Chapter 614: Arriving in Fucheng and meeting the coach
"General Shao?"
A voice woke up Shao Hongyuan who was frightened and angry. He looked over, but it was Bian Xi and Xin Qiji who came to him.
"Why is General Shao here?"
Bian Xi asked.
Originally, the relationship between them and Shao Hongyuan was not harmonious, but after all, they both worked under Shen Tang not long ago, which made their relationship a lot easier.
Shao Hongyuan heard this and laughed at himself, "Haha, when the commander comes, how dare I not come to greet him, but it seems that the commander doesn't appreciate it!"
Bian Xi and Bian Xi looked at each other. Wang Huaizhen was among the front troops and had already passed this place. He actually ignored Shao Hongyuan?
Even if they get along with two factions, but now working together, this is a bit too much.
"The commander-in-chief should have entered the city by now. General Shao, let's go together to meet him!"
Bian Xi took the initiative to invite me.
Shao Hongyuan nodded, then turned around and headed towards Chengdu Fucheng.
When he entered the city gate, Bian Xi suddenly whispered to Shao Hongyuan, "General Shao, the commander-in-chief is in charge of the military. Naturally, we cannot disobey orders.
However, the next battle will definitely be extremely difficult, so we still have to be prepared.
And, if necessary, we'd better help each other out.
After all, we have no advantage when facing the Tubo people now. If we are defeated by the Tubo people one by one, we will be betraying the divine grace..."
Shao Hongyuan thought for a moment, then nodded.
As soon as he arrived in Chengdu Fucheng, Wang Huaizhen gave him a warning. Obviously, the next situation would not be beneficial to him.
In any case, we are all under Zhang Jun's command, so we should help each other at this time.
Otherwise, not to mention defeat, I am afraid that we will also lose our troops and generals.
"We don't need to worry too much, the commander-in-chief is the best among us.
However, each of us has our own troops.
If they join forces, even the commander-in-chief will have to be wary. He cannot ignore the reaction of the tens of thousands of troops under his command.
All we have to do is be careful and not give others a chance.
It seems that Prime Minister Zhang and General Shen are also planning this matter in Lin'an. We only need to wait for the change to come, and there is no need to openly compete with the commander-in-chief."
Shao Hongyuan said in a low voice.
Bian Xi and the other two nodded slightly, and then the group entered the city.
"Shao Hongyuan, the commander-in-chief has led his troops. As the defender of Chengdu City, why don't you take the initiative to greet him? What's the point?
Is it possible that you have never put the commander-in-chief in your eyes?"
A general came slowly towards him, it was Wang Huaizhen's direct descendant Zhou Yu.
Anger rose in Shao Hongyuan's heart, but his face remained calm.
"The general has been waiting at the North City Gate for two hours, but he has never been summoned by the commander-in-chief.
I guess the commander went the wrong way, or maybe someone is blind?"
Zhou Yu came to find trouble, and Shao Hongyuan was naturally not a forbearing person, so he responded with sarcasm.
"you!"
Zhou Yu was furious, but after hearing Wang Huaixuan's instructions, he had to temporarily suppress his anger and gritted his teeth and said, "You will come to the Chinese army's tent as soon as possible. The commander will summon you! If you are delayed, you can take the blame yourself...
…”
Although they can't understand Wang Huai's talent, Shao Hongyuan and others will naturally not let anyone take advantage of him.
Immediately, the group of people headed towards the Chinese army's tent.
The tens of thousands of soldiers brought by Wang Huaihen directly entered the military camp in the city! At this moment, these soldiers were setting up tents, but naturally the Chinese army's tent had already been erected.
"The general will finally meet the commander-in-chief!"
Several people entered the military tent. When Shao Hongyuan and others saw Wang Huaixian doing it, they immediately stepped forward to salute.
"sit down!"
Wang Huaixun waved his hand for several people to sit down, but he had no intention of mentioning anything outside the city.
"General Shao, you have been stationed in Chengdu Fucheng for several months, and the Tubo people are mainly active in the south of Chengdu Fucheng. Please first tell me about the situation of your department and what you know about the situation of the Tubo people."
Wang Huaixian said calmly.
It was naturally impossible for Shao Hongyuan to refuse, "Commander, there are currently 28,000 soldiers and horses under the general's command, most of which are infantry. Previously, Marshal Shen had left us enough food and grass, enough for more than a month...
"
First, he briefly described the situation in the city to Wang Huaichen, and then, Shao Hongyuan paused and continued, "During this period, the general has sent spies several times into the southern states and counties to explore Tubo.
There was movement, but only a few people returned successfully.
Nowadays, the south of the mansion is basically occupied by the Tubo people, who have stationed heavy troops at various passes, presumably to guard against us."
"Commander Shen's previous battles killed many Tubo people. However, even so, the Tubo people still have 140,000 to 50,000 people! In terms of our current military strength..."
"Okay, I understand."
Wang Huaichun interrupted Shao Hongyuan.
"First, General Shao, the food and grass in your army should have been shipped from the previous imperial court."
Wang Huaixian asked calmly.
Shao Hongyuan was startled at first, then nodded.
Almost everyone knows about this matter, and there is no need to hide it!
"General Shao, since these grains and fodder were escorted by the imperial court, they will naturally be under my control.
Moreover, all the food and grass brought by the imperial court are in your army, I am afraid that others will not be convinced!"
Wang Huaixun said calmly, "So, in order to avoid any dissatisfaction among our ministries, I will transport all the food and grass in your hands to the Chinese army. I will treat everyone in each ministry fairly and will never make people dissatisfied."
"
Wang Huaichun's words made Shao Hongyuan widen his eyes, and there was a bit of fierceness in his eyes!
This Wang Huaichen is indeed a sinister means! Food and grass are the most important factor in the stability of an army. If there is no food and grass, first of all, the combat effectiveness of Shao Hongyuan's soldiers will decline rapidly. In addition, he also handed over his understanding to Wang Huaichen.
in hand.
If I have any ideas in the future, even though I have more than 20,000 men under my command, but no food or rice, won't this mean that they will starve to death in vain?
If they really treat things fairly, just like Shen Tang, even if they don't want to in their hearts, they won't violate it even if they think about it.
However, can they expect Wang Huai to be fair?
If Wang Huaizhen really treated each other fairly, he would no longer be Wang Huaizhen.
"Commander, please forgive me!"
Shao Hongyuan was shocked and angry, "What the commander said is certainly true. However, when Commander Shen was here, he had distributed these grains and grass to our subordinates. If the commander is not satisfied, we can ask for your majesty's decree. Naturally, we dare not do anything.
The slightest resistance will be a direct surrender to your command."
