Yuan Chao also frowned slightly when he listened to Chen Wanshan's words.

Judging from his performance just now, his eldest brother Sun has indeed reached a somewhat eye-catching level, causing many people to seriously dislike him.

"Brother Chen, my eldest brother Sun, everything is good, but he is too blunt in dealing with people, and he often hurts the feelings of others, and please don't blame Brother Chen, I am here to ask Brother Chen for his grandson." Yuan Chao was a peacemaker in the middle.

"Okay, okay, Yuan Dynasty, what about us, it's not the first day we saw his grandson, we are quite clear about his personality, you don't have to go through it on behalf of others, I just have a hope, I hope you don't be the same as your big brother Sun, then we will be satisfied." Chen Wanshan also said it more bluntly, and he did not shy away from saying it about Sun Zushou's dissatisfaction.

"Yuan Chao understood." After speaking, Yuan Chao also showed his attitude.

His eldest brother, Yuan Chao will definitely defend it, but Yuan Chao will not interfere with the interests of others, and he is willing to seriously maintain his face.

Yuan Chao's attitude, Chen Wanshan also heard it, this bottom line is still acceptable to Chen Wanshan, as long as there is no one in the way, he Chen Wanshan has nothing to object.

So after Sun Zushou left, everyone then had a feast, without Sun Zushou they were more comfortable and happy, until late at night, everyone supported each other and dispersed.

A few days later, Yuan Chao sent Zhou Gonggong away.

Zhou Huaji also ate and drank well all the way, toured the mountains and rivers, and received a heavy heart from Yuan Chao before leaving, and the whole person was worth the trip.

After sending Zhou Huaji away, Yuan Chao also began to walk up and down in the yamen of the commander to understand the situation.

Yuan Chao knew clearly in his heart that now he still had to focus on his Chen Zhuang, and he couldn't always stay in the Yamen of the Commander of the Metropolitan Command.

And more importantly, to be able to seek more advantages for their Chen Zhuang.

At present, the matter that bothers Yuan Dynasty and Chen Zhuang the most is the issue of army expansion.

Yuan Chao was originally a commander of Chen Zhouwei, with six or seven thousand men under his command, strictly speaking, it was already beyond its own army establishment, and if there were more, it would be easy to be attacked by others. Casually accusing yourself of wanting to rebel, that's really unbearable.

Now Yuan Chao has become the commander of the capital, and concurrently serves as the commander of Chen Zhouwei.

The first problem is to solve the problem of the number of troops under his command.

Who can help with this problem? Naturally, there is only his own top boss, Chen Wanshan.

On this day, Yuan Chao packed up some of Chenzhou's specialties and headed towards Chen Wanshan's private mansion.

"Ouch, it's so late, why is the commander here?" In the gatehouse, the sentry leader who was sitting upright saw Yuan Chao coming, and hurriedly came out and greeted him in a low voice.

"Today I have something to discuss with the Commander-in-Chief. Go and tell the Commander Commander about it. Yuan Chao stood aside after speaking. Waiting for this little school to go and report to Chen Wanshan.

After the little colonel heard what Yuan Chao said, he also hurriedly turned around and walked towards the house. went to Chen Wanshan to report the situation of Yuan Chaolai.

"Yuan Dynasty? Why did Yuan Chao come so late, there must be something to ask me for. ”

"You let him in, I'll see what Yuan Chao wants to do." Chen Wanshan was originally counting some recent accounts in the study, and after hearing the news of Yuan Chao's visit, he folded the accounts, sorted out his clothes, walked out, and walked to the front hall.

After a while, Yuan Chao walked to the front hall under the leadership of the sentry.

"Yuan Dynasty pays a visit to Lord Chen Du's commander." Yuan Chao respectfully said greetings to Chen Wanshan.

Chen Wanshan also hurriedly waved his hand. "It's all my own brothers, so there's no need to be polite."

Yuan Chao got up and sat down on the chair at the bottom of the chair with a modest side.

"Yuan Chao, there must be something wrong with coming to see me so late. Let's hear it. Chen Wanshan didn't want to be polite to Yuan Chaoduo, and just talked straight to the point.

Yuan Chao rubbed his hands. "Lord Chen, I really can't hide anything from you, my subordinates do have some things I want to talk to about Lord Chen. Please also ask Lord Chen for more advice. ”

"That's right. As you know, I am now the commander of Chen Zhouwei, which means that Chen Zhouwei is still under my jurisdiction, but now Chen Zhouwei has some problems. Please also ask Lord Chen to help solve it. Yuan Chao said loudly.

"What can be wrong with Chen Zhouwei? Hehe, who doesn't know that Chen Zhouwei is us. Henan is the most capable army, if there is really any problem, hurry up. You must know that there are still many places in Henan to defend and count on Chen Zhouwei outside the window to support. Chen Wanshan heard that Chen Zhouwei had some problems, and he immediately wanted to understand the situation, after all, he himself commanded the envoy Yamen, the officials up and down, whether they could bear it, whether they had combat effectiveness, he Chen Wanshan knew best in his heart, and now the defense of the entire Henan mainly depends on the support of Chen Zhouwei, an elite army.

If there are some moths in this army, then his position as a commander will really not be stable.

In case something bad happens, although the current emperor has a certain tolerance for these military attachés, it is estimated that he will inevitably escape the disaster of a knife if he commands such a martial arts hall.

"Lord Chen actually doesn't have any big problems, that is, his subordinate Chen Zhouwei is already full, but now the situation in Henan, Lord Chen also knows, and now the thieves have begun to target Henan, and they have begun to frequently want to wreak havoc in Henan."

"When it comes to Shandong, or even if there is something going on in Beizhili, the emperor always wants to drop some of Chen Zhouwei's army to support it."

"Therefore, although the establishment of Chen Zhouwei is full, the army is a little stretched thin, and the scale can no longer meet the current needs." Yuan Chao said that there was a powerful relationship, so that after Chen Wanshan heard what Yuan Chao said, he was also slightly relieved in his heart.

I didn't expect that I didn't want to ask for money and food from myself, but I wanted to expand the army.

The Yuan Dynasty wants to do a good job of his Chen Zhouwei's army, which is a good thing for Chen Wanshan, after all, the Yuan Dynasty's military merits are great, and he can also get some military merits, maybe one day he will be able to go up again.

Therefore, Chen Wanshan had a supportive attitude towards the Yuan Dynasty's desire to rectify Chen Zhouwei's army.

"That's really the same thing you're talking about. Chen Zhouwei's army was too important for the whole of Henan and even for many regions. A few thousand people is indeed not enough. Chen Wanshan nodded as he spoke.
