Huaiqing left the main hall and did not leave the palace immediately, but went to the small garden on the side of the hall with great interest, where he lost no time in meeting Mrs. Yi very coincidentally.

"Girl, I don't know anything." After finishing the wonderful process of how he persuaded Hou Yufang not to send troops for the time being, Huai Qing asked with a slight frown.

"Brother, please speak." Mrs. Yi is also in a good mood today, and the sibling quarrel that arose ten days ago due to the dispute between the two ministers has long been out of her mind.

"In that case, why don't we secretly pass the book to my father, so that the clan will not send troops to act, so that Kui Duoyou can rest assured that he will go south and help the country quickly exterminate the army of the world, wouldn't it be nine out of ten?"

Mrs. Yi glanced at him angrily: "Brother is too eager for quick success, if it is as you say, my Hubei country will be destroyed like Fanguo." You, my brother and sister, and the silver carp will all die without a place to be buried, and the skin will not exist, and the hair will be attached, don't you understand?"

Huai Qing bowed in horror: "It's still my sister who has deep worries and is ashamed of my brother."

Mrs. Yi looked at the direction of the Copper Green Mountain in the west, and sighed leisurely: "The difficulty of this matter is that it is difficult to grasp the proportions, and it is advantageous for the prince to send troops early, and when he makes great achievements, he will be even more powerful; If the troops are sent late, the country will be in danger of ruin, and it will be difficult!"

Kui Duoyou, a key figure who was opposed by high-level figures in Hubei and Hubei, was in a very bad mood at this time. He walked into the shogunate's tent with a grim face, and before he could remove his heavy armor, there was already a lot of trouble waiting for him.

In the dimly lit tent, there were officials from Luoyi and several clan lords surnamed Ji in Chengzhou.

"General, the Huaiyi barbarians came to my fiefdom again the night before to harass them, and took away dozens of young strong slaves, and the melons that were about to ripen were also picked cleanly by them. If this continues, this year's rice will not be able to eat in their mouths, and they will plunder it." This is a complaint from a lord.

"General Kui, there have been a lot of fresh faces in the city recently, and those with broken hair and tattoos are not of my race at first glance. They wandered around the city, their eyes snooping around, but they did not do anything unlawful, and they were not easy to detain. It was not quiet outside the city, and every night there were hundreds of torches swimming, and from time to time cold arrows were fired at the top of the city. Yi Shou is very worried, the city is quite far away from the camp of Chengzhou, if there is an accident, it will not be able to rescue!" This is an official sent by the Luoyi government office.

"General, I heard that the army of Cheng Zhou is leaving the base camp and going south to fight Tonglu Mountain?" I don't know who said it, and it was like a drop of water falling into the oil pot, and it suddenly boiled and exploded.

"What? It's true? The general can't do it, the army is still there, and Huaiyi still dares to act like this; If the army goes south, then we will wait for ------ to be slaughtered like meat on a chopping board."

"General------ someone was already holding Kui Duoyou's leg and crying: "General, the army can't go!" The Eighth Division of Chengzhou is the barrier of the Central Plains, and it can't leave the heart of the Central Plains! Let the Jianghan Zhuji solve the affairs in the south by themselves, so what do we have to do? General, this Chengzhou Eighth Division is the backbone of the people of Wangji in my Central Plains! If they forsake us, on whom do we depend?"

For a while, crying, scolding, and low pleading------- wave after wave was higher and higher, and Kui Duoyou only felt that his ears were about to explode with a buzzing sound, and he was finally about to explode. He roared, "Shut up, y'all!"

This roar was like thunder, with a thunderous momentum, and finally shocked the group of people who were already in chaos. Kui Duoyou said word by word in a deep and majestic voice: "I, Kui Duoyou, am the pretending commander of the Eighth Division of Cheng Zhou, and the minister of the Son of Heaven. Cheng Zhou's Eighth Division can't send troops, and the king of Zhou has made a decision, and friends still don't dare to be independent, what is the situation? And the shogunate is a military powerhouse, so how can you wait for you to jump up and down, and come and go at will?"

In ancient times, the military was not only responsible for national defense, but also responsible for law and order because there were no police at that time. The Eighth Division of Chengzhou was stationed in the local area, and naturally had the function of maintaining law and order in the Chengzhou area, so the fathers and elders came to ask for help, and the guards of Yuanmen only regarded it as a good opportunity to reflect the situation of the army and the people, so they let them in. Being troubled like this, Kui Duoyou felt that he was not strict in governing the army, so that Si!

After learning from the pain, he asked Bei'er to expel everyone from the camp, and then issued an order: "Today

After that, unless the envoy holds the king's order, no idle person is allowed to step into the gate! Violators will be punished immediately!"

As soon as this order came out, Kui Duoyou was very confident that he could get a quiet time for a while, and thought about how to participate in the battle of Tonglu Mountain, but it was a delusion. Bei'er lifted the heavy curtain and reported, "General, there are people outside the gate asking to see you!"

"Didn't I say that I didn't see any people from Luoyi?" Kui Duoyou waved his hand impatiently.

"This man is not from Nakyi, but from Hojing, and claims to have a royal decree with the king."

"What? So fast?" Kui Duoyou was overjoyed, less than ten days ago, he had just sent a scout to Zhao Bohu to present a letter requesting troops, but he didn't expect to hear back so soon? He hurriedly commanded, "Let him enter the account quickly!"

The person who came was Rui Liangfu, who came to Cheng Zhou's Eighth Division this time on the orders of Zhou Li Wang Jihu, and made a special trip to convey Rongyi's ten orders for military and political rectification and supervise the implementation. Kui Duoyou held the book of the king with both hands and read the ten orders one by one, both admiring and a little disappointed. He had to say that these ten orders cut into the malpractices that have been in the army for many years, and if they can be implemented one by one, the combat strength of the Wang Division can indeed be rapidly improved in a short period of time.

But that is in the future, and the most urgent thing at the moment is the king's letter or oracle that the king of Zhou allowed him to send troops. It seems that he guessed wrong, and his book should not have been approved by King Zhou, so he felt a little embarrassed.

Rui Liangfu was keenly aware of his low mood, and couldn't help but ask, "The general is not in high spirits, could it be that he has reservations about these ten strategies?"

"No, no, no." Kui Duoyou waved his hand and said, "So that the doctor can learn that a few days ago, Kui sent a letter to summon the prime minister, requesting to send troops to Tonglu Mountain to help Suiguo, and he is waiting for the reply of the Son of Heaven for the past few days. I just want the doctor not to see the outside!"

"I see." Rui Liangfu nodded: "The general is eager to fight, but when I left Beijing, I hadn't heard Zimu mention this matter, so it should be that the letter has not been delivered yet. However------" he paused, "The general should not expect too much, according to the current situation, the Son of Heaven will probably not be invited by the brigadier general." br>

"Why is that?" Kui Duoyou's heart tightened.

"The general has lived in the Central Plains for a long time, and I am afraid that he does not know that this spring the lynx invaded the border on a large scale, and General Yu Zhong is leading the Western Sixth Division to fight against it. According to the financial and national strength of the Zhou Chamber, it can only support the defense and defense of the Western Sixth Division, and as for Tonglu Mountain, it can only rely on Suihou himself." After speaking, Rui Liangfu shook his head helplessly. It's not that he doesn't know the importance of Tonglu Mountain, but the situation is pressing, what can he do?
