Chapter 213 Something is wrong
Chapter 213 Something is wrong
Outside Luancheng, after a night battle with Zhang Xiaosi and dispersing the enemy, Zhao Sheng sent out spies to search for the whereabouts of this team.
Li Xin also drove the Zhang family army out of the county city that night, losing military supplies and more than a thousand people, but there was no other major loss, and the infantry artillery on the city wall was still there.
It’s not that Zhang’s army didn’t want to take it away, but the first generation of infantry artillery was quite heavy and inconvenient to carry.
Zhao Sheng assembled the army and expanded a part of the Dingzhou army into the new army. The original plan was to recruit a full 20,000 people, but now he was satisfied.
Especially the independent regiment of the New 1st Regiment, now has companions.
The Special 1st Division has three regiments under its command. The new regiment is the 1st Regiment of the Special 1st Division, abbreviated as the Special 1st Regiment, followed by the Special 2nd Regiment and the Special 3rd Regiment.
The original battalion commanders were promoted in sequence.
Chen Qian reorganized the Sharp Knife Battalion into an independent Sharp Knife Regiment, which was directly managed by Zhao Sheng. The first battalion of the Sharp Knife Regiment was a machine gun battalion, the second battalion was an artillery battalion, and the third battalion was a special service battalion.
"Deputy Commander Ma, do you feel a little aggrieved?"
Zhao Sheng also served as the commander of the Special 1st Division, but did not hand over the command of the Special 1st Division to Ma Biao.
"My Lord, how could I possibly know that?"
Ma Biao grinned.
"I am the division commander now, you can call me division commander."
"My Lord, Zhao Long is now the Commander-in-Chief, and the Division Commander is only a Governor. Your position has been reduced to a lower rank!"
"Yes, what should we do?"
"Look, my Lord, give me this position of division commander. Do you want a position higher than the military governor?"
Ma Biao's reminder made Zhao Sheng think for a while. Above the division commander is the army commander, and Zhao Long is equivalent to the army commander, so he must be the commander-in-chief.
"Call me Governor-General, no, call me President!" Zhao Sheng said proudly.
"Yes! Mr. President!" Ma Biao smiled and gave Zhao Sheng a flat-chested military salute.
After Li Shuya woke up, she was still very sad. Firstly, the child she had been carrying for more than six months was gone, and secondly, her younger sister also passed away.
These two things were not a big deal. The main thing was that the woman suddenly lost something in her body, and she became a little depressed all of a sudden.
"Daddy, Mommy hates eating the most. Is she sick?"
The two little ones suddenly hugged Zhao Sheng's arms, and Ning Yue rubbed her head against his chest from time to time.
"Be good, baby. Your mother has been feeling unwell recently. Please don't disturb her, okay?"
Xinyue nodded her head: "Daddy, we understand. We won't disturb Mommy."
Zhao Sheng looked at Wanqiu and said, "I remember there was another girl. What was her name?"
Wanqiu thought of Wang Daya and said with a smile, "The princess named her Wanchun, which matches the master's surname, Zhao Wanchun."
Li Shuya, who was lying on the bed, heard Wanqiu's words, looked at the girls in the room, and said softly: "You can't have the surname Zhao now."
Wandong, who came over with water, couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard this. Although she didn't make a sound, the tears were like pearls that had broken off the string.
"Wandong, what's wrong with you?" Li Shuya asked.
"Sister Princess, why can't we have the surname Zhao?"
"It's not that I can't have a surname, but I can't have a surname at this moment!"
"why?"
"Because you will all be his consort's people in the future, when he welcomes you into his family, your surname will naturally be Zhao."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng felt that something was not right with Li Shuya. She had never been so arbitrary before. She always felt that something was not right, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
"Husband, will Xiaotao accompany you today, or will you let Sister Zhen'er accompany you?"
Speaking of Zhao Zhen, he hadn't seen her for a long time. When Li Shuya mentioned her, he actually wanted to see her.
As if she could see through Zhao Sheng's thoughts, Li Shuya said, "Originally, we asked her to come to the Princess's Mansion to hide, but she insisted on helping you guard the workshop gate. The workshop has been closed, and she has Chen Er's security team with her, so her safety is not a problem."
"Okay, I understand." Zhao Sheng didn't say much. He always treated Zhao Zhen as his sister, but Zhao Zhen wanted to marry him. Now she was eighteen years old, which was considered a grown-up girl in this era.
Xiaotao accompanied Zhao Sheng in the evening.
It would be more accurate to say that Zhao Sheng was holding a large hot water bottle rather than accompanying him, and he really couldn't muster any interest.
With the news about Zhang's army, Zhao Sheng arranged for the Special 1st Division to find Li Xin and jointly encircle and eliminate this cancer.
After Yizhou was captured by Chen Da and Xing Shuren in one fell swoop, Xing Shuren was appointed by King Yan as the garrison general of Yizhou. Xing Erhu was Xing Shuren's nephew, so naturally he was promoted one level.
Chen Da was originally in Yizhou, but after staying there for a while, he felt bored and returned to the Langya camp.
However, after the battle of Yizhou, Chen Da's team expanded by one-fold. Now there are more than 20,000 people in Langya, and the favored Lu Yihou has also returned here.
"Do you know what your current status is?"
Chen Da put his feet on the table, just like Lu Yihou did when he was in the mountain stronghold.
"I returned after having fought against the Xiongnu with the new army from Yuzhou and performed great service. This Xiaolongshan was once my territory. I don't need you to give it to me, but I can at least follow you and make a living."
Marquis Lu Yi no longer had the arrogance of the Lu family in the past, and was now full of flattery.
"You didn't come here because you thought I had nowhere to go after I wiped out the Ming Lu family!"
"Well done! I've always disliked them. They're a bunch of old guys who only care about having fun all day and don't care about our lives at all."
It is not known whether Lu Yihou's words were sincere or false. Judging from the fact that he fought desperately and was one of the few survivors in the mining area, Guangchang County needs to protect him. As for returning to his hometown, there are also relevant documents.
"Alright, you guys can stay, but forget about the mountain. Stay down there and do the freight. The situation has been very chaotic lately, and merchants often ask us to be their escorts."
Langya originally started out by escorting goods, but now both routes are difficult to operate, and the escort can only go towards Zhuozhou and Yanzhou.
"This is our old profession! We brothers are very familiar with this business!"
Lu Yihou rubbed his hands and laughed, looking extremely funny.
"Hey! Today's Post Station dinner, you guys came at the perfect time!"
A waiter came over and saw Lu Yihou and his men coming, so he said jokingly.
"General Chen, is this dinner today?"
The mining area is managed in the military way. Zhao Sheng’s new army has the terms “snacks”, “big meals”, “platters” and “simple meals”. Big meals are standard meals with meat.
"How long has it been since you last had meat? Aren't you enforcing the food standards?"
Looking at Lu Yihou's greedy look, he learned that these people had been in the military camp for some time and were only allowed to come out recently because the war had eased a little.
"The military town's food supply has been destroyed, and Guangchang County has been without food for some time."
The person following beside him said helplessly.
"No, Dingzhou County doesn't..."
Chen Da stopped talking halfway. He hadn't received the "Expressway Evening News" for several days. It seemed that something might have happened in Luancheng.
Why didn’t anyone order Langya to stop stockpiling grain?
Chen Da thought to himself that the existence of Langya was originally for storing food in the periphery. Such a big thing happened, but no one came to inform him.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He wanted to send someone over to inquire, but he didn't want to act on his own without receiving any orders.
"Lord Lu Yi, I have a task for you. If you do it well, I guarantee that no one will bother you in this area from now on."
Lu Yihou laughed and thought to himself: Aren’t you the ones who are causing trouble...
