Meng Ruhu used Yang Sichang's order to question Li Zhi, and Li Zhi used the emperor's imperial edict to suppress Meng Ruhu. Speaking of which, Li Zhi's edict was more effective. Yang Sichang's verbal order to stop the killing of Xian thieves was really a bit
Can't get it on the table.
In fact, these generals brought by Mengruhu were not Mengruhu's subordinates, but were temporarily assigned to Mengruhu's army by Yang Sichang from the general command. Mengruhu was loyal to Yang Sichang, but these generals were not.
It has been half a year since these generals entered Shu. They were beaten to a disgrace by Zhang Xianzhong and suffered many defeats. They had no way to deal with the thieves. But now that Li Zhi's army came, the situation immediately reversed. Li Zhi beat Zhang Xianzhong and fled in embarrassment.
It's only been in the past few months that I've been offering sacrifices to thieves.
Some generals with sinister personalities, like Yang Sichang, were worried that Li Zhi's proficiency in fighting would reflect their incompetence, and they had dissatisfaction on their faces.
However, some generals with upright personalities were ready to take action. Li Zhi was about to make great achievements. If he could follow Li Zhi in his achievements, he would be able to share some of his military exploits, right? When the time comes, some of his military exploits would be shared, and the mistakes of previous defeats would be wiped out.
If Li Zhi was generous and said a few words for himself, he would be considered meritorious.
Many generals were wondering how to keep up with Li Zhi's fast ship.
Fierce Tiger didn't notice the mood of his generals, and asked carelessly: "Long Wenguang and Cao Bianjiao's soldiers and horses are now fighting with the Taibao Lord?"
Li Zhi nodded and said: "Governor Long and General Cao are both loyal ministers of the country and are eager to kill the enemy, so our three armies have merged into one to pursue Zhang Xianzhong here. At present, Governor Long and General Cao are under my command."
Hearing Li Zhi's words, all the generals were shocked. Forget about Cao Bianjiao, he was a general soldier and had a lower official position than Li Zhi, so it made sense for Li Zhi to be restrained. But Long Wenguang was the governor of Sichuan, and the Ming Dynasty used culture to control military affairs.
Logically speaking, Li Zhi should listen to Long Wenguang.
However, in front of Li Zhi, a powerful soldier in the world, and seeing that he could gain military exploits by following Li Zhi, Long Wenguang actually listened to Li Zhi.
The generals looked at each other in astonishment for a while.
Li Zhi said calmly: "Governor Long and General Cao are loyal ministers who serve the country, so they know the priorities. They kill the enemy together with me, and if they have military exploits, I will naturally share them with them. Now that the country is in crisis and war is raging, together
Advancing and retreating at the same time is the attitude that civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty should have."
Hearing Li Zhi's words, Meng Ruhu was tongue-tied and speechless. Li Zhi used the overall situation of the country to suppress Meng Ruhu, but Meng Ruhu was not good at eloquence and was really unable to explain. Yang Sichang privately asked the generals to stop talking about suppressing the thieves.
The order is indeed somewhat unjustifiable at a time when the Ming Dynasty is in danger.
Meng Ruhu was stunned when he saw General Liu Shijie come out, knelt down on one knee and said loudly: "General Liu Shijie is also willing to follow the example of General Cao Bianjiao and fight with the Taibao Lord! The two thousand horse troops under the command of the last general are willing to
Listen to Master Taibao’s orders!”
Hearing Liu Shijie's words, all the generals in the tent were shocked and looked at each other in surprise for a while.
Some people are starting to defect!
This Liu Shijie was originally a subordinate of Zuo Liangyu and was famous for his bravery. However, he had always been upright and had some conflicts with the arrogant and domineering Zuo Liangyu. A few months ago, Yang Sichang asked Zuo Liangyu to divide his troops into fierce tigers, so Zuo Liangyu sent him
Liu Shijie's two thousand cavalry were as fierce as tigers. Liu Shijie was a straight-tempered man who only wanted to kill bandits and make meritorious deeds. This month, he was very dissatisfied when he heard Yang Sichang's order to stop the suppression of bandits on the grounds of cold weather. At this time, he met Li
When Zhi's soldiers and horses were strong and he took the lead in killing the thieves, Liu Shijie jumped out and asked to join Li Zhi's command.
By following Li Zhi, he could repay the emperor's favor and make military exploits. Liu Shijie couldn't help but make a desperate move.
When Meng Ruhu heard Liu Shijie's words, his face darkened and he asked coldly: "Liu Shijie, the supervisor ordered you to obey the orders of this president. Are you disobeying the order?"
Before Liu Shijie could answer, Zhao Guangyuan, the commander-in-chief of Shaoyang who was sitting on the table, stood up, raised his hands and said: "I have two thousand horsemen and two thousand infantry under my command Zhao Guangyuan. I am also willing to follow the Taibao Lord to kill the thieves! I will listen to the Taibao Lord's dispatch."
Hearing Zhao Guangyuan's statement, the generals in the camp were shocked again.
Zhao Guangyuan had long been tired of taking orders from the fierce tiger. This fierce tiger was a warrior who had been deprived of his official position because of a crime and was sent to the border. However, Yang Sichang recognized his bravery in fighting and brought him back and restored his official position. Therefore, fierce tiger was loyal to Yang Sichang.
Geng Geng, Yang Sichang saw that he was loyal and useful, so he simply made him the "president" in charge of the front line.
But what qualifications does a general soldier who is as fierce as a tiger have just resumed his official position to be the superior of other general soldiers? When the war started, this fierce tiger had no strategy to defeat the enemy. After half a year of fighting, the situation became worse and worse. The other general soldiers
For example, Zuo Liangyu, He Renlong, Cao Bianjiao and other senior officials and high-ranking officials did not obey Meng Ruhu's command. Zhao Guangyuan just waited for an opportunity and completely ignored the "president" Meng Ruhu.
Now in Li Zhi's Chinese army tent, the opportunity has come.
Although Zhao Guangyuan was also Zhang Xianzhong's defeated general, he did not want Li Zhi to massacre all directions as soon as he came up, which would make him and other generals appear incompetent. But now the situation is stronger than the people, and Li Zhi's powerful army is here, and it is estimated that it will take less than a month.
To seek the destruction of Zhang Xianzhong and to go against Li Zhi is obviously asking for trouble.
Moreover, Long Wenguang, Cao Bianjiao and Liu Shijie all took the initiative to join Li Zhi. Li Zhi's army was stronger and Yang Sichang's interest alliance against Li Zhi had been disintegrated. It was obviously unwise to follow Yang Sichang at this time.
The emperor had long distrusted Yang Sichang. Now the emperor trusted Li Zhi and pinned all hopes of annihilating Zhang Xianzhong on Li Zhi. Instead of taking orders from a warrior as fierce as a tiger, it would be better to take orders from someone who has the favor of the emperor inside and powerful soldiers and horses outside.
The prince's Taibao Li Zhi. If he surrenders to Li Zhi as soon as possible, he might be able to wash away the stigma of the defeated army.
When Meng Ruhu heard what Zhao Guangyuan said, his face was blue. He stood up angrily and said loudly: "Zhao Guangyuan, if you don't follow Li Zhi's instructions, aren't you afraid that the supervisor will cut off your food and salary?"
Seeing that Li Zhi was as fierce as a tiger and threatened Zhao Guangyuan with a loss of food and pay, he laughed a few times and said: "Even if the supervisor does not provide food, Sichuan Governor Long Wenguang can still provide food and grass for the generals. General Zhao does not have to worry."
After listening to Li Zhi's words, Zhao Guangyuan felt relieved and decided to have sex with Li Zhi.
Zhao Guangyuan cupped his hands and said, "I am willing to listen to Master Taibao's instructions, charge in front of the battle, and do my best."
Li Zhi laughed loudly and said loudly: "Generals Liu Shijie and Zhao Guangyuan are loyal ministers who are dedicated to serving the country. Since you two are willing to fight side by side with me and capture Zhang Xianzhong in the future, I will definitely pay tribute to the two generals."
Hearing that Li Zhi had accepted the two generals and bluntly said that he would commend them for their merits, the other generals looked at each other, their eyes a little green. (To be continued.) 8
