After hearing this, Emperor Dade and the others felt that this method was very wonderful, but in fact, there was no need to make a big deal about it to deal with the anti-thieves of the Heavenly Fire Sect. Five years ago, the reason why Emperor Taiqian asked Zhao Jie to lead the army to the expedition was actually another important reason, Zhao Jie supported the fifth prince Xuanyuan Zixiao, that is, the current Emperor Dade. The reason why Zhao Jie supported Emperor Dade was because he had a grudge against Gu Yong, who had been refuted by Zhao Jie when he deduced the birch river in the military department during the first battle of the birch river.

At that time, Gu Yong was the champion of the empire and a relative of the emperor, so he naturally didn't feel scared of Zhao Jie, so he argued with Zhao Jie on the basis of reason, and the two had a good quarrel. If it was a quarrel, Zhao Jie's son Zhao Lu saw that Gu Yong's words were rude, so he stepped forward and beat him, but he was beaten to the ground by Gu Yong with three punches and two feet. He Yuanbo was disgraced, and threatened that if Gu Yong was in the military department, he would not be on duty in the military department.

The first emperor Taiqian Emperor was worried that Zhao Jie would interfere with the crown prince's accession to the throne, and he was also worried that Zhao Jie would ignore national affairs because of his personal enmity with Gu Yong, so he sent him to Jiangnan to quell the rebellion. However, the Jiangnan rebellion, the army was useless, so that it was still unable to completely eradicate the rebels for five years.

However, after thinking about it, Du Shanbo immediately objected, and he said: "The Suzaku Legion has been a thief for five years, but not only can the thief not be found, but even the commander has been damaged. If they retreat, what is the mood of the three armies? You have not forgotten the wound of the defeat of the Xuanwu Legion in the Birch River, since that time, it is to create another Xuanwu Legion, and there is no spirit, not to mention low morale, the combat power is underground, and when you see the Inuyi, you will flee in the wind. The Holy Han Forbidden Army can no longer have a Xuanwu Legion, and the Holy Han Forbidden Army cannot be defeated anymore. ”

Although the Xuanwu Legion now has six regiments, there are only 20,000 people, and the generals are all Wu Chang and Shi Chang Du Lieutenants, etc., and there are very few soldiers, which only temporarily maintain the need to protect the imperial city. After the defeat of the Birch River, the Xuanwu Legion no longer had the slightest will to fight, and even the Silver Guards attacked the palace, and the Xuanwu Legion did not dare to come forward to quell the chaos, which shows how timid and incompetent its soldiers will be.

But Dushan Bo has not finished speaking, in addition to the Xuanwu Legion, there is also an army that cannot rebuild the spirit after defeat, the Green Dragon Legion, and the Green Dragon Legion has always been known as the Imperial Army, which belongs directly to the emperor or the crown prince, and the spirit of this army has also been dispersed, how can there be a strong army to defend the royal family from now on?

"Uncle Dushan, do you have a high opinion?" Steyn's face flushed, and he bowed in question.

Du Shanbo thought for a long time before he said: "If you only march and command, the king of Nanyang County is enough, he hurts his legs, but not his brain." In my opinion, the king of Nanyang County is better than many people's brains, is the military department not convinced? ”

Shi Yong smiled bitterly and nodded, it's not that he can't refute, it's just that he didn't think about comparing himself with a disabled person.

Everyone has fun in their hearts, this court is your Dushan Bo has the final say, the front foot said that the king of Nanyang County is not good, and the back foot said that he is the only one, the positive and negative words are all yours, what is the use of our military department here? But no one dared to say anything, after all, now the court really has the final say, and even the emperor doesn't refute it.

After a while, Emperor Dade smiled and nodded, and he held back his anger. The fifth prince of the Great Emperor Xuanyuan Zixiao is stronger than the prince Xuanyuan Zixun, that is, he can forbear, a word forbearance, so that he finally became the emperor. Emperor Dade smiled: "In this way, I will do what my uncle said, the Ministry of War, and draw up the regulations." ”

"Whoa." Shi Yong said busily.

Du Shanbo suddenly asked: "By the way, about the situation in Saibei, the imperial court has been arguing for a month, right?" ”

Shi Yong said: "Yes, this son has contributed to the empire, but giving up the robe is a capital crime, this ...... The law of reward and punishment is really a lot of controversy. ”

Emperor Dade asked: "Compared with the major national events, Zhang Xiaowu's rewards and punishments are also a trivial matter. But the military department has its own opinions, but it has delayed important matters, I don't know what Ye Dashuai thinks? ”

Dushan Bo stroked his beard and said: "It's just a three-rank general with a side stopper, where do you need to work so hard." If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have done it, you will be punished, that's all. ”

Stein stepped forward and said, "Uncle, abandon the robe and deserve to be a capital crime!" ”

Dushan Bo sighed and said: "The military department, the winning streak of Inuyi turned the tide of the battle in the north, what should be the reward?" ”

Gu Hongzhen, who was in charge of the military department's official examination, said: "Reward the body of the warrior clan, and reward the three marquis with merit." ”

Although Du Shanbo admired Zhang Xiaowu's bravery, but Zhang Xiaowu made a taboo, and did not take refuge in himself, why did he protect him and offend many generals, so he said slowly: "Meritorious work must be rewarded, my Holy Han Dynasty has always been rewarded and punished, and it was the Seven Princes who made mistakes that day, isn't Your Majesty also punished?" This son didn't save the robe, so that the public was angry, and it was time to punish him. Young man, he should always suffer some hardships, he has been used to it in the past few years, and the old man is afraid that he will be too proud and have no one in his eyes. ”

Emperor Dade said again: "Uncle, I don't know if what is said in this is true or false. You have some contact with the ghost general in Saibei, and if the ghost general is really a ruthless and unrighteous person, I can't use this person. ”

Du Shanbo said: "Your Majesty, how to punish him, you are in charge, how dare the old man say more." ”

Emperor Dade secretly scolded him in his heart for being an old fox, but he let himself do this kind of punishing thing, and he didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his pocket. He looked at the crowd and said: "The Ministry of War, remove Zhang Xiaowu from the post of General Saibei, remove the reward of the Marquis of Sanpin, set up a recruitment envoy to lead the military and civilian affairs of Saibei, and let the Ministry draw up a list another day and give it to me to take a look." ”

The next day, Gu Hongzhen, the left attendant of the military department, stepped forward to play, and the commander of the Vermilion Bird Legion, Heyuan Bo Zhao Jie, died of an old illness at the age of sixty-one. For a while, the court was shaken, and there were many discussions, after all, this Zhao Jie was the pillar of the two empires on the same level as Dushan Bo, and he actually died of illness in the army, which was somewhat unacceptable. Immediately, the imperial historian stepped forward and said: "Uncle Heyuan Zhao Jie has always been strong, and he will definitely not die rashly, and ask His Majesty to send someone to investigate, and give Uncle Heyuan justice." ”

Emperor Dade scolded in his heart, you stupid imperial history, I asked the military department to say this, so I can give the Zhao family a psychological comfort, you are good, let me send someone to investigate the case, and I am confused!

Zhang Kuan snorted coldly and said, "Is now the time to discuss the investigation of the hidden situation?" Regardless of the weight of the stuff, go down. ”

The imperial history was startled, and the horse's fart slapped on the horse's leg, and hurriedly retreated. The imperial history is subordinate to the Supervision Yuan, and there are 17 imperial history stations in 17 states across the country, which are specifically responsible for surveying the Yuezhou officialdom and everything. This is the imperial history of Yuezhou, he is most familiar with Yuezhou, naturally knows that Heyuan Bo Zhao Jie has always been in excellent health, thinking that if Zhao Jie died, there would be no one in the court to balance Dushan Bo, as a subordinate of Zhang Dang, he participated in a book.

However, the horse was wrong, the death of Heyuan Bo Zhao Jie made the court very passive, and the equal checks and balances of all parties were a game, how could they offend Dushanbo and wronged Dushanbo at this time. If Zhang Kuan didn't apply for him, he was afraid that Du Shanbo would react, and this inspectorate would be another catastrophe.
