Chen Anshi, who fell into the trap, did not dare to stay any longer after he woke up, and hurriedly returned to the inner city with the remaining troops.
…
"So, what you are saying is that of the more than seven thousand troops, two or three thousand were burned to death. In addition, the Shu people also took away the batch of grain and grass."
"I haven't paid any money..." Chen Anshi said painfully.
Bang.
In front of Chen Anshi, a fat man who looked like a wealthy businessman raised his hand coldly and overturned the tea cup on the table to the ground.
"Chen Anshi, we all believe in you. You are so stupid that you fell into the Shu people's plan!"
"Master, the people of Shu may have found something before. Furthermore... the person who used the trick this time is most likely the poisonous owl from Western Shu."
"Poisonous osprey." The wealthy businessman remained silent and closed his eyes.
"This time, I originally thought that if I added a little more, the food crisis in Xishu would be worse. Now it's better. It's really poisonous owl who took action. You and I made a miscalculation. Not only was the official road and the trail switched, in addition, he also
Borrowing the power of Donglai's army. If this man were alive, he would be truly terrifying."
"Master, can't Donglai really win over me?"
"madness."
The wealthy businessman raised his hand and slapped Chen Anshi hard in the face. Immediately, one of Chen Anshi's cheeks became swollen.
"Don't forget, Yuan Song's surname is Yuan! The royal family surnamed Yuan has died in Cangzhou, and everyone in the world knows it! I won over him and supported him, am I going to support the second Yuan Dynasty? Now
, only the new dynasty can maximize our interests. Therefore, why I insist on choosing the King of Yuzhou is for this reason. Now it seems that he has the best chance to seize the country."
"It's a pity that this Chang guy is so inexperienced that he doesn't welcome our attachment."
"Master, the King of Yuzhou has lost many people in Dingzhou."
The wealthy businessman frowned, "I thought before that he wanted to join forces with Xishu. But now it seems that this kid has a really bad temper. Before his injuries healed, he wanted to be beaten and killed.
Of course, as I said before, this trick is extremely clever and will temporarily put an end to the conflict with the inner city family."
"I heard that in the inner city, the military advisor Zhongde also put the heads of eight aristocratic families under house arrest to order many aristocratic families to temporarily stop the commotion."
"Master, what should we do?"
The wealthy businessman closed his eyes, with hatred in his voice.
"As I said before, if Xu Buyi is not destroyed, we will die without a burial place until the new dynasty is established. This is not an empty lie."
"Chen Anshi, I will give you a chance to atone for your sins. No matter what method you use, you will provoke a war between Donglai and Xishu."
"These two are both opposing enemies. It would be best if they could fight each other."
Chen Anshi nodded immediately.
"Don't worry, Master, I will try my best this time."
"It's not about trying your best." The wealthy businessman's eyes were cold, "It's about succeeding. Chen Anshi, you should know my methods."
Chen Anshi's scalp felt cold and he expressed his position hurriedly.
"A certain Chen Anshi is willing to atone for his sins."
"Very good."
…
Seven or eight days later, on the other side of Xishu, there was a scene of dancing.
With a large number of grain trucks, they passed through Laizhou and Kezhou, took the waterway to Bailu County, then entered Sichuan from Banan City, and rushed back to Chengdu.
Previously, because of the "burning of the granary", the soldiers and civilians in Shuzhou were all beating their chests and feeling sad. Now, because this batch of grain and grass has entered Shu, it has inspired the confidence of the soldiers and civilians.
"Brother Sheng, this is my brother Sheng!" The most excited person at the gate of Chengdu was Si Hu. Si Hu, who was unaware, saw Chen
After returning with the food, I couldn't help but shouted like a child with red eyes.
"Daughter-in-law, my son Meng Huo! Steamed buns, I have steamed buns to eat today!"
Xu Mu, who was standing at the gate of the city, was excited when he saw Chen Sheng returning safely. As the biggest hero, Jia Zhou, leaning on a cane, also had a smile on his face.
"My brother Sheng is a hero in the world." Xu Mu took a few steps forward and punched Chen Sheng on the chest.
The Chen Sheng in front of him is no longer the Wangzhou horseman he used to be. He finally has his own reputation.
"Lord, I'm lucky to have lived up to my fate." Chen Sheng also beat his chest with one arm excitedly. After losing his arm in Wangzhou, what he feared most was to become a useless person, unable to fight for his employer and fight for the world.
"Chen Sheng, you did a good job." Jia Zhou also praised, "It is the true nature of a general to remain calm in the face of danger."
"Thank you, lord, thank you, military advisor..."
Xu Mu turned his head and looked at Jia Zhou. From each other's eyes, they both saw some kind of intention. In fact, among the five former horsemen, he wanted to train Chen Sheng to be one of them.
Generals are used as direct descendants. It is a pity that when he attacked Wangzhou, Chen Sheng broke his arm heroically.
Furthermore, for people like Chen Sheng, leading troops in war is just like a layman. You must know that people will die in war, and there are countless loyal bones buried in the seventy-mile cemetery outside Chengdu.
If there was a good choice, Xu Mu did not want to let the old brothers in this team leave one by one. But he understood that in the bottom of Chen Sheng's heart, he had always longed for the battlefield, military exploits, and sword-to-sword fights.
"Lord, let me tell you." Jia Zhou looked calmly and looked at Chen Sheng in front of him.
"Chen Sheng, I just discussed with my lord. If you are willing, you can enter the general hall and study for a period of time. In the future, you can become my general in Western Shu. How about that?"
"Army, military advisor! Lord, I am willing! I, Chen Sheng, am willing!" Chen Sheng knelt down excitedly and clenched his fist with one arm.
"Lord, look, I'm telling you that our logistics general has always wanted to go to the battlefield." Jia Zhou turned around and said with a smile.
Xu Mu hesitated, "Brother Sheng, even if you really become a general, you can't charge like a reckless man. As a general, you should sit in the base camp, observe the battle situation, and establish the power of the army."
"Don't worry, my lord, I, Chen Sheng, will listen to whatever you say."
Xu Mu's face was moved, and without any hesitation, he stretched out his hand and helped Chen Sheng up.
"Starting from tomorrow, you will go to the General Hall to study. If you learn well, I will transfer you to the front line of the war."
Again, he prefers to use loyal and brave people rather than talents. After all, loyal and brave people can be cultivated, but if people without virtue are capricious, they will definitely cause huge damage to the entire Xi Shu regime.
"Lord...Chen Sheng takes the order!" Chen Sheng had a resolute face and a straight posture.
"I hope that one day, when someone talks about you, Chen Sheng, they will no longer laugh at your broken arm. Instead, they will only say that there is a general in Western Shu who has a broken arm. He is victorious in every battle and is incredibly brave!"
"Lord, military advisor, please rest assured, I will do my best."
"Of course I am, brother Xinsheng."
The food and grass matter this time made Xu Mu make up his mind. Otherwise, these old brothers brought from Wangzhou would have been doing logistics work out of various considerations.
If these people had not known each other, if they had not fought together from Wangzhou, then the greatest possibility is that due to ancient class antagonisms, even if they had not died in troubled times, the descendants of these five horsemen would still be in the same poverty.
, panicked and unsure of the future.
But now, the Xishu regime, which started from its humble beginnings, has given people like Chen Sheng the opportunity to fight and fight.
"Brother Sheng, make me famous all over the world!"
