Chapter three hundred and ninety-ninth: where to go, who to go from whom
Chen Sanlang and Mo Xuanyi had a grudge, as if there was God's will in the dark. Now they have both arrived in Yongzhou to gain a foothold. When they think about it, they feel a little sad.
This Mo Xuanyi is a person with a clear grudge. Chen Sanlang saved him that day, and he knelt down on the spot. He received a bag of silver and now he gives back a piece of rare paper...
Something interesting.
Playing with the paperweight, Chen Sanlang felt thoughtful.
Liu Yuan said again: "Mr. Chen, my elders still have a letter. Please read it."
As he said that, he took out a letter in his arms.
Chen Sanlang took it, picked the sealed red paint, looked carefully, and said calmly: "I understand."
"Since that's the case, I'll resign."
Chen Sanlang smiled: "No hurry, the messenger Liu arrived from a long distance, at least he had to have a meal before leaving. Otherwise, if it spreads out, wouldn't others laugh at me for being rude?"
Liu Yuan bowed and said, "So, thank you, my son."
When the meal started, Chen Sanlang asked someone to take Liu Yuan and his party to the guest room to rest.
There are two left in the hall, Chen Sanlang and Jiang Caoqi.
"Sanlang, that guy has your old acquaintance?"
Chen Sanlang nodded and said briefly.
Jiang Caoqi suddenly came over and asked again: "Did he ask us to raise an army to the prefectures and counties?"
"Yes, that's what it means, and I'm going to be the leader of the alliance."
"Leader?"
Jiang Caoqi was stunned: "This plan is quite loud, would it be of no use?"
"Maybe."
Chen Sanlang smiled and said, "But we won't go."
"Oh, it turns out you've made up your mind."
After thinking about it, Jiang Caoqi said, "There is a reason not to go. This is really not easy to get into."
He led the troops to fight with rich experience, so he naturally had calculations. The Shi Po Army's strength was definitely a tough one. Although several rebels were united, they had their own ulterior motives and could not even be tied up. Even if they were alliances, they were just a mob. If they were accidentally swallowed by Shi Po Army, it would be more than worth the loss.
Now the city has finally managed to train these soldiers. If they are damaged or destroyed, Laoshan will be in danger.
Chen Sanlang said slowly: "Actually, what I am more worried about is the imperial army."
Jiang Caoqi was shocked: "Are you talking about Jiang Zhen's troops who were chasing all the way?"
"Yes, with this armour in it, the so-called Rebel Alliance is just a joke."
"Yes, why didn't I expect it?"
Jiang Cao slapped his thighs together.
Most of the rebels in Yongzhou were planning to leave in court, but Jiang Zhen was a legitimate general of the court. When he came, he issued an order, but who dared not to obey?
If you don’t follow, you will rebel! But if you follow, you will be recruited and lose your autonomy. If you are letting you be a cannon fodder, you have to go forward obediently...
"Tsk tsk, did Mo Xuanyi and the others not realize this?"
Chen Sanlang said: "So what if you realize it? They were originally for glory and wealth. One general succeeded and had thousands of bones bleak, or was trying to make a contribution in front of the imperial army, and they showed that the rebel army was difficult to become a climate."
After hearing this, Jiang Caoqi felt horrified. After thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case.
The chaotic situation in Yongzhou gave the rebel army the opportunity to rise. When the barbarian army was defeated, the court naturally recovered Yongzhou and ruled again. Where could there be room for the rebel army to exist? They could only be recruited and reorganized.
But if you want to be well treated, you have to perform well and make contributions at this time. Therefore, you know that going to the prefectures and counties is a pit, but you still have to go there. As long as you have military achievements, you will have a good plan in the future. As for the casualties of the subordinates, the battlefield is cruel and inevitable. Going on with swords and guns, life and death can only be achieved by fate.
"But what will happen if we don't go?"
There was a flash of light in Chen Sanlang's eyes, and he said one by one: "Brother-in-law, the rebellion in Yongzhou will not stop. It's still early for the court to recover."
When Jiang Caoqi heard this, he finally knew what his brother-in-law was. If this was the case, he would have enough time to develop his foundation and grow stronger step by step. However, Shi Pojun was defeated, so what else would happen?
...
"What, he won't come back?"
In the plum blossom valley and in the stone house, Lu Jing jumped up after hearing Uncle Fu's reward.
Uncle Fu smiled bitterly and said, "The young master said that he had read books of sages since he was a child, received teachings, and had to do things with beginnings and ends, so he would not give up halfway."
Lu Jing was so angry that his beard became tilted: "I'm confused, why did this kid become so pedantic?"
He knew this son well and read poetry but had a gap in his heart. He was not the kind of nerd who was too obsessed with the times. In this case, how could he say that kind of thing now? Did he give up on himself and change his mind?
As various news continued to be transmitted into the valley, Lu Jing became more and more unable to sit still.
Shipojun was like a dog that was stranded, throwing his armor and fleeing to the prefectures and counties. Later, the court general Jiang Zhen chased after him and won several battles in succession, which was a triumphant song. The rebels in Yongzhou gathered people and gathered from all directions to the prefectures and counties, forming a swagger with the court army, and wanted to encircle and annihilate the Shipojun here...
The situation is already quite clear, and Shi Pojun fights in a trapped beast, and there is no way to turn things around.
Lu Jing thought of calling Lu Qingyuan back and setting a future. Who knew that after sending Uncle Fu, he returned in disappointment.
"Uncle Fu, you are really, didn't I tell you? If he doesn't come back, he will have to tie him back."
Uncle Fu cried and said, "Master, I saw the young master and could no longer find anyone. I just went to patrol down there."
Lu Jing was very annoyed: This kid is really addicted to being a broken county magistrate... The key is that this county magistrate is unclear and may be removed at any time!
Just as he was angry, his disciples came to report that several family masters had arrived.
Of course, Lu Jing understood their purpose, saying that they would organize their trip to the mountains and go to Laoshan Prefecture to meet Chen Sanlang, and that Chen Sanlang must raise an army to the prefectures and counties, cooperate with the imperial army, and besiege Shi Pojun.
This idea was come up with the head of the He family. He made a generous statement saying that the country is in danger and every man is responsible. At this moment, he should do his part! Although he is unable to join the army, he can at least be a lobbyist!
This move was approved by people from all major families. Regardless of whether Chen Sanlang finally sent troops, they would gain a great reputation after the incident was spread. If the court knew it, it would be rewarded.
Lu Jing also agreed, so he was anxious to ask Lu Qingyuan to come back. Otherwise, it would be a bit embarrassing to be his son mixed with it. But what annoying is that his son did not understand his father's painstaking efforts and refused to return.
He calmed down his anger a little and asked his disciples to invite all the masters in.
Soon, several old men with high crowns and wide robes entered one after another. As soon as they sat down, they all started talking excitedly.
During this period, someone said, "We should set off as soon as possible, otherwise if Chen Sanlang had already raised an army, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole room was filled with awesomeness.
Yes, who can guarantee whether Chen Sanlang will be moved by the huge reward? Maybe he is already dispatching troops and preparing to set off. In that case, wouldn’t they be able to escape? Don’t be able to gain fame at that time, but instead become a laughing stock.
OK, let's set off early tomorrow morning!
