July 19, noon.

At this time, the weather in Nishikawa Shigeki is as hot as a furnace.

So much so that Fu Youde, whose hometown is in the north, stayed in the room for a while, and then had to go out of the room and go out to enjoy the cool because of the hot weather and sweating.

"See the general!" As soon as he went out, in this hot weather, the two loyal Qianhu who were still guarding the door for him couldn't help but kneel on one knee and salute Fu Youde.

In this regard, Fu Youde, who was personally promoted by Zhang Shihua to the general of the Chu army because of his great achievements, couldn't help but nodded, learning from his old boss, and pretending to be flat to let the two of them stand up from the ground.

"Well, don't stay here anymore. Come, come out with me. ”

"Yes!" When the two short-range guards heard this, they couldn't help but be full of excitement.

Now, Fu Youde's name of bravery has long been spread throughout the Western Army.

And the fact that he was directly promoted to a brigade general from the original team leader added great impetus to all the grassroots generals.

After all, whether it is in terms of background or qualifications, Fu Youde has nothing to boast about.

And such a person was exceptionally promoted to a brigade general in charge of a thousand armies because of his bravery, and a single point is enough to show that among the Chu army, there is only talent.

After this incident, Fu Youde couldn't help but be set up as an example for grassroots generals.

Almost all the grassroots generals can't help but be like Fu Youde, seizing opportunities in the war, relying on their own skills, to soar.

As for Fu Youde, who suddenly became a role model for most grassroots generals. I was a little unaccustomed to it at the beginning, but after a few days, I got used to it.

After all, it's really nice to be adored.

But fortunately, Fu Youde is not the kind of person who is greedy for vanity.

So he didn't get fluttering because of this, and even for his old boss who is now at the same level as him, he still maintains a lot of respect.

is because among the upper-level generals, Fu Youde's reputation is not bad, and he was not killed because of this.

"This western Sichuan and southern soil are different from the north! Not long after the summer grain was harvested, the autumn grain was about to be harvested again. No wonder people say that Jiangnan is rich, a single point, a long time is not comparable to the northern country that can only harvest wheat once a year! ”

When taking a walk in the shade, looking at the well-grown and green rice fields in the fields, Fu Youde, who was born in a farmer's family, couldn't help but feel it.

But after saying this, Fu Youde couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle when he touched the calluses on his hand because he was used to touching weapons.

My favorite thing back then was to dance with guns and sticks, but if the world had not fallen into chaos, my life was estimated to be like my father, facing the loess all day long, and working every year for things such as spring ploughing, summer planting, autumn harvest, and winter storage.

How can he be like now, commanding thousands of armies and being admired.

is like this, Fu Youde really can't help but feel that his life is good, and he has encountered such a chaotic era.

Sitting under a big tree, Fu Youde thought secretly in his heart.

Then he turned his head to look at the east, and couldn't help but be more grateful to Zhang Shihua, the king who was far away in Jiangling.

He knew that if it weren't for Zhang Shihua's attention and promotion, he would never have everything he has today.

As for their own bravery, it is secondary. There are many brave and extraordinary people in the world, but if no one values them, what can they accomplish just by relying on the courage of their husbands.

Just like when he was under Liu Futong, he was happily abandoned by Liu Sixteen because of five hundred pairs of plate armor.

Thinking so much in his heart, Fu Youde, who was leaning on the big tree, couldn't help but be speechless for a long time.

……

"General Fu, General." After a long time, a hurried pro-guard suddenly shouted, which couldn't help but shock Fu Youde's spirit and retract his thoughts.

"What am I doing here?"

"General, the commander came to you and said that there was a discussion."

"Okay, I got it." Fu Youde nodded when he heard this, then stood up, no longer thinking about anything else, and strode towards the barracks of his current boss, the division commander Lu Zhen.

A moment later, in front of the barracks where Lu Zhen was, Fu Youde stepped forward.

And when they saw Fu Youde striding over, the two short-handed guards guarding Lu Zhen's tent in front of the camp gate couldn't help but hurriedly salute.

Then he took the initiative to open the door for Fu Youde, so that Fu Youde could step directly into the hall.

"The last general, Fu Youde, meet the commander!" When he stepped into the hall and saw Lu Zhen sitting on the handsome seat, as if he was dealing with military affairs, Fu Youde couldn't help but salute.

"Haha, Youde is here. Quick, sit down and talk. Seeing Fu Youde coming, the teacher Marshal Lu Zhen couldn't help but look very enthusiastic.

He himself is a brave and extraordinary person, and like Fu Youde, he is from a peasant family. Therefore, I can't help but have a good impression of Fu Youde, a subordinate.

"Master Xie." Over there, Fu Youde is not a twisted person. Hearing this, he thanked him, and then sat down under Lu Zhen in his robe.

"Youde, can the injuries on your body be healed?" Waiting for Fu Youde to sit down in his robe, looking at Fu Youde sitting there, Lu Zhen smiled slightly, and asked with concern.

"Master Xie cares, and the general's injury is no longer serious."

"Haha, that's fine, that's fine." Lu Zhen smiled when he heard this, and then he habitually crossed his hands, looked at Fu Youde, and couldn't help but continue: "It is said that Youde, your injury has just healed, and this handsome should not let you go out at this time."

After thinking about it, I still can't help but feel that this matter is the safest only if you come out. ”

"The commander has something, and despite the orders, the general will definitely do his best." Hearing this, Fu Youde didn't say a word, so he expressed his attitude to Lu Zhen.

Therefore, when Lu Zhen saw this, he nodded and said "okay" again, and then he couldn't help but look pale, and said to him: "Although the pseudo-Xichuan right man is dead, Xichuan is not a group of dragons without a leader at this time.

According to the report from our army's secret agents, the Yuanmeng puppet Xichuan Pingzhang Langge was buying horses and recruiting troops in Suining Prefecture, Tongchuan Prefecture at this time, in a vain attempt to recapture Chongqing Road from our army. In this regard, the marshal originally planned to directly send the people of the three divisions to the north and directly defeat the incompetent Lang Ge gangster in one fell swoop.

However, the land of Xichuan is mountainous, hilly, and the road is difficult to travel, if there is no capable pioneer to open the way, it is very likely to be ambushed by the Tartars, thus losing the soldiers in vain. It is in such a situation that our army needs a vanguard to open the way for the great army.

In this regard, the master couldn't help but be the first to think of Youde you. And since you have no objection to Youde, then the day after tomorrow, you will also lead the people of the headquarters to don't go on. This time, your goal is to take Qingshi Mountain and Anyue County under Suining Prefecture for the army.

After taking these two places, our army's grasp of capturing Suining in the future will also increase the chances of victory by 30%. So this time, you must also be cautious, understand? ”

"Yes, my subordinates obey!" When Fu Youde heard this, he hurriedly agreed.

"Well, then you can go down and get ready to go. The day after tomorrow, the army will be immediately mobilized. ”

"Yes!" When Fu Youde heard this, he responded respectfully again. Then he gave Lu Zhen a fist salute, and then couldn't help but turn around and exit the barracks.

……

Two days later, the day after tomorrow.

Fu Youde couldn't help but lead more than 1,000 soldiers and horses under his tent out of the camp stationed in the north of Ba County, and went north along the river in the direction of Suining Prefecture.

"General, the previous convenience is the Diaoyu Mountain in Shizhao City, Hezhou, and when you get here, if you go further, you can't take the waterway anymore. The river channel ahead has too many bends and the water is too fast. On a medium-sized river boat, the local boatman's guide pointed to the hill that loomed in front of him, and he couldn't help but say in a thick Sichuan voice.

However, hearing the words of the boatman's guide, Fu Youde couldn't help frowning again, and habitually looked at the soldiers who were not tall or very sturdy.

"General, the boss of the boat said that when we get to the front, we can only get off the boat and walk." The soldier repeated the words of the boatman's guide in a somewhat broken northern dialect, as if he had become an interpreter of the communication between Fu Youde and the boatman.

And don't be funny about that.

It's really because of this year, the difference between the local dialects is too great.

Fortunately, Da Chu is on his side, because Zhang Shihua knows the importance of language communication, so it can be said that he has fully implemented the northern official dialect under his rule over the years (the official dialect of the Yuan Dynasty was not a northern dialect at the beginning, but a Yuanmeng dialect. But with the continuous sinicization of the Yuanmeng aristocracy, the northern dialect has officially become the official language of the Yuanmeng Empire). Therefore, as a northerner, Fu Youde's communication with his subordinates from Huguang in the south is not too much of a problem.

can be placed in a newly attached place like Qinglu, Fu Youde, who is completely different from Sichuan Yin, communicates with the local people, but it is quite a headache. So much so that in order to facilitate communication, Fu Youde also had to bring an interpreter with him.

"Okay, I see." When the soldier finished translating, Fu Youde nodded.

Then he looked at the Shizhao City of Hezhou, which was about to arrive, and couldn't help but return to the cabin, close his eyes and recuperate.

"General, General. We're almost there, and it's time to get off the ship later. Almost two hours later, near evening, one of Fu Youde's personal guards woke Fu Youde from his sleep.

"Okay, flag the other ships as well, so that everyone can prepare and get off the ship." Fu Youde wiped his face with a wet towel, gave such an order, and couldn't help but step out of the cabin.

……

Another half an hour, taking a group photo outside the city, approaching the evening, Fu Youde finally couldn't help but rush to the city with a group of soldiers and horses under his command.

"Is it General Fu Youde?"

Outside the city gate, a brigade general who was ordered to guard the city also personally greeted him at this time. And when he saw the military general who couldn't see his face clearly, he rode his horse to meet him, so he couldn't help but urge the horse to come out of the crowd, and asked like a fist from afar.

"This general is Fu Youde!" Seeing that this brigade general "senior" with an official position equivalent to himself personally greeted him, Fu Youde couldn't help but urge the horse forward and replied with his fists in his fists.

"Haha, it's really Youde. Youde came to the starry night at the same time, which can be described as hard. Come, come, I have prepared food, drink, and food for you and your brothers in the city, and let us go into the city first, and treat our stomachs. ”

"So, there is General Lao Wei." Both of them served as brigade generals in the Wu'an Army, and when they got acquainted, they saved a lot of politeness.

Therefore, Fu Youde just said like this, and he couldn't help but lead a group of soldiers and horses under his command under the leadership of Wei Dayong, the general of the Wu'an Army, into the photo city.

And because Fu Youde came this time, it was this banquet to receive Fu Youde that it didn't last too long.

But it's half an hour, after a full meal. Wei Dayong, the brigade general of the 3rd Brigade of the 1st Division of the Wu'an Army, couldn't help but give an order, and asked people to remove the messy meals on the table, take out the map of Suining Prefecture in Tongchuan Prefecture, and discuss the matter with Fu Youde.

"Come, look. This small city between the hills is Anyue. The geographical scope under the rule of this county is really not small, to the east all the way to the Qingshi Mountain, a radius of 100 miles, all of which are the land under the rule of this county. However, after all, it is Xichuan, and eighty percent of the land in this county is some mountains and forests, so the population of this county is not much.

According to the population of the Yuanmeng government, the population of this county is less than 5,000, and the number of people in the territory is only more than 20,000. However, it has to be said that although there are no major rivers in this county, it is a serious land artery.

You see, one hundred and fifty miles north of this county, is Suining. Three hundred and fifty miles south along the official road, it is the central Zhisoba County of our army in Xichuan. If this place is to the northwest, then three hundred and thirty miles away, Xichuan will become the capital.

It is to take this place, our army can press Suining at any time, take Suining, then attack Jianzhou to the west, and you can directly kill under the capital of Cheng. From this point of view, the burden on your shoulders is not heavy! ”

Wei Dayong said this, but his tone couldn't help but look sour.

Originally, if it was about qualifications, such an important task would not be his turn Fu Youde anyway.

But who let the above have the heart to set it up as a model?

You must know that even their king will pay attention to this general who has been easily brought by his own money from time to time, so it is not surprising that the people below have their own favors.

In this way, how could a general like Wei Dayong not be sour in his heart.

As for the change in Wei Dayong's tone, Fu Youde could naturally feel it over there.

So he didn't say anything about it.

Strength is not spoken of, but convincing others by deeds.

This is what Fu Youde firmly believes, and in the future, Fu Youde can't help but secretly make up his mind in his heart.

You must complete this task perfectly so that others can be convinced.
