Xie Xuan felt that there was a huge ideological gap between him and Huan Chong, and he could not understand what Huan Chong was thinking at all.
"Since you already knew there was no food, why didn't you tell us earlier?"
"If you had told me a few days earlier, I could have prepared in advance."
Because he couldn't understand, Xie Xuan's tone became much gentler.
Huan Chong laughed and said: "Youdu, don't be ridiculous. It's not the harvest season. How can you prepare so much food in just a few days?"
Xie Xuan is speechless: You know all about love!
You are smarter now!
Huan Chong showed an expression as if he had broken a can. At this point, even if Xie Xuan was anxious to death, he still couldn't get any food.
Just don't admit your mistake and stick to it.
Xie Xuan slammed the grain storage tank, feeling a sense of sadness in his heart.
Why?
Why didn't you check the granary reserves as soon as you arrived at Yuanjiang garrison?
Why did he believe Huan Chong and the others' one-sided words? He had obviously known for a long time that Huan Chong was such an unreliable person.
Actually, I still believed him.
Just as Huan Chong thought, Xie Xuan really had nothing to do with him.
Lao Xie must be feeling very sad. Insufficient food will directly affect the combat capability of a team. This is obvious.
Since Huan Chong knew that the soldiers could not be allowed to rest hungry, didn’t he also understand that the soldiers could not be allowed to go to the battlefield hungry?
It’s not that he doesn’t understand, he just disdains it!
This was the structure of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. On the surface, it looked like a united court, but on the inside, it was always in a state of disunity.
Beifu soldiers rarely assist Jingzhou soldiers, and Jingzhou soldiers do not care about the life and death of Beifu soldiers. Resources such as food and grass belong to whoever grabs them.
It seems that Huan Chong won today's round. The food had already entered his stomach. Not to mention making him vomit it out, even if he pulled it out, it would not be as hot as it was.
Xie Xuan clenched his fists tightly, barely suppressing his anger, but still unwilling to pay attention to Huan Chong, what about Huan Chong?
He obviously made a mistake, but he still looked like he was suppressing others and refused to admit his mistake.
I feel like it's time for me to show up.
Wang Mi looked at it for a moment, then walked between the two of them.
He said peacefully: "General Xie, the matter has come to an end. The key now is whether we want to go on an expedition tomorrow."
"The general means..."
Regarding the food issue, even if we argue again, we cannot change the status quo in a short time. Wang Mi feels that we should first put the topic on the right track.
"Let's go!"
"Of course I have to go to Xiangyang!"
Xie Xuan answered without thinking, and the result was almost as Wang Mi imagined.
What kind of person is Xie Xuan? He is not Huan Chong. He can run away even if he can beat him, but he can run away even if he can't beat him. The army of Beifu has come here and traveled a long distance. How can they return without success?
Retreating is totally out of character for him.
Huan Chong's opinions on this issue are surprisingly unanimous.
"You are right, we should go to war."
"Wait until the food is on the road and then think of a solution. It can always be solved."
When the same words come out of Xie Xuan's mouth, it means that he has foresighted and made many preparations. But when they come out of the mouth of Huan Chong, an unreliable man, it fully reflects his personality of loving things.
Even Wang Mi could see that Xie Xuan was already thinking of solutions when he made such a decision, while Huan Chong was just talking about it.
Since the plan was not to be changed, several people withdrew from the granary. Xie Xuan ordered people to load all the grain into the chariot, just waiting for the army to go out tomorrow.
"Who discovered the problem with the granary first?" Xie Xuan said as he walked. Officer Shen turned his head and immediately responded: "It was a subordinate who discovered it!"
Wang Mi chuckled, "Old man, you ran pretty fast when you were trying to take credit."
He wanted to say some words of comfort, but he saw He Mai following them with a smile on his face and no expression of disgust at all.
Where did this living god come from?
He just likes to work and is not willing to strive for credit. If there were more people like this in the Jin Dynasty... then the big families would be able to live in peace!
Although Police Shen grabbed it very quickly, he was not praised by Xie Xuan, which made him feel unhappy.
Xie Xuan glanced over, and He Mai suddenly realized that the general was actually looking at him.
"Since Police Shen discovered it first, why did Mr. He appear in the granary?"
Xie Xuan is not stupid. Inspecting the granary is not something that a desk clerk like He Mai needs to manage.
He Mai pretended to be innocent and said with a smile: "I came over to take a look because Secretary Wang reminded me."
"However, when I arrived, Shen Canjun was already in the granary."
What did he say?
It's haunted!
When Police Officer Shen heard this, he was so shocked that he could not speak.
How can there be such a fool in the world, why should he give all the credit to him, Old Shen? Police Shen remembers it very clearly, it was obviously he, He Mai, who arrived at the granary first.
Although Police Shen felt that with He Mai's shrewdness, he would not do such foolish things that would harm himself and benefit others, he still calmly accepted He Mai's explanation.
"Secretary Wang?" Xie Xuanyu looked at Wang Mi in shock: "Zhiyuan, was it you who reminded He Mai and asked him to check the granary?"
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Before Wang Mi had time to reply, he felt three cold gazes shooting towards him.
Huan Chong, Liu Chun, and of course the shady police officer Shen. It was these three who were currently glaring at Wang Mi with very unfriendly eyes.
This kid did it again!
In line with the highest principle of blaming others rather than oneself, these like-minded people have all put the blame on Wang Mi.
This kind of mentality is actually very common throughout ancient and modern times. People who make mistakes will gain people's sympathy, while those who expose mistakes become the target of public criticism.
Just like if no one exposed this matter, the empty grain storage tank would be full.
Faced with the pressure from Jingzhou Corps' eyes, Wang Mi felt good.
When it comes to thick skin and mental endurance, how can these rats compare to him.
Wang Mi nodded calmly: "It's just a casual reminder, nothing special."
"At that time, I saw that many troops were stationed at Yuanjiang garrison. I was a little worried that the food supply would be insufficient, so I asked He Mai to check it on my behalf."
"Have you anticipated from the beginning that there might not be enough food?" Xie Xuan's tone clearly contained a sense of disbelief.
Wang Mi smiled and did not continue to brag. Xie Xuan was shocked. Although he always shouted that Wang Mi was just talking on paper, the reality slapped him in the face again and again.
Wang Mi, who had never had any battlefield experience, actually thought about the issue of food and grass immediately, much earlier than he, the general of Beifu.
Sure enough, he was a formidable young man. Xie Xuan felt a lot of pressure from Wang Mi. His expression when he looked at Wang Mi was very complicated, which fully reflected his inner feelings.
Such a shrewd and wise junior will definitely be successful in the officialdom in the future. From a personal point of view, Xie Xuan admires such a witty junior.
However, from the perspective of the family structure, the better Wang Mi is, the more Xie Xuan will be wary of him. As Wang Mi gradually emerges, Xie Xuan feels that it is time to teach him some lessons and let him retreat.
