In the next few days, the governors of various places came one after another, either alone or with a large group of soldiers and horses—which made Ming Yu, who was in charge of logistics, very disagreeable. complained all day long: "Even if you come to a picnic, remember to bring a lunch box!" ”

The gathering of Qinwang's army brought trouble was not only the shortage of materials, Zi Chuanxiu had also lamented that Wu Hua, the governor of Bartley, was really a master of acting. But now it seems. His emotion was still too early, and the current governors and dignitaries were all much smarter than Wu Hua. They surrounded Zi Chuanning day and night. He showed a high degree of patriotic enthusiasm. Pointing to the sky, he shouted that he would not share the sky with Di Lin. staged a good show such as cutting his wrists and taking an oath. Zi Chuanning was moved to tears, and she said to Li Qing: "Although the Zichuan family has lost Sterling and Wenhe, fortunately, thousands of Sterling have stood up!" ”

Zichuan commented beautifully: "Hmph." When His Highness Ning fled, what did these ten million Stirlings do? ”

Despite the whining. But Zichuan Xiu didn't dare to speak casually. With high positions of power comes not only power, but also heavy responsibilities. In the past, he was only the deputy commander of the reserve and could speak unscrupulously, but now the commander of the Far Eastern Army and the commander-in-chief of the Qinwang Army is no longer just a simple military general. He is also the political head of the imperial power faction of the Zichuan family. Standing in this position, it is really not good for me to let off my poisonous tongue anymore, and unfortunately, there will be rumors outside: "Commander Xiuchuan discriminates very much against the generals who surrender to Cheng." He said that the governors who did not rescue His Highness Ning at the beginning were unreliable and must not stay! This is to push the middle faction to the side of Di Lin.

Hundreds of soldiers and horses from various provinces and localities arrived at the camp of the Far Eastern Army. The mere reorganization of troops and horses has kept the logistics units of the Far Eastern Army very busy. Both sides are accumulating every penalty. Preparing for the final battle.

Early in the morning of November 26, 786. Provincial Governor's Mansion of Bartley.

Early risers-by were surprised to find that the city was a little different today. The city is densely populated with military and police. There are three steps and one post on the street, and one sentry in five steps. At every intersection stood patrolling police officers and soldiers, indifferently watching passers-by, and the streets around the Governor's Mansion were heavily guarded. Three blocks away. The police erected red warning signs that read "No Passage," and inside the cordon, there were non-commissioned officers wearing light blue military coats standing on both sides of the street like nails, and the atmosphere was solemn.

Seeing such a situation, the knowledgeable citizens were whispering: "Look, there must be a big man coming to us!" Such specifications are at least at the command level. ”

The foresight of the citizens was soon confirmed, and at about nine o'clock in the morning a long convoy entered from outside the city, opening the way with cavalry carrying golden flying eagle flags. It was shown that there were senior generals of the Zichuan family or members of the royal family in the procession, and the long line was lined up in a long way, heading straight for the governor's palace.

In the open space in front of the Governor's Palace. Crowded. The epaulettes of the high-ranking officers dazzled the eyes, and in this small open space, the governors and high-ranking generals of the twenty-one provinces, such as Witt, Trencia, Gangmut, Yasin, Bit, Dama, and Shidi, were all here, and the high-ranking officers with straight uniforms stood like a forest. Didn't speak. No one was talking about it. The place where hundreds of people gathered was so quiet that no sound could be heard. The officers stood upright. The expression is serious. There is even a faint sense of concern.

"It's coming!"

The leading carriage drove past the corner of the street, and the golden flying eagle flag of Zichuan's home land came into view, and a long string of carriages drove in, and after the carriage stopped. Important generals of the Far Eastern military and localities got out of the car one after another. In the crowd of people waiting there. The governors were talking softly: "The beautiful woman walking in front is His Excellency Deputy Commander Lin Bing. She was in charge of the ...... of military law and discipline in the Far Eastern Army"

"The beautiful woman who is getting off the car is His Excellency Shirakawa Hongyi Qiben, she is the commander of the Second Army of the Far East and the main force of the Far East."

"Behind Bai Chuan is His Excellency Ming Yu Hongyi Qiben. He was the commander of the Third Army in the Far East and the head of logistics in the Far East. ”

"That's General Bran. He is also a veteran of the Far Eastern Army, and he followed His Royal Highness Xiuchuan during the Great Uprising. It is very important to be trusted by the commander. ”

"The tall, lanky man didn't know who he was...... But I know he's in charge of intelligence for the Far Eastern Army......"

When Shikawa Xiu jumped out of the carriage, the eyes of the audience were focused on him. Needless to say, even a governor who has never seen him can recognize his identity, maybe the Zichuan family has a second commander here, but there can't be a more dazzling general than him. He was not very flamboyantly dressed, wearing a dark blue high-ranking officer's uniform and a black cavalry cloak of the Far Eastern Army. In the cold wind, the wide cloak danced as if it was about to spread its wings and fly away.

The youngest leader of the family is tall and tall. Yushu is in the wind. Snow-white silver hair against a black cloak, surrounded by the generals around him, looked very conspicuous. Impressive.

glanced at everyone, frowning slightly. Zi Chuanxiu's eyes were as sharp as a sword: "I'm Zi Chuanxiu." ”

Feared by the majesty of the Far Eastern Dominion, without the need for command, the governors fell to their knees in unison: "See your lordship! ”

"Get up. Your Highness is about to come down. Beware of rude gaffes. ”

said. Zi Chuanxiu stood on the side of the last and most gorgeous carriage and raised his voice, "His Royal Highness the Commander." The governors and generals have arrived, waiting for the Holy Driver

The atmosphere was serious, and the governors' eyes were focused on the carriage, since the rebellion in the imperial capital in January, the current chief of the Zichuan family has not appeared in public, although the Far Eastern Army claimed that Zichuan Ning had sworn in the Far East Valen Fortress military parade, but didn't the Supervision Department also swear that His Royal Highness Zichuan Ning was in the imperial capital? The war provoked by the Far East was in the end a just war for the imperial power of the Zichuan family to crusade against the rebellion. Or is it the Far Eastern forces trying to seize hegemony and rebel against the war, although so far, most of the governors have sided with Zichuan Xiu. But this doesn't mean that they believe in Zichuan Xiu, they just feel that the Far Eastern Army is stronger than the Supervision Department. The chances of winning are greater, and public opinion and popular hearts are in favor of the Far East, so the governors are also aware of the current affairs on this side.

But I have never seen Zichuan Ning's true face. The governors also had no bottom in their hearts. There is a question that has always been on their minds: what if. The chief is really on Dilin's side. So what to do?

The door opened silently. A pretty woman in military uniform poked her head out and jumped out of the carriage lightly. Shikawa Xiu took a step forward. Respectfully lifted up the pretty woman. The audience resounded with silent fluctuations. Excitement rippled through the crowd like waves. The Governors whispered, "Your Highness the Governor." It's really His Highness the Commander-in-Chief! ”

The twenty-two-year-old head of the Zichuan family wore a dark blue civilian uniform. The exterior is a snow-white fur coat. The fluffy fur fluff set off the pretty sweet potato seed face is extraordinarily white, Zi Chuanning lowered his head slightly, his long eyelashes covered his bright eyes, and his calm eyes stared at the crowd in front of him calmly, in the eyes of the girl, there was a calmness and calmness that had gone through vicissitudes.

Zi Chuanning used to be the commander of the Central Army, and many of them were born in the Southeast Army or the Central Military Governor, just a glance. Everyone can confirm it: this slim and pretty woman standing in front of you. It is indeed the ninth chief of the Zichuan family.

The governors all knelt down on one knee in unison: "Wechen see His Royal Highness the Governor-General!" ”

As the landlord of the province, the governor of Bartley Province, Wa Xin took a step forward and said on behalf of everyone: "Your Highness, Weichen and others don't know that Your Highness is in trouble, and it is too late to save you. Sin deserves death! ”

"Get up." Zi Chuanning said calmly: "Everyone has been deceived by Di Lin, and this is not a crime. The fact that you are here today shows your loyalty. ”

Zi Chuanning's tone was light. There is no resentment and no reproach. But the governors couldn't help but feel a chill rising from behind: the governor was very angry!

Hearing the implicit dissatisfaction in the chief's tone, for a while, no one in the audience dared to answer. It was silent.

Fortunately. The Far Eastern Commander Zichuan Xiu came out to relieve the siege: "Your Highness." Everyone's here. Let's go inside. ”

The venue was set up in the auditorium of the Governor's Palace. Behind the rostrum, a huge golden flying eagle flag hangs on the blue wall. Guards armed with sharp swords stood at the doorway and saluted solemnly to the high-ranking officers who entered the arena. The scorching epaulettes dazzle the eyes. A murderous aura of the golden iron horse came to his face. At this time, those who can occupy a place in this place are at least senior officers above the flag level.

There were only three people sitting on the rostrum: Zi Chuanning, Zi Chuanxiu, and Lin Bing, and Zichuanxiu also invited Wa Xin and Wu Hua, the local governors of Bartley, to come up and sit down, but these two parents didn't dare to come up and sit side by side with the chief, so. The person who presided over the meeting became Shikawa Xiu himself.

Zi Chuanxiu glanced around at everyone: "Your lords are from various provinces, and some of you have worked with me. Everyone recognizes; Some of them are meeting for the first time. I think let's introduce ourselves. So that His Highness the Commander-in-Chief can recognize you, let's start with the front row. Come one by one. ”

Thereupon. The generals present came out one after another to greet the head of the family and introduce themselves:

"Xiaguan flax. As the Governor of Trencia, he was able to meet His Highness for the first time today. It is a great honor! The lower officials are convinced, under the command of His Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief and the Commander of the Far East. Our department will be able to make supreme achievements! ”

"Xiaguan Lin Ruhai. As Governor of Yassin, it is an honor to meet His Highness. The soldiers and civilians of Yasin Province are willing to die for His Highness! ”

"Your Majesty is Gao Changfeng, serving as the Governor of Warren, please allow your subordinates to express the most heartfelt love and support of the military and people of our province for His Royal Highness, and to participate in the battle of the glorious King of Diligence. Xia Guan felt the supreme honor! ”

"Xiaguan Wei Min, who served as the governor of Gangmut, came to King Qin this time. Xia Guantong brought eight thousand tigers! The lower official pleaded with His Royal Highness Ning and Commander Xiuchuan. Assign us the position of Vanguard, and we will be able to slaughter the rebels! ”

Seeing that the generals came out one after another, knelt down to salute and pledge their allegiance to themselves. Zi Chuanning's face was indifferent, but her heart was turbulent, and she remembered the bitterness and hardship of the escape road at the beginning. Looking at the majesty of the current call, I can't help but feel a lot of emotion.

After the introduction, the officers returned to their places and sat down.

Zi Chuanning said slowly: "Since January, the country has fallen, the vicious waves are monstrous, and the darkness covers the sky. Fortunately, there are still loyal people like you in the family, although the rebels are coercive and tempting. But you will not give in. Hold fast to faith and morality. This is also where the hope of the country lies, everyone, you will live up to the Zichuan family today, and the Zichuan family will definitely live up to you in the future

As soon as Zi Chuanning's words fell, Zi Chuanxiu said solemnly: "Obey the will of His Highness, we will be loyal to the family." Exorcise rebellion! ”

The generals shouted in unison: "Loyalty to the family, drive out the rebellion!" "These dozens of people are all elite masters in the army, although there are not many people, but the voice is low and powerful, which makes people's eardrums hurt.

Among the governors, there were many officers from the original Southeastern Army, and they saw such an exciting scene. They all remembered the swearing-in meeting on the eve of the decisive battle between the Far Eastern Army and the Southeast Army when they marched into the imperial capital and fought against the Demon God Emperor. Thinking of Stirling, who died young, many governors had tears in their eyes.

Lin Bing once commented: "Di Lin plotted to kill Sterling. This not only aroused the anger of Zichuan Xiudi. It also caused the anger of the generals of the southeast department, and it can even be said that he successfully angered the entire Zichuan family military. In this sense. The consequences of Di Lin's killing of Sterling were more serious than killing Zichuan Shenxing. ”

In addition to the gloom and sadness. The generals were also deeply frightened, the Zichuan army paid attention to his background and lineage, when Sterling was alive, the officers from the southeast department regarded him as the backbone, no matter where he served, they all regarded Sterling as the core and consciously rallied around him. But in this incident, Sterling was murdered and Wenhe was martyred. Qin Lu was murdered. Starry was executed. Fang Yun is missing. The heavyweights of the southeast department were wiped out, and the officers of the southeast department were deeply panicked. Whether on the battlefield or in officialdom. Losing a backer means being vulnerable. Meant to be easily destroyed.

Fortunately. The Far Eastern Commander is the brother-in-law of General Stirling, so is it a good choice to join him? For General Stirling's sake. Maybe he'll take care of us?

With such a thought, everyone shook their spirits and held their heads high. Standing upright, he strives to leave a good impression on Zichuan Xiu, and he will also serve as a source of refuge in the future.

"Your Excellencies, the king is diligent and rebellious, and your loyalty is commendable. It's just that I don't know the amount of land here, and the staff is not good at drawing up plans, so please please report it. Let me have a bottom in my heart. ”

As soon as Zi Chuanxiu's words fell, Governor Hu Ma was the first to stand up, but the voice of this low-pitched general was surprisingly loud: "Trencia is willing to send 25,000 troops, a total of three infantry divisions!" ”

There was a low buzz in the room. are all lamenting the lavish generosity of the Governor of flax. One province produced three infantry divisions. Other provinces were able to draw up similar numbers of troops - for example, Bartley Province organized four local garrisons in the war against the Inspectorate. But they are defending the homeland. And flax is tantamount to draining the garrison of Trencia to help the army of King Qin, and the governor whispers, muttering whether flax is crazy or not.

Zi Chuanxiu was slightly surprised: "Governor Hu, I remember that on the sequence list of the Military Affairs Office, the garrison of Trencia has a total of three divisions, right?" Have you formed a new unit? ”

"Lord Qiyu. Without the consent of His Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief and the approval of the Military Affairs Department, the subordinate officers did not dare to organize a new army without permission, and the garrison of our province really only had three divisions. ”

"Governor Hu. Aren't you going to leave some troops behind? ”

"Lord Qiyu, Xia Guan has left two infantry brigades in Trencia, which is enough to maintain local law and order."

"Governor Hu, you don't leave any troops, although our army has a good chance of winning, but if there is a ...... What do you do then? ”

"Your Highness, Your Excellency. Although the lower officials are stupid, they also know that there are no eggs under the nest. As long as the main force of the Wang Division wins, then our province will naturally be as stable as Mount Tai, if the battle luck is not good. If the main force of the king division is frustrated. Even though the three divisions of our province are complete. But to no avail. Country. There is a country before there is a home! The safety of the province of Trencia is important, but the survival of the family community is above all else. At this critical juncture. Protect the big picture and give up the small family. How dare the lower officials not do their best to harm the overall situation? ”

The Governor of Huma was righteous and awe-inspiring, and every word was loud, and he was so creepy that he could say such hypocritical words so justifiably. If flax weren't a sage like Stirling, he would have been a great evil that he had never heard of.

Zi Chuanxiu and Lin Bing exchanged glances. Lin Bing whispered: "This guy is very gambling, desperate!" ”

Looking at the short general in front of him, a sneer appeared at the corner of Zi Chuanxiu's mouth: Zi Chuanning has been publishing the article in the Far East for two months. Trencia didn't even let out a fart, such a character, could he be a loyal and patriotic sage? But since you're betting on us, that's welcome.

He said calmly: "Governor Hu is public and selfless. Look at the big picture. Loyalty. The sun and the moon are bright. He is a role model for my generation! ”

Seeing that flax has been so highly praised by the commanders of the Far East. There was envy in the eyes of the generals.

Hu Ma lowered his head deeply: "My lord's praise." The subordinate is really ashamed. ”

"Your Excellency, you need not be polite. You are credited with what you have done today. Naturally, the family will remember. ”

Although he didn't think so, Zichuan Xiu couldn't help but admit that Hu Ma had indeed greatly boosted his popularity, and he promised to send three divisions. There is this high standard in front. The governors of the provinces knew that this matter was related to their impression in the minds of the governor and the Far East, and they were embarrassed to send too few troops.

"Yasin Province is willing to send 17,000 troops, two divisions!"

"The province of Warren is willing to send 13,000 troops. A division regiment and a special brigade. ”

"The province of Witte is willing to send fifteen thousand troops. An infantry division regiment and a cavalry division. ”

One by one, the governors made a voic. The number of troops sent was between 10,000 and 20,000. This is already much higher than Shikawa Xiu's estimate. Seeing that the strength of the rebel army was getting stronger and stronger, Zi Chuanxiu was secretly happy, and turned his head to look at Zi Chuanning, but saw that the head of the Zichuan family was also smiling. But there was a faint trace of sorrow in his eyes.

Zi Chuanxiu asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, is there anything wrong?" ”

Zi Chuanning said in a low voice: "Brother Xiu, the governors of various provinces and towns have enthusiastically sent troops, which shows his loyalty and patriotism. It's just that...... Maybe I'm worried. But local power is so strong. Raise elite soldiers. In the future, I am afraid that the tail will not fall. I am afraid that it is not a blessing for the country. ”

"His Royal Highness's thinking is becoming more and more mature, which is very gratifying to Wechen. However, the worries of Zhenbo are for the future. Now the important thing is to put down the rebellion, Wechen thinks. As long as the central power can remain strong, all problems will be solved. ”

Zi Chuanning smiled bitterly, of course she knew that as long as the central power was strong, the local government would naturally obey. But the problem is that now the central power -- uh. If you don't count the Far Eastern Army, the current central power refers to Li Qing and more than a dozen guards, and now. The number of troops mobilized in the provinces is often calculated in the tens of thousands, and the "central power" is really not strong in this way.

Huge land venue. Only Zi Chuanxiu's calm and crisp voice echoed: "Ladies and gentlemen, the goal of my first battle against the rebel army is to annihilate the rebels entrenched in the Supervisory Office in the west of Bartley Land in one fell swoop. Shirakawa Red Cloth Flag Book! ”

The heroic female general stepped forward. Loudly responded: "Xiaguan is here!" ”

"I have ordered you to lead twenty teams of my Second Army in the Far East. Attract and contain the troops of the west from the front. ”

"The subordinate obeys!"

"General Bran!"

The burly half-orc stood up from his seat and said in a voice like a bell: "His Royal Highness the King of Light." Subordinates are here! ”

"You lead twenty teams in the second town of the kingdom. He is responsible for the left flank of Shirakawaji, and is always ready to break through from the flank and outflank the enemy's rear at any time. ”

"Yes!"

"Your Excellency Waxin!"

"The lower official is here!"

"You led two divisions of the Bartley Provincial Army to serve as the right flank of Shirakawa's troops. and used as a reserve on the front. ”

"Yes!"

"Governor Puxin!"

"The lower official is here!"

"You led two divisions of your province to carry out harassing and sexual attacks on Oshang Province. Focus on targets such as enemy supply convoys and granaries. ”

"Yes!"

"Governor of flax, Governor Lin Ruhai. Governor of the High Long Wind! ”

The three governors responded at the same time: "The lower officials are here!" ”

"The troops of your three provinces will immediately assemble in Oshang Province to form a special force of our army. At the head of the Governor of flax. Your troops will be responsible for striking at the camp in the west of the city and cutting off the back roads of his land! ”

"Yes!"

"Governor Wei Min. Governor of Kolar, Governor of Romu! ”

"The armies of your three provinces are headed by Governor Wei Min, and your task is to assist the Governor of Huma. Cut off the back road to the present-day west. And block the aid from the imperial capital to the present-day West, and you will act. Obey the local instructions of the Shirakawa Red Banner! ”

"Yes!"

After assigning the manpower, Zichuan Xiucai turned around and politely said to Zichuan Ning: "Your Highness, do you think this is appropriate?" ”

Zi Chuanning smiled: "Military affairs." I don't really understand it, but the commander just looks at it. I'm okay with that. ”

"That's it. Wechen overpassed. ”

The ensuing meeting lasted for more than an hour, and Zichuan Xiu dispatched a group of governors without even symbolically asking for Zichuan Ning's opinion. But none of the Governors present felt anything wrong. Outwardly. Zichuan Xiu is gentle and polite, and has a peaceful temperament. But everyone can feel it. Beneath this peaceful appearance, the silver-haired commander's deep eyes exuded a strong killing aura, and his gaze was instantly shocked, containing a blade-like sharpness and coldness. Under his gaze. Even the most treacherous governor had a chill that was seen through. It is like facing a towering and irresistible existence in the face of lofty mountains. The governors could not think of resisting.

Zichuan was silent. A pair of bright eyes were fixed on Zi Chuanxiu. She knew she could sit in this room. Which one is not an old fritter polished in the army? Survive the battlefield of battle and win in the officialdom of battle. Can be a provincial governor, which is a simple character? Outside, they are all big men who command one side and have a strategy. There are mountains and rivers in the chest. But here, in front of Shikawa Xiu. They are not treated as well as ordinary creeps,

watched Zi Chuanxiu give orders to a group of generals who had just met, and opened his mouth to train. shut up and scolded, and the general who was scolded did not dare to resist in the slightest, but only dared to say yes again and again. Even a layman like Zi Chuanning, who is not familiar with military affairs, can feel it. The gentleness when getting along with himself is completely different.,Zichuan Xiu, who runs military affairs.。 Domineering.

The general is domineering, although it is formless and colorless, but this is a real place of existence. This is not something that can be obtained by virtue of position or background, but after years of training in the army, he has personally killed countless heavy soldiers. Shikawa Xiu doesn't have to be deliberately pretentious, every move. Naturally, there is a sense of majesty. This is the unique tiger power of a general who has experienced a hundred battles. Just like the breath of a lion and tiger in the mountains, a little exposure is enough to deter the beasts.

"The ruler of the Zichuan family needs such majesty, and fortunately there is such a strong figure as Brother Axiu. can suppress so many superintendents with different intentions. As a woman, she is the head of the family, and there are too many scruples and inconveniences! However, can I rely on Brother Ah Xiu for the rest of my life? ”

Zi Chuanning pondered. Caught in confusion and melancholy.
