Chapter 22: Secretly Sending Troops (2)

[The first update, ask for red tickets, collect]

"Weiyuan?" Gao Zunyu and the others each read the word in their mouths, and immediately reacted together, and their faces all changed.

"Do you want to use the money and grain to build Weiyuan Fort?!" Miao Zhu asked in surprise.

"And manpower."

In terms of military prowess—especially at the tactical level—Han Gang was not outstanding. It's okay to have a strategic vision, there is no problem with shaking a goose feather fan and strategizing in the strategic, if you really want him to go into battle to command, you must be blind. But he does not lack the mind to be flexible in officialdom and in the workplace, what to do if he is short of money, it is very simple, just two words-

- Appropriation!

The expansion of Weiyuan Fort was abandoned, and the special funds for construction were diverted to military expenses to ensure the supply in wartime.

In order to expand Weiyuan Fort, the money and grain prepared by Wang Shao were more than enough for military expenses, and the application for the transfer of Qinzhou people was also approved by Qinzhou City early. Originally, the plan to build Weiyuan was to use the time before the winter wheat sowing in October, and these fort-building people could be used to transport grain, grass and ordnance.

Han Gang's suggestion was not unusual, and several people in the hall could actually think of it. But Miao Zhu didn't dare to think about it, what Han Gang said as a pacifying driver, although he was a high-status capital inspector, he couldn't say or think about it. And Gao Zunyu and Wang Hou probably had a fixed trend in their thinking, and they didn't think about it in that direction.

It's just Wang Shao...... Han Gang always felt that when he said his advice, the eyes of his immediate boss flickered, and his expression after that did not change to the same surprise as Gao Zunyu and Miao Zhu.

With Wang Shao's intelligence, it would not be strange to think of this idea, Han Gang felt that it was normal, he guessed, probably he had thought of it a long time ago, if he didn't speak, Wang Shao would have to bring it up himself.

"What about Weiyuan Fort?" Wang Hou asked Han Gang, "You can't help but cultivate, right?" ”

The plan to build Weiyuan Fort was handed over to Qin Feng's Economic Strategy Division and the Privy Council early, and even the Son of Heaven was concerned about this matter. Wang Hou was worried that if it could not be completed on time, the imperial court would definitely condemn him. But Han Gang was not afraid, and the victor was not blamed, "As long as this battle is won, the imperial court will reallocate money." ”

"What if you lose?" Gao Zunyu asked.

"Of course you'll be condemned." Han Gang said categorically.

Gao Zunyu's expression suddenly became a little more gloomy, although Han Gang's answer was the truth, it was not what he wanted to hear.

"The result is the same," Wang Shao's deep voice sounded: "If the use of troops is not smooth, if there is a difference, the strength of the Xingluo Junction will inevitably be greatly expanded." At that time, even if there was money, food, and people, it was impossible to expand Weiyuan Fort in front of their eyes, and they would still be punished. ”

As Wang Shao said, if the battle fails, the two plans of Han Gang and Miao Zhu are actually the same result, and it is impossible for Weiyuan Fort to be built. Since the consequences of failure are the same, and the probability of success in sending troops is that Han Gang's plan is a little higher than that of Miao Zhi - no matter what, it is better to have an army of 3,000 than a thousand people to take risks - then it is naturally self-evident which plan to choose.

Wang Shao spoke out to endorse Han Gang's plan, and Gao Zunyu also nodded in agreement after thinking it out. Weiyuan Fort was going to be expanded, which even Beiqiang knew, and used this as an excuse to solicit allies everywhere and try to fight against the imperial court. Therefore, even if Weiyuan Fort suddenly had thousands of more people and soldiers, and large cars and small cars were shuttling back and forth on the official road, Beiqiang Xingluo Jie would not be overly nervous. As long as the soil is rammed for two days, let the Xingluo Junction relax its vigilance. Next, there were 3,000 strange soldiers who raided the Star Luo Junction City under the Exposed Mountain.

Whether it is in terms of feasibility or success rate, Han Gang's plan is indeed a step higher than that of Miao Zhi. Miao Zhi was not unhappy about this, if there was a more secure way, he was not willing to take risks, after all, it would be him who would lead the troops into battle at that time. He is the inspector of the West Road, and for Miao Zhu, it doesn't matter whether Weiyuan Fort is expanded or not, as long as there is a war.

It's just that Miao Zhu still wanted to confirm the power of his leader, so he asked tentatively: "Do you want to inform Qinzhou in advance?" ”

Han Gang looked at Gao Zunyu and then at Wang Shao, both of them were expressionless. No one wants to watch Guo Kui get involved in this matter, the credit is not much, a small piece of cake, with Guo Kui's identity, will inevitably share most of it, maybe he will send Yan Da to preside. Qin Feng Jing Strategy Division bit down like this, and as a subordinate organization, the Edge Pacification Division was left with only the residue and crumbs to lick and eat.

Wang Hou cast an inquiring look, and Han Gang said: "It's better to wait until the money and grain, the people, and the various armies that go to war are in place, and it's not too late to mention it at that time." ”

According to Han Gang's plan, even if he went to war, the money and food would still have to be sent to Weiyuan, and the people would also have to be sent to Weiyuan, and then send troops in the name of guarding the fort. Whether it is money and food, people or guards, they are all steps that have been determined in the planning of fortification. Since the same work was done at the beginning, there was no need to tell the Scripture that it was for war, not for fortification. When the preliminary work is completed, find an excuse to notify Guo Kui, and there will be no problem.

"After arriving at Weiyuan Fort, Beiqiang Xingluo Jie will definitely continue to send people to Weiyuan to spy on it. At that time, it is logical to say that he has the intention to rebel and must strike first. ”

Han Gang spread out the words and said. If you want to add sin and no excuse for any trouble, these two sentences are useful wherever you put them. As long as you want to fight, it is easy to find a reason to send troops. Once the Fan people appeared near Weiyuan Fort, no matter which part they were—even if they were real merchants—they could be said to be spies of other Qiang.

In order to protect the safety of Weiyuan Fort, the Marginal Pacification Division had to send troops, who can say that it is not?

……………………

In late August, when the autumn wind gradually rose, the first batch of 400 people arrived in Guwei.

This group of people from Chengji County was arranged to live in an empty camp in the city. However, in order to check whether there is any escape, it is necessary to do an inventory before moving in.

Although these 400 people looked at the chaotic swarm, they were all divided into small groups according to the different places of household registration, and there was their own order in the chaos. And when the military attache who led the group of people shouted a few times, they all quieted down, and after a few clicks, even the queue was lined up. After driving hundreds of miles, everyone's spirit is not bad, and they are all strong men, it seems that Qinzhou should have been selected in advance, and they did not use some old, weak, sick and disabled to fill the number.

However, this is also reasonable, building forts on the border is an important matter in the army, and Guo Kui will certainly not pay attention to it. The use of folk in all dynasties has a history of thousands of years, and after it was established by the Song Dynasty, it was not a day to build a large number of buildings on the edge of the western part of the country. If you can't do even the most basic organization for the people, how can you create a fortified area that stretches for more than 2,000 miles and is hundreds of miles deep in the middle of the lofty mountains.

Wang Hou was in charge of the work of checking the people, and after a quarter of an hour, he came back with a smile, "None of them escaped, all of them have arrived." It's up to Yukun now. ”

"Zhu Zhong!" Han Gang called the director of the Guwei Sanatorium, "You first pick two capable medical workers in the sanatorium, and then go to Weiyuan with the people tomorrow and set up the shelves of the military medical hall first." In a few days, when Weiyuan has more people, a team will be transferred from you, and you will have to select people in advance. ”

Zhu Zhong, who was pulled out of Han Gang's people's hand, regarded Han Gang's orders as if they were holy decrees, and nodded busily, "Don't worry, the villain must be carefully selected." ”

"Third brother, you have to pick a few more good Langzhong, so that they don't have to panic when they stay in Guwei." Wang Sunchen just followed Wang Hou to check the people and came back, and he will be the one who will take the lead and be the vanguard of the whole army tomorrow. In the predestination, in addition to the first batch of 400 people, Wang Sunchen will also bring a cavalry under his command to suppress the formation.

He has been following Han Gang for a long time, and he knows the benefits of medical care in the army. Whether it is called Lang Zhong or a medical worker, there are people who come out of the sanatorium to preside over the health care in the camp, which can prevent the epidemic from causing unnecessary losses to his soldiers.

"Zhu Zhong, did you hear that?" Han Gang said to Zhu Zhong.

Zhu Zhong nodded vigorously: "The villain understands, the villain understands." ”

Wang Sunchen clenched his fists, the bone joints rattled a few times, and an ugly face smiled hideously: "With a military doctor, you don't have to worry about injuries." This time, I will behead a few hundred more heads, and let Taiwei Yan in the state city take a look......"

"Be quiet!" Wang Hou hurriedly reminded Wang Sunchen that he wanted to kick him.

In this battle, the 3,000-strong army was led by Miao Zhi, and Wang Sunchen was the deputy general. Although his actual age is one year younger than Han Gang, if Gao Zunyu is not included, Wang Sunchen's official rank is actually second only to Miao Yu among the military generals in Guwei Village. Although he was not yet able to participate in the most secret military discussions, after the meeting, the plan called the fort and the raid on the Xingluo Junction was quickly informed to him.

But except for a few civil and military officials in the ancient Wei City, everyone only knew that Lu Dao was only going to build Weiyuan Fort this time. If you behead hundreds of levels, you can't even mention a word. Wang Sunchen knew that he had lost his words, and pursed his lips and said nothing. In his eyes, Yan Da is a thief who stole the credit of Chong Wulang, and Guo Kui is the mastermind behind the scenes. In front of Wang Hou and Han Gang, he didn't hide his disdain for Yanda at all.

"Brother Wang, you go back early today to rest. ...... tomorrow" Han Gang paused, and together with Wang Hou, he looked behind Wang Sunchen. The sound of footsteps came from behind, and Wang Sunchen turned around with the sight of the two, but saw that the person who came was Wang Weixin, the personal attendant of Wang Shao.

Wang Weixin walked quickly to Han Gang Wang Hou, hurriedly saluted, and said, "A monk is here, saying that he is here by order." Wang appeased and asked the two of them to hurry back to the yamen. ”

"Monk?" Han Gang and Wang Hou glanced at each other and asked, "What is his legal name?" ”

"Wisdom."
