Chapter 484: Dispatch of Troops
"Who did you take away from the Northwest Army to guard the Northwest, Li Yuanhao called, you still want the emperor to go." Wen Yanbo was the first to question Lu Zifei's request.
Lu Zifei said: "Anyway, if you want me to go, I will ask for this request, if I can't agree to you, I will find another master, forgive me for being powerless, and I want Di Qing to be the leading general, because he has been training the Northwest Army and is familiar with them." ”
The northwest has always been a big problem, so in the choice of the northwest and the southeast, the imperial court will definitely be more inclined to the northwest, but the southeast is a mess now, and ordinary people may not be able to deal with it well.
Song Yi said: "Is it possible for Western Xia to enter the northwest or not, let's solve the urgent need first, Fan Xiwen went to the northwest, I think Li Yuanhao will not dare to act rashly!" After all, both of them are old rivals. ”
Lu Zifei knew very well that the current Western Xia had not expanded its territory at all, Li Yuanhao lingered in various beauties all day long, and he was already very satisfied with his current achievements.
But this will Lu Zifei really don't want to go to Guangzhou, mainly because his children are still young, and the world is developing to a better side, if he dies young, it will be a pity.
The courtiers also understood what Song Qi meant, and their sense of smell was definitely stronger than Lu Zifei's grasp of the overall situation, but why didn't Lu Zifei take away the 50,000 Northwest Army? Because they were afraid that the 50,000 Northwest Army would go to Guangzhou and become Lu Zifei's private army.
Bao Zheng said: "If you want the horses to run, and don't give the horses grass, there is no reason in the world, he has a reason to refuse you, but for the sake of the court, for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, he is still willing to leave his family to fight thousands of miles away, you don't even have a little basic trust, who can leave with confidence." ”
This is purely to help relatives and not to help, but what Bao Zheng said does make sense, Zhao Zhen then remembered that he was still a young man in his early twenties, and he had paid enough for the Zhao family and the Zhao family.
"You take the 50,000 Northwest Army with you, and the generals are at your disposal, but you must make a military order here, dare not."
Lu Zifei said: "The emperor trusts the minister so much, the minister will definitely not disappoint the lords and the emperor, if there is an accident, I am willing to compensate all the benefits of the Lu family overseas to the people present, this sentence can also be written in the military writ." ”
"Lord Lu, you said it yourself, we didn't force you."
"Yes, yes, yes, it's Lu Hou himself who said it, clerk, you have to remember it."
Lu Zifei said with a smile: "Don't worry, everyone, I, Lu Zifei, am also a dignified seven-foot man, and the Lord can still do this." ”
After the next court, in the vertical arch hall, Zhao Zhen said to Lu Zifei: "Just like you said, professional things are handed over to professional people, and I don't worry about the rest, remember my words, no matter what, you must save your life, and life is capital." ”
Lu Zifei is still quite moved, Zhao Zhen has very little suspicion of others in himself, it is not easy for an emperor to do this step, there are many examples of getting close to the emperor and being beheaded in the end, but when Zhao Zhen was the emperor, these people basically retreated.
Nong Zhi Gao Lu Zifei really didn't take it to heart, how capable a little earth king can be, and using 50,000 Northwest troops to clean them up can be said to be the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves! Lu Zifei's position this time is a serious civil official, so he does not have the right to open a government and build a government, so he can only fill in the holy decree in the palace first.
Half a month later, Qin Cha arrived at Fengxiang Mansion, Shaanxi Jingluo met with Qin Cha, and heard that there was a holy decree to give to the Northwest Army, so he notified Chong Shiheng, Di Qing, and Zhang Qi as soon as possible.
"The emperor has an order to order Di Qing to be the main general and Zhang Qi to be the deputy general, and lead the 50,000 Northwest Army to immediately set off for Guangnan East Road to quell the rebellion."
A holy decree without a head and no end stunned several people present, there was a holy decree written like this, took the holy decree and checked it, and found that the seal on it was complete, there was no problem at all, it was a true holy decree.
"Lord Neiguan, what the hell is going on, you see that we have been at the border for a long time, and we don't know what is happening in the imperial court, you tell us about it." After saying that, a dozen silver coins were put into the hands of the eunuchs.
The eunuch knew that this kind of benefit was shared by the people who announced the decree, so he boldly put it into his pocket with confidence, and repeated Yang Wenguang's defeat and the appointment in the court.
After listening to it, only Chong Shiheng was sullen, Di Qing and Zhang Qi were happy, they were simple generals, and the value of generals who did not fight could reflect their value.
"Smile, Fan Xianggong is coming to Shaanxi again, and you were promoted by him again, isn't that good?"
Chong Shiheng said: "I also want to fight, how many years has the Northwest Army been in the army, it's a pity, that kid actually looks down on me, and he didn't mention me in the holy decree." ”
Zhang Qi laughed and said, "Then you are wrong, we can't all leave!" He thinks you're better than the two of us, that's why he let you stay, don't be dissatisfied. ”
Chong Shiheng sighed: "I still remember when he left the battlefield, his face was immature, he has been in charge of us for only a few years, the Northwest Army came from his suggestion, he did not take the forbidden army this time, only you, it was okay, I am afraid that there will be no Northwest Army in the future." ”
Di Qing said: "He is a person who went out of the northwest, and his view of the war is at least stronger than those literati who don't know anything, this time we must play the prestige of the Northwest Army, no matter how bad it is, we must prove that we are stronger than the forbidden army." ”
Zhang Qi said: "You two are here to worry about it, at that time in the chaotic Song and Xia battlefield, with 300 remnants of the defeated generals can survive, you say that he doesn't know military affairs better than us, isn't the proof of the Northwest Army enough?" The last time I saw him and talked to him, I knew that he was better than us in terms of military opinions. ”
Di Qing said: "But he has never fought!" ”
"He has fought more battles than you, I can't wait to fight side by side with him, the hunger and thirst in my heart have waited too long for this moment, since it is from the waterway, then let's travel lightly!"
Knowing that he embarked on the journey, some soldiers of the Northwest Army understood that they were going to the battlefield, Zhi Kexing was a small army commander, and the reason why he could become a military commander was that he was literate and could write, and after hearing some rumors, he firmly believed in his guess that the Northwest Army was going to Guangzhou, across the entire Great Song Dynasty.
Lu Zifei is not ready to go back to Luoyang, he wrote to his family that he went to Guangzhou to serve as a judge, and he will come back in a year and a half, he asked people to bring their own tokens to see Wei Chi, gunpowder must be brought enough, can the traverser be called a traverser if he doesn't cheat?
Wei Chi saw the letter and the token, carefully and carefully, from beginning to end three times, he knew that once the gunpowder was wrong, it would not be enough for him to die a hundred times, until he was sure that it was correct, and the gunpowder in the powder magazine finally saw the light of day five years later.
Weapons, gunpowder, and personnel were all solved, leaving the last baggage problem, and after a few thoughts, he made the same decision as Di Qing and went into battle lightly, but the order given to Ma Yi was that all the grain should be left in Guangzhou, and not a single grain should be allowed to flow to other places.
This time, the eldest wife and the second wife couldn't go to Guangzhou to quell the rebellion, and the third wife was already in Guangzhou, so he decided to recruit the fourth wife back and take it with him.
"You go to the Daimyo's Mansion and invite Miss Li back, if she says that she can't rest assured of those children, you tell her, just say that Tsinghua University is their best destination."
Three days later, Master Li saw the person who came to pick her up, and the little pride in her heart made her not want to admit defeat, even if Lu Zifei bowed her head first.
"Who are you, are you here to persecute my sister again, sister, don't be afraid, I'll call a few brothers back." The honest Da Niu looked at the Lu family's guard and said, his trembling thighs still betrayed the fear in his heart, because he saw that the guard was carrying a weapon.
Master Li hurriedly said: "Da Niu, he is my sister's friend, it's okay." ”
"I saw the carriage at the door, sister, don't be afraid, we will protect you."
The guard said, "Miss Li, the head of the family is about to go on an expedition, don't you really want to go back to see him?" ”
"Go on the expedition, what kind of expedition does he go out of a literati, don't lie to me, if you really want to be sincere, he will pick me up by himself."
"Miss Li, do you think I dare to lie to you about this? Now the head of the family has almost prepared, the day of the expedition is the recent, I don't know what year and month will return to the capital, the head of the family can not rest assured that you let us pick up the girl back. ”
Master Li also wanted to see Lu Zifei in her heart, missing him very much, seeing the guard's serious expression, all the pride in her heart disappeared, and she only wanted to see the person she missed in her heart now.
"What about hundreds of children, they can't live without me."
"The head of the family also has an explanation, and he will send them all back to Luoyang to continue their schooling, and these families will arrange them."
Master Li's heart was very warm, she knew that he had been paying attention to herself, and she was happy, but she still had to have the reserve that a girl should have, and told the guards that she had to pack up her things and wait for two days.
"Miss Li, don't embarrass us, if there is any contradiction, you go back and settle accounts with the head of the family slowly, you really won't be able to see the head of the house after a while."
The guards are also speechless, obviously the two of them have love and concubines, but they want to be the same as the enemy, is it interesting?
When Master Li left, more than 100 children looked at her with teary eyes, Master Li almost stayed, she also knew that these children could have a better tomorrow when they arrived in Luoyang, so she thought of this and left with a hard heart.
The necessary procedure before Lu Zifei left was to have a long talk with Li Lin all night, and Li Lin said in frustration: "I feel that the three of us are the most useless one." ”
"The division of labor is clear, what is useful or useless, your task is also very arduous, we now have a big business, there are many places to worry about, and you are not so easy alone, this time I will go south, I estimate that it will not take a few years to come back, and the family will be handed over to you."
Knowing the roots and knowing the bottom of the brothers for so many years, they can understand each other's meaning with one look and one expression, and there is no need to say more, everything is in the wine of the two men.
