Zhai Ci personally led Wang Meng and a group of county officials to travel several miles to welcome the arrival of the Hongwu army. Seeing that the fierce elite soldiers escorted more than twice the number of their soldiers slowly, the faces of all the people showed obvious nervousness, it is true that the people of Guanzhong are fierce, but the Hongwu Army has also played a prestige, which makes people dare not despise it.

It's just that after the two sides met, seeing the soldier commander in the army marching out, Zhai Ci and the others were stunned. Needless to say, the Hongwu soldiers were burly and powerful, but this soldier commander was actually a pale bearded, full of old age, and even obviously lame, which really surprised them.

The two sides met and exchanged names, and the commander of the Hongwu Army Captain Battalion declared himself Wang Xue, and he didn't care about the obvious surprise on the faces of the people of Xiatai Township.

"A cripple can also be a general?"

Zhai Hu is young after all, and the city government owes a little, so he said the doubts in his heart.

However, as soon as these words came out, the faces of the Hongwu soldiers on the opposite side all changed, and many of them had a strong anger on their faces, and their fingers subconsciously hooked the hilt of the knife at their waists, making the atmosphere suddenly cold.

When the captain named Wang Xue heard this, he didn't think he was angry, and said with a smile: "The king's life is profound, the general is massive, the old, weak, sick and disabled are loyal and righteous, and they will never give up lightly. But if it is contrary to loyalty and righteousness, and does not obey the king's orders, although it is brave and unmatched, it is inevitable that the head of the man will be killed. ”

Hearing this, the faces of all the villagers present were all faintly changed, Zhai Ci stepped forward and glared at his son fiercely, and said angrily: "Your father is old and decrepit, and he can still be rewarded in Xingtai, but the kid is in his prime but he is still lazy in the countryside, and he can't examine his own ugliness, so he dares to talk in front of others!" If you can be like General Wang and lead the tigers to fight the king's affairs, and be mighty in the four fields, even if you are disabled in a hundred battles, you will return to your hometown and have your own father and elders. ”

While speaking, he hurriedly stepped forward to dig deep to the end, and said humbly: "Langyan, I hope the general will not be guilty." ”

Wang Xue stood in place, raised her arms and fingers slightly, and the soldiers behind her restrained their fierce flames, but looked at the frightened Zhai Hu, their eyes were still sharp and unkind.

Although the atmosphere was a little unpleasant because of Zhai Hu's gaffe, Wang Xue did not make a fuss, and the group of people went to the camp that had been slightly opened up on the Jin family under the guidance of the villagers. Although there were not many people in the countryside this time, Zhai Ci did not dare to slack off, and after repulsing his son, he pulled Wang Meng to follow closely behind Wang Xue to introduce him a little.

"Knowing that the Xiongjun army was about to enter the township, the county office also made preparations early, but due to the hasty creation of everything, the camp is difficult to call complete, and I hope that the general will not be guilt......y."

Although he got along with Wang Meng in the past few days, Zhai Ci did not dare to open the dock wall to let the Hongwu army settle in, so he built a camp in the wild, and the hastily built camp was naturally not comprehensive, and he was afraid that this Wang lieutenant would be displeased, gritted his teeth and said: "Even if the labor division is so difficult, I dare not use it because of difficulties, please take the general to rest temporarily, and let me temporarily retire for the army to eat." ”

Wang Xue just nodded after hearing this, signaling Zhai Ci to take it easy, Zhai Ci apologized and withdrew, and let Wang Meng stay with him for a while, while he returned to the dock wall, gritted his teeth and asked people to bring in multiple cattle and sheep as military supplies.

When Zhai Ci left, Wang Xue's not salty and indifferent face turned cordial, and he bowed his hand to Wang Meng slightly, and said with a smile: "Before leaving, General Xiao also specially instructed me, saying that Wang Lang is a general who cares about the young sage, although he is strong, but he may not be widely seen in the villagers and cunning. ”

When Wang Meng heard this, he also gave a deep salute, and said with emotion: "Fortunately, the king can be heavily helped, and the general has come to his aid, and Meng is really grateful." ”

Although he didn't know this Wang Xue before, the fact that he was all from his own subordinates was enough to make him feel close to and respect this disabled but still diligent old man. Taking advantage of the fact that there are no idlers around, he will tell a little about all the things since he entered the township.

Wang Xue also had a good impression of this young man because of Wang Meng's courtesy and arrogance, and sighed while listening: "These Guanzhong villagers have been in turmoil for a long time, although there is no lack of pity in words, but they are also full of treacherous thoughts. Rural politics, it is difficult for my military to help more, but Lang Jun is a general and raises young sages, and he doesn't have to blindly ask for anything if he really can't get along, although my battalion is only hundreds, but it is more than enough to slaughter this township! ”

After Wang Meng heard this, he hurriedly thanked him, and felt a little more down-to-earth feeling of having a strong backer on his back.

Next, Wang Xuecai summoned the camp record room to put out the book and hand over to Wang Meng for a while: "The Hongwu army went deep into the enemy's territory, and there were many things and there was a shortage of materials, and there were not many people who could have helped the county. However, earlier General Xiao led his troops south to Jingzhao and gained a lot, so there was a slight reinforcement on top of the old amount. General Xiao also said that he had great hopes for Lang Jun's former Chen County governance, and hoped that Lang Jun could lay it as soon as possible to help the military ......."

After Wang Meng heard this, he was overjoyed and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, he and General Xiao entered this realm together, and the other party opened the situation so quickly, but he was still trapped in a dock wall, and all kinds of county affairs had not yet been implemented.

Originally, the soldiers of this battalion of Hongwu Army needed to be stationed in the lotus spoon on the east side of Jin's Pi, but Xiao Yuandong also took a little care of Wang Meng, saying that he could let Wang Meng choose a place to settle in the realm according to the needs of the county.

"In the previous wars, the suburbs and counties of Chang'an were also in a shrinking situation, and then the army still swept the surrounding area for the Spring Queen army to open and settle in. In addition, the north slaughters all the puppets, and their outer minions must be pulled out one by one......"

Although Wang Xue served as the battalion leader, he did not know the overall combat objectives of the Hongwu Army in such detail, Xiao Yuandong used his mouth to tell Wang Meng about these strategic objectives, although he did not talk about deliberate care, but after Wang Meng understood this, if he was smart enough, he would be able to combine county affairs with military affairs, and things would be smoother.

Wang Meng listened carefully, and gradually sketched out the general context of the later Western Expedition in his heart. He may not feel it himself, because of the general's special care for him, so although he has not been in the affairs for a long time and his position is not high, the information he can access is very comprehensive, and he has a certain understanding of the progress of the overall situation.

At present, it is still early spring, the weather is unavoidable, and the various departments of the Wang Division are still dormant and recuperating, in addition to going deep into the Hongwu Army of Sanfu, the main task is to build Hedong, a strategic transit station.

On the one hand, it can ensure that the Pingyang Shisheng Institute is completely isolated from the Guanzhong battlefield, and on the other hand, it can greatly improve the efficiency of the delivery of soldiers and materials to the battlefield.

Of course, these general arrangements have nothing to do with Wang Meng, and the last time I lived in my mind, I was only more grateful for the general's strategic planning and strong control of the overall situation.

Combined with the military information that Xiao Yuandong conveyed to him through Wang Xue, Wang Meng clearly realized that the reason why the Hongwu Army went deep behind enemy lines and was active among the three auxiliaries was mainly to divide the entire Guanzhong battlefield into two parts, the north and the south, so that the enemies in the north and south could not strategically echo and cooperate.

The enemies in the north are naturally mainly the puppet Han king Liu Changming and the townsmen and miscellaneous Hu Yicong who are coerced by him. This opponent is actually not very strong, the Xiongnu Tu tribes want to take advantage of the chaos to restore the country, the hope is extremely slim, although the rabble is mixed, but it cannot be condensed into a considerable force.

At this point, even if Wang Meng is not in charge of the military, just by having a little contact with Zhai Ci and other villagers after entering the township, he will understand that the pseudo-Han really does not have much hope.

As for the enemy in the south, it is much more complicated than in the north, Sanfu Haoqiang, especially Jing Zhaohao, has tens of thousands of people at every turn, and the forces are entangled in Chang'an, and there are many powerful tribes such as Diqiang and other powerful tribes around.

And although Wang Meng couldn't be sure, through the various arrangements of the Wang division that he knew, he could faintly feel that the general seemed to have some considerations outside the battle situation, and he had been accumulating momentum. Otherwise, even if the winter is not a good opportunity to use troops, with the broad advance posture shown by Wang Shi last year, even if it is only slowly advancing, it can quickly advance to the outside of Chang'an City and achieve the siege in advance.

But now, it is necessary not only to divide the battlefield and divide the enemy, but also to manage Hedong and strengthen the means and efficiency of troop transportation. This seems to be a sign of gathering momentum in order to rush into the pass in a short period of time.

As for why the general made such an arrangement, Wang Meng was limited by the lack of vision and consultation, and could not judge it for the time being. But after understanding this, he also became clearer about his task, that is, to cooperate with Xiao Yuandong's Hongwu Army to create an isolated area north of Chang'an and divide the Guanzhong battlefield.

At the beginning of his career, he was able to participate in such a large-scale war, although it was just a small role to cooperate with, but Wang Meng felt quite excited when he thought about it.

Compared with the huge Guanzhong battlefield and the entire war cycle, the time and space left for Wang Meng to play are very limited, and even if he does nothing in this, it is not enough to affect the process of the entire overall situation.

But Wang Meng was naturally unwilling to miss such an opportunity, even if it was just within the size, he also wanted to make a splendid article to present to the general, so that the general could understand that he was not looking at the wrong person.

"The army is marching in all directions, early summer as early as the earliest, and no later than July ...... at the latest"

Wang Meng silently thought about the military period in his heart, so that the time left for him to play would not be too long, and there would be more than two months left to play the full battle. If he wants to achieve enough outstanding achievements, he can't be satisfied with cooperating with Xiao Yuandong, but also bring the entire Xiatai County and even some surrounding areas into his rule, and become a large base where the main force of the army can settle in with peace of mind.

More than two months is not a long time, but it is not a short time, if we take into account that it is impossible for the Hongwu Army to concentrate its forces to cooperate with him in turn, with the military strength of Wang Xue's battalion, coupled with the use of the power of the townspeople, it is still a rather difficult task for Wang Meng.

The people of Guanzhong are fierce, and if they want to completely subdue them, they must be both gracious and powerful, if it is a kind of grace to help Zhai Ci sort out the township affairs before, then it is necessary to show his fangs and demonstrate to others.

The arrival of Wang Xue and the battalion made Wang Meng have more power available in his hands, and soon he decided in his heart what to do next. ()
