Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Shi Congyun also felt that Li Yun was too domineering, and thought that the revenge he promised to help others three years ago seemed to be Li Yun's subordinate, called Li Guan's command.

Quietly looked up and found that the official's face was very ugly, but in the end he didn't say anything, just nodded, "Let him go..."

Li Gu didn't speak in embarrassment, the atmosphere in the big tent was not good.

This is not a decent thing, Li Yun's actions are close to shitting on the official's head, but Dazhou needs him to defend against the Northern Han and Khitan, Huainan is still fighting, so there is no way, the official can only endure it.

Standing by the side, Shi Congyun didn't dare to show his anger. For the first time, he felt that Guo Rong, the emperor, was actually very difficult. He was not as beautiful as he thought, and he had to endure many things.In comparison, the Fu family of the Tianxiong Army and the Zhe family of the Jingnan Army are much more peaceful, at least not making trouble.

This was the first time he had heard of such a high-level secret event, and he was inevitably a little overwhelmed.

After a while, the official looked at him and said: "You are also the commander of the deputy capital in front of the palace, you have to know about the important affairs of the court and share them for me, there is nothing to shy away from.

But you are frivolous, so be careful, don't say everything, it is inconvenient for us to spread the words between our monarchs and ministers, and to say it bluntly... will hurt our dignity, do you understand! "

Shi Congyun was horrified, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee, "I understand the importance, please put your heart at ease!" Guo Rong's words have reached this point, and Shi Congyun of course understands what he means.

The official nodded, "Take a break from the exhaustion of your boat and car, I have already sent people to summon the generals of the army, and I will explain something later.

Come, give me a seat. "

The eunuch next to him brought out a yellow rosewood chair and put it behind him.

Li Gu was standing next to him talking to the officials, and Wang Pu was also standing beside him in a state of depression, interjecting a few words from time to time.

Shi Congyun vaguely heard that it seemed that Wang Pu said that Zhang Yongde had written a letter to Li Chongjin to rebel against him!

He also said that Li Chongjin distributed all the property seized in the prosperous Tang Dynasty to his soldiers. His soldiers supported him very much and obviously objected;

Shi Congyun listened carefully, thinking that this Yongde is silly and sweet, right?

He also vaguely heard that this personal conquest by the royal family was also Li Gu's suggestion in a letter.

Li Gu believes that the battle in Huainan has been fought for more than a year, and it cannot be delayed, otherwise it will be useless for a long time and consume a lot of money. He hopes that the officials will go to the front line to encourage the soldiers and end the battle with one effort......

Listening to their conversation, Shi Congyun felt that he had never heard of such high-level matters before, and he was not qualified to hear them, so he pricked up his ears and memorized them.

I wanted to sit down, but felt inappropriate.Tiredness is true, it's no wonder that you are not tired after traveling a long distance wearing heavy armor, but the official family and the two husbands are still standing.

So he said a few words to the eunuch next to him, and went to move the chairs that were placed in the corner of the tent next to him one by one.

He smiled and said, "Officials, Li Xiang, Wang Xiang, a certain chair has been moved for you, it is tiring to stand and talk, please take a seat."

His actions stunned the few people who spoke, and then they couldn't help laughing.

Li Gu smiled directly: "You are interesting, you are too embarrassed to drag us into the water even if you sit down."

The official smiled, "I'm tired of standing too, so let's sit and talk."

So several people sat down, and Shi Congyun sat down as he wished.

Afterwards, all the generals came to enter the big tent one after another, and they all just stood, but the few who sat on top seemed to be particularly eye-catching.

Needless to say, the officials and the two prime ministers, but Shi Congyun was also sitting there, and everyone's eyes drifted away, and there were more guesses in their hearts...

There were many people who came. The guards and horse infantry commanded Li Chongjin, the front of the hall commanded Zhang Yongde, the left wing of the crane controlled by Wang Shenqi, the left wing of the cavalry commanded Gao Huaide, and the right wing of Hu Jie commanded Zhao Chao and Yu Lang. Si Chao, the commander of the direct deputy capital, and Pan Mei, the deputy envoy of Xishanggemen, Yu Lang, the direct supervisor of the army.

These are high-ranking officials standing in the first row.

After that, there were dozens of generals standing in the second row and the third row.

Including Yu Hou Shaoji, the capital of the left side of the control crane, Shao Ji, the commander of the left side of the control crane army, Wang Zhong, the commander of the first army, Dong Zunhui, the commander of the second army, Luo Yanhuan, the commander of the third army, and the commander of the first army. Shen Zhiyi, the commander of the five armies, Shi Shouxin, the commander of the first cavalry army, Li Chuyun, the Marquis of Yulangzhi, Wang Huan, the commander of the first army of Yulangzhi, etc...

Immediately, the entire large tent became a bit crowded, full of anxious people, and men in iron armor everywhere.

Faced with such a scene, Shi Congyun couldn't sit still and stood up from the chair.

When everyone was present, the official stood up, looked at Shi Congyun, who was a bit embarrassed, and said to him: "You are a guest, and everyone is standing, it is honorable enough."

"Don't dare, the most honorable people in the world are the officials." Shi Congyun replied quickly, and began to speculate on the meaning of the officials.

The officials looked around at the many generals standing in the big tent, slowly paced left and right in front of them, and spoke slowly, the voice echoed in the big tent.

"The puppet Tang rebels have already arrived at Zijin Mountain. Their Qi Wang Li Jingda led an army of more than [-] troops and stationed in Haozhou. They are approaching Xiacai and Shouzhou from the north and south banks of the Huaihe River. There will be many naval troops in the lower reaches of the Huaihe River.

You must all know these things, and you are unable to solve them, otherwise I will not come to Huainan again. "

"The ministers are incompetent, let the officials have to work hard!" Li Chongjin took the lead in handing over, and everyone echoed. Guo Rong's words were very peaceful, but the meaning of the blame was already obvious.

Guo Rong waved his hand, "I didn't come here to settle accounts with you Qiu Hou, but if the fight is not good, no one can escape the responsibility."

All the generals suddenly became tense.

After saying that, the official looked at Shi Congyun who was standing in the front, there was something else in his eyes, he paused for a while and said:

"Shi Congyun, the high position just now is not for nothing. If you take the high position, all the generals are a head shorter than you. How about you commanding them now?"

Shi Congyun's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, he didn't expect the official to say it so suddenly, he hastily bowed his hands.

The officials seemed very satisfied with his surprised reaction, "Although you are the youngest among the crowd, you have never disappointed me in Gaoping, Guanzhong, and Huainan.

This time, you can't let me down!

I will add you to recruit for the Huainan camp, and the general restraint of the troops near Cai and Shouzhou will fight for life and death with the Southern Tang army. Do you dare! "

The voice of the official is not high, but the words are especially loud in the closed tent.

Shi Congyun really felt that many hot eyes from the left and right were focused on him, and the heat made his heart beat wildly!

The blood all over his body seemed to be boiling in an instant, flowing rapidly, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Even though he had been mentally prepared, when the officials said that Huainan camp would be recruited, he still had a storm in his heart.

He has led troops to fight for more than three years, but he has never had such an opportunity.

The word "du recruit" is similar to the "generalissimo" understood by later generations.

For example, during the conquest of Shu, Wang Jing's camp in the southwest was recruited, which can be understood as the "Generalissimo of the Southwest", and all the troops and generals who conquered Shu were dispatched by Wang Jing.

No matter how wonderful and powerful Shi Congyun played, he was only Wang Jing's general, and the greatest contribution was still the commander Wang Jing's.

But now, the meaning of the official recruiting him is to allow him to dispatch all the troops near Cai and Shouzhou to fight a strategic decisive battle with Southern Tang!

This can almost determine the overall outcome of the Battle of Huainan!

For a moment, a trace of fear and hesitation flashed through Shi Congyun's heart. If he failed in his judgment and made a mistake in command, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and logistics personnel would pay a heavy price, and the national fortune of the Great Zhou Dynasty would also be severely damaged.

But it was only for a moment. He took a deep breath and then knelt down on one knee, suppressing the fear and anxiety in his heart, and let the excited and generous part show: "The officials are invited to cross the river and retreat to Huaibei to watch the battle. I am willing to do my best to serve the officials. Break the enemy!"

"Okay!" The official stepped forward to help him up.

This is the first time he is so close to Guo Rong, my value and ability are here!Shi Congyun thought, all officials are willing to bow down for me.

He got up slowly, and looked back at the dozens of generals with different expressions behind him, all of whom would be under his command.

The official said: "Zhang Yongde led the cavalry to participate in the battle, and I have my own guards from the east and west."

Zhang Yongde took the order, and then took a quick step forward: "You have won so many battles, and I must obey your ability. Shi Zhaochao just give the order."

Then Li Chongjin, who had the highest official position and status, stood up and gave him a cold look: "We have a festival, but you have the ability to admit it, don't worry, in this area of ​​Huainan, a certain Hu Jiejun is waiting to be recruited and dispatched!" After finishing speaking He arched his hands.

Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin were the only two warriors present who were higher in rank than Shi Congyun. They expressed their opinions, and the rest of them also stood up one after another.

Gao Huaide laughed loudly and took a step forward: "Shi Zhaochao, since the government ordered it, a certain elite cavalry soldier can dispatch it."

Wang Shenqi was very calm: "The officers and men in the left wing of the crane are waiting for recruitment and dispatch."

Si Chao also stepped forward: "Yu Lang is on the alert, and you can order the recruitment at any time."

Seeing that the generals were so obedient and willing to obey the command, Guo Rong seemed relieved, nodded and said: "I will cross the river tomorrow and wait for your good news on the north bank of the Huaihe River."

Immediately, the topic changed, and the voice cooled down, "If there is no good news, you don't have to cross the river to see me."

"Please rest assured, the officials!" Shi Congyun's heart trembled, and he cupped his hands.

Li Gu and Wang Pu looked at him with different expressions, Wang Pu was surprised, but Li Gu had a deep meaning.

Chapter 146: Map of Ze Country Entering the Battle ([-])

At the head of the Xiacai Floating Bridge, the wooden piles in the distance stir up waves, and the spring breeze is getting stronger and stronger. Looking at the Zijin Mountain in the distance, the mountain is full of new greenery, and there are faint pavilions and temples in the middle. From time to time, you can see some pink, yellow birds and white birds. Fly, the peach blossoms in the mountain temple begin to bloom.

However, the many flags that can be seen faintly in the north of the mountain are particularly dazzling. The Tang army has already settled down on the mountain and firmly occupied it.

Shi Congyun, dressed in military uniform, sent the official family back north at the bridgehead.

There was going to be a war, and the officials appointed him as the commander-in-chief. It would not be safe to stay here any longer. Before leaving, the officials stood side by side with him at the bridgehead, watching the many peasants on the north bank busy loading food into the carts.

"Officials, please ask Si Chao to lead Yu Langzhi temporarily." Shi Congyun was half a step behind Guo Rong. It was the first time he spoke to Guo Rong so closely and on an equal footing.

The official asked back: "Si Chao is really capable, why I don't seem to have heard about him."

Because Si Chao was born as a farmer, he has no family background, no one talks to him...

But in this case, he will not say it in front of Guo Rong, and he will do it in his own mind, "Probably his achievements are all in the north. In the early years, Si Chao defended the coast of the Bohai Sea. It was also his suggestion that the minister was able to outwit the prosperous Tang Dynasty. I think he Reliable.

However, these ministers just mentioned it, and in the end they still want the official Sacred Heart to be dictatorial. "

"Then let Si Chao lead Yu Langzhi temporarily." The official agreed, walking forward while talking.

"Shi Congyun, in the past you always gave me the impression that I was frivolous and not prudent. You must know the importance of this battle. I have placed a lot of hopes on you. The middle age of the country is on your shoulders."

Shi Congyun saluted: "I always keep in mind what the officials say."

Accompanying Guo Rong to the middle of the pontoon bridge, the official said: "I have read your "Theory of Guarding the River and the Huaihe River", which is very exciting and hits the point. I think you understand the importance of Huainan better than anyone else. Don't let me down.

Let's go back......"

Shi Congyun saluted respectfully, then retreated to the other side of the Huaihe River.

Guo Rong watched the young man go away in the waves, the sound of rushing water covered up the sound of the wind, his expression was a bit complicated.

Wang Pu came up and said: "Officials, let's cross the river quickly. The wind on the bridge is strong and there is water vapor, so it is easy to catch cold."

Guo Rong nodded, and then crossed the river with Wang Pu and others to Huaibei.

He has always been a confident person, but this time he was really in a hurry. He didn't expect the situation in Huainan to become like this.

He originally thought that with Li Chongjin, Zhao Kuangyin, and Xiang Xun around, even without Shi Congyun, it would have little impact, so he let Shi Congyun return to Daliang to train the navy under his nose.

It would have been nice if Shi Congyun hadn't been sent back in the first place!

Thinking about it now, compared with the situation in Huainan, the little grudge in his heart is nothing. Maybe he still has a gap with those capable monarchs in ancient times, and his heart is not open enough.

If you want to pretend to be the world, you can't always be entangled in those trivial things, just like Zhao Chao accepts bribes and plunders the people, he just turns a blind eye, because Zhao Chao can fight, and Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Kuangyin are clan relatives.

Li Yun's deeds in Luzhou were even worse. He almost ignored him. He could still bear it, because Li Yun could also fight and resist the Northern Han and Khitan!

As for Shi Congyun, he didn't think about how to punish him severely from the beginning.

For his frivolity and covetousness, at the beginning, he just wanted to punish him in a small way, let him be vigilant, young people inevitably need to be polished.

At that time, he also acted generously and skillfully.

But he never expected that after Shi Congyun was transferred back to the capital, there would be such a big trouble, which would cause many headaches later.

Knowing this earlier, he would rather let Shi Congyun continue to lead the army in Huainan.He is greedy for money and lustful, and if he is frivolous, let him go. As long as Huainan is captured, there will be plenty of women and money, and the problem of restlessness can be pruned slowly after Huainan is finished.

In the end, the one who can fight this battle now is Shi Congyun who defeated the Shu army and won the Zhengyang victory.

Although he is young and frivolous, fighting can make him feel at ease, and he has won many beautiful battles; in terms of the overall situation, he has written a book like "Guarding the River and Huaihe", which won the praise of Wei Renpu, Wang Pu and others. , and now he also looks at it from time to time.

There are many places mentioned in it that he had never thought of before. Shi Congyun made a clear conclusion in it. Once the Southern Tang Dynasty lost Huainan and retreated to the Yangtze River, what awaited them would be slow death.

The words were so penetrating that even he felt a sudden realization.This is also an important reason why he decided to put Shi Congyun in charge.

Among the generals in Huainan, Li Chongjin and Zhao Kuangyin were able to fight and had the qualifications and skills to be in command, but none of them had the foresight of Shi Congyun.

Sometimes even he would think about how such a young person's brain grows, he is full of flaws, his ability and insight are amazing, he seems like a heavenly man.

Most importantly, a daughter is easy to get, but a general is hard to find!For an emperor, such a person is very important.

Maybe Shi Congyun is really a champion, not just talking about it.

It's just that this battle is still not so easy to fight, I don't know how he will act this time, I hope he can live up to everyone's expectations...

.......

When Shi Congyun returned to the bridge, Luqiu Zhongqing was still waiting there wearing a bamboo hat. He is from Shandong and has lived in Shanxi all year round. He is not used to the warm and humid climate in the south and cannot stand the sun.

Shi Congyun walked side by side to the camp, and told him the scene of meeting the official on the bridge just now.

Luqiu Zhongqing whispered: "The officials may be afraid."

Shi Congyun nodded, "I've also noticed that everyone will be nervous and afraid. This battle depends on the fate of the two countries. Whether the ambition of the officials can last depends on this battle.
