Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty enshrined Chen Yingliang as the commander of the Qinwang coalition army, and soon spread quickly within the Qinwang coalition army, learning the news, of course, the Peng Sui army was full of surprise, cheering, and Chen Yingliang has a deep relationship with the Eastern Capital Right Guards team, there are also countless soldiers smiling, excited and encouraging - for example, the **** soldiers, as well as the right guards who have followed Chen Yingliang to participate in the Eastern Capital Defense Battle and the decisive battle of Hongnong. However, in the other Qinwang armies, this news brought more than surprise and excitement.

Of course, it goes without saying that the Taiyuan Sui army under Li Yuan's command is of course needless to say, many people heard that Chen Yingliang was simply mourned after being named the commander-in-chief, and they all knew that they would not have a good life in this Qinwang War. And more Taiyuan Sui army officers and soldiers, like more friendly soldiers, are extremely surprised, worried and questioning, worried that Chen Yingliang, who is only nineteen years old, will not be able to do this job, and one general will not be able to kill thousands of troops, and countless Sui army soldiers will die in vain, and their morale, military morale, and fighting spirit have been greatly affected, even including Chen Yingliang's hometown Daxingqin Wang's army.

Of course, many friendly people also seized this opportunity to stir up trouble and stir up the rain, secretly bewitching and confusing the military morale of the Qinwang coalition army, weakening their morale and fighting spirit, and wishing that Chen Yingliang would quickly fight a big defeat and lose face, and then the official hat fell to the ground or even allowed his head to fall to the ground, but they were afraid of the aftermath of the Great Sui Imperial Court and Emperor Yang of Sui, and these friendly people did not dare to openly stand up and make trouble for the time being.

Chen Yingliang, who accidentally won the jackpot by buying Mark Six lottery, of course, also knew that it was difficult for him to convince the public, but Chen Yingliang had no way to change the situation in a short period of time, so he could only quickly lead Ma Sanbao and Yuan Tiangang and others back to the camp of Qian Peng, prepare their own commander's banner, and prepare for the next day's battle of Laoxian, Li Jing was ordered to bring his Ma Yi team that was forcibly detained by Li Yuan to accompany him, leaving only thirty people to Li Yuan as interpreter guides, and Liu Changgong, the incompetent king of the Eastern Capital Qin, also returned to his camp with Chen Yingliang to the north. and Yin Shishi also came uninvited, and followed Chen Yingliang north to the camp of Qian Peng.

The strict and cautious Yin Shishi threw away the army and took the initiative to follow Chen Yingliang north, of course, not to pat Chen Yingliang, the new marshal, on the contrary, as soon as he left the hostile Taiyuan Sui army camp, the Yin Shishi immediately warned Chen Yingliang: "Marshal, it is too risky to send troops to attack the Laoxian Turks tomorrow, you have just taken up the post of commander of the Qinwang Army, and the affairs in the army are full of things that need to be dealt with urgently, you don't integrate the internal first, but first take the risk of sending troops to attack the Laoxian Turks, if you win the battle, it's okay to say, if you encounter disadvantages, It's even harder for you to be a manager. ”

"Yes, Brother Yingliang, are you too risky?" Liu Changgong also rarely said a serious word, and also warned: "The several armies you named to fight, except for the army under Li Yuan's command, are all teams that have just arrived at King Qinkou from afar, and they are very tired before they have rested, and their combat effectiveness is very affected, so they will take the initiative to attack tomorrow, I am not very optimistic." ”

"It's fine." Chen Yingliang said arrogantly: "The most powerful thing in the Turkic army is cavalry archery, it will rain heavily tomorrow, and the Turks will waste half of their combat effectiveness if they abolish cavalry archery in the rain. ”

Hearing Chen Yingliang mention the problem of rain again, Yin Shishi and Liu Changgong couldn't help but look up at the sky, seeing that the sky was still clear and there was no cloud in sight, Yin Shishi and Liu Changgong were inevitably even more worried, and they all asked: "Dashuai, are you sure that it will rain heavily tomorrow?" Looking at the weather, doesn't it look like there will be rain? ”

"I can trust Mr. Haktor." Chen Yingliang pouted to Yuan Tiangang and said casually: "By the way, this Mr. Yuan Tiangang Yuan is the most brilliant astronomical master in the world, a master of astrology, and the most outstanding feng shui master in the world, he said that it will rain tomorrow, and it will definitely rain tomorrow." When I was fighting thieves with him in the Central Plains, every time I went into battle, I had to ask him to predict the weather, and only one out of ten times was not accurate, and he had been paying attention to the weather in this area of Yanmen for a long time, and it would never be wrong to predict that it would rain tomorrow. ”

Seeing that Yin Shishi and Liu Changgong looked at him with doubts and worries in their eyes, Yuan Tiangang smiled slightly, and arched his hand and said: "The handsome man is really awarded, when he is the most brilliant astronomical master in the world or something, Yuan is really ashamed." But please also rest assured that Yin Taishou and General Liu are indeed very sure this time, and there will inevitably be heavy rain in this area tomorrow. ”

Yin Shi Shi Shi and Liu Changgong were still very worried, but seeing Chen Yingliang's resolute attitude, Yin Shi Shi Shi was not easy to persuade him to continue, so he gave up his hand and said: "Da Shuai, since you insist on acting like this, then the last general will not dare to oppose and obstruct, the time is not early, the last general will go back to prepare for tomorrow's supervision team, after the arrangement is made, the last general will also accompany you into battle tomorrow." ”

Chen Yingliang agreed, then turned to Li Jing, who had not spoken beside him, and ordered: "Li Juncheng, by the way, send your interpreter guide to Yin Taishou to bring him back, he is in charge of the legal affairs of the army and also supervises the envoy of the battle team, and he has a heavy responsibility, and arranges ten interpreters who are familiar with Turkic for him." ”

Li Yuan hugged his fists and sang a promise, and immediately returned to his team to arrange, taking advantage of this opportunity, the Yin World Master came to Chen Yingliang's ear again, and said in a low voice: "Dashuai, be careful of this Li Jing, as far as I know, this Li Jing has been very close to Li Yuan these days, often goes in and out of Li Yuan's back tent, and has a lot of contact with Li Yuan's henchmen, and his behavior is also a little abnormal today, your military aircraft is a big event, it is best to let him participate less." ”

"Thanks for the advice, the younger generation remembers." Chen Yingliang thanked him in a low voice, and at the same time was a little hesitant and difficult to decide - of course Chen Yingliang could see that Li Jing's behavior today was not only abnormal, but also a little unreasonable, as if he was acting, but the military genius Li Jing's strategic skills, but Chen Yingliang was reluctant to give up no matter what, it was a pity not to reuse, and he was not at ease when reused, Chen Yingliang was a little dilemma in how to treat Li Jing, and he was in a difficult decision.

Chen Yingliang didn't worry about Li Jing here, there was another change in Li Jing's team over there, after the ten interpreters who were arranged for the team of the Yin World Division were out of the ranks, suddenly a soldier loudly resisted the order, saying that he was unwilling to serve under the account of the Yin World Division, and the voice of the resistance to the order also directly entered the ears of Chen Yingliang and the Yin World Division, "I don't go to the military law team to be an interpreter, I am here to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, not to be the superintendent team to kill their own people, I will not go, I will not go!" ”

When the supervising team is relaxed and safe, it is the dream of every Sui soldier who does not seek to improve, but now a soldier who refuses to enter the supervising team suddenly appeared, Chen Yingliang inevitably became a little interested, so he led everyone to fight back to Li Jing's team, and just saw a team under Li Jing scolding the anti-order soldier, "Hu Jingde, you shut up for me!" Don't forget, you're not a blacksmith now, you're a soldier in Mayi County, Great Sui! Military orders are like mountains, arrange for you to go there, you will go there, and if you dare to disobey the order, be careful of your head! Besides, arranging for you to supervise the team, is that a disservice to you? Others can't get in if they want to join the Overseer team, so you're taking advantage of it! ”

"What's wrong?" Chen Yingliang opened his mouth to ask, and then carefully looked at the soldier who resisted the order, and found that he was tall and strong, with dark skin, and a thick beard, and he looked like a reckless man, so it was no wonder that he would act in public to resist the order.

"The marshal forgives the sin, and blames the subordinate officials for not governing the army strictly, which alarmed the marshal, and the subordinate officials are guilty." Li Jing hurriedly surrendered his hand to plead guilty, and then explained the reason, saying that he had arranged for a Mayi soldier who knew Turkic to serve as an interpreter and guide for the team of the Yin World Division, but this reckless soldier heard that the team of the Yin World Division did not need to go into battle, but only hid in the rear as a military law team and a supervising team, and immediately became unhappy, and resolutely did not want to be an interpreter for the Yin World Division, and as a result, he made a fuss.

Hearing Li Jing's explanation, Chen Yingliang not only did not get angry, but on the contrary, he admired the tall soldier Hu Jingde, so he smiled and asked him: "Your name is Hu Jingde, you don't want to go to the supervision team as an interpreter, so what kind of team do you want to go to?" ”

"Commander, I want to go to a team that can go into battle and kill the enemy." Hu Jingde clenched his fists and replied loudly: "The villain joined the army because he wanted to go into battle to kill the enemy, charge into battle, and didn't want to kill his own people with a knife." The villain is brave and wants to ask the marshal to be gracious and give me a chance to go into battle to kill the enemy. ”

"Very well, for your sake, I'll give you this opportunity." Chen Yingliang smiled and nodded, and ordered: "Li Juncheng, change someone to the team of Yin Taishou as an interpreter." Ma Sanbao, bring this Hu Jingde to your army, let him be your interpreter, and when you go into battle, bring him with you, if he has any outstanding performance on the battlefield, remember to sue me. ”

Li Jing and Ma Sanbao each sang a promise, Hu Jingde was also overjoyed, and hurriedly saluted Chen Yingliang happily and thanked him, smiling from the bottom of his heart, so that Chen Yingliang couldn't help but smile slightly, and said secretly: "It's a fierce general's material, it depends on your performance on the battlefield." It's a pity that if you change your surname, I will immediately appoint you as the protector of the Chinese army. ”

After this episode, Yin Shishi left first with the interpreter guide assigned to him, and then Liu Changgong also returned to the right Wuwei camp with the interpreter assigned to him, and Chen Yingliang took Li Jing and Ma Sanbao and others to continue to go north to the Peng camp, and it was also at this time that Chen Yingliang found an opportunity to talk to Li Jing alone, and asked Li Jing with a smile: "Li Juncheng, I decided to send troops to attack the Laoxian Turks tomorrow, what do you think?" ”

"Of course there are opinions, but Xia Guan feels that there is no need to say any more." Li Jing replied: "Chen Dashuai trusts Mr. Yuan Tiangang's prediction of climate and rain, and is determined to seize this rare fighter to destroy the enemy in one fell swoop. ”

"Yes, I won't listen to your objections, because I absolutely trust Mr. Keshi." Chen Yingliang nodded, then asked with a smile: "Li Juncheng, I wonder if you have the intention of gaining my absolute trust like Mr. Keshi?" ”

Li Jing was a little silent, and only after a while did he ask rhetorically: "Chen Dashuai, Xia Guan doesn't know what you mean by this, Xia Guan is an official of the imperial court, and now he is your subordinate, do you absolutely trust me, that is your personal matter, what does it have to do with your subordinates?" ”

"Is this guy trying to capture him, or is he reminding me that he is only working for me for the sake of the court?" Chen Yingliang was confused by Li Jing's vague answer again, and he became more and more unable to understand what Li Jing's position was, so he had to sigh quietly, and said with a very graceful smile: "Yes, Li Juncheng's words are right, it doesn't matter to you whether I trust you or not." However, I can tell you that I believe in you very much, and in the future, whenever there is a discussion of the military situation and a tactical analysis, you must participate. ”

After that, Chen Yingliang, who couldn't distinguish Li Jing's position of loyalty and treachery, grabbed his war horse and left first, while Li Jing maintained his previous speed and followed closely behind, his face was abnormal, so that no one could see what he really thought.

…………

After Chen Yingliang returned to the camp of the Peng Sui army, he was naturally greeted by the soldiers of the Peng Sui army, and saw the cheers of Chen Dashuai one after another, one after another, for a long time, Wei Zheng, who was famous for not liking sycophants, also made an exception, and personally held a handsome flag of the commander of King Qin, who had just been made, in front of Chen Yingliang, and congratulated Chen Yingliang with a smile on his promotion to the commander and held great power. Then naturally, the handsome flag of the commander of the Great Sui Zhulu Qin Wang Army also quickly rose to the top of Chen Yingliang's big tent of the Chinese army, and the soldiers of Qian Peng were once again thunderous with joy, cheering and roaring from the bottom of their hearts, and frantically venting the great joy in their hearts.

On the contrary, when the camp of Qian Peng shook the sky, the camp of the Sui army in Taiyuan, which had been arrogant for several days, was lifeless, and the generals and soldiers were all depressed, their faces were gray, they were extremely depressed, they were powerless to do anything, and their morale was extremely low. At the same time, it is also natural that the Li Zi banner, the commander of the Qinwang Army, which was carefully made by the Taiyuan Sui Army, was also quietly thrown into the fire and burned by the soldiers of the Taiyuan Sui Army, and they did not dare to leave even a strip of cloth.

The most frustrating atmosphere is still in Li Yuan's big tent of the Chinese army, Li Yuan sat crookedly on the new handsome chair and looked at the top of the tent in a daze, the old handsome chair that Chen Yingliang had sat on before had become a state of sawdust, and no one cleaned up the scattered tents, Li Yuan's henchmen stood next to the sawdust and hung their heads in frustration, Li Er and Chai Shao, who belonged to Yun Dingxing's team, were also among them, and the dozen or twenty people gathered in one tent, but for more than a moment, no one said a word, and said a little.

I don't know how much time has passed, Li Yuan opened his mouth with a blank expression, and said, "Let's talk about it, what should I do next?" ”

"Ambassador, let's go!" Xu Shixu roared: "Withdraw to Taiyuan, no matter how he Chen Yingliang is a thief, I don't want to see him again!" ”

"yes, I don't want to see him anymore!" Li Xiaogong also shouted: "Just find an excuse to withdraw to Taiyuan, we don't care about Xinkou here!" ”

"You two idiots, can you shut your stinky mouth for the old man?" Li Yuan scolded weakly: "You want me to die? Chen Yingliang's thief already hated me to the core, and if I heard your escape, he would immediately take the edict and cut me down, and then kill my whole family. ”

"Ambassador, in fact, there is no need to be so pessimistic." The eldest grandson Shunde opened his mouth and said cautiously: "Chen Yingliang took shit luck and was canonized by the emperor as the commander of the Qin Wang Army, which cannot be changed, but we don't need to worry too much, as long as we change our attitude towards Chen Yingliang in time, and do our best to help him break through the Turks and rescue the holy driver, I believe that we will not suffer too much loss, and we will have a lot of rewards after success in the future." ”

"What do you mean? Let the old man obediently be a dog for Chen Yingliang's boy, take care of the home for him, and charge into battle, but he is the first to look forward? Li Yuan asked very unceremoniously.

The eldest grandson Shunde's expression was extremely embarrassed, and he hurriedly said: "The ambassador misunderstood, I just advise you to act in accordance with the edict, and don't give Chen Yingliang the opportunity to seize the handle and trouble you, otherwise, once the conflict with this thief continues to expand, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

"Dreaming!" Li Yuan's voice finally became louder, and he roared: "I want the old man to obediently obey him, dreaming!" The old man and the thief have a deep hatred and hatred, and it is still difficult to eliminate the hatred in the old man's heart by breaking him into thousands of pieces, not to mention helping him to make achievements and make him climb higher and higher? ”

The eldest grandson Shunde didn't dare to say anything, Chai Shao nodded silently, and recognized his father-in-law's point of view from the bottom of his heart, but Li Er stood up and arched his hand to Li Yuan and said: "Father, Uncle Changsun's Jian, although you can't adopt it, and the child doesn't want you to adopt it, but the child still thinks that you should be respectful and obedient to Chen Yingliang at least on the surface, and don't give him a chance to seize the handle, and then design to overturn it to the ground and replace it." ”

"What's my son's plan?" Li Yuan had some confidence in his second son's plan.

"My father wants to replace Chen Yingliang, and the most effective way is to make him discredited and make no one obey." Li Erjian said with a smile: "It's just right, tomorrow is the best opportunity." ”

"Of course tomorrow is a good opportunity, of course I know that." Li Yuan nodded, and said, "But what if it really rains tomorrow?" Chen Yingliang's idea of the thief to fight the weather in Yanmen is not a day or two, and when he gave the order today, he looked like he was very confident, what if it really rained heavily tomorrow? ”

"If it really rains tomorrow, Chen Yingliang is indeed likely to win a battle and lift the siege of Laoxian first." Li Er nodded, then smiled again and said, "But after the siege of Laoxian is lifted, it will be easier for us to clean him up again." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Li Yuan was a little confused by his son.

Li Er smiled and didn't answer in public, but strode forward, attached to Li Yuan's ear, and whispered, "Father, have you forgotten who is the person who was surrounded by the Turks in the city of Laoxian?" Surrounded by the Turks in the city of Laoxian, is His Royal Highness King Qi Yang Xuan, this His Royal Highness the King of Qi is the second son of the Emperor Xià, the eldest son of the Emperor Xià Yuande Prince Yang Zhao died of illness, he has long been aiming at the position of the prince, but because he is not loved by the emperor, he has never been able to do so, on the contrary, the three sons of the Prince of Yuande are very popular with the emperor, legend has it that King Qing is quite worried about this, this time the emperor is besieged in Yanmen City, Chen Yingliang rescued Yang Xun first, is not our His Royal Highness the King of Qi The best opportunity ......? ”

Li Er didn't finish speaking, but Li Yuan sat up straight, his eyes rolling quickly, and after a long time, Li Yuan asked, "How to start?" ”

"Father, did you forget?" Li Er smiled and said: "During the discussion last night, because you were afraid of Chen Yingliang's scheming and cunning, you deliberately arranged a chess piece to ambush him beside him, the original intention of this ambush chess was to monitor and beware of Chen Yingliang's thief, and now Chen Yingliang is lucky, and he accidentally won the position of Qinwang's coach. ”

Li Yuan smiled, and smiled extremely happily, nodded and said: "Erlang is still smart, much better than your stupid brother, yes, this hand is used well, we can not only turn defeat into victory, but also let Chen Yingliang's little thief fall to the ground!" ”

After laughing evilly, the spirit and strength also returned to Li Yuan's body, let Li Yuan stand up, and shouted: "Okay, give the old man a good spirit, prepare for war with peace of mind, and send troops north on time tomorrow to accept his dispatch order from Chen Yingliang's thief." Of course, it's best if it doesn't rain tomorrow, even if it really rains heavily tomorrow, the old man will have a way to clean up his Chen Yingliang thief! ”

When Li Yuan's henchmen clasped their fists and sang their promises, Li Er's Jun also showed a happy smile on his face, and secretly said in his heart: "Father is right, this hand is used well, we can not only turn defeat into victory, but also possibly make Chen Yingliang's little thief fall to the ground - if you can really do this, I will not dislike you." ”
