There was a buzz in the camps of both sides.

These surprised voices of discussion hit Yang Biao's conscience and ear drums like stormy waves. He only felt that his scalp was numb for a while, and his whole body was like countless ants crawling, and he was sweating unknowingly. However, he gritted his back molars and suppressed the emptiness in his heart.

He replied loudly, "Not bad." Yang Biao promised the late general back then, and now he has not broken his promise. Yang Biao is still faithfully guarding His Majesty's safety. The reason why you can't get Yang Biao's escort is because you are an accomplice to the traitorous prince, and a thief who has the audacity to pretend to be the emperor! ”

Liu Shen stretched out his hand to stop the discussion in the array between the two sides.

He said, "Yang Biao." Don't be in a hurry to plead. Let's listen to what the general said later. ”

So, the Quartet was quiet again, and everyone listened to Liu Shen continue to read.

What you wrote in the second half of the letter surprised everyone present.

Because, you wrote, after your death, after the establishment of the Taiping New Dynasty, after more than 20 years of operation, it will definitely be peaceful in the four seas, and the sword will not be able to afford it. At this time, maintaining a large combat army will not only make the neighbors uneasy, but also easily breed the delusion of starting another war and expanding the territory, and will also consume huge social wealth for no reason. Under such circumstances, there will certainly be wise courtiers who will see the drawbacks and courageously come out to admonish and gradually disarm. You suggest that Liu Shen seriously consider the minister's suggestion, dismantle the Han army in a timely manner, shift from pursuing the huge size of the Han army to pursuing the elite of the Han army, and shift from paying attention to the building of the Han army's actual combat capability to the building of the Han army's powerful deterrent force.

Then, you also predicted that once this proposal is put forward, it will inevitably trigger widespread controversy between the government and the opposition. Some of the generals of the Han army must be resolutely opposed. You bluntly commented that the generals of the Han army who opposed this proposal partly forgot the purpose of the Han army, which was built to prevent the people of the world from using the wealth of genius to kill and destroy each other, and to use it for peaceful coexistence and common prosperity. To this part of the generals, you said that when Your Majesty faces them in the future, you may wish to read to them what I have written today. When they heard these words, it was as if I were still alive, standing opposite them, and talking to them.

You said, I hope you will understand that when a person is seriously ill, he needs to take strong medicine, and when he recovers, taking strong medicine will no longer improve his health, but will damage his health. When the world is in turmoil, a strong Han army is needed to open the prelude to peace, but if it is stable today, continuing to maintain a strong Han army is equivalent to continuing to feed healthy people without disease to take strong medicine, which is unwise.

You said that since the founding of the army, the task of the Han army has always been to destroy the enemies of Taiping. When you yourself have the potential to become an enemy of the Peace, you will not hesitate to destroy yourself. In fact, in order to avoid having a second person to compete with Liu Shen's brilliance after the establishment of the new dynasty, you have decided to eliminate yourself in the final battle on the northern front, so that the new dynasty can rest assured and the people of the world can rest assured. You have set such an example. Therefore, after your death, in the era that you can't see, if the Han army itself has also become a hidden danger to the peace, then you hope that all the soldiers will plan for the well-being of the people of the world, for the sake of all the brothers who died in that era, and that the strong men will break their wrists, obey the emperor's will, and resolutely support disarmament.

You said, peace has been long, do you still remember that the duty of a soldier is to sacrifice bravely for the well-being of the people of the world. Compared with the war years, what needs to be sacrificed in disarmament is not everyone's life, but just a little fame and fortune. You have a sentence, I want to ask everyone from another world across the gap of time: Since when did our brave and fearless Han army become unwilling to sacrifice even if it is a small profit?

As Liu Shen read aloud, the entire field became silent. Thousands of horses were in unison, and the voices of the people were silent, only the sound of the wind whistling above the barracks, and the flags rolling in the wind, making a crackling sound.

Liu Shen read your last words, and he burst into tears uncontrollably. Many Han soldiers who listened also couldn't help but burst into tears.

That's what you, in the last moments of your young life, are thinking about.

What is happening today, you already knew it at that time, and you accurately foresaw it. You knew that there would be a day when the Han army would split into two opposing parts, standing behind and opposite Liu Shen, and behind and opposite Taiping. You have long written your final mobilization and final military order for the Han army for this day.

Yang Biao and Zhou Daiyue stood behind the fake emperor, listening to your generous words before you died, the color of their faces changed from time to time, sometimes red, sometimes pale.

However, what shocked them even more was yet to come.

Liu Shen suppressed the choking of his voice, calmed down his excitement, and continued to read the last part of your letter.

In this last part, you accurately predicted that Yang Biao would oppose disarmament, eventually launch a rebellion, and rely on mysteries and covert operations to trick the Han army into following him, and use covert raids to achieve initial victories. You prophesied that Yang Biao would be silent before he decided to rebel, and then ask the face to test whether the holy will was unswerving, and then set a trap to the detriment of Liu Shen.

So, you gave Liu Shen three pieces of advice:

First, when Yang Biao asked for an interview after he fell silent, he should be given the opportunity to meet and make his statement. Although Yang Biao rebelled after a long time, his talent was still available, and the King of Han might as well abolish his people and not his words. In the process of making statements, all of Yang Biao's requests were kindly granted by King Han in order to reassure him.

Second, if Yang Biao asked the King of Han to personally parade for the last time to appease the Han soldiers, the King of Han would never go to him in person, so as not to be kidnapped and kidnapped. You suggest Liu Shen, don't show courage at this time, if you don't enter the barracks, the rebels and others will not be able to commit the unforgivable felony of killing the king and offending the king, and the available people among them will still have a chance to rein in the precipice, wake up at the last moment, change their ways, make meritorious contributions, give themselves a way out, and give the innocent people who have been implicated a way out. If you enter the barracks in order to show the fearlessness and bravery of the emperor, you are not afraid of 10,000, but you are only afraid of what happens, if there is a mistake, not only the country is in danger, but also the soldiers of the Han army who participated in it will never recover, and there is no turning back.

Third, you recommend Chen Shouye as the first choice for leading the counterinsurgency. If Chen Shouye was not there at that time, Sun Zhanming would be recommended, and Sun Zhanming would not be there, so Wu Renming would be recommended, and Wu Renming would not be there, Fu Tianliang would be recommended. You said that the characteristics of the four generals were compatible with Yang Biao's fierceness, and they were suitable for fighting with Yang Biao's personal troops, and they could restrain the fierce attacks of Yang Biao's troops, so that Yang Biao could not win in a short time, and because Yang Biao's rebellion was unpopular, time was favorable to the King of Han. As long as Yang Biao can't win the battle, he will definitely lose. (To be continued.) )
