Chapter 152: Commanding the Army
Just when Shao Shan returned to Tanzhou City with the army, the remnants of the Northern Yan Army on the other side also fled back to the Northern Yan camp, which caused a commotion.
In the past, there were constant conflicts between Daliang and Beiyan, and mutual attacks occurred from time to time.
But this time the situation is different, because this time the general of the Northern Yan army is the general of Shence Tuoba Hao, with the identity and status of Tuoba Hao, under the personal command of the troops, if he can't achieve brilliant results, it is tantamount to a joke, and it does not match his status.
You must know that above the court of Beiyan, it is also divided into many factions, and now that the prince of Beiyan has not been established, many princes are naturally eyeing each other, and all major powerful families are choosing camps one after another, and the Tuoba family is naturally no exception, they support the seven princes of Beiyan.
The factions are different, and they naturally squeeze out and suppress each other, if Tuoba Hao puts up such a big battle this time, but can't achieve results, this will undoubtedly give the opponents a chance to hit him.
Therefore, in this case, even Tuoba Hao had to be careful, fortunately, the first battle of the Northern Yan army went well, and Tuoba Hao relied on a small strategy to severely damage the commander of Qi who was guarding Tanzhou, which made the whole army excited.
And the next situation was not out of Tuoba Hao's expectations, Tanzhou City was leaderless, and the Shangyang army retreated into the city, not daring to fight, so the Northern Yan army dared to send a small team of 1,000 people to call the battle so arrogantly, firstly, to find out the truth of the Shangyang army, and secondly, to hit the morale of the Shangyang army.
Everything went well, but today's events were beyond Tuoba Hao's expectations, and the news he heard from the mouths of these remnants shocked him even more, one person picked four generals in a row, and then rode a hard team of thousands alone, all of which made him feel that things were unusual, and the mysterious person who suddenly appeared must be a martial arts master like himself.
It's just that Tuoba Hao got too few clues, and in desperation, he decided to personally lead the army to call the battle tomorrow to find out.
And in Tanzhou City, after Shao Shan returned, he directly summoned all the generals of the Shangyang Army together, and in the combat command room, Shao Shan sat unceremoniously on the main seat, and his solemn eyes continued to scan the generals below, taking all their expressions into his eyes.
And after a while, Shao Shan also had a judgment in his heart, and the attitude of the generals present towards him can be roughly divided into three types, first, some young generals at the grassroots level have a kind of reverence and fanaticism towards Shao Shan; The second type, looking at Shao Shan, his eyes flickered, most of them are upper-level generals who have always been pampered, and now Shao Shan is coming strongly, it is obviously not a good thing for them, they are constantly weighing all kinds of pros and cons in their hearts, and the third kind is the expressionless Chengfu deep generation, and will never show their inner thoughts on their faces.
At a certain moment, Zhao Hai walked in with a sword in his hand, nodded secretly at Shao Shan, and signaled that everything had been arranged, and a hundred forbidden soldiers were already guarding around this war room.
"Ahem......" Shao Shan cleared his throat and focused everyone's eyes, "Believe my origin, everyone already knows it in their hearts!" ”
"Clear, clear!"
"Your Excellency is an inspector personally appointed by the emperor!"
Shao Shan nodded slightly, and said lightly: "Then, presumably everyone knows the intention of this general!" ”
"Understood!" "Understood!" Many generals replied one after another, and many of them looked at each other with some humility.
The north has not been peaceful in recent years, although there is no major crisis, but the big and small wars have never been interrupted, and many of the many generals here are constantly asking the court for merit and rewards in the process, step by step to sit in a high position, in addition, the court will allocate sufficient money and food every year, but I am afraid that many people are not clean in their hands.
If everything is peaceful in the north, then naturally there is nothing to say, even the inspection envoys appointed by the emperor can't do anything with them, but the problem is that there are major problems in the north at this juncture, which undoubtedly gives the inspection envoys a breakthrough.
Shao Shan's eyes were like lightning, and he glanced at the many generals: "Then who will explain to the general why Tanzhou City is in the current situation?" ”
"This ......" Many generals kept glancing at each other, but no one stood up to speak.
"Is that hard to explain? Is it the Northern Yan army that is too strong or is it incompetent? Shao Shan's words were not polite.
"My lord, you can't say that, on the battlefield, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, we have guarded the northern border for so many years, and we have a clear conscience, but now it's just a defeat, what's the big deal!" A big man stood up and retorted with his neck crossed.
"Oh, do you think so!" Shao Shan glanced at the big man, stood up and walked into the hall, looking around, "Do you think so too?" ”
"My lord, General Chen is like this, his temperament is a little straighter, he has always said one thing, he has no other meaning!" A white-faced general stood up and said in a strange manner, but the meaning of his words was unmistakable.
Although the position of the patrol envoy is big and big, and it is small and small, although the patrol envoy represents the emperor, but after all, this is the northern border, and it is the territory they have been operating for many years, although Shao Shan's identity is very bluffing, but not all generals will buy it, maybe in their opinion, Shao Shan can't do anything to them.
Shao Shan glanced at this person, then looked at a few figures who were about to move, and shouted: "Who else is not convinced, stand up for Ben General!" ”
Some thoughtful people faintly sensed that something was wrong, and the most important thing was that they didn't know the temperament of this inspector, and they hadn't been in contact with it beforehand, so they really couldn't figure out Shao Shan's thoughts, so everyone chose to wait and see.
Shao Shan looked around disdainfully, and he was very clear about everyone's thoughts, but these people were not too stupid, and they didn't jump out directly at this time, but the two who jumped out were not so lucky.
Shao Shan looked at the two of them coldly, and said disdainfully: "The general of the defeated army, not only does he not have the slightest shame and repentance, but he also dares to speak out in front of the general, saying that he has a clear conscience, and he will want to know who gave you the courage!" ”
"You...... I ......"
"What you are, what I am!" Shao Shan interrupted the conversation and gave an order directly, "Come on, pull these two shameless people down, let them sober up, so as not to say anything that makes people laugh!" ”
"Yes, sir!" The four soldiers of the forbidden army ran in quickly, and they were about to pull out the two who jumped out.
The sudden change shocked all the generals present, they didn't expect Shao Shan to dare to take action directly, and repeatedly admonished: "Think twice, adults!" ”
"My lord, the two generals don't mean anything else!"
The two people who were arrested were even more unconvinced, shouting: "Why are you arresting people, and what right do you have to arrest us?" ”
Shao Shan glanced at the two of them coldly: "Why, just because I am the northern patrol envoy appointed by the emperor, you are derelict in your duties on the battlefield, causing hundreds of thousands of people in the north to be in danger, the crime is unforgivable, and you are still talking about it with a clear conscience, do you think that the general really does not dare to kill you?" ”
"We are officials canonized by the imperial court, and you have no right to dispose of me at all!"
"Hmph, if Commander Qi said this, I might have to think about it, but what about you two......" A sneer of disdain appeared at the corner of Shao Shan's mouth, "I don't even have the qualifications to question the general!" ”
"As for whether you have a clear conscience as you say, Ben will find out clearly, and Ben will give you a chance to argue at that time, but in front of the emperor!" Shao Shan said coldly, then waved his hand casually, and commanded loudly, "Take it down!" ”
"Yes, sir!"
"I don't accept it, I don't accept it......" The voice gradually faded away, but it frightened everyone in the hall, especially the forbidden army soldiers around them, and they didn't dare to doubt Shao Shan's determination at all.
Shao Shan returned to the main throne and looked at everyone's performance coldly: "Ben will not care what kind of state you were in before, but now give me some restraint, the enemy is current, Ben will not mind nucking any unfavorable factors in the bud!" ”
"The last general will not dare!" The generals hurriedly got up and agreed.
In extraordinary times, in order to integrate the Shangyang Army as quickly as possible, Shao Shan does not mind killing chickens and monkeys, and he is not afraid of these people rebounding, this entire Shangyang Army is not monolithic, at least when he disposed of the two just now, some young generals had a faint feeling on their faces, unless Commander Qi wakes up now, otherwise, no one can really turn over the big waves.
"Now that Commander Qi is in a coma, all the military affairs of the Shangyang Army will be taken over by this general, who is not convinced, stand up!" Shao Shan said in a deep voice.
"The last general and others will obey the orders of the lord's army!" Although there are many people who are unwilling, but no one dares to jump out at this time, the most important thing is that Shao Shan's actions during the day have completely conquered the soldiers in the Shangyang army, which also saves him a lot of trouble for controlling the whole army, even if someone jumps out against Shao Shan now, there may not be many people responding.
Of course, there is another reason for this, today's Tanzhou City is in crisis, and the position of commander is a hot potato, it can be said that the security of the entire northern border is completely on his shoulders, and everyone is good if he wins, but once he is defeated, the person in command is the sinner of the entire Liang, and there is absolutely no good fruit to eat, and now Shao Shan is in charge of the whole army, which is undoubtedly the best choice.
"Good!" Shao Shan nodded with satisfaction, "Now the military situation is urgent, and Tuoba Hao will definitely come to call the battle in person tomorrow, so now everyone immediately go down to reorganize the army, and anyone who slacks off will be punished for disobeying the military order!" ”
"Yes, General!"
