Chapter 255 True and False Second Place 27
The emperor crumpled the scroll, and the King of Chu's heart trembled suddenly.
A voice in his heart told him that if he couldn't please his father this time, he would have no chance of getting the higher position.
The King of Chu knelt on the ground involuntarily and said, "Father, I am willing to go and attack the Tartar army and protect the people of Daliang."
Seeing the King of Chu stand up, the other princes also knelt down and begged for orders.
The emperor glanced at several princes and finally stopped at the King of Chu.
"Okay, my son is here to share your worries. Your Majesty is very pleased. I will order the King of Chu to gather 150,000 troops and head to the Western Frontier today."
"Yes, son, I will obey your command."
When the King of Chu went to the border to gather his army, Hang Songyue was also transferred out, and the Hang family was very worried.
Before the troops move, food and fodder must go first. Food and fodder for an army of 150,000 is a huge amount of supplies.
"Tianma Xingkong" was summoned by the imperial court to transport grain.
In Marquis Wei'an's mansion, Marquis Wei'an laughed loudly.
"Shen Mo, you made me lose fifty thousand taels of silver. Now I want your life."
That's right, it was he who proposed to recruit Shen Mo to transport grain. This time, the King of Chu was the commander-in-chief, and Marquis Wei An was also appointed as an aide to discuss matters.
Afterwards, Marquis Wei An realized that the opportunity for revenge had come.
He was cheated of a painting worth 50,000 taels of silver by the King of Chu, and he did not dare to hate the King of Chu. He could only blame Shen Mo for all the new and old grudges.
As for the King of Chu, as long as his plan was not destroyed and Marquis Wei An was allowed to vent his anger, there was nothing wrong with that as long as he could use him better.
It is also a good opportunity to let all those who follow him see that as long as they are his people, he will protect them and can deal with anyone he wants.
"Shen Mo, you'd better be careful when you go to the border this time. You have to be prepared that after the food and grass are delivered to the border, the King of Chu's gang will forcibly conscript all your people to fight and use them as cannon fodder." Sun Youtai received the news and hurried to discuss with Shen Mo.
Unfortunately, his current official position is too low and he cannot be Shen Mo's backer.
"It's okay. If they want my life, it depends on whether they have the ability to take it." Shen Mo still had confidence in this.
Moreover, he had already learned from Fat Cat that the person who came up with this idea was Marquis Wei An.
Wei Anhou was seeking death, so he would help him. What else could he do? !
Food and fodder for an army of 150,000 is a huge amount.
The teams transporting food and fodder were divided into several groups, mainly logistics personnel in the army, and most of them were conscripted civilians.
The team Shen Mo was in was a grain transport team of 500 people.
There were about one hundred official logistics troops, and the other four hundred were all civilian laborers.
Fifty people came over with Shen Mo's carriage and were all in the team.
The further northwest you go, the more desolate it becomes.
Fortunately, we arrived at the designated location safely.
Shen Mo and his companions put down the food and were about to leave.
As a result, he was stopped by a guy who looked like a logistics team leader.
"Are you from the Tianma Xingkong Chariot and Horse Company?"
"Yes." Shen Mo stepped forward.
"You can't leave yet. We have orders from above. There is a military construction site here that needs you to stay and repair it."
Shen Mo frowned. Just as he thought, it was not so easy to escape.
"Why, are you frowning because you want to disobey military orders?" The man who looked like a squad leader immediately looked displeased.
It seemed as if he would order his men to arrest Shen Mo and his group if they had any disagreement.
Shen Mo grinned: "No, since it is the order of the superior, we must obey it. I wonder which superior issued this order?"
Just as the team leader was about to get displeased and want to scold Shen Mo, he looked up and met a pair of eyes as dark as a deep well.
Suddenly, the words on his lips turned into a warm smile.
"The commander you are talking about is our grain transport officer Wang Zi."
"Captain, can we go rest now?"
"Of course, of course, your work is done, so go and have a rest!" After saying that, he stamped on Shen Mo's pass.
With the seal above, you can leave the team and go directly back to the capital.
But Shen Mo will not go back to the capital now because what he wants to do has not been completed yet.
The reason why Marquis Wei An was able to frame him was because he took advantage of the power of the King of Chu.
Since according to the original trajectory, something bad would happen to the King of Chu, he might as well let it happen sooner rather than later.
Shen Mo asked the people below to leave first, and he found a local inn to stay in.
But to follow the team leader's suggestion and repair the military construction site is just wishful thinking.
Shen Mo waited in Xijing City for half a month, and the Tartar army had already attacked countless times.
The worst thing was that all the surrounding villages were devastated. All the women and food were robbed by the Tartars, and the children and the elderly were all killed as a burden.
Some of the men were taken away to be forced laborers and slaves, while others were killed.
During this period, Shen Mo witnessed too much cruelty of war.
At night, Shen Mo would run to the Tartar's marching camp and chop off the heads of the most brutal Tartar soldiers he had seen killing civilians during the day.
The two armies fought, but failed to capture the city gates, so they treated the people as prey and punching bags, and drove the people to the city gates, forcing the gatekeepers to succumb to public opinion and open the city gates so that they could rush in and seize control of the city gates.
These people are not as stupid as those seen in movies and TV shows in previous lives. Of course, if they were really stupid, they would not have fought to the death with the Han people of all generations.
The Tartars were also confused and thought that the military camp was haunted recently.
When it was time to sleep, everyone was fine. Dozens of soldiers slept in one tent. But one night, several people in the tent were beheaded.
Some people stay awake all night, waiting for ghosts to come to them.
In the end, no matter how hard they tried, they fell asleep when it was time to fall asleep.
Shen Mo harvested the lives of his enemies at night, just like cutting vegetables and melons.
Things have come to this, and the Tartar general is actually getting a little scared and wants to leave.
If you don’t leave now, no one knows who will be the next.
But strangely enough, when the Tartar generals saw the dead bodies of soldiers during the day, they would usually decide to leave, but once they entered the military tent, they would summon their men and attack the city gates.
So it was natural for these subordinates to think that the general did not want to admit defeat, and they might be looking for a reason to withdraw.
What they didn't know was that there was an extra person in the Tartar general's tent these days, but none of them took this extra person seriously.
The Tartar general promoted one more person in the military tent.
What they didn't know was that this man was the culprit behind the deaths in their military tent that night.
Shen Mo felt too tiring running around every night, so he simply stayed in the military tent.
These days, Shen Moke slept on the Tartar general's bed, while the Tartar general slept on the floor.
As for those in the barracks who noticed him, they were furious in private.
"This person is sleeping in the general's tent. Could he be the general's lover? To be honest, this person is quite delicate and tender."
"So this is for warming the general's bed. If this news is brought back, our girls will cry to death."
Everyone was talking at once, and after they had eaten their fill they began to talk nonsense.
But what does it have to do with Shen Mo?
Can't he sleep on the floor in such cold weather and let the Tartar general sleep on the bed?
This kind of selfless behavior is really not suitable for him.
