Liu Zhang suddenly became seriously ill, and Liu Baoshun had to choose to retire. This matter is inseparable from Yan Yunge. Liu Zhang's father and son suffered heavy losses, how could they give up. In order to take revenge, it is impossible to choose to cooperate with our Great Wei. ”

"Liu Zhang is not a reckless person, just because of revenge, he took the initiative to cooperate with us. No matter how you think about it, you feel famous. Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that this matter needs to be cautious. ”

Emperor Xiao Chengwen nodded.

However......

He said: "Liu Zhang said that he would send troops to drag Xiao Yi's soldiers and horses, and this is true. Liu Baoshun raised troops again, and you all know this. If it weren't for that, Xiao Yat would have already withdrawn his troops to help the guard battalion. ”

"Your Majesty wants to cooperate?"

"Why can't we cooperate? If I can take the opportunity to take the three counties, even if Liu Zhang has a follow-up move, I will have to deal with it. ”

"However, the Southern Army and the guard battalion have been fighting for several months, and they have not been allowed to advance an inch, and they have not yet set foot in the territory of the three counties. Even if Liu Baoshun dragged Xiao Yi, according to the current situation, the southern army may still make no progress. ”

"The Southern Army is not weak! A few months of training is enough for a recruit to grow into a veteran. Weak are the generals. Your Majesty, I beg you to remove the generals of the Southern Army. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"Since you want to choose cooperation, it is indeed necessary to remove the generals."

"Cooperating with Liu Zhang is like seeking skin with a tiger, and the minister is against it!"

"Pedantic!"

"I don't know how to work around."

"To cooperate with thieves is betrayal. Your Majesty think twice! Yan Yunge is a big trouble for the imperial court, and this matter is true. But don't forget, Yan Yunge is also Liu Zhang's henchman. Liu Zhang clearly wanted to use the hand of the imperial court to exterminate Yan Yunge. Once this matter is done, Liu Zhang will then go south. ”

"Alarmist. Liu Zhang's secret letter, you also read it. Liu Zhang promised to divide the river and rule, and would not raise troops to go south for ten years. ”

"Liu Zhang's words are serious? How naïve. Back then, Liu Zhang kept claiming to be a loyal minister of the Great Wei, but in a blink of an eye, he stole half of the country and claimed that the emperor ascended the throne. The lesson is still in front of him, and his words are farting.

Your Majesty, Liu Zhang's ambition as a thief and a wolf has to be guarded against! Don't wait for us to finish fighting Yan Yunge here, and then the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou began to invade the territory in the south. Lao Chen is by no means alarmist, and Liu Zhang is not worth believing at all. ”

There is some truth to this worry, Liu Zhang is not a trustworthy person, saying one thing and doing another. In case Liu Baoshun led his troops south while the imperial army occupied the territory of the three counties, the matter would be serious. This matter has to be guarded against. ”

Emperor Xiao Chengwen frowned.

His face was gloomy, and there was a lingering melancholy between his eyebrows.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that you can choose to cooperate, and you only need to secretly guard against it. Taking advantage of the fact that Liu Baoshun was still fighting with Xiao Yi, he decisively changed generals and won the territory of the three counties. ”

Emperor Xiao Chengwen nodded secretly, which coincided with him.

The fat meat delivered to the door cannot be eaten.

Otherwise, we will be damned.

"Ladies and gentlemen, who do you think is suitable for the change of generals?"

A few political bigwigs, you look at me, I look at you.

None of them marched, never led troops into battle, and never even went to the front.

The closest time to the war, that is, Sima Dou besieged the capital, and Wuheng attacked Gyeonggi Nahui.

By the time Wuheng besieged the capital, they had already followed the imperial army south.

So......

They are self-aware, and they are not the material to lead troops to fight, but it does not prevent them from recommending suitable candidates.

"Your Majesty, there is certainly one person who is suitable. This person is not only familiar with the army, but also has a lot of prestige in the army, so there is no need to worry about the officers and soldiers of the Southern Army refusing to obey orders. ”

"Who is it?"

"The person the old minister is talking about is the former general Cui who has already been captured!"

He?

When Lord Cui was on the front line at the border pass, he was so sick that he couldn't live or die, and the military order did not leave the general's mansion.

Disheartened, and afraid of dying in office, he will not be blind to death, so he implores his resignation.

Then after a lot of hardships, he finally returned to Jianzhou and officially paid tribute.

In order to be quiet, he recuperates in a courtyard outside the city.

The person who was already sick and half dead was unofficial and light, but his body got better.

It seems that it will not be a problem to live for another eight years and ten years.

Emperor Xiao Chengwen was not very satisfied with this recommendation, because in his opinion, Master Cui was too old and no longer suitable for military affairs.

But......

It is undeniable that Lord Choi has a prestige in the army.

If he commanded the Southern Army, he would definitely not have to worry about the soldiers not obeying orders and disobeying the situation.

If you were someone else, you wouldn't have the prestige of him.

In case the generals are not in harmony, this is a taboo for soldiers!

However, it is better to assign a deputy general to Lord Cui, and bring the old man with the newcomer.

When the newcomer leaves the mountain, the old man can retreat into the background.

So......

An edict summoned Master Choi Zhicui to the palace.

Lady Cui: "......"

He has already retired to his family, teasing his grandson, and no longer cares about the disturbances outside, and the general trend of the world has nothing to do with him.

He is so low-key, why does the emperor refuse to let him go and give him a quiet.

"Trouble!"

The gray-bearded Lord Choi Sik Cui really dislikes the edict in his hand.

He didn't want to enter the palace, he didn't want to step into officialdom anew.

"Summoning the old man into the palace at this time must be related to a series of recent events. Not surprisingly, I am afraid that the old man was ordered to lead the southern army to fight and attack the territory of the three counties. Hey......"

Sad!

"Father doesn't want to go out of the mountain, so it's better to refuse directly."

The third son, Cui Wang, said solemnly.

Master Choi Sik Cui smiled, "Send someone to take a look outside the door, is Jin Wuwei gone?" It is clear that the old man has to go if he doesn't want to go. ”

The third son, Cui Wang, frowned, "Balang Xiucheng is studying in Pingyang County, and this matter is known to the world. Your Majesty asked my father to command the army, aren't you worried about the loyalty of our Cui family? ”

"How could a mere Hachiro get into the eyes of the Son of Heaven. It's just a bet on both ends, Your Majesty knows it. He won't give up on using the old man because of Hachiro! ”

Cui Wang thought for a while, "The son accompanied his father to Jianzhou. If the father is really appointed to lead the Southern Army, the son is willing to share his father's worries, serve as a striker, fight his way out, and end this chaos as soon as possible. ”

Choi Sik was surprised and quite surprised.

The third son, Cui Wang, is recognized as a great talent by the Cui family, and he is proficient in all of them.

It's just that I don't like the officialdom and refuse to be an official.

This time, it was a surprise that he was willing to send out to lead the troops.

Master Choi Sik Choi coughed lightly, don't be busy with surprises first.

He asked, "Why is San'er willing to follow his father and lead the troops into battle?" ”

Cui Wang said with a serious face: "When my father was the general of the captivity, he was critically ill for a while. The son only hated not being by his father's side at that time, and he couldn't share his father's worries. This time, the son must follow the father anyway and serve the father, just in case. ”

"Hey! It's the old man who drags you down. You like officialdom, and you are willing to go out for the sake of the old man. ”

"It is right for a son to be filial to his father. As long as the father doesn't dislike his son for being stupid, that's fine! ”

Lord Choi Sik Choi laughed heartily.

"With the help of three sons, the three counties will be able to take it. Packing up our luggage, our father and son went to Jianzhou City with Jin Wuwei. ”

……

The Dongping Palace, Jianzhou, is half smaller than the Dongping Palace, which was originally in the capital.

King Xiao of Dongping frowned, looking worried.

His wife, Xu, knew what he was worried about.

He is worried about the safety of the three counties and the safety of Xiao Yi and his wife.

The imperial court sent troops, but it could not be attacked for a long time, and there was an accident in the Northern Wei Dynasty, so I thought that this wave was stable.

Unexpectedly, the imperial court decided to change generals, regroup, and raise troops to attack the three counties again.

In that year, he was ordered to lead the army to block Wuheng's attack on Gyeonggi, and was seriously injured but survived.

Later, Xiao Yat took his place.

And he took the Dongping palace to follow the court south.

This is also what Xiao Yat means.

At that time, the situation was unclear and there were too many constraints, so the Dongping Royal Mansion kept a low profile and followed the court to the south, and it was not difficult to keep a rich and noble life.

When I came to Jianzhou and settled down, three or five years have passed in a blink of an eye.

Over the years, he has been at home.

The injuries of that year left him with a lot of sequelae.

Fortunately, Emperor Xiao Chengwen was quite kind and did not embarrass their family.

On the contrary, because of his meritorious work in blocking Wuheng, he gave him a reward and gave him an idle errand.

There is no need to go to the yamen on an errand, a white-collar worker.

After a few years of peace and prosperity, until last year, when the imperial court started a war against the three counties, he became nervous and could not be at peace for a day.

He and his wife Xu said: "Originally, I was not worried about the safety of the three counties. But this time it was different, the emperor appointed Cui Zhi Lao Pifu to lead the southern army, and appointed Cui Wang and Zhong Shuhao as deputy generals.

Cui Zhi was good at military affairs, and had stayed on the front line of the border pass for several years, leading several large armies to fight against Wuheng. Even Liu Zhang had to listen to him back then.

Cui Wang, the talented son of the Cui family, is said to be excellent and strategic.

Zhong Shuhao, who can be called Cui Zhi's old subordinate, when he was at the border, the two worked together.

Zhong Shuhao himself has also been on the battlefield, and Zheng'er Bajing has fought with Wu Heng. In the past few years, Taoguang has been obscure, and it will only be stronger than back then. Together, these three counties are in danger! ”

"The prince should have more confidence in his younger siblings. Brother and sister are considered to have no last resort......"

"This time it's different!" Xiao Guo shook his head again and again, "I'm very flustered in my heart. Has Jin Wuwei been wandering outside the door lately? ”

Xu shook his head, "I have never found any trace of Jin Wuwei." ”

Xiao Guo covered his forehead and sighed.

He leaned back in his chair, feeling really bored.

In order to avoid suspicion, only during the New Year's holidays will they interact with each other in Pingyang County.

The so-called exchange of gifts is limited to the exchange of gifts.

Emotionally, he naturally hoped that the three counties would win this battle.

Dongping Palace, when he was still a prince and king, what a scenery.

The authority is in hand, and the soldiers listen to orders, which can be described as a hundred responses.

It was the imperial court that destroyed the Dongping Palace.

Ask him if he has any hatred in his heart?

It must be hateful.

If the imperial court and Liu Zhang went to war, as a member of the Xiao clan, he would definitely hope that the imperial court would win.

But......

The imperial court and Yan Yunge went to war, and he definitely hoped that Yan Yunge would win.

He longed that Xiao Yi would lead the army tomorrow, capture Jianzhou City, kill the royal family, and avenge the princes and kings who died tragically that year.

Right now, he's worried.

How will Yan Yunge break through this level?
