Chapter 1672: Chen Junqing was puzzled by the reaction of the generals
Bi Zaiyu smiled disdainfully and sat down directly, while Shen Tang half-squinted his eyes like an old monk in meditation, showing no intention of speaking.
Chen Junqing smiled proudly when he saw that he had "convinced" both of them, "Generals, please tell me what you think. Although Lord Shen is the commander-in-chief here, there is His Majesty above Lord Shen. You are not Lord Shen's private army. But Your Majesty, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court."
"I'm here on behalf of His Majesty, so naturally I can't let the soldiers have any complaints!"
After the words fell, there was silence in the big tent, and Chen Junqing paid no attention to him.
Chen Junqing frowned and glanced around, even winking a few times, until the corners of his eyes were dry, but still no one spoke.
"Generals, you are His Majesty's generals. If you have something to say, there is no need to be afraid of anyone.
My secret orders can go straight to the imperial court. No one can stop it, and no one dares to stop it. No matter what it is, I can make the decision for you.
Although I am a deputy envoy, I still have my own methods!"
This time, no one spoke, but now Chen Junqing was anxious.
After all, if a person performs a one-man show, he himself will feel embarrassed.
"General Chen, General Wang, didn't you say before that you were willing to go to war at any time?"
Wen Chao squinted his eyes and glanced at the person behind him, but saw that this person had an innocent look on his face, "Mr. Chen, it seems that you are also a scholar. We must always be reasonable when we speak, right?
Mr. Chen did come to my tent for a chat before and asked if he was willing to send troops. The general said that as long as the general and the commander-in-chief give orders, he would naturally send troops eagerly and would rather die without regrets!"
Having said this, he licked his face and smiled at Wen Chao, "Boss, this old master wronged me, I really said that!"
"roll!"
Wen Chao stared at this guy speechlessly, "Who are you calling me? I'll take care of you later!"
The general grinned, nodded and sat down, and another person also said, "You old guy, how can you accuse us unjustly?
You asked me before if I was willing to fight for His Majesty, and naturally I was willing, but His Majesty's boss was not here, so naturally we listened to the commander-in-chief and the general."
"What I said is wrong!"
Another guy with a black head and a fat face stood up and smiled awkwardly, "Well...this old master did say something to me before, but you brothers also know that I don't know Chinese characters. I can’t understand the babbling, but the commander-in-chief said that you have to be polite to Old Master Chen, so no matter what you say, I, the boss, just nod."
"Um...Old Master Chen, what exactly did you say that day?
You say it again, and I’ll just ask the brothers to explain it to me.”
Each of these made Chen Junqing stunned. These guys don't know what a hint is?
Don’t understand what coercion and inducement mean?
"You...are you not afraid of your majesty?"
"Second brother, what is this Yuzou? What kind of beating method is he..." This old black man's words directly made everyone burst into laughter. Even Shen Tang helplessly stroked his forehead. Old Master Chen met this group of people. It's really hard for people to do this.
"General Li, I promised you the position of General Zhongwu before. Don't you want it anymore?"
"Who doesn't want to be promoted? Didn't I agree to it at that time?
Didn't you hear clearly?
Don’t worry, I’m not that fool like Da Laohei. No fool would be willing to do something like this.”
"But...but..."
"But what?
If you can do it, then do it. If you really succeed, can I still treat you badly?
We are all men in the army, and if we succeed, whether you want a few women or money, I will certainly give it to you.
But what you mean is that it can’t be done?”
"Forget it, I don't really count on you. It's better to just follow the marshal and the general and chop off a few more heads."
Chen Junqing's eyes widened. He really didn't understand that he had chatted with them before, and they had agreed well?
Why are you regretting it now?
You have promised an official position, and the other party has also accepted it. Shouldn't you speak for yourself?
What are these things now?
Why do I always feel like I am not talking about the same thing as them?
It was obvious that he had a chance to win, but now the swordsmen met, and the people he regarded as his teammates all rebelled without hesitation, and even stabbed him back without hesitation.
Seeing the scene come to an end, Shen Tang stood up and patted Chen Junqing on the shoulder, "Sir Chen, a sergeant in the army, that is a human life, and there is no room for any negligence.
As a general, any order means that countless people will die.
For the sake of the imperial court, none of the men under my command are afraid of death, but if someone uses the lives of these men to exchange for their own promotion and wealth, let alone others, I will be the first one not to do so."
"As the deputy envoy, I will naturally respect you accordingly and give you corresponding rights.
However, you want to meddle in military affairs at will, but you are wishful thinking.
If you do your job well, you will naturally get a share of all the merits, but you have no idea what I am doing or planning, and you will seize power when you come..."
"Haha, Master Chen really thinks that I, Tang Shen, are young and weak and can be bullied?"
"From now on, Mr. Chen will be in the camp, and I will have all the military reports sent to Mr. Chen. Once Mr. Chen responds, I will not stop you. You can write whatever you want.
As for the rest, Mr. Chen doesn’t need to pay attention to it!”
"Wen Chao, our army is now in Lintao Prefecture. There are not only Jin soldiers but also Xia and Liao soldiers here. An attack on the camp may happen at any time.
I order you to mobilize all the soldiers and horses in the capital to guard Mr. Chen's safety day and night.
If Mr. Chen loses a hair on his body, I will ask you for it!"
"The general will obey your orders!"
"Shen Tang, how dare you! I am your Majesty's personal deputy envoy to Sichuan and Shaanxi Province. How do you have the qualifications to imprison me?"
You are treasonous! I will punish your Majesty and the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty for your crimes!"
"Master Chen, if you say one more thing, I will probably have to write the secret memorandum for His Majesty for Master Chen!"
"One day and night, elite soldiers from Xia and Liao attacked the camp. Soldiers and horses from all the camps gathered to encircle and suppress them. All the soldiers and horses that attacked the camp were wiped out. Hundreds of soldiers and horses from each department of our army were killed or injured. The deputy envoy, Mr. Chen Junqing, was accidentally hit by an arrow. Died! I ask your Majesty to punish you for your negligence!"
"Master Chen, guess whether His Majesty will believe it or not!"
"Perhaps Master Chen was worried about the situation of the troops and horses in various ministries, so he specially requested to go to Jishi Prefecture. However, on the way, he encountered a rebel army from the Jin Kingdom, and Master Chen was accidentally killed..."
"I wonder which rhetoric Mr. Chen likes?"
Although Shen Tang's words were spoken calmly, Chen Junqing's head was filled with cold sweat.
