Chapter Eighty-Six: The Problem of Selling Horses

Han Wenzhi has never fought side by side with Wen Han, and after everyone came to Tong'an Town together, Wen Han has been running outside with some people, except for meeting a few times, the two have not worked together in depth, in Han Wenzhi's mind, Wen Han himself is from Weizhou, and only he came out of Guo Wei's hands, and Wen Han's reaction was the most intense after hearing about this just now. If there is anyone who is most likely to tell Guo Wei, it is most likely Wen Han.

Although deep down in Han Wenzhi's heart, he felt that there was nothing wrong with Wen Han really telling Guo Wei about this matter, but this matter was too big, so big that if Guo Wei seriously pursued it, Qin Zhen, the captain, could not afford it, if Qin Zhen was finished, then Tong'an Town, which they had worked so far, would also be finished.

Wen Han slapped the table, pointed at Han Wenzhi on the opposite side and shouted, "What do you mean, you mean I will tell the truth?" Let me tell you, I am upright and clear if I want to oppose it, and I will never do that villainous act......"

Wen Han was about to continue, and suddenly saw Han Ruoyun next to Han Wenzhi looking at him, so he swallowed the words behind him, sat back in the chair, sulking, Meng Xuan patted him on the shoulder, signaling him not to be excited.

Han Wenzhi explained with some embarrassment: "Vice Team Wen, I'm not targeting you, this matter is indeed too big, if Guo Duwei knows, none of us can afford it, I just think that since this incident didn't happen, we still have a chance to remedy it, and there is no need to let Guo Duwei know......"

Han Wenzhi found that it was okay if he didn't explain, this explanation was even more chaotic, isn't this still aimed at Wen Han, looking at Wen Han's darkening face opposite, Han Wenzhi didn't know how to continue, and the atmosphere at the scene became even more embarrassing.

Qin Zhen said with a smile: "I have been fighting side by side with Wen Han for so long, I know that you have always been calm, but I don't want to be able to see your Wen Han's excited side today, so I rushed to this point, and this matter was not in vain." ”

Qin Zhen's half-joking words broke the embarrassment on the field, everyone laughed, and the atmosphere of the scene became relaxed and active again.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased down, Qin Zhen gently knocked on the table of the Eight Immortals in front of him: "Don't go astray, the topic of today's discussion is that we are going to sell a war horse to supplement our financial resources in Tong'an Town, how did you flicker and run to the section of telling Guo Duwei, we are the sergeants of the Flying Eagle Regiment of Zhichong Mansion in Weizhou, not bandits in the mountains and forests, where did the whistleblower come from, I called everyone together to discuss the matter, which also shows that I believe in everyone here, I asked everyone to keep it a secret for the time being because we still have a firm foothold in Tong'an Town, and everyone's trust in us is still not enough, and this matter may cause unnecessary trouble, and it is impossible for us to explain it to them one by one, not to mention that even if we explain, they may not necessarily believe it, or the fastest spreading rumors in this world are rumors. As for Guo Duwei, I didn't want to hide it from him, and when we reach a consensus and have a result, I will explain it to Guo Duwei in person. ”

Han Wenzhi stroked his beard, shook his head and said: "I think that no matter what the outcome of this matter is, we can't tell Guo Duwei, to say something heart-wrenching, if we don't say it, even if Guo Duwei hears some rumors in the future, with Guo Duwei's appreciation of the captain, you can just ignore it and let this matter go, but if the captain tells Guo Duwei clearly, Guo Duwei will have no way out, and it is likely that the adult will be dealt with by military law." ”

Qin Zhen waved his hand: "Don't tell Guo Duwei first, I'll talk about the idea of selling horses this time, let's hear if it makes sense, and then we will discuss and decide together." ”

As soon as Wen Han heard about selling horses, he couldn't sit still, and was about to get up and object, no matter what others thought, he had to stick to his own ideas, but he didn't expect Meng Xuan to hold him down: "Don't be in a hurry to oppose it first, listen to what Captain Qin has to say first, I'm not afraid to tell you, when I heard Captain Qin tell me about this for the first time, I was more excited than you, but now I agree with Captain Qin's decision, don't you want to know the reason?" ”

Meng Xuan's words made Wen Han stunned, thinking about it, Meng Xuan, as a veteran of the battlefield, has a deeper understanding of the importance of war horses than himself, and now not only Meng Xuan agreed to this proposal, but also personally went to Fengxiang, Chang'an and other places to find buyers, there must be a reason.

Thinking about these clearly, Wen Han gradually calmed down: "It's not that Wen Han is not calm enough, but Wen Han is a person who fights horses, he has often been bullied by the party cavalry over the years, and knows the importance of war horses, if we don't have war horses, then the next time the party people come, we still haven't blocked their capital, to put it in my heart, I value these war horses more than my own life, this suddenly heard Captain Qin say that he wants to sell horses, isn't this equivalent to asking for my Wen Han's life?" So I didn't hold back for a while, and some Meng Lang made Captain Qin and you laugh. ”

Meng Xuan said with a smile: "I understand this feeling very well when Deputy Wen is talking about it, and I also felt this way when I first heard Captain Qin say this. ”

Qin Zhen said with a smile: "To be honest, Wen Han can oppose it so firmly, I am very happy, even happier than all of you unconditionally support me, I can see that you are all sincerely thinking about the Flying Eagle Regiment and Tong'an Town." I am also to blame for this matter, it was proposed too suddenly, and there was no time for everyone to buffer, but at that time, I was just a temporary idea, and I didn't know if I could implement it, so this matter was only limited to me, Meng Xuan and Luosheng. ”

Han Ruoyun has not spoken since she entered the council hall, even if Qin Zhen said that she had betrayed the horse, when Wen Han, Ma Xuan and several others were emotional, Han Ruoyun was still quiet, she was not a soldier, so her reaction to the sale of horses was not as strong as Wen Han, Ma Xuan and others, and with her unconditional trust in Qin Zhen, in her opinion, Qin Zhen sold half of the war horses of the Flying Eagle Regiment, which seemed a little incredible on the surface, but she believed that Qin Zhen must have a good reason.

Han Ruoyun listened to everyone's discussion while thinking about the reason for Qin Town's horse sale, and suddenly her beautiful eyes lit up: "Selling horses can not only save our Flying Eagle Regiment from the heavy burden at present, but also use the silver taels to solve the current problem of lack of grain and cattle in our Tong'an Town, which is the most beneficial to the current situation of our Tong'an Town." ”

Hearing Han Ruoyun's words, Han Wenzhi, Wen Han, and Ma Xuan were a little stunned, but Qin Zhen, Meng Xuan, and Chen Luosheng's eyes lit up, and Meng Xuan smiled: "Deputy Han is talking about it, how can each have a good law?" ”

Han Ruoyun straightened out her thoughts and said softly: "I'm not a soldier, so I don't have as deep feelings for those war horses as you do, so I look at this matter from the perspective of a bystander, but I can see it more clearly than you soldiers." War horses are indeed the guarantee of the combat effectiveness of our Flying Eagle Regiment, there is nothing wrong with this, but have you ever thought about it, the cost of raising a batch of war horses can feed the third adult at the most, if it is more relaxed, it can even feed four or five people, our Tong'an Town is now seriously short of food, and a hundred horses are indeed difficult to afford. ”

Wen Han frowned and said: "I know that the cost of raising a batch of war horses is huge, but when we came to Tong'an Town, this batch of materials was already allocated to us by Guo Duwei, and it is no problem for us to feed these war horses." As for the problem of food shortage in Tong'an Town, didn't we already discuss a plan when we had a meeting last time? ”

Han Ruoyun nodded: "Deputy Team Wen is right, our Flying Eagle Regiment this year's materials Guo Duwei has indeed been fully allocated to us, but Deputy Team Wen should also know that the reason why we got these sufficient materials is not that Captain Guo is grateful that at the beginning, Captain Tang Tianhe led the entire Flying Eagle Regiment out of the city to meet the party army, and all of them were sacrificed, and our captain reorganized the Flying Eagle Regiment, and there were many difficulties, so Guo Duwei gritted his teeth and gave us sufficient supplies. We have plenty of supplies this year, but what about next year? And the year after? What is the current situation in Weizhou, I think Deputy Wen should know better than me, now our Flying Eagle Regiment and even the entire Zhichong Mansion are like water in a pool, but the source is very small, and the replenishment is insufficient, and it will dry up one day. Captain Qin took us to Tong'an Town to open up the wasteland, in addition to wanting to reduce the pressure on Guo Duwei's side, he must also be thinking about finding a way out for the future of Weizhou. ”

Han Ruoyun didn't say a word, Wen Han's face turned white, he followed Wang Sheng to fight in Weizhou for many years, how could he not understand that every word Han Ruoyun said was the truth, and it was precisely because it was a fact that he understood the seriousness of the current Weizhou problem.

Han Ruoyun continued: "Although we determined several solutions to the lack of food in Tong'an Town during the last council, this is far from enough, although there is a guarantee from Guo Duwei of Zhichong Mansion, but so far we have borrowed very little food, if we can't raise food, we will starve to death before the autumn harvest next year, we are now facing the problem is not how to make the army strong, but how to let the people who come to us to open up the wasteland survive, only we have passed this hurdle, and the people of Tong'an Town have enough food in their hands, Only when the source is sufficient will we have more and more water in this pool, and at that time, we will not sell horses, but buy horses. ”

"Smack!" Meng Xuan was the first to stand up and applaud.

"Bang bang bang!" Everyone in the council hall stood up and applauded Han Ruoyun's speech just now.

Seeing that everyone stood up and applauded themselves, Han Ruoyun, who was calm and calm just now, looked a little cramped, and waved her hand again and again: "This is just my family's words, if there is anything inconsiderate, I hope everyone will criticize and correct." ”
