Lu Ping and his subordinate Lao Zhou stood on the steps of the governor's mansion and saw a large group of hundreds of armored soldiers walking towards the military camp to the west.
With his javelin-like figure, powerful steps, and sharp eyes, Lu Ping knew at a glance that he was an elite soldier, and he was an elite soldier like he had never seen before.
The roaring footsteps ranged from near to far, and the entire formation was extremely majestic and neat.
Wherever the soldiers went, the people of Dengzhou cheered endlessly, because they had experienced the most strict military discipline and the most lenient towards the people.
Master Zhao's elite soldiers finally returned.
The people of Dengzhou have not forgotten that it was this army that rescued Dengzhou from Kong Ni.
It was the army that gave porridge to the whole city, and it was Master Zhao who gave money and food to the people to repair houses, repair city walls, and renovate roads.
They were able to get through the most difficult times.
Therefore, they gave a warm welcome to Lord Zhao's soldiers when they returned to Dengzhou.
Every common people they met saluted and greeted the soldiers, and the atmosphere was warm and touching.
The soldiers of the Polu Army were even more proud because of this.
They walked more and more powerfully, and the heavy iron armor on their bodies seemed to be nothing.
Lu Ping looked at everything in front of him with mixed feelings in his heart.
This was the best mutual respect between the military and civilians he had ever seen in his life.
In recent years, the imperial court has been in arrears of pay and has gradually lost control over its generals and soldiers.
Soldiers have continued to plunder, rape and humiliate the people.
In many cases, military generals have deliberately allowed soldiers to loot and steal money and food.
Just for its use.
The rebels were like bandits, so that the common people were frightened when they saw the officers and soldiers, and fled immediately.
The name of the officers and soldiers was already compared with the rebels, and even the princes of the court could not help but mention it.
There is no other way.
The imperial court's best means of controlling its soldiers and generals cannot pay out food and salary on time.
The imperial court has also lost its greatest reliance on controlling military power.
Now its ability to contain them has been greatly reduced.
But the harmonious relationship between the Polu army soldiers and the people in front of him made Lu Ping jealous.
This was the best situation he hoped for the Ming army and the people.
This situation showed that the people supported and trusted the officials and soldiers.
And the imperial court became more and more stable.
But now this situation has appeared to the soldiers under Zhao Lie's command, making Lu Ping feel extremely aggrieved and angry.
A toubob who was born as a Denglai general can do this, but what about the officers and soldiers.
Why can't the army do this?
Thinking of this, Lu Ping couldn't help but admire the young Zhao Lie.
A high-ranking official in the Ming Dynasty, like Zhao Lie, was a second- and third-rank official.
No matter whether he was civil or military, he had many wives and concubines, and his mansion was luxuriously built.
These operations require a lot of money and food.
Where does this money and food come from?
If you think about it with your buttocks, you will know that it all comes from greed.
On the other hand, Zhao Lie only had a wife and a side room, and Lu Ping had never entered the house.
But from the front door, it looked like an ordinary house.
There wasn't even a stone lion or other beast in front of the gate.
It was just that the house was bigger.
In addition, Zhao Lie almost never had banquets outside.
Some entertainment activities are arranged in the official office.
It can be seen that Zhao Lie is not one of those people who have nothing to do, and his achievements today are not a fluke.
This person is tenacious and decisive, and he can assess the situation and is a hero.

But the more outstanding Zhao Lie was, the more Lu Ping was afraid of him, because it was already an open matter that Zhao Lie was at odds with the imperial court.
If Zhao Lie rebelled, Lu Ping dared to say that there would be a bloody storm in the North of the Ming Dynasty immediately.
The Lai rebellion would turn the Ming Dynasty into chaos if Zhao Lie rebelled.
I am afraid that the Ming Dynasty will never have peace, and even the thought that the Ming Dynasty may be overthrown keeps flashing in Lu Ping's heart.
Now Zhang Keda was killed in Gu'an, and Denglai's five thousand soldiers died together.
Denglai no longer had any force to rely on.
The imperial court no longer had the money and food to rebuild Dengzhou Town.
Therefore, Zhao Lie was appointed by the imperial court as the commander-in-chief of Denglai and took charge of Denglai town.
Lu Ping could understand the intentions of the ministers regarding this decision of the imperial court, but Lu Ping was not optimistic about what kind of person Zhao Lie was.
Lu Ping believed that he would never be controlled by the court's petty tactics.
Since Lu Ping was extremely disappointed with the princes of the court, he thought about what means he could use to restrain Zhao Lie.
He suddenly discovered that he, with a thousand members of the Imperial Guard, could do nothing against Zhao Lie. unless. . . .
At this time, the roar of horse hooves sounded from the north, and a large number of fully armored soldiers came on horseback.
The flag flying first was the flag of Zhao Lie, the commander of Denglai Dusi.
Zhao Lie came.
Lu Ping led his men to the foot of the steps and gave way to the main entrance.
The hundreds of guards who arrived first surrounded the gate and covered everyone.
Zhao Lie, wearing the official robe of a second-grade military attache, got off the horse with neat movements.
The big black tower and a middle-aged guard guarded him on the left and right, and more than 20 other guards followed him.
Hundreds of guards came up from behind and entered the governor's yamen first.
The soldiers guarding the entrance of the yamen were about to stop him.
Zhao Lie's guard leader raised his hand, and a group of guards directly took the place of those soldiers.
These soldiers in the governor's standard camp were speechless.
Take a look, and then step aside.
Lu Ping felt hatred in his heart.
Now Governor Denglai probably doesn't care about Zhao Lie anymore.
What kind of world is this?
A warrior can be so domineering.
Zhao Lie came to the official hall accompanied by a large number of guards.
At this time, Chen Yingyuan and Zhang Guoyuan had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Zhao Lie's guards rushing into the official hall along with Zhao Lie, Zhang Guoyuan's face was gloomy and he felt resentful in his heart.
He was too domineering and had no respect for superiors and inferiors.
He was still not an official of the Ming Dynasty.
Chen Yingyuan also felt extremely uncomfortable.
Although he had experienced many ups and downs in the officialdom, Zhao Lie was the first person to be so wary of his superiors and show it off.
However, thinking about the various measures taken by the imperial court against Zhao Lie, Lao Chen felt relieved.
The examples of Yuan Chenghuan and Mao Wenlong were right in front of him, who was not afraid of them.
"Greetings to the Governor and Lord Guard."
Zhao Lie respectfully bowed his hands to Chen Yingyuan and Zhang Guoyuan.
However, Zhao Lie did not kneel down to Chen Yingyuan and Zhang Guoyuan.
Zhang Guoyuan's eyes twitched, and he finally couldn't help it anymore, "Mr.
Zhao, isn't this the etiquette for you to meet in civil and military meetings in the Ming Dynasty?"
Although Zhang Guoyuan was very angry, this time is different from the past.
Zhang Guoyuan just nodded and did not directly say that you should kneel down and pay respects.
"Oh, I secretly thought that the Ming army who was fighting for the country could not kneel in front of anyone.

When I think of the unparalleled loyalty and bravery of Zhang Keda and You Shilu, they gave some corpses to eat meat, and the officials who corrupted the Ming Dynasty to such an extent knelt down, Zhao Lie is very shameless, what do you think, Zhang Zhenshou?"
Although Zhao Lie had a smile on his face, he was merciless.
"You, you are just a vulgar warrior who dares to discuss national affairs."
Zhang Guoyuan was furious.
"Master Zhang, the warrior in front of you beheaded thousands of slaves and annihilated a hundred thousand rebels.
This is how you slandered a hero of the Ming Dynasty."
Zhao Lie's smile disappeared and his expression was cold.
Yu Dabao next to him took a step forward and glared at each other.
Zhang Guoyuan was an internal minister, and the person behind him was the emperor.
He also glared at Zhao Lie angrily.
"Well, today is the day Long Live Lord's decree has arrived in Dengzhou, so let's ask for it."
Chen Yingyuan hurriedly moved away, and the two of them were just joking when they clashed here.
At this time, a middle-aged eunuch, accompanied by his attendants, walked out of the back hall.
He walked calmly and had a solemn face.
It looked like he had been walking in the palace for a long time.
Chen Yingyuan, Zhang Guoyuan, Zhao Lie and others all knelt down to listen to the order.
The imperial edict is extremely simple.
Zhao Lie got rid of all the nonsense and knew that he is now the right governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies of the Ming Dynasty and the commander-in-chief of Denglai.
His father Zhao Haiming was given the casual title of General Wuwei, and his mother Zhao Qin was given the title of General Wuwei.
He was granted the title of second-grade concubine, and his wife Alexandra was granted the title of second-grade concubine.
In short, the wife and yinzi have been granted the title.
In Mandarin, the Zhao family will be extremely graceful.
But when you think about the dilapidated situation in Denglai today, you can imagine that this is all useless red tape.
Therefore, after Zhao Lie kowtowed after listening to the imperial edict, he took the imperial edict expressionlessly and handed it to Zhao Da.
The corners of Zhang Guoyuan's eyes twitched when he saw it.
This was too sad, but thinking about the emperor's good intentions in appointing Zhao Lie, he should bear with it.
"Congratulations to Mr.
Zhao.
We will still have to rely on Mr.
Zhao for military affairs in Denglai in the future."
Chen Yingyuan said with a smile.
Zhang Guoyuan didn't say a word.
He hated Zhao Lie to his core.
"Military affairs in Denglai are his responsibilities.
Of course Zhao Lie dare not ignore them.
Of course, Zhao Lie has made some arrangements for the safety of Denglai.
Sirs, please don't make a fuss."
After Zhao Lie finished speaking, he glanced sideways at Zhang Guoyuan.
Zhang Guoyuan was holding his breath.
Was this just for him?
However, he could not afford to endure it and ruined Long Live Master's plan.
"Sir Zhao, the location of Denglai is very important.
To the northeast is the Jiannu and to the east is North Korea.
The Jiannu are often invading and causing trouble.
I'm afraid I will have to send troops to rescue you, Mr.

Zhao."
Of course Chen Yingyuan knew what the emperor meant, so he immediately said a few words, "If something happens to Dongjiang in Gyeonggi Province, haha, it's not like you can't shirk Zhao Lie, now you are the commander-in-chief of Denglai."
"Zhao Lie will not shirk his responsibility to protect the country and the people."
Zhao Lie's words were concise and concise, and it would be useless to talk to these two people.
"Haha, when the time comes, our family will see if Mr.
Zhao shirks.
If Mr.
Zhao resists and cannot avoid the fight, don't blame our family for hurting others."
Zhang Guoyuan said sarcastically.
Zhao Lie looked at him.
He really didn't have any fighting spirit towards a mutilated eunuch, so just let it go.
Needless to say, there will be a celebration banquet in the evening.
Who dares not to give face to the civil and military officials in Denglai?
Nowadays, the Zhao family covers the sky with one hand in Denglai.
If you offend the governor and the guard, you will have to wear your shoes afterwards.
If you offend the Zhao family, the Zhao family will make you appear in the world and repay it, so the building where the banquet was held was packed.
At the banquet, many officials came forward to toast and greet Zhao Lie with a smile on his face, but he only had wine in his glass from beginning to end.
Of course, no one dared to persuade him to drink.
On the second day, Zhao Lie led a group of generals and generals from the Denglai General Military Mansion and Denglai Dusi to the Martyrs' Shrine in Dengzhou to solemnly pay homage to the two late generals Zhang Ke and You Shilu.
This is the end of the entire process of Zhao Lierong being appointed as the commander-in-chief of Denglai. s: Thanks to Young Master Sanhuan and Jinghong 2016 for the 100 reward, and thanks to Kuaijishanren 007 and the undiscovered reward.
