Chapter 339 Conditions for sending troops

This is what Jang Hyun doesn't like Bae In-ki very much. He knows that Bae In-ki is asking for him, otherwise he wouldn't have given him so much food...

But Pei Renji also deliberately mentioned that he sent troops without authorization, pointed out that he had made mistakes first, and then talked about the affairs of Langya County, which was obviously using a handle to force himself to agree.

Compared to Zhang Xutuo's sincerity and openness, Pei Renji's scrupulousness is indeed offensive.

Although he was very dissatisfied, Zhang Xuan bowed and smiled, "I listen with ease!"

Pei Renji did not realize Zhang Xuan's disgust towards him, so he continued to say proudly: "This time I give most of the food to General Zhang, hoping that General Zhang can be the main force in attacking Langya County."

"Of course, I am willing to solve the problems of the general, but I am too small and only have 10,000 troops. At least 3,000 people have to be left to defend Beihai County. It is unlikely that only 7,000 troops will be able to wipe out the 100,000 bandits in Langya County. And I am worried that Wang Shichong will take advantage of the situation again?"

"Don't worry, Wang Shichong is about to go to Jiangdu to report his work. The news is accurate. Don't worry about Wang Shichong's problems within at least a month. As for General Zhang's army, I understand that I will send 10,000 troops. I will hand over the army to General Zhang. General Zhang actually led 17,000 troops south. In addition, I will mobilize 30,000 civilians to transport food and grass. In this way, General Zhang will definitely not disappoint me."

Pei In-ki's tone began to become a little tougher. He had a letter from the Ministry of War in his hand. If Zhang Xuan continued to push forward and refused to agree, he would directly order him to send troops with the letter from the Ministry of War.

Of course, Zhang Xuan understood the wishful thinking of Pei In-ki and asked him to lead his army to the war. If he succeeded, the credit would be given to the head coach, that is, he, Pei In-ki. If he failed, then Pei In-ki would be blamed on him, and he, Pei In-ki, would not suffer any loss, no matter what he won or lost.

It is not impossible to let him Zhang Xuan lead his army to fight. But he needs conditions, not just a little food.

Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "If Beizhi leads his army to fight against Langya County, Beizhi needs heavy armored infantry to guard Zhucheng County, Gaomi County and defend against the enemy's breakthrough from Gaomi County. I hope the commander can give me the 500 heavy armored infantry."

The five hundred heavy armored infantry are the elite of the Flying Eagle Army. They are directly commanded by Pei Renji. Pei Renji will not use it unless it is absolutely necessary. For example, the last time the heavy armored infantry attacked Langya County, the last time they attacked Langya County, but instead took charge of Licheng County.

Of course, Pei Renji understood what Zhang Xuan meant. Zhang Xuan wanted to take this heavy armored infantry for himself as a condition for him to lead the army to Langya County, but how could Pei Renji agree to this condition?

Pei Renji smiled, "General, don't worry. With me behind the scenes, the bandits will never attack Gaomi County, and I will not let them attack the rear!"

Zhang Xuan cursed in his heart and had to nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I'll feel relieved. Bei Zhi will leave first and prepare for the war. Once it's ready, I will notify the general immediately!"

"How much time does General Zhang need to prepare for the war?"

"This is hard to say, but I will be as soon as possible and will not let the coach wait for a long time." Zhang Xuan glanced at Pei In-ki meaningfully.

Ten days passed in a flash. Although Bae In-ki kept urging Zhang Hyun to send troops, Zhang Hyun always delayed using various excuses to prepare for war and refused to send troops, which made Bae In-ki both annoyed and helpless.

He had no choice. Zhang Xuan was not appointed by him. He would not obey his command. He could not go to the emperor to sue Zhang Xuan for his imperial lawsuit. If he dared to do that, even if Zhang Xuan was forced to send troops, he would definitely be defeated again. He knew the entanglement of interests in his heart.

Of course, Pei In-ki knew the real reason why Zhang Hyun was reluctant to send troops was because he did not agree to give him the 500-held infantry, so he began to procrastinate.

Pei In-ki was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he had no choice but to do anything. No matter what, he just couldn't give the heavy armored infantry to Zhang Xuan, which was one of his most important family backgrounds.

That morning, Pei Renji was considering how to force Zhang Xuan to send troops while the personal soldiers came from outside the door: "Report to the Grand Commander, Xiao Jianjun wants to see the Grand Commander!"

Pei Renji froze suddenly. Many times he almost ignored the existence of this military supervisor, but every time he realized that Xiao Huaijing existed, something that would always happen that was unfavorable to him. Will Xiao Huaijing bring him any ominousness today?

After a while of silence, Pei Renji said coldly: "Please come in!"

Soon, Xiao Huaijing, wearing a white robe and jade belt, quickly walked into the official room. He was not Pei Renji's subordinate, but the emperor Yang Guang sent to monitor the Flying Eagle Army's military supervisor to prevent the Flying Eagle Army from having an attempt to have troops to stand up.

But Xiao Huaijing was not very dedicated. He stayed in Qi County most of the time and rarely went to Beihai County. He never verified some rumors about Zhang Xuan, and seemed to turn a deaf ear to Pei Renji's every move, and wrote reports from time to time to report to the emperor. It is precisely because Pei Renji had a bad relationship with him and the two did not get along well.

Of course, there is another important reason for the bad relationship between them. When Pei Renji replaced Zhang Xutuo, he was highly valued by the emperor Yang Guang, which made him a little proud. He wanted to take the opportunity to drive Xiao Huaijing away, so he secretly sued the emperor and sued Xiao Huaijing for accepting various bribes in Qi County.

But what Pei Renji could not have imagined was that Emperor Yang Guang threw his secret letter in front of Xiao Huaijing and angrily scolded Xiao Huaijing, but in the end he did not transfer him away. Xiao Huaijing thus formed a grudge with Pei Renji.

"It has been twenty days, why haven't Pei's envoy sent troops yet?"

As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Huaijing asked without hesitation: "Pei Jun will give me a reason so that I can report to the emperor."

Xiao Huaijing's rudeness made Pei Renji angry. He restrained his anger and said coldly: "I will naturally make arrangements for how to fight. This is not the right and responsibility of Xiao Jianjun, please don't ask!"

"Of course I don't care how Pei Envoy fights. I want to remind you that the emperor only gives you fifty days to wipe out the bandits in Langya County. Now there are only thirty days left. If the bandits cannot be wiped out within thirty days, I will tell the emperor that Pei Envoy does not want the bandits in Langya County to be wiped out."

“Bad talk!”

Before Xiao Huaijing finished speaking, Pei Renjiteng stood up and angrily scolded Xiao Huaijing: "Thousands of Flying Eagle Army soldiers died in Langya County. I wish I could eat Wang Bo's flesh and sleep with Sun Xuanya's skin. How could I not want to destroy the bandits in Langya County? Please supervise the army and don't make things happen out of nothing, and make trouble for nothing!"

"Is that so? I don't know what Pei Jun thought, but I will report it according to the facts and make the decision."

Xiao Huaijing glanced at him deeply and bowed and said, "Goodbye!"

He didn't need Pei Renji to see him off, so he immediately strode away from the official room.

Pei Renji walked to the door and looked at Xiao Huaijing's thin back and walked away. He felt a split headache. As the saying goes, "I'd rather provoke a gentleman than a villain!" Xiao Huaijing is a villain who is difficult to provoke.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a messenger standing in the yard and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Master General Zhang has a letter."

"Where is the letter? Give it to me quickly."

Zhang Xuan is his life-saving straw. As long as Zhang Xuan is willing to send troops, all the problems will be solved.

Pei In-ki grabbed the letter and hurriedly opened it and read it. His heart suddenly became cold. In the letter, Zhang Xuan said that he was actively training the militia and it would take at least one month to send troops. Please wait patiently.

Pei Renji was so angry that he was so angry that he would have to send troops for a month. Zhang Xuan was clearly perfunctory, no! He was making things difficult for him. He knew that the deadline given by the emperor would come in a month, but he still made excuses like this.

"Come!"

Pei In-ki shouted angrily, and a personal soldier immediately appeared at the door, "Please give me advice!"

Bae In-ki paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, slowly calming himself down. He just wanted to send troops himself and no longer count on Jang Hyun.

But when he calmed down at this time, he suddenly realized that even if he sent troops, he could only send 10,000 troops. If Zhang Xuan refused to hand over the army to him, he would still be defeated. Whether he was the chief general or let Zhang Xuan be the chief general, both armies must be combined into one, and he must ask Zhang Xuan for it.

After all, it was because he refused to hand over the heavy armored infantry to Zhang Xuan.

Pei In-ki sighed helplessly, and it seemed that he had to give in.

A letter to Zhang Xuan was quickly sent to Beihai County at a speed of 800 miles. In the letter, Pei Renji promised Zhang Xuan that he could hand over 500 heavy armored soldiers to Zhang Xuan. If he could wipe out all the bandits in Langya County, then this heavy armored infantry could be stationed in Gaomi County for a long time, but if Zhang Xuan failed to expedition in the southern expedition, he would take back Qi County without hesitation.
