Chapter 347: Xia Yun's Mother
The person who spoke was the deputy general Sun Zi, don't look at his bitter words and kind persuasion, but in fact, he wanted to put Lin Yuqing in the target of public criticism.
Sun Zinai is the head of the four deputy generals of the Dancheng military camp, he has coveted Lin Yuqing's position as a general for a long time, but General Lin's military talent is really good, and the saint is quite valuable to Lin Yuqing's talent, and his deputy general can only be subordinated to a woman.
With Lin Yuqing's military talent, she was not transferred from Dancheng to the imperial capital to become an official or marshal, but always stayed in a first-class town to be an ordinary general, just because her identity was extremely special.
She is not only the queen of the Lin family, the top ten families, but also the daughter-in-law of Xia Lan and the mother of Xia Yun!
Because of Lin Yuqing's talent and her identity, the saint admired but did not dare to promote, forcing Sun Zi to be stuck in the position of deputy general, and he could not be promoted and reused by the imperial court for a long time.
If it weren't for Lin Yuqing being a member of the Lin family, if it weren't for the fact that the saint had taken Lin Yuqing's mind, Sun Zi was afraid that he would have overthrown General Lin's political platform a long time ago and monopolized the power of the Dancheng military department. After all, there are people above him, what the Lin family, what royal family, it may not be enough to see.
Now, General Lin wants to send troops to the northeast to fight against the Tianxuan Empire, but it gives him a chance to rebel, if he can take the opportunity to pull General Lin off the horse, then General Dancheng's position is in his pocket!
Among the four major lieutenant generals, except for one lieutenant who was loyal to General Lin, the other two lieutenant generals were Sun Zi's people, and they also stood up to refute General Lin's decision, feeling that this matter was not very safe, and even the staff officers and soldiers below thought that this move was really unwise.
At present, the treasury is empty and the military strength is weak, so it is reasonable to use the money to eliminate disasters and buy peace, so as to alleviate the urgent needs of the empire. If you go to trouble the Tianxuan Empire at this juncture, wouldn't it put the entire White Dragon Empire in dire straits?
"Ahem, general, taking the initiative to provoke a dispute at this time can easily break out into civil strife!" an older staff officer also reassured.
"Hmph! If it weren't for your blind tolerance and connivance, would the Tianxuan Empire be so arrogant and domineering? How could the situation it is in today? As everyone knows, in order to accumulate combat power, you have repeatedly spent a lot of money to make peace, not only weakening our country's financial resources and strength, but also strengthening the power of other countries, and this move is ruining the great future of our White Dragon Empire!"
General Lin shouted loudly, and the generals were shocked and didn't dare to say more. They knew that what General Lin said was also true, but there was nothing they could do.
If you fight in battle, you will inevitably lose your country, and if you seek peace, although you will eventually lose your country, at least the White Dragon Empire will have a few more years of respite, so that you may be able to find a chance to turn it around one day!
A look of triumph flashed on Vice General Sun's face, and he felt that there was a drama in this matter, so he asked Lin Yuqing with a worried face: "I said General Lin, do you really want to ignore the people and all living beings in the world because of your own blood?"
Although the rest of the generals didn't dare to say much, they also nodded slightly in agreement, and Vice General Sun's opinion was exactly what they thought in their hearts.
General Lin suddenly felt funny in his heart, on the surface, he said righteous and awe-inspiring, but in fact it was just the hypocrisy of a group of greedy people.
"I think you're just doing it for your own selfish interests, plus you're greedy for life and afraid of death, right?! You only know that you enjoy the benefits and fame brought by your official position, but you have never thought of protecting your own land!"
"General Lin, you can't talk nonsense, we are all contributing to the White Dragon Empire!" Vice General Sun said with a displeased expression.
"Huh...... Everyone knows it!"
General Lin snorted coldly and looked at everyone, many generals lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at them. The atmosphere of the whole meeting suddenly became extremely silent and eerie.
Suddenly, a soldier hurried into the barracks and shouted, "Report!"
This sound interrupted the depressing atmosphere of the whole meeting, and made many people breathe a sigh of relief, but Vice General Sun was eager to break the corpse of this soldier who suddenly broke in.
"Say!" General Lin said lukewarmly.
"Two women outside came to report, saying that the beast tide was coming, and asked the general to support the imperial capital immediately!"
"What nonsense! Why didn't I receive a tip-off?" Vice General Sun's face was gloomy and he rebuked sharply. There are generally scouts in the military camp, and Vice General Sun Zi happens to be in charge of various affairs in this area, and news from all directions will reach his ears as soon as possible.
"Besides, there may be a beast tide in the imperial capital? I'm afraid you're not lying about the military situation, right?" Vice General Sun looked at the soldiers, as if he were a dead man.
"That is, it must be fake news, and the two people who reported the news were cut down along with this soldier!" Another adjutant general who supported Sun Zi spoke directly, and the soldier who reported the news was frightened.
"How credible?" General Lin ignored Adjutant General Sun's questioning and continued to ask the soldiers.
"This is uncertain, and the woman in white said that as long as the general sees her, everything will be known. The soldier said resignedly, not daring to hide it at all.
"Okay, you tell them to wait for me in the reception room, and I'll take a look. General Lin ordered.
"Yes!" After replying, the soldier hurriedly ran out, not daring to stay in the camp for a moment, and after coming out, he still had some lingering palpitations, and the messenger was really not done by people.
After the soldier left, Adjutant General Sun's face was extremely gloomy and terrifying. He was anxious, how could time be so unlucky, he almost found the best time to plot against Lin Yuqing.
Who is it, how did you find the beast tide? and it's still near the imperial capital?
"General, don't believe the villain's words! And we still have important meetings to discuss, how can we have time to pay attention to a woman who doesn't even report her name?" Sun Zi stopped Lin Yuqing, who was about to leave, and said.
"Vice General Sun, this general will naturally not believe the villain's nonsense, you don't have to worry about this. But you have to confirm whether the other party is a villain first, you have nothing to do anyway, just wait here first. ”
General Lin's words were quite domineering, and after finishing speaking, he opened the curtain and walked out. Lin Yuqing's indifference suddenly choked Vice General Sun, although he was angry, he didn't dare to refute anything, after all, General Lin was still his top boss.
Then, General Lin suddenly walked back and added that he had scared Vice General Sun and his cronies.
