Chapter 304: Struggle for power and profit

Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 At the end of July of the fifth year of Fengtian, Xie Yun forcibly recruited the old generals of Rongguo who stayed in Hebei, Hu Anxian, Dong Ming, Ma Jin and others into Chang'an, because Dugu died, Su Hongmao's surrendered subordinates were not saved, they expected to go to Chang'an to be more auspicious, killed to make the exile in the countryside, and met Dugu after the retreat and the former general Meng Minwen, a few people in total, gathered a hundred people, for Dugu and revenge, to rebel!

The situation in Hebei was already unstable, coupled with Meng Minwen's courage and good fighting, he soon captured several counties and counties, and occupied several major states in Hebei in less than a month!

Hebei is in a hurry, Xie Yun thought that the forces that he was not afraid of are getting out of his control, he doesn't want to hang it anymore, and is thinking about letting Xie Ronghua go to the front line to fight quickly!

Xie Yunzhi immediately objected: "Father, Rong Hua's old injuries have not healed, how can he be allowed to go to the battlefield again, this time he will go to someone else!" ”

After Xie Ronghua came back, there was an undercurrent in the court, and the courtiers were divided into two factions, one faction felt that the prince was benevolent and the eldest son, and it was natural to inherit the throne, and the other faction, especially the military generals, thought that King Qin had fought hard to win the world, why should he let someone who had no military merits be in charge!

Xie Yun also understood this, and had been trying to balance it, but now after listening to Xie Yunzhi's words, he thought for a moment and said: "King Qin's body is indeed not suitable for an expedition now, since it is not a big rebellion, it is not necessary for him to go out in person, but the selection of the commander of the first army is the top priority, if you choose the wrong person, you will repeat the mistakes of Hedong before!" ”

As soon as Xie Yun's words came out, everyone couldn't help but look at Pei Zhi, he remembered the defeat in the past, and lowered his head in shame, his heart was dull!

Xie Yunzhi nodded and said, "Erchen naturally understands!" As he spoke, he glanced at Xie Ronghua, who was speechless beside him, and said in a deep voice: "There are many good generals under the command of King Qin, but they have always marched and fought under the command of King Qin, and they have no experience in going out independently as the commander of an army. ”

"Oh?" Xie Yun was surprised: "What you are talking about ......"

"General Cui Jianyun Cui!" Xie Yunzhi replied, "When we attacked Chang'an, he led his troops to trap Feng Ji alone, which won the opportunity for us to capture Chang'an, and then together with General Zongzheng, he pacified the chaos in Shuzhong. ”

As soon as he said this, everyone in the court looked at Cui Jianyun, he followed the Xie family from the beginning of Jinyang's army, just because of the identity of Wei Yan's confidant at the beginning, Xie Yun didn't trust him enough, although he had merit, Xie Yun didn't arrange him for any important positions, and then Xie Yun let down his guard against him, but because he had an unpleasant quarrel with King Qin, his status has always been very embarrassing, just like the Battle of Luoyang, he obviously went, but he didn't have any big achievements!

Xie Yun glanced at Cui Jianyun thoughtfully, he looked at Xie Ronghua and said gently, "What does King Qin think of General Cui?" ”

Xie Ronghua smiled faintly: "General Cui has good ability, my father sent him to quell the rebellion, I think there will be a good result soon!" ”

Xie Yunzhi's original nervous mood was relieved because of his words, but Xie Ronghua did not object, which made him a little suspicious of Cui Jianyun, Cui Jianyun turned against Xie Ronghua because of a woman, and that woman always wanted Xie Ronghua's life, it stands to reason that he should have been guarding against Cui Jianyun, why did he ...... this time

Before Xie Yunzhi could figure it out, Xie Yun's majestic voice had already sounded: "General Cui, are you willing to take command and go out to quell the rebellion?" ”

Cui Jianyun knelt down and said loudly: "The last general is willing to do his best for His Majesty!" The rare opportunity to be reused made his voice slightly excited!

"Okay, in that case, I will make you the marshal of the marching army and lead 50,000 elite soldiers to quell the rebellion!"

After the end of the early dynasty, Xie Yunzhi summoned Cui Jianyun alone, and said in a cold voice: "Father Emperor sent you to take command of the battle, you can ask Father Emperor to let King Qin's subordinate Han Sheng go with you, and find an opportunity to get rid of him on the battlefield, we not only want to return with a big victory, but also take this opportunity to cut off one of Xie Ronghua's arms!" ”

Cui Jianyun listened to his words, his face was silent, but his hand was quietly clenched into a fist, he knew that Xie Yunzhi was deliberately testing him, if he didn't do what he said, he was afraid that he would lose the trust he had so hard won!

Xie Yunzhi patted him on the shoulder and chuckled: "Jianyun, this is your chance to shine, don't let Gu down, when you return from a big victory, Gu will be the master, let the crown princess recognize Qiyun as a righteous sister and be your righteous and bright wife!" ”

Cui Jianyun listened to his words, his expression was slightly moved, and he clasped his fists and said gratefully: "Your Highness Xie is complete!" ”

Three days later, Cui Jianyun and Han Sheng set off with 50,000 elite soldiers to Hebei to defeat Meng Minwen!

In just one month, the rebellion was quelled, and Cui Jianyun repeatedly made surprise attacks in the battle, catching the enemy by surprise, but Han Sheng made several mistakes, fell into the trap of the enemy, and lost his life on the battlefield!

After this battle, everyone was impressed by Cui Jianyun, but they didn't expect that the unknown young general had a handsome military talent that was not inferior to Xie Ronghua, the king of Qin, and they all said that the three armies were easy to obtain, and one general was hard to find.

After returning to Beijing, Xie Yun rewarded Cui Jianyun and made him take the position of the general of the Sixteenth Guard, who had been removed by Dewey, and handed over the power of the forbidden army to him to take over!

In the East Palace, they rejoiced and celebrated Cui Jianyun's victory, but the Qin Palace's mansion looked a little dignified, and Geng Qing said to Xie Ronghua with red eyes: "Your Highness, although I can't get used to Han Sheng's kid's face, I still know his ability, how could he die on the battlefield so easily, it must be Cui Jianyun who took the opportunity to design to harm him!" ”

"Your Majesty handed over the forbidden army to Cui Jianyun, and it was clear that he wanted to help the prince guard against us, and it was all to blame for Dewey, there was nothing to rob any relatives, and let others pick up the leak!" Chen Da said dissatisfied!

Dewey said nothing with a cold face, and when they were almost done, Xie Ronghua, who was sitting at the top, slowly said to Qin Luo: "Han Sheng has been following this king for so many years and has always been loyal to his duties, this time something like this happens, my family will probably be very sad, you go to his house for this king to compensate them well!" ”

"Yes!" Qin Luo replied, and when everyone saw that he was leaving, Yun Yifan hurriedly said: "Your Highness, you are leaving like this, is this the matter of General Han over?" ”

Xie Ronghua looked back at them and said lightly, "Otherwise, what do you want?" ”

"Your Highness, this time it's Han Sheng, next time it may be one of us, is Your Highness going to watch us get rid of one by one by the crown prince in various ways!" Yun Yifan said sadly!

Xie Ronghua lowered his eyes and said with a wry smile: "Han Sheng's matter, my father will not be unclear in his heart, since he acquiesced, it means that he does not want to be on our side, the stronger this king is, the farther he will only push him to the prince's side, and now we can only show weakness first!" ”

He looked at all of them, and said in a weak but firm voice: "Don't worry, this king will not let you lose your lives in vain!" ”

After he finished speaking, he left slowly, Yun Yifan and Geng Qing wanted to chase out, but they were stopped by Zhang Xuance: "Your Highness is right, retreating is the best way for us now!" ”

"When are you going to retreat?" Geng Qing said angrily!

"You've been following His Highness for so long, don't you still understand him? His concession is just for a better counterattack, and we just wait patiently! Zhang Xuance shook his head and sighed!
