Chapter 299: Please
Of course, the people of the Northern Zhou Dynasty couldn't think of it, and Li Xinchen was sure of it. Because in history, the Northern Zhou Dynasty ignored Bashu, a place that has the advantage of occupying the upper reaches of Nanchen, because there was no strong sailor.
It was not until the Sui Dynasty went south that Yang Su was sent into Bashu to integrate the Bashu army and build a five-tooth ship that specialized in restraining the Huanglong ship, which could be regarded as officially taking the Bashu downstream as a key business choice.
Therefore, the current Bashu is a piece of fat meat on the side of Nan Chen's mouth, as for whether to eat it or not, and how to eat it, it depends on how the people standing in this hall at this moment decide.
Zhou Qu and Xiao Maha set their eyes on Chen Shubao at the same time, no matter what, Chen Shubao is the crown prince of Nan Chen, and he has to make a decision in the end. Of course, Chen Shubao's decision also means that whether it is victory or defeat in the future, he must bear it first.
This is the responsibility of being the prince of Nanchen, and there is no way to help him share it, whether it is Zhou Qu or Xiao Maha.
However, it seems that Chen Shubao didn't realize this, he looked at the area on the map that was fingered by Li Xinchen with interest, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's really a big place." I don't know who General Li thinks is more appropriate? ”
Suddenly, one after another eyes fell on Li Xinchen, needless to say, I also knew that if he went west, the main general would definitely be Li Xinchen, after all, this plan was proposed by Li Xinchen, and Li Xinchen himself is a military general, of course, he will not throw this opportunity to make contributions to others.
The important thing is that Li Xinchen is definitely not the only one who goes westward this time, after all, Bashu is too big, and if he wants to sweep Bashu at the fastest speed, Li Xinchen can't do it himself, so how to insert his own children into this army that is destined to be meritorious once it succeeds is something that everyone present has to ponder.
There is merit in following Li Xinchen, which has been fully confirmed by Pei Zilie, Xiao Shilian and others.
"The last general is willing to take on this important task for Da Chen!" Li Xinchen said solemnly.
Chen Shubao was obviously very satisfied with Li Xinchen's initiative to ask for help, and he was very satisfied with the fact that others jumped out to share the matter without worrying about it: "If General Li is confident, then let it go, we can't be aggrieved in this Jiangling City, in this way, as long as you can take Badong, then Gu will protect you to your father and emperor for Badong!" ”
Padang Taishou? The surrounding officials looked at Li Xinchen enviously, with Li Xinchen's age, he was already the only one in Nanchen with the miscellaneous general, if he added a taishou, or even a taishou with solid land, it was really the first person deserved since the founding of Nanchen!
You must know that many of the people present have been in officialdom for half their lives before they can climb to this position.
I don't know if Chen Shubao really didn't realize what kind of promise he gave Li Xinchen, or if he also wanted to take this opportunity to completely tie Li Xinchen to the chariot of the East Palace, so in the face of the questioning eyes of Gu Yewang, Luo Ya and other officials who did not actually belong to the East Palace system, Chen Shubao was indifferent.
And Zhou Qu and the others didn't say anything, Li Xinchen was originally a person from the East Palace, and his contributions to the East Palace were really eye-catching, so being able to tie up Li Xinchen with a Padang Taishou was a good deal for the East Palace, not to mention that Li Xinchen was under Xiao Maha's command no matter what he said now, and if he didn't look at the face of the Buddha, there was no need for Zhou Qu and the others to have any conflict with Xiao Maha at this time.
Although the East Palace is powerful now, it is not strong enough to play internal division!
And Li Xinchen took a deep breath, he knew that when Chen Shubao said this, his efforts and thoughts for so many days were not in vain. immediately stepped forward and solemnly arched his hand: "The last general must live up to his mission!" In addition, the selection of the rest of the generals and soldiers of the army will be discussed carefully with the hussar generals at the end of this expedition, and strive to send troops within half a month! ”
Chen Shubao stretched out his hand and patted the arm of the chair, and his eyes, which had always been squinted, were already widening at this time: "Okay!" That Gu is looking forward to General Li's good news! ”
Chen Shubao has said everything about this, so naturally there is no room for other refutations and changes. The civil and military officials all looked at Li Xinchen and put away their envy and jealousy, because they had to have a good talk with the young General Li next.
Compared with the civil and military officials with different expressions, Li Xinchen looked quite calm at this time.
Perhaps most of the people present thought that this was Chen Shubao tying Li Xinchen to the chariot in the East Palace, but in Li Xinchen's heart, this was tying Chen Shubao to his chariot. This time, Li Xinchen is not very sure, and once there is really any accident, compared to Xiao Maha, it is obvious that Chen Shubao's backer is stronger and taller.
What's more, there are unexpected gains today.
Li Xinchen's eyes glanced at Gu Yewang and Luo Ya, who were sitting on the side, these two civil officials who had originally just come to make soy sauce had begun to fidget.
Guangluqing and the scattered cavalry are not positions with real power, in other words, "Qinggui", although Qinggui means that there is not much power, but it can also avoid being involved in the whirlpool of court struggles, at least there is no need to worry about the danger of being ruined day and night, but it is not necessarily a bad thing.
But now Gu Yewang and Luo Ya are sitting in this hall, and hearing Li Xinchen's strategy, it is also equivalent to hearing the most important plan of the East Palace, whether the success of the westward entry into Bashu will be related to whether the East Palace will continue to grow or be hit, if this plan leaks out and is obstructed by others, then the East Palace may fall into a place of no return.
After all, once the westward entry into Bashu is carried out according to Li Xinchen's plan, it is not only Li Xinchen who will be involved, but also Xiao Maha, Zhou Qu, who is still in Jiankang Mansion, and even Wu Mingche, who is standing on the side of the East Palace with a clear banner, will be involved because of their strong cooperation, so the confidentiality of this news is self-evident.
Beads of sweat had already appeared on Gu Yewang's forehead, and he really regretted why he didn't find an excuse to leave this place just now, at this time, the gazes of Xiao Maha, Zhou Qu and the others had already made him feel the threat and even the killing intent.
Although he is not at the core of power, he also knows what kind of power these people have in their hands, not to mention that he is now in Jiangling City, and all the people from the East Palace are three steps away, if he says the wrong word, there may be no way to return to Jiankang Mansion alive.
Compared to Gu Yewang, Luo Ya's expression was obviously more excited and expectant. He is younger than King Gu Ye, and the Luo family is just an insignificant small family, if it weren't for the chance that he saved the life of Chen Wendi Chen Qian in the war, I am afraid that he would not even have the opportunity to gain a foothold in the Chen Dynasty, so Luo Ya can get to this day step by step, most likely because of his own hard work.
But a small freelancer can't bring Luo Ya and the Luo family a respectable status, so if you can establish a connection with the East Palace, then whether it is for Luo Ya or the Luo family, it is unwanted.
