"Father, the three of us, although we have not personally experienced, and we still belong to the level of talking on paper, but Erchen firmly believes that although we are not worthy of the Prince of the South China Sea, but the sum of the three of us is definitely better than an ordinary general, the war in Northern Xinjiang is now in a stalemate stage, the Maodun army and the defenders united by us and Hu Lun'er, no one can help anyone, our side, if a new force suddenly comes, the confrontation situation will be broken immediately, and the possibility of our side winning will also greatly increase."

The new prince's request for war was immediately opposed by all the courtiers, and the death of the eldest prince cast a heavy shadow on everyone's hearts, and no one dared to let him fall into danger again.

"Father, the son was suddenly elected as the prince, the courtiers did not say anything, but what do they think of me in their hearts, needless to say, I also know, they are not able to trust me, think that the son can assist His Majesty, handle the country's affairs, father, this war, if the son is in danger, it proves that the son is arrogant and unacceptable, and he will not be able to be the king of a country in the future, and if the son is really capable and victorious, not only the courtiers will be impressed by the ability of the son, but the son himself also has the confidence to deal with national affairs, father, When you came back from the western Xinjiang, you were not very old, but you could take over the emperor to deal with national affairs, all of which were handy, appropriate and thoughtful. ”

When Emperor Yongchang heard his son's praise of almost admiration, it was like eating ice in the summer, and his heart was refreshed, which was more useful than listening to Dong Jincai's slanderous ministers.

When those people spoke, he also distinguished whether it was flattery or sincerity, and when his son spoke, he didn't even have to think about it, he knew that he was sincere.

Shen Mingyun listened to the prince's words on the side, and said in his heart that the eldest brother's ability is really not ordinary, and in less than half a year, he actually taught a young man who was lonely and self-admiring, so well-informed. Shen Mingzhao's advantages, one is loyalty to the court, and the second is that he is particularly good at the golden mean, which just greatly makes up for the shortcomings of the second prince.

The courtiers standing below also admired the prince's wit, although emotionally they were still very worried and did not dare to let the prince go to the battlefield, but intellectually, they were persuaded by the prince and felt that they should approve.

At this moment, Shen Mingzhao, who had always been silent, suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, since the prince said that he and the two sons of the Prince of Nanhai often talk about the art of war together, it is better to let those two also come to the palace and let a few veterans who are proficient in the art of war take a test. ”

Gao Tingfeng immediately went out of class and agreed, he thought to himself, no matter whether the prince wants to fight on behalf of the emperor or not, if you can see how smart and wise he is, it is also good, his age and body, it is very likely to become a veteran of the two dynasties, if the prince is not worthy of assistance, his stubborn temper is better to return to his hometown as soon as possible to recuperate.

Wang Yingcheng is a newcomer, he likes to express his position the most on weekdays, but today he is a little undecided, the safety of the prince is related to the national system, and he must be cautious.

Dong Jincai didn't speak, he really hoped that the prince would take risks and go to northern Xinjiang, and he secretly prayed in his heart that it was best to have some accidents, but he was now being suspicious of the emperor, so the more he hoped for things, the more cautious he became, at this time, no one said that he supported it, and he didn't dare to take the lead.

Not long after, the two brothers Qian Chaoyang and Qian Chaohui were called to the court hall, and the two of them were together with the prince to be inspected by several veterans in the court.

Those people's skills are far inferior to Qian Jun's ability, but they are also familiar with military books, and their ability to talk about soldiers on paper is not low, they have come up with no less than a dozen questions based on previous combat examples and their own experience on the battlefield, but they have not been able to test three people, especially Qian Zhaohui, who is the most witty and agile, and his thinking is not leaky, which is surprising, even Emperor Yongchang couldn't help it, and asked him: "Didn't you follow the master to become a monk and practice?" ”

"Your Majesty, the master said that whether it is a war of the human race, or a Taoist war against evil spirits and catching demons, it is a battle, and the principle is the same, he taught me how to deal with those demons and monsters, and I found that it can be used to deal with the Tartar barbarians."

Remembering what Qian Zhaohui said when he returned to Beijing and met him, he still had thirty years of secular life, and Emperor Yongchang guessed that his half-immortal-like master must have anticipated the problems that Qian Zhaohui would face, and maybe what he taught was the theory of the art of war and warfare.

Junchen was in the side hall, had a simple lunch, and was busy until it was dark, the three young people persuaded hundreds of half-old men, before retreating from the court, Emperor Yongchang made up his mind, and ordered the veteran Liu An to be the marshal of the reinforcements, Qian Zhaohui as the deputy marshal, Qian Chaoyang as the vanguard, and the prince as the supervisor, three days later, with 70,000 soldiers and horses from the Beijing Division, to Yanbei Beiguan, and Shi Zhenzong's department to converge, and then from there the whole army of 100,000, rushed to the northern Xinjiang.

When it was dark, the ministers retired to their homes exhausted, and the holy decrees were issued one by one, and immediately, the grain and grass storehouses of the household department, and the bows, arrows, knives and guns of the military department were all busy, although those places were in the suburbs outside the capital, but the people of the whole capital seemed to see the scene of people shouting and neighing, and they were busy.

Wen Jin's heart was nervous and heavy, but the two sons were newborn calves who were not afraid of tigers, and they were busy preparing when they came out and went in, and the irrepressible excitement was written on their faces, especially Jin Jin, who originally let him be a pioneer, but who knew that the holy decree came down, but he was replaced by a marshal, Liu An became a deputy marshal, Qian Qian was a pioneer officer, and the father-in-law who passed the decree also explained a few words: "Lord Shen suggested to the emperor that King Renjun is more calm and reliable, Qian Zhaohui is brave and resolute, and it is better for you two to change it." The two young men grinned happily, but they didn't know that such a change was another layer of test for them, the soldiers and horses in the suburbs of Beijing were brought out by Liu An, and now, it can be said that there is a change of commander, will those people obediently obey the command? It can't be said that Wen Jin's concerns are unreasonable, on the day of the departure of the troops, the marshal was promoted at the beginning of the month, and the soldiers were ordered in the middle of the day, and the notice was good, but when it came to the school, there was chaos on the school field, the soldiers could not find the generals, and the soldiers could not find the soldiers, Qian Chaoyang sat on the high platform built up, seeing these, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, those who could not find the generals were deliberately late, and those who could not find the soldiers were hacked, his soldiers, someone deliberately notified the wrong place, why did this happen? Fools can guess - Liu An temporarily changed from a chief to a deputy position, and he felt uncomfortable, he couldn't tell if he made trouble, but several of his henchmen must have been involved in making trouble.
