Chapter 147: The Supreme Military and Political Council (I)
The high-ranking members of the Liang army, after receiving Chen Shi's order, rushed to the General's Mansion from all over Dachong Pass.
In less than an hour, the council hall in the palace was already overcrowded, and the people who came were the highest officials in all aspects of the Liang Army.
They all knew that the sudden convening of such a meeting at this time would inevitably require a big move, so although the hall was crowded, it was very quiet.
In the center of the council hall, there was a thick solid wood long table, which was very rare in this world, and Chu He felt that it was a bit like the kind of table that the company held in his previous life.
The reason why Chen Shi designed it this way is to make the participants more gathered and facilitate the discussion.
The general Chen Shi sat in the innermost main seat, and on the left and right sides of his subordinate position, it was Chu He, the new commander of Liangzhou, and Xu Conghu, the commander of the Hundred Tigers Battalion.
These two people are the well-deserved second and third people in the Liang Army now, and as for who is second and who is three, there is no conclusion yet.
Sitting down next are the other seven main generals of the old eighth battalion except Xu Conghu.
Kuishan Ying Duan Jaw, Jinjia Ying Wang Minglun, Bai Yu Ying Di Yansheng, Jiuli Ying Chujiang, these four are all old acquaintances of Chu He.
He Jun, the leader of the daily camp, is a young man with a resolute face and a strong body, but because of the matter of his brother He Cong, he has never been in contact with Chu He and their faction.
Then there are the two old generals, Shen Duo, the commander of the Sichuan Battalion, and Lu Dafeng, the commander of the Guarding Battalion, are all old-fashioned characters like Wang Minglun, although they are not young, they are in good physical condition, and it is not a problem to go into battle to kill the enemy.
When these two first came in, they all showed favor to Chu He and praised him as a young hero.
Cui Qingshan, the former Liangzhou commander-in-chief and the old-fashioned big brother, did not attend today's meeting, and he had already publicly stated that he, the old man, fully supported all the actions of the new commander-in-chief Chu He.
Moreover, Cui Qingshan bluntly said that the organization of the old faction of the Liang army no longer exists, and now there is only the Chu faction, and in the near future, there will be no more factions in the Liang army.
Except for the ten bigwigs Chen Shi, Chu He, and the old eight camp masters, the rest of the people were not qualified to go to the table, but they also all had chairs around both sides of the long table.
Jiang Wuxian was also there, while Wang Du was not qualified to attend the meeting.
"Ahem." Chen Shi coughed lightly twice, and the hall was quieter, and the needle drop could be heard.
"I summoned everyone here today, and I think we all know what is going on. The king of Sheng Guo is a ruthless character, the cultivation of moving mountains, and the 100,000 pro-army known as the first elite, It really gives me a headache, and his threat to us is not comparable to Zhou Shikai's stupid pig. ”
There was a chuckle in the hall, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed.
The Liang army was not belligerent, and basically most of the wars were provoked by the Sheng country. But he is definitely not afraid of war, there are not a few militants like Xu Conghu, otherwise he would not have the support of so many people in the army.
"Everyone, what do you think about this big war, tell me." Chen Shi glanced at everyone and smiled.
Almost everyone looked at Chu He and Xu Conghu, hoping that the two of them would set a tone first.
Of course, it is best that these two people can have the same views, and neither of them wants to engage in any partisan disputes at this time.
Unexpectedly, neither of them expressed their opinions.
Chu He looked at everyone with a smile, without the slightest intention of speaking. Xu Conghu looked up at the sky, as if none of this had anything to do with him.
Seeing that no one spoke, Wang Minglun, who had a hot temper, naturally couldn't bear it, and said directly: "General, if you don't have any opinions on this, just get them directly." ”
Chen Shi looked at Wang Minglun, as if he was looking at his younger brother, with a little resentment in his kindness, "Get them, it's easy to say, the key is how to get them." Don't end up with someone else, but put yourself in it. It's okay for us old men, we have fought all our lives, and if we die on the battlefield, we will die a well-deserved death. But there are so many young people, who not only want to live, but also to win. ”
While speaking, Chen Shi also stretched out his finger and pointed at Xu Conghu and Chu He, the young people in his words were naturally talking about them.
Wang Minglun listened to Chen Shi's words, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he lowered his head and stopped talking.
Because he found that the great general, who had followed him all his life, was really old. And he seems to be getting old.
Chen Shi has to be strong in his life, when did he say a dead word?
Originally, Shen Duo of the Containment Camp and Lu Dafeng of the Guarding Battalion, who wanted to say a few words, glanced at each other, and swallowed back the words that came to their mouths.
They understood that today's protagonists were young people like Di Yansheng, and the protagonists of the upcoming battle were no longer them.
There are many old-fashioned figures in the council hall, all of whom are in high positions, and they are naturally well-versed in affairs, and they know that from now on, the home of this Liangjun will be taken by young people.
Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, Chu He looked at He Jun with a smile, "General He, can you tell me?" ”
No matter what, He Jun couldn't have imagined that Chu He would ask his head. Before, because of He Cong's matter, he always had some dislike between him and Chu He and Jiang Wuxian, and he was even ready to be snubbed and excluded if Chu He took the position.
"Ah...... What do I think? ”
Chu He still had that smile on his face, "Yes, General He has any high opinions, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
He Jun finally calmed down, stopped thinking nonsense, and said: "In my opinion, this battle with the Chi King will be a bitter battle unseen in twenty years. ”
As soon as He Jun spoke, everyone's eyes were attracted.
"Han Jun, the king of Chi, not only moved mountains and cultivated himself, but also proficient in the art of war, in charge of the military department, and was known as the handsome talent of the Shengguo once in a century. As the general said, even if they are both one-word kings, such a character is by no means comparable to Zhou Shikai's stupid pig. ”
"Over the years, we have been fighting with Zhou Shikai for a long time, although there are many small battles, but there are almost no big battles. Just the previous battle of the River Drum Road, it was ...... It was also successfully resolved, so ......"
Speaking of this, He Jun hesitated.
Seeing that Chen Shi didn't mean to speak, Chu He opened his mouth to speak, "General He doesn't have to worry about anything, but it's okay to say it." ”
He Jun nodded, and his impression of Chu He changed a little.
"So in my opinion, our Liangjun has been too comfortable all these years. It's like a male lion, locked up with a flock of sheep, eating one a day, although life is getting better and better, but the body is getting fatter and fatter. Until one day, it met a tiger ......"
He Jun didn't continue, but he had already made it clear, he poured a basin of cold water on the adults present, telling them to calm down.
Now, here comes the tiger.
