Zhao Bingkun rode his horse into Suzhou from the military camp and headed straight to the general's mansion. When he was dismounting in front of the mansion, he met Liu Zhijun who was already outside the mansion. He clasped his fists and asked: "General Liu, King Qi beats the drums and gathers the generals, and summons us to come quickly, I don't know what's going on?"

Liu Zhijun took off his sword and handed it to the guards. When he heard Zhao Bingkun's voice, he turned around and smiled, "What else can it be? The war should be about to start. Dangshan and Xuzhou war should have ended. Now is the time when An Wang's troops are tired. We are waiting for this day?"

"It should be so. Now that the Wu army is defeated, there is only the An King's army left in front of you. If King Qi wants to occupy the Central Plains, he naturally has to solve this disaster. But..."

The two walked into the mansion together, and Zhao Bingkun continued: "My incompetent daughter is still under Shangguan Qingcheng's tent. She has not returned yet. I don't know what King Qi is planning."

Liu Zhijun glanced at Zhao Bingkun and lowered his voice: "This is of course King Qi's trick. With Zhao Nianci in front of Shangguan Qingcheng, King An's troops would not be wary of our sudden attacks, so that we can achieve miraculous results!"

Zhao Bingkun's face changed and he opened his mouth to say something, but when he saw Liu Zhijun's arrogant and playful look, he swallowed the words to his mouth again.

Although the military disciples occupied most of the positions of generals under Li Maozhen, they were not the only military strategist in the army. Li Maozhen's original confidants were still an extremely important force. Although the number of generals was not as large as that of military strategists, the middle and lower-level generals and officers were basically in their hands.

These people were led by Liu Zhijun everywhere and vaguely competed with military strategists.

Zhao Bingkun knew that this was Li Maozhen's balance technique, and he would be too damn big for military strategists.

If it were the case, Zhao Bingkun would naturally disdain this and would not take Liu Zhijun seriously. However, Zhao Nianci's defeat in Dangshan not only lost more than 200,000 soldiers, but also dozens of outstanding military disciples, but also ruined the prestige of military strategists. Now Zhao Bingkun is not as confident as before.

Liu Zhijun did not hesitate to say that Zhao Nianci was taken as a hostage by King Qi, and was also a chess piece that was destined to be sacrificed no matter how he looked. Zhao Bingkun was angry, but inconvenient to attack.

When they entered the lobby, there were already many generals inside. Zhao Bingkun took his position with a dark face.

Half of the generals in the hall looked at him, looking at him with a sense of excitement. These are the best among military disciples, with high positions and clear meanings: Is the army going to go to war with King An's army?

Zhao Bingkun ignored the eyes of these people and continued to think about his own affairs with a calm face.

He has no son, and Zhao Nianci is his only daughter. What is even more rare is that he has good talent and a high level of status. Although he has been defeated in Xiaoxian for a while, victory and defeat are common in military affairs. A loss on the battlefield does not mean anything.

Now that Zhao Nianci is going to be regarded as an abandoned son by Li Maozhen, how can Zhao Bingkun feel at ease?

Li Maozhen is here, she looks very good, with a high crown and a wide-sleeved robe. Although she does not wear a royal robe, she also looks majestic and heroic. She stood up behind the handsome desk with her hands and accepted everyone's salute.

After the generals sat back, Liu Zhijun asked impatiently: "Your Highness, are we going to start a war with King An's troops? It has been a long time since the last day! As long as your highness gives you an order, you will take Shangguan Qingcheng's head!"

As soon as he said this, many generals asked for battle.

The disciples of the military strategists looked at Zhao Bingkun who did not say a word, and expressed their anxiety. They were very surprised why the other party did not speak out and let Liu Zhijun and his people compete for the important position of vanguard.

Li Maozhen raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. Seeing Liu Zhijun's eyes were very strange: "I have issued military orders two days ago. All divisions should cooperate with King An to cross the Henan expedition, obey King An's unified dispatch, and wipe out Huainan in one fell swoop. Did General Liu not receive the military order?"

Liu Zhijun rubbed his hands and looked like a profiteer, and laughed and said, "Isn't this all your plan to paralyze the other party? I have been following Your Highness for so long, how can I not know? Only in this way can we have the opportunity to wait for today's military discussion, and to catch them all in one go!"

Li Maozhen raised his eyebrows, said with an oh, and said with an eye-catching look: "Do you actually know?"

Liu Zhijun immediately raised his head and looked like I was actually very smart and wise: "Your Highness has been cultivating the last general for many years. If the last general does not make any progress, then it will be a shame to your highness!"

Li Maozhen nodded and nodded, deeply convinced, and then, in Liu Zhijun's expectant and proud eyes, he suddenly slapped the handsome desk and shouted in a low voice: "Come here, pull Liu Zhijun down and beat fifty military sticks!"

Liu Zhijun thought Li Maozhen was joking at first, but seeing that the other party looked different, he panicked and asked hurriedly: "Your Highness, what is the crime of the last crime?"

"Stupid!" Li Maozhen was not angry, "Stupid is your biggest sin!"

As he said that, he ignored Liu Zhijun's shouting and waved his hand to let the soldiers who came in drag him out.

Not long after, the dull sound of military sticks sounded outside, and Liu Zhijun's screams full of grievances.

The second monk Zhao Bingkun was confused and looked at some military disciples. At this moment, he felt indescribable. On the one hand, he was thinking about it by chance. Could it be that Zhao Nianci was not regarded as an abandoned son? On the other hand, he couldn't help but wonder, is it that King Qi really going to listen to the orders of King An?

Before Zhao Bingkun could figure it out, Li Maozhen asked him inexplicably: "General Zhao thinks what is my military order?"

Zhao Bingkun stood up and thought to answer: "Your Highness's military order, we will naturally obey it."

It is hard for him to say it too clearly because he himself does not know what Li Maozhen meant. Although Liu Zhijun was a little arrogant and domineering, his understanding of Li Maozhen's military order undoubtedly represents the conjecture of most generals in the army. Is this still wrong?

With the idea of ​​clarifying the situation first, Zhao Bingkun asked: "Your Highness, the 'King An' who appeared in Moshan that day and fought with Gao Pian should be your Highness?"

Li Maozhen couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hands. After a while, the voice came out: "Do you think that Gao Pian was killed by this king alone?"

Zhao Bingkun said in an inward voice: "This... should also have the effect of false King An - which shocks his mind. Oh, we all think so!"

Li Maozhen looked up at Zhao Bingkun with an unbelievable look, but found that the other generals were nodding like garlic.

Someone among them said with a bold gesture: "Your Highness's magic tricks are made. First, he used the fake King An to shock Gao Pian and took the opportunity to seriously injure him. Then he sent someone to intercept him on the Bagong Mountain, the only way he must escape south, and killed him in one fell swoop, creating a great situation at the moment. We admire him very much!"

Li Maozhen was speechless, not knowing what perspective to look at her and these generals. Should they say that they are extremely loyal and trusting to them, or should they say that they are extremely stupid?

Seeing that Li Maozhen looked strange, as if he had eaten a fly, Zhao Bingkun asked strangely: "Is there any secret to this matter? The fake King An can shock Gao Pian, and it seems that it is also relying on the magical instruments and treasures given by His Highness..."

"My secret!" Li Maozhen suppressed his anger, "King An is true!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was shocked.

Zhao Bingkun smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Highness, don't tease me and wait. We know that our previous performance in the war was not good, and our old subordinates robbed a lot of military merits, which disappointed you. We must be dissatisfied with us. We admit that the generals of King An are indeed extraordinary, but please don't be too angry. We will definitely lose our merits in the future."

Zhao Bingkun looked like Li Maozhen was talking angry, with the purpose of beating them and letting them know their shame before they can be brave.

Li Maozhen looked at the generals with grief and anger and fighting spirit, and stood up and wanted to get angry. Suddenly, she thought of something in her heart and sat back.

Li Maozhen knew very well that neither Liu Zhijun nor Zhao Bingkun were fools. Although he suffered a little loss when facing Yang Xingmi, this did not mean that they were incompetent. It was because the other party was too powerful and had too sufficient preparations before the war.

When they attacked Guanzhong and Hezhong, they were almost invincible.

At this time, they insisted that King An was fake. Obviously, it was not that they thought so from the bottom of their hearts, but that they had to think so!

Not only do they think so, but from King Qi Li Maozhen to ordinary soldiers, they must think so!

Only by unifying the most basic understanding can the morale of the three armies be stable and the fighting spirit will not be affected. In the future, they can continue to fight against the An Wang army, fight against them, and then compete for the Central Plains.

After all, neither Liu Zhijun nor Zhao Bingkun wanted to follow Li Ye just because of Li Maozhen's words, and from then on he was dependent on others and was treated as cannon fodder.

——This is inevitable in everyone’s eyes. They are not Li Ye’s direct subordinates, and they are not even considered to be the army of their own. In the future wars, who can guarantee that Li Ye will not be afraid of them and suppress them?

For the sake of his own destiny and future, this King An now must be fake!

Li Maozhen sighed secretly. There are no stupid people in this world who are in high positions. It is because it is related to one's own interests that he has done many inexplicable and ridiculous things.

Li Maozhen was silent for a long time, and then he said earnestly to Zhao Bingkun and others: "After Huang Chao, the world was in chaos and heroes arose. We, those who could not make a fortune in the peaceful season, finally became the best man after a bloody battle and a great success. A real man shines his family and a grandfather, and he lives up to his grandchildren, and lives up to his ambitions and a seven-foot body. There is no regret in this life.

"Now, I am a minister in the throne, and you are in a high position. Those who follow us are also rich and prosperous. Such achievements are enough to be celebrated at any time or on anyone. What we have not done is just usurping the throne and becoming emperor. What else is there to be inconsistency?

"If King An has gone and there are no heroes at that time, and we are unwilling to let the prince steal the artifact, we would naturally be able to compete for the Central Plains. Once the world is pacified, it is natural that the king has gained the unparalleled achievements of the Nine Five, which is natural. However, now that Your Majesty is in Chang'an, King An brings millions of troops to fight outside, Hebei and Central Plains are all criticized by him, Huainan is just around the corner, what is this? This is the general trend.

"The prosperity of the dynasty has been established. It is undoubtedly true that King An revived the country and became famous in history. How can we disobey the general trend? Now there are constant border troubles and the territory of our ancestors is eroded by foreign races. This is our shame. Conquering the frontiers and attacking the unjust ministers is the battlefield for us to display our talents and ambitions! If this can be done, why worry about not being able to leave a name in history? A real man makes a contribution, why must he be unable to get along with the Tang Dynasty?
