Chapter 159: Lin Gaoyuan's careful thoughts

After hearing Zhao Wenhan's words, everyone thought about it and felt that there was some truth.

Beijun is indeed more important to Great Xia, so it is impossible for Emperor Xia to watch Beijun being defeated, so it is inevitable to transfer troops to the north.

Didn't Emperor Xia send 70,000 troops north last time?

Zhao Wenhan glanced at Chu Qinwu and Wang Hai at this time, and then said lightly: "Let's go, Your Majesty is still waiting for us to discuss important matters." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Wenhan walked towards the side hall, Chu Qinwu and Wang Hai glanced at each other, and then hurriedly followed.

At this time, Wang Chengshuo came to Lu Shuyun's side, and seeing Lu Shuyun's eyes squinting at Zhao Wenhan's back, Wang Chengshuo whispered: "Your Highness, I think Zhao Xiang's approach is right, since you can't stop Your Majesty from sending troops north, it is better to simply offer to support Beijun, in this way, how many troops to send north is something that the military department can participate in the discussion." ”

Hearing Wang Chengshuo's analysis, Lu Shuyun pondered for a moment and felt that there was some truth.

It seems that Jiang Lao is still spicy, if it were him, he would definitely find a way to prevent his father from sending troops north.

There are 50,000 heavy cavalry in the northern county, and what are they doing when they send troops north, they wish that the 50,000 heavy cavalry would be dismantled, it is precisely because of this idea that they seem to be a little too eager for quick success, so they are not very thoughtful in thinking about things.

Lu Shuyun was a little lucky, but fortunately, Zhao Wenhan, the old fox, was from his side.

Next, it is up to them to negotiate the result.

About an hour later, Lin Gaoyuan was the first to come out of Emperor Xia's study, he seemed much calmer today, not like last time because of the matter of sending troops to the north.

Lin Gaoyuan quickly returned home.

At this time, Lin Xiuming was also at home.

After seeing Lin Gaoyuan come back, Lin Xiuming took the initiative to ask, "Dad, when will I be able to go to the front line?" ”

The 70,000 army led by Lin Xiuming had only recently returned from Beijun, so when the war between Daxia and Dawu broke out, Lin Xiuming and the 70,000 army had been repairing in the capital, and had not been sent to the front line to fight Dawu, which made Lin Xiuming's heart a little restless.

After all, that man doesn't want to make a contribution, and this is a national war, not like Beijun, this war is very large, Dawudu has already assembled an army of nearly 800,000, and Daxia has transferred 400,000 troops in front of it.

If he can make contributions in this war, Lin Xiuming's prestige in the army can be greater, and his status can be greatly improved, so Lin Xiuming has been looking forward to the imperial court being able to transfer him to the front line.

Hearing Lin Xiuming's question, Lin Gaoyuan showed a smile, and then touched his beard.

"You're going to the front soon."

Hearing this, Lin Xiuming was stunned for a moment, and then his heart was overjoyed, "Really? How many soldiers does Your Majesty intend to give me? ”

Lin Gaoyuan immediately said: "Don't be too happy, Your Majesty only plans to give you 20,000 soldiers, and your main task is not to fight, but to transport supplies." ”

Lin Xiuming was dumbfounded, he was a dignified general, he didn't let him go to the front line to lead the troops to fight, let him do logistics?

Lin Gao saw that Lin Xiuming was stunned, so he continued: "In addition, the front line I am talking about is not referring to the war in the west, but to the north. ”

"North...... North? ”

Lin Xiuming's face was full of confusion.

Isn't the war in the north already over, the wolf king tribe has been demolished by the king of the north, and he has just returned from the north county, why is there another war in the north? At this time, who would dare to provoke the Northern King with 50,000 heavy cavalry in his hands?

Lin Gaoyuan continued: "The battle report I received just now when I went to the court, the king of Beixian led an army of 200,000 to the south, and the king of the north sent a messenger of red silk to ask for help from the imperial court, Zhao Wenhan They think that the war with Dawu is more important now, so they plan to send you to Beijun to transport some supplies to the past, and by the way assist the king of the north to resist the king of the north to go south." ”

Listening to his father's words, Lin Xiuming was a little confused.

It's just been a short time since I came back from North County, and I'm going to North County again?

What did he do in Beijun, and did he go to Beijun to help Beiwang clean up the battlefield and carry the corpse?

The king of the north relied on the little soldiers in the northern county, and even the 300,000 army led by the king of the wolf could eat, and the imperial court needed to send troops north.

Seeing that Lin Xiuming seemed a little reluctant, Lin Gaoyuan asked directly, "What, you don't want to?" ”

Lin Xiuming came back to his senses, "Dad, there are 50,000 heavy cavalry in Beijun, so there is no need for the imperial court to send troops north, right?" ”

Lin Gaoyuan said: "Do you think that sending you north is to let you resist the 200,000 army of the King of Beixian, the court sent you north, just to stabilize the King of the North, after all, the King of the North has sent a messenger of Red Silk to ask for help, who doesn't know that the means of the King of the North are extraordinary, and there is no need for the help of the court at all, your 20,000 soldiers are no different from the peasant soldiers of the transport team." ”

Lin Xiuming said unhappily: "It's not the same who to send there, why do you have to let me go, I still want to fight against the Dawu Dynasty and make more military achievements." ”

Lin Gaoyuan laughed, and then said: "How old are you this year, what are you doing in such a hurry to make military achievements, you look at Zhou Wangtian and Mu Changtian, which one has a good end." ”

Hearing Lin Gaoyuan say this, Lin Xiuming was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, it is indeed not a good thing to have too many military merits.

Lin Gaoyuan touched his beard, and then said: "Now the ministers in the court and those families basically think that the 50,000 heavy cavalry are His Majesty's private soldiers, but according to the news you brought back from Beijun, in my opinion, you can let the national teacher go to Beijun in person, and ask you so many questions, which shows that Your Majesty doesn't know anything about Beijun at all." ”

"There is a high probability that these 50,000 heavy cavalry are only obeying the orders of the North King, the North King is not a simple character, there is no harm in your more contact with him."

Hearing Lin Gaoyuan's words, Lin Xiuming was stunned.

His father is very taboo about taking the heir, whether it is the prince who comes to see him, he has the same attitude, that is, he resolutely does not stand on anyone, and basically has an attitude that does not concern himself.

But today, his father actually let him have more contact with the North King, doesn't this show that his father is very optimistic about the North King, and the prince in his heart is the North King?

Seeing Lin Xiuming looking at him in surprise, Lin Gaoyuan said, "What kind of expression are you, there is something on my face." ”

Lin Xiuming came back to his senses, and then said, "Dad, do you really think that the Northern King may ...... in the end"

Lin Xiuming did not continue, after all, it is inconvenient for this kind of thing to be discussed publicly.

Lin Gaoyuan said: "No one can say for sure, by the way, didn't you say last time that you saw Xiao Yun in Beijun?" ”

Lin Xiuming has been in Beijun for so long, so he naturally heard about Xuanyue Palace's opening of a restaurant in Beijun, and he and Lin Wanyun also met and chatted a few words.

Lin Xiuming said: "Well, I heard that she seems to have been living in the Beiwang Mansion all along. ”

Lin Gaoyuan pondered for a moment, then said with a smile on his face: "Although I don't know what Xuanyue Palace wants from the North King, if your sister can become the woman of the North King, you will be very good." ”

Forehead...... This......

Lin Xiuming reminded: "Dad, if I'm not mistaken, Sister Yun is in her thirties this year, and some children born in their thirties are as old as Beiwang......"

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Lin Xiuming's meaning was obvious, that is, with Lin Wanyun's age, he could be the mother of the Northern King.

Lin Gaoyuan glared at Lin Xiuming, and then said: "You know a fart, Beiwang has no mother since he was a child, and people like him like him are mature women who are older than him, you look at Chu Yuqin, isn't the princess of the Heavenly Wolf King so old." ”

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, let's get ready."

"The grain and grass household department for the expedition is ready, and you will have to go north in no more than five days."

Lin Xiuming sighed and didn't say anything more.
