high official

chapter 413

Although the three guards of Prince Jin's Mansion are the army of the royal mansion, they are not just for nothing.Moreover, Shanxi is in the borderlands, so it is still necessary to maintain a certain combat effectiveness, so there are two marching drills every spring and autumn.This year, the prince ordered that in order to temper the tenacious will of his subordinates, another winter drill will be added.

When the order was issued, the officers and soldiers complained, but the order was hard to disobey. The officers feared that King Jin would take the opportunity to cleanse dissidents, so they had to drive away the soldiers, pack up and go on the road.So [-] troops, divided into three groups, marched on the frozen Jinzhong Plain.In order to prevent his subordinates from being passive and sabotage, the King of Jin also sent his cronies to supervise the army and report the troops' itinerary every day.

However, even with such a high pressure, the marching of the troops was still not fast. It took less than three hundred miles in five days. When it didn't work, the higher-ups finally issued an order to stop advancing and perform on the spot.

Although it was just stopping the advance, not withdrawing the troops, the soldiers still felt amnesty, at least they could set up camp, and they would no longer have to hold the ice and lie in the snow, right?So the three armies followed the prince's instructions and set up camp in various important roads and narrow passes.The senior officials of the three armed forces were called to the camp of the Chinese army to learn about the next training tasks.

In fact, the so-called high-ranking officials are nothing more than the commander and deputy of the three guards.After receiving the order, Yang Rong, the commander of the left guard, and Chen Bin, the commander of the right guard, rushed to the central guard with their respective deputies.Whether it was intentional or not, the two met when they were approaching the camp of the Chinese Army...

"Junior horse." Commander Yang, who had the same name as cabinet scholar Yang Rong, dismounted with a smile and saluted Chen Bin.

Chen Bin hurriedly dismounted to support him and said, "Uncle Shi made fun of me again, I should be the one to salute you."

"Courtesy cannot be discarded." Yang Rong smiled and shook his head.

"The princess has passed away for many years, so it's hard for Uncle Shi to still remember me as a county horse." Chen Bin said with a bit of bitterness in his smile.

The two sighed for a while, and Yang Rong suggested: "It's not far from the camp, let's go there."

"That's good, my legs are numb from the cold from riding a horse." Chen Bin nodded, and the two handed their horses over to the guards, and walked ahead on foot.

The subordinates knew that the two adults had something to say, so they all wisely left behind.

There was a moment of silence at first, and both of them looked at the snow scene in silence, until Chen Bin couldn't help asking: "Uncle Shi, do you have something to teach me?"

"Hehe." Yang Rong smiled and said, "Jun Ma, what do you think is the situation of this time the troops are sent out for drill?"

"My nephew is dull, I just think it's unusual."

"What kind of unusual method?" Yang Rong asked with a flick of his eyes.

"One is about time. The old concubine had just passed away, and the prince was in great mourning. It is said that he had no time to care about other things, but he personally ordered such a large-scale drill, and ordered Yonghe King to personally supervise the army during the funeral. It is obviously very unreasonable for each army to report once a day." Chen Bin carefully said: "Secondly, there is a formation in the march, and the two wings have to protect the central army, but our two guards are too forward. It’s already in the same shape as the Chinese army. It’s completely inconsistent with the art of war, it looks more like..." He lowered his voice and said, "Soldiers encircle Wutai County!"

"What a soldier encircling Wutai County!" Yang Rong said with a strange smile: "The county horse really saw it."

"I can see it, but I can't figure it out." Chen Bin smiled bitterly: "So I asked Uncle Shi to teach me."

"I don't dare to ask for advice. I'll tell you what I think. Let's discuss it together." Yang Rong stroked his gray beard and said, "Since it is surrounded by soldiers, we must know what it is surrounded by." He said with a smile: "Let's After all, it is not the prince's direct lineage, this point needs to be clarified."

"En." Chen Bin nodded, deeply convinced: "That's exactly the case. Then what is it surrounded by?"

"People." Yang Rong said lightly.

"Uncle Shi..." Chen Bin smiled wryly, "It's already this time, you still have the mood to joke."

"I'm not joking." Yang Rong said solemnly: "Our two armies have already passed through Wutai County, and we haven't found any Bailian bandits, horse thieves, and the like. Some reckless bandits dare to approach." After a pause, he said, "There are only one person in the net now, so I guess, what the lord wants to arrest is an individual, rather than annihilating any force."

"Who on earth is worthy of the lord's enthusiasm?" Chen Bin asked in surprise.

"I don't know." Yang Rong shook his head and said: "But I know, this person, first of all, can't see the light, otherwise the prince will just say who he is. The second is a big obstacle to the prince, and most of them are fatal..."

"Oh?" Chen Bin suddenly thought of a possibility, and sweated profusely: "It can't be, it can't be... Your Highness?"

"I didn't say anything." Yang Rong shook his head and said, "I didn't hear what the county horse said, oops, I'm old and hard of hearing."

"Yes." Chen Bin nodded quickly and said, "What you said is true. I didn't say anything." Even so, the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. Strictly sealed, but there are still rumors of high-level officials like him.Now that His Royal Highness King Jin is mobilizing so many people to come to Wutai County to arrest people, people have to connect these two things!

The two fell into silence again. Seeing the Chinese army camp getting closer and closer, Chen Bin's heart rose to his throat, and he smiled wryly: "My dear uncle, finish your sentence quickly, you will suffocate the little boy!" nephew."

"Hehe..." Yang Rong smiled and said, "Jun Ma still doesn't understand what the old man means? We have to think about our future."

"In the future..." Chen Bin's mouth was full of bitterness.One of them is Lao Qi's father-in-law, and the other is the prince's son-in-law, both of them are branded as abolished King Jin.With King Jin's character, he definitely wanted to keep the military power in his own hands. He didn't move them now, but he didn't care about it. When the time is right, he will definitely do it.That's why Yang Rong's words made him feel so depressed, and he sighed after a while: "I plan to resign from the prince during the New Year, hand over the military power in my hand, and build a garden in front of the princess's tomb, and spend the rest of my life talking..."

"Why is the county horse so negative?" Yang Rong raised his brows and said, "The old man is over fifty, and he still doesn't say goodbye. Are you going to give up before you reach your thirties?" The Yang and Yang families are on the verge of decline, and you, as the son of Chen's family, have to shoulder the responsibility!"

"Why don't I want to cheer up?" Chen Bin looked down at his subordinates behind, and sighed, "But now Shanxi is ruled by Lao San, and our blessings and misfortunes are all in his hands. How can we not let others go?" Fish?"

"Hehe..." Yang Rong said with a smile: "What I said about my feelings before is all in vain."

"What you said before..." Chen Bin was stunned, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Shi said that King Jin has not won yet?"

"That's right." Yang Rong nodded heavily and said, "I was wondering what would happen if that person jumped out of the encirclement?"

"That person will go north..." Chen Bin swallowed and said, "And then?"

"Who is there in the north?" Yang Rong asked in a low voice.

"There is... Dai Wang Ye." Chen Bin suddenly said: "That person will not go to Dai Wang Ye?"

"In addition to the acting king, there is also an imperial envoy," Yang Rong said in a deep voice, "I think His Royal Highness, King Jin, is so desperate to catch him. I'm afraid it's not just because he's afraid of him escaping, but because he has enough power in his hands to turn the tables. s things!"

"What?" Chen Bin asked with difficulty.

"How would I know?" Yang Rong shook his head and said, "Although His Royal Highness Jin is cautious, he is not impeccable, such as the relationship with the Guangling County, such as Jixiang..." Seeing the gate of the village, he whispered: "Don't guess, you just need to know these things in your heart, and we will discuss it in the long run after the discussion is over."

"Okay!" Chen Bin nodded heavily.

While talking, the two entered the camp, came to the tent of the Chinese army, and met Yonghe Wang Zhu Jilang.Zhu Jihong is in his twenties, eight feet tall, with a back of a monkey and a waist of a wasp. In addition, he is dressed in a decent Shu brocade battle robe and a belt with a lion's mouth, which looks very heroic.It's just that his face is so hostile that people dare not look directly into his eyes.

His cold eyes slowly swept across the generals in the tent, and he said in a deep voice: "You must have wanted to know for a long time, we have more than 1 horses, and we are not in Taiyuan City during the national mourning. What are you doing here?"

None of the generals dared to answer, but they all waited for him to express.

"Actually, we're here to arrest people!" Zhu Jihong didn't hold back, and revealed the mystery: "Liu Zijin, the bandit leader of the White Lotus Sect, was deceived out of his lair in Guangling County by some tricks from the prince, and now he is in Wutai County!" After a pause, he said one word at a time: "We are here this time to arrest him and bring him to justice, and eliminate a great evil for Shanxi! For the emperor and the king of Jin to share the worries!"

The generals finally couldn't help being amazed, they never imagined that this trip was to catch Liu Zijin!
Yang Rong and Chen Bin looked at each other quickly, and they both saw ridicule in each other's eyes... In order to deceive others, they actually moved Liu Zijin out!Saying this in my heart can only deceive fools, how could Liu Zijin leave his lair in Guangling County?His old birthday star eats arsenic—is he tired of living?
"Before, I was afraid of leaking the news and frightened the rebels away, so I kept it from everyone." Zhu Jihong continued: "Now, I will read the prince's will!"

"The ministers are waiting for the order!" All the generals knelt down on one knee in unison!

"Decree of the King of Jin - all the generals under his command who can win Liu Zijin, regardless of life or death, will be promoted to three ranks and rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver! The subordinates will be rewarded with 5 taels of silver! Thank you!"

"The minister waits to accept the order!" All the generals cheered up at once, and each of them was absolutely unexpected, but this kind of unexpected is really too tempting!

The key is that Liu Zijin left his lair, even if he brought his men, there would not be too many, and there is no danger in arresting him, it just depends on who is lucky!

Looking at the generals who were eager to try, Zhu Jihong showed an inscrutable smile, and said slowly: "You wait on the sand table and listen to my orders!"

"Here!" All the generals responded in unison, their voices were much more energetic than before!
