After Laba, the breath of the year is getting stronger day by day, the snow in Shengjing City is flying, and the plum fragrance is full of alleys.

The forbidden military camp carried out the last military exercise before the Chinese New Year, which can be regarded as the acceptance of the results of the year's drill, and the saint came in person to show the coming year.

However, the atmosphere of this year's military exercise was different, just because Shen Yu, the lieutenant general who tested the new art of war "Yu Bing", also participated, and he was full of confidence and ready to shine in the military exercise, but he did not expect to lose to "Wang's Art of War" and was defeated.

Now the soldiers who were already dissatisfied with "Yu Bing" made a fuss.

For Shen Yu, who was ordered by the saint a while ago to lead a battalion to test the new art of war, the soldiers secretly held back their fire, but they did not dare to squeak openly, and now in the open military exercise of the forbidden army, Shen Yu clearly lost to the old art of war, and the fire in the soldiers' stomachs finally found their mouths and spread them all.

On the training ground of the forbidden military camp, Shen Yu was surrounded in the middle, his face was blue and white, and he was holding the book of "Yu Bing" full of improved annotations in his hand, and his muscles were bursting up.

The ridicule and sarcasm around it were unpleasant, similar to a shrew scolding the street.

"The saint is just a casual appreciation, are you really old and have your tail cocked to the sky? Well, now I've never seen such a loud fight by slapping myself in the face! ”

"How can the new law be compared with the old law? Thinking about changing military law every day, you are always afraid that the world will not be chaotic, right? Brother Childe should go to eat, drink and play flowers, pretend to be a hero! ”

Led by Deputy Zhonglang General Qiu Sheng, the soldiers of the forbidden military camp laughed like thunder, spittle, and even rushed forward with good deeds, snatched the "Yu Bing" that Shen Yu regarded as a treasure, and tore it apart in front of him, laughing contemptuously and proudly.

Shen Yu, who used to walk sideways in Shengjing, is now extremely quiet, just with a pale face, gritting his teeth, and not saying a word, and there is no defense or argument.

After the curtain of the high platform, Zhao Yin took in the turmoil, but looked at Zhao Yuzhi next to him in some surprise: "Yo ho, Shen Yu has suffered so much grievance, can you bear it?" ”

Zhao Yu was so angry that he trembled all over, and his broken rice teeth bit his lower lip fiercely, but he just suppressed his heart, and did not rush to the scene to theorize, and watched Shen Yu being scolded bloody.

"Father, before the military exercise, the son persuaded Xiao Yuzi, let him not participate. If you win, if you lose......" Zhao Yuhong said, "But Xiao Yuzi said that he didn't want to talk about it on paper, the new law reformed the old law, he wanted to really take the first step." In the past, the ministers still thought that he was looking for something to play, but at that time, he knew that he had made up his mind, and if a soldier went on a battle, he would not look back. ”

Zhao Yin was sickly wrapped in a velvet blanket, and a smile appeared on his pale face: "Shen Yu really said that?" ”

Zhao Yuzhi wiped his eyes: "He also said that this first step must be lost, and he had expected it a long time ago, so Erchen would not interfere and would not go against his will." ”

"Must be a loss?" Zhao Xixing, who was next to him, had a different face and repeated this sentence.

Zhao Yuzhi swallowed back his tears, and said, "Although I don't know too much...... But sometimes I can't sleep after eating too much dinner, so I remember to stare at the sky with my eyes open and watch the sky brighten little by little. And the night before sunrise is the darkest and coldest...... I guess what Xiao Yuzi said is almost what it means. ”

There was a sudden silence on the high platform.

Zhao Yin's body was already very bad, he looked at the young man who was pointed out by Qianfu in the field, and his eyes glowed with melancholy, as if he saw the young man from the Guozijian again, and said, I will be the king.

Not only is it the blackest, the coldest, it is blood and white bones, broken waist and spine countless times.

- What kind of courage does it take, some people just want to take this first step.

"Call Shen Yu over." Zhao Yin coughed twice, according to the usual year-round military exercises, winning or losing is the emperor's last speech, and there are some things that he can't favoritize.

"The son will be summoned." Zhao Xi responded, but his eyes drifted over Qiu Sheng, a little obscure.

It stands to reason that the forbidden military camp has the strictest military discipline, and openly argues with Shen Yu, who is a lieutenant general, Qiu Sheng, who is a deputy lieutenant general, is a good hand at adding fuel to the fire, if he hadn't taken the lead in it and supported him behind his back, the soldiers would not have caused such an uproar.

Zhao Xixing was groaning, Shen Yu had already brought two people to the stage, and bowed his head: "See Your Majesty, Your Highness, Emperor Ji!" The minister's military exercise failed, please punish Your Majesty! ”

"It's cold, get up and make a fire." Zhao Yin kicked a charcoal basket over and looked at the two people brought by Shen Yu: "Who are you waiting for?" ”

"Captain Chenhu Weidu!" An older general clenched his fists.

"Hussar Deputy Lieutenant!" Another young military general was still a little nervous when he met the saint for the first time.

Zhao Xixing leaned over and whispered to Zhao Yin: "Father Qi, the Battle of Xishan, these two people have gone out with Shen Yu. Although Shen Yu didn't care about anything, the great victory in Xishan was the work of the two of them. ”

Zhao Yin was stunned, but immediately became more puzzled: "I summoned Shen Yu, what are you waiting to do?" ”

"Your Majesty forgive your sins! The minister dared to let the two of them meet, it was to ask His Majesty for his life, and in the future, he would implement the "Yu Soldiers", and the minister was willing to advance and retreat with the two captains! Life and death! Shen Yu knelt on one knee and answered.

Zhao Yin smiled angrily: "Implement "Yu Bing"? Shen Yu, you have blatantly lost this year's military exercises, and you still want to die of this military book? As the prince of Pyeongchang, I will give you another errand to ensure that you make contributions, so don't be struggling with this place! ”

Zhao Xixing and Zhao Yuzhen glanced at Zhao Yin with some surprise, but they didn't say anything.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yu knelt down and clenched his fists very seriously: "The minister remembers that His Majesty said that it is so difficult to change a word." People are content with the status quo, especially if they have accepted something for decades, even centuries, and suddenly asking them to abandon the old and change it to the new is no less than putting a knife around their neck. ”

"Since you know that it is powerful, you should understand that if you insist on going your own way, what awaits you ahead is not only as simple as being humiliated today, but also blood, white bones, and even infamy in the future." Zhao Yin's gaze was more inquiring, "...... In order to make a contribution, you are so enthusiastic? ”

"Yes, the minister started out to make meritorious contributions...... For someone's sake, there is a selfishness. Shen Yu took a deep look at Zhao Yuzhen, and his eyebrows were open, "But later the minister found that although the "Wang's Art of War" had made great contributions, it was now suspected of being outdated, and the Battle of Xishan had already shown its clues. And Your Majesty has also seen "Yu Bing", there is indeed merit, if the new law can replace the old, it is a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people. ”

Shen Yu bowed again, word by word: "The minister wrote "Yu Bing", changed the single-plank bridge, and the minister went to the end. ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers have also watched "Yu Bing", and they can indeed calculate a hundred years for my Zhou army! The ministers are willing to follow the Zhonglang general, no matter whether they win or lose, they are willing to change the law first! ”

Captain Huwei and Deputy Lieutenant Hussar also bowed down, as if Shen Yu had made friends in the process of experimenting with "Yu Bing", and became comrades who shared honor and disgrace.

Zhao Yin fell into silence for a long time.

He looked at the three of them, they were not very old, their pupils were so sincere that they seemed to have a fire in the depths, and the forbidden soldiers under the high platform looked at them sarcastically, and they were still stabbing them in the back like needles.

Yes, these three people, with their backs to this world, took the first step towards the front where they didn't know life and death.

Zhao Yin suddenly felt that he was old, he easily remembered the young man, and the self who stopped him back then, and asked him why he did what no one had done in three hundred years, why did he do it, and he didn't understand why he was obviously an unsmart person, why he gambled on unsmart methods.

Defy the law.

I don't know if it's hell or the front of the cliff, the heroes of the world are afraid or retreating, in the end, some people, what kind of juvenile heart they have, lonely and brave, go forward.

"Shen Yu, you are just like him, you are not smart, and you are the same as him, strong." Zhao Yin looked at the two lieutenants who were following Shen Yu, looked at Zhao Yuzhen, and his own dragon robe, his eyes were red.

"But...... You're luckier than him. ”

Inexplicable words, everyone was puzzled, but no one asked, because Zhao Yin's words will be recorded in history in a few years, and they will become a prophecy.

"Passed the decree, because of the failure of the military exercise, Shen Yu Zhonglang was dismissed from his post. In addition, a new army was built outside the Western Zhou military system, with 800 people, and the cavalry system was implemented. It was named the new imperial army after the meaning of promoting the new law and building the army. Captain Baihu Wei is the general, the deputy captain of the hussars is the deputy general, and Shen Yu is the military division, and he will take over the new imperial army from now on. ”

Zhao Yin took a deep breath and continued: "But because the military exercise was publicly lost, I must give an explanation to the world. Therefore, the new imperial army, I will only provide basic food money, more, such as high-quality armor, complete weapons, and even meat for the soldiers to eat every day, these must be found by yourself before the new imperial army is recognized by the country and the world. ”

"Your Majesty!" Shen Yu and the others blushed with excitement and couldn't say anything.

Zhao Yuzhen didn't care about etiquette anymore, so he rushed up and grabbed Shen Yu, and Sa Huan'er shouted: "Xiao Yuzi!" Your "Yu Bing" will definitely win the big battle! Be sure to show the people who laugh at you today the colors! ”

Shen Yu was shaken back to a little reason, and his eyes hesitated: "But Your Majesty, forgive the ministers for their courage, there are many respected old generals in the army, and they regard the "Wang's Art of War" as a guideline, if the new imperial army causes an uproar among the generals, the army's heart is unstable......"

"Resist the sin." Zhao Yin answered, his tone was not heavy, but the king was as majestic as a thousand jun.

"Wait for the order!" Everyone in the audience fell to their knees, and there was no objection.

Zhao Yin looked at the back of the young heads, and wiped his eyes quietly: "Shen Yu, you really ...... Luckier than him...... This time, I, come and stand behind you. ”

How delicate the country is, it is really a heroic song, unfinished.

Generations of good sons and daughters, endlessly, are people who have a heart in the world.
