Liu Laozhi's face changed, and even Gao Su's brows frowned. Indeed, the Four Conquests and Four Towns were much higher than the miscellaneous generals like General Jianwu. Thinking back then, even Cao Cao's ambition was just a general who was promoted to the Western Conquest. In addition to the Han Dynasty's General of the Carriage and Cavalry, these Four Conquests were already the highest generals of a country. In the current Dajin, there was no general with the word "Zheng".

However, the word "Zheng" followed by a west. Who is in the west? It goes without saying that it is given to Liu Laozhi, the general of the West. What he asked him to do.

Gao Su curled her lips: "Premier Zhang, now our general is the Zhenbeijiang Army, who is in charge of the Northern Prefecture Army, in order to defend the country, not only the Grand Commander, but also the Xie Zhenjun back then, and was appointed as the General of the Zhenjun and the General of the Northern Prefecture. Now, we will suddenly add a general to the Western Expedition. Although it is a great honor, it is.........."

Zhang Fashun coughed dryly, interrupted Gao Su, and said, "This general in the Western Expedition is to reward the contributions made by General Liu in the process of pacifying the demon thieves of the Heavenly Master. Our Grand Jin, as well as His Highness the King of Kuaiji and His Highness the Crown Prince, is a clear reward and punishment. If you have any merits, you must be promoted and rewarded. General Liu deserves his position as General in the Western Expedition. I hope you can avoid arrogance and impetuousness and make new contributions!"

On Liu Laozhi's purple face, his expression changed slightly: "Now the demon thief is basically pacified, and the country is peaceful, and it is necessary to recuperate and resume post-war production. May I ask Taishou Zhang, what does it mean to make new contributions when you are talking about?"

Zhang Fashun laughed: "Mayor Liu, Marie Liu, everyone is smart, and you have to say so clearly what to do. In the Western Expedition, the Great Jin Dynasty is far from being peaceful in the world. Do you really don't know where the real enemy is?"

Liu Yu said coldly: "According to Zhang's meaning, the enemy of the Great Jin Dynasty is not the Hulu in the north, but to the west. Are you referring to the governor Huan of Jingzhou?"

Zhang Fashun nodded with satisfaction: "General Jianwu can see through it. In fact, you should know Huan Xuan's thoughts best. I remember when you were at the Ximatai, you directly criticized Huan Xuan's ambitions. This time, your Beifu Army fought bloody battles with demon thieves in Wu, but Huan Xuan forged an edict to kill Yang Quanqi, the governor of Yongzhou, and Yin Zhongkan, the governor of Jingzhou, was a crime of rebellion. Not only that, he also cut off the absolute grain supply in Yangzhou, and wanted to trap and starve your Beifu Army to death. Have you forgotten such a deep hatred?"

Liu Yu sighed: "Premier Zhang, are you here to pass the order? Is it the official edict of the court or the private decision of His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Zhang Fashun's face changed and he said dissatisfiedly: "General Jianwu Liu Yu, please pay attention to your words. Now the crown prince is the Minister of State and is in charge of the government. However, all resolutions must be presented to His Majesty and stamped with the jade seal. This is the official emperor's order, not his own. Do you doubt this order?"

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Then I would like to ask the prefect Zhang, after my general accepted the position of the General of the Western Expedition, he had to assemble the Northern Prefecture Army and advance westward to attack Jingzhou?"

Zhang Fashun curled his lips: "How could I, the prefect of Lujiang, know about these matters of court discussions? I only know that the court has issued an order to appoint General Liu as the Western Expedition, and I just want General Liu to accept it. And I am just coming here to pass the order."

Liu Yu also put away his smile and said coldly: "If I remember the imperial decree wrongly, the matter of sending the imperial eunuch in the palace or the Huangmen minister should be conveyed by the eunuch in the palace. The prefect Zhang seemed neither an eunuch nor a Huangmen minister. Then why did you convey this decree?"

Zhang Fashun gritted his teeth and looked at Liu Laozhi: "Master Liu, everyone knows some things, so there is no need to say too clearly. Since you were from Wang Gong, you must know how your prince treats you over the years. Now it is not that the prince wants to treat Huan Xuan, but that Huan Xuan has the intention to usurp the rebellion and wants to go to Beijing to seize power after dominating Jingzhou. Instead of waiting for other strong troops and strong horses to attack foreign enemies, it is better to take advantage of the great victory now, with high morale and conquering him. In this way, the Jin Dynasty can be stable for a long time, and you and I can enjoy wealth and honor for a long time. Now that is the case, I hope that Marshal Liu can be more concerned about military affairs while being promoted. Once the court has orders, he must be prepared to go to war at any time."

Speaking of this, he stuffed the edict in his hand into He Wuji's hand, turned around and left. The light outside the tent changed, and his figure had disappeared outside the tent.

Liu Jingxuan gritted his teeth and said angrily: "This guy is too rude! He dares to act wildly in our Northern Palace army. I will take him down now and teach you how to be a human being in the military camp!"

Liu Yu smiled slightly, stopped Liu Jingxuan, and said, "Did you know this person on the first day? Isn't Sima Yuanxian the one who has such a stupid and greedy villain around him that he has achieved what he is today?"

Liu Jingxuan stomped his feet hatefully, turned to look at Liu Laozhi: "Father, Ji Nu is right, Sima Yuanxian really wants us to fight Huan Xuan."

Liu Laozhi sighed and looked at He Wuji: "Wuji, what do you think?"

He Wuji looked solemn and said, "Huan Xuan deserves to die. The troops and horses of Jingzhou have been enemies with our Northern Palace Army many times. Jing Yang's conflict has started from the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty and has continued to this day. It can be said to be a hundred years of grudges. But now, it is not a good time to start a war. Wu is broken and cannot provide a large amount of military rations. Huan Xuan only needs to defend the important land and control the river surface, so it will be difficult for us to break through. What's more, the army was named Wuming, Sima Yuanxian caused the Tianshidao Rebellion, but did not make any apology or make up for it. Before the demon thief was settled, he thought about taking the land of aristocratic families. He had lost all his heart. Our Northern Palace Army was a loyal and righteous army, and could not help the evil. At this time, we must never attack Jingzhou for him!"

Gao Su sighed: "But don't forget, this time they have the imperial edicts from the court, representing the imperial decree of the court. We are not disobeying Sima Yuanxian, but disobeying the imperial orders. Wouldn't we become rebels?"

Liu Yi smiled slightly: "When Wang Guobao issued an order in the name of the court to attack Wang Gong and Yin Zhongkan. Could it be that our Beifu Army would also implement such an imperial decree?"
