As for General Zhaoxian of the auxiliary country and General Sun Sheng of the Wei country, there are no stories of ups and downs. The life experiences of the two people are similar. Their fathers were both the earliest confidants who were with the old emperor Liu Ye.
In an accident, they died for the country. In order to express their gratitude, Liu Ye let them inherit their father's position.
However, it is worth mentioning that these two people are not the kind of second-generation ancestors who bully men and women by waiting for death. Both of them have practiced martial arts well. Even if Zhao Er fights with any of these two people, it will only
I'm afraid the chance of winning will not be more than 30%. Having said that, if these two people were useless, Liu Ling would not invite them over.
Of these two men, Zhaoxian was only twenty-one years old. He was good at using a square-shaped halberd, and his style was brave and fearless. He was quite like the Wen Hou Lu Fengxian during the Three Kingdoms period. He was once the commander of the imperial army, but later he was dissatisfied with the prince's behavior.
As a result of resigning due to illness and staying at home.
Sun Sheng is twenty-six years old this year, eight feet tall, broad-shouldered and round-waisted. He is good at wielding a spear and possesses courage that no man can match. He and Zhaoxian have a very good relationship in private, so when Zhaoxian resigned and returned home
, as the deputy commander of the Forbidden Army, he also resigned from his post.
Because Liu Ye loved these two young generals very much, the prince did not dare to be too presumptuous. Later, when Emperor Xiao ascended the throne, these two men were re-appointed as the chief and deputy commanders of the Forbidden Army.
Seeing that all the people he had invited had arrived, Liu Ling ordered the banquet to be arranged. Several maids arranged it, and soon a table of sumptuous meals was neatly placed. Liu Ling knew the preferences of these people, so the meal was nothing special.
The exquisite delicacies, some are just big fish and meat, and big bowls of wine.
The guests and the host sat down, Liu Ling picked up the wine glass and said: "You must be well aware of the purpose of inviting you here today. We don't have to beat around the bush. I just want to say that I am willing to talk to you.
I went to the south to kill the enemy, so I drank this glass of wine!"
After speaking, Liu Ling raised his neck and drank a large bowl of wine in one gulp.
Seeing that he had done it, everyone present was unambiguous and no one refused. They all stood up and picked up their wine bowls and drank heavily. Seeing that everyone was determined, Liu Ling suddenly felt happy. He waved his hand and said: "Pour the wine!"
"Today, there is no need to be restrained. You can drink as much as you can. Even if you fall drunk under the table, I will not laugh at you. But there is only one thing. When the king's school is called tomorrow, if anyone comes due to drunkenness, then don't
It’s my fault that my king’s military law is ruthless.”
Everyone knew Liu Ling's temperament and laughed heartily.
Cheng Yihou said: "That's easy to say. Now that I've had this meal of wine, I won't go home. I'll go to the school grounds to sleep in the afternoon. I'll make sure I don't miss the prince's order tomorrow!"
Liu Mao, Marquis of Huting, laughed and said, "Marquis Sanjiang, this is not like your style."
Cheng Yihou said: "Why doesn't it look like that?"
Liu Mao laughed and said: "Sanjiang Hou is famous all over the world for his Qinggong. Why do you want to make the plan to fly first today?"
Cheng Yihou was very familiar with him, so naturally he would not be offended by his words. He pointed at Liu Mao and laughed and scolded: "You burrowing rat, you are also making fun of me today. If you don't accept it, let's compare our drinking capacity first."
?”
Liu Mao smiled and said: "In front of the prince, is it your turn to be arrogant?"
He picked up the wine bowl and said: "Your Majesty, I am here to offer you a bowl. I wish your Majesty success and success!"
Liu Ling picked up the bowl of wine and said: "As long as we work together, the two hundred thousand horses in the next week will be nothing. If we all drink this bowl of wine together, we will win the battle and we will succeed!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drank together, laughing loudly.
Prince Zhongyi Banjin is only about forty years old now, but he has three strands of long beard and a rather gentle face, which makes him look like a fairy. Just looking at this man
With his appearance, who would have thought that he grew up eating human flesh? However, although this man was granted the title of general, he had not forgotten his roots. He still dressed like a Taoist priest on weekdays.
It is said that the current Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain invited him back to Longhu Mountain several times, but he rejected them all. He said to the disciples of Longhu Mountain who came to invite him: "I am a wild man in the mountains, smelling of corpses, and I went to Bao'an."
Watching will only tarnish the pure name of Longhu Mountain. But although I will not return to Longhu Mountain, I am still a disciple of Master Zhang. If you go back and tell the current Heavenly Master, I will definitely burn a stick of incense to Master’s spiritual place sooner or later and sincerely
Pay homage."
The little Taoist priest will tell Zhang Tianshi what he said when he returns home. Zhang Tianshi chuckles and says: "The Northern Han Dynasty is a barren land. I wanted to invite him to come here to escape from the world and practice. But he thought I was worried that he wanted to steal the title of Tianshi. He thought I wanted to
Just trick him into coming, that's all. If you don't practice cultivation in your life, just let him go."
Although he is a Taoist priest, he does not need to be taboo. He drinks wine and eats meat as he pleases, and he has slept with countless women.
He cupped his fists and said to Liu Ling: "Your Majesty, this time you lead the troops south. According to General Mo, the biggest problem is not the 200,000 troops in the coming week."
Liu Ling smiled and asked: "What do you think of the loyal and righteous minister?"
Wang Banjin laughed at himself and said: "The prince knows very well that it is naturally the current commander of the Fuyuan Army, An Heng. If this person is not removed, the Fuyuan Army will not be able to recover smoothly. But this person has been operating in the south for two years.
The current generals of the Yuan Army are almost all his cronies, so I'm afraid it's hard to make a move. If the prince is so determined, the general will go south tonight to ensure that when the prince leads the troops to Yingzhou, the general will carry the head of the thief.
Looking forward to it!”
Liu Ling waved his hand and said: "Killing An Heng is easy. It depends on how to kill and when is the best time to kill. Let's keep this man for now. His life is still of great use to me."
Liu Mao also said: "But Your Majesty, if we wait for Your Majesty to lead the army to Yingzhou, I don't know what tricks An Heng will come up with to make things difficult. Wouldn't it be unfair if we ruin a big event for him?"
He cupped his fists and said, "If the prince is worried, I will go with Zhongyihou tonight. With the two of us going together, we will definitely be able to behead that thief."
Liu Ling smiled and said: "You two, then An Heng must have thought that it was me who led the troops south. If he had no plan, he would really be a fool. What is the use of such a person? If he was prepared, you two would take risks again. If
It's not worth it if anything goes wrong. An Heng must be killed, don't worry, the day this king arrives in Yingzhou will be the day his head falls to the ground."
Chen Yuanshan, the commander of the Gyeonggi Camp, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, there is something unknown about us."
Liu Ling said: "But it doesn't matter. If you have any questions during today's meal, just ask."
Chen Yuanshan said: "Your Majesty, the imperial army is just a mere embroidered pillow, and it is useless. The garrison is even weaker. Why don't we deploy all the men and horses from our Gyeonggi camp?"
This issue is also of concern to several other people. After all, this time they went south with Liu Ling, and they put their own wealth and lives on the line. The soldiers under them are elite, and they have enough confidence. If they are all idiots, they
Their confidence will be greatly reduced. The combat effectiveness of the Gyeonggi Camp is obvious to all. Compared with the soldiers of the Imperial Army and the garrison, it is obviously more than one level behind.
After hearing Chen Yuanshan's question, everyone looked at Liu Ling.
Liu Ling put down his wine glass and said: "Yuanshan, do you think I don't want to take the entire Gyeonggi camp south? Think about it, who are the many people in the garrison? They are all duplicitous scum. If we rely on those people to protect the capital,
, if the protection is not complete, they will be incited to do something. These people must be dragged to the battlefield and let them experience the experience of blood and fire before they can become talents. How can they become a sharp sword that can cut through gold and jade without experiencing a beating?
?”
"As for the Forbidden Army, I took away half and left half. The Forbidden Army is actually good. In terms of quality, it is not necessarily inferior to the men and horses in the Gyeonggi Camp. It just lacks actual combat. I took half of it this time for the purpose of training. To put it bluntly,
The capital city must be guarded by loyal and elite troops, so I can only take away at most ten thousand men from the Gyeonggi camp."
Liu Ling said: "I know what you are thinking. If you go south with the elite Gyeonggi camp, you will have more confidence. If you go south with the garrison, you will inevitably lack confidence. But what I want to say is,
You must know this sentence. If a soldier is cowardly, he will be cowardly in the whole group! No matter how stubborn or low morale the soldiers are, as long as you leaders set an example and are brave and not afraid of death, I don't believe that you can't lead an iron-blooded army.
division!"
Chen Yuanshan said sincerely: "Your Majesty is right, there are soldiers according to the generals you have. When your Majesty was in the south, the Fuyuan Army was so powerful. Now that An Heng has become the commander, he is doing well."
A great lion has turned into a turtle!"
Liu Ling said: "It's exactly like this, what kind of generals lead what kind of soldiers. I remember that in the previous dynasty, there was a famous general named Li Yunlong. He was from a rough background and illiterate. But with a bloody spirit, he was fierce and unstoppable.
The fear of death turned a team of farmers into a mighty and victorious army! Li Yunlong once said a famous saying, he said that a team must have a soul, and this soul is the general! As a general,
You must have the courage to draw your sword in the face of even the most powerful enemy! In this way, your soldiers will develop the character of a lion and a hungry wolf and move forward bravely! This is an example that you should all remember."
After saying that, Liu Ling sighed secretly in his heart, director and author of Liangjian, don't blame Liu Ling and me for talking nonsense.
Everyone nodded while doing this, but everyone was surprised. In the previous dynasty? Why don’t you remember that there was a famous general named Li Yunlong in the previous dynasty?
How do they know who Li Yunlong is? However, several of them thought that since the prince said that there was such a hot-blooded and famous general in the previous dynasty, then of course there was. It seems that we are still ignorant and ashamed.
Just as he was talking, Zhou Yangong, who had been waiting outside for a long time, shouted at the top of his voice: "The scholar has something to say, I wonder if the prince will give him a chance!"
Everyone looked back and recognized that this person was Duke Yan of Zhou who was transferred to the Military Aircraft Department by His Majesty the Emperor and was known as the Prime Minister of the People. Everyone knew that Duke Yan of Zhou was recommended by Liu Ling, so it was not surprising that he was here at this time.
Liu Ling smiled and cursed: "Come in and talk, why are you standing outside howling!"
Zhou Yangong smiled and trotted into the living room holding up his scholar's robe.
When he came in, Liu Ling said: "If you have any good advice or suggestions, please tell me quickly. Your drink is indispensable on this table. If you can't say anything, don't blame me for having someone beat you out!"
Zhou Yangong smiled sarcastically and said: "First drink and eat meat. If you are full of wine and food, the scholar will be free. If you are hungry, there is no way."
Marquis Zhongyi smiled and said: "Master Zhou, you have such a strong tone. Come on, come on, drink my bowl of wine first."
Zhou Yangong was not polite. He picked up the wine bowl handed over by Wang Banjin, raised his neck and drank it in one gulp. He wiped his mouth and said: "Good wine, at least ten years old Fenjiu. It's a pleasure!"
Seeing his boldness, Liu Mao also picked up the wine bowl and said, "How about another bowl of wine from me?"
Zhou Yanggong said: "Am I still afraid of you?"
I took it and drank it in one gulp.
When the others saw that he had such a large amount of wine, without the sourness of a scholar at all, everyone felt comfortable and let them drink one after another. Zhou Yangong refused to refuse anyone who came, and drank seven or eight bowls of wine in one gulp.
Too drunk.
Liu Ling smiled and said, "I've had a drink too. Do you have any clever ideas?"
Zhou Yangong said: "I still have a mouthful of meat before I can think of a clever plan."
After saying that, without using chopsticks, he directly tore off the chicken leg from a cooked chicken and swallowed it in two bites. Then he grabbed a leg of lamb and sat on the ground without moving a stool, wolfing it down. After a while, a
He tore the leg of mutton into his stomach. Zhou Yangong patted his belly, burped and said, "Here's a great idea!"
He suddenly raised his head, looked at Liu Ling and asked: "Your Majesty, why don't you take advantage of the situation?" (To be continued)
