In the southern camp of the Han army, Gao Xingzhou led the senior generals in the army to personally welcome Liu Zhiyuan into the camp. Traveling for several miles along the way, listening to the cheers of "Long live" all the way, Liu Zhiyuan's heart was drunk, no matter how much loyalty and love the soldiers had for him as an emperor, at least this shocking scene made him happy.

The pleasure of being an emperor is probably like this, and the fatigue of the day's march seems to have dissipated a lot, and the steps are brisk. In order to calm his heart, Liu Zhiyuan called Gao Xingzhou to his side, and walked with a kind look to show his kindness and attention. And Gao Xingzhou is also very knowledgeable, humble in his words, and deferential in his manners.

Regarding Liu Zhiyuan's arrival, Gao Xingzhou's mood was quite complicated, both relaxed and apprehensive. The experience of many generals in the past two months has made him physically and mentally exhausted, and it is really a big burden to drag his weakened body and cripple body to manage military affairs. Fortunately, Liu Zhiyuan's attitude was a little relieved.

In the Chinese army, a huge imperial tent has already been built, in addition to the tent that can accommodate dozens of people, there are also places for administration, martial arts, sleeping, and courtesy, with complete facilities and complete functions. At this time, among the Han army, there was no shortage of resources in engineering operations, and they had experience in building those walled walls.

"Gao Qing and the soldiers have worked hard!" Sitting down in the account, looking around, looking around, towards the more than ten front-line generals who came to see the driver, Liu Zhiyuan said in a comforting tone.

Gao Xingzhou came out of the ranks, and said in a ashamed tone: "The ministers are just doing their duty. led the army to attack, was frustrated under the city, failed to break the city, captured the thief and defeated the enemy, but asked His Majesty to come in person, but it was the sin of the ministers. The minister is the commander-in-chief, and he should be more vigilant! ”

When Gao Xingzhou said this, his posture had been put in the extreme position, and when the generals heard it, they also bowed down in unison: "The last general is guilty, please punish Your Majesty!" ”

Murong Yanchao was also among the guilty pleas, and in such a situation, he did not dare to be maverick.

"Excuse me." Liu Zhiyuan comforted himself: "Defeating Du Chongwei and trapping traitors in a lonely city all depend on the merits of the soldiers, what is the crime?" In my opinion, being a general is not only innocent, but meritorious. At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the situation was turbulent, and the rebels made rebellion, the infant city rebelled, and the Han Dynasty still needs everyone to hold the ......"

"The last general is ashamed!" Liu Zhiyuan said this, and the generals gave face.

Between the monarchs and generals, there is extra harmony, and the emperor's attitude is really very important, just these words of relief and comfort, the suppressed and tense atmosphere since the stop has eliminated a lot.

In fact, it is impossible for the turmoil in the Tokyo court not to spread to the army at all, and many generals were worried before, afraid that after Liu Zhiyuan arrived, they would find a few people to ask for the guilt. But this time, they are decided, the military leaders at the top are at ease, and the soldiers at the bottom are also at ease.

"But-" Liu Zhiyuan turned around again, his face was serious and terrifying, and he said coldly: "The war in Yedu has indeed dragged on for too long, and Du Zhiyuan has been breathing for so long, and there should be a result." I personally raised the army this time to completely eliminate the rebellion of Yedu! ”

When these words fell, a cadre of generals and colonels immediately expressed their position in unison, the Son of Heaven personally went to the front line to supervise the battle, and the morale of the army was restored, and he would use his life to break the city and capture the thieves for His Majesty.

"The forbidden army from the north must settle down as soon as possible, and don't make mistakes!" After soothing it, Liu Zhiyuan commanded.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured." Gao Xingzhou assured: "In each battalion, they have already made proper preparations. ”

"Gao Qing is doing things, I am naturally relieved."

Because of the fatigue of the carriage and horses, without much discussion, he let the driving generals return to their respective duties. The most important thing at the moment is the stationing of the forbidden army from the north and the adjustment of the deployment, all of which require Gao Xingzhou, the front-line commander, to personally participate in the scheduling.

After the tent was dispersed, Liu Zhiyuan alone summoned Murong Yanchao to the imperial tent for questioning, and his people came briskly.

For the emperor's personal arrival, among the generals on the front line, it is estimated that Murong Yanchao alone is the most relaxed, and even a little happy, and has a feeling that he is backering.

was introduced into the tent, and when he saw Liu Zhiyuan, Murong Yanchao bowed: "Brother of the courtiers see the official family." ”

To Murong Yanchao's surprise, Liu Zhiyuan did not respond, and when he looked up, he saw Liu Zhiyuan sitting in his seat, staring at him coldly, with a black face, completely lacking the pleasant face in front of the generals.

couldn't help but wonder, Murong Yanchao straightened up and whispered, "Big brother? ”

"You, let's call it my official family." Liu Zhiyuan finally spoke, his voice flat.

Hearing this, Murong Yanchao's heart froze, the relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth froze, he raised his head, looked at Liu Zhiyuan, and saw that he was really not joking, his black face was solemn, he took a step back, arched his hands, and sulked: "Official...... Official. ”

"Are you guilty?" Liu Zhiyuan asked.

"What is the sin of the minister!" Murong Yan tilted his head slightly, stiffened his neck, and asked dryly.

"What's the sin?" Seeing his attitude, which was simply provoking his authority, Liu Zhiyuan broke out directly and slammed the table: "The crime of the light army!" The sin of building an army! Blasphemy against the army! Do you want me to count them all for you? ”

Liu Zhiyuan's outburst frightened Murong Yanchao, and then he had a bitter black face, and his words were a little overhead: "I did everything you ordered?" ”

Hearing him say this, Liu Zhiyuan was even more angry, stood up and walked in front of him, pointed his finger outward, and asked, "Did I make you ignore discipline and act recklessly?" Did I make you disobey the restraints and be angry with the Lord? Did I tell you to sow discord and play right and wrong? ”

"I don't listen to the military orders, what do you want?" Liu Zhiyuan stared at Murong Yanchao coldly: "You have also been in the army for many years, don't you know any rules in the army?" Rigid, self-righteous, arrogant! ”

"First of all, he attacked without authorization, and the army was defeated, which almost affected the overall situation of the imperial court to suppress the rebellion. I have told you several times to keep the way of being a general, and still do not repent, and the military situation is in danger and the morale is turbulent! ”

"Which of these piles is not a capital crime? Well? Liu Zhiyuan's saliva almost sprayed on Murong Yanchao's face.

Murong Yanchao was a little stunned, and a wave of resentment rose from his chest, and said, "Then please ask the official family to kill my head and punish me!" ”

"Do you think I won't dare?" Liu Zhiyuan glared at him in a louder voice and scolded.

After staring at Liu Zhiyuan for a while, Murong Yanchao finally coaxed and looked away. Liu Zhiyuan is known to be majestic and intimidating, and he has always been afraid of this big brother, not to mention that the eldest brother has become the emperor.

"That Gao Xing Zhou Tun has a heavy army under the city, and he doesn't fight, he only knows how to build those camps, I'm only afraid that he will harbor evil intentions......" Murong Yanchao hung his head and said a little aggrieved: "I am also thinking about the Jiangshan Society of the Han Dynasty." ”

"Tell me, what evil intentions can Gao Xingzhou have?" Liu Zhiyuan said mockingly.

Hearing this, Murong Yanchao raised his head and said urgently: "Gao Xingzhou and Du Chongwei are in-laws, he married him as a daughter, and the way he played like that was obviously to take care of his private thoughts, and the official family should not be careless." ”

At the beginning, Murong Yanchao suspected Gao Xingzhou on this basis and repeatedly argued with him. In this era, when you work hard to a certain status, anyone and anyone may have a little kinship, even if the two sides fight to the death on the battlefield, it is not too rare.

"Don't I know?" Liu Zhiyuan scolded again: "If I doubt this matter, how can I pay it with a conquest army?" Well? ”

"Besides, you don't know how to use your brain?" Suddenly carrying Murong Yanchao's breastplate, Liu Zhiyuan stared at him, almost squeezing out a voice from his throat: "Even if he has different intentions, you want to confront him face to face?" ”

"If you force Gao Xingzhou to rebel, you will be a sinner of the Great Han!" Murong Yanchao was violently pushed by Liu Zhiyuan, took a few steps back, failed to stabilize his body, and sat directly on the ground.

"If I were Gao Xingzhou, I would definitely kill you, and I would have done it with military justice!"

Listening to Liu Zhiyuan's "heart" words, Murong Yanchao's expression slowly relaxed, stood up quickly, patted the dust on his buttocks, and leaned up: "I am your brother, he doesn't dare to kill me." ”

Looking at Murong Yanchao's appearance, Liu Zhiyuan had an urge to slap him, and he couldn't get angry: "Do you still have a face?" In front of the army, you ruined not only your own reputation, but also my face. In order to defend you, I have already stared at nepotism and disregarded the infamy of military discipline! ”

"I asked you to come to supervise the army, not to let you come to rebel against the army! The battle of Yedu has dragged on so far, you have to remember it! Liu Zhiyuan said coldly.

Staying there, Murong Yanchao opened his mouth, and finally held back a sentence from his mouth, and his tone was aggrieved: "The minister is guilty." Big brother, you are angry. ”

Taking a deep breath, Liu Zhiyuan calmed down, sat back in his seat, and ordered: "Tomorrow, in front of the generals, you apologize to Gao Xingzhou." ”

"I ......" Hearing this, Murong Yanchao immediately had something to say.

"Huh?" Liu Zhiyuan only hummed softly.

Frightened by the majesty, his expression changed for a while, and Murong Yanchao lowered his head and responded: "Yes!" ”

"I'm tired, you stand down."

After Murong Yanchao retreated, Liu Zhiyuan shook his head and sighed, but after reprimanding Murong Yanchao, his mood was much better.

"What about King Zhou? Why haven't you seen him all this time? After taking a sip of hot tea, Liu Zhiyuan suddenly asked.

The chamberlain hurriedly went to inquire, and soon came back and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Zhou has gone down to inspect the camp and observe the enemy's situation." ”

"Oh. He ......" Hearing this, Liu Zhiyuan's thoughts were a little complicated.
