Chapter 170 [Mo Shang Sang, the Talent of the World]
――――――――――――
Half an hour later, the Longxiang camp set off.
In the sound of the horse's hooves, Ma Chao drove the Snow Shadow Divine Horse all the way, as if he was venting the depression in his heart by galloping on the horse.
At this time, Li Li had already led his personal guards to go away, and he must have been able to rush to the Dongmen camp in half an hour, that is, the Chinese army camp that went out to Yizhou this time.
And Ma Chao, who had just suffered a heavy blow, had no intention of military affairs, and handed over all the affairs of the Longxiang camp to Yang Fu, and he himself vented wantonly on the way to the east gate, so that he could sober up and sort out his thoughts.
Until this moment, he still couldn't understand why he had fallen from the position of the commander of the Longxiang Camp overnight and became a horseman.
The gap is too big, and it is like a dream, and he really can't accept it.
But whether he accepted it or not, with Li Li's order, everything had become a fact, and no one could change it.
It is worth mentioning that although Ma Chao suffered a heavy setback, he never resented Li Li from beginning to end, let alone a trace of resistance.
In addition to this, he also knew that Li Li would not kill him, even if there were no generals to intercede, and without Wu Yi, Dong He and others to help intercede, he would not be beheaded. This is because if Li Li really wanted to kill him, he would have died as early as the Battle of Dongshan Pass eight years ago, and he would definitely not live to this day. It was Li Li who was reluctant to kill him at all, and he was convinced of this.
In addition, there is an unknown reason, which is also the most important reason. This is that after so many years of getting along, Ma Chao found that Li Li had a unique personality.
Most people are furious and angry when they are angry. Slapping tables and dropping things are common; But Li Li is very different. Li Li does not lose his temper when he is angry, and usually looks calm. People are unnoticeable, and the more angry they are, the calmer they become; It was when I saw that he was extremely calm. It's often when he's angry. This is the real joy and anger, invisible, unfathomable, and incomprehensible. On the contrary, if you see Li Li's thunderous and angry look, then there are only two situations. First, he was really enraged, and the consequences would be unimaginable; Second, the anger on his face was deliberately made to be seen. It was just a timely bluff, and in fact he wasn't angry.
Just in the big tent, Ma Chao saw that Li Li's thunderous anger was a little strange, and he was not really angry, but deliberately pretended to be angry, which seemed to have other intentions. Therefore, Ma Chao was not worried that he would be dragged out and beheaded, because he did not say a word, neither defended himself, nor argued with Li Li head-on. Directly bow down and confess.
However, the result was both expected by Ma Chao and unexpected by him. As he had guessed, Li Li had no intention of killing him at all. However, he dismissed all his officials and titles, and was directly demoted to the rank of groom.
This kind of result. It was really difficult for Ma Chao to accept, but he was helpless. For this, he had to sulk alone. Riding a snow shadow BMW to run wildly, in order to vent his feelings. It seems that this is the only way to make yourself feel better.
"Meng Qi is slow, you must not leave the army, otherwise you will violate military discipline again!"
While galloping, he heard Yang Fu's voice behind him, Ma Chao didn't care at first, but when he heard Yang Fu say the sensitive word "military discipline", Ma Chao was shocked, and immediately lifted the reins and stopped. This is a snake bite for ten years afraid of the well rope, although Ma Chao himself is unwilling to admit it, but this is an indisputable fact, he now has experienced the strength of military discipline, and he no longer dares to violate military regulations.
"Why did Yishan say this? Now that he is already a horseman and does not belong to the sergeant of the Longxiang Battalion, why would he still violate military law? Didn't you deceive me, and when you saw that I was in trouble, you deliberately mocked me? ”
Seeing that Ma Chao's face was not good, and he was quite annoyed and angry, Yang Fu hurriedly rode his horse to catch up, shook his head and explained: "General Meng Qi must not think too much, he is just telling the truth, how dare he ridicule the general." As for the deception, it is impossible to talk about it, Meng Qi and I are both from Xiliang, and we have known each other as early as when Meng Qi led the army to garrison Jincheng, and it is an old friend. If you are an old friend, how can I deceive you? Is Yang a faithless and unrighteous person? ”
Ma Chao's expression softened slightly when he heard this, nodded thoughtfully, and asked, "In this case, why did Yishan suppress me with military discipline?" ”
Yang Fu shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "Why is Meng Qi so forgetful, the lord has already made it very clear, 'From tomorrow, all officials and lords of Meng Qi will be dismissed'." Meng Qi should still remember these words, right? ”
Ma Chao nodded when he heard this: "Of course I remember." A certain family has been born and died over the years, fought on the battlefield for a hundred battles, and finally won some fame, but now it has fallen and all of it has come to naught. Such a big event, how can a certain person forget it? ”
"It seems that Meng Qi still doesn't understand." Without waiting for Ma Chao's words to fall, Yang Fu continued: "Since the official title will be dismissed from tomorrow, then Meng Qi's official position is still counted today." That is to say, at this moment, you are still the commander of the Longxiang battalion, and the more than 20,000 iron horsemen behind me are still under your command and obey your orders. ”
"Uh, this ??? And so it is. Ma Chao heard the change in color and was stunned. At this moment, he vaguely caught a hint of a different meaning, and felt that Li Li's order seemed to be a little inappropriate, since he was going to depose all his officials, why did he leave such an obvious flaw, what was the purpose of letting himself be the commander of the Longxiang Battalion for a day today?
Suddenly, Ma Chao felt that he had comprehended something, but he couldn't explain it clearly, he still didn't know why, and he was at a loss. But he knew that Yang Fu must have something to say to himself when he rushed over at this moment, so it was not difficult to speculate that Yang Fu must be a bystander, and he had already comprehended Li Li's deep meaning.
"Brother Yishan is resourceful, and he is deeply appreciated by the lord, please don't hesitate to teach, what is the purpose of the lord's move?"
Yang Fu nodded lightly and said approvingly: "General Meng Qi is the person who has won the lord's honor, and he is worthy of being a general in the army who has high hopes from the lord!" ”
Ma Chao was stunned when he heard this, a little confused, and a little flattered, and said with a sneer: "Yishan's words are a little unfathomable, supernatural and dull, please make it clear." ”
Unknowingly, Ma Chao actually gave Yang Fu the honorific title of "Mr.", which is an honorific title that can only be enjoyed by top strategists in the army, such as Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Li Ru and Fa Zheng. As for the military advisor Zhuge Liang, he is not qualified enough in Ma Chao's mind, because he has never had anything to do with Zhuge Liang before, and it is because of him that he deliberately makes things difficult for Zhuge Liang, and even does not hesitate to ridicule him in public. Don't admit it, this time Ma Chao and Zhuge Liang met for the first time, they made a big mistake and suffered a big loss, which is really a profound lesson, which is enough for him to remember for life.
Yang Fu didn't know what Ma Chao was thinking at the moment, but Ma Chao's "sir" made him very useful, and immediately stopped pretentious, and said frankly: "Meng Qi doesn't know anything. In fact, as far as last night's incident is concerned, what Meng Qi did is understandable, Kong Ming's military division did not show the warrant of the lord, nor did he have a military talisman to mobilize soldiers and horses, Meng Qi can completely refuse to execute. The lord also knows this, and the root of last night's incident is still in the lord. Of course, this may have happened suddenly, and the lord had no time to issue a warrant, so he asked the military advisor to convey the military order on his behalf.
Because of this, when he stated the incident to the lord in person before the next, the lord did not deny it. It can be seen from this that the lord does not intend to delve into this, if it were not for Meng Qi and the generals humiliating Kong Ming's military division, the lord would not have asked about this matter, let alone blame Meng Qi and the generals of the whole battalion.
However, Meng Qi and the generals in the battalion joined forces to bully the military advisers, but they went too far, and they stopped it again and again, but Meng Qi didn't listen to it at all, and still did everything he could to make things difficult, so that he caused today's disaster. ”
"Oh?" Ma Chao suddenly realized: "In this way, this qiē is all Kong Ming's slander in front of the lord, so that we will all be punished." Kong Ming's guy is really hateful! ”
Yang Fu's expression changed greatly after hearing this, and he said urgently: "Why is Meng Qi still obsessed until now!" Can't you see that the lord is very important to the military division? Speaking of which, Meng Qi has followed the lord to fight for many years, haven't you heard that so far only two people in our army have been praised by the lord as 'the talent of the heavens and the earth'? ”
"Ahh Why haven't I heard of this? Ma Chao was surprised.
Seeing this, Yang Fu shook his head with disappointment: "The two people who are praised by the lord as the talent of the heavens and the earth, one is the governor of Zhou Yu, and the other is the military advisor Zhuge Liang. Governor Zhou Yu doesn't need to say much, if he is not too young and has little qualifications, he is afraid that he has already become the first general under the command of the third prince.
And the military advisor Zhuge Kongming has not fought many battles since he came out, but every major war he has participated in has amazing moves. In the battle of Lulongsai, Kong Ming offered a plan to resist the barbarian army with a strong bow and crossbow, annihilated the main force of the Badun army in one fell swoop, and killed tens of thousands of Wuhuan war horses, laying a victory for our army to pacify the barbarians in Liaodong. This expedition to Yizhou, it is said that he had quietly infiltrated Yizhou to travel when the lord led the army to conquer the Central Plains, called travel, but in fact, he secretly contacted our army lurking in the southwest of Yizhou, that is, the Dongzhou soldiers who captured Liu Zhang's mansion last night. Therefore, this time to pacify Yizhou, Kong Ming's military division made great contributions, and soon he was bound to be entrusted with a heavy task by the main public, whether he was officially promoted to the position of general of the military division, or jumped to the history of a state assassin, or the commander of an army, ranking above Jiuqing. In addition, I have also heard that Kong Ming's military division is not only good at leading the army to fight, but also proficient in government affairs, and is a rare talent in the world for a hundred years. ”
At the end, Yang Fu said earnestly: "Therefore, this time, the lord demoted Meng Qi to a groom and asked you to take care of the military advisor's mount, which is actually to let you follow the military advisor." This move is not only a punishment for Meng Qi's offense to the military advisor, but also for you to get close to the military advisor, deepen your understanding of each other, and follow the advisor to fight the next day.
In this way, when the lord achieves hegemony, Kong Ming's military division will definitely be ranked among the third dukes, and Meng Qi will also be the rising tide and will become the commander of the town guard. It is to test whether you can pass the guò test this time, and the key is whether the military advisor recognizes you, which directly determines your future achievements. This kind of opportunity is not all the main generals in the army can encounter, the opportunity must not be missed and will not come again, and I hope that General Meng Qi will cherish himself, and do not let down the hard work of the lord! ”
