Chapter 92 Jiangmen Huzi
Yuzhou, Yuwangfu.
When the guards guarding the door saw two young men in soft armor and riding war horses stopped in front of the door, they immediately stepped forward.
"This is the Yuwang Mansion, dare to ask who Your Excellency is?"
If you can wear soft armor and ride a war horse, you must be in the army, so the guards dare not despise it.
Zheng Han turned over, "Our lord is Lord Shen of the Thousand Households of the Ministry of War, and he is also the son-in-law of General Mingwei, and he has been specially ordered to come to assist General Mingwei in suppressing bandits, I don't know where the general and others are located, so I came to the palace first." ”
After hearing this, the guard's attitude became a little more respectful.
"It turned out to be General Xiao Shen, the prince and General Shen and a few adults, now they have gone to the barracks to order troops, and the soldiers and horses who were transferred from nearby states and counties have just arrived, and they have only been able to burn incense for a while."
"Where is the barracks?" Shen Qianwei asked in a deep voice.
The guards hurriedly handed over their hands, "General Xiao Shen is not familiar with life, so let's send someone to take you there." ”
The people in Yuwangfu were not arrogant at all, but they looked very respectful, which was a little inconsistent with the image of the head snake in Shen Qianwei's heart.
However, hypocrites are not unusual, so he did not show any superfluous expression on his face, and only nodded.
"Thank you very much."
The guards answered, called someone to come, and led them to the Yuzhou military camp.
At that time, Shen He and King Yu were standing side by side, counting the people.
There are about 10,000 mountain bandits in Fuhu Village, and the mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so this time the bandits are invested in the troops.
There were 7,000 local garrisons in Yuzhou, as well as 8,000 people sent by the court, a total of 15,000 people, 5,000 more than the mountain bandits.
And the court was also well-equipped, from archers, crossbowmen to artillery battalions.
It can be seen that Emperor Jianning is determined to suppress bandits this time.
After all, if you get rid of the bandits in Fuhu Village for more than ten years in one fell swoop, it will greatly increase the morale of the court, gather the hearts of the people, and at the same time deter King Yu.
Of course, if it doesn't work, then King Yu may have to carry a hat.
The court would say that the defeat was due to the fact that the Yuzhou army under his command did not listen to the command, and the quality of the army was poor.
King Yu naturally would not willingly watch this situation happen, so how to suppress bandits, how to send troops, and how to win war merits are also what he has to consider.
In general, this crackdown on bandits is a game between Emperor Jianning and King Yu, and both sides will find ways to maximize their own interests while compromising each other's interests.
"Lord Wang, General Shen's son-in-law arrived, waiting outside the barracks, asking to meet, saying that he came by the emperor's order."
King Yu's close guards stepped forward and whispered in his ear.
Emperor Jianning did not inform him of this matter in advance, so King Yu did not know that Shen Qianwei would come, and a chill appeared in his eyes for a while.
But he quickly covered it up well, and waved his hand to let the guards retreat.
turned to Shen He with a smile.
"General Shen is really a tiger father without a dog, I didn't expect that this time to suppress bandits, Ling Gongzi was also ordered to come to Yuzhou, I'm afraid this is to help the general."
"Huh?" Shen He's face showed a little doubt, he didn't hear too clearly, "Who is here?" ”
"The general is just a son, who else can it be." King Yu no longer chewed words and spoke in the vernacular.
Hearing this, Shen He glared at his eyes like copper bells, and immediately commanded the people next to him.
"This kid, why is he here, what kind of fun is he coming, where is the person, call quickly!"
King Yu stopped him with a smile, "You don't need to send someone, this king has already asked someone to take him in." ”
After a while, everyone saw from a distance a young man with a long and straight body, wearing silver soft armor, a high ponytail, and a long knife hanging from his waist, striding towards this side.
Xu was in a hurry, and the young man's eyes were a little bloodshot, but his eyes were still sharp, and the whole person exuded a capable heroic spirit.
The thick eyebrows are like a sword, and a pair of eyes look at the shape of Danfeng eyes, narrow and long, and the tail of the eyes is raised, but it is bigger, it is more appropriate to say that the eye shape of Danfeng eyes and apricot eyes is more suitable, so it looks handsome and masculine and heroic.
The bridge of the nose is high and straight, the thin lips are lightly pursed, showing a bit of a young man who has been precipitated on the battlefield, and the cheek lines are clear and crisp, and he looks like a neat person.
To be honest, King Yu was a little surprised, he didn't expect Shen He's son to look so good.
After all, look at the middle-aged man next to him, he has a tiger face, although he is tall, he is fatter, he looks very strong and burly, and he looks like a big old man.
However, a closer look will still find that the father and son still have some similarities.
"Xiaguan has seen His Royal Highness King Yu, and he has seen all your lords!"
Shen Qianwei walked onto the parade platform and respectfully hugged his fists.
"No courtesy, the young general is really extraordinary, and he deserves to be a general." King Yu smiled and waved his hand.
"Thank you for the praise, the lower officials dare not be." Shen Qianwei said.
He said so, but his face and tone were calm, obviously he was really just modest.
This madness shows the spirit of a teenager.
King Yu hooked his lips and didn't care much.
After all, Shen Qianwei's age is about the same as that of his eldest daughter and eldest son, and in the eyes of King Yu, no matter how powerful he is, he is just a hairy boy.
However, this hairy boy found out the gunpowder case in Bianjing, and he was involved all the way to Yuzhou, causing him so much trouble, King Yu was still very unhappy in his heart.
"Why are you here, your mother is alone at home, don't worry about death, hurry up, go back to Lao Tzu now, what do you want to do." Shen He reprimanded him very unceremoniously.
Shen Qianwei was not afraid, "I came to assist you in suppressing bandits at the behest of the emperor, and I am also being ordered, my mother is very supportive, and she specially asked me to keep an eye on you and don't make mistakes." ”
Father and son usually talk like this, and they are no exception outside.
"Hey, you stinky boy, it's up to you to make any mistakes that Lao Tzu can make." Shen He glared.
Thinking that he still had to give face to his father in front of outsiders, Shen Qianwei still consciously softened quickly.
"How can I care about you as a son, I am here to be a pawn for you, but you are the first to look forward."
"That's pretty much it." Shen He snorted.
But the mouth is noisy, but when the eyes fall on the son, it is still soft.
Seeing that he was tired, he let him go to the post station to rest.
However, Shen Qianwei said that it was okay, and he would go back together after accompanying him to order troops, but Shen He did not insist.
So, the father and son each rode a horse, shuttled between the 15,000 soldiers, gave a high-spirited speech, and lifted the morale of the army.
King Yu looked at their father and son without saying a word, and his eyes were full of coldness.
He could see that although Shen Qianwei was young, he was more powerful and more difficult to entangle than Shen He, and with one more of him, I am afraid that the strategy he had thought about before to deal with Shen He would have to be changed again.
After the troops were ordered, it was already approaching evening.
Everyone agreed to discuss the tactics of suppressing bandits in Yuwangfu tomorrow, so let's stop here today.
The officials from Bianjing all stayed at the post house, so a group of people went back together.
"Dad, why didn't you see the Seventh Prince?" Shen Qianwei had the leisure to ask at this time.
Shen He said, "Yesterday, the Yu Palace's banquet was held, and several princes of the palace joined forces to get the Seven Princes drunk, but they didn't get up this morning, and they said that they were unwell at noon, so they didn't come to order the troops." ”
