Chapter 119: Liu Buxiu, Chief Ye
Huang Yuchen looked at his eldest brother's eyes intently, and felt that his expression suddenly became serious, and he realized in his heart that the words of the eldest brother in the back might really involve secrets.
"Little brother. Huang Yuanwu frowned slightly, and said softly: "What I said to you later, I shouldn't have told you, my father had a plan for your future, and my eldest brother also thought that it was the most suitable path for you, but the matter has come to this point, and I can only tell you." After knowing these things, you are no longer a prince who has been hidden in the snow, you must grow into a real warrior, I will ask you again, have you decided, do you want to take this path?" Huang Yuanwu looked at Huang Yuchen's eyes, and his tone was firm.
The eldest brother has never spoken to himself in such a tone, and Huang Yuchen understands in his heart that what he will say later is much more important than before, and it is impossible to get away from it if he knows the real battlefield matter.
But he shuttled back unexpectedly this time, thinking only about the affairs of his family and country, and reshaping the rivers and mountains. Therefore, without the slightest hesitation, he nodded to Huang Yuanwu and said firmly: "I have decided, big brother, you can say it." ”
"Good. Huang Yuanwu nodded, as if he had put down a boulder in his heart, and the state of the whole person became much easier after Huang Yuchen's decision.
In Huang Yuanwu's heart, his youngest brother Huang Yuchen was what he was most worried about. Now that Huang Yuchen has decided to join the battle, the rest of the matter will be much easier.
"You said, you saw a few generals in the hall before, discussing matters with me, do you know why? I sent them out, what is the so-called matter?" Huang Yuanwu breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Huang Yuchen, but he was smiling, and his tone became softer.
Huang Yuchen shook his head when he heard this, indicating that he didn't know. But he looked at his eldest brother's state and knew what important decisions had been made in his eldest brother's heart, otherwise, the state of the whole person would not have changed so much.
"Do you know that under the rule of my Eastern Palace, there are twenty cities, and these cities are divided into four parts, which are responsible for the supply of soldiers, grain and grass, military armor, and taxes on the border. Huang Yuanwu continued.
"I know that. Huang Yuchen nodded and said: "This is the strategy set by my father back then, twenty seats are divided into four parts, each performing its own duties, and they are also the logistics support of our entire border." ”
"Yes. Huang Yuan Wu said: "The few generals I sent out just now are to let them set off one step in advance, go to a few main cities, and inform the four city lords that starting tomorrow, I will go to inspect the twenty cities." After Huang Yuanwu finished speaking, he seemed to think of something annoying again, his smile retracted, and he stroked his beard gently.
"This should be your normal inspection, big brother, what's there to worry about?" Huang Yuchen was puzzled: "The twenty cities under our rule have always been loyal, and there has never been any chaos, and now the eldest brother is just going to inspect, why are you worried?"
Because of this, the eldest brother has concerns in his heart. Huang Yuanwu took a tone and said softly: "The twenty cities are divided into four parts, which are led by four city lords, and these four city lords are loyal to their father and have no two hearts. But now that my father's life and death are uncertain, I can't say what will happen next. ”
Huang Yuchen was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and hurriedly asked, "Big brother, are you afraid of them...... Do you not obey your orders?"
Huang Yuan Wu said: "The life and death of my father is uncertain, and I didn't leave anything before leaving, the four city lords only know that my father returned to the hinterland to quell the rebellion of the three kings, but they should not know about being besieged in the inner city." After speaking, he paused for a moment and continued: "Although I am the young master of the East Prince's Mansion, I have not been officially sealed, I am not the real East King, my father's whereabouts are unknown, and the four city lords only listen to my father's orders. But if my father really dies on the battlefield, what will happen later ...... It's tricky. ”
After listening to this, Huang Yuchen understood what his eldest brother meant.
Under the rule of the East King, the four city lords are responsible for the internal affairs of the entire front line of the East Palace.
The front line of the Eastern King has always been external, so the Eastern Palaces are generally built on the edge of the border, and the twenty cities under his rule are all in the hinterland behind them. If this civil strife is not settled, and the king of the east dies on the battlefield, the hinterland will become the front line. The four city lords have soldiers and generals in their hands, as well as grain and grass, and they are the main logistics city under the command of the East King, but if the East King dies in battle and the hinterland becomes the front line, will there be any change in the hearts of these city lords, and will they obey the orders of Huang Yuanwu and unanimously open to the outside world. That's a bit of an inconclusive.
But if you lose the twenty cities in your belly, the Eastern Wangfu wants to support the future restoration plan alone, which is tantamount to a fool's dream. Without logistical supplies, if you want to fight, it's just a dream.
Huang Yuchen thought about it in his mind, understood the eldest brother's heart, and said: "Big brother, you don't have to worry, the four city lords will not know about their father at this moment, this time, I will see them one by one, and I will have eyebrows in my heart, and when the third brother brings back the soldiers and horses, if there is still someone with a rebellious heart, we will wave down and level him." ”
Huang Yuanwu listened to Huang Yuchen's words, smiled bitterly, and said: "What you think is simple, let's not talk about how many soldiers and horses your third brother can bring back, even if you bring them back, the eldest brother has other uses, these twenty cities are the henchmen of the East Prince's Mansion, if they draw swords against each other, will there be people behind who will follow the eldest brother to calm down the war? Most of the troops under our command are from the twenty cities, if you let the soldiers attack their own villagers, do you think they will listen?"
"Uh......" When Huang Yuanwu said this, Huang Yuchen was suddenly stunned, he thought about things too simply.
Sergeants, too, people. People have feelings, and although it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, there is also a premise for that. If the commander really ordered them to draw their swords against their hometown, they would disrespect the order at least, or the army would mutiny, and then it would become out of control. What else do you say about recovering the heavens, reorganizing the mountains and rivers, and surviving are all extravagant hopes.
Huang Yuchen frowned, thought about this matter carefully, and stopped talking nonsense.
He knows very little about the battlefield and officialdom, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a white ding. In Huang Yuchen's heart, the battlefield conquest is who has the final say, although he has read many military books and battle strategies before, and many classic battles are recorded on them, but what is recorded in the book is not exhaustive. After being truly immersed in the scene, he realized that this battlefield conquest and war were not just blindly drawing swords against each other. Rather, long before the battle began, the battle began.
"Little brother takes it for granted, big brother. Huang Yuchen's tone was slightly apologetic, and he said softly: "Big brother, do you have any countermeasures, can you talk to the little brother?"
"You don't have battlefield experience, and I don't blame you for saying that. Huang Yuanwu sighed and said, "Although I have a countermeasure in my heart, I haven't implemented it, and I still don't have a bottom. ”
"Big brother, tell me. Huang Yuchen said: "Although I don't have much experience in the battlefield, one more person to discuss, and one more way of thinking." ”
"These four city lords ......" Huang Yuanwu said softly: "Each of the four city lords is a talent who has passed through the heavens and latitudes, and they all have the style of a general. It's just ......" Saying that, Huang Yuanwu looked at Huang Yuchen with doubts in his eyes, and said: "It's just that whether they will listen to my orders, whether my father is trapped, whether they will disrespect the orders and attack without authorization, I still don't know the bottom of my heart." If the news of their father's trapping reaches their ears, they don't know what they will do. ”
After hearing this, Huang Yuchen also fell into deep thought, and frowned slightly. This matter is indeed a bit tricky, but after thinking about it, hasn't the eldest brother already arranged for the general to pass on the news, saying that he will go on patrol soon, it seems that the eldest brother already has a countermeasure in his heart.
"Big brother. Huang Yuchen said: "Since you have decided to go on patrol, I am afraid that they will make any changes after hearing the news of your father. Since this news will inevitably come, it is better to let them hear it from the mouth of the eldest brother, so as to take the initiative and not let them feel that the eldest brother has any scruples about them. ”
Huang Yuanwu nodded: "The plan is so set, but in the face of these four city lords, the eldest brother still has some considerations in his heart. Hey......"
Huang Yuchen was a little stunned, he had never seen his eldest brother feel like this for anyone, and Huang Yuanwu had never felt so tricky because of anything, looking at Huang Yuanwu's state, Huang Yuchen was a little puzzled in his heart, what kind of role did these four city lords have.
He had never seen these four city lords, but he only knew that there were these four people, and as for their past, what kind of friendship they had with their father, he didn't know anything.
"Big brother. Huang Yuchen frowned slightly, and said, "Why are you so sad, I have never seen you like this." There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, no matter what these four city lords say, they are also the henchmen of their father, you are the young master of Dongfu, they will not do anything to you. ”
"I'm not afraid of what they do to me. Huang Yuanwu shook his head and said: "It's just that each of them has a good relationship with their father, and decades of battlefield love are all cut out with a knife, if they really learn the news that their father is trapped, even if I am afraid that I can't order, they will definitely rush up, attack the imperial capital, and save my father." ”
"This ......" Huang Yuchen didn't know what to say, he thought that the eldest brother would be afraid that these four city lords would defect, but now that he looked at it, the eldest brother was not worried about this at all, but worried that these people would immediately jump out to save his father when they heard the news of his father. If they do, it will hinder Big Brother's overall plan in the future. Although he knew about the Four City Lords, he didn't know what the relationship between the Four City Lords and his father was.
"These four city lords ...... What the hell is going on...... Big brother, can't you stop them?" asked Huang Yuchen puzzled.
"The Lord of the Four Cities......" Huang Yuanwu took a breath, looked at Huang Yuchen, and said: "Liu Yuanliu is endless, a senior martial artist cultivates, he used to be a general of the vanguard battalion under his father, not to mention the deep cultivation, he is loyal to his father, and on the battlefield, he is a master and fights bravely to kill the enemy. After decades of fighting on the battlefield and countless wounds, as long as he took on the task of the pioneer battalion, there was never a time when he did not complete it, and he would never stop until the task was completed. In addition, his tactics are fierce and he never stops. This gives rise to the title of Liu Bunon. This person was picked up by his father and is loyal, but this person admits death, and other things are fine, but if it really involves the safety of his father, I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to convince. ”
"Ye Guan, Commander Ye. Huang Yuanwu continued: "A high-level martial artist cultivates, a long sword, sharpens iron like clay, has a light body, and cultivates a rare wind fighting qi. He once served as the commander of his father's garrison battalion, until many years ago, he has been his father's personal guard, this person is quick thinking, cultivated to a high level, Wen Taowu is proficient in everything, and the current deputy marshal of the East Mansion is called the Shuangjie of the East Mansion, if it is not for the serious injury to save the father and stay in the rear to recuperate, at this moment our deputy commander of the East Mansion is the commander of this Ye. ”
"Dongfu Shuangjie?" Huang Yuchen felt a little incredible, the deputy marshal of Dongfu naturally knew that Wen Taowu was not inferior to his eldest brother, his father went out to fight, and many tactics of war were set by the deputy marshal.
Deputy Marshal Ning Yining knows the devil, and his wisdom is unparalleled, and the title of knowing the devil is also because of his strong wisdom, and he seems to be able to figure out the thoughts of ghosts and gods. This person is proficient in formations, and his own formation enlightenment is still taught by Deputy Marshal Ning Zhimo.
A person with the same name as Ning Zhimo...... Huang Yuchen frowned slightly, these two people are already so difficult to handle, and there are two more ......
