After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Chen Jiongming couldn't help but burp and pretended to be unintentional and asked, "Brother Shang, you are in danger!" Yan Xishan wants to kill you! You have to be careful, be careful! ”

Shang Zhen on the side was taken aback, and couldn't help asking, "Why did Lord Chen say this?" ”

Chen Jiongming said drunkenly: "The battle of Wutai obviously defeated Feng Yuxiang's main force in one fell swoop and rescued the danger of Shanxi, but you lost Wutai." Kong Geng has already secretly played your crime of collaborating with the enemy. Now everyone in Taiyuan City is suspicious of you, there is a way that three people become tigers, where is Yan Xishan......" When he said this, Chen Jiongming burped again, fell on the table with a pop, and fell asleep.

Shang Zhen looked at Chen Jiongming, who was sleeping soundly, and unconsciously fell into deep thought, the loss of Wutai this time was really shocking to the world, especially Feng Yuxiang's wanton looting and destruction of Wutai and Dingxiang, and someone had to come out and be responsible. Can Kong Geng know everything that happened in Wutai? With his relationship with Yan Xishan's open and secret fight, if he didn't have Yan Xishan's warrant in his hand, how could he easily retreat from Wutai? Aren't you afraid that Yan Xishan will settle accounts after the autumn and use his head to appease the local people? Even if he has Yan Xishan's warrant in his hand, with Yan Xishan's means, he can make this real warrant fake, and Kong Geng is afraid that Kong Geng knows this, so he will strike first, and use his relationship with Feng Yuxiang as a breakthrough to throw the black pot of Wutai's withdrawal over, don't look at him, Shang Zhen can be regarded as Yan Xishan's confidant and favorite general in the eyes of the world, and it is another matter when it comes to political future. As for whether Yan Xishan will use his head to appease the people of northern Jin, only God knows!

At this time, Chen Jiongming was sleeping soundly on the side, only unintentionally opened his eyes, and glanced at it with his bright eyes, seeing Shang Zhen's worry, he was relieved, he closed his eyes again randomly, made a whirring sound, and from time to time said a few words in a dream that no one could understand, and fully interpreted the naΓ―ve state after being full of wine and food!

Shang Zhen looked at him with such a naΓ―ve look, and said with a wry smile: "You slept well, everything happened in one sleep." Kong Geng, the old fox, is only afraid that he will oversee the army, then I will open the knife, collect the military power in Shanxi, and use the power to fight against Feng Yuxiang, or divide the court to resist the court, or replace it, no matter what, the trend of Chang ruling and dominating the world has taken a big step forward, you are so lucky, you have become the dignitary of the new dynasty, and you have become the guest of the Yan Governor's army, it is really enviable! ”

The relationship between Chang Zhenbang and Chen Jiongming, he also heard a little, and he saw it with his own eyes in Shimen that day, and he really had the feeling of meeting the monarchs and ministers as mentioned in the commentary, especially after Chen Jiongming was almost wiped out by the Feng Department in Chahar, Chang Zhenbang still vigorously explored, and after finding it, not only did he not blame the past, but he was still entrusted with important tasks, and this alone made him feel deeply, thinking that Yan Xishan and himself seemed to agree with him like this, and put his heart in his heart, when he led the army to the south to rebel, two lakes and a battle, and lost his troops and generals, Yan Xishan seems to be so unblamed in the past, and still entrusts him with important tasks, if it weren't for this, he Shang Zhen would not be so desperate to saddle up the army of Yan and work hard, isn't it just to sell this kind of blood to people who know the goods?

"I don't live up to Yan Overseer, and Yan Overseer will naturally not fail me!"

Shang Zhen told himself like this, his face gradually returned to a trace of blood, who knew that before he threw the sorrow in his head out of the clouds, Chen Jiongming on the side said with a big grin: "Comrade Yan, Shang Zhen can't kill, can't ......"

This intermittent sentence was like a fierce stick that completely knocked Shang Zhen to the ground at once, and Cai Rongshou's figure appeared in his mind.

At that time, Wu Peifu and Chang Zhenbang fought a fair fight in Central China, Feng Department Zhang Zuolin took the opportunity to send troops to Shanhaiguan, wanting to annex the direct line of the greatly injured vitality, seize the power of the central government, and divide Suiyuan equally, Zhili as bait, instigated Yan Xishan to send troops, who would have thought that Wu Peifu suffered a little loss when he confronted the southeast, but it does not mean that Zhang Zuolin, a birdman like Yan Xishan can ride on his head and, after learning the news that Zhang Zuolin entered the customs and declared war, Wu Peifu immediately shook hands with Chang Zhenbang and said that he would divide Central China peacefully, and then returned to the north, drove Zhang Zuolin's tens of thousands of Northeast Army back to the Northeast.

As for Shanxi, only a lone brigade of Fan Zhongxiu was sent deep into Shanxi, and Lian Jie conquered Liao County, which greatly deterred Yan Xishan's impatient heart, so that Yan Laoxi had to express his stance that Shanxi resolutely supported the central government and supported the great and righteous Cao Sanye. And Cai Rongshou lost the battle, lost Liao County, and was executed by Yan Xishan on the charge of losing his teacher and land, this Cai Rongshou and Shang Zhen have a deep relationship, and it can almost be said that Shang Zhen brought out the younger brother after entering Shanxi, and his death also left a very deep impression on Shang Zhen. As Cai Rongshou's old chief and brother, Yu Gong, private, emotional, and reasonable, Shang Zhen also had to stand up and ask Yan Xishan why. Yan Xishan said: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, Cai Rongshou lost his division and lost his land, but the crime is not to death, but Shanxi needs to give Wu Peifu an explanation, and also needs to give a warning to the officers and soldiers in the province, fighting is to die, but you can't get by like the children of the Eight Banners, you must work hard!" Therefore, Cai Rongshou must die, and only his death can play a role in setting an example! This is politics, and I can't help it, but don't worry, I've arranged for this person to be buried and the family will be compassionate about it. ”

This answer undoubtedly made Shang Zhen's feelings for Yan Xishan appear a crack, and now the old things came back to his heart, and his heart continued to sink, as if falling into the vast Arctic ice sea. No one understands better than him how heavy the weight of politics in Yan Xishan's heart is and how much effort Yan Xishan has put in to run Shanxi well, in order not to give up his previous achievements, he Shang Zhen even if he is Yan Xishan's own son, at this time he has to hand over an explanation to the fathers and elders in northern Shanxi, and the best explanation is tantamount to tears and slashing horses, I believe that after his head turns around in the counties of northern Shanxi, the people's grievances against Taiyuan in northern Shanxi will disappear without a trace, and the officials and people are all happy.

It's just that Shang Zhen is unwilling to give away his head so easily, a good man is from the army to defend the country, how can he die in the conspiracy of being an official? However, Yan Dujun really pushed his clothes, pushed food, and carried his kindness, and the weight of his expectations was definitely beyond the comparison of ordinary Shanxi generals, if he was greedy for life and afraid of death, wouldn't he live up to Yan Xishan's kindness? Besides, this is just his own groundless conjecture, and Yan Overseer may not be so ruthless.

It may not be so ruthless, but in fact, it is more than that! Over the years, he has not been uncommon in Shanxi, Cai Rongshou is not a case, how can he Shang Zhen stay out of the matter? If the deep friendship of Yan Overseer is just to use himself as a pawn, no matter how deep the friendship is, it is just acting, and in the final analysis, it is still the matter of his own net worth and life.

Shang Zhen, who was immersed in the entanglement, unconsciously forgot the time, Chen Jiongming saw that the time was almost up, and it would be a waste of time to stay any longer, looking at Shang Zhen's increasingly pale face, you could know how serious the anxiety in his heart was.

"General Shang, I'm sorry, Chen is too strong to drink, gaffe, gaffe, atonement, atonement!" Chen Jiongming hit a hatcher and said very ashamedly.

Shang Zhenqiang smiled and said: "Lord Chen, this is what you said there, your lord is willing to drink well here in the lowly position, and he has already given enough face to the lowly position." Where do you dare to blame the adult? ”

Chen Jiongming smiled, but looked around very cautiously, and saw that there were no idle people around, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I didn't say anything that shouldn't be said just now, right?" ”

Shang Zhen said: "The adults sleep very soundly and calmly. ”

When Chen Jiongming heard him say this, he said very heartily: "That's good, that's good, if Chen says something that shouldn't be said, it will be bad for Shanxi to lose harmony and hurt the relationship between Shanxi and the central government." ”

Shang Zhen was shocked when he heard this, and the words in his mouth were about to lose harmony, could it be that he and Yan Xishan could not succeed? It seems that this matter is already quite serious, and I have to think of a way out as soon as possible.

Chen Jiongming saw that his complexion darkened, and said quietly: "General Shang's face is not very good?" ”

Shang Zhen was afraid that he would see something, so he hurriedly defended: "Thank you for your concern, the weather is cold for nine days, and it is inevitably a little pale, please rest assured." ”

Chen Jiongming nodded lightly and didn't say anything, but there was an indifferent look on his face, it seemed that it didn't matter if the other party's health was good or not, such an expression made Shang Zhen feel even heavier!

Shang Zhen, who was very entangled, finally couldn't help the torment in his heart, subconsciously grabbed Chen Jiongming's arm, and said, "Lord Chen, I don't know what you think about the failure of the Battle of Wutai?" ”

"Opinion?" Chen Jiongming smiled mysteriously and said: "What the central government wants is for the people of Shanxi to live and work in peace and contentment, and what Chang Zheng wants is for Feng to give the head of the nine sides, as for the specific war, I am afraid that the opinion of Yan Dujun is the key to the problem." ”

Shang Zhen said: "What Lord Chen said is very true, but the collapse of Wutai is not accidental, and the brothers really have some unavoidable hardships." If Yan Dujun blames him, I hope Lord Chen will be able to say a good word or two! ”

Chen Jiongming smiled and said, "Is there a victorious general in the world?" There are victories and defeats in wars, and if my brother can't even see this, wouldn't he be a manly man in vain? The big deal is that where there is defeat, stand up, and where there is defeat, there is victory. ”

If he sent troops to fight Wutai back, if he could defeat Feng Yuxiang in one fell swoop, Yan Xishan would blame him in the future, but he couldn't say why, thinking of this, he was very excited and said: "The lesson of the adult is very good!" Humble duties are really like an initiation. ”
