There is no need for Zong Ai to remind him, everyone else present, including Tuoba Tao, has discovered that the soldiers of the Huaishuo Town Heavy Battalion are really good, and they are not worse than the soldiers and horses of the three major battalions.

If you really want to make a comparison, there is also a difference, Tuoba Tao found that the soldiers and horses of the Right Guard Army have been fighting all year round, and they have a fierce atmosphere; There is a pride in the soldiers and horses of the two garrisons; And the soldiers of this baggage battalion had a mighty momentum in them, and he saw military might in them.

Looking at it again, Tuoba Tao found that these baggage soldiers were very different from the baggage soldiers of the Right Guard Army and the Fertile Town, the baggage soldiers of the two battalions were yellow and thin, and they could not find a few strong people, while the soldiers of this baggage battalion were strong and powerful.

Tuoba Tao asked: "Zhao Junsheng, why are the baggage soldiers of the Right Guard Army and Woye Town all skinny, and these baggage soldiers of yours are so strong?" ”

Zhao Junsheng clenched his fists and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, if you want to make the soldiers physically strong, you want them to eat and drink enough except for drills, and there is no other way!" The reason why the baggage soldiers of the Right Guard Army and Woye Town are yellow and skinny must not have eaten enough, if they are all full, how can they all be yellow and thin? ”

Tuoba Tao couldn't help but look at Yasuhara, hoping that he would give an explanation.

An Yuan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, because the baggage soldiers are not soldiers, they don't have to undertake combat missions, so they don't need to have too much training, and the ration of grain and grass given by the imperial court is limited!" ”

Tuoba Tao also understood that the arrangement of the relevant yamen of the imperial court must be reasonable, and he asked Zhao Junsheng: "So you can eat enough for the soldiers of your baggage battalion?" ”

"I can't say that everyone will be fed, but at least everyone will not go hungry!" Zhao Junsheng replied modestly.

Tuoba Tao was puzzled: "Then I don't understand, why don't your soldiers starve, but the other baggage battalion soldiers do?" ”

Zhao Junsheng replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the ration of the baggage camp given to me from above is the same, if we don't find a way, we won't be able to eat!" After all, people are alive, and we can't starve and be indifferent, we raise some chickens, ducks, pigs, cattle and sheep and other livestock to add meat to the soldiers, and on weekdays, we also send people out to the rivers and lakes to fish, and use these fish to exchange for food for other friendly troops, plus every time we go to Shanwu County to escort grain and grass materials, by the way, we bring back some daily necessities that the soldiers like, sell them to earn some money, and then use the money to buy food, so that we can barely let the soldiers starve! ”

Tuoba Tao was speechless for a while, he had to admit that Zhao Junsheng was really talented, how many baggage battalions were there in the entire Northern Wei Dynasty? He didn't know very well, but he knew that there had never been a lieutenant of the baggage battalion who was so willing to use his brain as Zhao Junsheng.

At this time, Zong Ai said in due time: "Your Majesty, the slave maid only knows today, what does this 'man have to die more than man, and goods have to be thrown away'!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Zong Ai offended a large number of people, and the faces of An Yuan, Tuoba Jian, Pi Leopard, Su Guli and some other generals all fell, and they all scolded Zong Ai in their hearts for chewing the root of their tongues indiscriminately, and the eunuchs really didn't have a good thing.

Zong Ai didn't care about these people's eyes, he continued: "Your Majesty, the slave maid thinks that the matter of grain and grass in the army is a big deal, if the grain and grass cannot be supplied in time, the soldiers and horses of the army will definitely be disheartened, and the soldiers of the right guard army and the baggage battalion of Woye Town are all yellow-skinned, lazy and lazy. Or in the case of bad weather, the soldiers can't endure hardships and grit their teeth to persevere, and they can't transport the grain and grass back in time, which will inevitably cause riots. ”

Although there is a rule that eunuchs can't interfere in politics, Tuoba Tao has great trust in Zong Ai, and he didn't reprimand and punish him for interfering without authorization, but felt that Zong Ai was reasonable, and asked: "Xiao Ai, what do you think should be done?" ”

Zhao Junsheng, who was standing next to him, heard the title of "Little Love", and couldn't help but feel a stir, and goosebumps all over his body.

The others also looked strange when they heard this title.

Zong Ai seems to be accustomed to this title, it seems that the emperor often calls him that, he held the dust and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the slave maid thinks that the specialized people should be allowed to do specialized things!" ”

Zong Ai did not say a specific method, but said a line of thought, Tuoba Tao made a decision after a little thought, this Jinling battalion is extremely important at least until next summer, and must not be lost, the heavy battalions of each army seem to be a marginal military establishment, in fact, its role cannot be ignored at all.

After thinking for a long time, Tuoba Tao looked at Zhao Junsheng seriously, then looked at An Yuan, and directly ordered: "Temporarily transfer the baggage battalions of the three armies of the Right Guard, Huaishuo Town, and Woye Town separately!" Zhao Junsheng, I have appointed you as the commander of the Jinling battalion, commanding the three battalions of baggage soldiers, and the governor of the Jinling battalion grain and grass affairs, directly under the jurisdiction of General An Yuan! ”

Zhao Junsheng saw that Zong Ai was signaling to him to accept the order, he thought about it, is this a chore, the official position is only a temporary official position, the right guard army and the two baggage battalions in Woye Town have long been rotten, wouldn't it be troublesome for himself to take them over?

But if you don't accept the order, you can't do it, the Northern Wei Dynasty is not the Song Dynasty, during the Song Dynasty, there were often people who refused the emperor's appointment, people didn't serve, and the emperor really couldn't force others to be officials, but this is the Northern Wei Dynasty, don't accept the order to try? That's contempt for imperial power! If you don't do it, you have to do it!

Zhao Junsheng had no choice but to clench his fists and bow down and agree: "Obey!" ”

Tuoba Tao and his party walked around the camp and left, Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan followed behind this group of people until the emperor left the Jinling camp to breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately Tuoba Tao and others did not carefully inspect the camp of the baggage camp, otherwise the blacksmith shop and the tailor shop, the two workshops for forging weapons and armor, would be discovered, although he can be said to be used to repair weapons and armor, but it will inevitably arouse suspicion.

There is also the Modao team, but fortunately, there were soldiers who reported to him in time at that time, so that he had time to hide the Modao team, so he was not discovered by Tuoba Tao and others.

"Brother Junsheng, I heard that the two baggage battalions of the Right Guard Army and the Fertile Field Army are rotten, how are you going to manage them?" Seeing off the emperor and his party, Mulan asked on the way back to the camp.

Zhao Junsheng shook his head and said, "This thing is too sudden, I haven't thought about it yet!" Liu Chang, the captain of the baggage battalion of the Woye Army, and the captain of the baggage battalion of the Right Guard Army, do you think they will really listen to me? Although these two battalions are separately transferred to my jurisdiction, Liu Chang will only listen to Tuoba Jian, and he will only listen to Tuoba Jian, King of Yongchang, and the only thing I can manage in the end is the baggage battalion of Huaishuo Town! ”

Zhao Junsheng decided to wait and see what happened to Liu Chang and Qujin for the time being, and then make a calculation.

Putting this matter down first, Zhao Junsheng remembered that the cavalry competition seemed to be over, so he asked Lu Xuanbo: "Old Lu, do you know who is the final winner in the cavalry competition?" ”

Lu Xuanbo hugged the sword and replied: "I heard someone say just now, it is the general of the Right Guard!" ”

Zhao Junsheng was puzzled: "He? Buliu Guli has such a great ability? ”

Hua Mulan said beside her: "It's not surprising that Buliu Guli can win the first place, he is very strong in riding and fighting with Babakang!" Last time, although my horse was fed croton and couldn't fight anymore, if I were to fight against Babakang and Buliu Guli head-on, I wasn't sure to win against them! ”

Lu Xuanbo looked back and forth, and whispered to Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan: "The fifth princess doesn't seem to have gone with the emperor, but stayed, I received news that the emperor agreed to let her stay, limited to one year, and then the emperor will personally assess her, if the emperor can satisfy her, the emperor will let her stay in the army to command the army, if not, she will return to the palace with the emperor!" ”

Zhao Junsheng couldn't stand it the most when he heard the news, he was afraid that the five princesses would come to pester him, as long as she came, Mulan would definitely think crankily when she knew, he didn't want Mulan to be sad.

Hua Mulan looked at Zhao Junsheng's expression and sneered, "Brother Junsheng, why do you have such an expression?" Don't worry, if she goes to you, as long as you keep your distance from her, I won't be jealous! ”

Zhao Junsheng muttered in his heart, it's strange to believe you! Women say one thing with their mouths, but in fact, they often think the opposite in their hearts.

"I'm telling the truth, okay?" Mulan added seriously.

Zhao Junsheng shook his head: "I don't believe it!" ”

"Believe it or not!" Hua Mulan's heart was sweet when she said this, and she changed the topic: "Brother Junsheng, I'll teach you a way to rectify the Woye Heavy Camp and the Right Guard Heavy Camp!" ”

Zhao Junsheng became interested, "What's the way, let's talk about it!" ”

Hua Mulan immediately gave him an idea: "Aren't you very good at pretending to be pitiful?" You went to An Dashuai to cry, saying that Liu Chang and Qu Jin were disobedient, you couldn't control them, and you would remove this official position as the commander! An Dashuai will definitely not allow you to resign from your official position, and then you will propose to bring over the personnel appointment and dismissal rights of these two battalions, and An Dashuai will agree to it in order to appease you! ”

Zhao Junsheng pursed his lips: "What are you good at pretending to be pitiful?" Look at what you say about your husband! Is this my strategy for doing things? But you said that this method is indeed a good way, let's take the initiative without waiting for Liu Chang and Qu Jin to react, and it is better to take the initiative in our hands than anything else! ”

On the morning of the next day, Zhao Junsheng sent someone to summon Liu Chang, the commander of the baggage battalion of the garrison army in Woye Town, and the lieutenant of the baggage battalion of the right guard.

The two of them were late, and the people who went to inform them had come back for half an hour, and the two of them came slowly one after the other.

"Subordinate Liu Chang (go to Jin) has seen Dutong!"

Zhao Junsheng seemed very enthusiastic, and he invited the two of them to sit down, and asked someone to serve tea, but his behavior made Liu Chang and Qujin a little overwhelmed.

"What's the matter, what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd surnamed Zhao?" Qu Jin scolded in his heart and asked, "Dutong, I don't know what you ordered the two of us to come over?" ”
