Chapter 598 Xiliang Ma Mengqi, take your dog's life
Chapter 598 If you are not a member of the army, you don’t know how stupid the army is.
Zhang Lu never felt anxious.
Even if he saw an army rushing to support Chang'an from halfway, he didn't even blink.
"Master! General Han has sent word that our army will attack Chang'an... Look..."
The tall and thin man standing in front of Zhang Lu's high sedan chair was dressed in Taoist robes, had a sparse beard, and held a feather fan in his hand. He looked quite Taoist.
But this person is by no means a believer in the Five Pecks of Rice Way.
He is a pure scholar... He is also Zhang Lu's military advisor and a highly respected think tank by Zhang Lu. His name is Yan Pu.
Dressing up like this is just to confuse the group of believers in the army, so you can communicate with them better.
Regardless of the fact that Zhang Lu has been gathering in Hanzhong for many years, in fact Zhang Lu's responsibilities in Hanzhong are mostly to preach and control people's hearts. When it comes to truly dealing with people's livelihood and political affairs, they still have to rely on Zhang Lu's subordinates.
During this period of time, Hanzhong was a truly communist regime.
Not only is he extremely cohesive, but he also has a thorough understanding of the general trend of the world and a clear understanding of his own abilities - he is not good at strategizing, marching and fighting, so he leaves these things to his cronies.
Leave it to those who are capable in all aspects.
With this arrangement, Zhang Lu's ruling group each performed its own duties, and Hanzhong was able to develop so rapidly under his rule.
And he was happy to be his master and enjoy the treatment respected by thousands of people.
"Since we are about to attack the city...then we must listen to the military advisor."
Zhang Lu ate fruit leisurely and waved to the generals and counselors at his feet.
As the chief military adviser, Yan Pu knew that Zhang Lu would give such an order, so he put a smile on his lips and shouted to the man:
"Master Shijun has an order. The army must obey the orders of my military counselor!"
"Since General Han Sui went to block Chang'an's reinforcements, our army cannot waste General Han's kindness——"
It seemed that the careless Yan Pu had really received Zhang Lu's orders. After obtaining the command of the army, his eyes became extremely sharp. He arranged the four armies in an orderly manner:
"Yang Baiyang appoints two generals!"
"The end is here!"
Two strong men, who were similar in appearance but significantly stronger than the scrawny congregants in the army, stepped forward.
Both of them were brothers of Yang Song, another counselor in Zhang Lu's army. It was Yang Song who promoted them through his position.
"We also ask two generals to lead the Taiping Camp and the two armies in Junying to take the west route, block the reinforcements from Chang'an in the northwest, and cover up the southwest of Chang'an as a feint attack!"
"As you command!"
After receiving the order, two generals, Yang Ren and Yang Bai, quickly led nearly 30,000 light infantry among the 100,000-strong army, and quickly killed towards the northwest.
Most of the troops they led were improvised troops. Zhang Lu just gave them the names of Taiping and Yujun, and allowed these fanatical believers to willingly serve as cannon fodder in this battle.
Yan Pu saw the two armies leaving and looked to the other side with a smile:
"Generals Zhang Wei and Yang Ang!"
"The end is here!"
Two more strong generals walked out of the army, but these two men were obviously dressed more formally than the previous two Yang Baiyang and Ren - the fact is that Zhang Wei, as Zhang Lu's younger brother, actually had the highest status in Zhang Lu's army.
general, and Yang Ang was Yan Pu's confidant. Whenever there was military merit to be gained, Yan Pu would leave the opportunity to Yang Ang.
Yang Ang chuckled, squinted his eyes and looked at the elite infantry in the distance, seeming to be thinking, and then said:
"The two generals also requested to lead the Shangqing Battalion and the Lingbao Battalion with a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses, and march directly to Anmen in the south city of Chang'an. They must defeat the defenders as quickly as possible——"
"Take orders!"
Yang Ang and Zhang Wei looked at each other with half-smiles, and most of them could see the joy in each other's eyes. There was military merit to be gained. They were naturally very proud, and their steps were much more brisk when they left.
"The rest of the army is commanded by General Yang Song and is responsible for defending the division... General Yang Song, do you have any objections?"
If anyone else looks at it, there is absolutely nothing wrong with Yan Pu's arrangement. He feigns attacks all the way, blocking the way of reinforcements, putting pressure on Chang'an, and attacking with a large force from the front. He quickly defeats the defenders with the advantage of his strength. Chang'an is surrounded by mountains on both sides.
, surrounded by water, if there are no particularly serious mistakes, Chang'an should win.
However... if you are not a member of the army, you don't know how to be a fool in the army - Yang Song had blue veins popping up on his forehead, and when he looked at Yan Pu, he wanted to kill him directly.
Yan Pu was targeting himself, Yang Songguang could tell from this simple arrangement.
However... at this moment, military orders were issued one after another next to Zhang Lu. Yang Song, who remained silent, could only threaten Yan Pu with his eyes.
"General Yang, do you have any objections?"
Zhang Lu's dull voice came, and Yang Song's face instantly became amiable. He smiled and replied:
"No, no! It's an honor for Mr. Yang to stay with Master Jun. In this case, let's act as soon as possible..."
Yang Song gritted his teeth and said with a smile, while Zhang Lu nodded slowly on the sedan:
"Here's my order. The army will move forward and follow the military advisor's instructions. I'm tired and want to take a nap."
Zhang Lu said leisurely, and the army burst into cheers, as if they had captured Chang'an.
The army moved on again, and there were only 80,000 horsemen and soldiers in front, divided into two groups, heading towards Chang'an.
Yanpu and Yangsong walked side by side in front of Zhang Lu's sedan, surrounded by a group of so-called "Dharma protectors". They looked quite beautiful.
Zhang Lu's snoring could be heard, and he was still able to sleep under such circumstances. But even so, the people around him didn't complain at all.
They recited the scriptures and spells of Tianyi devoutly. Amidst the waves of calm chanting, Yang Song grinned and said to Yan Pu beside him:
"Master Yan, your arrangement today...isn't it different from what we discussed before?"
"Did you forget the 100,000 yuan sent to your house that night, military advisor, or... the military advisor has other ideas? Why don't you discuss it with Mr. Yang?"
"Haha... General Yang, you can't say that... You and I are working under the emperor now, so let's stop the money exchange... If General Han knows, the nugget gold in his hand is not even worth one hundred thousand dollars.
If you fail to resist, General Han may be quite angry."
When Yang Song heard Yan Pu Ruo's pointed words, he wanted to take out the sword in his hand and kill this greedy man immediately.
"Master Yan... Yang, I would like to advise you not to be greedy... After all, the thousands of pieces of porcelain in the military counselor's home are all treasures that Yang obtained from elsewhere..."
The two people obviously had something to say, and they clearly regarded the battle in Chang'an as an opportunity to trade military exploits.
Yang Song now hated this Yan Pu. It was obviously Yang Song who was the first to follow Zhang Lu, but Zhang Lu trusted this Yan Pu even more.
What's even worse is... Yang Song himself is an extremely greedy person. He has followed Zhang Lu for many years and has plundered so much wealth from the people.
But now the strong intervention of Yan Pu and Han Sui has made Yang Song's position in the army unsafe. A tough guy like him can only spend money to stabilize his family's position in Zhang Lu's army.
But...it happened that this Yan Pu raised the price from the ground, and wanted to lower his own price with the nugget gold that Han Sui offered——
"Bullshit nugget gold! How could Han Sui, who has been in this ungrateful place like Xiliang for so many years, get nugget gold!"
It's a pity that even if Yang Song wanted to say these words, he couldn't say them, because Zhang Lu had already handed over full command to Yan Pu, and the other party had the absolute initiative.
Yang Song felt itching with hatred when he thought of this.
