Invincible son

Chapter 856 855 [Winter is approaching]

"Next, we will send a small group of elite soldiers to clean up the military strongholds on the border of the Southern Dynasty, so that they can always feel the feeling of a sharp knife hanging from their heads."

Pei Yue's calm voice sounded in the meeting hall of the General's Mansion.

As the master, Baoding Bo Cai Qian sat at the bottom, but there was no sign of resentment on his face. He raised his eyes and looked at Pei Yue, who was confident in the master's seat, and smiled: "The Southern Peripheral Army has been waiting for the battle during this time, and I must bear it." In fact, in addition to the two directions of southwest and south, we can also target Wuwei City in the east."

There are more than ten military generals in the hall, apart from Gu Jie, Li Jin and Tang Linfen, several of them are confidantes specially sent by the commander of Zhennan Camp, Gong Chenghou Guo Xing and Changping Camp, Puding Marquis Chen Huan.

Guo Xing has a lot of experience and contributions, and his relationship with Gu Liang can be called a life-and-death friendship. He is firmly ranked first among the commanders of the Fifth Battalion of the Southern Army. Even Xiongwu Hou Lanyu with Wang Pingzhang's support cannot shake his position.Pei Yue asked Qian Bing to approach Guo Xing directly because of his status and prestige. Now this veteran is still in Puqi City, responsible for conveying Pei Yue's orders to the generals on the north bank.

Chen Huan, Marquis of Puding, is 39 years old this year, and currently sits in the city of Hanyang.

The reason why they specially sent their confidantes to stay in Jiangling City was that the meaning they wanted to express was not complicated - even if His Majesty hadn't clarified Pei Yue's duties, the soldiers of the Southern Army were still willing to obey Pei Yue's orders.

Tang Linfen glanced at those people, and then eagerly said, "Master Hou, do we want to attack Wuwei City?"

Pei Yue said indifferently: "If we can really win the two cities of Wuwei and Tianchang, all the important towns on the south bank will fall into our hands, and the so-called great river and sky will become a smooth road."

Everyone was extremely excited by his words.

However, at the next moment, Pei Yue poured cold water on them: "Yaoshan camp does not move, how can it be so easy to take Wuwei City? The reason why Hanyang was able to capture Hanyang in one fell swoop was because the troops of the Ningguo camp in the Southern Zhou Dynasty were thanked by Fang Xie." Akatsuki drew half of it, and our actions were fast enough that the other party didn't have time to send more defenders."

Li Jin asked puzzledly: "Didn't the Yaoshan camp feign pressure to cooperate with us when the battle was raging?"

Pei Yue said calmly: "At that time, Lord Shen of Taishitai Pavilion was in the camp of Mount Yao."

Suddenly, everyone admired Pei Yue's ability more and more. At the same time, they realized that Emperor Kaiping attached great importance to him. Even Mo Moyun, who rarely left the capital, appeared in the southern border to serve as his planner.

If it weren't for this, with the unruly and unruly Marquis Lan Yu, it might be difficult for Pei Yue to drive him smoothly.

Pei Yue pondered and said: "This time it hurt the Southern Dynasty, seeking peace is their only option, and our Dynasty can win enough benefits, but everyone should not take it lightly, and must always be prepared for war. Negotiations will not be too much It went well, and we will continue to fight if necessary.”

Everyone should be.

Pei Yue then ordered someone to fetch the map, and began to arrange the next stage of the strategic plan. This time, he didn't need to hide it, but put everything on the bright side, so as to force the Southern Zhou monarchs to bow their heads.

Half an hour later, when Pei Yue finished his strategy, everyone tried hard to digest his tactical concept, especially the generals sent by Guo Xing and Chen Huan, fearing that they would miss a single word, they sincerely told Pei Yue The more you ask for every detail.

At this moment, Feng Yi quickly walked into the meeting hall, bowed and said, "I report to Lord Hou, the imperial envoy has entered the city."

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

From Cai Qian to Tang Linfen, excitement appeared in the eyes of almost everyone.The frontier army fought this battle extremely beautifully, and the captured head alone is enough to raise everyone's military rank and title to a higher level. Although it is impossible for the imperial court to grant a large number of titles, it will always give a reasonable reward, otherwise there will be no stability military spirit.

For them, there is no conflict between defending the family and defending the country and becoming an official. Apart from the ideals in the heart of a man, who wouldn't want to be able to shade his wife and seal his son to shine in the family?

Only one person remained calm. Pei Yue looked at Feng Yi, who was also full of excitement, and said lightly, "Set up the incense table and accept the order."

After a while, Hou Yu, the eunuch who passed the decree, entered the meeting hall with ten imperial guards.

Emperor Kaiping's most trusted eunuchs knew of two people, namely Liu Bao and Hou Yu. The former was old and weak, obviously unable to withstand the long-distance raid from the capital to the border.Hou Yun stood after the new year, and has a martial arts cultivation, so he is naturally the best candidate to go south to pass on the decree.

Although he was a celebrity around the emperor, Hou Yu's attitude was extremely humble, and he saluted Pei Yue as soon as they met, with an almost flattering smile on his face.

It wasn't until he spread out the bright yellow imperial decree that his attitude became solemn and solemn.

Contrary to everyone's expectation, the words of this imperial decree are quite straightforward, there is no point of interrogation, and the military generals in the hall who are proficient in writing can understand it.The content of the imperial decree is also very simple. It is nothing more than a compliment to the frontier soldiers. From Pei Yue to the ordinary soldiers, they will praise them for their victories.

After everyone stood up with joy on their faces, Hou Yu handed the imperial decree to Pei Yue, with a flattering smile on his face and said: "Master Hou, after discussing with the princes of the court, His Majesty has decided to accept the Southern Dynasty's peace proposal. In the past two years, there have been many major events, and the people need to recuperate, so it is not appropriate to start a national war in a hurry."

This is the proper meaning in the question, after all the soldiers and horses go first before the food and grass are moved, and all the generals in the hall also understand this truth.

Pei Yue said indifferently: "It should be so."

Hou Yu glanced at the coveted generals around him, couldn't help smiling slightly, and swallowed nervously.

Pei Yue said calmly: "I know that if you have something to say, you might as well just say it."

Hou Yu's waist was slightly bent, and he said cautiously: "Your Majesty has thought that Lord Hou has been working so hard during this time, so I hope Lord Hou can return to Beijing to rest as soon as possible."

After saying this, he clearly felt that the atmosphere around him was not right.

Pei Yue looked calm, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Who will preside over the peace talks?"

Hou Yu noticed that the faces of the generals next to him became extremely ugly, and he said hesitantly: "Master Han, who is participating in the administration of the Eastern Mansion, the servant passed through Qinzhou on the way here, and has conveyed the order to Lord Han. He will arrive in Puqi in two days. city."

Faced with this blatant act of picking peaches, others finally couldn't bear it.

Tang Linfen was the first to stand up and said angrily: "If there is no Lord Hou, Jiangling City would have been lost long ago! The reason why we have achieved such a great victory is entirely due to Lord Hou's ingenious calculations. Now that we have won the battle, it is thanks to you! But it belongs to someone else, what is going on?"

Li Jinhan said in a cold voice: "No one is more suitable to host the peace talks than Lord Hou. Han's participation in politics is incomprehensible in military matters. Can he continue to put pressure on Nan Zhou?"

Gu Jie said with a sullen face: "What are the princes in the court thinking? Why did His Majesty make such a decision? Is there someone playing tricks in the dark?"

Even Baoding Bo Caiqian expressed his dissatisfaction veiledly.

The voices became more and more angry. Facing this group of powerful generals with heavy troops in their hands, Hou Yu felt like a flat boat in a stormy sea, which might be overturned by the waves at any time.In fact, when he received the order, he knew that it was a hard job. If he really angered Pei Yue because of this, he might not be able to save his own life.

"Go back!"

With a soft reprimand from Pei Yue, the hustle and bustle in the hall gradually disappeared.

He looked at Hou Yu who was sweating profusely and the nervous guards not far away, and said flatly: "We all know that the journey of thousands of miles is hard, please go and rest first. Don't worry about the peace talks. I will discuss with Han Canzheng." Good handover."

Hou Yunuo said: "Thank you Peihou, the servants will leave."

When he left with the forbidden army, Pei Yue turned around and looked at the generals with grief and indignation, with gentle smiles on his face: "Your Majesty is thinking of me, do you really want to see a Duke who is under 20 years old? For me, it's not a bright future, it's a cliff."

He didn't explain in detail, but silenced everyone with just one sentence.

After appeasing the generals, Pei Yue walked out of the meeting hall, breathing in the cool air, his face was still calm, but his heart was filled with a chill.

winter is here.
