Chapter 215

The horse team officer Liu He heard Zhao Junsheng's muttering while standing next to him, and stepped forward to cup his hands: "The captain plans to sell all these war horses?"

Zhao Junsheng squinted at him: "Thousands of horses have to spend money to buy fodder and fine fodder every day. If you don't sell them, you will pay for them? Or let your brothers in the horse team mow them every day?" Grass-fed them?"

Liu He smiled awkwardly: "The captain was joking. There are so many horses, and they are all excellent war horses. How can my brothers and I take good care of them? Besides, they only eat grass, and they will lose weight! The subordinates want to say The most important thing is that if the captain wants to sell all these war horses, I am afraid he can only sell them to the army. Except for the financial resources and needs of the army, no one in the surrounding counties has the financial resources, and the generals above will not allow it. The captain sold such an excellent war horse to the people!"

"Well, what you're saying seems to be the case? However, if it can only be sold to the army, the generals above are still desperately lowering the price? Isn't it a big loss for me this trip? If such a good horse is sold For private wealthy merchants, they must be craving for it, but the price can be multiplied several times by the captain of the capital!"

Liu He persuaded: "Captain, that's what you said, but your arms can't hold your thighs!"

Zhao Junsheng was immediately discouraged by these words, he was telling the truth.

Liu He leaned closer and said in a low voice: "Captain, among these horses are several BMWs. I suspect that they should be the mounts of She Lun and several of his generals. There are nearly two hundred horses of between It is a pity that the captain sold all these horses between the top-grade horses and BMWs, and it will be very difficult to find such a good horse in the future!"

Being reminded by Liu He, Zhao Junsheng slapped his head: "Yes, yes, you reminded me well, such a good horse cannot be sold, you go and pick out these horses, and find a separate place to breed them first. Take some concentrate there and feed them every day. Don’t let them lose weight. You choose a few experienced grooms from your carriage team to take care of and serve them! Do this well, and Captain Ben will not Treat you badly, give you a salary increase!"

"Yes, this subordinate will definitely handle this matter well, Captain, don't worry!" Liu He was overjoyed. It is difficult for people in the supply battalion to be promoted. There is no credit to gain, and the establishment is so large that there is no place for promotion. It is also whimsical to want to be transferred to the town garrison army and the Chinese army, and the only way to do it is to find a way in terms of daily board and lodging rationing, treatment and salary.

After retreating, Liu He called a few grooms to come over and start working. He picked out a few BMWs first, and then picked out the horses between the top horses and BMWs one by one.

Zhao Junsheng saw that the horses they selected were indeed stronger and more agile than the other war horses, especially the BMWs. Tall, strong, and their spirit is much stronger than other war horses.

In particular, there is a black horse with shiny black hair all over its body. Zhao Junsheng is 1.8 meters [-] in height. He stands with this black horse, but the top of his head is only level with the back of the black horse. Feeling small, this is the largest horse that Zhao Junsheng has ever seen in his life.

"Good horse, I'm sure this horse must be Shelun's mount!" Zhao Junsheng took the rein and touched its neck.

At this time, a guard at the gate of the camp came over and clasped his fists to report: "Captain, General Wan of the garrison army sent someone to recruit the captain to discuss matters!"

"understood!"

Zhao Junsheng came to the tooth tent of the township camp and found Hua Mulan was there, but her face was not very good-looking. He suppressed the doubts in his heart and clasped his fists to Wan Dugui: "This subordinate has seen the military leader!"

Wan Dugui raised his hand: "Excuse me!"

"Thank you, Commander!" Zhao Junsheng stepped aside and looked at Hua Mulan, who was also looking at him. He saw worry on Hua Mulan's face, but he didn't know what happened.

"I don't know why the military leader sent someone to call his subordinates down?" Zhao Junsheng didn't know what happened, so he decided to ask himself.

Wan Dugui looked at Zhao Junsheng, put his hands on the desk and looked at Zhao Junsheng, and said, "Is it your idea or Hua Mulan's idea to send troops to set up an ambush on Tunzuo Mountain?"

Zhao Junsheng's heart skipped a beat. He glanced at Hua Mulan's expression, but couldn't tell whether Hua Mulan had taken the truth seriously.

The truth has been revealed, but since Wan Dugui asked, he must have doubts, he can only take this matter on himself, minimize Hua Mulan's responsibility, and bowed with his fists folded: "It's the subordinate's idea." !"

Hua Mulan immediately said: "No, military lord, it is the decision made by the subordinates. If you want to investigate, the subordinates are willing to take full responsibility for the crime!"

"Okay, do you think this general can't see it? With Mulan's temperament, under normal circumstances, it is impossible for him to leave Nantianbao alone, unless someone influences his decision! But do you know that you do this? It's a violation of military orders, without military orders you can't attack without authorization, this is the iron law of the military!" Wan Dugui stared at the two with a serious face and shouted.

Zhao Junsheng knew that he couldn't keep silent at this time, he had to speak. Talking might not change the result, but only talking could influence the other party's decision.

"Master, since ancient times, there has been a saying that 'generals are outside, and military orders are not accepted'. Fighting opportunities are fleeting. If everyone sticks to the rules and doesn't know how to adapt, how can we win the battle? And as far as my subordinates know, The victory of many battles is won by the leading generals who make decisions on the fly. The progress of the war will never develop according to the previous expectations, and unpredictable situations will always occur! The leader of the army is the general of the army, you should know these! "

With a sound of "touch", Wan Dugui punched the table and roared loudly: "Of course this general knows this, so I still need you to teach me? The key is that someone in the army is not letting go of this matter now! What do you want this general to do?" What do you do? And you, a little captain of the supply army, why do you always stay in Nantianbao instead of serving in the supply camp? In the words of those who want to get rid of the pigtails, you are leaving your post without authorization!"

Zhao Junsheng immediately defended: "Master, my subordinates took the brothers to escort the food and grass. It happened that the Rouran people attacked Nantianbao. Afterwards, they only stayed for two days. They also helped them build the city wall to resist the Rouran people. They didn't go there. make a sightseeing tour······"

Wan Dugui waved his hand: "Okay, okay, even if that's the case, isn't it AWOL? What do you do? You are the captain of the baggage soldier, and your duty is in the baggage soldier. The reason for helping Nantianbao to build the city wall is because private It doesn't matter, how can a captain who commands more than a thousand people abolish the public for personal reasons? Do you think that I, Wandugui, can help you cover up this matter in Huaishuo Town? Forcibly suppress the dissatisfaction of some people? Even if I, Wandugui, have this Authoritative, there is also An Yuan, the commander of the Jinling Camp, this matter has now been brought to Marshal An, and some people want to use this matter to make a big fuss!"

Zhao Junsheng became a little nervous when he heard Wan Dugui's words. He also knew that this matter would really have to be investigated. He and Hua Mulan had indeed violated the rule of not attacking without authorization. I won't pursue it. If I really want to do this, it will hit the fighting enthusiasm of the generals below. Who will dare to seize the opportunity to attack decisively in the future?

What do An Yuan and Wan Dugui think?Zhao Junsheng didn't know, he only knew that if he was a qualified commander, he would definitely suppress some discordant voices, otherwise, if the hero who made great achievements won the battle because he violated the military regulations, this Wouldn't it be a strong irony if it spread?

Wan Dugui got up and walked in front of Zhao Junsheng and said in a deep voice: "This matter is not big or small, I could go to Marshal An to plead for mercy and ask him to put this matter down, Marshal An will definitely agree to it." I don’t want you who have made great achievements this time to be punished for violating military regulations! However, there is one more thing that makes Marshal An, Tuoba Jian and many other generals in the gold and silver camp very angry , the Rouran people robbed a large amount of food, grass, supplies and horses from our army. In addition to these, there is also a large amount of gold, more than 6000 gold, which is used to reward meritorious soldiers, but now this batch of gold is gone. After defeating the Rouran army, the two of you took over all affairs, and now some people suspect that you have embezzled this batch of gold!"

What?Zhao Junsheng's heart skipped a beat. He had long expected that there would be people who would suspect why the gold had disappeared, but he didn't expect that anyone would dare to suspect this matter on him and Hua Mulan.

Hua Mulan's complexion also changed drastically, and she immediately stood up and clasped her fists and said, "Master, we didn't find this batch of gold at all when we counted and seized it. All the soldiers who participated in the counting of supplies knew it. I don't know what's going on, how can we hold this shit pot on us? Please also ask the army

Master Mingjian! "

Wan Dugui went back to the desk and looked at the two of them: "Of course the general believes you, what about Marshal An, Tuoba Jian and the other generals? Will they believe that you didn't embezzle this batch of gold?"

Sweat dripped from Zhao Junsheng's forehead. He knew that he had to find a way to save himself. If this matter could not be settled, not only would he suffer from this matter, but even Hua Mulan would be implicated!

Greed, really greedy, if he hadn't become greedy when he saw the batch of gold, how could he have fallen into such a predicament?

No, you have to save yourself, yes, you have to save yourself!Zhao Junsheng's brain was running at high speed. He and Hua Mulan were the top leaders at the time. It stands to reason that no one would suspect him and Hua Mulan of the loss of this batch of gold. After all, Hua Mulan returned food, supplies, war horses, weapons and armor to After all the armies, the value of that batch of gold is not as good as these supplies!

Also, according to the principle of private ownership of the captured battlefields during the Northern Wei Dynasty, the spoils seized from the Rouran people, whether they were brought by the Rouran people or snatched by them from the Jinling camp, theoretically speaking, this batch The ownership of the materials belonged to the soldiers who participated in the battle at that time. It was very interesting for Hua Mulan to return those materials to the troops of the Jinling Camp. They still held on to the gold.

Chapter 216 Compromise

Zhao Junsheng suddenly looked up at Wan Dugui, "Master, don't say that we didn't take the gold, even if we took it, so what? As spoils, together with the gold and all the supplies, weapons, armor and bows The crossbow arrows and war horses are all ours. Now we have returned all the luggage that the Rouran people took from the Jinling camp to the various armies. It was originally ours, why talk about taking it privately? They are not afraid of chilling the hearts of the brothers by doing this?"

Wan Dugui's complexion changed slightly, he pondered for a moment and patted Zhao Junsheng's shoulder: "Junsheng, Mulan, these are just excuses deliberately made by some people, do you think they really care about that bit of gold? The gold is piled up into mountains! Their purpose is nothing more than to use this to punish you, which is also because you have been too popular recently, the trees are more beautiful than the forest, and the wind will urge them!"

After a pause, Wan Dugui's tone changed: "Now there is only one way to get you out of trouble, otherwise this matter will continue to simmer, and the longer it drags on, the worse it will be for you!"

Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan looked at each other, and Hua Mulan pondered for a moment, "I don't know how the military master can solve this matter?"

"When the Rouran army approached, our army's vigilance and defense measures had little effect. The reason is that they first pulled out the Tunzuo Mountain Fort, and they rushed too fast, and they launched a fire at dusk. attack, so that the right guard was severely injured, and Marshal An will be held accountable for this incident! We can say that this battle with the Rouran army was planned in advance, so that the Rouran army would fight to Jinling. The camp here is to lure the enemy to go deep, and the two of you led the army to set up an ambush on Tunzuo Mountain, and you are also following orders!"

Speaking of this, Wan Dugui glanced at the two of them, "In this way, first of all, you will not be convicted of the crime of violating military regulations and attacking without authorization; secondly, Marshal An will change from guilty to meritorious, and because of this, he will feel sorry for you." Be grateful and order to suppress all unfavorable words and deeds deliberately aimed at you. Naturally, no one will push the disappearance of gold on you. Those Xianbei generals, which one is not rich and invincible? They don’t really care about the money. Once Marshal An speaks, they will shut up, and no one will trouble you again!"

I understand, I understand everything. Zhao Junsheng is not a little bird who doesn't understand anything. When Wan Dugui said these words, he immediately thought of An Yuan. This incident must have happened because of An Yuan. An Yuan wanted to To change his unfavorable situation and avoid being held accountable, it is necessary to deal with Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan, the direct commanders of this night attack and victory battle. Wan Dugui is just a middleman, so what kind of benefits did he receive from An Yuan? Working hard, intimidating and threatening, and playing a good boss on their side!

After figuring this out, Zhao Junsheng suddenly felt chills all over his body. He found that he didn't know much about Wan Dugui, at least he never knew that Wan Dugui had such a terrifying side.

Zhao Junsheng glanced at Hua Mulan, and Hua Mulan was very angry at this moment, she is a person who can't rub the sand in her eyes, let her turn black and white, open her eyes and talk nonsense to deceive the court, she can't pass the test in her heart.

Hua Mulan clasped her fists and said to Wan Dugui: "Master, I don't need credit, but the soldiers can't give up merit. This is their glory. Many soldiers may not have such a big victory in their entire military career. , Even if this kind of victory is only once, it is rare for them! Also, I can shut up and not take the initiative to tell the truth, but if the court sends someone to investigate, what should I do?"

Zhao Junsheng immediately held down Hua Mulan, clasped his fists at Wan Dugui and said, "Master An, we have agreed to this matter, and we will do what the Lord says. If the imperial court sends someone to investigate, I believe that Marshal An will deal with it." Make it!"

Hua Mulan got angry and called out, "Brother Junsheng!"

Zhao Junsheng raised his palm to signal Hua Mulan to be calm and calm her down.

Wan Dugui looked at the two of them and nodded: "Okay, I will help you mediate this matter! If you report to the court as I said just now, your credit will be reduced a lot. I believe that General An is willing Do you have any other requests to compensate you from other aspects? As long as it is not excessive, this general will try his best to facilitate it."

Zhao Junsheng shook his head: "For credits, rewards, etc., please ask the military master to watch over and give them. There is only one subordinate."

Little request! "
