Chapter 184: Great Governor
…
After attending the complaint meeting, Wu Jie, Wu Lin, Yang Zheng, Guo Hao, Yao Zhong, Tian Sheng, Li Shiyan, Guan Shigu, Wang Yan (Xiao) and others walked to their tents with excitement.
Wang Yan said: "I always thought that those political cadres were useless. I didn't expect that they were quite good at it, which made me cry so loudly. I never cried like this when my father died."
Yao Zhong said: "The Jinwu Army exudes a strange force everywhere and an evil force, which is different from our Western Army."
As soon as Yao Zhong started this conversation, Guan Shigu immediately agreed: "Indeed, the people of the Jinwu Army are all stern, and they have to walk out of the flowers even if they walk."
While speaking, Guan Shigu learned from the soldiers of the Jinwu Army and got up.
While walking, Guan Shigu said, "What's the use? Can you win the enemy by walking like this? Or what?"
Yang Zheng shook his head and said, "You, read more books when you are fine. Don't you know what Sun Wu is doing to train female soldiers? General Cai asked the soldiers to leave like this to train the soldiers' obedience."
Guo Hao also said: "Yes, don't look at them being funny now. If they really go to the battlefield, they are absolutely obedient dead soldiers. They will hit whatever they point to, and they are obedient beyond your imagination."
Guan Shigu widened his eyes and said, "So powerful?"
Wu Lin said: "Otherwise, why do you think the Jinwu army can be invincible and defeated?"
Guan Shigu said: "Good, it turns out that there is still such a deep meaning?"
Wu Lin said: "There are many places where the Jinwu Army has deep meaning. Do you think the complaint meeting just now has no deep meaning?"
Tian Sheng said: "Of course it has a deep meaning. Our General Cai is teaching us who we are loyal to."
Wang Yan said: "Is that so? But I think Political Commissar Li said it very well. None of us has any skills, but in the Western Army, we can't even get into a lieutenant. Those who came from military families will be team generals as soon as they join the army, and they can still be promoted without making meritorious contributions. It is not fair at all. Look at that Zhang Jun, he will be promoted from deputy commander to commander in two years."
Li Shiyan said: "I know that Zhang Jun is from Xihe Army. He has some skills. He shoots arrows well and is considered to be a rushing attack. When he left Xihe Army, he seemed to be a lie. In just two or three years, he has been in charge of a military army. Tsk tsk!"
Guo Hao said: "If I want to say that everything is fake, no matter where he is, as long as he can be promoted, who is my Bole, I am my thousand-mile horse."
Guo Hao's words immediately received a lot of echoes.
Guan Shigu said: "Yes, let's put our heads on the belt to bring glory to our ancestors and to honor our wives and children. Whoever can give us this will do it with us."
Yao Zhong said: "Why do people treat me? How do I treat others? General Cai values me, so I will serve General Cai."
Yang Zheng said: "It's useless to ask me to think so much. If we don't come to the Jinwu Army, we will only be the big-headed soldiers. Now, as long as we can go out from the Political Training Office and the New Guard, we will be senior officers. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and may be our only chance to make a name for ourselves. No matter what you think, I have to seize this opportunity anyway."
Wu Jie, who had never spoken, suddenly said, "If you want to seize this opportunity, you will talk less and do more for me in the future. When you see something you shouldn't see, close your eyes immediately, and block your ears immediately when you hear something you shouldn't hear."
As soon as Wu Jie said this, everyone was stunned. I wondered what Wu Jie meant?
Wu Jie didn't explain and walked straight forward.
Everyone looked at each other and finally looked at Wu Lin, meaning that they asked Wu Lin to go over and ask what Wu Jie just said meant?
Wu Lin had no choice but to catch up with Wu Jie and asked, "Brother, what do you mean by what you just said?"
Wu Jie was silent for a while before he said leisurely: "Our General Cai has a great ambition!"
Wu Lin looked solemn and said, "Why did you say that, brother?"
Wu Jie said: "Didn't you notice it? The complaint meeting just now targeted the unfair side of the court, and it set off our General Cai."
Taking a deep breath, Wu Jie said again: "It can be seen from this that our General Cai may be more ambition than the sky."
"Hiss~"
Wu Lin took a deep breath, then lowered his voice and said, "Brother means, General Cai is a disobedient?"
Wu Jie thought about it and said, "At least he is willing to take over the Jinwu army."
After hearing this, Wu Lin was silent for a while and said, "Isn't this a normal thing? All the time, the people in our Western Army are like this. Not to mention the people in our Western Army, even those who came to the Western Army to command the troops, who didn't do this?"
This is also a major feature of the Northern Song Dynasty.
The Northern Song Dynasty court tried its best to suppress military officers, which can be said to be doing everything possible to not give military officers a chance to stand out.
At the same time, the Northern Song Dynasty court adopted a consultation, compromise and indulge in response to those military families that they had already made a breakthrough (such as the Zhe family and the military families of the Western Army).
To put it bluntly, the Northern Song Dynasty court bullied those military officers who could bully them to death, and the martial arts families who could not afford to offend them, and at most they would make small moves from behind, not dare to beat them or punish them.
This also leads to the fact that in order to protect themselves, all military officers will try their best to grow.
In the Western Army, this kind of thing is even more common. It can be said that all the Western Army generals will choose to grow as long as they have the opportunity, and then listen to the tune or not.
If history does not change, the brothers Wu Jie and Wu Lin will also embark on this path.
After hearing what Wu Lin said, Wu Jie thought so.
However, Wu Jie still felt that what Cai still wanted was a little different from what the military families in the Western Army wanted.
But Wu Jie has no evidence to prove his own feelings.
Wu Jie could only say: "Anyway, tell them, don't talk nonsense, and don't do stupid things. It's not easy for us to have such an opportunity to make a name for ourselves, so we must cherish it."
After hesitating for a moment, Wu Jie said again: "Tell them again, don't bully General Cai at a young age. General Cai can reach a height that ordinary people cannot reach in their entire lives when they are young. It is absolutely impossible for him to rely on his personal courage. Therefore, whether it is politics and education, or training for recruits, everyone should be more active and work hard."
Speaking of this, Wu Jie took a deep breath and continued, "I have a premonition that if we fail to meet General Cai's requirements, something unexpected will happen."
Because of Wu Jie's reminder, Wu Lin and others were very active in both the political learning process and the training of recruits.
A month and a half later, Cai Jian indeed handed over the Jinwu front army to Wu Jie who performed very well to command (Yue Fei was transferred by Cai Jian to the newly formed front-superior army to serve as commander), and Wu Lin and others also got their wishes and became commanders.
Of course, it was not beyond the expectations of Wu Jie and others. Cai still dismantled them and scattered them among the various armies of the Jinwu Army.
At the same time, Wu Jie's premonition came true.
Those who were not active in the Political Training Office and the New Guard, especially in the former, all disappeared mysteriously.
This includes Wang Yan (Da) and Li Xianzhong who were dug up with Wu Jie and Cai Ding to find ways to do so. They evaporated from the world.
Moreover, recently, the Jinwu Army has been mobilized very frequently.
Wu Jie didn't know what happened to other troops. After being mobilized, almost all the people from the Jinwu Front Army were loyal to Cai. It can even be said that Cai still asked them to die, and they would not hesitate.
Later, Wu Jie met Wu Lin and others and found that the situation of their troops was similar.
Those who are not politically firm and those who are not active in political training are all transferred away.
As for where they were transferred, no one could tell.
Not long after, after the Jinwu army recovered Taizhou, they suddenly announced a very long list of deaths: Zhao Ding, Zhang Xu, Song Jiang, Liu Qi, Guan Sheng, Hua Rong... Wang Yan... Li Xianzhong...
At the same time, Cai still used this list of deaths to ask for rewards for Zhao Ding, Liu Qi and others.
What made Wu Jie wonder was that the Fang Layi army in Taizhou obviously surrendered quickly under the leadership of its leader Yu Daoan. How could it be so fierce and killed so many senior officials of the Jinwu Army? Did they ever take the general's base camp?
It can be said that the Jinwu Army revealed an indescribable mystery everywhere, which made Wu Jie not understand what Cai Shen sold in the gourd?
But it doesn't matter. Wu Jie believes that as long as he lets Cai still see his loyalty, he will understand these things sooner or later.
Wu Jie silently said, "Our honor is loyalty!", and then went to reorganize the army...
...
Cai Shen’s central army tent.
When Yu Daoan, who had just surrendered, he saluted Cai Jian according to the Manichaeism and said, "Greetings to the Lord."
Cai still reached out to stop him and said, "I am not a Manichi, nor is your Holy Lord."
Yu Daoan looked at Cai Shen next to him, Chen houbiao who had surrendered him.
Chen Zuotuo smiled and said, "It's just a title, Brother Yu doesn't have to worry too much."
Chen Zuotuo looked at Cai Shen again and said, "However, General, you really have to change the title. General, there are too many husbands, which is not enough to reflect your dignity."
Cai Jianxin said, "This old guy is afraid that I will change my mind."
Thinking about this, Cai Shen said: "What you said makes sense. I should have a new title."
Then, Cai Jian changed his tone and said, "But forget this "Holy Lord", I don't like it, and I don't want to have any connection with Manichaeism. I don't think the Manichaeism system can save the Southeast and China."
General Lu took over the conversation and said, "Yes, the Manichaeism doctrine is too extreme. It is still the doctrine of our Jinwu Army. Well... the program can lead us to the final victory."
Chen Zuotuo also nodded and said, "Manichaeism is too killing to make people's hearts. Failure is inevitable."
General Lu said again: "So the "Sheng Gong" is indeed inappropriate. In my opinion, before the general ascended the throne, he might as well call him "Governor" first. This place is the former land of Wu and Yue. Even if the general is not called "King of Wu" now, he should follow Zhou Gongjin's temporary call him "Governor".
Chen Zuotuo thought for a while and said, "Put the word "big", otherwise it will not be enough to help the general."
Yu Daoan: "Grandmaster?"
