Hearing Yan Shou's words, Mang Shen also showed a hint of surprise on his face, but at least he was able to hold himself together and said, "Young Master Liang Wei has arrived. Is there any news about my brother?"
Mr. Liang Wei became excited again and said: "I have been ordered by the general to lead the army out to help Mang Da Ziyin fight the Qin people. Now that I am here, and Mr. Yin Yao Ran, I dare to ask where the ministers and others have returned?"
Xin Zhongshou complained secretly: I originally wanted to change the topic and relax the atmosphere, but instead it intensified the conflict. Just as he was about to speak, the elders in the hall loudly announced: "Gentlemen are here!" The guard in the confinement, as if he had been pardoned, quickly stood up and said: "With the help of Mr. Xinling and the nobles of Mangfu, there will be no worries. Come and greet us. ." He stood up first. The others didn't say much, so they all stood up and greeted him outside the hall together. But Jin, Cao, Che, Xiao, and Chen came out from behind the Xiao wall one after another, and then lined up neatly under the wall. The guards and lieutenants of the garrisons clasped their hands on their chests, walked down the steps, and said in succession: "How lucky you are to have gentlemen here, how lucky you are to be here!" Seeing this, the five people also hurriedly stepped forward, but it was Mr. Jin who At the head, Mr. Che took the lead, ten steps apart, and stopped on both sides. The guard in the center and Mr. Che took two steps each and saluted each other. Then naturally there was another routine of politeness, and the guests and hosts came to the hall separately. The three first arriving guests were greeted on the steps, and after another polite greeting, they entered the hall and sat down each. The retainers have already moved to the dining table again.
As usual, toast. After three inspections, the guard in the middle of the gate spoke first and said: "I received the order from General Mang from Mr. Liang Wei, and thousands of soldiers were stationed in the middle of the fence to fight Qin. He also said that Mang's eldest son Yin was in charge of his army, and Mr. Yin was in charge. Not coming. I am frightened and have not been in court for a long time. I do not hear his intentions and my actions are inappropriate. Please teach me!"
Mang Shen said: "Mr. Che of our house has not been out of the city for a long time, so I must know his situation."
When Mr. Che You saw Mr. Liang Wei, he felt a big stone in his heart and was in a very high mood. Seeing that Mang Shen asked him to come forward, he left the table, stood under the table and lowered his hands and said: "We heard from our common people in the east that every city must be defended with one army outside and one army inside, acting as horns for each other. Mr. Liang Wei , after the general gate, he praised the general and showed his courage, generously went to the battle, and personally led thousands of soldiers; Wei Dong sent his eldest son Yin to the civilian army outside the city to support him. The eldest son and Daliang Wei went out of the city in the same boat. Now that Lieutenant Daliang has arrived in the army, but there is no news from the eldest son, the common people are really frightened and don’t know why.”
Mang Shen added: "My brother disembarked from the ship at the north post of the city and immediately went to the army."
Wei Liao said: "On the night when Lieutenant Daliang left the city, Young Master Yin immediately went to the army. The next day, he paid homage to the general, and that night our Young Master led the army to leave the city. Today, Lieutenant Daliang arrived at the military camp outside the Great Wall early. Although Young Master Liang reorganized his army on the way, the move was delayed. , Even in the confinement, why is Master Yin missing?"
The guard in Xinzhong suddenly said: "Master Yin abandoned the boat and landed on the shore. Who is accompanying him?"
Mang Shen said: "Mr. Hu Zhong of our house!"
The guard in Xunzhong pretended to be surprised and said: "But Mr. Hu Zhong is alone? It's a mistake, it's a mistake! When the war is in chaos, how can we keep the young master safe with only one person on guard! Don't dare to be harmed by the thieves... That's right, The Major General said that many of the young men in the army who followed Captain Liang encountered unexpected events not far from the camp... Even if nine people are traveling together like this, two people... are unpredictable, unpredictable! "
Mr. Cheyou said solemnly: "No. Mr. Hu Zhong is wise and courageous. He is not like a humble commoner who is incompetent. He will definitely be able to protect the young master."
The guard in the gate was about to refute, but suddenly he heard Mr. Jin's cough from the table. He immediately came back to his senses, put down his burden, and said quickly: "I'm tired, Mr. Che!" Mr. Cheyou also heard Mr. Jin's words. With a slight cough, I was happy to borrow the donkey down the slope, bowed deeply, and returned to my seat. Zhongshou said: "Mr. Jin came to help Mr. Yin under the order of Lord Xinling. He will surely teach me."
Mr. Jin cupped his hands in his seat and said: "I am a humble concubine, I am here to serve you. Mr. Liang Wei is very young when he goes into battle, and he is very uneasy. Although we are not talented, we are full of blood and spirit, and we are willing to serve you before your death. Even if you die, you will not hesitate." .”
Mr. Liang Wei was stunned when he heard this. Wei Liao Company was busy sitting on his seat and saluted: "I am a great virtuous gentleman in the deepest part of my house! Although the young master of Liang Wei Mansion is a young man, he is a general, and he does not care about life and death. It is a blessing to die in a country!"
Mr. Jin continued: "As I wish, Mr. Yin is in charge of his affairs, and the humble concubines and others are left to work. The young master sits high and the old man has nothing to do. However, Mr. Yin has not arrived yet, and the humble concubines and others are not allowed to take orders. I would like to hear the ambition of the young master. "
Mr. Liang Wei said: "I have been ordered by the general to go into battle, and I should serve the country with my life regardless of life and death. However, I left the city in a hurry, the formation was not organized, and the food and supplies were not prepared. Therefore, I was ordered to go to the camp to get food. I hope to have complete weapons and food. Enrich yourself, march in an orderly manner, kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, then you can fulfill your life's wish."
Mr. Jin was very surprised by Mr. Liang Wei's complaint. He looked at Mr. Cao and then looked at Mang Shen. Mang Shen shook his head slightly, saying that he didn't know anything either. Mr. Jin then said: "May the young master tell me in detail: How many soldiers are there, but how come the troops are not in order and the military supplies and food are not prepared?"
It was okay not to ask, but when I asked Mr. Liang Wei, he choked up and couldn't speak. Wei Liao had no choice but to answer on his behalf: "Young Master went out of the city. When the Daliang policemen were in a hurry, the four gates were closed tightly, and they went up to the city. In the rush, the Young Master did not have time to order the troops, so he used his private money to recruit more than 2,000 soldiers, all of whom were not on duty." Therefore, there was no march; the soldiers had to carry their equipment and grains and went out through the secret passage. There were no carriages out of the city and no leather carriages. There were only a dozen or so retainers in the mansion accompanying them. Although they were slightly tidied up on the way, they could not be said to be in order. In addition, the food was exhausted, so scattered troops entered the confinement."
Mr. Jin became more and more surprised and asked: "Are there more than two thousand soldiers, all scattered troops? Apart from everything you have, not a single baggage? Where is the camp now? How many soldiers are there, how many soldiers are there? How many weapons are there with you? How much food do you have?" "
When asked about the specific matter, Mr. Liang Wei did not hesitate and replied eloquently: "There are actually about two thousand soldiers, three hundred or so of the commanders, ten of the companions, three of the soldiers, and no one above the camp commander. All the soldiers have halberds. 1. One crossbow, and the number of arrows varies from ten to thirty to fifty. Each person prepares grain for one day or two or three days. When he is away from duty and does not return home, he stays under the city, builds his hometown and fields, and makes little living."
Mr. Jin said: "What can this rabble do?"
Mr. Liang Wei said: "I will bear the guilt and wait for the general's orders!"
Mr. Jin and Mr. Cao looked at each other and said: "Master Xinling is leading the army in Nanguan. There are grains and supplies in the area. Lieutenant Daliang is now there, in charge of the military soldiers. Master, please go there!"
Mr. Che You hurriedly said: "No. The young master is now painted by Daliang Zan. He got the general's order and went to the prison. How can he go without getting his order?"
Mr. Jin asked the Shou of Xizhong, "May I ask Mr. Shou, how many days will the grain of Xizhong be available?"
The guard in the confinement said: "Mr. Cheng asked, and I dare to tell you the truth. In the border town, the army is less than a thousand, and there are few people's fields. There are not only fresh armaments, but also little food and fodder. Seeing that there are tens of thousands of civilians living outside, you still have to prepare your own. I have recovered thousands of young masters and soldiers to supply them with grain, which is really a embarrassment."
Mr. Cheyou said: "No. The young master is here under the general's order. Food, fodder, and military equipment should all be provided to the garrison soldiers in the confinement. What can I say about guarding the king?"
The guard in the confinement said: "I don't dare to resign. The garrison in the confinement is less than a thousand soldiers. Now we will add tens of thousands of civilian troops, and then we will get thousands more soldiers. Once they are supplied, they will not last long. Although the general's order will not dare to resign, but Tell your ears based on the facts."
Mr. Jin continued: "Thousands of warriors, their ranks are not in order, their weapons are not prepared, and they are a mob. They must be organized to fight against the enemy. In my humble opinion, it may be that the officials in Daliang who have been re-appointed will go to camp, or they may return to Daliang and return to the army. It will be difficult to use them. Without food and It's a danger. If you go to Nanguan and rectify it, you will definitely become a strong force."
Mr. Cheyou said: "Although, we must wait for the general's order."
Wei Liao took over and said: "There is no military envoy in the army, how can we repay the general? Sir, let him do it?"
The guards and lieutenants of Yanzhong saw clearly that the Liang Wei family and the Xinling Jun family were trying to get rid of the Mang family and wanted to take away his soldiers. Mr. Che You was trying his best to stop them, but it was obvious that they were unable to do so. "Exactly what I want!" Both of them thought so. They were happy to stand by and watch, and saw the opportunity to fan the flames and crowd out the stragglers. They looked at each other with a smile on their faces.
Mr. Cheyou said: "Weishu and Mr. Shen are going to Daliang to report everything. Mr. Liang Wei will not dare to leave anything behind. I hope Mr. Wei and Mr. Wei will be quiet for a while."
Mr. Liang Wei said angrily: "I led the army out of the city, reorganized the army on the way, and sent many envoys to Daliang to report to the general, without saying a word. As soon as Mr. He entered, the order came out! The general ordered the ministers to go to Mr. Yin, and Yin Where is the young master?"
Mr. Che You's face turned red and he said, "I heard from Mr. Wei that the young master went out to battle but did not get the festival charm. The news is not clear, so there is a good idea. Mr. Shen and others will be able to reach the court if they believe Mr. Ling's festival charm, and Everything will work out.”
Young Master Liang Wei still said angrily: "I heard that Mr. Che and Mr. Xiao are the arms and legs of the general, and they are also relied upon for the military of the country and the country. I am willing to get help from you two gentlemen to reorganize the armament. I am willing not to give up!"
Mang Shen said: "Although I have little virtue, I am willing to go to the camp and drive for the prince, but I will obey the prince's orders."
Unexpectedly, Mang Shen would come forward. Mr. Che You, who was still hesitating at first, said hurriedly: "Master He Lao is going out. I and Mr. Xiao are willing to stay in the camp and drive for Mr. Liang Wei."
Seeing that things were not in harmony, it seemed that Mr. Liang Wei had no reason to let the soldiers leave, so he said: "The young general returned to Daliang on the order of Mr. Lingjun. There must be important military and national affairs. How can we miss thousands of soldiers?" That's it. I want you to go to Daliang. Messrs. Jin and Cao are following the orders of Lord Ling to assist Young Master Liang Wei. There is no need to trouble the General's Mansion any more."
Mr. Jin said: "We think that Mr. Shen and others will still return to Daliang according to the original proposal. Mr. Che will be able to unsealed the seal. Mr. Xiao will be able to help the general and benefit the ancestral temple. Mr. Xiao will be able to help the general and benefit the ancestral temple. Mr. Liang Wei is going According to his father, it is righteousness. The army outside the city is well prepared with food, fodder and weapons, and there are ten thousand soldiers. They will surely be able to keep the troops in order and wait for the general's orders."
Mang Shen said, "It's true what Mr. Jin said. Mr. Che and Mr. Xiao each have their own military plans and cannot wait for a while. I would like to serve the young master if I want to leave my body intact."
Xiao Jian suddenly said: "General, I am the eldest son Yin, who is in charge of the military outside the city. Now the life and death of Mr. Yin is unknown. Mr. Shen is lucky to get this. Mr. Yu Yishen temporarily takes over his brother's office. One is to save Mr. Liang Wei from having to worry about him, and the other is The responsibilities of dividing and guarding are divided.”
Mang Shen said: "How virtuous I am, I dare to take charge of my affairs. But I am lucky to be driving for Liang Wei's Mansion!"
Xiaojian's words left the Liang Wei family speechless: Mr. Liang Wei was originally angry with Mang Mao. Even if Mang Yin was here, he might not be willing to be restrained. Now he has pushed a military envoy to take charge of the matter just because he is Mang's family. ?
Wei Liao sneered and said, "Mr. Xiao is very good at making suggestions. However, Mr. Shen has military orders, and it is not appropriate to disobey orders regardless of justice and reason."
