Chapter 022 Show Weakness

The future combat direction of the Dragon Army has been determined, and everyone is much more relaxed. The guards sent fried rice cakes and fresh fish soup. Even in winter, many fish and shrimp can still be found in the Chaohu area of many ponds, rivers and lakes.

Everyone drank soup and ate cake. Xing Tianhu remembered something and said angrily: "The general's plan is indeed... That's comprehensive. I just can't stand the birdishness of those Dahua generals now. What is Huang Degong? It's too rampant.

Everyone also looked unhappy when they heard the words, and Zhuo Fan smiled and shook his head. Huang Degong is a person from Zhou Zijin, the right prime minister. He was originally just a minister of health, resourceless, and a standard food and drinking guy. He said that he was a soldier of the Ministry of Health, but he looked like a politician. Recently, because Zhou Zijin gained momentum and soared, this time he actually became the commander-in-chief of Dahua's encirclement and suppressation. Obviously, he was making achievements. In the future, he will definitely enter the senior management of the Dahua army and become another pawn of Zhou Zijin.

The Dragon Army also informed the court in order to act cheaply this time. Although it no longer belongs to the Dahua system, it still has the acquiescence of the imperial court, which can be regarded as a local armed place to assist in encircling and suppressing thieves. People are cold, and all officials with some knowledge in Dahua know that the Shenlong Army has a close relationship with the former Zuo Xiangzhuo family, but since Zhuo Yin has resigned, that is, he has lost his power. It is very difficult for the officials to have less respect for the Shenlong Army. People who used to have some relationship with Zuo Xiang Zhuoyin still have some old friendships, such as Liu Liangzuo. But people like Huang Degong can't wait to fall into the well and step on it.

Zhuo Fan's unified action to join the Dahua Army is also a consideration of his own strategy. As the commander-in-chief, Huang Degong naturally wants to suppress it. Moreover, the Dragon Army has only 4,000 people in total, and I'm afraid it is not as good as a larger guard department. Huang Degong is even more out of sight. For example, since they are all encircling and suppressing troops, food and salary dispatch should also be allocated. However, Huang Degong's sentence "local assistance should be self-raising" and called back, which made Xing Tianhu, who was in charge of contact and negotiation, very angry.

Nowadays, Shenlongshan is responsible for the food and salaries of the Dragon Army, which will not have any impact on the Dragon Army, but this matter is realistic.

"We do our own things, and the villains won't be rampant for long. Look at it. Soon he can't cry." Zhuo Fan drank the soup leisurely.

Everyone thought of the extraordinary plan just now and laughed, and the soup felt even fresher.

"Report to the general! Huang's command came to see the general." A personal guard lifted the thick cotton curtain and bowed inside to report.

Speaking of Cao Cao's arrival, the messenger arrived when it came to the old boy.

"See you." Zhuo Fan ordered and said to everyone at the same time, "Remember what I just said? Let's show the weasel.

"Hahaha." Everyone laughed, and Zhao Yinbao even sprayed out a mouthful of fish soup, and then the boy sneaked out of the tent.

Not long after, the captain in gold-rimmed silver armor came in arrogantly. Obviously, this was Huang Degong's special envoy.

"Ouch, * It's a long time to welcome you. Please sit down quickly. Come on, come on, fresh fish soup. Come and taste it and go to the cold." Zhuo Fan is full of smiles. He is familiar with this kind of thing.

The school officer sprinkled his eyes everywhere, because the Dragon Army is no longer a Dahua system, and naturally has no formal official rank. At this point of view, he is naturally the biggest, and his head seems to be higher now.

Seeing the fish soup served by Zhuo Fan attentively, the school official licked his lips, but he had courage in his heart. In fact, the extraordinary reputation of the mighty general is still very large. Although he has a lot of objection to his achievements, he is also a figure who has fought against the Tatari. According to the tricks of Dahua's military achievements, it must be more exaggerated to annihilate 10,000 Tatar cavalry, but after all, he defeated the Tatron. This time, I was also ordered to explore the details.

He took two big sips, but put down the fish soup with a disdainful look on his face. The school official said, "This time I was ordered to come here to discuss with you about cooperating with the enemy."

Zhuo Fan's eyes turned around and asked with a smile, "Oh? Is the fight about to start?"

"Exactly, our army entered Chao County on a starry night, and General Liu Liangzuo's headquarters was also speeding up the march. Three days later, the army could come to Chao County. Lord Huang ordered your troops to march immediately, arrive in Chao County tomorrow, and first remove the periphery of Zhang Xianzhong's troops. When our army arrives, we will annihilate the thieves in one fell swoop.

Damn, Zhuo extraordinary scolded in his heart, letting me take the lead to provoke more than 100,000 soldiers and horses of Zhang Xianzhong, obviously letting me be cannon fodder. Oh, you don't even need to hide it. It's obvious that you are bullying me.

"Oh, my lord, I'm afraid this is a little difficult. Can you discuss it?" Zhuo Fan said with a bitter face.

"Well, how can the army act like a child's play? The military order is like a mountain. If there is a bad pool, Lord Huang will definitely be severely punished." The school official stared.

"Oh, adults don't know something, but there are really many difficulties." With that, Zhuo Fan approached and whispered, "Brother, I made a clear deal with my brother. You probably know that our Zhuo family is not as good as in the past. This time, the enemy came to my hometown, and it was hard to join in the fun. Hey, brother, you must understand.

When the school officer heard Zhuo Fan tell him the truth, his face calmed down and he also whispered, "I am also a businessman, and you and I naturally understand the truth. This is a military order and cannot be disobeyed. But if you really have any difficulties, I can naturally speak for you in front of Lord Huang.

Zhuo Fan looked happy when he heard the words and turned his head and ordered Zhou Tong to say a few words. Before long, Zhou Tong took a wooden box and sealed it tightly. As soon as the school officer got it, his whole face unfolded. He sat up straight and his tone was much more polite: "I don't know what's difficult General Zhuo has. As a dispatcher, this is also my duty."

"Hey." Zhuo Fan almost cried and said with a bitter face, "Your Excellency, our army is short of clothes and food, and the salary is seriously insufficient. That Xianzhong is very cunning, and the walls of ten miles and eight villages are clear. I'm not afraid of your jokes. Our army has reached a situation of embarrassment. You see, even those of us who lead soldiers can only use these small fish and shrimps, hey.

The school official licked his lips and said to himself, the fish soup was very fresh, but he was surprised and said, "Do you use this thing to eat? Oh, it's really hard. However, since the military order has been issued, I'm afraid it won't work if it is not implemented. But..."

The school official looked around and stopped talking. Zhuo Fan quickly arched his hand and said, "If you have any good policy, just say it directly. They are all your own people."

"Well, General Zhuo is a sensible person. It doesn't matter whether we fight or not, but no one can say what he looks like. You can fight as much as you can, and it's nothing to retreat when you encounter a strong enemy alone. Although your department is single, it still fights against strong enemies to kill and injure the enemy. When the army calms down the thieves, it will naturally have your credit.

After saying that, the school officer and Zhuo Fan met and smiled, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the account, and Zhuo's extraordinary face suddenly changed, making a wink. Zhou Tongxin understood that he was waiting to go out, but he was shouted by the school officer in his eyes.

"What happened?" the school officer asked.

"This, this, nothing, may be a trivial matter in the army. The adult drinks soup here and comes down." Zhuo Fufan is obviously a little difficult to say.

The school official waved his hand and said, "You and I'm no longer an outsider. I'm quite familiar with things in the army. Maybe I can give my brother some advice."

Immediately, without waiting for Zhuo Fan's consent, he went out first.

Zhuo Bufan and others had to accompany them. When they got out of the tent, they saw a large group of soldiers outside making noise and were blocked by the SS not far away.

Seeing a vote of officers coming out of the tent, the group of soldiers suddenly got up and almost broke through the obstruction of the guard, which shocked the officer.

"I quit!"

"I haven't seen any military uniforms for three months, which makes people drink the northwest wind!"

"Fuck, it's winter, and there are no cotton-padded clothes! Freeze to death without a war! Does it still make people live?"

A burst of indignation came, and Zhuo Fan's face was suddenly extremely wonderful, embarrassed and angry, because the special envoy was not easy to attack on the side. The school official looked at it with contempt.

"Your Excellency laughed." Zhuo Fan said awkwardly, "These bastards are itchy without whipping for a day!"

At this time, a young soldier cried, "I'm quit. I'm going home!"

Zhuo Fan was even more annoyed when he heard the words. He kicked him to the ground and said angrily, "Come on, you have tied me up!" What a style to gather people to make trouble! Each person has 20 military sticks, and you are not allowed to eat for three days!"

Dozens of well-dressed guards gathered up and waved their whips. Twenty or 30 people who made trouble were quickly subdued. Their thin clothes were tied down by five flowers. Soon, there was a scream in the same place.

Zhuo Fan invited the school officer back to the tent with an awkward face.

This episode was quickly forgotten. Under the extraordinary hospitality, the school official had a full meal, saying that there was not enough food, but the banquet was big fish, meat, good wine and good dishes.

The school official left with a wooden box and left with satisfaction. Zhuo Fan and his party have been sending him out of the mountain pass, and they are attentive and thoughtful.

The figure of the school official disappeared in the distance, and Zhuo Fan and others looked at each other and laughed.

"Zhao Yinbao did a good job, hahaha, by the way, there is also Little Stone, as the best supporting actor!" Naturally, this incident of the soldier's trouble was watched as a school official, and the boy who cried to go home was Little Stone. The performance was quite successful.

After returning, the school official really added fuel and vinegared what he saw. The image of a vain general was vivid and vivid. He drank soldiers' blood and mixed his official career. His subordinates were also a group of rabbles, and his people were lax and his fighting power was low. Huang Degong was relieved, but he still sent to serve and monitor the Dragon Army.
