Chapter 283 Pang Juan is entangled
Starting from the capital city of Anyi, the influence of this reform of the military merit system gradually spread to all directions of the Wei State as time went by.
At this moment, Wei State was like a lake with surging undercurrents, and the water in the lake was splashed in all directions by a boulder that seemed to weigh a thousand kilograms.
The farce that happened in Anyi City in front of Situ's Mansion was just one of the splashing drops of lake water.
However, no matter how the impact of the military merit system is fermenting in various parts of the Wei State, the Wei State Army, which is the target of this reform, appears to be very calm at this moment.
At this moment, no one knows how long this calm can last, or whether there will be a thunderous explosion tomorrow.
After thinking clearly about the current situation, both the promoters of the reform and other interested people all turned their attention to several important camps on the land of Wei.
Among them, the most eye-catching one is the camp north of Anyi, on the bank of Sushui River.
Not only is it very close to Anyi, but it is also home to one of Wei's most elite troops.
Wei Wu died.
…
"Hurry up……"
"Follow up, keep up quickly..."
"Hold the weapons in your hands and keep up with the pace of the team in front."
…
Like the soldiers running forward around him, General Pang Jun of Wei at this moment was also wearing several layers of armor, holding a halberd in his hand, and was carrying a bow and arrows and other heavy objects.
While feeling the constant fatigue coming from his body, Pang Juan glanced at the Wei soldiers beside him, and Pang Juan's eyes showed a bit of solemnity.
Pang Juan was not ignorant of what was happening in Anyi City these days, especially the implementation of the military merit system and the controversies it caused.
If he stood up clearly to oppose the reform of the military merit system, it would be a turmoil for the Wei army and even the entire Wei state.
Pang Juan has a very high prestige among the Wei army, and he has a powerful army of Wei soldiers. The bargaining chip in Pang Juan's hand at this moment can be described as rich.
However, Pang Juan, who has so many advantages, has yet to express his opinion, which also makes all parties pay more attention to his choice.
In fact, deep down in his heart, Pang Juan, a man of great talent, could see the advantages of the military merit system, and he also understood that what the Wei army needed at this moment was such a reform to lay a solid foundation.
But being able to see this clearly, Pang Juan, who was sitting in the position of general, could not insist on doing what he wanted. He had to know that there were 100,000 Wei soldiers under his command.
It can be said that in recent days, Pang Juan's mood has been very tangled and contradictory.
In order to alleviate the depression in his heart, and at the same time to minimize the impact of Anyi's rumors on Wei Wuzu, Pang Juan chose to focus entirely on the training of Wei Wuzu.
That is to say, yesterday Pang Juan personally led the soldiers of Wei Wu, starting from the Sushui camp and marching to the west according to the standards selected by Wu Qi in the past. They did not turn back until they reached the river bank.
Along the way, Pang Juan did not ride in a chariot or horse, but marched together with the Wei soldiers on the wide roads of Wei.
The physical fatigue effectively offset part of Pang Juan's melancholy, and also allowed him to understand himself more truly.
However, this long-distance attack did not allow Pang Juan to escape from the current whirlpool. Not long after he returned to the Sushui camp, a personal guard appeared in front of him.
"Report to the General..."
While speaking, the guard hurriedly stepped forward and put his mouth to Pang Juan's ear.
When the other party told the news, Pang Juan's eyes were full of solemnity, "Come with me."
"Here."
A moment later, with the guard closely following him, Pang Juan stood in front of the Chinese army's tent in the Sushui Camp.
Pang Juan was about to step into the big tent, but stopped in his hurry for a moment.
There was a bit of complexity in his eyes, and his left hand subconsciously held the sword at his waist. Pang Juan stood like this in front of the tent for a long time.
It wasn't until he seemed to have made a decision that Pang Juan raised his head and entered the large tent in front of him with steady steps.
"The last general Pang Juan came to see the Prime Minister."
At this moment, in the big tent, Prime Minister Gongsun Qi, who was dressed in red official uniform, was sitting on the throne of the general. What was spread out in front of him was a map west of the river.
When Pang Juan's voice rang in his ears, Gongsun Qi looked away from him with a somewhat thoughtful gaze.
A smile appeared on Gongsun Qi's face, he quickly stood up and came to Pang Juan, and then directly helped him up.
"You don't have to be polite, General. Do you and I still need to be so polite?"
The words that rang in his ears and the figure that appeared in front of him made Pang Juan feel familiar.
It seems that this is not the Wei army camp on the bank of Sushui River, but the place east of Maling, South Korea ten years ago.
It was during that battle that Gongsun Qi entrusted Pang Juan with an important task, which really made this young general who had outstanding performance in the Jibei War come to prominence.
After that, Pang Juan led his soldiers and performed outstandingly in several battles, and this was how he became the current general of Wei.
It can be said that without Gongsun Qi, Pang Juan might still be in a high position, but it would definitely not be so smooth sailing.
This is one of the reasons why the two have always maintained a harmonious relationship.
When a pair of old friends meet again and sit down, it is natural that they will tell some old stories.
There was still some emotion about the battlefield in the past on his face, but Gongsun Qi suddenly changed the subject.
"I wonder what the general thinks of Wei soldiers? How does he think of the entire Wei army? How does he think of the military merit system that is being actively implemented today?"
Gongsun Qi asked in three sentences, and the originally gentle atmosphere in the tent suddenly fell silent.
The nostalgia on Pang Juan's face slowly dissipated with the passage of time, replaced by a calm look on his face.
However, both Gongsun Qi and himself understood that this calm was only temporary.
"If the general chooses to oppose the reform of the military merit system, what will your Majesty and the Prime Minister do?" After holding back for a long time, Pang Juan asked quietly.
Gongsun Qi slowly stood up from his position as commander and walked step by step in front of Pang Juan. Gongsun Qi could see the struggle in his eyes.
"well……"
A long sigh came out of Gongsun Qi's mouth, and his eyes were full of determination and solemnity at this moment.
"The system of military merit and nobility is related to the foundation of our Wei army, and even more important to the future destiny of our country. Both your Majesty and I must carry it forward."
"Even if there are thorns on the road ahead, even if there are huge rocks on the road, we must push it forward."
"I hope you can understand this, Pang Juan."
