In terms of their status, it was of course the first choice for He Mai to visit Wang Mi, but Wang Mi was very curious about what this restless little boss was busy with in the Beifu Army every day.
It's better to go and see for yourself.
As a low-level civil servant in Beifuzhong, He Mai did not have his own separate office and could only squeeze into a room with three other clerks.
When Wang Mi opened the door and took a look, he was stunned.
"Secretary Wang, please come in quickly!"
He Mai was currently writing at his desk. When he saw Wang Mi coming in, he hurriedly greeted him.
Wang Mi's face was full of curiosity: "Where are your peers?"
It was an empty big house, but now He Mai was the only one left. Wang Mi remembered clearly that Xie Xuan had said before when allocating the house that small officials would not be allocated a room.
He Mai was stunned for a moment and laughed loudly: "They have all moved out!"
"Moving out?"
"Didn't we just assign rooms today?"
Wang Mi sat down, and his intuition told him that He Mai must have used some trick.
"It was settled, but I didn't want to live with them, and they didn't want to disturb my work, so I gave them some money and asked them to find a hotel on the street."
Give money?
Sent to a hotel?
What are these operations?
He Mai looked like it was natural and drank tea leisurely, which made Wang Mi look stunned.
"You give money and they take it?"
"I'm afraid it won't be good to do this. General Xie will have objections." Duan Xian's doubts at this moment were exactly what Wang Mi wanted to say.
He Mai raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "Why don't you dare to accept it?"
"I gave them a lot of money. Who doesn't need money to spend when they are away from home?"
"I'm just spending money to buy some leisure time. Not only do they have money to collect, but they can also go out and live in a big room. Why not?"
"General Xie, as long as it doesn't delay things, he won't care about these small things."
When it came to doing things, He Mai was full of confidence. Before Wang Mi asked any questions, he was bragging about himself.
"To tell you the truth, I have taken care of all their errands by myself, so there is no need for them to do anything at all."
"They can get money, have people do things for them, and they can go out to play. It's hard to refuse such a good thing."
Wang Mi was shocked. Could this child be stupid?
He also provides money and helps with work. Where does this living Bodhisattva come from?
"Why is this?"
"Why are you helping them? Are you stupid?"
He Mai shook his head: "Secretary Wang, I'm not stupid, I just can't bear to see what they do. The number of entries in the account books is full of loopholes. They are still lazy and can't write an account book in a day. I really can't stand it. I can only
I did it myself.”
It turned out that it was because of this that Wang Mi once again expressed his admiration for He Mai. He was indeed right. He Mai is a person who loves what he does and can shine wherever he goes!
When He Mai was in Jingkou, he was obviously a well-born young man, but he could speak loudly and shout for business. Now in Beifu, he is just a small bookkeeper, but He Mai can still take care of business seriously and passionately.
It's done well.
Wang Mi thought to himself, he is indeed the person I like!
"As long as you don't feel it's hard, you'll be giving those people an advantage!"
He Mai didn't care: "Getting things done is the most important thing. Besides, those people just got a temporary advantage. Over time, General Xie found that with me, I can get everything done, so it won't matter."
They are needed."
There was a sincere smile on He Mai's small round face, and Wang Mi understood clearly that this boy really had a purpose for being so diligent!
"Since you are so diligent, I will give you another errand."
Instead of being bored, He Mai was very excited.
"Secretary Wang, just tell me, what's the matter?"
Wang Mi leisurely said: "You have also seen the situation in Yuanjiang garrison now. Too many soldiers and horses have poured in at once. I am really worried that there is not enough food and grass. You are also responsible for recording. You have time to go to the granary to check it in the past two days.
.”
It turned out that it was for this matter. He Mai nodded and said, "No problem, I'll take care of it."
Although He Mai agreed happily, Wang Mi was still worried and asked: "It will take at least a month to go to Xiangyang to fight. When you go to check the food, you must make sure that the army can last for a month."
"I understand, don't worry!"
With He Mai's guarantee, Wang Mi could finally go back to his room, lie down, and meet Duke Zhou quietly.
Wang Mi was relieved, but among the Yuanjiang garrison, there were still people who couldn't let go.
Under the darkening sky, there are fewer and fewer people on the street, and the small shops are gradually losing their light.
In Huan Yi's room, several candles were lit, illuminating the small room as bright as day.
Although it was already late, Huan Yi had no intention of falling asleep. There was a map lying flat on the table in front of him.
This is the entire map of Xiangyang City.
This was originally not Huan Yi's responsibility. Ever since he cooperated with Beifu, he has been in charge of the partial army for a long time. Xie Xuan would not let him become the military commander.
As far as Huan Yi knew, the Jingzhou soldiers who cooperated with Beifu almost never looked at maps.
It’s no wonder that whenever Jingzhou soldiers and Beifu soldiers cooperate, they will not use their full strength. Anyway, the credit will not be the largest share in the end. Jingzhou soldiers believe that in the cooperation between the two parties, no matter how the final battle is fought, the most important thing is to be absolutely
We cannot let the Beifu soldiers take advantage.
Besides, Jingzhou soldiers also have difficulties.
Whenever the three armies attack together, the Jingzhou soldiers will be controlled by the generals of the Beifu Army, and the power will be handed over to Xie Xuan. The Jingzhou soldiers will be unable to stretch their arms or kick their legs, and will be unable to support their left side and right side.
Moreover, in the eyes of Xie Xuan and the court, they were more concerned about whether the Jingzhou soldiers obeyed the orders than whether the Jingzhou soldiers won the battle.
The tradition of Jingzhou soldiers causing trouble is too deep, and it can be said that they have a bad record. If the old Sima family hadn't been weak, they would have been dealt with long ago.
Therefore, the Jingzhou soldiers led by Huan Chong had already understood this secret, since the imperial court needed them to be honest.
Then just be honest, they will fight as Xie Xuan orders, and they will not do anything Xie Xuan does not order.
Of course, it also includes studying battles and deploying them in advance.
Although Huan Yi was a member of the Huan family, he commanded the Yuzhou Corps, which was generally smaller in scale. In terms of military strength, it was completely incomparable to the powerful Jingzhou Corps.
As a result, as a member of the Huan family with a backbone of rebellion, Huan Yi could still remain aloof from outsiders, secure his position as the governor of Yuzhou, and lead the troops in the war.
Since we want to fight, we must win the war and never do superficial things. This is the basic principle Huan Yi set after joining the army.
In his spare time, he studied maps and tactics, and he couldn't stop himself. But tonight, for the first time, he used the detailed map as a decoration.
