, The general is so fierce

Six days after Liu Jun shot and killed the defenders under Datong City, Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou officially held a military discussion to announce the borrowing of troops.

The military discussion was only qualified to participate in the military discussions by generals and officers of the commander-in-chief, Xuanfu envoy, and Transport Envoy. Although Zhu Zhi and Shi Zhen had low ranks, they were the only two representatives in Yingzhou who had officials at that time, and were also able to participate in the military discussions.

"What? You want to borrow soldiers from Chihu? This is ridiculous!"

Even though Zhu Zhi had some tempers in the matter of great harmony, the superior and impetuous nature of the aristocratic family members could not be completely restrained easily. He sat in the hall and just heard Liu Shizhong telling about finding the Chihu people to borrow troops, he stood up impulsively and questioned.

"Some people in the court are talking about Liu Linggong being afraid of the enemy and fighting. The officials did not agree and ordered the censors to be cautious. However, at this time, Dayue gathered 100,000 elite soldiers and generals in Yingzhou, while the Khitan had less than 30,000 remaining soldiers in Datong City, and they were still like dogs of a family. Why was Liu Linggong so timid that he wanted to borrow troops from Chihu people?"

Liu Shizhong expected that there would be criticism for borrowing troops, but he did not expect that Zhu Zhi would jump out and scold him for fear of the enemy. This was his heart disease, and he was also furious. He slapped the table and shouted loudly: "I have been fighting for half my life, and my swords and arrows on my body have been injured by more than a hundred times. How can you slander me? You are a kid with breasts, how could you argue about the dangers of using troops? "

“…”

Liu Shizhong was still very powerful when he fought for half his life. Zhu Zhi called him to glar, and his momentum was much more exaggerated, but he was also stubborn. In front of so many people who didn't want to give in easily, he asked with his neck,

"I won't mention whether I'm afraid to fight or not. But Liu Linggong and Cai Xiaogong, have you ever thought that the soldiers of the Chihu people are not easy to borrow from each other. What should they do if they don't have good intentions? Xu Huai, tell me, are we going to be careful of the Chihu people being embarrassed?"

Zhu Zhi had no confidence in front of Liu Shizhong, Cai Yuanyou and others. He asked Liu Shizhong to stare at Xu Huai with guilt, hoping that he could stand up and say a few words.

Xu Huai had long expected that Xiao would win the army and Xuanwu's army would not escape defeat, but he still did not expect that Cai Yuanyou would have such a slutty operation.

While disappointed, he was naturally completely disheartened and did not want to argue with Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou.

Besides, can he win by quarrel?

In order to ensure that the northern expedition to Yan, Xiaosheng, and Xuanwu were all transferred to Hedong. Xiaosheng and Xuanwu were the two armies of the two armies, and there were nearly 30 senior generals above the command level. As the main army of Hedong Road, Tianxiong Army did not participate directly in the war this time. Cao Shixiong, Cao Shili and Meng Ping also asked not to come to Yingzhou, but in addition to Xu Huai, Wen Hengyue and Yin Chao were thinking of changing their wings and intending to join the Cai faction. This time, he also brought people to Yingzhou to meet Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou.

In addition, tens of thousands of soldiers were recruited from Hedong prefectures, and the township soldiers were recruited and were responsible for transferring grain, fodder, and armed forces, paving and digging roads and trenches. A dozen responsible generals and officials were also able to participate in the military convention.

In the huge hall, Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou sat in the middle against the north wall, with three rows of seats on each side, and Xu Huai, Zhu Zhi and Shi Zhen were arranged on the seats near the gate.

Xu Huai pulled Zhuzhi's sleeve and said:

"Zhu Zhi, sit down first. You speak so hard that Liu Linggong was so angry that he was so angry that he could not help but feel like he was not aware of his life.

Yes, have you taken this huge responsibility? Besides, don’t say that you and I are all kids. Liu Yan, Chen Yuan, Qu Jing and other military marquis are here, who is qualified to discuss military and national affairs?"

Zhu Zhi asked Xu Huai to hold him back to the seat. His momentum was weak, but he still complained in a low voice: "Isn't it a matter of borrowing troops from Chihu people? "

"Xu Jun's words seemed to be accusing Liu Linggong. The young prime minister was a stubborn person?" Tian Zhizhen heard Xu Huai pull Zhu Zhi back to his seat, but he held a gun and a stick in his words, staring at him from the opposite side and asked.

"What kind of dog do you think? I am Du Yuhou, the tenth general of Tianxiong Army, and the inspector of Shuozhou. I once helped Wang Binggong kill more than 10,000 bandits in Tongbai Mountain, and helped Zhu Hanlangjun rescue more than 10,000 soldiers from Datong City. In front of Liu Linggong and the young prime minister, I still felt inferior and dared not speak loudly. Do you have the right to be a rank? What qualifications do you have to sit opposite me and the generals?" Xu Huai was disappointed, and he was also angry in his heart. He stared at Tian Zhizhen and patted the desk seat and asked.

Tian Zhizhen didn't expect that Xu Huai turned against him faster than reading the book. He was insulted by him sternly, and his old face turned red, but he didn't know how to refute it.

"Mr. Tian is the person Cai Xiang valued. I and the young minister invited him to the court to participate in the discussion. Xu Jun envoy, what do you think?" Liu Shizhong asked angrily.

"Ah, it turns out that this dog, ah, no, this thing Tian, ​​no, Mr. Tian was invited by Mr. Liu Linggong and the young master. Xu Huai was rude," Xu Huai suppressed the anger in his chest, held the desk with both hands, stood up, closed his eyes and stopped for a while, before bowing to Tian Zhizhen, saying, "I'll ask for a dog, no, Mr. Tian doesn't care about villains. After the military discussion, please ask Mr. Tian to give Xu Huai a chance to apologize!"

"It is said that those who do not know will not be guilty. Xu Huai said that Meng Lang really didn't know that Mr. Tian was a counselor at Cai Xiang's house, so that he could openly enter and exit the hall to discuss military and national affairs. But we who made great achievements in the court have become children with breasts. Xu Huai Meng Lang," Xu Huai walked to the hall again, pressed his sword on his waist, and sat in the middle of Liu Shizhong. Cai Yuanyou looked and asked, "Xu Huai finally asked Liu Linggong, the young minister said: Have you sent envoys to discuss the matter of borrowing troops with the Chihu people? At this time, you just told the generals? What are the benefits of the Chihu people, so that they are willing to borrow troops to attack Datong?"

Tian Zhizhen almost stopped breathing, and Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou were so angry that they all stood up, but Xu Huai's cotton balls were stuffed with steel needles, making it difficult for them to offend Xu Huai for the roaring court.

Another thing is that they announced the matter of borrowing troops. Although most of the generals and officials in the court were the direct trustees of Cai, everyone was surprised and surprised. Liu Shizhong, Cai Yuanyou and the others also saw it.

Guo Zhongxiong and Liu Yan initially strongly opposed borrowing troops. They asked them to persuade them to send envoys to discuss borrowing troops with Chihu people.

Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou were worried about having too many worries about Xu Huai and Zhu Zhi about this matter, which eventually caused the crowd to indignate and cause some twists and turns.

"If you sit back, just listen to what you have. I won't owe you an explanation!" Liu Shizhong had a dark face and ordered Xu Huai to sit back on the seat.

Cai Yuanyou pondered for a while and explained to the generals:

"As the saying goes, military writing is a dangerous thing. When encountering an enemy, it will surround it, and if it is five, it will be divided. Our Dayue gathers 100,000 troops in Yingzhou, but the brave and good warriors are only more than 60,000 Western troops, which is slightly higher than the remaining enemies of Datong, but we cannot forget to be on the side of Datong.

Dan and Xiao Linshi tribes guard Huairen and Jincheng. Tianxiong Army was defeated in Datong. In addition to Yue Hailou secretly contacting the enemy, it is also an important reason for underestimating the enemy. This time, the reason for asking Chihu people to borrow troops was not to underestimate the bravery of the Western Army, but to ensure that Datong was captured without any mistakes. However, this does not mean that we were guarding Yingzhou and not participating in the siege. We have sent envoys to negotiate the conditions for borrowing troops with Chihu people. The two sides agreed to send troops from the north and south to attack Datong City in ten days. If it is our troops in the end.

If we enter Datong and seize all the urban areas of Datong, we will eventually give Chihu people 200,000 guan of reward money; if both sides attack Datong City, in addition to 200,000 guan of reward money, Chihu's troops can plunder the population and wealth of the occupied areas. Therefore, are they afraid of fighting and fearing the enemy? They also rely on the heroic battles of the generals and officials. As long as the generals can lead the lead and capture Datong City and occupy the entire city of Datong, the Chihu people will help each other from afar, and the generals will probably not be reluctant to give 200,000 guan of reward money?"

Xu Huai walked back to the seat and sat down. He Shengsheng and the generals and officials of the Xuanwu army and the Hedong prefectures looked at him and saw that although most of the generals and officials were surprised by the borrowing of troops, their emotions were not very intense.

Liu Yan and Guo Zhongxiong, who had thought they would strongly oppose this matter, should have suppressed or persuaded Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou in advance.

Even though most of the generals and officials of the Cai clan were somewhat ashamed to show weakness, they were fundamentally not vigilant enough towards the Chihu people. This is also the consistent position of the Cai clan and other pro-war factions. They were dissatisfied at this time, and more dissatisfied with borrowing troops would make them seize the merits of Datong, which was not as dazzling as they imagined.

Therefore, even if they were dissatisfied, they would not be so dissatisfied that Zhu Zhi was so angry that he would not really strongly oppose Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou's decision.

Xu Huai was able to calm down at this time because he had a very thorough understanding of the Chihu people's ambitions.

He knew that even if he was prevented from borrowing troops at this time, as long as Xiaosheng won, the Xuanwu army could not decisively withdraw from Yanmen. As long as the government and the people still fantasized about regaining Yanyun at this time, the Chihu people would continue to create opportunities, test the reality of the Great Yue, and then go south blatantly.

Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou's stupidity were just the incompetence and weakness of the civil and military officials of the Great Yue Dynasty. At this moment, they were completely exposed to the eyes of the Chihu Prince and General, which greatly aroused their greed and ambitions. Perhaps before this, the Chihu Prince's Principal was hesitant about whether to go south, but after borrowing troops, Xu Huai believed that the Chihu Prince's Principal should not hesitate any more, right?

Xu Huai was full of thoughts and was indifferent to the subsequent military discussions, and even did not care about Xiaosheng. The subsequent combat arrangements of the Xuanwu army. Anyway, Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou would not arrange for the Tongbai Mountain soldiers to participate in the attack on Datong.

After the military discussion ended, Liu Shizhong and Cai Yuanyou set up a banquet at the headquarters to entertain the generals and officials. Of course, Xu Huai and Zhu Zhi would not stay for the banquet, so they stood up and left.

Xu Huai and Zhu Zhi had just walked out of the marching center. Shi Zhen chased after Xu Huai, first bowed to Xu Huai, then grabbed Zhu Zhi and said, "Liu Langjun sacrificed his life for the court, and it was not a big deal for his coffin to stay in Yingzhou. I want to bring a few people and escort Liu Langjun's coffin back home as soon as possible. Many things here can only rely on you, Zhu Xiaolangjun..."

"That's fine." Zhu Zhi agreed without thinking too much.
