Wang Huashi lost his voice and said, "You mean the Han manager of Luzhou?" ”

What Wang Huaqiang is talking about is another famous general of the Sui Dynasty, Han Baohu, who is now the governor of Lujiang (now Hefei).

Han Baohu's father, Han Xiong, was a general from the Western Wei Dynasty to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and once abandoned his wife and children to defect to the Western Wei Dynasty, the founder of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yuwentai, who had made great achievements and became a general, and the name of bravery spread all over the world.

Han Baohu inherited his father's excellent military general genes, since he was a child, he was good at riding and shooting, strong martial arts, his real name is Han Baobao, when he was thirteen years old, he killed a tiger with his own hands, and since then he has changed his name to Han Baohu.

Yuwentai once saw Han Baohu when he was a child, when the young Han Baohu was already stronger than children of the same age, and his appearance was also magnificent and abnormal, with a beard that only adults have, so Yuwentai specially let the young Han Baohu enter the palace and accompany the prince to study and practice martial arts.

Unlike the sons of nobles who usually accompany the prince to study just to play with the prince, Han Baohu took this opportunity to familiarize himself with various military books and war books, especially to have a deep understanding of the way of Sun Wu, not only is he extremely brave, but he has also cultivated into a master of the art of war.

After Han Baohu grew up, he guarded the Hezhou area for many years, and repeatedly repelled the Chen army to take advantage of a series of changes such as the Northern Zhou Dynasty to destroy the Northern Qi Dynasty, and Wei Chi to raise troops to rob the fire, and the Chen Dynasty general Ren Zhong (nicknamed Barbarian Slave), Xiao Maha and so on were all defeated by his subordinates.

This time, the Sui Dynasty raised troops to destroy Chen, and Han Baohu and He Ruobi, the governors of Lujiang, were the two sharp knives aimed at Jiankang. And the relationship between these two people has always been mediocre, Han Baohu has been in Lujiang for longer than He Ruobi, and it is impossible to give up this great achievement of destroying the country.

So in this way, Han Baohu, as a friendly army, compared to Chen Jun on the other side, still gives He Ruobi a headache.

Wang Huaqiang glanced at his two brooding brothers, and smiled slightly: "So in order to allow Wang Shiji, who is also an old qualification, to block Han Baohu and let himself take the great work of breaking the country and capturing the king, I am afraid that He Ruobi will agree to Wang Shiji's request and let him cross the river first." I'm afraid that Wang Shiji has already found us here at this time. ”

Wang Huashi was about to speak, but he heard Wang Shiji's rough and majestic voice outside: "Brother Wang can be here?" ”

Wang Huashi and Wang Huawei's faces changed greatly at the same time, only Wang Huaqiang was still calm and calm, drank another bowl of water, and then got up, patted the dust on his body, and strode out of the tent, Wang Huashi and Wang Huawei glanced at each other, followed behind him, and also walked out together.

I saw Wang Shiji standing outside the tent with more than 20 guards in bright armor, with an iron tower-like figure with bright armor and red robes, and he was not angry and arrogant.

The red-faced and black-bearded guard who came with him last time also wore a suit of armor this time, standing behind Wang Shiji, this person was even taller than Wang Shiji, as strong as a bear, with a beard like grass, and a fierce face, but behind Wang Shiji, he was as obedient as a sheep at this time, and he didn't dare to raise his head.

When Wang Shiji saw Wang Huaqiang, he smiled: "Brother Xian, don't come to Wuqiang?" ”

Wang Huaqiang returned a military salute and said lightly: "Hello General Wang, in the barracks, please forgive me for not talking about family affairs." I don't know what General Wang ordered when he came here thousands of miles away? ”

A trace of unhappiness flashed on Wang Shiji's face, and then a smile came to his face: "Although you and I have high military ranks, you are not my subordinate now, so there is no need to be so restrained, this time I came to talk about family affection with your brothers." ”

After Wang Shiji finished speaking, he ordered in a deep voice to the guards behind him: "It's all guarded, no one is allowed to enter within fifty steps." ”

The guards led by the strong man shouted yes in unison, quickly dispersed, and set up a line of guards facing outward. And Wang Shiji went directly into the tent.

Wang Huaqiang knew it in his heart, and quickly thought of some ways to deal with it in his mind, bowed his head and said to Wang Huawei: "Go and invite Brother Jingyan to come." ”

Wang Huawei understood and left in a hurry, while Wang Huaqiang walked into the tent with Wang Huashi, only to find that Wang Shiji had already sat cross-legged on the ground, took off his helmet, and drank water with the bowl that Wang Huaqiang had just used.

Wang Huaqiang smiled slightly: "General Wang, I used this bowl just now, let's change it for you." ”

Wang Shiji waved his hand: "No need, we are all soldiers, don't be so particular, I often eat with the soldiers one pot after another, besides, we are relatives and brothers." ”

Wang Huaqiang nodded, sat down opposite Wang Shiji, looked at Wang Shiji, and said, "General Wang should have nothing to do today, I don't know what our brother can do for you?" ”

Wang Shiji laughed: "Happy, I just like your character." Hua Qiang, today we don't want to distinguish between the high and low positions in the army, just talk about the friendship of our Wang family, okay? ”

Wang Huaqiang sneered in his heart, obviously he wanted to use himself, and he had to find such a high-sounding excuse, but he still put on a surprised expression on his face, and said: "It's rare for my cousin to bother so much, to be honest, the big war is coming, this is the first time our brother has really gone to the battlefield, and I am also very panicked in my heart, with you here, we will feel much more at ease." ”

Wang Shiji glanced at Wang Huaqiang and sighed: "No wonder you are flustered, the people you are with this time are not very good, General He doesn't seem to be very interesting to you." I've seen the food he allocates to you, and you won't necessarily eat it when you feed the pigs, so I've made a special argument with him about this today. ”

When Wang Huaqiang heard him say this, he strengthened his judgment in his heart, Wang Shiji must have wanted to collect his smuggling detachment this time and use it for his use.

So Wang Huaqiang also sighed: "The little brother is also puzzled by this, when we came here, General He was very cold to us, and we have only met twice in a few months, and I don't know where to offend him."

Cousin, you are a general of the imperial court, can you help me plead with General He, and ask him to raise his noble hand and let us go for the sake of serving the imperial court? ”

Wang Shiji stepped forward, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously, "Do you know where you offended General He, brother Xian?" ”

Wang Huaqiang pretended to be at a loss and shook his head: "How does the little brother know, it's too late for him to stammer, after he came, he followed Brother Jing Yan to the riverside every day to investigate, even if the news of the people from Jiangnan never dared to hide it from him, he didn't do anything wrong." ”

Wang Shiji shook his head: "You guys, the more you do, the more unhappy he becomes. General He is the general of this southern expedition in the direction of Jiankang, how can he be willing to give up this great achievement of breaking through the enemy capital? Even the King of Jin gave him a hard stand and refused to let him enter Guangling City, not to mention your smuggling team. ”

Wang Huaqiang's face made an expression of sudden realization, and he slapped his thigh fiercely: "Oh, it turns out that this is the case, Brother Jing Yan is this messenger who directly wrote to the emperor, no wonder General He is unhappy."

But we can't stop doing things because he's not happy. Brother Jing Yan also patted his chest in front of the emperor, if he did nothing, it would be a crime of bullying the king. By the way, cousin, how do you know about the tasks that our people are tending? ”

Wang Shiji smiled slightly: "The hatred between Wang Jingyan and the Chen Dynasty is well known, this time he recruited hundreds of strong men directly after he faced the saint, isn't it clear what he wants to do?" And the three of you brothers deliberately angered me like that last time, I'm afraid that you also want to refuse my solicitation, and follow this king to make better contributions. ”

Wang Huaqiang smiled embarrassedly: "Cousin, how do you know this, you also know what your father means, I think that we can make contributions this time, there are too many capable people in your shogunate, we are afraid that we will not be able to get ahead, so we ......"

Wang Shiji waved his hand to stop Wang Huaqiang from continuing: "Okay, this matter is over, no need to say more, if I am angry with you about this matter, I will not come to you today."

In fact, General He is also in a dilemma now, and the defense of the Chen Dynasty on the river is also very tight, if he wants to force the crossing, it is impossible to succeed with the more than 100,000 northern soldiers who are not accustomed to water warfare and have no large warships, and the only chance is to smuggle in. ”
