When He Zhang stepped into the lobby of the General Military Mansion, everyone present looked a little embarrassed.
He Zhang's movements were full of majesty, and his gaze was like a wolf gazing at a tiger, with a cold temperament and a resolute expression.
Compared with He Zhang, the generals present may have higher official positions, but they are like ruffians who have succeeded in villainy. It can be said that there is a huge difference.
In addition, He Zhang has been suppressed repeatedly over the years and is closely related to everyone present. After the two sides met, the military attachés in Guyuan Military Town were more or less ashamed and guilty. Naturally, the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
But despite the embarrassment, hostility remains.
In Guyuan Military Town, He Zhang's existence is different. Not only does it make others appear incompetent, it also threatens everyone's interests and safety!
You, He Zhang, are just brave and good at fighting. Why do you need to show off in the limelight? Over the years, we have always had head-to-head confrontations with the Mongols. If we incurred fierce revenge from the Mongols, wouldn't everyone in Guyuan Military Town be implicated? You, He Zhang, always fight against the Mongols. If you become the commander-in-chief of Guyuan Army Town, wouldn’t we all have to fight against the Mongols? When that time comes, how can we still be able to dominate and dominate in peace?
Therefore, the suppression and exclusion of He Zhang has long been the consensus of everyone in Guyuan Military Town!
Of course, He Zhang himself has his own problems. He is not a good-looking, well-rounded person. He is a bit stubborn and arrogant and cannot listen to the opinions of others. Among the generals in Guyuan Military Town, there are not many people who can like him. However, He Zhang never hides his arrogance and disdain, which makes him even more isolated.
At this time, after entering the lobby, He Zhang walked directly to the commander-in-chief Fang Zhenshan without even looking at the people around him, and saluted with a stiff expression: "He Zhang, who is of humble rank, has met the commander-in-chief!"
Seeing He Zhang's attitude, the embarrassment in everyone's expressions decreased a lot, but the hostility increased again. They felt that they had done nothing wrong in suppressing He Zhang over the years.
On the other side, Fang Zhenshan looked at He Zhang in front of him, with a flash of complexity in his eyes.
For Fang Zhenshan, He Zhang's existence is quite troublesome. Although this man's bravery can ensure the safety of Guyuan Military Town, and his military exploits can always make Guyuan Military Town shine, but this man's repeated unauthorized operations will also disrupt the security of Guyuan Military Town. The overall layout even brought Guyuan Military Town into danger! In addition, if He Zhang's military achievements are not suppressed, it will threaten Fang Zhenshan's status sooner or later. However, He Zhang has a high reputation in the military, but he cannot be forced too much. Therefore, Fang Zhenshan has very complex feelings towards He Zhang, and he loves him. Both hated, valued and feared, Fang Zhenshan was the leader in suppressing and ostracizing He Zhang in Guyuan Military Town over the years.
However, the complex thoughts just flashed by, and Fang Zhenshan did not show it. He quickly put on an expression of trust and concern, nodded politely and said with a smile: "General He is here! No need to be polite, sit down and talk. Bar!"
He Zhang nodded and stood up directly to sit down without being polite.
After He Zhang sat down, Fang Zhenshan asked: "General He is guarding Guyuan East Road. You must have received seven official documents from the Governor's Office, right? I was discussing this matter with everyone just now, and I have decided to resolutely carry out the imperial mission." Mr. Zhao had all kinds of instructions, but I don’t know that General He suddenly came to Guyuan camp, but was it also because of an official document from the Governor’s Mansion?”
Although Fang Zhenshan had a sincere attitude, He Zhang's expression remained cold and he said: "Returning to the General Soldier, I also received the official document from the Governor's Mansion, but not seven copies, but eight copies! The first seven copies The official document must be the same as the official document received by the Commander-in-Chief, but the last official document was that the Imperial Envoy Zhao recruited Beizhi to go to Huamachi Camp to assist in the border defense plan. However, Beizhi was affiliated with Guyuan Military Town after all, so Beizhi received the official document. After that, I hurried to Guyuan Camp to seek the advice of the Commander-in-Chief."
Fang Zhenshan was not surprised and nodded: "Although there is no news from the Governor's Mansion, I just received a secret letter from Governor Zhang, which also mentioned a little bit about this matter... But I don't know what General He's attitude is towards this? Do you want to go to Huamachi Camp for business? This time, the Governor's Office only sent a summons to General He, but did not notify Guyuan Military Town. Obviously, it gave us room for maneuver and did not force the matter. What if? If the old general is unwilling to go to Huamachi Camp, we have reason to refuse."
Fang Zhenshan knew He Zhang's temperament very well. He knew that He Zhang had a strong character and could not tolerate any sand in his eyes. He would definitely disdain to work under a corrupt official like Zhao Junchen who had no knowledge of military strategy and had a disreputable reputation.
Perhaps because of this, Zhao Junchen guessed that He Zhang was likely to refuse his summons, so he skipped Guyuan Military Town and sent the summons document directly to He Zhang. In this case, if He Zhang refused the summons, If they summoned someone, they could use the excuse that it was a procedural oversight and Guyuan Military Town had not received the relevant information, thus preserving the face of both parties.
Therefore, Fang Zhenshan secretly waited for He Zhang's rejection, and secretly planned in his heart how he should sow discord between Zhao Junchen and He Zhang.
But unexpectedly, He Zhang did not hesitate and replied directly: "I am willing to go to Huamachi Camp to assist the imperial envoy Zhao! I have now handed over the defense of Guyuan East Road to my subordinates, and everything has been done The arrangements have been made, and all the more than 200 private soldiers under his command have been brought with him. As long as the commander-in-chief agrees to this matter, I will immediately go to Huamachi Camp to die!"
Hearing He Zhang's answer, everyone present was shocked!
With He Zhang's temperament, he was actually willing to compromise and serve Zhao Junchen?
This is incredible!
Did He Zhang change his gender?
Guyuan Zhizhou Zhang Wenqi couldn't help but ask: "As far as I know, General He has always been quite prejudiced against us Imperial Envoy Master Zhao. Now General He is willing to work under the Imperial Envoy Master Zhao. It is really shocking. surprise……"
He Zhang briefly turned his head and glanced at Zhang Wenqi, and explained: "Beizhi did have some prejudices against Imperial Envoy Master Zhao in the past, but after seeing the official documents of Imperial Envoy Zhao, I found that his views were completely consistent with Beizhi, and Beizhi also fully agreed with Imperial Envoy Compared with Lord Zhao's various orders, the past prejudices are nothing... What's more, the imperial envoy Lord Zhao promised his humble position in the official document that after he mobilizes elites from various places to form a new army of soldiers, he will Hand over these warriors to Commander Beizhi! With this new army of warriors, Beizhi can kill more Mongolian Tatars, so Beizhi has no reason to refuse."
Hearing He Zhang's explanation, everyone present was shocked again!
No one expected that Zhao Junchen valued He Zhang so much!
You know, in order to form this new army of soldiers, Zhao Junchen spent countless efforts and took the risk of completely offending the border military attachés from various places. He had to mobilize nearly half of the elites from the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu. This new army of soldiers Once it is formed, it will not only become the main force in resisting the Mongolian invaders, but also become Zhao Junchen's status guarantee! As long as he has this new army of soldiers, Zhao Junchen can subdue the self-respecting frontier generals, and the military and political affairs of Shaanxi and Gansu will be unified as never before!
However, Zhao Junchen actually wanted to hand over this new army of soldiers to Commander He Zhang, who often acted arbitrarily!
In addition to being surprised, everyone present was a little reluctant.
He Zhang's bravery and achievements are, after all, one of the security guarantees for Guyuan Military Town. If He Zhang is lost as a brave general, Guyuan Military Town's combat effectiveness will definitely drop a lot! The most important thing is that after He Zhang made military exploits in previous years, everyone present could share most of them. But after losing He Zhang, where will the military achievements be divided?
Then, everyone present suddenly realized that although they were ostracizing and suppressing He Zhang, when the critical moment came, they could not do without He Zhang.
In addition, Fang Zhenshan had more to think about - if He Zhang was allowed to command the new army of soldiers, he would no longer be able to suppress him.
Thinking of this, Fang Zhenshan persuaded him to stay: "Old General He, you also know that our Guyuan Military Town cannot do without you. Huamachi Camp is the core place on the three sides. There are many important civil and military ministers, and they are unfamiliar with the place. , where General He went, I am afraid that his hands and feet will be tied up and it will be difficult to use his talents, so it is better to stay in Guyuan Military Town."
Hearing Fang Zhenshan's request to stay, He Zhang still had a cold expression and said: "General Fang's words are serious. There are countless capable people in Guyuan Army Town. How can there be too many Zhangs but not too many, and how can there be too few Zhangs too many? How can they be so reused? Just take it. Take last year's war as an example. Without the assistance of Deputy Commander-in-Chief Ma Hancheng and Staff General Wang Ji, how could Hsinchu be able to repel the 500 Mongolian elites? Although only Hsinchu's team directly participated in this war, in the end, in terms of merit, Reward, the humble position is only fifth place in the district. Obviously, it is equally possible to replace the humble position with someone else. The few adults who assist are more important. In this case, what can Commander Fang do if he leaves his humble position and goes to Huamachi Camp? ?”
Obviously, He Zhang was satirizing Fang Zhenshan and others for suppressing him and intercepting military merit.
Because his name was also mentioned, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Ma Hancheng was angry and said: "He Zhang, have you climbed onto the high branch of Imperial Envoy Zhao, and you can't wait to get rid of your former colleagues? Or do you think Guyuan Military Town Nothing can be done without you? If we hadn't cut off the Mongols' retreat last year, and repeatedly threatened the Mongols' flanks, so that the Mongols would not dare to fight you with all their strength, do you think you could really defeat three against one? ?”
However, He Zhang ignored Ma Hancheng's sarcasm at all, and just asked Fang Zhenshan for orders again: "I would also like to ask for permission from the commander-in-chief to let me go to Huamachi Camp to take up my post!"
Seeing He Zhang's resolute attitude, Fang Zhenshan looked extremely regretful and sighed: "In this case, and there is an order from the Governor's Mansion, I won't stop you! I hope General He will lead the army after he goes to Huamachi Camp. Great achievements and a bright future!"
He was blessing He Zhang, but Fang Zhenshan had a hint of evil in his eyes!
After getting Fang Zhenshan's consent, He Zhang left immediately, seemingly unwilling to be in the same room with everyone present.
After He Zhang left, Ma Hancheng couldn't help but ask: "Master General, did you just let him leave?"
At this time, Fang Zhenshan had regained his composure and said slowly: "What else can we do? With the transfer order from the Governor's Mansion and his own willingness, how can we force him to stay?... However, with He Zhang's nature, I will I don’t believe that Zhao Junchen can tolerate him! He seems to have climbed a high branch, but it will be miserable if he falls down! ...Also, prepare a pen and ink, I will send a secret letter to the imperial envoy Zhao, introducing He Zhang in detail His past deeds! Whether public or private, this He Zhang must not be reused!"

Exhausted physically and mentally! Dizzy!
