Chapter 182, Change of Commander
Pushing all the people around him away, Tang Zhengquan stood up from his seat suddenly, trembling with anger, and said angrily: "Where are those beasts now, where are they?"
The reporter was so frightened that his voice became even quieter: "Dashuai, the war was originally decided, General Zuo Mu led the troops to arrest those shameless people, but those guys did not return to the camp at all, and disappeared directly on the battlefield, General Zuo Mu asked the villain to ask the marshal, the rest of the people, are they..."
The rest of the words were not uttered by the reporting officer.
Tang Zhengquan laughed and said hatefully: "Okay, they all ran away, it seems that they have been prepared, you go and notify Zuo Mou and check all the sergeants in each battalion, as long as you find that there are mortals impersonating, the battalion will kill all the generals above the battalion, go!"
The newspaper officer shouted the order, turned around and walked out of the tent, and when he was about to leave the big tent, Tang Zhengquan suddenly shouted: "Slow, come back!"
The reporter didn't understand why the marshal called him back again, and hurriedly turned around: "What else does the marshal command?"
Tang Zhengquan sat on the chair decadently, thought for a long time, and said slowly: "Forget it, let Zuo Mu withdraw his troops and return to the camp, there are mortals in the barracks pretending, let Lord Tang secretly investigate, once it is verified, the battalion can be transferred to the rear camp, and no action is allowed." ”
The newspaper officer was very surprised, and did not dare to ask more, so he was ordered to leave the big tent.
Tang Zhengquan is really afraid of those uncles now, in this situation, how dare he turn his face with them with great fanfare.
He believes that as long as there is just some action here, those uncles will definitely be scattered, and they can stay there and wait for you to cut off your head, think too much!
In addition, even if he doesn't run, does he dare to cut all these people together, dare to offend so many state pastors at one time, just kidding, unless he is also crazy!
Chen Haotian and Tang Zhengquan were relatively speechless through the communication token.
The former has calmed down from his anger, he is a person who attaches great importance to manners, and always tries to maintain his self-cultivation in front of his subordinates.
But today he made an exception, when he learned that there were mortals pretending to be monks in his army, and when he knew that the first battle was so ridiculous, Chen Haotian could no longer control his emotions.
He was furious, and in his rage, he wanted to personally crusade against the duplicitous hypocrites.
Tang Zhengquan was naturally bitterly comforted, and after calming down a little, Chen Haotian fell into a deep helplessness.
The old prime minister is right, now he is in trouble both internally and externally, with the worries of Mu Jinyun inside, and the danger of the Tianwei country outside, what ability can he see the truth with those old immortals.
Those old guys dared to fool themselves so blatantly under their noses, obviously they didn't take him seriously.
It can be expected that as long as he makes a slight move, those old guys will dare to immediately rebel under the banner of Tianze, and this evil breath can only be endured if he doesn't want to.
Chen Haotian was very depressed in his heart, and it was estimated that soon, the news of his defeat in the first battle would spread throughout the entire immortal world.
In order not to lose his victory, Mu Jinyun would definitely not declare that there were many mortals in the opponent's army, and he would not be able to win.
And here, for the sake of face, in order not to become the laughing stock of the whole world, and even more unable to tell the truth, he had to pinch his nose and swallow this evil breath, thinking of this, Chen Haotian suddenly had a feeling of vomiting blood.
In fact, Tang Zhengquan still had a thought in his heart, that is, to blame Chen Haotian for being in a hurry to change the country name.
Tang Zhengquan knew that Chen Haotian's move was to block everyone's back road, so that everyone had to live and die with him.
But is it really good to do this? For those princes who are old and sophisticated, can they be willingly tied to the chariot of Chen Haotian?
In Tang Zhengquan's heart, he still hopes that Chen Haotian can leave a way back for others, this is not for his own consideration, he must live and die together with the king, but the king can't expect everyone to be as loyal as him.
People are selfish, and sometimes, if you leave him a way back, he will help you to the greatest extent.
As far as these princes are concerned, under the banner of Tianze, who to help or not to help is only a matter of position, and it does not involve national enmity.
Once they are forced to make a choice between Tianze and Tianrui, it is conceivable what some old fritters will do.
Today's situation is also forced out by Chen Haotian in a certain aspect, of course, Tang Zhengquan never dared to say these words.
The local officials have heavy troops, once they decide to do something that is contrary to the yang and the yin, what can the court do with them?
Once upon a time, Chen Haotian and Tang Zhengquan were very envious of the military reform in the south, believing that it was the best way to deprive the princes of their military power and control the army in the Wang family.
Chen Haotian also once sighed that after his nephew went to the mortal realm for reincarnation, his brain was much more flexible than before, and he was able to come up with such a good way.
Chen Haotian and Tang Zhengquan had carefully studied how to implement this law in the north, but the result of the study was completely infeasible.
The north is not as good as the south, the south is not broken or standing, the southern seven states are completely reshuffled, and Mu Jinyun can easily implement his decision.
But the north is not good, many state pastors in the north are self-respecting, and they have long been disobedient to the control of the imperial court, and it is already very good not to cause trouble to Chen Haotian in ordinary times, you still want to deprive him of his military power, you see if he will do it against you!
Chen Haotian sighed and asked, "Zhengquan, what should I do now?"
Tang Zhengquan said: "King, the old minister has thought twice and decided to resign from the post of marshal!"
Chen Haotian was surprised and said: "Why did Zhengquan say this, this battle is not the fault of the war, it is not the crime of Zhengquan, you are the minister of this king, why don't you want to abandon me and ignore it?"
Tang Zhengquan hurriedly explained: "The king misunderstood, the old minister wants to step down from the post of marshal, not to leave the king, and the old minister will not leave the king until he dies." ”
"Then what does Zhengquan mean by that?"
"The king didn't know that after this fiasco, the old minister was angry and angry, and the old minister was afraid that this body would not be able to support it, and at that time, wouldn't he miss the king's major affairs! The old minister wanted the king to find a commander again, and the old minister was willing to be a staff member and give him advice. ”
Chen Haotian nodded, he knew that Tang Zhengquan had been holding on, this time the old illness had recurred, and his body was not as good as before, it was indeed time to change the coach.
It's just that who else can be replaced, he thought about all the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and felt that they were not as reassuring as Tang Zhengquan, so he had no idea for a while, and muttered: "Zhengquan, I know your situation, but now there is no one to change, who else can take on this important responsibility in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty?"
Tang Zhengquan said with a smile: "There is one person who can take on this responsibility, the king, the old minister recommends a person to you, this person has an earth-shattering strategy, the talent of the country and the country, it is not an exaggeration to call him the pillar of the country, why did the king forget him?"
Chen Haotian was confused when he heard this, do I have this kind of talent under my hands, why don't I know!
Suddenly remembering something, he asked tentatively, "You mean..."
Tang Zhengquan nodded heavily, and replied with convincing words: "That's right, it's the eldest prince, if you are not the eldest prince, you can't reverse the situation, please take the overall situation first, the king thinks twice!"
Chen Haotian was silent, Tang Zhengquan was right, who else in this Manchu Dynasty can catch up with his eldest son?
It's just that he always has a grudge against this eldest son, and he looks down on him in every way, so he can't help but hesitate and say: "That rebel, is he okay?"
Tang Zhengquan said in a sincere tone: "The king, if the prince is not good, this Manchu Dynasty is even more unfeasible, it is worth the plan of life and death, I hope that the king will abandon distracting thoughts, everything is important to the overall situation, if the king is gracious, the old minister is willing to be a lobbyist for the king, please go out of the mountain to help the king!"
Chen Hao Tiansi thought for a long time, and then said helplessly: "Okay, according to what you said, you will go to him in person, and say that this king wants to ask him to go out of the mountain to help me, if he is willing to come, this king will appoint him as the commander of the army, and Zhengquan can be used as a deputy marshal to assist him." ”
Tang Zhengquan commanded loudly: "The king is wise, please rest assured, the old minister will definitely persuade the eldest prince to go out of the mountain to help, as long as the eldest prince is willing to go out of the mountain, he will not let Mu Jinyun Xiao'er continue to run rampant." ”
Chen Haotian sighed, didn't say anything more, and raised his hand to interrupt the communication.
Two major events have happened in the Jade Immortal Realm recently, the first major event, the first battle of Chenhaotian's Southern Expedition was defeated and lost, and the strength of the lost troops has undergone earth-shaking changes, from an absolute advantage to a slight advantage.
The people in the south were beaming and rushed to tell each other, the people in the north were worried and demoralized, and many people even began to fight Xiao Jiujiu and think about their future.
The second major event, Chen Haotian used the eldest prince Qi Jinwan as the commander, and Tang Zhengquan was demoted to the deputy commander, commanding the army in front and continuing to fight to the death with Mu Jinyun.
Mu Jinyun and the civil and military ministers have returned to the camp outside the Guan, the place of Jiayin Pass is narrow, Mu Jinyun is very uncomfortable, and decided to leave Jiayin Pass temporarily.
At this time, in the big tent of the Chinese army in the big camp, Mu Jinyun and the members of the military staff cabinet were gathering together to discuss things.
When he heard that Qi Jinwan was going to replace Tang Zhengquan, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "This eldest prince should be Chen Haotian's son, why is he not surnamed Chen, but surnamed Qi?"
Yi Pei replied with a smile: "The king doesn't know, there is another allusion here. ”
Mu Jinyun sighed, and the gossip was overflowing, and he immediately asked: "What allusion, you can tell me." ”
Yi Pei said with a smile: "Great King, this matter should have happened a long time ago, at that time, Tianze Kingdom was still unified, and Tianwei and Tiansui joined forces together, and fought with Tianyuan Kingdom for many years! At that time, Chen Haotian was still a general in the hands of the king's father, and at that time, that guy was for Tianze Kingdom, and it could be regarded as sacrificing his life for righteousness!"
"After a great war, Chen Haotian was unfortunately captured by the Marquis of Wuwei, and the king's father was reluctant to let his brother be poisoned, so he sent an envoy to negotiate, wanting to redeem Chen Haotian with a heavy amount of money. Unexpectedly, the condition offered by the Marquis of Wu Wei was to ask my Tianze Kingdom to cooperate with the Tianyuan Kingdom to jointly exterminate Tianwei and Tiansui countries, how could the boss agree to this condition, and the negotiations ended unhappily!"
