However, the confidant on the side quickly said, "General, you must not do this. If you give advice, your Majesty will be offended. There is no need to do this..."
Facing his confidant boxer, Geng Bingwen waved his hand and interrupted coldly.
"Even if it offends Your Majesty, I will still do it."
"We absolutely cannot allow the good son of Ming Dynasty to die in the hands of Li Jinglong like this."
"Li Jinglong simply doesn't have the talent to command an army of 500,000 people!"
Say it.
Geng Bingwen quickly wrote the memorial and prepared to send the memorial to Tianfu in Kyoto at high speed.
It's less than a month old.
Li Jinglong has led a mighty 200,000 troops to the front line.
Today, he is wearing black armor and riding a tall horse. He looks heroic and energetic!
"Happy! These are my handsome soldiers and horses!"
Li Jinglong turned his head and looked at the vast army around him, his face filled with joy.
Even the scene of him defeating King Zhu Di of Yan began to appear in his mind.
An army of half a million VS an army of 100,000.
Will it fail?
How can it be!
What will greet him will only be victory!
Soon, Li Jinglong arrived at the frontline commander's tent.
In the handsome tent.
He met an old general with gray hair.
This old general is none other than Geng Bingwen.
"General Geng, you're welcome and safe!"
Li Jinglong said with a smile, but he also came to complete the handover ceremony of the army with Geng Bingwen.
But he also looked down upon Geng Bingwen, the founding veteran general.
An army of 300,000 people fought against an army of 100,000 people, King Zhu Di of Yan, and they were defeated.
Although it was just a small defeat, it was still a bit ridiculous in Li Jinglong's opinion.
This old general Geng Bingwen is obviously old.
How can such an old man lead an army?
If the army is led by this old man, it will be doomed sooner or later.
"Cao Guogong, I am the commander..."
Geng Bingwen's old face looked a little cold.
"General Geng, what do you mean by this? Are you qualified to call me commander?"
Suddenly, Li Jinglong was a little dissatisfied.
What does this old thing in front of you mean?
Are you unwilling to hand over your army?
On the spot, Li Jinglong didn't bother to extort money and directly took out the imperial edict that had been prepared.
Moreover, he also read out the imperial edict.
The content of the imperial edict is generally that Li Jinglong is the commander-in-chief!
As for Geng Bingwen, don't interfere.
"General Geng, this is your Majesty's wish."
"I hope you will not resist the order."
"If you dare to resist the order, you will be killed without mercy!"
Li Jinglong's face was as frosty as ice. Even when facing Geng Bingwen, the founding veteran of the People's Republic of China, he did not panic at all.
But it's because he is so confident now.
He has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands.
Geng Bingwen was nothing in his eyes.
"Cao Guogong, you..."
Geng Bingwen also wanted to say something.
"General Geng, don't be so obsessed with military power."
"From what I see, General Geng, you might as well go home and farm."
"You are quite old, are you still smart?"
Li Jinglong had a joking look on his face.
Hearing his contemptuous words, Geng Bingwen's old face turned red.
Even though Geng Bingwen had all kinds of anger and resentment in his heart, he could only hold it back in the end.
He did not dare to resist the decree.
If you really resist and disrespect the decree, the consequences will be disastrous.
Not only will he suffer, but his family will also end miserably.
finally.
Li Jinglong successfully replaced Geng Bingwen.
In an instant, Geng Bingwen seemed to have aged more than ten years, and his face looked a little depressed.
The students who witnessed such real-time video footage also sighed.
"With Li Jinglong's appearance, can he command an army of 500,000 people?"
"Isn't this Li Jinglong a fool?"
"What do you mean, this Li Jinglong is just a idiot!"
"Let's see how Li Jinglong defeated the battle!"
…
The students in the auditorium were chattering away and looked down upon Li Jinglong and the others.
Not long after.
Li Jinglong began to handle military affairs.
However, he seemed clumsy in handling all matters in the military.
Because there were too many people in the army, he was really busy for a while.
"My lord, the soldiers are fighting!"
"My lord, some soldiers are secretly drunk!"
"My lord, it's freezing cold here in the north, and the soldiers are not used to the climate!"
"The situation is not good. Many of the Duke's soldiers have fallen ill!"
…
As soon as he took charge of military affairs, all kinds of things happened one after another. Facing these things, Li Jinglong was really the first and the second.
In fact, he was too busy to work anymore.
"Are you guys just trash? I have to do everything myself, so what use are you?"
Li Jinglong, who was sitting at the head of the tent, couldn't hold it back and started yelling curses.
His eyes were filled with endless anger.
He was really angry, and he also realized that he might not be able to take charge of an army of 500,000 people.
This army of 500,000 was like a huge mountain, pressing down on him almost making him breathless.
There was even a hint of regret in his heart.
But there is no regret medicine in this world.
In this way, Li Jinglong bit the bullet and continued to handle military affairs, but the method of handling them seemed very clumsy.
At the same moment.
Geng Bingwen, accompanied by his cronies, has rushed to Kyoto.
Days of hard work and running.
Geng Bingwen arrived in Kyoto, but his face looked very pale.
He had been hurrying on his way before, but his old bones couldn't bear it at all.
"General, you..."
The confidants and followers all showed worried expressions.
"No problem."
Geng Bingwen's lips turned a little white.
He originally wanted to write a memorial, but he was worried that the memorial would not be effective, so he rushed back to Kyoto in person just to meet with His Majesty as soon as possible.
Shortly after.
Geng Bingwen was summoned by Zhu Yunwen.
"I see your Majesty..."
Geng Bingwen saluted respectfully.
But Zhu Yunwen, who was sitting on the dragon chair in the Imperial Study Room, looked livid.
"shut up!"
"General Geng, do you know your guilt? I asked you to lead the expedition before, but you defeated me!"
Say it.
Zhu Yunwen stared at Geng Bingwen with a pair of cold eyes.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! I have great trust in Geng Bingwen before.
But Geng Bingwen's performance greatly disappointed him.
"The ancients said: Victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists."
"The reason why I was defeated is because my soldiers are temporarily unable to adapt to the environment in the north. As long as I am given time..."
Geng Bingwen said hurriedly.
"Give you time and then bury the imperial army?"
Zhu Yunwen interrupted Geng Bingwen in a cold tone.
Now, Geng Bingwen had a headache.
How could he destroy the imperial army?
Although he lost to Zhu Di, it was just a small defeat. He was confident that he would be able to win next.
"General Geng, could it be that you were bribed by King Yan and deliberately lost the battle?"
Suddenly, Zhu Yunwen said in a faint tone.
Hearing this, Geng Bingwen's wrinkled old face suddenly turned extremely pale.
"Your Majesty, there is absolutely no such thing! There is absolutely no such thing!"
He said quickly, his expression frightened and his whole body trembling.
Seeing this, Zhu Yunwen's expression softened a lot.
"I'm sorry you don't dare!"
"Tell me! Why are you looking for me this time?"
At this moment, Geng Bingwen was a little hesitant, whether to say it or not.
But in the end, he still said exactly what was on his mind.
"Your Majesty, Duke Cao Guo is not a suitable candidate for command. Cao Guogong's talents are not enough to take on the important task of commanding an army of 500,000. Your Majesty, please think again!"
In an instant, Zhu Yunwen, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked frighteningly gloomy.
"General Geng, the change of commander is a carefully considered decision between me and the three ministers Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai, and Fang Xiaoru. Therefore, you don't need to worry about this matter! Just open your eyes and see. Cao Guogong has decided to
Fight a beautiful and victorious battle! An army of 500,000 will crush an army of 100,000!"
Gradually a smile appeared on Zhu Yunwen's face.
This time, he was confident that King Yan, a major problem for him, would be able to get rid of him.
Once King Yan is eliminated, the other vassal kings will not be able to cause any trouble.
After hearing this, Geng Bingwen was extremely anxious and said quickly, "Your Majesty, I am willing to guarantee it with my life. If Cao Guogong is allowed to lead the army, this battle will be defeated! I hope your Majesty will take back his life!"
As soon as this statement came out.
Zhu Yunwen's smile froze.
Boundless anger continued to burn in Zhu Yunwen's heart.
Zhu Yunwen felt as if a powder keg had exploded, and shouted angrily, "Geng Bingwen! Don't be too presumptuous! I think you are the founding hero of the country and have made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, you would have been captured and imprisoned long ago!"
Say it.
Zhu Yunwen's pair of dark eyes stared coldly at Geng Bingwen.
In an instant.
Geng Bingwen's heart felt chilly.
Moreover, he also completely understood one thing.
He could not persuade His Majesty.
"I made a mistake."
Geng Bingwen cupped his hands and said.
"Please step back."
Zhu Yunwen waved his hand, not wanting to see the old guy Geng Bingwen again.
that's all.
Geng Bingwen left the palace, but his expression seemed a little lost.
Faced with his appearance as if he had lost his soul, the students watching the real-time video also had different thoughts.
"Zhu Yunwen will definitely lose!"
"Zhu Yunwen is not suitable to be an emperor!"
"In Zhu Yunwen's eyes, the status of these three great Confucian scholars, Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai, and Fang Xiaoru, is really extraordinary, but if you want to govern the country, you cannot rely on these three great Confucian scholars!"
"Bah! Those three great scholars know how to govern the country? They can only talk nonsense!"
…
Every student shook his head and sighed.
Until now.
They have all made up their minds.
Zhu Di may just be where he is destined to be.
Because, Li Jinglong's performance is indeed that of a fool.
How can we fight a war if we can't manage an army of 500,000?
How can the army win if it loses its numerical advantage?
It is said to be an army of 500,000, but in fact it is just a pile of scattered sand!
It was at this time.
The real-time video projection screen has changed.
Two pictures actually appeared.
There is a picture of Li Jinglong handling military affairs in a clumsy way, even scratching his head and head, and he is extremely busy.
In another picture, Zhu Di handles military affairs with ease and familiarity. He handles everything with ease.
The talent between the two is a matter of judgment.
period.
Zhu Di was not only handling military affairs, but also sent spies to secretly investigate the intelligence of Li Jinglong's military camp.
The spies also gained something.
According to the spies' reports, there were many soldiers in Li Jinglong's army who were acclimatized.
After learning such information, Zhu Di couldn't hold back and actually burst into laughter.
"Ha ha!"
Even the monk in black, Yao Guangxiao, could not hold back his laughter.
"God help me!"
Zhu Di showed a side of laughter.
"Your Majesty, great things can be accomplished! The soldiers of the imperial army are all from the south. How can the southern soldiers adapt to the northern climate?"
"It will take a long time to adapt, and during this time, the prince can defeat the imperial army!"
Black-robed monk Yao Guangxiao said with a smile.
"Yeah?"
Zhu Di smiled.
"The imperial army is not just acclimated to the local environment. It also has logistics and supplies that Duke Cao Guo cannot handle at all. As well as the 500,000-strong imperial army, how many people do you think will obey Duke Cao's orders? I'm afraid they will all follow the orders of Duke Cao.
Violation!"
The black-robed monk Yao Guangxiao said slowly.
Zhu Di nodded frequently and seemed to agree with Yao Guangxiao's words.
Just say a little bit.
Cao Guogong had no prestige in the army at all.
Without prestige, how can his soldiers obey him?
Zhu Di had been in the military for many years before, and he knew very well that without prestige, he would never be able to gain a foothold in the military.
Because the army is mostly made up of unruly people, they are either veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles, or they are newbies who are not afraid of tigers. Everyone has their own temper and personality.
If you can't tame them, then these people will definitely do bad things.
The more he thought about it, the better Zhu Di felt.
"Although I haven't fought against the imperial army yet, I can only win but never lose!"
Zhu Di is full of confidence.
The black-robed monk Yao Guangxiao nodded heavily.
Although their 100,000-strong army has not yet fought against Cao Guogong Li Jinglong's army, judging from the current intelligence.
Li Jinglong cannot be reused!
This is an indisputable fact!
Then, the black-robed monk Yao Guangxiao offered advice.
The strategy proposed is a false plan to defeat!
Pretending to lose to Li Jinglong many times, Li Jinglong was dazzled by the victory, thus exposing more flaws.
"good!"
Zhu Di nodded in agreement.
A few days later.
Li Jinglong fought against Zhu Di's army.
period.
Li Jinglong won consecutively.
The Northern Army was beaten to the point where they lost their armor!
It's just that these victories one after another are all small victories!
In the imperial army camp.
Li Jinglong's face was full of joy.
The fighting these days has been really enjoyable.
Winning one after another made him understand a little bit.
That's the Northern Army, nothing more than that!
King Zhu Di of Yan will be killed by him soon!
This time, he really made a great achievement!
"My lord, you are truly extraordinary. I am the God of War of the Ming Dynasty!"
"Commanding an army of 500,000 people, the Duke of Guo is as capable as his arms and fingers, which is admirable!"
"Old General Geng Bingwen cannot be compared with the Duke of Guo at all. If he had been allowed to command the army earlier, I am afraid that King Yan would have been defeated long ago!"
"With the Duke here, we will win!"
…
The soldiers in the camp praised Li Jinglong repeatedly.
Facing these praises, Li Jinglong's face glowed red, his pores were clear, and he felt refreshed.
