If Yuan Shen wants to use the way of being a close minister of the emperor to ask for the control of the family, then he is basically sentencing himself to death. For the emperor's close ministers, the Eight Pillars Kingdom has many ways to let them die, even if this person is Yuan Shen, who has made great achievements, it is no exception.

"Then General Yuan shouldn't fight us, it's a blessing. ”

The adjutant general was obviously relieved, after all, Yuan Shen was a newcomer in the Guanglin Army who had not been in the army for a long time. But as a veteran in the Guanglin Army, they are all a little frightened.

Because his combat style and command skills are really powerful. Eleven years ago, the Guanglin Army attacked the border of Zhongzhou, which was originally overwhelming. But later, Yuan Shen came over with 3,700 cavalry and directly reorganized the defeated army, not only stabilizing the battle line, but also counterattacking the next city by the way.

However, because of timely mediation afterwards, this battle was won by the Guanglin army. But at that time, every soldier of the Guanglin Army knew that it was not known who would kill the deer if they continued to fight. After all, the opponent has the original guard of Zhongzhou, who is known as the strongest, in his hand.

"Let those people under your command be ready for battle, I think you have been too slack recently. ”

Qin Guanglin directly began to give orders, and the generals who came at that time may not have a tacit understanding between himself and Yuan Shen. Besides, the tacit understanding between himself and Yuan Shen is all out, and the new general of the Middle Zhou Dynasty is estimated to have to fight several times and feel the bottom before he can settle down.

And a day later, the matter of the change of commanders in the central and peripheral frontiers had already reached the imperial court of Western Qin.

"King Qiyu, now in the middle of the Zhou side, the defense is very weak. Yuan Shen had just left, and the new marshal had not arrived. Even if the new commander arrives, it is a situation where the soldiers do not know the generals, and the generals do not know the soldiers. A third-grade military attache came out directly and said, "As long as we hurry up and fight fast, we can reproduce the history of Guanglin Jun in three days and seven cities." ”

"Ridiculous!" At this time, a civil official came out and said, "Now Yuan Shen has indeed left, but his original guard has not left, and the core generals of the original guard have not left. Are you really one of the strongest forbidden armies in the middle of the Zhou Dynasty, and you can't make a paper paste?"

After the military attache finished speaking, he stepped back directly, ignoring the civil official's reprimand.

The civil official who came out of the list instantly realized that he had been fooled this time. But now that he was ready to send an arrow, he immediately said, "Minister Tan Honghui suggested that the king immediately dispatch a force of troops and horses to support the border of the Central Zhou Dynasty to prevent the attack of the Central Zhou Dynasty. ”

"Why?" Hearing Tan Honghui's suggestion, Ying Xiaoyue's face also became very strange.

To tell the truth, these civil servants belong to rabbits. Born to eat grass, for the imperial court wants to send soldiers and horses to attack the Western Song Dynasty, as well as the Southern Tang Dynasty, it can be said that it is obstructed in every way, and now it is actually to let himself send soldiers and horses to guard against the Middle Zhou?

However, she immediately saw the two camps of civil and military officials below, and she instantly understood.

Now in the imperial court, to put it bluntly, there are two factions. These two factions, one is to support the sword soldiers of the Western Song Dynasty, because the New Year's coins of the Western Song Dynasty have not been given in full this year, so they have to teach a lesson, and by the way, they will get a little more oil and water.

There is also a faction, which is naturally opposed. After all, the current situation in Western Qin is not good. Even if the price of iron has plummeted now because of the addition of a batch of unknown sources, the military department can change its equipment. But the grain, grass, and other things, are all out of unpreparedness.

Now that military attache represents the interests of the military attache collective, and these military attaches don't care whether you fight the Western Song Dynasty or the Central Zhou Dynasty.

For them, as long as there is a fight, it is fine. As long as there is a war, then there is the qualification to be added to the knighthood. As long as you are qualified to be an official and enter the knighthood, then your juniors, at least three generations, don't have to worry.

But civil officials are different, these civil officials pay attention to poetry and books. Even if one generation declines, poetry and books are handed down, the next generation, and even the next generation, can still be revived by virtue of themselves or nepotism.

And at this time, above the court, it is obvious that the wind direction has changed.

"Chen Qijuan, now that the Western Song Dynasty has undergone a large-scale costume change, it is obvious that they are preparing to bite off a piece of meat from our frontier. Mengshan said, "And now, because we have transferred 100,000 troops, it is already a serious shortage. ”

100,000 soldiers and horses is not a small number in itself, and it is not easy for Western Qin to be able to raise 100,000 redundant soldiers and horses. The most important thing is that this group of soldiers is still the real elite.

"That's why the forbidden army should defend the royal city. A civil servant said.

This person is known to Mengshan, Hubu Shangshu, and Bei Xian. The main reason is that the relationship between this guy and these military attaches is very bad, and the reason is understandable, every action of the military department is a heavy hemorrhage. The blood that comes out is not its own, it is all the blood of the household.

This guy Bei Xian has long been afraid of seeing the troops, even if he is a bandit, he is also in the spirit of recruiting peace if he can recruit him. In addition, this guy was bald at a young age, so there is a very bad nickname behind him, called Bei Rabbit.

"Bunny. Meng Shan said directly, "Are you really thinking that everyone is blind like you?"

"Mengshan, don't deceive people too much. Do you really think that you are a general, you can ......" Bei Xian was interrupted before he could finish speaking. In the face of Mengshan's pressure, he was a scholar, and he really had no resistance.

"What is it?" Meng Shan said with a smile, "Pei Xian, have you been sitting crooked lately? A household secretary turned out to be sitting back and watching the Western Song Dynasty suddenly increase troops, did you accept the ...... of the Western Song Dynasty envoys?"

"Uncle Meng, it's almost enough. Ying Xiaoyue said.

Pei Xian breathed a sigh of relief, if the king was ready to stand on Mengshan's side, then he would call the general. If the king doesn't want to get into trouble with Meng Shan too stiffly, he will call Uncle Meng.

This is the law summed up by all the people in the court who have dealt with Mengshan very much. The title of general can't bind Mengshan, and those who can bind Mengshan are estimated to only have feelings.

"It is unlikely that there will be more troops on the side of Zhongzhou, and there is no need for more troops in Zhongzhou. ”

At this time, Ying Xiaoyue spoke directly. Now there is only one rich army of soldiers and horses in the hands of Western Qin, since it is not to go to the Middle Zhou, then there is only one place, and that is the Western Song Dynasty.

The minds of those civil officials are very simple, as long as the forbidden army is fixed in Xianyang. Then when the time comes, there will be no loss of grain and grass.

If you want to fix the soldiers and horses in the middle of the week, it will certainly cause the vigilance of the middle week. But now in the middle of the Zhou Dynasty, there is no ability to attack at all, and the two imperial dynasties of the Zhonghan and Northern Yan are exhausted just by dealing with them, and they have no strength to open up the third battlefield.

Besides, Emperor Zhou's absurdity is not a day or two.

At present, Zhongzhou can't even stabilize the situation in his own country, let alone attack others. As for the Western Song Dynasty on the other side, there is actually nothing to worry about.

The weapons of the Western Song Dynasty have always been very sharp, and the foot soldiers of the Western Song Dynasty are indeed as strong as they preach. However, when the foot soldiers attack the city, the armor that could have given them good protection will become a burden.

And the Western Song Dynasty foot soldiers who lost their armor, even if they are strong, they are only strong.

In the eyes of those civil officials, even Zhao Hao really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall and dared to break ground on the head of Western Qin. Then Xiqin can also quickly draw troops from Xianyang, go directly to Qingzhou, and fight directly when the time comes.

And before the cavalry arrived, the Langya Iron Army under Captain Langya was enough.

It is only a worst-case scenario that will happen, and as for garrisoning Xianyang and garrisoning the border of the Central Zhou Dynasty, neither of these two options will consume too much grain and grass. Even, the road of garrisoning the border line of the Middle Zhou Dynasty may make the Langya Iron Army more than enough to defend and not enough to attack.

These officials of Western Qin, especially civil officials. At this time, he wanted to help Xi Qin save his vitality.

"There is a big trouble over there in the Western Song Dynasty, and Xuanniaowei has already received news that Zhao Hao is frequently mobilizing grain and grass. So on the Western Song Dynasty, there was at least a big war, but it was not known whether this battle was against us, the grassland, or the Southern Tang Dynasty. ”

Ying Xiaoyue also had a headache when she looked at the officials who were arguing and quarreling into a pot of porridge below, and some quarrels were allowed among the officials. After all, it is to seek common ground while reserving differences, and some things will only have results if everyone quarrels.

But this kind of quarrel is limited, it's not like now, endless quarrels, and even a bit of a trend of shrews scolding the street, if it weren't for these civil officials who still know a little bit of etiquette, righteousness and shame, it is estimated that they will be swept away by now.

Hearing Ying Xiaoyue's words, some of the civil officials chose to shut up.

But at this time, a person came out directly and said, "Minister, I implore the king to take back his fate." ”

Ying Xiaoyue frowned, she hadn't said her decision yet, and someone had already wanted to take back her fate. However, when he saw the person coming, he couldn't help but be a little afraid, because this person turned out to be the elder of the Three Dynasties, the current Zaifu, Qiu Haoda.

This old minister is now over 70 years old, and usually pretends to be deaf and dumb during the court meeting, and sits on a stool on the side as a mascot. But every time you stand up, it proves that there is going to be a big movement in the court.

"The forbidden army is the foundation of the country, and it is easy and immovable. Qiu Haoda said, "Xianyang is not quiet all around. ”

Meng Shan's face turned dark, and if he wanted to call the forbidden army this time, he was afraid that it would be difficult. Before, they were talking about foreign enemies, whether it was the Western Song Dynasty or the Middle Zhou Dynasty, it was possible to start a war.

But now...... The old man is talking about internal troubles!

As for what the internal troubles are, everyone here knows very well. The plains between the rivers have not been uneven lately, but rather rather uneven.

The current king of Hejian County almost tore his face directly and told you that he was going to rebel. The movement of troops near the Hejian Plain was extremely frequent, and it was obvious that they were preparing to attack together with the offensive of the Western Song Dynasty.

In other words, the king of Hejian no longer cares who is attacking with him. Whether it is the Southern Tang Dynasty or the Western Song Dynasty.

"Among the old ministers, the forbidden army should mobilize a part of the troops, directly insert it into the river plain, and pacify the thieves. Kill the ministers who don't obey!"

After Qiu Haoda finished speaking, he returned to his chair and sat down.

"Old horseman, who do you say is the minister who is not a minister?" a military general jumped up and said, "The king of Hejian County refused the throne back then, how could he rebel at this time?"

When several senior officials in the civil service looked at this general, they couldn't help frowning. Because they don't know if this military general is really stupid or pretending to be stupid. But it doesn't matter anymore, now the risk of the king of Hejian must be re-emphasized.

The generals' side completely extinguished the fire, although they also wanted to go to war. But it is also clear that before starting a foreign war, the interior must first be cleaned up. It's just that the military merits of the foreign war can be crowned kings and marquises, and the military merits of the civil war, hehe, can be promoted to one or two grades.

Some generals who hoped for military merit all looked at Mengshan, hoping that the general would give a little support at a critical time.

It doesn't take much to mobilize at least some of the generals of the forbidden army to the front line, just one chance. The forbidden army really needs a chance to prove itself, the Guanglin army once defeated the Yuan Wei of the Central Zhou Dynasty, and the Langya Iron Army defeated the Modao battalion of the Southern Tang Dynasty, but only the forbidden army, known as the strongest forbidden army, has no record.

"Mobilize the iron army in the west to enter the Guanzhong region and prepare to send troops to the border of Zhongzhou. In addition, half of the Guanglin Army was mobilized into Xianyang, ready to attack the Hejian Plain. Ying Xiaoyue said, "In addition, mobilize half of the forbidden army and go west to guard against the Western Song and Southern Tang Dynasty." ”

Qiu Haoda's eyes lit up instantly, but in the end they dimmed. Then he closed his eyes, and it was obvious that he was ready to rest again.

The civilian camp originally wanted to stop it, but when they saw Qiu Haoda, they all turned off. Mengshan on the military attaché's side is highly motivated, after all, the military attaché's side has benefited the most from the forbidden army this time.

Many of the forbidden army are noble children, and these noble children cannot inherit the title because they are not the eldest sons of the family.

Now as long as he runs to fight with the Western Song Dynasty and the Southern Tang Dynasty, then even if it is again, he can mix up military merits. At that time, even if you can't be a marquis, a thousand households are indispensable, and if you operate it, you may have a title.

At this time, if you sin those generals, those nobles will make you miserable afterwards.

If it were usual, a few of these civil officials might be "upright" and come to check their reputation. But now, in this case, whoever dares to jump out will wait for the wrath of all the nobles. This anger is deadly, and there is only one person in the entire civil official camp who can bear it, and that is Qiu Haoda, who is now recuperating with his eyes closed.
