Chapter 0098: Angry
Before, Qu Yunmie boasted that he would be well in five days, but ten days have almost passed and he is still in the recuperation stage.
This was not because Qu Yunmie was too arrogant, but he and Xiao Rong had different definitions of recovery. Xiao Rong believed that recovery was when the wound was completely healed, while Qu Yunmie believed that as long as he could hold a weapon, then he was recovered. …
At the end of August, the autumn wind was bleak. All the large and small white cloth strips on Qu Yunmie's body had been removed, leaving only the one above his collarbone. He no longer had to wear just his outer clothes. After getting dressed again, Qu Yunmie felt relieved.
As a general who was rough in every aspect, he was particularly concerned about his clothes. …
Although Xiao Rong still did not allow Qu Yunmie to go to the battlefield, he would not really ask Qu Yunmie to wait until he was fully recovered before leading the army again. That would take a long time. So after a few days, when Qu Yunmie's complexion was better, he could return to the battlefield.
The previous one was a war of revenge, and this time it was an upgraded version of the war of revenge. While Qu Yunmie was recuperating, the soldiers with missions were eyeing the Xianbei people on the opposite side, and those without missions were training with all their might. Everyone was waiting for the day to fight back. Among the hundreds of thousands of troops, there was almost no deserter.
Only applies to the Zhenbei Army, and reinforcements are not included.
In the king's tent, four generals, the two Yu brothers, as well as Fuzi and Xiao Rong, all sat together to discuss the next battle deployment.
They did not invite reinforcements because this was just a private meeting. Once they came to a conclusion, they would hold a general meeting to give the reinforcements the illusion that they were also participating in the decision-making. …
Jian Qiao: "Based on the current morale, I estimate that this battle can push our position forward another ten miles."
In the previous days of fighting, they had only advanced six or seven miles, but now they could advance ten miles a day, and it felt like they could force the Xianbei army back into the city.
If they don't return to the city, they will have to face the Zhenbei Army head-on, which will greatly increase the risk and the probability of being ambushed.
Yuan Baifu: "But after they returned to the city, we became passive."
Yu Shaoxie: "Then we should try to cut off their forces. The central army will charge, and the right and front armies will outflank the two sides. We must keep the main force of Xianbei outside."
Yuan Baifu: “…………”
He led the left army, Wang Xinyong led the rear army, and the front and rear armies were the troops of Jian Qiao and Gongsun Yuan. Was it because Yu Shaoxie was on good terms with Jian Qiao that he helped him snatch military merit from himself?
The same sentence depends entirely on who hears it and how they understand it. No one else can tell whether Yu Shaoxie meant it in this way. Anyway, Yuan Baifu, who had been suppressed for a long time, felt that he meant it in this way.
He even asked Yu Shaoxie directly: "What should the left army and the rear army do?"
Xiao Rong glanced at Yuan Baifu. Qu Yunmie was sitting there. If he asked Yu Shaoxie like this, Qu Yunmie would easily feel that Yu Shaoxie was overstepping his authority.
But Yu Shaoxie himself is also responsible. Didn't you see that he didn't say anything? Even though he has never been in the workplace, he knows that you can't just come up and say what you think in a meeting. You should first listen to the leader's ideas, and then you can prescribe the right medicine. ...
Yu Shaoxie was a man who was sometimes steady but sometimes very straightforward. Apparently this was the time when he was being straightforward. He was so focused on negotiating a result that he didn't notice the subtlety in Yuan Baifu's attitude at all.
Yu Shaoxie replied: "The left army has the largest number of troops, so it can be divided into two groups to support the right army and the front army respectively. The rear army has the smallest number of troops, so 30,000 troops should be drawn to stay in the garrison to prevent a surprise attack by the Xianbei or other armies. The remaining troops should go to support other generals like the left army."
Yuan Baifu almost wanted to laugh: "Then let the right army and the front army merge, why do we have to split the left army, or has Mr. Yu already thought about who should lead the other army after the left army is split."
Gongsun Yuan chimed in, "The four armies have already been split up. If they are split up further, the people below might become disloyal, which is not good for the stability of the army's morale."
Yu Shaocheng had been very quiet the whole time, but at this moment he suddenly said, "If you change a general, you will have disloyalty? Who do you have disloyalty towards, the king or General Gongsun?"
Gongsun Yuan: “…”
He just spoke up because he saw Yuan Baifu was unhappy. To be fair, no general would want his troops to be separated, but Yu Shaocheng's words really hit the nail on the head. They are all Zhenbei Army, all the king's soldiers, so how can there be any talk of unstable military morale?
Feeling that continuing to speak would only make matters worse, Gongsun Yuan kept silent.
Xiao Rong looked at the undercurrents between these people, and he suddenly realized something.
These days he was so focused on Qu Yunmie's injury and the Qingfeng Sect's gang that he didn't notice that the army was instability. It was not only because of Qu Yunmie's sudden injury, but also because a dark horse suddenly appeared in the general structure that had been stable for many years.
Yu Shaocheng had been the commander of the guards before. Yuan Baifu didn't know him, and Gongsun Yuanjianqiao and others had never seen his skills with their own eyes. Now he suddenly showed his skills, and he saved Qu Yunmie, who was like a god, after he was injured. Not only did he save him, he even snatched back the bones of the chief of the Ishtar tribe.
This one achievement alone is enough for Yu Shaocheng to lie down and eat for the rest of his life.
But Yu Shaocheng was not a parasite, he could not stop there. He was young, capable and courageous. No one noticed him before he showed his abilities. But after he showed them, people could not ignore him even if they wanted to.
This man was a natural born general, maybe even a natural commander. Ordinary soldiers were grateful to him and admired him, but as generals themselves, their feelings were somewhat mixed.
Even someone as absolutely loyal as Jian Qiao could feel envious and jealous, let alone others.
Judging from Yu Shaocheng's expression, he might have realized this a long time ago, so he did not show any humility when facing Gongsun Yuan. He also pointed out Gongsun Yuan's mistakes, which not only dealt Gongsun Yuan a fatal blow, but also secretly expressed his loyalty to Qu Yunmie. No matter which army they were in, in his eyes, they were all the same, they all belonged to the king's Zhenbei Army.
Xiao Rong: “…”
He was silent for a moment, and then thought that he might have thought too much. Yu Shaocheng didn't have so many thoughts. He just wanted to help his brother to confront others. ...
Yu Shaoxie didn't have the final say on how the four armies were deployed, so everyone didn't argue much. Soon, everyone looked at Qu Yunmie who was sitting at the top. Qu Yunmie responded to their gazes with a deep voice, "This is all nonsense. I won't let them have a chance to return to the city."
Everyone: “…………”
As expected, you are the one who talks the most.
Yu Shaoxie was puzzled: "Don't let them return to the city? How is that possible? If the general of the Xianbei finds that the situation is not favorable, he will definitely order a retreat. This is the Xianbei Murong tribe, not the Xianbei Yuwen tribe. They will not sit and wait for death."
Xiao Rong tilted his head and suddenly asked Qu Yunmie: "Does the king have any other ideas?"
Qu Yunmie curled the corners of his lips towards him.
