Chapter 10 The First Change
After listening to Xiao Rulang's introduction, Wanyan Yuzhuo thought about it and asked again: "Why do our northern soldiers unanimously support Shaanxi?"
She is now Liu Jingxiao's wife, his high-ranking scholar, and is also half a northern soldier. The word "we" makes the three battalion commanders feel much closer.
Liu Jingxiao said: "Shaanxi looks down at the Central Plains and controls Longshu. The 800-mile Qinchuan wilderness is open, the land is fertile, and the food and fodder is sufficient. The swordsmen from Weibei in Guanzhong are brave and able to fight. With a little training, they are capable of fighting. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, those who have won many Guanzhong in the world, such as the Han Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, and Northern Zhou Dynasty. If the southern part of Shaanxi can obtain Shaanxi, tens of thousands of Shaanxi troops can leave Tongguan and take the Central Plains. We will undoubtedly be defeated in the north."
This passage is clear and substantial. Li Heyi and Xiao Rulang both nodded repeatedly. When Wanyan Yuzhuo's eyes were shiny, Murong Xuehai shook his head and said, "Since the Song Dynasty, the world has been determined to be the most important place in the north. Only Ming Dynasty has achieved success in the Northern Expedition. The 800-mile Qinchuan in Shaanxi is not as good as before. It lacks the modern large machine industry, so it is probably difficult to support so many troops."
Liu Jingxiao didn't care about Murong Xuehai's words, but said: "It's just that more than 200,000 troops from both sides of the north and the south gathered in Shaanxi, which made the people of Shaanxi suffer!"
Wanyan Yuzhuo let out a "yo" sound, and his hair was twitching, staring at Liu Jingxiao, and suddenly said angrily: "Jingxiao, you speak softly, and you scare people away!"
Liu Jingxiao and his party were so excited that they were very excited that they didn't care about the things around them. When they looked back, they found that there was no one left in the small restaurant, with only the shopkeeper and a few friends left. They had to smile and pay for the meal.
After a short rest, the group decided to buy the remaining military supplies and return to the camp as soon as possible.
Liu Jingxiao walked in the front and stopped suddenly as soon as she walked out of the store. Guo Junqing also said, "No!"
There were few pedestrians on the street, and everyone was walking in a hurry. It turned out that more than a hundred shops lined up were closed, and the cold wind and leaves in late autumn made them feel a bit bleak.
He blocked a pedestrian at Wanyan Yuzhuo, smiled faintly, and asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"
The beauty scheme really worked. The man stopped and said, "Babuzabu is calling!" After that, he walked away immediately.
These words were like a bolt from the blue, and Liu Jingxiao couldn't help but blurt out: "It's so fast!"
Guo Junqing nodded and said, "Go back to the camp!"
The baggage soldiers who were following were led by Lu Da, the company commander of the baggage company, and Liu Jingxiao led the cadres to ride on the military horses and ran back, anxious, because that was their only little capital.
Fortunately, everything was normal, and when Wang Lie heard the wind, he asked the officers and soldiers to build simple fortifications. As soon as Liu Jingxiao entered the military camp, he saw officers and soldiers building simple fortifications everywhere, while another part of the officers and soldiers were packing their luggage and ready to run away at any time.
However, before Liu Jingxiao's butt was hot, a messenger ran into the command center and shouted: "Chen Zhenlong is here!"
As soon as this was said, Li Heyi remembered the neglect he had suffered yesterday and said, "What are he doing? Let's fight for him, but we can't do it!"
Liu Jingxiao said coldly: "It's good to meet me!"
However, Liu Jingxiao did not show Chen Zhenlong a good look, and did not line up to welcome him. She took a few cadres to see Chen Zhenlong directly.
Liu Jingxiao saluted Chen Zhenlong lazily, and said weakly: "Liu Jingxiao, the infantry commander of the 1st Division of the Dingbian Army of the Republic of China, met Chen Zhenlong, the guardian of the Rehe Special Zone and the commander of the Rehe First Division of the Republic of China!"
Chen Zhenlong was wearing a gorgeous big dress, with two rows of medals hanging on his chest, and some sweat beads on his round face under his military cap, a little suspicious look on his face, his eyes turned, his body was getting fat, and his steps seemed a little heavy, just like a rich man in the countryside. It was just that the exquisite little pistol on his waist made people feel that he had the style of a soldier.
When Chen Zhenlong saw Liu Jingxiao, he was as if he had seen a life-saving straw and shouted affectionately: "Brother Jingxiao, don't notify the old brother when he is here! Come to Linxi with me!"
Unexpectedly, he encountered a nail and Liu Jingxiao replied lukewarmly: "Linxi trade is prosperous, but our army discipline is not good, so I am willing to go with the way!"
This is the original words of Chen Zhenlong who refused Liu Jingxiao to enter the city yesterday. Liu Jingxiao still responded to Chen Zhenlong, but Chen Zhenlong still looked calm and held Liu Jingxiao's hand very affectionately and said, "What are Colonel Liu doing so politely? Jingxiao defeated the enemy in Lingbei and captured countless captivity. The troops she commanded must have been strict in military discipline. Chen admired it very much and was about to find an opportunity to get close to her. Come on! Come on to Linxi City with me!"
Liu Jingxiao still didn't look good: "With a escort envoy to guard Lin Xi, how dare these idle people from our army step into Lin Xi?"
Chen Zhenlong smiled and said like a friend for many years: "What did Jingxiao say? You and I are both in the Feng family, and you protect the Rehe Portal for me, and you have made great contributions. We are all one family... family..."
Guo Junqing spoke from the side: "Thank you for your care of the guardian army, but our army is willing to learn from Dayu's house three times without getting energetic, and rush to the north of the mountain at night!"
Chen Zhenlong cursed in his heart: Xingye rushed to the north of Lingbei? It is true that you want to escape thousands of miles away! I really want to kill Liu Jingxiao, who was under the crime, with one shot, but there is no way, the situation is so powerful! God knows how many troops Babu Zabu brought to fight, you must know that not only most of his own industries are in Linxi City, but the entire army's family is also in Linxi City.
Liu Jingxiao finally spoke at this time: "Please ask the gurus to help me three little favors!"
Three small busy cases? There are only three hundred conditions, and Chen Zhenlong has to agree.
Seeing Chen Zhenlong nodding in agreement, Liu Jingxiao looked at the feet of the officers and soldiers and said, "First, our army is traveling far away to Lingbei, which is very expensive. Please ask the gurus to send us a pair of shoes!"
The requirements for this condition are very low, Chen Zhenlong replied: "Don't worry, Jingxiao, I'll just pull out 50% of my military shoes!"
Seeing Chen Zhenlong's aloof posture, Liu Jingxiao continued: "Thank you, Lord Guardian. Our army has been owing wages for several months. I would like to give each person two pieces of ocean as a reward."
Chen Zhenlong estimated that more than 2,000 people cost about 4,000 yuan, which was not a high requirement, so he agreed, but several cadres around Liu Jingxiao shook their heads and secretly complained that Liu Jingxiao didn't take the opportunity to ask for more things.
Liu Jingxiao said again: "Our army has another task and wants to meet with the friendly forces in Lingbei, so we also ask the escort of the escort army to express our gratitude. Our army can only temporarily stay in Linxi Town for a few days. Wuxia goes out to help with the battle. Please help with food and fodder."
Liu Jingxiao's meaning is very clear. The Dingbian Army only wants to stay in Linxi City for free and eat and drink, and help defend the city by the way. As for high-risk matters such as leaving the city to wipe out the rebels, the Dingbian Army will not accompany him.
However, Chen Zhenlong had no objection to this. The Babuzabu rebels generally did not exceed the strength of one division when they went south to Rehe, which looked like about two thousand people. With Liu Jingxiao's three battalions and two thousand people stationed, plus his own three battalions, more than 1,500 people, a total of nearly 4,000 troops, Linxi City can stabilize Mount Tai.
