Long Father-in-law says:

"This time, a total of 43,000 soldiers from the five battalions of the Beijing camp will go on the expedition, Wei Hou, it's time for you to show your skills."

The number of people that Gonggong Long said was more than Lan Ziyi expected, but it was still too small compared to the number of reincarnated thieves.

兰子义 says:

"Father-in-law, the thieves claim to be 400,000 people, even if the soldiers in the Beijing camp are well-trained and not afraid of death, but the number is still too small."

Grandpa Long had a smile on his face when he heard this, and when he just wanted to speak, Qi Rongxun had already grabbed the conversation

"Wei Hou is also the queen of the gate, and he doesn't even have this common sense? There are clouds in the art of war: the virtual is real, and the real is virtual. The thief acts against the sky, and his heart is weak, and he must blempty to deter people's hearts when he wanders around. If there were really 400,000 people in the terrain of Lingling Mountain, the thieves would have to starve and eat people before they even reached the edge of the river. Moreover, this kind of mob rebellion has always dragged families and families, and the number of people has also added all the old, weak, women and children, and the officials who escaped from Lingling and Gangneung also said that the thieves and robbers charged in front of the battle, and the old and weak clamored behind, and the momentum was huge. According to the information obtained so far, the thieves are only 100,000 to 150,000 in Jiangling, and the real combatable soldiers will not exceed 50,000. Wei Hou has been soaking in Gentle Township for too long these days, or is it originally an embroidered pillow, I heard that Wei Hou didn't go out to see the battle at all when he fell in the wild goose pass, so it's not surprising to think about it. ”

Qi Rongxun said, and looked at Gonggong Long, with a proud look.

Lan Ziyi was slapped in public, and his face was still a little unbearable, and it was also because he had no information about having fun these days, and his eyes were black. Qi Rongxun spoke so confidently because he had done his homework in advance.

Lan Ziyi said again:

"Even so, we should not be careless, fighting a war is not child's play, and it is really impossible to trust without being absolutely sure. Jingying still has the heavy responsibility of guarding the capital, so what if the main force is withdrawn, what if there is a change in the capital? “

Gonggong Long didn't care about Qi Rongxun, but said to Lan Ziyi with a smile:

"I think I'm peaceful in the world, it's just that this handful of demons are acting recklessly, how can there be anything in the capital? And didn't you just say that you want to see Wei Hou show your skills? Isn't it okay for you to assist the prince to win the battle as soon as possible? “

兰子义 says:

"Although Ziyi was born in Wuxun, he has never led troops to battle. Dare to ask my father-in-law, apart from me and Qi Commander, is there anyone else who will assist the prince in this expedition? “

Grandpa Long smiled:

"I made it clear when I sent someone to the palace last time, and there is still the army of Duke Yugong pressing the formation. Wei Hou doesn't have to be humble, I believe you, your heroic deeds of killing two thousand horse thieves with five hundred Wei Zhuang soldiers on the grassland have long been spread all over the capital, and even the emperor has praised this matter, Wei Hou, you can give full play to your wisdom and knowledge, and make contributions only at this time. “

It is rare for someone to appreciate his ability, and Lan Ziyi is of course very useful when he listens to it, but as long as it involves the military, Lan Ziyi's intuition that he has exercised since he was a child in the army still makes Lan Ziyi calm and abnormal, and he is not blown up by the praise of Gonggong Long.

兰子义 says:

"Since my father-in-law believes in Ziyi, then Ziyi's suggestion is to increase the troops, and it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and this strength alone cannot guarantee victory."

Grandpa Long didn't smile again this time, but said in a deep voice:

"The soldiers are so fast, and there is no time to mobilize other armies now. The thieves have occupied the north-south hub, no matter where they flow next, it will cause immeasurable losses, and they must be dealt with as soon as possible. “

Lan Ziyi has always felt that Grandpa Long is not like a eunuch, especially when he speaks, his voice is low and full of momentum, and every time Grandpa Long's mood fluctuates, he Lan Ziyi will feel a headache, it is really evil.

Of course, Lan Ziyi was not frightened by this scene, stared at Gonggong Long and said without giving in:

"But the commander of the troops this time is not me, but the prince."

As soon as these words came out, Qi Rongxun interjected:

"Lan Ziyi, do you want to say that the prince is not worthy of leading the troops?"

Father-in-law Long didn't let Qi Rongxun finish his words, and stretched out his hand to stop him. It seems that Gonggong Long still knows King De's catties.

Long Father-in-law says:

"I ...... The emperor has already asked Duke Yu to supervise the army, and I will remind King De well so that he will not make a mess. Wei Hou just has to do what he is good at. “

Hearing this, Lan Ziyi also understood that it was useless to say more, so he stopped talking, after all, Gonggong Long was just the master of ceremonies, even if he made a deal with Zhang Mingyue, there would be a chance to see the emperor later.

Qi Rongxun has not been taken seriously by Grandpa Long for a long time, and he has a feeling of having a hot face and a cold ass, but he doesn't seem to mind at all, which is very strange.

After Gonggong Long finished arranging things, he went back to the palace first.

Lan Ziyi went back to the deer garden to wash again, changed into court clothes, and arrived in front of the arch gate on time, and waited until several other lords of the dynasty and Qi Rongxun entered the palace to meet the emperor.

I had always heard that the emperor was sick in bed, but after actually seeing it, I realized how sick he was. The current emperor can only lie on the bed, and he needs the help of the palace maid next to him to get up and turn over. When he saw the minister, he just nodded slightly. I could hear other people talking, but the emperor himself was speechless, so he could only say some plans to Gonggong Long, and the emperor hummed twice to show his agreement, or shook his head to say no.

In addition, Lan Ziyi can also feel some other things, which seem to be somewhat familiar, but they can't say what they are, just like the black mist he felt when he first saw Gonggong Long, this black mist enveloped the emperor, but it didn't seem to have this black mist, just a feeling that appeared from time to time, very mysterious, and it was not clear to say.

This audience was almost a routine affair, and after the ministers bowed their heads, they said things that had already been decided: the time of the expedition, the number of people, the generals, and the plan. Gonggong Long and Zhang Mingyue are like you have practiced in advance, the emperor is lying on the bed or nodding, or shaking his head, once he shakes his head, Gonggong Long or Zhang Mingyue will put forward some filings, but the matter is mainly in accordance with the plan that Gonggong Long has already said. Until Lan Ziyi spoke.

Originally, when the performance had ended and the ministers were ready to retreat, Lan Ziyi suddenly came out and kowtowed and said:

"Hou Lanzi, the minister of the guard pavilion, said bravely, the Beijing camp guards the capital, the responsibility is heavy, and pouring out of the nest will make the defense of the capital empty, if there is a change, it will be too late to regret it. The minister thought that all the departments of the forbidden army should be mobilized to surround the thieves in order to complete. “

Unexpectedly, after the emperor heard Lan Ziyi's name on the bed, his eyes suddenly flashed, and he struggled to turn over, stared at Lan Ziyi, and reached out to knock over the water cup on the table to the ground.

Lan Ziyi saw that the emperor was furious, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly kowtowed. On the side, Grandpa Long said:

"The emperor is angry, although the Marquis of Wei is offended, but he is also loyal to the country, and he is still the right-hand man of King De, the emperor must be angry!"

then gave Lan Ziyi and the eunuch on the side,

Lan Ziyi hurriedly kowtowed like pounding garlic after seeing it, knelt on the ground and retreated, before going out Lan Ziyi secretly glanced up, and saw the emperor pointing to the door and roaring, as if he was going to drive Lan Ziyi out of the palace immediately.

After leaving the emperor's bedroom, Lan Ziyi found that the clothes on his back were soaked. I didn't expect such a sentence to make the emperor angry, and sure enough, the emperor's mind is unpredictable, and it seems that it is impossible to expect the emperor to agree to increase the army.

At this time, Gonggong Long and several adults walked out of the dormitory.

Lan Ziyi hurriedly gave up, after all, he didn't follow the rules in front of the emperor just now, and the last time he collided with Father-in-law Long, his father was forced to make profits, this time, in addition to this kind of thing, if Father-in-law Long doesn't handle it well, can he pay it back?

It's just that he didn't expect that Gonggong Long not only didn't get angry, but showed a mysterious smile at Lan Ziyi, as if he expected it, could it be that Gonggong Long had already seen through that he was going to play in front of the emperor, or was he sure that the emperor would listen to his advice?

Gonggong Long pretended to be angry and said to Lan Ziyi:

"Wei Hou is so presumptuous, which makes our family very embarrassed! The emperor's body is already weak, and if you are so angry, if you have a flash of defense, can you afford it? Hurry back and pack your things to prepare, and the day after tomorrow you will go out with the prince. ”

Gonggong Long's painless reprimand made Lan Ziyi's crime of angering the emperor just now, and others couldn't find an excuse to bite Lan Ziyi again, but it seems that the adults are not interested, and everyone followed Zhang Mingyue and Gonggong Long and walked slowly outside the palace.

Lan Ziyi also stood aside, thinking about the day after tomorrow, the Jingying soldiers have never been in contact, I don't know how different it is compared to the Beizhen army, only how can these more than 40,000 people fight against hundreds of thousands of rebels, it's really a headache to think about, if my father is around, I can ask him, but now it's ....... Suddenly, Lan Ziyi had a flash of inspiration and remembered a person, maybe he could help himself.

Lan Ziyi put down his hand, watched the others slowly go away, and then asked the eunuch to lead him to the near road, hurried out of the palace, and after returning to the palace, he quickly whipped his horse and went to the west gate of the capital.

When Lan Ziyi arrived at the manor, it was already evening, Lan Ziyi knocked on the door of the house and said:

"Hou Lan Ziyi in Xiawei Pavilion, ask to see Taiwei Zhang, can Taiwei be in the house?"

The little guy smiled:

"Wei Hou came just in time, my lord has been waiting for you for a long time."

Lan Ziyi was surprised when he heard this, how did Zhang Wang know that he was coming? This was really beyond Lan Ziyi's expectations.

The little guy led Lan Ziyi all the way to the hall, and looked at the table and waited, and the table was full of bacon, dried food, bean sauce or something that was often eaten in the army.

Seeing Lan Ziyi enter the house, Zhang Wang said happily:

"Wei Hou is here? The old man has been waiting for you for a long time. Why is Wei Hou's brows furrowed so tightly? Do you think this table is too rough to eat? I think this meal is very timely. Come, you're welcome, let the old man entertain you with a military meal today. “
