Han Qian didn't directly discuss anything about the arrangement of the secret purpose, and asked Zheng Hui:

"Your Highness can go to Ezhou at this time?"

"When we left Jinling, His Highness had not yet left, but His Majesty had already decreed that His Highness should be the envoy of the Ezhou Festival, and that the Marquis of Chang Li Pu should be appointed as the deputy envoy of the Ezhou Festival—we were delayed on the road for a month, and His Highness should have already gone to Ezhou to take up his post," Zheng Hui said, "I believe that it will not be long before His Highness will send someone to Xuzhou to summon the interrogation, but Xuzhou cannot wait for His Highness to summon the interrogation before taking action." ”

Only by upgrading the Ezhou Thorn Mansion to the Jiedu Embassy Mansion can we dispatch the money, grain, soldiers and horses from the surrounding Huangzhou, Jiangzhou and other places outside Ezhou in an open and honest manner, and make the final preparations for cutting the feudal domain.

At present, Tanzhou has tightened the blockade of Dongting Lake and the waterways and key passes of the Yuanjiang River, making it more inconvenient for messengers to come and go, and the news of Xuzhou has become more closed and lagging behind.

Han Qian looked at his father Han Daoxun and said, "Father, what do you think?" ”

"I have ordered the main officials of Tanyang, Langxi and other counties to go to Qianyang, and after the emperor's decree is announced, you will lead the troops to escort Lord Zheng into Chenzhou as soon as possible." Han Daoxun didn't hesitate and said directly.

Han Qian believed that after Zheng Hui arrived in Qianyang City yesterday, he also figured out the situation in Syria and Chen Prefecture at this time.

He led the soldiers and horses of Xuzhou to escort Zheng Hui to Chenzhou to take up his post, which was actually an official use of troops against the native surname forces in Chenzhou.

However, seeing that his father was so decisive and straightforward, Han Qian had no excuse to delay, so he said: "In addition to the eight hundred water battalion generals who stayed in Qianyang City, Longya Mountain also gathered three thousand elite soldiers to stand by, and everything was under the orders of my father, Lord Zheng, and Lord Zhang. ”

Seeing that Han Daoxun and Han Qian's father and son had no intention of delaying, Zheng Hui relaxed slightly, and saluted Han Daoxun: "Whether the millions of people in the southwest of Great Chu can suffer less from the disaster of chaos depends on Lord Han's plan. ”

"Lord Zheng is overrated, you and I are Chu Chen, and we should do our best to plan for the Great Chu Society." Han Do-hoon said.

It took a certain amount of time for the county officials to rush to Qianyang City, and Han Daoxun first summoned the officials in Qianyang City to meet with Zheng Hui and announce the secret decree, which was actually the last mobilization before sending troops.

Zheng Hui was accompanied by his father and the envoy Zhang Ping and Xue Ruogu and others, Han Qian didn't rest much at night, and after the luncheon, he went back to the East Courtyard to take a breath.

"Emperor Tianyou still doesn't trust Xuzhou in the end, Zheng Hui came over with a secret decree, but he really wants to force Xuzhou to send troops first, and Jinling will officially issue an order to Tanzhou to cut the domain!" Xi Ying came back with Han Qian, and stood beside Han Qian in disguised as a man, and kept holding back without saying a word, but when he returned to the East Courtyard, he saw Han Qian's brows frowning slightly, knowing that he was also dissatisfied in his heart.

"The three princes commanded tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and after entering Yuezhou from the west of Ezhou, if there is a move on the side of Xuzhou, the surname of Chenzhou is easy to attack. If Xuzhou sends troops first and steps into the land of Chenzhou, I am afraid that there will be hard bones everywhere! Feng Yi subconsciously lowered his voice and said, he hoped that Han Qian could see the situation clearly and delay the time for Xuzhou to send troops.

"The imperial court first cut the feudal domain and sent troops from Ezhou to besiege Yuezhou, which can greatly deter the native surname forces in Chenzhou, thereby greatly reducing the pressure on the soldiers and horses of Xuzhou to go north along the Yuan River, and it is even possible to directly recruit some Fanzhai who are not firm in their will to resist,"

Han Qian stared at the Bodhi tree in the courtyard and said in a calm tone,

"However, Zheng Hui and I guarded Xichuan together, and served in the county king's mansion together, and he also participated in the conspiracy to cut the domain of Tanzhou from the beginning, and he and I have a close relationship, but you can see his nervous appearance just now, you know that there are really few people in Jinling who really rest assured of my father and son. At present, it seems that if Xuzhou does not send troops, it will be difficult for Jinling to make up its mind to cut the feudal domain! ”

"Even if Xuzhou wants to send troops first, the adults should persuade the defense envoy to personally lead the troops into Chenzhou." Feng Yi said again.

"You haven't read the edict?" Han Qian smiled slightly and said.

Feng Yi wanted to say how could he not have read the secret decree, Emperor Tianyou ordered the soldiers and horses of Xuzhou to escort Zheng Hui to Chenzhou to take up his post, if Han Daoxun did not go out in person as a defense envoy, but Han Qian and Zhang Pingren, the military supervisor, led the troops to escort Zheng Hui north, then who is the main general who leads the troops to the north?

Han Daoxun did not come out of the horse, Zheng Hui, as the deputy envoy of defense and the assassin of Chenzhou, had a higher status than Zhang Ping, the envoy of the army, and Han Qian, the envoy of the soldiers and horses.

Feng Yi was worried that Zheng Hui might make a noise, so he suggested this to Han Qian at this time.

Feng Yu was about to persuade Han Qian a few more words, but a thought flashed through his mind, and then he figured out why Han Qian said that he didn't understand the secret decree.

It's true that he didn't understand the secret!

The actual meaning revealed by Emperor Tianyou in the secret decree was that Zheng Hui wanted Zheng Hui to grasp the military power and serve as the chief general who led the troops north.

This is also the meaning of sending Zheng Hui over.

Otherwise, Zheng Hui, who can take charge alone and has rich experience in commanding troops, doesn't need to be in Ezhou, but let him take such a big risk to come to Xuzhou, isn't this enough to support?

If it was just that one person was needed to replace Wang Liang as the assassin of Chenzhou, nominally controlling the governance of Chenzhou, there would be a large number of middle- and high-ranking ministers in the court who died and did not matter.

Feng Yi suddenly understood that when Zheng Hui set off from Jinling, Emperor Tianyou could not confirm the attitude of the Han family's father and son, so he left some room for ambiguity in his words when drafting the decree.

"No wonder the defense envoy agreed so simply, it turns out that the defense envoy has long understood the true intentions of Emperor Tianyou!" Feng Yu said with emotion, "However, the adults don't really want to hand over the three thousand armor soldiers, right?" ”

Understanding the true meaning of Emperor Tianyou is one thing, but in Feng Yi's opinion, the Han family's father and son tried their best to cooperate with the direction of Ezhou to attack Tanzhou this time, which is to be loyal to Da Chu, and there is no need to honestly hand over the three thousand elites that they have managed to make up with great difficulty.

As long as the Han family's father and son firmly grasp these three thousand elites, even if the three princes fail to win the throne in the future, his father and son will both be loyal ministers and good generals of Great Chu; Otherwise, just like his Feng family, even if he is cautious, he can't escape the charge of rebellion.

Han Qian glanced at Feng Mi, thinking that Feng Mi also had excellent eyesight, but in the end he didn't see his father through, his father was full of thoughts about cutting the power of the princes of the Hao clan, so that the wealth and soldiers were all used for the country and the people's livelihood, where would he have the mind to be a prince of one party?

However, fortunately, Emperor Tianyou will burp at any time, even if he hands over his military power, in such a short period of time, no one should be able to weaken his influence on the three thousand armor soldiers.

As long as Tian Cheng, Gao Shao, Lin Haizheng, Xi Chang, Feng Xuan, Feng Zhang and other generals will not be so easily co-opted, which also means that after the death of Emperor Tianyou, as long as he needs to, he can take back the military power at any time.

…………

Zheng Hui stayed in Qianyang City for two days, and after meeting with the officials of Xuzhou, informing the imperial court of the new Ezhou Jiedu Embassy, the Wuling Defense Embassy, and the plan to cut down the Tanzhou domain, he rushed to Longya City by boat with Han Qian and Zhang Ping, the military envoy, on the third day.

After arriving in Longya City, Han Qian immediately summoned Tian Cheng, Gao Shao, Lin Haizheng and others, and wanted to hand over the command of the elite soldiers of the three battalions to Zheng Hui to take over, with Zheng Hui as the main general, fully responsible for sending troops to recruit Chenzhou.

Entering the walled hall, Han Qian insisted that Zheng Hui sit behind the central case, and said: "The fact that Han Qian led the troops to govern the army is sparse, and this time I am fortunate to have Tiancheng and Gao Shao to help me, so I can barely support it." After that, all this was taken over by Lord Zheng, and Han Qian could be much easier. However, Han Qian is good at counting, and he also likes to ponder the skills of the craftsmen in the camp, and he may be able to share the worries of Lord Zheng in matters such as logistics and baggage......"

What Han Qian meant by this was to hand over the command, and he was only responsible for logistics and other matters.

Zheng Hui is no stranger to Tian Cheng, Gao Shao, and Lin Haizheng, even if he has not had much contact with Xi Chang, Feng Xuan, and Feng Zhang, he also knows that they have served under Han Qian during the Xichuan Defensive War, and they all seem to be unhappy with Han Qian handing over the command, so he is also quiet, and looks at Han Qian's arrangement first.

Zheng Hui didn't want to fight for the power of the elite soldiers of the three battalions from the Han family's father and son, let alone have a bad relationship with Han Daoxun, especially with Han Qian, but he didn't want to go against the will of Emperor Tianyou.

In the final analysis, even he was worried about how loyal Han Daoxun and Han Qian's father and son were to Da Chu.

He did not take over the military power from Han Daoxun and Han Qian's father and son, even if Han Daoxun and Han Qian personally led their troops and horses into Chenzhou, they could not completely dispel the imperial court's worries about his father and son.

After all, who knows if this is the Han family's father and son taking the opportunity to annex Chenzhou?

After the Han family father and son annexed Chenzhou, and then suddenly took action to imprison all the officials sent by Jinling as a condition for making peace with Tanzhou, then the imperial court's plan to cut the domain of Tanzhou became a joke?

In the past few decades, there have been too many feudal domains in the Central Plains, and it is by no means easy to gain a little trust from each other.

Of course, the Han family father and son are indeed loyal to Da Chu and have no different aspirations, this time they can successfully cut the domain of Tanzhou, Zheng Hui believes that the imperial court will inevitably not lack the official reward for the Han family father and son.

Han Qian seemed to guess what Zheng Hui was thinking, and continued: "Lord Yuan and Zheng Zhicheng only led more than 20 people to escort Lord Zheng into Xuzhou, if you want to attack the city and dial the wall, it will be difficult to protect Lord Zheng's personal safety, and I also ask Lord Zheng to select a group of elites from the three battalions to form a personal guard battalion......

Zheng Hui, as the deputy envoy for defense, is already a general at the level of deputy commander and deputy commander of the capital.

Even if he didn't have enough soldiers around him, he could select a 500-strong personal guard battalion from ordinary generals to guard the safety, and carry out the military orders he issued to correct the violations of law and discipline in the army.

Of course, there are only 3,600 soldiers assembled in Dragon Tooth City, and the scale of the guard battalion around Zheng Hui should not be too large, the scale of 300 people is enough, but this will also completely reflect Zheng Hui's status as the main general.

Hearing Han Qian say this, don't talk about Feng Yi, Tian Cheng, Gao Shao, Lin Haizheng and others were secretly shocked, Han Qian wanted them to completely obey Zheng Hui's orders!
