The former Lingnan Jiedu envoy died tragically outside the imperial city gate of the capital. The forces of Jiannan Road and Qianzhong Road have begun to penetrate into Lingnan Road. The half-month period mentioned by Xiao Min has no room for discussion for the imperial envoys who convey the decree. And this
The Battle of Bian Chunliang was coming to an end, and it seemed that there was really no need to discuss it.
At this time, Xiao Min's army had a total of 150,000 troops available in the Daozhou area, while Bian Chunliang only had 5,000 remaining troops.
The emperor's secret order stated that Xiao Min would lead an army of 100,000 to Lingnan Road to take charge of the overall situation, but 50,000 troops would still be left to continue the purge of Bian Chunliang——
No matter from any aspect, it was not a rash decision to end this war that had no suspense with 50,000 victorious troops. It even showed how much the emperor was afraid of Bian Chunliang.
The imperial envoy conveyed the order and made it clear to Xiao Min all the pros and cons. The eunuch who had been following the army for a long time said at the right time: [General Xiao, just rush to Lingnan with peace of mind. Our family and General Lou will definitely clean up the remnants of Bian Chunliang as soon as possible. It will be inevitable before the year.
Can give His Majesty and the DPRK a satisfactory explanation.]
The battle between the DPRK and the Bian Chunliang rebels has lasted for nearly three years, from the beginning to the fierceness, and now it is about to end.
At this point, if Xiao Min talks too much, he will be suspected of refusing to resist the order.
The power of the eunuchs in the army was greater than that of Xiao Min. Xiao Min knew very well that if civil strife started for this reason, it would be a bad idea for both the Bian army and the situation in Lingnan, and it was really unnecessary.
Afterwards, former deputy coach Lou Jingshan, who was ordered to take over Xiao Min's position as coach, had a long talk with Xiao Min alone.
Lou Jingshan was a commander of the Forbidden Army. Before Li Xian's death, he rushed to the battlefield of Jiangnan West Road together with the eunuchs who supervise the army, and served as deputy commander in the army.
When the steward saw that the old man was in an ordinary state, he asked him to wait and passed on to Xiao Min.
The moment he saw Mei Gu Ji, Mei Gu's spirits perked up - "My lord, it was you who deceived me, he really did come."
After fighting side by side all the way, the eldest grandson had quite a bad impression of the young man. Although he lacked battlefield experience, he was humble and impetuous. After that period of hard work, he had gradually revealed the qualities of a good general.
After that, when I passed through Qianzhou, I was invited by the Wang Yue family, and I never met the old head of the Wang Yue family.
Xiao Min nodded suddenly on the surface, but he was beating a drum in his heart - Jiezhi, you actually said your words in such a deadly way? How can you make it right?
"Mr. Zheng, it's been a while since we've seen you." Wang Yueji straightened up.
Wang Yueji's eyebrows looked lively and he shook his head slightly: "It's definitely a change."
At that time, classes in seven colleges had already dismissed, and students were walking in and out chatting and laughing. People from many years ago came to the rumored college, explained their purpose of asking to meet the head of the college, Xiao Min, and claimed to be old acquaintances.
The boy served him cold tea and went in again.
Who would have thought that Wang Yuelangjun would actually come to Jiangdu in person...
"Let's discuss the small matters of choosing a master together"...
Wang Yueji also smiled: "It seems that Mr. has found his home in that place with pleasant feng shui."
At this time, Wang Yueji tried to invite me to assist King Rong together. Before I declined, Wang Yueji mentioned General Xiao again, with the intention of choosing the leader and assistant together with General Xiao.
When Lou Jingshan heard the words "his 70,000 soldiers and horses" from the eldest grandson, his heart trembled, and he suddenly felt that he no longer had any responsibility, so he bowed deeply to the eldest grandson and said, "I must be responsible for Mei Guyong's trust."
Mei Guyong was in Jiangdu. For many years, people in the governor's office had known that the people in the governor's office were really living, so he thought that after he came to visit, he had no idea.
So, the purpose of Wang Yueji's coming here, is it me, Mei Gu, or Mei Guyong?
During the Yuezhou plague incident, and in this fighting purgatory that lasted until dawn, in this great confusion, I saw the true colors of those in power, and how the current dynasty was about to expire.
On this day, a caravan from the west was allowed to enter the city before being inspected.
Xiao Min tasted those words in his heart, and after seeing them again, he obviously believed them to be true for many years. He felt some sympathy in his heart for no reason, and said "I see". Why did he ask: "...The world is in such chaos, Mr. Wang Yuelang
Are my family members willing to agree to go to Jiangdu in person?"
The handwriting under the letter paper in his hand is restrained and calm, which shows that the person writing the letter is in a peaceful and disorderly mood. However, what is revealed underneath is a shocking secret that has never been revealed to the world.
And if it was to persuade General Xiao to submit to Prince Rong... it would be as complicated as plucking the hair out. Xiao Min would rather call it a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.
A fine and heavy snowfall also fell in Jiangdu City outside the winter moon.
That day, the weather in the south was sunny and bad.
Wang Yueji expressed the purpose of his trip: "It took me several months to come to Jiangdu. On the way, I found out that Sun's envoy had led his troops to leave Jiangdu. In addition, it was getting late today, so I planned to go to Jiangdu early tomorrow morning.
Then he formally visited the governor's house in Jiangdu. After that, I wanted to see Mr. Zheng. He was someone whom Sun's envoy valued. I dared to ask if he knew who the Sun's envoy chose as the Ming Dynasty master.
?”
But the former's sincerity was completely beyond the latter's imagination.
Xiao Min smiled and nodded: "Jiangdu Feng Shui nourishes people."
Before hearing the news about General Xiao's recapture of Luoyang on the way, Wang Yueji further strengthened his views.
In the end, I did not pick up the tea cup, and respected the sincerity of those who have been here for many years, and said: "In this way, I hope that Mr. Wang Yuelang will be able to fulfill his wish during his trip to the Governor's Mansion tomorrow."
Xiao Min listened to the sincere words "If you believe you, I will deceive you" from someone who has been with him for many years, he was silent for a while and smiled nonchalantly.
As both military commanders, Mei Gu treated him with sympathy. He had always been stingy in giving him advice, but he also seriously warned him: "Although the war is coming to an end, it is time to lose focus. Remember what you said to him."
, always try to be enemies with the people. If the people's hearts turn against them, disaster will come back to them...]
Xiao Min was surprised when he saw the man taking off his hood behind him, revealing a handsome face, and saluting him for many years: "Wang Yuelangjun?"
"The tribe originally agreed, but you insisted on it later." Wang Yueji said seriously: "You and Chang Sui Ning have not crossed paths since they were in the capital. You trust your character and I suspect that I will deceive you."
The truth behind my aunt's murder by Ming Jin was that Mei Guyong set up a trap to expose it. As a witness, I have witnessed Chang Sui Ning's courage and justice with my own eyes.
Lou Jingshan responded seriously, looked at his eldest grandson with some worry, cupped his hands and said: "Bian Chunliang must take care of himself when we go to Lingnan."
Your hand holding the sack is really stretched far enough.
That was my grandfather's last wish after his death, and it was also the mission of my Wang Yue family. The mission itself was even lower than all interests.
Seeing that Xiao Min was silent for a moment, Wang Yueji said frankly: "The Sun family's envoy said in the letter that you also intend to support the Li family."
[Yes.] Mei Gu smiled and patted the young man on the shoulder: [If he really cares about you, he will start the war there as soon as possible and take his 70,000 troops to Lingnan to help you.]
Xiao Min feels that he has no responsibility to test the emperor's worries by sharing his salary and worries: "The Wang Yue family's intention to support the Li family... is it known and has not changed?"
Xiao Min quickly asked me to sit down and talk.
In Changsun's view, the seedling selected and cultivated by the current saint is still very useful, and given time, it will become a small weapon.
The caravan temporarily stopped in an inn in the city to relieve its fatigue. As evening approached, the heavy snowfall had not stopped. The man in the caravan, who had been wearing a blue cloak for many years, put on a wind-blocking hood, took two people with him, and went out.
Leave the inn.
Now, I am finally going to take the path I really want to take.
Mei Gu was slightly shocked - what happened?
I know that the tribesmen who have experienced countless ups and downs are more mature, but I still doubt my own judgment even more before I am firm again.
Chang Jie: "...?!"
Going to the new master alone will inevitably lead to false scarcity. Since the imperial court still needs me, I will go to Lingnan with one hundred thousand troops, sharpen the blade in my hand, wait for the new master's order, and fulfill the promise of peace.
Under the horse's back, the eldest grandson gave a rare slow smile and said: "The chaos in the south of Lingnan will determine the overall situation in the sky!"
After many years of walking there, I have never felt more realistic.
Vice General Ao's eyes trembled slightly, he raised his fists holding the reins, and said silently: "I will lead the general to the death!"
There was no irony in Xiao Min's smile. As a former top rebel among the gentry's children, Mei Gu always tried to make fun of those who had a sincere heart.
For a moment, what he said made the man who thought he had forged a forty-four sense of calmness look trembling.
I can only wish you so much.
Mei Gu turned back first and glanced in the direction of the Daozhou military camp.
There was a curfew in Jiangdu, and heavy snow covered the green tiles. At this time, the streets were crowded with people, and the lights and snow reflected each other, which seemed to embellish the city with a brilliance of harmony between heaven and man.
Qianzhong Road, where Qianzhou is located, has been controlled by King Rong. Faced with King Rong's recruitment, we, the Wangyue clan, have always maintained an ambiguous attitude, and this is a long-term plan after all.
During those days, Vice General Ao had vaguely noticed that his general seemed to have no other plans. When he was about to leave, he tried to ask: "General, let's go..."
I have fulfilled all my responsibilities based on the decisions made by the imperial court, and I feel guilty about leaving here.
Mei Gu smiled and sighed, indirectly expressing his attitude: "Yes, I should try my best to repay you for the kindness I received from you."
In the caravan, inside a carriage, the curtains of the carriage were raised, giving a panoramic view of the street scenery along the way.
The co-author, Wang Yuelangjun, tried to persuade General Xiao by letter but failed, and instead was tricked by General Xiao into coming to Jiangdu?
Early the next morning, as soon as the snow had been cleared away from the Jiangdu Governor's Mansion, Wang Yueji came to the door.
I said: "Jiangdu is indeed a bad place. The juniors who come all the way never feel like they have strayed into a paradise... The academic and political education that Mr. Jiang is pursuing is indeed something that only Jiangdu and Meigu can provide."
Xiao Min felt that the idea was too whimsical at that time, so he tactfully suggested that Wang Yue should write a letter to General Xiao on his birthday.
If you still miss me, Xiao Min, I really want to praise you for your bravery. You dare to come to Jiangdu to poach people and pry corners. Is this like plucking hair from the head of a tiger?
"The envoy has nothing to say. When Mr. Mei Gu reads this letter, he will understand everything."
There was a trace of shame on Xiao Min's face, and he said with a smile: "Zheng knows that he lacks resourcefulness. He has always been responsible for the academic affairs of the Seventh Academy, and has never been involved in trivial decisions such as envoys... But there is a way to clear up Mr. Wang Yuelang's doubts.
"
There was no deep meaning in those words. After all, it was difficult for Xiao Min to doubt that no one would be willing to doubt whether General Xiao had the ambition to be independent at this time, let alone the members of the Wang Yue clan——
Xiao Min was alone. He had earlier declined General Xiao's offer to buy him a residence in the city, and had been living in the academy. It was snowing today, so I had dinner early and was about to take a rest, but I never thought that there would be no late guests.
"Although your envoy is in Jiangdu, he has not explained it for a long time. He has been worried about Wang Yuelangjun's arrival here..." Chang Jie took out a letter: "This is the envoy's order after Luoyang sent troops to the north.
The letter sent back by someone was specially entrusted to me and handed over to Mr. Mei Gu personally."
Wang Yueji came with a personal reply from General Xiao, and because General Xiao had not communicated with me since he left Jiangdu, I received the lowest standard of reception and was taken to see Chang Jie by Gu Qilang.
Mei Guji dared to be careless, so she took it with both hands and opened the letter on the spot.
After handing over all affairs, before Mei Gu had finished everything he could do, he took a hundred thousand troops and set off for Lingnan Road, which is adjacent to Daozhou.
Many people for many years had a look of realization, "This shows that the Sun family is really not that extraordinary", which made Xiao Min speechless in his heart.
I was also very surprised by the identity of the visitor.
Xiao Min nodded and did not hesitate to say anything.
Since I am now the head of the Wang Yue family, it is my duty to listen to the opinions of my clan members, but I can also lose my own judgment - because of that sentence, I was able to convince several uncles.
I went to the appointment with sincerity, and General Xiao treated me with sincerity.
At this point, Wang Yueji said: "I'm really hiding this from you sir. This junior came to Jiangdu secretly because he was invited by the Sun family's envoy to discuss the matter of choosing a master."
Although Wang Yueji was over seventeen or eighteen years old, his growth rate was unparalleled. I didn't hesitate to get to the point. After finishing a cup of tea, I said: "Before we parted ways in Qianzhou, sir, he seemed to have changed very little."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I am just not confused at all. Then Wang Yuelang is so convinced that General Xiao will bully each other. He came with this trust in his heart. If he is betrayed, he will be betrayed.
It may be difficult to compromise... If General Xiao had such a legacy, would he have thought of the consequences?
The saint valued the ownership of Lingnan Road very much, and had no intention of taking advantage of Lingnan's geographical location to flank Jiannan Road and Qianzhong Road. Therefore, he made a secret edict without saying anything. After Bian Jun's rebellion was completely subsided, he sent Lou Jingshan to lead his army to fight with Changsun.
meet.
Vice General Ao straightened his back, then turned his head when he saw Chang Sun, and said to me again: "It's for the imperial court."
[Please worry about Bian Chunliang.] Lou Jingshan said to Changsun: [You will definitely fight the winning battle for the general badly.]
During the exchange of pleasantries between him and others, Xiao Min made some guesses as to Wang Yueji's purpose of coming.
Apart from this, Changjie said little and only put down the back of the book.
Mei Guji's eyes were filled with disbelief. He raised his eyes and almost subconsciously asked Mei Gu opposite him: "... Envoy... my surname is Li?!"
The eldest grandson looked to the north and rode away.
Wang Yueji served tea and served as a gift, his eyes shining brightly: "With Sir's auspicious words, Ji also very much hopes to be able to go with Mr. Mei Gu and Mr. Mei Guji."
When Wang Yueji heard this, he didn't look disappointed. Instead, he showed real surprise, and his eyes brightened a bit: "Mr. Zheng knows what the Sun family's envoy is going for, but he still trusts him wholeheartedly... How much trust is that?"
In the confusion of many days and nights, Wang Yueji really wanted to hear Mei Guyong's thoughts - you are a courageous person, and you are also one of the heroes who can be ignored nowadays. Regardless of whether the final opinion can be reached,
Your words are all worth listening to.
For this reason, I am willing to persist in the future, which is my pretense to express trust.
