Li Chengqian observed the situation and saw that Fang Jun's expression did not seem to be hypocritical. He was not dissatisfied with the fact that he had handed over all the military power in the East Palace to Li Jing. He felt relieved immediately, but also felt a little guilty.
When he was at his most unbearable and depressed, his position was almost abolished and he fell into the abyss, never to be recovered. But at that time when the government and the public were indifferent, Fang Jun stood resolutely, regardless of angering his father and disdainful of the cold eyes of the world. On the East Palace side, the support was clearly expressed.
He still remembered that at that time, he was uneasy and trembling all day long. At night, he and the Crown Princess hugged each other and cried in the East Palace, fearing that after dawn, his father's imperial edict to abolish the crown prince would come, and perhaps a glass of poisonous wine would arrive with him. , or three feet of white silk...
Being in constant panic all day long.
It was precisely after experiencing such difficult days that he knew how to cherish the current hard-won situation. When a courtier like Fang Jun, who was so brilliant and talented, publicly expressed his support for him as the prince, it was like a sudden sudden change in the cloudy weather. A warm sun came down after the rain cleared and the clouds dispersed, letting him know that he, the prince, was not despised by everyone and was good-for-nothing. He felt warm and happy in his heart, which words cannot describe in words.
From then on, he had placed great trust in Fang Jun, obeyed his advice, and secretly vowed never to betray him in order to repay Fang Jun's kindness in times of crisis.
Not to mention the fact that they were able to reverse the situation at the hands of the Guanlong rebels and turn defeat into victory was all thanks to Fang Jun...
In Li Chengqian's heart, there were countless civil servants and generals in the court, but none of them had a higher status than Fang Jun.
But in order to deal with the current crisis, he cannot just act emotionally. In terms of charging into the battle, Fang Jun may be the bravest of the three armies and unstoppable, but now he needs to strategize and deploy his troops, and his opponent is Li Ji, the invincible "First Order" who has made great achievements. "God of the Second Army", only Li Jing can take on the important role.
Fortunately, Fang Jun is still open-minded and not good at taking power, so he did not feel dissatisfied. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to be the prince...
…
Liu Ji watched the interaction between the prince and Fang Jun. He was inevitably a little disappointed when he saw that the prince was full of apologies and that Fang Jun was free and generous and did not feel embarrassed because Li Jing was in charge of the military power of the East Palace and took full responsibility. He firmly supports the prince and does not hesitate to take huge risks for this, but obviously he is still far behind Fang Jun. If he wants to surpass Fang Jun's status in the heart of the prince, he has a long way to go...
However, there is no need to be discouraged. As long as the prince successfully ascends the throne and the powerful families from Shandong and Jiangnan enter the court, he, a servant outside the influence of the two powerful families, will gradually be recognized and reused by the prince. Over time, he may not be able to achieve what Du Ruhui did. , Fang Xuanling’s achievements.
*****
When Fang Jun left the city from Xuanwu Gate, drizzle began to fall in the sky, and the fine rainwater fell down in strands, hitting his face with a refreshing cooling effect.
Looking back at the tall tower of Xuanwu Gate with its lights brightly lit, and thinking that it was rare for the prince to be tough and courageous on the front line, but in the end it would inevitably turn into a futile effort, I couldn't help but sigh and said, "Time is also destiny."
Although His Royal Highness the Prince, who is famous in history, is not amazingly talented, he is not as absurd, cowardly and paranoid as the history books exaggerate. He is just sandwiched between a rare and peerless emperor father and a group of people. The outstanding brothers are just a little mediocre.
In fact, for the emperor, mediocrity is not necessarily a shortcoming. On the contrary, almost all the subjugated kings in history who were angry and resentful and carried out tyranny were all smart, amazing and brilliant. Some people always find it difficult to put their own
Use wisdom in serious places...
Of course, if Fang Jun lived in the prosperous Tang Dynasty and only wanted to be a high official and rich in the world, he only had to hold on to Li Er's thigh and follow suit, and place a bet with Li Zhi in advance. Naturally, his life would go smoothly and his glory would increase.
Live in peace and enjoy wealth.
But he always feels a bit unwilling in his heart, and he prides himself on being a person with high aspirations...
Now that we have come to this era, now that we have the power now, we don't want to live in a muddle for the rest of our lives. In the future, the Tang Dynasty will still have clans and clans running rampant, and the military will be a disaster, dragging the dynasty into the abyss at its peak, and eventually falling apart.
, fell apart, making every descendant of China regret in future generations.
His Majesty Li Er has realized that the clan is the root of the country's disaster, and has begun to subtly promote the strategy of weakening the clan. However, he relies on the clan to seize the world and conquer the world. He is the largest clan in the world. There are naturally too many constraints in the implementation of various policies.
, walking with difficulty.
If he wanted to suppress powerful families, support poor families, bring military and political power back to the central government, and make government orders enforceable throughout the world, Fang Jun could only choose Li Chengqian, who had a gentle personality.
Within thirty years, it may be possible to suppress the power of the clan to the lowest level without shaking the foundation of the empire, turning it from a "family" with real power to a "noble family" with only a false name and no real power...
However, the gangsters in Guanlong Gate were so bold that a mutiny shattered all plans.
Up to now, the Guanlong clan is still alive, the families in Hedong have suffered heavy losses, and the most powerful clans in the world have suffered heavy losses. This was originally in line with the national policy formulated by His Majesty Li Er, even though the clans of Shandong and Jiangnan entered the court to fill the gap.
The power gap left by Guan Long was not easy, but it was not easy to build up the momentum that Guan Long had back then.
This is a good opportunity for the central government to gather power and further weaken the clan.
However, people are not saints, and the interests of the empire are always lower than their own interests. No matter how wise a person is, he will make a fool of himself in a certain matter or at a certain moment, regardless of whether he will go his own way or miss a good situation...
Travelers are not omnipotent. Apart from watching all this happen, Fang Jun is making small moves in private. He can only go with the general trend. If he has the thought of using the mantis as a chariot, he is afraid that he will be crushed into powder in an instant and his body will not be left.
The soldiers in front of the camp gate had already seen their commander returning from Xuanwu Gate. They quickly moved away the horses and Luzhai placed in front of the camp. Fang Jun, surrounded by his own soldiers, rode straight in and arrived at the Chinese army tent.
After entering the account, he washed his hands and face, took off his cloak, sat down at the desk with a cup of hot tea, took a sip, and ordered: "Calling the lieutenants and generals here, I have a military order to issue."
Then he got up and went to the map hanging on the wall to check the situation.
"Here!"
The personal soldiers took the order and sent several people to go to various places in the camp to convey the general's order.
In less than half a cup of tea, military lieutenants and generals arrived one after another. The tents were filled with clanging leaves. Everyone stood in awe, looking at Fang Jun, who was standing in front of the map with his hands behind his hands, waiting for him to give orders.
Fang Junzai carefully observed the map, sketched out the current positions of each army with a pen, and deduced the possible movements of each army. Then he turned around, looked around everyone, and said with bright eyes: "Actually,
There is nothing to arrange. You are all famous generals in hundreds of battles. Naturally, you should know what the enemy should pay attention to at the moment. I don’t want to belabor it. As long as the troops are not on guard at the moment, all the scouts will be released. From now on, I want to know everything around Chang’an.
For any movement of more than ten people from each army, the battle report must be submitted to the commander's desk in a timely manner, can this be done?"
Speaking of the end, his voice was stern and he looked at Wang Fangyi, who was now responsible for commanding all the scouts of Youtun Guard...
Wang Fangyi's thin body was high with his chest and belly, his face was full of excitement, and he said with great energy: "I will obey the general's order!"
As the saying goes, "Information comes first before the soldiers and horses are moved." The ability of the scouts in the army largely represents the combat power of the army. An invincible and invincible army must have an outstanding scout team. Wang Fangyi
My heart is full of excitement. As long as I can lead my scouts to perform well in this war, I will definitely gain the recognition of the commander-in-chief, become a capable general under the commander-in-chief, and be promoted and reused.
In the past, most of the commander-in-chief's capable officers are now guarding one side, such as Liu Rengui, Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui, Pei Xingjian... Just think about Wang Fangyi, a guy who once climbed the ice and snow in the Western Regions and saw no future, one day he will be among these.
Among the rising stars in the military, there is a lot of pride and excitement.
Fang Jun was very satisfied with Wang Fangyi's condition, nodded slightly, and then clapped his hands to encourage morale: "Keep your eyes wide open. When the prince leaves the city tomorrow, if any party dares to take any treacherous and unethical measures, you must fight bravely and take action."
Annihilate! Don’t worry about Zuo Wuwei’s reputation. They are just humiliating the Goguryeo barbarians in Liaodong. The British army under the public account is said to be hundreds of thousands, but it is definitely not that many. They are all a ragtag group. No one is our opponent!"
The discipline of the army is cultivated, but the morale is cultivated. An army that fights in all directions and is invincible has in its bones the domineering and unruly attitude of looking down on the world and being the only one. It is confident in facing any strong enemy.
hundred times.
He believed that the army he had built possessed such characteristics that it had the confidence and ambition to defeat any enemy it faced.
"Must win!"
The generals in the tent responded loudly and raised their arms, and their morale rose to a strong peak in an instant.
What about Zuo Wuwei?
What about the British public?
I fought all over the world and fought in all directions. Even the powerful armies of the time such as Turks, Xue Yantuo, Tuyuhun and Dashi were all defeated one by one. Cheng Yaojin and Li Ji had another egg?
Our right guard is an elite player!
Fang Jun stepped forward and patted the shoulders of his generals one by one, and said with a smile: "Relax a little, as long as you have this spirit. It is said that arrogant soldiers will be defeated, but our Youtun Guards have always won battles, why can't we be proud?"
?We are not only proud, but also arrogant! We will all watch the soldiers under our command, perform their duties and perform their duties."
"Here!"
The generals accepted the order with a bang and retreated one after another.
Fang Jun returned to the desk and sat down. He took a sip from the tea cup and found that the tea was already lukewarm. He was about to ask his soldiers to make a pot of strong tea. The soldiers had already entered and reported: "Commander Qi, Princess Changle
