Li Yuze thought about all the generals in the dynasty and found that no one could deal with the barbarians in Xiyue.
If Marquis Rongan was still alive, he could still give it a try.
But now, Marquis Rongan is no longer here, and the outstanding disciples who guarded the territory with Marquis Rongan have all died on the battlefield.
Nowadays, the person who supports the Rong family is the youngest son of Marquis Rong An, but he was not born to practice martial arts, so he became a civil servant.
Let him kill the enemy, it is better to let him die.
At this moment, someone from the palace came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the young marquis of the Rong family has returned to Beijing and is asking for an audience outside the palace gate."
The father and son were stunned for a moment, and Li Yuze raised his eyebrows: "So fast?"
The news he received yesterday said it was hundreds of miles away.
The palace man replied respectfully: "Back to Your Highness, Mr. Rong Xiaohou has received news that the West Vietnam is trying to invade our border in Dayuan again, so he hurried back to the capital."
When the old emperor heard this, he immediately became energetic: "He is here for Western Vietnam?"
I believe that Li Yuheng wants to avenge those years ago more than anyone else.
For some reason, the old emperor suddenly had some expectations for this youngest son of the Rong family who had been away from the capital since he was a child.
Therefore, this is the reason why they have been unable to find out the background of those people for so long.
"You know that list?"
"Your Majesty, if the debt between my Rong family and Xiyue cannot be recovered with my own hands, how can I have the dignity to face my ancestors underground a hundred years later?"
The old emperor waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, I guess he doesn't have the ability, and he doesn't dare to risk the lives of his whole family. Even if the border is broken, won't there still be your second brother?"
Seeing that he was confident, the emperor said no more, but Li Yuze couldn't help but ask one more question: "Master Rong Xiaohou, you can't just sit in a tent in the rear and have peace of mind when you go to the border. You have to understand the art and tactics of war."
…”
In fact, Mo Jingzhan had made some speculations before, but it was not confirmed. He only mentioned it to the old emperor.
As long as you select a few guilty ones to kill chickens and honor monkeys, are you still worried about others being disobedient?
"The people on that list were all from West Vietnam. After the incident was completed, they withdrew to West Vietnam."
What's more, half of the people guarding the northwest border are Pingyang Marquis.
Seeing how happy he was, the old emperor immediately said: "Okay, then you can send out troops immediately. When you come back, I will hold a celebration banquet for you."
What follows is self-evident.
Rong Xi's eyes lit up and he immediately said loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Perhaps, even if the son raised by Marquis Rongan cannot practice martial arts, he still has a good brain, right?
Therefore, he nodded: "Okay, as long as you can do it, I will hand over the Northwest Army to you again, but if it fails..."
"The people who can be found on the list are either dead or missing. The rest are missing. I wonder if Wei Chen is right?"
His Rong family has been in the military for generations, but before he was dealt with, the roots were cut off.
Li Yuze pursed his lips. To be honest, he was not very relieved.
However, before he could finish his words, he was intercepted by Rong Xi: "Your Majesty, the humble minister is to be the commander-in-chief. He only needs to command the army from the rear. There is no need to go to the battlefield to fight in person. Besides, throughout the ages,
There are no examples of civilian officials taking command on the battlefield and winning battles."
The emperor's eyes narrowed and he stood up subconsciously.
What's more, he didn't really do nothing in Yongzhou these years.
In other words, he is willing to risk the lives of his entire family for this chance of a comeback.
Rong Xi immediately bowed his head and said solemnly: "If this fails, hundreds of members of my Rong family will be willing to obey His Majesty."
Mr. Rong Xiaohou is only in his early thirties now. Although he is a civil servant, his brows show the heroic spirit of the Rong family in a bloody battle.
Hearing this, Rong Xi looked confident: "Your Majesty, do you know the profound meaning of the red cherry gun that Marquis Pingyang kept in his palace?"
After all, if something goes wrong by handing over the power of border control to someone who has never led an army, the consequences will be disastrous.
The emperor didn't know why he suddenly raised the gun, but he still asked cooperatively: "What's the meaning?"
The emperor was stunned for a moment, but he still asked hesitantly: "Rong Aiqing, there are no swords in this battlefield. You are a scholar..."
Rong Xi said: "Your Majesty, there is a list hidden in that gun. The people on that list were all the nails that Marquis Pingyang hid in the Rong family army. Your Majesty must have sent someone to check that list.
"
"Your Majesty, I am willing to personally lead the troops to the northwest and drive the Western Vietnam out of our great abyss."
The palace servants took the order and immediately went to invite Mr. Rong Xiaohou into the palace.
He was young once, and even to this day, he still has great ambitions.
After saying that, he strode out.
Rong Xi nodded: "In the battle between my father and Xiyue, everyone thought it was my father's improper command. But who knew that it was all a conspiracy that Pingyang Marquis had formed with Xiyue in advance."
Now that Rong Xi said this himself, the old emperor suddenly looked at Rong Xi more seriously.
After all, he was also indirectly involved in what happened to the Rong Family Army back then.
Rong Xi then began to talk about the important point: "Your Majesty, how did these people get into our Rong family army back then? As long as we let the ministers go to the northwest border, within three days, I will definitely make those people obey."
However, before he could finish his words, he was cut off by Rong Xi: "Wei Chen comes from a family of military generals, and military strategy is a compulsory course. Your Highness, please rest assured."
Now that the Marquis of Pingyang has been captured and Gu Chenzhou has escaped, those people will not listen to him.
But how poisonous are the emperor's eyes?
He could tell at a glance that the light in the young man's eyes was brighter than ever before.
In the military, no matter what your status is, they only serve those who are capable.
Li Yuze looked worried: "Father, do you want to send a few more military advisors to Rong Xiaohou, what if..."
Otherwise, even if they are princes, they will not obey orders.
As soon as he entered the main hall, he bowed in front of the emperor and said, "I will be honored to see you, Your Majesty."
"When you mention this list, what does it have to do with how you convince the public?"
The old emperor was silent and said: "Rong Aiqing, even if I approve you, how do you plan to convince the public?"
"Quick, Xuan come in."
The news of Rong Xi's return to Beijing spread quickly.
When Li Huang got the news, he glanced at Mo Jingzhan in surprise: "Isn't there still two days to arrive? Did you send him the letter?"
Mo Jingzhan did not deny it: "The matter of the Rong Family Army is ultimately his Rong Family's grudge, and he needs to understand it with his own hands."
He had received the news of the revolt in West Vietnam two days earlier, and had someone pass a copy to Rong Xi in advance.
Others don't know Rong Xi's strength, but he knows it clearly.
