Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Chao Yong did not ask Zhe Kecun to ask questions, but waited until the banquet was over before asking his bodyguards to invite Renzhong, Renli and Zhe Kecun.

    The three of them originally thought that the prince would summon the three of them after he had a long rest, and they were already preparing to leave with the others.  Stopped by the prince's soldiers, he hurriedly arranged his clothes to see the prince.

    When they arrived in the backyard, the three of them were waiting in the courtyard, and the soldiers went in to report.

    Everyone thought that the prince would divide them into two groups to receive them. After all, although they were all party members, they belonged to the Xixia and Song dynasties in the past.  The Zhejia fiefdom is next to Xixia. It can be said that there are constant disputes and their hands are covered with each other's blood.  Therefore, Zhe Kecun and brothers Renzhong and Renli have no kinship at all, but instead hate each other.

    Seeing the soldiers entering, Renli looked at Zhekecun proudly. He thought that the first person the prince summoned must be their brothers.  After all, their brothers helped Lu Junyi conquer six states in the Yinxia region, and Zhejia was only in three states.  Which one is more important is clear at a glance.

    Zhe Kecun also saw Renli's thoughts, but he didn't take it seriously.  Even if the Renzhong brothers take the lead, it will definitely be the Zhejia who will be trusted more in the future.  It has been nearly two hundred years since the family surrendered to the Han people, and they only occupied the land of three states.  However, brothers Renzhong and Renli represented the Xixia royal family, and it was impossible for Daliang not to be wary of them.

    Within a moment, the soldiers came out and said: "The prince invites three generals to come in."

    When the three of them heard this, they were all stunned, and then they stepped inside.

    When he entered the study, he saw Chao Yong sitting in the middle, and Lu Junyi was also accompanying him.

    "Xiaoguan Renzhong has met the prince."

    "Xiaguan Renli has met the prince."

    "At the end of the day, Zhe Kecun met the prince."

    Although Daliang did not have to kneel down, the three of them did not dare to neglect and made a long bow. However, the three of them did not speak in unison, and they seemed to be talking too much.

    Chao Yong smiled and said, "Excuse me. I won't stay long in Xiazhou, and I will be heading south to return to the court tomorrow. So I have invited the three of you. General Zhe will wait a moment."

    As he spoke, he looked at Renzhong and Renli and said, "If you brothers submit to me, you will become my subjects. Whether you are a Tibetan or a Dangxiang person, as long as you submit to me, you will become my subjects. The court must treat everyone equally, but  Our country in Daliang is governed by civil and military divisions. I wonder if you brothers want to lead the army in war or be on the political side? "

    Renzhong hurriedly raised his hands and said, "My brother is satisfied if the imperial court can leave a place for the party members to live. How dare he ask for anything from the imperial court?"

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I heard that you brothers are all proficient in Fanhan culture. They are also rare outstanding people, and the court should reuse them. Besides, your brothers have made great contributions to the court. If you want to lead the army, that is  Under my command, I can arrange ministries for you. If you want to serve in government, you can only wait for the imperial court to send you."

    Renzhong had obviously thought about it a long time ago. Hearing this, he said: "There are many elite soldiers and generals in Daliang. My brother's martial arts and military skills are ordinary, and he dare not do anything. However, we have dealt with many ministries in Ningxia Road and are willing to help the imperial court manage them."

    Chao Yong nodded and said: "If that's the case, then you just wait for the imperial court to send you. Once you have an official position, you just have to worry about your work. Don't worry about your background. I won't keep you here."

    Hearing this, Renzhong and Renli hurriedly cupped their hands and said, "I sincerely follow the prince's teachings."

    The two of them resigned, and Chao Yong turned to Zhe Kecun and said, "The Zhe family is a big family, and there must be a lot of people. I won't ask you whether you are a civil or a military officer. Not all of you are military generals if you are born in a general family. As long as you are a general.  If you have talent and knowledge, you can do anything whether you are a prime minister or a general."

    The discount can be deposited and heard.  He hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Prince, for your kindness."

    Chao Yong said: "However, I, Daliang, do not have hereditary positions. Whether the descendants of the Zhe family can continue to be officials or not, they have to go through the same selection as everyone else. To be a civil servant, you need to take the imperial examination, and to be a military soldier, you have to start as a soldier. Passed  Naturally, officials are responsible for selection by the imperial court. However, where they serve must be comprehensively considered by the imperial court, and may not be in Lin, Fu, or Fengzhou."

    When the discount came, the family discussed the matter.  They also felt that with the power of the Prince of Liang, they would probably not be allowed to inherit the three lands of Lin, Fu, and Feng. Otherwise, the merits of General Zhong would be enough to be hereditary.  However, they could only accept that Xixia's hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses were defeated. They were only in the land of three states and had only 20,000 soldiers and horses. They could not withstand the beams anyway.  As for Hedong Tian Hu, no one in the Zhe family took him seriously. Not to mention taking refuge with Tian Hu, even forming an alliance with Tian Hu felt it was a shame.  What's more, even if they form an alliance, they only have Hedong Road, while Daliang already has seven roads including Jingdong, Hebei, Jingxi, Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, and Ningxia.  Not to mention that there is no comparison between Daliang's soldiers and horses and Tian Hu's rabble, and they also have firearms to help.  No matter what, they are no match for Daliang.  Since we can't defeat him, then??Become one of them.

    "My clan sincerely submits and does not dare to ask for anything. Everything is decided by the court."

    Chao Yong nodded and said: "That's good. The generals of the Western Army are not hereditary, and most of them are generals from generation to generation. You have martial arts and military skills passed down from your family, and your starting point is much higher than that of ordinary soldiers. If it weren't for your unworthy descendants, you would be able to serve for generations.  Will."

    Zhe Kecun nodded and said: "What the prince taught me is that in fact, everyone in our clan starts as a soldier and is promoted based on their martial arts and military merit. Otherwise, the soldiers cannot be united."

    Chao Yong also stopped and asked: "What's the situation in Hedong now?"

    Zhe Kecun reported: "Hedong Tianhu took advantage of the demise of the Song Dynasty and the isolated states. He has occupied Taiyuan Prefecture and is continuing to send troops to the north to seize the Hedong Road. A few days ago, he sent people to lobby my brother and wanted to  We surrendered to them, and my brother killed the men he sent."

    Zhe Keqiu is also a decisive person. After deciding to submit to Daliang, he no longer thinks about other things.  However, his surrender was selective, as was Daliang, and Tian Hu was just a grassroots bandit, and he actually dared to send people to recruit them, even though he was promised a high official and a generous salary.  However, Zhe Keqiu was still furious and immediately ordered his men to kill the envoy sent by Tian Hu, and drove the remaining two minions back.

    Chao Yong nodded and said: "Tian Hu is dangerous to one side. When he returns, I will send troops to destroy him. You must guard Lin, Fu and Feng Prefectures to prevent the people under his rule from being harmed by him."

    Zhe Kecun said: "Both the Huoshan Army and the Baode Army surrendered to Daliang, but the two armies were insufficient in strength, so they asked us for help. The road to the east of Hedong was blocked by Tian Hu again. After General Lu captured the Yinxia area, my brother sent troops from Xixia  I took a detour to Yanyan Road and reported it to the court, but I haven¡¯t received a reply from the court yet.¡±

    Chao Yong said: "If you have spare strength, send troops to assist the second army in defense. The Zhong family has already sent out two general soldiers. If you work hard, you may not be able to become the general soldier in Hedong."

    Hearing the prince's encouragement, Zhe Kecun hurriedly said: "I will definitely die in repayment." (To be continued)
