261 parted ways

"Brother Dong, I don't know what to do with my junior brother?" Lu Haoshan came to the makeshift tent and asked with a smile.

"Don't worry, come, drink tea first" Dong Jian tasted tea and motioned to Lu Haoshan to drink tea first.

After a few words of greeting, Dong Jian asked casually, "Brother Lu, where are we now?" ”

Isn't this nonsense, who doesn't know that now that he has stepped into the boundary of Shanxi, he is simply asking knowingly, but when the boss asks, Lu Haoshan has no choice, so he has to respond with a smile: "If you go back to the eldest brother, we have passed the Fengling Pass and are now entering the territory of Pingyang Mansion in Shanxi Province." ”

Dong Jian nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yes, they have all entered Pingyang Mansion, these days are really fast, there is Brother Lao Lu these days." ”

Of course, your life is happy, tasting good tea, eating pastries, hugging beauties, drinking wine as a song every day, waking up drunk, the journey has gone a long way, but it is difficult for Lu Haoshan to run in the rain and snow, the cold wind blows, the face is blue and purple from the cold, not to mention how depressed, from time to time I have to find some food for him, although the commander makes the adult not look very good, but the mouth is very tricky, things like to eat fresh, sometimes the river is frozen in winter, and let the soldiers dig ice to catch live fish, not to accept him is not good, After hearing this young master sighing that time was passing quickly, Lu Haoshan didn't know what to say.

"Don't dare, this is what the little brother should do."

"Brother Lu, let me ask you, what is the most important thing about marching and fighting?" Dong Jian suddenly asked in a startling voice.

Will this gentleman still discuss these advanced questions with himself? Lu Haoshan was asked by him for a moment, but quickly said: "It should be the enemy's first opportunity, doesn't Sun Tzu's Art of War say that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles?" ”

"Hahaha, wrong."

"Wrong?" Lu Haoshan was a little surprised, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "I also want to ask Brother Dong for some advice." ”

Dong Jian said with a straight face: "It's grain and grass, the soldiers can't eat enough to eat when they march and fight." How to go to war, it is said that the three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and the army will be chaotic if there is no food for three days, which can be seen from the importance of grain and grass, Brother Lu, are you right? ”

"Yes, that's true." Lu Haoshan patted Dong Jian's ass with a clear conscience and said, "Brother Dong's words can be said to be insightful. ”

"Hahaha, Brother Lu still understands me" Dong Jian patted Lu Haoshan's shoulder and said, "That's it." In the future, Brother Lu, you will be responsible for logistics and support, I will trust you with so many people, this official will charge in front, you are in the back hall, you and I will join forces, it will definitely be invincible. ”

This is a nice thing to say, Lu Haoshan knows that the eldest young master of the Dong family in front of him wants to take credit and stand alone, and Lu Haoshan can vaguely guess it. Dong Jian wanted to prove himself.

Lu Haoshan's flying electric battalion in Sichuan, which was completely annihilated without mud, can be said to have become famous in the first battle, and he is famous in Sichuan's capital system, and the current commander Han Wendeng admires Lu Haoshan very much. Everyone knows this, before leaving, out of good intentions, Han Wendeng will definitely persuade Dong Jian to listen to Lu Haoshan's guidance and cooperate or something. These are good intentions, but he may not be able to listen to them as a gentleman, and sometimes he makes a rebellious mentality: the more you are like him. He wants to do the opposite of you.

He wants to prove that he can do it without the help of others.

Think about it, there is also this possibility, Sichuan has less war, Guangyuan has Chaotian Pass in front of Guangyuan, and there is Jianmen Pass in the back, under the protection of the two passes, it is difficult to have any tests, like not sticking to the mud, although Sichuan is stirred into a pot of porridge, but he is all touching away, he does not dare to fight at all, or he is looking for a place where the troops are empty, and he never dares to fight head-on, and the battle of Qinglinkou, which has the greatest impact, is also the result of a sneak attack, so that Dong Jian is not necessarily afraid of these peasant rebels, and the most important point, from Sichuan to Shanxi, The vanguard encountered a few bandits who were hungry and crazy, and the officers and soldiers also wanted to "borrow food", and in the end, they all defeated Lu Haoshan, and Dong Jian also made a small contribution.

The process of meritorious service is a bit of a coincidence, that is, someone suddenly blocked the road on the way, saying that the village not far away was being attacked by hundreds of mobs, and asked the officers and soldiers to save people, that day Dong Jian led hundreds of people to fight the mob on a whim, in fact, it was not a mob, it should be said that it was a hungry people, where are they the opponents of these elite soldiers, and more than 20 people were beheaded and fled, Dong Jian reported the matter to Han Wendeng's commendation, thinking that this is conducive to promoting the military prestige of Sichuan and promoting the unity of the army and the people, so he gave him a credit.

They are all their own people, and they naturally have to push when they have the opportunity.

Perhaps it was this "victory" that made Dong Jian, who was originally a little timid, suddenly change his concept, became bold, ready to grab credit, prepared to show himself, and threw Lu Haoshan in logistics, to show that he could make great achievements without Lu Haoshan's help.

Dong Jian's little abacus, Lu Haoshan guessed that eight or nine were not far from ten, Lu Haoshan said with some embarrassment: "Brother Dong's words, the younger brother originally wanted to listen, but the commander said to the adult, let me and others work together to advance and retreat together, if we are separated, I am afraid, I am afraid that it is not good." ”

As soon as he heard Han Wendeng, Dong Jian's face became even more stubborn, and his face tightened and continued: "Ben will play the striker, you will be the logistics, this is also a common advance and retreat, Brother Lu, don't worry, that credit is indispensable to yours." ”

Since Lu Haoshan was afraid that he would have no credit, Dong Jian said generously.

Lu Haoshan didn't covet that little credit, he was mainly afraid that it would be difficult to give an errand to Han Wendeng, and he said with some embarrassment: "Brother Dong, it's not a matter of merit, it's mainly Commander Han's envoy."

"That's it, the commander has me to say, Brother Lu, you can rest assured, now I am the main general, you are the deputy, naturally you have to listen to my orders, if there is anything at that time, just push it on me." Dong Jian said very simply.

"Yes, then the subordinate will follow the instructions of the lord." Lu Haoshan had no choice but to respond.

When it comes to this, I can't even agree if I want to.

So, Lu Haoshan and Dong Jian officially separated, and Dong Jian, who wanted to prove himself, ignored Lu Haoshan's "good intentions" and let Lu Haoshan, together with his eight hundred men and horses, be used as logistics and support, while he took two thousand and two elite soldiers and the Jingwei lent to him by Han Wendeng, and rushed to the front line.

Lu Haoshan's people, he doesn't use any of them, and he obviously has a vindictive element.

Of course, Lu Haoshan is also willing to accept this reality.

Early the next morning, anxious to prove himself, Dong Jian led the men and horses to leave, and Lu Haoshan took eight hundred people and horses from the headquarters to the palace.

"My lord, this surnamed Dong crossed the river and demolished the bridge, they grabbed the merit in the front, let us in the back, said that it was a support, nine times out of ten they were afraid that we would steal his limelight, it was really hateful." Sun Xiong's temperament was a little straight, and when he saw that Dong Jian and the others had gone away, and the rest were all his own people, he couldn't help but say with a distracted face.

In his opinion, his own adults are busy along the way, doing cattle and horses, while Dong Jian is the shopkeeper who doesn't pay attention to anything, hiding in the carriage and playing with women all day long, which is not fair at all.

Lu Haoshan was very optimistic, smiled and comforted him: "Commander Dong is the main general, I am the deputy, it is very appropriate to do more, he does not take credit, second, he does not push us into the fire pit, and third, he does not deliberately frame us, how can he say that the river will tear down the bridge?" ”

Li Dingguo said with some worry: "My lord, now the imperial court has laid a heavy army, and a big net has been laid here in Shanxi, taking the Yellow River as a natural danger, gradually shrinking, this time the transfer is all elite soldiers, it is obvious that those people are all wiped out, my lord, now there are more monks and less porridge, if you go late, I am afraid that you will not be able to drink the soup." ”

Although Zhao Gongchang is said to be a close guard, Lu Haoshan has no shelf, as long as the people around him have a plan, they can bring it up, and when he heard this, he gritted his teeth and said: "My lord, the general will be outside, the monarch's order is not subject to it, we can also attack to grab the credit, with the ability of our intelligence team and the ability to quickly transmit information, we will definitely make a difference, maybe we can pick up a lot of cheap." ”

"That's right" Tang Qiang, who rarely spoke, also echoed: "My lord, the opportunity is right in front of you, and you can't miss it." ”

Some people said that Dong Jian had no one in his eyes and did not pay attention to righteousness, some people said that he was dispatched, maybe the results of the battle would be greater, and some people mentioned that he was following behind, waiting for the opportunity to grab merit, etc., all of them were very eager to persuade Lu Haoshan to do his best, otherwise he would come in vain.

Lu Haoshan listened, and did not speak on the surface, but he laughed secretly in his heart: a general is incompetent, killing the three armies, he doesn't mind Dong Jian grabbing credit, but he is very afraid that he will command indiscriminately on the battlefield, the previous strength, nine times out of ten, want his subordinates to be cannon fodder, after all, no one wants his subordinates to be too strong to be difficult to clamp, Dong Jian said that he wanted to divide the troops, Lu Haoshan refused to do so, it was just to show Han Wendeng's people, and if something happened then, he could also stay out of it.

Everyone thought that those mobs were vulnerable, and this expedition was to grab people's heads, earn military merits, and fight for positions, in fact, after several years of struggle, those peasant rebels have grown, especially the addition of those Qinwang soldiers, so that their strength has been qualitatively improved, and like Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng and others, which is an easy role to deal with? Everyone thought that they could exterminate these people lightly this time, but in fact they were very wrong. ”

If Daming's qi is not exhausted, then the luck of these "mobs" is still there, unless, Lu Haoshan has the status of Hong Chengchou or Cao Wenzhao, or Lu Haoshan is the kind of loyal giant, but unfortunately, Lu Haoshan is just a speculator, a speculator who wants to change the status quo, and he has long been dissatisfied with the corrupt and fallen status quo of Daming.

Seeing that everyone was almost discussed, Lu Haoshan waved his hand and said: "Okay, since this matter has been decided, we still follow the orders of Commander Dong and do a good job in logistics, and there is no need to discuss the rest, so as not to spread gossip and affect the relationship between this official and Commander Dong." ”

Others are worried, but Lu Haoshan is not worried at all, because he feels that the best is yet to come. (To be continued......)
