Chapter 324: Borrowing Troops for Reinforcements, Three Questions to Solve Doubts (I)
With the permission of the Grand Commander, the head of the 100 households of the Tianhan Camp came out of the big tent and came to Jingsheng and Han Li and said, "Two generals, the Grand Commander of my family has invited the two generals to enter the account to discuss the matter. ”
"Good!"
Jingsheng and the others nodded slightly, then tidied up their clothes and helmets, held the sword lightly in their left hand, and came to the entrance of the big tent with their heads held high.
The guards guarding the door of the big tent did not dare to stop them, and opened the curtain and let the two of them enter to discuss the matter.
As for the head of the hundred households, his official rank is too low, but he is not qualified to enter the deliberations, so he can only stay outside the account.
Jingsheng and the two entered the big tent, came to the position of the chief of the three zhang sitting at the top, and bowed his hand and said, "I have seen the great commander." ”
The commander bowed slightly, stretched out his right hand, and led to the guest seat next to him: "Two generals are exempt, please take a seat!" ”
When they sat down, the commander took the lead in introducing: "Two generals, let me introduce you to the two." The four generals sitting opposite the two from left to right are the left capital of my Tianhan battalion, the right capital of the general, the southern Xinjiang Hou, and the Linyuan Hou. ”
When the two heard the introduction, they got up again and bowed their hands and said, "I've seen General Zuo Dutong, General Right, Southern Xinjiang Hou, and Linyuan Hou." ”
The four of them didn't dare to accept the salute, so they also got up and saluted back.
After both sides were familiar with each other and exchanged a few polite greetings, the commander asked again: "The two generals have come from afar from the imperial capital, and I should have entertained them with good wine and food, and washed the dust for the two generals." It's just that I just heard from my subordinates that the two generals came here because of the border war, so I would like to ask the two generals about the specific situation first. Also, I don't know if the seal letter jade pendant given by His Majesty can give me a look? ”
"Why not?"
Jing Sheng smiled lightly, stood up and walked to the Grand Commander, then took out the jade pendant from his arms and handed it to the Grand Commander.
The commander took it with both hands, and after taking a closer look, he was shocked, hurriedly returned it to Jingsheng, and left his seat, came to the ground below and said: "The last general has seen Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live, long live..."
This is he following the imperial etiquette and saluting the token of the Son of Heaven.
In the Han Dynasty and even the dynasties of the past dynasties, all the tokens given by the Son of Heaven, after other courtiers saw it, as long as the courtiers were still loyal to the dynasty and the Son of Heaven in their hearts, then the courtiers would treat the tokens as the Son of Heaven and bow three times and bow nine times.
Jingsheng helped the commander up, "The commander is exempt, Your Majesty once said to Lord Wang, seeing the letter of the jade pendant is like seeing me, all the generals of the Tianhan camp need to obey the dispatch of Lord Wang, stick to the border pass, and do not slack off." I wonder if the Grand Commander did what he was told? I don't know if the generals under the command of the Great Commander obey the orders and obey the transfer? ”
"This..."
As soon as the Grand Commander returned to his seat and sat down again, he heard Jing Sheng's words, and his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Two generals, I heard that this time, Lord Wang waved an army of six or seven hundred thousand to Gansu to aid Yumen Pass. I think that with the power of Lord Wang, with this army in hand, he will definitely be able to sweep away the Huns and barbarians. In this way, why does Lord Wang need tens of thousands of horses in my Tianhan camp? ”
Seeing that he neither refused nor objected, Han Li smiled lightly, "The Great Commander doesn't know anything. Although the major princes of the dynasty reached an agreement this time, they sent troops to attack the Xiongnu. However, it will take a long time for these princes to successfully assemble their troops and horses in a short period of time.
War waits for no one, and neither does time. At present, Lord Wang only has an army of 300,000 or 400,000, and with such a force, he still suffers a slight loss against the more than 400,000 Hun army with strong soldiers.
Moreover, the Huns were good at spying. This time, every move of the army led by Lord Wang was under the control of the Huns, and Lord Wang was not easy to use means against this. Therefore, Lord Wang specially asked His Majesty for a token, and wanted to transfer 50,000 elite iron cavalry from your Tianhan battalion, and hurried to the border pass to help, acting as a surprise soldier.
Before leaving, Lord Wang said that whether he could successfully destroy the invading enemy, sweep the countries, and deter the eight faminees of Kyushu this time, the success or failure was all in the Tianhan camp. If the Grand Commander is willing to obey the command, this will be done. If the commander is unwilling to obey the dispatch, I am afraid that hundreds of millions of people in our Han Dynasty will suffer from the flames of war. ”
When the Grand Commander heard this, his eyes half-narrowed, and he did not speak, but kept tapping his fingers on the table, thinking about the context.
After the remaining four generals heard these words, they were also secretly pondering.
In this way, for a while, everyone was silent and cold.
Jing Sheng and Han Li didn't dare to persecute these people at the moment. Because the generals are outside, the military orders are not granted. Whether the Tianhan camp galloped to the border pass or not to help 50,000 iron horsemen go to the border pass this time, it was all between the five people, and outsiders could not interfere. If it is forcefully persecuted, it will only backfire.
Of course, if it is really necessary, it is not impossible to force persecution, but it is just necessary to make good use of it and use it reasonably.
Everyone thought about it for a long time, and Nanjiang Hou asked: "It stands to reason that the two generals have His Majesty's seal in their hands, and they also have the Wang's oral edict, so we should obey the dispatch." It's just that I don't understand three things, I wonder if the two generals can solve their doubts? If I understand these three issues, I am willing to listen to the dispatch and rush to the border pass. ”
"What three things? Hou Ye can just say it. As long as I can answer the question, I will know everything, and I will say everything. ”
Jing Sheng and Han Li were overjoyed when they saw Nanjiang Hou speak.
They are not afraid that the other party will ask, but they are afraid that everyone will keep silent.
Especially the person who opened his mouth is still a marquis, with a high position and a wide range of soldiers.
In the Han Dynasty, all the frontier marquis had to be at least 10,000 households.
The so-called Wanhu Hou, Wanhu Hou, is exactly this.
If the generals under him did not exceed 10,000, if the general himself did not make great contributions, it would be impossible to have the title of Hou Ye.
Now since this southern Xinjiang candidate is the Hou Ye, it means that he has at least 10,000 soldiers and horses under his hands, and these 10,000 soldiers and horses are still from the Tianhan battalion.
Nanjiang Hou said: "First, you just said that Lord Wang plans to borrow 50,000 elite iron cavalry from my Tianhan battalion to serve as cavalry, I want to ask the two generals, what is a strange soldier?" What is the arrangement of Lord Wang? Second, how did Lord Wang learn about my Tianhan Camp, and how much does he know? I don't believe that Your Majesty will take the initiative to tell Lord Wang about this situation.
Thirdly, there are many hidden princes in some other territories. Why didn't Lord Wang borrow them, but instead came to me? ”
"Huh?"
As soon as he asked these two questions, the half-squinted eyes and the great commander who pondered the vein, as well as the general of the left capital, the general of the right capital, and Lin Yuanhou, all sighed lightly and became interested.
These are two questions, and they also want to know the answers.
In their opinion, every soldier in the Han camp on this day is their own hard work and their own family background. If you don't know what the situation is, you let people send their soldiers and horses away, and if the whole army is wiped out in the future, or if the damage is too great, won't it be too late to regret it?
The three questions raised by the southern Xinjiang Hou are exactly the questions in their hearts.
"Yes, yes, I would also like to know the answers to these three questions." The Grand Commander smiled and said, "General Jing, General Han, Lord Wang has had words. It is said that he is the commander of the army, and if he does not take the lives of the soldiers in his eyes, then he is not worthy of being a general.
At present, Lord Wang wants to dispatch my soldiers and horses of the Tianhan battalion, and as the commander of the Tianhan battalion, I naturally want to know the specific Qingming, so as not to have any accidents to the soldiers under my command. ”
