If anyone else had said this, the five people would definitely think it was inappropriate.
To put it bluntly, in Dayan today, there are not even a handful of people who are qualified to command them. Grand Sima Shang Yongzhong and the others will not take it lightly. From all aspects, Dayan today really has the ability to command them.
There is only one person qualified to command them, and that is the man in the wheelchair in front of him.
Regardless of their qualifications or whatever, these five people were brought out by Meng Shanming. For example, Zhang Hu, the current governor of Changzhou, was originally an unknown horseman who was promoted and cultivated by Meng Shanming.
Which of the five has not received the kindness of Meng Shanming today?
The five people's military experience was cultivated and grown up step by step under Meng Shanming. Who doesn't know that they are soldiers led by Meng Shanming? They can put on airs in front of anyone, but they can't even put on airs in front of Meng Shanming.
No qualifications.
This is why Gong Linche went to Meng Shanming before, hoping that Meng Shanming would come out to preside over the war.
Now, the five people listening to Meng Shanming's weird words felt uncomfortable all over. They felt like they were being slapped on the left and right on the face. It happened that it was not a direct slap in the face, but it felt even worse than a slap in the face.
Is it appropriate to be the general of the Eastern Expedition? Are five people qualified to say that Meng Shanming is not qualified to command them? The only excuse they can have is that you are physically inconvenient.
The five of them looked at me, and I looked at you, and they all secretly exchanged glances.
In the end, Su Qitong couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Commander, what you said is very scary. Since you are already the general of the Eastern Expedition, we will just obey the order."
"The general will obey the order."
"Commander, stop talking, I will obey your orders."
The five people made promises one after another, fearing that Meng Shanming would never stop making weird things.
Meng Shanming said, "You said you must obey orders, and I didn't force you."
"No no."
"No, there is absolutely no force."
"Yes, Marshal, we are willing to do so."
The five of them were embarrassed one by one and made a promise in a state of laughter and tears.
Of course, there is a reason why we can make such a guarantee so quickly.
To say that things happened for a reason is not because the five people are disrespectful to Meng Shanming. In fact, they respect Meng Shanming very much. However, the situation is indeed different from the past. Some things can no longer be taken emotionally. Even if they don't consider themselves, they must follow them to the death for their subordinates.
Brothers consider.
If you don't think about the brothers below, how can you follow them?
The reason for making the guarantee now is also very simple. First of all, Meng Shanming has enough qualifications to command them. Secondly, the three major factions must agree with the current situation and there is no need to have any concerns. Finally, they are concerned about
Meng Shanming is confident.
If they knew they would be defeated, they would naturally seek a way out. Now that Meng Shanming arrived, they saw hope again. The dissatisfaction in their hearts was suppressed by Meng Shanming. He could also give the brothers below a chance.
Account.
On the contrary, if Shang Yongzhong came to command them to fight, even if the five of them agreed, the generals below would clamor to disagree. They knew they were going to die but still did it. Who could agree easily? But it was different when they moved out of Mengshan Ming.
Once this name is thrown out, it is just a sign, and the brothers below cannot say anything.
To a certain extent, this is Meng Shanming's prestige in the military, which is convincing!
The elder Yue Yuan of Zijin Cave behind Gongzhou, the elder Yuan Long of Lingjian Mountain behind Tuzhou, the elder Zu Ande of Lingjian Mountain behind Fuzhou, the elder Shen Yuhong of Xiaoyao Palace behind Haozhou, the elder of Xiaoyao Palace behind Changzhou.
Nongfeng Pavilion, everyone watched the scene in front of them silently.
After seeing this scene, we can deeply understand why the higher-ups asked Meng Shanming to come out of the mountain. These arrogant soldiers may not even take them seriously. It is really only this crippled old man in a wheelchair who can calm them down.
After the five people finished expressing their opinions, Meng Shanming nodded slightly and said, "There is no joke in the army. If you disobey orders later, don't blame me for not cherishing old feelings. You all know my military laws!"
The five people stood in a row, cupped their hands together and said: "I will obey the commander's military orders!"
After saying this in unison, the five of them felt a little dazed, as if they had returned to the past.
Meng Shanming slightly turned his head to look at the five elders of the three major sects, and asked: "The three major sects are willing to enforce the law for my army?"
The implication is to ask people from the three major sects to help him enforce the law. Once five people dare to resist the order, as soon as he gives the order, the people from the three major sects will bring the five princes to justice for him!
It's not that he doesn't trust the five old men. The battlefield is no child's play. Once there is a difference, the consequences will be disastrous. At this time, he must rely on the hands of the three major factions to act.
The five people who heard these words were secretly shocked. They all knew Meng Shanming, and they were not surprised. Meng Shanming who went to the battlefield was ruthless!
The five elders looked at each other. At this point, there was no room for hiding anything, otherwise they would not have agreed to let others manipulate their power.
The five people also raised their hands to show some respect, saying that they would obey the order, although they still seemed a little reluctant.
The prelude has been straightened out, and Meng Shanming's tone changed, "Military orders are like a mountain that cannot be knocked down. When the army goes out to march, military discipline must be strictly enforced. Military orders must be kept smooth and executed, and the five generals must obey orders!"
"Here!" The five princes raised their hands in response.
Meng Shanming: "Let Xu Jingyue lead the Gongzhou people, An Xianzhao lead the Tuzhou people, Su Qitong lead the Haozhou people, Shi Xinmao lead the Fuzhou people, and Zhang Hu lead the Changzhou people as the five-way law enforcement supervisor!"
There are actually five law enforcement supervisors? Not to mention the five elders, even Zhang Hu and others were surprised to have so many law enforcement personnel?
"Huh?" Meng Shanming questioned with a cold voice in his nose.
Zhang Hu and others, who looked left and right in the hope of finding the answer on each other's faces, immediately came to their senses and raised their hands together, "Yes!"
Meng Shanming continued: "The five generals will return to their respective ministries immediately, contact the nearby states to gather troops to fight the Song army, and report to me as soon as possible the situation of the troops gathered in each state, go!"
"Yes!" The five men took the order again.
Is it over like this? After confirming that there was nothing else to do, several people bid farewell to Meng Shanming one after another.
Zhang Hu had just sent the other four people out of the camp when a young general suddenly came from outside and reported: "Sir, there is news from the front that the Commander-in-Chief of the Song Army has sent a gift to Commander Meng."
Several people looked at each other, and Luo Zhao actually gave Meng Shuai a gift. What happened?
Zhang Hu asked: "Do you know what kind of gift it is?"
The young general replied: "A war horse and a letter."
War horses and letters? Zhang Hu frowned slightly and waved to send the things over.
Regardless of the moment, An Xianzhao and others, including several elders from the three major sects, wanted to see what was going on, so they stayed temporarily.
Naturally, this matter would not be hidden from Meng Shanming. Zhang Hu went back to his tent and reported it. Meng Shanming was a little strange after hearing the news, and he suspected that Luo Zhao wanted to persuade him to surrender.
After waiting for a while, the gift from the Governor of the Song Army was quickly delivered, and Luo Daan also pushed Meng Shanming out of the camp to check.
The horse is indeed a good horse. It is tall and white, and you can tell at a glance that it is a first-rate horse. It neighs majestically on the green grass.
It's just that the white cloth covering on the horse looks a bit nondescript, and looks like a shroud.
Meng Shanming, who trained Yingyang Wu Liewei, naturally knew the importance of war horses to cavalry. When he saw this horse, he could not help but feel fondness in his eyes.
When the letter arrived in Meng Shanming's hands, he opened it and read the signature, only to realize that it was written by Luo Zhao himself.
As for the content of the letter, Meng Shanming raised his eyebrows slightly and couldn't help but snorted in public.
Seeing his reaction, everyone else wanted to know the content of the letter. Zhang Hu tried to ask, "Commander, what is written in the letter?"
Meng Shanming didn't hide anything and handed it to him for inspection.
When Zhang Hu received the letter and read the contents, his face suddenly became ferocious and he shouted sternly: "Luo Zhao, you are so arrogant!"
What's going on? Su Qi and others quickly came forward and took the letter in their hands and gathered together to watch. They saw that the letter contained only one sentence: Meng Shanming, can you still ride?
Signed by Luo Zhao.
This letter is combined with the war horse sent by Luo Zhao, and it is not difficult to understand its meaning. It is ironic that Meng Shanming is disabled. Even if a good horse and a BMW are given to you, you will not be able to ride it.
It seems to be mocking Meng Shanming that he is already old and his legs are disabled, so why did he come to the battlefield?
Looking at the white cloth cover deliberately added to the horse's body, the meaning is naturally clear. It is not a gift. It is here to pay filial piety and to mourn Mengshan.
To actually ridicule and humiliate Meng Shanming like this, Su Qi and others were furious. They all scolded Luo Zhao for being too arrogant.
"Here comes the sword!" Zhang Hu asked someone for a horse-killing sword, and walked towards the horse with the sword in hand, full of murderous intent.
The war horse seemed to have spirituality, as if it sensed Zhang Hu's malicious intent, and began to move uneasily and became agitated, but the sergeant tightened the reins.
Just when Zhang Hu was about to kill the horse with his sword, Meng Shanming shouted, "Stop!"
Luo Daan pushed him over and towards the white horse.
Zhang Hu turned back, pointed his sword at the white horse, and said in a painful voice: "Commander, Luo Zhao is so arrogant, I cannot keep this gift."
"Why can't we keep it? There is nothing wrong with a good horse or a beautiful horse." Meng Shanming, who was approaching, motioned for someone to take off the white horse's coat. He reached out and patted the strong chest muscles of the horse. He looked at this horse again and admired it. Said: "Good horse! I accepted this gift. Reply to Luo Zhao for me, saying that I like his gift very much. If we have a chance to meet, I will definitely give you a generous gift in return!"
Shi Xinmao also came to persuade: "Commander, the gift of this horse is not auspicious. I might not know if I keep it with you. It is really not suitable to keep it with you!"
Meng Shanming suddenly turned around and scolded: "Do you want to talk too much? The military order has been issued. If you don't leave, why are you still here? Are you trying to test the law?"
Shi Xinmao and others were speechless, so they left one by one in despair...
With Meng Shanming's personal visit to the front line, the battlefield situation changed drastically in an instant. The Song Army suddenly changed its tactics and stopped entangled with the Yan Army. It took advantage of the situation to advance westward quickly. Anyone with a little knowledge of warfare can see that the Song Army's behavior He went straight to the capital of Yan Kingdom.
There was a sudden panic in the Yanjing court.
PS: On the first day of the Lunar New Year, "Wind Blowing Miniskirt" was promoted to the leader of the league. It's a good sign and happy!
