Chapter 939 Song Zhilu Goes to Wuguan

There are many people in the Wuguan school grounds. The black-armored soldiers of the brigade are changing their uniforms. What awaits them will be a brand-new pair of Red Flame Army armor.

The sunshine above the head is very warm, making people feel warm in this spring season.

Qi Guang and Han Bai were summoning the officers to lecture, and a large number of lieutenants, lieutenants, and centurions were walking around.

Many acquaintances were greeting each other and laughing and joking.

That's right, four thousand cavalry troops drawn from the left and right cavalry armies have arrived at Wuguan, and they will be added to the Red Flame Army according to the previous plan.

Chen Yue, Chu Yucheng, and Zhuge Muddlehead were standing leisurely on the edge of the school field, looking very contented.

Chu Yucheng chuckled and said: "Xue Meng and Bu Wenshan were quite generous this time and gave many good hands to the Red Flame Army."

Chu Yucheng saw several familiar faces in this team of 4,000 people, all of whom were rising stars in the cavalry.

I saw that Xue Meng and Bu Wenshan had transferred many elites to Qi Guang this time.

Zhuge was confused and joked at the side: "The prince always said that every time he asked for troops from these generals, they would pick them up and hold them in their hands and not hand them over.

In my humble opinion, the two generals Xue and Bu know the general situation very well, and the prince will not be able to say that in the future."

Chenyue grinned and said nothing, but he was indeed happy in his heart.

"Sir, you haven't said anything yet." Chu Yucheng winked and said, "Among the entire Liang army, there is probably someone else who is digging around, right?"

"Hahaha~"

The two of them laughed at the same time, and they were the only ones who dared to make fun of Chen Yue in front of him.

"Bold!" Chen Yue pretended to be angry: "Do you still have any etiquette? You will not be allowed to eat tonight!"

"Hey, hey, I didn't say who it was. Prince, please don't put a hat on yourself." Chu Yucheng said in a pretentious manner.

"That's right, it's unreasonable to not even give you food." Zhuge continued in confusion.

Chenyue rolled his eyes for a while and was too lazy to answer any more.

After this addition, the size of the Red Flame Army will roughly return to 8,000 people.

Moreover, the new four thousand people will be disrupted and reorganized with the original four thousand people to speed up the running-in among the soldiers.

In fact, in the Liang Army, it is normal for soldiers to be transferred from several main cavalry armies.

For example, the current deputy generals of the Tianlang Army and the Xuanwu Army were all from the Daliang Dragon Cavalry, and many of the first-level officers in the left and right cavalry armies were from the Snow Guards, Red Flame Army, and Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

Therefore, adding left and right cavalry troops to the Red Flame Army will not cause any estrangement or resentment, nor will there be a significant reduction in combat strength.

"Your Highness, look at Qi Guang, the corner of his mouth is almost grinning. He doesn't know what he is talking about." Chu Yucheng pointed at Qi Guang from a distance and said.

"Damn, we've added a large number of elites. It's strange to be unhappy." Chen Yue curled his lips.

Just as a few people were laughing and chatting, an old laughter came from behind:

"Your Majesty, you two adults, why are you so happy?"

Chenyue turned his head in shock: "Master Song, why are you here?"

Chu Yucheng and Zhuge were confused and confused. From the beginning of the war to now, Song Zhilu had been sitting in the rear handling government affairs, but had never been to the front line.

Chenyue didn't recommend that he come to the front line. He was already old, so he shouldn't have any more accidents.

"Chu Duhu, Mr. Zhuge." Song Zhilu bowed his hands and said with a smile:

"I have something to discuss with the prince, so I just want to send you some good news to make everyone happy again."

"good news?"

Chenyue picked up his hands with great interest: "Tell me about it."

Song Zhilu fumbled and took out a military report from his sleeve and handed it to Chen Yue's hand:

"General Liang sent someone to deliver a great victory at Tianlang Pass. Nearly 20,000 enemies were killed. The Yan army collapsed. Tuoba Hong outside Tianlang Pass has stopped attacking the city and is organizing his army to defend."

"Oh? What a great victory!"

The eyes of Chenyue and the other two people brightened up, and they quickly took the military report and started reading it.

After a while, Chen Yue clicked his tongue and said in wonder:

"Tsk, tsk, Jiang is still too old. General Liang actually dared to let the Yan army enter the city and then use the advantage of the terrain to surround and annihilate them. I'm afraid most people don't have the guts to take this risk."

After all, Tianlang Pass is Youzhou's barrier. There are too many variables in letting the enemy troops enter the city.

What if the Liang army failed to seal the city gate? What if the Yan army was more powerful than expected? What if the ambush failed...

These are all potential variables, but there are no ifs in things in this world. If you win, you will win.

Moreover, Liang Suichao still achieved a great victory in a situation full of variables, comparable to the great victory at Wuguan not long ago.

"An old man in a family is like a treasure. It seems that this sentence is also applicable on the battlefield." Zhuge smiled confusedly.

"Hahaha~"

Everyone laughed.

After the laughter subsided, Chen Yue accompanied Song Zhilu for a walk on the edge of the school ground and asked softly: "Master Song just said that he came to Wuguan to discuss something with me. What's the matter?"

"Ahem."

Song Zhilu coughed a few times and said: "Your Majesty, since the Yan army marched to the border, the two sides have been at war for several months. But as of today, we in Liangdi have not received even a copper plate or a bucket of food from the court."

The atmosphere among the few people who had been laughing and joking just now suddenly became a little gloomy.

No matter how powerful Chenyue is and how powerful the Liangdi border troops are, they are still your territory of Dazhou. Even if you don’t send a single soldier, you won’t even be given the most basic military pay, food and grass.

Chenyue squinted his eyes and asked with a chill in his voice: "Are the military rations in Liaodong and Beiliang enough?"

Song Zhilu nodded: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. With the military rations stored in Liaodong's Kashuo Prefecture in the past two years, maintaining the army for the campaign will not be a big problem.

Logistics supplies are coordinated by the governors of each state and Leng Guinan, which can ensure that the army goes on an expedition without any hindrance."

After hearing this, several people breathed a sigh of relief. At least it didn't affect the war.

Zhuge muddle-headedly said softly: "What we have is our business. What if this war lasts for a year or two and the court still doesn't pay a penny?

We only have so much money in Liangdi, we can’t let it all be used up.”

Everyone knows that wars are going on everywhere now, but the court cannot favor one over the other. It is unreasonable not to pay a penny.

Chen Yue said coldly: "Urgent! Send it to the Ministry of Revenue. The Ministry of War will remind you every three days for official documents. If you don't get it, you will continue to push. Just say that the Yan army will break through at any time. It doesn't matter if you scare the court occasionally."

The imperial court openly claimed that it had no money, but no one knew how much money the princes, nobles, sects of the capital, and the Jiangnan family had.

Is it okay to use some for military pay?

Song Zhilu said softly: "Isn't this a bit too direct?"

Zhuge grinned in confusion: "Master Song, don't worry, the current court does not dare to make any small moves against the prince."
