Yingzhou City belongs to the territory of Jizhou and is located in the extreme east of Yanyun, so it can barely be regarded as a small "frontier" town.
But it is such a small city, but now it has become a place where dragons and tigers are hidden.
The reason is simple. This is now the base camp of the Northern Yan King Wu Zhi, the Zhendong Metropolitan Governor and the Tota Heavenly King Chao Gai.
The generals of Liangshan's line, except those who went out to lead the army, gathered in Yingzhou City on weekdays to drink and have fun.
If the other commanders see the generals below get together all day long, they will be very jealous of what they are plotting, but Wu Da does not care. Since he has even sealed the five chief governors, would he still taboo these
What's more, today’s Yanyun’s main force, except for Tong Ying’s 100,000 northwestern frontiers, are actually "scientific and practical soldiers," and the other major forces are all "caotai squads". Now, the five chief governors are able to perform their duties, hold them in the army, and do not act arbitrarily when going out on business. It is already not easy. If they are not allowed to get together to drink and have fun in their free time, then they will really be treated. Driven crazy.
However, today, the generals of Liangshan's line did not have a leisure time to go out and amuse themselves, and all the generals in the city came to Chao Gai's mansion.
Because... Wuhan University is here.
"See the prince!"
The Wuhan University dressed up in disguise and came lightly. Many generals, including Chao Gai, did not go out to greet him. At this time, the University of Wuhan entered the hall and everyone hurriedly saluted.
"Well, you and I are my own brothers, and there are no outsiders here. Let's get up and sit down!" Wu Da personally lifted Chao Gai and said with a smile.
Everyone got up with joy, and Wu Da discovered something abnormal.
Previously, Chao Gai was a burly, majestic man with a beard. When we met again this time, Wu Da found that he had lost a lot of weight and seemed to be a little less energetic.
But in front of everyone, Wu Da did not make a move.
After a little greeting, Chao Gai knew that in the current capacity of Wuhan University, he suddenly came to the small town of Yingzhou, and he must have something to discuss, so he opened the door and said: "In the first few days, I suddenly received a secret letter saying that the prince is coming to the camp. A trip to the state, I don’t know what the prince has to do?"
Wu Da glanced around, pondered for a moment, and said bluntly: "I don't know how many people can be deployed at any time in the entire Zhendong Army today?"
Chao Gai was startled, and after thinking about it for a long time, he replied, "At most 50,000 horses."
Wu University was slightly taken aback, looked at Chao Gai suspiciously. Chao Gai gave a wry smile, and said truthfully: "Master, we Liangshan people are very scattered, and a large number of people are in the Four Seas Escort. However, the Four Seas Escort is now in all directions, but because Song and Yan Yun didn’t deal with it a bit, and they often asked for trouble. So after Yan Yun’s situation became somewhat stable, Ximen Qing ordered to send almost all of the elite personnel originally transferred from the Four Seas Escort back to the Escort. One; two, now all the prefectures in Yanyun are doing their best to build major workshops, and the manpower is not enough, so many of our soldiers have to take turns to help; third, the bastard of Hunjiang Long Li Jun, take With the prince’s warrant, 10,000 elites were drawn from me; there are also major camps such as Linziying, Huoziying, Shanziying, and Qingyanying. Now the elites are drawn from the entire Yanyun army. There are not many people available under my command. I don’t need to hide from the prince. The 50,000 horses I mentioned earlier are at most 20,000. Most of the rest are government soldiers, and the latest recruits. Recruits."
Wu Da rubbed his head, and said with a headache: "No wonder I see you are a little uneasy, it seems that things are indeed a bit tricky."
This is inevitable. New recruits and veterans are two completely different concepts. Not only the combat effectiveness, but also the morale of the army are completely different, and it takes a long time to polish.
Chao Gai sighed, feeling bitter, "I used to live in a corner of Liangshan, and I was able to do my job well, but now I am looking at the world and speaking to my heart, I am a little bit powerless..."
"One fence, three piles, and a hero with three gangs. You don't lack generals under King Chao Tian, so why are you forced to lose so much weight?"
Wu Da did not say this and said, when he mentioned it, Chao Gai became a little angry, and gave Wu Da an annoyed look, and said: "Lord, you have a piece of order to transfer Gongsun Daochang to serve as the governor. Now I have a bunch of rough men in my hands. Let them go into battle and kill the enemy. Let them handle the military affairs for me? Why don't you take off their heads!"
The generals of Liangshan on both sides were a little embarrassed. Wu Da also sneered and said: "Now we Yanyun is waiting to be thriving. There are indeed many difficulties, but these are only temporary. There is no way. We lack talents. And I don’t dare to make arrangements in the army for those who don’t have any trivial matters in the army. In case they only know how to talk about soldiers on paper, but they point out their hands, then it will really be a big deal."
Chao Gai... silently aphasia.
After a moment of silence, Wu Da clapped his hands with fear and smiled: "What do you do with your head down? Do you think you are a little useless? Don't worry, you and I are brothers, although I am now being pushed to the position of King Beiyan by my brothers. , But I, Wu Zhi, absolutely can’t do the task of crossing the river and tearing down the bridge. What's more, big fists are the last word. After all, Yan Yun still needs brothers to guard him. If you are gone, what shall I do as the King of the North Yan? "
"Hahaha..."
Everyone in the house breathed a sigh of relief, and finally had some smiles.
In fact, when Wu Da first arrived, he felt it, perhaps because his status is different now, and he is in power, so the brothers and him are inevitably alienated, not as casual as before.
This is no way. Wuhan University is not a god, and can only make up for it as much as possible. It cannot do everything.
After that, Wu Da's face was solemn, and he said with a serious face:
"Chao Gai, the chief governor of Zhendong, hears the order!"
Chao Gai and all the generals in the house all got up and saluted.
"The end will be!"
"Send an order to recall all the soldiers who have returned to the Four Seas Escort, and mobilize 30,000 horses, including 20,000 veterans and 10,000 recruits, ready to go, waiting for the military order!"
"The final commander!"
Wu Da got up and said: "I have something to do today, so I won't drink freely with the brothers here. I will wait for the Qingyan Camp and other major camps to be in place another day. After the meeting, I will come to Yingzhou again."
Chao Gai personally sent the Wu University secrets out of the city, and asked in a low voice:
"Lord, looking at this posture, is it going to war? With whom? Da Song or Da Liao?"
Wu Da patted him on the shoulder and laughed: "King Chao Tian, I want to destroy the gold thief, and you are willing to go with me?"
Afterwards, Wu Da turned over and left.
Chao Gai was the only one left with a shocked expression on his face.
