Li Shan's face was a little stiff. Although he felt a little guilty, he still felt very unhappy. Ma Zhou was holding back his anger and insisted on causing trouble for me!
Ma Zhou had a cynical expression on his face, "Yes, I just want to cause trouble for you, who told you to do nothing!"
There is no reason, no reason, just throw me to Chang He, and then I watch you lead a group of people to make great achievements... Among the acquaintances from back then, Su Dingfang, Wang Junhao, and Zhou Erlang have all been sealed.
It is said that Qi Laosan and Fan Shiyi may be knighted this time, and the old man Ling Jing is already a member of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
And what about yourself?!
I didn’t get anything, and I was laughed at!
"Okay, okay, okay!" Li Shan gritted his teeth and said three good things, "Anyway, if you remember it, you will be rewarded in the future!"
When Ma Zhou came over, Ma Zhou, who was already broken, didn't care, but then he straightened his clothes and said seriously: "I wonder if mother is still okay."
Li Shan also sat upright and said, "I'm in good health, but I'm just thinking about Brother Bin Wang. He moved into a new house some time ago. My aunt placed him in a small courtyard in the backyard. He doesn't leave the house on weekdays. Do you have any letters from Brother Bin Wang?"
"Yeah." Ma Zhou took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it over, sighing: "This is the end of my unfilial piety, this is my end of my unfilial piety..."
To this day, few people in Moon Lake know the identity of the middle-aged woman. Ma Zhou's mother always thought that her son was still far away in Longyou Road... She didn't even know that her son had parted ways with Li Shan publicly.
"There are big and small filial piety." Li Shan said warmly: "Brother King Bin will make great contributions and make a name for himself in the annals of history. Only then will he be considered a great filial piety."
A bitter smile appeared on Ma Zhou's face, "Thank you for your good words."
"It's definitely not a comfort." Li Shan said in a low voice: "Before this expedition, I had a secret meeting with His Highness the King of Qin to talk about all the affairs of King Bin."
Ma Zhou was shocked, "King Qin knows someone?"
"That's right." Li Shan said in a more serious tone: "Brother Bin Wang should know the importance of Xuanwu Sect."
Ma Zhou nodded slowly, "Although the Changlin Army is stationed in the Forbidden Garden to the north of the East Palace, there are many buildings in the East Palace and the roads are narrow. If there is an incident in the East Palace, Xuanwu Gate must be taken first."
"Yes." Li Shan analyzed: "Although there are Luo Yi and Li Gaoqian, Chai Shao is ordered to control the Beiya Imperial Army."
"The most important thing is that the main force of the Beiya Imperial Army is deployed in the imperial city, not in the Taiji Palace. Once the Xuanwu Gate is opened, Changlin's army can enter the Taiji Palace..."
"Once Your Majesty and King Qin are controlled, I'm afraid Chai Shao won't resist." Ma Zhou added: "Princess Pingyang and his wife will not risk their lives for this. Plus Pei Ji and Pei Shiju, even if the prince does not immediately ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, as long as
If you kill the King of Qin, then the situation will be over."
"If this is the case, then I will have no choice but to flee to the end of the world." Li Shan said with a bitter smile: "Ling Gong also mentioned this matter today, and the King of Qin wants to leave the palace."
Ma Zhou tilted his head and thought for a while, "That should be the case, but there shouldn't be any rash moves in the East Palace in the short term."
Li Shan raised his eyebrows, "Why?"
"After the great victory in Jingzhou, Huairen garrisoned Baiquan County for more than three months. It was difficult to advance. The Manchu Dynasty asserted that it would be difficult to win quickly." Ma Zhou explained: "At that time, Luo Yi had already returned to Chang'an."
"It is difficult to win quickly..." Li Shan murmured a few words, "If Liang Luoren can hold on to Guyuan and Liang Jun does not lose Xiaoguan... it may not take that long until April or May this year."
Ma Zhou smiled and said: "Although the Turks have lost several Khans at the hands of Huairen and are now trapped in internal strife, I am afraid they will not sit back and watch the Liang divisions be expelled."
Li Shan nodded, "Especially Ashina She'er, he is quite strategic and has a long-term vision."
"So in those three months, there were quite a lot of changes within the Changlin Army." Ma Zhou whispered: "The strength of the troops has not increased or decreased, but a lot of military leaders have been changed."
Li Shan blurted out, "Heavenly Festival Army?"
"It's very possible." Ma Zhou said cheerfully: "I don't know who came up with the clever plan!"
"It's probably Pei Shiju..." Li Shan sighed. He was indeed a famous official in the Three Dynasties. Such a simple and effective strategy is really not something ordinary people can think of.
Why did the Tiance Mansion disdain the Changlin Army before? Li Shimin was wary of the Changlin Army quickly passing through the Xuanwu Gate to control the Taiji Palace, but he was very disdainful of the Changlin Army's combat power.
Li Keshi once told Li Shan that in the Tiance Mansion, the King of Qin and the generals' bodyguards gathered together. Although there were only a few hundred, they were enough to defeat the Changlin army of three thousand.
There are many factors that affect the combat effectiveness of an army, but when all aspects of equipment and logistics are in place, on the current battlefields of Forbidden Garden and Taiji Palace, the command ability and combat effectiveness of grassroots generals will be a very important factor.
.
Luo Yi transferred the elites of the Tianjie Army to the Changlin Army. It was impossible to replace all of them, but it was possible to just replace the military leaders. Although the Changlin Army could not be reborn, its combat strength increased by more than one step.
The most important thing is that once the army is raised, Luo Yi can calmly command Changlin's army through the help of these grassroots generals.
Li Shan stayed for a while and asked, "No one knows?"
"There is no evidence." Ma Zhou showed his hands, "Furthermore, the Changlin Army belongs to the East Palace, so there is no need to report to the Ministry of War and the Sixteenth Guards to change the army leader."
After a pause, Ma Zhou added: "But after the military report of the Yuanzhou War came to Beijing, it stopped."
Li Shan suddenly realized, "That's why you said just now that there will be no rash action in the East Palace in the short term."
"Well, I've looked at it carefully. There are batches every half month, and they haven't stopped in the first month. But on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the good news came to Beijing, and it stopped the next day." Ma Zhou said with a smile: "The good news came that day, and Pei Shiju must have been disappointed.
tight."
Li Shan was a little uneasy and whispered: "Today Duke Ling mentioned that His Highness the King of Qin intends to leave the palace."
"It makes sense." Ma Zhou nodded, "Once the East Palace takes action, Chengqian Palace will bear the brunt."
Ma Zhou immediately grinned, "The key is still the Changlin Army... I don't know how your Majesty thought about it. He couldn't have forgotten it, right?"
"How is that possible!" Li Shan sneered, and Li Yuan would never forget it no matter how wet his mind was.
"Luo Yi sent elite soldiers into the Changlin Army. Although there is no proof, what if His Highness the King of Qin is asked to find someone to expose him?"
"No." Li Shan immediately shook his head and analyzed it carefully: "After the battle at Tiantai Mountain, His Majesty's mind changed drastically. He rejected the East Palace and accepted the King of Qin, but he did not make any plans to change the throne... The prince has been in charge of the East Palace for many years and should not be underestimated.
"
"It is true that one should not act rashly to shake the foundation of the country." Ma Zhou was a very smart man. "If the sage ordered the dismantling of the Changlin Army, the prince would definitely take action."
"Yeah." Li Shan had some rough plans in mind and couldn't help but smile: "I have been back in Beijing for half a month, and my eyes are full of fog. Today, I have received some advice from my guest, Brother Wang. Once the fog has cleared, I will definitely report it to Your Highness."
