Chapter 760: The Ills of the Officers and Soldiers

After the fifth line and Sun Xiaowu finished the affairs of the Kong family, they temporarily returned to Xiaoyaomen. Wang Jinghao had to secretly protect the princess along the way, and he didn't get too involved in other things.

After all, his job is to protect the princess, and he can leave nothing else. Fortunately, he still let the success or failure duo contact the official army, and it was not without help. Sun Xiaowu was worried that there were still people who drank snake wine and were poisoned, but he had not yet found out. So he informed Ren Xiaoyao of this matter again, and Ren Xiaoyao naturally mobilized the power of Xiaoyaomen again, and carefully visited it again to ensure that nothing went wrong. At the same time, in order to prevent the Kong family from being in danger again, he secretly sent disciples to guard near the Kong family day and night, and whenever there was any trouble, he would do his best to protect the safety of the Kong family. Ren Xiaoyao also knew that if even the Kong family, which was closest to Xiaoyaomen, could not be protected, then the other sects would naturally not mention it, and they would definitely not dare to believe in Xiaoyaomen anymore.

The winners and losers also came back quickly, and brought back good news. It's just that this news can be good news or bad news.

Even in the fifth line, it may not be known whether this matter is good or bad at this time.

In order to coordinate the official army, the emperor actually sent Shi Zhong, the prince of Dongchang Factory, to be the supervisor of the army, and Shi Zhong has come to Hangzhou Mansion, and now he is in the mansion of Hong Yinghong, the prefect of Hangzhou. After learning of this, the two heroes went to Lord Hong's mansion first, met with Hong Ying and Shi Zhong, and preliminarily discussed the issue of coordination between the official and the army. Hong Ying proposed that it was best for the officers and troops to be under the unified command of the chief soldier Chu Wei Chu, and Hong Ying would assist from the side, and the factory Gong Shi Zhong would still be the supervising army.

The success or failure is difficult because he doesn't know how to lead the troops, so he agreed to this plan for the time being, but he still needs to inform the commander of Jinyiwei Wang Jinghao Wang. Hong Ying learned that Wang Jinghao had also arrived in Hangzhou, so he proposed to set up a banquet in Hongfu, specially inviting Wang Jinghao, Ren Xiaoyao and the fifth line of heroes of the rivers and lakes. After all, if the officials and the army join forces with the heroes of the rivers and lakes, there are still many things to discuss between them. Ren Xiaoyao, as the initiator of this anti-Japanese conference, should naturally meet with the prefect Hong Ying and the general soldier Chu Wei.

It's just that the identity of Princess Qingying has not yet been disclosed, except for important people who know the identity of the princess, the emperor and King Xiao have strictly ordered that the true identity of the princess should not be easily revealed. They knew very well that if the official army participated in the anti-Japanese war, and the identity of the princess was revealed in advance, then the princess would soon become the target of the Japanese invaders. This is very bad for the princess in the first place, and it will also have a serious impact on the overall situation.

Although Shi Zhong knew the identity of Princess Qingying, he didn't dare to reveal it easily. Hong Ying didn't know that Princess Qingying was in Xiaoyaomen, and he hadn't seen the princess either, just to let the government and the heroes of the anti-Japanese war meet first, so it was reasonable to hold a banquet.

Ren Xiaoyao is in the middle of employing people, and he is naturally very happy to hear the good news brought back by the success or failure. Although he doesn't like this factory Gong Shizhong very much, after all, he is only a prison army, and the real leaders who participated in the anti-Japanese war are the prefect Hong Ying and the chief soldier Chu Wei.

If the Lord of the Mansion invites him, he is specially discussing the matter of resisting the Japanese, so Ren Xiaoyao and the fifth line naturally want to go to the appointment. Tang Mugong is the master of the Tang Sect, and it can be said that he should be the strongest party in the rivers and lakes of this anti-Japanese conference, and he naturally wants to meet the general soldier.

The princess is a person who loves to be lively, and she is also a follower of the fifth line, and wherever the fifth walks, she will naturally not fall.

Wang Jinghao, Ren Xiaoyao, Tang Mugong, the fifth line, the success or failure of the two heroes, the princess and Sun Xiaowu and others, went to the prefect's mansion together, and met the people in the official mansion on time as agreed.

Hong Ying, Shi Zhong, and the chief soldier Chu Wei have also been waiting in Hongfu for a long time.

In comparison, Ren Xiaoyao and the fifth line did not have much interest in Shi Zhong and Hong Ying, after all, although they had great power, they did not know how to lead troops to fight. What they are really interested in is this Chu General Soldier. They don't know anything about this person, and if they want to cooperate with him, they must understand it first.

If this person is an honest soldier, then maybe they have really been reinforced.

However, if he is just a ruffian, an incompetent wine bag and rice bag, then it will be a little more troublesome to have him. If you can't help it, you won't be able to help, and you will definitely be involved with others.

This is what Ren Xiaoyao and the fifth line are most afraid of.

If you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates.

Ren Xiaoyao has always had a bad impression of the officers and soldiers, mainly because there are not many people in the officers and soldiers who really do things, but there are many people who eat and wait for death. If not, the Japanese would not be so rampant, and there is not even a single official army to conquer it?

Wang Jinghao and everyone came to Lord Hong's mansion, and naturally greeted each other without mentioning it. Lord Hong then set up a banquet, and everyone chatted while eating, but it was not very happy.

The fifth line and Ren Xiaoyao both took the opportunity to talk to the general army of Nachu, and they both felt that this person was not a wine bag and a rice bag. In words, he is still a relatively upright officer.

"Chief Chu Bing? In fact, there has always been an unclear thing in the fifth line, why are the Japanese in various coastal areas so rampant, but the officers and troops in these coastal towns have never done much, and have never sent troops to recruit and suppress? The fifth line finally asked tentatively.

The words of the fifth young man are also something that Chu is ashamed of. Although the officers and troops of each town seem to have a large number of them, they are scattered in various places one after another, and the strength of the troops is actually not uniform. Moreover, although garrison officers like us have some troops in their hands, they can't mobilize too many troops without the orders of the imperial court. Once they go ashore, their number ranges from hundreds to thousands, and there is still a lack of martial arts masters. If a small number of officers and troops go to the battle, not only will they not be able to defeat the Japanese invaders, but they will be surrounded by them. In the next few years, although we have always been careful, we have suffered from the rapid arrival and coming and going of the Japanese and the speed of our officers and troops being extremely slow, and they often cannot be used in a centralized manner. Even though they managed to gather, the Japanese had already fled. Chu Wei replied seriously.

When Chu Wei said this, the fifth line and the others naturally felt reasonable. Over the years, the court has always controlled the army in its own hands, and the border officers actually have little power. If you want to transfer troops, you must first go to the court, and as soon as you come and go, not to mention the time delay, the Japanese have already fled.

"Then, if the officers and troops of all the towns near Hangzhou Mansion are transferred to the command of Chu General Soldiers, can Chu General Soldiers have the confidence to exterminate the Japanese Invaders?" Wang Jinghao got the princess's eyes, so he asked.

"In this way, it is naturally better, I am afraid of ......" Chu Wei was in front of Shi Zhong, the factory official, and some things were not easy to say, so he swallowed back halfway through the words.

"Don't worry! Mr. Chu, this matter is on our family. Shi Zhong is a smart person, and he has already seen through Chu Wei's thoughts, so he gave him a heart pill.

"Good! Then the lower official thanked Gonggong Shi here. Chu Wei was very happy when he heard this.
