Chapter 9 Solicitation of Old Ministries

Of course, whether it is marching to fight or fighting, or being a person or doing things, you need to always consider the whole thing with the worst possibility and take action, the so-called preparedness, otherwise it is easy to be caught off guard.

The only difference between Gao Raccoon dog is that it is worse here, where could he have expected that so much time has passed, and the general Xu Jintang is using extremely bloody means to purge the diehards in the army, and he is sending close people to the army to brainwash people on a large scale, and he is deliberately breaking up the teams and reorganizing the organization, but he still failed to replace the original Youzhou military heart with only loyal to him Xu Jintang alone, loyal to the Xu family's belief, completely used for his own purposes.

Today's battle, it should have been a needle against Maimang, and it was impossible to say that the losses on both sides would be not small, but before the real fight started, this side was actually said by the other party to surrender first, and what is even more ridiculous is that before leaving, Gao Raccoon was also full of confidence that this battle was bound to be a shame, completely shattering the delusion of this kid surnamed Lu, but he never thought that he himself had become a big joke, and he ran away in disgrace without waiting for the fight.

Among the 8,000 or so people, about 2,000 people fled with the raccoon dog in the end, they were all completely loyal to Xu Jintang, and when they saw that they were invincible, they naturally fled, and the thousands of people left behind, the meaning is naturally self-evident, not to mention being loyal to the imperial court, at least, they are unwilling to be used as a gunman by Xu Jintang for no reason.

Lu Dengyun rode his horse to the front, then he turned over and dismounted directly, and stood in front of everyone with a majestic face, and when the others saw this, they didn't dare to look at him condescendingly, and they all dismounted, and the tense atmosphere was also eased.

"Who's in charge here?"

Lu Dengyun casually put away the tiger head sword at his waist, and at the same time shouted at the thousands of people on the opposite side.

After a long time, in the front team, more than ten people finally came out of the crowd one after another, these are all old people who have both official positions and prestige qualifications in the army, and at this time, they are naturally elected to talk to Lu Dengyun on behalf of the thousands of people.

Lu Dengyun then fixed his eyes and looked surprised, because he found that there were many people he knew, and they had been comrades in the Tiger Ben Army before, and after these people made eye contact with him, they all naturally lowered their heads and did not dare to look at them.

"Lu Bai, General Lu, I'm guilty!"

I saw one of them, suddenly knelt down to Lu Dengyun with a fist, saying "guilty", which seemed to release a signal, and the other more than ten people saw this, and they also knelt down together, and they knelt together, and everyone behind them also followed together, kneeling towards Lu Dengyun in front, thousands of people shouted in unison, and the sound was deafening.

"General Lu, we are guilty!"

"If a person is not a sage, who can be without fault?"

Lu Dengyun's only shortcoming is that he eats soft and not hard, the other party is so low-profile, he is embarrassed to say anything else, he hurriedly stepped forward first, and helped up more than ten people one by one, and the other people behind him naturally stood up one after another, and when everyone stood up again, he was relieved: "You were just deceived by traitors before, and you haven't made a big mistake yet, and now the two armies have distinguished good and evil in front of the formation, and made the right choice, why are you wrong?"

When everyone heard this, they all bowed their heads and responded wordlessly, and after waiting for a while, Lu Dengyun had to take the initiative to ask again: "I don't know what your plans are next?"

In his mind, there are some words, even if they are asked knowingly, they have to be said directly and put on the surface, otherwise they will not be able to make rules.

The dozen or so people on the opposite side have obviously been thinking about this problem, and after a little groaning, looking at each other, after exchanging a few glances, some of the people who were elected as representatives hugged their fists towards Lu Dengyun, frowned, and asked very solemnly: "Dare to ask General Lu who came this time, whose order was it, and what was he asking for?"

When Lu Dengyun was asked, he was about to be stunned, and scolded loudly: "What kind of problem are you? What I represent is naturally the righteousness of the imperial court!"

After that, he continued to explain to the others in detail: "Previously, I and Lan joined the army and were forced to leave the Tiger Ben Army to flee, and then fortunately received the King of Hedong County, and this time I also had the order of the prince to bring troops to come, I have nothing else to ask for, one is to rein in the old department, revive the prestige of our Tiger Ben Army, and the other is to capture Xu Jintang, hand over to the imperial court, and return Youzhou to a stable place, and comfort the old general's spirit in the sky!"

As soon as these words came out, many people showed hesitation again, and some were in a dilemma.

As everyone knows, the general's mansion in Youzhou and the famous Youzhou army are complementary to each other, and the banners of the two border armies in Youzhou were left by the ancestors of the Xu family back then, just like the bloody army in Yanzhou, the word "draining blood" represents their former glory!

Although it has been hundreds of years since these names were called and known to now, and the people in the army are constantly changing, this banner belongs to their common glory, which is their generations, their ancestors and their own hard work!

The deep relationship between the Xu family and the Youzhou army lies in this, whether intentionally or unintentionally, in short, many soldiers only know the Xu family until now, and do not know the imperial court, which is the source of the prominent status of the Xu family, so that the imperial court will not dare to move them easily, but this is also the source of the Xu family's disaster.

The reason why Xu Jintang dared to cause trouble was because of the influence and management of these generations, and those who were unwilling to surrender to the Xu family, unwilling to rebel together, or who could distinguish between small righteousness and great righteousness, it is difficult to say that they dared to raise their swords to Xu Jintang, the Xu family, the generalissimo of Youzhou soldiers and horses, and did not look at it Until now, General Zuo has died, and the old people with enough qualifications such as General Right have not said that they stood up and raised their arms and shouted, openly opposing Xu Jintang, and stabilizing the situation in Youzhou, the root cause is here.

Seeing that everyone bowed their heads and didn't answer, they didn't make a statement at all, Lu Dengyun was not a fool, so he naturally understood their worries, and immediately said: "Everyone hesitates, I can understand, I don't want to force this kind of thing, but I want to ask, what you take on weekdays is all the food sent by the imperial court, and the food is all the food allocated by the imperial court, is it possible that you still want to continue to help the abuse, listen to the words of the traitor, be blinded by it, and use the knife against your real parents and benefactors?"

There are some truths that they know and know, understand and understand, and they will say it, but they just can't do it, all living beings are suffering, and that's it, they really don't know what Xu Jintang is going to do, of course they know, otherwise they can't stay, but they are caught in this dilemma, very confused, and don't know what to do to save themselves.

Someone immediately in front of me asked: "We don't want to be that traitor and traitor, and we will be stinking for thousands of years, so I ask General Lu to point out a clear way for us!"

Lu Dengyun nodded, obviously very satisfied with the other party's answer, and pointed out: "If you go back like this, you will definitely be coerced by traitors, and you will become the enemy of the battlefield in the future, if you really want to get out of this realm, it is better to listen to my words, go to Huangsha County, under the command of the prince, fight against the enemy, give full play to the true colors of the border army, and ensure the safety of my Daliang side, so as not to live up to the cultivation of you by the imperial court!"

Let these people merge with themselves and run to fight with their original comrades, they must be unwilling, but if you want to let them go directly against Xu Jintang, they don't dare, nor do they want to, then it is difficult for the strong people to do it anyway, but they can't simply let them go back, after all, if these people run back unscathed, then they can't be said to be enemies on the battlefield, in this case, why let the tiger return to the mountain, it is better to drive them to Huangsha County, since you are not willing to toss in the troubled waters of Youzhou, then go and fight the enemy people, this is not a difficult thing。

Seeing that the people in front of him still bowed their heads and remained silent, and never said anything, Lu Dengyun suddenly slapped the sword on his waist and said angrily: "Why, you want me to point out, but you don't want to do it horizontally or vertically, what do you mean by this? Could it be that in fact, there is also a rebellion, and you want to join forces with Xu Jintang and others? Then why say more, don't say that I don't miss the old feelings, I am alone today, kill me, you leave by yourself, I can't stop you!"

Seeing that he was really angry, these people on the other side were startled, and immediately followed and persuaded: "Why should General Lu be angry, we just need some time to think." ”

"Yes, yes!"

"General Lu, please forgive us some time, let's think about it. ”

"That's right!"

Let them change their masters inexplicably, it is indeed difficult for strongmen, after all, this new master, they have never even seen it, if you want to say what kind of right general, prestige, whether it is enough qualifications or ability, then of course they are willing to follow the left and right, to be honest, if the right general suddenly figured it out now, ran out to gather the old department, and raised his arms, the whole Youzhou is afraid that it will be a mess of porridge, and even Xu Jintang can't hold it down, but the old man himself can't get over the hurdle in his heart.

Lu Dengyun didn't buy it, and immediately shouted loudly: "What else do you need to think of? Let me ask you, has the imperial court ever treated you badly? What you need to eat, but which one is not the best? Now that we are in great trouble, you want to get out of the matter when you eat and wipe it off? Tell me yourself, where in the world is there such a simple good thing as just eating and not being responsible?"

After repeated questioning, he was particularly puzzled, and continued: "Is it still necessary for me to teach you such a simple truth? Defend the family and defend the country' four words, Yanzhou was hot before, we just watched, now everyone has hit Liangzhou, he Xu Jintang, as the generalissimo of Youzhou soldiers and horses, the courtier of Da Liang, does not want to hurry up to report the country to the enemy, and even has to make trouble for the court in turn, to rebel, is there anything more unreasonable in the world?"

"Besides, the prince is the son and son of today's saint, and the mother concubine is one of the four imperial concubines, with an orthodox background, a respected status, and was named the king of Hedong County, and to put it simply, the entire Hedong County should have been his, but His Majesty remembered the merits of his ancestors Xu Jintang and did not want to act like this, but the court has already given in so much, but he Xu Jintang is not grateful, and he still wants to commit chaos at such a time, so disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous treacherous people, do you still want to be with him? If you don't choose the Lord to make amends, do you want to wait until the end of the future where you will be scolded by thousands of people?"

Lu Dengyun is a straightforward person, but in fact, he is coarse and detailed, and he knows the general situation, knows the righteousness, and has his own set of principles for doing things, otherwise, Gu Xuan will not always want to win him over.

The ability alone is enough, but if he is treacherous and cunning, and has no principles of justice, it is impossible for him to enter Gu Xuan's eyes, and he will have to take it down and kill it, so as to avoid future troubles as soon as possible.

Lu Dengyun knew the concerns of these people, and scolded and scolded him, while waking up the other party, he also shaped Gu Xuan's "orthodox" identity.

These people actually have no way to serve the country, and they don't want to rebel with Xu Jintang, but they have nowhere to go, you can show them where to go, but because of their original pride, they are still not willing to go, and now Lu Dengyun wants to elevate Gu Xuan's identity, so as to convince these people.
