Hearing what Shen Yu said, Zhao Hongrun and Wei Jiao felt a little embarrassed.
Feelings are their self-righteous misunderstanding. Shen Yu has no intention of giving up on himself?
However, to be cautious, Zhao Hongrun still tested Shen Yu.
"Shen Yu, why did you suddenly change your mind and want to learn how to lead?"
Seeing Zhao Hongrun staring at him intently when he said this, Shen Yu had been following the former for a long time, so he couldn't understand why.
He smiled helplessly and said: "Your Highness, don't doubt it, this matter is absolutely true... I have been thinking about this matter for three days and three nights."
At this point, he breathed out melancholy and murmured: "I heard it clearly that day. Master Mi Jiang said it himself. If you are lucky, the tendon in your right hand will slowly heal in a year and a half." If you take good care of yourself, you may recover as before in three to five years... If you are unlucky, then I may have to do this for the rest of your life..."
"You..." Wei Jiao impatiently wanted to interrupt, but Zhao Hongrun reached out to stop him. Zhao Hongrun looked at Shen Yu's firm and calm eyes and said: "Wei Jiao, don't be anxious, let Shen Yu finish... I I believe he will not disappoint us."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Shen Yu looked at Zhao Hongrun gratefully and was touched by the latter's trust in him.
At the same time, he did not forget to give Wei Jiao a calm look to signal him.
"At the beginning, Beizi was indeed very frustrated, because Beizi felt that what could a Zongwei who had lost his military power do, even if he stayed with His Highness?... But after thinking about it for three days, Beizi figured it out. Even those who are above His Highness, even those in humble positions are not the most outstanding in martial arts. There won’t be a big difference if I am with you or without me.”
"You guy!" Wei Jiao interrupted again angrily.
"Wei Jiao, let Shen Yu finish." Zhao Hongrun frowned and said.
Seeing this, Wei Jiao closed his mouth bitterly.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yu smiled and said to Wei Jiao at this time: "Wei Jiao, when Shen is not here in the future, you will be the chief of Zong Wei. How can you set an example if you are so impatient?"
Hearing these words, Wei Jiao instinctively felt unhappy, but looking at Shen Yu's hearty smile, he was a little dazed.
After all, Shen Yu's hearty smile is not like someone who can smile when he is full of depression.
At this time, Shen Yu had once again set his sights on Zhao Hongrun and said frankly: "Your Highness, do you still remember what you said to Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu a few days ago, predicting the battle between Qi and Chu."
Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun had vaguely guessed Shen Yu's decision, and the expression on his face became much better. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Don't you know about my memory?"
"Yes, His Highness has a photographic memory..." Shen Yu smiled slightly, then turned serious, and said seriously: "Once Qi Chu goes to war, and His Highness has made great achievements, it is very likely that the King of Qi will ask me to join the crusade against Chu. The commander-in-chief of the Wei army... This battle involves Qi, Lu, Chu, and my own country, the Wei Dynasty. The scope of the battlefield is bound to be wider than any war we have encountered in the past. By then, although Your Highness is extremely intelligent, but most of the time there are things that are beyond the reach of the whip... Although we Zongwei have learned how to command soldiers and horses in the Zongfu, we are still far behind Bailiba, Sima An, Zhu Hai and other great generals. Therefore, I didn’t want to wait for the injury on my hand to heal, so I decided to work under those generals and learn from them how to command troops, how to train troops, and how to command troops and horses. When His Highness goes on an expedition in the future, I can take care of His Highness’s worries. …”
really!
Zhao Hongrun nodded happily.
From the side, Wei Jiao's face also looked much better.
It is undeniable that the Zongwei have followed Zhao Hongrun in many battles in the north and south, and they have some experience in commanding troops. However, this kind of experience gained by themselves is not as good as the experience passed down by Baili Ba, Sima An, Zhu Hai and other generals in person. Grant.
Perhaps, Shen Yu's injury this time would not be a turning point for him and Zhao Hongrun.
Shen Yu was right. Zhao Hongrun did not lack the power to protect himself. What he really lacked was a general who could stand alone on the battlefield.
And among the generals under Zhao Hongrun now, how many of them can take charge of their own affairs?
After counting, I am afraid that only Qu Cheng, the general of the Yanling Army, is the only one. As for Wu Ji of the Shang Shui Army, although he has good military power, when it is his turn to use troops, he is still unable to take charge alone.
What's more, Qu Cheng was very ambitious and was not as loyal to Zhao Hongrun as Wu Ji. Shen Yu was not very reassured about this person.
Therefore, Shen Yu decided to take this opportunity to concentrate on learning how to command troops and become a general who can take charge of his role as soon as possible. In this way, Zhao Hongrun will be able to relax in the future and not have to worry about everything in detail.
After hearing this, Wei Jiao finally felt relieved. He stepped forward and punched Shen Yu in the chest, laughing and scolding: "You guy, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"How many times have you interrupted me, and you still blame me?... If you touch my wound again, I will fight back!"
Being hit in the chest by Wei Jiao again, Shen Yu grimaced in pain, covering his chest and rubbing it.
It was pitiful to see that he was stabbed half an inch into the chest by Chen Xiao with his sword, but Wei Jiao hit this spot again and again. Shen Yu doubted whether this guy did it on purpose.
Wei Jiao chuckled, raised his hands and took two steps back.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun asked Shen Yu with a smile: "Then do you think of a good place to go?"
"I am still hesitating about this matter." Shen Yu heard this and said with a wry smile.
You should know that among the six garrison battalions, except Nangong, the surrendered general of the Song Dynasty, there were five generals.
Among them, Wei Mu, the general of the Nanyan Army, was not from Zongwei and had no friendship with Zhao Hongrun, so he was excluded.
So there were only Bailiba from the Junshui Army, Sima An from the Dangshan Army, Zhu Hai from the Chenggao Army, and Xu Yin from the Fenxing Sai Army.
These four generals are all from Zongwei of the Zongfu and have friendship with Zhao Hongrun. I believe that these four generals will not refuse when Shen Yu asks them for their experience in commanding troops.
The question is, which general is better to choose as a teacher?
You must know that these four generals are all different in their conduct and command of their troops.
For example, Bailiba of the Junshui Army was a general who took the overall situation into consideration in everything he did, and he was also kind. But when it was his turn to use troops and train soldiers, the most outstanding one was Sima An of the Dangshan Army.
Unfortunately, Sima An is also the most difficult to get along with. Furthermore, there may be problems with Sima An's teaching methods.
If Shen Yu goes to Sima An for advice, it is very likely that Sima An will take Shen Yu to the Song Dynasty to encircle and suppress the Song rebels who are resentful of the Wei court, and the methods may be very cruel.
Therefore, Shen Yu is also worried that he will be influenced by Sima An and become bloodthirsty and xenophobic. After all, Sima An is very outstanding in this aspect. Just look at the Dangshan Army under his command. They have all been brainwashed by Sima An. Show no mercy to foreigners.
Therefore, Shen Yu could only regretfully exclude Sima An as a teacher. After all, he knew His Highness's grand plans and was influenced by Zhao Hongrun. Shen Yu also believed that in order to make their Wei country strong, it would not be possible to rely solely on the Wei people. Enough.
"How about General Zhu Hai of the Chenggao Army?"
Wei Jiao suggested to Shen Yu.
Shen Yu nodded and said: "When I was thinking about it last night, I also thought that General Zhu Hai of the Chenggao Army might be the most suitable."
At this time, Zhao Hongrun was stroking his chin and thinking deeply. Suddenly, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Wait a minute! Maybe there is someone more suitable than General Zhu Hai... a soldier who is better than the garrison." The general of the Sixth Battalion is a better hermit."
Better than the General of the Sixth Battalion of the Garrison?
Shen Yu and Wei Jiao looked at each other, feeling a little incredible.
"Who?" Shen Yu asked doubtfully.
Zhao Hongrun chuckled lightly and said seriously: "My fifth uncle, King Yu Zhao Yuandai!"
Hearing this, Shen Yu and Wei Jiao looked at each other in horror, and then their eyes showed ecstasy.
King Yu Zhao Yuanke, the fifth uncle of Zhao Hongrun, the most trusted younger brother of Emperor Wei, and the former coach of King Yu's army.
At that time, King Jing Zhao Yuanzuo and King Yu Zhao Yuandai were both known as the most outstanding princes in the history of the Wei Kingdom.
Then, in the civil war that took place in Daliang, the royal capital, eighteen years ago, King Yu Zhao Yuanqi finally led his army to defeat the then King Jing. Zhao Yuanzuo, the King of Nanliang who was now traveling to Longxi, sent Zhao Hongrun, his father, Emperor Wei, to the throne. Send him to the throne.
Compared with King Yu Zhao Yuande, the current general of the Sixth Battalion of the Garrison, although similar in age to the former, can only be regarded as a junior.
There are even rumors that if Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, had not been exiled and Zhao Yuanke, the king of Yu, was seriously injured in the civil war and went into seclusion, when the Chu State invaded the Wei State, Zhao Hongrun would not have had a chance to shine. Regardless of the two Zhao Hongruns, If any of his uncles takes action, they can defeat Chu Yangcheng Lord Xiong Tuo and escape in embarrassment.
It’s no wonder, after all, the king of Nanliang, Zhao Yuanzuo, and the king of Yu, Zhao Yuanke, were both outstanding figures of the previous generation. If Mi Jiang and Mi Rui’s father, Runan Jun Xiong Hao, were still alive, he would be evenly matched with Zhao Yuanzuo and Zhao Yuanke. As for his nephew Xiong Tuo, Lord of Yangcheng, he is obviously not qualified.
Because of this, Shen Yu and Wei Jiao were extremely surprised when they heard Zhao Hongrun name Zhao Yuandai as the candidate for King of Yu.
After all, the King of Yu, Zhao Yuandai, was a commander who commanded several armies at the same time. He obviously knows more things than Bailiba, Sima An and other military commanders, so he is naturally the most suitable teacher candidate.
The only problem is...
"But Your Highness, the Fifth Prince has lived in seclusion for more than ten years. Now, for the sake of his humble position, he is going to disturb the Fifth Prince. I'm afraid...it's not appropriate, right?" Shen Yu asked hesitantly.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun waved his hand and said with a smile: "Didn't I tell you about this?...After the incident in the clan house a while ago, my father took a batch from his second uncle (Zhao Yuanyan). Souei Habayashiro was planning to use these Souei Habayashiro as the backbone to create a new army... I didn't realize it at the time, so I asked my father for orders to train the new army, but my father didn't agree. See My father's attitude at that time seemed to be that there was a more suitable candidate than me..." At this point, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "I should have thought of it earlier, since the third uncle (Nanliang King Zhao Yuanji) has returned to Commander of the army, why is Fifth Uncle so relieved?... It seems that the Yu Shui Army from back then may be resurrected again!"
"Will the Fifth Prince serve as the coach of the new army?" Shen Yu asked in surprise.
"It's very possible!" Zhao Hongrun nodded and said to Shen Yu: "Shen Yu, since you have made your decision, then I will naturally find the best teachers for you to teach you the way of leadership... Don't do it. Disappoint this king and become a general who can take charge of his own duties as soon as possible!"
After hearing this, Shen Yu was extremely moved and clasped his fists heavily.
"Humble post...Thank you, Your Highness!" (To be continued.)
