"My lord, the rebellious Zhang Yun and others fled into the Hanhai territory. We were intercepted by the Hanhai patrol team, so we had to retreat."
"The humble post did not recover the treason, and I ask the leader of the army to punish him."
In the official office of the command headquarters of the fifth army regiment in the Baimaguan field battle, a banner battalion commander reported to the army commander Wang Cheng unwillingly.
"You have tried your best, and I don't blame you if you can't catch up. Go down and rest first."
Legion Commander Wang Cheng did not blame the Banner Battalion Commander. After all, if it weren't for Li Mingyi and others, he would probably die now.
"Zhang Yun and others made trouble, but I, as the head of the legion, didn't notice it, so that I let them succeed."
"If it weren't for Deputy Commander Zhang's efforts to turn the tide, the White Horse might be in danger."
Legion Commander Wang Cheng had capsized in the gutter this time, so he felt quite self-blame in his heart.
After all, he was ordered to guard Baimaguan, an important town on the eastern border of the empire, and he was to blame for such a big incident this time.
"I will write a detailed submission to the imperial court later. As for how the imperial court deals with me, I will accept it."
"This time I took the main responsibility and almost made a big mistake, so I am no longer suitable to continue commanding the fifth field army."
"Before the court's decree arrives, I suggest that Deputy Army Chief Zhang take the temporary post of Field Army Fifth Army Chief and be responsible for guarding Baima Pass."
Wang Cheng, the head of the army, looked at the officers of the fifth field army in the official hall, who had lost half of them. He also conducted a self-reflection and decided to dismiss himself.
Wang Cheng also believed some rumors at the beginning, so he also had a lot of doubts about the court.
So that when Xu Rui, Zhang Yun and others expressed dissatisfaction with the imperial court, he did not realize their intentions in time.
If he could express his attitude in time, it is estimated that the following things would not happen.
As the deputy commander of the army, Zhang Bao knew that Wang Cheng was indeed careless this time, but he was also very surprised to see that Wang Cheng quit the job.
"Master Legion Leader, this matter is due to the ambition of Xu Rui and others. They want to plot rebellion. It has nothing to do with Lord Legion Leader. Lord Legion Leader does not need to blame himself." Zhang Bao persuaded.
"Now that Zhang Yun and others have fled to the territory of Hanhai, they are bound to collude with Hanhai. Maybe the army of Hanhai will approach the city in the near future. At this time, Baimaguan still needs the commander of the army to sit in charge."
Although Zhang Bao tried his best to turn the tide and put down the rebellion this time, he knew that his prestige was not as good as Wang Cheng's.
Wang Cheng's prestige at Baima Pass is very high, and it has a great deterrent effect on Hanhai's army. After all, he wiped out Hanhai's entire army at Baima Pass.
After Zhang Bao knew that Wang Cheng was not the mastermind behind this incident, he felt that it would be better for Wang Cheng, the army commander, to command the army.
Without the court's order, I rashly overstepped my authority to take over the Fifth Field Army, which would cause misunderstanding.
"Master Legion, the imperial court has its own conclusion on this incident. Let's talk about it after the imperial court's decree is issued. Now you need to preside over the overall situation."
After hearing Zhang Bao's words, Li Mingyi, head of the 24th Field Banner, also echoed him.
"Yes, Lord Legion, at this critical moment, the Legion cannot sit without you." Zhao Kang, the head of the 25th Banner, also spoke.
Everyone persuaded Wang Cheng, the head of the army, one by one, and Wang Cheng was also quite moved.
"Since you think highly of me so much, I have the right to stay in command for the time being."
Under the persuasion of the generals, Wang Cheng, the head of the army, finally compromised, that is, to stay in the position of head of the army temporarily.
"After this incident, the strength of our Baima Pass has been greatly weakened. The most urgent task is to rectify the defense to prevent the sneak attack from the vast sea."
After staying in the post of army commander, army leader Wang Cheng also re-entered the role, and was very concerned about the safety of Baima Pass.
"From now on, Baimaguan has entered the first level of security. Except for my warrant, no one is allowed to enter or leave at will."
As a key pass in the eastern part of the empire, Baima Pass is also an important passage connecting the Hanhai Dynasty.
On weekdays, there are still many merchants and travelers passing by. Now for the safety of Baima Pass, Wang Cheng directly announced the retreat.
"Send additional scout teams to strengthen the monitoring of Hanhai's army movements. If there is any change, report it immediately!"
"Leader Li Qi, you go to the 22nd and 23rd Banner regiments to sit in town,?? The two flag groups are being rectified, and I will contact the people from the Intelligence Investigation Institute to assist you. "
"Immediately report the situation to Commander Zhou Ting, and ask them to respond if Hanhai attacks our White Horse Pass
Legion Commander Wang Cheng also quickly issued a series of orders to deploy, and the entire Baima Pass also quickly moved.
Zhang Bao, deputy head of the army, temporarily commanded the 24th Field Banner Regiment, responsible for the defense of Baima Pass.
? Li Mingyi, head of the 24th Banner regiment, was dedicated to rectifying the 22nd and 23rd Banner regiments that had committed rebellion.
These two banner regiments lost more than 2,000 people in the battle, and more than a thousand people fled to Hanhai territory under the threat of Zhang Yun. However, the two banner regiments had 40,000 troops and were not injured.
When Wang Cheng, the head of the legion, told them to lay down their weapons, he said that they should let the past go, but they still have to clean up some of the key elements of the rebellion.
Li Mingyi's task this time is to reorganize the two flag groups ideologically, and at the same time get rid of some unstable elements.
Fortunately, most of the officers and soldiers of these two banner regiments supported the imperial court, but they were blinded by Zhang Yun, Xu Rui and others at that time.
Now the brothers of these two banner groups can be said to be uneasy and very self-blame.
They are also guilty of rebellion, which is a serious crime. Although the army commander Wang Cheng promised them to forget the past, in fact they don't know how the court will deal with them, and they are now panicked.
Li Mingyi, the head of the banner, summoned all these brothers, gave them a lecture, and comforted them.
Although Li Mingyi didn't know how the imperial court would deal with them, but the current strength of Baimaguan was insufficient, if these tens of thousands of people were incited, they would be a ticking time bomb.
So now he can only try to appease them as much as possible, and temporarily take care of some officers promoted by former banner chief Xu Rui and Zhang Yun to prevent them from fanning the flames again.
When Baimaguan was dealing with the aftermath of the incident, hoping to minimize the impact, Hanhai was also ready to move.
In particular, Zhang Yun, the former commander of the 23rd Banner of the Qinghe Army, fled to the territory of Hanhai, and was personally received by Gu Yulan, the commander of the Hanhai Fire Phoenix Army.
Knowing that the White Horse Pass has just experienced a battle, when the army's morale is unstable and chaotic, the leader of the Fire Phoenix Army thinks this is a good opportunity to occupy the White Horse Pass.
As a senior member of the Hanhai Army, Gu Yulan, the head of the Fire Phoenix Army, knows that the Hanhai Dynasty is conspiring with several surrounding countries to form a coalition to deal with the Far East Empire.
If she can lead her troops to capture Baima Pass, then she can use it as a springboard to attack the Far East Empire, and she can win the top spot.
Therefore, Gu Yulan, the head of the Fire Phoenix Army, also urgently mobilized 20 field teams, and pressed up in the direction of the White Horse Pass overnight, hoping to find an opportunity to capture the White Horse Pass. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
