Xi Zhicai asked for the soldiers of the army, Yan Xing smiled and agreed.

That night, Yan Xing and Xi Zhicai had enough talks with each other. It was not until midnight that the two of them stopped talking and fell asleep one after another.

Although Xi Zhicai slept for the first time, he was a bed and sleeping with Yan Xing for the first time, but he was really tired and worried. He talked about the middle of the night and fell asleep in a daze until the next day when he finally woke up.

After waking up, Xi Zhicai recalled what happened last night and went to see Yan Xing sleeping on the other end, but he had already gotten up and disappeared.

After asking the soldiers outside the tent, I realized that Yan Xing had gotten up early and went to inspect the camp.

But Xi Zhicai didn't know that when Yan Xing went out at this time, in addition to inspecting the camp, he also went to see Zhou Liang.

Because he had served Yan Xing sincerely, Xi Zhicai did not leave for the time being, but waited for Yan Xing to come back in the tent.

After waiting for about half an hour, Yan Xing finally came back. With the help of his personal guards, he took off his armor and wore only a single dress and casual clothes. He looked at Xi Zhicai and smiled:

"Zhicai woke up. He hadn't even entered the morning food yet. Come on, let's eat with me."

"Thank you, the lieutenant, last night until midnight. Unexpectedly, the lieutenant got up early this morning. The lieutenant's diligence in dealing with people and affairs really makes his subordinates ashamed."

Hearing Xi Zhicai's words, Yan Xing smiled, washed his face in a copper basin, and then wiped it dry with a kudzu towel, and then solemnly said to Xi Zhicai:

"Diligent body means strong; easy will lead to illness; diligence will lead to prosperity; lazy will lead to decline. Diligence will lead to governance; lazy will lead to chaos; diligence will lead to victory; laziness will lead to defeat; laziness will lead to defeat. Diligence is the first priority in managing the army. If you have experienced it, you will know that it cannot be changed. You will lead the army for a long time and hold the power of the commander's life in the army. You must not neglect and relax for a moment. This habit must be developed."

"It is important to know that the way of governing the army is that there is no one who does not get up early on weekdays, but who can suddenly get up early on weekdays, but who can suddenly get up early on weekdays, but who can suddenly get up late on weekdays, but who can sometimes get up late on weekdays, but who can sometimes get up late on weekdays, but you must remember first when you plan the history of the army in the army, you should practice hard work with your soldiers!"

In Yan Xing's opinion, the opera talent is good, but one thing is bad, that is, he has been poor for too long and has been wandering around in the market, and has developed the bad habit of being lazy and tired.

The unrestrained and uncontrollable situation is also an important reason why Xi Zhicai was weak and died young. Therefore, Yan Xing just used the words of Zeng Guofan in his later generations to encourage Xi Zhicai, hoping that he could be alert, abandon bad habits, and truly integrate into the daily life of the military strategists.

These principles were truly realized through personal experiences in the past three years of Yan Xing's congregation. Yan Xing was willing to take out the profound meaning of it today and share it with Xi Zhicai. It is precisely because he regards Xi Zhicai as his own think tank that he attaches so much importance to it.

After hearing Yan Xing's words, Xi Zhicai immediately understood what Yan said. He did have the illusion of drinking like life, unable to get up from drunkenness, and laziness in his daily life. However, now he has served as the military strategy and history in the army. Even the commander of the army, Yan Xing, is setting an example and diligent in governing the army. Then those who are subordinates need to be diligent in their work.

Xi Zhicai immediately nodded and said yes. Yan Xing nodded, thought for a while, and began to say:

"In addition, I was patrolling the camp this morning, remembering the request from last night. I had sent someone to the camp and sent money, grain and cloth to your wife. The ten soldiers of the armor were also sent to the camp."

"ah?"

When Xi Zhicai heard this, he spoke out in surprise. This is why his lord's efficiency is too fast.

"What, maybe you don't like it?"

"Ha, no. I'm too surprised. I just lost my composure for a moment. Well, I didn't return all night last night, and Zhu Jing was very anxious. Since the lieutenant had sent money and goods, I thought, I would rather rush back to the other camp first and then come to the lieutenant to serve. Please agree!"

Faced with Yan Xing's inquiry, Xi Zhicai hurriedly covered it up and asked Yan Xing to rush back to the other camp. Yan Xing smiled and agreed immediately.

So, after Xi Zhicai left the tent of the captain, he hurried to his own tent in the camp.

Yan Xing's great fanfare made a name for himself, which was indeed conducive to changing his former unrestrained and idle image, but he was also alarmed. Xi Zhicai also planned to find an opportunity today to lure Han He to punish him in order to avenge his wife with words.

But now, with Yan Xing's reputation, Han He will definitely be cautious in his words and actions in the future and deliberately bypass himself.

Xi Zhicai sighed and thought, it seems that this matter can only be forgotten for the time being. He is now a lieutenant of the military planning history. If he retaliates for revenge as soon as he takes office, he will not only be displeased in his heart, but also ruins his already ordinary reputation in the army.

"Although I'm forgetting the matter, if that ruthless man dares to ignore military laws and be domineering in the future, he will also use military laws to punish him well!"

Xi Zhicai thought to himself.

After a few days, Yan Xing, who was busy, received a military newspaper, which stated that today, the soldiers who were patrolling the Fourth Field Army encountered a Baibo thief messenger who wanted to sneak into the city in the wild. The thief was very fierce. Several soldiers were killed and injured on his side, and then he worked together to kill him. He also seized a letter from the thief.

And Han He was on the list of deaths.

···

Recently, Fan Yong has felt that he has been having a very comfortable life. At least it is much better than the night when Yan Xing was forced to fight with a group of soldiers. Moreover, after Yan Xing's military officers took over the city's defense and military supplies, there was no other movement.

The Xiliang soldiers led civil servants, some strengthened the city walls, some cleared the moat, and other soldiers who entered the city led the gathered group of Dings and Zhuang to conduct simple battle formation training, never asking about other things that had nothing to do with military affairs.

Of course, the one who finally completely let Fan Yong down was the military officer named Xu who checked the military capital and the valley. He dared to report more books and then negotiated with the county officials responsible for handing over the transfer. A group of people privately divided the money and valleys he received. The military officer named Xu took the big head without hesitation.

After the division of the spoils, the county officials quickly reported the matter to Fan Yong. After learning the whole story, Fan Yong laughed instead of angry. It seemed that before he could send someone to investigate, the virtues of the Xiliang soldiers under the guise of "anti-thieves" had been exposed.

Report more money and food and steal empty salary. It seems that these Xiliang soldiers pretended to be anxious and righteous in the beginning of their term of office to confuse others. By the way, they also gave the county and temple officials and the big surnames in the city to intimidate them and make money in the future.

Otherwise, just a few days later, the Xiliang soldiers would be revealed.

Fan Yong heard that these Xiliang soldiers were poor people from the bitter and cold land. They had lived a poor life in Xiliang before, but now they rarely invade the heartland of the Central Plains. They were jealous of the wealth of the Central Plains prefectures and counties, and they wanted everything and dared to take anything. Before, they snatched everything in Yangcheng, Luoyang and other places, and they looked like they were ugly eating like fishing in the waters.

Now, these Xiliang soldiers who came to Jiangyi seem to be birds of a feather.

However, this is exactly in line with Fan Yong's wishes. As the chief guarding Jiang County, he never thought about how to protect the country and protect the people and defend against the Baibo thieves on the other side of the river. Instead, he was thinking about how to speed up the accumulation of wealth, and then used wealth to open the convenient door of the Hedong County Government to find a safe and decent job for himself. It is best to be transferred to the city in the southern border to be a county magistrate, where there are also a lot of patented salt and iron.

Now that the Xiliang soldiers are here, and they are poor people who are jealous of money. Before, many Fan Yong had a hard time putting aside and did not dare to take the big spoiled job of making money. They can do it in their name and dirty hands through consultation with the Xiliang soldiers.

To this end, Fan Yong tentatively prepared a valuable gift and sent county officials to the barracks outside the city. In the name of not being well-intentioned in the county temple that night, it would be best to hand it over to Yan Xing, the commander of the bandits.

As a result, Yan Xing not only personally met the county officials who gave gifts, but also changed his domineering style in the county temples and received a considerate manner. During this period, in addition to suggesting some tacit things that both sides knew, Yan Xing also prepared a generous gift when the county officials left, and asked the county officials to hand it over to Fan Yong to express his kindness in his heart.

In this way, Fan Yong also understood Yan Xing's intention. The county officials and the big surnames in Jiangyi would lead pigs, sheep, livestock, food, cloth, and then bring coins to the barracks outside the city to meet the captain Yan Xing.

Every time Yan Xing received the goods personally, without any hesitation, and took away all the goods sent by the county officials and the big surnames one by one.

The county officials who gave gifts couldn't help but feel secretly in their hearts, lamenting that these Xiliang soldiers were really gluttonous. However, after discussing with Fan Yong, they also thought that although these Xiliang soldiers were domineering and arrogant, they were wise and easy to deal with. They could bribe them with wealth and other goods first. When they got it later, they could not do without their wealth sources, so they could only cooperate with them obediently and let them act.

As the days of peace and well-being were over, just as Fan Yong felt that the time was almost right, he could send another big gift to the Xiliang soldiers outside the city, and invite the slander Yan Xing to enter the city again to discuss major events in the county temple.

Bad news is coming!

The county magistrate of Jiangyi ran into the lobby of the county temple from outside in panic, and had no longer had the majesty of being a county temple chief. The first thing he said when he saw Fan Yong, the leader in the hall was, "The county magistrate, something is wrong."

Fan Yong was sitting high in the hall. At this moment, he was tasting the sour plum soup that had just been prepared by the cook in the county temple. He presented it with the effect of cooling the heat. Unexpectedly, he was shocked by the county magistrate's screams. Although he did not directly spray the sour plum soup in his mouth in the hall, he was choked and coughed suddenly, even the official clothes on his chest were stained with some soup.

Holding back the anger in his heart, Fan Yong reached out and put down the porcelain bowl, stared at the rash county magistrate hatefully, and asked:
Chapter completed!
