The battle Cang Xiuxuan was talking about was the time when Song Chen went to the border.
Enemy troops broke into their military camp. After a thorough investigation, many people were implicated.
General Weiyuan knew about this incident, and it was precisely because of this incident that Cang Xiuxuan was exiled to Baofeng County and was not allowed to return to Beijing without an edict.
The emperor had done many things before he was exiled. Not only had he removed all his powers, but he had also taken back all his residences in Shangjing.
The attack was quite sudden and Cang Xiuxuan could not react in time. This was the most cruel move the emperor used at that time.
It is said that after taking all these things back, Cang Xiuxuan only had less than ten thousand taels of silver left.
Later, the Zhuangzi in Baofeng County was given by the emperor...
Why is he bringing this up now?
Listening to his tone...could this matter have something to do with the emperor?
General Weiyuan became more and more uneasy as he thought about this.
"You, what do you mean by this? At that time, you were underestimating the enemy and had nothing to do with the emperor."
General Weiyuan said this, and he insisted on thinking this way.
In fact, what he didn't understand was that since he was doing his own psychological construction like this, it meant that his heart had begun to waver.
Otherwise, he would not have to constantly convince himself.
Cang Xiuxuan is such a keen person, General Weiyuan's performance has clearly illustrated the problem.
He smiled faintly and said, "You've already guessed whether the matter has anything to do with him. I didn't come empty-handed today. I brought you a gift by the way."
While talking about Cang Xiuxuan and the things he brought here, he brought them to General Weiyuan.
General Weiyuan didn't really want to see it, but he had to see it.
Originally, he thought that what Cang Xiuxuan brought over was a letter or something. After all, the best way to prove it was to get the secret letter.
But after seeing what he saw clearly, General Weiyuan began to doubt life.
"I believe that General, I don't need to say more. The General is well aware of the facts and takes his leave."
After leaving his things behind, Cang Xiuxuan left without saying anything more and left with his people.
Looking at the empty camp, General Weiyuan would have suspected that it was a dream if he hadn't been holding something in his hand.
Looking down at his hand, General Weiyuan pinched the thing tightly in his hand.
Anyone who sees this thing will know that it must be from the hand of the emperor. He likes to give these to people he trusts most.
He also has them there, and they all look the same. The slight difference lies in the words the emperor personally carved on them.
That's right, every word on it was engraved by the emperor himself. On the palm of his hand was engraved: For my friend.
And the one he wrote was "Love General!"
General Weiyuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He no longer doubted whether what Cang Xiuxuan said was true or false.
The emperor actually regarded a tribal leader who had been attacking them all year round as a friend!!!
What about their soldiers who died on the battlefield?
Their emperor colluded with others to come and kill them...
Hahahahaha...
No matter how much I think about it, I find it ridiculous!
Cang Xiuxuan and the others left without any delay, but Cang Yi was still a little worried.
"Master, do you really not need persuasion?"
This General Weiyuan is indeed a fierce general and a very upright man. If given the opportunity, Cang Yi would very much welcome him to appear in their team.
But if he is the one who is loyal to Beijing, don't blame them for being rude.
Cang Xiuxuan raised his hand and waved, "No need, he naturally knows how to choose."
Although General Weiyuan was a military general, he was just like those civil servants who cared about the world. The reason why they were loyal to Da Rong was because they felt that the current emperor really cared about the people.
But now what Cang Xiuxuan has done, such a simple act has begun to make him doubt his life.
That night, General Weiyuan never fell asleep again. The scene kept coming over and over in his mind.
As a general who leads troops to fight, even if he is not present, he can still be immersed in the scene just by imagining it.
What the situation was like at that time seems to be all before my eyes.
Their good emperor actually did not hesitate to let so many of his own people die in order to find a way to weaken Cang Xiuxuan!
Is there anything more ridiculous than this in the world?
On the second day, General Weiyuan walked around the entire temporary camp alone. Seeing the sallow faces of the soldiers, he suddenly felt that all they had done was meaningless.
On that day, General Weiyuan postponed the rest period for two more days.
Before he figured it out, this war must not be launched.
But just because he thinks this way does not mean that others think so too. Vice General Zhang had already thought about it before he came here. This time he would definitely make great military exploits and impress the emperor.
In his opinion, General Weiyuan and Cang Xiuxuan are just in vain. They have no ability at all. They were able to win before because of the good conditions given by the emperor.
Now that the emperor has appointed him, he is creating conditions for him, hoping that he can stand out.
This is because the emperor is training him, so he must seize this opportunity. He even wishes that General Weiyuan would not take any action here, and then let all the credit fall on himself.
"General, I thought tonight was a good time to launch a sneak attack. They could have imagined that we would rest here, but they never expected that we would be able to rest and recuperate so quickly. Launching a surprise attack now is absolutely foolproof."
Sneak attacks before a battle are a method that many people will adopt. Firstly, they can find out the details of the opponent, and secondly, they can also affect the opponent's morale.
There is nothing wrong with him thinking this way, but there are still many things he doesn't know.
"We must not act rashly."
General Weiyuan directly rejected his proposal.
This Vice General Zhang didn't even know who he was facing. He could get such things quietly. One can imagine how powerful he was.
Thinking about it again, when they came last night, they didn't alert anyone at all. Even though their military camp was resting, there were still patrols.
No one noticed anything was wrong last night.
"General, you are too conservative. Don't forget the emperor's instructions before we set off. The purpose of our visit this time is to capture this city and bring Cang Xiuxuan to the emperor. Now you are undoubtedly in danger.
By consuming our own strength, we can’t even resupply food and grass over such a long distance.”
