Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 992

"Hou Junji is a straight mother thief!"

As soon as Cheng Yaojin led the Liangzhou Hexi Army into Lanzhou, Xue Wanche, the governor of Lanzhou, handed him an order.The order of the crown prince from Haiyan Fort in Longyou ordered Cheng Yaojin and Xue Wanche to rush to the Shenwei Military City of Haiyan Prefecture to assemble within a time limit.

Cheng Yaojin received the prince's order, and the deadline given was just yesterday.

Unless the Hexi Army directly crossed the Qilian Snow Mountain, it would be impossible to arrive within the time limit with a normal march.

Xue Wanche used to be at odds with Cheng Yaojin. Xue used to be the general who built the East Palace, and earlier he was with Luo Yi in Youzhou. Old Cheng used to be with Wagang Li Mi, and later with Qin Wang Li Shimin.If we talk about it in detail, Xue Wanche is the son of Xue Shixiong, the great general of the Sui Dynasty.

Although the old Cheng's family was not a poor family, but in Cheng Yaojin's generation, they could only be local tyrants in the countryside. Both of them were famous for their bravery, but they didn't see each other well.

During the Battle of Longyou back then, the two had a lot of rivalry because of the coach Qin Lang.

Xue Wanche heard Cheng Yaojin scolding Hou Junji directly in front of him, but laughed a few times, "That damned bastard Hou Junji."

The order was given by the crown prince, but both of them were scolding Hou Junji.

Without him, it must be that Hou Junji borrowed the crown prince's orders, or bewitched the crown prince.

Although both of them vaguely knew that the prince had become more and more mischievous in the past two years, they couldn't blame the prince, so naturally they had to blame Hou Junji.

Cheng Yaojin, governor of Hexi Qizhou, and Xue Wanche, governor of half of Longyou, Lanhe, Kuoshan, two great generals who didn't see each other at first, but at this moment they rarely see each other because they both despise Hou Junji. Just pinch.

"Where is the prince now?"

"The prince's order was sent from Haiyan Fort, and it should be in Shenwei Military City now." Xue Wanche said, this General Xue fought very bravely, he led the troops to fight a big defeat or a big victory, the outcome is unpredictable From following his father Xue Shixiong back then, to following Luo Yi, then to Tou Jiancheng, and then to joining Li Shimin, Xue Wanche has indeed fought many battles, and won many battles, but his defeat is probably the No. 1 among the famous generals today. [-].

Back then, the brothers who were known as the eight tigers of the Xue family followed Luo Yi to fight Liu Heimai, but they were all captured on the battlefield, and even their hair was shaved. Fortunately, these brothers were also fierce, and they were escorted back on the battlefield Sometimes, they can just violently kill people, snatch weapons, cut open tendons, and then snatch horses and gallop back.

Qin Lang once talked about Xue Wanche with Cheng Yaojin, Su Dingfang and other Longyou generals. He said that Xue Yonghan was absolutely superior in leading troops to charge into battle. It was a shortcoming in strategy. Assault generals, but the strategy and strategy are not good, the army has rich experience, and there is a way to lead troops, there is nothing to say in this regard.

Therefore, Xue Wanche needs to be paired with a wise general. For example, if he is paired with a stable general like Li Jing and Chai Shao, he can exert incomparable power and is the sharpest knife.

If you partner with generals like Luo Yi and Yu Chigong, you will be indomitable and you will not lose easily, but if you are designed, you will be defeated.

"Why didn't you rush over immediately after receiving the order from the prince?"

Old Xue snorted, "Hou Junji is an idiot, he also wants to command grandpa at will?"

Old Cheng chuckled, "Hou Junji is the Minister of Political Affairs."

"The former minister, but not now, the title of Tongzhong Shumen's Pingzhangshi is gone, and the title of Minister of the Ministry of Officials is also gone. He is now the chief officer of the Qinghai Road Marching Army." Old Xue disagreed.

"Isn't the Chief Chief of the Qinghai Road Marching enough?"

"He's the general manager of his Qinghai Road march. Grandpa, I'm the governor of Lanzhou in Longyou Road. It's irrelevant. Why should he command Grandpa?"

Old Cheng knew that the surnamed Hou now had the emperor's will in hand, so of course he could mobilize Helong's troops in a controlled manner, "Is the Lanzhou army ready?"

Xue Wanche's face was not very good-looking. Although he was not the governor of Lanzhou, he was not the governor of the entire Longyou Dao, but he also supervised the four important states in the west of Longyou Dao, Lanhe Kuoshan.In recent years, the imperial court has stationed many troops in Longyou, just to frighten Tuyuhun and stabilize the newly seized land of [-] li that was swallowed up earlier. Come down, and later set up many new armies one after another.

From an army of 2000 people to an army of 5000 people, among them, the four prefectures under the command of the Lanzhou Dudufu, together with the states granted by the heroes on behalf of the leader, the Lanzhou Dudufu commanded [-] armies under the name of the Dudufu, with a strength of [-]. The strength of the remaining people is even higher than that of Liangzhou Army in Hexi.

The governors of Diezhou and Minzhou are not as strong as Lanzhou.

Moreover, in recent years, the imperial court also plans to add another Eighth Army in Hexi, Longyou. Regarding the garrison of the Eighth Army, Longyou and Hexi are all fighting, and even the three capitals of Lan, Min, and Die in Longyou are also fighting. Although the final decision has not yet been made, the Lanzhou Governor's Mansion is close to Qinghai and has an important location. At least it can win the three armies or even more.

With such strength, of course Xue Wanche was not convinced by Hou Junji.

Especially when Hou Junji arrived in Helong, he immediately took over the military power of the two states of Shankuo and the armies along the border. When he mobilized his troops, he did not greet Lanzhou at all. Being restrained by him made Xue Wanche very uncomfortable.

But because the crown prince is at Hou Junji's place now, he is not easy to get angry.

In fact, when the Prince’s order was sent to Lanzhou, the tens of thousands of troops in Lanzhou’s Dudu’s Mansion were basically dispatched by Hou Junji, and Xue Wanche only had one army of the Dudu’s Mansion left in his hands. Wucheng Shouzhuo at Pipa Mountain on the border, Changbao garrison on the banks of the Tao River in the south of Lanzhou, and Jinchengguan garrison stationed in Lanzhou.

The soldiers in Guancheng Fortress cannot be transferred lightly, Xue Wanche is only able to transfer his own three thousand soldiers.

So after Xue Wanche received the order, he simply sat in Jincheng and waited for Cheng Yaojin to come.

He took those 3000 people to see Hou Junji, but he was not happy.

"Anyway, my three thousand is not too much, and my three thousand is not much!"

"Aren't you afraid that Hou Junji will take advantage of the situation and punish you?"

"I'm afraid of a bird, if I really want to be punished, the two of us will be together at that time, I can't run away, and I won't be without you." Seeing how relaxed he was speaking, it was expected that Hou Junji would not dare to do anything to him.

"Has Shubao gone north?"

Cheng Yaojin didn't argue with this guy either. Although Xue Wanche said he wasn't from the Prince Qin's mansion back then, he was still very trustworthy by the emperor, especially since this guy was anointed by Princess Danyang. It is known all over the world that it is green and oily, and the emperor also felt that he owed him.In addition, the brothers of the Xue family are better at fighting each other, so they have always been treated preferentially.

Chengqian still had to call Xue Wanche his uncle, and he dared not touch him easily because he relied on his old prostitute Chengqian.

"Qin Taibao heard that he was ill."

"Ill?" Old Cheng frowned.

"Well, Qin Taibao is a general I rarely admire. In terms of fighting, I only admire two and a half in this dynasty. One is Qin Qiong, who is brave and unparalleled in our generation. Use wonders like a god."

"Half more?"

"There is also Qin Lang, barely half of it." Xue Wanche still dissatisfied with Qin Lang, although he admired Qin Lang in his heart, but his mouth was stubborn.

"Li Ji, Duke of England, Li Daozong, King of Jiangxia, Li Xiaogong, Prince of Zhao County, and Chi Gong, Duke of E, don't catch your eye?"

"When Li Ji was in Hebei, he was beaten by Dou Jiande and Liu Heitai. He was defeated again and again, and was even captured by others. Speaking of which, it was the biggest defeat and the biggest humiliation that Lao Tzu suffered in his life in Hebei. I can't get rid of his relationship with Li Ji, and others boast that Li Ji is so great, but if you ask me, he, Li Ji, is even worse than me, let alone Qin Lang."

"As for the two princes, King Jiangxia and King Zhaojun, we all know what's going on. Don't look at the high meritorious deeds, it's just because of the clan. The meritorious deeds made by King Zhaojun back then were basically Li Jing's."

"Yuchigong? That black charcoal? Does he have any merits? Qin Shubao's defeated general, after following the saint, he only acted as a guard in the tent, no different from Hou Junji, if it wasn't for the nine years of Wude They are big-hearted and black, like Qin Lang, who did things that others don't want to do, how can they have a place in the court?"

Old Cheng smiled, "Yuchi Laohei's horse is really amazing!"

"Although a general can't be weak in bow, horse, riding and archery, he doesn't rely on force to determine who is superior. No matter how good he is at using horses, he should be the commander of the imperial army's horses. Although Yu Chigong has the courage of ten thousand enemies, But at most it is to be a partial general with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and let him lead thousands of troops and horses to stand alone?"

Xue Wanche was not convinced by this or that. Yu Chigong said that only the courage of a man is courageous, and that bravery is not resourceful. Li Ji said that there are more defeated battles than victories. Li Daozong Li Xiaogong even said that he has no real skills.

As for Su Dingfang, he is a rising star, but he is at most Qin Lang's disciple, and he hasn't really won any big battles by himself.

He doesn't even look up to so many famous generals, let alone Cheng Yaojin in front of him.

He said that Yuchi Gong could at most be a commander of thousands of riders, but as for Cheng Yaojin, he would be a commander of thousands of riders.

Cheng Yaojin didn't have time to talk to him about this, so he hurriedly asked about Qin Qiong's situation.

"What else could it be? The old wounds left by the early battles. Qin Shubao has been working under Lai Huer's command for more than ten years. He also crossed the sea to conquer Liaodong. Later, because of his mother's death, Ding You was at home. Because of the chaos in Henan, the county guard Zhang Xu Tuo recruited him and fought from the end of the Sui Dynasty to the present. He has fought hundreds of battles. I don’t know how many injuries he has suffered and how much blood has been shed. .”

"I heard that the emperor sent envoys to Songzhou in Jiannan, wanting Qin Shubao to lead the war in Helong, but Qin Shubao was too sick to get out of bed, and even received the imperial decree lying on the couch. The God of War, Tiger General, is now skinny and skinny, like a sick cat, hey, I am waiting for the general to bring peace to the troubled times, but I can enjoy the prosperous years."
