Chapter 167 Gifts
"So, Xiao Yuanming wants to ask us to send troops?"

"Master Mingjian! The envoy also sent generous gifts and a letter written by Xiao Yuanming!"

Fan Yin had already handed over the letter.

Wang Jing opened it casually, and found that Xiao Yuanming's handwriting was pretty good. After reading the letter, he smiled even wider, "Haha, this Xiao Yuanming has a somewhat flexible posture!"

"He actually said directly that he wanted to defect to me, just to save his life and property..."

From the lines in this letter, Wang Jing could feel the fear in Xiao Yuanming's heart, and what made him even more happy was that Xiao Yuanming did not choose to surrender to Yuan Shu and Zhang Guiba.

Instead, I chose Sihong.

The strength of the Nanliang army is not very good, especially the army in the later period of Nanliang, it can't match the elite, but they are an army after all, and there are many civilians and soldiers.

If he can annex the Nanliang army and then swallow the Tang army, the number of soldiers and civilians under Wang Jing's command will exceed one million!

"Send someone to tell General Li to speed up the reorganization and dispatch troops tomorrow!"

Wang Jing put away the letter and made a decision in his heart.

Fan Yin took the order solemnly.

After he left, Wang Jing's ears moved slightly, and he heard some sounds from the backyard. He frowned slightly, and looked across the pavilion towards the courtyard.

I saw more than a dozen loads of gold and silver treasures being counted by several maids.

There are also [-] beautiful women standing aside obediently. Their bodies are graceful and their skin is like snow, although they are not as beautiful as Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao.

But they are all first-class beauties.

"What's going on? Who are they?"

Wang Jing grabbed a maid and asked.

"General, this is brought by Mr. Fan, who said that they are all gifts from the envoy..." the maid said hastily.

"Gift, send me a beauty?"

The corner of Wang Jing's mouth twitched slightly, is this going to test me?I just married Qiao and Qiao at the same time, so Xiao Yuanming thought I was a hungry ghost?

This is simply slander!

"These four stay in the inner courtyard, and the other women are placed in the side courtyard first!"

Wang Jing casually ordered four women with the most outstanding looks to be his maids.

The other dozen or so women, he plans to bestow upon meritorious ministers after this great war.He is married now, but many generals under his command are still single.

If a general who is single and has no family members suddenly wants to defect, he doesn't even have a means of restraint.

As a monarch, he must care about the major life events of his generals.

Let them marry a wife and have children in Sihong, and take root thoroughly.

……

Day two.

The morning sun was warm and the weather was excellent. The gate of Quiren City was wide open, and the sound of horseshoes and footsteps gradually resounded in the city. I saw a team of captain spearmen with their spears on their shoulders, wearing red clothes, lined up neatly , and strode away towards the outside of the city.

"It's really the teacher of the king!"

On a restaurant near the city gate, several people were watching.

Among them is the middle-aged man who is the envoy sent by Xiao Yuanming, Xiao Fang, who is the leader of the Southern Liang Army and a member of the Xiao clan.

The few people around him are both civil and military.

The civil servants are all scholars who have taken refuge in the Nanliang army, and the generals are Xiao's confidantes.

Several civil servants were visibly shocked when they saw a team of captain spearmen and sword-shield soldiers constantly leaving the city.

no way.

Both Zhang Lin and Zhang Guiba were great generals in the late Tang Dynasty. They had a strong aura of arrogant soldiers and mighty generals. One is amazing.

These civil servants knew Xiao Yuanming's abilities, but they still fled to Nanliang like moths flying to the flame, just because they wanted to get Xiao Yuanming's protection.

From the soldiers of the Tang army and the enemy?

After struggling in this world for so long, they can tell the difference between the temperament of the unruly soldiers and the normal army.

Viewed from a height.

Teams of soldiers form a team of hundreds of people, each surrounded by a general flag, and the crimson flag is like a cloud, like a crimson ocean, filling everyone's eyes.

As the saying goes, once there are more than ten thousand people, there is no limit. Of the [-] soldiers and horses of the Sihong Army, [-] of them are stationed outside the city, and the [-] soldiers in the city are the reorganized Chinese army!

It took more than half an hour just to get out of the city.

However, the people on both sides of the streets in the city, as well as the literati who watched from high places, did not feel tired.

Seeing that Sihong soldiers are full of energy and look alive and well.

More confidence was born in the hearts of the people.

Several generals under Xiao's command in the restaurant, after seeing the military spirit of Sihong's soldiers, had to admit that Sihong's army was indeed very important.

"A teacher of the king... I hope General Zhennan can successfully defeat Yuan Shu and Zhang Guiba! Judging by the momentum of these soldiers, the chances of winning should not be low!"

Xiao Mian said.

Everyone sighed, Yuan Shu and Zhang Guiba teamed up, and the pressure on the Nanliang army was not small.

These days, all normal civil servants and military generals will use various means to inquire about the origins of the major forces around them, as well as the historical experience of the masters of the forces.

This is all normal.

The wise emperors and virtuous ministers in history, after their rebirth in the mainland of China, in addition to their own strength, their reputation in history is also a great wealth for them.

Just like after Li Shimin came, there must be many civil servants and generals from other dynasties who took the initiative to defect because of his reputation.

Heroic princes with a bad reputation will be backlashed by their reputation in history.

Just like Yuan Shu.

Anyone who is a scholar will know Cao Cao's evaluation of him, and the dead bones in the tomb will be recorded in the annals of history!

Except for Yuan Shu's own team, normal-minded talents would not choose to work under Yuan Shu's command. Even if they did, they had no choice but to survive, and they definitely had no sincerity.

Zhang Guiba's ability is not bad, he is indeed an outstanding general.

But his banner and the troops under his command are also notorious!The Grass Army in the late Tang Dynasty was far inferior to the Yellow Turban Army in terms of reputation.

Xiao Yuanming was born in the Xiao family of Lanling, which is a top family.

The uncle of the family is Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang who dominated the south in history. He is not very capable, but the pride of being a top family and royal family has not disappeared.

In order to survive and rely on Zhang Guiba, it is already a last resort.

With options available.

Yuan Shu and Wang Jing are two forces, Xiao Yuanming will definitely not defect to Yuan Shu.

Xiao Yuanming has never heard of Wang Jing's name in history books, but he can rule out Yuan Shu's wrong answer first.

Now Xiao Yuanming and Xiao's children are praying for the Sihong army in their hearts.

I hope Wang Jing can successfully defeat the powerful enemy.

"General Zhennan has come out..."

At this time, Wang Jing was wearing heavy armor, riding the five-flowered horses presented by Mu Chun and Chen Da, and went out of the city surrounded by many cavalry.

The people in the city, as well as Xiao Mian and others saw this.

Seeing Wang Jing's confident attitude, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Sometimes, every move of the general will affect the morale of the entire army and the entire force.
