Since the Song Dynasty released the military power from Taizu's cup of wine, it deliberately emphasized literature and suppressed military power, resulting in a serious fault line among military generals. The old generation of generals died of old age, and no one could use it. Only Li Jilong, a middle-aged good general, can be of great use, but he has been stained by a suspected coup. Yang Yanzhao and a number of other good generals at the border pass also have good ones, but they can't leave the border pass.

After Ling Kun returned, he recommended two generals in a row, which surprised Zhao Heng and Zhao Mingyue and others, and asked at the same time, "Who else do you want to recommend?" ”

"Huh." Ling Kun bared his teeth and smiled, "It's Mingyue." ”

"What?" Zhao Heng was shocked: "How can this be, Mingyue is a girl after all, do you still want to go on the expedition in your name?" ”

"Your Majesty, the enemy is current, he still cares what a man or a woman, the one who can fight is the general, Mingyue's performance on the Youyun battlefield is very outstanding, and the soldiers are very supportive, I believe that with Mingyue's ability, it is not a problem to fight Li Jiqian."

"Your Majesty, this proposal is in favor of Weichen." Kou Zhun has always been convinced by Zhao Mingyue, and hurriedly said: "According to the reaction of the border guards, the princess leads the troops well, fights bravely, and has excellent strategies, which is far better than General Ling. ”

"I still don't think it's appropriate." Zhao Heng said: "The battlefield is so dangerous, Mingyue is a girl, what if there is a mistake?" ”

"That's what I'm worried about." Ling Kun said: "There is absolutely no problem for Mingyue to lead troops to fight, what I am worried about is her self (shēn) safety, so I plan to let Allure follow Mingyue (shēn) to protect her." ”

Of course, Zhao Heng already knew who Allure was, and seemed to be a little relieved, looked at Zhao Mingyue and said, "Mingyue, what do you think?" ”

Zhao Mingyue was slightly excited, but she didn't know the bottom of her heart, she turned her head to look at Ling Kun and said, "Is this okay?" ”

Ling Kun nodded firmly and said, "No problem, with Allure, you are safe, as long as you are safe, everything else is not a problem." ”

Zhao Mingyue nodded and said, "Brother Huang, I'm willing to try." ”

"Mingyue can go, I am naturally a hundred rest assured, but the general is there, where do the soldiers come from? Do you count on the 20,000 remnants of the northwest? ”

"No, since Li Jilong went to Jianmen Pass, there is no need to leave 350,000 troops at Jianmen Pass, and it shouldn't be a problem to divide 50,000 out."

Zhao Heng nodded again and again: "This is okay."

, Uncle guards the pass, and it is completely possible to win more with less. ”

Ling Kun continued: "In addition, the emperor should appoint Yang Yanzhao as the commander-in-chief of the imperial Liao on the northern front, and he can mobilize and control the generals of all the relevant ports in the north, so as to ensure that the order line (jìn) is stopped and the military order is unimpeded. ”

Zhao Heng nodded and agreed: "This is no problem, I gave him the sword of Shang Fang, and he has full authority to preside over the defense of the northern front." It's just Ling (ài) Qing, what are you going to do? ”

"Of course I'm going to the East."

Zhao Heng nodded and said, "It's really time for the East China Sea to clean up, but where are the soldiers of the East China Sea going to be transferred from?" ”

"Don't be a soldier in the East China Sea, I'll go and see it alone." Ling Kun said.

"How can this be?" Zhao Mingyue was anxious first: "Dongying pirates are so rampant, can you stop them single-handedly?" I don't agree with you going on an adventure. ”

"Yes, this is not appropriate, let's find a way to transfer troops." Kou Zhun also said.

Ling Kun smiled slightly and said, "The Dongying pirates are not an army, they have a scattered structure, different actions, and many strongholds, even if we transfer troops to the East China Sea, what can we do?" There are hundreds of islands in Dongying, do you know where the pirates are? ”

"Then what can you do if you go alone?" Zhao Mingyue said.

"I don't know, let's be improvisable after I go, no matter how cunning the poisonous snake is, it has seven inches."

Zhao Mingyue shook her head again and again and said, "No, it's too dangerous for you to be alone, I don't agree." ”

Ling Kun smiled: "Mingyue, don't you know me yet? My ability to escape for my life is invincible in the world. ”

"But ......."

"Don't worry, I know it." Ling Kun waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, if you think it's feasible, let's do it." ”

Zhao Heng groaned: "In this way, the Jianmen Pass can be preserved for the time being, and Western Xia should not be a problem, the Liao Kingdom has not moved yet, the only problem is still in the east, can you do it alone?" ”

"Your Majesty, Wechen is willing to make a military order to solve the problem in the East China Sea in three months."

Zhao Heng waved his hand again and again: "No need, you go and see the situation (qíng), there is no need to take risks, things (qíng) are not easy to do, just come back immediately and find another way." ”

Zhao Mingyue nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, that's it." ”

Ling Kun nodded, this matter was settled.

"In that case, then Kou (ài) Qing will go

Let's draft the purpose, seal Li Jilong as the commander of the defense of Jianmen Pass, replace Wang Yingjue, and transfer Wang Yingjue back to the capital as the commander of the guard horse army. In addition, after the holy decree was drafted, it was handed over to Ling Kun and asked him to go to Li Jilong and give a specific explanation of the defense affairs. and Mingyue and Yang Yanzhao's holy decrees must also be passed on as soon as possible. ”

The people received the order of thanksgiving and took their leave.

Out of the palace gate, Zhao Mingyue pinched Ling Kun's waist and said, "What can you do?" There are countless pirates in Dongying, tens of thousands of miles on the east coast, can you fight or defend it if you go alone? ”

Ling Kun gently stroked Zhao Mingyue's little hand that was "committing murder" and said, "It's okay, I'm going to see the situation, if there is a way, I can do it, and if I can't do it, I can escape." ”

"Then why did you make a military order?"

"Didn't the emperor agree?"

"That's not okay, I don't agree with this, we have to discuss it again."

Ling Kun waved his hand again and again: "This matter has been decided, so let's do it." ”

Zhao Mingyue gritted her teeth with hatred, complained all the way, and returned to the inn.

Shangguan Chengcheng saw Zhao Mingyue's aggressiveness, so he asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhao Mingyue pouted and said, "You have high martial arts, you can take care of him, I can't help it." ”

"No, he still dares not to listen to you?" Shangguan Chengcheng asked suspiciously.

"He has to go to the East China Sea alone to fight the Dongying pirates, do you think this can be done?" Zhao Mingyue said angrily.

"Alone? Shall we go with him? ”

"What if we go with him? Besides, he asked me to lead troops to fight Western Xia, and asked you to post (shēn) to protect me. ”

"No, he must not go to Dongying alone." Shangguan stood up suddenly, and strongly objected.

"Look, I'm not the only one who says no, right?" Zhao Mingyue looked at Ling Kun and said, "You are simply overwhelmed, how can one person be able to deal with all the pirates?" In case there are three long and two short, you let ...... What to do with Allure? ”

"Poof." Ling Kun and Shangguan Chengcheng both burst into laughter, Shangguan Chengcheng glanced at her and said, "That's not what I'm talking about, I oppose him going alone, because I'm afraid that he will go out alone to mess with flowers and grass." ”

Zhao Mingyue and Ling Kun were stunned at the same time, looking at Shangguan Allure with wide eyes and shock, what kind of theory is this?
