Chapter 972 The problem with the adults
Han Mo's eyes rolled and said unhappily: "Mr. Yu, you can't understand what you said? I will ask you, is this what you said by yourself, or is it what Lin Chengfei asked you to say? I will ask you another question, what do you mean?"
Seeing Han Mo's face showing anger, Yu Hai was still a little nervous and hurriedly said, "General Han, don't misunderstand it. This is not General Lin's words. If you talk about it, it is not the words of my official."
At this moment, a soldier outside the tent brought in two cups of tea, just coarse tea.
"Oh?" Han Mo glanced at Yu Hai, picked up the teacup, and said, "But I don't know if this hurts the harmony between our two countries, who was the first person to come from?"
Yu Hai said solemnly: "General Han, I will not hide it from you. The Wei people had already shot us with arrows a few days ago. Do you know what the Wei people said?"
"I really want to know." Han Mo seemed interested.
Yu Hai said with a strange expression: "The Wei people claimed that the general sent an envoy into the city to discuss peace with the Wei people!"
Han Mo smiled calmly and said, "Of course, Master Yu would not believe such nonsense, otherwise he would not have said so clearly to me." He touched his chin and said, "Kyoto City will be broken sooner or later. The victory of our two countries' coalition forces has been decided. I really can't think of any reason to discuss peace with the people of Wei... Master Yu should know that the so-called peace talks are often a diplomatic choice for the weak to force the strong because of helplessness, and now we are the strong!"
Yu Hai believed in skepticism, and then he was silent for a moment, and finally said, "So General Han has thought about when to attack? I naturally believed in the general, but the Wei people spread the news to our army. After many generals of our Qing army learned about this, they complained about the noble army. Since it was an alliance, we should advance and retreat together. Now our army is fighting in blood and the noble army does not move. If this continues, I am afraid that it will not be of great benefit to our two countries, and it will be better for the Wei people."
"The rumors stop at the wise." Han Mo smiled faintly, "I still believe that wise men like Lord Yu still account for the majority of your army." He paused, raised his hand and pointed at the door of the tent and said, "Mr. Yu has just met. I have just held a military meeting to cooperate with your army to launch an attack on Kyoto City, but...!" He said this, shook his head and did not continue.
"But what?" Yu Hai couldn't help asking.
Han Mo sighed: "But many generals are still reserved for the ability to launch an attack."
"This is strange. The soldiers regard bloodshed on the battlefield as their most brilliant. What else can they care about?" Yu Hai frowned and said, "Can the generals of your army feel fear when they see that the city of Wei people is too strong?"
Han Mo's expression darkened and he said sternly: "Mr. Yu, you said this to me. I will think of you in your heart and I will not blame you. But if these words are heard by my generals, I will be unable to guarantee that you can leave my camp alive."
Yu Hai also knew that this was a bit rash, so he just snorted coldly and didn't dare to say more.
"The generals do not attack immediately. As I said before, due to good tutoring, I did something wrong this time, that is, I should not send someone to Kyoto City to persuade the surrender." Han Mo clenched his fists and said, "I treat each other with courtesy, to be polite and then soldiers, but the Wei people are too barbaric and have not been able to give me a reply to this day, and even our envoy has not been able to come back for a long time..."
"General Han, the people of Wei are so shameless." Yu Hai immediately said: "In such a righteous country, the general should attack even more to let them understand whose fist is hard, and to make them pay the price for their ignorance and rudeness!"
Han Mo nodded and said, "This is the case with me. However, many generals under my subordinates thought that the envoy had not returned, and we must not launch an attack at this time. Once the attack was launched, our envoys would definitely be massacred by the Wei people. My 100,000 troops of Dayan were watched by our attack and spread. The generals felt that this would be a great humiliation... Lord Yu, this is not unreasonable. My 100,000 healthy men in Dayan, and even a censor of Dayan could not protect him. How could he face his compatriots in China? Because of this, a dispute had occurred here before. Until now, I was dizzy and upset."
Yu Haidao: "General, take care of himself. But... can the general wait like this? If the Wei people did not release the envoys sent by the general to surrender, would the noble army keep holding on like this?"
"Of course not." Han Mo said seriously: "We are here to conquer Wei. This Kyoto City must be captured. How can we keep the troops still?" After pausing, he said: "Every day of delay, the amount of materials consumed is countless. If this continues, our army will not be able to support it."
Yu Hai then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since that's the case, I don't know when the general is going to attack?"
"I have decided to issue an ultimatum to the people of Wei, so that they can release our envoys within the prescribed time. Otherwise, I will have to make up my mind and launch an attack on Kyoto City regardless of the safety of the envoys in the city!"
"So what day is the deadline the general gives them?"
"Thinking about it," Han Mo said, "But this matter also needs to be given to the other party, so you can't be too tough." He stared at Yu Hai's eyes and said, "Mr. Yu, after you go back, please rest assured that our army will cooperate with your army to launch an attack in the fastest time!"
Yu Hai nodded slightly and looked at Han Mo, as if he wanted to say something, but hesitated but hesitated.
Han Mo smiled and said, "What else does Lord Yu have?"
Yu Hai seemed to be determined and finally said: "General, there is indeed a big event that needs to be discussed with the general!"
"Please speak with Master Yu!"
Yu Hai looked a little embarrassed and said, "Do you still remember the promise you made?"
"What does Lord Yu mean?"
"General, your country has borrowed a batch of food and weapons and equipment from us." Yu Haidao: "The General said that when the Wei people withdrew from Nanyang Pass, they would return the weapons and equipment to our country. They also promised that as long as your country's food and grass arrive, they would... return the borrowed food to our army. I also hope that the general can keep his promise."
Han Mo frowned immediately and said, "Sir Yu, I think you remembered it wrong?"
Yu Hai suddenly became anxious and said, "General, you...you can't keep your word. I...I remember clearly, there is absolutely nothing wrong!"
"It must be wrong." Han Mo said earnestly: "Mr. Yu, I also remember that I thought that after the war, I would return the weapons and equipment. At that time, your country was facing the attack of the Wei army. It seemed that as long as the Wei people were driven out of Nanyang Pass, the war would end. But you also know that although your country drove the Wei people out of the territory with the help of our army, you and us did not stop the attack, but continued to attack the Wei people. The war was not over, so... according to our agreement, this batch of weapons and equipment did not come to the time to return it."
Yu Hai's face turned a little red and wanted to argue, but it seemed that he was saying that at that time, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Han Mo picked up the teacup and raised his hand and said, "Mr. Yu drinks tea." He drank a small sip on himself, and then continued, "Mr. Yu, your country is a country of etiquette. You should understand this kindness? Although I don't ask for your country's reward, you can't break the bridge across the river? I sacrificed the lives of countless soldiers and helped your country repel the Wei people. Now that the war has not stopped, your country is preparing to return the weapons and equipment we borrowed. It is spread to you at this time. I am afraid that everyone in the world will blame you for breaking the bridge across the river and being ungrateful, right?"
Yu Hai thought for a while and said, "General, you can't return the weapons and equipment for the time being, but the food must be returned. As far as I know, your country has transported a lot of food and grass from the country, and it is said that there is a large amount of food and grass supply behind it, so... I hope the general will keep his promise and return the borrowed food to our country as soon as possible." He smiled bitterly and said, "General, Lin Chengfei has given a death order this time. If he can't get the food back, he will be beheaded by him when he returns."
Han Mo frowned and said, "General Lin is really too much. How can he treat Master Yu like this?" He immediately said, "Mr. Yu, I will remember that he borrowed 250,000 stones of grain from your country, right?"
"Yes, yes!" Yu Hai said hurriedly: "Please return it as soon as possible."
Han Mo shook his head and sighed, "Sir Yu, this matter...is something difficult."
Yu Hai immediately said anxiously: "General, this is what you promised in person, and you must not break your promise."
"I will know." Han Mo nodded and said, "I did say at that time that the food and grass of the country will be returned as long as the food and grass of the country will be returned, but until today, the food and grass of the country have not yet arrived completely."
"General, don't hide it from others." Yu Haidao: "Your country has transported a large amount of grass from the country. I know very well, how can you say that the food and grass have not arrived?"
"Mr. Yu, don't worry, you're not listening." Han Mo said slowly: "I meant that the food and grass were not fully arrived, but it was not unavailable. Didn't you hear the word "complete"?"
When Yu Hai heard this, he was stunned.
"I promised it was not a false statement. For me, food and grass are absolutely indispensable to keep the army combative. The so-called three armies move forward before they move food and grass, which shows the importance of food and grass." Han Mo said slowly: "What Master Yu said is right. A batch of food and grass has indeed been transported in the country, and the quantity is indeed quite large, but this is only a part of it. In my country, there will be several batches of food and grass in Dayan... But before all the food and grass in our army can be fully sufficient, I will never easily consume the accumulated military food and grass. Master Yu asked me to repay 250,000 stones of food and grass. If it is really returned at this time, the food and food of our Yan army will be left. How can I support the soldiers to use grain?"
"General, you are... you are making a fuss, you are cheating!" Yu Hai blushed and got up from the chair, breathing rapidly.
Han Mo frowned and said, "Master Yu, please pay attention to the words. This general has always had a bad temper. Do you know that the eyes of my Yan army soldiers are now only staring at two places, one is Kyoto City, and the other is the grain depot behind my Yan army. We have to conquer Kyoto City at all costs, while we have to save him at all costs. Now the expenditure of military rations is no longer the only one that I can do. If I order the 250,000 shi of grain from the grain depot at this time, within an hour, my subordinates will definitely mutiny over this matter, and the consequences will be unimaginable."
Yu Hai said helplessly: "General, your country has sent troops to help me Daqing, and I Daqing is not an unreasonable country. Your army borrowed 250,000 stones of grain, of which 50,000 stones is equivalent to giving your army the reward. The remaining 200,000 stones will be asked to be compatible with the general and return it as soon as possible."
Han Mo shook his head and said, "Under the current situation, it is indeed not possible. When our army's food arrives completely, even if you don't want it, I will send someone to send the food back to you... Keeping my word is always one of the virtues of me!"
"General, you can't do this." Yu Hai said anxiously: "You Yan Army want to have a meal, and my Qing Army wants to have a meal too."
Han Moqi said: "Mr. Yu, as far as I know, your country has hoarded millions of stones of grain in Nanyang County. How could it be short of food?"
Yu Hai wanted to speak but stopped, hesitated for a while, and finally said: "General, I am not invisible. In order to deal with the Wei army, almost all the food in our Qing State was stored in Nanyang County. However, after the Wei army withdrew the troops, the imperial court issued an order. Our Northeast Army and Northwest Army of Daqing needed food and grass supply, but we could not transfer food at all in the capital, so we could only draw from Nanyang. The food and grass in Nanyang County were already half drawn...!"
"So that's it." Han Mo said sympathetically: "It seems that your army is indeed very difficult. But... the situation of our Yan army is also equally difficult. Since Lord Yu treats each other sincerely, I will not hide it from it. In fact, the country is also short of food and grass. Although the Ministry of Revenue is trying hard to raise, it is difficult to raise a large amount of food and grass. Now our army is also supplying a quantity, which is very difficult." He came forward, patted Yu Hai on the shoulder and said: "Mr. Yu, I sympathize with your situation, but I am really powerless. I just ask you to convey General Lin that our army should carry forward the spirit of hard struggle, fight against suffering, and support it. We will soon defeat the Wei people. All the problems will be solved..." A gentle smile and said softly: "I believe in me, that's right!"
