Chapter 769: Alone in the Depths
Everyone in the Haw Par Army knows that the commander of the guard division does not have a high military rank and status in the Haw Par Army. However, relying on the reason of Wei Zheng's henchmen, he has always been very arrogant, as if he was a military commander.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that this guard division commander was so arrogant that he didn't take Wang Feng, the army commander, in his eyes at all.
You must know that according to the military regulations of the Haw Par Army, no matter how much the commander of his guard division is the confidant of the prince, as a military commander who is a whole level higher than him, Wang Feng is his superior no matter where he is, and he must treat Wang Feng as a subordinate.
And in front of him, this arrogant guard division commander has obviously put himself on the same position as Wang Feng to have a dialogue.
In a hierarchical army, the words of the commander of the guard division can definitely be called an insult to Wang Feng.
Therefore, after the commander of the guard division finished speaking, Wang Feng's face became gloomy in an instant.
After taking a deep breath, he asked the commander of the guard division: "Xiang Division, you said very well, as the commander of the guard, you really don't need to listen to my command, and you don't need to give me face...... However, Ben will deal with Huang Taiji for a longer time than you after all, and with Ben Jiang's understanding of Huang Taiji, Huang Taiji will never expose his back to us lightly......"
"Therefore, in the general's opinion, if you pursue the division commander now, not only can you not inflict a heavy blow on Huang Taiji. One is not good, and it may also be a conspiracy of Huang Taiji. After all, Huang Taiji gathered more than 60,000 elite ...... of the Houjin army around him"
"And you only have 10,000 soldiers in your hands...... Even if you add the troops that can be drawn in the hands of this general, it is only about 20,000 people......"
Wang Feng's persuasion not only did not calm down the anger in the heart of the commander of the guard division. Instead, it makes the anger even bigger.
Without thinking about it, he opened his mouth and refused: "Commander Wang, you are scared of Huang Taiji." My guard division did not ...... In Ben's opinion. Huang Taiji and the more than 60,000 elites in his hands, no matter how powerful they are, my guard division can bite off a piece of fat from them, so that Huang Taiji knows the power of my Tiger and Leopard Army......"
Speaking of this, a trace of monstrous confidence from the heart directly appeared on the face of the guard division commander.
Facing Wang Feng and the subordinates beside Wang Feng, he shouted with an arrogant face: "Commander Wang, I decide. immediately led the guard division to chase out of Liaodong, strive to catch up with Huang Taiji, and inflict heavy losses on Huang Taiji...... Even if you can't inflict a heavy blow on Huang Taiji, you have to snatch back all the food and materials looted by Houjin from Liaodong......"
"As for Commander Wang and the generals, they will stay in the Liaodong Governor's Mansion and wait for the good news of our guard division......"
After speaking, the guard division commander left the Liaodong Governor's Mansion with an arrogant face and a high-spirited face......
Looking at the figure of the commander of the guard division who gradually disappeared outside the lobby, the atmosphere was solemn in the lobby of the Governor's Mansion. The cavalry division commander, who was full of anger, finally couldn't help but scold......
"Dog's day. What's so arrogant...... Isn't it just that I fought the imperial court officials and soldiers a few times a year ago? If it weren't for his good background, just with those military exploits, it would be impossible for him to be trusted by the prince and become the commander of the guard division......"
Seeing that the commander of the cavalry division under his command was talking more and more excessively, Wang Feng directly interrupted: "Shut up for me...... I know you are very dissatisfied with this Xiang Divisional Commander...... However, what I want to say is that anyone who is in the position of the prince will arrange the person he trusts the most in the position of the commander of the guard division...... Besides, as the garrison force around the prince, it is difficult for the guard division to encounter battle. The requirements for the command ability of the division commander are not so high......"
"So, for this guard division to the division commander, don't ask too well......"
"As for the arrogance you are talking about, there is no way to do it...... Who let him get involved with the princess so much, if one day, the prince can get to that position, then this Xiang Shichang is a relative of the emperor. Therefore, for this kind of person, we can not offend if we can...... Are you clear, for the sake of your own future, don't gossip about people behind your back......"
Although everyone's hearts were full of dissatisfaction and anger, they still did not hesitate to keep their mouths shut under Wang Feng's admonition......
After all, Wang Feng is all for everyone's good.
Just as the lobby fell silent again, a staff officer burst in.
Before Wang Feng could speak, he reported anxiously: "Commander...... After the Guard Division Xiang Division left the Governor's Palace, he went straight out of the city...... Moreover, the guard division that has just arrived in Liaoyang City is assembling and preparing to send troops to pursue the Tartars......"
"Acting so fast...... It seems that this Xiang Division Commander is not only very arrogant, but also very impulsive...... "If he is still so impulsive in the process of pursuing Huang Taiji, with Huang Taiji's keen approach and means on the battlefield, the guard division will definitely suffer a big loss in the process of pursuit...... Commander, what should we do...... "The commander of an infantry division under Wang Feng asked with a worried face......
As soon as he finished speaking, the cavalry division commander, who was holding back a ball of anger in his heart and had no place to vent, replied with a dissatisfied face: "Since he wants to send the division commander to death, then we will watch ...... Anyway, we stopped it, but he didn't listen......"
"It just so happens that this Xiang division commander also knows that Houjin Tartar is not as easy to deal with as the court officials and soldiers he once dealt with...... If one is not good, you may end up with your own life......"
The words of the cavalry division commander were recognized by many regiment commanders. However, Wang Feng disagreed. Not only did he disagree, but his face was just solemn just now, and after listening to what the cavalry division commander said, he directly became gloomy.
Then, facing the commander of the cavalry division, he directly scolded: "Shut up...... Shut it all up...... Have you forgotten who you are, and have you forgotten the Haw Par Army's military regulations......"
"You are dissatisfied with the guard division to the division commander, you can mention it. If you have the guts, you can directly find him, scold him, or even beat him. However, this dissatisfaction must not be transferred to the tens of thousands of officers and men of the guard division......"
"If more than 10,000 soldiers of the guard division are wiped out because we don't care about it, how many heads do you have that you can use to be in charge......"
"Pass my order, the cavalry division, the guard regiment, immediately assemble...... After the departure of the Guards Division, they followed the Cavalry Division fifty miles behind the Tartars in pursuit, and at any time reinforced the Guards Division that might be attacked......"
The arrival of the guard division, although it forced Huang Taiji to end this raid immediately, quickly withdrew from Liaodong with the harvest, returned to Houjin, and drilled into the mountains.
Of course, retreat is retreat, and Huang Taiji, who is on the battlefield, will certainly not ignore the attacks that may come from behind.
When the main force escorted food and supplies and rushed to the destination as quickly as possible. More than 20,000 Tartars, carrying a huge number of grenades, are quietly lurking in the path of the Haw Par Army's pursuers, waiting for the arrival of their prey...... (To be continued......)
