Shen Leng looked at the emperor's back, the emperor said that there was one more thing to do, but there was no follow-up, Shen Leng didn't plan to ask, he guessed that it was probably related to the prince, if the prince really took advantage of His Majesty's time in Northern Xinjiang to do something rebellious, His Majesty would forgive him after he went back?

Maybe.

Shen Leng couldn't guess the answer, it was father and son.

"You don't want to know what I'm going to do?"

The emperor glanced back at Shen Leng.

Shen Leng didn't answer, and it was not easy to answer.

"If you don't ask, I won't say anything."

When the emperor saw Shen Leng's cautious appearance, he felt more and more indebted, this child was not raised by him, but he was working hard for him, when Shen Leng put on his dragon robe and rushed out of other ancient cities with more than 10,000 sailor soldiers, he couldn't help but want to shout out, come back, son...... But this sentence was endured after all.

The more cautious, cautious, and well-behaved Shen Leng was, the more the emperor felt indebted.

A child who is already more sensible than an adult at an age when he shouldn't be sensible will still be like when he was a child, and he will always consider things from the perspective of others when he grows up, because he always has to keep figuring out other people's minds when he is a child in order to get some good faces and a cold and hard steamed bun.

The Emperor breathed a sigh of relief, then shook his head, as if trying to shake all the thoughts out of his head.

But I can't get rid of it.

"You will go to see Xin Fengyue on behalf of me in three days."

The emperor said: "Don't get rid of Mr. Chu again, I asked Mr. Chu to follow you before, but when you went out of the city, you lied to him and asked him to go to me, and then you tied up your pro-military camp general Chen Ran...... If you get rid of Mr. Chu again in three days, I will tie you up. ”

Shen sneered, still not knowing what to say.

He wouldn't have been so clumsy before, just because when he looked at the emperor just now, he suddenly felt that the emperor's eyes were wrong, it was a kind of ...... A look that he was very familiar with, just like the way Mr. Shen looked at him when he was injured in the first battle and went home, and it was because of that look that Shen Leng realized what it was like to have a father.

Everything he saw in the emperor's eyes just now made Shen Leng panic and made Shen Leng afraid.

If it were another young man, he might be flattered to see His Majesty's eyes like this, but Shen Leng could only be frightened and afraid.

The emperor, not Mr. Shen.

Shen Leng, who used to be able to make a few jokes in front of the emperor easily, became silent, and even he didn't notice it, at this moment he became the same as a child again, just like the person standing in front of him was not the emperor but Boss Meng, a look made him afraid, of course, the emperor could not be Boss Meng, one was close and the other was afraid.

How could Shen Leng not be afraid?

Boss Meng has always been a cold nightmare.

The emperor saw the panic in Shen Leng's eyes, so he blamed himself more, he blamed himself more, so his eyes were more concerned and revealed his self-blame, and this kind of look made Shen Leng even more uncomfortable.

"Talk about military affairs."

The emperor made an excuse.

Shen Leng immediately lowered his head: "Yes." ”

The emperor continued to take deep breaths to stabilize his emotions, in fact, what he was thinking about just now was not how to face his son after going back, the crown prince Li Changze did nothing The emperor didn't care anymore, it was a son who disappointed him, a son he had given up.

He was thinking about things related to Shen Leng, he hoped that Shen Leng would be like a child who had learned to be coquettish with his father and wanted to be rewarded from his father, but Shen Leng couldn't learn it, even if he was now a convincing hero of the three armies, a general who was about to be promoted to the second rank, and an out-and-out big man in the eyes of the people, but Shen Leng was still a little humble in his bones.

The emperor asked himself, how can my son be humble in his bones?

So he was a little annoyed.

But this annoyance has nowhere to be released, the queen is dead, and Mu Zhaotong is also dead.

The emperor took a deep breath and found that it was to no avail.

"I ...... I plan to take the other ancient city from the heart of Fengyue, take the other ancient city as the line, and return to Daning from the other ancient city to the south, if the black warriors agree, then they can collect troops and return to the court, who do you think is the most suitable to stay in the other ancient city to garrison? ”

"Minister...... Don't dare to say anything. ”

"Say!"

"The minister thinks that the general Wu Xinyu should return to Yeluyuan as soon as possible, deter the tribes that have not yet surrendered, and move troops against the Montenegrin Khanate, so the cavalry on the grassland and the heavy cavalry of the northern frontier army should go back, even if the Montenegrin Khanate does not fight, he must be subdued, so the suitable candidate to stay in the northern Xinjiang should be chosen from the three generals Tang Cheng, Tang Chong, and Dongye Dang."

The emperor pondered for a moment: "Dongye Dang's light cavalry still has to cooperate with Wu Xinyu to conquer the Black Mountain Khanate, then let Tang Cheng and Tang Chong stay in other ancient cities, Tang Cheng's hook and sickle army, Tang Chong's spearmen, the most aimed at the black Wu light cavalry, it is good to leave these two people." ”

The emperor said as he walked: "Now there is still a lone army sandwiched in the middle, that is, the team of the Black Martial Yuan Auxiliary Machine, the Wild Deer Plain was broken, the other ancient city was broken, and the tens of thousands of Black Martial Arts elites of the Yuan Auxiliary Machine were stuck there...... When I plan to let Meng Changan lead the army back to Eastern Xinjiang, I will fight by the way, or...... I simply gave this great gift to the Kuo Ke Qinse. ”

Shen Leng lowered his head: "The minister thinks it is feasible." ”

The emperor snorted: "The swords and soldiers of the Eastern Frontier need to be appeased, and the righteous sons of Pei Tingshan ......"

As soon as he said this, the commander of the Ouchi guards came in quickly from the outside, and his face was a little anxious: "Your Majesty, several generals among the sword soldiers stopped Meng Changan and wanted to challenge him one-on-one." ”

The emperor frowned: "I know that a few of Pei Tingshan's righteous sons will not easily convince Meng Chang'an. ”

He looked at Shen Leng: "What do you think of it?" ”

Shen Leng said: "The minister thinks that when you trust Meng Changan, you should also trust the general." ”

The general he said was naturally Pei Tingshan.

The emperor, who was already about to go out, stopped and nodded: "You are right, you should believe in Pei Tingshan, you should believe in Meng Changan." ”

He went back to the chair and sat down: "Wei Lan, I'm hungry again, you let someone go and prepare some food." ”

Shen Leng said: "Go ahead." ”

The emperor thought for a moment and nodded: "It's okay, you can go, simply pack up some and come over, you stay and eat with me." ”

Shen Leng had long wanted to escape from this big tent, so he hurriedly bowed and then withdrew, after coming out of the big tent, he let out a long breath, just now in it he once doubted that His Majesty would say something terrible, that kind of pressure was too great, much greater than the pressure he faced in the face of the thousands of black warriors.

After going out, I suddenly felt that the sky was high and cloudy.

Shen Leng was not worried about how difficult the people on the side of the sword soldiers in the eastern Xinjiang would be for Pei Tingshan, he used to think that Pei Tingshan was a stubborn and unreasonable old martial artist, but it was not until not long ago that he really understood Pei Tingshan as a person, and only then did he realize the feelings of the sword soldiers for Pei Tingshan.

The emperor's will to let Meng Changan go to rebuild the sword soldiers has been passed down, Pei Tingshan has just passed away, and His Majesty's order seems to be a little impersonal, but at this time, there must be someone to stabilize the mood of the sword soldiers, otherwise this team may collapse.

It is precisely because the emperor cares too much about Pei Tingshan that he cares too much about the sword soldiers.

Shen Leng is very sure, if Meng Changan can't even solve this matter, is he still worthy of being called Meng Changan?

Knife Soldier Camp.

Meng Changan, who had just been ordered to take over the sword soldiers, was stopped by several righteous sons of Pei Tingshan before he could enter the door, led by Xue Burang, as well as Yang Yuan, Guo Wuving, Song Hancheng and a few people, Pei Tingshan led the army north to meet Xin Fengyue to buy time for His Majesty, not a single righteous son was brought, forcing them to take the cavalry to join Meng Changan to protect His Majesty to break through, he wanted His Majesty to see a few of his righteous sons, that was a kind of trust, he was telling His Majesty that the old minister went, and the children would be handed over to His Majesty.

At this moment, when they saw Meng Changan, their eyes were all blood-red.

"Meng Chang'an!"

Xue Burang strode in front of Meng Changan: "You come to lead the sword soldiers, I'm not convinced, even if there is a holy decree, I am still not convinced." ”

Meng Changan looked at him calmly: "What do you want to do?" ”

Xue Burang said with red eyes: "Your father-in-law just died, and the corpse is still in the hands of the Black Warriors, so you will come to snatch military power, you are sorry for your father, and you are sorry for the sword soldiers." ”

Meng Changan still spoke in a flat tone, but the weight in his words was as heavy as Mount Tai.

"If the black warriors don't return the general's body after three days, I will be the first to rush into other ancient cities."

Xue Burang nodded: "I remember this sentence." ”

Meng Changan asked: "What else?" ”

Xue Burang said loudly: "I've come to fight!" ”

Meng Changan nodded: "Okay." ”

Xue didn't let him go first, didn't wear protective gear, didn't use a wooden knife and a wooden sword, but a real knife.

Xue did not let it be defeated.

"I'm coming!"

Yang Yuan raised his knife forward.

Yang Yuan was defeated.

Guo Wuving, Song Hancheng and others challenged successively, did not attack in groups, and fought one-on-one, all of them were defeated.

Meng Changan successively defeated all the righteous sons of Pei Tingshan, and after being silent for a while, he said: "A few years ago, the general still wanted to kill me, you should all know it, so it is normal for me to come to the sword soldier and you feel awkward, if you think that Meng Changan is a real soldier, forget those things, I only treat military affairs and not people...... If you think that I can't lead the troops with me in you, then I won't leave, I will force you to leave, I want to rebuild a sword soldier who is still invincible in the world, that is worthy of the general, whoever stops me, I will not leave anyone, the general is gone, the sword soldier is still there. ”

Meng Changan paused, his eyes swept over those generals: "There is one more thing, I will not set up the Mengzi flag, and I will not remove the Peizi flag." ”

Everyone looked at Meng Changan, and their faces changed a little.

"In the future, the flag bearer will follow me, and if you see that I am not in front, the sword soldiers can kill me."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help it, and tears kept flowing.

That's a phrase that the general has practiced all his life...... If you see that I am not before you, you can kill me with all the swords.

Xue didn't let it, Yang Yuan and the others turned to look at the north at the same time, and knelt down at the same time.

"Father-in-law!"

"We listen to you, if you don't accept it, you will fight, my father-in-law said, it must be Meng Chang'an who will take over the sword soldiers, and now he is here, my father-in-law also said, Meng Chang'an is here, if you are not convinced, go to him to fight, everything is on the bright side, don't secretly go against Meng Chang'an, then I'm sorry for the title of the sword soldier, if you go to fight, you can't beat it, then be Meng Changan's soldier honestly, don't lose the face of the sword soldier, don't lose your momentum."

Xue Bu let his head fall to the ground.

"Father-in-law, we lost, and in the future, we will call Meng Changan the general, father-in-law ......"

Xue Burang looked up at the north, his face full of tears.

"The teachings of the father-in-law, we dare not forget, from now on, we will obey Meng Chang'an's military orders, but in the hearts of the children, the father-in-law is always the general of the sword soldiers!"

Several people kept prostrating.

Meng Changan was silent, then knelt down on one knee, facing the same north.

"The younger generation Meng Chang'an, the temporary general rebuilt the sword soldiers, if I have the title of sword soldier and the prestige of the general, I will die without a place to be buried."

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

The emperor looked at a few side dishes on the table, then at Shen Leng, who was finally calmer, and smiled: "I said before that there was one more thing to do, and I asked if you wanted to know, but you didn't dare to ask me what it was. ”

Shen Leng hurriedly lowered his head: "The minister didn't dare to ask." ”

"Then I'll ask you."

The emperor walked up to Shen Leng and asked word by word: "Do you know who is the youngest prince since the founding of Daning?" ”

Shen Leng thought about it carefully and was about to answer.

The emperor pointed at him, "It's you." ”
