Chapter 370: Mobilize the Troops and Horses
And just as Chen Mu and the big man were inquiring about what General Zhang and the people in the capital had said and done after they went to his barracks, Chen Mu heard a hurried knock on the door outside the mansion.
Chen Mu glanced at the female official standing in the courtyard, and someone stepped forward to open the door.
Sure enough, the general who had received Chen Mu's order arrived in a hurry.
These people arrived faster than Chen Mu expected, and they all felt quite uneasy, not knowing what Chen Mu's purpose was in summoning them to this county at this time.
They were worried that there was a problem with their barracks in the recent period, which made Chen Mu aware of it, but on the way to this county, they carefully recalled it and made sure that there was no major problem in their barracks in the recent period.
Even if there were some small fights, they were just clashes between the petty generals in the barracks, and it would not be at all that His Royal Highness the Prince of Labor would summon them to this county.
They were at a loss, and after entering the palace and seeing Chen Mu, they were first as panicked as the first general to arrive, intending to kneel.
After being exempted from the courtesy by Chen Mu, he saw Chen Mu ask them about visiting their barracks with General Zhang and the people in the capital.
From those generals, I learned that ten days ago, General Zhang and the adults from the capital not only went to the barracks of the first general to rebel against them, but also rushed to the barracks of other soldiers.
It's a pity that these soldiers are either backed by the big families, or they have sufficient authority and have dealings with people in the capital.
They are afraid of these people in their hearts, and they are worried that they will not be able to restrain the power in the hands of these people, and at the same time, let these people know their plans, which will easily lead to the revelation of their conspiracy.
So General Zhang and the others put their minds away and did not try to rebel against these generals again.
After careful investigation, Chen Mu nodded with satisfaction, since this is the case, then these people can naturally be trusted.
After Chen Mu saw everyone gathered in the mansion, he waved his hand and asked people to close the door of the hall.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, only one light was left in the room, and the general stationed abroad sat in the hall worriedly, not knowing what important things Chen Mu had to arrange and plan.
They looked at each other, looked at each other, and after Chen Mu sat down in front of them, a great general stepped forward and asked.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, you first asked about General Zhang, and then asked about the garrison of our barracks during this time, and the overall planning of grain and grass, you ...... Do you have any plans and plans? ”
When Chen Mu heard someone ask like this, he nodded with a smile and responded.
He did not hide it, and told these generals about the conspiracy between General Zhang and the people in the capital, and the conspiracy of General Mu and others stationed at the border.
When these generals heard that those people were preparing to rebel, they were shocked, and they looked at each other in horror in the direction of Chen Mu.
Seeing that Chen Mu only looked at them with a faint expression, they pondered for a moment, and one of them spoke.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, we have never been bribed by those people, nor have we ever been disloyal to the imperial court, if Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not believe us, you can send someone to our military camp to search."
"We did deal with General Zhang and the adults from the capital some time ago, but our center is stubborn, and his heart can be learned!"
"Yes, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, although we have dealt with them, we have not seen their thoughts at all, and we have never thought of betraying the imperial court."
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can send someone to our military camp at any time, and we are also willing to hand over the tiger talisman in our hands, as long as Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince can trust us."
Several generals stood up and knelt in front of Chen Mu, showing their loyalty, and Chen Mu nodded when he saw this.
When he had not talked to these generals about the plans of General Zhang and others just now, he took the lead in testing the attitudes of these generals when dealing with General Zhang and others, just to find out whether these people were loyal to the imperial court.
Now that he had received a satisfactory answer, he did not have any unnecessary concerns, he waved his hand to the generals, and then said.
"Rest assured, I am willing to trust you, and I have gathered you here today, not only to tell you about this, but also to tell you about my plans and arrangements for the last few days."
"After you return to the camp, mobilize troops and horses, try your best to cover up your actions of transferring troops and sending generals, and don't let General Zhang and several other people in the barracks notice that something is wrong."
"Immediately after I sent you the letter, you sent troops to surround the men of the barracks, and I will tell you the barracks in which you are responsible for coordinating and confronting you."
"When the people of those barracks are controlled in the future, I will escort the men and horses of the barracks back to the capital, and after killing the leader of the rebels, the men and authority of the barracks may be distributed to you and under your command."
"I also hope that you can be careful and do not leak the news, if the plan is revealed, then this thing will not work, the rebels are trying to rebel and attack the capital, which is also a big disaster for the capital."
Now that Chen Mu said this, several generals looked at each other, nodded their heads, and responded to each other.
They understood what Chen Mu meant, and Chen Mu saw that several people had serious faces and solemn faces, and they also nodded with satisfaction.
The reason why he explained that after this matter was done, he would hand over the authority and garrison of the barracks that intended to rebel to these generals to manage, in order to throw a bait and make these generals willingly die for themselves.
Although the position of the crown prince is pressed in front, but now, these generals know that those people intend to rebel, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not have other thoughts.
Only by seducing them with benefits can we stabilize their hearts.
After deciding on the next plan, Chen Mu did not delay, waved his hand, and let the generals return to the camp.
In the next two days, because Chen Mu pretended to be someone from the family to send a message to General Zhang, General Zhang and the others temporarily put down their minds and did not try to attack the cottage where General Qian and the others were located.
But even so, they felt quite uneasy, and they couldn't understand why those people in the capital had not let them attack the cottage where General Qian and the others were.
But fortunately, in the past few days, seeing that General Qian and others have never sent news to the outside world, they have also temporarily suppressed their minds and waited for the arrangements of the people in the capital.
Two days later, the soldiers and horses arranged by Chen Mu had arrived in the county where Chen Mu was located.
In addition, Chen Mu sent news to the generals who conspired with him a few days ago, and those generals had also counted their manpower.
A letter arrived, and at the sound of an order, the generals immediately went out and surrounded the nearest rebel camp.
