Chapter 613: The mysterious carriage, the army begins
Chapter 613: Mysterious carriage, the army sets out
He was so stubborn that he was cut into pieces by His Majesty's order, and he was executed immediately! Even his backer, the dignified Minister of Civil Affairs, was implicated by him, and was directly dismissed by His Majesty! Is this earth-shattering?
Is it true that His Majesty really cares so much about a mere Shen Mansion?
But if that's the case, then why send yourself there?
In short, Geng Wang can't figure everything out.
Looking at the nearby Lin'an City, I was filled with hope and despair for a moment! What are you trying to do by yourself?
I thought it was the road to heaven, but I didn't expect it to be the abyss of death! Your Majesty is ruthless in dealing with him. How can he survive?
Perhaps, he had already made a mistake from the moment he left Lin'an and headed to Lianli City.
Unfortunately, I woke up too late.
"He who comes is stopped!"
I don't know when a carriage arrived in front of this team.
The leader of the imperial guards immediately stepped forward to stop!
The driver reined in the horse and the carriage stopped.
Then, the young man jumped out of the carriage and came forward, "I've seen the commander-in-chief!"
After saluting, the servant handed a jade tablet to the commander without waiting for him to ask.
After taking the jade token and looking at it, the commander's expression changed slightly, and then he pondered for a moment and said, "What's going on here!"
"Sir, my master and Geng Wang are old friends.
Now, he is about to be beheaded by His Majesty, so I have come to see Lord Geng Wang for the last time and hope that the commander will be kind and gracious!"
The boy said respectfully.
"Old old days?"
The commander looked at the carriage and his expression changed.
After a while, he handed the token back to the young man, "This Geng Wang is about to be executed. I don't want to be a bad person, so I will grant your request."
"Thank you, sir!"
The boy hurriedly saluted, and then said again, "Sir, my master is suffering from the cold and cannot get out of the carriage. I wonder if I can invite Sir Geng Wang to get in the carriage. I just need a cup of tea!"
"Can!"
Later, at the command of the commander, Geng Wang was lifted out of the prison car.
"Geng Wang, your old friend knows that you have committed a crime, so he came to see you one last time.
Just go ahead!"
The commander said calmly.
Geng Wang looked confused. He had left his hometown a long time ago and had no close friends in the court. Where did he get his old friends from?
However, since he was about to die, no one would deceive him, so he simply walked towards the carriage.
After entering the carriage, it was only after tea time that Geng Wang got out of the carriage.
His expression was still silent, but the confused look in his eyes before now turned into a somewhat miserable and bitter smile.
"Thank you very much, Commander-in-Chief!"
The boy bowed again and then drove away.
Geng Wang also returned to the prison car again, and the team continued to move forward...
Wang Huaizhen waited for three days on Chengdu Prefecture Road, and sure enough, a large amount of grain and grass was transported by a mighty carriage! Although everything has been going wrong since entering Chengdu Prefecture, a big problem has finally been solved. Wang Huaichun felt a little relieved.
Afterwards, Wang Huaicheng sent an order to the generals in the army. Tomorrow morning, the army will set off for Chengdu Fucheng!
Two days later, under the leadership of Wang Huaixun, tens of thousands of troops appeared outside Chengdu Fucheng again. At the north gate of Chengdu Fucheng, Shao Hongyuan led his generals to prepare for Wang Huaixun's arrival.
"General, if the coach comes this time, will it be detrimental to us?"
Beside Shao Hongyuan, a tooth general whispered.
Shao Hongyuan's already dignified expression became even more gloomy! Everyone knew that he, Shao Hongyuan, was Zhang Jun's general, but the general who came this time, Wang Huaichen, had always been at odds with Zhang Jun. If it caused some embarrassment to himself, it would not be impossible things.
In addition, Shao Hongyuan is also a little worried about the upcoming war!
In fact, Shao Hongyuan had a lot of dissatisfaction with Shen Tang in the past, especially what happened during the Sizhou War, which made Shao Hongyuan secretly hate Shen Tang.
However, after what happened in Chengdu Mansion, his impression of Shen Tang changed greatly.
First of all, Shen Tang's strength indeed exceeded his expectations. He was already aware of all the battles that took place after Shen Tang entered Chengdu Mansion. He knew very well that even he himself could not achieve Shen Tang's level.
Recovered local tribes, defeated Tubo several times, and destroyed Jiulong City! Shao Hongyuan was narrow-minded, but he was a soldier after all, and what soldiers admire most is the strong! Shen Tang was able to lead an invincible army of more than 100,000 people, and defeated the Tubo people If the army cannot be defeated, it deserves his admiration.
Secondly, although Shen Tang was the head coach, after coming to Chengdu Mansion, he not only did not make things difficult for himself, the defeated general, but he also had great trust in him.
Not only did he continue to sit in Chengdu Prefecture, he also gave himself a large amount of food and grass.
Shao Hongyuan was confident enough that if Shen Tang continued to guard Chengdu Prefecture, it would not be long before he could completely defeat the Tubo people and pacify Chengdu Prefecture.
However, he did not expect that the imperial court would issue an order to remove Shen Tang and replace him with Wang Huaizhen!
Shao Hongyuan knew Wang Huaichen very well.
After all, Shao Hongyuan had been in the army all his life and had many interactions with Wang Huaichun.
In fact, it can be said that this Wang Huaizhen is indeed a man who is good at fighting. Otherwise, he would not be Zhang Jun's opponent.
However, Wang Huai's greatest advantage lies in his own bravery rather than strategy and the overall situation.
In addition, Wang Huai was extremely proud and could not tolerate other people's suggestions.
Therefore, it is naturally a good thing if Wang Huai is gifted as a general.
It can be called a coach, but it is a big bad thing.
Especially after hearing what Wang Huaixun did in Maozhou, Shao Hongyuan almost had a splitting headache! The great situation created by Shen Tang was completely destroyed by Wang Huaixian.
Originally, Shen Tang's departure led to the departure of the Jin people, which greatly damaged the strength of the Song people.
However, under this situation, Wang Huaixun actually dealt with the local tribes without authorization, causing those local tribes that had already surrendered to leave again, further reducing the strength of the Song army.
There was no advantage in the comparison between the Song Dynasty and Tubo, but now our side is constantly breaking off its arms. How should the next war proceed?
Can Wang Huai really defeat Tubo?
"Why!"
Shao Hongyuan sighed in his heart, but now that things have come to this, what can he do?
"Boom, boom, boom..."
As the dull sound of horse hoofbeats sounded, the black army appeared in the sight of Shao Hongyuan and others.
"Get on your horse and go to meet the commander!"
Shao Hongyuan shouted softly, and then a group of people got on their horses and rushed towards the advancing army.
"General Shao Hongyuan, pay your respects to the commander-in-chief!"
Before arriving at the army, Shao Hongyuan took the initiative to speak!
However, the army seemed to have not seen Shao Hongyuan and his party, and ran straight past...
