Chapter 172: Appointing a King with a Heavy Burden (I)
PS: Double more, in addition, thank you for the support of book friends Ziyang Snail 110 and Fuyun Bar!
Ye Yingwu dismounted in front of the door, Lu Xiufu and Wen Tianxiang waited at the door left and right, saw Ye Yingwu coming, hurriedly greeted him, Wen Tianxiang said with a smile: "Envoy, the two subordinates have been waiting here for a long time, the envoy is so interested, just got married, he went straight to Tongshan County, so diligent in government affairs is really embarrassing for the two subordinates." ”
Wen Tianxiang didn't mention the "big wedding", but when he mentioned Ye Yingwu, he suddenly sighed helplessly in his heart, he did have a place where he couldn't live with Lu Wanyan, the two of them were just the second day of marriage, and they hurried to Tongshan County, so they couldn't say anything. What's more, now his eldest brother Lu Xiufu is standing here, so that Ye Yingwu has the face to meet him.
It's just that Lu Xiufu didn't seem to want to settle accounts except for his face being a little gloomy, and silently followed behind Wen Tianxiang without saying a word.
Ye Yingwu said softly: "Senior brother, there is no need to say that, I went to Tongshan County, mainly because a firearm has been successfully developed, if this firearm can be quickly installed in the Tianwu Army, this time there will be at least three or four more chances of winning in the north." ”
"Three or four percent odds?" Wen Tianxiang was stunned, and subconsciously looked at Lu Xiufu behind him, Ye Yingwu looked confident no matter when, so the Tianwu army never suspected that under the leadership of their Ye Yuanjun, Ah Shu would be beaten and abandoned, and now Ye Yingwu said it himself, the odds of winning are just more than "three or four percent", so in Ye Yingwu's heart, what are the original odds of winning?
Ye Yingwu frowned slightly and shook his head: "If there is no such thing, a certain person thinks that the chance of winning the Tianwu Army going north this time is only two percent." ”
"Twenty percent!" Lu Xiufu blurted out in shock.
What's the difference between that and sending to death?!
"But you and I, the Tianwu Army have no choice." Ye Yingwu's gaze turned cold, and he walked straight inside, "Facing the soldiers of the country with a lone army, the odds of winning are already thankful, in order not to die in vain, I have done my best." ”
Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu were silent. The three of them walked all the way to the outside of the lobby, and Wen Tianxiang said with a wry smile: "Yuanlie, the burden on your body is very heavy, but now you can be at the front." There are tens of thousands of people in the Tianwu Army, and you are the only one who has such ability, maybe you and Junshi misunderstood you just now??????"
Ye Yingwu shook his head: "Why worry about these, now you know it in your hearts, and you will be safe when you come." Do your part and go. ”
Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu glanced at each other, but after all, they nodded solemnly, turned around and walked towards their side room. The main hall of the entire Xingzhou Zhizhou is divided into three places, and in front of it is the place where Ye Yingwu handles affairs, including the meeting hall, and on both sides are the places where Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu work.
One is Ye Yingwu's chief staff, and the other is the general judge of Xingzhou, and the status of the two in Ye Yingwu's heart can be seen from the distribution of this room alone.
Ye Yingwu walked up the steps slowly, and after breathing a sigh of relief, he pushed open the door.
in the council hall. Two old men sat upright, and two middle-aged men stood respectfully on one side, but they were holding disciple salutes. The two old men Ye Yingwu are very familiar, on the left is his father Ye Mengding, and on the other side is his mentor Jiang Wanli, and the two middle-aged men, one has had several encounters, it is Wen Tianxiang's classmate, Liu Chenweng of Tongshan Academy, and the other middle-aged man is an unknown person, and he has always been the somewhat stubborn Deng Guangjian.
Wen Tianxiang, Liu Chenweng and Deng Guangjian are the three classmates and brothers. But his personality is very different, Wen Tianxiang is open-minded and hearty, he has the world in mind since he was a child, and he has the resources of auspicious pillars; And Liu Chenweng is deep and introverted, gentle and elegant. It is very consistent with his status as a poet who is in charge of the academy; As for Deng Guangjian, standing there is not good-looking, short in body and mind, if it is placed in the crowd, it is definitely the kind that is ignored, but Ye Yingwu can feel the raging flame that has been secretly hidden in this person's heart.
Ye Yingwu is not from the appearance association, this kind of person who is not good-looking. But it can't be underestimated, after all, heroes have been born from ancient times to the present, and there are many people who are not good-looking.
Taking a breath lightly, Ye Yingwu immediately bowed his hand respectfully: "The child has seen his father, his teacher, and two senior brothers. ”
Ye Mengding and Jiang Wanli smiled slightly, they could be regarded as returning the salute as elders, and Liu Chenweng was a little restrained, after all, he was under Ye Yingwu's command, at this time, if he let the dignified Ye Yuanjun salute himself and he was indifferent, I am afraid that if it spreads, he will really die and have no place to be buried. It was Deng Guangxuan, who just squinted his eyes, but he didn't react.
"Ye Zhizhou and the contemptible people have never known each other, how do you know that the contemptible people are your senior brothers?"
Unexpectedly, the first person to speak was Deng Guangjian, who pretended not to see anything just now. However, this did not surprise Ye Yingwu, after all, Deng Guang recommended this person has always been arrogant, and this time he came to Xingzhou because of Wen Tianxiang, Liu Chenweng and his mentor Jiang Wanli, he was not very convinced by this sudden rise of Ye Yingwu, and now he naturally wanted to come out first to kill Ye Yingwu's morale.
Hearing Deng Guangjian's painless opening to make things difficult, Jiang Wanli frowned slightly, and wanted to open his mouth to scold, but was stopped by Ye Mengding with a look, opened his mouth, Jiang Wanli shook his head helplessly, this guy was like this when he was young, and now he has passed the age of establishment, but there is still no change.
Ye Yingwu smiled without hesitation: "This is naturally very simple, first, there are few people who can stand here with Senior Brother Meng to perform disciple ceremonies, and secondly, Su asked Deng Zhongfu Although his appearance is not good, but he has great ambitions, he has already guessed ten ** in his heart at a glance just now, after all, although he is not talented, but the ability to see people is also quite reputable in this acre and three points of land, of course, there is a third." ”
"Third?" Deng Guang was stunned, but then pouted coldly, the two reasons just now seemed to him to be just far-fetched, "But I don't know what Ye Zhizhou's third article is, can you tell one or two?" ”
Ye Yingwu smiled indifferently: "Why not." Senior Brother Deng's reputation has not been heard once or twice, so he simply asked people to go to your mansion to paint a portrait of Senior Brother Deng, and hung it in a certain study, looking forward to meeting one day, but it was really an honor to be in the present day. ”
Deng Guangjian was dumbfounded, he never thought that Ye Yingwu would paint his appearance. At that moment, the layer of ice in my heart cracked a crack, and it was warm.
Seeing Deng Guangjian's expression constantly changing, and even showing a smile at the end, Ye Yingwu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, you can take the portrait of your old man out of the study, and then there is one less portrait of you.
I don't know when the last brilliant talent of the Southern Song Dynasty will be able to enter my world!
Jiang Wanli was finally relieved to see that Deng Guangjian had been convinced by Ye Yingwu, but Ye Mengding beside him was still very indifferent. It seems that this is the result that has been expected for a long time. Knowing a son is like a parent, even if Ye Yingwu at this time is no longer the original Ye Yingwu, Ye Mengding can still detect something from his gestures and words and deeds.
After a moment of silence, Deng Guangjian seemed to hesitate and bowed his hand to Ye Yingwu: "The heart of making Jun Xiangcai really makes people admire and shame, and I am sorry for my rudeness and arrogance just now, please forgive me a lot." ”
Ye Yingwu waved his hand casually: "Since ancient times, talented people have often been arrogant and arrogant, so it was expected that senior brother would be like this. Don't take it personally. ”
Seeing that the two people who were still a little-for-tat just now were strangely polite, Jiang Wanli and Ye Mengding seemed to smile bitterly, and these two guys didn't know if they were sincere, or acting in front of the two old men. Politeness is politeness This time, Ye Yingwu walked to Ye Mengding's side and stood respectfully, but he didn't look at Deng Guangjian on the other side.
On the contrary, his gaze kept circling around Liu Chenweng, and Liu Chenweng was a little surprised to meet Ye Yingwu's gaze, a little unclear. Ye Yingwu looked at Liu Chenweng at this time, but it was not unintentional. Because he could detect that although Deng Guangxuan bowed his head slightly and didn't say a word, his eyes also glanced over here from time to time, and noticed that Ye Yingwu didn't look at him at all, and he was suddenly a little lost. However, he Deng Guangjian is not a jealous villain. Naturally, he had already figured out that now in Ye Yingwu's heart, he, who was still disrespectful just now, could not be compared with Liu Chenweng, who had already put Tongshan Academy up and down in order.
Now that he has decided to come here and come to the magical and energetic group of Tianwu Army, he needs to make a performance, and he can't let Ye Yingwu underestimate him.
Jiang Wanli and Ye Mengding squinted slightly. It was as if he was closing his eyes and recuperating, and no one in the entire hall spoke, and there was an awkward silence. Ye Yingwu glanced at Liu Chenweng, and Liu Chenweng immediately understood, at this time, it was Ye Yingwu and Deng Guangjian who were waiting for each other to speak, while Jiang Wanli and Ye Mengding, two people who were "disrespectful to the old", were happily watching the excitement.
As the only peacemaker, Liu Chenweng couldn't also watch it, coughed lightly at the moment, and said with a smile: "Ye Yuanjun came back from Tongshan County, but he plans to lead the army to the north in the future?" I heard that both sides of Xiangyang in the north have been swords-rattled? ”
Liu Chenweng gave the steps, and Ye Yingwu stepped on them without hesitation: "It's not just saber rattling, the scout battle between the two sides has been in full swing, and along the entire Han River, there are scouts strangling almost crazy." The front of the Tianwu Army also sent several scout teams, but they did not dare to go deeper into the north, otherwise it would be a mud bodhisattva crossing the river - it would be difficult to protect themselves. ”
Seeing that Ye Yingwu only answered the situation of the two sides in Xiangyang, and did not express his position on whether to lead the army north, Liu Chenweng just smiled slightly, and did not feel that there was anything wrong, but Deng Guang, who has always been arrogant, combined with Ye Yingwu's performance just now, had a feeling that he was being despised and immediately snorted lightly:
"When is the envoy going north? Since the scout war is in full swing, the Mongol Tatar tribes will also be dispatched soon. ”
Ye Yingwu just smiled, he felt that Jiang Wanli and Ye Mengding, who were still closing their eyes and watching the excitement just now, were also in good spirits, and their eyes were blazing. These old men are also very concerned about the survival of Xiangyang, and they are naturally very concerned about when the Tianwu Army will go north.
"Hold your ground for now." Ye Yingwu spit out six words.
A few people in the hall were subconsciously shocked and did not move? Or is it temporary? Such an ambiguous answer says nothing.
Ye Mengding was suddenly a little displeased: "How long is it temporary?" Do you just let Xiangyang fight alone? Isn't this a great song roasted on the fire? ”
Ye Yingwu said: "Qi Yu Ye Tidian (with Ye Mengding's title of prison official), Xiangyang has 150,000 soldiers stationed in the elite cantonment of my Great Song Dynasty, how can it be a lone army?" If Xiangyang is called a lone army, then is the Ezhou garrison army a lone army? ! Is the Luzhou Army alone?! And tens of thousands of people in my Tianwu Military Region, are they alone?! It's ridiculous! ”
I didn't expect Ye Yingwu to suddenly attack, and his voice was violent, Ye Mengding and Jiang Wanli were shocked, just now Ye Yingwu directly called Ye Tidian, just now it is in the hall, there is no father-son relationship, and you Ye Mengding is Jiang'an West Road to mention the prison business, a certain Ye Yingwu is the deputy envoy of the Great Song Dynasty along the river, none of us can control anyone!
Ye Yingwu scolded like this, Ye Mengding's face changed several times, but Jiang Wanli on the side hurriedly pressed his somewhat trembling hand, after all, let his son scold him so much in public, anyone would be tempted to shoot the case, but now is not the time to shoot the case, because what Ye Yingwu said just now is indeed reasonable.
With tens of thousands of people in the Tianwu Military Region to go north, it will not be able to rescue Xiangyang at all, and it is not even enough for the more than 100,000 foot cavalry army of Ashu to stuff the teeth. No matter how strong the Tianwu Army is, no matter how good the Tianwu Army is at defeating the strong with the weak, it is impossible to face the 100,000 Mongolian iron horsemen.
This is not a rescue in the north, but a death in the north!
And with Ye Mengding and Jiang Wanli's understanding of the Lu brothers, even if the Tianwu army is surrounded by the Ashu group, they will choose to defend the city and not save it, otherwise for five thousand years, they have never heard of an army attacking the city less than the army defending the city, but the army defending the city does not dare to move at all.
Ye Mengding trembled and took a sip of water from the teacup, and then sighed heavily: "Then please ask Ye Yuanjun to tell me what should be done." ”
Ye Mengding didn't intend to argue with his son a little excitedly. And Liu Chenweng and Deng Guangjian, who were also suppressed by Ye Yingwu's sudden change of attitude just now, straightened their waists and were solemn in their hearts. The momentum that Ye Yingwu suddenly burst out just now made them dare not face his front, if Ye Yingwu was restrained and calm before, then the moment just now was strong and resolute, so that everyone seemed to vaguely see Ye Yuanjun who led thousands of troops and horses to charge forward,
This is Ye Yuanjun!
Ye Yingwu nodded lightly: "The best way at the moment is to recuperate, a certain has just come back from Tongshan County, one is to take a look at the academy, and the other is the newly created firearm, this new firearm has a good effect on the cavalry of the Mongolian Tatar array, but if you want it to exert its power, you still need to wait, it takes a month of processing and improvement, which means that the time for the Tianwu Army to go north must be delayed until next spring, or even the end of spring!" Late spring is followed by summer, and the Mongolian Tatars will be greatly affected by the hot weather, which can give us a few more points of victory. ”
Taking a light breath, Ye Mengding and Jiang Wanli glanced at each other and nodded. Ye Yingwu's well-organized appearance at this time shows that he is not blindly afraid of retreating, but has really seriously considered the complicated battle situation of this matter,
"So these months must be put to good use, and every day and every hour must not be wasted." Ye Yingwu frowned slightly, and looked straight at Deng Guangjian, "After all, Brother Meng's academy is a big deal and can't leave, so I need Senior Brother Zhongfu's help now, but I don't know if Senior Brother Deng has the kung fu and courage." ”
Touched by the solemnity in Ye Yingwu's tone, Deng Guangjian also felt that his cold heart was rapidly boiling, and he did not hesitate to stand up and clasp his fists at the moment: "Please command, although a certain Deng Guangjian has no talent, he will do his best!" ”
The point will not be as good as the radical general, I am afraid that this is the case. (To be continued.) )
