Chapter 1143: Everything is inclusive
The dice have been rolled and the determination has been made.
Huan Wen looked at the soldiers and soldiers who followed him and said, "You came with me from Hezhou, but I only think of the soldiers in the world. I really feel guilty."
"Although the transport of troops is free of food and clothing, it is extremely hard and exhausted, and there is no opportunity to be rewarded. It is really not a good job."
"You have already started a family after many times. When your descendants grow up, they must be soldiers, farm, fish, practice and sell. The future of their descendants seems to be full of sight."
"I have a good opportunity to change my fate against the will of heaven. Would you like to bet? To be honest, my gambling luck is not good and I rarely throw Lu Cai. Now all my five sons are black, some say God's will."
Speaking of this, he quietly looked at his military academies.
"Captain, we follow you from Longxi. We are running for wealth and honor, and we are indeed not a soldier. It's just a life, and it's totally worth it to take a fight." As soon as Huan Wen finished speaking, someone immediately said.
"If I were in Longxi, I would have been hungry and fighting with the Qifu Xianbei people. There is less forage in winter and the competition is very strong. If I die on a river beach, I will die in vain and I don't even have a chance to bet on a future." After the first person finished speaking, someone laughed and said, "The captain has Lu Cai, what else can I say? Just bet."
"Haha, lieutenant. I also threw my life on a gambling case. I want to see what I am throwing into a thief. Is it a miscellaneous item?"
"The old skills of killing have not yet been lost, what are you afraid of? I heard that Li Te and his six counties defeated the Shu people and founded the country. Are we, the children of Yilongxi, still afraid of the Shu people?"
"Captain, I'll just give me a pension if I die. My son is still young and can't plow the fields and catch fish."
Everyone expressed their opinions one by one, which made Huan Wen very pleased.
Most of these people were the county soldiers he brought under Wen Qiao's tent. They went into battle many times. The most proud battle was to kill Dou Tao, the prefect of Jincheng in the east formation of Hehui City.
The rest were either recruited by Longxi soldiers or captured prisoners when they attacked Liangzhou. Hu and Han were mixed and he had been led by him for several years.
"The court will have its own pension when I die on the battlefield. Don't worry, this is my order. You are just ordered. Even if the court loses its battle, I will be punished. I will have nothing to do with you. The pension is indispensable." Huan Wen said: "I will write a letter to Xiangyang in a while, and Princess Jingfu will give another reward in addition to the court's pension."
After saying that, he stood up and looked at everyone, saying, "I have decided to take this bet."
"Gambling!"
"As for your order!"
"Captain, I'll listen to you."
"I have been waiting for a long time to make achievements."
The military academies said angrily.
Everyone expressed their attitude. After listening to Huan Wen, they only subconsciously ignored the Prince of Julu County Shao Shen. Theoretically, should we obtain Shao Shen’s permission for this level of military operations? Otherwise, how to recruit troops?
Of course, Huan Wen is still politically sensitive and knows that he cannot bypass Shangguan.
However, it is not necessary to find Shao Shen. He ran too fast. It is reported that he had chased the front army and was probably passing Zhixian and heading towards Yangguan.
If you can’t find Shao Shen, it’s the same for He Lun. He is the governor of the rear army, and he is still between Nanpu and Qunin.
He Lun has the right to act cheaply and make independent military decisions. He can still get permission to find him, and even get some reinforcements.
Thinking of this, he immediately left the cabin and said, "You can prepare the equipment and troops first and make it clear to the soldiers. I'll go and meet the military advisor."
After saying that, he stepped on the springboard and then took two horses and galloped away with several people.
*******
The wind whistled past his ears, and Huan Wen and several followers galloped on the narrow post road.
On one side of the post road is a mountain, with yellow shrubs at the foot of the mountain, as well as orchards, farmlands and salt wells that you occasionally see.
On the other side is the muddy beach.
There were many people on the beach, either squatting or standing, repairing damaged vehicles or caring for exhausted livestock.
Some sick or injured servants also set up tents on the beach and were shaking and cooking rice in the cold wind.
Apart from a distance, more than ten new tombs were established, which were the people who died of illness or exhaustion.
It is said to be a grave, but it is just a small earth bunker, with no tombstones and no one worships. As soon as the person who buried him left, no one knew who had ever "lived" here.
Overturned vehicles are everywhere.
The yellow corn fell on the roadside, and the birds hovered in the air. After the pack of people left, they quickly flew down and pecked at the rice grains remaining in the grass and sand.
After riding for a while, Huan Wen and others had to get off the horse and walk.
The road was too congested, with grain trucks, baggage trucks, mules and horse teams, and the army that seemed to never be over.
Huan Wen deeply doubted that when Chengdu was finally captured, the troops walking at the back might not have time to fight with the enemy.
The passing soldiers only glanced at Huan Wen and others at will, and then continued to rush forward.
At this time, there is only one type of person who goes against them: the messenger.
But the messenger usually has only two or three, sometimes even alone, Huan Wen and his party have seven or eight, but there are too many.
But who cares? The road is difficult to walk, people are uncomfortable, and the Bashan Mountains in winter are even cold and can't stand it even if they can't stand it.
Every time they camped, they sat around the firewood pile and brazier as much as possible. After all, the winter fog was together, and the coldness was drilling straight into the bones, which was even more uncomfortable than the heavy snowy days in the north. The brazier had to drive away the wetness.
"Most of the elite soldiers have left..." Huan Wen couldn't help but say, looking at the big banner of "Puyangshan Town General Bu" that he had just passed by. "Bu" should be the Han surname changed by the "Xubu family". Puyangshan Town is also a military town rebuilt by the surrendered Huns in Hebei. It has existed for many years, and this time around 2,000 people were dispatched.
Most of the government soldiers and imperial guards were in the front, and most of the people who stayed behind were local troops and civilians. The former guarded the troops, while the latter rushed forward and rushed forward slowly.
If the river surface is safe, sometimes ships will be used to transport resources. At this time, some manpower can be liberated and they can move forward and catch up with the main elite.
It seems that it is very difficult to organize a large-scale logistics transfer. The complexity in the middle is almost exhausting.
Not everyone can manage it.
Or even if you can manage it, it is different from managing it well, and the effect is very different.
These middle and lower-level officials who organize logistics transportation are mostly seconded from the manors of aristocratic families, or they originally brought their own manors to transfer their resources.
These people have established rich transfer experience in the past thirty years of war, and after a little bit of adjustment, they can operate efficiently. In fact, this is also a talent, and it is not necessarily a talent in peaceful times.
After sighing, the road ahead became a little wider, and Huan Wen ordered to get on the horse and continue to run.
In the evening of that day, He Lun's flag finally appeared on the horizon to the east.
"Huan Wen, the captain of the Xiangyang branch, asked to see the military advisor, and there was an emergency military report." Seeing that he came to intercept their cavalry, Huan Wen dismounted immediately and shouted.
*******
He Lun decided to meet Huan Wen without any hesitation, and the location was in an orange orchard.
Huan Wen did not say anything nonsense, reported the news he received on the spot and expressed his judgment: "The king's army is nearly 60,000, and he can divide thousands of people to travel to Xuanhan and Dangqu. Banhuan barbarians came out in full swing, with empty behind, only the elderly, weak, women and children, so it is not difficult to get it. Once he gets it, Jiangzhou and Yangguan are shaking, he will have no morale and no desire to fight. Shao urges the army to fight hard, and will definitely defeat the enemy and capture Ba County."
"After three bas, the enemy's losses are half. The royal army can surrender its troops to the vanguard, go straight to Chengdu, and fight with the thieves at the city. As long as you move quickly, you don't give Li Xiong a chance to clean up people's hearts, you will have a great chance to capture Chengdu."
"Besides, after attacking the hinterland of Shu, if local tribes may turn to the king's army, they can also collect food and grass and recruit Chengdu defenders, and their chances of victory will be higher."
"The emperor mobilized 300,000 people to destroy it, and even the Murong Xianbei tolerated it. He made such a great effort and would like to kill the thief and be quick. The military advisor was the emperor's first follower. If this contribution is made, it will be of infinite benefit to future generations."
When Huan Wen said that, He Lun nodded repeatedly, but gave no comments.
When Huan Wen stopped, he only looked at the other party with a smile and said, "Yuanzi is eager to make contributions."
Huan Wen was suffocated. That's right, but what do you mean by saying that?
"Has Wuqiu Zongkuang replied?" He Lun asked.
"I have sent someone to find the Lord of the Mansion." Huan Wen replied.
He Lun was silent for a moment and asked again, "I heard that on the first day of October, Wuqiu Shuyuan accompanied the emperor out of the city. She was already pregnant with Liujia at that time?"
"Yes." Huan Wen said, "This matter is true."
He Lun muttered and lowered his head to ponder.
Huan Wen waited anxiously.
These founding nobles thought too much about speaking and doing things, and they had to consider all aspects and calculate various interests, alas!
A moment later, He Lun summoned someone.
"Military advisor." This is a young man who saluted when he comes in.
"This is for my son. Just call him "Wurang". He used to be an official in Luoyang, and now he is a soldier outside the Jiangling Shogunate." He Lun introduced.
Huan Wen then greeted He Fen.
"Wulang." He Lun looked at his son and said, "You will take your three hundred personal soldiers to the west and stop the right cavalry guard."
"Yes." He Fen responded neatly.
The right cavalry guard has two thousand four hundred combat soldiers, plus the team, which is 4,800 people, and the infantry and cavalry are both strong.
After ordering his son, He Lun called the military advisor to sacrificial wine (formerly military advisors sacrificial wine), and asked him to scramble forward, find the soldiers in Feilongshan Town, and ask them to gather in Nanpu County.
Huan Wen became more and more excited as he listened, but he was also a little disappointed.
He only had 1,500 soldiers on hand, and he couldn't take up the big deal. This credit was destined to be taken by He Lun, even the Right Cavalry Guard, Feilongshan Town General or someone else, and he could only get a share of the pie.
But then I thought about it, if he hadn't been the son-in-law of Princess Jingfu, the emperor's favorite, would he be qualified to have a meal?
He Lun is a little bit unscrupulous and directly excludes you, so what can he do?
"If Wuqiu Zongkuang can confirm it, he will send troops to attack Dangqu." He Lun looked at Huan Wen again and said, "In this battle, Duan Liang, the General of the Right Cavalry Guard, is the governor, and Wulang, you and Chen Chite are the deputy. It is best to send someone to join the house with Wuqiu Mansion. If you don't have them, you can't do it."
Good guy! He Lun's son and his personal soldiers, the right cavalry guards of the palace, the Feilongshan Town Army, the Badong County Army, and the Xiangyang Du Branch transported troops. There were tens of thousands of troops, and they were taken care of in all aspects.
Is He Lun building relationships or fighting?
However, Huan Wen also learned a lot.
Perhaps, sometimes favors are saved like this. He could even imagine that once the attack was successful and He Lun won the victory, there was still a mystery.
Huan Wen rushed back to Nanpu the next morning.
On the fifteenth, the Feilongshan Town Army arrived on its way.
On the afternoon of the 16th, Badong Prefect Viagra finally returned.
In the afternoon of the same day, the chief of the lord of Quren County, Xu, brought two thousand Ding Zhuang, and Wuqiu Ao ordered his son Wuqiu Yan to join with him with a thousand county soldiers.
The General of the Right Cavalry Guard, who had been impatient, brought 4,800 soldiers from the palace (including troops), 3,000 soldiers from Feilongshan Town, 300 soldiers from He Lun, 1,200 soldiers from Xiangyang, 2,000 soldiers from Xu's family, 1,000 soldiers from Badong County, and a total of more than 12,000 auxiliary soldiers from Nanpu. He left Nanpu and drove a large number of mules and horses into the mountains.
