Cui Hongsheng didn't dare to provoke the command, but with his position in the military, he couldn't ask the commander of the Navy Division to ask for help from Hu'er and Zhou Fashang without authorization, which was a move to overstep the level and power, illegal, and forbidden by the military law, so he had no choice but to ask Cui Junsu for help.

There are two Cui clans in Middle Earth, Qinghe Cui and Boling Cui, both of which are Shandong-level giants. In the battle for the imperial throne in the last years of the emperor's reign, the Qinghe Cui clan was the "princeling" and supported the crown prince Yang Yong, while the Boling Cui clan supported the Qin king Yang Jun, but these two princes failed one after another, and the Cui family also suffered. The Han king Yang Liang rebelled, and the holy lord had to compromise with the Shandong people in order to keep the throne, and the Cui family was able to make a comeback. From the perspective of Cui's thousand-year-old history, the cooperation between the two families is greater than the struggle, and the cooperation is two benefits and two injuries, which is an eternal truth. From the perspective of today's political situation in China and Turkey, the contradictions between the Guanlong people and the Shandong people have intensified, and conflicts are everywhere.

Cui Hongsheng is from the Boling Cui family, and Cui Junsu is from the Qinghe Cui family, the two are of the same age, and their personal relationship is not bad, they have similar political views to each other, and they have a clear understanding of the crisis faced by the Cui family. In this Eastern Crusade, Cui Hongsheng led the troops in the 6th Route Army, and Cui Junsu assisted in the Water Division, it seems that Cui's strength in the military is quite strong, but in fact, both families know in their hearts that Cui's strength in the military is weakening sharply and becoming increasingly marginalized. According to this, Cui Hongsheng believes that in terms of the current situation in the Eastern Expedition and the unfavorable situation of the sailors, Cui Junsu should give himself help, and Lai Hu'er and Zhou Fashang will not miss any opportunity to redeem their merits, as long as their merits and demerits are offset, they can redeem themselves.

After Cui Junsu received Cui Hongsheng's letter asking for help, he really wanted to try his best to help Cui Hongsheng, but he, like Cui Hongsheng, was a passer-by in Weifu, and he came to make meritorious contributions during the war The truth is actually far bloodier than they imagined.

For example, the death of the famous Middle-earth general Shi Wansui is a typical example, the old Yue Gong Yang Su stood behind him, quietly stabbing and stabbing fatally. Of course, this matter is nominally derived from the two of them fighting for merit, in fact, it was the prince Yang Yong was deposed, when the holy lord of the King of Jin hit the critical moment of the throne of the prince, but the Han King Yang Liang, who held a heavy army in the Jin Dynasty, also had the heart to compete for the imperial unity, and Shi Wansui was in the Northern Expedition to the Turkic War that year, assisted the Han King Yang Liang to fight a big victory, and the King of Jin and Yang Su, who also participated in the war, did not build an inch, and as a result, Shi Wansui was very unfortunate to fall into the battle for the imperial system, and things immediately changed qualitatively, and it became Shi Wansui to compete with the King of Jin. To hinder the King of Jin from attacking the throne of the prince, isn't this looking for death? The result can be imagined, a generation of celebrities will be beaten to death by the first emperor in the court, and the first emperor still does not understand his hatred, and he will never be rehabilitated for fabricating charges, so as to kill chickens and monkeys and pave the way for the king of Jin to win the crown prince.

Yang Su is a Heluo nobleman, Shi Wansui is a Guanzhong nobleman, both are famous generals in Guanlong, both are heroes of the unification of Middle Earth, their prestige in the army is very high, and they have fought side by side many times to kill the enemy hand in hand, it stands to reason that there are more or less some life and death feelings between the two, and the friendship of robes, but once they stick to the government, people will change, become ruthless, bloody and cruel, and killing Pao Ze is like killing a dog.

In Cui Junsu's view, the blackest heart should be the person who plays politics, but he despises the old army of Weifu, and the old army who plays politics is not only black-hearted, but also bloody. The first battle of Pyongyang is a living example, Lai Hu'er directly slaughtered nearly 40,000 sailors for the sake of political interests, but Lai Hu'er did not bear the notoriety alone, he pulled Zhou Fashang and Cui Junsu together, and the three of them carried the notoriety together. I don't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me, that's the case, there is no way, but it is not a glorious thing to defeat the battle and carry the notoriety after all, if you have the opportunity to redeem yourself, of course, you will have to redeem yourself.

However, when Cui Junsu found Zhou Fashang and talked about Cui Hongsheng's request for help, he was poured cold water on Zhou Fashang's head.

Zhou Fashang refused.

With a hint of illusion, Cui Junsu relayed Cui Hongsheng's analysis and deduction of the current battle situation in Pyongyang, and determined that the 6th Route Army of the Expedition had great risks in the process of retreating, and the safety of the Sashui Passage directly determined the life and death of the 300,000 expeditionary soldiers, so the sailor had the responsibility and obligation to provide assistance.

Zhou Fashang sneered and asked Cui Junsu, "The two armies are facing each other, you have more experience than so-and-so?" In the first battle of Pyongyang, who commanded the sailors, you don't know? What is your purpose? Is it to support Huangtai Gong (Cui Hongsheng), or to provoke the fight between Guan Long and Jiangzuo? ”

Cui Junsu opened his mouth and was embarrassed.

With Zhou Fashang's military strategy and combat experience, his analysis and deduction of the current battle situation in Pyongyang is of course better than Cui Hongsheng, and of course he knows the importance of the Sashui channel, but the question is, whose command does the sailor listen to? In the first war of Pyongyang, was it mainly military or political? Will this battle be led by the Holy Lord and the Central, or will it be controlled by the military?

It is clear at a glance, with the political experience of Cui Hongsheng and Cui Junsu, of course, they know it, so Zhou Fashang has reason to suspect that Cui's intentions are ill-intentioned, and there is reason to suspect that the Shandong people intend to intensify the contradictions between the Guanlong people and the Jiangzuo people, and try to provoke a fight between the two in order to benefit the fisherman, so Zhou Fashang was angry. The war situation has reached such a dangerous point, the expeditionary force is in danger of annihilation, you Shandong people don't want to think about how to turn the tide, but take advantage of the fire to rob and fall into the well, isn't it too shameless?

Seeing Cui Junsu's embarrassed look, Zhou Fashang was worried that the contradiction would intensify, so he held back his anger and eased his tone slightly, "With Huang Taigong (Cui Hongsheng)'s meager strength, it is indeed very difficult to defend Sashui, if you are interested in supporting, you can provide him with some necessary materials." ”

Seeing Zhou Fashang's "sanctimoniousness", but in fact, he was completely indifferent to the life and death of the expeditionary force, Cui Junsu couldn't help but be angry, and his face gradually became ugly. Cui Hongsheng didn't want materials, but the support of the sailors, and it was obvious that those materials couldn't solve any problems.

"Huang Taigong begged for the support of the sailor, and begged the sailor to enter the Sashui inland river to protect the safety of the Sashui channel." Cui Junsu pointed to his chest, and his voice was fierce, "If there is the slightest selfishness between this matter and Huang Taigong, he will be punished by God." ”

Zhou Fashang's eyes showed disdain, he sneered, and his anger exploded uncontrollably, "Does the sailor want to obey Huang Taigong's dispatch?" Don't you know that whether the sailor leaves the coastal waters of Pyongyang or enters the inland waterway of Sasu, he needs the order of Yeonju Gong (Yu Zhongwen), and the sailor cannot act without authorization

Cui Junsu was furious, he had seen shameless, he had never seen such shameless, it was because of his unauthorized actions that the sailor led the defeat of Pyongyang, and only then did he push the expeditionary 6th Route Army into a dangerous situation, and now Zhou Fashang actually denied it, and even his face was so bad that he used the fact that the sailor could not act without authorization as a reason for refusing to support Cui Hongsheng

Cui Junsu was so angry that his face was red, and he really wanted to yell at Zhou Fashang, do you want to be embarrassed?

Cui Junsu held back. Speaking of which, Zhou Fashang was against the unauthorized actions of the sailors, and the defeat of Pyongyang was the responsibility of Laihu'er, but they were all Jiangzuo people, they were all cronies of the Holy Lord, and they were all members of an interest group, no matter what Zhou Fashang's personal thoughts were, in the end he had to succumb to the interests of the group, so Zhou Fashang also bore unshirkable responsibility for the defeat in Pyongyang. Now Laihu'er shrank his head, became a turtle, imprisoned himself, waited for the punishment of the Holy Lord, and threw the sailor to Zhou Fashang, and Zhou Fashang monopolized the power, immediately "changed his face", and obeyed the orders of the command in every move. If this was born before the attack on Pyongyang, it would be a good thing, but if it was born after the defeat of Pyongyang, it would be absurd, very absurd.

Zhou Fashang couldn't help but feel a little proud when he saw Cui Junsu swallowing his anger and being helpless. What about your Shandong giants? What about your noble birth? Even if you're a dragon, you're going to have to hover at my feet now. wanted the sailor to support Cui Hongsheng and defend the retreat for the arrogant Guanlong people, but there was no door. Now those Guanlong people are probably happily planning how to fall into the well, put me and Rong Gong to death, and then take the opportunity to seize the control of the water master. Don't even think about it, what about the defeat of Pyongyang? As long as Rong Gong and I keep the secret of the Holy Lord's secret edict, the Holy Lord will definitely protect us, and if the Guanlong people suffer the same defeat as us on the battlefield of Pyongyang, then the matter will be turned upside down, and it will definitely not be us who will be severely punished in the end, but those Guanlong people.

Cui Junsu stared at Zhou Fashang's eyes and asked word by word, "If the Duke of Yanshou (Yu Zhongwen) ordered the sailor to enter the Sashui River, would Duke Qiao obey?" ”

Zhou Fashang's expression was slightly sluggish. If the Guanlong people want to put Hu'er and themselves to death, they must first ensure their own safety and ensure that the 300,000 army can safely withdraw to Liaodong, so that even if Yu Zhongwen hates the sailor, he has to endure for a while, and at this critical moment, if the Guanlong people can pull the Shandong people and the two sides join forces to fight the Jiangzuo people, it will be more certain. That is to say, if Cui Hongsheng persuaded Yu Zhongwen and ordered the commander to dispatch the water division to defend the water channel, then the water division would be in a dilemma, and helping Cui Hongsheng to defend the water channel would be equivalent to helping the Guanlong people fight themselves, on the contrary, if they did not obey the order, it would be equivalent to giving the Guanlong people a handle to fight themselves, and what was even stricter was that if the water division did not obey the 6th Route Army because of the resistance to the order, it suffered heavy losses in the process of retreating, then the water division would be guilty of adding to the crime.

Shameless Shandong, despicable Cui. Zhou Fashang couldn't help but want to curse, Cui's was so shameless, he actually played a black hand behind his back at a critical moment, he had to provoke the fight between Guan Long and Jiangzuo, and he had to profit from it.

Zhou Fashang decided to compromise, at the moment his biggest enemy is the Guanlong people, and the Shandong people are the objects that can be wooed, once the Cui family is in favor of the Cui family and wins the cooperation of the Cui family, then with the joint power of the Jiangzuo people and the Shandong people, even if they can't resist the "attack" of the Guanlong people, they will not be powerless to fight back.

"Whether or not a certain person obeys the order of the Lord of Yanshou and enters the Sashui River depends on two conditions." Zhou Fashang replied, "First of all, is the Goguryeo sailor like a shadow, if the Goguryeo sailor always keeps us on the left and right and firmly restrains us, do you think it is possible for us to ignore the enemy around us, rush headlong into Sashui, and let the Goguryeo sailor surround us in the inland river?" Once we are trapped in the river, the sailors are in danger of being annihilated. Secondly, the head of the water division is Rong Gong (to protect the child), Rong Gong is the supreme commander of the water division, the final decision-maker, and the holy lord is to give him the power to deal with the opportunity, so what the water master should do, how to do it, it is not you and I have the final say, but Rong Gong has the final say, if Rong Gong does not agree to enter the Sashui River, there is nothing to be done

The old treacherous is slippery. In the face of the impeccable Zhou Fashang, Cui Junsu was at a loss, although he also had a vote in the decision-making of the water division, but as long as Zhou Fashang joined forces with Lai Hu'er, his vote was meaningless.

"In this way, the sailor is here to sit idly by, turning a deaf ear to the danger of the satination of Sashui, and turning a blind eye to the life and death of the 300,000 expeditionary soldiers?" Cui Junsu asked.

Zhou Fashang thought for a moment and said, "The sailor can slowly approach in the direction of the Sashui estuary, but not too close, so as not to make the Goguryeo sailor make a wrong judgment and attack in order to prevent us from supporting the Sashui Inland River." With the current low morale of our sailors, once the two sides fight, we may suffer another defeat, and the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

Zhou Fashang relented. Cui Junsu breathed a sigh of relief. Although the proximity of the naval division to the mouth of the Sashui estuary does not guarantee the safety of the Sashui passage, but at least it is close to the Sashui inland river, once the 6th Route Army is blocked by the Sashui in the process of retreat, the two sides can get in touch in the shortest possible time, and the naval division can immediately rush into the Sashui inland river to support, with the advantage of warships, it is definitely not a problem to save some more people.

Obviously, Zhou Fa still had selfish intentions and made two preparations. If the 6th Route Army retreats along the way, he does not need to risk entering the Sashui Inland River, on the contrary, if the 6th Route Army is blocked in its retreat and loses the battle, it will be valuable for him to venture into the Sashui Inland River to support, he can make meritorious contributions, and he can make meritorious contributions, and he also pulled Cui Hongsheng at a critical moment, strengthened the cooperation with the Cui family, and ensured that Cui Junsu would not reveal the secret of the Holy Lord's secret edict because of his break with the Jiangzuo people.

Soon, Cui Hongsheng received a reply from Cui Junsu, and several boatloads of supplies sent by the sailors arrived at the barracks at the same time, but Cui Hongsheng was very disappointed, his mood was very low, and he was even more anxious about the reaction of the front-line command.

The high command did not respond, either to the disastrous defeat of Pyongyang by the sailors who came to Hu'er, or to the Sashui crisis reported by Choi Hongsheng.

If something goes wrong, it is a demon, and there must be a problem with the front-line command.

In the face of the "political conspiracy" exposed behind the defeat of the naval division in Pyongyang, the "conspiracy" set up by the Holy Lord and the central government directly against the military can be imagined. As for Zhongwen and the commanders of the armies, down to the commanders of the eagles, they were all "fried".

What does this mean? The Holy Lord and the Nexus no longer trust the military except for the Marine? The Holy Lord and the Central Committee want to put all the responsibility for the defeat of the Eastern Crusade on the military? The Holy Lord and the Center want to use this defeat to attack the military, eradicate dissidents, and then further concentrate military power?

The attack in the early stage of the Eastern Crusade was unfavorable and failed to achieve the expected goals, which had nothing to do with the military. The reason why the expeditionary force stayed under the city of Liaodong for three months was because of the mistake of the decision of the Holy Lord and the center, and if it were not for the fact that the Holy Lord and the center insisted on using diplomatic means to achieve the goal of the Eastern Crusade and had to negotiate with the Goguryeo people, the Eastern Expedition would not have fallen into the passive situation it is today.

However, there is an undeniable fact that precisely because of the unfavorable period of the Eastern Crusade, the contradictions between the Holy Lord, the Central Committee and the military intensified, and the wrong implementation of Duan Wenzhen's legacy at the wrong time further escalated the conflict between the two sides. It can be foreseen from this that if Duan Wenzhen's strategy succeeds and the expeditionary force captures Pyongyang and destroys Goguryeo with a devastating force, then the military will obviously be the victor in politics, and the competition for military power between the two sides will be more intense, and the military can rely on its victory in politics to repel the further concentration of military power by the Holy Lord and the center.

This is obviously a result that the Holy Lord and the Central Center do not want to see, so in the eyes of the military, Laihu'er and Zhou Fashang commanded the naval division to attack Pyongyang in advance, it must be because they received the edict of the Holy Lord, and they wanted to set up obstacles for the military to capture Pyongyang, so as to force the expeditionary force to return in vain, so the responsibility for the failure of the Eastern Crusade is the military's. It was unbearable or unbearable, and the Holy Lord and the Central Committee attacked the military with such despicable means, disregarding the safety of 300,000 expeditionary soldiers, which was really the anger of people and gods, and completely angered the military.

The commanders of all the armies gathered, filled with righteous indignation, and unanimously demanded that the high command exercise the power of immediate disposal, immediately evacuate, and return to Liaodong.

Of course, Yu Zhongwen agreed, but Yuwenshu disagreed, and Liu Shilong also resolutely opposed, and as a result, the two of them were violently "bombarded" by the commanders of the armies.

Xin Shixiong, the general of the Right Guard, and Zhang Jin, the general of the Right Imperial Guard, asked the two, before the army came out, did you already know that the Holy Lord and the Central Privy Counsellor had proposed to attack Pyongyang?

Yu Wenshu knew, but he flatly denied it, even if he was killed at this moment, he would not reveal this big secret. Liu Shilong really didn't know, so he denied it justifiably, and he warned the commanders of the armies, you must not be impulsive, if you don't retreat without a fight, your guilt will be worse than the defeat of Pyongyang by the sailors.

There are many reasons for the naval division to attack Pyongyang in advance, such as suffering heavy losses in the process of crossing the sea, and there is a shortage of food and fresh water, so they have to take the initiative to attack after arriving in Pyongyang to feed the war; Or because the Goguryeo people took the initiative to attack, they had to passively respond to the battle, but they misjudged the battle situation, so that they suffered heavy setbacks, and so on, all in all, the sailors were independent and trusted by the Holy Lord, as long as Lai Hu'er and Zhou Fashang found an excuse for defeat, the Holy Lord and the Central Commander would definitely protect them, but Yu Zhongwen and the Ninth Route Army under his command did not have such "treatment", and 300,000 horses arrived under the city of Pyongyang and retreated without a fight, which in itself was a challenge to the Holy Lord and the central authority, which could not be tolerated or forgiven.

The commanders of the armies barely calmed down, and although they no longer insisted on an immediate retreat, they did not have the will to attack Pyongyang.

Yuwen Shujian yì, anyway, it's all here, although the attack time is very limited, but you can still fight a dozen, it's better to show your might, kill the Quartet, kill the blood like a river, the head is rolling, the evil breath is exported, and then leave.

No one paid attention to him, and just treated him as air.

Liu Shilong came up with a compromise and negotiated, negotiating with the Goguryeos. Didn't the Goguryeo people always have to negotiate to delay the attack of our army? Now that we are under the city of Pyongyang, we can talk, and as they wish, we force them to sign an alliance under the city, which will be regarded as the result of the battle, and then we will leave decisively. As for whether the Goguryeo people will recognize this alliance under the city next, it has nothing to do with the military, that is a matter for the holy lord and the center to consider, but once the Goguryeo people really recognize this alliance under the city, even if the military gets the credit, it will not be in vain.

After weighing it repeatedly, Yu Zhongwen and the commanders of the various armies accepted Liu Shilong's proposal, and immediately stopped the attack thirty miles away from Pyongyang, and the two sides began to negotiate.

Since there was a decision, and this decision had nothing to do with the sailor's dime, the command, of course, ignored the sailor and ignored it directly. As for the Sa water crisis reported by Cui Hongsheng, no one cares, I have an army of 300,000, even if the Goguryeo people dig a dam to release water, what if they artificially create a flood? Can the flood still rage for ten days and a half months? Could it be that the Goguryeo people, who are not strong, can still force our expeditionary force to break the cauldron and fight against the water
