Not long after Chen Hai sat down, he saw Jiang Mingchuan and Fu Shaoqun walking in with a sullen face. When passing by Chen Hai, Chen Hai clearly noticed that Jiang Mingchuan glanced at him from the corner of his eye.
After a while, the generals, surrounded by Jiang Mingchuan, Chen Hai, Qin Qian, Fu Shaoqun and others, walked out of the guarding general's mansion and headed towards the west gate.
Chen Hai cupped his hands and said, "It's your duty to guard the general."
Chen Hai expanded the Black Wind Army to 20,000 people in Beiling Fortress, reaching the size of a large camp. However, before Jiang Mingchuan, he provided supplies and military pay with 5,000 generals. Chen Hai prepared the rest from other places. Now Wu Zhi The cave not only supplies the military supplies for Beiling Fortress and Yanxing Fortress according to the actual number of people, but also doubles the standard. The resulting shortfall will be shared proportionally from the other ten camps, which is equivalent to a reduction of nearly two months for the other camps. How can the generals accept the huge supply of military supplies
Wu Zhidong took over as the garrison general. After Jiang Mingchuan resigned, he would stay at Yantaiguan as the governor to assist Wu Zhidong in handling military and political affairs.
Wu Zhidong shook his head and smiled, straightened up and said: "What you said is only from one aspect. Maybe Fu Shaoqun thinks so, but Qin Qian, you also need to know one thing. Chen Hai united his troops to kill the demons, and in the end, Mozhang Ridge and even The pressure faced by the entire Northwest Territory. To put it ten thousand steps back, Beiling Fortress is the Beiling Fortress of Yantai Pass. The military merits achieved by Beiling Fortress in killing the demons are also the military merits of Yantai Pass. If you have merit, you will be rewarded. Only by punishing those who make mistakes can the soldiers serve their lives. This is the most basic way of being a general, and there is really no need to think too much about it."
When Wu Zhidong and his entourage came closer, Jiang Mingchuan coughed slightly, stepped forward, bowed and said, "Superintendent Jiang Mingchuan respectfully welcomes the guard general."
As soon as Wu Zhidong got out of the car, he issued such a military order, which immediately caused an uproar among the generals.
Jiang Mingchuan apologized to Wu Zhidong with a hint of self-blame: "Mingchuan's imperial guards were lax and his troops were lax, which made the general laugh."
Wu Zhidong asked everyone accompanying him to sit down in the small hall, looked at Qin Qian and asked, "Is there anything you can't say in front of me?"
No matter what Jiang Mingchuan thought of him, as long as Jiang He, Huan Wen, Jiang Yuwei and others gathered around him, Chen Hai had nothing to fear from Jiang Mingchuan. Chen Hai naturally pretended to turn a blind eye to Fu Shaoqun's little tricks.
Yantaiguan stands at the western foot of Mozhang Ridge, and the terrain on the northwest side is the most open. The West Gate is also the main city gate facing the enemy at Yantaiguan. The buildings are particularly majestic, and the main street from the Guarding General's Mansion to the West Gate is also hundreds of thousands of miles away. meters wide, allowing armored knights and chariots to pass through in formation.
Qin Qian said: "I know that my uncle may want to express his goodwill to Chen Hai, so that Jiang Mingchuan and others will be at odds with him, and to resolve the resistance of my uncle in taking charge of Yantaiguan. However, Chen Hai is the personal disciple of Zhenjun Jiang Yin, even if he is fed, It is impossible for him to be grateful to you, uncle, and Jiang He, Huan Wen, Jiang Yuwei and others have a sworn relationship with him. Even if Jiang Mingchuan, Jiang Han and others hate him in their hearts, they can do nothing about him for the time being, and they cannot weaken Qin Qin. The clan’s control over Yantaiguan…”
Jiang Mingchuan also followed the rules and verified the order letter from the Zhuguo General's Mansion, and then asked the chief seal officer to hand over the Yantai Pass general's seal. All the generals paid homage to the new guard general one by one according to the list. Although the ceremony was complicated, it was over in half an hour.
The team that greeted Wu Zhidong quickly separated, allowing Wu Zhidong and Jiang Mingchuan to pass through.
Wu Zhidong waved his hand indifferently and said: "It doesn't matter, it's freezing cold, so many people have been waiting for me here for so long, and it's understandable that they are impatient. Let's go back to the general's mansion first, and then talk about other things. .”
When Qin Qian saw Wu Zhidong's chariots and horses, he subconsciously wanted to move forward to meet them. However, Jiang Mingchuan stood at the foot of the city with his hands behind his hands, showing no intention of stepping forward, so he could only stop abruptly.
This time, those who accompanied Wu Zhidong to Yantaiguan were not only the 5,000 elite Taoist soldiers of the Yuanyang Sect who formed Wu Zhidong's personal guard camp, but also dozens of direct disciples of Wu Zhidong and two of the Yuanyang Sect. The guardian elders at the peak of Tao Fei Realm accompanied him. They cannot be awarded general positions for the time being, but they will stay at Yantaiguan as Wu Zhidong's staff so that Wu Zhidong will not be left unavailable.
Wu Zhidong learned about some military and political affairs, and then said to the generals: "I have been tired from traveling all the way. The mountains are blocked by heavy snow now, and there is nothing urgent in the army. Don't rush back. I will entertain you all in the evening." "
Chen Hai was still worried that after Wu Zhidong was transferred, he might be transferred back to Yantaiguan or suppress the development of Beiling Fortress, but he did not expect that Wu Zhidong would make such a decision when he got off the bus.
The meeting hall of the Yantaiguan Guard General's Mansion, also known as the White Tiger Hall, is where the general's barracks is located.
The Guarding General's Mansion is the front and back house of the government. Jiang Mingchuan has moved out of the back house in advance. Wu Zhidong serves as the guarding general. Naturally, he and his entourage will live directly in the back house; the dinner for the generals in the evening will also be arranged. Back house.
Entering the White Tiger Hall, Wu Zhidong stood in front of the hall, staring at the tiger table in the center for a while, then walked over, picked up his shirt, and sat down squarely, waiting to receive the generals' homage.
Wu Zhidong nodded and continued: "Although the demon tribe suffered a heavy setback in Tianluo Valley, their military strength cannot be underestimated. I also hope that Mr. Chen will take charge of Beiling Fortress and continue his efforts to serve the court and avoid disturbance!"
Although Wu Zhidong's decision and the news spread by Fu Shaoqun will make him feel like he is being burned in Wanxian Mountain, especially within the Jiang clan, even if Wu Zhidong's intention is to alienate his relationship with other Jiang clan generals. , he had no way to refuse at this time.
Chen Hai raised his eyes and saw Fu Shaoqun walking side by side with Jiang Mingchuan without squinting his eyes, but with no expression on his face.
Although the pressure on Beiling Fortress will decrease after the opening of the town at Limashan and the construction of Yanxing Fortress by Fu Shaoqun, after several years of construction, Beiling Fortress is now the bridgehead for the attack on Tianluo Valley.
Qin Qian was also very puzzled by Wu Zhidong's sudden decision, but he knew that Wu Zhidong was a strict uncle, so he didn't know what to say appropriately.
Chen Hai and others waited under the West City Gate for more than half an hour before they saw more than four to five thousand armored cavalry escorting several chariots appear in the field of vision. The first ancient bronze chariot looked ordinary, and even had some It was full of traces, and it was just dragged slowly through the snow by two cunning black horses. But when Chen Hai opened his eyes and looked, he felt a tingling feeling in his soul, secretly feeling that this should be what Wu Zhidong relied on. The famous second-grade Daobao Jiyang soul-suppressing car.
Jiang Mingchuan walked to the palace, nodded to Qin Qian, glanced at the generals in the palace, took a deep breath, and said as usual: "The chariot of the guarding general has arrived a hundred miles away from Yantai Pass. The generals will come with me." Go and greet.”
"Thank you, General, for your understanding!" Chen Haiduan sat behind the long desk, no matter how hot the eyes of others looked at him, he just thanked Wu Zhidong calmly.
Wu Zhidong was also a man who acted vigorously and resolutely. Let's not talk about the matter of taking over the wind and washing the dust. After listening to Jiang Mingchuan, Chen Hai, Qin Qian, Fu Shaoqun and other generals report on the military and political affairs of Yantai Pass, he directly said to Chen Hai: "Jiang Yinzhenjun has regained Mo Zhangling." Since then, three towns have been stationed with heavy troops to guard the border and block the entrance for the Tiancheng Mountain Demon Clan to invade from the south. Over the years, the three towns of Mo Zhangling have also been quite peaceful. However, they have more than enough defense but not enough progress. Only Yantaiguan is still somewhat successful. Capture. And when I took office at Yantai Pass, Mr. Chen was able to go deep into the Demon Realm and capture the heads of nearly 20,000 Rakshasa demon soldiers. He is worthy of being the direct descendant of True Lord Jiang Yin and the leader of our army! If all the generals could be like you, As a guarding general, it will be easy for me to do this."
A handsome middle-aged man wearing a blue shirt stepped out of the Jiyang soul car. No need to ask, this person was Wu Zhidong.
Speaking of this, Wu Zhidong said to Qin Qian: "Qin Qian, as a long history, you are the head of all officials. You should know that once the demon clan goes south, Beiling Fortress and Yanxing Fortress will bear the brunt, and their material supplies will be in accordance with the regulations. The other camps are extremely unfair. From now on, military supplies for Beiling and Yanxing Fortress will be doubled, and any shortage will be shared among the other camps."
"I read what you wrote in your letter. The troops used at Beiling Fortress are different from the past, but they are still very effective in killing demons," Wu Zhidong said. "And Fu Shaoqun is also planning to purchase heavy-bore crossbow equipment. You must also value its benefits. Now that you are in charge of the military supply of Yantaiguan, you must also think about the advantages and disadvantages of Tianji war equipment. Your previous letter was too simple. I hope you can take the time to write a special letter Detailed terms and conditions are provided for my reference..."
The snow that had fallen on West Street for several days had already been cleared away. At this time, an elite halberd soldier stood guard every five steps, revealing a serious and murderous atmosphere.
Xilulu let out several beastly roars, and the convoy stopped.
After saying that, let everyone disperse first.
"Yes, Qin Qian is narrow-minded." Qin Qian said with shame on his face.
"Okay." Qin Qian agreed.
The main hall is a hundred steps deep. The tiger case occupied by the guarding general is in the middle. There are dozens of long cases on each side on the left and right sides. Only the chief auxiliary officials such as the governor of the capital, the chief historian, the army commander, the army general, and the general of the camp are qualified to sit on the case. After the discussion, other people waiting to enter the hall could only stand and discuss matters.
As he opened his mouth, a sparse voice of greeting came from behind. Jiang Mingchuan frowned, turned around and glared, and then his voice became uniform.
After discussing official matters, Qin Qian followed everyone into the back house to talk about the past.
