Chapter 470: Appointment!
Yingzhou City belongs to the territory of Jizhou, located in the east of Yanyun, and is barely a "border pass" small city. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But it is such a small city, but now it has become a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden.
The reason is very simple, this is now the base camp of Chao Gai, the governor of Zhendong and the king of Tota, under the command of Wu Zhi, the king of Northern Yan.
The generals of the Liangshan family, except for those who went out to lead the troops on business, gathered in Yingzhou City on weekdays, drinking and having fun.
If the other commanders saw the generals below getting together all day long, they would be very jealous of what they were plotting, but Wu Da didn't care, since he had even sealed the five major governors, would he still be taboo about these?
What's more, today's Yanyun main force, in fact, except for Tong Ying's 100,000 Northwest Frontier Army, which is considered a "professional background" and is a real soldier, the rest of the major forces are regarded as "grass platform teams", all of them are born in the rivers and lakes and are reckless, and they are used to being free and casual, and the five major governors can perform their duties and press them in the army, and they do not act arbitrarily when they go out on business, which is not easy, if they are not allowed to drink and have fun together in their leisure time, it will really drive them crazy.
However, today, none of the generals of the Liangshan family had the leisure to go out to have fun, and all the generals in the city came to Chaogai's mansion.
Because...... Wuda is here.
"See the prince!"
Wu Da dressed in disguise, came lightly, many generals including Chao Gai did not go out of the house to greet them, at this time Wu Da walked into the hall, and everyone hurriedly saluted.
"Okay, you and I are our own brothers, and there are no outsiders here, get up and sit down!" Wu Da personally helped Chao Gai up and said with a smile.
Everyone got up happily, and Wuda discovered some abnormalities.
In the past, Chao Gai was a burly, majestic bearded man, but this time when they met again, Wu Da found that he had lost a lot of weight, and he seemed to be a little out of spirit.
However, in front of everyone, Wu Da remained silent.
After a little greeting, Chao Gai knew that with the current identity of Wuda, he suddenly came to the small city of Yingzhou, and there must be something important to discuss, so he got straight to the point: "A few days ago, I suddenly received a secret message, saying that the prince was going to come to Yingzhou, I don't know what the prince is about?" ”
Wu Da glanced around, pondered for a moment, and said bluntly: "I don't know how many people and horses can be called at any time in the entire Zhendong Army now?" ”
Chao Gai was shocked, and after thinking carefully for a long time, he replied: "At most 50,000 horses." ”
Wu Da was slightly stunned, glanced at Chao Gai suspiciously, Chao Gai smiled bitterly, and said truthfully: "Lord Wang, our Liangshan people and horses are extremely scattered, and a large number of people and horses are in the Four Seas Dart Bureau, however, although the Four Seas Dart Bureau is now criss-crossed, but because the Great Song Dynasty and our Yanyun are a little bit disagreeable, and they are often looking for trouble, so after the situation in Yanyun is slightly stabilized, Ximen Qing ordered that almost all the elite personnel originally drawn from the Four Seas Dart Bureau were sent back to the Dart Bureau, one of them; Second, now all the state capitals in our Yanyun territory are making every effort to build major workshops, and there are not enough manpower, so many sons and daughters in our army have to take turns to help; Third, Hunjiang Dragon Li Jun, that bastard, took the warrant of the prince and transferred 10,000 elites from me; Then there are the major battalions such as the Linzi Battalion, the Huozi Battalion, the Shanzi Battalion and the Qingyan Battalion, and now the elite is drawn from the entire Yanyun Army, and there are not many people under my command who can be used. I don't need to hide it from the prince, as far as the 50,000 horses I just said, at most 20,000 have the strength to fight, and most of the rest are government soldiers and the latest recruits. ”
Wu Da rubbed his head and said with a headache: "No wonder I see that you are a little unlucky, it seems that things are indeed a little tricky." ”
This is inevitable, recruits and veterans are two completely different concepts, not only combat effectiveness, but also military morale, are completely different, and they need to be polished for a long time to work.
Chao Gai sighed and poured bitter water, "I used to live in a remote corner of Liangshan, and I was still at ease, but now I look at the world and speak from my heart, I am a little powerless......"
"One fence with three piles, one hero with three gangs, there is no shortage of generals under your Chao Tianwang, why are you forced to lose so much weight?"
Wu Da didn't say this and said, as soon as he mentioned it, Chao Gai was a little angry, glared at Wu Da with some annoyance, and said: "Lord Wang, you have an order to transfer Gongsun Daochang to serve as the assassin, and now I have a group of rough men in my hands, let them go into battle to kill the enemy, let them help me deal with military affairs?" You might as well take their heads off! ”
The generals of the Liangshan family on both sides were a little embarrassed, and Wuda also laughed and said: "Now we Yanyun are in ruins, and there are indeed many difficulties, but this is only temporary, there is no way, we lack talents in our hands, and there is no trivial matter in the army, and I dare not arrange it in the army. ”
Chao Gai ...... Silent aperture.
After a moment of silence, Wu Da clapped his hands and said with a smile: "What are you doing in frustration?" Do you feel like you're a little useless? Don't worry, you and I are brothers, although I am now pushed to the position of the king of Northern Yan by my brothers, but I Wuzhi will never be able to cross the river and tear down the bridge, not to mention, big fists are the last word, Yanyun still needs brothers to guard after all, you are gone, what should I do as the king of Northern Yan? It's almost the same to drink the northwest wind! ”
"Hahaha......"
Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief, and finally had some smiles.
In fact, Wu Da felt it when he first came, maybe because his identity is different now, and he has great power, so the brothers are inevitably estranged from him, not as casual as before.
This is something that can't be helped, Wuda is not an immortal, and he can only try to make up for it, and he can't do everything in detail.
After that, Wu Da's face was solemn, and he said:
"The Governor of Zhendong is listening!"
Chao Gai and all the generals in the house stood up and saluted,
"The last general!"
"Order, recall all the soldiers who returned to the Four Seas Dart Bureau, and mobilize 30,000 horses, including 20,000 veterans and 10,000 recruits, ready to go, waiting for the military order!"
"The last general commands!"
Wu Da got up and said: "I still have important things to do today, so I won't drink with the brothers here, and I will wait for the Qingyan Camp and other major battalions to arrive another day, and after the convergence, I will come to Yingzhou again." ”
Chao Gai personally sent Wuda out of the city secretly, and asked in a low voice:
"Lord Wang, look at this posture, is it about to go to war? With whom? Great Song or Great Liao? ”
Wu Da patted him on the shoulder and laughed: "King Chao, I want to destroy the gold thief, are you willing to go with me?" ”
After that, Wuda turned over and got on his horse and left.
Only Chao Gai was left, his face full of shock.
