Devil’s Advent

The hot pot has long been removed from the bonfire, but Uncle Zheng's heart is still churning.

King Jingnan revealed the plan of the war against Chu to him, even Uncle Zheng, who was used to the storm, was also shocked.

This is the national war. If you count the civilian husbands, there are millions of people involved.

This is Tian Wujing, when he manages the army and marches to fight, he can be meticulous in every aspect, but in terms of general strategy, he can also outline the blueprint in his own heart for you.

The literati in Qianguo wrote poems and lyrics, and they often like the mountains and rivers are picturesque and the mountains and rivers are so beautiful, but in the eyes of the generals, the mountains and rivers are just a huge sand table with cities, lakes, mountains and hills on it. Whether the mountains and rivers are picturesque or not, they don't know , because they don't care, what they care about is to use the gold and iron horse under their command as a whip to whip this majestic and vast.

There was nothing unexpected about my own position, it was arranged by King Jingnan early on.

Even, from this point of view, the battle of Yangshanzhai was a foreshadowing;

Originally, Uncle Zheng thought that it was to get credit for himself. However, now it seems that the real purpose is not here. King Jingnan's idea is probably to allow himself to consume the credit as he deserves in the early stage. With a lot of strength, he was able to justifiably lead his subordinates to retreat from the frontline battlefield to rest, and while accumulating and recovering strength in the rear, laid the groundwork for the next boat trip to Chu to attack Jingcheng.

It's just that, in the battle of Dongshan Fort, although Shi Yuantang counterattacked unexpectedly, he was pushed back by himself in the end and took Dongshan Fort by himself.

In fact, this had no effect on King Jingnan's arrangement, but played a better role in promoting it.

Because I don't have to wait any longer for this one, and I can now retire in a grandiose manner to rest and replenish my troops and strength, and the solid military achievements and achievements are here, no one dares to say a word about it;

Even the people of Chu would feel that it is normal to not see the Zheng flag in the next battlefield. Uncle Hirano and his troops disappeared in the first battle of the Yan army on the front line The sequence is also a matter of course.

After all, it is not that the casualties are so large.

The rapid breach of Dongshan Fort accelerated King Jingnan's plan and made him more calm in arranging the flag.

Even, you can call yourself to his side again, and continue to teach by precept and example.

Just as the generals gave speeches to encourage their soldiers before the battle, in order to add more murderous spirit to them before the charge;

Of course, King Jingnan knew how challenging and difficult this large-handed attack meant to the leading generals, so, taking this opportunity to pull himself to his side was also a way to hug himself again.

This is one;

The second is, during this period of rest and development, allow yourself to formally appear beside him, give you a sense of presence, and elevate your status in the Chu Chu army.

Since ancient times, when the leader's cronies are by the leader's side, they naturally have a detached position, and the people below are mostly flattering to you, but once they are transferred to gold plating, they often have a situation of high-mindedness and low-handedness. At the same time, those who originally flattered you will also look at you with a cold eye .

The lucky ones are not good in any group.

Uncle Zheng has no hidden dangers in this regard, because his military achievements are real, and no one in the Dayan army...even in the Chu army, would question Uncle Hirano's ability to fight.

Coupled with King Jingnan's almost undisguised importance, it can be said that supporting Uncle Hirano in the Dayan Army can be said to be twice the result with half the effort.

The wind blowing in the afternoon brought a heat wave, and finally made Uncle Zheng wake up from the previous emotional turmoil.

He pointed to the remaining maocai, and said to Gongsun Yan and Gong Lin:

Don't waste food.

Yes, uncle.

Yes, uncle.

Uncle Zheng stood up, and seemed to think of something, and said:

In the afternoon, you guys draw the defense plan near Wang's tent and give it to me.

Both Gongsun Yan and Gong Lin showed excitement on their faces. They thought that Uncle Hirano was teaching them.

But Uncle Zheng just felt that letting them stay here in such a desolate place would make them uncomfortable when he went to see their father in the future, so he simply assigned a random job, regardless of whether it was meaningful or not, and let them get busy first.

After leaving his tent, Uncle Zheng walked back to the king's tent, and after opening the curtain, Tian Wujing was already sitting in the first seat.

On the seat where Uncle Zheng sat in the morning, there were more notebooks piled up.

Uncle Zheng didn't say anything, he quietly sat back in his seat and began to give instructions.

Exhibits are constantly being sent in, some from the back and some from the front;

At the same time, Uncle Zheng had to write an inquiry paper on behalf of King Jingnan and send it out.

It’s still the same way as before, when we talk about procedural things, Uncle Zheng takes advantage of the trend and streamlines them. Some ideas are needed and it’s not a difficult problem. Uncle Zheng will make instructions himself, and some things need to be glanced at by King Jingnan. , are placed separately.

After submitting,

Tian Wujing didn't look at the other two piles, and instead picked up the three copies that were placed together separately.

One was that a garrison of Xue Chugui's department drank in the camp, and the military discipline officer of Xue Chugui's department gave him a fine salary and then demoted him to the forward battalion.

When Uncle Zheng gave the instructions, the owl headed and passed on to the whole army.

One is that after Ma Youliang failed to attack an army stronghold, the centurion died in battle, and the remaining ten were withdrawn and sentenced to beheaded.

According to the law of the Yan army, the main general died in battle but was not victorious, and his subordinates were buried with him alive.

The instructions given by Uncle Zheng are: Withdraw the beheading and send the vanguard to take the blame.

For one thing, a gang fight of hundreds of people broke out in the civilian husband camp of the Luoling Department.

The military disciplinary officer gave the beheading of the leaders of both sides and the lieutenants of the civilian camps of both sides, and the followers were whipped.

It can be said that each played 30 big boards.

The instruction given by Uncle Zheng was that only the civilians in Jin and the lieutenants of the civilian camp were punished.

Punishments in the army often see blood, because the army is a weapon for killing, and the law must be strict, otherwise it will be impossible to restrain these gangsters who are licking blood with their knives.

Therefore, the judgment is often accompanied by beheading, which is very different from the magistrate who likes to be gentle and cautious when adjudicating cases and is extremely cautious about life lawsuits.

Because Tian Wujing likes to pay attention to details and control when using and managing the army personally, these documents will be submitted to the king's tent for Tian Wujing to review.

The army gathered, and the soldiers, auxiliary soldiers, and civilian husbands added up to more than a million. Because the imperial power did not go to the countryside, the prefect of Fuzhou in Yandi would not actually control so many people.

Tian Wujing put down the first notebook and said:

Xue Chugui is not strict in governing the army, twenty lashes.

This is because King Jingnan felt that it was not enough to just kill the guard, and he had to punish the general as well.

Tian Wujing put down the second notebook and said:

A siege battle is different from a field charge, and the military law is different. It is sent to the generals of the army for review, and they are ordered to make their own decisions.

On the snowfield back then, because of the habit of the Zhenbei Army, Li Fusheng's troops had withdrawn troops from the rear, but the soldiers did not return, causing more casualties.

The generals take the lead and the soldiers protect the generals. In this atmosphere, the army can have real combat effectiveness and be fearless, but it is a field battle, and siege warfare pays too much attention to details. It is a completely different way of warfare. Some military laws, Out of season.

As for the third fold,

Tian Wujing raised his head, glanced at Zheng Fan, threw down the folder,

road:

Tell me.

The fight between the civilian husbands is still the fight between the civilian husbands of Yan and Jin. It stands to reason that the original punishment of the military discipline officer is correct. At present, the overall situation should be the most important. The people and soldiers of Jin are also a force that cannot be ignored in defeating Chu.

The last general thinks that the food for civilian husbands is determined by the Shangguan, and the responsibility for this matter should also be with the Shangguan. Besides...

Is it intentional favoritism?

King Jingnan interrupted Uncle Zheng.

yes.

Why.

Our army is the Yan army, the people of Yan land, who have traveled from Yan land to participate in the national war, and should be given preferential treatment.

My lord thought that Uncle Hirano's favorite thing to talk about was that of literati.

Because under Uncle Hirano's command, the Yan people are not the majority, but the barbarians, Jin people, and the current savages are the real majority.

My lord, the last general is a special case. From the overall point of view, we can really rely on the old Yan people in this war against Chu. If it was in our department, I would use other methods to deal with it, but this matter It happened in the Luoling Department, which is the headquarters of the Prince's Jingnan Army, so it cannot be dealt with like this.

The sixth prince once pointed to the barbarians and said to the general that the barbarians are fearful of power and not virtuous; Jin people are not barbarians, but at least for now, Jin people, as the newly conquered people of my Dayan, will be swept away by my Dayan Entering this national war, their dissatisfaction is certain.

Therefore, if a bowl of water is flat, Jin people will not appreciate it, and Yan people will be sad.

Instead of falling at both ends, it is better to grasp the root first.

Yan and Jin are equal, treat Jin people as Yan people, and turn Jin people into Yan people. We have to wait until we break through Zhennan Pass and cut off the threat from Chu before we can do so.

at last,

Uncle Zheng added another sentence very solemnly:

No matter when, no matter what the circumstances, the old Yan people, the Yan people, and the Yan army will always be the true foundation of my Great Yan.

Tian Wujing looked at Zheng Fan seriously,

Zheng Fan stood there very calmly.

finally,

Tian Wujing nodded,

road:

Just do it.

Yes, my lord.

Help me put on armor, follow me, and go to Li Fusheng's department to have a look.

Uncle Zheng helped King Jingnan put on his armor.

Subsequently,

There were soldiers outside who brought the two people's Pixiu.

With only a hundred or so cavalry as guards, Uncle Zheng and King Jingnan left the Chinese Army Dazhai together.

Gongsun Yan, who was drawing blueprints for records there, raised his head and looked at the team that had just left. He was still young and couldn't help saying:

Uncle looks like the prince.

The same Pixiu,

the same golden armor,

There is also an inexplicable feeling that makes people feel that they are very similar.

Gong Lin heard this,

road:

My father said that our uncle is the successor appointed by the prince.

immediately,

Gong Lin realized that she talked too much, maybe the Gongsun Yan in front of her was too young, so she was negligent and made a mistake of talking too much.

Unexpectedly, Gongsun Yan nodded and said:

My father said so too.

...

Compared with Dongshan Fort's quick defeat, Xishan Fort fell into a long-term stalemate.

If Li Fusheng were to choose, he would definitely be more willing to choose Zheng Fan's situation.

When the defenders came out, he pushed over again, simply and swiftly, and the battle was over.

better than now...

Straight mother thief, I'm so mad!

Li Fusheng dropped the military flag in his hand, and spit on the ground twice.

Today's offensive stopped again, the Yan army began to retreat, and the Chu people on the city wall cheered.

Report, General, Prince and Uncle Ping are here!

When Li Fusheng heard this, embarrassment flashed on his face again.

It's not that he holds grudges against anyone, but that the war has been anxious and has not improved. He is really embarrassed to see Tian Wujing. As for Zheng Fan, he also came. Looking at other people's record, it is really incomparable. I always feel that I will Look stupid!

You know, the last time in his own tent, when King Jingnan told himself that Zheng Fan was fine, he was still very unconvinced.

I rubbed my face vigorously with both hands,

Li Fusheng told a guard beside him:

Order all the generals to command the army to discuss.

Also, go, didn't I tell you to find a new cowhide boots last time, bring them here.

Yes, General.

Regardless of the exhaustion of the day's siege, the generals rushed to the commander-in-chief military meeting.

Everyone's complexion is a little dignified.

When the siege didn't improve much at the beginning, Li Fusheng was quite normal.

After the Dongshan Fort over there was destroyed, Li Fusheng would scold everyone with a sullen face every day after the military meeting.

For this, everyone is used to it, after all, it is not the first day to fight under the command of their own general.

Some military chiefs under their subordinates saw that these sons-in-law were still being scolded, so they didn't think there was anything wrong, and they were scolded together anyway.

But this time I heard that King Jingnan came again, and he brought Uncle Hirano with him.

Not only Li Fusheng, the main general, felt ashamed, but the generals below also felt heavy pressure.

All the ministries in one army will compete secretly, let alone those under the command of one army and those under the command of another army.

Most importantly, what kind of soldiers does Uncle Hirano have?

They are barbarians, Jin people, and it is said that there are also savage slaves.

What kind of soldiers are they?

They are the direct descendants of the Zhenbei Army who followed Li Fusheng from the desert to the capital of Guoqian country and then to Jin country!

The barbarians are their defeated generals, and the state of Jin was defeated by them. Barbarians, what the hell is that!

But that's it, Uncle Ren Hirano just won Dongshan Fort so simply, and on his own side, he hasn't seen much improvement so far, can he not be depressed?

In handsome tent,

Tian Wujing sat on the handsome seat that belonged to Li Fusheng.

Uncle Zheng stood aside,

It feels like it's just a whisk away.

After the generals came in, they all saluted King Jingnan first, and then saluted Uncle Zheng, and then separated into two columns.

at last,

Li Fusheng came in, and there was movement outside.

In the army, especially in the commander's tent, noise is the most taboo.

King Jingnan opened his mouth and said;

What's going on outside?

Li Fusheng replied: Returning to the lord, this is not the last time the general made a bet with the lord. If Uncle Hirano can take down Dongshan Castle in just a few days, then we will cook the boots and eat them. Right now, the pot is boiling outside. .”

King Jingnan shook his head and ignored it.

The corner of Zheng Fan's mouth moved slightly, and it was inconvenient for him to say anything.

To put it bluntly, it was just a joke, King Jingnan would not take it seriously, let alone ask Li Fusheng to honor it in front of everyone.

After all, no matter how much Tian Wujing favors Zheng Fan, he won't act like this.

But Li Fusheng proposed it on his own initiative, and his purpose was very clear, to make Zheng Fan famous, and he was willing to use himself as a raft.

Shame is shame,

But for a long time, Li Fusheng has always regarded Zheng Fan as his junior.

He was the oldest among the seven generals of the former Zhenbeihou Mansion. Although he would often go crazy on the battlefield and like to take the lead in fighting, but in other respects, he actually lived a very transparent life.

If he took the initiative to mention it today, this matter will definitely spread again and become a wonderful news belonging to Uncle Hirano.

Fortunately, it will take some time to cook the boots. Next, under the auspices of Tian Wujing, the military discussion began, and what was discussed was nothing more than the gains and losses of the siege these days.

Everyone talked a lot, but Uncle Zheng was listening all the time and didn't express his opinion.

even,

My mind began to return to the previous booklet in Wang's tent.

The blind man once analyzed the position of King Jingnan with himself. Obviously, King Jingnan has become indifferent to the concept of home, or he has given up on his own initiative. Therefore, what supports his belief is the concept of nationality. .

What is the foundation of Dayan's country is the people of Yan.

As the relationship between himself and King Jingnan keeps getting closer, Uncle Zheng hasn't felt accompanied by a king like a tiger for a long time, but this doesn't mean that Uncle Zheng has let down his vigilance.

That scripture, including King Jingnan's questioning, actually included consideration of Zheng Fan's own political stance.

After all, there are still too few real Yan people under Zheng Fan's command. If it is true that the saying There is no distinction between education...

From the perspective of political correctness, all living beings must be equal.

Tian Wujing will not simply say that because he is a Yan people, he should prefer Yan people, but from his point of view, only by adhering to the Yan people-based program can the territory he conquered in the Southern and Northern Wars be restored. , The empire that was developed has continued.

This is a political stance. Uncle Zheng has no choice but to follow King Jingnan.

While wandering,

suddenly,

Uncle Zheng saw King Jingnan looking at him,

how do you feel?

I was so engrossed in my desertion just now, Uncle Zheng completely forgot what they were talking about earlier, and just said:

The prince said so.

As soon as this remark came out, the faces of many generals in the commander's tent suddenly changed, and some of them even showed a very clear look of indignation.

Uncle Zheng suddenly felt something was wrong.

Tian Wujing nodded and said:

Well, you also agree with what the king said, they are indeed useless.

... Uncle Zheng.

But that's not the most embarrassing thing,

The most embarrassing thing is,

Subsequently,

Tian Wujing pointed to Li Fusheng below,

road:

Well, let Hirano Bo come and command for you for two days.

!!! Zheng Fan.
