Chapter 64 Pingbeibo

Guidefu, the next day

Yesterday, Liu Xia occupied the Guide Mansion, and then in the evening, the new barracks, the Lion Battalion, the Eagle Camp, and the four battalions of the logistics battalions also returned to Guide Mansion. Liu Xia ordered the soldiers of the first battalion to guard all parts of the city, so that the army would rest for a day, and everything would be said the next day.

Early the next morning, the lobby, which was originally used by the magistrate, was crowded with Liu Xia and other generals.

Liu Xia naturally sits in the main position. On the other two sides, there are Wang Stone, the commander of the Qinwei Battalion, Liu Dazhuang, the commander of the Hu Ben Battalion, Zhang Yuan, the commander of the Langxiao Battalion, Yu Mingjun, the commander of the Yingyang Battalion, the Lion Battalion, the Niu Yu, the commander of the Logistics Battalion, Wang En, the commander of the New Barracks, the Zhang Liang, the deputy battalion commander of the Logistics Battalion, Chen Liu, and the deputy battalion of the Hu Ben Battalion. Chang Jiangxin, Ma Peng, deputy battalion commander of Langxiao Battalion, Li Gu, deputy battalion commander of Yingyang Battalion, Lei Ming, deputy battalion commander of Lion Roar Battalion, Niu Chao, deputy battalion commander of the new barracks, Meng Yu, director of the Inspectorate, and others.

If someone comes to attack at this time and kills the people in this room, then Liu Xia's army is basically finished. The room is full of senior generals of each battalion.

Liu Xia glanced at the crowd, rubbed her temples and asked, "Zhang Yuan, have you found those craftsmen and tailors?"

Zhang Yuan got up and replied, "I reported to the general, and the last general found 500 craftsmen and a thousand tailors. I don't know if it's enough?"

Liu Xia nodded her head and said, "Well, that's right. With these people, we can refresh everything in a few days. You tell those craftsmen and tailors that one or two pieces of silver a day is not short of money, but all the clothes and weapons are made for the general. If you find any weapons and clothes are not well made, don't blame me for being ruthless.

Zhang Yuan said, "Yes, general, the last general will definitely tell you."

Wang En frowned and said, "General, is there too much silver on this day?"

Liu Xia waved her hand with a smile and said, "Not much, not much. Now we have seized hundreds of thousands of silver in Guide House. You know, we are not going to stay in this place. If there is too much money, it is not easy to transport. I am still worried that there is no place to use it! What's more, these craftsmen are also difficult, and I have mercy on them in my heart.

Wang En saw that Liu Xia said this. Although he was still a little reluctant to give up the money, he didn't dare to say anything more.

Liu Xia continued: "Now we have occupied this Guide Mansion. If you want food, you need money, and nothing is bad. You can also feel at ease. I want to give our army a name, a flag, and sew a new military uniform.

Wang En asked, "I don't know if the general has an idea?"

Liu Xia paused for a while and said, "Chen Liu."

As soon as Liu Xia's voice finished speaking, Chen Liu stood up, took out a piece of paper in his hand, looked at the generals with a smile, and said, "Generals, I have discussed this matter with the general before, but before talking about this matter, congratulations to the general."

Liu Xia looked at Chen Liu questioningly and said, "Congratulations to General? Why is this?"

Other generals were also attracted by Chen Liu's words. They looked over with big eyes. Chen Liu shook his fan with a smile and said, "As far as I know, what the generals have done in Yangzhou is now known to the world."

"Cut, we thought what it was. It turned out to be known all over the world. I knew it would be known all over the world for a long time." Wang Shitou said with an arrogant face.

Liu Xia shouted, "Stone, let's listen to your husband."

Others turned their eyes to Chen Liu again, who said with a smile, "As far as I know, the Nanming court heard about the general's move, and then rewarded the general as Beiping uncle. In the future, everyone will call the general Lord.

"Pingbeibo?" Everyone was puzzled.

Liu Xia said, "Sir, let's talk about the matter as soon as possible."

Chen Liu said, "The title of Pingbeibo is that the general prevented the Qing army from going south, so the court specially awarded it, but outsiders did not know the whereabouts of the general before. Naturally, the Southern Ming court did not know where the general was, but told the world that the reward was Pingbeibo. Because they did not know the general's whereabouts, so The imperial edict of the award will come and give it to the general.

"General, listen to the title "Pingbeibo" given to you by the Southern Ming court. Before that, the Southern Ming court had been thinking about governing across the river with the Qing army in the north, and negotiated with the Qing court in private, and had always held this expectation in its heart.

But knowing that the Qing army had reached the city of Nanjing, the small court of Nanming knew that it was impossible for Manqing to rule with himself, so it was named the general, Pingbeibo.

After listening to this, Liu Xia couldn't calm down for a long time, because he didn't want to be involved with Nanming. He looked down on Liu Xia in the Nanming court at all. A group of mud couldn't help him up. If he worked for them, he would definitely die very quickly.

Chen Liu also seemed to see Liu Xia's mind and said, "General, don't worry. We are also officers and soldiers of Nanming. Now that we have the title of Pingbeibo, we will be famous for everything in the future. Although we have won the title of Nanming, we can ignore the order of the Nanming court."

Liu Xia listened and began to meditate. At this time, the hall was quiet, and no one dared to disturb Liu Xia's thinking.

Do you want to accept the ban on Nanming? Accepting it means that you will be a general and a count in the Southern Ming court. If you don't obey the orders of the Southern Ming court, you will rebel. If you don't accept so many troops, I'm afraid it's too early for you to start another stove, and I'm afraid it will soon be destroyed by other forces.

Chen Liu said, "General, now accepting this title has more advantages than disadvantages. You can do things with the hat of the Southern Ming court. Although the Southern Ming court is weak and incompetent now, and it can't produce any material help to us, it is famous to have this name."

Liu Xia meditated and said, "Just now, I also thought about it. As my husband said, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Then accept this title. The name of our army is the Pingbei Army."

Chen Liu smiled and said, "General Sheng Ming."

Liu Xia waved her hand and said, "Don't say that. Now you can talk about the army's uniform first."

Chen Liu smiled and said, "General, no, Lord, you can't call him a general anymore."

After Chen Liu said, the generals present stepped down from their seats one after another and said to Liu Xia, "Lord!"

Liu Xia quickly got up and said, "Generals, please get up, please get up quickly."

"According to the general's idea, the army's military flag is designed into a black cloth embroidered with a yellow dragon. In the future, each battalion will use this flag. In addition to this flag, each battalion can also design another camp flag according to its own style. As for what the camp flag is, you can think. Let's just submit it to the Lord for review when it's done.
