In order to minimize losses, the four generals reassigned their respective tasks.

They still went to Taicheng by Ma Yu, and the martial army escorted the seven princesses to the border city, but the seven princesses were behind, and they had to wait until they occupied the city before entering the city.

They don't know whether Dong Ruyi's arrangement is intentional or unintentional. Either way, it's the best arrangement.

As for Zheng and Wei, they decided that General Zheng would stay behind and escort grain, grass, and supplies; General Wei is responsible for dealing with the replaced city defense army, and you must know that the replaced city defense army also has 14,500 people.

As soon as the third watch passed, everyone went their separate ways.

The heaviest responsibility among the five is Deputy Commander Hu, and there is only one thing he has to do, that is, to find Dong Ruyi and the others, ask the reason, and persuade them not to act rashly.

***

The fifth watch arrived, and Wan Taishou of the border city rushed to the city lord's mansion.

Wan Taishou is the second son of the Marquis of Zhenbian and the second uncle of General Lei Yuan.

He walked anxiously back and forth in the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion: "Is Lei Yuan here?" ”

The soldier at the door kept looking out, and from time to time he would reply, "I haven't seen anyone yet." ”

The soldier suddenly shouted, "Coming, coming." ”

Wan Taishou hurriedly walked to Wen, "You are here, talk in the house." ”

General Si Ning said: "Second uncle, why are you so anxious? He thought it was the Seventh Princess's carriage that had arrived, but it didn't look like a princess.

Wan Taishou said anxiously: "What I can't get is the Seventh Princess." "Anyway, the seventh princess is also married to Northern Xinjiang.

He took out a letter from his bosom, "General Wu with King Zhou is here, saying that he is ordered to go to Guanwai through the border city. ”

General Si Ning was confused, and he was puzzled: "What is he doing outside the gate?" ”

Wan Taishou said: "How do I know this, not only him, but also the 10,000 soldiers he brought." Now that the team is under the city, do you say we should borrow it or not? ”

General Si Ning said: "This is too nonsense, what are they doing with 10,000 people going to Guanwai?" This is a war, not a child's house. ”

Wan Taishou sighed heavily, "That's what I'm saying, just those of them, if they accidentally enter the mountain, let's not say whether they know the road or not, even if they meet the people who know the way, but do they understand the Guanwai dialect?" ”

The two looked at each other speechlessly, even if they were fighting for military merits, there was no such scramble. Besides, how much credit can be given to the transfer of the people?

After being silent for a long time, Wan Taishou said: "General Wu is now outside the city, and it is not a way to drag it like this, why don't we see each other first?" ”

General Si Ning said: "Now it can only be like this. At the moment, he only hoped that this martial general was a man who could speak reasonably.

Wan Taishou asked people to open the city gate, and politely let General Wu come in.

When the three of them met, General Wu took the lead in speaking: "I have admired the two names for a long time, and this time I really caused trouble for the two of them." It's just that this military order is like a mountain, and Wu can't help it! ”

General Wu's attitude made both General Si Ning breathe a sigh of relief, it would be good to be a good talker.

They glanced at each other, and Wan Taishou said: "General Wu is polite, I heard that General Wu also leads troops all the year round, and this time His Majesty asked him to escort His Royal Highness King Zhou, which shows that his ability is extraordinary." ”

The three of them were polite, and Wan Taishou said: "Now there is a lot of chaos outside the pass, and if you don't get it, you either enter the mountains and forests by mistake, or you meet a small group of Hu people." Besides, are there any people in the army who can understand Hu Ren's words? ”

General Wu shook his head and said no.

Wan Taishou said: "Then there are anyone who can listen to the words of the Guanwai?" ”

General Wu looked embarrassed, "No." He sighed heavily, "That's not what you said, we don't like the meaning of His Royal Highness King Touzhou." But what if you don't agree, this is a military order. ”

He lowered his voice, "Who is the king of Zhou?" He is the commander of the army that went north this time, not to mention me, even His Majesty's close minister Hu Jianjun is not under her. Now we can only obey orders, otherwise who can stand a disobedience to military orders? ”

Wan Taishou said: "What does General Wu mean by this? The man in front of him obviously had something to say, and he didn't intend to hide it.

General Wu whispered: "It's not just me who has 10,000 people who have gone to Guanwai this time, and there are 10,000 people in Taicheng who want to borrow it." ”

General Si Ning exclaimed: "20,000 people? Isn't that adding to the chaos? ”

General Wu was not embarrassed, but smiled helplessly. By the way, "Two dolls under the age of twenty, don't expect it to make sense......"

Wan Taishou was worried, he looked at General Si Ning, and after the two signaled, Wan Taishou said: "I won't tell you that there are still 200,000 people outside the pass who have not entered the pass, and the 200,000 army of the Hu people has begun to move south. ”

General Wu exclaimed: "What, how can there be 200,000 people? After he finished speaking, he realized that the population was underreported and the number of troops was overreported, which was very normal at the border gates. If there are fewer people, the less taxes will naturally be paid; And when there are more soldiers, the more food and salary the court will give.

The hall was instantly quiet, and now that someone from the court is coming, this matter will not be hidden sooner or later. What's more, the emperor knew about it, the emperor is not a fool, and the emperor is just turning a blind eye to the situation in northern Xinjiang.

General Wu said: "The two of you don't have to worry too much, although King Zhou's thoughts are puzzling, fortunately, he is a person who can listen." You see, we haven't had any major incidents along the way. ”

Wan Tai said in his heart: "What big things can happen in the territory of Da Zhou?" If you can't even protect 500,000 loads of grain, then you won't use it in northern Xinjiang. But he couldn't say it clearly.

Seeing that the two were silent, General Wu continued: "Hu Jianjun is a good one, and now we can only wait for him to find King Zhou and persuade him." ”

General Si Ning frowned: "King Zhou is not with the army?" ”

Speaking of this, General Wu's mouth was full of bitterness, and he sighed, "Isn't it, His Royal Highness King Zhou and Prince Qing have disappeared from Beijing within a few days." With their footsteps, people are now either in the border city or in the city of Taicheng. ”

Wan Taishou said: "King Zhou has enough people around him, and now there is no shortage of Hu people and spies in the city, if something happens, we won't be able to explain it!" ”

General Wu sighed again: "Just a dozen accompanying guards." ”

Wan Taishou didn't know what to say, saying that the ignorant were fearless, and the newborn calves were not afraid of tigers at that time? In any case, it was their fault.

"Dare to mess around with a dozen people, this is no longer nonsense, but taking life as a child's play." General Sining couldn't help it.

The hall was silent again.

General Si Ning looked at Wan Taishou, and he saw a trace of unusualness in Wan Taishou's eyes. His second uncle is not as weak and easy to bully as he seems, otherwise he would not be the one guarding the border city. ()
