Chapter 169: The General Manager of Yangzhou pays homage
There is a large meeting tent in the Xuzhou camp, which is a place specially used to discuss major military situations.
In the afternoon of that day, all the military generals who had reached the fourth rank of the Xuzhou Camp received a summons order to discuss important matters in the meeting tent, convened by Xuexue.
In addition to being the envoy of the Privy Council and the commander-in-chief of the rear army, Xuexue's most important identity is Hama's younger brother, and Hama is the most favored minister around Emperor Yuan.
Therefore, after receiving Xuexue's summons, no one dared not to go, even King Jing and King Xining were no exception.
Brother Wang Meng was also within the gathering area. After receiving the order, he did not dare to delay, immediately put on his armor and headed towards the meeting tent.
In the past few days, he had watched with cold eyes, and what happened in the camp did not escape his eyes.
First, Haozhou was defeated, and then Jia Lu was accused of colluding with the Haozhou rebels, causing the Haozhou army to fail and was convicted. Then, Jia Lu committed suicide out of fear of guilt.
An old fox like Wang Mengge, who has been in the military camp for many years, naturally knows the connection and who is behind the scenes.
To be fair, he was quite conflicted. He was now a member of the King of Xining, so he should be on Tuotuo's side.
However, Tuotuo made Jia Lu a scapegoat, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
He didn't care whether Jia Lu died or not, it would be better if he died. What he cared about was that Tuo Tuo, as the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army, actually let his cronies take the blame in order to protect his brother.
For Brother Wang Meng, his biggest wish is to wipe out the Jiangdu bandits, not only to avenge his dead son, but also to put an end to the many confrontations between the two sides.
Now that Xuzhou has gathered so many elite soldiers and its strength exceeds 400,000, he was very confident that he could defeat Jiangdu's army.
However, first Haozhou was defeated, and then something like this happened. He believed that he was not the only one with a discerning eye, which had a great impact on morale. Wang Mengge's confidence in victory was also slightly shaken.
Of course, he is just dissatisfied. It is impossible for him to go to Tuotuo to protest.
The meeting tent was located between the gate and the Tuotuo Shuai tent. Brother Wang Meng quickly arrived in front of the tent.
Just as he was about to enter, a strange general suddenly came over from behind a military tent, raised his hands to Brother Wang Meng and said, "You are General Wang under Marshal Dong, right?"
Brother Wang Meng had been listening to Dong Tuanxiao's orders before, and there were many rumors from outside that he was Dong Tuanxiao's confidant, so he did not deny it.
"I am Brother Wang Meng, who are you and what can I do?"
The unfamiliar general took out a wooden stick from his back, handed it to Brother Wang Meng and said, "Please give this to Marshal Dong, and give him a message."
Brother Wang Meng looked at the stick, which seemed like a smaller door latch, and frowned: "What are you talking about?"
The unfamiliar general said: "Tell him not to enter the meeting tent!" After saying this, Wang Mengge turned around and left without waiting for more questions.
Brother Wang Meng thought that he was now a member of the King of Xining, so there was no need to help Dong Tuanxiao carry things and deliver messages.
Besides, this matter was probably related to the fight between Tuotuo and Xuexue, and I didn’t want to get involved. So I threw the wooden stick away and walked into the meeting camp.
At this moment, more than twenty generals have gathered in the camp, most of them are fierce generals in the Yuan army.
The generals had similar thoughts to Brother Wang Meng, and did not intend to get involved in the fight between Tuotuo and Xuexue. They stood in two rows in the camp, and it was eerily quiet.
Not long after, there was the sound of footsteps, and Tuotuo led King Jing and King Xining over first.
After a while, Xuexue brought Tai Buhua and Dong Tuanxiao into the tent.
There were only six seats in the tent, and Tuotuo sat on the chief seat. King Jing and King Xining sat beside him on the left and right.
The other three positions are those of Xuexue, Taibuhua and Chahan Timur.
King Jing was the most impatient. He immediately stood up and said angrily: "Xuexue, I have made it very clear to you about Jia Lu before, why do you still call everyone to discuss the big account?"
Xuexue ignored him, glanced at one of the empty seats, and frowned: "Why didn't the commander-in-chief of the Left Army arrive?"
Taibu Huadao: "I'll send someone to urge you."
Just as he was about to leave the camp, a general suddenly came in. He cupped his hands and said to Tai Buhua: "Prime Minister Zuo, my commander-in-chief caught a cold last night and was unable to attend today's meeting. I have specially ordered the general to come and apologize to Zuo Prime Minister and the envoy!" Tai Chahan Timur didn't want to get involved and looked at Xuexue.
Xuexue sneered, no longer waiting for Chahan, and directly attacked Tuotuo: "Prime Minister, I still think there is something wrong with Jia Lu's matter. Let's make it clear in front of everyone!"
King Xining was about to retort when Tuotuo winked and signaled him to calm down and said to Xuexue: "That's fine. I wonder what the Snow Palm Commander thinks is wrong?"
Xuexue said loudly: "Excuse me, Prime Minister, you said that the responsibility for the battle of Haozhou lies with Jialu. What evidence is there?"
King Jing said angrily: "That letter is evidence!"
Xuexue sneered and said: "Only you have seen that letter, none of us have seen it. Maybe there is no such letter at all!"
King Xining said: "If the Snow Palm envoy doesn't believe it, you might as well see it clearly for yourself, and quickly show him the letter!"
Ye quickly looked towards Tuotuo, Tuotuo remained silent.
Xuexue said sharply: "Why, don't you dare to show it to others?"
Tuotuo finally nodded, quickly took out the letter from his sleeve, handed it to Xuexue, and said: "Please read it clearly, this letter is the evidence of crime found by the city defense!"
Xuexue took the letter in her hand and winked at Dong Tuanxiao, who immediately lit a fire and slowly approached the letter.
King Jing said angrily: "Xuexue, do you want to destroy the evidence?"
Xuexue ignored him and burned the letter paper with fire for a while. Her eyes began to shine, and a row of small characters slowly appeared on the top of the letter paper.
When he picked it up and looked at it, he couldn't help laughing. Xuan'er said sharply: "Prime Minister Tuotuo, look at what's written on it?"
Tuotuo's eyes flashed but he said nothing.
Xuexue faced the crowd and read loudly: "Thank you, Prime Minister Tuotuo, for getting rid of the Jia thieves for me. I pay my respects to Zhang Yangquan, the general manager of Yangzhou!"
He raised his hand and said loudly: "Listen, this letter is clearly a letter from Jiangdu thieves to frame Jia Lu. Our Prime Minister Tuotuo didn't know the truth and killed the most trusted general. It's really ridiculous!" p>

All the generals changed their colors.
Brother Wang Meng's face became ugly, thinking that Tuotuo had been teased by Zhang Yangquan like this, which really embarrassed the Mongolians!
King Xining and King Jing also remained silent.
Xuexue held her head high, like a big rooster that had successfully courted, and handed the letter to Tai Buhua, saying: "Take it over so that everyone can see it clearly!"
Brother Wang Meng stretched out his head to read and found that the content written in the letter was exactly the same as what Xuexue read. He was extremely disappointed with Tuotuo and looked at him.
A scene that surprised him happened, Tuotuo actually showed a smile.
……
Zhang Yangquan stood by the window, looking up at the white clouds in the sky, holding a letter tightly in his hand.
This letter was just sent by the Military Intelligence Agency. It was written by Geng Si himself. The content on the paper shocked him very much.
Fu Youde has completed two tasks outstandingly, but the result is surprising - Xuexue was transferred from the military camp, Dong Juanxiao was imprisoned, and Tuotuo still firmly controls the Xuzhou camp.
While he was thinking, there was a knock on the door. As soon as Zhang Yangquan turned around, he saw Qin Lingjun walking in.
"I heard that Geng Si sent back the news. How is the situation?" she asked.
Zhang Yangquan handed the letter to her and said, "Read it for yourself." He walked to a chair and sat down.
After Qin Lingsi read it, her eyebrows immediately tightened and she asked in surprise: "How could this be so? Could it be that Tuotuo could really cover the sky with one hand in the military camp?"
Zhang Yangquan leaned on the back of his chair, crossed his hands and said: "No matter how powerful he is, if Xuexue exposes the contents of the letter in public, it will definitely arouse public outrage, and it will never lead to the current result!"
Qin Lingjun said: "Then why is this result?"
Zhang Yangquan sighed and said: "I have been thinking about this issue just now. Is there any way Tuotuo can turn defeat into victory and create the current situation?"
Qin Lingjun raised her eyes and said, "Have you thought of it?"
Zhang Yangquan nodded: "There is only one possibility!"
"What?"
Zhang Yangquan said word by word: "Jia Lu is not dead!"
