Chapter 187

Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun were shocked. They looked at each other and then lowered their heads. They were silent, each thinking about their own thoughts. TXT download.

It is certainly good to find someone to command the three tribes. You don't have to worry about Tang Yin taking away the military power, but who should you look for?

Although Liang Xing himself did not know how to lead an army, he had an outstanding son, Liang Qi. If he had to choose one person from the three families, it would be Liang Qi. Someone who had similar ideas to him was Ziyang Haochun, who was once a great leader. General, a serious military general with eight hundred years of experience, commanding the armies of three families, he is of course the most qualified. Wu Yu was happier than the two of them. Although the dance family was prosperous and yang was declining, the two daughters were not simple, especially Wu Mei, who had a close relationship with Tang Yin. Just because the latter dared to risk entering the palace to save people was a big problem. It is enough to prove that if Tang Yin chooses someone, he will choose Wuying instead of Wu Mei.

The three of them each had their own agenda and relied on them. After a moment of silence, they all raised their heads and smiled at Tang Yin: "Okay, let's handle this matter according to Master Tang's wishes!"

Tang Yin was secretly happy, pretending to be calm, and asked: "So, who do the three adults think is suitable to be elected?"

Before anyone else could speak, Ziyang Haochun had already said, "Of course this candidate is me." He looked at Liang Xing and Wu Yu proudly, and continued: "My Ziyang family has been a general for generations, commanding the army. Of course, fighting is not a problem, what do you think, Liang Xiang and Wu Xiang?"

"Huh!" Liang Xing chuckled and said slowly: "The general who commanded the 200,000-strong army that was defeated in the Hedong area and was almost wiped out must be from your Ziyang family. It has only been so long, but the past is still fresh in your mind. "Hey, do you, the Ziyang family, still want to be the commander-in-chief?"

"You..." Ziyang Haochun's old face turned red. He couldn't hold on to his face anymore. He stood up and glared at Liang Xing.

"General Ziyang, please stop fighting. The commander-in-chief of our three tribes can be anyone, but it will never be someone from your Ziyang family." At this time, Old God Wu Yu interjected on the ground. This time, it was rare for him to be on the same side as Liang Xing. He planned to exclude the Ziyang family first and reduce one opponent.

"Hmph!" Ziyang Haochun snorted angrily and sat back on the chair angrily. He crossed his arms and glared at Liang Xing and Wu Yu. He wanted to see who the final selection would be!

Wu Yu smiled at Tang Yin and said: "The authorities are obsessed with it, but bystanders know better. I'm afraid we can't choose a suitable candidate ourselves. Mr. Tang, it's up to you to decide this matter!"

"Oh..." Tang Yin groaned, shook his head and said, "This is not good!"

"Nothing wrong!" Ziyang Haochun said loudly: "Master Tang had better choose someone who can be convincing!" Liang Xing and Wu Yu now made it clear that they were ostracizing him, and he could only place his hopes on Tang Yin. On the body.

Hearing what he said, Tang Yin nodded, seeming to accept it reluctantly.

He murmured: "Although the Ziyang family has been a general for generations, the defeat in the battle in Hedong was really miserable. If a member of the Ziyang family were to be the general, I'm afraid it would be difficult to convince the public." As he said that, he looked at Wu again. Yu said: "The two daughters of the dancer family are both civil and military. They are as good as men, but they are capable of being generals, but they are not capable of being commanders. Besides, it is difficult in the army. It is better for girls' families to stay away from the army." When he came out, Wu Yu's face suddenly changed. Just as he was about to speak, Tang Yin continued: "Although Prime Minister Liang is not suitable for commanding an army, his son Liang Qi is a genius in commanding an army. Especially in the Battle of Tongmen, he defeated Ning. The army has a high reputation in the army. I think General Liang Qi is the most suitable person to hold this position."

When he finished speaking, Liang Xingle couldn't close his mouth. He never dreamed that Tang Yin, who had a grudge against him, could choose someone from his Liang family. This was really pie in the sky. Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun were trembling with anger, especially the former. They never imagined that Tang Yin would not favor their dance family, but would instead give such an important position to his political rivals, the Liang family.

He wanted to stand up and object, but he had just taken the initiative to let Tang Yin pick the candidate. How could he go back on his words in public now? Wu Yu was furious, especially when he saw Liang Xing sitting next to him, who was triumphant and smiling. He made a plan, even if the Wu family couldn't control the army, they would never take advantage of the Liang family.

Everyone on the left and right is handing over military power, so why not give it to Tang Yin? Perhaps the latter may not dare to ask for his own military power!

Thinking of this, he said seriously: "I have no objection to the candidates proposed by Mr. Tang, but instead of letting Liang Qi command the army, it is better to directly hand it over to Mr. Tang. My Wu family now has 30,000 soldiers, and I am willing to hand it over to Mr. Tang. Your Majesty’s command, obey Mr. Tang’s dispatch!”

Hearing this, before Tang Yin could say anything, Ziyang Haochun also said: "I am the same! The 30,000 people in my Liang family are also willing to be dispatched by Mr. Tang." Although he did not think as much as Wu Yu thought, but he knew Wu Yu has always been cunning, and since he is willing to say so, it is definitely right for him to follow his lead.

Liang Xing glanced at the two of them and sneered in his heart. Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun, the two old foxes, would rather give the military power to Tang Yin than to themselves. But if they want to hand over the military power, they can do it, as long as the Liang family's military power can be retained by themselves. Just have it in hand.

Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun took the initiative to hand over military power to Tang Yin, which was what Tang Yin wanted most. He was not humble at all. He immediately handed over to them and said: "Since Wu Xiang and General Ziyang can trust me so much, then It is better to obey orders than to be respectful, I will take charge of your troops on your behalf. When we conquer Yancheng in the future, Prime Minister Wu and General Ziyang will definitely be indispensable in the merit book!"

Tang Yin was not polite at all and actually accepted all the members of the two families. Now Wu Yu was dumbfounded. He just gave in deliberately, thinking that Tang Yin, who was promoted by him and had an ambiguous relationship with his daughter, would not dare to do so. He wanted his military power, but Tang Yin didn't show any mercy and didn't even give himself a chance to regret it.

Wu Yu and Ziyang Haochun were both stunned and couldn't recover for a long time. When Liang Xing saw this, he secretly laughed so hard that his stomach exploded. Wu Yu thought he was smart and thought Tang Yin would lean towards him. What was the result? Instead, he was tricked by Tang Yin. He would not let go of this good opportunity to add insult to injury, and said repeatedly: "No matter what, the Wu family and the subordinates of the Ziyang family will be taken over by Mr. Tang, while the subordinates of my Liang family will be led by the dog Liang Qi. That’s how it’s settled!”

Liang Xing only wanted to weaken the Wu and Ziyang families, but he didn't think about it. If these two families were weakened, how could his Liang family enjoy stability alone?

really.

Less than two days after the meeting, Tang Yin had not officially accepted the followers of the Wu and Ziyang families. Instead, Liang Qi led the regimental commanders of the Liang family to visit Tang Yin and expressed his willingness to obey Tang Yin's command and obey his dispatches. Tang Yin He just accepted the situation and incorporated all four corps under the Liang family into the Sanshui Army, and promoted Liang Qi to the rank of President Commander of the Sanshui Army.

Bai Yong, the former commander-in-chief of the Sanshui Army, served as deputy commander-in-chief.

Bai Yong didn't care too much about his sudden demotion and the addition of an immediate boss. He knew his own strength very well. He was a general at best, far from a handsome man. But Liang Qi was different. Although he was not the same age, Although he was old, he was of noble birth, and he was famous for leading troops in battles. Bai Yong was already very content to let himself be his deputy.

Of course, he also understood Tang Yin's purpose. Letting himself be Liang Qi's deputy was more of a supervisory role.

Liang Qi led the Liang family members to suddenly defect to Tang Yin. Liang Xing did not know anything about it beforehand. It was not until Tang Yin's formal appointment order came down that he knew that his son was also the commander-in-chief of the Sanshui Army.

After learning about this, Liang Xing was so angry that he almost lost his temper on the spot. Liang Qi became the commander-in-chief of the Sanshui Army. The number of troops in charge increased, but his reputation was greatly reduced. He became Tang Yin's subordinate. From now on, he will serve for Tang Yin. Tang Yin works and serves Tang Yin, where does this put the Liang family's face?

But it had come to this, and he didn't even have a chance to stop it. Only then did he realize that he had been deceived. Not only himself, but also Liang, Wu, and Ziyang could be said to have been deceived by Tang Yin.

The three of them had been fighting openly and secretly all their lives, and each city was deeper than the other, but they looked away from Tang Yin. They didn't expect that his ambition could be so great, and he was secretly plotting for the military power of his three families. What's even more surprising is that Lian Liang Qi, a very smart member of the Liang family, was bribed by Tang Yin.

No matter how regretful Liang Xing, Wu Yu, and Ziyang Haochun were, no matter how full of resentment they were, the military power was indeed handed over by the three of them on their own initiative and not by Tang Yin. Although their subordinates felt that It's baffling, but I can't say anything.

Things progressed much more smoothly than Tang Yin imagined. He did not use any radical means or force to coerce. He only used the intrigue among the three families of Liang, Wu, and Ziyang to easily deceive the military power of the three families, completely eliminating his worries.

He also made corresponding adjustments to the ten corps of Liang, Wu, and Ziyang. He did not move the corps commanders of each corps, but transferred all the commanders below. However, it was not a flat transfer or dismissal. , but gives a boost.

Now the Tianyuan Army is expanding too fast, and its strength has increased so much that basically every corps has a vacancy for a corps commander or deputy corps commander. Tang Yin's transfer of the thousand commanders can just fill these vacancies, while at the same time greatly weakening Liang, Wu, and Zi The factions of these ten corps.

The captain plays a linking role in the corps, and is also the core skeleton of a corps. If the captain is taken away and replaced with his own confidants, then the corps will basically be firmly controlled by himself.

Tang Yin and Zhong Tian also made corresponding adjustments for the loyalty of their troops to themselves, but the results were not the same.

Zhong Tian's one-size-fits-all approach caused everyone to feel insecure and the morale of the army to be weakened. Tang Yin's withdrawal of key personnel not only did not cause panic, but made everyone feel at ease. Those who were promoted were happy, and those who were not promoted were envious. People felt that they were not treated under Tang Yin's command. Regardless of any discrimination or exclusion, everyone has the opportunity and space to improve their position, and it is a place where they can flourish.

Because there was no sense of rejection, the morale of the army quickly stabilized, and the change of ownership of ten regiments seemed so natural and calm.

Doing the same thing, to achieve the same goal, using slightly different methods will lead to completely different results. This is the difference between Zhong Tian and Tang Yin.
