Chapter 586: Bai is happy
Peter didn't completely dispel his doubts, but Xiao Chen's explanation seemed reasonable.
The main reason is that Peter thinks that Da Zhou has no strength to start a war with Ross at present, and he doesn't believe that Li Wanjiang or Xiao Chen have the courage.
Despite this, he decided to put all his cavalry units on the Western Front, ready to go to war with Da Zhou at any time.
Before Li Wanjiang gave him an official answer, the port was temporarily blocked, and the roads between Shunfeng Port and Changshan City were all blocked, and no one was allowed to enter or leave without his governor's order.
"Please understand, Mr. Xiao Chen, I have to do this." When he saw Xiao Chen today, he also officially announced this decision with him.
"I understand, but I think you're making a bit of a fuss Peter, and it's not what you think...... In this way, as soon as General Qin Gang arrives, the two of us will come over to talk to you in person, and if there is any misunderstanding at that time, make it clear in person......" Xiao Chen can only say this.
War is about to start, and it's useless to say anything, but I feel a little sorry for this Governor Peter, after all, the two are still friends.
So the gifts given to their husband and wife were also very rich, and they took the initiative to stay for a dinner party, drank a lot of wine, made a lot of jokes, and complained a little, and finally fell drunk.
Everything is so normal.
The next day, after saying goodbye to Peter, the group returned to Changshan Prefecture, and the brothers had a lively meeting without saying.
Liu Congshu also had to set up a banquet to catch the wind, Xiao Chen said pull it down, the broken vodka that I drank in Shunfeng Harbor last night may be a fake wine, and now I still have a headache!
Get in the car dumplings and get off the noodles, you get some hand-rolled noodles for everyone to eat, it's serious.
Although the food is simple, the specifications of this reception banquet can be said to be very grand.
Chen Jisheng, Zhuge Xiaosheng, Dugulou, Wei Yuntian, Ye Baiqing, Liu Mofeng, Madman, Liu Fuhai, Liu Congshu, Lin Yue, Yue Zhonglin, Lu Fei, Gongsun Ban...... Even Wen Chengxu made a special trip over.
Since coming to Yanyun County, it is the first time that there are so many heads.
Everyone was waiting for Xiao Chen to say a few words......
"The benevolent chief is still fresh, have you come back with the news? Is Uloran okay? Xiao Chen was most worried about this matter.
"There it is." Ye Baiqing said.
"Huh?" Xiao Chen was shocked to hear this, and his face changed greatly.
The main reason is that he is too nervous, and Ye Baiqing's answer is also lacking in morality, what does it mean to have it?
Is Uloran pregnant?
"There's news." Ye Baiqing sighed, "The big guy is happy in vain, Wu Luolan is not bad for your boss's species!" ”
"Oh......" Xiao Chen was relieved, but he had a little regret.
It's hard to put into words.
"Why isn't Hamming here? Are you going back to your hometown? Xiao Chen looked around and didn't see Wu Hanming.
After Xiao Chen arrived in Fengyang City, he asked Wu Hanming Yibu and the Burmese soldiers to come back first, and of course, those gold and jewelry were also shipped back.
Wu Hanming's hometown is in Bailong City, Yanyun County, so Xiao Chen thought he had returned to his hometown.
"When I went back, he had no relatives at home, and his house was gone...... After returning for two days, he left all his men to me and went to the shipyard by the river. Dugulou said with a smile, "I also had a quarrel with Gongsun Ban, and we talked about this just now." ”
"Wu Hanming, this person is extremely rude!" Gongsun Ban was indignant when he talked about this, "He insisted that I convert those built warships into the style of their Burmese warships, and the installed cannons should also be unloaded to load their bullshit mannado?" Isn't that! ”
"Gongsun stabbed him back and he found me again, I told him to find the madman, but the madman didn't pay attention to him, he may be wandering around the arsenal now." Dugu Corridor.
"This man is very tough!" The madman said, "If you don't say that their whirlwind cannon is better than the one I developed, I don't even bother to talk to him, let him see it for himself." ”
"But he is definitely an excellent sailor general, boss, you give him to me." Dugulou admired Wu Hanming very much, and now he lacked such experienced generals under him.
Although Yue Zhonglin is also very good, after all, he has never fought a water battle, and it is okay to engage in hand-to-hand combat, but it is not good to command ships to deal with the other party.
"All of their commanders are for you, and there are still twenty warships, all of which have been intercepted by Li Feng's rabbit cub." Xiao Chen was angry when he talked about this.
"Battleships are easy to get, but generals are hard to find!" Dugulou doesn't care about warships, he only values talents.
"Boss, Qin Gang's vanguard of 5,000 people has arrived, I will arrange them all in the temporary military camp outside Xicheng, the deputy general Zhou Wulin who led the troops wants to take over the defense of Changshan Prefecture, I didn't agree, he is still very unhappy, hehe, are they going to fight with the Rus or do they want to fight with us first?" Zhuge Xiaosheng said.
"Don't bird him, wait until Qin Gang comes." Xiao Chen said.
"What if Qin Gang insists on taking over Changshan's defense?" Zhuge Xiaosheng asked.
"It's not just Changshan." Xiao Chen sneered, "He still wants to take over our entire Yanyun County!" It's just that this guy is too impatient, and the Rus haven't driven it away yet, so they are thinking about occupying the territory, and they must let Lao Tzu not die! ”
"The boss must not die, then Qin Gang must die." Ye Baiqing said with a smile, "This is his own death, but it's no wonder that we are killed." ”
This simple truth is clear to all of you.
Zhuge Xiaosheng transferred all the elite soldiers under his command to Xiao Cheng, and hid them in the name of building the city, Xiao Cheng was on the way through which Qin Gang came, which was equivalent to being placed under his nose, just to see if he could find out?
It doesn't matter if you find out, just say that these soldiers who were originally recruited temporarily, and now that Lord Xiao has ordered them to be disbanded, then it is just right for them to build the city.
And for good reason.
Dugulou's sailors are all stationed by the river, and this one has already been told to the emperor, and they are all improvised and indiscriminate, and they have no combat effectiveness at all.
Qin Gang doesn't understand water warfare, and he won't be stupid enough to take this rabble under his command, but even if he wants it, Xiao Chen won't give it!
Xiao Chen only promised the emperor to give Qin Gang 3,000 elite soldiers, which he could give and really give, and it was indeed an elite heavy armored cavalry, which was still led by Wei Yuntian himself.
You have to say that this sincerity is complete, right?
But whether you can command Wei Yuntian or not, that's your own business, anyway, I'll leave it to you.
Xiao Chen did not leave a single soldier in Changshan City...... But there is a city defense team responsible for public security, which is not much, only 2,000 people, and the captain of the city defense team is Lin Yue.
In addition, there is a horse farm in the south of the city, and there are 1,000 people even with the horsemen and miscellaneous logistics guards, but the head of the horse farm is Yama.
Of course, important places like the Arsenal of the Madman, the Imperial Treasure Prison of the Second Madman Liu Fuhai, and the hundreds of security teams responsible for guarding it, are not worth mentioning.
As for the regular army, there is not a single one...... If there must be a one, it is the pro-guard in Governor Xiao Chen's mansion.
That is, Xiao Ye's Xiao Cavalry Guard, Ling'er's Flying Wing Guard, and Lu Fei's Yulin Guard.
