"That's right, I'm going here as a counselor by your side, right? I do not have any military position. Then, regardless of the success or failure of the counterinsurgency, I will not bear the consequences. I don't want any credit or anything like that. If something goes wrong, I'm not responsible. Lin Jue said.

"This is natural, I originally wanted to directly ask the emperor to transfer you to the Guards Infantry Division as a civilian, but I am afraid that you blame me for being a mess, so I didn't do it." Guo Kun nodded and smiled.

Lin Jue said coldly: "Fortunately, you didn't do that, I don't want to go to the Guards Infantry Division, I am a scholar, you let me join the army, this can't be done." ”

Guo Kun laughed and said: "You are a scholar, what kind of scholar are you?" Hahaha, okay, count you in. Didn't I say yes to this? Anything else? ”

Lin Jue rolled his eyes and continued: "Also, if I go with you to quell the rebellion, you have to listen to my advice. If you don't want to listen to me, then there's no need for me to go. Let's make it clear beforehand, if you stubbornly don't listen to my advice, then I'll leave. The province is unpleasant. ”

Guo Kun said with a smile: "Cheng Chengcheng, if I don't listen to you, you can leave at any time." However, I'm not a puppet, I'm a leading general, we can discuss in private, and yours will save me face. ”

Lin Jue said: "A word is a certainty. There is one last condition. ”

"Say it, say it. I said yes first. Guo Kun shouted.

Lin Jue waved his hand and said, "Uncle, I'm not joking, what I'm saying is considerate." This time to quell the rebellion, the emperor sent two princes to dispatch, King Jin and King Huai led the troops respectively, do you think there is something strange here? ”

"Strange? Didn't the emperor say it in his will? It is necessary for the King of Jin and the King of Huai to go through the experience. I think it's just a matter of letting them get credit for increasing their capital. Guo Kun said.

Lin Jue shook his head and said, "The experience is part of it, but I think it may have another meaning." I don't know exactly what the intentions are, but there is a hint of competition in this matter. The King of Jin and the King of Huai each led their troops, what would happen if one won and the other lost? Those who win are afraid of a great reputation, and those who lose are afraid that they will collapse. ”

"How can you lose? Impossible. If the imperial court really thinks that the Qingjiao is powerful, it will not let the two princes lead the army. It won't be defeated. Guo Kun said.

"Even if they all win, there is a priority. There are also big and small results. There is also a difference in battle damage. In short, to compare, there will always be comparisons. So I remind you that everything is based on the actual situation, and do not let this matter affect the battle. If you know that you are invincible, but you want to fight hastily for the sake of competition, it will be counterproductive. You know what I mean? Lin Jue said.

Guo Kun thought for a while and said, "What you mean is that we only care about the success of the bandits, and don't interfere with the decision for other things." Are you worried that King Jin will interfere with the battle? Well, it's a real possibility. Yes, this time I am afraid that it will be a test of the ability of the two of them, and I am afraid that it will be for the position of the prince in the future...... Do an expedition...... Oops, how did I not think of any of that? ”

Lin Jue nodded slowly and said, "Uncle, you are still not confused. You know by now that things are a little complicated. ”

Guo Kun nodded and said, "I understand, brother-in-law, this time we only care about the bandits, and don't care about the rest." Anyway, I won't listen to King Jin's words, everything will come according to our own plan. They can't be affected by the overall situation. We can't afford to lose. ”

"yes, that's what it means." Lin Jue said with a smile.

"Okay, I'm all right. Hurry up and pack up and come with me. Shen Shi is about to be pulled, and the emperor wants to see us off in person, so we can't delay. I've got all your armor and horses ready, and they're all in the front yard. Let's go. Guo Kun said busily.

Lin Jue smiled bitterly: "You have to let me arrange the family, right?" I'm going to arrange it in the yamen, right? Go ahead, and I will arrive before the hour comes. ”

Guo Kun shouted, "Don't let me go." ”

Lin Jue sighed: "My husband is full of words, and you also underestimate me." ”

Guo Kun smiled: "Come on, then I'll go and get busy first." Leave. ”

Lin Jue gave him his hand, the little county lord and Bai Bing, Xie Yingying and others also got up and saluted, Guo Kun bowed his hand and strode away.

In the small hall, the four husbands and wives looked at each other, not knowing what to say. The little county lord sighed: "Don't be angry, husband, don't blame my brother." My brother has always been like this, and he doesn't know how to think about others. At this time, there is really no way to run around and make these things. Otherwise, husband, don't go, don't force it. ”

Lin Jue shook his head and said, "How can you not believe what you say, besides, it's still your brother." This time is really important to him, the palace needs to be revitalized, and this time is an opportunity. If the rebellion is defeated, the sin must be your brother, and that will not work. I might as well go and help him. ”

The little county lord said: "Will it be defeated?" ”

Lin Jue said softly: "It's hard to say, they all think that Qingjiao is a soft persimmon, and I'm worried that this kind of thinking will make them suffer a lot." The Qingjiao dared to make trouble, and naturally there was some reliance. Well, I won't talk about it. I'm going to follow the counterinsurgency again, what can we do at home? ”

The little county lord said: "There is nothing at home, as long as you are safe." Bing'er girl, you can take it with you, and you can also protect your safety. ”

Lin Jue said: "But what about Ying Tianfu?" I also thought about letting Bing'er go to Yingtianfu, and if I found the people of the Grand Theater, I would find a place to hide first, and after the big battle, it would depend on the situation. If the imperial court breaks through Ying Tianfu, then it will be fine. Anyway, let's hide first. ”

The little county lord said: "No, no, no, Bing'er has to follow you." Otherwise, I don't feel at ease. Why don't you let Sun Dayong go. I don't know if it will work out. ”

Lin Jue's eyes lit up and said, "Yes, ask Sun Dayong to go, he can completely protect himself." I'm going to explain it to him. Bing'er went with me to fight the bandits. Bing'er, you go back to your room to change your clothes and dress up as a man. There can be no women in the army, but don't show the stuffing. The warbler packed up a few clothes for us, and we took them with us. I have to go to the yamen to tell Yang Xiu. Oh, my uncle is a lot of harm. ”

Lin Jue smacked his lips and spoke, and his feet kept stopping, and he had already left the small hall and hurried to the front to find Sun Dayong. Several women also got up and went their separate ways. The little county lord sighed, called the maid to help him back to the room.

……

In the evening, on the colonel's field outside the Xincao Gate of Bianliang, the soldiers and horses of the 60,000 guards and infantry divisions were lined up. The forbidden army team has bright armor and a straight body. War horses and horses, swords and guns like a forest. The dragon flag is hunting and fluttering in the air, and it is really like a tiger and a horse, which is quite a sense of a mighty division and a majestic army.

The drums beat suddenly, and someone stood on the high platform in front of him and shouted: "The Holy Lord has arrived!" ”

Everyone's eyes followed this shout and brushed in the direction of the city gate. But listening to the sound of drums and the waving of flags, hundreds of cavalry members of the front division of the palace galloped out of the city gate, followed by honor guards and horses and gorgeous carts. A gorgeous canopy umbrella swayed in the sky above the team, and everyone knew that under that umbrella was the current emperor Guo Chong.

Surrounded by thousands of cavalry honor guards and more than 100 ministers, Guo Chong arrived in front of the queue by car. After that, with the support of the attendants, he climbed the stairs and climbed to the high platform. More than a dozen important ministers also followed Guo Chong to the high platform.

The drums stopped, and the four fields were silent. The setting sun shone on the huge school grounds, and all the soldiers stood in the sunlight, and only a golden light could be seen in their eyes.

"Salute!" Someone on the high platform shouted.

"Knock on the emperor, long live my emperor!" All the soldiers knelt and bowed down and shouted with a loud voice. The shout shook the heavens and the earth and resounded in the ear.

Guo Chong stood on the high platform, looking at the golden soldiers and horses under the sunset in front of him, listening to the earth-shattering shouts, and a smile appeared on his serious face.

"All the soldiers are flat." Guo Chong waved his hand and said.

After a cacophony of noise, the soldiers and horses of the Forbidden Army fell silent again. Yang Jun stepped forward and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the 60,000 troops of the Guards Infantry Division have been assembled, please review and exhort the emperor, and you can go out to fight at any time." ”

Guo Chong nodded and said, "Okay, hard work Yang Aiqing." ”

"This is the duty of a minister." Yang Jun arched his hand.

Turning around, he walked a few steps to the entrance of the platform, and said loudly to the soldiers and horses below: "Listen to the soldiers, today my Great Zhou Guards and Infantry Military Division swear here to quell the rebellion of the bandits, and the expedition is imminent, and the emperor personally came to see off the soldiers, which is a great honor." Now, please ask the emperor to admonish. ”

All the soldiers tried to look up at the stage, but all they saw was a golden sun. But Guo Chong's voice was clearly delivered to his ears with the evening breeze.

"Ladies and gentlemen of the Great Zhou. I am here today to do it for you. I have been a country for more than 150 years, and I have experienced ups and downs. I don't know how many barbarians are small countries, and the wolves also covet the territory of my Great Zhou and watch over my great rivers and mountains. However, it is precisely because I have you to guard and protect my Great Zhou that I defeated and annihilated them one by one, and my Great Zhou has had this peaceful and prosperous era for more than a hundred years. Today, a group of cult members are gathering in a chaotic attempt to destroy the peaceful world of our Great Zhou Dynasty. They deceived the people with their words, deceived the pure, deceived the people, and fell into disloyalty and injustice. I suspect that they are being instructed by others to try to get involved in my Great Zhou Dahao Society. You say, "Can I agree?" ”

"Can't!" All the soldiers replied loudly.

"Well said, absolutely not. My Great Zhou is an iron-clad country, and it is a country that will be passed on for thousands of years, how can these glamorous clowns be allowed to get involved, how can they be allowed to run rampant? Therefore, today I am here to practice for you. Please let me drink a glass of liquor with you, and after that, you will destroy this group of ghosts and ghosts for me, kill these demons and monsters, and return the Great Zhou to a prosperous world. Here, a toast! Guo Chong picked up the half bowl of wine handed over by the waiter and held it high in the sun.

All the Praetorian soldiers bent down and picked up a bowl of wine that lay on the ground next to their feet. One person holds up a lamp and ten thousand people are in harmony with each other, and they drink it all.
