Chapter 33 The question shows that the prince asks for the guilt and asks for help from Li Pu

There was already chaos in the Red Phoenix Army, but the men and horses under Kublai Khan had a treacherous atmosphere. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Why hasn't my food come yet?" Kublai Khan looked at Wang Wentong in front of him with chagrin between his eyebrows.

For some reason, since he arrived in Hejian Mansion, he felt that the delivery of backward grain had been much slower, so that the food had not yet been fully arranged, so that until now it was impossible to carry out operations and completely annihilate the Red Phoenix Army.

The soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first, this sentence is not a lie.

In the past, Shi Tianze and Zhang Rou failed because the grain was burned and the logistics were destroyed, and they were defeated by the Chifeng Army.

Kublai Khan did not want to repeat the mistakes of the past, so he kept urging Wang Wentong to gather food so that he could fight smoothly.

Wang Wentong's face was bitter, and he shook his head: "Your Highness." Previously, due to the two armies of Shi Tianze and Zhang Rou, the grain and grass under their control were all exhausted, and there was almost no food in the cabin, and even the rats almost starved to death. How can I get enough food in such a short time?"

Previously, Shi Tianze, Zhang Rou and the Red Feng Army had not subsided in the aftermath of the war, and after the drought, the farms in the fields had no harvest, so there are still a lot of troubles left until now, and this grain is one.

Kublai Khan didn't believe it, and asked, "In that case, how did the Red Phoenix Army survive?"

It's not that he would have such thoughts, but the performance of the Red Phoenix Army was too shocking, with only 10,000 household chiefs possessing troops, they defeated several strong armies, and even fought thousands of miles, even in this Central Plains Heart, it was firmly rooted.

Such an almost miraculous scene certainly shocked Kublai Khan, who thought that his army could do the same.

Wang Wentong was stunned for a moment, his expression darkened, although he wanted to refuse to answer, but under Kublai Khan's questioning, he really couldn't avoid it, so he could only reply: "Your Highness Qiqi, I don't know!"

"Don't know?"

Kublai Khan suddenly frowned, and shouted: "Since you don't know, why don't you follow their example?

Wang Wentong was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied: "Your Highness." The situation of the Red Phoenix Army is special, and we can't follow suit. Seeing Kublai Khan's blank expression, he was overjoyed and hurriedly explained: "With all due respect, it is better to suspend the war and stabilize the situation in the Central Plains first? Why bother to let the Red Phoenix Army mess up our position because of a small loss?"

"Oh, then, do you know how the Red Phoenix Army survived? In that case, let me tell me, how special is the situation of the Red Phoenix Army?"

It's a pity that Kublai Khan was not an idle person, and he ignored Wang Wentong's arguments, but opened his mouth to question it.

"Huh?" Wang Wentong froze, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes before he said, "Your Highness." I don't dare to say it!"

"Don't you dare to say, what don't you dare to say?" Kublai Khan waved his hand, immediately swept away the books and stationery placed on the desk, and asked sharply: "Say! Now, tell me immediately." ”

Taking a deep breath, Wang Wentong had no choice but to reluctantly suppress the thoughts in his heart, and said slowly: "Your Highness." The reason why the Red Phoenix Army was able to take root here was because they could do what others couldn't, so they grew to such a point. As he spoke, he swept over the other party's behemoth body with his eyes, and replied: "And the fundamental reason is to fight local tyrants and divide the land." ”

If he doesn't know anything about the Red Phoenix Army, it is really a lie.

After all, this Red Phoenix Army is now a powerful world, and even the Southern Dynasty also understands it, and the Mongolian army has been defeated by it several times.

With such a prestige, landlords and heroes like them naturally prepared early to avoid falling into danger again.

People who have been tempered in the midst of war have always been extremely sensitive to matters of life and death.

"Fight local tyrants and divide the land?"

"That's right. Crack down on the local tyrants, distribute their fields to the peasants, and ensure that the peasants at the bottom can also survive. As the executor, the Red Phoenix Army was in the middle and obtained enough food. It is with the help of such means that the Chifeng military has grown to such a point. Wang Wentong replied slowly.

In the troubled times, the peasants can only survive, only those nobles have enough strength to resist the war, and further expand their territory and strength, and even rely on force to oppress the people in a place, such as the previous Majiazhuang time.

But the Red Phoenix Army came out, and they swept everything with a force stronger than all the nobles of the family.

Through the redistribution of land, the Red Phoenix Army gained enough support, and the food obtained from the nobles of the family became the fundamental source of the strength of the Red Phoenix Army.

Kublai Khan, the son of the Golden Family and the heir to the Mongol Empire in the future, naturally knew the key to this.

It was precisely for this reason that he only pondered for a moment, and then he realized the reason for all this, and he couldn't help but raise his head, and his eyes were a little angry: "Even so, then why can't I do this?"

"Hmm!" Wang Wentong was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Kublai Khan's cold gaze, he suddenly felt cold sweat on his back, and hurriedly knelt down and begged: "It's not okay, it's really not good!"

Kublai Khan was immediately annoyed, and slapped the table again and shouted: "Why not!"

"Your Highness. The old minister once again implored Your Majesty not to do this, otherwise I may be overturned. Wang Wentong begged again and again, and his hoarse voice was even more embarrassed.

Kublai Khan didn't care, and immediately shouted: "I have limited you to a month, and you must make sure to raise enough food for me, otherwise I will kill you now." After that, the behemoth body was already standing upright, and it showed the inferiority of Wang Wentong's rickety body at this moment.

Pressed by this almost Taishan-like might, Wang Wentong's face twitched again and again, and he didn't dare to have the slightest intention of resisting.

He had no choice but to reluctantly reply: "If this is the case, then the old minister can only do his best." ”

In his eyes, only the robe swept in front of him, although he didn't say a word, but this almost silent response was even more powerful, which made Wang Wentong regret it even more, thinking that he should not be involved in this hook to exterminate the Red Phoenix Army.

It's just a matter of collecting grain from the Mongols, why has it now become its own talisman?

Wang Wentong can't figure it out now!

Sighing, he immediately left the Mongolian military tent, but came to Yidu Province.

This Yidu Mansion is Li Pu's office, and that Li Pu is the son of Li Quan in the past, since Li Quan's death, he has been put into the Mongolian command, has been helping it to conquer the south and the north, and established immortal merits, so it was now the Great Khan was named the province of Yidu Province in the middle of the book, after more than ten years, its land can be said to be full of home, the land of abundant grains, if you ask to take enough food to support Kublai Khan's expedition to the Red Phoenix Army, it is possible to get the support of Li Pu.

It is precisely for this reason that when Wang Wentong went back to consider how to prepare food, he thought of this.

After a long time, Wang Wentong rushed from Hejian Mansion to Yidu Mansion in only seven days, and when he stepped into the palace, he saw Li Pu, who was waiting for him in the ya, and began to pour bitter water: "Alas. This day is really going to kill me!"

"Oh, why did my father-in-law say this? Didn't he suffer some grievances from His Royal Highness the Second Prince?" Li Pu suddenly felt amused, and the corners of his mouth swept up a trace of arc.

It was not Li Pu who deliberately wooed him, but because his wife was the daughter of Wang Wentong, so he had this father-in-law's words.

"Not really. Waving his hand, Wang Wentong rubbed the teacup in his hand, looking extremely annoyed: "It's just that the second prince completely ignored the facts, and even asked me to gather 30,000 loads of grain in a month." He didn't want to think about it, now is not the autumn harvest time, how can I get him enough food?"

Li Pu showed a hint of understanding, and then smiled: "30,000 quintals? I have heard that the land of Hejian Mansion is very rich, and it is irrigated by the Yellow River, so it is an excellent grain producing area, why can't even this grain be scraped together?"

"Alas. You don't know. The land had been preempted by the Red Phoenix Army earlier, and all the farms were controlled in their hands, and the grain had long been hidden, and ordinary people didn't know where it was hidden. I also organized the soldiers to try in vain to take some food from their hands, but the villagers were very fierce, and they did not seem to be weak and deceitful, and they did not know where to get a lot of armor and weapons, and they were all armed, and they were quite forcefully defeated all the soldiers I had sent. ”

The corners of Wang Wentong's mouth twitched, and he was even more annoyed.

It was not that he did not organize the soldiers under his command to collect food, but in the face of these organized villagers, the little soldiers in his hands were useless at all, and they were defeated quite simply.

After Li Pu heard this, he showed a hint of contemplation, and said, "Then didn't you report to the second prince and ask him to send troops to help?"

"I reported it. But instead of accepting it, he questioned my incompetence and thought I was lying. Pouting, Wang Wentong was even more annoyed, and became more and more disgusted with Kublai Khan.

"No wonder. With a hint of ridicule at the corner of his mouth, Li Pu said again: "After all, the Mongolian soldiers are invincible in the world, how can they allow anyone to defeat them?"

"Hehe!" Wang Wentong sneered a few times, "But that's just the past tense." Now that the Red Phoenix Army has risen, it is not their Mongol world. After saying that, he realized the mistake in his mouth, and quickly glanced at the sides, as if he was afraid of something.

After all, he had just called the red thief the Red Phoenix Army, and it was obviously taboo to call him like this.

"Don't worry. It's all my people here, and they won't leak out. Li Pu knew what he was afraid of, and immediately asked: "It's just that depending on what you mean, you don't seem to look down on the second prince?" After all, you are very wary of the red thief in your words, and your understanding is completely more than others. Do you think he's—" The long tail note is completely referential.

was pointed out by Li Pu what he was thinking, Wang Wentong was stunned for a moment, and immediately shouted in a low voice: "What do you mean by this?"

"Nothing. I'm just curious, what kind of existence is that red thief in your eyes?" Li Pu put away his question, but his gaze never took his eyes off.

Wang Wentong was stunned for a moment, his eyebrows tightened, and he thought carefully about everything about the Red Phoenix Army.

From the time he sent his subordinates to collect food and was refused, to the complete defeat of those soldiers by these organized soldiers, and even to the inability to move an inch after that, everything is so real, even more real and believable.

"It was an extremely terrible existence. It is also an existence that will subvert everything. There was fear in his words, and Wang Wentong understood why he was so afraid of the Red Phoenix Army.

Because this is a completely different team, and it is also a completely opposite system to what he has learned and known in the past.

This is really worth paying attention to.

"But they're going to fail, aren't they?" Li Pu said again, "After all, we have the eldest prince and the second prince to help us, and with the strength of the two of them, it's enough to exterminate the red thief." ”

"Maybe. Probably not. Wang Wentong thought about it carefully and compared the strength of the two sides: "Since its birth, this Red Phoenix Army has come all the way from adversity. The resilience of their life force is beyond imagination, and perhaps this time they will win. ”

"Oh, that's a lot of fun!" Thinking thoughtfully, Li Pu said again: "But father-in-law." Why did you come to me today?"

Wang Wentong then remembered the purpose of his previous visit, and replied: "It's 30,000 quintals of grain." I wonder if you will be able to agree?" said this, he showed a little bitterness: "After all, there is so much food, I'm afraid that even if you have two roads, you won't be able to provide it all." ”

"It doesn't matter. Li Pu waved his hand and said: "What the father-in-law asks, how can the son-in-law refuse." The 30,000 loads of grain you desire, I will command them to do it. ”

"In that case, thank you to my nephew. Wang Wentong was overjoyed immediately, and immediately grew up.

He knew that Kublai Khan would do what he said, and if he didn't prepare enough food within the time he should have, he would really wield a butcher's knife.

At this moment, he was able to survive from under the blade, but he really got Li Pu's help, how could he not repay such a life-saving grace?

Li Pu was also overjoyed, and hurriedly walked in front of Wang Wentong, ignoring that he was an earth immortal, stretched out his hand to pick him up, and said: "Why should my father-in-law be so polite? Just because my son-in-law is half a son, I have a deep sword relationship with the virtuous couple, how can I make my father-in-law suffer? I am afraid that my son-in-law will still have many things to understand in the future, but I am afraid that when the time comes, I will need to get more mentions from my father-in-law, so that we can show that we are very kind!"

"Don't worry. If you ask for something, I will definitely help you, after all, the two of us are also in-laws, how can we be so separated?" Wang Wentong immediately laughed loudly, revealing a little joy.

It was his luck to be able to survive under the butcher's knife.

Now, it is a blessing that he can get the support of Li Pu, a powerful local faction, at least when he works under Kublai Khan in the future, there will be no need to have so many obstacles.

Under the eyes of each other, it was obvious that the two had made an alliance.
