Chapter 900: Loyalty and Filial Piety

If Zhou Shizhong came to Nan'an in person without the restraint of the court, Shen Yi would not even think about it, he would immediately pick up the knife and chop this guy down.

Once Zhou Shizhong died, there was no need for Li Mu to take risks in Yandu, because the two countries would inevitably fall out at that time, and it would be meaningless for him to go to Yandu again.

Moreover, the emperor also wanted to see this situation, so if Shen Yi did this, the emperor would not punish him. However, the princes in the temple and the court laws would not spare him. When the time comes, he would lose his official status and harm his family.

Small things are big things.

Even the emperor may not be able to protect him.

Therefore, he could only watch Li Mu go north, but there was nothing he could do.

Li Mu's trip to the north was a bit dangerous, because Shen Yi knew very well that Li Mu was going to offend the Qi people.

Most of the Qi people and the court would not dare to kill him, but as long as he leaves Yandu, the radical elements among the Qi people, especially the radicals among Zhu Li, will definitely kill him!

Therefore, Shen Yi warned Li Mu not to leave Yandu if the situation was not right.

The so-called situation is not quite right, simply means that the Northern Qi court did not send anyone to escort him, or that it did not send many people to escort him. In that case, he would definitely die if he left Yandu.

After watching Li Mu's ship go away from the Huaihe River, Zhang Jian was silent for a while and said, "I don't know if this war can end here."

Few people in the court knew about Li Mu's intention to go to Yandu. The ministers, including the five prime ministers Zhongshu, really thought that Li Mu was going to negotiate a peace. They even drafted a peace negotiation charter and handed it to the emperor.

Approval.

No one knew that the peace treaty regulations drawn up by Zhongshu were thrown aside as soon as they entered the Manlu Palace, and the emperor never even read them.

Now, I am afraid that only the emperor, Shen Yi, Li Mu, Gao Ming and a few people from the inner guard know Li Mu's true intention of going there.

Therefore, Zhang Jian was naturally kept in the dark.

He offered Li Mu a glass of wine yesterday because he felt that Li Mu, with his talent and talent, would be in danger if he went deep into the enemy's hinterland.

Mr. Shen shook his head slightly and did not answer the question directly. Instead, he said slowly: "I'm afraid it's not that easy."

Zhang Jian nodded and said: "The people of Qi have suffered great losses at the hands of Zi Heng for more than a year. It is estimated that it will be difficult for them to swallow this breath. Even if the war ceases, I am afraid it will only be a temporary truce.

"

"Sooner or later there will be a battle."

Mr. Shen shook his head again and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid it won't be necessary in the future."

Zhang Jian glanced at Shen Yi thoughtfully, and then at the ship approaching the north shore. He frowned slightly, as if he wanted to understand something.

However, he hesitated for a moment and said nothing. He turned around and patted Shen Yi on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "That's it. The soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it. Don't think about anything else. Let's go, brothers and sisters, go have a drink."

."

Master Shen rolled his eyes at the guy: "You want me to cover up the water?"

Zhang Fuzun laughed.

"This is why those who are able work hard!"

………………

The day after Li Mu left Dachen territory, Shen Yi convened a meeting of more than a thousand generals under his command at Xiangshui Camp.

At this time, the Huai'an army already numbered 30,000 people and had been organized into thirty thousand-household camps. Therefore, there were nearly forty generals attending the meeting this time.

The purpose of Shen Yi's meeting with them was very simple, mainly to convey his opinions to them.

That is, no matter how the peace talks are conducted at the court level, Huai'an's military training cannot be slackened, let alone stopped, and it must be prepared for war at any time.

After half of the training, Mr. Shen stood at the front and looked at the thousands of households under his hands. He coughed and said, "In addition to daily training, there is one more thing that Shen wants to convey to you."

He lowered his eyebrows slightly and said slowly: "Two days ago, I received a document from the imperial court. The imperial court has appointed General Xiao as the commander-in-chief of the Coastal Capital Division. At the same time, General Xiao was asked to recruit new troops in the southeast and fill in the Coastal Capital Division.

."

Having said this, Shen Yi paused and continued: "And our army in Huai'an will be reorganized into the Huai'an Army and will no longer return to the southeast to garrison local guards."

He looked at everyone and said slowly: "I know that among all of you, there are still people who miss their hometown and don't really want to stay and fight with the Qi people."

"Originally, the imperial court issued an order, and there is no way around this matter. However, you are all old brothers who have been with me for a long time. I can come forward to mediate on your behalf."

"You listened carefully."

Mr. Shen took a deep breath and said slowly: "From today to one month later, if anyone in Huai'an's army has less than a thousand households and wants to be transferred back to the local guard station, he can report it to the respective thousand households, and you will be able to do so."

If the household is unified and sent to me, I will personally go to the Ministry of War to mediate the matter with you and transfer you back to your original posts."

There were thousands of people here, and most of them had credited to Shen Yi. Unless someone went crazy, few people were willing to go back to the place, so no one answered. After a while, there was only one who looked like he was only 23 or 24 years old.

Qianhu hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and stood up.

He clasped his fists at Shen Yi and was about to speak when Xue Wei on the side kicked him back into the team and glared at the young Qianhu.

This Qianhu was the Qianhu under Xue Wei. After being kicked, he shrank back and did not dare to speak.

Shen Yi frowned: "Xue Wei, what are you doing!"

Xue Wei immediately clasped his fists, lowered his head and said, "Mr. Shen, this kid has lost his mind and gone crazy. I will talk to him carefully later and he will repent."

Shen Yi glanced at this guy and knew that Xue Wei didn't want his subordinates to destroy their future, but he still walked up to the young Qianhu, patted his shoulder, and said: "If I remember correctly, you are the original

Wenzhou Guard Qianhu Lu Yuan, do you want to return to the local health center?"

Lu Qianhu glanced at Xue Wei cautiously, then lowered his head and said: "Mr. Shen, my subordinate is from Wenzhou Prefecture. He still has an old mother in Wenzhou Prefecture, but he is not married. He is afraid that his mother will not be able to live alone, so he wants to

To be transferred back..."

He suddenly looked up and saw Xue Wei's somewhat angry expression.

"Subordinate...Subordinate, think about it again..."

Shen Yi was silent for a while, exhaled a breath, and said, "Just go back to Wenzhou."

Lu Yuan said "Ah", lowered his head, clenched his hands into fists, and his nails almost penetrated into his flesh.

Although the generals of the Huai'an Army are generally young, he must have made a lot of contributions since he was able to manage a thousand households at this age and was familiar with Xue Wei.

At this time, Shen Yi's efforts in the Huai'an Army were all in vain.

He knelt on the ground with a plop, his eyes weeping: "Subordinate, I am ashamed to be cultivated by Duke Shen..."

"Loyalty and filial piety cannot have both worlds."

Shen Yi stretched out his hand to help him up, patted his shoulder and said: "I'm not driving you away. I'll give you a month's leave. You can ride back to Wenzhou to visit your old mother. You will make a decision after you return to Wenzhou. If

When you come back, you will still be a member of the Huai'an Army. If you don't come back, I will go to the Ministry of War on your behalf and let you go to Wenzhou and serve as a member of the Qianhu Army."

"I'll go back this time to meet my mother and see if we can work out a way to balance loyalty and filial piety."

Lu Yuan was so happy that he knelt down and kowtowed to Shen Yi.

Mr. Shen looked around at the generals present. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "For those generals here who intend to return to the southeast, I will also give you a chance to go home and have a look. However, we have agreed that at most 40% of the generals here will be able to return to the southeast at the same time."

Thousands of households left the Huai'an Army and returned to their hometown to visit relatives."

"The training in the military cannot be left behind."

Everyone clasped their fists at Shen Yi again: "Thank you very much, Mr. Shen. I will obey your orders!"

In fact, not many generals left the Huai'an Army. After all, all of them were forced to join the army to suppress Japanese invaders, and they were hardly the only sons in the family.

In this way, Master Shen relied on his absolute personal prestige to successfully complete their transformation from the coastal capital to the Huai'an army.

After the meeting, Xue Wei immediately found Lu Yuan, grabbed him by the collar and cursed him loudly.

"You guy! If it weren't for Mr. Shen, you might not even be able to be a team deputy now! Now that Mr. Shen is employing people, you want to go back to your hometown to enjoy the blessings of being a member of a thousand households?!"

He cursed angrily: "Follow Mr. Shen and you will have a bright future. Look at your short-sighted virtue!"

Lu Yuan was said to have no temper. He lowered his hands and said cautiously: "General Xue, that's not what I meant. General Xue..."

Before he could continue talking, Jiang Sheng had already ran over.

"General Xue, my young master invites you to come over and discuss matters."

Xue Wei nodded, indicating that he understood, and then as he walked towards Shen Yi's handsome tent, he turned back and cursed: "If you go back to Wenzhou Mansion, I, Xue Da, will never recognize you as my brother again!"

After that, he walked towards the handsome tent.

In the commander's tent, several commander-level generals had arrived, and Mr. Shen coughed.

"Everyone, I have to go back to Jiankang soon."

He looked around at the crowd.

"All matters in Huai'an will be entrusted to you."
