Shi Yanchao was still in the yamen in front of the palace, he was the tallest and the most eye-catching when he appeared, but no one paid attention to him at this time. But fortunately, he didn't do anything and was promoted to a higher level, from the front of the palace to the deputy commander of the palace.

"What do you mean today?" A subordinate general sitting next to him muttered, "In this way, I will be given a defense envoy, can I cash in?" ”

When Shi Yanchao looked at the military general who spoke, he suddenly looked disdainful: "Everyone has done everything, and you still haven't understood what happened?" The Zhao family had two lives in one family last year, and they were inseparable from Brother Shao'er, and you should have heard of the grievances of these two families. Now that the official family is unconscious, Brother Shao'er is 'called to rebel', and of course it is Zhao Kuangyin who is begging! ”

When the subordinate general heard this, he seemed to understand, and said: "Mutiny infighting!" ”

Shi Yanchao said: "As long as Empress Chaoli and the Privy Council support Shao Ge'er, it is not a mutiny, it is a call to act." ”

The general asked, "Then what are we going to do now?" ”

"Didn't the military order say that as long as the soldiers don't move, they will be promoted and make a fortune, how do you still want to carry your head and toss around?" Shi Yan snorted coldly.

According to the new promotion, in terms of military rank, Guo Shao's deputy commander of the guard department is slightly higher than Shi Yanchao, but Shi Yanchao ignored it, and still called Brother Shao a mouthful, without any respect. Despite this, Shi Yanchao really hopes that Guo Shao will win.

Shi Yanchao's relationship with the generals was already poor, and he was even more eyebrow-raising with the civil officials, he didn't like anyone, but Guo Shao was a little pleasing to the eye. Although he usually doesn't have much contact, Shi Yanchao never mentions the so-called life-saving grace in the Battle of Jinyang in Hedong...... But he still knew in his heart, after the special incident passed, he understood that he couldn't help but appreciate it, that Brother Shao'er fought for his life to save him; After saving it, it's not like Xiang Xun "putting on a shelf". That incident made Shi Yanchao always remember it in his heart.

and Guo Shao's reputation as a woman in the army before, Shi Yanchao also scoffed at this, but he could despise Guo Shao, but he was not hostile to such a life. People who make people feel that they have a heart of righteousness are always less dangerous.

Later, in the battle of Zhuozhou in the Northern Expedition, Guo Shao ate the men and horses of the Liao army, and had to ask Shi Yanchao to take a few looks. During the decisive battle between the Northern Expedition and the Khitan lord Yeluming, Shi Yanchao was ordered to fight the forward and suffered hardships, although he charged into battle regardless of his orders, he still achieved little success and suffered heavy casualties, and the Liao army's combat effectiveness was very fierce...... He still didn't please the Liao army in Xinkou before, and almost lost his life.

Shi Yanchao is not afraid of anyone, and he is really a bit elite of Shuliao riding. But Guo Shao can use infantry to fight Liao cavalry, which makes Shi Yanchao secretly admire it.

Thinking of this, he patted the case, and raised his head to a few people around him: "I have long known that Zhao Kuangyin is not Shao Ge'er's opponent. Brother Shao is a wise general, and if he is deployed in the city, he can destroy the Liao army and ten thousand cavalry in one day, and no matter how powerful the iron cavalry is, it is nothing more than that. ”

Several generals chimed in.

Shi Yanchao snorted and said without hesitation: "Now you can be promoted and make a fortune without moving, and it will save trouble." But if I have to choose if there is infighting, I will definitely choose Brother Shao! Prepare and deploy well for war, and don't always be under siege; It is much better to lead the cavalry to destroy the withering posture than to be surrounded and beaten...... But Lao Tzu's luck is not good, every time he is surrounded and beaten! ”

……

Wei Renpu went to deliver money and military orders, returned to the Privy Council, and saw Wang Pu, who was still busy writing and writing. Wei Renpu stepped forward and glanced at the things on the paper with casual eyes, and said, "I was ordered to transfer the Tiger Jie Army's Gao Huaide Division, and it went smoothly. ”

Wang Pu just nodded, ignoring even etiquette, maybe the two were too familiar. He was busy writing what he was holding, picked it up and blew it twice, then put it down and pressed it to dry.

At this time, Wang Pucai stood up, shook his fists, and said, "We still have to be busy, there is an accident in Tokyo, and the other towns haven't been able to take care of it for a while." But the overall situation has been decided, and you and I can breathe a sigh of relief. ”

Wei Renpu looked up at the sun outside the window and said, "It's not noon yet." It's a big deal, but it's not long. ”

Wang Pu sneered: "Just be fast, if it's too slow, if there is a stalemate, there will be a large-scale civil war in Tokyo City, and the capital will not be smashed?" After the loss of elite soldiers, they will fall into a situation of internal and external troubles. Shu lost Qin and Feng, and the Southern Tang lost Huainan, these big countries were obedient and obedient on the surface, but they were afraid of us, once they saw that the Central Plains was declining and couldn't stop pressing, it was obvious to jump out again. There are also various foreign towns that have been weak in the Zhou Dynasty, but there are still some that are quite powerful; Once the power of the center is gone, it is difficult to make them obey their orders! ”

Wang Pu also rose too fast, Xiande was still a petty official who wrote articles in the early years, and now he is a very popular minister in the civil service. Wei Renpu is the minister appointed by Taizu to take care of his life, and his status is lower than Wang Pu at this time, he is still a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he does feel that Wang Pu is still very talented, and immediately said: "The king makes the king far-sighted, which makes me admire." ”

has strategy, talent, and thoughtfulness, but Wang Pu, a person who has too many thoughts, is actually a bit cautious. At that moment, Wei Renpu didn't know how he misunderstood the words, but he heard Wang Pu snort coldly: "It's just bold enough." ”

What do you mean by that? Wei Renpu said in his heart: Don't you think that I said that he was far-sighted and mentioned the temporary garrison map?

Wang Pu said again: "Naturally, it's not just a matter of courage, Deputy Envoy Wei is now looking back at Guo Shao's deployment." Once such a person has the courage and reputation given by the queen's decree, he can't say that he won't win.

Before this morning, there was no wind at all; To be airtight, there must be only a few people who have planned it.

Before the army arrived in the imperial city, it was also sudden and without any signs; This will mean that 10,000 troops will be mobilized at once this morning. From convening the generals and persuading the generals to reach an agreement, to mobilizing the whole army and driving directly to the imperial city...... There are a lot of intermediate processes, and you have to be quick to start suddenly like this without any signs! How did he do it?

The six armies on the left flank of the Hujie Army are stationed in six places, and first of all, they must gather the commanders and envoys of the above many generals before they can mobilize the soldiers. This step alone is not easy, so many scattered generals, how can he call together all of a sudden without any evidence? I heard before that Guo Shao specially got a herald, I didn't pay attention to such trivial things, and I really had to think about it when I was free.

After that, gather a large army, quickly capture Xihua Gate, control and block the road to the south in the east of the city in the core area of the Iron Cavalry Army, every step is precise and fast, and there must be a complete set of strict combat deployment! Hey, Guo Shao's bold use of troops in Tokyo this time is really an eye-opener for the old man. ”

Wang Pu has never praised people so unsparingly. Wei Renpu knew that this old boy was very angry...... Because Wang Pu has neither a too high background nor a meritorious reputation in the imperial examination, he is often criticized for not having enough qualifications to be a minister; This only aroused Wang Pu's greater self-esteem. In his eyes, he is a person who relies on real skills to ascend to the top, more powerful than those who rely on his background and fame, and in his eyes, he is simply the most talented person in the world!

Such a person praises a military general, and Wei Renpu thinks it is very rare.

Wang Pu sighed again: "There are many talents in the world, it is rare!" The deployment was bold and careful, and every step was meticulously crafted. Guo Shao is using the mind of painting a fine brush painting and carving a glamorous word to use soldiers, this is talent, skill and art! He glanced at Wei Renpu, "It's just a pity, a pity!" ”

Wei Renpu hurriedly asked, "Why do you say this?" ”

Wang Pudao: "Poetry and songs, famous Danqing, can be passed down in the world for people to observe, this kind of military skills, fleeting, no trace, how much can people in the world understand?" Only Deputy Envoy Wei and the old man can understand it. ”

"The subtle techniques are not for too many people to understand." Wei Renpu agreed, he thought about it and said, "Guo Shao really admires the master and is good at learning ......it."

Wei Renpu remembered that when he was in Yangzhou, Huainan, Guo Shao was full of praise for his appearance and demeanor, and said that he would treat him as a teacher...... It was inconvenient for him to mention that matter in front of Wang Pu, otherwise wouldn't he be boasting to the extent of shamelessness?

At the moment, he only said: "He has a keen and meticulous mind, is very talented, and knows how to appreciate things he doesn't understand, especially appreciating subtle things." Such a person turned out to be a martial artist, ha! ”

"The old man also thinks it's strange, Guo Shao's background is too humble, he has no knowledge, and he is not very old." Wang Pu said thoughtfully, "But there are always some such people in the world, such as the prodigy who can write poetry at a few years old. ”

The two sighed, and Wei Renpu asked again: "What will Zhao Kuangyin do now?" ”

Wang Pu said bluntly: "Run." ”

Wei Renpu listened and groaned: "You can only set up an ambush on the road." Now for the sake of the overall situation, we don't dare to act rashly against the troops in front of the palace. ”

Wang Pu nodded and said, "Exactly, something big has just happened, and the time is too short." For the sake of safety and to reduce the elite losses of the forbidden army, it is inconvenient to go to the Iron Cavalry barracks to arrest people; The armies did not yet understand the situation, and the people were panicked, so they were wary of resisting in groups. ”

Wei Renpu said: "If Zhao Kuangyin doesn't seize the opportunity now, when more people from the Hujie Army gather to form a greater advantage, and the deployment of the Privy Council to the front of the palace is formed, Zhao Kuangyin can't run if he wants to...... Wang Yuanjun thinks, should we find an opportunity to remind Guo Shao? Young and vigorous people are usually not deep in the city, and they are easy to be arrogant and arrogant when they succeed, so don't make a stupid move at this juncture. ”

Wang Pu muttered: "When the army first entered the imperial city, the queen summoned the ministers. Guo Shao was very humble outside the Jinxiang Palace, and he was not arrogant because he controlled the imperial city by force. The old man doesn't look like an arrogant person when he succeeds...... But it doesn't hurt to be reminded. It just so happened that the old man had something to see him, so he left the matter to the old man. ”
