Ma Bin put the confession in his arms, arched his hand to Sun Wanchun, and said, "General Sun, Ma took the liberty to come here today, and he was very disturbing. Originally, I thought that General Sun and the brothers of the Northwest Army would be able to join hands with us to jointly maintain the Great Zhou Jiangshan Sheji, but I didn't expect you to have a plan. When I came, Marshal Lin instructed him, and he said that everyone has their own ambitions and cannot be forced. The Northwest Army has contributed to the stability of the northwest of the Great Zhou Dynasty for so many years, and Lord Yuan and more than 100,000 soldiers have also sacrificed their lives for the country, which is beyond repellent of blame. Marshal Lin of my family said that whether you are willing to continue to work hard to recover the mountains and rivers, drive out the foreign enemy, and eliminate the internal thieves, you should not be blamed. I should all respect your choice. Of course, Marshal Lin hopes that when the national crisis is at hand, he can unite all the forces that can be united to fight to the death against internal thieves and external enemies, and protect me in a comprehensive way, but he also does not want to force others. However, time is pressing, Marshal Lin has set a plan to fight with the Jurchens, although I have not been able to convince you to participate, but the battle will still be carried out, and our Luoyan army will never retreat half a point. Even if we fight to the last man, we will never give up, and we will never be afraid. How can I teach the barbarians to laugh at me that there are no warriors in the Great Zhou? How can you let the young people steal my great Zhou? This is what Marshal Lin said when he left the school, and we all remember it. At this point, Ma took his leave. ”

After Ma Bin finished speaking, he turned around and strode towards the lobby. The generals in the northwest all looked at his back in a daze, not knowing what to say. Sun Wanchun frowned and bit his lower lip silently, and when he saw Ma Bin's figure stepping out of the lobby and walking down the stone steps, Sun Wanchun finally shouted: "General Ma, please stay!" ”

Ma Bin stopped his body and slowly turned around and said, "What? Are you going to kill me because of the offensive words I have spoken before? Forgive me for not being captured, I still have to complete Marshal Lin's plan to defend against the enemy, and I can't die here. You want to kill me, I have to resist. ”

After saying that, Ma Bin slowly pulled out the long knife at his waist and stood on his feet.

Sun Wanchun hurriedly said: "Deputy Marshal Ma, I didn't mean that. I mean...... Can Deputy Marshal Ma stay to discuss, I still have some questions that have not been clarified, and I want to ask for clarification. ”

Ma Bin walked back slowly, and said with a smile: "May I ask." ”

Sun Wanchun frowned and said, "I want to ask Deputy Marshal Ma, since your Luoyan Army has rescued the emperor, why...... Why did you kill the emperor? Isn't it a great rebellion for you to do so, and to confirm the name of the rebels? By doing so, you will know how many people in the world have a different opinion of you. At least in my opinion, your Luoyan army took advantage of the chaos to make trouble and seized the Great Zhou Dynasty. Marshal Lin is such a shrewd person, why did he make such a decision? ”

Ma Bin laughed and said, "What should I be confused about, it turns out that you are still entangled in this matter." It's no wonder that this matter is naturally very inappropriate in the eyes of outsiders, I know that this matter has also been publicized by the old thief Lu Zhongtian, and it has been smeared by our Luoyan Army. But for us, we don't care at all. ”

Sun Wanchun frowned and said, "How can you not care?" This is a trip to kill the king, a great rebellion. ”

Ma Bin said with a smile: "People in the world always like to judge right and wrong by their own standards, but they use different standards. Isn't Guo Xu's act of killing his brother and father and usurping the throne a great rebellion? Why didn't you accuse him? ”

Sun Wanchun smacked his lips and said, "That's different, that's different." After all, the emperor is the emperor, and that is an internal matter of the imperial family. ”

Ma Bin nodded and said: "Well said, you also know that it is an internal matter of the imperial family, if you can forgive Guo Xu, you can forgive the new emperor for killing Guo Xu." That's an internal affair of the royal family, isn't it? Taking a step back, my Luoyan Army has long set up a clear banner, only against the imperial court and not against the Great Zhou, we were originally against Guo Xu and raised the flag, and now killing Guo Xu is the goal of raising the flag at the beginning, is there anything wrong with this? Besides, what has Guo Xu done in the past few years? Da Zhou's situation today has a lot to do with him. Internally, he favored Lu Zhongtian and allowed him to control the dynasty and cut off dissidents. Killed the pillars of the imperial court and damaged the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Don't forget how Yang Jun died, there are rumors that Yang Shu's envoy was stoned to death by Guo Xu with an incense burner in the court, this kind of behavior is perverse and tyrannical, and he is one of the culprits of my Great Zhou's situation today. Externally, he provoked the battle of the Northern Expedition, regardless of the opposition from top to bottom, and raised the strength of the whole country to the Northern Expedition. After suffering defeat, he was cowardly and cowardly, and in order to protect the throne, he did not hesitate to sign a peace agreement that humiliated the country, compensated a large amount of gold and silver property, expropriated violently, and looted the people's fat to please the Liao people. And he surrendered his identity and recognized the Liao throne as his uncle, which caused me to suffer great humiliation in the Great Zhou. Such a person, is he still worthy of being the emperor of the Great Zhou? Marshal Lin of my family said: Guo Xuzhi is a talented and sparse man, and he is a dumb king, who not only brings disaster to the country but also to the people. Cruelty to the loyal and good, pampering the traitor, good and bad, unkind and unjust. Everyone in the world can be punished. General Sun, Guo Xu fell into the hands of my Luoyan army, and he had only one way to die. The new emperor killed him with his own hands, on the one hand, to avenge the killing of the former emperor by Guo Xu's usurpation, and on the other hand, it was also used to take responsibility. The new emperor refused to let Marshal Lin and anyone in my Luoyan army fall into the notoriety of killing the emperor, so he took matters into his own hands. This is the act of daring to take responsibility, which is admirable. ”

Sun Wanchun was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Isn't it also to seize the throne?" After killing the emperor, Guo Kun ascended the throne, why bother to say it so high-sounding. ”

Ma Bin laughed and said: "Our Luoyan Army was originally going to seize the throne of the Great Zhou, and Marshal Lin had already said that he would promote the new emperor to the throne, which was a high-sounding thing. In today's Great Zhou, if the new emperor does not ascend the throne to clean up the situation, will he let the world have no owner? Apart from the new emperor, who is qualified to be the emperor? Lu Zhongtian? Or let the barbarians be the lord of my Great Zhou? General Sun, let me tell you the truth, this time, whether your Northwest Army is willing to submit to the new dynasty or not, and whether you are willing to join our Luoyan Army in the battle, we will complete the important task of driving out the thieves from the enemy and the country. You may not believe it, even without your help, my Luoyan army can defeat the Jurchens. What about the Jurchens and Lu Zhongtian joining forces? It's still not my opponent of the Wild Goose Army. The news of the emperor's ascension to the throne has been announced to the world, and there are countless state capitals that have pledged their allegiance. People of insight in the world know that if they do not pledge allegiance to the new dynasty and work together, they will become slaves of the country. Soon, reinforcements from all the state capitals will arrive, and soon the Jurchens and Lu Zhongtian will be finished, and we will fight back to Bianliang and restore the life of our Great Zhou Qingping. What will your Northwest Army be when the time comes? Is it impossible to divide the northwest and become a traitor to the new dynasty? Marshal Lin ordered me to come and persuade me, in fact, it is also an excellent opportunity for you. Only by being loyal to the new dynasty and joining the ranks of my Luoyan army can you avenge Lord Yuan and the fallen Northwest soldiers, and at the same time have the merit of protecting the country from the dragon. Don't you understand this simple truth? ”

Sun Wanchun and the generals of the Northwest Army were silent, although Ma Bin's words were a little ugly, but what he said was still reasonable. and then entangle the identity of the rebel before the Luoyan Army, and then entangle Guo Xu by Guo Kun

The killing is meaningless. Lu Zhongtian and the Jurchens were both enemies of the Northwest Army, and with the strength of the Northwest Army alone, there would never be any hope of revenge. Even if returning to the northwest at this moment can ensure temporary peace, in the future, whether it is the victory of the Luoyan Army or the victory of Lu Zhongtian and the Jurchens, the Northwest Army may not have a place to live. If you don't make a choice at this point, you won't have a choice afterward.

"General Sun, generals. I know your situation. Marshal Lin said, this time you only need to send 30,000 elite soldiers to assist in the battle. The rest of the infantry and soldiers can temporarily return to Xingqing Mansion to stabilize the situation in Western Xia and protect your family and relatives. Don't worry about the problem of food and grass materials, we have a large amount of food and grass materials to supply you. There is only one thing you need to do, be loyal to the new dynasty, join the Falling Goose Army, and follow orders. Marshal Lin also said that he would not transfer any generals and soldiers from your Northwest Army, and the Northwest Army camp would be lined up separately under the Luoyan Army, and it would still be commanded by your original team. From now on you will be part of the Praetorian Army. These are all things that Marshal Lin has considered for you. Marshal Lin can be said to have done his best to you. Ma Bin said in a deep voice.

Sun Wanchun let out a long sigh, he admired Marshal Lin's consideration Zhou Xiang, it was true that he had a lot of concerns and constraints, but now these do not exist. There was no longer any reason for him not to join the Luoyan Army, to be disloyal to the new dynasty, and not to fight for the fallen officers and men of the Northwest Army.

"Brothers, this matter ...... What do you guys say? Sun Wanchun asked in a deep voice.

The generals were silent for a while, and soon someone said in a deep voice: "General Sun, the last general thinks that we should listen to the persuasion and join the battle under Marshal Lin's account." Either way, there's no reason to back down. ”

"What I mean is that we are holding back at this moment, and we are afraid that we will not be able to raise our heads for the rest of our lives. I can't get over it in my heart. ”

"General Sun, I don't understand these truths, I just follow you. What you say, let's do. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, everything that listens to General Sun, our brothers in the Northwest Army will advance and retreat together. If you want to fight, even if you die in battle, don't regret and complain, and if you want to leave, we won't complain if we are scolded and shrunk turtles in the future. ”

The generals shouted one after another, in fact, they were all holding their breath in their hearts, the Northwest Army came violently, and as a result, they were blocked in Taiyuan Mansion for more than a month, and after arriving in the capital, they were beaten to death with a stick on the head. Shrinking in Taiyuan Mansion, I don't dare to take revenge, I don't want to be obedient, and I don't know what to do. Today, after learning the fact that Lord Yuan was calculated by Lu Zhongtian, he felt even more depressed. The original opinion of the Luoyan Army and the new emperor were almost relieved by Ma Bin's words. Worries are taken into account by others, so what else is there to worry about. Attitudes have changed.

Sun Wanchun listened to everyone's chaotic words, nodded slowly, and said, "Since this is the case, Sun Mou has made a decision." My decision was...... Returned to the new dynasty, joined the Luoyan Army, fought for the Great Zhou Dynasty, the people of the dawn of the world, and avenged the dead soldiers of the Northwest Army by Lord Yuan. Even if it is a horse leather shroud, don't complain, this is the way we must go. ”

The generals shouted in unison, "Yes." ”

Ma Bin laughed and said, "Okay, this is the Northwest Army in my mind." From Privy Envoy Yang to Lord Yuan and even everyone in front of him now, the Northwest Army's bloody nature has not changed, and the courage is still there, and what is even more rare is that they know the overall situation, know the current affairs, and admire and admire! ”
