Invincible son

Chapter 981 982 [The gradually opened curtain]
As if Wang Pingzhang didn't notice that Emperor Kaiping looked past him and looked behind him, he turned his head to look at Guangping Hou Guliang, and asked gently, "What's the plan of the right army?"

Gu Liang replied unhurriedly: "Duke Wei is well versed in the way of combining the law of war with the right and the strange. This strategy should be well handled, and it should be able to solve the current predicament in northern Xinjiang. There is still a hidden worry. The barbarians are so cruel and heartless. If they are defeated in the battle, if they are allowed to return to the depths of the wilderness to recuperate, they may make a comeback in the future. Therefore, I believe that the goal of this battle is not only to win, but to sweep the ground and completely eliminate the threat of the barbarian group."

Lin Lin's murderous intent filled the room.

Compared with Wang Pingzhang, who was over sixty years old, Gu Liang was more than ten years younger after all, and he was in command of the army in the southern border two years ago, so his attitude was tougher and his tone was harsher.

Wang Pingzhang couldn't help nodding his head and said: "You Junji is indeed more thoughtful."

He then bowed to Emperor Kaiping and said: "Your Majesty, according to the regulations of Daliang, the Beijing camp is responsible for supporting the state capitals of various regions. Now the Xuanhua camp has to defend the land of the three states, and its strength is stretched. Therefore, the Beijing camp must be sent north."

Emperor Kaiping glanced at the three Beijing commanders behind Wang Pingzhang, Zhongshan Hou Peiyue, Changxing Hou Qujiang and Dingjun Hou Luo Huanzhang, and then asked calmly, "Does Duke Wei have anyone to recommend?"

Wang Pingzhang cupped his hands and said, "The veteran thought that Qu Jiang, the head coach of the Xiying Camp, would definitely be competent."

Qu Jiang immediately went out to salute and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers and the Xiying officers and men are willing to share the worries of your father, annihilate the barbarians and destroy their lairs, and avenge the people of northern Xinjiang!"

Pei Yue remained unmoved.

The situation was so chaotic that it was difficult to see clearly, and Qu Jiang's words did not involve Pei Yue, and there was no hint of provocation in his words, as if he really wanted to lead the army into battle.

Qu Jiang said tit for tat: "Master Xu, may I ask the West Wu army invaded the Lingzhou border in the fifth year of Kaiping, was it the West Camp or the North Camp that was in charge of supporting?"

Emperor Kaiping's eyes showed slight anger, he had never seen such a donkey-like courtier, he had clearly reminded him before, but he was still stubborn and stubborn.

Pei Yue frowned slightly, and looked at the man, only to see that it was Xu Shou, the governor of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion, who was in charge of the logistics of millions of soldiers in Daliang.

He not only won the respect of Wang Pingzhang and Gu Liang, but also pleased Emperor Kaiping.

The rest of the ministers had different thoughts, Luo Ting looked at Pei Yue in puzzlement, apparently wondering why he hesitated.

He took a step to the side, his eyes swept over the thoughtful ministers around him, and then stayed on Emperor Kaiping's face, bowing to pay respects, very solemn.

After expressing his attitude, Gu Liang lowered his head and looked at the gold brick ground. The problem in the northern border was indeed difficult, but the barbarians only had a few thousand troops after all, so it was not enough for him, the right soldier, to go into battle.While Emperor Kaiping was silent, he was very curious about who would come forward next. As for Wang Pingzhang and Qu Jiang's harmony, it did not change his view on this matter.

Xu Shou said angrily: "Master Qu, I have no intention of underestimating the West Camp, but it is clearly written in the regulations of the Five Armies Governor's Mansion that Emperor Zhongzong streamlined and restructured the system and established three major battalions of the Beijing Army. The West Camp is in charge of Qizhou, Yuzhou, Lingzhou, etc., the South Camp is in charge of the five states in the south, and the North Camp is in charge of the three states in the north. Each performs its duties without interfering with each other, and it is not allowed to change without special circumstances."

Emperor Kaiping's face was calm, as if he finally remembered that there was a person standing over there at this moment, so he asked, "Pei Yue, are you willing to share my worries?"

Qu Jiang muffled: "Please."

Xu Shou replied calmly: "Western Wu has raised hundreds of thousands of troops. Your Majesty ordered the northern battalion to support first, and the western battalion to stand by later. This is the special situation I mentioned. Although the barbarians are brutal and fierce, there are only a few thousand in the end. Troop strength, does Lord Qu think it is necessary to mobilize the two battalions of the Beijing Army with [-] troops to go north?"

Gu Liang said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, Caichen said just now that this battle must not only be won, but also the hidden dangers of the barbarians must be completely resolved. To achieve this means that the victory in the war on the border is just the beginning, and the next When I come down, I have to go deep into the wilderness, find the old nests of the barbarians and destroy them. I have checked historical materials these days and found that there are many tribes in the wilderness. Now it seems that one of them has grown and swallowed up the other tribes, and its strength has been greatly enhanced. I think It’s not easy to get there.”

Luo Ting, who is in charge of the right, nodded and said: "You Junji's words are reasonable. Your Majesty, the minister also agrees with this policy."

His two predecessors did not end well. Li Bingzhong ransacked his family and exterminated his family, Guo Kaishan's head was in a different place, and the governor's office of the Five Armies was easy to be splinted. When he was the governor, I don't know how many people were waiting to see his jokes.

But he can't blatantly explode, because this is a secret room discussion between the monarch and his ministers, and Pei Yue's stubborn attitude seems to indicate one thing, that is, he has already noticed that the situation in the capital is very wrong, and then he wants to stay and sit in charge To deter Xiaoxiao, in the final analysis, it is out of loyalty.

He turned to look at Emperor Kaiping and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, I would like to personally lead a bodyguard of cavalry and a bodyguard of infantry to go north. If the barbarians cannot be wiped out, I would like to apologize with death!"

He didn't look at Qujiang's ugly face, and continued: "The wilderness is very vast, so the cavalry that needs to fight for thousands of miles and has an extremely strong centripetal force, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain strength in that harsh environment Your Majesty, leaving aside the tempering of the Tibetan Front Guards in the western region, last year when the Southern Zhou Dynasty provoked the war, they went deep into the enemy's rear and traveled thousands of miles one after another. In such a dangerous situation, they can still maintain high morale. Knowing the main force shows Pei Yue's ability to lead troops."

What a brain...

However, Gu Liang, who had been silent all this time, said: "Your Majesty, after thinking about it carefully, let Pei Yue take Zang Fengwei to the northern border."

Facing Emperor Kaiping's gaze, Gu Liang gave his own conclusion: "If you talk about fighting head-to-head, I believe that the Xiao cavalry guards in the West Camp and the Long Xiang Guards in the South Camp will definitely have the power to fight against the front guards in Shangzang. But in the face of the special environment and extremely demanding requirements in northern Xinjiang, I believe in the outstanding qualities of Zang Fengwei in the past actual combat."

In the absence of Mo Haoli and Han Gongduan, when Luo Ting and Gu Liang faced Wang Pingzhang who was alone, their agreement was very important. In addition, Xu Shou, who was Jane's heart in the emperor's heart, was the first to express his opinion. It is a foregone conclusion that Yue will leave Beijing this time.

Just like this moment.

It's just that no one expected that Xu Shou, who was born as a civil servant, made his first stab at the Governor's Mansion itself. With the cooperation of Yushitai and Taishitai Pavilion, a large group of corrupt officials were found out, and then many young and talented people were added. The energetic officials have a dignified atmosphere, which is impressive.

Gu Liang calmly said: "The Marquis of Changxing don't want to misunderstand, just listen to me."

If the battlefield is right, Qu Jiang can end Xu Shou's life with one shot, but he is obviously not the opponent in the verbal battle in the imperial study.Fortunately, he is a person who has climbed up with his real ability, so he will not lose his composure in front of the imperial court, and immediately changed the subject: "What Master Xu said is indeed reasonable, but when His Majesty proposed the rotation strategy, it was originally to keep the capital in the capital. The strength of the battalion. In the battles of the western region and the southern region, the Zangfengwei fought beautifully, but they also worked hard and suffered a lot of losses, so they should continue to rest and wait for the next day, so that's why."

Emperor Kaiping was both angry and pleased, so he ignored Qujiang's challenge for a while.

No matter how good-tempered Qu Jiang was, he couldn't hold back at this moment, and asked with a sullen face, "Could it be that Mr. Jun Ji doesn't think highly of the strength of the soldiers of the West Camp?"

In the strange silence, a person suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty Qizuo, since you want to use cavalry to encircle and suppress the barbarians, the Tibetan Front Guards of the Northern Camp will do their part!"

Qu Jiang's eyes were sad, the matter had come to this point, he knew that his thoughts were irrelevant.

Emperor Kaiping moved slightly, nodded and said: "Aiqing is worthy of being my tiger."

But before Pei Yue opened his mouth, Qu Jiang frowned and retorted: "Master Xu, the Tibetan front guards are indeed brilliant in battle, but the Beijing army is not limited to the northern camp, and the cavalry is not limited to the Tibetan front guards. The western camp also has Xiao cavalry guards. Over the years, Yanping will be hunted." , Xiao cavalry guards' achievements are obvious to all, and it is easy to exterminate the barbarians."

Pei Yue has not spoken before, which is actually a bit strange, because in the past whenever he was present, the emperor would always ask him for his opinion in a timely manner, but today he is like a transparent person from beginning to end.In fact, his mind was not on the war in northern Xinjiang at all, but quietly watched the statements of the people in the imperial study, and then thought a lot.

Then he said seriously: "I obey the order."

Emperor Kaiping's heart suddenly tightened.

If he remembers correctly, this is the first time that Pei Yue performed such a big gift when he got it right.

It seems to have a sad meaning of parting.
