258 [Knife Light Behind the Scenes]
Through this sincere and direct heart-to-heart exchange, Lu Shen and Li Bingxue got along more naturally.
In fact, for this pair of young men and women, the topic of love and love is not the most important, and there are many topics that can be talked about between them, such as their views on the next stage of the war, or their own training experience, and even the analysis and judgment of the general trend of the world.
In other words, they are the trendsetters who really stand on the waves, and their vision is much higher than that of their peers.
Li Bingxue has a family history, and has profound attainments in commanding cavalry and making decisions on the battlefield, although Lu Shen is a halfway monk, but he is talented in the overall situation and strategic planning, and the two can complement each other, at least in this field, it can be called a match made in heaven.
In the next few days, Lu Shen observed and learned the daily drills of the Flying Feather Battalion, and Li Bingxue also asked him for a detailed review of the Battle of Lei Ze.
On the fifth day of the first month of the first month, with the unremitting efforts of the subordinate officials at all levels of the Governor's Mansion, the aftermath of the Battle of Lei Ze was almost completed, and Lu Shen and Li Bingxue received Xiao Wangzhi's general order to rush to the temporary station of the Governor's Mansion to participate in the military discussion.
The two walked into the lobby together, and Song Shifei, the commander of the Feiyun Army, said with a smile: "Brother Lu, I'm afraid I'll have to change my name to you after a while." ”
In the Qi Dynasty lord system, the lowest level is the founding county man, that is, Lu Shen's current Shanyang County baron, and then the founding viscount, the founding earl, the founding marquis, the founding county duke, the founding duke, the county king and the prince.
Lu Shen, as the planner of the specific strategy of the Northern Expedition, and at the same time made many feats on the battlefield, even if the war came to a standstill, it was more than enough for him to be awarded the title of earl.
Song Shifei's words were naturally ridiculous, and the other generals in the hall also laughed and said nothing, without any discordant sounds.
Lu Shen smiled and said: "Brother Song is wrong in what he said, no matter what rewards the imperial court has, I have always been Brother Lu in front of your brothers." ”
Everyone laughed, and Song Shifei touched his head and said, "It's enough to have your words." ”
Although they are brave generals on the battlefield, their brains are not stupid, of course they know that once Lu Shenfei Huang Tengda, the rules that should be talked about still have to be followed, but at least his statement made everyone feel quite ironed.
No one likes the kind of person who soars as soon as he gains power.
Li Bingxue felt a little emotion in his heart, Lu Shen's status in the Huaizhou Army has long been different from what it used to be, this is of course the reward he got by relying on his own efforts, and it also proves from another perspective that Xiao Wangzhi is indeed cultivating him as a successor.
The two saluted Xiao Wangzhi on the handsome seat, and then sat down next to each other.
Regarding Fang Cai's vignette, Xiao Wangzhi didn't care.
It was not easy to win the battle of Lei Ze, and in the end, he achieved a great victory that had not been achieved for decades, which was a victory won by the generals and every soldier in the hall in exchange for their lives, so as long as there was no violation of military discipline, Xiao Wangzhi allowed the people below to relax a little.
His gaze swept over Lu Shen and Li Bingxue, and he coughed lightly: "Everyone, the main force of the Jing army has been annihilated, and then they will not send out the remaining forces in Heluo City, which means that the other party will fully turn to passive defense." For our army, this is a critical period that cannot be missed, and whether or not the territory of Dongyang Road can be recovered is in one fell swoop. ”
When it comes to business, all the generals have gathered their minds and sat upright.
Xiao Wangzhi continued: "Before the Battle of Razor, our army had cleared the area east of Gushu City. After this battle, the line from Ningling to Gaoyuan in the north was a smooth road, and now I announce the preliminary arrangements for the third phase of the Northern Expedition. Song Shifei, your department is responsible for guarding Pingli City and Ningling City, and will not participate in the follow-up war for the time being. ”
Although Song Shifei was extremely eager to fight, he also knew that he and the Feiyun Army had a lot of credits, just opening up the passage from Panlong Pass to Pingli City, and his subsequent performance in the Lei Ze victory was also outstanding, so he said respectfully: "The last general will obey the order of the Metropolitan Governor!" ”
Pingli and Ningling are located in the southwest of Dongyang Road, which can not only block the enemy in the direction of Moyang Road in Yanguo, but also block the reinforcements sent by Heluocheng. Although there may not be reinforcements from the Yan State in these two directions, it is difficult to guarantee that the enemy will continue to make wrong decisions, and the Feiyun Army may still be able to gain some combat merits.
Xiao Wangzhi looked at Kang Yanxiao again and said: "You will lead the Taixing army to return and exchange with the Pingshan army, and your troops will guard Tongshan, Qingtian and Yongquan Pass, and you must protect our army's logistics line." ”
Kang Yanxiao said loudly: "Obey! ”
Xiao Wangzhi bowed slightly, and continued: "The two armies of Zhenbei and Lai'an continue to rest, and after the Pingshan army arrives, you will set off to the north to join the Guangling army. The third stage of the Northern Expedition was to recover the entire territory of Dongyang Road, using Dongyang Road as the northern barrier of Huaizhou. In the future, whether it is to send troops from the west to Heluo, or to deal with the counteroffensive of Yanjing's army, Dongyang Road is the top priority. You should keep in mind that our army represents the Great Qi Imperial Court, and strict military discipline is the most basic requirement. ”
"The last general commands!"
The crowd responded in unison.
Xiao Wangzhi looked at Lu Shen and said, "Do you have anything to add?" ”
Lu Shen nodded and said calmly: "Generals, I want to follow the words of the Grand Governor. In the previous wars, the Yan army was defeated and defeated in successive battles, in addition to their own lack of strength, another point was that they could not get the support of the people of the north, and in many cases there was a problem that it was difficult to collect intelligence. Our army went all the way to the north, and the victory on the battlefield can only be regarded as half of the success, if our army cannot win the hearts of the people without committing any mistakes in the autumn, it will repeat the mistakes of the Yan army in the future. ”
The generals bowed their heads.
Lu Shen said: "Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, if our army wants to take root in Dongyang Road, we must treat the people of the north well, and we must not be soft on those corrupt officials and squires who exploit the poor." Now that Jing Chao's energy is involved in Zhao Guo, and there is no time to look south in a short period of time, this is our best opportunity. Our army wants to transform Dongyang Road into a second Huaizhou, and war is only a means rather than an end, I hope that all generals can think about this problem. ”
Li Bingxue looked sideways at the young man who was talking around him, and couldn't help but smile.
"Lu Shen's words are my opinion, the Rui Shi Battalion still has the right to supervise military law, whether it is the soldiers below or yourself, if you violate military discipline and fall into his hands, don't come to me to intercede at that time."
Xiao Wangzhi emphasized this point, then looked at Li Bingxue and said, "Captain Lidu, I have already told Ling Zun that the Feiyu Battalion will stay here for the time being to assist our army in recovering Dongyang Road. ”
Li Bingxue bowed his head and said: "Please rest assured that Governor Xiao Dadu, but there is a sending, and the last general and the Flying Feather Battalion will definitely go all out." ”
Xiao Wangzhi said gently: "Very good." ”
He looked around at the generals and said, "I have sent someone to the capital to send the meritorious recital of the previous war. In addition, the rewards and pensions of the officers and men of the various armies will be distributed by the Governor's Mansion one after another in the next few days, and you should not make a fortune from them, otherwise you will ......"
Pei Di smiled and said, "Metropolitan Governor, where can there be that kind of stupid person." ”
Xiao Wangzhi nodded and said, "That's it for today, you go and do your own work, Lu Shen and Li Bingxue will stay for the time being." ”
The generals rose and retired, and the chamber soon fell silent.
Li Bingxue turned his head to look at Lu Shen, with an inquiry in his eyes, but Lu Shen shook his head slightly, saying that he didn't know what arrangements Xiao Wangzhi had.
"It's not a big deal to keep you here, it's mainly about the next war."
Xiao Wangzhi had just spoken, when suddenly a personal soldier walked in and said, "Governor Dadu, the warp weaving department Su Jian School asks to see you." ”
The three people in the hall had different expressions, and Xiao Wangzhi bowed his head and said, "Please let him in." ”
After a while, Su Yunqing, the warp weaving department of Huaizhou Inspection School, stepped in, his gaze did not immediately look at Xiao Wangzhi, but fell on Lu Shen.
After the ceremony, Xiao Wangzhi asked, "What is the matter with Su Jianxiao?" ”
Su Yunqing's impression of Lu Shen has always been calm and decisive, but today he was hesitant and hesitated: "Governor Dadu, the official just received a secret report from the Taixing Yamen, the content is related to Lu Duwei, so he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly came over to report." ”
Xiao Wang was stunned.
Lu Shen said puzzledly: "Taixing Yamen? Something to do with me? Can Master Su elaborate on that? ”
Su Yunqing already knew the details of Lei Ze's victory, and knew very well that Lu Shen's rise was unstoppable, as long as the imperial court received Xiao Wangzhi's report, this young man would inevitably be promoted to the rank of knight because of the appreciation of the Son of Heaven.
At this moment, he suddenly learned of the abnormal movement in the south, and he couldn't help but feel a big headache, because this matter was afraid that it would touch Lu Shen's scales.
As soon as he thought of this, he stubbornly said: "That's the case, Lu Duwei's father was taking care of the business in Taixing Mansion some time ago, and for some reason he was invited to the Assassin's Mansion by Lord Assassin Shi, and he never came out, and the specific reason is unknown. The inspector of the Taixing Yamen of the Warp Weaving Division knew the identity of Lu Duwei's officer, so he personally went to the Assassin's Mansion to inquire, and met Lu Duwei's father under the arrangement of Yao Tingshi, confirming that he only accepted some simple questioning and was not treated harshly. ”
Lu Shen's right hand unconsciously clenched the teacup, and said in a deep voice: "Su Jianxiao, what happened later?" ”
Su Yunqing's heart tightened slightly, in just two years, this young man could give him a huge sense of oppression, so he quickly said: "Yao Tingshi personally said that he was just talking to Ling Zun about some trivial matters, but Taixing Inspector later learned that Master Ji brought people to Taixing and directly entered the Thorn Shi Mansion. He was worried that this matter had something to do with Ling Zun, so he asked the flying pigeon to pass the book to me. ”
Lu Shen Huo Ran got up, his eyes were already cold.
"Calm down."
Xiao Wangzhi's voice came into his ears.
Lu Shen turned his head to look, only to see the middle-aged man's resolute face, and said slowly: "Yao Chong won't come nonsense, he doesn't dare to come nonsense, and the people in the warp weaving department also don't dare to act rashly, this is Huaizhou instead of the capital." I know you can't put your mind at ease, so if that's the case, you can go back, and I'll let Huang Xianfeng accompany you. ”
"Thank you for your attention."
Lu Shen saluted, and then said to Su Yunqing: "Please also ask Su Jianxiao to tell me all the details." ”
Su Yunqing nodded in response.
Lu Shen looked at Li Bingxue, and she said without hesitation: "I'll accompany you on a trip, there is a deputy general in the Feiyu Battalion here, and everything will be arranged by the Grand Governor, and there will be no mistakes." ”
"Okay, thank you."
Lu Shen bowed slightly, the two looked at each other, and everything was silent.
Before leaving, Xiao Wangzhi told Lu Shen again: "No matter what happens, trust your father's own decision." Of course, if someone wants to make trouble behind the scenes, you remember that the Huaizhou Governor's Mansion will always be your most solid backing. ”
Lu Shen stared at the middle-aged man's eyes and bowed solemnly.
Su Yunqing tasted the killing aura in this sentence, and his expression became more and more solemn.
At this moment, there was only one question in his heart, how could the warp weaver ask for trouble with Lu Tong?
Isn't the Son of Heaven and Lord Tiju unaware?
What happened to the capital?
In fact, when he received the urgent report from Taixing Yamen, Su Yunqing realized that there were a lot of strange things in it, and it might cause a terrifying storm.
Now he only hopes that Ji Ximing's gang will not act recklessly, even if Lu Tong only loses a single hair in the Huaizhou Assassin Mansion, the murderous young man around him may be turned upside down.
Following Lu Shen and Li Bingxue out of the Temporary Governor's Mansion, Su Yunqing couldn't help but sigh secretly.
There are also in the evening.
