Chapter 557: Differences in Expertise

The governor of Yuzhou, the military judge and reinforcement sent by Huan Yi, who held the festival, came with military orders. Beijun Meng's lost his division and lost his ground, and was beaten by a partial general under Mao Dang's command to be trapped in Yiyang, losing the face of the Langya Wang clan who recommended him, and at the same time making the front-line Yuzhou Department unable to raise its head, so this time the order was the result of Wang's acquiescence.

Zhao Gao's identity is the son of the old emperor, and he is also a concubine, and more importantly, he is the spokesperson of many families in the interests of Wushisan, which is impossible to die. This reinforcement is the result of a game of many forces. Judging from the actual results, although Meng Shi had made a lot of gains in the roundabout assault under Huan Wen, most of them were beating civilians in circles, but this time he was vulnerable to the frontal battlefield, and it is said that no one has been seen for a whole three months, and there are even rumors of escape. At this time, the bigwigs of many families in the imperial court sold a favor to the Meng family and the Langya Wang family behind him, which is obviously a profitable deal.

Unfortunately, things seem to be changing a bit quickly.

When Xiao Youzhi, the military judge who was the official commander of General Liwu, looked at Mao Yizhi's head that was still hanging on the Yiyang City Gate, and hit the city wall from time to time, the sharp-tongued reprimand military order in his hand didn't know how to read it anyway. Shangguan's general order was not something that he could question as a miscellaneous general of the fourth grade, so he had to close his eyes and lower his voice to fool around, but fortunately, Zhao Gao didn't care much about it, and took over the edict of demotion and returning to his hometown in strict order.

"Brother Hongyi, the younger brother is also involuntarily." Xiao Youzhi's first sentence after reading the edict was to clear himself of his responsibilities. He was born in the Xiao clan of Lanling, and at this time, regardless of military affairs, but intersected with Zhao Gao as a family, which was his choice to be inspired and blessed. On the way to Yiyang, the team he sent had successfully received An Feng and Qi Si, who were said to have been lost, in a state of astonishment, and even Ruyin, which had broken through Northern Yuzhou under Zhao Gao's command, was also handed over to him, and it is said that if it were not for this military order, Zhao Gao would hand over the military power immediately, and Shangcai, an important town in the north of Yuzhou, would also be in the bag.

With his status and ability, he didn't dare to be greedy for Zhao Gao's military merits, so he had to scold those bastards in the military department for commanding blindly without understanding anything. Since ancient times, it has been common for the two armies to win or lose battles, and momentary gains and losses are meaningless, just to see who has the last laugh and who is the final winner. Now the gang of killers in the court hurriedly shot out when the dust had not settled for their own thoughts, and they were slapped in the face with a heavy slap.

Langya Wang's family has been dormant since the beginning of Huan Wen, this time will definitely take this opportunity to fight back, many of the families behind will definitely leave themselves clean, no one wants to be this stupid minister, especially in this critical moment when the two armies are at war and the war is about to break out, their own side actually went far away from the victorious generals, it is simply an unheard-of scandal, once it is said, it is an irreversible blow to the morale of the whole army.

This matter could not be hidden, Meng Shi retreated quickly and victoriously faster, and everywhere he went, he still wantonly reassured the people, lest others not know that he had won a great victory. Once the content of this edict is leaked out, it will not only end up with the shame of Emperor Fu Jian, but I am afraid that the brilliant words in the history books will also fall into a very ugly stroke.

It's no wonder that Zhao Gao, who got the edict, was not angry at all, but smiled like a fox who had succeeded in his treacherous scheme, and Xiao Youzhi, who seemed to have been reprimanded, also felt very pleasing to the eye. With the Langya Wang clan helping him to open his eyes, he doesn't have to worry that he will be hacked by the whole family this time, even if it is for stability, the court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty will definitely give himself a plausible statement at this particular moment.

After a while, probably thinking that it was a little unreasonable to laugh on this occasion, Zhao Gao made a look of compassion for the world, I don't go to hell, who will go to hell, and tried to make himself look disheartened and handed over all the remaining county soldiers to Xiao Youzhi's hands.

The remaining more than 1,000 county soldiers are not any hole cards at all in the team of old guys who have greatly increased their strength after being joined by Lao Ba and Mai Linglong. If you hand it over now, it is tantamount to turning it into an appeal of unfair treatment against yourself.

Because this is the original intention of the edict brought by Xiao Youzhi, at this time, Xiao Youzhi got the big seal of the military power on behalf of the military power, which is like holding a hot potato.

Once he took over, it was equivalent to taking over the defense of the entire Yiyang County, and his original task was only to protect the city of Yiyang and respond to Zhao Gao's retreat, and it was enough to bring this bit of men and horses with him. But if he divided the whole county, he was afraid that it would not be long before an edict with the same order would reprimand him, and he would not have any confidence in whether he could hang the head of the new general sent by Qiang Qin on the city gate.

"Brother Meng Shi save me!" Xiao Youzhi, who was thinking clearly, gritted his teeth, lowered his head and hugged his fists to give Zhao Gao a big salute. He is just a middle-aged person, and he is not outstanding within the Xiao family, but his years of family education still made him make a correct judgment and made a decisive choice at the first time.

The Lanling Xiao family is a famous family, and the pride of the family does not allow him to do this, but not everyone will look down on life and death. At this time, it may be a bit embarrassing to ask Zhao Gao for help in order to survive, but if you don't ask for help, you will lose your life, and it is a notorious loss of life - if this incident is recorded in the history books, then I will definitely be assigned a harlequin to leave a stench, and even my children will not be able to raise their heads!

What's more, just talking about the current situation, even if it is to temporarily calm down public opinion, Xiao Youzhi, who was directly ordered, will be thrown out as a scapegoat.

"Brother Xiao Shi, why is this!" Facing Xiao Youzhi, Zhao Gao said indifferently. In order to maximize the benefits that are about to be obtained, he is not ready to make a move - he is also a C-level plot character, and the court itself is arranged on a par with Mao Yizhi, since he can easily strangle the unified army is Mao Yizhi, then Xiao Youzhi is not a big deal.

"Brother Meng Shi, is this unwilling to save me?" How could Xiao Youzhi not hear the perfunctory tone in Zhao Gao's tone, in this life-threatening time and space, he gritted his teeth, and then said, "Since Brother Meng Shi put away the edict, he must have something in his heart, if Brother Meng Shi insists on refusing to save me, then I will say that this edict was forged by me, presumably this is what the princes of the court are most happy to see at this time." ”

"That's the life of your whole people!" Zhao Gao looked at this character who threatened his whole family's life and said coldly. I have to say that the point of this blow is very accurate, the scapegoat passively taking responsibility and taking the initiative are two different things, if Xiao Youzhi really carries all the responsibilities on his own, the role of the edict in Zhao's hand is quite limited.

It's just that if Xiao Youzhi admits that he forged the edict of Zhongshu Province, it will be a big crime to destroy the three clans.

"The younger brother is not from a high background, and he is not a concubine of Nagato." Xiao Youzhi's words eliminated Zhao Gao's threat invisibly. Which famous family doesn't have a few losers? It's enough to die yourself. Wang Dun, the son-in-law of the Langya Wang family, rebelled back then, as long as the head of the sister-in-law's family, Wang Dao, stood upright, and now the Langya Wang family is not the first family in a good manner?

"Huh!" Zhao Gao couldn't help but glance at him in surprise, he was able to find a way to survive in a mortal environment, I am afraid that Xiao Youzhi had already calculated this retreat the first moment he entered the city. is also a C-level plot, if Mao Yizhi has a very high ability to command troops, then Xiao Youzhi's intelligence should be his longest.

"Then follow me." Zhao Gao has not been threatened many times, this time he was a little surprised by being held and hurt his feet, and after a little thought, he made a decision, as long as Xiao Youzhi is around, it is also a good choice for everyone to silently rot this matter in their stomachs.

"Xie Dashuai!" Xiao Youzhi immediately clenched his fists and stood firm, and even changed the title in his mouth. Although his rank as a general is a little higher than that of General Yangwu of Zhao Gao, at this time, he actually claimed to be a general.

That's not the point, as a useful card on Zhao's hand, it's good to save your life. Besides, the imperial court will soon get the news, and in order to appease Zhao Gao, the new official titles and positions should arrive soon.

"You also planned it?" Mai Linglong looked at Xiao Youmei in disbelief and stood outside, not forgetting to hand over all the military power, including the two thousand people he brought, to Zhao Gao, and asked strangely.

"Sort of." Zhao Gao replied casually. It's not difficult to deduce this result, in fact, even without the addition of Mai Linglong and Lao Ba, it would be easy to kill Mao Yizhi who confronted him at the beginning with his ability, but it would be too wasteful to leave the plot world for 100 days by himself, and not to use this gap to make some articles.

"I'm afraid there will be a big battle next." Zhao Gao didn't wait for Mai Linglong to express his contempt for himself as usual, sighed and said, "By the way, where have the territories of the two of you fused together?" ”
