Chapter 334: The Deal Is Done

Wang Shichong heard Shi Wansui say these words, and it was useless to persuade him, General Shi's purpose in the war was not only to be promoted, but also to make a fortune, without the drive of these money, he could not let his proud soldiers and fierce generals exert their strong combat effectiveness under difficult marching conditions.

So Wang Shichong could only retreat and carefully suggested: "General Shi, the lower officials think that what you said is very reasonable, soldiers can only become tigers and wolves after they go to the battlefield under the stimulation of heavy profits, but this time according to the holy decree, 20,000 of the 30,000 army are Shu troops, these people are only afraid that they will not be of the same heart with us, do you want to take them when you see the spoils?" ”

When Shi Wansui heard this, his brows stretched a lot, but his face was still gloomy, and he sighed: "I'm also worried about this matter now, it's just that the 10,000 troops and 20 troops in China will be the ones I am going to divide the money this time, those sergeants in Shu, many of them are people from Yang Xiu, the king of Shu, and it's not our Guanlong line, I don't want to give them any benefits, Wang Yuanwai, you have always been resourceful, but what is the best way?" ”

Wang Shichong had already prepared, "hehe" smiled: "Didn't General Shi say just now, on the way to the south, ensuring logistics is the first thing, and for real combat, there are about 10,000 elites in Guanzhong, so these logistics supply points along the way will let the 20,000 Shu troops disperse and guard, and the generals sent by His Royal Highness the King of Shu will also lead these Shu troops to be responsible for logistics. ”

Shi Wansui's face was overjoyed, and he nodded again and again: "This method is really good, Wang Yuanwai." It's just that only the Shu soldiers are left behind to guard. Wouldn't it be a little too obvious. Will it cause the complaints of His Royal Highness the King of Shu? ”

Wang Shichong's eyes rolled, and he said with a smile: "This matter, it's easy to do, when the time comes, His Royal Highness the King of Shu will definitely send one or two henchmen to lead the pro-army over, you can serve these people well, and share the gold and silver they get, as well as the exploits of capturing the enemy's nest, presumably when these people go back to advise His Royal Highness the King of Shu." I won't report General Shi's behavior to Lu Shang. ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Shi Wansui's mouth, and he patted Wang Shichong's shoulder: "Wang Yuanwai, you are really shrewd, this method is good, I will listen to you." Do you have any other requirements? ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "That's what I mentioned to you just now, transfer these five people over as generals, and Shichong wants to bring more than 1,000 people to the family servants, rest assured, the distribution of these people's military salaries and post-war booty will not cost you much trouble, and I will solve it myself." It's just that Shichong doesn't have the right to open a government. At that time, in what name will this group of people be brought out, and General Shi will have to worry a lot. ”

Shi Wansui waved his hand: "This is no problem." You are the general of the expedition personally ordered by the emperor this time, even if you don't have the right to open the government, at most you just can't recruit staff, there can still be hundreds of personal guards, and the extra people can be assigned to the names of the generals you protect, but you still act in unison with your guards, I will help you cover this matter, you can rest assured. ”

Wang Shichong nodded, and saluted again: "Then there is General Lao Shi, one million and nine hundred thousand money, I need some time to prepare, I will send you hundreds of thousands of dollars in the past few days, and the rest of the money will be sent together when I come back." ”

Shi Wansui smiled: "No need, we are officials in the same dynasty, and this time we will go on an expedition together, this matter is not in a hurry, since you have promised like this, I have nothing to worry about here, and I will have to select other generals in the next few days, and I will also select the troops in the right guard battalion, and I will be busy."

I'll send orders from your five generals there, but I'll have to let them follow the army all the way to report. You can watch and do other things by yourself, and we'll see you in three days, and then I should call you General Wang. ”

Wang Shichong looked solemn, pressed his fist to his chest, performed a standard military salute, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, Marshal Shi." ”

A moment later, Wang Shichong leaned on the guardrail on the third floor, watched with a gloomy face as Shi Wansui triumphantly got back into his car, then lowered the curtain, and headed in the direction of the side gate of the villa under the alert of a dozen guards in civilian clothes who were carrying bows and swords.

The warm spring breeze blew Wang Shichong's beard, and his thoughts were also spinning rapidly, thinking about the next response, the thinking that was fascinating, even An Suiyu, who walked upstairs, stood behind him for a long time, Wang Shichong didn't notice it.

After half an hour like this, Wang Shichong almost sorted out his thoughts, stretched his waist, turned around, and only saw An Suiyu looking at him with a shallow smile, and then smiled: "Ayu, it's really hard for you today, why don't you stand behind me and say hello?" ”

An Suiyu blinked his eyes mischievously: "Xingman, do you know the way?" I like the way you think and concentrate on doing things, you are the most handsome. ”

Wang Shichong's heart moved, he hugged An Suiyu into his arms, kissed him on the forehead, and said with a smile: "I like the way you snuggle up in my arms quietly." You look the most beautiful like this. ”

The smile on An Suiyu's face flashed, and he sighed faintly: "Okay, you've been at home for two years, it's time to go out and make a career, I can guess what happened today, is the imperial court going to war again?" Otherwise, why would a great general like Shi Wansui come to you? ”

Wang Shichong let go of An Suiyu in his arms, held her face, looked directly at her beautiful eyes, and nodded: "Yes, a few days ago, there was a rebellion in Ningzhou in the southwest, and the news reached the capital, and the imperial court was ready to send an army to quell the rebellion, General Shi was the commander of this army, and I was also recommended by the high servant in front of the emperor, and I gave a general, and I will set off in three days, Ayu, it may take more than half a year to go, and the business matters, as well as Xuanying, will trouble you more." ”

An Suiyu was a little surprised, and frowned slightly: "Ningzhou? Is it the place where the great prime minister Zhuge Liang captured the barbarian king Meng Shu during the Three Kingdoms of the Han people? How did you go there this time? After An Suiyu came to the Central Plains, she also made up a lot of history books in addition to doing business, especially when she was pregnant two years ago, she couldn't come out to do business.

Wang Shichong sighed softly: "Yes, this time the imperial court is not ready to send a large army to deal with the rebellion of the Southern Barbarians, only 10,000 troops from Guanzhong, plus 20,000 local soldiers in Shudi, a total of 30,000 people, to quell the rebellion in Ningzhou, the difficulty is not too great, or the distance is long, I am afraid it will take more than half a year to go back and forth." ”

An Suiyu smiled, and a small dimple appeared on the side of his mouth: "Okay, this time you have personally ordered the emperor to be promoted, and there must be a promotion after you come back." ”

Wang Shichong thought of Shi Wansui's words just now, and his expression suddenly became solemn, he sat back on the tiger skin chair, leaned on his back, and his eyes narrowed slightly: "It's hard to say this time, I vaguely feel that Shi Wansui may have an accident this time." ”

When An Suiyu heard this, his face changed suddenly, he took a step forward and grabbed Wang Shichong's hand, his voice trembled: "Something? What's going on? Are you saying that this battle is likely to be lost? ”

Wang Shichong opened his eyes, shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "No, you won't lose on the battlefield, but Shi Wansui sees this battle as a good opportunity to make a fortune, and today he came here to make a deal with me at a clear price. ”

When An Suiyu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Okay, as long as there is no danger in the battle array, then it will be fine."

Besides, after winning the war, let the soldiers go and loot the spoils, isn't it something that every army is doing? In the past, our Turks fought for the purpose of looting, cattle and sheep, population, treasures, and pastures were all the purpose of our war, and in order to let the soldiers fight hard, the looting or distribution of the spoils of war was necessary. It's you, in order to stimulate morale, didn't you also open a position and divide the land? (To be continued......)
