Chapter 152 Adaptation
At the beginning, Luo Ru was still a little disdainful of Xiao Tianjian's recruitment, but at this time, he had to officially consider Xiao Tianjian's idea.
Dongshanhu looked at the cavalry of the Xing Tianjun leaping in the open space. He clenched his fists and his face was red, and he looked excited. He couldn't help nodding and whispering something. Only those close to him could hear it. He originally muttered: "Great! Magnificent! A man should be like this! That's the same! When can my Dongshan tiger bring out such a strong soldier? How did Marshal Xiao do it?
Liu Yaoben, who was accompanying Dongshan Tiger Han Fang, looked at him and smiled and said, "Brother Han wants to bring out this elite soldiers. Why is it difficult? As long as Brother Han says a word, our general will definitely be willing to let Brother Han get what he wants!"
After listening to this, Dongshanhu's eyes lit up, but immediately dimmed again. Why didn't he want to take such a soldier and horse across the battlefield? However, although he is very brave, he is always not valued by Luo Ru, so that now he only has a few hundred soldiers under him, and he works under Luo Rucai. Military discipline is not at all. He can't take care of it tightly. If he is a little strict, the people below will not do it, and the falling general often restricts him, making him It's always powerful and can't be used. You can only rush to fight like a madman. If you want to bring out such a strong soldier, you can't just have someone.
Luo Ru just looked at the soldiers and horses of the Xing Tianjun. He was quite shocked and was silent for a long time. Returning to Xiao Tianjian's big tent, Xiao Tianjian smiled at Luo Ru and asked, "I don't know if these soldiers and generals can still get into Brother Luo's eyes?"
Luo Ru immediately nodded and said, "Brother Xiao's soldiers and horses are the strongest soldiers in the world!" Luo is really ashamed of you!"
"Where! General Luo is polite. I'm afraid Brother Luo can see the current situation clearly. Although the world's righteous army is everywhere and the wind is surging, at present, after the court implements the net, it is difficult for all kinds of volunteers to survive. Presumably Brother Luo must understand that you and I are all forced to rise up in order to overthrow the Ming Dynasty. If it goes on like this, how can everyone achieve great things if they fight alone?
At present, as far as I know, Liu Guoneng has been forced by Xiong Wencan to surrender to the imperial court, and the eight kings are also forced to be caressed in Gucheng. At the same time, there are many slightly smaller rebels who have been wiped out by the officers and soldiers one after another. Even the current situation of the king is very bad!
In today's plan, in Xiao's opinion, only when many rebels unite with each other can they completely overthrow the current court! Otherwise, it can only be broken by the officers and soldiers, and finally let those dead brothers shed their blood for nothing!
Fortunately, my Xing Tianjun has also accumulated a family business over the years. He can still compete with the officers and soldiers. Xiao is not talented. Since he saw Brother Luo today, he has a ruthless invitation. I don't know if he should talk about it!"
After listening to this, Luo Ru's heart was moved. He secretly said that what was supposed to come was still coming, so he hugged his fist and said, "Brother Xiao, you can say whatever you want to say!" Although you and I met for the first time today, we have been friends for a long time! There's nothing wrong with it!"
"In that case, let's be honest! Since Xiao started the army, he has known that Brother Luo is a wise and resourceful person among all kinds of righteous troops. Now, if you and I can join hands, with Brother Luo's reputation, he will definitely be able to cheer up, unite the rebels, fight against the court and army together, and work together! But I don't know if Brother Luo can condescend and act as a deputy commander in my Xing Tianjun? Xiao Tianjian was no longer polite, even if he said what he thought to Luo Ru.
After listening to it, Luo Ru took a deep breath: "This..."
If Xiao Tianjian directly put forward this idea at the noon banquet, Luo Ru would not agree. However, after watching the drill of the third battalion of Xing Tianjun's horse and cannon in the afternoon, Luo Ru was really shocked by the terrible combat power of Xing Tianjun. The reason why he could live in such a troubled world for more than ten years is this insight. It's really not covered. He really doesn't praise him because he is so wise and resourceful. His vision is still quite broad. He can also see how serious the net scheme implemented by the imperial court is to hit all kinds of righteous people from all walks of life. The fact that the eight kings caressed this shows how serious the situation is at present, and he himself In the past half a year, he ran from Shanxi to Yulin, and then was driven from Yulin to Shangluo, and then rushed from Shangluo to Yunyang by the army. Finally, he was almost surrounded and annihilated in Yunyang by the officers and soldiers. If he hadn't turned around and rushed out of the siege in time when he saw the bad situation, his result would not be better than Zhang Xianzhong. At least Zhang Xianzhong is at least true. The force is still there, and he can get a caress, and if he is not careful, he may be completely killed.
So at present, he can say that he can only guarantee his safety if he is with Xiao Tianjian for the time being. If he doesn't agree to Xiao Tianjian, once he breaks his face, he doesn't need Xiao Tianjian to deal with him. As long as he leads his troops to leave the Lu family, I'm afraid that waiting for him will be the encirclement of countless officers and soldiers.
So no matter whether Xiao Tianjian invited him to join the gang this time is true or not, he can only follow his fate and wait for the opportunity in the future. Moreover, Xiao Tianjian is very polite to him and directly offered such a high condition and promised him to be the deputy commander. At least his reputation is not bad.
After thinking about it over and over again, Luo Ru then gritted his teeth and said, "It's my great respect for me, Mr. Luo. If I don't know how to praise me anymore, I will really be a person! That's all right! Just as the general said! Luo, see the general!"
After saying that, Luo Ru bypassed the table and walked to the center of the big tent. He held his fists and saluted Xiao Tianjian deeply, which was a recognition of Xiao Tianjian's status.
And the subordinates who followed Luo Rucai saw that Luo Rucai had already stated that they wanted to turn to Xiao Tianjian, so they also quickly stood up and walked behind Luo Rucai. They quickly knelt down and saluted Xiao Tianjian one by one, saying that they were also willing to rely on Xiao Tianjian.
Xiao Tianjian stood up with a big laugh, quickly walked down in three steps and two steps, grabbed Luo Rucai's arms, let people look next to him, let Luo Rucai sit down, and hurriedly picked up the generals of Luo Rucai one by one, and comforted them with good words. Only then did they all be happy to return to their seats.
Many things in the world rely on strength to speak. Luo Ru didn't think that he had a holiday with Xiao Tianjian at the beginning. Later, last year, in the Battle of Xiezhou, Xing Tianjun came to him again to die, forcing him to escape from Shanxi, but now people have to bow their heads under the eaves. The truth of Xing Tianjun Li is here. As long as he still wants to shelter under Xiao Tianjian's wings, he can only listen to Xiao Tianjian's instructions.
And the reason why Xiao Tianjian arranged them to go to see the performance of the third battalion of Ma Bu Cannon under his command today is that he shows his muscles to Luo Rucai and others in this way, and the effect is much better than he and Niu Jinxing, Li Jinde and others expected. Luo Rucai is also a The smart man did not object and directly agreed to invest under Xiao Tianjian's command. In this way, many of the original tricks will not be used for the time being.
After sitting down in the two compartments, the generals on Xiao Tianjian's side also saw Luo Rucai, saying that Luo Rucai was the deputy commander-in-chief, and Luo Rucai also answered this name with joy on his face.
And Xiao Tianjian has never been procrastinating. Now that the name has been finalized, he immediately discussed with Luo Rucai and others about the consolidation of the 3,000 to 4,000 followers under Luo Rucai's command.
Finally, after bargaining, Luo Ru promised to reorganize his subordinates into two battle camps of the Xingtian Army. They were led by Fu Dashan and Dongshan Tiger and Han, and stationed in Henghe in the south of Lushi County and Luanchuan Town in the east of Lushi County respectively. In the future, they will be under the control of Xiao Tianjian and the army and food. Naturally, the supply is uniformly allocated by the Logistics Department of Xing Tianjun.
Originally, if it had been according to Luo Rucai's original intention, even if his soldiers and horses accepted the reorganization, the commander-in-chief would not fall on Dongshan Tiger and Han Fang. However, this time, because Xiao Tianjian showed great importance to the Han side, Luo Rucai could not refute Xiao Tianjian's face when arranging manpower, so he had to The first battalion was handed over to Dongshan Tiger and South Korea.
This can make Dongshan Tiger very happy. He has been working under Luo Rucai for so many years. This is still his real self-led army, and Han Fang's nature is straightforward, but it does not mean that he is stupid. Of course, he knows that this time he was appointed as a battalion general because Xiao Tianjian valued him, and his heart is naturally After getting a little closer, he quickly came out to thank Luo Rucai and Xiao Tianjian. He patted his chest and promised, "Please don't worry, the marshal and the deputy commander. I, Han will definitely take good care of the brothers of this battalion. I must not let these brothers lose the deputy commander!"
Luo Ru just looked at the eager Dongshan tiger and felt a little uneasy in his heart. This time, Xiao Tianjian gave him a lot of face. He did not disturb his men and put the veterans under his command into the old department of the Xing Tianjun. To some extent, he maintained their certain independence, which was also what he promised to do. One reason is that Dongshanhu is obviously a little grateful to Xiao Tianjian. If it goes on like this, he doesn't know whether the Dongshanhu camp will be out of his control in the future and become Xiao Tianjian's side in the future.
However, at present, he has no choice but to go down and quietly arrange it. He has nothing to say about such an arrangement, but he is unhappy that he will no longer be able to restrict the Dongshan tiger in the future. The Dongshan tiger has become equal to him, so he can only reluctantly out. He thanked and retreated with a full of complaints, but when he withdrew from the big account, he still quietly turned his head and cast a resentful look at Xiao Tianjian. All this did not dodge Xiao Tianjian's eyes, while Xiao Tianjian only showed a playful sneer at the corners of his mouth.
