"No, it's really dead?"

In the camp tent of the headquarters, when he heard the Chinese military envoy coming to report, Zhang Songling asked in disbelief.

When the military envoy heard this, he nodded, and said with regret: "This time, if you still follow the old path, if you want to get the news earlier, the army may be able to go straight to the Turkic tent!" ”

Hearing the military envoy say this, Zhang Songling was also silent for a while. The situation in the DPRK is not mentioned for the time being, but as a general in the border area, who does not have the idea of extorting Shi Yanshan and sweeping the court.

Although he also knew in his heart that the current border situation was not enough to support the expedition of the army to the Turkic tent, if he could seize the opportunity of the Turkic civil strife and directly attack its main force, it would definitely be able to inflict heavy losses on the other side, which was also a great achievement worthy of going down in history!

"At present, the commander-in-chief of the army has gone to the big tent of the Chinese army, and the special envoy of the king of Jian'an has been humbled to ask the chief to enter the account to discuss matters."

Soon the next sentence of the military envoy pulled Zhang Songling back to reality from the imagination of sweeping the desert, after hearing this, Zhang Songling nodded subconsciously, and asked again: "The rear army is in the general manager's office, can it be conveyed?" ”

"The news was found by the rear army, and Manager Yu was already in the account."

The name of the two of them is Yu Minzhi, who is the descendant of Yu Jin, one of the Eight Pillars of the Western Wei Dynasty, and is Zhang Songling's uncle in terms of generation. Knowing that Yu Minzhi had gone to the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Songling was secretly relieved, so he also led dozens of personal soldiers to follow the military envoy to the big tent of the Chinese army.

When Zhang Songling arrived, most of the governors of Zhulu had already gathered here, and at the end of the banquet, there was also a messenger Zhang Jiazhen who had entered the camp yesterday. After Zhang Songling entered the account, he greeted everyone a little, and then sat on the side of his uncle Yu Minzhi.

This is the first time that the chiefs of all roads have gathered so neatly after Xue Huaiyi's ambush. Wu Youyi, who was sitting behind the handsome case, and Qi Biming and others who were nearby couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw the general managers arriving one after another.

Previously, the commanders were suspicious, and there was no powerful person in charge of the army, so they could not be summoned at all, so the army could only stalemate here. Although the suspicion between them has not been completely eliminated, at least they can gather in the same place to discuss affairs.

Although Zhang Jiazhen sat at the end of the seat, all the managers nodded to him in a friendly way after entering the account, which also made him breathe a sigh of relief. When he entered the camp last night, he had already seen how the current army situation had collapsed, and such a situation was undoubtedly very unfavorable for this mission.

Now that the generals can gather together, Zhang Jiazhen also understands that this has little to do with his entry into the camp, mainly due to the news from Mobei.

After the coup d'état in the Shendu, the authority of both the imperial heir and the king of Yong could not completely deter these fierce generals in the distance for a while, and the authority of the Holy Emperor was also greatly damaged by the coup.

However, the sudden and violent death of the Turkic Khan undoubtedly covered the Holy Emperor with a mysterious aura, and with the Holy Emperor's residual power, these generals were able to be pulled back to the same place.

Putting aside the influence of these mysterious factors, the situation in Mobei has changed so much, and what is the attitude of the imperial court towards it is also a question that the generals are urgently concerned about. Whether the Daibei Provincial Army seizes the opportunity to continue the conquest or retreats to the country for recuperation is also related to the future of the generals.

"The matter of Mobei must be known to the generals. This time on behalf of the North Road march, he missed such a God-given opportunity, which is really thought-provoking! ”

When everyone arrived, Wu Youyi, who presided over the meeting, spoke first, and while talking, his eyes glanced at Su Honghui who was sitting at the table, the meaning was self-evident, aside from Xue Huaiyi, the nominal general manager, Su Honghui was the marching chief who was mainly responsible for the camp affairs, and the army tended to be conservative after advancing north, so that he failed to seize the opportunity to attack Heisha City, and Su Honghui, the actual person in charge, was really to blame.

After Su Honghui heard this, he lowered his head and did not respond, he was indeed a little unreasonable, on the way to the Chinese army's big tent just now, there was no shortage of managers who choked him with words.

There are many reasons why the Daibei army has fallen into the current situation, one of which is the futility of the trip. If they really have established any definite feats, with this by their side, even if there is any turmoil in the imperial court, they don't have to worry too much.

Hearing Wu Youyi say this, Zhang Jiazhen couldn't help frowning slightly, and was slightly dissatisfied with Wu Youyi in her heart. It's not that Su Honghui is upset, but the generals themselves are deeply estranged, and they finally got together, if you don't hurry up and seize the opportunity to reach a certain consensus, what's the point of turning over old accounts here?

However, at the moment, it is still a large army, and even if Zhang Jiazhen is dissatisfied, it is inconvenient to speak rashly for a while. After all, Wu Youyi should be abolished, but to reintegrate the Daibei army, it is inseparable from the cooperation of its people.

But Zhang Jiazhen was inconvenient to speak, and Qi Biming said: "When I heard about this, I realized that the thief monk Huaiyi really deserves to die!" His people received the order and gave them great use, but since they traveled north, they have been hunting day long, and military affairs have been abandoned, so that the warplanes have been delayed, and our army has worked in vain......"

Hearing Qi Mingming say this, all the generals also opened their mouths to echo it, delaying the fighter, although Su Honghui is not a small responsibility, but if the imperial court wants to investigate it deeply, they, the marching chiefs, will also have a certain amount of joint and several responsibility. Then it is better to put the biggest black cauldron on Xue Huaiyi's head, and the dead will not refute it anyway.

Cao Renshi, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army, also said: "It is a pity to miss a good opportunity. But the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to investigate it. Now that the envoy has joined the army, let's first listen to the court's follow-up arrangements for the army of my Daibei Dao. ”

After everyone heard the words, they all looked at Zhang Jiazhen at the end of the seat, Zhang Jiazhen stood up after hearing the words, and said to the generals: "I was ordered to go north, and I didn't know about Mobei before, so I really didn't dare to put my beak lightly, so I could only relay the ...... of Xuanfu's previous life."

What he said was nothing more than the army slowly withdrawing inward, and then the governors led by Wu Youyi went to Wuxing County to meet Su Wei and his party, and received the latest instructions from the imperial court. As for the change of Mobei Khan's throne, this kind of major event must not even be decided lightly by Su Wei, and he needs to report back to the court immediately.

"Although we and other generals have been ordered to use external services, there are changes both inside and outside the present, and we really cannot act rashly. Since the Xuanfu envoy has already entered the country, then I will go to meet first, and the generals will lead their headquarters to Xu Xing behind, waiting for the latest edict of the imperial court. ”

When Zhang Jiazhen finished speaking, Wu Youyi said impatiently.

The reason why he hurriedly joined the army and wanted to seize the military power of the army was that he didn't know that his wish was disappointed now, and he was still under house arrest in the army.

Seeing the letter written by King Yong presented by Zhang Jiazhen, and knowing that King Yong was willing to protect him and his life safety was guaranteed, he no longer wanted to mix with this group of fierce generals, and felt that it was safer to retreat to the rear quickly.

As soon as Wu Youyi's voice fell, Su Honghui was also busy and said: "I am willing to lead the headquarters to protect the king one step ahead!" ”

Although Wu Youyi wanted to dig over old accounts and stab him with words, Su Honghui didn't plan to care, he also wanted to see Su Wei as soon as possible, so as to ensure his own safety.

And Su Honghui thought deeper, the imperial court didn't know what kind of attitude it was towards the changes in Mobei, if there were hardliners who didn't want to give up this opportunity and wanted to seize this opportunity to continue to attack the Turks, then the Daibei army was a ready-made choice.

However, it is difficult to say whether the Turks caused chaos because of the struggle for the throne, but the chaos caused by the coup d'état in Shendu is an ironclad fact. Although the overall national strength of the Tang Dynasty is far better than that of the Turks, who have not been restored for a long time, this kind of labor expedition may lose all the games if they are not careful.

What's more, the army has been out for a long time, and it is already exhausted, and the soldiers are all eager to return to their hearts. In such a situation, the closer you are to the center of the Divine Capital and the farther away from the border, the safer you will naturally be, and you will not be forcibly assigned such a drudgery.

After these two people expressed their positions one after another, the rest of the generals also spoke one after another, and they did not hide their heartfelt feelings in their words.

It is not that they are all cowardly and afraid of a war with the Turks, but because the current domestic situation is indeed unstable and completely insufficient to support a huge expedition.

Although they are far away from the court at the moment, they have also had a deep feeling about the unpredictable changes in the current situation in the past few days, the army has just withdrawn to the northern border of Bingzhou, and all kinds of rumors have spread into the army, and they can't be blocked, which in itself is an extension of the factional struggle in the court.

In such a situation, who would dare to lead the army to the Turks stupidly, regardless of victory or defeat for the time being, just the back is like this, so that people can not concentrate on military affairs.

Of course, there is another important point in this, that is, no matter what their background, their positions are generally biased towards the Holy Emperor, otherwise the Holy Emperor would not have sent them to lead the army.

Even if Zhang Songling, who was born in Guanlong, one of his daughters is still a widow in the Wujia family, and she has been relatively marginalized in Guanlong, and she is very unsure of whether she can avoid being liquidated.

Seeing that all the generals expressed their stance and competed for return, Zhang Jiazhen was also in a complicated mood. In terms of his own mission, such a situation is certainly something he would be happy to see.

But he was not yet established, it was the age of the scholarly spirit, and since he was born, he has heard and seen the magnificent deeds of the Tang Dynasty strong army sweeping Zhuyi, and seeing that all the generals are timid to patrol the border, it is inevitable that he feels a little lost.

However, it is really understandable that the generals are like this, and the imperial court really cannot provide them with a worry-free environment for conquest at the moment. The world is really eager for a male lord who can be strong and strong, but although Zhang Jiazhen is not qualified to participate in the highest level of the game, he does not think that the imperial heir will be such a candidate in his heart.

The worst situation in the east of the Xuanfu River this time was that the generals of the Northern Province or colluded with the township and stayed directly in the local area to conceal the emperor's order, and the worst situation for King Yong was that the real power of the army bypassed the Xuanfu envoy and directly communicated with a faction of the imperial court.

Although it is a pity that we could not seize the opportunity of Gu Dulu's violent death to attack the Turks, the death of Gu Dulu will undoubtedly have a great role in promoting the restoration of order after the coup d'état.
