"The Child's Companion?"

Song Huizong took it over as soon as possible.

Although Jiang Chen smeared Tong Guan many times, it did not hinder Song Huizong's love and trust in Tong Guan.

Seeing this, He Zhizhong immediately said coldly, "Hmph! Is this Fang La's escape, or Zhu Mian can't hold on?

The official family had obviously had a holy will before, and sent Jiang Chen and Master Gao to quell the chaos, are you trying to force the official family to go back on their word?"

"What a mistake!"

Cai Jing shook his head and said, "The so-called matter is urgent! Now the western camp is in urgent need of rectification, and Gao Yu needs to guard the Beijing division, and he must not leave lightly; As for Jiang Chen, there are no soldiers available in his hands now.

If they wait until they are busy with the things in hand, once Fang La becomes bigger again, or affects the autumn grain from all over the south of the Yangtze River to enter Beijing, thus delaying the conquest of Liao, who will bear this responsibility?"

"You ......"

He Zhizhong glared angrily.

When Zheng Juzhong, Gao Yu and others heard this, they also choked together.

They all knew that Cai Jing and Ying Andao were lying, but there was nothing they could do. Otherwise, Cai Jing would definitely blame them for Zhu Mian's failure to successfully quell the chaos.

So, everyone looked at Jiang Chen expectantly.

And Song Huizong's gaze at Jiang Chen was a little difficult, Tong Guan, an absolute confidant, begged earnestly, and he really couldn't bear to refuse.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen secretly shook his head in disappointment and said with a smile: "If what Lord Ying and Cai Xiang said is true, and the rebellion of Fang La is really calm, it is a great thing!

However, now that the rebellion in Bianjing has not been settled, the traitor Han Hu has not yet been arrested, and most of the Japanese army and Jimin army commanded by Zhang Shuye and Lord Zhang are not in Bianjing, I am afraid that it is not appropriate to mobilize too many troops and horses to quell the chaos."

As he spoke, Jiang Chen looked at Ying Andao with a smile on his face and asked, "Lord Ying, just now you said that most of the traitors have already returned to the imperial court, and Fang La has also fled in a hurry, I don't know how many soldiers and horses Fang La still has now?"

"This ......"

Ying Andao was asked stupidly.

Fang La was not only not defeated, but still had more than 400,000 soldiers and horses, but in the current situation, if he reported this number, wouldn't it be a contradiction?

Just not knowing how to answer, Gao Yu smiled playfully:

"Judging from the experience of this officer in the Western Army for several years in the frontier, under the condition that the main force is wiped out, the number of fleeing people should be less than 10,000. Otherwise, it's a deception!"

"No, there was no deception!"

Ying Andao hurriedly denied it and explained, "Zhu Jianshi did use the invincible trick of showing the enemy to beat Fang La to the point of embarrassment and escape!

But the soldiers in Fang La's hands, raising the hoe as a soldier, put down the hoe to serve the people, it is really difficult to accurately count the number of people.

In addition, there are many bandits and bandits who are attached, and if they want to complete their work in one battle, Zhu Tingshi thinks that it is best for the imperial court to send an army of 100,000 to ensure that nothing goes wrong!"

"An army of 100,000?"

"Are you sure Fang La is defeated?"

Song Huizong and the civil and military officials all changed their faces when they heard this.

Cai Jing hurriedly explained: "The 100,000 troops did not all go to quell the rebellion, but mainly to escort the grain and grass from all over the south of the Yangtze River back to Beijing.

Although the Jiangnan Rebellion has temporarily subsided, in order not to give the rebels a chance to breathe and prevent the repetition of the rebellious people, Zhu Mian divided his army to encircle and suppress it, and there are no extra soldiers in his hands."

"It takes 100,000 troops to transport grain and grass? Cai Xiang: Is it because we don't know anything about the military?"

He Zhizhong sneered: "When the grain and grass of the 100,000 army are prepared, Jiang Chen's Jimin Army has already returned from suppressing the bandits, and the matter of the West Camp is enough to calm down, just shoot Jiang Chen and Gao Yu to lead the troops forward, why do you need to make the officials go back?"

"Not bad! What he said is very true!"

Zheng Juzhong, Li Gang and the others nodded in agreement.

"Send some more soldiers and horses just to be prepared!

Don't you want the Jiangnan Rebellion to be completely quelled as soon as possible? Or is it selfish and obsessed with the work of quelling the chaos?"

Cai Jing first shouted reprimand

, then looked at Jiang Chen with a mocking expression and said, "As for the grain and grass, you don't have to worry!

Recently, many members of the Royal Chamber of Commerce have sent reserve grain to Yuqing Villa, which is enough for the food and grass needs of 100,000 troops, and there is no need for additional preparations."

"Huh!"

You are an old immortal, you don't want to do something practical for the country and the people all day long, so you think about the three melons and two dates in my hand, it's really interesting!

Jiang Chen laughed angrily, knowing that Cai Jing wanted to provoke him, so he took the initiative to jump into the pit.

He Zhizhong didn't realize Cai Jing's sinister intentions, and retorted, "Since there is enough food and grass, and there are enough available soldiers, why don't you just send Jiang Chen to lead the army?

In this way, it will not delay the work of quelling the chaos, and it will not cause the officials to lose their words, and will not kill two birds with one stone?"

"No! It's not right!"

Jiang Chen's eyelids jumped in shock, for fear that Cai Jing would instigate Song Huizong to agree, so he hurriedly spoke out against it.

Let him lead Tong Guan's cronies to quell the chaos, Jiang Chen felt that he would probably die before Zhu Mian, so he glanced at He Zhizhong with a painful look, and said to Song Huizong:

"Master, since ancient times, generals don't know soldiers, and soldiers don't know generals, it's a taboo for soldiers! In order to quell the Jiangnan Rebellion as soon as possible, the disciples were willing to give this great achievement to Cai Xiang and Lord Liu.

However, the grain reserves of the Royal Chamber of Commerce were far less sufficient than Cai Xiang expected, barely enough for two months of an army. (One army is one capital, 25,000 men)"

"It's just a matter of escorting grain and grass and annihilating the remnants, just recruit some people along the way, one army is enough!"

Gao Yu understood Jiang Chen's worries and thoughts after a little thought, and as he spoke, he looked at Ying Andao and Cai Jingdao meaningfully: "Unless Fang La is not defeated at all!"

"What do you mean, Lord Gao? This official and Zhu Tingshi and countless other Jiangnan officials have seen it with their own eyes, can they still be fake?"

Ying Andao was anxious, and looked at Cai Jing with a look of help.

Cai Jing chuckled, "It's okay! If there is not enough grain and grass in Yuqing Villa, you can first requisition it from the household department, and now it is the autumn harvest season, and there is no shortage of food."

"Hehe, Cai Xiang is really generous in order to protect Zhu Mian."

He Zhizhong looked disdainful, and asked in a cold voice: "Now that the autumn grain from Jiangnan and Lianghuai has not yet entered Beijing, you will take all the reserve grain of the household department to help Zhu Mian quell the chaos, once there is an accident, resulting in a shortage of food in Bianjing in winter, can you bear the responsibility?" Don't you want to force the people of Bianjing to rebel?"

"What do you mean by quelling the chaos for Zhu Mian? Jiangnan is the Jiangnan of the official family, the Jiangnan of the Great Song Dynasty! What you say is true that there is no king and no father!"

Cai Jing immediately quarreled with He Zhizhong.

Cai Jing's younger brothers also joined in one after another, which made the whole birthday banquet style change suddenly.

Song Huizong frowned when he saw it, raised his hand to stop, "Okay! Since Liangchen had no intention of fighting for merit, then I sent Liu Yanqing and Xin Xingzhong to each lead an army to Jiangnan to assist Zhu Mian in quelling the rebellion."

As he spoke, he glared at everyone again and said, "Today is the queen's birthday, don't talk about state affairs again!"
