Speaking of the glorious deeds of the Zhengzhou soldier and horse envoy, the lord could only sigh helplessly: "Although Lord Li doesn't believe him, it can only be written in the war report, after all, he is the only one who came back from that battle." If it weren't for a few captured soldiers, they took advantage of the lax detention of the Liao army and escaped back, telling the real situation at that time. ”

"I'm afraid that the garrison who died bravely in battle will not only not be beneficialized by the court, but the whole family will also suffer. That time, Lord Li, who couldn't bear this guy, played what he did to the emperor and drove him back to the capital. Who knew that this guy had gone through the door of the great god again. ”

"The emperor still wanted to give him a chance, but after half a year, he was reinstated, and he was promoted to half a level and transferred to Zhengzhou as a soldier and horse envoy. With this person's style, not to mention the local guards who are already mostly chaotic, the first-class elite is handed over to him, and I am afraid that it will be rotten in the past two years. ”

"Those guards in Zhengzhou, let alone act as the main force when they arrive at the Xiaocai Battalion, I am afraid that they are not qualified to be miscellaneous servants. If they are used as the main force, I'm afraid King Jing doesn't even know how Zhengzhou was lost. If King Jing used this person to lead the army, the general thought that there would be no second result in this battle. ”

"It's just that there are some things that the last general can't figure out for a while. Although this person has some straw bags, he has also fought a few battles in the border army. And even if King Jing doesn't know the soldiers, he hasn't read this book less. It is impossible for them to be unclear about the speed of soldiers, how can they be so hesitant? ”

"The emperor's repeated dissuasion now, but it has not worked, it is enough to show that King Jing has made up his mind. Since this is the case, it is necessary to quickly raise troops, in order to react in the imperial court, at least to take the Tiger Prison Pass first, so that you can establish yourself in a position of advancing and retreating. ”

"Now this kind of grinding and chirping, that is, not obeying the orders of the imperial court, and never really raising troops. What are they waiting for? Or maybe they're still watching something. Are you really waiting for the imperial army to attack? Zhengzhou is located in a key area, although there are also certain mountains around. But the city is located except for the Yellow River, which is almost unsafe. ”

"As for their rabble, when the imperial army is surrounded on all sides, it is estimated that they will not even be able to make waves. When the interruption continues, the morale of the army will also be chaotic. However, the last general thought that the imperial court should still wait, waiting for them to leave the city. Now we are stationed under the fortified city, and neither the siege nor the assault will be conducive to our swift resolution of the rebels. ”

"This rabble, although the field ability is definitely not good. can rely on the fortified city to defend it, but it may not be impossible to persevere. Once the siege battle reaches a stalemate, it will not only cause heavy casualties to our army, but also bring disaster to the people in the city. If King Jing kills the people and raises the army, then the people will be killed and injured. Such a result is contrary to the heart of the emperor and the prince who love the people. ”

"In fact, there are some words, and it is clear that the prince will not say it. If King Jing is truly rebellious, the period of Empress Daxing's mourning is actually the most suitable opportunity. Empress Daxing died, and the attention of the emperor and the court was focused on the funeral of Empress Daxing, and the attention to Zhengzhou was definitely not enough. ”

"If King Jing rebelled at that time, he would have raised troops from Zhengzhou and took the Tiger Prison Pass first. In terms of the terrain between the Tiger Prison Pass and Jingzhao, there is no danger to defend, it is very likely that in the shortest possible time, it will attack the city of Jingzhaofu. When the time comes, the world will shake. ”

"Even if the imperial court reacts quickly, it is difficult for a large army to complete the arrangement of grain and grass supply from the time of assembly to the departure of the army. If King Jing raises troops at that time, he is likely to fall into passivity. Even if he gathered a group of rabble, he would pose a great threat to the imperial court, after all, Zhengzhou was too close to Jingzhao. ”

But right now, the imperial court has been prepared, but it still has not taken action, and has sat back and watched the great fighter plane pass. Whether it is because King Jing does not really want to rebel, or if there is something else unspeakable, the last general is unknown. The last general is a military attaché, and the only thing that can be done at the moment is to put the army in order and wait for the will of the imperial court at any time. ”

"The last general is now thinking more about how to win with one blow. As for the dumping in the court, it has nothing to do with the last general and the Xiao cavalry battalion. The cavalry battalion is the army of the imperial court, and it is only loyal to the imperial court and the emperor. "This is what the commander said, in fact, it is already very direct.

He directly told the prince in front of him that the battle between the princes had nothing to do with him. also told Huang Qiong through these words that he is not a person of any prince, and he is only loyal to the court and the emperor. His remarks are somewhat like the demeanor that hundreds of years later, I am a soldier and I only obey the orders of the state, and I will not participate in political affairs.

Huang Qiong told him that he should not get involved in the affairs between the princes. He was more straightforward, but he didn't even want to mention it. Even if everyone knows it in their hearts, but this commander in the capital also told the young prince in front of him his attitude in disguise. It means that I am only loyal to the emperor, and you should not think of pulling me into the water.

I listened to you, but I hope you will listen to me. I hope that your previous words are sincere, I know what the emperor's bottom line is, and I will never touch it. You don't have to use this kind of conscious overture to try to pull me to your side in disguise.

After listening to the words of the commander of Yu Du, Huang Qiong just smiled. It seems that this commander is also a well-behaved and elegant character. Looking at the calm eyes of the commander of the capital, Huang Qiong said: "Lord Yu, this king hopes that you can remember today's words, as for the rest, you and I can know it in our hearts." ”

"A lot of things take time to verify, don't they? Otherwise, how can we say that we will see people's hearts over time. Although I have a lot of problems, I also know that there are some things that I can't touch. As for you, be with this king and be yourself. This king is not a gentleman, and neither are you. You and I are both fellow travelers, so it's good to see through some things. ”

After saying that, Huang Qiong pondered for a while and said, "Lord Yu, the things you said are not things that should be considered now. What King Jing thinks there, we can't guess for a while. But your last remark, the king thinks it makes perfect sense. Siege warfare is definitely not a good choice. ”

"However, this king feels that in your heart, there is a rough decision about this battle. Since the two of us are grasshoppers on the same rope, then please don't talk about it, if you have any ideas, just say them all at once, and we can also discuss it. ”

"If Lord Yu's plan is possible, this king will naturally support it. Lord Yu, don't think too narrowly about this king. Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, this king is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to pretend to understand. Although this king is young, he still understands the truth of humbly accepting advice. Everyone is an old coachman, so you don't want to sell it here. ”

Seeing Huang Qiong so happy, the commander of the capital abandoned the last trace of scruples, and led Huang Qiong to the back of his command envoy's lobby, in front of the hanging map of Henan Road: "Lord Wang, Tiger Prison Pass is located between Zhengzhou and Jingzhao Mansion, and it is the only way to enter Jingzhao Mansion in the Kanto region.

"If the rebels want to avoid the Tiger Pass, they will have to go north into Shanxi Road, or go south and detour for hundreds of miles. In that case, their battle line is too long. In the absence of cavalry, no sensible general would have made such a decision. ”

"And the Tiger Pass is connected to Songyue in the south and the Yellow River in the north, and the mountains are staggered, and the terrain is extremely dangerous. And because it is the gateway to the east of Jingzhao Mansion, the imperial court repairs it every year, and the city pass is built extremely strongly. If the rebels really dare to march west into Jingzhao, Tiger Prison Pass will be the place they must pass. ”

"With the terrain and sturdiness of the Tiger Prison, as long as there are no problems inside. Coupled with the 3,000 elites in the pass, there is almost no possibility for the rebels to capture the Tiger Prison Pass in a short period of time. As long as our army sticks to the Tiger Pass, then those who will be stationed under the fortified city will become them. ”

"When the time comes, our army will either fight a decisive battle with it under the Tiger Prison Pass, or surprise a surprise army will rush behind it, and the victory will be determined in one fell swoop. However, in the end, I think that although these two methods are the best policy, they may not be the best policy. The last general also has a way, not only to make the rebels suffer from the enemy, but also to completely solve the rebellion in Zhengzhou in the shortest possible time. ”

Speaking of this, he pointed his finger to the Yellow River in the north of Jingzhao Mansion and said: "As early as when I received the letter from the front division of the palace and the military department, the last general had already sent someone to control the Cao Yun on the Yellow River. In fact, there is no need for the general to deliberately control it, and the sense of smell of those merchants on the Yellow River is more sensitive than anyone else. There was a change in Zhengzhou, and they didn't dare to send their merchant ships down. ”

"In the past few days, a large number of merchant ships have accumulated on the Mengjin ferry. On the day when the prince arrived at the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, the last general felt that the battle was inevitable, so he sent someone to take advantage of the convenience of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the Mengjin Inspection Department to control a number of merchant ships. Most of them are large ships of hundreds of stones. ”

"My idea is that during the decisive battle between our army and the rebels at Tiger Pass, we will take a boat down the river with a force and go straight to the nest of the rebels in Zhengzhou. If King Jing really rebelled, then he would definitely fight first to Xianyang as the king, and win in Jingzhao to face the south as the king. If you lose, it's a big deal to think that you will end up together. ”

"It will definitely break the cauldron and come out, and Zhengzhou may not have many troops left. And Zhengzhou's distance from Jingzhao will naturally make it impossible for the rebels to carry too much grain and grass. If we take advantage of the weakness, we can seize Zhengzhou and cut off the rebels' food routes. At that time, the rebels will be stationed under the fortified city, with no food and grass inside, no reinforcements outside, and the rabble, and may even collapse without a fight. ”

In this way, not only will the casualties of the cavalry battalion be minimized, but also the people of Zhengzhou will be spared from misery, which will be more conducive to our army's quick victory and reduce the cost of food and salary in the imperial court. When the last general intercepted the Mengjin merchant ship, he did not report to the prince in time, and asked the prince to forgive him. ”

Huang Qiong was somewhat dissatisfied with this practice of the commander in the capital. If he did, it wouldn't matter until he got to the camp. But it was only after he arrived at the Xiao Cavalry Camp that he began to detain the boat, which didn't he put himself in his eyes.

Looking at the condescending guy in front of him, although he was a little hesitant, Huang Qiong still said: "Lord Yu, the matter has passed, I don't want to pursue anything." But in the future, you would do well to consult with the king about such matters. This time, this king will bear it for you first. If there is a next time, solve your own affairs by yourself. ”

"You are also a civil official, and you have served two terms as a county magistrate. Are you really one of those businessmen who have no backstage? Do you know how many people you can't afford to offend behind your seizure of the boat, and even this king has some taboos? Since you and I are grasshoppers on a rope now, it is better to say hello in advance for some things, and I don't want this kind of thing to have a next time. And my lord, some of your ideas are also used by the wrong person. ”
