Chapter 608 The bare commander
ps: Thank you to the book lover of "Green Sword Feng" for sending a review ticket, thank you!!
The next morning, Wang Sancai asked Fang Tong if there was a terrifying beast named "Rebirth". When he saw Fang Tong's face full of suspicion, he immediately realized that he was thinking too much.
In desperation, Wang Sancai had to push this matter behind his head and instead brought Fang Tong and David Black to the military headquarters.
Everything went smoothly, and all three of them got their own positions. Wang Sancai became the general of the front defense, Fang Tong and David Black were first appointed as "guerrilla soldiers", such as those soldiers who have been inquiring about various information outside for many years and are responsible for dealing with the enemy's guerrillas.
Wang Sancai also forgot to discuss with the queen in detail yesterday. At this time, he temporarily considered that the two of them were not familiar with the surrounding terrain and had no experience in participating in the war, so he asked the military headquarters to change the two of them to "defensive soldiers" and follow him to participate in the defense of the defense line first and put it in his own name.
Although Wang Sancai did not recognize any military commander, the queen had obviously said hello to him, and the military happily agreed to Wang Sancai's request.
Immediately afterwards, the three of them arrived at their "working location", just before lunch, and General Shangguan, who came the morning before yesterday.
Wang Sancai heard from the queen that the Shangguan family is the strongest family in Li. Even every fiscal expenditure is subject to one-third of the Shangguan family. It can be said that the Shangguan family supported half of the Li Kingdom. For example, during the current war, all expenses were huge. The Shangguan family had no complaints.
What Wang Sancai didn't understand was that the Shangguan family had such strong financial resources that they had no ambitions for the throne. He originally thought that he would definitely be embarrassed by General Shangguan this time. After all, he saved Li Guo's last line of defense in time.
Although if you don’t have yourself, this last line of defense would not have been able to stick to General Shangguan’s troops, but after all, these soldiers who let go saw General Shangguan save them with their own eyes. Such personal experience and listening to the news others say are completely different states of mind.
Moreover, nearly one-quarter of the soldiers on this defensive front are from the Shangguan family, and the other three-quarters of the soldiers are also from other different families. It can be said that Wang Sancai has only more than 200 Deputy Sima and others!
According to Wang Sancai's understanding, this defense line spans the entire eastern and western borders of Li State, plus the people brought back by General Shangguan, has an army of 60,000!
Everyone has no friendship with Wang Sancai. Why do they willingly listen to Wang Sancai's orders?
However, what Wang Sancai did not expect was that General Shangguan was very polite. He not only received the three of them friendly and friendly, but also prepared the best food and wine on the defense line to entertain the three of them. At the fastest speed, he handed over all the positions that Wang Sancai should take over to him.
Most importantly, although most of the soldiers looked at them with a sense of resistance, fortunately no one cared any hostility.
Almost all the handover procedures were completed when lunch was over.
The unexpected success made Wang Sancai feel a little confused. However, the next sentence from General Shangguan finally made Wang Sancai understand why it was so smooth.
General Shangguan is over 60 years old, but he is in good spirits. I don’t know if it is because he is running around and often moves around. His hair is not as gray as Wang Sancai imagined, and some shiny eyes often appear. Overall, he looks very thin and there is no sign that the queen told Wang Sancai that he has the strength of the late stage.
Moreover, after talking, Wang Sancai discovered that he was a very good person - it was manifested in that when you ask him, he would smile at you and beat the edges and grind his mouth. He never answered you directly, but he didn't answer you.
Finally, when the cunning old man led Wang Sancai to patrol the city wall, he smiled kindly at Wang Sancai: "Okay, my general guarding the city, I will lead the troops away in the afternoon. I will leave it here to you in the future. Oh, of course, it is only part of this central defense line, and the defense line on both wings is still guarded by the other two generals. General Wang only needs to take over the defense line on the left side of the center."
So that's it! The old man is leaving in love. No wonder he gave everything to himself so happily... But wait! Just the one on the left side of the middle defense line?
Wang Sancai saw that the entire huge defense line consists of two wings and three defense lines in the middle, among which the defense line in the middle is divided into three sides, the left, middle and right sides. In this way, Wang Sancai had the power to be responsible for the defense line on the left.
In name, he is a general responsible for full defense. But if Mr. Shangguan said this, except for the one on the left, he had no right to intervene in the rest of the defense line.
The key is that in this way, Wang Sancai completely lost the power of dispatch. So, if the enemy breaks through the defense line, wouldn’t it be his responsibility?
Wang Sancai couldn't help but frowned: "General Shangguan, what His Majesty the Queen said to me yesterday wasn't that!"
"Oh? Didn't the military headquarters tell you?" General Shangguan looked suspicious.
Wang Sancai couldn't help asking: "What did you say to me?"
General Shangguan shrugged and said innocently: "Tell you about your specific power and scope of your position."
Wang Sancai immediately sighed in his heart. It was so smooth that he went to the military headquarters this morning that the other party said nothing and he didn't ask anything.
When General Shangguan saw Wang Sancai's appearance, he patted his shoulder with a smile: "Young people, it is normal for a high heart, but don't forget to remember to ask clearly before doing things, otherwise the gap in your heart will often make you feel uncomfortable for a while."
What the old man said was light and kicked the ball to the military headquarters in just a few words. The key is that Wang Sancai didn't know anyone in the military headquarters, so it was impossible for anyone to speak for him. Wang Sancai could guess the old man's background without investigating. If he returned to the military headquarters to ask, the military headquarters would either kick the ball back to General Shangguan or would help him. In short, Wang Sancai could only run on both sides in the end, and he would not get any benefits.
Gripping your teeth... Isn't it just less than a month since he was a cat? I'll be liberated if I stand up!
Thinking of this, Wang Sancai could only take a deep breath: "Okay, General Shangguan, how many defenders are there in the line of defense I am responsible for?"
Upon hearing this, General Shangguan's face became even more confused: "What? Didn't you bring someone to yourself?"
Oh shit!!
Wang Sancai simply wanted to start swearing!
No wonder this old guy smiled at him from the beginning, and he handed over the power to himself with a good attitude and smooth attitude... It would be fine if he had the power to the left-hand defense line. Damn, he didn't want to give it to me?
Just rely on the two hundred people I brought to defend?
Wang Sancai's face couldn't help but become gloomy. But on the surface, he had to say angrily: "General Shangguan, aren't you kidding? Even if this line of defense is only 500 meters, do you think the 200 people I brought can be guarded?"
Two hundred people guard the 500-meter defense line... Even if they don't eat or drink, they stand here for 24 hours and have no handover staff. Then the average person can only stand guard at 2.5 meters.
Besides, who can stay at your post 24 hours a day without eating or drinking?
However, the old guy blinked his eyes and said with a puzzled look: "Didn't General Wang wipe out the 30,000 enemy troops with these more than 200 people without any damage?"
He specifically emphasized the words "no damage" and "total annihilation". Wang Sancai couldn't help but feel particularly harsh when he heard it, and his tone became unfriendly: "General Shangguan, do you think combat is the same as defense?! I really didn't expect that General Shangguan planned not to give me any one! Instead of doing this, I might as well resign and go back to report to His Majesty the Queen, I am incompetent in this city-guarding general!"
Wang Sancai's tone was furious, and he couldn't help but feel a little glad that the old guy was about to leave after handing over it to him. Fortunately, he had a little more thought and asked these questions. Otherwise, if he hadn't asked, the old man would definitely not have said it on his own initiative. Now he asked on his own initiative. The old man was pretending to be confused. Wang Sancai could completely imagine what would happen if he didn't ask anything.
When the old man heard Wang Sancai's tone was not good, he frowned: "General Wang, this is the order I received from His Majesty the Queen. You can't blame me, right? That's it, I don't have time to go to His Majesty Queen to verify the situation. I can lend you a hundred elite soldiers, no more. General Wang remembers that after I come back, I must return it to me without any damage."
The old guy's tone eased a little. I guess he didn't want the queen to do it too hard, but after hearing this reply, Wang Sancai was not calm, but became even more angry. What a joke? This old guy actually kicked the ball to the queen again? And after hearing the latter sentence, he still owed him a favor? Damn, there are only more than 300 people in his hands, so he can't even let the person he lends to him be damaged?
Are you an old turtle whimsical? How can three hundred people guard the 500-meter defense line not hurt? It is impossible not to die!!
Wang Sancai thought so in his heart, but on the surface, he really couldn't offend this old bastard who held the Chongjun. Moreover, even if he went to the queen to ask for an explanation now, it would be useless. When the news reached the queen's ears, before she could give any orders, the old bastard Shangguan had already no idea where to go and where to find him to ask for someone?
Let's talk about it when he comes back? Maybe the line of defense he guarded at that time had been defeated by the enemy's merits! Even if he waits for him to come back to rescue, it is his credit, and this old bastard can be completely pretending to be stupid with the Queen Mother!
At most, the queen could only ask the military headquarters to send some more people to Wang Sancai, but the problem was that this old guy would definitely take away a large number of people when he left. When the queen asked the military headquarters to transfer people to him, she could only second them from other generals guarding the city. If the generals on other defense lines complained that they were not enough, it would be impossible to divide a few people for themselves.
The key is that the zero damage that I had done the day before yesterday was annihilated 30,000 enemy troops. At that time, if the defense line is broken, wouldn’t it be my responsibility?
Wang Sancai could even imagine that if the defense line was broken, someone would definitely put the blame on him like this: "Didn't he wipe out the enemy's 30,000 troops with zero damage? Why can't he even defend a small defense line that is only 500 meters?"
Wang Sancai immediately made a decision in his heart that he could not ask for people from the city guarding generals on other lines of defense, otherwise if the defense line they guarded was broken, he would definitely shirk responsibility by saying "Lending people to Wang Sancai".
Humph... The commander is the commander who is the commander who is the only one. He really takes the blame for his master? He thinks he is so easy to bully? (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
