Chapter 27: Ichiro Matsui's Conspiracy (I)
The thought of Duke Griffin's two brothers, Knowlton, couldn't help but have another headache. These two guys still don't understand whether their position is firm or not, for them with more than 100,000 troops in their hands, they have undoubtedly become a cancer of the empire and a threat to the Xuanwu Legion, if they don't mutiny, it's a good thing, then the enemy army trapped in Baoji Pass is cut off from backup, then it will be a matter of time before they fail.
If they mutinied, there would be two scenarios, the first was that they would wait and wait for the two sides to fight, and then come out and pick up a bargain!
There is another situation that worries Norton the most, and that is the fear that they will mutiny and mix with the enemy army to attack the Xuanwu Corps, which will put them in danger.
Hearing Knowlton's serious words, everyone couldn't help but suddenly sober up a lot, if they really accidentally made the mistake that Knowlton said and despised the enemy, then they really couldn't say the consequences, at this moment everything must be careful, otherwise if they are not careful, they will lose their efforts.
"Yes, the General's orders!"
After a while, everyone said solemnly.
"That's good, now we are temporarily under control, the enemy is currently blocked by us in Baoji Pass, and I don't know if the two brothers of Duke Griffin will really help us cut off the food on his back road. But what we have to do now is prepare for the worst, and that is what will happen after the Griffin brothers' mutiny. In that case, if the enemy has no worries, he may still take the opportunity to attack, after all, they are not dead set on us. ”
The thought of Duke Griffin's two brothers, Knowlton, couldn't help but have another headache. These two guys still don't understand whether their position is firm or not, for them with more than 100,000 troops in their hands, they have undoubtedly become a cancer of the empire and a threat to the Xuanwu Legion, if they don't mutiny, it's a good thing, then the enemy army trapped in Baoji Pass is cut off from backup, then it will be a matter of time before they fail. If they mutinied, there would be two situations, the first was that they would wait and wait for the two sides to fight and then come out and pick up a bargain! The other was the thing that worried Norton the most, that is, they were afraid that they would mutiny and mix with the enemy to attack the Xuanwu Corps, and then they would be in danger.
First of all, the Xuanwu Legion is currently facing enemy attacks in front of them, and they are surrounded by two provinces, on the left is the army of Duke Griffint, and on the upper left is the territory of his younger brother Duke Gretus, so they are really dangerous when they are attacked on both sides.
Speaking of which, all the officers present here were not stupid, and naturally guessed what Knowlton was worried about.
"General, why don't we send out a few scouts to their territory, maybe we'll find something. ”
In the midst of the silence of the crowd, one of the officers spoke.
"Well, that's fine, Snowpan, and send a few scouts to see what happens. I'll leave this matter to you!"
After hearing this suggestion, Knowlton smiled and said to an officer beside him, this person was the commander of the infantry, the commander of the Snowpan Division.
"Yes, sir!"
Hearing that he had been assigned a task, the man named Snowpan said coldly without the slightest change in his face and with a ruthless look.
Everyone didn't feel any discomfort about his performance, after all, everyone knows his temper, and he has always been a look of wanting to die, with an expression of rejection from thousands of miles away.
"Now we still have to be ready. Everyone will take turns on duty from today, and in addition, we must send people into Baoji Pass as soon as possible to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, and this time I don't want to make the same mistake as last time. Looking at Snowpan Knowlton continued.
Obviously, this task is going to be handed over to them again.
The intelligence error that occurred last time almost killed Long Aotian and the others in the enemy's barracks, and almost made their own operation fail. Naturally, Knowlton didn't want that to happen again this time.
Hearing Knowlton's words and seeing the way he looked at him, Snowpan's face finally changed a little. That's right, he was also in charge of the information last time, but there was such a big problem that almost led to serious consequences, and when he heard this sentence again, his uneven expression also changed a little, and he felt unnatural for a while.
"Okay, that's all for these things first, and the specific plan will be formulated after the intelligence comes back in two days! In this case, everyone will be disbanded, there are still many things to be done, go back to your own business!" said Knowton after thinking about it. The reason why he wants to tell everyone that he is going to write a letter is actually Knowlton's intention, and he hopes to use this to let everyone know that they need to work harder.
Because such letters are very common on the battlefield, and the content is very simple. Such a letter is nothing more than a report on the situation of some battles, but also on some problems in this battle and some people who have made great contributions, as long as they are written into it, they know that those people will be promoted. Naturally, Long Aotian must have been written into it this time. Knowlton's intention is also very clear, that is--- as long as you make meritorious contributions, then you will be rewarded and promoted!
When they had gone, Knowlton ordered the soldiers to bring out pens and paper, and he prepared a letter to report on the recent battle.
Looking at the white paper, Knowlton took up the pen to introduce the recent battles and then prepared to open a list of some meritorious personnel, these lists Knowlton thought carefully for a moment and then began to write.
?????“ Someone!"
When he had finished writing the letters, Knowlton carefully sealed them and shouted out the door.
A moment later a soldier walked in.
"You have to send me this letter to the imperial capital, and remember to deliver it as soon as possible. ”
Looking at the person who came, Norton explained seriously. Because it also wrote about the current situation they were facing, it had to be sent to the imperial capital as soon as possible.
After receiving the letter, the soldier, as a veteran, naturally knew the importance of the letter, nodded heavily, and then quickly turned around and left the tent and walked outside.
After the soldier was gone, Knowlton picked up his pen again, wrote another letter, sealed it, and sent it to the headquarters of the Xuanwu Legion.
Looking at the departing soldiers, Knowlton couldn't help but sigh, the current situation has been stabilized to a certain extent, and it is much better than a few days ago. Returning to his own actions, Knowlton slowly entered into contemplation, and now as the commander of this battle, he must shoulder the burden of what to do next.
????“ Matsui Ichiro, I need you to explain to me, why this battle is like this, our Maqilan Kingdom handed over the command of the war to you this time, and at the same time, the lives of 150,000 soldiers were handed over to you, look at it, look at what you have achieved now!"
At this moment, in a lobby in a mansion in Baoji Pass, there were several officers in armor.
At this time, one of them shouted at the other. The person he drank was none other than Ichiro Matsui, who had just been beaten back by the Xuanwu Legion led by Knowlton. I saw that he looked embarrassed at the moment, his face was full of anger, and his hands were even more clenched into his fists, looking at the place where the Xuanwu Legion was stationed in the distance.
"Yong Moo-hyun, don't yell at me in front of me!
Matsui Ichiro, who was already very unhappy after a big defeat, was suddenly angry at this time, and immediately scolded back loudly at the officer opposite.
was drunk like this by Ichiro Matsui, which made your arrogance suddenly lower!
He knew Matsui Ichiro's reputation, and he knew his behavior and character, so at this time, when he saw Matsui Ichiro going crazy, he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart, worried that he would be unfavorable to himself.
"You, you, Matsui Ichiro, am I wrong?" But turning around and looking at the officers of the Machilan Kingdom who were standing behind him at the moment, Long Moo-hyun didn't want to lose face, so he could only reluctantly pluck up his courage and continue.
Seeing that Long Moo-hyun still dared to speak to himself like this, Matsui Ichiro's eyes couldn't help but squint slightly, and a wisp of killing intent flashed that was difficult to find: "I'll tell you, Long Moo-hyun, don't stand still without backache, you go to the front line to fight by yourself to see if you can be better than me!" "Matsui Ichiro, don't make excuses for yourself if you fail, if you say no, you can hand over the command of this time to our Maqilan Kingdom, we will definitely be better than you!"
Seeing that his general, Long Moo-hyun, was stunned by the other party, the commander of the Marchilan Kingdom standing behind him said dissatisfiedly. I saw that this man was six feet tall, with a rough face, and a beard all around his mouth. As soon as you look at him, you will think about him on the side of the fierce man!
"Who are you, I don't seem to be talking to you!"
Seeing that there were still people fighting against him at this time and saying that he was not, Matsui Ichiro's anger was once again instigated even more violently. Looking at the person opposite, he was almost eager to kill him, if it weren't for the fact that the senior generals of the two countries were here now, and he had indeed suffered a defeat, Matsui Ichiro believed that he would definitely cut him in two with one sword.
"I am the deputy commander of the Marchilan Kingdom's army this time. Seeing that Matsui Ichiro didn't even know who he was, this person said depressedly.
"Hehe, deputy commander of the Marchilan Kingdom, are you very strong? Okay, I'll hand over the command to you for the next period of time, I want to see what kind of achievements you can make. ”
Maybe he was very angry, but at this moment, Matsui Ichiro sneered.
"General, you ???"
The people behind Ichiro Matsui couldn't help but shout out when they heard what he said.
Before everyone could speak, Matsui Ichiro raised his right hand and motioned to the people behind him so that they didn't have to ask so much.
