The atmosphere in the entire tent seemed to condense in an instant.
Everyone present stopped their movements and turned their attention to the focus of the tent—Junshui Camp General Bailiba and Su Wang Zhao Hongrun.
The Yanling frontline has no real commander so far. Previously, Yanling Military Lieutenant Chen Shi was only acting as a temporary commander, with an unjustified reputation. Moreover, even Chen Shi himself did not expect to become a commander.
Frontline coach.
For now, the two people who are the most qualified to lead tens of thousands of Wei soldiers on the front line are the two people who are the focus of everyone's attention.
But the question is, who will perform the duties of the head coach?
In terms of identity, Bailiba was once the imperial guard and confidant of Emperor Wei. And Zhao Hongrun was the eighth son of Emperor Wei, the dignified King Su. In terms of qualifications, Bailiba was the general of the fifth battalion of Junshuiying.
And Zhao Hongrun had just led a shocking victory, wiping out Chu's 60,000 vanguard army in one fell swoop.
It is no exaggeration to say that both of them are fully qualified to shoulder the previous duties of head coach, but the question is, when these two people meet, who is the leader and who is the assistant?
The five generals of the Junshui Camp, Cao Jie, Gong Yuan, Wu Ben, Yu Chun, and Li Wei, as well as Wu Wei Chen Shi, Wang Shu, Ma Zhang, and Zong Wei Shen Yu, these nine people looked at Baili Ba, and
Look at Zhao Hongrun, no one spoke rashly.
As the focus of the nine people's attention, Bailiba and Zhao Hongrun also looked at each other without speaking.
Bailiba...his father's former Zongwei, Hu Gu's confidant. He...what does this mean?
Zhao Hongrun looked at Bailiba with confusion and confusion in his eyes. He didn't understand why Bailiba would clarify this issue at this time.
Is it to seize power?
Zhao Hongrun couldn't understand.
However, in fact, Bailiba's move was just a whim. If his personal guards had not just told him in a vague way that King Su lacked enough respect for you, the general, he would not have pointed out the matter at all.
However, since the guards around him have said this, Bailiba has to pay attention to this issue.
After all, Bailiba was in his prime. Not only had he lived more than twenty years longer than Zhao Hongrun, but he had also been in sole control of the military for more than ten years. He could see that although Zhao Hongrun had no intention of competing with him for power, in fact this man
His Highness King Su is by no means a person who can be easily influenced by others.
As far as the scene on the banks of the Yanshui River a few hours ago, it was obvious that the two of them were close and had a tacit understanding, but because of their different opinions on how to deal with the prisoners of war of the Chu army, the young but persistent His Highness Prince Su could not take a single step.
Unwilling to give in.
Yes, how could His Highness King Su give in? Because even the current Emperor of Wei Dynasty did not make His Highness give in, let alone Baili Ba.
This will lead to a hidden danger: if we do not decide as soon as possible who is the leader and who is the assistant, then who should we listen to when we encounter such controversial issues in the future?
If the two of them can't argue, will the battle still be fought?
Thinking of these possible things, Bailiba decided to solve this problem first.
Although Bailiba himself was confident that he could lead the frontline soldiers to regain the lost territory and drive out the Chu army that invaded the territory of Wei, but on the other hand, it was not impossible for him to delegate power to Zhao Hongrun. After all, this young King Su
Your Highness's plan to lure and annihilate Chu's 60,000 vanguard army in one fell swoop was indeed a beautiful one.
Of course, he is willing to do so, but to hand over the command, Bailiba must test His Highness Prince Su to see if he has the courage and courage.
After all, being smart and being able to come up with strategies to defeat the enemy is not enough to become a commander of an army. At best, he is just a strategist, counselor, and staff.
Because of this, Bailiba did not rush to sit on the main seat in the tent, but looked at Zhao Hongrun's attitude. If this son did not have the courage to take the seat at the risk of getting into trouble with him under his coercion, he
If you take that position and give up that seat, Bailiba will never give up the overall say in this battle.
Is he... forcing me to express my position?
Zhao Hongrun looked at Bailiba with more and more doubts in his eyes.
After frowning and thinking for a moment, Zhao Hongrun asked tentatively: "General, should you sit in this position...or should I, the king?"
He threw the ball back to Bailiba.
Unexpectedly, Bailiba didn't answer at all, and said with a smile but not a smile: "Anyone can sit in this seat, of course, your highness can also sit..."
So he wanted to give the power to me?
Zhao Hongrun was stunned when he heard this, and was about to speak when Bailiba lowered his voice and added inexplicably: "But, Your Highness, do you...really plan to sit down?"
As he spoke, he squinted his eyes. Not only did the gaze he stared at Zhao Hongrun become more and more sharp, but he also seemed to be exuding an inexplicable pressure.
Junshui Camp is in charge of the life and death of 25,000 soldiers, the pressure of the general!
…
Zhao Hongrun pursed his lips.
At this moment, he felt as if he was the prey being targeted by a falcon, and his nerves were involuntarily tense.
Under this pressure, Zongwei Shen Yu next to Zhao Hongrun looked nervous and subconsciously touched the sword at his waist.
This...this is going to be bad!
When Wu Wei Chen Shi, Wang Shu, and Ma Zhang saw this, their expressions changed slightly, and they subconsciously looked at the five generals of Junshui Camp, fearing that they would be provoked by Zong Wei Shen Yu's actions and show hostility.
But what surprised them was that the five generals of the Junshui Camp crossed their arms and watched this scene as if they were watching a show. It was as if they didn't even see Zongwei Shen Yu holding his hands tightly because of nervousness.
He took off the hilt of the sword at his waist.
There was silence in the tent for a long time. Suddenly, Zhao Hongrun smiled and said, "In that case, I will not be polite!"
After that, under Bailiba's dumb gaze, he walked forward a few steps calmly and sat down on the handsome seat in the tent.
Really...really sitting down?
The five generals of Junshui Camp looked at Zhao Hongrun with wide eyes and astonishment.
He... Your Highness, did you really sit down?
Wu Wei Chen Shi, Wang Shu, and Ma Zhang looked nervously at the face of Junshuiying General Bailiba.
As they could see, Bailiba's face had completely darkened, and his tiger eyes were staring coldly at Zhao Hongrun who was sitting on the main seat.
With that kind of look, even Chen Shi, Wang Shu, and Ma Zhang who were watching felt frightened, and secretly said in their hearts: Your Highness, Your Highness, please return that position to this general... It will be bad if this continues.
At this moment, Bailiba suddenly raised his head and burst into hearty laughter: "Hehehe, hahahaha——"
Before anyone else in the tent could react, the five generals from the Junshui camp also pointed at their own generals and started laughing.
"Hahaha, lose, lose."
"General, it seems that your deterrence is not enough..."
"Is it because his eyes are not fierce enough? I still think Cao Jie's eyes are more fierce..."
"Why are my eyes so fierce? Speaking of eyes, it must be Gong Yuan's, not only fierce but also sinister..."
"Cao Jie, I think you just deserve a beating!"
"Come on, come on, am I afraid of you?"
"Want to play one-on-one? Add me!"
"Wu Bi, please stop causing trouble..."
Seeing the generals of the fifth battalion of Junshui Camp making a commotion, Chen Shi, Ma Zhang, and Wang Shu looked at each other, unable to understand what was going on.
In their unbelievable eyes, General Bailiba's eyes had already returned to their usual appearance. He walked towards the chief on the left with a smile, sat upright, and looked kindly towards Zhao Hongrun on the chief seat, slightly lowering his head. Lower your head.
Even Zhao Hongrun was very surprised by this scene, and Zongwei Shen Yu was dumbstruck, still holding the sword on his waist with both hands, looking at this scene dumbfounded.
Uncle Baili... is he testing me?
Zhao Hongrun looked at Bailiba with a complicated expression. If he still couldn't see Bailiba's intention until now, he would really be ashamed of others' evaluation of his intelligence.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little scared about his decision just now.
If I had just chosen to give in, I am afraid that this uncle-level general would no longer have any right to make a decision, right?
Zhao Hongrun thought silently.
Indeed, if Zhao Hongrun had just given up his position as leader under the threat of Bailiba's gaze, it would mean that he could only passively assist Bailiba from a auxiliary position.
He himself decided on his role in the war.
And now, he, Zhao Hongrun, has chosen the leader, which means that he can play the role of the leader in this war, commanding more than 10,000 Yanling soldiers and 25,000 Wei soldiers in the Junshui camp, including the general Bailiba. He dispatches and assists him.
Just now, Bailiba bowed his head slightly towards Zhao Hongrun in good faith after taking his seat, which represented this message.
"Okay, okay, stop making trouble and take a seat. It's time to discuss important matters."
It is undeniable that Bailiba is a hero who can take things up and let them go. He did not take this matter to heart at all. He clapped his hands and motioned for the few people who were still standing in the tent to take their seats.
As a result, everyone in the tent sat down in order according to their rank, except for Zong Wei Shen Yu, who retracted his hand on his waist in embarrassment, lowered his head and walked to stand next to Zhao Hongrun, his eyes evasive and afraid to look. Walking towards Baili.
Obviously, he has also realized the gaffe he just made.
Or maybe it’s a lack of experience.
After all, none of the five generals in Junshui Camp showed any hostility. Only Shen Yu was frightened by Bailiba's power and subconsciously grabbed his weapon.
Don't think this is bravery, in fact it is a sign of cowardice.
The gap...is that big?
Shen Yu secretly looked at Baili Ba with a look of disbelief on his face, feeling really uncomfortable in his heart.
After all, this general had also stepped up to the position of general from Zong Wei, and was his predecessor.
Bailiba seemed to have noticed the ugly-looking Shen Yu, and nodded to him kindly, and then said seriously: "Okay, Cao Jie, let's first report on the current situation of our army."
"Yes!" Junshui Camp General Cao Jie stood up in response, but the direction of the salute with clasped fists was towards Zhao Hongrun who was on the throne.
Because at this moment, the priorities of the Wei army on the front line have been divided.
Although no one mentioned anything about the coach, the scene just now made everyone in the tent realize one thing.
This army currently respects King Su Zhao Hongrun!
