When Guo Rong saw Luo Youdu responded, he raised his head and laughed loudly.
Luo Youdu finally got to know his boss better.
He is a gambler by nature, he likes gambling and dares to make big bets.
After succeeding to the throne, I encountered the first test in my life, so I chose Stud.
Feng Dao persuaded him so much at that time, but he still insisted on going his own way and chose to conquer the Northern Han Dynasty himself.
In the end, he reluctantly won the bet, which established his prestige, stabilized the temple, and suppressed those Jiedushi who were ready to move.
This time he started betting again, but this time his bet was on himself.
After laughing for a while, Guo Rong said: "Sir, do you have any suggestions for candidates for the expedition?"
Luo Youdu said straightforwardly: "As long as Your Majesty does not arrange to criticize your general as a commander in the palace that day, I am not familiar with other generals in the army, and I don't know their abilities. Your Majesty can make your own decision."
Guo Rong patted his chest and said, "That's fine, sir. Don't worry. How can I put you in danger? I will select a reliable general from the army to act as your guard to protect you."
Luo Youdu felt relieved immediately.
It is too risky for a supervisor to supervise the war alone.
If you have a troop that can be deployed, the situation will be different, at least there won't be too much risk.
Wang Pu's work efficiency was extremely high. At noon the next day after they decided on the strategy for the Great Zhou Dynasty, a group of ragged and dusty Qinchuan people were already blocking the entrance to the imperial city.
The one they cried was heartbroken, and they scolded Meng Chang for his absurdity. They cried and shouted, hoping that Guo Rong, the emperor of Zhou Dynasty, would send troops to save his people and rescue the people of Qinchuan who were in distress.
Water and fire.
Luo Youdu didn't know how many people believed in this sudden situation, but what is certain is that no one dared to choose not to believe it.
In particular, the generals turned red-eyed and transformed into messengers of justice. They kept recommending themselves and enthusiastically asked for battle.
With this momentum, Fan Zhi and Wang Pu, the two prime ministers who advocated recuperation and slowly trying to control the world, could not control it and could only acquiesce to the suggestion of sending troops.
After some wrangling, he finally decided on the candidate himself. Han Lingkun, the commander of the guards' pro-army and horse army and the military governor of the military army, was appointed as the commander-in-chief, and Zan Jurun, the guest envoy of the Hakka Province, was assisted. Together with Wang Jing, the military governor of Fengxiang, they attacked Meng Shu.
After the main personnel orders were issued, Guo Rong immediately announced the appointment of Luo Youdu, a bachelor of Duanming Palace, as the governor.
This appointment was made as Luo Youdu expected.
It was like a blockbuster bomb exploded among the warriors.
Dujian?
What era did this happen?
What this general emphasizes when marching and fighting outside is that he can do whatever he wants and fight with his hands and feet tied. Who can win?
Since Guo Rong won the battle of Gaoping, he has established his prestige, and coupled with the layout these days, he is confident to make a decision with one word.
That night, Han Lingkun's house was very lively.
Not to mention Shi Shouxin, Li Jixun, Wang Shenqi, Han Chongyun and other generals who were originally unhappy with Luo Youdu.
There were also General Zuo Shenwu, the envoy of Xuanhui Nanyuan, Xiang Xun, the envoy of Zhen'an Jiedu, Li Hanchao, the commander in front of the palace, and He Jiyun, the acquaintance of the inner palace. Many high-ranking generals gathered at Han Lingkun's house.
Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Kuangyi are naturally among them.
On the surface, they were congratulating Han Lingkun for winning the position of head coach, but their real purpose was self-evident.
Because this matter was an edict issued by Guo Rong himself, they did not dare to openly contradict Guo Rong.
Xiang Xun spoke sourly at the wine table about the incident in which the supervisor Bian Lingcheng forced Gao Xianzhi of the Tang Dynasty to death.
This high-status general knew the inside story of the war early on, and relied on many connections to hope to get the position of head coach. In the end, it ended up with Han Lingkun, who had lower qualifications and status than him.
Others are similar. Although they dare not explicitly accuse Guo Rong of improper use of troops, there are many examples in history where the supervisory army caused chaos and led to victory turning into defeat.
The entire congratulatory banquet was like a meeting to criticize the supervisors.
As the host of the banquet, Han Lingkun was embarrassed and helpless, and could not express his position, but deep down he was extremely unhappy with Luo Youdu.
Regardless of whether Luo Youdu will become a military supervisor like Bian Lingcheng, Han Lingkun, as the commander-in-chief, does not like having someone to watch over him and restrain his hands.
It’s just that the Holy Order is coming, so what can be done?
Han Lingkun was in a dilemma and found his old boss Li Chongjin overnight.
Han Lingkun explained all his difficulties.
"Mr. Minister, we are just a rough man, how can we interact with a scholar? They all stand and talk without hurting their backs, and some of them even hinted that we would do something dirty and kill Luo Youdu. Damn it, if Luo Youdu is killed, he will pay for my life.
!”
After Li Chongjin quietly listened to Han Lingkun's chatter, someone brought him a cup of tea to relieve Han Lingkun's anger.
Han Lingkun was not polite, blew the hot air, drank a large gulp of tea and tea leaves into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it into his stomach.
Li Chongjin smiled and said: "Actually, the officials are not to blame for this matter."
Han Lingkun said hurriedly: "We don't dare to blame the officials, we only blame ourselves for being unlucky."
Li Chongjin continued: "The officials now do not pamper you as much as before. The officials have great ambitions. Think about the habit of leading troops in wars before. Wherever they go and where they kill, the rich man of the village will kill the whole village.
It's been looted. After conquering a city, we first rob it for three to five days and let our soldiers eat meat. If we continue like this, what will the officials be able to do to unify it?"
Han Lingkun protested: "We don't do this kind of thing much."
"So!" Li Chongjin said: "In this expedition, the commander-in-chief falls to you. Otherwise, do you think you can be the commander-in-chief based on your qualifications and merits? Xiang Xun, Shi Shouxin, which one is not more suitable than you?"
Han Lingkun was speechless. Although he did not think that his strategy would be inferior to that of Xiang Xun and Shi Shouxin, compared with them, he lacked the opportunity to stand alone.
Li Chongjin said: "Next, the officials will be stricter on military law. Some bad habits must be curbed. Wang Jixun is just the beginning, not the end. Why do you think the officials let Luo Youdu be the supervisor? How many things did he dare to do?
If a pariah guard killed Wang Jixun, he would dare to kill any of you for the sake of the people."
Han Lingkun heard this and complained: "Isn't that the same as having an ancestor?"
Li Chongjin said: "That's not the case. As for Luo Youdu, as long as you don't violate military law, he can't do anything to you. This guy is a smart man and won't embarrass you and let you use excuses to deal with him."
After a pause, he continued: "We can't let him have an easy time as a supervisor. We can embarrass him as much as we want. Also, find an opportunity to put a sack on him and beat him up. Even if he is exposed, we will
A few people will help you carry it. In any case, the example of supervising the army cannot be used. I don't want to have an ancestor dictating by my side in future wars."
What Han Lingkun wanted was this sentence, and he said: "I understand!"
