Chapter 227 Stay in Annan!
When Liang Pengfei and Wang Shouli arrived at Hue City, they were greeted by Na Helin's soldiers and directly took them to He Lin's temporary residence.
"The last general Wang Shouli (Liang Pengfei) has met the general." As soon as the two walked to the hall, they saw He Lin leading the generals to stand on the steps with a smile. They did not dare to neglect, and quickly stepped forward to salute respectfully.
"Okay, okay, don't be polite. Come in. Ha ha... You two are worthy of being the pillars of my master. In the battle of Annan, you have made great contributions. He Lin stepped forward and helped Liang Pengfei and said to Wang Shouli. In addition, I would like to congratulate both of you.
Liang Pengfei and Wang Shouli couldn't help but be stunned and looked at each other. They didn't know why He Lin said such a thing. However, the expressions of the generals around them were either envious or jealous. It seemed that these people already knew what was going on.
At this time, a civil official stood up next to him and cleared his throat: "Wang Shouli, the general of Humen Town, Guangdong Marine Division, and Liang Pengfei, the general of Humen Town, took the order! ......"
After receiving the imperial edict, the smiles on the faces of Liang Pengfei and Wang Shouli seemed to be like the flowers of spring. Both of them were promoted. Zhao Chengbeng, the original admiral of the Guangdong Marine Division, was transferred to the admiral of the Fujian Marine Division. Wang Shouli, the former general of Humen Town, Guangdong Marine Division, was promoted to the admiral of the Guangdong Marine Division for his merits, and he was rewarded with one eye.
Liang Pengfei, the former general of Humen Town of Guangdong Marine Division, was promoted to the commander-in-chief of Humen Town of Guangdong Marine Division. Similarly, he was rewarded with a bird's hair and asked him to stick his head to play.
As for the reward of He Lin, it is even more astonishing. The prince Shaofu, the minister of the bodyguard, gave the title of General Zhenyuan, and his eyes were dazzling. However, He Lin's reward had been received before the number of days, and Liang Pengfei and Wang Shouli's reward was because they were too far away, so they just knew it now.
While accepting the congratulations of these generals present, Liang Pengfei secretly rejoiced in his heart. Fortunately, his efforts were not in vain, and he finally became the commander-in-chief of the only soldier in the town. More importantly, he did not leave the sailor, and Wang Shouli is still his immediate superior. In this way, he will definitely do things smoothly in the future.
"Pengfei, you are a rare general in my dynasty. You are so young that you are already a second-class member. You are really envious of me." Yongbao came forward and stroked the long beard and smiled at Liang Pengfei.
After Liang Pengfei's modesty, He Lin returned to the main position, cleared her throat, and Liang Pengfei and Wang Shouli, who had a bird's hair on their heads, also sat in their seats and waited for the commander to speak.
And the words with Lin really made the generals present a little dumbfounded, because just two months ago, there was a rebellion of the Miao people in Guizhou Province, which affected the places of Duyun and Li Ping. The momentum was quite strong and the court was shocked. Therefore, Qianlong had issued an order to let He Lin lead the army to return the army and eliminate the rebellion of the Miao people in Guizhou. Chaos.
--------------------
Another piece of news is that although the emperor of the Qing Dynasty has pacified the northern and central areas of Nan'an, the time is still short, the people are not at ease, and there are still remnants of the Xishan Army in various places. At the request of the lord of Annan, Qianlong once had a decree to let He Lin cooperate more with the lord of Annan. Therefore, He Lin He ordered that the commander-in-chief of Zuojiang Town in Guangdong Province, Pujibao, should temporarily stay in Annan for the time being, and the garrison should be cleared in the military areas connecting the north and the south, and help the lord of Annan to suppress the rebellion in Xishan and march again.
Before he finished talking to Lin, Phuket stood up with a dissatisfied face: "Marshal, the last general is willing to follow the commander back to calm down Guizhou, and I hope the commander will agree."
He Lin couldn't help but speak coldly: "General General, this is a military order. How can it be changed day and night?"
"This Annan has calmed down. The remnants of the Xishan Army are just grasshoppers after autumn. How much can they do?" Phuket is still struggling to seek the way.
When He Lin saw that Pujibao was so unappreciating, her face darkened: "General General Pu, do you want to disoperate your orders?"
As soon as this statement came out, the generals who had whispered below quickly closed their voices, with a serious expression, for fear of letting He Lin vent their anger on their foreheads. When Phuket saw He Lin's face wrapped in frost, he had to reluctantly answer, "I will obey."
After the Phuket Bao sat back to his position with a gloomy face, He Lin glanced at the generals present, and finally fell on Liang Pengfei's face, which made Liang Pengfei stunned and quickly sat up straight.
He Lin thought for a while and didn't say anything. Instead, he continued to order the affairs and let Liang Pengfei stay. After the generals left the house, He Lin didn't say anything, but let Yongbao and Liang Pengfei go to the back garden with him for lunch.
In the pavilion in the garden of Lin's temporary official residence, the table is full of wine and delicious food. In addition to Liang Pengfei, there is only the commander of the army, He Lin, and the counselor minister Yongbao.
"This expedition to Annan, Pengfei, you are brave, resourceful and courageous. With the isolated division overseas, you defeated the Nan Ruan Shui Division, contained the idea of Nan Ruan's north, and also suppressed the rebellion in the Fuchun area with the general soldiers of Wang, stabilized the overall situation, and even broke the army of Ding Kesheng, the governor of the southern expedition. Now, the prestige of your General Liang is in Annan. It's almost time to stop the children's night. After three rounds of drinking, Lin and Lin looked at Liang Pengfei, who had changed into the general's robe, and praised with a gratified face.
"All this is that the commander-in-chief values the last general. If it hadn't been for the commander who ordered our sailor to go south to help Ruan Wenyue, how could the last general have done so?" Liang Pengfei saluted to Lin respectfully.
"All right, there are no outsiders here. There is no need to be polite." He Lin waved his hand and motioned Liang Pengfei to sit down, but a trace of regret appeared on He Lin's face: "It's a pity that Nan Ruan is still there. The Xishan Army sailors are far away, and the whereabouts of the pseudo-prince Guang Zan are unknown. Our army failed to fight and pacify the whole territory of Annan. It's really a pity.
"Why should the commander be like this? Now, the victory of our army has been decided, Ruan Wenhui has died, and Ruan Guangzan doesn't know where he is going. The Xishan Army sailor is already a rootless duckweed, and can no longer pose a threat to the sea of the Qing Dynasty. The commander has proved your achievements to the people of the world. Why do you care about this little flaw?" Yongbao, who was beside him, said with a smile.
"Exactly, the commander-in-chief does not have to do so. I think that in the past, the army of our dynasty also fought against Ruan Wenhui, but the master did nothing. On the contrary, Ruan Wenhui injured the name of our king's general's surname, which made the court lose face. Now, the commander not only defeated the puppet emperor Ruan Wenhui of Annan in a row, but also made him afraid of the power of the king of our heavenly dynasty and died of illness. Not only did he report the blood and hatred for the soldiers who were in Annan, but he also showed the military power of my heavenly dynasty, making the four barbarians submit..." Liang Pengfei's nonsense was also quite good.
Under the continuous persuasion of Liang Pengfei and Na Yongbao, Na and Lin finally recovered their mood.
--------------------
"Pengfei, I originally wanted you to be under my command, but you are proficient in water warfare, which is really a rare general for me to be a sailor. Now my general to be a sailor has withered, so I can only bear the pain and let you continue to work in the sailors. There is another thing..." He Lin seemed to feel a little embarrassed to say it.
"Our army is about to leave Annan now. The lord of Annan is worried that the new land is difficult to control. Although he asked Phuket to assist in the suppression, the lord of Annan knows that Peng Fei is a rare general of my imperial sailor, and he praises you for the forbidden army he trained for. It can be said that he has a good impression of you, plus Annan. The Lord was worried that the Xishan Army Marine Division, whose whereabouts were unknown, attacked the coastal area, making the domestic beacon smoke continuous, so he asked the commander. I hope to keep an elite sailor to drive away the thieves of the western landscape master. In order to enable the lord of the country to grasp the overall situation of stability and make Annan prosperous and safe. Yongbao followed Lin's words and explained to Liang Pengfei with a smile.
"This, what you mean..." Liang Pengfei's eyes flashed with a trace of understanding and joy, but on the surface, he still pretended to be confused.
"Pengfei, you are different from Phuket. There are many mistakes and omissions in this battle of Phuket. I stayed here in the hope that he can wait for the crime and make contributions. As for the request of the Lord of Annan, I also feel that there is some reason and that you can take on this heavy responsibility. This is not only because I value you, but also because of the court. I hope you don't think you will be wrong. He Lin couldn't help explaining.
Indeed, Liang Pengfei made him attach great importance to it. At least this young man made him feel very satisfied. Just like at the beginning, after Liang Pengfei took Da Nang, he did not go any further to attack Hue, which was only two days away from Da Nang, but stayed in Da Nang for the reason of insufficient supplies and weapons.
In fact, doing this shows that he will be a man. When he won consecutive victories, he has not forgotten who is the commander of the crusade against Annan rebels. In fact, he just wants to keep the prince Guang Zan and let He Lin complete this last blow. Although Ruan Guangzan did not do as they wanted later, he actually flashed, but No one can blame this.
Liang Pengfei's behavior still made He Lin feel quite satisfied. She felt that this person was bold and understand interpersonal relationships. To stay here, He Lin was also a helpless choice. After all, Wang Shouli is now the Admiral of Guangdong Marine Division, and Zhao Chenglin has moved to Fujian.
Wang Shouli must rush back to take over, and Liang Pengfei is just a general, and it must be much more convenient than the admiral Wang Shouli.
After a lot of words, He Lin and Yongbao looked at Liang Pengfei, who was meditating. As a habitual thinking, others would think that Liang Pengfei had offended He Lin and was assigned such an unlucky task, because as soon as He Lin withdrew, it proved that the battle to calm Annan was over. Naturally, this military achievement can no longer be counted for the suppression of pirates in the country. Therefore, Puji, the general of Zuojiang Town, Guangxi Province, who lost at the beginning, kept here to suppress the remnants of the Xishan Army, which is a disguised punishment. However, Liang Pengfei stayed here out of an overall consideration, and also because he valued Liang Pengfei's ability.
Because Nan Ruan is still there, and the whereabouts of the Xishan Marine Division are unknown, who knows if there will be a sudden counterattack. However, he was worried that Liang Pengfei would think wrongly, so he specially left Liang Pengfei and explained to Liang Pengfei for his purpose of doing so.
"The commander-in-chief trusts the last general so much that the last general has no reason to rely on him and is willing to obey the general's military order." Liang Pengfei stood up and replied to Na and Lin.
"Good, in this way, I will put down my worries and feel at ease with the class teacher." Seeing Liang Pengfei's style, He Lin and Yongbao looked at each other and smiled, and finally put down the last stone in his heart. After two days, I will be the teacher. Pengfei, you will stay in Hue and welcome the lord of Annan on behalf of the marshal.
