Chapter 426: Deception
Zhu Quan looked stunned, and said for a long time,
"Fourth brother, did I say that the guards on your side all talk to you like this?"
"The two of them are different, and they are not my fourth brother's bodyguard, if you have to count them, they should be my saviors."
Zhu Di picked up the freshly written fold and looked at it.
Zhu Quan nodded as if he didn't understand, and handed the excerpt he had written to Dao Yan,
"Master, help me see, can you write like this?"
"Then you're welcome, let's take a look."
Dao Yan took it.
Zhu Quan turned around and asked Zhu Di again,
"Fourth brother, I still don't know anything about my junior brother, why does that Yan Sanwei worship you so much? It is inconceivable that a group of people like them could submit to someone. ”
"Well, it's because the fourth brother and I are friends with them."
Zhu Di said with a smile......
Li Jinglong, who was a famous general, led an army of 500,000 to conquer and suppress, but he also suffered a fiasco, and when the battle report arrived in front of him, Huang Zicheng was really stunned.
It's incredible, you can lose like this, even if the other party is the "Northern God of War" Yan King Zhu Di, he won't lose so badly, or because of the weather, maybe, after all, Zhu Di has been stationed in the north for nearly 20 years and is used to the environment there, while Li Jinglong has been growing up in the south and can't adapt to it for a while...... But what is the explanation for throwing so much weight at others......
While he was thinking about it here, Zitai walked in,
"Lord Huang, what's wrong? Why are you in a daze? ”
"Isn't it because of that General Li?"
Huang Zicheng said angrily,
"Haven't you heard that if you give him 500,000 horses and horses, you can defeat the battle?"
"Of course I heard about it, I'm a secretary of the military department, how can I not know the battle report ahead? But this Li Jinglong was defeated, what is Lord Huang going to do? Withdraw him? ”
Qi Tai doesn't look as troubled as Huang Zicheng, but it's no wonder, anyway, it's not him who recommended Li Jinglong, so naturally he doesn't have to take this responsibility.
Seeing that the other party not only looked relaxed, but also had a little schadenfreude, Huang Zicheng was really a little angry, and finally suppressed the anger, said,
"Withdraw him? So who else can be sent? Even if we can find someone to replace him, don't forget that we have already changed generals once, and in just a few months, we have changed commanders three times, is there still a military heart to speak of! ”
"What is Lord Huang anxious about, if you don't change it, you won't change it, but how are you going to explain the answer from the emperor's side?"
Qi Tai still said unhurriedly.
Huang Zicheng glanced at him and said,
"The emperor will naturally have a way to explain it, but Lord Qi, you are the secretary of the military department, don't think you can leave it out."
"I didn't think I could stay out of it, but I came to discuss it with Lord Huang."
Qi Tai replied coldly.
As soon as he said this, an attendant came to preach,
"Two adults, the emperor asked you two to go and talk back."
"Oh, got it,"
Huang Zi clarified and agreed, and looked at Qi Tai again,
"Okay, the emperor is calling, let's stop arguing here, let's go."
"Lord Huang, please first."
It was probably at this time that Qi Tai thought of his responsibility, and his face finally began to become serious......
When I saw Zhu Wei, it was obvious that his face was very bad, and the straightforward questioning really made people see that the blood of the Zhu family began to be reflected in him.
"Is Li Jinglong defeated?"
Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhu Wei stared at the two of them.
Seeing that Qi Tai seemed to be about to speak, Huang Zicheng hurriedly opened his mouth first,
"Back to the emperor, if strictly speaking, Cao Guogong has not been defeated."
"What does this mean, is there a non-strict statement?!"
Zhu Wei's tone sounded very angry.
Because he felt fresh about this statement, Qi Taisuo closed his mouth and listened to how Huang Zicheng said "defeated" as "not defeated".
Huang Zicheng looked very calm and bowed slightly,
"In fact, Cao Guogong's siege of Beiping City has always been smooth, and he almost won a big victory by taking it, but it was only because of some unexpected circumstances that it fell short."
"Accidents? What an accident! ”
Zhu Wei asked coldly.
Huang Zicheng seemed to have thought about it, so he replied like a stream,
"It's all because of the rebellion of the Daning defenders and the three guards of Duoyan that it led to the failure."
"Daning? Isn't that the fiefdom of King Ning? ”
Zhu Wei suddenly remembered the seventeenth uncle who disobeyed his holy will, and said angrily,
"Sure enough, he rebelled against me! Why don't you arrest him and bring him to Beijing? ”
"This ......"
Qi Tai replied with some embarrassment at this time,
"That's because, that King Ning has already defected to Zhu Di with his whole family, and he can't arrest him......"
"Sure enough!"
Zhu Wei gritted his teeth with hatred,
"There is only the fourth uncle in the eyes of these people, and they all want to revolve around the fourth uncle, and there is no emperor like me in their eyes!"
"The Emperor's ......"
Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai glanced at each other, and said in their hearts, this shouldn't be the point at the moment, but it is the key to find a way to deal with your fourth uncle Zhu Di. can see that the emperor is angry like this, so he has to let him dissipate his anger.
After a long period of work, Zhu Wei breathed a sigh of relief and said,
"So, what do you say next?"
"That's what the minister thinks,"
Huang Zicheng replied,
"Cao Guogong said that it is winter at this time, and most of the soldiers of our army are from the south, and the Yan army is not used to fighting in the north, so I plan to take a temporary break for a while, and wait for the next year to fight for Yan."
"That's right,"
Zhu Wei thought for a while and said,
"Okay, I will trust him again, and tell Li Jinglong not to let me down again."
"I understand."
Huang Zicheng knelt down again and bowed.
Leaving in front of Zhu Wei, Huang Zicheng gently wiped the cold sweat, Qi Tai glanced at him and sneered,
"Your General Li will be sure when he comes?"
"Alas, he's also from the family of famous generals, so he won't be defeated again and again,"
Huang Zicheng also said helplessly,
"Wait for the coming year, make up for Li Jinglong's grain and grass, and recruit some more people to be dispatched. And that Zhu Di only has tens of thousands of people under his command at best, although he won twice, there must be a fluke factor in it, I don't believe that he is really an immortal, then Li Jinglong is not good, and he will not be able to win more than ten times the strength of the enemy army. ”
"Having said that, the actual situation has to be seen on the battlefield,"
Qi Tai was still a little worried and said, but suddenly remembered something,
"By the way, yes, don't say I didn't remind you, you have to tell Li Jinglong well, don't let him say that he was defeated in the song, since the lies have been told, you have to speak in a unified voice, right?"
I want to talk about "Yan Feng Xiao Jinling" with more like-minded people, " ", talk about life, and find a confidant~
