Chapter 417 The Tempered General Tuwan

Chapter 417

Not only Qin's second brother was promoted, but Cheng Yaojin and others were also promoted. The former Brigade Marshal Zhao also followed Yang Qian to Goguryeo and was promoted to captain.

This naturally made Brigadier Zhao very convinced of the Shangguan Yang Qian who was both civil and military.

After a group of people exchanged pleasantries at the gate of the camp, they headed towards the Zuotunwei camp.

"My dear brother, the temper of General Tuwan is different from General Lai and General Zhou.

He is a straightforward person, but he has a somewhat violent personality and is quite stubborn."

"However, his military achievements are not inferior to those of General Lai. He can be regarded as one of the most famous generals in the Sui Dynasty."

Qin's second brother rode his horse and walked side by side with Yang Qian, and quietly told Yang Qian all the information he had learned.

Hearing this, Yang Qian felt a toothache. "I mean, second brother Qin, don't you have any good news? If communication is difficult, then my job as a supervisor will be difficult."

"Who says otherwise? This General Tuwan was dismissed from his post because he contradicted His Majesty before. Later, he was appointed again because he wanted to launch an army to attack Goguryeo."

While he was talking, he arrived at the Zuotunwei camp. Before he entered the camp, a general rushed over to greet him.

"I, General Duguji of Zuotun Guard, have met Yang Jianjun. On the order of the general, I would like to ask the Jianjun to go to the big tent to report."

"Thank you, General Dugu. It's just my subordinates..." Yang Qian returned the salute and looked back at his followers and the thousand elite cavalry behind him.

"Don't worry, supervisor. The general has already vacated enough tents after accepting His Majesty's orders." Duguji summoned his generals to lead the way.

As for Yang Qian, he only ordered Qin Qiong and Zhao Lieutenant to follow him to the Chinese army's tent.

"Your Majesty Yang Qian, please see General Tuwan." After Yang Qian stepped into the Chinese Army's tent, he respectfully saluted the thick-bearded man who firmly occupied the position of commander of the Chinese Army's tent.

Tu Wanxu waved his hand, looked at Yang Qian and said with a smile.

"Yang Jianjun, there is no need to be polite, please take a seat quickly. I really didn't expect that I have proposed to Your Majesty several times to make my old brother Yu Juluo a general.

Your Majesty has rejected all of them, so it would be better for you, as a new celebrity, to join our army as a supervisor."

Looking at Tu Wanxu's smile and hearing these words, Yang Qian didn't know what kind of expression he should use to treat the coach.

Fortunately, Dugu Ji, who was on the side, cleared his throat and said, "Speaking of which, our Sixteenth Guards were able to easily win the northern expedition to Goguryeo, thanks to Zheng Guogong and Yang Jianjun."

"If Duke Zheng hadn't invented the Thunderbolt Chariot, I'm afraid how many brothers would have died in a foreign country just by crossing the Liao River and capturing Liaodong City."

When Tu Wanxu heard this, he nodded. "That's right. Many of the soldiers in the Northern Expedition have a good impression of your father and son."

Yang Qian also exchanged a few polite words and decided to go straight into the tunnel alone.

"They are all for the court and serving His Majesty's orders. I am here to receive His Majesty's orders and serve as the supervisor of the army."

"I will definitely do my duty and will not interfere with the general's military affairs."

Tu Wanxu was slightly startled and couldn't help but laugh. "I really didn't expect that you, a civil servant, speak as crisply as a warrior."

"As long as you do what you say, I won't make it difficult for you."

Stepping out of the Chinese army tent, Yang Qian let out a long breath of turbid air in his chest, but there wasn't much of a smile on his face.

This General Tuwan was so straightforward in what he said.

Just tell Yang Qian directly to take care of the messy things you supervise the army.

As for military matters, you'd better not bother me. I've been on the battlefield for decades, and I don't need you, a young man, to tell me what to do.

Well, although this is a bit exaggerated, the meaning is not far different.

Tu Wanxu's statement naturally made Yang Qian feel very uncomfortable. After all, I am not the first brother on the battlefield.

He also made plans and plans for General Laihuer, and even vomited and wept so that the partial army of the Sui Dynasty could accomplish great things in the hinterland of Goguryeo.

As a result, when he arrived in front of Tuwan, an experienced driver, he was treated as a little kid who didn't understand anything.

Even if Yang Qian is a humble gentleman, his mood at this moment is not very beautiful.

I just thought that I would have a verbal conflict with the coach before even Dong left.

That would make people look down upon themselves. After all, Tu Wanxu was a big boss in the army, and he was just a young military supervisor who entered the army for the second time.

"It seems that this trip to Jiangnan is not as good as going to Goguryeo." Yang Qian let out a long and leisurely breath.

When Qin Qiong saw Yang Qian acting like this, he opened his mouth to persuade him.

"My dear brother, you don't have to be like this. You are the supervisor of the army appointed by His Majesty. Although your main duties are to monitor punishments and rewards, and report violations. But you are also a member of the army, and you have the rights and responsibilities to consult on military aircraft."

"Thank you, Second Brother Qin, for reminding me. Let's leave it like this for now. As long as General Tu can win every battle, then I will be happy to be a comfortable supervisor."

Three days later, the Zuotun Guards, with 35,000 infantry and 10,000 elite cavalry, finally broke camp and left Dongdu, heading south of the Yangtze River.

When the army rushed all the way and arrived at Jiangdu, the time had already changed from late autumn to the end of October.

Yang Qian finally met Jiangdu Cheng and Jiangdu Palace Supervisor Wang Shichong in the Chinese army's tent.

Yang Qian did not expect that the traitor in history had a good appearance, but he looked more like a scribe than a general.

He brought a large amount of luggage and a series of bad news.

Liu Yuanjin, a native of Yuhang, also raised troops in Jiangnan to respond to Yang Xuangan and sent troops to attack Runzhou (now Zhenjiang, Jiangsu).

Fortunately, the city defense of Runzhou was strong and Liu Yuanjin could not attack it for a long time, so he sent leaders Zhu Xie, Guan Chong and others to attack and plunder the surrounding counties.

"Five days ago, Thief Liu had broken Qu'a and obtained a large amount of weapons and food, and he became more and more unscrupulous."

Runzhou City has been surrounded by people. Seeing that there are no opponents around, Runzhou City cannot be attacked for a long time.

Wang Shichong was very worried that Liu Yuanjin had already set his sights on Jiangdu, across the river.

There is already a dock on the south bank of Yangzijin, although there are not many ships. In addition, there are water warships patrolling Yangzijin, so it is considered safe for the time being.

But I am not afraid of ten thousand, I am just afraid that if they find an opportunity to cross the Yangtze River and go straight to Jiangdu.

"If those thieves are allowed to cross the river, harass Jiangdu, and disrupt His Majesty's journey, I am afraid that neither the lower officials nor the generals will be able to bear the consequences..."

Wang Shichong talked so much that Tu Wanxu's eyes fell on the map and his brows furrowed.

"How many ships do they have? How many defenders are there in Runzhou City?"

"It has not yet exceeded 100. There are less than 5,000 county soldiers in Runzhou City, but there are 60,000 to 70,000 rebels outside the city."

Duguji couldn't help but smile coldly. "It's just a thief and a thief, what's the point."

"General, the last general will lead 10,000 elite troops and cross the river first to attack the enemy."

"Why are you panicking? Are there any bandits in the Jiangxinzhou area?"

"General, Jiangxin Island is difficult to navigate through the mud. Even if the rebels try to climb up, it will be useless."

"In this case, our army will rest here for three days before going to Yangzijin to camp and wait for an opportunity to cross the Yangtze River and go south to suppress the bandits."

(The following number of words is free) This is the second update. Thank you all for your directness. I am still traveling. I hope I can get home in time for a hot meal in the evening...
