Lv Wende's Jieshuai Office is located in a mansion in Jiangling City. The corridors are tortuous, deep and long, and I don't know how many yards I have passed along the way. △￠At every doorstep, there are neatly-clad soldiers standing motionlessly.

Of course, Jiangling was not the garrison where the deputy envoy of Sichuan was established. Chongqing was the place where Lu Wende should station. However, Fuzhou east of Chongqing had been controlled by the Mongolian army, and the water traffic between the Song army and the Sichuan side had been interrupted. If we look at it from the map, the Song army's army in Sichuan had been divided into four parts, partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly partly

The key point for the Mongolian army to divide the Song army in Sichuan and Jinghu is Fuzhou. This together with Diaoyu City is the key to the current battle situation in Sichuan.

If the Mongols captured Diaoyu City, they could move their troops to use Chongqing, Luzhou, Chongqing and Luzhou City. The main stronghold of the Song army in Sichuan was the remote lonely city of Jiading, and there was no possibility of sticking to it.

If the Song army seized Fuzhou, it would open up the liaison between Jinghu and Sichuan. The army gathered in Jiangling would be able to go upstream to enter Chongqing, meet with Liu Zheng and Yang Wen's troops, and then go north to fight with Mengge and Diaoyu City.

Therefore, in the past few months, Song and Meng have launched a series of fierce battles around Diaoyu City and Fuzhou. However, the battle ended with the victory of the defensive side, and the Sichuan battle was vaguely at a deadlock.

And Chen Dexing's arrival seemed to have become the key to the Song army breaking this deadlock!

So early in the morning after Chen Dexing arrived in Jiangling, Lu Wende sent someone to invite Lu Shihu and Fan Wenhu to his yamen office.

I don’t know how many porches I walked through. Lu and Fan had already arrived at the festival hall. There were more soldiers under the steps, with wide steps leading directly to the open door. The white tiger screen was placed in the middle, which was the so-called White Tiger Hall.

Lu Shihu and Fan Wenhu are both from the Lu family, so they can naturally go straight to the White Tiger Hall, bypass the White Tiger screen, and then reach the spacious hall. The layout of the hall is not luxurious. A carved and handsome desk is in front of it, and there is a huge wooden picture placed on four square tables put together. Two rows of tables and seat cushions are neatly placed around, and there are incense burners at the corners, which are refreshing fragrance floating in the hall.

The black-faced Lu Wende stood next to the wooden picture, wearing a black gauze and a soft hat, a purple robe and jade belt, and only a goldfish bag was hung on the jade belt. This purple robe and goldfish bag was only used by high-ranking officials of the fourth rank or above. Lu Wende was appointed as the Jiedushi and was a second-rank senior, so he naturally had this honor.

When Lu Shihu and Fan Wenhu saw Lu Wende, they both bowed deeply. Lu Wende just waved his hand and said, "Forgive me, tell me how much the Pili Navy has."

Most of the Song army had empty quotas, but the amount of empty quotas was different. Generally speaking, troops with less empty quotas were elite, while troops with more were weak brigades.

"Uncle, the Pili Navy has never had a vacancy." Lu Shihu answered very affirmatively.

"Never?" Lu Wende raised his eyebrows, "Really?"

"It's true!" Lu Shihu said, "The Pili Navy is very disciplined, and it is beyond the ordinary army!"

“How about training?”

Lu Shihu pondered for a moment and replied: "The Pili Navy was trained harshly, with two trainings a day, one training in the morning from Mao to Wu and one training in the afternoon. One training in the afternoon from Wei to Shen. Before and after the two trainings, they will also preach the righteousness. In addition, there are military schools in the army, specializing in teaching officers..."

"What? There are also military officials in the martial arts school?" Lv Wende smiled, "Is this the one who taught is useful?"

Hearing Lu Wende's question, Lu Shihu just smiled faintly: "The Pili Navy's tactics are special. If you don't teach me, how will the officers command?" He paused, suddenly frowned and said, "There is another thing that is really incredible."

"What's the matter?"

"The Pili Navy did not give any reward before it set out."

"What!?" Lu Wende was stunned and stunned. Fan Wenhu, who was beside him, also widened his eyes: "I walked more than two thousand miles without giving the reward to these eight thousand people?"

The army of the Song Dynasty always used rewards and generous salaries to feed the arrogant soldiers. They had to give rewards before they set out, before they went to battle, and also had to tell us how many rewards they would be given after winning the battle, so that the troops could be coaxed to the battlefield.

"It's true that it's not issued." Lu Shihu shook his head, "The reward given by Xuanfu Department has been transferred to the training fund by Chen Dexing."

Chen Dexing runs a military academy, newspapers, and high-intensity training troops, so he naturally has to spend some money. Of course, he can't pay out of his own pocket, so he can only embezzle other money.

"This is OK? Don't mutiny?" Lu Wende asked with a frown.

Lu Shihu just shook his head: "So my nephew thinks that the Pili Navy is different from the rest of the army in the Song Dynasty. Chen Dexing can really treat them like an arm. The army not only does not mutiny, but also does not even have a complaint."

Lu Wende lowered his face slightly. He was not a rookie who had just changed to the martial arts rank (although he knew a lot of knowledge on paper, he had almost no experience in leading troops). Naturally, he knew that Chen Dexing could mobilize his army for more than 2,000 miles without rewards, but there was nothing wrong with a complaint in the army!

This kind of thing is impossible for even the government to do!

"How did Chen Dexing train troops to lead troops? He could actually lead troops like this?" Lu Wende looked at Lu Shihu with confusion.

Lu Shihu didn't care much. He smiled and said to Lu Wende: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just a great righteousness. He talks about national justice every day, and even commissions a great instructor to teach the soldiers a great truth."

"Talking about big truths?" Lu Wende was skeptical, "Is this... useful?"

"It should be useful." Lu Shihu said.

Lu Wende looked at his nephew and suddenly said, "If you were asked to take over the Pili Navy now, can you hold the troops?"

"Yes!" Lu Shihu said without hesitation, "My nephew and more than half of the generals and officials in the Pili Navy have friendship."

Lu Wende's tone was singular: "What if Chen Dexing refused to hand over the military power?"

"No...no?" This time it was Lu Shihu's turn to be stunned. How did Chen Dexing arrange for him? Of course he knew... Although he wanted to seize his military power, he did not mean to harm him, but to give him a big fortune. What is the purpose of leading troops to fight? Isn't it wealth? Will Chen Dexing want this wealth?

"I hope!" Lu Wende shook his head slightly, and did not mention this topic again, but changed the subject, "Is this Chen Dexing willing to fight?"

"Yes!" Lu Shihu smiled and said, "It's not just willing, it's just a desire to fight. He is determined to recover the entire Sichuan for the official family! I think he is really a loyal minister of the official family and a pillar of the Song Dynasty."

"He is determined to recover the whole river?" Lu Wende's black face was filled with a look of astonishment, "He is serious?"
