The fifth lieutenant of Shawang Wu Kangshi was sitting in the camp of Doulu Army. Lieutenant Sha said to the soldiers in the hall: "What? The governor's office refused to send troops?"
The soldier in the hall said: "Yes, Governor Jia said that it was not bandits who captured the Yanchi Salt Field."
Lieutenant Sha was not angry but smiled and said: "Not a bandit? If not a bandit, can he still be an officer?"
The soldier said: "Jia Jishi said that it was the salt officer under King Jianning who took over the salt field."
"King Jianning?!"
Lieutenant Sha raised his voice, stood up and said, "When did Jia Sishun, an old man, collude with King Jianning?"
The expressions of the other four captains changed.
What happened to King Li Yan of Jianning in Guazhou has spread throughout the armies of Longyou Road, but the imperial edict to control the armies of Longyou is a joke in the eyes of these unruly generals.
You can refuse King Jianning's transfer order by just using the excuse of "urgent border situation".
But it's one thing to disobey orders, and it's another thing to directly oppose King Jianning.
King Jianning is His Majesty's biological son. Now the emperor has gradually more troops and horses, and the war in the Central Plains is gradually coming to a conclusion.
The imperial court was regaining control over various state capitals, and it was obviously unwise to openly rebel at this time.
Captain Sha had countless thoughts running through his mind, and finally sat down in silence.
Captain Wu, the most unruly one, said: "Prince Jianning of Lao Shizi, how much money a month's income from Yanchi Salt Farm should be given to Prince Jianning!?"
Kang Xiaowei, whose family is in business, is the chief steward of the Doulu Army. He said: "Without the income from the salt farm, how can we fill the holes? The people below will not give up."
Lieutenant Sha pondered for a while and said: "We must have the bronze talisman from the governor's office! Bring a few more soldiers and directly 'request' the troop deployment document from Governor Jia!"
According to the military system of the Tang Dynasty, Jia Sishun, the governor of Shazhou, also served as the attack envoy of Doulu Army and the military envoy of Shazhou.
The mobilization of military operations involving more than 100 troops requires troop mobilization documents from the Jiedushi.
This is not to say that Lieutenant Sha respected Jia Sishun more, but that with the troop deployment documents, the Doulu Army could be justified.
After all, the Doulu Army was not domineering enough to openly rebel.
Ten strong soldiers rushed to the governor's office.
All I saw was that the gate of the Governor's Mansion was tightly closed. No matter how hard these soldiers knocked on the door, they could not open the door of the Governor's Mansion.
"Lord Jiedu! The Doulu Army has an urgent military intelligence report!"
The soldiers shouted, trying to open the door and rush into the governor's mansion.
Suddenly, a bow and arrow hit the shouting soldier's head, and the soldier's helmet flew away.
The soldier was so frightened that he squatted down with his head in his hands. The other soldiers raised their heads and saw a majestic general in armor, holding a strange big bow, standing on the inner wall of the Governor's Mansion, raising his bow and arrow at
Own.
"Prince Jia won't see any guests today! Are you going to storm the governor's mansion and rebel?"
Wang Shixiong let go of his hand again, and the bow and arrow once again shot off a soldier's helmet.
After Jia Sishun agreed to cooperate, Li Yan immediately issued a task to the players over Yanchi to defend the Governor's Mansion, recruiting fifty elite players to secretly sneak into the Governor's Mansion and control the defense within the Governor's Mansion.
The Governor's Mansion is inherently easy to defend and difficult to attack, not to mention that Doulu's army is not bold enough to openly attack the Governor's Mansion. Fifty elite players can block and defend the Governor's Mansion.
The Cui family brothers and Shang Bo also moved into the Governor's Mansion and led this team of players to "defend" Jia Sishun.
Wang Shixiong was the champion of the archery group in the last martial arts competition. He was originally an archery athlete. After accumulating contribution points during this period, his strength and agility have reached ten points.
Wang Shixiong is a second test player. He holds a recurve bow that he modified in his hand. He stands on the wall of the Governor's Mansion and draws the bow at the soldiers below. If he wants, he can kill these soldiers at any time.
However, Cui Tao ordered the players that it was not yet time to break up with the Doulu Army, so Wang Shixiong just shot off the helmets of these unruly soldiers.
The soldiers hurriedly fled back to the barracks, and the five captains were silent.
After a long silence, Lieutenant Sha finally stood up and said: "Without waiting for the troop transfer documents, the scouts at the salt field have inspected it. There are at most 500 soldiers. A total of 1,000 people from each department have been mobilized. I will personally lead the attack on the salt field!"
"
Lieutenant Wang said: "Without the troop deployment documents, the only ones we can move are our close associates."
On weekdays, he held Jia Sishun, the military governor, hostage, and coupled with the prestige of the fifth lieutenant in the army, he was naturally able to control the five thousand elite Doulu army.
But without Jia Sishun's troop deployment documents, it would not be so easy to let the soldiers attack King Jianning of the imperial court.
What the Fifth Colonel can mobilize is the elite confidants he usually recruits. These one thousand people include all the Fifth Colonel's personal soldiers and confidants.
Lieutenant Sha said: "Jia Sishun, an old man, relies on the support of King Jianning. We will come back to deal with him after we destroy Yanchi's army!"
When he said this, Lieutenant Sha was already murderous. Anyway, Jia Sishun was over seventy years old, so it was normal for him to die unexpectedly.
"King Jianning actually put his hand in Shazhou, so don't blame us for being rude!" Lieutenant Sha drew out his saber and said fiercely.
"What a bullshit Datang County Prince, let him see in this land of Shazhou, even if the King of Heaven comes, it is our Doulu Army who has the final say!"
Except for Colonel Wu, who had always been unruly, as Colonel Sha drew his sword, the other three captains hesitated.
Lieutenant Wang said: "Why not capture the Governor's Mansion and just get the troop transfer documents?"
Lieutenant Sha pressed the handle of the knife and tried to suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart.
The five captains of the Doulu Army were of equal rank, and the fragility of the five captains' method of deliberation was revealed at this time.
Military orders cannot come from one place. In name, Captain Sha is the leader, but when issuing orders, there will be constraints on each other.
These insects! Inadequacy and conspiracy!
Colonel Sha roared in his heart, but for the sake of the overall situation, he suppressed his anger and said:
"Attack the Governor's Yamen in broad daylight? If the attack fails for a long time, King Jianning's army outside the city raises troops to quell the rebellion. With the internal and external cooperation, can our Doulu army still win?"
Captain Wang Kangshi was silent. The Doulu Army was not a private army of their five surnames, but some of the soldiers were loyal to the Tang Dynasty.
There were many soldiers who were afraid of the great banner of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, these soldiers were willing to let them go make trouble and ask for rewards.
But if they were asked to attack the governor's mansion, I'm afraid many soldiers would not dare to obey.
Lieutenant Sha continued: "After destroying King Jianning's army outside the city, it's not too late to go back and deal with this old man Jia Sishun!"
Only then was the third captain persuaded, and he raised his hand and said, "No."
When the other four captains went to gather the troops, Captain Sha looked at the sharp saber in his hand, and his gloomy face was reflected on the back of the sword.
