Chapter 1039: Put down the burden

Chapter 1039: Putting down the burden

Watching the Prime Minister drink the medicine and chatting with him for a while, the Prime Minister's face already showed a faint look of fatigue.

“My health is really bad!”

Zhuge Liang had a wry smile on his face and shook his head:

“I have never felt so tired after dealing with government affairs for a day before.”

Feng Junhou helped the Prime Minister lie down again and said:

"Prime Minister, you also said it was in the past. If you really want me to say, Prime Minister, your body is probably still the root of the disease caused by overwork in the early years. Now, you are just paying off your debt."

The Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty lay down and sighed:

"If I can exchange this for the emperor to return to the old capital, what regrets will I have if I die?"

Feng Junhou glanced at the Han Prime Minister who seemed a little satisfied, and said leisurely:

"I remember that the late emperor entrusted the prime minister to punish the thieves, not only to return the old capital, but also to restore the Han Dynasty. Chang'an has just been recovered, is this called no regrets?"

The Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty was startled and raised his eyes to look at Feng Junhou.

After a moment of silence, the Han Prime Minister suddenly asked quietly:

"My memory is not very good. Have I entrusted you with something? Come closer and explain it to me carefully and remind me."

So I asked you to revive the Han Dynasty, are you telling me this now?

Hands subconsciously groped around, but there was nothing next to the couch.

I forgot that I haven’t seen the sand table in a few days.

Without a sandbox, there would be no whip…

So the Prime Minister could only watch Feng Junhou holding the medicine bowl and pushing the door open.

After leaving the Prime Minister's ward and returning to his temporary office, Deputy Chief of Staff Zhang Yuan immediately sent a lot of documents and reported at the same time:

“Chief of the mountain, General Li has something to ask for. He has been waiting for half an hour.”

“General Li? Haoxuan? Please invite him in quickly.”

)

Li Feng was quickly brought in.

“Haoxuan, why are you here?”

Feng Junhou poured him hot tea himself, "But what's the matter?"

Li Feng was not too polite. Before he could sit firmly, he said directly:

“Brother, there is something wrong with the food for the army outside the city.”

"What!" Governor Feng's heart skipped a beat, "What's going on? Didn't you say there was enough food and grass?"

Food and grass are the most important thing in the army, and there is no room for any mistakes.

With the strong transportation capacity of Dongfeng Express, dry food has been continuously improved, and the prime minister even harvested a season of grain in Wuzhangyuan.

It is also related to the fact that when sergeants come to work for the army, they will definitely donate some food and grass to support the army.

So logically speaking, there should be no shortage of food and grass.

There was a hint of worry on Li Feng's face: "There is indeed no shortage of food and grass, but there are some problems with the distribution of food and grass."

Hearing that it was not a shortage of food and grass, Feng Junhou breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked:

“What’s wrong with the distribution of grain and grass?”

“Today, food and grass were not distributed to all camps in time.”

Speaking of this, Li Feng's face looked a little ugly.

 He is the grain and grass officer. If grain and grass cannot be distributed in time, the soldiers will not care about any problems in the intermediate links. They will only think that this is the grain and grass officer's dereliction of duty.

But in fact, Li Feng, the grain and grass officer, was mainly responsible for coordinating the transportation of grain from the rear, receiving the grain that was counted and transported, and distributing grain to each camp according to the established rules.

At present, food and grass cannot be distributed in time because Li Feng has not received the military order to distribute food to each battalion.

“Who is responsible for allocating food and grass in the army?”

“Yang Changshi.”

“I knew it was him!” Feng Junhou smacked the table angrily, “Putting personal anger above official business, you old man!”

"Is he deceiving me that I have no one? If Amei were here... Humph!"

Feng Junhou's face turned gloomy, "Why didn't Mr. Yang Wei perform his duties? He delayed military affairs. Do you really think I dare not chop off his head?"

Li Feng smiled bitterly: "Brother, I asked him before I came here. He was sick last night. He said he had a cold."

Hearing this, Feng Junhou's face became even more gloomy.

In this weather, it is not easy to get cold.

But you still can’t find anything wrong with it.

After all, this is an emergency.

"The deployment of grain and grass is a major military matter. Shouldn't it be prepared in advance? He used to deploy grain and grass. How can he still decide on the same day?"

Li Feng nodded: "That's true. Over the years, Yang Weigong has assisted the Prime Minister in handling military affairs, planning divisions, and organizing grain and grain. It's just a matter of course."

Feng Junhou:…

“Dueleilou!”

No wonder Zhuge Lao Yao relies on him so much.

You don’t need to think too much when dealing with things, you can just open your mouth and give the result.

Feng Junhou himself wanted such a quick-thinking staff officer.

It's just that the other party took advantage of this loophole by relying on his own talent. It was obvious that he was trying to make Feng Junhou look bad.

“Zhang Yuan!”

“Chief of the mountain?”

“Where is General Guan?”

“General Guan has left the city to inspect the military camp.”

Li Feng also whispered:

"Just now, while I was waiting for my brother, my sister-in-law... well, General Guan learned about this and left the city early."

Well, at the last moment, it turned out that my mother-in-law was still reliable.

The prime minister has a history of accompanying the army commander to help handle military affairs, and Feng Junhou is not bad either. He also has relevant generals to help handle military affairs.

Otherwise, if you really want to rely entirely on the Prime Minister's previous team, it would be weird if you don't have to be manipulated to death.

Feng Junhou is self-aware: no matter how great his military achievements are, he cannot conceal his qualifications. Is it possible to completely convince the old men in the army?

Expect everyone to be selfless?

Dream!

"General Guan can suppress the Liangzhou army, but he may not be able to suppress the soldiers led by the prime minister."

Having been married for ten years, they can understand each other without having to say many words.

Feng Junhou knew that General Guan might be delaying time for himself.

Although my mother-in-law may not be in danger, even if the army encounters a big problem, there are still two brothers-in-law, Zhang Bao and Zhang Bao in the army.

However, the generals of each battalion may not have no resentment in their hearts because the food and grass cannot be distributed in time.

As soon as he thought of this, Feng Junhou’s teeth chattered and he stood up suddenly:

“Zhang Yuan!”

“Chief of the mountain?”

“Take all the staff and follow me!”

Coming from Tongguan, in addition to the relevant generals escorting more than a thousand fine cavalry, Feng Junhou was accompanied by more than a dozen army staff, most of whom were students from the martial arts hall.

When General Guan goes out to inspect the camp, he must lead his elite cavalry.

“Brother, do you want to tell the Prime Minister about this matter first?”

Li Feng stood up and suggested.

Feng Junhou shook his head:

"The Prime Minister has just fallen asleep, so don't disturb me. Besides, the Prime Minister has asked me to temporarily take charge of all matters in Guanzhong. If I have to ask the Prime Minister to intervene when something happens, how do you want others to see me?"

With the prime minister’s temperament, knowing that this happened in the army, he definitely couldn’t help but take care of it himself.

But with his current physical condition, can he still be able to withstand the hard work?

Besides, since ancient times, the transfer of power between the old and the new has never been smooth sailing without disturbances.

If you want to become a real leader after the Prime Minister, you don't just rely on the Prime Minister's designation, but you have to rely on your own ability.

Otherwise, it would not be Feng Junhou but Ma Su who would be temporarily in charge of the military affairs of the Hanzhong army today.

Of course, Feng Junhou would not say all these words. He just gestured:

“Haoxuan, you lead the way to the camp outside the city.”

Feng Yong is no stranger to the camp outside the city.

During the days when he was temporarily in charge of all matters in Guanzhong, he also came here several times.

However, since it was a temporary leader, he did not need to make a big move against the Hanzhong army. Basically, Cao followed Xiao's rules and acted according to the previous rules.

Moreover, it has been decided in Guanzhong that the Liangzhou Army will be stationed in Tongguan and other places in the east of Bingzhou River. Feng Yong, who is in Chang'an, does not have enough manpower around him to deploy.

After all, most of the Hanzhong army was trained by the prime minister himself, so in theory there won't be any big problems.

I didn’t expect that King Feng Gui was too kind, and I didn’t expect that someone would dare to cause problems on purpose.

Outside Chang'an City, heavy snow piled up, as if the distance between heaven and earth had become shorter.

The densely packed thorn branches on the hillside by the roadside are covered with pure white snow. They are as hairy as deer antlers and intertwined into various patterns. The jade trees and silver flowers are as beautiful as picturesque.

The scenery is so beautiful, but Feng Junhou's mood is not very beautiful.

Braving the severe cold and large amounts of snow and fog rising along the way, dozens of riders rushed to the gate of the military camp.

Looking at the closed village gate, Feng Junhou threw out a tiger charm. Zhang Yuan caught it, came to the wall of the village, and shouted loudly:

"Feng Junhou wants to enter the camp, open the camp gate quickly!"

The sentry on the watchtower in the village had long seen Feng Junhou's flag. The soldiers at the gate of the village immediately opened the gate after checking the tiger talisman.

Horses are not allowed to ride in the camp except under special circumstances. Feng Junhou and others got off their horses and led their horses in.

Before they had gone far, General Guan, who got the news, came out to greet them.

"How is it going?"

Although I believed that nothing serious would happen in the army, Junhou Feng was relieved when he saw that everything in the camp was in order and General Guan's face was calm.

"I have gathered all the captains from all the camps to the middle camp, and I will wait for the prince to come over and deal with this matter."

Hearing this, Feng Junhou nodded: "Let's go and have a look. By the way, how is the situation in the army?"

General Guan nodded: "Everything is fine."

"That's good."

If today has not passed, it is not considered a delay in releasing food.

As long as it can be handled in time, this matter is not a big deal.

Feng Junhou was relieved, but General Guan's face became a little unsightly. At this time, he was surrounded by his own people, so he had no worries. He only heard General Guan say:

“Could Yang Yi have planned this matter in advance and deliberately embarrass you?”

Feng Junhou entered the camp and became more relaxed. He smiled:

"If he had the intention to undermine my prestige in the military, he should not do such a thing at this time."

“So I believe that he disregarded the general situation, acted on his own impulse, and ignored public affairs because of personal grudges.”

If Yang Yi really had some political sensitivity, he would not have played all his good cards to pieces and ended up in jail and committed suicide in the original history.

To put it bluntly, he is a political idiot.

Zhuge Laoyao is Adou's father-in-law, so he must be careful in what he says and does to avoid being offended.

Who do you think you are, Yang Yi? No matter how great your contribution is, can it be greater than that of the prime minister?

How dare you openly complain about unfair treatment and threaten to regret not leading troops to surrender to Wei?

At that time, the prime minister entrusted him with most of the troops in the Shu Han Dynasty.

Without that army, the Shu Han would have been destroyed.

In other words, the little fat man had a good temper, so he was exiled to a border county. If he were to be replaced by someone like Sun Shiwan and Cao Pi, wouldn't his whole family be dead?

Logically speaking, anyone with some political intelligence should restrain themselves at this point.

Unexpectedly, he was still unconvinced and directly wrote a letter to slander and curse. Are you really bullying Adou because he is an honest person and won't get angry?

In the final analysis, the political environment of Shu Han is too relaxed, and some people are protected too well.

If we really change it to Wei and Wu, the fate of batch after batch of losers in political struggles will let the remaining people know what honesty means.

"I don't know much about marching and fighting, but as long as the general is here, there is no need to worry. But when it comes to this matter of baggage and food, I don't believe there is anyone in the world who knows better than me."

“It’s not like Yang Yi doesn’t know that Nanxiang’s arithmetic is the best in the world. If he really thinks that this matter of arranging food and grass is difficult for me, then he won’t become a person whom the prime minister relies on.”

Feng Junhou is a general who has led the army for more than ten years. He is not a rookie in the army, so he naturally knows a lot about the affairs of the army.

Coupled with the famous Nanxiang arithmetic skills, no one with a normal IQ would think that the mere allocation of grain and grass would be difficult to defeat Feng Junhou.

Not to mention that Yang Yi exchanged all her EQ for IQ.

That's why Feng Junhou thought that Yang Yi was simply venting his anger. At most, he was just trying to show off his anger.

To say that he had a premeditated plan is really to praise him.

“Haoxuan, go prepare food and grass now and distribute them at any time.”

Seeing the military camp, Feng Junhou ordered.

)

Dozens of battalion captains stood in front of the big tent, and it was completely dark.

Seeing Feng Junhou leading the people over, their expressions were a little complicated.

Those in the army value military merit the most.

Feng Junhou has made great achievements in battle. He fought thousands of miles away from the first battle in Guanzhong, which is even more comparable to that of the champion.

 They are just middle-level generals and not big men in the army. How can they say they are not convinced by Feng Junhou?

But the sky is big and the earth is big, food is the biggest.

The food and grass distribution started in the morning, but now most of the day has passed, and there is still no news, which inevitably makes people feel a little bit murmuring.

For the middle and lower-level soldiers, if food and grass cannot be distributed in time, causing them to go hungry, then Feng Junhou will not be considered a good commander no matter how great his military exploits are.

Feng Junhou naturally knew this, so he ignored them and asked his personal guards to guard outside the tent, and then entered the tent with his staff.

Wei Yan, Wu Ban, Zhang Bao, Guan Xing, Meng Yan and other major military generals have been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Junhou Feng come in, everyone's expressions were different from those of the soldiers outside.

Except for Wei Yan, whose face was expressionless, most of the others showed more or less concern.

Feng Junhou nodded to them, walked to the main seat, and smiled apologetically:

“There are a lot of things to do, so I’ve been delayed for half a day. I’m sorry to thank you all for waiting.”

“Let’s put the grain out first, and we’ll talk about other things later.”

Wei Yan lowered his eyes and said calmly.

"That's right, the soldiers are all waiting. Let's put out the food first, and the rest will be easy to deal with."

Guan Xing said quickly.

Feng Junhou nodded.

Then he motioned to Zhang Yuan:

“Go and bring up all the account books from each camp in the army.”

Putting out food does not mean just dividing it according to the head.

The duty and combat readiness of each battalion are different, and the amount of food distributed is also different.

In addition to the sick lieutenants and soldiers, as well as bean feed for army horses, etc., they must be distributed as appropriate.

This job is not difficult if you learn arithmetic.

But it is very cumbersome, time-consuming and requires great patience.

Now, what Feng Junhou lacks most is time and patience.

Because even if you are good at arithmetic, the first time you deploy the food and grass for the Hanzhong army, because you are not familiar with it, the progress will not be too fast, and it is easy to make mistakes.

Fortunately, he has a staff group.

“Calculate, come and do the math. Your task today is to calculate all the grain and grass that each battalion should be issued. If anyone makes a mistake in the calculation, he can go back to the martial arts hall to make up for the exam.”

For others, this matter may be a nuisance.

But for Feng Junhou, it was simply a trivial matter.

Yang Yi’s behavior is mainly disgusting.

After giving the instructions, Feng Junhou sat down on the main seat and looked up at the roof of the tent, not caring about the people below.

Others thought that Feng Junhou was in a bad mood, but they didn't know that there was a gloomy look in his eyes at this time.

No, we have to send someone to urge them and ask the Liangzhou staff to come as soon as possible.

Yang Yi, since you have put down your burden and don’t want to do it, then don’t do it anymore.

I’ll let you have your leisure time in advance!
