Chapter 247: Played Again?
"Did he really say that?" Sun Kui looked at Mu Nuan and said suspiciously.
"It's true!" Mu Nuan said categorically, "The last general dared to ask the marshal, for so long, the last general has been following the marshal, has there ever been any disrespectful behavior?" Have you ever given any orders to the marshal? Even my brother, if it weren't for the great handsome, he would have wanted to ...... today The last general is embarrassed, I'm afraid that he won't have any disrespectful words to the marshal, and the marshal says yes or no? β
Sun Kui was silent.
In his impression, in the past few months, it seems that it is really as Mu Nuan said, Mu Nuan not only did not restrict him in anything, but even put forward a lot of useful suggestions for him, it can be said that if there is no Mu Nuan, it seems that it will not be so easy for him to sit in this handsome position so quickly.
Could it be that when Jia Rudao was in Lin'an City, he had already thought that he would have a brilliant day? Even, even thought of his own backwater?
Thinking of this, Sun Kui's expression was cloudy and uncertain.
Jia Rudao's ruthlessness, he has already seen it. With the eyes of his wandering rivers and lakes and seeing all kinds of people, he can naturally see it. On that night in Jia's mansion, Jia Rudao was definitely the first time to kill someone, and it could even be said that it was the first time to hold a knife. Otherwise, I wouldn't have almost cut myself.
With a ruthless heart, coupled with Jia Yidao's strategy, he has also seen it, after all, he is the first to understand, isn't it? Coupled with the sister of the concubine who spoils the harem alone, coupled with Jia Nidao's talent, it is already predictable that Jia Rudao will rise to the top.
Of course, the premise is that this time Jia Rudao can get out alive from the army that has no mouth.
When a person dies, it can only be an embryo of loess. As Jia Nidao, it fell into the hands of the Mongols, if he cooperated, it would be easy to say, if he didn't cooperate, maybe it would be a luxury to end up with a whole corpse.
It's not a good thing to be an enemy with such a person.
"Hehe, how could Ben Shuai embarrass Mr. Mu? How could this commander be that ungrateful man? However, since he is cooperating with Uncle Guo, I wonder if Mr. Mu can summon him to Uncle Guo, and if he can provide some food to the Houjin Army? Of course, the more ordnance, the better. β
Sun Kui didn't have any intention of covering it up at all, and he didn't blush and started to put forward conditions directly.
Seeing that Sun Kui was so thick-skinned, Mu Nuan scolded in his heart, bowed down and said: "Since the marshal has said it, the last general will naturally do his best to inform my family of the marshal's requirements, and let Brother Wang bring back the letter and newspaper of the marshal." β
Speaking of this, Mu Nuan paused, got up and looked at Sun Kui and said: "The Houjin army is on Hebei West Road, while the Great Song Dynasty is in the land south of the Yangtze River, and after crossing the Yangtze River, more than a thousand miles of land is the territory of the Mongols, even if my family has a heart, I am afraid that it is really ...... to transport a lot of grain to Hebei West Road Difficult! Come to think of it, even if the general doesn't say these things, the big handsome can see it. β
Mu Nuan had long known about the lack of food in the Houjin Army. If it weren't for the capture of Zhending, Zhangde, and Zhongshan, the speed was fast enough, and the garrisons in the city did not have time to burn all the grain hidden in the treasury of these three mansions, I am afraid that the Houjin army would have been in chaos before the battle because of the food.
Hebei West Road is not small, but the Houjin army swelled too fast and too fast. In just over a month, there were less than 100,000 people, and the violent expansion became more than 1 million.
Dozens of cities on the entire Hebei West Road, after the Mongols crossed the border, it was a problem for all of them to have more than one million people, not to mention that now there are so many soldiers who are obviously soldiers, most of whom are more robbers and bandits.
Compared with the million-strong army of the Houjin Army, the small land of Hebei West Road is still too small, so small that there is no way to raise this million-dollar Houjin army.
He also knew that the reason why Sun Kui turned a blind eye to the green forest bandits who came to him to burn and loot those big families in various cities was precisely because he needed the food hidden in the mansion by those big families.
But after all, the matter of fishing for all the water can't last long, not to mention that now those leaders of the green forest giants in Shandong and other places have made the people of Hebei West Road miserable, and the complaints are monstrous.
Although Mu Nuan only served as a battalion commander at most, and only managed less than 500 forbidden troops under his command, he also knew the truth that the army did not move the grain and grass first.
Therefore, at the beginning of the success of the Houjin Army, he once advised Sun Kui that the soldiers could be accepted, but the elite should be collected, right? Otherwise, even if there are millions of people, it is better to say that they win the battle against the Mongols in the battle, but if the momentum is not right, those soldiers who have not undergone any training are ghosts who urge their own lives.
They will run faster than anyone else.
It's a pity that Sun Kui didn't listen to his advice at all, or even if Sun Kui knew that what Mu Nuan said was right, he just didn't see it. After all, in the era of cold weapons, people are king.
Not to mention, it's not Sun Kui's family that dominates the Jin army after this, right? Aren't there still two factions, the left general Lu Ping and the right general A Guta? Everyone else is recruiting, Sun Kui is the commander, if there are not more than two generals under his command, how can he serve the public?
"Mr. Mu has a point. However, Ben Shuai thought that with the means of Uncle Guo, there would naturally be a way to send the food. Otherwise, even if I, the million-dollar post-Jin army, want to work for my uncle and the Great Song Dynasty, I'm afraid that I have the strength to do it? What do you mean by that? Damn, what the scholar said was a mouthful, anyway, it was a sentence, the Houjin army had no food, even if Ben Shuai wanted to retreat to Jingcheng and other places, if there was no food, the army was afraid that sooner or later it would mutiny. β
Sun Kui was a single man, and he looked like he had no food or armament.
"The request of the marshal, the end will be passed on to the marshal. However, at the end of today, the general asked to see the marshal, not to persuade the marshal to lead his troops to retreat to Jingcheng and other places. β
"What's that?"
"My lord has a letter coming, the fate of the end of the general will tell sù Dashuai, Kouwen Buhua has not been bargained in Xiangyang City, and received the news of the chaos on Hebei West Road, and took the initiative to mention yì to negotiate peace with the Great Song Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty promised to negotiate peace with Mongolia, and now Kouwen Buhua has led more than 300,000 troops to return from Xiangyang City to the north."
"What?"
Sun Kui and Lao Cai heard Mu Nuan's words, and they all lost their voices.
"The mouth is warm, and the army has returned." Mu Nuan repeated affirmatively, and then added again as if he remembered something: "Although my family has ordered people to send messages day and night, it is said that the mouth temperature is not very urgent, I am afraid that there will be a few days at most, and the Mongolian Sect King will lead the army to Hebei West Road without taking the mouth temperature to do so." β
"Jia Rudao, that kid dared to bully me like this! Ahhh β
Sun Kui angrily pointed at Mu Nuan and Wang Zhidao.
Kou Wen Buhua personally supervised the division to the south of Xiangyang City, and constantly transferred troops to the south, guiding the entire Central Plains and other places except for the fortress land, which was unprecedented emptiness, and he also listened to Jia Nidao's orders before raising troops.
This is the antecedent, everyone knows. But now, he has successfully disrupted the golden land. Originally, he thought that between Kouwen Buhua and the Great Song Dynasty, he was afraid that there would be at least a dragon and tiger fight, but it was more likely that Xiangyang City was broken, and Meng Heng and Jia Yidao both died in Xiangyang City.
Compared with Mongolia, the gap between the military strength of the Great Song Dynasty is too far. This is what everyone in the world can see in the two countries' years of fighting, and the Great Song rarely has the upper hand on the battlefield, so they can only passively let the Mongol army wreak havoc at will.
This is also the main reason why Sun Kui suddenly decided to turn his face with Jia Yidao.
With a dead person, it doesn't seem to be a face-turn, right?
Mu Nuan said that he didn't get a good deal if he didn't spend his mouth, and Sun Kui wouldn't believe it if he was killed. Then the only possibility is that Jia Rudao and Kouwen Buhua reached some kind of agreement, and Kouwen Buhua hurriedly returned from Xiangyang City to the north.
No wonder Jia Rudao has been helping the Houjin Army like that before, and he has never been stingy with weapons, gold and silver.
Sun Kui felt that he was once again being played by Jia Yidao's little child!
