Chapter 189 The first confrontation

Two days later, Yunzheng was about to arrive in Mayi City.

Seeing that it was getting late, Yunzheng planned to rest in Mayi City tonight.

After passing Mayi City, you will reach Dingbei City.

"Report!"

At this time, the sentinel sent out on a fast horse brought back two horses.

Soon, the sentry came to Yun Zheng and said, "Prince Qi, I met these two people on my way to Mayi to report the news. They came to report on the order of General Wei."

While the sentry was talking, the two dismounted and saluted Yun Zheng.

"Oh?"

Yun Zheng was slightly surprised, "What message did General Wei ask you to bring to this king?"

One of them immediately replied: "The general has received the news that the prince has arrived in Shuobei. The general has specially ordered us to come and inform the prince that the general has arrived in Mayi and will hold a banquet in Mayi to welcome the prince and princess."

"That's daring!"

Yun Zheng laughed and said, "Go back quickly and tell General Wei that I will be here soon!"

"Yes!"

The two immediately got on their horses and left quickly.

Yun Zheng's lips curled up, and he immediately led everyone to Mayi.

Yes!

There is no need to go to Dingbeicheng to find Wei Wenzhong, and it can also save them some time.

It seemed that Wei Wenzhong would not allow himself to command the army in the three cities ahead.

Otherwise, Wei Wenzhong would not have to go to Mayi to hold a banquet for them.

Soon, Yunzheng led everyone to Mayi City.

Wei Wenzhong led officials and generals of all sizes in Mayi City to greet him two miles out of the city, which gave Yunzheng, the King of Jingbei, some face.

After a simple courtesy, Yunzheng and others followed Wei Wenzhong into the city.

Wei Wenzhong hosted a banquet, but not everyone was qualified to attend.

Yunzheng and Shen Luoyan brought a few guards and followed Wei Wenzhong into the city guard's mansion. The rest were temporarily placed in the camp in the city.

After drinking for three rounds, Yun Zheng took the initiative to ask Wei Wenzhong: "Where does General Wei intend for me to lead the army?"

"Shuofang."

Wei Wenzhong answered simply and directly.

Shuofang?

Yun Zheng's heart moved.

Isn't Shuofang right between Suqu and Dingbeicheng?

Ah!

Yes, although it is not in Suqu, it is not bad to be next to Suqu.

The main reason is that Shuofang is not far from Baishui River.

The only drawback is that Shuofang is too close to Dingbeicheng.

If there is any trouble on his side, it might spread to Wei Wenzhong's ears.

However, Shuobei is vast and sparsely populated.

Although Shuofang is adjacent to Dingbeicheng, there is still a distance of more than two hundred miles in between.

If you think about it this way, Shuofang also has a lot to do!

While Yunzheng was thinking, Wei Wenzhong continued: "The nearly soldiers in the Shuofang West Camp were originally soldiers in the field. A battle next year is inevitable. Those soldiers have re-armed. After the prince takes office..."

"and many more!"

Shen Luoyan suddenly interrupted Wei Wenzhong and asked with a look of dissatisfaction: "General Wei, are the soldiers you assigned to the prince the soldiers who were stationed in the fields before?"

"Correct!"

Wei Wenzhong nodded with a smile.

After receiving a positive answer, Shen Luoyan was about to explode on the spot.

Yunzheng pulled Shen Luoyan and looked at Wei Wenzhong with a frown, "Is this your intention or my father's?"

"Of course it is what the Holy One means."

Wei Wenzhong said sternly: "Your Majesty has already sent someone to inform me that troops will be launched against Beihuan in the spring of next year. When the prince arrives at Shuobei, he cannot be left idle, so he will help me retrain the soldiers who are stationed in the fields." , Let the prince gradually become familiar with military affairs..."

Hearing Wei Wenzhong's words, Shen Luoyan suddenly became furious.

Can the soldiers in the field be the same as the standing army in Shuobei?

To put it mildly, the soldiers in the field are basically the old, weak, sick and disabled who have been eliminated from the standing army of the Beifu Army!

Even if the training is completed, the combat strength is not at the same level as that of the standing army!

However, even if she is extremely dissatisfied, there is nothing she can do now.

This is what Emperor Wen meant!

Wei Wenzhong also acted according to Emperor Wen's wishes.

Even if she jumped up and beat Wei Wenzhong, it would be of no avail.

"Since it is what the father wants, then so be it!"

Yun Zheng was too lazy to say anything else.

There is no point in talking about anything else.

Could he still let Wei Wenzhong go against his father's wishes and allocate nine thousand elite soldiers to him?

He dared to mention it, but Wei Wenzhong would definitely not agree!

Got it!

Now I’m really busy!

Are you training the soldiers in the field?

Yes!

This is a challenge, but also an opportunity!

It is certainly much easier to recover these soldiers who are stationed in the fields than to conquer those elite soldiers.

"Thank you, my lord, for your understanding."

Wei Wenzhong said politely, and then took out the warrant he had prepared and handed it to Yunzheng, "This is my commander's warrant. With the warrant, the prince can rush to the camp and take over the military affairs of the camp!"

"it is good!"

Yunzheng took the order and put it away without even looking at it.

At this time, Wei Wenzhong stood up again and bowed: "There is one more thing that I must explain to the prince in advance to avoid misunderstanding."

"Speak!"

Yun Zheng waved his hand gently.

Wei Wenzhong said sternly: "Since the prince took over the military affairs, the prince has been the general of the Beifu Army! Regarding non-military affairs, I will try my best to satisfy the prince, but when it comes to military affairs, I ask the prince to obey the orders and not make things difficult for me. Do."

Wei Wenzhong said it quite vaguely.

Yunzheng understood what he meant.

He, Wei Wenzhong, is the commander-in-chief of the Beifu Army. Even if he is the prince, he cannot disobey orders.

Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be a military law!

This should be regarded as Wei Wenzhong's attempt to intimidate him!

"Row!"

Yun Zheng readily agreed, "Since I have come to Shuobei to lead the army, I should obey orders."

Wei Wenzhong chuckled, bowed and said, "Thank you so much, Your Majesty!"

"It doesn't matter, this is what it should be!"

Yun Zheng waved his hand and suddenly changed the subject, "However, I also have something ugly to say before me, so please don't take it to heart, General Wei."

"My lord, please speak."

Wei Wenzhong smiled.

Yun Zheng smiled and waved to Gao He, indicating that Gao He would bring his sword over.

After taking the sword from Gao He, Yun Zheng placed the sword in front of Wei Wenzhong and said seriously: "This sword was given to me personally by my father when he led the Chinese military officers of the court to see off the king and his wife!"

"I will not interfere with General Wei's military affairs and will obey orders!"

"But if there are criminals in the army, and if General Wei cannot deal with them impartially, I will have no choice but to personally punish these criminals on behalf of my father!"

Listening to Yunzheng's words, Wei Wenzhong's face froze.

He gave Yun Zheng a warning, and Yun Zheng also gave him a warning.

Yun Zheng took out the knife and almost told himself clearly not to be the commander-in-chief of the Beifu Army with him!

He is the commander-in-chief of the Beifu Army, he is also a prince, and he also has a sword given by the Holy Emperor!

If you want to cause trouble for him, consider your own identity first!

It seems that this prince is not as stupid as the legend says!

At least, he immediately understood the implication of his words and backhanded him.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, if there are really criminals in the army, I will deal with them impartially!"

Wei Wenzhong smiled calmly.

Yunzheng nodded and smiled: "I also believe in General Wei!"
