"Furthermore, nephew Zhongda used to live in the mountains and has rich survival experience. He is naturally very familiar with marching and fighting. The war in northern Xinjiang is tense and the three cities are in emergency. With experience in the mountains, it should be extremely easy to run back and forth. Therefore, nephew Zhongda
If you take command, we will definitely win this battle!"
"As for the strategy, if Zhongda's nephew is lacking, he can bring two smart military advisors to assist him. As long as the nephew can follow the military advisor's plan, victory is expected!"
Sima Yun was furious and wanted to continue to refute, but Lin Yi stopped him!
Just kidding, I couldn’t even ask for such a good opportunity. Finally, someone showed up to me, so don’t push it away!
"Father, Grandpa Wang, if you don't give up, I'm willing to take command and go to war!"
Lin Yi solemnly clasped his fists and bowed: "I have some experience in marching and fighting, and I have a lot of research on battle formations. In addition, I have several helpers, all of whom are masters. This battle will definitely bring glory to our county."
National prestige!"
Sima Yun was startled. He just didn't want Lin Yi to be in danger, it wasn't that he didn't believe in Lin Yi's ability!
Not to mention anything else, just from the level of commanding battle formations before, you know that your son is a handsome man!
Naturally, Sima Yunfei had bad intentions in recommending Lin Yi, and Sima Yunqi, as his father, must oppose it.
But if Lin Yi takes the initiative to ask for a fight, then he will give his full support!
"Father, what Zhongda said is indeed true. He has a deep knowledge of battle formations. If he is confident in taking charge, I think it is feasible!"
Sima Yunqi's attitude changed 180 degrees, and now it was Sima Yunfei's turn to be confused.
No, why did you change your position without even saying hello?
I’ve prepared a lot of things to say but haven’t said them yet!
It’s so uncomfortable to hold this in!
Should we continue to speak out? But there is no point in speaking!
Sima Yunfei's thinking suddenly became a little confusing. At this time, based on the principle of opposing what the enemy supports, he should oppose Sima Zhongda's taking command, right?
No, you brought this up yourself, are you against yourself?
Sima Yunfei couldn't help but scratch the back of his head and decided to calm down and deal with the matter.
Sima Zhengxin didn't care what he was thinking, he laughed loudly and stood up: "Okay! He is indeed a good man of our Sima family! This is the momentum we want!"
"In that case, then Zhongda will make preparations. At dawn tomorrow, he will take command and go out! As long as the food, grass, troops and horses are provided, they will be ready tonight!"
"Thank you, Grandpa Wang, for trusting me. I will definitely fulfill my mission! This expedition will definitely defeat the army of Selenium and Tongjun!"
Lin Yi bowed to accept the order, with a smile on his face.
How troublesome is it to scheming with them in the royal capital, establishing your authority and fame, and then gaining the right to speak step by step?
It is rare that Selenium Copper County presents such a good opportunity to obtain military power, but it saves a lot of effort!
Since ancient times, political power has come from the barrel of a gun. Whoever has soldiers in his hands speaks louder!
As long as this battle is won, Lin Yi's voice in Hongshang County will skyrocket!
Everyone looked at each other, has it been decided? Isn't it a little hasty?
Sima Yunfei also had some doubts about life. He was obviously the one who proposed Lin Yi to lead the expedition, so it really happened. But he was also a little worried and felt that he should object.
For example, Zhongda just came back and said a few words. He was not familiar with military affairs and would easily kill the three armies by cheating...
Speaking of which, the old man is really arrogant. How dare you let a boy who has never led an army or even found out his details to lead an expedition?
Aren't you afraid that your family's fortune will be ruined?
Sima Yunfei was very entangled in his heart. He wanted to say these things, but he dared not say them...
If you really tell me, the old man will probably slap him with a big mouth!
"Very good! This matter is settled like this, but this is only an internal decision of our Sima family. We still need to go to the main hall to discuss it. You just go together, and everyone else has dispersed!"
Sima Zhengxin waved his hand and ordered Sima Yunfei and several other people with official positions to go to the main hall to discuss with Lin Yi.
The civil and military officials had gathered in the main hall, and the army of Se Tong County was at the border. None of them dared to neglect, and they all came as fast as possible.
Unexpectedly, the king of the county did not come out, but sent an old eunuch here to introduce the situation.
After finally waiting for Sima Zhengxin to come out, someone immediately came forward and said: "Your Majesty! After discussion, I believe that the selenium copper commandery is sending troops at this time with sinister intentions and may join forces with other countries to attack. Therefore, this battle is extremely dangerous. If
If you can avoid fighting, it's best not to fight!"
Sima Zhengxin's mouth twitched, and he felt a little disgusted. Why are there so many people begging for peace and surrender?
Just as I was thinking about this, someone else came out and said that they would fight back resolutely and that they must not tolerate rape. The whole scene was basically the same as before in Qiushi Palace.
Sima Zheng didn't want to read what happened again, so he lightly tapped the armrest of the throne a few times. After the hall became quiet, he slowly glanced at the ministers.
"The Lone King has already made a decision on this matter, dear sirs. There is no need to say anything more. The ambition of Selenium Copper County cannot be satisfied by peace talks, so the Lone King decided to send troops to go out and defeat the 200,000 troops of Selenium Copper County!"
"This battle will be led by Wang Sun Sima Zhongda. We will recruit 20,000 elite garrison troops from the royal capital and 30,000 elite garrison troops from the counties and cities along the way. We will set off early tomorrow morning!"
The ministers were shocked. Lin Yi came back too short, not even a night passed. Almost no ministers in the royal capital had seen Lin Yi. When they heard that such a person was in charge, they felt unreliable no matter how much they thought about it!
But before they could object, Sima Zhengxin had already made his decision and called Lin Yi to come out: "Sima Zhongda came out to receive the seal!"
Lin Yi took a step forward, clasped his fists and bowed: "Your Majesty Sima Zhongda!"
"The lonely king appoints you as the general who conquers the captives, leads the tiger talisman, commands the three armies, and takes charge of the affairs of the Selenium and Copper County! The royal capital's military strength is limited, and it must leave enough troops to deal with the Black Charm County, so the lonely king allows you to act according to the opportunity.
You can recruit additional troops on the spot!"
Sima Zhengxin announced in person, and Lin Yi bowed to accept the order.
All the ministers wanted to object, but Sima Zhengxin was determined at first sight, and it was useless for anyone to object!
So everyone just looked around, but in the end no one came to take the lead!
"Your Majesty, the general who conquered the captives is young and talented. He is indeed the best among men, but after all, it is the first time to lead an army alone. Would it be better to send a few deputy commanders and military advisors to assist?"
An old man came out and proposed loudly with his fists clasped.
He is Feng Ruoting, the contemporary head of the Feng family among the four major families.
Taiwei of Hongshang County, one of the most powerful people in the royal capital.
Since Sima Zhengxin was determined to let the Sima family take charge, Feng Ruoting couldn't object, so he would add some sand to it!
Deputy commander-in-chief and military advisor are also one of the most important positions in an army.
If the cooperation is good, there is still a chance to directly take away the power of the coach!
"My Feng family is also one of the few families of military generals who protect the country in Hongshang County. How can we lag behind others in such a battle to protect the country? As the saying goes, we should not avoid relatives when it comes to internal affairs. The Feng family is willing to shoulder the full responsibility of deputy commander-in-chief and military advisor!
"
Sima Zhengxin sneered secretly, did he want to invest in advance?
