Shanhaiguan General Military Mansion.
Inside the hall.
Wang Zhongbi and Qian Neng sat in the north seat together. Wang Zhongbi is on the right and Qian Neng is on the left. On the coffee table between the two of them, there was a copy of the Wu Year List that had just been torn off.
"Wu Nian finally showed his fangs. He published the announcement first to disrupt the morale of our army. Are we still far away from the invasion of soldiers?" Qian Neng's face was extremely ugly, then he turned to look at Wang Zhongbi, his eyes spitting fire and said: "General Wang. It’s just the two of us now. Let’s just spread it out.”
"Since you took office, you have been reselling military supplies and food. As a result, the army now has no combat effectiveness at all, but it has also dropped a lot compared to when Xiong Wuwo was there."
"Wu Nian's army is approaching, can you bear it? If you can't bear it, we will all have to walk around without food."
Wang Zhongbi didn't care at all what Qian Neng said. Anyway, there was a big tree behind him, so he would never be able to walk without food.
"Don't worry, Mr. Qian. I, Wang Zhongbi, also walked out of the mountain of swords and the sea of fire. I hold 80,000 horse infantry and guard six cities and one pass. I am as stable as Mount Tai."
Wang Zhongbi raised his head, puffed out his chest, and spoke with confidence.
"Okay. This is what you said." Qian Neng nodded. After all, he is a veteran on the battlefield, and he has not completely given up on Wang Zhongbi.
No matter how bad this old guy is, he still has three kilograms of iron nails, so now he can only rely on him.
The tigers from Liaodong came to attack with all their might. It’s really no small matter.
Qian Neng left quickly. Wang Zhongbi stood up, strode to the door, and said to the guard in a deep voice: "Give me the order. Let the generals and officers in the six cities get ready. The Liaodong Tigers are coming."
"Just cheer them up."
"Yes." The guard responded and immediately turned around and went down.
Wang Zhongbi nodded, left the main room and came to the study. He sharpened his ink and picked up his pen. After pondering for a long time, he wrote a note.
The content is very simple.
Ask the court for rewards, military supplies, food and grass.
There's a war.
Only when the reward is sufficient will the soldiers fight hard to kill the enemy.
Another good opportunity to line your own pockets.
How could Wu Nian be the God of Killing? He was clearly just a big wallet that brought money.
After Wang Zhongbi wrote the note, he put it to his mouth with a smile on his face, blew it dry, put it in the box, came outside the study, and said to his confidants: "Send it to the court immediately."
"Yes." The confidant responded, picked up the box, and left quickly.
Wang Zhongbi is not a fool. If the enemy does not move, I will not move. The strategy of using the enemy to move us, commanding the 80,000-horse infantry that was still functioning, arranged the entire Nanhai Mansion like an iron barrel, waiting for Wu Liang to attack.
He did not contact the Mengyuan people, but he knew that the Meng Yuan people would definitely save him.
With a solid city in hand and powerful reinforcements outside, what about the Liaodong Tigers? What can you do to me?
Time passed quickly. In a blink of an eye, it’s already the beginning of the year. The entire Nanhai Mansion is like a strong man who has put away his fists and is ready to fight.
But the enemy never appeared. Wang Zhongbi felt like he had been punched on cotton, and he was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.
It’s different from last year.
This year it’s not just cold, it’s snowing. Heavy snowfalls turned the entire city white. The roofs of some people's houses were crushed.
People believe that this year will be a good year for good weather.
General Military Mansion, inside the main hall. Wang Zhongbi was sitting on the right side of the main seat in the north. Qian Neng was pacing with his hands behind his hands, a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face.
"General Wang. According to normal circumstances, after Wu Nian released the list, it was time to launch a thunderous strike. But several months have passed. The rewards, money and food we asked for from the court have all arrived. But Wu Nian seems to be sleeping Tiger, motionless. What on earth is going on?"
"Wu Nian doesn't have any other conspiracy, right?"
Qian Neng turned around and asked Wang Zhongbi.
"Don't ask me about this. I'm not the roundworm in Wu Nian's belly. How can I know what he thinks." Wang Zhongbi shook his head, with a depressed expression on his face. After thinking for a while, Wang Zhongbi hesitated and said: "But according to logic, Wu Nian should attack us."
"The matter of the announcement has caused turmoil to our military and people's morale. It is impossible for him to take action and then take it back. Unless there is irresistible force, Wu Nian has to stop."
"But then again. The enemies Wu Nian faces now are just us, the Meng Yuan people, and the Fusang pirates. Although the Goguryeo people want a piece of the pie, they have not officially turned against Wu Nian. Now these people have not taken action. .Why did Wu Nian stop? What irresistible force did he encounter?"
Wang Zhongbi thought about it and was completely puzzled.
Let’s not talk about Goguryeo and Fusang people. Let’s talk about the north and the south. The Meng Yuan people were powerful, but he seemed easy to bully.
Wu Nian was ambitious and wanted to unify Liaodong. It must develop southward, and Wu Nian did so.
But why did it stop midway?
Isn't this inconsistent?
Wang Zhongbi and Qian Neng were not stupid people, and they quickly thought of a question. He raised his head and said in unison: "Is there something wrong with him internally?"
After the two blurted out, they were stunned for a moment. They were obviously incompatible with each other, but now they had such a tacit understanding.
Qian Neng turned around and covered up his embarrassment. After adjusting his mood, he said in a deep voice: "I think it is necessary to send a detailed investigation to Yingqing Mansion to investigate."
"I am the governor of Liaodong, a civil servant. There is no such talent among my subordinates. Send someone to have a look."
Wang Zhongbi did not refuse this time and agreed: "Okay."
immediately. Qian Neng left, and Wang Zhongbi also ordered his confidants to send out detailed work.
"Wu Nian. What kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?" Wang Zhongbi walked out of the door, turned and looked in the direction of Yingqing Mansion, with a look of suspicion on his face.
I really can’t understand it, I can’t understand it.
.............
The city of Jiang County looked as usual. The porridge factory was still open, and the officials took out a certain amount of grain every day and cooked rice porridge that could hold up chopsticks for the people in the city to live in.
Under the operation of Fuhan General's Mansion, the refugees have been settled. After spring begins, the government will distribute seeds and farm tools to the refugees so that they can farm.
There are very few pedestrians on the street, but almost every pedestrian has a smile on his face. The whole Jiang County is in order.
But in the hearts of the upper-level officials, there is a huge stone weighing them down and making them unable to breathe. This makes the operation of the entire bureaucracy system unsatisfactory.
Household.
The landlord, Sun Sang, was sitting at his desk. There were piles of official documents on the desk, but he was absent-minded. He processed them very slowly and made mistakes from time to time.
The official document was sent back by Liu Zhixing for rewriting. But he didn't care at all, he had something more important to care about.
"General. What happened to him?" Gongsun Sang put down the brush in his hand, stood up and turned to look at the backyard, his face full of solemnity.
No one has seen Wu Nian for a long, long time.
Wu Nian seemed to have disappeared from the world.
What exactly is going on! ! ! ! !
