Chapter 110: Asking for Supplies

After repelling the barbarian vanguard army, Huang Zhang did not return to Longhu Village in Xiaocang Mountain, but went straight to Tianjiabao.

The news that he had repelled the barbarian army must have been known to Wu Shanhui immediately. In that case, he wanted to see how Wu Shanhui would catch his next card!

When Huang Zhang arrived at Tianjiapu, Wu Shanhui came out to greet him immediately.

It was obvious that although Wu Shanhui was standing still, the intelligence information was not lost at all.

"Congratulations, Your Highness, on your victory!" Wu Shanhui congratulated him first.

"It must be General Wu who is willing to lend troops. If not, how could I have won this victory?"

"The main reason is that the eldest prince is very clever in his strategy. He made the barbarian soldiers lose their helmets and armor with one fire trick!"

The two exchanged blows for a while, and then Huang Zhang got to the point.

"Now that the vanguard of the barbarian army has been defeated by me, I wonder when General Wu will start to march?"

Huang Zhang knew whether Wu Shanhui would march, and Wu Shanhui also knew it, but he couldn't tell him what everyone knew well, so Huang Zhang was questioning him now.

Previously, Wu Shanhui refused to march, saying that barbarians were blocking the way and he needed to weigh the pros and cons.

Okay! Huang Zhang fully understood, so he borrowed troops to clear out the barbarians blocking the road. Now, he wanted to see what other excuses Wu Shanhui had.

It doesn't matter, if you still have excuses, Huang Zhang is not afraid, he will definitely trick you next step anyway.

Hearing Huang Zhang's words, Wu Shanhui smiled awkwardly at first, and then started to argue, saying that the troops were all from the north and were not accustomed to the local environment, so why were they afraid that the barbarian army would pretend to be defeated and deliberately lure him deeper.

Anyway, there are a lot of reasons, and they can be summarized in just two words: Don’t move!

Huang Zhang smiled. It was okay to stay still, but if he didn't pay some price, wouldn't his efforts this time have been in vain?

Last time he asked Wu Shanhui to borrow troops, of course he would not borrow them again this time because he couldn't afford them.

"Hearing General Wu's words, you just refuse to send troops?"

When Wu Shanhui heard this, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty asked me to command the Pingman Army. I have a heavy responsibility. How can I betray your Majesty's trust? But Your Highness must also understand that it is not that I am unwilling to send troops. In fact, when the soldiers are tired,

My, my combat effectiveness has dropped too much. Secondly, I am afraid that the barbarian soldiers may be ambushing me and I may act rashly, which may lead to disaster. Your Highness does not understand the military. I don’t know that when the thousands of troops move, the chariots, horses, food, fodder, and baggage and equipment will all be moved with them. This is really troublesome.

"

"Since General Wu just talked about carriages, horses, food and grass, General Wu should know that I led the troops to defeat the barbarian vanguard army this time and suffered great losses. Not even one of the 8,000 northwest troops that I borrowed from the general is left, and the rest are old, weak and sick.

Can, since General Wu said that he is inconvenient to move, can you lend me these chariots, horses, food and grass, and I will continue to pursue the barbarians with the remaining soldiers, what do you think?"

"this……"

Wu Shanhui was stunned when he heard what Huang Zhang said.

After working on it for a long time, Huang Zhang’s intention is here.

"I see that General Wu is a little hesitant. Could it be that he has figured it out and is preparing to attack with the whole army? That's okay, it just so happens that His Highness also wants to take back Wucheng!"

"No, no, no! Your Highness has misunderstood. I was thinking about how much material is appropriate to give to His Highness!" Wu Shanhui said hurriedly.

As long as he doesn't send troops and lose some food and fodder, he doesn't care! Anyway, it will be piled up. Wu Shanhui can only comfort himself in this way.

"It doesn't take too much. The general should know that I don't have many people. How about this, I can take as much as I can without causing any trouble to you. How about that?"

"Take as much as you can take?"

"Yes, take as much as you can!"

Wu Shanhui was a little hesitant. He knew that Huang Zhang didn't have many soldiers, and he could hold up to 10,000 soldiers. If it was true as Huang Zhang said, he wouldn't worry about it. He would take out the food and grass for 10,000 people and send the young man in front of him away.

Ye, it’s quite a deal.

But when he looked at Huang Zhang in front of him, he always felt that something was wrong, and he felt uneasy!

"Okay! General Gan, take your highness to the warehouse. Remember, give as much as you should give, and there must be no ambiguity! Do you hear me clearly?"

Gan Shui immediately stood up and replied: "Listen clearly!"

Huang Zhang looked at the blatant eye contact between the two, and wondered why he didn't know what Wu Shan meant during the conversation and couldn't be vague! Let me show you the price of being unambiguous!

After leaving the mansion, Huang Zhang took Gan Shui directly to the outside of Tianjiabao.

Liu Han and Kou Xin had already been waiting outside with soldiers from the Cold Wind Battalion. After Huang Zhang won the battle, he asked Sunu to notify Liu Han early to come and receive the supplies.

There were not many people in Hanfeng Camp, all 5,000 people were present.

Gan Shui smiled contemptuously when he saw the five thousand Cold Wind Camp soldiers in front of him.

What a joke! How much can five thousand people move? Their grain transport team has tens of thousands of people going back and forth at one time. Just this, it can't be transported in one trip.

He felt that his general was stingy and allowed him to keep an eye on supplies for just five thousand people! Just give them to him!

Huang Zhang looked at Liu Han and asked in a low voice: "Have you brought everything?"

Liu Han nodded.

"Everything is ready according to the boss' wishes!"

Chu Liang had previously wondered where Liu Han and Kou Xin's Five Thousand Cold Wind Battalion had gone. Of course they did not participate in the war.

To deal with a mere 7,000 barbarians, Huang Zhang would not have dispatched his entire army, which would be too inferior.

Liu Han and others were naturally entrusted with "important tasks" by Huang Zhang.

Gan Shui led 5,000 Cold Wind Battalion soldiers to the warehouse.

As soon as the warehouse door opened, Gan Shui said proudly: "Go ahead and move as much as you can!"

In his opinion, the group of country soldiers in front of him have probably never seen so many supplies in their lives, and he can show his generosity to his heart's content.

When Sunu heard this, she immediately said: "General Gan, His Royal Highness the eldest prince has listened to your words. Don't regret it then!"

Hearing Sunu's words, Gan Shui said with disdain: "This... the young lady next to His Highness, don't worry, our General Wu is not a stingy person. There is a saying in our army. Once a word is spoken, the military order is like a mountain! You just have to obey

Good luck.!”

As soon as Gan Shui finished speaking, Liu Han waved his hand, and the soldiers from the Cold Wind Camp behind him immediately rushed forward with cheers.

But what surprised Gan Shui was that these soldiers from the Cold Wind Battalion did not come by themselves. Behind them, there were also strange-shaped transport vehicles.

Looking at these tools, Gan Shui instinctively felt that something was wrong! However, he seemed to be unable to do anything except look at them. He could only pray that he was overthinking.

Unfortunately, his doubts were not unnecessary.

I saw soldiers from the Cold Wind Battalion constantly sending supplies to the transport vehicles they brought, and those transport vehicles were like gluttons, constantly devouring the supplies in the warehouse.

In a short period of time, half of the warehouse's food supplies had been cleared out by soldiers from the Cold Wind Battalion.

At this time, the five thousand team was only half filled.

Seeing this scene, Gan Shui was startled, and immediately stood up to stop it: "Your Highness! It can't be lucky anymore! It can't be lucky anymore, otherwise it will be gone!"

Huang Zhang looked at the jumping Gan Shui and gave him a contemptuous look. Su Nu stood up and angrily said, "Bold! The general said it himself just now. Once he said it, the military orders were like mountains. Is it possible that the general treats military orders as a child's play?"

When Gan Shui heard this, he immediately waved his hands and said: "No! No! The general will not dare! It's just that..."

At this moment, Gan Shui was really miserable and wanted to cry without tears. Who would have thought that Huang Zhang had such an inexplicable means of transport that could hold so much! If General Wu knew about this, he would definitely be skinned!

Huang Zhang looked at the shipment situation, raised his hand and said: "Okay, no need to install it!"

When Gan Shui heard this, he felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He immediately collapsed to the ground and said feebly: "Thank God, it's finally over!"

Gan Shui thought it was over, but Huang Zhang didn't. His car wasn't full yet.
