Battle of Changping Chapter 247 Take the king's order to reprimand Lou Chang
What kind of honor is this, it's a shame!
The so-called ritual of demotion is the ceremony of the king coming down from the platform of greeting, so it is called degrading, except for the use of receiving the king of another country, only the etiquette used when the general of the expedition is triumphant.
If the Qin army is completely slaughtered, it is normal to have such a demotion ceremony. However, although the war that was negotiated and completed was regarded as holding the party, this merit did not require the gift of demotion. Of course, from King Zhao's point of view, using this demotion gift is compensation for Zhao Kuo and the army under his command, but in the eyes of Zhao Kuo and other parties, this gift is no different from humiliation.
Even if the king said a word, Lou Chang also said it deliberately, which is not equivalent to pointing his nose and scolding: Just your little merit is also worthy of the gift of demotion?
However, are these hundreds of thousands of troops of Zhao really unworthy?
Obviously, you don't let us make meritorious contributions, but instead we can't make meritorious contributions? The generals were more aggrieved in their hearts, and then they all stared at Lou Chang with righteous indignation, and some people's hands had already touched the long knife on their waists, just waiting for Zhao Kuo to give an order.
Looking at Zhao Kuo, who had not received the order for a long time, and the generals who were about to move behind him, seeing that things were about to develop in the most unfavorable direction, Pingyuan Jun on the side was anxious in his eyes. After looking at Fan Sui, the prime minister of the Qin State, Pingyuan Jun knew very well, "The Zhao army can't be messed up!"
Then he hurriedly took two steps forward and whispered softly into Zhao Kuo's ear, there is no way, now only Zhao Kuo can solve this game. The reason why it is Zhao Kuo and not others is very simple: whether it is out of responsibility to Zhao or for his own benefit, Zhao Kuo must restrain his subordinates and take over the king's order at the same time.
Pingyuan Jun whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Pingyang-jun still has a king's order, if the general does not accept the king's order, Pingyang-jun will take the general's military power. Lou Chang's words may have come to provoke the generals. For the sake of Zhao Guoji, please also ask the general to temporarily rest the wrath of thunder and take over the king's order."
Zhao Kuo actually didn't feel much about Lou Chang's angry words, after all, he didn't attach much importance to the so-called courtesy, and in the 21st century, Zhao Kuo, who was accustomed to the saying "everyone is equal", it was difficult for him to have any impulsive feelings about what "demotion ceremony". Even Di Chubby can be demoted by beating a little traitor, which doesn't seem to be much courtesy.
Of course, Pingyuanjun's words still surprised Zhao Kuo.
King Zhao actually wants to replace himself with Pingyang Jun? This is even more outrageous than replacing Lian Po with himself! At least he is still a general, and he has fought a few battles with his father, Ma Fujun. What about Pingyang-kun? I'm afraid I can't even dance with a long knife!
If Pingyang Jun is made the main general, I am afraid that the combat power that he has retained with great difficulty will also be destroyed.
Nodding, Zhao Kuo finally spread his hands evenly and said loudly, "Weichen takes the order!"
In just four words, it makes people feel extremely aggrieved, and there are even generals behind him who vent the resentment in their hearts with their fists. Lian Po and Tian Dan, the second general behind him, also sighed deeply when they heard this.
Lou Chang on the other side was a little surprised, he was so provocative, Zhao Kuo could actually bear it? Is this still the appearance of a general in your impression?
Fortunately, Pingyang Jun also felt a little pity, if Zhao Kuo could sternly refuse, even if he confided half a "no" slightly, he would be able to control the whole army, and the name of defeating the Qin army might fall on his head. Obviously, this is indispensable for the "credit" of Pingyuanjun, who was whispering beside Zhao Kuo just now.
Thinking of this, Pingyangjun even regretted that he had just been easily tricked out by Pingyuanjun. However, this kind of thing is not once or twice; Second, if he really handed over these hundreds of thousands of troops to his own hands, Pingyang Jun would still be a little panicked.
Handing over the book of king's order with both hands, Pingyangjun immediately helped Zhao Kuo up.
"This is Fan Sui, the prime minister of the Qin State, and the general can discuss the follow-up matters with Fan Xiangguo." Pingyangjun pointed to Fan Sui on the side, and said to Zhao Kuo.
"Actually, there's nothing to discuss, the general will make a statement and order the boundary to open the door. As for the land of Taoyi, the general can accept it at any time, and the edict of our king should have arrived in Taoyi." Fan Sui, who watched a good show, immediately stepped onto the stage and said with a smile, as if he was in the market
Picking leaves.
"Yes, yes! There is nothing to negotiate." Lou Chang on the side also followed Pingyang Jun's words and said.
When these words came out, everyone's eyes looked at Lou Chang more and more coldly, if the eyes could kill, I am afraid that Lou Chang would be full of holes at this time, but unfortunately it can't, and even everyone is helpless about Lou Chang's obvious traitorous behavior. Even Pingyangjun, who came, frowned slightly.
But Lou Chang was not afraid at all, because Lou Chang knew very well: as long as King Zhao trusted him, he would naturally be able to stand tall in the court of Zhao State!
It is precisely because of this that Lou Chang can be so unscrupulous.
It's a pity that he met Zhao Kuo, a guy who never plays cards according to common sense.
"Who is he who has no words to speak with?" Zhao Kuo's cold voice sounded suddenly.
Everyone who heard the words was obviously a little confused, how could Zhao Kuo, who is the son of Ma Fujun, not know Lou Chang, the doctor of his own court?
Pingyuan Jun on the side was even more puzzled, obviously Zhao Kuo had also said that he wanted Lou Chang's head to sacrifice the flag before the expedition, how could he not know who the speaker was?
However, Pingyuanjun quickly reacted - Zhao Kuo is going to do something!
Although he was afraid that Zhao Kuo would make some big moves, Pingyuanjun, who had been aggrieved for a whole time, still decided to help Zhao Kuo, after all, the king's order had been taken, how big could the action be? Killed Lou Chang? That doesn't seem impossible......
"General: The one who spoke was the deputy envoy of the king's order, and the doctor Lou Changye." Pingyuan-kun replied from the side.
"Oh?" Zhao Kuo immediately looked at Lou Chang and said slowly, "The envoy hasn't spoken yet, when will it be the turn of the deputy envoy to make a decision?" Moreover, the command of my king is only for you to send a commandment, but the king's command has been received, and your duty has been fulfilled. Why do you bark wildly and do things that are overstepping? And who gave you the right to answer for Ben General? Doctor Lou, you still have the general in your eyes, and you still have my king?"
One sentence and three questions, directly stunned Lou Chang.
This is the upper outline online, and if the answer is not good, Zhao Kuo directly beheaded Lou Chang on the grounds of "disobeying the king's orders and abruptly doing the king's affairs", which is also reasonable. Even because Lou Chang's words just now were too offended, coupled with Zhao Kuo's cold aura, no one on the scene spoke for Lou Chang.
The generals behind Zhao Kuo shouted "Shuangli" one by one!
