Chapter 439 Join
The meeting lasted for a full half day.

But Quanxin and Zhang Quanyi didn't feel that time was passing by at all. Instead, they wondered how it had gotten so dark in the blink of an eye.
The two had personally presided over many such military meetings before, but today, as spectators, they immediately noticed a significant difference.

Problems raised on the spot are resolved on the spot.

There was no arguing, no complaining; if one family couldn't solve it, then several families would work together to solve it.

Some companies can even get together on the spot to discuss the issue and elect a department to take the lead in resolving all the problems.

The person responsible for taking meeting minutes meticulously records these discussion results, which constitutes a formal resolution. If any problems arise during implementation, this will be used as the basis for accountability.

Throughout this process, Xiao Changche did not interfere or forcibly assign any tasks.

Clearly, the generals and department heads below were genuinely treating official business as their own, rather than simply doing a job for a paycheck.

Generals who had resolved their problems rose to take their leave with satisfaction, while those whose problems remained unresolved stayed to continue negotiations.

Some problems are simple, but some problems are complex.

Some problems that Quan Yi and Zhang Quan Yi felt were impossible to resolve on the spot were quickly resolved here through agreements reached by all parties.

That's efficiency!
This is execution.

Finally, the last group of people left the conference room.

Xiao Changche stretched and yawned. The clerk in charge of taking meeting minutes brought over the minutes, and Xiao Changche quickly signed his name. Finally, he turned his attention to Quanxin and Zhang Quanyi.

"Protector, these two are General Quanxin and General Zhang Quanyi, who have traveled a long way to join our Northern Court!" Qian Jia introduced the two with a smile.

"Greetings, General!" Zhang Quanyi and Quanxin stepped forward and bowed. The woman before them was not only the second boss of Beiting, but also the boss's wife, so they could not be slighted in the slightest.

Xiao Changche said with a smile, "We admire your great names. General Zhang Quanyi trained troops in Taihang, marched from Hedong and Hexi, and went down to Luoyang. His reputation is illustrious. General Quanxin guarded Jiange Road for more than ten years. Six or seven out of ten of the elite troops in Shu came from your hands. Li Dachui praised you two highly in his letter!"

"We are honored by Governor Li's high regard for us, and we have come to Beiting to serve him. We only hope to live up to Governor Li's expectations and do something for the Beiting Protectorate, as well as contribute to the people outside the pass!" Quanxin said with a smile.

Xiao Changche invited the two men to sit down and said, "You two have come at the right time. My Beiting Protectorate is about to launch a major battle. This battle concerns the fate of the Yuan people and the future of my Beiting. Its importance is self-evident. After listening for so long, I wonder what your thoughts are?"

Zhang Quanyi and Quanxin exchanged a glance, and Zhang Quanyi finally said, "There are indeed some things I don't understand, especially regarding the battle arrangements on the western front. Aren't we being too presumptuous?"

Quanxin continued, "It sounds like they believe the enemy will definitely have internal strife, and they're pinning our hopes for victory on such a vague thing. It's really absurd. But is there something we don't know about the situation on Protector-General Buyi's side?" Xiao Changche smiled and said, "You're indeed an expert. You immediately understood that there was something wrong here. Elder Qian, please explain it to the two of you!"

Qian Jia said, “You two have just arrived, and there is some highly confidential intelligence that I have not yet heard from you. Let me put it this way, infighting within the enemy is an inevitable event, because several years ago, we already turned an enemy general against us. In addition, within the Yuan Kingdom, there was already a unit of our army disguised as bandits, and this time, this bandit group has also been recruited by Akdun of Yandu. Of the two enemy armies on the western front, which together number over 100,000, about 20,000 are related to us.”

Hearing this, Zhang Quanyi and Quanxin both felt somewhat incredulous.

The enemy has 100,000 men.

You said there are 20,000 of your people.

Moreover, these 100,000 people will kill each other.

"Years ago, when Protector Li devised the plan to divide the Yuan Kingdom into three, he also laid the groundwork for these moves," Qian Jia said proudly. "Actually, we didn't think they would have much effect at the time. It's only when things have progressed to this point that we suddenly realize that these seemingly insignificant moves have now become the deciding factors in the battle between the two sides!"

Xiao Changche picked up a cup of tea beside him, took a sip, and said in a tone that was three parts disdain, three parts annoyance, and four parts pride: "Li Dachui is a master of these kinds of schemes and tricks. If you're not careful, you'll fall into his trap without even realizing it. You'll be sold out by him and still be counting the money for him! You two must feel this way quite a bit, right?"

Quan Yi and Zhang Quan Yi glanced at Xiao Changche's slightly protruding belly, but smiled without saying a word.

They were all people who had suffered losses at the hands of Li Dachui.

However, it seems that the person who suffered the most loss among the people present was this woman?
But you definitely can't say that.

"I truly experienced the depth and foresight of Governor Li during the battle in Shu!" Quan Xin laughed, "It's an unforgettable lesson!"

Xiao Changche laughed loudly: "What are your plans next, Generals?"

Zhang Quanyi said, "We discussed this matter with General Quan along the way. We are newcomers and are not familiar with the system outside the pass. We want to get familiar with it first before making any plans. Of course, we are both commanders and hope to return to the battlefield as soon as possible."

"Next, I will personally go to the western front!" Xiao Chang stood up and said, "As you two have probably seen, I am not feeling well and there are many things I cannot personally experience. If you two have no other ideas, you can come to my central military headquarters to assist in planning. What do you think?"

"That is exactly what I wish for, I dare not ask you!" Both of them were overjoyed. They had come all the way here early in the morning just to participate in this battle. Now, not only could they fight, but they could also follow the commander-in-chief. Naturally, they could take advantage of their proximity and learn even more.

After all, the difference between the armies outside the Great Wall and those inside the Great Wall is huge in every aspect. In matters of military strategy, sometimes a slight difference can lead to a huge difference in outcome.

"The battlefield is ever-changing. No matter how well the plan is on paper, sometimes unexpected situations will arise. At this time, the central command needs to make the most effective arrangements and adjustments. With the two of you by my side, I have a lot more leeway in commanding troops! Perhaps, at that time, I will need the two of you to lead the charge!" Xiao Changche said with a smile.
