I Have 800,000 Private Soldiers. The Emperor Forces Me to Hand over Military Power?

Chapter 150: Sleeping on Straw and Tasting Gall, Ambition Begins to Show

Inside Mozhou City, the new Tiger Army camp.

While the generals under the command of Jin Wang Chen Huaian broke out in conflicts and clashes on the attacking side, the new Tiger Army defending Mozhou City, after solving the food and salary problem, also ushered in new conflicts and problems.

The actual ruler of the Daxin court, Prime Minister Qin Ruhui, issued an order to let the new Minister of War Huang Silang rush to Mozhou overnight to supervise the war on behalf of the court.

At this moment, the Minister of War Huang Silang has "occupied the magpie's nest" and sat on the main seat of the central army tent that originally belonged to the general commander of the Daxin court, the mighty general Wu Sanjia.

Huang Silang tasted the best West Lake Longjing tea and asked slowly: "General Wu, when will the army go out of the city to quell the Longcheng rebels?"

Go out of the city, quell the rebellion?

These two words immediately made Wu Sanjia and the deputy general Zhao Kui feel like they were struck by lightning. Their heads buzzed and exploded, and their bodies unconsciously straightened.

Zhao Kui tentatively replied: "Sir Huang, do you mean to let the new Hu Ben army stationed in Mozhou City take the initiative to go out of the city to fight the Longcheng rebels?"

"What else?"

Huang Silang glanced at Zhao Kui and said unhappily: "General Zhao, as far as I know, the Longcheng rebels besieging the city are only 350,000 soldiers;"

"In this Mozhou city, there are 250,000 new Hu Ben troops. Shouldn't they take the initiative to go out of the city and fight to the death with the Longcheng rebels?"

At this point, Huang Silang turned his eyes to the new Hu Ben army commander Wu Sanjia, and continued in an aggressive tone: "General Wu, the 8 million taels of silver from the court have long been allocated to your Hu Ben. In the army;"

"At the beginning, you, General Wu, promised to Prime Minister Qin and the current emperor that you would lead the army to the north as soon as the salary arrived!"

"Why, now that you have received the silver, have you forgotten your original promise to the north?"

"Sir Huang, I will never forget your promise to the north to quell the rebellion and recover the lost territory!"

Wu Sanjia said calmly: "But the north to quell the rebellion also requires strategy and timing, rather than rushing around like a headless fly;"

"At present, 350,000 Longcheng rebels have gathered outside Mozhou City, and the leader is the traitor Chen Huaian. If you rashly lead the army out of the city to fight, you may fall into Chen Huaian's evil plan. "

Humph!

Huang Silang, the Minister of War, said with a fake smile: "Then please tell me, General Wu, when can the new Hu Ben army in Mozhou go out of the city to the north to quell the rebellion?"

"This official, so that I can give an explanation to Prime Minister Qin and the emperor!"

Wu Sanjia still looked neither humble nor arrogant, and replied indifferently: "Sir Huang, leading troops to fight is no child's play. When the time is right, I will lead the troops to the north to quell the rebellion!"

"Sir Huang, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first!"

After saying that, Wu Sanjia turned around and left the central army tent without caring about Huang Silang's reaction.

Seeing this, Deputy General Zhao Kui also got up and left without saying a word.

Only the Minister of War Huang Silang was left in the big tent, pounding his hands and stamping his feet in anger, shouting: "Lawless, this group of arrogant soldiers is simply lawless;"

"Come here, bring pen and ink, I want to draft a memorial to Prime Minister Qin and the current emperor!"

"Yes, sir!"

......

As soon as Wu Sanjia left, the deputy general Zhao Kui followed him.

After getting close to Wu Sanjia, he lowered his voice and said: "General, this Huang Silang really took a chicken feather as a command arrow, and dared to command the general to do things and teach the general to lead troops to fight;"

Hmph!

Zhao Kui snorted coldly and continued: "Everyone in the Daxin court knows that Huang Silang is a flatterer. He relied on flattering Prime Minister Qin to get from being a clerk in the Ministry of War to the position of Minister of War;"

"Don't you think it's good for Huang Silang to be a mascot in the position of Minister of War?"

"Now that the war is imminent, he still has to jump out to show his presence, which is simply disgusting!"

"General Zhao, please say less!"

Wu Sanjia was open-minded and waved his hand and said: "After all, Prime Minister Qin spent 8 million taels of real money on our Tiger Guards;"

"Of course, I also want to gain some political capital from our new Tiger Army in a short period of time."

As he spoke, Wu Sanjia raised his hand and pointed to the wall of Mozhou City, saying: "See, the 350,000 Dragon City rebels outside this wall are the best bargaining chips for Prime Minister Qin to gain political capital in the court;"

"If our new Tiger Army can behead the traitor Chen Huaian and conquer the north to recover the lost territory, Qin Ruhui's position as the emperor will be really secure!"

Uh...

General Wu Sanjia's remarks immediately surprised Zhao Kui, the deputy general, and he was unbelievable.

In his impression, the general has always regarded Prime Minister Qin as his lord, and even when Prime Minister Qin owed the Tiger Army food and wages, he still had no complaints about him.

Today's remarks overturned Zhao Kui's cognition.

Haha!

Wu Sanjia suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly, looked at his deputy general Zhao Kui and said, "Why, do you think that I have changed and dare to say such treasonous words?"

Yes!

Zhao Kui nodded honestly.

Wu Sanjia said, "Before this, I have been pretending to be nice to Qin Ruhui, just to get the salary, pension and military reward that the soldiers of the Tiger Guards under my command deserve!"

"Now, I have enough money and food to support 300,000 new Tiger Soldiers for half a year. Why should I look at Qin Ruhui's face?"

"Who doesn't know that the treacherous minister Qin Ruhui deceived his superiors and subordinates to steal the country in the new court?"

"Such disloyal and unfilial people should be punished by everyone. How could I be in collusion with them?"

As he said this, Wu Sanjia patted the shoulder of his deputy general Zhao Kui, looked at him seriously, and said solemnly: "General Zhao, now that things have come to this, it's time for us to consider what to do for the 300,000 Tiger Soldiers under our command!"

When he heard what Wu Sanjia said, Zhao Kui, the deputy general, felt his blood boiling and was extremely excited.

He even swallowed his saliva.

Afterwards, he immediately bowed to Wu Sanjia and said, "General, I, Zhao Kui, have come this far thanks to your support;"

"In the future, no matter what choice the general makes, I, Zhao Kui, will follow you through life and death, and will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

At this moment, Wu Sanjia's rough face finally revealed his long-hidden ambition and desire.

Born in troubled times and holding a large army, how could he be controlled by others?

He Qin Ruhui deserves the title of "Emperor Retired", and so do I, Wu Sanjia!
