that the people below him will get together. If Xue Wanche and Luo Ning wear the same pants like brothers, then Li Chengming will have a headache. After all, if the people below are monolithic, then when the time comes Is it him, the county king, who has the final say, or is it Xue Wanche and Luo Ning who have the final say?

When watching some palace dramas in the past, Li Chengming had always wondered why the emperor knew so and so who was a traitor and still trusted him.

However, after he came to Datang and took power himself, he realized that this was what the superiors called the way to control their subordinates.

"Xue Wanche" glanced at the people below, and then Li Chengming spoke.

"The general is here," Xue Wanche took a step forward, cupped his fists and bowed.

"You deserve the greatest credit for being able to annihilate the invading rebels this time. Due to the danger of the Holy Emperor, I now temporarily order you to be the vanguard general of the rebellion, leading troops and being rewarded with coins and pieces of silk." Li Chengming looked at it After glancing at Xue Wanche, he raised his voice.

This official position was actually Li Chengming's own idea, because now he is only a county king. According to the rules, he is not qualified to entrust his subordinates, especially generals like Xue Wanche.

Before Xue Wanche joined his staff, he was already a fifth-rank military general in the imperial court, and he was also awarded the title of Chariot and Cavalry General. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, official positions above the fifth rank required the emperor to speak before he could be conferred.

Li Chengming was originally just a county king, and he originally had the slogan of "clearing the emperor's side." If the so-called name is not correct, then the words are not smooth, and he cannot grant rewards at will.

However, he also knew that if he wanted the horse to run, it was impossible not to give it grass to eat.

Since you have won the battle, you must be rewarded. Otherwise, even if people are loyal to you, if you are too stingy, you will eventually distract people and alienate the general.

People don't follow you to fight with their heads up, not just for the so-called loyalty, they also need to eat.

It is precisely because of this that he came up with this reward, and he also added a temporary reward without fulfilling the facts.

"General, I would like to thank His Highness for the reward." Upon hearing this reward, Xue Wanche's face flashed with joy, and then he knelt down and thanked him.

"Get up, as long as you do good work in the future, I will be generous with your rewards." Li Chengming waved his hand, then turned his eyes to Luo Ning aside and said, "Luo Ning"

"I'm humble." After hearing Li Chengming's words, Luo Ning quickly stepped forward, lowered his head and clasped his fists.

"This time you led the people to intercept the rebels, which is also a meritorious service. I will temporarily make you a guerrilla general, lead eight thousand troops, and reward you with coins and pieces of silk," Li Chengming said.

"Thank you for the reward, Your Highness." After Luo Ning heard Li Chengming's reward, although he was a little younger than Xue Wanche, he was still very excited and knelt on the ground to worship.

"Okay, get up." Li Chengming waved his hand, then looked at the other people behind them, first behind Xue Wanche, and said, "Dong Guoli, Dong Ning, Ren Gu, Wang Wenxian, Jiang Xing, Shan Hua, Zhao Ziwei”

"The last general is here." Upon hearing his name being called, the seven people behind Xue Wanche quickly stood up and knelt half-kneeling with clasped fists in worship.

"Yesterday's battle, you all contributed equally to Dong Guoli, Dong Ning, and Ren Gu. I temporarily appoint you three as school captains and reward them with three thousand silks; Wang Wenxian, Jiang Xing, Shan Hua, and Zhao Ziwei, I temporarily The four of you will be appointed as deputy captains, and you will be rewarded with two thousand pieces of silk and continue to serve under Xue Wanche's command." Li Chengming said calmly.

"Yes, Your Highness, thank you for the gift." The seven people thanked him together.

"Bi Daxing, Wu Kui, Qi Bin, Fu Zhijie, Mi Tongji" Li Chengming looked behind Luo Ning again.

"I beg you," the five people behind Luo Ning came out together and knelt down to worship.

These five people are different from Xue Wanche and others before. They are from the previous Donggong Suwei. They are also five of the twenty-six remaining guards. They have been with Li Chengming since he crossed over.

"Although you are my personal guards, I will never forget your contribution. You are equally indispensable in suppressing those rebels this time. Bi Daxing, Wu Kui, and Qi Bin, I temporarily order you three to be the school captains." If you hold the post, you will be rewarded with three thousand pieces of silk. Fu Zhijie and Mi Tongji, I will temporarily appoint you two as deputy captains, and you will be rewarded with two thousand pieces of silk. From now on, you will all be under Luo Ning's command," Li Chengming said again.

"Thank you for the gift, Your Highness." The five of them also expressed their thanks in unison.

Li Chengming nodded slightly, and then said, "Wang Hu"

"I'm humble," Wang Hu, who was on the side, came out of the queue and stood in front, half-kneeling and bowing.

"The king will temporarily order you to be the commander-in-chief of Yixunyi Guards School, and you will be rewarded with ten thousand coins and five thousand silks," Li Chengming said.

"I humbly thank you, Your Highness." After hearing his reward, Wang Hu bowed and bowed.

Luo Ning, who was on the side, couldn't help but have a look of envy on his face after hearing Wang Hu's reward.

Although the reward Li Chengming awarded him was much higher than that of Wang Hu, Wang Hu would later become the captain of the Imperial Guard, which meant he would always be by Li Chengming's side. In this position, he could be said to be the person Li Chengming trusted the most.

"Wang Hu, I order you to select a hundred elite men from the army to form the king's personal guard. From now on, the safety of the king will be left to you." Li Chengming looked at Wang Hu again and said.

"Yes, Your Highness, I will die even if I am humbled," Wang Hu said loudly, clasping his fists.

Li Chengming nodded slightly, then looked at the people in the tent and said, "Xue Wanche, Luo Ning"

"The last general is here" heard Li Chengming calling him again, Xue Wanche and Luo Ning stepped forward and clasped their fists to obey the order.

"Each of the officers and soldiers who have not arrived will be promoted to a higher level, and the rewards of money and silk will be awarded by you two." Li Chengming said.

"Yes, Your Highness, I would like to express my gratitude to Your Highness for the reward on behalf of all the generals." They both clasped their fists and bowed.

Li Chengming nodded slightly, and then said, "One more thing, I will only give you three days to recruit and train the soldiers you just gathered. After three days, I will see a well-trained army. I understand. "

"Yes, Your Highness, I will obey your orders," everyone in the tent shouted with fists in their hands.
