Chapter 17: Lao Zhang is angry
Fifteen miles away from the place of last night's battle, in a slightly gentler section, the main force of Chen's army was temporarily stationed here. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In this temporary stop, Chen Jun set up some simple camp tents, and it was not too much to rest after marching for such a long time.
But it wasn't because of Wang Gushan that the marching speed of the army was slowed down, and no one knew.
Chen Jun's big tent of the Chinese army, because it was built temporarily, was relatively simple, and the influx of mountain wind blew the curtains inside to rattle.
At this time, the officers at the rank of Captain Chen Jundu all walked out of it with solemn faces.
Just now, they were once again strictly ordered not to go out to fight privately, and all actions had to be under the orders of the Chinese army's big tent.
Moreover, they also learned the news that Wang Gushan did not return all night after leading the team to attack, which also made them even more panicked.
You must know that their every move now must be cautious, and the invincible Great Wei State will always be able to bring heavy pressure to their hearts.
If they were discovered by the main force of the Wei army, they would probably die without a place to be buried.
"Alas! The state is difficult! Chen Junsima sighed.
The rest of the military officials all shook their heads, the country was weak, so they watched for the strong country, and the days of surviving in the cracks were naturally difficult.
But compared with the heaviness of the generals outside the account, the atmosphere inside the military tent is even more depressing.
Zhang Yunliang sat on the main seat, his face sinking like water.
This time, he led his troops to the expedition, which can be described as extremely unsmooth, and he lost troops along the way.
Although the army is far from being broken, it has also greatly dampened the spirit of the whole army.
This is undoubtedly fatal for Chen Jun, who is alone. Especially when they are facing an opponent who is overpowering the Wei army in the world.
"Wang Gushan, bastard!" Finally, Zhang Yunliang still couldn't hold back and scolded again.
Ji Hui on the side was also very angry with Wang Gushan, this guy hasn't come back yet, he must be more than lucky.
It's a pity that the army of the school captain has to be buried with Wang Gushan's stupidity nine times out of ten, this is one of the few cavalry in Chen Guo!
"General, let's wait, maybe Wang Gushan will be back soon."
Although he was also uncomfortable in his heart, Ji Hui still fulfilled his duties as a military advisor and began to comfort Zhang Yunliang, anyone can be chaotic, and the commander of the three armies is absolutely chaotic.
"The people who answered them have been sent out for an hour, but there is no news, I think Wang Gushan will not be able to come back." Zhang Yunliang said with a cold face and hatred.
Zhang Yunliang has never been so angry with his subordinates who do not obey orders and move the army only based on their personal whims.
He also knew a little about Wang Gushan's temper before. Therefore, when he first met Chen Bo, he did not approve of Wang Gushan's entry into this army.
It's a pity that the Wang family has a huge influence in the Chen State, and even Uncle Chen can't save their face.
In the end, Wang Gushan still became the captain of the cavalry, and Zhang Yunliang could not change it.
Ji Hui understood Zhang Yunliang's difficulties, and he also knew how important Zhang Yunliang's trip was to the victory or defeat of the war between the entire Chen, Qin, and Wei Kingdoms.
Therefore, he can understand Zhang Yunliang's extreme anger at Wang Gushan's irresponsible behavior.
"General, Wang Gushan is indeed not worthy of being a general of an army, after returning to the country, I will be the emperor and severely punish him." Ji Hui stood at the bottom, and his face was not lazy.
As the grandson of the prince of the public family, Ji Hui is actually not used to Wang Gushan, the children of the family.
But I can't get used to it, but the office and the family do share honor and disgrace, so Wang Gushan can't die yet, at least not under Zhang Yunliang's anger.
Looking at Ji Hui, who was looking at Ji Hui with an ancient and warm heart, Zhang Yunliang also sneered in his heart. Where does Ji Hui really want to clean up Wang Gushan, which obviously wants to save his head
Severe punishment? Doesn't that mean you won't be beheaded?
But if you really think about the office, you should eradicate Wang Gushan and these clans, otherwise they will suck the blood of my Great Chen Kingdom like leeches.
Shaking his head slightly, Zhang Yunliang stopped speaking, these are not things that he can decide, not all monarchs have the courage of the previous Wei Hou.
Just when Zhang Yunliang was worried about state affairs, someone from outside the military tent rushed over, "Report, General Chen Xiang is back." ā
After a while, the sound of armor colliding outside the tent was heard.
Then, a middle-aged man with a long face strode into the military tent, and he was followed by Wang Gushan's deputy general Gao An.
"Chen Xiang (Gao An) meets the general."
"Get up!" Zhang Yunliang's voice came from the handsome seat.
After a short salute, Chen Gao got up and stood aside, waiting for Zhang Yunliang's inquiry.
"Let's talk about it! How is the situation. After Zhang Yunliang rubbed his eyebrows, he asked a little irritably.
Chen Xiao glanced at Gao An, and after the other party nodded slightly, he completely described everything according to what he had explained.
"General Qiyu, the last general didn't see Wang Duwei, but I met more than a dozen of them along the way, and the last general learned the news of Wang Duwei's defeat last night." Chen Xiang said in a deep voice.
"Under their guidance, the last general found the place where Wang Duwei and the Wei people fought last night, in a forest between two hills, fifteen miles away from here."
Chen Xiang glanced at Zhang Yunliang and saw that he was looking at him fixedly, so he immediately lowered his head and continued:
"There, there are a lot of corpses of our sergeants, and after the last general sent someone to check, he didn't find Captain Wang."
"So...... The last general speculated...... Wang Duwei may not be dead. Chen Xiang raised his head slightly, and secretly glanced at Zhang Yunliang on the main seat.
"Hmph, he's dead." Zhang Yunliang said coldly.
After Chen Xiang finished his report, the scene suddenly quieted down, and there was a dead silence in the military tent.
Chen Xiang saw that there was nothing to do with him, so he retreated to the side, and the middle of the military tent was empty again.
At this moment, Zhang Yunliang raised his head, stared at Gao An, who was standing on the side, and said in a cold voice, "Vice General Gao, you explain, how can you stand here intact?" ā
Gao An's face tightened, he knew that this matter was going to be questioned, and he had to come through this level himself.
"Back to the general, the last general did not enter the battlefield with Wang Duwei."
As soon as Gao An's words came out, the scene suddenly became three points colder.
Zhang Yunliang was so angry that he laughed out loud later, you didn't enter the battlefield, aren't you just a deserter?
When you are a deserter, you dare to say it so confidently, and you are still in the military tent of this army, is it really that I am a clay sculpture of a general?
The more Zhang Yunliang thought about it, the more angry he became, he raised his hand and slapped the table heavily, and said angrily, "Bastard! ā
Gao An also knows that now it is a critical moment, whether he is dead or alive depends on what he says later!
If you can't explain your reasons, then you have to accompany those brothers who have already gone underground!
"General Rongyu, the last general tried hard to persuade Wang Duwei last night, so that he should not go deep alone, and be careful of being ambushed by the Wei people." Gao An did his best to keep his composure.
"But Wang Duwei didn't listen to me, and insisted on destroying that group of Wei troops, and was led into an ambush, but the last general thought that he would come back and pass the situation to you, the general."
"So, the last general didn't go in last night!"
"Then why didn't you come back last night?" Zhang Yunliang continued to ask.
"The Wei cavalry is cruising outside the ambush, and it will be difficult to get out." Gao An hurriedly said.
But Gao An didn't know which Wei cavalry he met last night was Zheng Dali and others.
If Gao Anshao had been outside to watch the excitement for a while, maybe he would have been able to run back in advance and pass the news to Zhang Yunliang.
On the throne of the military tent, after Zhang Yunliang listened to Gao An's explanation, he was silent, and his brows furrowed again, as if there was something wrong trapping him.
Seeing that Zhang Yunliang didn't mean to let himself go, Gao An breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he finally passed the test.
In the military tent, Zhang Yunliang didn't speak, no one spoke again, except for Ji Hui, everyone else was eager to completely wipe out their breath, for fear of being stimulated by Zhang Yunliang on the main seat.
His brows furrowed for a while, as if he had made a decision, and Zhang Yunliang finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
