Chapter 248 The Fourth Brigade
Everyone looked at Li Chaosheng and wanted to know what the second reason Li Chaosheng said was.

Li Chaosheng pondered for a while, then opened his mouth and said: "The White Pole Army actually owes us Han people, and Qin Liangyu is also a remarkable woman."

Hearing this, everyone understood Li Chaosheng's meaning. The county magistrate was too upright, and those who achieved great things did not care about trifles. They are in the way of the county officials. Since they are in the way, they should be moved away.

Even if it's right to use a knife against them, it's no big deal, after all, when they stand in front of Lan Tian, ​​they are already guilty.

For an excellent emperor, bureaucrats do not care about good or evil. They should have higher pursuits and greater ambitions, so there is nothing wrong with being cruel.

Everyone felt that Li Chaosheng was immature and lacked the heart to become an emperor.

But on the other hand, they feel that the county lord in front of them is the most benevolent monarch they have ever seen, and it is precisely because the county lord did not do anything for success that they feel that their county lord is more humane, and it is more at ease to follow such a county lord.

Anyway, it's a wonderful emotion.

Li Chaosheng is not going to take care of the dozens of big messes in Sichuan, and he can't take care of them. Li Chaosheng is still too weak to disturb such a large area, so Li Chaosheng's idea is to let Zhang Xianzhong make trouble.

Especially Qin Liangyu and the Baigan Army, they all shed blood for the people of Ming Dynasty. Many of their relatives lost their lives in Liaodong and died in the hands of the Tartars, so Li Chaosheng did not want his troops to be contaminated with their blood. Not even a drop of blood.

"Notify Shi Dalei's brigade to build defenses around Xingping, don't take the initiative to attack, this time Zhang Xianzhong's purpose is not to fight Lantian desperately, so don't fight them desperately yourself, just delay."

"Yes."

Guzi received the order and immediately went to the telegraph room to notify, and soon the telegram was sent to Shi Dalei's barracks.

Shi Dalei is currently in the command room with his deputy brigade commander Luo Heita, head of the first regiment, Li Debao, head of the second regiment, Niu Ben, head of the third regiment, Zhao Fusheng, head of the fourth regiment, and the army secretary sent by Lantian Academy The officer and others discussed the combat strategy.

The role of military clerks is similar to that of political commissars. Their daily work is to record the daily work of brigade commanders and regimental commanders, and to give political and ideological lessons to soldiers.

They are not under the management of the generals who accompany the army. They are all under the control of Yang Shubai, the deputy minister of military affairs and also known as the political commissar. Yang Shubai manages all the secretaries assigned to the army.

The army also strictly abides by it. The chief general is in charge of the military, and the clerk is responsible for daily life, and records the daily behavior of the commander. At that time, it will be summarized at the annual summary meeting of the Ministry of Military Affairs.

This restricted the army's commander to a large extent, and Shi Dalei was able to become the only general with a foreign surname among the four major brigades in Lantian County, mainly because of his excellent ability to understand firearms.

And the many firearms combat methods invented, overwhelming the crowd, so he was promoted by Li Chaosheng, but everyone was the commander of the regiment at the beginning, now you have become the commander of our brigade, and some people are not convinced.

So Li Chaosheng made two preparations again. First, he promoted Luo Heita to deputy brigade commander. This was to balance his voice. Second, he sent his most trusted Li Debao to be the commander of the second regiment.

In fact, according to Li Debao's qualifications and status, he is enough to be the leader of the brigade. After all, his qualifications, he was the first squad leader of the third class when Li Chaosheng first established the security team. Over Li Debao?

Secondly, his status, he is a general with the same surname as the county official. In terms of status, you are noble. Besides, Li Dezhen, who has the same qualifications as him, leads a brigade alone. Who dares to say that Li Debao has insufficient qualifications and status.

But even so, Li Debao is still honestly serving as the head of the second brigade in Shi Dalei's brigade. In terms of status, he is not as high as Luo Heita. This time, who dare to say that Shi Dalei is not qualified to be the brigade commander of the fourth brigade.

Li Debao has recognized it, who of you guys dare not to recognize it?
In fact, Li Chaosheng contributed a great deal to this matter. When Shi Dalei was about to be promoted to be the head of the Fourth Brigade, there were constant rumors and rumors outside. Shi Dalei also asked Li Chaosheng to resign many times, saying that he could not do it.

However, Li Chaosheng knew that Shi Dalei was capable enough, but he was under too much pressure from the outside world, so Li Chaosheng made an appointment with Shi Dalei, and told him a story about self-recommendation, but he didn't understand, and finally Li Chao pointed at Shi Dalei angrily. : "I am optimistic about you, you have to do a good job for me, don't embarrass me, as for the rumors outside, I will solve it for you, get out!"

This time Shi Dalei understood, and ran away in a hurry. After he ran away, Li Chaosheng found Li Debao. Li Debao was happily preparing to be the head of the fourth brigade. Head of the brigade.

But when he arrived at Li Chaosheng's place, Li Chaosheng looked at Li Debao and said, "Debao."

Li Debao was stunned. His county lord hadn't called him that for a long time. He usually called him by his first name Li Debao, so he looked at Li Chaosheng and called tentatively, "Uncle Chaosheng."

Li Chaosheng nodded, and let Li Debao sit down. Li Chaosheng asked Li Debao: "Debao, Lantian County has developed to this stage, what is the next step?"

Li Debao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and said: "To overthrow Daming, uncle, you will be the emperor."

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng nodded and said, "Yes, to be the emperor, do you think it depends on our old Li family to be the emperor?"

Li Debao was taken aback when he heard this, and then slowly shook his head. He is no longer the Li Debao of a few years ago, but now his vision is very wide. He knows that all the talents of the old Li family add up to manage a province in Shaanxi. It's a big deal, if you want to win the world, the old Li's family can't do it.

"Old Li's family doesn't have so many talents, it won't work."

Li Debao said so, and after hearing this, Li Chaosheng said: "Yes, it won't work, then should we reuse people with foreign surnames?"

Li Debao nodded: "It must be reused."

"But now some people don't allow me to use a foreign surname."

Li Chaosheng sighed, and Li Debao became angry: "Uncle, I'll kill him!"

Li Chaosheng waved his hands and said, "Sit, sit, they are all my brothers, who are you going to kill?"

Li Chaosheng said with a sigh: "Debao, Lantian military power is very important. Li Chaolong and Li Chaohu are both seniors with senior qualifications and status. They can't do without rewards. They must be allowed to form a brigade alone."

"Your brother Li Dezhen has the same qualifications as you in every aspect, but he is the older brother, and your uncle and I have appointed him a brigade commander. Logically speaking, the leader of our Lantian Fourth Brigade should be yours."

"But in this way, all the top officers of our army in Lantian will have the surname Li, which will give people a feeling of cronyism, which is not conducive to our attracting talents. Shi Dalei, you know that since we started using flintlock guns in Lantian, he began to use them. Studying firearm tactics, it can be said that his firearm tactics are the most proficient among all our generals."

"So I want to do this for him, the head of the Fourth Brigade."

Li Chaosheng looked at Li Debao and said, Li Debao looked at Li Chaosheng after hearing this, clenched his fist and said: "Uncle, you are right, Shi Dalei is capable."

Li Chaosheng looked at Li Debao and said: "But now the outside world hates him as the commander of the Fourth Brigade, which makes uncle very headache."

After hearing this, Li Debao said: "Uncle, I understand. I can't compete with him for the head of the Fourth Brigade. What we want is a great cause. We can't just use the Li family. Uncle, transfer me to the Fourth Brigade." , I will be the deputy brigade commander, no, I will be the regimental commander, I will set an example, and I will see who dares to refuse!"

Li Debao looked at Li Chaosheng and said, his eyes were sincere without any affectation, Li Chaosheng looked at Li Debao and said: "It's just that I wronged you so much."

After hearing this, Li Debao smiled and said: "Haha...what is wronged or not, I was originally a stinky hunter, and I didn't stop after eating the last meal. Now I can have today's achievements because of you, uncle, for our foundation. , for the sake of uncle, I am willing to be a regiment leader and take the place for Shi Dalei."

It was precisely because of this conversation and Li Debao's sacrifice that the Fourth Brigade was supported. At that time, those who were dissatisfied saw Li Debao coming to be an ordinary regiment leader, and they were all dumbfounded. They also saw Li Chaosheng's support for Shi Dalei degree.

Then he calmed down, and after drinking, someone brought up the old story again, complaining for Li Debao, but Li Debao gave that person a big mouth: "You know der~ I am willing to use you bunch of grandchildren to complain to me." If you don’t agree, just obey me honestly, otherwise I won’t use the brigade commander, I’ll take care of you first.”

Li Debao's words spread, and since then no one dared to make irresponsible remarks, even Luo Heita, who had always been dissatisfied with Shi Dalei, didn't say much.

Therefore, a strange balance has been formed in the Fourth Brigade. Shi Dalei is the coach, front, Luo Heita represents the side with different opinions, and Li Debao is the final referee.

Later, there was a word from the army that Debao was the head of the regiment, that is to say Li Debao is the head of the regiment, you guys are arguing, who of you thinks you are better than Li Debao and stand up.

At the Xingping frontier command post, Shi Dalei drew a few circles on the map and said: "Defend these places well, Zhang Xianzhong's troops are nothing to worry about, and they cannot enter Lantian."

Luo Heita looked at the map at this time and said: "I agree with this point, but the brigade commander, let's just guard. What's so great about him, Zhang Xianzhong, who dares to send troops to Lantian. If you want me to say, let me take people up to charge and beat him up. Dizzy, unplugging his front camp."

Shi Dalei said: "If the enemy's situation is not clear, don't act rashly."

Luo Heita said: "Our Lantian is not something that thieves like them can invade as soon as they say they can. They don't have a long memory if they don't hurt them. I suggest taking the initiative to attack."

After hearing this, everyone knew that the brigade commander and deputy brigade commander were on the fence again. Now the brigade commander's opinion is to stick to it, and these dangerous places are firmly defended. Zhang Xianzhong can't break into Chang'an County under the jurisdiction of Lantian.

But what the deputy brigade commander said is not unreasonable, thieves need to be attacked when they come, this piece of loyalty, even cats and dogs dare to come to Lantian to fight the autumn wind, with the current firepower of the brigade, they can easily teach them to be human, let them know who they are with a burst of flintlock guns It's dad, we want to take the initiative in the war.

So the two got into a fight and refused to give in to each other. The rest of the people also looked at the two of them without speaking, and some even looked at Li Debao who had been silent.

Luo Heita looked at Li Debao and said, "Brother Debao, what's your opinion?"

After hearing this, Shi Dalei also looked at Li Debao, Li Debao raised his head and said: "I have no objection, what you both said is very reasonable, but our second regiment only listens to the brigade department's orders."

As soon as Luo Heita said this, his face was not very good-looking, it was obvious, the brigade, who is in charge of the brigade?Shi Dalei, although he is the deputy brigade commander, he usually stays in his regiment headquarters.

Li Debao clearly supported Shi Dalei, and Luo Heita was not surprised by this kind of thing, but stood aside a little unconvinced, and at this moment Li Debao took a look at Shi Dalei and said: "But don't make too much noise, The attack should be defended on the spot, and the division headquarters must be responsible, the division commander probably has received our report, and the order is about to be issued."

After hearing this, Shi Dalei said: "That's right, we still have to listen to the division headquarters, but before the division headquarters gives orders, let's not have any friction with Zhang Xianzhong's troops for the time being."

Hearing this, Luo Heita turned his head aside, Li Debao looked at the strategic map silently, and the other two regiment leaders also looked at the map without speaking. At this moment, the clerk responsible for receiving telegram information said: "There are ordered."

Everyone looked over after hearing this, and then heard the ticking of the telegraph, and the clerk listened carefully with earphones, and cracked it.

Soon a complete information came out.

"Decree of the division: Zhang Xianzhong's trip is not necessarily for Lantian, but to investigate the road to Sichuan, don't worry about him, stick to the border of Lantian, Zhang Xianzhong will not cross the line, and will not fight with it."

The clerk read the information, stood at attention immediately, and passed the telegram to Shi Dalei. Shi Dalei glanced at Luo Heita, and Luo Heita said: "Since it is an order from the division, let's execute it."

Immediately after Luo Heita gave the note to the brothers around him, the big guys looked at the note, all silent, Li Debao took a last look at Shi Dalei, Shi Dalei said: "Okay, since the division asked us to stick to it, we Just stick to it."

Speaking of this, Shi Dalei came to the map and said: "The defense order is issued below, Luo Heita."

"exist."

Luo Heita stood up and saluted, although he was not convinced by Shi Dalei, but when Shi Dalei gave the order, he still strictly followed the military salute, which was respect for the army and Li Chaosheng.

"You stick to Height No. [-], build fortifications, and don't go hand in hand with Zhang Xianzhong."

"Yes."

"Li Debao."

"exist."

"You stick to the No. [-] mountain forest, relying on the mountain forest, and give full play to the advantages of firearms. If they dare to come, you will beat them and run away."

"Yes."

"Bull run."

"To!"

……

Orders were issued one after another, and the front line of Xingping began to build defenses against Zhang Xianzhong.
