Chapter Seventy-One: Intelligence
Chen Hu pondered for a moment, and said faintly: "This is true, if you want to rely on those wastes to capture Qingyun Village, it is simply wishful thinking, and when the battle will not last for a long time, the army will not be able to eat and grass, which can easily affect the morale and cause the soldiers to disperse." ”
The waste in his mouth is not the garrison of Shangjun County, but the family members and guards of those powerful forces.
"Yes, once the war of attrition is fought, as soon as our grain delivery team enters the vertical and horizontal mountains, it will be targeted by those thieves, and then the soldiers will run out of food, their morale will be weakened, and they may be attacked by other thieves in the cottage."
"That's true!"
"Makes sense."
Those generals also talked about it.
Chen Hu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How is the contact with Chunyu Datou of the Xianbei tribe?" How many war horses did they agree to sell to us? ”
The scholar looked around, Chen Hu waved his hand impatiently and said, "These are the henchmen of this general, it doesn't matter if you speak out." ”
"Chun Yu Wang's meaning, the general wants to provide 5,000 catties of pig iron, 60,000 catties of grain, 10,000 feet of cloth and cotton wool, and 100,000 white feather arrows, and he will exchange 3,000 elite war horses with you."
When Chen Hu heard this, he was furious and said, "Let go of the fucking fart." He slammed his fist on the desk and roared, "What does this dog think of General Ben?" How dare a lion open his mouth! ”
When the generals heard this, they also changed color, they only knew that Chen Hu was going to go to Guanwai to buy war horses, but they didn't want the other party to offer such conditions.
"Isn't it time to trade gold for horses?" Some generals also expressed doubts about this.
"It's so cold, and our soldiers also need cotton wool to survive the winter. Give them 10,000 feet of cotton wool, and what about those new soldiers we recruited? ”
The scholar watched coldly, and saw that Chen Hu and his generals expressed their dissatisfaction, and said in a condensed voice: "Generals, King Chunyu is a famous hero, and he is willing to trade war horses with Shangjun County, which is our blessing." Besides, the things he asked for were not excessive, these things may be huge for the generals, but for those powerful forces, there is no need to worry at all. ”
"Think twice, general!" There are also generals who open their mouths to persuade.
Chen Hu just lowered his head and thought deeply with a deep face.
Xu Da is going to serve in the state and county next month, and the new county order of the county has not yet arrived, these days, Xu Da has been playing in the streets all day long, and even moved out of the back office and gave the county government to Chen Hu.
And Chen Hu will naturally not be polite, he prefers the magnificent county government decorated to the cold and simple camp tent, Shangjun County is a remote place, and Youzhou Thorn Shi is more blind to the situation here.
Xu Da was also happy to be idle, and gave up the power of Shangjun County early, so as not to have a conflict with Chen Hu.
The original Shangjun county government is now stationed in a group of officers and soldiers, these officers and soldiers are arrogant and arrogant, and even have a lot of conflicts with the catchers, and the result of the conflict is often this group of catchers, and even the catchers of the county government have been whipped several times by Chen Hu's subordinates.
The crowd dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and the county lieutenant was helpless about it.
After Chen Hu became the lord of Shangjun County, his methods were more arrogant than Xu Da, Xu Da also took into account some local powerful forces, for those families, he could win over them, and if he couldn't win them, he would not be offended.
Only then did everyone understand that in troubled times, holding military power is the last word, and now Chen Hu has become the emperor of Shangjun County, ordinary restaurants and shops, there are soldiers who go to knock bamboo every day, and those Qinglou gambling stalls no longer regard the capture of fast and Dutou as the general offering, Chen Hu has become their new backer.
The powerful forces in Shangjun County complained about this, and they even missed the days when Xu Da was there, when Xu Da would deal with them in many ways, sell interests, and even govern Shangjun County together.
Chen Hu had military power, and he would not take into account the feelings of these powerful forces at all, not only borrowed food from them by force, but also simply purged the officialdom of the entire Shangjun County, and all the sons and daughters of these powerful forces who served in Shangjun County were all driven back.
The heroes in these places dare not speak out, and they want to gather the guards of Zhuang Ke and tear their faces with Chen Hu, but they are afraid of the strength of the officers and soldiers, and secretly plan a few times, so they have to reluctantly give up the plan.
In the battle of Qingyunzhai, Chen Hu, who had seen the strength of these places, disdained it.
Xu Da also saw Chen Hu's approach, but he was about to leave Shangjun County, and he didn't bother to care about these idle things, and at the same time, seeing Chen Hu deal with the problem so arrogantly, he was also secretly happy in his heart.
When I was in power, you made trouble for me for three days and two ends, which made me unhappy, and now you have changed to a soldier, you know the benefits of the old man, right? It's a pity it's late.
Chen Hu thought about it again and again and decided to make this deal with Chun Yu Datou.
Youzhou did not have many soldiers to replenish him, although he was able to recruit troops on the spot, but these recruits were either farmers who had never been trained, or people who had not been on the battlefield much.
It is almost impossible to rely on this group of people to guard the county and fight against the bandits and bandits in the vertical and horizontal mountain ranges.
Since Chen Hu had made a decision, even if the other generals and schools were opposed, they could not do anything, and the scholar put on a faint smile and watched coldly as the generals and schools left the county government one after another.
Inside the large camp outside the city.
As soon as General Xu Bi, who had just returned from the county office, entered the barracks, he saw a man in full armor standing in a big tent, and behind him stood several personal soldiers.
"Captain Yuan, why are you here?" As soon as General Xu Bi saw the visitor, he immediately let down his guard, long before he followed Chen Hu and stationed in Shangjun, he had contacts with this person, and the relationship between them was not bad.
"I have a military order, and when I pass by here, I will come to see my brother." Captain Yuan stroked a pinch of his beard, and asked with a slightly obscene expression, "Brother Xu seems to be in a bad mood?" And I saw that Brother Xu's subordinates were all listless, I don't know what happened? ”
"Heh......" Xu Bijiang remembered that without his permission, his subordinates actually put outsiders into the camp tent, although this Yuan Xiaowei and himself are old friends, but his subordinates were so negligent that he lost some face in front of his friends.
"Brother, I've not had a good time lately." General Xu Bi shook his head and spit out the stuff in his heart, while General Yuan Bi listened quietly on the side, pouring wine to General Xu Bi from time to time.
Seeing that General Xu Bi was drunk, Captain Yuan's triangular eyes couldn't help but turn, "You mean, that Chen Hu has already moved to Shangjun County?" ”
General Xu Bijiang burped and snorted coldly: "Yes, I have followed Chen Hu for more than three years, and I have always been loyal to him, who knows that this time he only brought a few wastes surnamed Gong and Zhao Cai into the city, and my department can only nest in this wilderness." ”
Captain Yuan hurriedly put on a surprised look and said: "Then Zhao Cai's subordinates are far from Brother Xu's subordinates, this Chen Hu actually took Zhao Cai and other troops into the city, and let Brother Xu stay outside the city?" ”
