"Brother..."
Chen Gong rode forward and shouted in a low voice.
"There's no rush, let's enter the camp first."
Chen Wang raised his riding whip to stop what Chen Gong wanted to say.
Chen Wang led the war horse forward slowly, followed by more than sixty fully armed cavalry who also entered the camp behind him.
Long before entering the city, Chen Wang ordered everyone to wear armor. After all, there were many rogues roaming around outside Chunhua City.
Chen Wang and Zhang Waijia had only met a few times, and their impressions were very shallow.
When he was in Xi'an, he met Cao Wenzhao when he served as his personal guard, but they had no verbal communication with each other.
However, when he was in Xi'an, the military discipline of Zhang Waijia's camp was not good, and there were records of looting places several times.
Local officials also impeached Zhang Waijia, but were suppressed.
First, Zhang Waijia himself was promoted to deputy general despite having little military exploits in Liao Town because of his excellent background and strong clan. .
Secondly, most of the Liao soldiers under Zhang Waijia were elite and dared to fight. Hong Chengchou also needed to rely on Zhang Waijia's Liao soldiers to suppress the bandits, so he was a little more tolerant.
Zhang Waijia and Zuo Liangyu also handled things in the same way. They were always quite respectful when facing Hong Chengchou, and neither of them enforced military discipline very much.
Chen Wang had already expected to encounter this situation.
These Liao soldiers had poor military discipline. After Zhang Waijia's death, there was only one general left. It is normal for military discipline to deteriorate to this point.
If he was allowed to lead a group of soldiers in peacetime, the general would probably be able to slowly get him on the right track.
But this situation is not normal, and these soldiers are not fighting soldiers, but broken troops.
To control so many defeated troops requires not only ability, but also courage.
Entering the camp, my ears were filled with loud noises.
However, as more and more people noticed that Chen Wang and others entered the military camp, the noise gradually became quieter.
The military tent in the camp was in chaos. Logically speaking, the camp should be a school ground. What was placed around was not military equipment, but gambling tables and tables with food.
Many people did not notice that the situation at the camp gate was still noisy.
In the center of the school field, two strong soldiers wearing heavy armor were wrestling with each other.
Many people around were waving flags, shouting and applauding.
There is also a wooden table placed in the open area in the center. There is a lot of money piled on the left and right of the table. It seems that a bet is placed on who will win in the end.
There were some soldiers in the crowd hugging a woman wearing red and green clothes, which stood out among the crowd wearing blue and black clothes.
The first thing that noticed something wrong was the group of Liao soldiers facing the camp gate. They saw a group of cavalry filing in.
More than sixty well-armed cavalrymen, riding horses and carrying bows, all wearing frontier armor entered the camp.
The leader wore bright white fish scale armor, a gray silver high-topped helmet, a red turban, and a saber belt at his waist. He was completely different from the rest of the soldiers who were wearing ordinary armor.
Even a fool knows what's going on.
They had received news earlier that they were temporarily placed under Cao Wenzhao's command, and it was said that the new battalion officer would arrive to pick them up soon.
But no one thought that the new battalion officer would come so quickly.
The person with the wink had already knelt down on the ground first, and after a few people knelt down, more people followed suit.
Their actions also made the soldiers watching the fight realize that something was wrong, and then they all understood the situation.
All the Liao soldiers knelt on the ground and did not dare to make any more noise. Although those Yingying Yanyans in red and green didn't know what happened, when they saw the murderous soldiers, they all knelt down too. On the ground.
Chen Wang reined in his horse, sat upright, and scanned the surroundings of the school grounds.
All the noise in the camp has stopped, and all the Liao soldiers have timid looks on their faces, and there is no trace of arrogance or arrogance anymore.
The two soldiers fighting in the center also knelt down, but they were wearing armor and could only half kneel on the ground.
Although Cao Wenzhao was only a general in Liao Town, his reputation was not small.
Although Cao Wenzhao was not from Liao, all the Liao soldiers admired and feared Cao Wenzhao.
Admiration means admiration for Cao Wenzhao's outstanding military exploits and courage in fighting.
There are more than 500 servants under his command who dare to fight. During the Liaodong period and later, the Jin soldiers often fought in the field, and accumulated military merits all the way to the rank of guerrillas, fighting with swords and guns.
During the Battle of Four Cities, Prime Minister Ma Shilong personally gave Shang Fangjian to Cao Wenzhao, and ordered him to lead generals Wang Chengyin, Zhang Shujia, Dusi Zuo Liangyu and others to ambush the dead trees and Hongqiao in Yutian and defeat the Hou Jin Army in the field.
Fear is fear of the military laws formulated by Cao Wenzhao.
Most of the people were from Liaodong, and they all knew that Cao Wen's imperial edicts were very strict in governing the army, and the laws in the army were strict. He often beat them with whips and sticks, and even traveled around the camp with arrows and beheaded in public.
Chen Wang didn't wait long. A rough man wearing a red arrow suit, a red face and a short beard trotted over in a hurry, then knelt down not far in front of him and saluted.
"Zhao Huailiang, a humble official, comes to see the general."
Chen Wang lowered his head slightly and looked condescendingly at Zhao Huailiang, who was kneeling in front of him.
Zhao Huailiang called him "Senior General", probably because he confused him with Cao Bianjiao, thinking that the new battalion officer was Cao Bianjiao.
This person is the commander who escaped from the Liao barracks and is now the manager of the camp.
He didn't know Zhao Huailiang, but strictly speaking, the two were somewhat related, because Zhao Huailiang was also from Guangning and they belonged to the same hometown.
In later generations, transportation was convenient and people circulated widely. It is difficult to understand the rural sentiments of this era.
Compatriots in this era are a very important connection, just like party struggles in the imperial court, which are basically divided according to region, and this is true for the Chu Party and the Zhejiang Party.
When Chen Wang entered the camp, Zhao Huailiang was still hungover. As soon as he was woken up by the noise, his servant told him that the new camp officer had arrived!
Zhao Huailiang was so frightened that he had to leave the tent without even wearing a shirt. Fortunately, several of the guards' servants did not lose their heads. They hurriedly helped Zhao Huailiang put on his clothes and followed Zhao Huailiang all the way to the school grounds.
Chen Wang was not in a hurry to speak, nor did he explain his identity. Instead, he looked around the school grounds again, waited for a while, and then said coldly.
"General Manager Zhao is really good at running the army."
Zhao Huailiang trembled all over. His drunkenness from last night was also frightened away, and he was even more frightened.
The battalion officer was replaced in the camp. When the new officer took office, he usually wanted to establish his authority and intimidate the three armies. However, he failed to restrain the troops, and this time he hit the bullet.
Zhao Huailiang secretly complained that when the previous military order came, Cao Wenzhao's army was still more than four or five hundred miles away. It was only the third day, so why did the new battalion officer arrive so early.
