Chapter 559: I Know It

Lu Yan seemed to remember, he let out a long sigh of relief, his eyes were full of exhaustion, he gently rubbed his temples, and said, "Do you know how it is spread in the capital?" Say what kind of young general I am, the god of war, do you think that when these things reach the ears of the emperor, they will not make the emperor suspicious? Since ancient times, after the military attache won the war, few of them had a good end, don't you understand? ”

"I'm famous enough now, I was calculated once before, and the generals who came back from the dead spread almost all over the capital, that is, I won this war this time, and after returning to the capital, my reputation will definitely go one step further, do you think the emperor will continue to let me do this general position in peace?"

"Rather than being sent to the prison by the emperor at that time, it is better for me to take the initiative to resign and go back, so that I can still save a little face and seek some benefits for these brothers."

"I understand the truth, but, but ......" Shao Wu didn't know what to say for a long time, so he could only smack the table twice with a hum, looking helpless.

These soldiers were born and died, and they finally became famous, and they were worried that the people above would guess their merits, what have they been doing all these years?

"Damn, it's really unpleasant."

Shao Wu rarely burst into foul language, and he was really angry in his heart at this time.

"Okay, okay, it's all me who is in this difficulty, and you have nothing to do with it, why are you still angry here?" Lu Yan looked at his brother's appearance with some tears and laughter, and comforted: "Don't worry, when you become a general, it is estimated that the new emperor has already succeeded to the throne, and the new emperor will still need to keep you to save face, in short, he will not make an example of you." ”

"Besides, Old Man Yao also has to give three points of face, the old man has gone through three dynasties, he is an old man, no matter which prince is it, he doesn't dare to embarrass Old Man Yao, let alone the only grandson of Old Man Yao?"

That's right! Shao Wu at least has an old man Yao to support him, but he has no one to help him anymore.

As long as Lu Yan thought that dozens of people up and down his Lu family had been killed by His Royal Highness the Prince, he was annoyed for a while, took a long breath, calmed down his mood, and opened his eyes.

"Didn't those people want to see my jokes? I just let them not see the joke and wait for me to come back in three months and see how I can slap those people in the face. ”

Let them know that I, Lu Yan, am not a reckless man who can only brute force!

The war on this side of the South China Sea seems to have begun to improve after Lu Yan's arrival, and the Japanese who fought one after another have been defeated and retreated, and at the same time, the morale of the soldiers in the barracks has been greatly boosted, and Lu Yan's position as the god of war has become more and more stable, and his reputation has become even greater.

Compared with the good news in the South China Sea, Beijing seems to be calm.

As in the past, the ministers of the DPRK and China went up and down all day long, talking about some things related to the people's livelihood, but they suddenly seemed to have a tacit understanding and never mentioned the war in the South China Sea.

Even the emperor seemed to have forgotten that there was still a war at the border, and for a while, there was a strange sense of harmony in the court.

However, this apparent calm was quickly broken.

Sure enough, as Lu Yan expected, just a month after the good news of the war, the barracks were about to run out of ammunition and food, but the grain and grass sent from the court had not arrived for a long time. I love

Although he was already mentally prepared, Lu Yan still underestimated those old foxes in the court, he didn't expect them to dare to really disobey the yang and the yin, and said that the three-month deadline was good, and he couldn't wait to kill them in the South China Sea after only a month?

"How much food is there in the army now, and how long can it last?"

Lu Yan rubbed his temples with a headache and asked the soldiers below.

Obviously, so much good news was passed on to the capital, but it was not able to usher in a word of commendation, and no one even asked.

"Back to the general, it's about enough for about seven days, if there is no bluegrass sent within seven days, the soldiers in the barracks are afraid that they will be hungry."

"Seven days...... Okay, I see, you go down first. ”

"Yes."

The man at the bottom retreated, and after a while another man hurried in, looking very angry.

"Brother Lu, those people are really too deceitful!"

Shao Wu naturally heard that the grain and grass in the barracks were about to run out, and he was very angry in his heart.

"The emperor didn't even say a word to me, is this also the emperor's acquiescence? How can these people be so shameless? Shao Wu was already short-tempered, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he said hatefully: "No, I want to write a letter to the old man in our family, and ask him to participate in those individuals above the court!" ”

"We are living a miserable life at the border, for what? It's not to protect the land of our Great Zhou Dynasty, in order to let the people live and work in peace and contentment, the people in the capital are good, one by one only cares about eating, drinking and having fun, drunk and dreaming of death, I will see if we really don't guard the border pass, wait until those widows enter the capital, see if they can still laugh one by one? ”

"It's good to say these things in front of me, don't go outside to say them, lest people say that you are a spy on the other side and say that you have different intentions."

Although Lu Yan was also a little angry in his heart, he was still able to calm down on his face.

"You wait, when we return to the capital after we win this battle, we must write down all these things in detail, even if the current emperor ignores them? The emperor is already old and decrepit, or he will abdicate soon, and the new emperor must be very dissatisfied with the dirty court now, and maybe he will use this hair to make a big purge of the people in the court. ”

"Whoever has the last laugh will depend on this time."

That's right.

Shao Wu felt that these words made sense, nodded his head lightly, and then continued to ask: "Brother Lu, what should I do about the grain and grass?" Are we really going to sit back and wait? Is there really nothing to be done now? ”
