After reading the battle report, Xu Deshan's face turned blue with anger, and he directly threw the battle report on Ming Hao's table, and asked, "Lord Ming, the rebels have now captured Beizhou City, burning and looting everywhere, why don't you send troops!" ”

Speaking of this, Ming Ho is also a little embarrassed, he is a dignified head of the Soldiers and Horses Division of the Daimyo Mansion, and he has no way to take a small anti-thief all the way, and he is so scared that he does not dare to go out in the Daimyo's Mansion, which is really a little aggrieved, so Ming Ho is also a little lacking in confidence in the face of Xu Deshan's questioning, and said, "I want to send troops, but now I have only a few thousand soldiers and horses, and only 70,000 people, this number may not be as many as the rebels, how do you tell me to send troops, in case the rebels hit with all their might, fight to the death, The rebels have not been wiped out, and I am afraid that the only strength they have will be eaten by the rebels. ”

Xu Deshan said angrily, "How did you become an official, how did you pass the strategy and palace test back then, I thought that as an official, since you are in charge of one side of the people, then you must take the people first, then the government, and the soldiers, it is even more important to protect the people as their own responsibility, and now the lives of the people outside Beizhou City are in misery, but you are grinding and chirping here, watching coldly, and I want to make me look down on you." ”

Myeongho was speechless and said vaguely, "This ......"

Xu Deshan called him by his name and said, "Ming Ho, just say it, you can't send troops!" ”

Ming Ho was speechless, Xu Deshan slapped directly on the table, and said, "Okay, Ming Ho, if you don't send troops, then I'll go by myself, I will die under the rebel knife, and I will die for the people, and I will die for my Song Dynasty, and you ...... Go to your lord! ”

Xu Deshan said a word, said that the faces of the officials sitting were blue and red, and Ming Hao didn't know how to answer, at this time, a big man stood up in the corner, and shouted, "Okay, well-said, Xu Deshan, Xu Langjun, worthy of being the first boy in the Daimyo Mansion, you go to kill the enemy, I Wei Huang will also accompany you, and if you die, you will die, and after eighteen years, you will be a good man, and the province will sit here and suffer from the nest." ”

It's just that Xu Deshan alone is enough for Ming Ho to be upset, and now there is another Wei Huang running out, Ming Ho's angry eyes are full of gold stars, don't look at Ming Ho There is no way to take Xu Deshan, but there is still a set of these generals under him, and he suddenly glared at that Wei Huang, Wei Huang hesitated, gritted his teeth and said, "Look at what I'm doing, you see me, I will also follow Xu Langjun into battle to kill the enemy, isn't it just a general, if you want it, it's not right, if you want it, I'll give it back to you!" ”

It's okay now, the situation is frozen all of a sudden, if you say that Xu Deshan and Ming Ho quarrel, firstly, Xu Deshan is young, and secondly, Xu Deshan is a person from Jia Changchao, and if he does not belong to Ming Ho, the two will quarrel, but now the generals under Ming Ho have also turned their faces with Ming Ho, and the following offenses are committed, and the military camp is taboo, this is called how Ming Ho came to the stage, Ming Ho's face was pale, and he couldn't wait to draw his sword Wei Huang was killed.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xu Deshan hurriedly grabbed Ming Hao's sleeve and said, "This general, what are you anxious about, Lord Ming didn't say that he didn't send troops, why are you in a hurry, why don't you apologize to Lord Ming quickly!" ”

Yes, this good man let Xu Deshan do it inside and out, then Wei Huang still felt aggrieved in his heart, reluctantly clasped his fists and saluted, and sat down angrily, Xu Deshan pulled Ming Ho's sleeve and dragged Ming Ho into the hut next to him.

Ming Ho is so angry in his heart, Xu Deshan is not against himself, he didn't say that he would not send troops, Xu Deshan wanted to make the atmosphere so stiff, now it's okay, you say that it is better to send troops or not to send troops, doesn't sending troops mean that you have lost face, and if you don't send troops, won't you become an official and scholar who only knows how to enjoy and does not make decisions for the people, where can he stand such irony.

Ming Ho was angry in his heart, ignored Xu Deshan, and swore that as long as Xu Deshan didn't say good things to himself, he would ignore Xu Deshan, but Ming Ho obviously underestimated the power of children, think about it, a four-year-old child, try to sell cute and coquettish to you, can you bear it? Don't say you don't speak, even if it's riding on your neck and, you have to endure it obediently, and you still have a smiling face.

Ming Ho said helplessly, "Xu Deshan, little ancestor, what do you want, can you stop tossing me?" ”

Xu Deshan said: "Naturally, I want you to send troops!" ”

Ming Ho said, "But with this soldier in my hand, how can I beat others, this is a big deal, you have to think clearly before you talk about it." ”

Xu Deshan said, "It seems that you haven't discovered the true meaning of this war, don't care who they are, how powerful they are, they are all rebels, they kill people and set fires, no matter what they think, they are all unrighteous, they are guilty, and we are guilty, and we, even if the combat effectiveness is poor, but it is also the army of the Great Song Dynasty, the division of justice, and the division is famous, and the people support it, so it is fair and fair, both sides of the enemy and us, and it is not possible to break the truth by fighting the evil with righteousness." ”

Myeongho looked at Xu Deshan dumbfoundedly and idiotically, and asked, "You don't think that this battlefield matter, just like what is said in the storybook, is a confrontation between good and evil, and the righteous will definitely win, when did you become so naïve." ”

Xu Deshan glanced at Ming Ho and said, "I said these words to the soldiers, if you think so, then you are too naïve, don't you know, the art of war has clouds, all fighters, attack the heart first, we have such a big advantage, you don't take advantage of it, how can you become the head of the soldiers and horses." ”

Ming Ho was stunned by Xu Deshan's training, and said, "How to use this?" ”

Xu Deshan said, "Think about it, they are rebels now, except for him

Followers of Maitreya Buddhism, everyone else is their enemy, now it is not that we are afraid of him, but he should be afraid of us, they should now have a feeling of rumors, grass and trees, if they are robbing, suddenly see our army brigade, what do you think they should be feeling? ”

Myeongho thought carefully, "Cautious? Be careful? ”

Xu Deshan said, "Yes, we don't need to fight with him, as long as we rely on the strength of the crowd and press forward step by step, he will definitely not dare to fight with us, only retreat, we will force them into Beizhou City and surround the city, then it doesn't matter what you Xuanyi Army Qianning Army, it's not all turtles in the urn, rats in the hole, the initiative is back to us, and when the time comes, how to fix them, isn't it just that you can follow our wishes." ”

Ming Ho thought about it, and felt that what Xu Deshan said made sense, and after thinking about it, he felt that something was missing, and after thinking about it, Xu Deshan was a little annoyed, and said, "Whether you can send troops or not, I have finished the reason, if you are disobedient, I will go to Jia Changchao." ”

Ming Ho admired Xu Deshan's ability to appease him all the way and say his name casually without being afraid at all, and then he was relieved, Xu Deshan didn't even pay attention to Jia Changchao, and it was normal for him to be called around.

Looking at Xu Deshan's resolute little eyes, he secretly sighed in his heart, since no matter what he does, Xu Deshan will encourage Jia Changchao to send troops, so what else will he block.

Thinking of this, Ming Ho suddenly felt a long-lost feeling of blood boiling in his heart, opened the door curtain, strode in front of the officials, and in the stunned eyes of the officials, he said word by word, "The officers listen to the order, set off immediately, and the school field is ordered, and I shall prevail, and those who cannot be drummed through the three links will be engaged in military law!" ”

Ming Ho is worthy of being a lifetime of horses, when he made up his mind, determined the goal, and then it can be said that he did things vigorously, you know, Ming Ho alone took a carriage to the school field is simple, but it is difficult for the army to go to the school field, level by level communication, gathering, plus temporary things, accidents, seven thousand people, suddenly, in the three drums to catch up with the school, the time is tight enough.

Myeongho looked at the officials in the room who hadn't reacted yet, and shouted, "What are you waiting for, military law is ruthless, don't blame me for beating your board when the time comes!" ”

At this time, the officials reacted, got up in a hurry, and walked out, but Wei Huang next to him laughed, gave a deep salute to Ming Hao, and said, "Lord Ming, I, Wei Huang, rushed into the adult, and the crime deserves death, but now that the two armies are facing each other, the adult does not need to kill me, I am willing to kill the enemy with a knife, and die on the battlefield. ”

After Wei Huang finished speaking, he also turned around and left, and in the blink of an eye, there were two people left in the room, Ming Ho and Xu Deshan.

Since it was a military order issued by Ming Ho, Ming Ho naturally had to set an example, simply cleaned up, put on the official clothes of the head of the Soldiers and Horses Division, called his own carriage, and rushed to the school field, while Xu Deshan naturally got into Ming Ho's carriage.

Xu Mache left the Terracotta Division and went straight to the school, Xu Deshan saw that Ming Hao's expression was majestic, and there was a little nervousness in it, and he couldn't help but smile and said, "Master Ming, is this the first time to order soldiers on campus, why does it look a little scared?" ”

Ming Ho said, "I'm afraid, I've been an official for 20 years, and most of them have spent time in the army. ”

Xu Deshan said with great interest, "Master Ming is so knowledgeable, so I don't know what to pay attention to in this school."

Ming Ho said, "The school field is a step before the soldiers go out, one is to ask the chief officer to speak, to improve morale, and the other is to accept the commander of the army, and the rest of the mess, there is nothing." ”

Xu Deshan asked, "Then do you know how adults can boost morale?" ”

Ming Ho said, "You don't have to worry about this, I haven't eaten pork, and I've seen pigs go, it's nothing more than saying something like heaven and earth bless, my emperor's guard, and finally promise a rich reward, it's good." ”

Xu Deshan stared at Myeongho and asked, "That's it?" ”

Ming Ho is afraid of Xu Deshan's eyes now, just like a teacher looking at a student, Ming Ho hurriedly thought about it again, for fear of falling into something, and then shook his head and confirmed, "No." ”

Xu Deshan sighed and said, "It's a shame that you're still a scholar, and that's not how you do ideological work." ”

Ming Ho said, "What kind of ideological work, it's all virtual, the front is all scene talk, saying a thousand ways and ten thousand, and in the end it still falls on that reward, or it is said that fighting is an errand that costs money, if you don't have a lot of money to sprinkle down, say that you will fight with your life." ”

Xu Deshan shook his head and said, "Lao Ming, your thinking is not right, we scholars, how can we keep money on our lips, the pen is our most powerful weapon, we must convince people with reason." ”

Myeongho was amused by Xu Deshan and asked, "So, you don't want the silver you asked for from Master Jia." ”

Xu Deshan immediately interrupted Ming Ho and said, "Yes, of course, that's what I deserve!" ”

Myeongho smiled and said, "Then you should tell me, how to convince people with reason?" ”

Xu Deshan said, "Convince people with reason, the most important thing is to say something that can convince the soldiers.

For example, if these soldiers recruited are not all from the Daimyo's Mansion, you can say that this year's Yellow River flooded and went straight to the Daimyo's Mansion, and the court originally allocated enough silver for disaster relief, but now that there are rebels in rebellion, the money for disaster relief will be used to counter-rebel, so if the Yellow River floods, it may not be completely blocked...... In this way, wouldn't everyone be able to fight the enemy with one heart? ”

Ming Ho hesitated for a long time, and said carefully, "In the end, this is not falling on the silver, besides, I haven't heard that Lord Jia has the idea of misappropriating the silver of the Yellow River, I say so, isn't it...... It's a bit not so good. ”

Xu Deshan said, "Let's be reasonable, reasonable, and besides, you have been an official for so many years, why haven't you learned to be double-faced and deceived from your superiors." ”

……

After that, Xu Deshan was driven out of the car by Ming Ho and casually thrown at the entrance of a street, seeing Ming Ho's carriage galloping away, Xu Deshan had to look for a way on the street.

Now the Daimyo's Mansion has been completely lively, the soldiers everywhere, after getting the order, rushed to the school field, and the people everywhere, also want to go to see the excitement, seeing that further forward, the road has become congested, Xu Deshan is too lazy to squeeze forward, look at the direction, think that this is not far from Jia Changchao, so he crossed two streets and looked for Jia Changchao.

Coincidentally, the news of Ming Hao's soldiers came suddenly, even Jia Changchao was not prepared, after someone brought the news, Jia Changchao was also a little caught off guard, and he didn't understand why he went to fight such a big thing, Ming Hao didn't discuss it with himself and decided on his own, and later I heard that Xu Deshan ran to Ming Ho to make a big fuss, Jia Changchao could understand Ming Hao, and hurriedly put on his official uniform and prepared to go to the school.

When Xu Deshan walked halfway, he met Jia Changchao's carriage, Xu Deshan was very familiar with this carriage, and easily stopped the carriage and skillfully got into it.

Jia Changchao was a little surprised when he saw that it was Xu Deshan, and asked, "Why are you here, didn't you go to the school with Master Ming?" ”

Xu Deshan was a little embarrassed, touched his nose and said, "I was originally going to go, but then I had some disputes with Master Ming, and he said that he couldn't help me, so he drove me down, so I had to come to Lord Jia." ”

Jia Changchao said strangely, "Even for such a big thing as sending troops, Lord Ming didn't drive you out, what did you say that made Lord Ming lose his temper." ”

Xu Deshan said, "I have an idea, I called him to be two-faced and three-stabbed, yang and yin, deceitful and hidden, and then he seemed to be unhappy and drove me down." ”

……

Then, if Xu Deshan hadn't hugged Jia Changchao's thigh, Jia Changchao would have kicked Xu Deshan out of the carriage, just like that, between talking, the two also came to the school grounds, at this time Ming Ho had already come, personally picked up the drumstick, and finished the first drum.

Seeing Jia Changchao coming, Ming Ho hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and then saw Xu Deshan following behind, Ming Hao's face turned black all of a sudden, ignoring Xu Deshan, and only invited Jia Changchao to sit down on the main seat, Xu Deshan of course would not be so frightened by Ming Hao, he consciously ran over and sat next to Jia Changchao.

The two bigwigs, for the sake of Confucian etiquette, always ask for a few words every time they meet, but before Jia Changchao could speak, Xu Deshan interjected and said, "Lord Ming, I only discussed the speech skills with you in the carriage just now, and there is one more thing I haven't said, I don't know who you are going to call as the boss." ”

Ming Ho is so angry, is it called a discussion when he is in the car, it is obviously a mistake, and I have already decided to send troops, you still care who my boss is, is this what you should be in charge of, in the end are you in charge or I am in charge, can we still have a bottom line.

If you are angry, you will be angry, but in front of Jia Changchao, Ming Ho can't vent it yet, and even if you don't tell Xu Deshan now, you will have to announce it later, so angry with Xu Deshan, it seems that you are too petty.

Ming Ho secretly calmed down his emotions, ignored Xu Deshan, and said to Jia Changchao, "Lord Jia, this time I want to take General Xiaocai as the commander, I don't know what Lord Jia wants?" ”

Before Jia Changchao could speak, Xu Deshan asked again, "Who is this Xiaocai general?" ”

Ming Ho said angrily, "It's the Wei Huang who hit me in the morning!" ”

Xu Deshan said: "I didn't expect that Lord Ming still has the virtue of being virtuous and not avoiding relatives, and not avoiding revenge." ”

Myeongho said angrily, "If you hadn't provoked it in the morning, what kind of enmity could the two of us have!" ”

Jia Changchao obviously didn't care about what happened before, but said, "Why do you use Wei Huang as the commander?" ”

Ming Ho said, "This Wei Huang was originally the commander of the Qianning Army, and later was promoted to the general of the Xiao Cavalry because of his merits, and he was appointed to the Daimyo Mansion, and the position of the commander of the Qianning Army was taken over by the former deputy marshal and his sworn brother, this time the Qianning Army rebelled, and first beheaded his brother, he had already held back a breath of anger in his heart to avenge his brother, plus that Wei Huang was brave and unparalleled, and was a good hand at leading troops, the only shortcoming was that this goods did not have brains to fight, but this is also easy to do, I called him the commander-in-chief, and then gave him a prison army to control him, That's it. ”

When Xu Deshan heard this, his eyes lit up, clapped his hands and said, "This is a good idea, I am willing to be this prison army." ”
