After a two-day delay, the subordinates accelerated production and prepared all the "compressed military rations" needed for this battle, Wang Yan and Mu Guiying began to march towards the east with their men and horses, but they were not in a hurry.

The morale, thinking, integrity, and discipline of Ma Jinsi and others were personally trained by Da Yan, and there was absolutely no problem. However, having rich experience in gang fights and fights does not mean that you have rich experience in battle formations, and these two scenes have certain commonalities, but there are also many differences.

At present, the purpose of slowing down the march is to give Ma Jinxi time to familiarize themselves with the characteristics of the forbidden army's armaments to the greatest extent. There is no secret in this regard, except for the explanation of the forbidden army, the most important thing is to rely on one's own attempts, put on each other's armaments, and conduct confrontation drills of a certain intensity.

At the same time, the experienced Mu Guiying organized them to explain some key points that need to be paid attention to on the battlefield of sword soldiers.

Wang Yan is very supportive of Aunt Mu opening this military course, which will not turn them into masters, but it can make them more obscene and improve their survivability on the battlefield.

What's more important is that people always have a subconscious fear of the unknown, and when facing the battlefield, once it is different from what they think, no matter how well-disciplined the army is, there will be some problems. So now I said something through Mu Guiying's mouth in advance, and facing this problem squarely is equivalent to taking a vaccination.

This will more or less have some impact on the morale of the money in battle, just like the vaccination in later generations also has side effects, because the vaccine is also a kind of virus. There will be a little formation in the initial stage after the fight, but the price is far better than letting the inner body immunity troops fight the virus in an unfamiliar situation.

Therefore, with Wang Yan's "political commissar" personally supervising the formation, then the negative impact of Mu Guiying's military class can be ignored. After every military class, Wang Yan brainwashed them with a political class, which can smooth out the "negative reaction brought about by the vaccine......

Two days later, the march slowly reached the town of Zongyang.

In this process, a small number of gangsters were frightened by Mu Guiying's class content, so Wang Yan gave them another chance, and they chose to quit. About eleven people.

That's the side effect of vaccines.

But this is not important in Wang Yan's eyes, and it does not affect the main force of this battle at all. This means that the team's bloodline is more pure. Converted to the body, it means that the body is more condensed, only fat and fat are removed, and it seems that the weight has become lighter but the strength is not affected, and the efficiency is higher......

The news that Wang Yan and Mu Guiying were appointed by the Huaixi Shuai Si to go out to suppress the bandits is confidential in the Huaixi territory, but after the news entered Beijing, there was already an uproar.

As the Huaixi marshal's seal and the emperor's order, Sima Guang jumped three zhang high after hearing Huaixi's report while recuperating in the spa.

"The old man can't bear Chen Jianming's stupidity and Wang Yan's madness." Sima Guang jumped out of the hot spring pool naked.

While putting on his clothes, the guard lowered his voice and said, "Why is Xianggong so angry, please try not to involve Chen Jianming, he is Chen Xiang's son-in-law." ”

Sima Guang reprimanded angrily: "I can say whatever I want, where did the bandits in Huaixi come from, they don't exist." He Chen Jianming was bewitched by Wang Yan and used political means to smear Sima Guang's face. They are too bold to dare to make a hasty characterization and use the word 'bandits' because they just reported the case to the egg gang? Boldly and recklessly launched a military operation from the Lu'an Army? Who gave them the guts. Those people in Qingliu Mountain have never done a major case before, they are the people of the Great Song Dynasty! ”

……

In fact, Sima Guang is a joke now, the bigwigs in Beijing are better than ghosts, and they are definitely not stupid enough to participate in these things for the sake of Sima Guang's will. So now there is no place for Sima Guang to speak.

Standing on the bustling street of Bianjing, Sima Guang felt like crying without tears. Knowing that the frenzied Wang Yan intervened, and it was a military operation, there would soon be appalling news in the Huaixi realm, but now Sima Guang couldn't stop it, and no one who had the ability to stop it could see it.

"Where is the reason!" Sima Guang stood in the market and raised his head and roared.

The people of Bianjing didn't know this saint, seeing that he was wearing civilian clothes, and with two guards like butchers, he looked ruthless, and the surrounding hawkers were frightened and worried: "The big officials are calm, if there is a grievance, turn right forward and it will be Kaifeng Mansion, Lord Bao Qingtian will give you the master, you must not make trouble on the street and affect us, it is not easy for us to escape life." ”

Sima Guang thought about it, and it seemed that it was really a way to find Bao Zheng.

So he immediately took the guards and hurriedly went to Kaifeng Mansion.

Bao Zheng has no right to interfere in Huaixi's military politics, but after all, he is one of the bigwigs, and his prestige and influence are all there, so he can only be counted on now.

Otherwise, Sima Guang would only stare dryly. Although he was appointed by the emperor as a marshal of Huaixi, now he doesn't even have a defense. Just because he was going to come to Beijing for treatment, of course, the customs defense and rights had to be temporarily transferred.

Although he is still a marshal minister in Huaixi, he has to wait until the "discharge procedures" are completed, go to the Ministry of Officials with the certificate of the Tai Hospital to complete the procedures, and return to Huaixi in person with the procedures to get back the rights.

Before this, although Chen Jianming's grandson was only a temporary general judgment in Shuzhou, he had already mastered all the rights in Huaixi. And he authorized the operation of the Lu'an Army to send troops to Qingliushan!

When he came to Kaifeng Mansion and saw Bao Zheng, who had half white hair, Sima Guang saluted and said, "Xiaguan has seen Bao Mansion. ”

Bao Zheng put down the paperwork in his hand and said, "This mansion is very busy, what you want to say needs to be simple." ”

Sima Guang was also direct, sat down and said without drinking water: "Huaixi is about to fall apart, please ask Bao Fu to take action!" ”

Hearing what he said so seriously, Bao Zheng couldn't help but look at Zhanzhao beside him.

Zhan Zhao said with a strange expression: "It must be implicated in that gentleman Wang Yan?" ”

"Exactly." Sima Guang said, "They actually identified a bandit because of the robbery of cattle and eggs during my absence, and now Chen Jianming authorized Mu Guiying and Wang Yan to supervise the formation, launched a military operation, and sent troops from the Lu'an Army." ”

I told you the details at the moment.

Bao Zhengleng was stunned, but after thinking about it for a while, he couldn't think of the problem, so he twisted his beard curiously and said: "This government is puzzled, if there are really ploughing cattle and eggs being robbed, of course this is a banditry." If the forces involved in the abduction are numerous and the ordinary people are not strong enough to investigate, then it seems that there is nothing wrong with choosing to send troops from the forbidden army? ”

Sima Guang said: "It sounds simple, but this is also the evidence that Wang Yan dared to instigate Chen Jianming to authorize military operations. But Bao Fu clearly sees that there are two sides to everything. If we change people, we can indeed pay attention to it temporarily, but when it comes to Wang Yan, the psychology of the lower officials has never been stable, and I am afraid that a big problem will happen. What kind of person is that kid, you just need to ask the Zhan guards. ”

Of course, Zhan Zhao knows who Wang Yan is, that is a little demon king. This time it may be a robbery, but to put it bluntly, it is also two groups of people fighting for profit.

The biggest problem is that Wang Yan is a tyrant at all, and in this competition for interests, he easily and skillfully escalates into a military operation.

It is a matter of interests, and coupled with the style of heroism, it is also a pretext for military action. So Zhan Zhao now knows why Sima Guang is in a hurry. This is basically already a symbol of the bloody wind.

In view of the fact that he didn't like Wang Yan in the first place, Zhan Zhao said to Bao Zheng in a fair attitude: "Bao Fu, the last general doesn't understand the big truth, but Lord Sima's uprightness is well known. Although there is no evidence, the end will be a personal guarantee, and I saw with my own eyes that Wang Yan commanded the Jianghu people to burn down the crime scene in Taihu County. No matter what the starting point of such a person is, I am afraid that the military operation in which he participates will bring many sequelae that cannot be handled. Lord Sima's concern is not unreasonable. ”

Bao Zheng didn't respond in time, but got up with a frown and walked in the hall.

The confidant Mr. Gongsun said: "Bao Fu clearly sees that you have made the emperor unhappy several times. And now they say that the father of this bad boy is already on his way to Beijing, and he is about to take up an important position, and he is an upstart. And the person who authorized the military operation in Qingliushan was Chen Jianming, the son-in-law of Chen Zhizhong, the current prime minister, which was the first time that the Chen party took office. And when Zhang Fangping was protecting them, the students did not recommend that you behave out of line at this time. ”

"You ......" Sima Guang and Zhanzhao looked at Gongsun together, looking at Mr. Gongsun with a strange expression.

Mr. Gongsun said: "Why can you only be assertive, and I can't speak?" You're just saying what you think, and where is the evidence? There is no evidence and nothing happened, but you are asking Bao Fu to offend a few more brain shells at this juncture, I don't dare to ask you about your intentions, I just feel sorry for Bao Fu, he shouldn't make sacrifices anymore. ”

Zhan Zhao and Sima Guang glanced at each other, but had to be silent.

Bao Zheng continued to pace for a while, and said softly: "There is some truth in what Gongsun said. But this government also trusts Zhan Zhao and Sima Guang, at least in the impeachment of Pang Taishi, the two of you did not disappoint the old man, and you are on the side of justice. ”

Gongsun couldn't help but get anxious.

Bao Zheng then said: "This time, there were ploughing cattle and eggs that were robbed, and because of the large number of people in Qingliu Mountain, it was escalated into a military operation, and there is nothing wrong with this cause and effect. Secondly, the military action authorized by the Shuzhou General Judgment Division conformed to the system and rules of the Great Song Dynasty and was not illegal. Therefore, in principle, although the Kaifeng government has the responsibility of supervising the world's legal cases, this incident has not yet formed a 'case', so it is not suitable for the government to intervene. ”

Sima Guang couldn't help but be disappointed.

Glancing at Zhan Zhao, Bao Zheng said: "However, this government does not intervene in official affairs, but it also trusts the judgment of Sima Guang and Zhan Zhao in principle." This government is also a parent official, and it also cares about the safety of the people in the world. If there is really a misunderstanding, Qingliushan is not a bandit, but it is being used by others, and then a river of blood is flowing, which is not what the government wants. ”

When he heard this, Mr. Gongsun closed his eyes and sighed.

"Zhan Guard." Bao Zheng said.

"The end will be." Zhan Zhao knelt down to receive the order.

When Bao Zheng turned to sit down, he said: "In principle, Kaifeng Mansion cannot interfere in the military and politics of Huaixi, Zhanzhao, you have to remember that this is the principle and the bottom line." ”

"The last will understand." Zhan Zhao said lightly.

Bao Zheng said again: "However, Zhan Guard, as an envoy of the imperial city, has no restrictions on the jurisdiction of the jurisdiction, and you have the obligation to pay attention to the affairs of the Great Song Emperor during the 'non-guarding' period, but everything in the world is the emperor's business." Therefore, the government has temporarily relieved you of your duty of protection, and you have a two-month period of freedom, during which time no one asks what you are going to do. Secondly, there is a private letter in this government, which is addressed to Liu Zhichao, the official of the Wuwei Army, who is my student. After your private exchanges, if you think that the Huaixi military action is inappropriate, then act cheaply, and be good at dealing with evil forces within the framework of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Sima Guang hurriedly said: "In this way, half of the official's heart has fallen. There are Zhan guards who rode fast horses to Huaixi, and the safety of Huaixi was entrusted to Zhan Guards. ”

Zhan Zhao was a very simple actionist, and he didn't say anything, and after accepting Bao Zheng's letter to the Wuwei Army Governor, he took the three fast horses of Kaifeng Mansion and left Beijing quickly......
