As a general under Du Fuwei, Fugong Bing was very capable on the battlefield, but as a commander in chief, he was just a little bit behind.
It wasn't that Xu Yunyan looked down on Fugong Bing, but when Xu Yunyan, Zhai Peng and his party came to Chuzhou, they received a battle report as soon as they entered the Zhechongfu camp.
Fugong Bing gathered 50,000 Tang troops to confront Li Jing, the general manager of the Huainan Road march. However, when the Tang troops heard that the military god of the Tang Dynasty was on the other side, they dispersed that night without even fighting.
There are only less than 10,000 Fugong Bing Tiezhi left.
Isn't this too embarrassing? I was also preparing for a vigorous battle to add a little color to my military medal. I didn't expect that I would encounter such a thing just after I arrived at the Zhechong Mansion camp and before the military power was handed over.
Xu Yunyan was a little helpless, but he had no choice but to obey Li Jing's order and first completely control Chuzhou Zhechong Mansion.
But he couldn't be like just now, when he came to Chuzhou Zhechong Mansion Camp and he was not allowed to enter the gate.
Time was rewinding just a little bit. Xu Yunyan and Zhai Peng's team of fifty Tang Army cavalry drove out of Zhaojiacun in high spirits, heading non-stop towards Chuzhou, a hundred miles away.
This time Xu Yunyan was so arrogant that not only did he become a member of the Tang Army, but one of the pair of cavalrymen also flew a flag.
This is the flag used by the general to command his troops. A big Xuzi is embroidered on it, and it looks so pleasing to the eye.
"This is what a man should do."
Xu Yunyan thought about this and then clamped his horse's belly again and shouted, "Brothers, since we have received the order from the general, we must rush to Zhechong Mansion as quickly as possible. We must not delay the general's affairs."
"Don't worry, Commander, we have taken control of Zhechong Mansion and won't delay anything."
As soon as Xu Yunyan finished speaking, Zhai Peng added something next to him, which made Xu Yunyan's heart completely settle in his stomach.
"Yes, you did a good job. I feel so relaxed having you as my brothers."
Xu Yunyan said such a polite word, which made Zhai Peng extremely excited. He said with a smile, "If other brothers know that the governor praised me, I don't know what they will think."
Zhai Peng complimented Xu Yunyan like this later, and Xu Yunyan was a little surprised, "Is this your only ambition? Do you have to make a living under my hand?"
You can't even think about being a general. A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. "
Zhai Peng was a little embarrassed all of a sudden. This flattery was on the horse's lap. Not only was he not praised by his own governor, but he was taught a lesson by his own governor.
However, Xu Yunyan's harsh words made Zhai Peng restrain himself a little. He honestly led the way here and arranged for the army to protect Xu Yunyan's safety.
Fortunately, this horse is indeed an outstanding war horse in the army. Although it is hundreds of miles away, after going out for lunch early in the morning, before it got dark, the pair of cavalrymen rushed to Zhechong Mansion not far outside Chuzhou City. Camp.
As soon as they arrived at the Zhechongfu camp, they saw a group of cavalry coming from afar. The soldiers of Tang Dynasty who were guarding the door quickly closed the gate of the camp and stood ready there.
Before Xu Yunyan and the others could get closer, a sharp arrow was shot at Xu Yunyan and the others, and was inserted dozens of meters in front of Xu Yunyan's cavalry.
Seeing the arrow stuck in the ground with its tail feathers still trembling, Xu Yunyan hurriedly pulled the horse. The cavalry behind him also stopped the horse and waited for instructions.
However, Xu Yunyan gave no instructions. Instead, he shouted loudly, "What are you doing? Why are you shooting arrows at us?"
Just after Xu Yunyan shouted this, the Tang army guarding the Chuzhou Zhechongfu camp in the distance shouted, "It is strictly forbidden to gallop in the important military camp area."
Look at this and lock yourself out of the military camp, no matter what your identity is.
By the way, these people don't know who they are now. They are the defenders here who are loyal to their duties and do not give Xu Yunyan any opportunity. Xu Yunyan nodded with satisfaction.
Then he shouted to them, "I didn't mean to run around outside the military camp. I am Xu Yunyan, who came to take over the Zhechong Mansion here under the orders of General Li Jing, the general manager of the Huainan Road March."
After Xu Yunyan shouted these words, these soldiers did not say anything. Instead, they continued to wait here.
After an officer who seemed to be a leader made some arrangements for them, he hurriedly ran towards the camp.
It didn't take long to see a group of generals from the Zhe Chong Mansion rushing over, but most of them were captains.
Why did Xu Yunyan recognize it?
There was one next to him. Zhai Peng, who was riding in front because the Tang army refused to let Xu Yunyan in, had exactly the same armor as them. Who else could he be if he wasn't a captain?
After these people arrived at the entrance of the military camp, they saw Xu Yunyan who was surrounded by stars outside and the moon in the center. The troops were hurriedly kneeling down at the entrance of the camp.
"Young man, I have seen the Commander-in-Chief. It was my fault for blocking the Commander-in-Chief outside the military camp. Please punish me."
These teams were kneeling down with a roar. There was a brigade commander directly above the team in Zhongfu, and there was a general above the brigade commander. However, after these teams were kneeling down, no matter what their status was, they hurriedly knelt down. After the sound of a large piece of armor rubbing against each other, all the officials in the Zhe Chong Mansion knelt in front of Xu Yunyan.
Seeing these generals kneeling in front of him, Xu Yunyan hurriedly turned over and dismounted, "What's the point of this? I was just ordered to temporarily take over the Zhechong Mansion. My rank is not as high as that of several of the generals. What's the point of this?" Do you want to break the boy?
Please get up quickly, please get up quickly, and what did you do wrong just now? Such a rigorous military camp is what we and the Tang Army should have. Not only is this unheard of, but it is a great achievement. "
Just when Xu Yunyan said this, these teams stood up happily, leading other people to stand up as well.
Although they heard Xu Yunyan say that his level was not high, who among the people in front of them would dare to think so?
"The team members under my command call you the Commander-in-Chief, and you still say that your rank is not high. Are you kidding me?
Although you, as the governor, may only be temporarily taking over Zhechong Mansion, it is not suitable for your position. But we can't say anything.
You took over Zhe Chong Mansion, you are the biggest.
Who told us that most of our soldiers are in the forehand here? And this team is your new Shangguan's die-hard brother. "
How dare these generals and commanders in the Zhechong Mansion ignore this Shangguan?
With this side deliberately wooing and the other deliberately flattering, Xu Yunyan led Zhai Peng and his team into the military camp.
Not long after entering the military camp and before the generals had gathered to discuss the next thing, a group of fast horses came to Zhe Chong Mansion again and handed over the latest battle report.
