Chapter 284 You Tong's Choice
Zhang Xuan returned to Zhang Xutuo's mansion, which was very quiet. Zhang Xuan walked around the atrium but still couldn't find a figure.
"No need to look for them, they all go to the Heroes."
Zhang Xuan turned around and saw You Junda slowly walking out of the side door. After experiencing a reward storm, You Junda lost weight all over, and his personality became more gloomy and taciturn.
Zhang Xuan smiled and said, "Why didn't Junda go?"
"I won't have much interest in heroes."
You Junda said lightly: "My martial arts is also a matter of making up for my numbers when attending the Heroes' Meeting. It's better to sleep at home."
Zhang Xuan and You Junda have a pretty good relationship. Sometimes they can talk. Zhang Xuan understands You Junda's mood and smiles at him, "Brother You, let's sit down."
You Junda nodded and followed Zhang Xuan to the lobby to sit down. Zhang Xuan asked silently, "Brother You are still thinking about that?"
Of course, You Junda knew what Zhang Xuan was talking about. He shook his head, "It's over, and it doesn't mean to think about it anymore. It just adds to his worries. It's just that the expectations were too great at the beginning, and the disappointment was great."
"If I said that I didn't take this Hu Ben Lang to heart at all, does Junda believe it?"
You Junda stared at Zhang Xuan for a moment and asked in surprise: "Why"
Zhang Xuan smiled and said, "Official position is actually a trap. Although he was promoted to the Hu Ben General, his actual power has not increased. Instead, it will make the emperor start to pay attention to you. Some people with intentions also begin to pay attention to you. If you make any moves, they will immediately impeach you with unscrupulous intentions, want to support troops and become independent, etc. Like a general, he has won several battles, been impeached and suspicious of the emperor, so I would rather be low-key and be more free."
You Junda nodded silently. He could understand what Zhang Xuan said. You Junda sighed softly, "Actually, I just think it is unfair. Although I did not participate in the front-line combat, as the chief general of the rear army, as the chief general of the rear army, I should protect the safety of food and supplies, and send food and supplies to the front line in time to ensure logistics supply. The contribution to the victory of the war is no less than that of the chief general of the front army. I believe that any general leading troops or even the Ministry of War will not be confused. The general also wrote clearly that I was the chief general of the rear army in his letter of merit, but the Ministry of War finally turned a blind eye."
You Junda's eyes became sharper and said coldly: "Someone also said that Jia Wuben and Fei Qingnu were not rewarded either. Why am I unwilling to accept it? This is simply a confusion of right and wrong. Jia Wuben and Fei Qingnu did not participate in the war at all, and I was the chief general of the rear army. The food they ate was sent by me at the risk of my life. Can this be compared?"
Zhang Xuan knew that someone who was referring to was talking about, but actually talking about Qin Qiong. You Junda was very dissatisfied with Qin Qiong, so how could he persuade him?
"Yuan Ding, you haven't been to the Flying Eagle Army for a long time, and it's Jianfu, which is different from us, so you don't know some things, and the Flying Eagle Army actually has a deep dark side."
Zhang Xuan didn't say anything, and waited for You Junda to continue talking.
Some words in You Junda's mind have been held back for too long, which makes him unhappy.
"We knew from the beginning that Pei Renji was here to replace the Grand Marshal. With a person like Grand Marshal who has no background background, how could the superiors ask him to lead his troops and have military power?"
You Junda sighed, "It was also Pei Renji who asked the Flying Eagle Army to fight with the Four Counties that Zhang Jincheng also proposed, but the General of the General of the People's Republic of China did not agree. Because he knew that the militia organized by the local government were all chaotic, the General of the General of the People's Republic of China would be lured to send troops by Zhang Jincheng, so he sent Qin Qiong to lead 5,000 troops to raid Zhang Jincheng's rear army. But for some reason, Qin Qiong was half a day later than the scheduled time, which eventually led to the destruction of the entire militia of the Four Counties."
Zhang Xuan was secretly surprised. You Junda was actually saying that Qin Qiong's delay caused Zhang Xutuo to fail to save the militia of the four counties. Why is this?
You Junda knew that Zhang Xuan had guessed it, and couldn't help but sneer: "I knew he had actually surrendered to Pei Renji in secret, otherwise how could he be promoted to General Xiongwu Lang this time and was still a small lieutenant last year. He was promoted two levels in a year. If there was no one to support him, would he do it?"
"Koro Shixin has also been promoted."
"Luo Shixin was promoted because he was the apprentice of the Grand Marshal. He promoted him to appease the Grand Marshal. My heart was like a mirror. Everyone said that this time the award was personally granted by the Emperor, but how did the Emperor know who should be granted or not who should be granted.
It was because Pei Renji wrote a secret letter to the emperor. This reward was completely based on Pei Renji's suggestion. With the Grand Marshal here, he could still suppress all factions of the Flying Eagle Army. The Grand Marshal was gone. With Pei Renji's selfish intentions, how could he control the Flying Eagle Army? I guess the Flying Eagle Army will be split soon."
"Can Junda tell me the faction of the Flying Eagle Army?" Zhang Xuan asked again.
You Junda nodded and said to Zhang Xuan: "The predecessor of the Flying Eagle Army was the Military Mansion of Qi County. At that time, there were four lieutenants in the Military Mansion, Lao Jia, Qin Qiong, I, and Gan Lingzhi. Lao Jia was the son-in-law of the Yan family, the second wealthy family in Qi County. He was actually the representative of the Yan family in the Military Mansion. Qin Qiong was originally a military officer in Licheng County, and was the former prefect of Qi County, Tang Bi'an, who was inserted into the Military Mansion.
As for Gan Lingzhi, he was introduced by Lao Jia, and he was considered Lao Jia's man. However, he was shot in the battle with Wang Bo. In order to make up for his position, Lao Jia's son Jia Runfu came up, and I am a local tyrant, but I have no backstage and are the weakest one in the Qi County faction."
"Then what," Zhang Xuan asked with great interest.
"In the eighth year of Daye, Wang Bo rebelled in Changbai Mountain, and Qi County immediately became the top spot. We went to encircle and suppress Wang Bo several times, and were defeated repeatedly. It was not until the arrival of the general that the situation was reversed. We led our 3,000 troops to wipe out Wang Bo, kill Sun Anzu, and slaughter Luo Badao. We lost hundreds of thousands of bandits in a row with ten thousand troops, creating the reputation of the Flying Eagle Army."
"Wait a minute"
Zhang Xuan suddenly discovered a small clue and asked quickly: "Why didn't you mention him?"
You Junda sneered repeatedly, "You can't imagine who Fei Qingnu is, he turned out to be our head, General Ying Yanglang of the Qi County Military Office, and was demoted to the lieutenant because of his failure to suppress the bandits."
Zhang Xuan was stunned. It turned out that Fei Qingnu was Zhang Xutuo's ex-boy. He did not expect it, but Fei Qingnu seemed to obey Zhang Xutuo very much, and there was no sign of dissatisfaction at all. It was hard to think that he was the leader of the military palace in the past.
"The only thing Lao Fei admires is the Grand Marshal. He is willing to be driven by the Grand Marshal, but he is not convinced by Pei Renji, so I said that the Flying Eagle Army is going to split, and Lao Jia is not convinced by Pei Renji, but Lao Jia has to listen to the arrangements of the Yan family. If Pei Renji can handle the Yan family, Lao Jia will not have any objection, but Fei Qingnu may not obey. If I was not wrong, the conflict will definitely break out between Fei Qingnu and Qin Qiong."
As the two were talking, a sound of footsteps came from outside, and only Luo Shixin's excited voice was heard, "Brother Zhang, why didn't you go to see the Hero Club? It's so fucking exciting."
"They are back"
You Junda stood up and said to Zhang Xuan: "Yuan Ding, I have something to do tonight. I won't go to drink with you. Let's have a good chat next time."
You Junda quickly left the room, and Zhang Xuan also walked quickly to the yard. When he saw Luo Shixin, Yuchi Gong, Qin Qiong and others, he smiled and said, "I'm too hungry, let's have a drink together, I'll treat you."
Luo Shixin jumped up and said, "Go to Tiansi Pavilion, God, I'm drunk, I'm going to grab the seat first."
He grabbed Qin Yong and ran out. At this time, Qin Qiong looked at the West Courtyard and asked with a smile: "Junda, ask him to go together."
"No"
Zhang Xuan smiled and said, "I invited him just now. He said he had something to do in the evening and wouldn't be with us. Next time."
Qin Qiong was a little surprised, but he didn't ask much, then nodded and smiled, "Then let's go, I'm a little hungry."
Everyone was talking and laughing and walking outside the mansion. At this time, You Junda slowly walked out of the yard. He looked solemn, and he was silent for a moment, then turned around and left from the back door.
You Junda came to a small winery called Ye Jiuxiang near Shangdongmen. A bartender smiled and greeted him, "Is the guest officer alone?"
"I'm here to find a friend, he should have arrived."
"The villain knows, the guest is here to find the third master."
You Junda nodded, "Is he here?"
"The third master is here, please come with me."
The bartender took You Junda to the second floor and came to the innermost room, "Please, Master Third is already waiting."
You Junda hesitated for a moment and walked into the room. A burly man with a burly figure stood up with a smile, "Junda, I haven't seen you for many years."
The burly man was Shan Xiongxin of the Wagang Army. He had become sworn brothers with You Junda ten years ago. The two of them hugged each other tightly. You Junda sat down and asked with a smile: "Old Dan, are you alone, why are you not Li Mi coming together?"
