After the incident of the Nangong family more than seven years ago, the nearly 200,000 troops originally deployed by the Beiwu Dynasty in Shucheng and the border city were reduced after these years, and there were less than 80,000 left, but the Xirong tribe gathered 300,000 troops this time, if the reinforcements from the imperial court were not sent in time, I am afraid that it would not be long before the border city would fall!

Thinking of this, the ministers who have been playing for him to cut military spending and various city guards over the years are resentful, if it weren't for them, how could the Beiwu Dynasty cut so many city guards, and there is no god of protection, the Nangong family.

Until this time, everyone had to admit that if the Nangong family was still there, not to mention that the Xirong clan had sent an army of 300,000, even if it was 400,000 or even 500,000, they would have no fear!

After all, the Nangong family once resisted the invasion of 100,000 foreign troops for half a month with 10,000 troops, and even annihilated nearly 30,000 troops of the other party with a very small number of casualties in half a month!

But the Nangong family is no longer there, and the Zhenguo army led by the Nangong family is now falling apart, leaving only one name, many veterans have been disarmed and returned to the field, and the remaining generals are scattered all over the country......

In the entire Northern Wu Dynasty, after the disappearance of the Nangong family, most of the people who could take the position of general were like Pang Yizhu, and if he really let someone like him go to the front line, wouldn't it be a complete surrender of the victory that had little chance of victory?

The officials present knew this, so they knew that the situation on the front line was urgent, and they did not say anything to ask the emperor to lift Pang Yizhu's grounding, and they didn't even mention his name.

Fortunately, there is still a Pu Ce on top of the border city, which is the new generation of patron saints of the Beiwu Dynasty who have established prestige in the border city over the years!

The air pressure in the Jinluan Hall is getting lower and lower, and the expression on the emperor's face is getting more and more ugly.

I don't know how long it took, just when everyone's backs were about to bow to the ground, Shen Lingzhi, the king of Shuoyang County, took a step forward and proposed to go to the front line from the newly built Tiger Guard Army more than a month ago, which made the emperor even think of a fold that the Ministry of War had presented to him.

It records that when the Tiger Guard Army was originally the Tiger Guard Battalion, its master trained a team of top soldiers for the imperial court, and then that team captured the cottage that had been entrenched on Qishan for many years without a single soldier, and found out that it was originally a stronghold of the Xirong tribe buried in the Northern Wu Dynasty.

In addition, the Xirong clan suddenly attacked this time, even if the emperor understood, it must be that there was something behind the Qishanzhai that they didn't know, and his face couldn't help but become more and more ugly.

"Huh! Xia Guan remembered that Shen Daru's sister-in-law was a captain in the Tiger Guard Army, right? Shen Daru, this is a war, not a time for children to play at home! ”

Hearing Shen Lingzhi's words, someone on the side opened his mouth to retort, and then some people opened their mouths to echo.

Compared with Shen Lingzhi's title of King of Shuoyang County, he became famous in the Northern Wu Dynasty as a great Confucian, so even in the court, everyone still called him Shen Daru.

Most of these people who opened their mouths to refute were like Pang Yizhu, who were in his position but did not seek his position, and only thought about how to get more benefits for themselves and the family and forces behind them.

And because everyone is involved behind them too much, they are intertwined with each other like spider silk, so that every time the emperor is determined to rectify well, he has to suddenly call a stop, and then let him break his arm to protect the handsome.

Otherwise, there will be a very huge turmoil in the entire Beiwu Dynasty, and this is a situation that he does not want to see as an emperor!

"Then I don't know if you have any good candidates to recommend?

That's right, Xiao'er is indeed serving in the Tiger Guard now, but as you said, this is going to the battlefield, not playing at home's play, could it be that the king of this county will still joke with the life of his only child? ”

Shen Lingzhi glanced at the other party lightly, and the royal momentum was vividly displayed at this moment.

According to the official uniform on the other party's body, he is just a five-grade petty official, and he doesn't even know his position and name, which makes him feel a little less patient even if he knows that the other party is just being pushed out by the person behind him as a shield.

If it weren't for knowing that only the bottom of the Tiger Guards was clean, and he had been listening to his son talk about making meritorious contributions and proving himself to others or something during this time, he would not have risked going home and being scolded by the princess of the county to recommend the Tiger Guards to the emperor!

Hearing his words, the man who spoke shrank back.

Not to mention, Shen Lingzhi only has such an only son as Shen Duan, which is known to the entire emperor, and his mother is Princess Hanqing, the sister of the former emperor, if it is not to protect the family and defend the country, how can he put such a lone seedling in danger?

Thinking of this, many people who wanted to raise objections quieted down.

"Who is the Tiger Guard's current leader?"

After a long while, the emperor asked softly.

"Back to the saint, it's General Mingwei Murphy." The military department Shangshu replied that after all, this was under his jurisdiction, and he had also gone through the files about Murphy in his heart.

This made him a little amazed, after all, Murphy's file was like the young Nangong General, the youngest soldier in the army climbed up, and always stuck to his original intention, which made him feel a little emotional in his heart.

It's a pity that Murphy has less experience than General Nangong, after all, the latter has been trained from the battlefield since the beginning of the march, and every battle is an accumulation of blood and injuries!

"Your Majesty, the ministers are willing to ask for war!"

Outside the Jinluan Palace, a person slowly walked forward, strode forward, and walked into the Jinluan Hall after a while.

The man was wearing black and gold armor, which reflected colorful light in the sunlight, and the eagle-like helmet on his head, and a gold feather was inserted in the red tassel at the top, which was a glory that only those who had great merit could wear.

Fang Zheng's face was mostly covered by a beard, only revealing a pair of somewhat fierce eyes, thick eyebrows like ink, and when he appeared, some of the people in the court breathed a sigh of relief, and some people held their breath.

"The Marquis of Wuding asked the emperor for peace, and asked the emperor to allow the minister to lead the troops out of the station, completely drive the Xirong tribe out of the territory, and win this battle!"

Marquis of Wuding-Qi Yuyi knelt down on one knee, the armor on his body made a crisp sound, and after saluting the emperor, he said loudly and very loudly.

For his arrival, it was very unexpected by the emperor, after all, since the other party was regarded as a marquis by himself, except for a specific day to go to the court, he stayed in the mansion of the Marquis of Wuding on weekdays, looking like he was relieved and returned to the field, and he did not love power.

It is precisely because of this that everyone forgets his existence when discussing the selection of the main general, and even the emperor subconsciously ignores that there is such a main general who can lead troops to fight.
