Only after actually taking charge of the Liangshan army did we know how powerful this army was, which was absolutely beyond imagination.
Twenty thousand soldiers who have been trained for a long time and experienced wars are quite good.
What surprised him even more was that all the generals of the Liangshan army, not to mention their superb martial arts skills, were all orthodox military generals.
The broad sword Guan Sheng, the thunderbolt fire Qin Ming, the double whip Hu Yanzhuo, the green-faced beast Yang Zhi...
Each one of them is a well-known master in the world, and they are also well-known in the Forbidden Army system. Just by looking at them, you can tell that they are all rare generals in the army.
Apart from other things, Wang Zhen knew he was invincible in terms of momentum!
Not to mention, before he took office, he knew about the existence of those inhuman beings in the army and had already left voluntarily, which made him feel relieved and regretful.
The armor on the bodies of the 20,000 soldiers was bright, and the sharp weapons in their hands shone with cold light. They were all in high spirits and were not affected by the defeat of the army.
Being able to take charge of such a powerful army made him both excited and nervous...
Wang Chen knew in his heart that without the strong support of Marshal Tong, he would not be able to take over the command of the Liangshan army.
In terms of qualifications and ability, there are many generals in the Western Army who are better than him.
If he hadn't been a general of General Tong's bodyguard, such a good thing wouldn't have happened to him, at least he wouldn't have been able to take advantage of it.
Of course, since Tong Dashuai has given him such a great benefit, he will naturally cooperate well according to Tong Dashuai's request.
At least in the second battle of the Liao Dynasty, which was personally led by Tong Dashuai, he performed well and surprised Tong Dashuai.
At this time, Wang Zhen was very high-spirited and confident that he could perform well on the battlefield of Liao. The Liangshan army was indeed very powerful.
At least, comparable to the elite Western Army...
It's a pity that before he, as a new official, could take office, the differences between the Liangshan army gave Wang Zhen a severe blow.
On this day, Wang Zhen, who was discussing matters with several generals of the Liangshan Army, suddenly received a shocking news: his younger brother, who was preparing to take over the logistics authority, was severely beaten by the general in charge of logistics of the Liangshan Army!
This is not bad!
Wang Zhen was so angry that his mouth was filled with smoke, and even his confidants spoke out to make him angry. The anger in his heart was not small.
As we all know, the most important thing in the military is personnel rights and financial rights.
There is no need to say more about personnel power. Financial power is about logistics and equipment. As the commander-in-chief of the Liangshan army, Wang Zhen naturally has to firmly control the logistics and equipment.
Of course, according to the bad habits in the military, he and his close associates can also make a good fortune from it. This is considered an open secret.
I never expected that the general who was in charge of the logistics of the Liangshan army would dare not give him face, and would even drive out his confidant who was sent to take over the logistics troops and beat him severely.
Isn't this a slap in his face...
"You guys need to give Wang an explanation, otherwise you won't blame Wang for being rude!"
Wang Zhen was not polite, and took the opportunity to invite several major generals of the Liangshan army. When he explained the situation, he said angrily with displeasure on his face: "Such an act is too bad. Is it possible that Wang's commanding position is fake?"
I originally thought that after he expressed his stance like this, several generals of Liangshan Army would take the initiative to give in even if they felt unhappy.
Since these few people did not leave the military camp without authorization like many leaders with reckless habits before Wang Zhen took office, they obviously would not easily fall out with the general who represented the imperial court.
Wang Zhen's identity is even more special. Behind him is a big shot in the court like Tong Guan. If you offend him, will you still want to get involved in the officialdom in the future?
Unexpectedly, what I thought was a sure thing turned out to be unexpected...
"It's not that I don't give the commander face, it's that the back camp is a place that I can't control!"
"That's right. The rear camp is directly under the management of Liangshan Village. The logistics materials there are supplied by Liangshan Village and are not allocated by the imperial court!"
"The logistics camp of the Liangshan Army is set up separately. It is not mixed with the rear camp. Please give me your permission, Commander-in-Chief!"
"..."
Beginning with Dadao Guan Sheng, the other core generals of the Liangshan army spoke one after another and explained the reasons to Wang Zhen who was full of anger.
Wang Zhen was stunned for a moment, feeling extremely ridiculous...
"Everyone, do you think Wang is a fool?"
"Which army will assign another person to manage the logistics camp?"
"Besides, since you belong to the Liangshan Army, you must accept management honestly!"
Wang Zhen was so angry that he banged the table in front of him and shouted angrily with an ugly face. He even felt that all the core generals of the Liangshan army had joined forces to make him embarrassed.
"If you don't believe it, you can go to the back camp and have a look in person. The supplies there are quite special!"
Guan Sheng and others were not afraid. After Wang Zhen lost his temper, he spoke slowly.
When Wang Zhen heard this, he felt even more angry. However, he had no choice but to not give face to Guan Sheng and other generals, so he could only angrily express that he would go to the rear camp to inspect it immediately. He wanted to see what kind of "special" place there was.
Law.
I originally thought that Guan Sheng and other generals would find excuses to intercede, but unexpectedly they did not do so at all. Instead, they just followed Wang Zhen's words and settled the matter.
Now, it was Wang Zhen's turn to be overwhelmed and at a loss...
But when he, accompanied by Guan Sheng and others, actually inspected the back camp, which was ten miles away from the main camp, Wang Zhou was completely confused. At the same time, he also understood what Guan Sheng and others were saying.
What means.
The rear camp of the Liangshan army is indeed very special...
The bulk of the supplies stored in the back camp are canned fish, pork and mutton that are very popular on the market, and there are even various types of candies that can be called luxuries!
These are all really good things!
At the same time, this is not the normal food and grass supplies allocated by the court. The court will not be so generous. You must know that canned goods and candies are very popular goods.
Obviously, the canned goods and candies stored in the rear camp were all provided by the so-called Liangshan Village and had nothing to do with the imperial court.
In such a situation, Wang Zhen didn't know what to say.
You can't argue with the ordnance supplies stored by the rear camp. If the rear camp left in anger with cans, candies and other supplies, Wang Zhen could only stare helplessly.
Because the rear camp was not an official army, but was acting as a follower of the army and civilians, Wang Zhen did not dare to overdo it.
Not to mention Guan Sheng and other core generals of the Liangshan Army, the 20,000 Liangshan Army officers and soldiers are watching. If he goes too far, who knows whether there will be bad consequences?
After inspecting the rear camp, which was clearly separated from the main force of Liangshan, Wang Zhen discovered something unusual about Liangshan's army.
Damn it, the soldiers of Liangshan Army are eating three meals a day at this time, and they can get a little bit of oil every day. If they are lucky, they can even eat a piece of pork and mutton!
In addition, the supply of various kinds of pickled chicken, duck and goose eggs was also sufficient, which surprised Wang Zhen.
After eating so richly, it would be damned if his fighting ability is not good enough.
Knowing this, Wang Zhen, the newly appointed general manager of Liangshan Army, was dumbfounded and felt quite strange at the same time.
When he found out that the back camp also supplied various talismans, he was really dumbfounded.
That's right...
Originally, he wanted to take the opportunity to get angry and reprimand the core generals of the Liangshan army.
only……
Wang Zhen, who had followed Tong Guan and had also experienced the battle against Fangla, quickly realized what was going on with the various talismans supplied by the Liangshan rear camp.
"There are rejuvenation talisman, water ball talisman, water ball talisman, and strong wind talisman..."
Ruan Xiaoqi, the rotation commander of the rear battalion, stood in the center of the Liangshan army's general tent, with a defiant face and reported slowly.
Just because of this guy's unruly spirit, Wang Zhen knew that things in the back camp were not going to be easy.
"How are these materials supplied?"
Wang Zhen is not sure of completely controlling the rear camp now, and plans to get the benefits first.
"The food is delivered directly to the large dining hall, under the supervision of the rear camp soldiers, so that the brothers can enjoy it!"
"As for the talismans, the supply situation is also different depending on the purpose."
"For example, the Talisman of Rejuvenation. During battle, each commander will have three to five of them. Normally, the rear camp will be in charge of it himself!"
"As for the Five Elements Talisman, it is assigned to the general in command during battles, and is basically reserved by the rear camp during normal times!"
"There is another set of rules for the distribution of ordnance supplies!"
As Ruan Xiaoqi's unruly voice slowly sounded, Wang Xun's face slowly became serious.
He found that the management of the Liangshan army's rear camp was really strict.
Mainly, based on what he investigated, various rules and regulations and disciplines were implemented very strictly, which is amazing.
The grain and grass supplies allocated by the imperial court were actually under the management of the rear camp, but they were nothing compared to the astonishingly valuable cans, candies, and other items.
The more he learned about the situation in the rear camp of Liangshan, the more awe-inspiring Wang Zhen felt. He realized that he might know the reason for the strong combat power of Liangshan's army.
Unfortunately, other officers and soldiers cannot copy this reason, or the court will not allow other officers and soldiers to copy it.
At this time, he also understood that if he wanted to control the logistics of the Liangshan army, he could not say that there was no loophole, but it was simply a fantasy to control the rear camp.
According to Shuangbian Hu Yanzhuo's private statement, the rear camp is directly under the management of Liangshan Main Village. Once the situation is found to be bad, the supply will be immediately cut off, and the rear camp may even be canceled directly.
When the time comes, it will really be a matter of stealing the chicken but losing the rice. If not, it may even cause turmoil in the military, and the gain will definitely outweigh the loss.
There is no way, if there is a problem with the supply of the rear camp, the soldiers of the Liangshan army who are used to being exposed to meat every day will have to make a fuss.
At this critical moment, once the morale of the army is unstable and the combat effectiveness declines, it is likely to affect Tong Guan's major events.
Once Tong Guan is affected, a confidant like Wang Zhen will not be able to reap the rewards.
The more he got to know the Liangshan Army, the more Wang Xun found out that it was more and more difficult to take advantage of the loopholes. There was no such thing as free pay, and there were not many bad habits like other officers and soldiers.
But there is one advantage, that is, the morale is high and the combat effectiveness is quite strong!
