Chapter 538: On the Dinner Table of the Jiedu Embassy
"Actually, it's very simple, Wang Shuai, it's impossible for a smart person like you to think of it. Pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info today is divided into a number of provinces, respectively, with heavy troops, dominating one side, although Emperor Xuanzong in order not to let these Taoist festivals sit big, every once in a while will be transferred, but this is also an exception, and there are people who are also two to three towns of the festival degree, this is not without precedent. ”
Although Ye Tingcheng did not have any respect for Li Longji in his mouth, this was a very serious behavior, but everyone present knew Ye Chengcheng's previous identity, but they also knew that if Ye Tingcheng still had respect for Li Longji, it would be called abnormal.
And Wang Zhongsi himself has always been smart, hearing Ye Chengcheng so little, he immediately understood Ye Chengcheng's intentions, today, both the two towns of the festival envoy abounds, even he used to be the envoy of the two towns of Hedong, Shuofang two towns, although he quickly removed one, but he himself started from Hedong, has a certain foundation, if he accumulates merit in the future, it is very likely to be the envoy of the two towns again. If his merits at the border pass accumulate higher and higher, if he is replaced by someone else, it is very likely that he will be transferred to Chang'an and directly enter the phase, which is equivalent to a disguised removal of military power. But who is he? He was raised by Emperor Xuanzong since he was a child, and his relationship with Emperor Xuanzong was not ordinary; otherwise, Li Linfu would have been deposed long ago if he slandered so many times, so how could he sit back and relax until now? Since Emperor Xuanzong would not be jealous of him, then he would still have the opportunity to be promoted in the future, and it is not impossible for the envoys of the three towns or even the four towns to be envoys, and at that time, he will really be a prince of the mercenary world......
Thinking of this, he swallowed his saliva and suddenly slapped himself, startling several other people at the dinner table.
"Wang Shuai, why is this?" Ye Chengcheng asked suspiciously, he still thought that there was something wrong with his words.
"San Lang, you don't need to say it anymore, if you let someone with a heart listen to it, this is a crime of rebellion......! But to be honest, if it is really like what you said, it is indeed somewhat possible, but it depends on the emperor's meaning, and I won't hide it from you, in fact, there is such an opportunity right now, whether it is for me or for you. ”
"Opportunity? Please also ask Wang Shuai for advice. Ye Tingcheng's keen intuition felt that this should be related to the military affairs that He Bingyan said when he was in front of the Jiedu Mansion, if he didn't guess wrong, this military affairs should be related to the recent actions of the Shuofang Army, otherwise, Guo Ziyi would not be so concerned.
Wang Zhongsi paused, drove out the people who were waiting for them to eat not far away, and after repeatedly confirming that there were no outsiders in this house, he said in a low voice: "To be honest, just two days ago, our Jiedu Mansion just received a secret letter from the emperor, in which he said that our Shuofang army has not had a major military operation for a long time, because it has been peaceful for too long, the Khitan and Xi people began to be a little nervous, and they are not very peaceful. He planned to issue an order to recruit a large army to Shuofang in the near future, and launch a relatively large military operation against the Khitan and Xi people with me as the general, and he asked me to make all preparations for war during this time, and be ready to send troops outside the three surrendered cities at any time. ”
"Wang Shuai, is this true?" Before Ye Tingcheng and the other three people could say something, Li Zheng couldn't help but blurt out and ask, this news is really amazing, although he knew that what Wang Zhongsi said might be a very important military matter, but he didn't expect that it would be to send troops to Khitan and Xi, this is indeed a shocking event, even though Emperor Xuanzong likes to work on the side in recent years, but he has not seen him launch a few relatively large battles, especially the Shuofang army, the Shuofang army has been calm for several years, this expedition will be the first time in recent years.
He Li Zheng has long wanted to encounter a battle to accumulate merit and get promoted, he has been stuck in the position of captain for a while, if he wants to go further, he can't do it without a big battle, but he caught up with such a time at the moment...... However, when he thought of one thing, he felt a little afraid, that is, what would happen if he missed this expedition? He escorted his wife out of Lingwu a few weeks ago, and the emperor's secret letter was delivered a few days ago, in other words, he perfectly avoided the emperor's secret letter, if he hadn't encountered the ambush of bandits on the road, let alone Ye Chengcheng and the three of them rescued him, coupled with his wife's entrustment, he was able to return to Lingwu, and when he encountered such a thing, he couldn't think that if he missed it, would he regret it for the rest of his life.
"Li Zheng, what you said, when did I lie to you? I know that you have been waiting for such a big battle for a long time, and now you can be regarded as following your wishes, right?" Yesterday, he Wang Zhonghei actually felt guilty about Li Zheng, because he escorted his wife, but Li Zheng was going to be absent from such a long-awaited battle, which really made him unhappy, and he originally planned to wait for Li Zheng to come back, and transfer him up as much as possible within his authority, but now it seems that there is no need for this.
At this time, even Huan Chenyu, who was still gobbling up just now, actually stopped eating, but stared at Wang Zhongsi with a serious face and said: "But Wang Shuai, promotion can be based on a position, if it is three ordinary Tang soldiers, even if the leaders of these two tribes are killed, I am afraid that there will not be much room for promotion, I don't know if you understand what I mean?"
"Hehe, Brother Huan don't be nervous, since I just said that it is also an opportunity for you, I naturally took this into account, since you have peerless skills and have come thousands of miles to join me, I will naturally not treat the three of you badly. ”
The implication is that if Ye Chengcheng and the three of them join the Shuofang Army now, it is impossible for him Wang Zhonghei to let them really start from an ordinary Tang army, but first arrange a lower military position for them as much as possible within the scope of their duties, so that they can not be conspicuous in this expedition, but also make greater contributions, so that when the settlement is settled later, they will also be greatly promoted, but they will not attract the attention of others. But because Ye Qingcheng is friends with him, and it is very likely that he will become a strong general for Shuo Fangjun, he will think like this, and if it is someone else, he will not bother to care about you.
