The morning meeting ended, and everyone was still immersed in shock.

After everyone had almost left, Qi Shancai looked at Shen Tang disapprovingly and said, "My lord, this move is too risky."

What's too risky?

Shen Tang planned to let the newly surrendered Qiucheng's old troops stay behind.

Not only Sibao County, but also part of Longwu County.

As for Mingfeng County, we don't have enough energy, manpower and time. We can't take care of it for the time being. We just sent people there to take over. The specific management measures have not been released yet. I guess we will have to wait until the Dragon Slaying Bureau is over before we can take it seriously.

Planning and construction.

Shen Tang said: "I know what Yuan Liang is worried about. Are you worried that Qiu Cheng's old men will take the opportunity to form a group and occupy the magpie's nest?"

Qishan nodded unabashedly: "Yes!"

It's not that you can't reuse generals and sergeants, but you need enough observation time to ensure that they are indeed loyal and reliable and have no disloyal intentions. Otherwise, they will be completely defeated if the battle goes wrong in the front and a fire breaks out in the rear.

"Qiu Cheng's body is still cold. It's indeed risky to use them again at this juncture, but -" Shen Tang didn't take Qi Shan's worries into consideration, but she also had her own plans.

"Firstly, they only have the power of governance and supervision but not military power; secondly, I have revealed the national seal at the morning meeting. Most of the time why people choose to betray is because the benefits of loyalty are not enough. If they betray, what will happen to them?

There are only two roads in front of us, one is self-reliance, and the other is defecting to other forces."

"Self-reliance? They can't stand."

"Design to other forces? Who can they choose? In other words, which force nearby is more suitable than me?"

After considering the above, Shen Tang came up with this cool operation.

When Qi Shan saw that she had carefully considered it and not made a decision at once, he stopped blocking her. After all, Shen Tang was the lord and the person at the helm of them. Liu Jia and the others left early.

A place to quietly wait for news of prayer.

Dai Qishan relayed Shen Tang's words.

Everyone is completely relieved.

They were relieved, but all the old members of Qiucheng were uneasy and had different thoughts. They didn't have any evil intentions at the moment. They were adapting well to the new lord Shen Tang, but there would be too many old people around Shen Tang who couldn't stand it.

think.

If the old people think too much, the new people like them will be easily ostracized, or even secretly rubbed into their shoes. How frustrating is that?

They were not sure what Shen Tang meant.

Are you really ready to reuse them?

Or a trial?

Someone suggested: "How about asking Luan Gongyi?"

Shen Tang's preference and importance for Luan Xin is obvious to everyone, and he may know something. But as soon as he brought it up, he was opposed by others: "Go to Luan Gongyi now? Did you forget to embarrass him at Wen Yangong's mourning hall?"

?”

Some of them were present that day.

"Those are two different things and cannot be generalized."

Luan Xin's performance in the Battle of Xiaocheng was indeed disappointing. What happened to them asking a few words in front of Wen Yangong's mourning hall? If Luan Gongyi really had difficulties, and he didn't tell him, how could he expect outsiders to turn into roundworms and burrow into his stomach to make things clear?

?

"People may not think so."

Finally someone stood up: "That's it, I'll go."

He was not present that day, and his relationship with Luan Xin was okay on weekdays.

Luan Xin didn't seem surprised by his arrival, and said bluntly: "Don't think too much, it's not a test, just do your part."

The visitor was surprised: "Master, are you really relieved?"

Luan Xin said: "If you doubt someone, don't use it; if you employ someone, don't doubt it."

Furthermore, they didn't know Gu Chi's way of being a scribe, and they didn't know how to take precautions in advance. Naturally, their thoughts were right under their noses. If there was really a problem, Luan Xin would have been screened out as early as Gu Chi.

His reply was undoubtedly a reassurance for Qiu Cheng's old subordinates, and his favorable impression of Shen Tang also increased - this lord is courageous!

Noon, official office.

Shen Tang is still considering the specific lineup.

Although she decided to let Qiu Cheng's old subordinates look after the house, it would not work without a trustworthy confidant at home. She raised her hand, and the national seal turned into a golden dragon pattern scroll with a white background. When she opened it, the two ends were decorated with [文] and [武].

】Tie rope with two-character button print.

She scanned the names on the roster.

"Oh, it's really hard to decide."

As for the candidate, Chu Yao is actually the most suitable.

Whether it is governing or stabilizing the overall situation, he is like a stabilizing presence. Shen Tang can rest assured if he leaves the rear to him. However, it is not good to always let Wuhui look after the house. She is hesitant, and there is news from outside.

Duke Yang asked to see him.

"Let him in."

When Mr. Yang came in, Shen Tang had just put away the roster.

The roster turned into the imperial seal again and sank into her palm.

"I have met my lord."

"No need to be polite."

Mr. Yang knew that Shen Tang didn't like to beat around the bush, and he himself was an upright and straightforward character. After seeing Shen Tang politely, he expressed his intention. It was not a big deal. He wanted his daughter Yang Ying to find a corps commander or something in the army.

position.

Shen Tang's hand holding the pen paused.

Looking at Mr. Yang with a slight solemnity: "The matter is not difficult. My concubine is originally a tiger girl. If she joins the army, she will be regarded as inheriting her father's legacy. Gong Xiqiu is half of her teacher, so the students she teaches will naturally not be the same.

By the way, does Mr. Yang know what this means? The sword on the battlefield has no eyes, and she is an ordinary soldier. If she has any shortcomings, she will never come back."

Mr. Yang nodded: "I know."

Shen Tang added: "She is still your only blood relative."

She thought that Guild Yang would enjoy a few days of tender love between father and daughter.

"I know, but this is Ying'er's decision." Yang Gong's smile looked a little bitter, but also a little proud, "Just as she couldn't stop me from wearing armor when I was young, I can't stop her now at my old age.

Stay away from the army."

"Maybe this is fate."

He remembered that his daughter Yang Ying had reluctantly hugged his skirt when she was young, and her childish voice was full of attachment and worry. At that time, even though Yang Ying was reluctant to let go, he still had a hard heart and pushed his daughter into the arms of his old wife.

.Now he can also taste the worry they felt at that time. Even though he was reluctant to give up, but facing Yang Ying's determined eyes, he finally chose to see Shen Tang.

"Mr. Yang is still far from the word 'old'."

Yang Ying wanted to join the army, and Shen Tang naturally wouldn't refuse.

There's only one thing -

"My daughter is not weak in strength, but the corps commander is a bit overqualified, isn't it?" This is not just a question of how many people are under your command, but also about living conditions. No matter how senior the corps commander is, he can only sleep.

Camp Datongpu.

A dozen or twenty people were crowded together.

As spring plowing ends, the temperature gradually warms up. This battle will most likely drag on for a long time. In midsummer, the temperature is high, the tents are poorly ventilated, and various smells are mixed, not to mention sour and refreshing.

Mr. Yang, a father, doesn’t even think about his daughter?

Yang Gong replied: "No."

In fact, he also has his own considerations.

He didn't ask for a higher position for Yang Ying. Naturally, he wanted her to start from the bottom and work her way up step by step.

The more solid the steps, the more stable the walk.

Even my father said so, and Shen Tang stopped trying to persuade her.

Put Yang Ying into the combat unit.

Yang Gong brought the good news to his daughter. Yang Ying was wiping her sword at home. Although brave warriors can make all kinds of weapons, many people still have the habit of wearing swords. This sword is the same as the sword of Wenxin scholars.

The significance is greater than the practical application. Parents, teachers and other elders usually help with the preparation. It takes a long time from collecting good forging materials to grinding and shaping.

The sword is the king of hundreds of soldiers, and the sword is the commander of hundreds of soldiers.

The sword in Yang Ying's hand was not tailor-made for her, but for her younger brother Yang Xiong. After all, no one could have imagined that a woman would one day be able to practice. It was released half a year before the destruction of Xiaocheng, and it was waiting for Yang Xiong to practice and meet it.

Blood cuts.

Unexpectedly, as fate would have it, this knife was buried under the ruins for several years until Yang Ying revisited the place where she came from and dug it out and saw blood. Now, this knife belongs to her. Seeing this knife with the word Yang Xiong engraved on it
