Chapter 419
Before the emaciated monkey-faced man could let out a cry of surprise, the man standing behind him had already put the dagger into the end, and the monkey-faced man's chest, and the other hand covered the monkey-faced man's mouth like an iron pincer, so that he could only kick his legs in vain, but he could not make a sound.
That person is not a bystander, it is the military lord of the 33rd Division, who is guarding the secrets of the army's march in accordance with the regulations, but he bumped into this monkey-faced man here, after killing the monkey-faced man in front of him who was watching the marching team, the military owl rummaged through the person's body, and then cut off a piece of the monkey-faced man's waist card, and returned to the marching team, and handed it to the commander of the 33rd Division with both hands. This was handed over to Li Wenyuan. Li Wenyuan took this waist card in his hand, weighed it a few times, and said to the commander of the 33rd Division in front of him with a gloomy face:
"These are the fourteenth people, and I don't care about them on weekdays. Why are they going to fight against me at their own death? You're right, Commander. ”
"I think His Royal Highness King Tang has said that you have done your best to these people, but as the saying goes, it will rain, and my mother will get married. These people are in a hurry to send them to death, Your Royal Highness King Tang, you can't stop them if you want to stop them on your own. If you want me to say, we might as well respect their ideas. If they say they want to die, we can fulfill them, and it won't take much effort anyway. It's better for these hairy boys under me to see blood than to lose their lives on the battlefield in the future. After listening to Li Wenyuan's words, the commander of the 33rd Division said to Li Wenyuan.
"I'm really feeling sorry for these night owls, it's not easy for us to cultivate a night owl. It is also not an exaggeration to say that every night owl is worth 10,000 gold. But they probably thought they were carrying out my orders until they died. Many of them may not know that their superiors have rebelled. What they are doing now is the behavior of the rebels. I'm really sorry for them. After listening to the words of the commander of the 33rd Division, Li Wenyuan shook his head and sighed, and whispered to the commander of the 33rd Division.
"His Royal Highness King Tang, don't you want our military lords to capture those night owls alive? You must know that in this case, it is indeed difficult for some strong people for these little novices under me who have not even grown hair. I'm not afraid they won't be able to capture them without harming them. I'm really worried that if these people really miss and don't capture the night stalker, then let this night stalker run back and report to the night stalker commander of Zhangye County to tell him our specific whereabouts, then we will probably face a fortified city with a closed gate.
If the siege is not carried out without the use of force, it is unlikely that those night owls who are determined to put you to death will never be able to open the gates of the city themselves and welcome us into the city, after all, that would be tantamount to being killed. At that time, facing the well-defended Zhangye County City, with more than 5,000 people in my division, I am afraid it will be difficult to capture it in a hurry.
If they knew that we had civil strife in Zhangye County, they would immediately launch a surprise attack on the army on our border, and with the civil strife in Zhangye County, they could even strategically achieve the goal of dividing our territory in two and making it difficult to support each other. At that point, we'll be completely on the back foot. ”
After listening to Li Wenyuan's sighing words, the commander of the 33rd Division said it with a smile to Li Wenyuan. Because Li Wenyuan has always given the impression that these people in the army are approachable, and they have no arrogance and a straightforward temperament. This makes these soldiers who are in the barracks all day long and do not ask about political affairs are very appreciative.
Therefore, when they talk to Li Wenyuan, they often do not have any psychological pressure, and they often say something when they think of something, and even if some jokes are slightly out of character, Li Wenyuan will not pursue them. Therefore, the commander of the 33rd Division will inevitably show some ridiculous sentences and tones in his words. This is a habit they have developed in their usual conversations with Li Wenyuan, and it is difficult to change it in an instant.
After Li Wenyuan listened to the words of the commander of the 33rd Division, the feeling of annoyance in his heart suddenly dissipated a lot. Immediately, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and then he said to the commander of the 33rd Division: "Don't say it, now you can't protect Xue Ju and Li Tang, especially Li Shimin, it is very likely that we already know that there is a mess in our Zhangye County."
After all, Zhangye County is in our hinterland, and it is also the key county capital connecting us with Wuwei County, and the key place for transportation. All our official roads, including the railroad that was built some time ago. There is no one who does not pass through Zhangye County. So in fact, the defense forces we have deployed in Zhangye County, of course, are defense forces in all aspects, and they can definitely not be called weak.
In fact, not strictly speaking, the defense force of this Zhangye County is not an exaggeration to say that it is strict. Therefore, people with a little brains would never choose to start a rebellion here. So now that I have heard your words, I am extremely suspicious that there is Li Tang's promoter behind these people? If there is Li Tang's promoter in this, then things will become a little difficult to do.
In other words, if there was no Li Tang's promoter in this, then it was the idea of the night owl of Zhangye County himself, which set off this rebellion. If there is Li Tang's promoter in this, then Li Tang wants to incite a riot in Zhangye County, and wants to use this riot to kill our connection with Wuwei County.
Even our connection with the entire territory to the east, we must know that except for Wuwei County, all the county capitals to the east have been conquered in the past year. The factories there are still far from being able to supply the local army. Therefore, most of the arms supply of the troops stationed there still relied on the transportation of the eight counties of the Western Regions to the east.
However, the node of this transportation is in Zhangye County, so as long as Zhangye County temporarily falls into civil strife and waits for a few days, then the county capitals from Wuwei County to the east will lose the supply of arms. At that time, it can only become meat on the chopping board, and Li Tang and Xue Ju can cut and eat it. ”
