"What? Are you saying it again? ”

In the camp outside the forest, after Zhu Shou listened to the report of his subordinates, his eyes widened suddenly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The person who reported to him was also one of his personal soldiers, and when he heard the words, he said again: "General Hui, the Hun thieves have been defeated, one suspected bandit leader fled, the other thirty-seven people, thirteen people died, and the rest were captured, among which the thief leader Liu Yunyan was beheaded!" ”

Zhu Shou paused, and then said: "No, I'm asking, what you said before, defeating the Huns and killing Liu Yunyan, is it really Chen Zhi?" ”

The soldier nodded, "It's true! This news has been verified, as evidenced by Mao Li, Kong Jiang, Luo Yan, etc. ”

"Awesome! Awesome! This Mr. Chen's family is really amazing! When Zhu Shou heard this, he couldn't help grinning, "Although the world looks down on the Huns, the ability of the Hun cavalry will be known, not to mention anything else, just say that the Marquis of Dongping chased and killed the Xiongnu before, and he fought with the Huns, and almost suffered a loss!" This is the same as those scholars who look down on us soldiers, they feel that once the army is invincible, they know the danger inside, otherwise the northern front can be defeated? ”

As he spoke, he also realized that he was off topic, so he retracted his words and said: "Since the Huns have been pacified, there is no need to send people over, it was originally to give King Lu a face, and since the Huns are gone, there is no need to send people over." ”

"No!" The soldier was about to leave after speaking, but suddenly remembered something, and said: "General, there is news that General Mi has also led his men and horses and is rushing to Lu County. ”

"What do you say?" Zhu Shou sneered, "Mi Jun's thoughts, I know very well, he was assigned to Xuzhou by the Marquis of Dongping a few days ago, and he originally had the intention of balancing me, and now he has taken a fancy to Xuzhou's military power, but unfortunately he has not done an inch, this time the Huns' matter is an opportunity in his opinion, but people are not as good as heaven, with Mr. Chen in it, where is his benefit!" ”

The pro-soldier nodded as if he didn't understand, and was about to retreat, but was stopped by Zhu Shou again.

"Go and let people prepare, General Ben will personally go to Lu County to visit Mr. Chen."

"General, do you want to go there in person?" The pro-soldier finally became surprised, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate, general, you have the order of a large army, how can you leave without permission?" ”

"How far is Lu County from here?" Zhu Shou raised his eyebrows, "Besides, Mr. Chen is here, how can I not go over to see him in person?" This matter can't be justified, besides, Mi Jun may have to go over in person, and I have to meet this old friend. ”

When the soldiers heard this, they knew that their master had made up his mind, and according to his past nature, he couldn't stop it at all, so he answered.

As soon as the pro-soldier left, Zhu Shou sat and thought for a while, and then recruited Zheng Guan.

"Mr. Zheng, now that the Northern Army has been defeated, the Marquis of Wuxiang has the intention of retreating, and the Marquis of Dongping has sent me a message, saying that I am trying to fight for the position of the Northern Expedition, what do you think?"

After Zheng Guan listened, he shook his head without hesitation and said: "The general must not be mixed in, the situation in the north is not so simple, judging from the information we received, the defeat of the northern army this time, there are many factors in it, intricate, the most important thing is that there is the shadow of the political struggle of the imperial court, such as the Marquis of Wuxiang, such as the Marquis of Wuxiang, they have to return to the court, it can be seen that it is complicated, general, you have just formed a foundation, it is the time when you need to be stable, you must not rush forward." ”

"Oh? But if you can pacify the Xiongnu, it will be a great feat," Zhu Shou frowned, revealing an expression of difficulty in making a choice, "Have you ever heard of Mr. Chen?" He confronted more than 30 Huns head-on with 50 foot soldiers in a flat and open land, not only did not fall behind, but repelled them! These Huns are carefully selected, even if they are put into the army of the Huns, they are also the best, but they are not defeated by Mr. Chen's family, if he helps, I go north to fight, may not be hopeless. ”

As a general in the army, the news Zhu Shou got was undoubtedly more true, and the specific number of Huns and their origins were clear.

Zheng Guan said: "Mr. Chen's ability to train soldiers, that is natural, otherwise the general will not accept my suggestion, set up a big account here, borrow a little bit of Mr. Chen's military training techniques that I summarized, and practiced day and night, but this time, whether it is the Huns or Mr. Chen, the number of soldiers and horses is not much, and the two sides add up to no more than a hundred, and it cannot be used as a reference, so the general is still cautious." ”

Zhu Shou pondered for a while, and then asked, "But how do I reply from Dongping Hou?" ”

Zheng Guan said with a smile: "This is easy to do, Dongping Hou wants to recommend the general, what he wants is different from the general, what he wants is to expand his influence in the army, the general does not need to disobey openly, he only needs to make some mistakes." ”

Zhu Shou was stunned when he heard this: "How to make a mistake?" ”

Zheng Guan still smiled: "I heard that the general plans to leave his post without permission and go to Lu County?" Isn't that just something to be used for? General Mi is going, maybe there will be some movement, when the time comes, general, you take the opportunity to make the news bigger, and when everyone knows that you have left your post without permission, shouldn't Dongping Hou reprimand you? When the time comes, you'll have to shut yourself up and think about it, and you can't go any further to the northern route. ”

"Brilliant plan!" Zhu Shou gave a thumbs up, "I thought that your Mr. Zheng knew about this and wanted to persuade me not to go, but I didn't expect it to be instigated, so it's okay, just go to see Mr. Chen, I haven't seen him once." ”

Zheng Guan smiled and said nothing, and was about to retreat.

But Zhu Shou suddenly stopped him, and couldn't help asking: "This northern line really can't be touched?" He, the Huns, even if he was proud for a while, but this time the officers and soldiers were defeated, and the court faced it squarely, how could the Huns resist? That's just a corner of the place! ”

Zheng Guan knew that he still had thoughts in his heart, so he simply picked out: "This time, the key is not in the battlefield, the king of the East China Sea collapsed, the king of Guanghan, the abolished prince came out, and the Hou Yin of Wuxiang, this series of changes shows that someone is behind the force, the general is a soldier, and he must not make a move in this matter, this is not to win a battle, it can be clarified, and it is ......"

He suddenly lowered his voice: "I suspect that this time Xingtan talked about it, and suddenly invited the frontier aliens, even with the Xiongnu nobles can come, I'm afraid there is a problem, but these words are useless, the general just needs to build a stable foundation, and wait for the time to come." ”

Zhu Shou nodded and said: "Since you have said this, there is nothing to say, just wait to see Mr. Chen, by the way, you write a few letters, call those boys back, and go with me, they are about the same age as Mr. Chen, just make friends, and pave the way for the future." ”

Zheng Guan nodded with a smile: "This is the right reason." ”

Zhu Shou said again: "Zhu Jing, this kid, sent him out to do things, I want to train him, and it's time to come back, but I received a letter before, saying that he and Mr. Chen had some misunderstandings, and he just took this opportunity to reconcile, but I don't know, where has this kid been playing recently, and there is no one all day." ”

………………

"General Mi, you believe me, this Chen Zhi categorically does not have this ability, the skills of the Hun cavalry, I saw it when I quelled the rebellion with the Marquis of Dongping, even if there are less than a hundred people, but as long as they charge, it will be difficult to resist, not to mention his Chen Zhi's family, even if it is the family of the Zhuge family, it is not easy to block it, how can it be defeated? There must be an article in this, General, when you get to the place, leave this matter to me, and I will make sure that you are satisfied! ”

In the camp tent on the other side, Zhu Jing, the nephew who was being nagged by Zhu Shounian, was talking to a man in armor and a knife at this time.

The man in armor was very thin, although he was dressed in a military uniform, he had a feeling that it was difficult to hold up, but he made a majestic appearance, he listened to Zhu Jing's words, and said with a smile: "The virtuous nephew said so, I am relieved, I went north to Lu County this time, and I also got the approval of the above, but this Huns have been defeated, and if we continue to go north, it will inevitably give people a feeling that the name is not right and the words are not good." ”

Zhu Jing said with a smile: "General Mi, this matter is on me, I also have some friends in Lu County, their family is quite powerful in the city, and there is no shortage of officials in the county, even the palace can speak, I am sure to satisfy you, general." ”

General Na Mi stood up and said with a smile: "I believe your words, and I will leave this matter to you, I can rest assured!" ”

Zhu Jing was suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly got up to make another guarantee, and when he sat down again, a glint flashed in his eyes.

"So many people are afraid of Chen Zhi as a person with no official position and no position, it's a joke, his little reputation is not enough in front of real power, and my connections can be connected even to a powerful general like Mi Jun!"

………………

"You say I'm a Langya king, why did I come to Lu County? This Chen Zhi really doesn't stop, he can make trouble better than me, if you know, my dignified prince ran with him all the way, I don't know how he wants to feel. ”

The city gate of Luxian County has now been reopened, no longer blocked, but the people who come and go are still strictly checked, at this time in a carriage in front of the door, there is a hand lifting the curtain, looking towards the city gate, while looking at the muttering.

Beside him, a white-faced man in a brocade robe waited, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but secretly say: "When it comes to tossing, you still have the best idea." ”

Thinking in his heart, he still spoke: "Lord Wang, don't you go to find Chen Zhi first, you have to go to see King Lu and his old man first, now that the King of the East China Sea is gone, in our Qingzhou, King Lu is the oldest, you have to get close to him." ”

"Okay, I know," the young man lowered the curtain and glanced back, "but I heard that King Lu has little authority, and his blood is far away, so he doesn't have any influence in the court?" ”

The white-faced man shook his head and said meaningfully: "This has lived for a long time, it is an advantage in itself, King Lu has friends all over the world, and he can't hide any news, you are close to him, you must be right!" ”

The young man nodded, and then said, "But I'm more looking forward to meeting Chen Zhi, I don't know what his expression will be when he knows my identity." ”
