Wu Han sat in the military tent with an angry look on his face.He has an ordinary face and speaks softly and calmly, but he has held military power in the army for more than a year, and there is also an unnamed military might on his body.

The army had just suffered a defeat, and it was the time when the momentum was sluggish.All their food, grass, and supplies were taken away by the enemy, and they were at the end of their rope at this time.

"The news has been sent back." Wu Han was not the only one in the tent, but also the general and several staff members. "How do you think His Majesty will deal with it?"

"At present, Deng Feng's rebellion comes first, and the suppression of Nanyang chaos comes later. Both of these are important matters. Presumably, His Majesty will definitely let Da Sikong make atonement, and will not change the commander before the battle." Right General Wan Xiu clasped his fists Said.Wu Han also had this guess in his heart, but when others said it, the feeling of peace of mind was a little more.

Deng Feng was caught off guard by this matter.

Wu Han also knew that he was a bit cruel in his actions, and it was not normal to indulge his subordinates to rob the villagers.But it is necessary for Deng Feng to go to this point, and even directly gather the villagers to fight against His Majesty?

He was anxious and angry in his heart, but he also felt a little guilty.

Before His Majesty's decree was issued, no one could tell clearly what Liu Xiu was thinking?

Wu Han is not so arrogant that he thinks he is not at fault at all.

The staff said in a deep voice: "General You is right, but the cause of this matter still falls on Da Sima, and Da Sima must not show any resentment." The only way to advance is to retreat. It would be the worst policy to shift all the responsibility to Deng Feng.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Deng Feng was clearly angry.He was directly rebelled by the actions of Wu Han and others. If His Majesty really wants to blame him, Wu Han will not be able to get rid of this crime.

They have been wrestling with Deng Feng for nearly a month.

Deng Feng was very difficult to deal with, and gradually defeated the various ministries of the previous Han army in Nanyang County.

Qin Feng of Nanjun immediately led his army to the north, and formed a pincer attack with Deng Feng, putting the Han army in danger.

Qin Feng established himself as the King of Chuli in the second year of Gengshi, and he had tens of thousands of soldiers under him. With Liu Xiu's gradual development, he thought that Liu Xiu had already threatened his safety, so when he found out that he could beat a dog in the water, He swung his army northward without hesitation.

Wu Han clenched his fists, quite angry.

"Report-"

There were footsteps outside the tent door, and then the tent was lifted.

"Da Sima, Da Sikong led Jia Fu, Geng Yan, Zhu You and other generals to arrive, and they are already outside the barracks—"

Wu Han got up suddenly, his face changed slightly: "Cai Xuning?"

This is a candidate that he never thought of after much thought, and at the next moment, he smiled wryly and shook his head: "How could I have forgotten that Deng Feng, like me, was first introduced to His Majesty through Da Sikong."

At the beginning, Wu Han was able to meet Liu Xiu so smoothly, it cannot be said that Cai Xuning did not have the slightest credit for it.

When Deng Feng was resisting in the city, he didn't know where Cai Xuning dug out his in-law relationship with Liu Xiu, and sent someone to move him to make sense of it with affection, and he dug him here without much hesitation.

Wu Han: "..."

What's the matter with getting worse? !

...

When Cai Xuning was welcomed in, his face was indifferent, and there was no expression on his face.

Wu Han was originally a little guilty, seeing this situation, he couldn't help but glance at Geng Yan who was standing behind him.He has a good relationship with Geng Yan.

Geng Yan met his gaze and just shook his head slightly.

Wu Han's heart sank.

Cai Xuning said softly, "What? Is Da Sima not welcoming me?"

Wu Han opened his mouth, walked towards them, forced a smile and said, "Don't you dare, Da Sikong, please come in quickly."

A group of people entered the tent, they were supposed to take their seats, but Cai Xuning shook his head, skipped the formalities, and said directly: "We have come all the way, and we don't know much about the situation in Nanyang, how is the situation now?"

Wu Han was a little embarrassed, but he still told the details soon.

Cai Xuning nodded calmly, but it was not far from what they had guessed before they came.He turned his head and said to the generals who had just followed him in, "I still have something to talk to Da Sima, you guys go and settle down first."

"Yes."

His words were clearly only aimed at the people he had brought, and he did not instruct Wu Han's two lieutenants, but Wan Xiu and the others looked at the scene before them, and retreated together knowingly.

Cai Xuning only looked at Wu Han when the big tent became quiet.

Wu Han sighed.

"It's my fault."

Cai Xuning said lightly: "When I learned about this, I was very angry."

Although his tone was calm, it could not be ignored.

"Deng Feng, I know a little about his temperament. Wu Han, I don't know how capable you are. You can go to the point of forcing him...Wu Han, you have a good idea."

Wu Han was silent.

"... If a method is useful, even though there may be a slight deviation in the process, or cross the limit, as long as it ends up being a good ending, it can be lifted high and put down gently. As long as you find a way to eliminate those negative effects, it will be a problem. Good thing, I know what you think, and it's not impossible." Cai Xuning carelessly stroked the sword, the rough touch made his fingers a little dull, "Your Majesty agrees with you."

The last sentence made Wu Han raise his head suddenly.

[ID Time Machine: Ahhhhhhh why did Axu say that? ]

[ID Xiaoyao: I think Liu Xiu is ready to take this matter as his idea. This is to avoid conflicts between the anchor and Wu Han. ]

[ID Young Master Yang: Isn’t the anchor Liu Xiu’s thoughts in vain when he comes here?]

[ID Jiuqianque: This transfer order has been rewritten, don't you just want to admit it in the open? ]

[ID makes money to buy a big house: Is this still a question?Liu Xiusheng was afraid that the anchor would be hated, so isn't the anchor also afraid of Liu Xiu being hated? ]

[ID Dudu: Caosheng, is this an infinite matryoshka?Then obviously Liu Xiu failed. ]

[ID6666: The anchor successfully completed the lore]

Cai Xuning said quietly: "It's just that I stopped you."

Wu Han's expression changed slightly.

Cai Xuning said slowly: "In this battle, you have made great contributions, so you will naturally be rewarded; but where you should be punished, you must also be punished. The merits and demerits cannot be offset. Immediately, you will be cut off from the position of chief minister, and you will stay here for a while." The position of Marquis of Guangping, the power in the army is temporarily handed over to Cen Peng, General of Zhengnan, and you follow the army as the right general, do you have any objections?"

What he said just now was clearly telling Wu Han that the final decision on this matter was Cai Xuning's insistence.

People are prone to resentment.

Wu Han saluted reluctantly: "The humble post accepts orders."

He had to do this, Cai Xuning just dictated just now, but it must be Liu Xiu's order.

Seeing that Wu Han had suffered, Cai Xuning didn't say anything else.

He was about to go out, but shook his head with a light smile: "Wu Han, you know how Uncle Wen treats you, you know in your heart. How much trouble this matter has caused, if I handle it, it will only make it worse. The position of Marquis of Guangping is also the importance that Uncle Wen attaches to you. Don't follow in Deng Feng's footsteps..."

At the end of the speech, Cai Xuning's voice revealed a little joy: "Don't make things difficult for him."

Wu Han looked at Cai Xuning smiling at Yan Yan, but holding on to his sword, and remembered the incident that made Cai Xuning famous in the first battle.

That sword was really sharp and sharp.

Cai Xuning's temperament is peaceful and kind, so when he heard that he was leading the troops, Wu Han already had a vague suspicion in his mind.

But even Cai Xuning has a backlash.Your Majesty is his reverse scale.

He was furious in public a few times, all because of Liu Xiu.

How could Wu Han not feel the murderous intent revealed by Cai Xuning's seemingly peaceful tone.

Every word is a warning.

【Studio】

[ID Mu Zexi: Uh, isn't the anchor afraid of forcing him against him?After all, this man was at the same level of official position as him before, and he was cut off by others all at once. Isn't that why he is not happy? ]

[ID Lulu: Didn't he do it himself when he was cut from office? ]

[ID You: If he hadn't made a mistake first, how could he have come to this point, and it wasn't that the host deliberately targeted him. ]

[ID Eleven: Can the butt be tilted back?Follow me, this is the live broadcast room of the anchor Xiao Xuzi. ]

[ID has the universe in mind: Wu Han should not rebel, this person is too smart]

[ID is helpless: Wu Han will not turn back. He was able to run up and down in Hebei at the beginning because he took a fancy to Liu Xiu's potential. Now that Liu Xiu has risen, and he himself is indeed somewhat at fault, plus The anchor is in front of him to attract firepower crazily, he has no determination to fight back]

[ID Daxiang: Hey, it’s Mr. Hua, I feel like I haven’t seen this ID for a long time. ]

So did Cai Xuning.

He squeezed the space between his brows, ignored Wu Han's silence, and saw that he had finished what he needed to say, so he turned around and planned to leave.

"Is Da Sikong sure that he can persuade Deng Feng to come back?"

Wu Han seemed to have guessed Cai Xuning's thoughts and said in a low voice.

Cai Xuning stopped moving: "Deng Feng has now controlled most of Nanyang County, if we can persuade him to come back, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

Wu Han shook his head and said: "Deng Feng is a bit of a broken pot. If not for this, he would not have cooperated with the remnants of Gengshi after defeating us. It would not be that simple to get him back."

"Knowing that this matter is not easy, then it seems that you are quite aware of the disaster you have caused." Cai Xuning glanced at him indifferently, "I will not accept the order of the emperor outside, but some things have been given authority, but Not that useful.

"If you strictly ordered the soldiers below from the beginning, wouldn't you eliminate all the sources of this disaster?"

"Deng Feng betrayed once, even if he comes back, His Majesty may not trust him. In addition, there must be many colleagues who are dissatisfied with him... He may not have a foothold when he comes back. Deng Feng must be in his heart It is also clear, so we will go to the end." Wu Han was stabbed by Cai Xuning's words, but he could only accept it with a wry smile.

"Deng Feng will not look back, but he may not be willing to accept the negotiation. Just a few days ago, he had contact with Qin Feng."

Cai Xuning frowned, and first said casually: "Is it possible that I can't keep the person I want to protect?"

Wu Han choked.

This……

If Cai Xuning really wanted to intervene, then it's unknown how.

Even if Deng Feng didn't want to live, if Cai Xuning didn't allow him to die, no one could change his mind except Liu Xiu.And Your Majesty... Wu Han could only smile wryly when he thought of this matter.

His Majesty's trust in Cai Xuning has reached such a level that even if it is a major event, it is easy to persuade His Majesty to change his mind.

There was some haze in Wu Han's heart, Cai Xuning had too much influence on His Majesty.

It's just that Cai Xuning acted cautiously in the past, and rarely stood out. On the contrary, many people ignored this low-key one of the three men.What's more, because he often accompanied His Majesty, he only led troops in a few battles, and lost their chance to become famous like this.

But being low-key...doesn't tell the whole story.

Wu Han's breathing was subtly rapid for a moment.

Yes.

Back at Xinbo, it was Cai Xuning's understatement that made Wu Han and Liu Xiu hook up.As early as that time, he already had such sufficient influence... Speaking of which, where is Cai Xuning's ancestral home?

It seems that no one has ever heard of it.

Cai Xuning patted Wu Han on the forehead.

"What are you stunned for?"

He was still angry in his heart, and naturally he did not strike lightly, slapping him staggeringly.

Cai Xuning and Wu Han originally had a good relationship.If it wasn't for this incident, he wouldn't have confronted Wu Han directly.

"I don't need to worry about these things. I have received a reply from Deng Feng, and he is willing to meet with me." He calmly dropped this sentence, then walked out pulling Wu Han's collar, his tone gradually He became gloomy, "No, my anger tells me that I'm still very angry now, let me end—"

Wu Han:? !

Is there anyone more pitiful than him?

He was just cut off from his official position, criticized, ridiculed, ridiculed, and he has to fight again after it's over? ?

He knew Cai Xuning's strength, although it was not as strong as the strangely powerful attendant who often followed behind him, it was still great.When he first came out in Youzhou, he fought life and death for a day and a night, dragging down countless soldiers, and the army couldn't help admiring him.

In this regard, Cai Xuning can be called a monster!

Wu Han didn't even care about the depression in his heart: "Can't you save some face for me?"

It's not that he wants to boost other people's ambitions and destroy his own prestige, but as long as he thinks of the great achievements of the former Da Sikong, this person can't help being half a point shorter.

Cai Xuning smiled ferociously: "No."

...

The news of Wu Han's relegation shocked the army somewhat.

But before that, it was the contest between Da Sikong Cai Xuning and Wu Han that made people excited.

In the fight in the martial arts arena, Wu Han and Cai Xuning were evenly matched, but in the end, Wu Han's energy really couldn't survive Cai Xuning, and he was beaten to the ground.

Hearing the uncontrollable wailing at that moment, he knew that Cai Xuning had killed him.

Cai Xuning hadn't done anything for a long time, and after coming here for a while, he suddenly felt a little better.The depression that had been all the way before finally dissipated a lot.

He dragged Wu Han up and was about to carry him out when he heard a familiar voice.

Geng Yan jumped out and pointed at himself: "Da Sikong, I haven't fought you yet, come on, come on, today just happens to be a good time—"

Cai Xuning raised his eyebrows: "Yes."

If there is one, there are two, Geng Yan was happily thrown out of the court by Cai Xuning.

Geng Yan:?

Gan!

Why are you still so energetic?

He originally thought that after Da Sikong and Wu Han finished fighting, this person would be somewhat weak, but he didn't expect that he hadn't weakened at all.

After Geng Yan, there were not a few generals and soldiers who saw itchy hands, and Cai Xuning also seemed to be excited, and he would not refuse anyone who came.

After going back and forth, the place was tightly surrounded, and people were watching the excitement inside and out.The originally dull atmosphere in the barracks unknowingly became lively.

Wu Han and Geng Yan, who had already left the stage, sat together to drink water to rest, and Geng Yan poked Wu Han: "Are you still depressed?"

Wu Han didn't speak.

Geng Yan said to himself: "Don't be angry, Your Majesty still has your heart in mind."

While talking, he looked at Cai Xuning, and couldn't help laughing: "If I hadn't been dragged off the stage just now, they wouldn't have seen Da Sikong like this. Heh..." Cai Xuning doesn't like to show off, even if he is ordinary Invitation, but rarely agreed, this is the first time.

"Do you think it was an accident?" Wu Han said quietly.

He was certain in his heart that Cai Xuning did it on purpose.

Whether it was the fight with him, or the acceptance of other people's invitations, and the mobilized atmosphere in the barracks.

This move, compared to Cai Xuning, can be said to kill three birds with one stone
