Chapter 53: God Has Eyes
"The trick to lure the enemy is to take risks and extremely dangerous things. I believe that Xiao Dahushou can withdraw." Eunuch Wei had no intention of sending troops to meet Xiao's army, even if his nephew studied literature, he was involved.
Abai tried his best to chase and bit Xiao’s army. Even though it caused great trouble and losses to Xiao’s army, it was also biting the bait and swimming towards Sanlipu step by step.
A general succeeded and his bones were bleak. War was such a cruel thing. Even though Eunuch Wei always insisted on putting people first and cherished the lives of soldiers extremely, the cruelty of war had to let him put the casualties of soldiers aside.
Now, he only needs the result.
As long as the Yingbai Banner can be lured to Sanlipu and encircled and annihilated, even if more than a thousand officers and soldiers of Xiao's army can only come back, it will be worth the battle.
"But,"
After several years of training at Xuanda, Xu Xianchun was no longer the straightforward princess grandson, and stole his mother's hand-dressed martial arts to go out. Therefore, Xu Xianchun knew very well about the mission undertaken by Xiao Bozhi's troops and the pressure and consequences they endured. He also understood that sending troops to support him at this time was not a wise move.
The anti-Jin and national salvation army were mainly infantry, and the only cavalry had been allocated to Xiao Bozhi. At this time, if you want to send troops to help, you can only dispatch infantry, and you will inevitably stay away from the camp like Xiao's army.
If there are fewer people going there, it will not pose an effective threat to Jiannu’s cavalry, but will instead fall into the same situation as Xiao’s army. If there are more people going there, how can we arrange the subsequent deployment?
It moves the whole body with one move.
Xu Xianchun's disappointment was not due to Eunuch Wei's failure to send troops to meet Xiao's army, but due to Eunuch Wei's neglect of him.
There is no harm without comparison.
Yang Huan's Dongchang Anime can be used seriously. He led his troops to fight with Jiannu. He was a martial arts scholar, and the Jinyiwei family could not compare with Yang Huan's anime!
A good man, just treat the battle!
Eunuch Wei knew Xu Xianchun’s thoughts, but he hoped that the emperor’s cousin could become an excellent commander rather than an excellent general.
"Brother Xu, those who can lead troops are called generals, and those who can lead generals are called generals. Don't think that our family doesn't need you, but use you lightly. You only ask you to take charge of the camp every day. Seeing that you are using a lot of talents, you don't know that in our family's mind, your emperor's cousin is handsome. It's easy to get a thousand gold coins, and it's easy to find a hundred generals. The only handsome one is rare, Brother Xu."
My father-in-law's words are heartfelt words, and his value for Xu Xianchun is definitely not comparable to others.
The logistics and supplies affairs of the Anti-Jin and National Salvation Army are now coordinated by Xu Xianchun, from the distribution of food and grass, marching and camping, and the arrangement of civil servants' labor service. These things seem complicated, but they are the best at training people and the best at cultivating a person's management ability.
Isn’t it just the word management?
Whether it is the emperor's personal army far away in the south, the current anti-Jin and national salvation army, or the special forces of Pidao and North Korea, looking at it, there are no qualified generals but no excellent commander.
Therefore, Eunuch Wei needs talents and also needs to cultivate talents.
After all, his old man was weak and could not appear in every key location in time.
He needs an assistant who can serve as an assistant who can replace his decision-making and command on his own.
Xu Xianchun, who had passed the Orthodox Martial Arts Examination, trained in Bianzhen, was incompatible with the tradition, and even had a tendency to rebel from the class and cause revolution, was undoubtedly worthy of careful cultivation by Eunuch Wei.
If you don’t care, should you help me first?
No matter what, Xu Xianchun's grandmother is also Shouning's aunt and Shiqi's grandmother.
What's more, they are hardcore eunuchs!
"Don't do things in detail but not do things in small matters, brother Xu, the real hero is to be able to dispatch thousands of troops!"
Eunuch Wei's words are earnest.
Xu Xianchun, I understand.
"The things transported from the south have arrived. Do you want to take a look?" Xu Xianchun said about the batch of armies transported from Yizhou in the morning.
“It’s timely,”
Eunuch Wei nodded. The batch of weapons was ordered to go to the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau when he left the capital two months ago.
Although it was a little late, considering the troubles of shipping and the difficulties that would arise during rushing work, my father-in-law still understood the Manufacturing Administration.
Xu Xianchun asked what the batch of weapons were for. His father-in-law said that once those batches were used, the effect of killing enemies was even more powerful than artillery.
"Can you compare to the cannon?"
Xu Xianchun was half-believing and half-doubted. He didn't believe that those iron tubes could be compared with the Red Cannon.
Eunuch Wei did not explain much. He planned to make two of them, but he saw that the effect was more useful than he said.
Unexpectedly, Shang Kejin came over on the way with a panic look on his face.
"Father-in-law!"
Shang Kejin jumped off the horse in a hurry, but he almost fell down when he was dismounting because he was too panic.
Seeing this, Xu Xianchun was shocked and thought that something bad was coming from Xiao Bozhi's army, otherwise how could Shang Kejin be so uneasy?
"What's the matter?"
Eunuch Wei closed the folding fan in his hand with a light face.
This is what the superiors have to do. As the saying goes, "Don't be shocked by honor and disgrace, but not moves in life and death." At worst, you can lose all your money and go back to sell your wife.
"Dadfather-in-law, big things are not good, there are... some middle-class envoys!" Shang Kejin said anxiously.
Mr. Cousin sent someone here?
Xu Xianchun was stunned. The emperor sent someone to come. Why did Shang Kejin do so in a panic?
"Daddy, the person who came has a bad tone. I want my father-in-law to go and receive the order immediately... The last general... The last general is worried about His Majesty..." Shang Kejin didn't dare to say what happened later, but he obviously wanted to say that the emperor knew about Eunuch Wei's actions in Yizhou. Long Yan was furious and sent an envoy to question him. Maybe the envoy would lock his father-in-law on the spot and return to the capital!
Shang Kejin's concerns are not unreasonable. As for Eunuch Wei's actions over the past two months, what is not enough for Tiqi to take him? Not to mention forcibly tied the envoys of the Governor of Ji Liao and the Governor of Liaodong to the army.
"Dadfather-in-law, why don't you avoid it first, I'll go to see the envoy."
Xu Xianchun dared to take responsibility. He was the emperor's cousin. Although the emperor may not know his existence, his grandmother and princess's identity can still play a certain role in the middle.
"Why should we avoid it? Our family is loyal to His Majesty, so how can we not accept the order?"
Eunuch Wei had a very good mentality and signaled his personal guard to bring the mount, so he would go back to receive the order.
...........
"Brother Qingliu, the one who hit the horse just now was Wei... Wei Yin?"
The idle and bored horse guard had just successfully shot three consecutive floats on the river surface, and saw dozens of riders galloping past like a whirlwind. Who was the leader who was not the eunuch Wei?
"It's him."
Zhou Fen looked at it and was puzzled: "Eunuch Wei is so anxious, what's wrong?"
The two were wondering, and saw several generals under Wei Yin on the north bank in panic and rushed back to Nandaying.
When He Shiyi rode his horse past the two of them, he didn't even say hello.
"What happened! Something must have happened!" Zhou Fenshou said firmly.
"Go and go and have a look."
Ma Xiangde pulled Zhou Tiexin and ran to the camp. Before he could arrive at the central army tent, he saw dozens of expressionless Jinyiwei standing outside the tent. One of the Jinyiwei was holding a pair of shackles locking people in his hand.
All the generals who were rushing to the central army's tent had a gloomy face, and the eyes of the Jinyiwei were also very resentful.
