Chapter 124 Don't Stop After

Updated: 2012-05-23

It has to be said that the trick Li Xian and Cao Cao learned to burn letters is really beautiful. At least from the first day, the soldiers thought that the lieutenant was a good person. Although everyone was worried when Wang Qinian exposed everyone, and even the person named was ready to accept the military law in grief and anger. No one is fool. It is the most common thing for a new official to establish his authority. However, I have to find a few unlucky people to be a chicken and kill for the monkey to see.

But in the end, everyone was surprised to find that there was only one unlucky person, that was Ding Lu's brigade leader Wang Qinian. This brigade leader who was almost fifty years old was easily forced to be loyal to him by Li Xian. Fortunately, Wang Qinian was a person with open mind and not a low vision. He knew that the captain was deliberately asking him to stand on the sidelines. After all, it was a disguised win over. Of course, this kind of win over is not very pleasant.

But Wang Qinian soon thought about it. Who is the lieutenant? He was a fierce figure who dared to fight against the 50,000 troops of Yizhi Wende with his seventeen subordinates. He was a big figure with an unlimited future that was favored by His Majesty. He had already reached the sixth-rank lieutenant at a young age. In a few years, who would know if he would rise to the position of the general in a few years. Although he was assigned by Captain Yan, he could not say that this was an opportunity. If he couldn't walk well, it was a path of slutty. If he walked well, who would guarantee that it would not be a path of Yangguan?

Therefore, after understanding it, Wang Qinian not only did not feel any depressed, but instead devoted himself more enthusiastically to serving the lieutenant. Anyway, he is now a complete villain among the food protection soldiers. Is there any other way to go without holding the lieutenant's thick legs?

Wang Qinian was very powerful and ignored the contemptuous eyes of the robes at him. He arrived outside Li Xian's tent early the next morning to see if the captain had any latest instructions.

After Li Xian finished washing up, as soon as he went out, he saw Wang Qinian standing at the door with a smile waiting for him.

"Is there something wrong?"

Li Xian asked.

Wang Qinian bent down slightly and said, "It's okay, I'm just waiting at the door and see what instructions you have, Lord Captain."

Li Xian was stunned, then smiled and patted Wang Qinian on the shoulder and said, "There is really something to say."

Wang Qinian immediately said: "Sir, just..."

Before he could say the following words, he was interrupted by Li Xian. He patted Wang Qinian on the shoulder and said, "Go to the baggage camp first. If the other guards have all the food and supplies, you can go to the prince-consort and ask when will the supplies from our Zuo Tun Guard be collected?"

"I... don't know the prince-consort."

Wang Qinian said embarrassedly.

Li Xian asked seriously: "What is above your nose?"

"Eye."

"So what's under your nose?"

"Mouth!"

Li Xian nodded and said, "You have eyes and mouths, can you see and ask?"

Wang Qinian was stunned, then nodded and said, "I understand."

He turned around and ran out of the camp and headed straight for the logistics center of the baggage logistics. He saw a flash of smoke floating up, and Wang Qinian was gone. Li Xian was slightly stunned and thought to himself, why did this guy run like a pleasant goat?

Li Xian inspected the camp and went to the resident of the civilians to check it out. He found that their breakfast and food were too different from that of the food guards. Each person only had one bowl of porridge in the morning, without a little dry meal. On the surface, it seemed that the breakfast of the food guards only had one more steamed bun than the civilians on a bowl of porridge, but the key was that bowl of porridge. The porridge the civilians drank could almost reflect the figure. The porridge in the bowl of the food guards was meat porridge.

When Li Xian passed by the civil servant camp, the slutty men immediately stood up and saluted, bent down one by one, fearing and trepidation. Li Xian originally thought he was a person with strong psychological tolerance, but he couldn't help feeling sad when he saw them.

"Add a steamed bun for each of them"

Li Xian turned around and said to the team responsible for supervising civil servants today.

The team was stunned for a moment and said in embarrassment: "Sir, this is a routine in the army."

Li Xian turned around and looked at him coldly and asked, "Is it your Majesty's will?"

"no"

"Is it General Xin Shixiong's order?"

"no"

"Is that the order from which General Lang?"

"Not"

The team's face turned pale, and Li Xian asked him involuntarily lowered his head.

Li Xian slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and said word by word: "You can look down on them or you can not treat them as human beings, but you have to remember that they are responsible for transporting your food, supplies, logistics and supplies. If they are not full and have no energy to work, one day you will also taste the taste of not enough food. The army is about to go to war, and don't want you to go hungry, so just do as I say. I remember yesterday I said, I will no longer pursue your past, but since I became the captain of the grain protector, the regiment will not be allowed to hear the voices of questioning my orders. Not only today's breakfast, they will have to ensure three meals every day, at least, eat enough."

"Here!"

The team responded loudly and walked quickly towards the civilians: "The lieutenant said, each person will add a steamed bun. From today on, your meal will increase from two meals a day to three meals a day, so you can be full!"

When the last two words were shouted out, the civil servant camp was in full swing!

Li Xian looked at the cheering crowd and felt so sad that he seemed to have poured a whole jar of jealousy. How simple are these villagers? They just add a steamed bun and a meal. The villagers have two meals a day and only one bowl of porridge for breakfast. This is indeed a military practice, but Li Xian is not afraid of breaking this practice. As he said, even if it is not for the villagers to eat more food, just for the sake of eating more food, they cannot be hungry.

This time, when the army went on a war, they did not lead many civilians, in order to ensure the speed of the march. After the Zuotun Guard's successive war, there were less than 30,000 soldiers, only 1,400 civilians. It is conceivable how much these civilians have to carry on their shoulders. Goguryeo is mountainous, and many places cannot pass by carriages, and all the supplies are carried on their shoulders. If they have no physical strength, they will be dragging the army's hind legs.

Therefore, Li Xian ordered the increase of appetite for the civilians, which was not only a bad intention to win people's hearts, but also a consideration for the march. Since he is temporarily from Zuotun Guard, Li Xian must consider the future.

Half an hour later, Wang Qinian ran back panting, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Li Xian: "Sir, the prince consort said we can go and transport supplies now."

Li Xian asked with a nod, "Is our Zuotun Guard the last one to receive supplies?"

Wang Qinian said: "No, our Zuo Tun Guard is the second to last to receive supplies. It is said that the Zuo Tun Guard has not received supplies yet."

Li Xian smiled and thought to himself that Yu Wenshu, the general of Zuowei, was Yu Wenshu, who was the biological son of Yu Wenshi, so he naturally had to take care of him. After seeing that the villagers were resting after dinner, Li Xian walked to the middle of the venue and said loudly: "The whole team! Come to the baggage battalion with our lieutenant to transport supplies. Each team and brigade, marched in line in order, understand if you understand!"

"I understand!"

The villagers shouted loudly and stood up in high spirits to find their respective teams. Under the leadership of the team leader of the civil servant camp, a group of ragged-dressed civil servants actually lined up in neat rows and walked towards the baggage camp. Looking at the villagers who left the camp like a long dragon, Li Xian smiled knowingly.

"It's so amazing!"

Wang Qinian looked at the backs of the civilians and praised in the most sincere tone: "The lieutenant took these unruly guys into obedience in just a few words. It's so amazing!"

...

....

Li Xian found Yu Wen Shiji, first stood solemnly, and then performed a standard Sui army salute, and said loudly: "Yan Yun, the lieutenant of the Zuotun Guard, have you seen the prince consort!"

Yu Wenshi gave him a blank look, looked at the soldiers around him, so he raised his hand as if he was looking back, pointed to the mountains of baggage not far away and said, "That is the supply of your Zuotun Guard. You can transport it back after counting it."

Li Xian said: "I still won't count it anymore. I'm afraid that if there are too many, it's hard to explain."

Yu Wenshiji was stunned, then laughed and scolded: "If you don't even leave the pretext, it will be difficult to explain!"

Li Xian chuckled and followed Yu Wenshi into his big tent. After entering, Yu Wenshi pointed to the chair and said, "Sit down and talk, how about it, Captain Yan, who is in charge of a group of grain-protecting soldiers and civilians, how do you feel?"

Li Xian knew that although he might not be angry, he was inevitably a little awkward. A good-looking military captain would not do it and would have to run to protect the grain soldiers to live. It was indeed a very depressing thing for Yu Wenshiji, who was determined to win over himself and become a helper. Fortunately, Li Xian's words still touched him. As Li Xian said, if Xin Shixiong had really relied on Yu Wenshiji's pressure to arrange a military captain for Li Xian, it would be difficult to guarantee that he would not give Li Xian a small shoe when the army went to war in the future.

When the army was expeditioning, anything could happen. Li Xian seemed to have taken a step back, but in fact he took a big step forward.

Of course, Yuwen Shiji was not such a narrow-minded person. He wanted to take advantage of Li Xian's lack of foundation in the army to pull him by his side. Even if he disagreed with Li Xian's approach, he would not show anything at this time. The Yuwen family is the first family in the army. The reason why his father Yuwen Shu was so popular was because he firmly stood on the side of Yang Guang, who was still the King of Jin when he was standing in the team? This is his father's vision. At that time, Gao Ying, Su Wei, Yang Su and other important officials of the Sui Dynasty were all on the side of the Crown Prince Yang Yong. Yuwen Shu chose a King of Jin who was relatively weak. This courage and vision are indeed few.

When Yang Guang was the King of Jin, in order to please Emperor Gaozu Yang Jian, he deliberately pretended to be hard and simple, and eat like ordinary people, dress like ordinary people, try to stay away from the word luxury. At this time, Yuwen Shu spent all his money to help Yang Guang win over the court officials. In order to help Yang Guang fight for the throne, he devoted all his efforts.

It can be said that Yuwen Shu made great contributions to Yang Guang's ascension to the throne.

Therefore, even though he knew that Yuwen Shu was greedy and eliminated dissidents for his private rights, Yang Guang still indulged him. Although he knew that in terms of his ability to lead troops, Yuwen Shu was definitely not an outstanding general among the generals, he still handed over the command of more than 300,000 troops to him.

As Yuwen Shu's son, Yuwen Shihe learned not only the skills of power and conspiracy since childhood, but also the ability to look at people. On that day, Li Xian pretended to be stupid and careful and could not hide it from Yang Guang, but could not hide it from him. That day, Yuwen Shihe found that this young man named Yan Yun should not be underestimated. How could a guy who dared to fight against the Goryeo with more than a dozen people in order to attract His Majesty's attention?

That's why he helped Li Xian.

There are no one around him, and the staff at home are all standing on the side of his elder brother Yu Wenhua and the support he can get from the family is limited, so he must rely on himself now.

"Sir and brother... Why bother to mock me?"

Li Xian said with a wry smile.

After entering the tent and leaving outsiders, Li Xian regained this inappropriate title.

Yu Wenshi was amused by Li Xian's pitiful look and pointed to the outside and said, "The food is definitely enough to be distributed according to real numbers. The food distributed to each soldier is already very heavy, and it is a burden if it is too much. As for armor and equipment, I have added 30% to your Zuotun Guard. No matter how many more I have, I don't have the courage. I will make up for the Zuotun Guard. As for the slow horses carrying supplies, I will give you two hundred more horses."

Li Xian first bowed and thanked him solemnly, and then said seriously: "Five Hundred"

"What five hundred?"

"Stay horses, five hundred."

Li Xian smiled.

"Do you think this is a place for selling vegetables? Can you still bargain?"

Yu Wenshi said with a blank look.

Li Xian took a deep breath and lowered his voice: "Hundreds of more horses, even if they are bare horses, they will run faster."

Yu Wenshiji was stunned, then changed his face: "You are so brave!"

Li Xian sighed: "Shi Ji brother... don't you think so?"

Yu Wenshi was speechless. Yes, isn’t he optimistic about this expedition at all? His Majesty had a whim and ordered more than 600,000 new soldiers to continue to besiege Liaodong City, while more than 300,000 government soldiers who had been fighting for a hundred battles went on an expedition to Pyongyang. However, there was not even a decent map on the Great Sui side! The military map, Liaodong City further southeast, was blank! I don’t even know how to go to Pyongyang. Will this expedition really be as successful as His Majesty hoped?

He sighed and said slowly: "The supply will be moved slowly in a while, and I will wait until the evening to get the horses. There are too many."

Li Xian said in surprise: "Thank you, brother!"

Yu Wenshi waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "You brave little thief, don't say this in the future. If I tell your Majesty what you say, you will be able to take your head immediately!"

Li Xianxin said, how did you know that I am a thief? It’s just that I am not a little thief, but a big thief, a big big one.

Before Li Xian could speak, Yu Wenshiji suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Xian, saying three words very seriously: "Don't break the back!"

Li Xian was silent.

...

...

Both of them knew that if the army was really defeated, the latter would be killed.

ps: The recent chapters are very affordable, all of which are about 4,000 chapters, which are hard-working enough, so I asked with confidence, should I give a red ticket, should I give it or give it?
