One hundred and eighth chapter, drive wolf (7)
On the same day, after Xiahou Junjie, who was in the city of Anyang Prefecture, received a letter of help from Cao Lan. Xiahou Junjie said to the military academy where the message was sent: "General Cao is extremely brave, and the military strategists have never had the habit of siege at night. They will send troops to the morning of tomorrow..."
Then he forced the news down. Even Xue Jingxuan only found out after waking up. He was so angry that he cursed Xiahou Junjie in the camp for doing too much, but he had no choice.
After all, this is an internal friction among the Benlei Army. Moreover, Xiahou Junjie did not collude with the Westerners, and the other reason is that it is true that it is not suitable to go to fight at night. Xue Jingxuan cannot catch his braid when he wants to find him.
In fact, since Xue Jingxuan stood up for Cao Lan that day, Xiahou Junjie not only did not expect to promote Cao Lan, but instead felt a little alert: "Do they want to install personnel within my Benlei Army? Take the opportunity to seize my military power?"
Thinking of this, Xiahou Junjie couldn't sleep and eat, so he made up his mind to take this opportunity to fight Cao Lan's subordinates.
But in order to prevent Xue Jingxuan from talking nonsense, Xiahou Junjie immediately sent Wang Huaiyu and Xiahou Minde to "support" early this morning, but he did a lot of work in terms of face.
At this moment, when Cao Lan thought of the scene of Cao Lan's death and injuries after a night of fierce battle with the Westerners, and the stinky face of Xue Jingxuan who had satirized him, Xiahou Minde felt as comfortable as eating a bite of iced watermelon in the dog days of autumn.
"Xiahou Division. When we arrive in Helin Town, if General Cao is in good terms, what should we do?" Wang Huaiyu, the commander of the Boyang Army of the Empire, looked at Xiahou Minde's stinky face, and felt very contemptuous, but a smile appeared on his face and asked.
In fact, Wang Huaiyu is the nominal commander of this marching. He has the right to deal with these issues, but he kicked the ball to Xiahou Minde. After all, if Cao Lan, the tiger of the Cao family, is really forced to make Cao Lan, anything is possible.
"Impossible. The battle last night was fierce. That kid would definitely lose his troops and generals. Even if he still had some strength, he would be unable to resist the pressure of the army! At that time, he would be unable to control him and let him be rampant again." Xiahou Minde smiled.
"Well, you still need to rely on the reputation of General Xiahou at that time." Wang Huaiyu bowed his hand in vain, but he felt a little disdain and a little sympathy for Cao Lan.
Such a hero is still despised and insulted by such a villain. Doesn’t the empire really need heroes today? Wang Huaiyu was worried. He remembered that most of his Boyang army was forcibly locked in the camp by Xiahou Junjie, and his heart was even more bitter.
Although Xiahou Junjie dared not really seize his military power and the tens of thousands of Boyang troops, after all, he was the commander of the Imperial** unit in the case, but he still had to endure it when he was arranged so much. Wang Huaiyu's dissatisfaction with the Xiahou brothers already existed.
Moreover, looking at what Xiahou Junjie did yesterday, if he didn't do it well, he would "dead on the battlefield" and took the opportunity to stop his Boyang army. Thinking of this, Wang Huaiyu had a cold sweat behind him and secretly had a different thought.
~~~~~~~~
On April 15, 999, Helin Town, Anyang Prefecture, Central and Southern Province of the Empire.
Wang Huaiyu and Xiahou Minde watched the detective cavalry run towards Helin Town first, but the town gate did not open. After a moment, the detective cavalry turned back with a look of disappointment.
"Why don't you open the door to welcome us?" Xiahou Minde asked first.
"They said they had to see the commander of the commander before they could open the door." The detective cavalry said.
"Are they blind? Didn't they see that these are all their own people? You can't say anything with your mouth? What are you doing?" Xiahou Minde said angrily, pointing at the detective cavalry and immediately scolded.
"Don't be anxious in the Xiahou Division. After all, it's time for war, and it's right to perform normal procedures. Come and take the command of the Xiahou Grandmaster to call the door." Wang Huaiyu persuaded and handed the command in his hand to the detective cavalry again.
In fact, at the beginning, Wang Huaiyu had to give the detective rider order, but was stopped by Xiahou Minde, insisting that he was here to accept Cao Lan's army, so there was no need to be such trouble.
Now, he was defeated. Xiahou Minde's face was not ugly. The detective was also full of anger. He thought that the Wang Army had to perform the procedures normally at the beginning. You were pretending to be a kid, but now you look at me. It's so annoying.
The detective cavalry took the order and returned to Helin Town. After a while, the gate of Helin Town was slowly opened, and Xiahou Minde took the lead and rushed in surrounded by his personal guards.
Wang Huaiyu snorted lightly, but had no time to care about Xiahou Minde's rudeness. Then he took his subordinates to slowly enter Helin Town. His eyes were closed everywhere, and he saw that although there were traces of blood and war everywhere inside and outside the town, the soldiers were very excited, and the eyes that looked at him were full of hostility?
Wang Huaiyu cried in a bad mood and said to himself: "Xiahou Minde, you pig, don't do too much. It really causes a mutiny from the soldiers and implicates me. I will report it to the military headquarters in truth."
As soon as he entered Helin Town, Xiahou Minde shouted to the soldiers: "Where is Cao Lan? Come and answer the commander's handwriting!"
"..." The Han soldiers around were silent for a while, all looking at Xiahou Minde with a playful look like watching monkey plays.
Cao Lan's two thousand men are now, and it can be said that he followed his old subordinates when he came to Ben Lei Jun. One of them was his direct line. After so many years of operation, although most of the officers and subordinates were transferred by Xiahou Junjie, it was still more than enough to control the two thousand people.
Moreover, Cao Lan treats his subordinates very well and has outstanding abilities. These subordinates truly believe in this unruly division.
After a battle last night, nearly 500 people died in battle. The remaining more than 1,500 people were at this moment a little resistant to Xiahou Junjie who was not rescued. Some officers could indulge them. They even felt a little resentful in their hearts.
At this moment, seeing Xiahou Minde yelling so loudly, everyone deliberately ignored him and was happy to see him appear to be a fool.
"You are all deaf? Where is Cao Lan? Why don't you come out to greet me?" Xiahou Minde was not a fool, so he could naturally tell the joke in the eyes of these soldiers and screamed in anger.
"I don't know which one is deaf. I fought so loudly last night, but I didn't see any support. I was pretending to be a big clove of garlic..." A soldier muttered strangely, and the sound could still be heard by Xiahou Minde.
"You!" Xiahou Minde drew out his sword and pointed at the soldier.
Seeing Xiahou Minde use his sword, the soldiers who had been silent suddenly gathered together and vaguely protected the soldier in the middle. Everyone's eyes were staring at Xiahou Minde. If that gaze could kill people, Xiahou Minde was afraid that he had died thousands of times.
Seeing this, Xiahou Minde was startled. He took the knife back into his sheath and his eyes rolled around. He was a villain, and he was also cheap and arrogant, but he was not stupid enough, and even very sinister. He just now didn't realize that Cao Lan's subordinates were in a wrong mood. He did it on purpose.
According to Xiahou Minde's plan, it is best to arouse a few soldiers and let those soldiers take action first, so that he can deduct Cao Lan a serious crime of not being able to manage the army and indulge his subordinates injuring his robes.
This man's mind was so sinister and cruel that he was completely covered up by his bad words.
But he didn't expect that these soldiers were so united in the same hatred of the enemy that they were actually mutinous in the entire army, which was not what Xiahou Minde wanted to see.
Punishing a soldier who is inferior to the superior and leading a soldier to mutiny are definitely two different concepts. No matter how arrogant Xiahou Minde is, he does not have the courage to do so.
"Everyone has something to say. Don't act like this!" When Wang Huaiyu saw that the situation was wrong, he hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
If you don't persuade you at this time, it is very likely to cause mutiny. The crime of mutiny is caused. No matter what the reason is, everyone will be implicated. At least it will be a severe punishment for the military management that will be severely punished by the three poles.
"Where is General Cao?" Wang Huaiyu asked a soldier beside him in a gentle voice.
"General Cao was seriously injured and is being treated." The soldier bowed.
"There are still such things, please take me to see it." Wang Huaiyu said anxiously, winking at Xiahou Minde.
Xiahou Minde knew that this was not the time to act voluntarily, and saw that the conspiracy had not succeeded, he got off the horse in disappointment and followed Wang Huaiyu to the temporary command center.
~~~~~~~~
"I don't know if the Wang army is coming, Cao Lan is in a farewell welcome." On the sickbed, Cao Lan was covered with bandages, and a strong herbal smell hit her nose, which made Xiahou Minde take several steps, covering his mouth and nose with his hands, and his face showed disgust.
This scene fell into the eyes of the soldiers of the Thunder Army inside the room, and they suddenly felt angry; even the soldiers and generals brought by Xiahou Minde showed displeasure.
After all, everyone is a soldier, so it is not possible to have such a day of serious injuries. Now Xiahou Minde can hate Cao Lan's division and abandon his comrades' robes tomorrow.
"Don't move in Qinglin, you should recover from your injuries. Last night, the general received your request for help, but because it was dark, the road was dangerous. I was afraid that it was the Westerners who led our army into the trap, so I didn't immediately fight. Early this morning, seeing the situation clear, he ordered us to come and help you." Wang Huaiyu comforted her warmly.
"Cao Shi Group, the general said, now you can go back to the camp to rest, and leave it to me and Wang Jun. "Xiahou Minde finally took a breath and opened his mouth, and as soon as he spoke, several of Cao Lan's confidants were glaring at him.
In this way, Cao Lan did not take Cao Lan seriously.
"Well, very good, what else has the coach said?" Cao Lan asked calmly, looking at Xiahou Minde.
"Today's defeat is a shame for Ben Lei Jun. You should reflect on it after you go back!" Xiahou Minde said.
"Two thousand pairs of nearly 10,000 Western coalition soldiers will repel the other side. I don't know how to defeat him?" Cao Lan said softly.
"Just, it was clearly a small number of Western coalition forces that were besieged last night. Otherwise, how could they allow you to report it? You said that you would kill the enemy, why wouldn't you see the prisoners? Cao Lan, you don't have to quibble. If you have something to say to the camp and the general," Xiahou Minde sneered.
"Staff General Guan, what was the situation last night? Tell the people here!" Xiahou Minde turned to Guan Xinpeng.
According to Xiahou Junjie's instructions, if Cao Lan does not plead guilty, he will be called Guan Xinpeng. Guan Xinpeng will help Xiahou Minde to correct Cao Lan. In this way, he will not plead guilty by certifying that all the physical evidence is present.
"Last night, the Western coalition forces were in great power. The Cao army led the way and was seriously injured. He finally repelled the enemy." Guan Xinpeng bowed and rushed to the army inside the house.
"Guan Xinpeng, have you taken the wrong medicine?" Xiahou Minde's face changed and he shouted.
"Xiahou Division, if you can't make a false accusation, what else do you want?" Cao Lan said coldly.
"Just, the commander's handwriting is here, how dare you not obey?" Xiahou Minde sneered at Xiahou Junjie's handwriting.
