When everyone saw Li Chen coming, they immediately saluted respectfully.
Wu Qingcang smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't expect that I still disturbed His Highness."
"It's not a disturbance."
Li Chen waved his hand and said, "I originally planned to come over and have a talk with you."
Li Chen came alone, followed only by Su Pingbei.
This detail made many generals feel a lot more comfortable.
This represents His Highness the Crown Prince's absolute trust in them.
Whether it is intentional or not, this feeling of being trusted is always good.
Li Chen looked at Wang Dazhao, lingering on that rough face for a moment, then glanced at the other generals, and then said: "Someone just asked who can guarantee that he will win. I answered, I can guarantee it."
Wang Dazhao blurted out: "Your Highness, why?"
"Wang Dazhao!"
Wu Qingcang turned around and shouted: "What's your tone and attitude? Are you tired of living?"
Others' words may not work, but in Wang Dazhao's ears, Wu Qingcang's words were no different from an imperial edict.
Wu Qingcang scolded, and Wang Dazhao immediately lowered his head and did not dare to say anything.
Li Chen laughed and said: "Wu Shuai, it's okay. It's normal for General Wang to ask this question. General Wang is not the only one who wants to ask this question. Other soldiers can't get the answer to this question."
Everyone will not be practical. People have their own ideas, and it is a good thing to dare to ask questions and dare to be true. If everything is decided by superiors, and they are just obedient without any ideas and opinions of their own, then how are people different from cows and horses?"
Li Chen's words touched the hearts of all the generals.
Immediately afterwards, Li Chen said: "Tonight, I will have a good chat with you, but this is not the place to talk after all. Go back to the city lord's palace. We are all men in the army. We don't talk about romance, and we only talk about state affairs.
."
After saying that, Li Chen turned to Wu Banshan and said: "General Wu, could you please ask the city lord's palace to prepare a few jars of good wine, and just get a few peanuts and the like as snacks. It doesn't need to be so elaborate. The conditions at Yueyangguan are now
We can’t be too refined, as long as we are refreshing enough.”
How could Wu Bishan refuse? He immediately responded: "I will obey your orders."
Soon, when the generals followed Li Chen back to the city lord's palace, Wu Banshan arranged for people to come back first to prepare the food and wine, and they were all ready.
After all, there is no need for any exquisite dishes, just a few cold dishes to go with the wine and a few jars of good wine. It is naturally easy to prepare.
Although the conditions at Yueyang Pass are difficult, they are not even as good as before. It doesn’t matter what you ask for, but after all, Yueyang Pass is located in the northwest, and the cold wind in winter can freeze people to death. Therefore, the soldiers all need strong wine to warm up, so good wine is absolutely essential.
A lot of.
Li Chen took his seat first, accompanied by Wu Qingcang and Wu Banshan, one on the left and one on the right.
When Wu Banshan was about to stand up and pour wine for Li Chen, Li Chen waved his hand and stopped his movement.
Under Wu Banshan's puzzled gaze, Li Chen opened the mud seal of the wine jar and was about to pour wine for Wu Qingcang while holding the wine jar.
This action startled Wu Qingcang. He instinctively removed his wine bowl and said to Li Chen: "Your Highness, you can't do this."
"It makes it impossible. How can it not be made possible?"
Li Chen asked: "Wu Shuai has stayed at the Ancestral Temple for more than twenty years for a single word of promise. He has endured many hardships and hardships. Why can't he use this bowl of wine today?"
As soon as these words came out, Wu Qingcang's breath trembled.
