The relationship between Du Bai, Xiao Jiasui and Zhao Yue is not shallow, and they know Zhao Yue's characteristics very well.

Zhao Yue's deeds in the Great Song Dynasty give people the impression of being arrogant and bold, as if he was young and impulsive, and the temper of the children of wealthy families has come up, and he often acts recklessly, but it has been proved that what you think is impossible and has bad consequences, Zhao Yue can do it, and no one laughs at the bad consequences or aftermath predicted in advance.

This is a miracle worker, with unpredictable wisdom and ability, you think the strategic decision is ridiculous, Zhao Yue is only afraid of it.

In the hearts of Du Xiao and the others, the king and the honest prince are leaders worthy of their lives to defend and follow, while Zhao Yue is a reckless and heroic person, not a politician, but a man who is trustworthy in his word, attaches great importance to love and righteousness, and is a brother they can entrust with life and death.

The two didn't know why Zhao Yue made this arrogant decision and were full of confidence, but they believed that Zhao Yue would not make the defeat of this war a laughing stock, and finally let them, who were specifically responsible for the implementation of the resolution, be unable to gain a foothold in the army from now on, and even be punished.

If it is a fiasco, it will not only be the two leaders of the Northern Army who will be damaged, but even the royal family that made the decision will have a great loss of reputation and prestige.

The Northern Army is advanced and powerful, and has outstanding advantages. The Goryeo army was backward and weak, but it was entrenched in the ancestral land and had many people.

Du Bai and Xiao Jiasui knew themselves and each other about this war, and the headquarters had already deduced the battle situation many times, and they had a certain grasp of this battle in their hearts, but they couldn't feel Zhao Yue's dependence, and they had no bottom in their hearts, and they were still secretly sweating about Zhao Yue's radical and risky plan.

It is very clear that they do not argue with Zhao Yue, with Zhao Yue's style of acting, once a decision is made on a major matter, it means that it is almost unchangeable. Just as Zhao Yue himself said at the meeting, he did not come to preside over the discussion, but to directly announce the decision.

The crazy resolution is here, and the generals who hold either point of view feel unreliable.

But the king can delegate power. Zhao Gonglian doesn't care about the war here. The only person in the world who can make Zhao Yue honestly bow his head and change his mind is the queen. Everyone knows that Zhao Yue listens to his mother the most. But Queen Zhang would never interfere with her young son's decision in such a matter.

As a person who is very close to the Cangzhao family, Du Bai Xiao Jiasui also has a closer understanding of the Cangzhao family.

The king and his wife don't care about the power and wealth of the empire in their hearts, their selfishness is to let their children freely pursue their dreams, whether the children want to do succeed or fail, this is not the most important thing. It's good that the children are happy and feel that life is interesting.

Du Yan and Xiao Jiasui knew this selfishness of the imperial master couple, and they were both envious and bitter.

From ancient times to the present, it was the first time they had heard of a family with such a child's play-like mentality that could seize the country.

All right.

Since you can't change the resolution, let's be as active as the generals and do everything possible to realize the strategic plan.

Consequence?

Win or lose, that's a matter for later, let's throw it aside.

The big deal in life is death.

Zhao Yue personally participated in the battle and was not afraid of death. People who sit on the throne are not afraid of failure. What else is there to be afraid of as a follower?

I was originally a grass farmer struggling at the bottom of society, with no future, no hope, almost nothing, but now with status, power, future and hope, there is actually nothing that cannot be lost. The empire led by the Cangzhao family can lead the poor and hopeless people from all over the world to rise and change the trajectory of fate, and how can it lead everyone to create miracles again.

Too many officers are in this state of mind at the moment.

Prince, brother, young master...... If you want to go crazy, then we will go crazy with you. You are not afraid of life and death, and I am not afraid of a bad life.

The vast majority of the soldiers of the Great East Asian Empire during this period still retained the simplicity, righteousness and enthusiasm of reckless heroes.

The generals rushed to fight, but when they saw that Zhao Yue's determination was irreversible, they were very determined to implement the resolution with all their might. The prince dared to bet on this. We also gambled with us.

Fate to get together, brothers, defeated, and dying together is also a good ending. In the next life, let's get together again, and fight side by side, whether the opponent is a ghost, a demon, a god, or a beast or a mortal, our brothers will fight side by side again.

Zhao Yue clearly felt the strong reckless righteousness that permeated the auditorium, mixed with a tragic and heroic atmosphere.

He smiled, silently scanning the blood-boiling faces and the burning and crazy eyes.

Whether you are a fierce robber, a stubborn thief, or a former country bully, you can be rich without losing blood, and you should not forget your roots.

But in this high-spirited atmosphere, the auditorium was still mixed with discordant laughter.

His gaze fell on the higher part of the middle column, and he suddenly changed his face and asked coldly: "Li Baomin, Wang Pengtao, do you think the resolution of the Imperial Supreme Command is ridiculous?" ”

One of the two named people wore armor, but the other was the regular dress of an officer, and they belonged to two factions with opposing opinions, both were the main generals who commanded a battalion of soldiers and horses, and they were both people who had a close relationship with the Cangzhao family, Li Baomin was the brother of Zhao Yue's cousin Zhao Xinzheng's wife, and Wang Pengtao was an orphan who was adopted and raised by the Cangzhao family in the early days.

Although the two had different opinions on the war in Goryeo and had different arms, they had the same temper and had a good relationship, and they sat together in a meeting.

When the generals enthusiastically invited the war just now, they also mixed in, and then sat down and continued to laugh and laugh casually, laughing and laughing happily, never expecting that Zhao Yue, who had been ignoring the noise and small movements in the audience, would suddenly attack them.

Hearing the question, the two couldn't help but be stunned.

The mocking smile was still hanging on the face before it had time to rein, and it was combined with the stunned face that was still casual and indifferent in the heart, forming a strange expression.

But they sat relatively far forward, and their eyes were good, and they could detect the indifference in Zhao Yue's eyes, so they stood up in shock.

Thousands of pairs of eyes in the auditorium were staring at the two of them for a moment, and the two of them were extremely embarrassed and cramped.

Zhao Yue stared at the two of them, and said in a gentle tone: "Looking at your previous demeanor and behavior, both laughing at the resolution and disdaining my hosting, I guess you two have any better propositions and stronger abilities, then come forward, you might as well demonstrate it to everyone." ”

When the second general heard this, he only felt a fear rushing into his heart for the first time, his cold hair stood upside down, and he was terrified, but when he thought about his relationship with the Cangzhao family, and then pondered Zhao Yue's tone, he was so nervous that his heart put down a lot when he mentioned his throat.

Wang Pengtao straightened his military uniform, and said boldly and boldly: "Report to the prince, we"

Zhao Yue didn't allow him to continue, and said indifferently: "What? Do you want me to ask you to come out a second time? ”

The second general felt bad, and after looking at each other, he had no choice but to come out of the queue, walked to the podium slowly, and stood respectfully to Zhao Yue, pleading with a face.

Zhao Yue glanced away, and said lightly: "If you don't agree with the resolution and have a more intelligent opinion, don't discuss it below, please consciously come to the front to talk about it." That's what it takes to be responsible. ”

But the storm may even be a thunderstorm, and who will be stupid enough to stand up and show that they are not serious at this juncture?

The officers who had been playing casually before were all sitting solemnly, as if the ones who had been doing small things before had nothing to do with him. And they did not believe. With such a large auditorium and so many people, no matter how smart and magical Prince Puji is, he can still remember everyone who does not respect him.

Zhao Yue waited quietly for a while, and when he saw that no one took the initiative to stand up, he gently reminded: "Is there really no one who takes the initiative to stand up?" ”

At this moment, the Great Hall was as silent as death.

Zhao Yue waited for a while, but still no one stepped forward.

In disappointment, he tapped his fingers on the microphone, made a loud electronic sound, and then said, "If you don't want to take the initiative, then please do it." ”

Before the words fell, Wang Nianjing, who had been standing quietly near the exit of the gate, strode into the auditorium with a knife, and went straight to the position where Li Baomin and Wang Pengtao were sitting, and said coldly to one of the two lieutenants: "Your Highness has an order, please two of you." ”

These two lieutenants will follow closely with their own generals, commonly known as the same party or a raccoon dog, before holding the main general frolicking happily, the incident originally secretly hoped to get by, but at this time can only stand up hard, obediently go to the main general's side.

As soon as Wang Nianjing moved, several of Zhao Yue's guards who were standing at the same door also moved, and they split up to invite people.

At this time, as soon as several doors in the side room of the auditorium opened, some officers and soldiers poured in, and groups of 351 officers and soldiers also poured in to invite people.

When the officers looked at these officers and soldiers, their eyelids couldn't help jumping.

Even if they could not see the faces of the officers and soldiers and did not recognize them, the special clothing proved that these people were members of the king's guard. Zhao Yue was obviously premeditated.

The guards finished their work and disappeared into the gloom of the side room or doorway.

But Zhao Yue himself added that he named more than 20 junior officers whose ranks were usually sandwiched between thousands of officers and were difficult to remember.

When the officers saw the expressions of these named junior officers, they knew that none of them had been wronged by Zhao Yue.

There was a gasp in the auditorium.

The officers in the auditorium were all shocked by Zhao Yue's eyesight and memory. If it was said that Zhao Yue had prepared in advance to communicate with an alien officer before, and he could pretend to be magical, then now this fact proves that Zhao Yue has incredible abilities.

A moment later, forty or fifty officers stood in the open space in front of the podium in the auditorium.

Among them, in addition to Li Baomin and Wang Pengtao, there are also three general-level dignitaries, in terms of the close relationship with Cangzhao, one is the outstanding younger generation of Zhao Yue's grandfather's wife, Guo Lao Taijun's mother's family; One is the younger brother of the old head of Zhao Zhuang.

The other officers came from a variety of backgrounds, but none of them were of any different race.

In the awe of the audience, Zhao Yue's gaze swept to the officer who invited him out, and said gently: "Okay, now you are free to express your opinions." First of all, I promise that I will listen patiently. Which of you was the first to speak? ”

The officers all bowed their heads slightly. Still no one took the initiative to speak.

Zhao Yue asked, "Why don't you make a sound?" ”

"Are you standing in public without anything to say? Or do you disdain to tell everyone about your brilliant ideas? ”

The officers' bodies shuddered involuntarily, and their heads hung lower.

Zhao Yue frowned and said, "It's shameful and a crime to waste other people's time. As you all know, I hate wasting my time. If you have something to say, say it quickly. ”

Still no one answered.

The corners of Zhao Yue's mouth hooked up with a smile, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

The four main generals who were close to the Cangzhao family peeked at Zhao Yue's smile and shining gaze, and their hearts were cold, and their legs were weak. With their understanding of Zhao Yue, they knew that this kind of smile was not tolerant, benevolent and friendly, but a harbinger of a murderous outbreak.

At this time, the four generals no longer dared to take advantage of the luck mentality of the relationship, and knelt down on the ground and begged together: "The last general will be guilty." ”

The other officers did not dare to slack off, and they all knelt down to admit their mistakes.

Zhao Yue forcibly suppressed his disappointment and annoyance, restrained his murderous intentions, and asked the chief magistrate of the Northern Army: "Those who have no military discipline, ignore military affairs, and stir up military meetings, according to military law, what crime should be discussed?" ”

The chief military judge stood up, stood up solemnly and shouted, "Behead." ”

He had long been angry with these officers who proved that he was incompetent in law enforcement and slapped him in the face, and he hated that he could not personally clean it up.

His resentment was not only caused by today's events, but also the resentment that had slowly accumulated in the past.

Relying on their close relationship with the royal family and their strong backstage, Li Baomin, Wang Pengtao, and others have repeatedly provoked the law enforcement power of the camp magistrates in the past, making irresponsible remarks about the command and dispatch of the headquarters, and even violating the rules and regulations of the headquarters, causing bad or even bad consequences, and even arrogantly seeking provocations and insulting the chief magistrate in public, despising him as just a tenant slave of the royal family, and he is not qualified to restrain them as half-masters under the pretense of military law. The impact is devastating.

Aroused by the old hatred of the past, hoping that Zhao Yue would eliminate this group of black sheep with a heavy hand, the chief magistrate added: "It is not considered military law, but only according to the rules of secular etiquette and law, and those who despise and provoke the authority of the prince in public should also be beheaded if they confess their guilt." ”

When Li Baomin, Wang Pengtao and the other four generals heard this, they couldn't help but turn their heads viciously and resentfully to stare at the chief magistrate, and scolded in their hearts: "Dog slave, dare to take the opportunity to fall into the well." You wait for grandpa to settle the account with you afterwards. I can't kill you, grandpa and your surname ......"

Zhao Yue saw the arrogance of the four generals clearly, but suppressed his anger and announced: "You have also paid blood and sweat for the establishment of the empire, and being able to become an officer proves that you all have credit to the empire." Although the Empire has repaid you for its work, the past is gone. But I don't punish for the sake of prestige without teaching. I remember that you are the first offender in front of my eyes, and I will not kill you this time. ”

When these officers heard that they would not kill, they couldn't help but feel relieved and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Baomin waited for him to say: Take the close people and beat them, and stand up, but the stick is raised high and put down gently. I knew it was going to happen.

They even secretly turned their heads and stared at the chief magistrate defiantly.

The Magistrate-General was disappointed.

But I heard Zhao Yue say again: "Chief Judicial Officer, your ministry will dismiss all these people from the military, and arrange their future lives fairly according to their repeated crimes, similar to the relevant laws and regulations of the empire on prisoners of war." ”

There are no more than two kinds of treatment of prisoners of war.

One is to join the imperial army as a forward daring army, still able to swing a knife to the battlefield, perform well, have the opportunity to obtain imperial nationality, and be incorporated into the regular army of the Han people. If you perform well in the army, get promoted or even reused, your future will naturally be bright.
