Chapter 852 Tong Guan and Zhong Jia are not what I like
"Then Xiao Tang said he was coming to pay a visit to Mr. Zhong? Now the Xia dogs stationed in You, Shi, Xia, and Yinji states have become shrinking bastards. Our army has invaded most of the eastern barriers of Hengshan. At this time, there is no way for the two armies to join forces. What's wrong... Hey! It's just that Xiao Tang, who works as the deputy envoy and supervises the army, is a person who can't stand idleness. It's because he has good luck and has won several big victories in succession. I'm afraid We also want to please the officials. He is already very modest at his age, and he holds an important position in the Privy Council. How can we promote him? Why don't we just ask him to serve as a school inspector?"
"What's so great? That guy is so lucky. Not only is he an important minister in front of the emperor, but he is also someone who knows a lot about military matters. In the past, those high-ranking officials sent by Bianjing to inspect the battlefield would really have to see the killings in battle with their own eyes. He is considered brave if he wears his crotch, and Xiao Tang knows how to lead troops, and the officials can also see the small merits he has made, and he can get an exceptional promotion if he transfers the merits in the merit book.
By chance, we have been through the gates of hell several times and fought for more than ten years, but our achievements are not recognized by the important ministers in the Privy Council. Who knew that Xiao Tang could taste bamboo and silk, play songs and dances, and be able to win official positions? The family is happy, but it turns out that we, the reckless men who only know how to fight, are the descendants of stepmothers, and we have to be looked down upon by the civil servants in the Bianjing court."
The interlocutors were all generals in the various branches of the Western Army currently under the control of Zhongshi Dao. The country was at war, and these battle-hardened soldiers were naturally holding their breath to gain more fame. They were originally in Zhongshi. Under the command of Dao and other famous generals, the initial stage of the war went very smoothly, but after all, the Xia Kingdom was a country that could compete with the Song Dynasty in the northwest border for nearly two hundred years. While the soldiers of various ministries were vying to fight first, they were also on guard against the traps set by the Xia army generals. numerous obstacles and traps.
However, Xiao Tang suddenly took control of the military power of the Song Army on the Eastern Front, and the war situation that was originally inclined to a stalemate suddenly changed.
Many generals of the Western Army did not expect that Xiao Tang would take over the errand of the envoy and supervise the army and then repel the Xia army troops who unexpectedly attacked Linxia City. Then, with the approval of Lao Zhong, the Prime Minister, he would lead the Song army on the eastern front. After reorganizing it, he would march to Yinzhou. They attacked in a roundabout way and set up an ambush to defeat the 50,000 enemy troops in the left wing. The heroic army commanded 50,000 enemy troops, which further boosted the morale of the Song army. And the generals in various departments also knew about the great achievements. If the officials of Henan University, who were prosperous, learned that Xiao and Tang had repeatedly accomplished extraordinary feats, they would The young boy who had been rising rapidly in the court was naturally going to rise to the top again.
Of course, the generals in the army respect brave generals who are good at fighting, and Xiao Tang Jianfan's achievements have greatly improved his prestige among the various departments of the Western Army. However, there are also many who are proud of being from the Western Army. The generals knew why Xiao Tang was promoted by the official family in the first place, and they wished they could make several great achievements immediately and not let that young boy Xiao Tang take the lead.
He is just a close official who has suppressed several local bandits. It is also because he is favored by the emperor that he is like Tong Guan, Gao Qiu, Cai Chi and other favored officials. If he is allowed to dominate the court, it will be unreasonable. By overpowering our generals from Bianjing, who have been waiting for a long time at the country's border, wouldn't this make us, the sons of the Western Army, lose face?
These generals were not only eager to win and compete because Xiao Tang had won several great victories in succession. Most of the officers and generals who led the troops here firmly supported the way of Zhongshi, and Zhongshi was the leader of the Western Army. Although Souchong, the Prime Minister, once praised Xiao and Tang, but now he is in charge of all the troops as the deputy envoy to supervise the army, and he is very eager to take the initiative to fight for merit. These Western Army generals also know very well that Song In all the Xia wars, most of the angel supervisors sent by the imperial court over the years were just to enjoy the war achievements and were useless for command and dispatch. Before Xiao Tang, there was a person who controlled the military power in the name of the supervisor, and then expanded it step by step. Power and influence in the Western Army.
And that person's name is Tong Guan.
It can be said that he was famous for his reputation. While the generals in the Western Army admired Xiao Tang for his many extraordinary achievements, many people were dissatisfied or suspected of Xiao Tang's ambition to fight for merit and power. At this time, there was someone
The young general Song passed by and heard the Western Army generals talking about Xiao Tang. He snorted secretly and said in his heart: Xiao Jie is handsome...but he doesn't need to be compared with Tong Guan.
, these generals who respect the teachings of teachers pride themselves on being upright and straightforward men in the army. To put it bluntly, they are afraid of Xiao Jieshuai becoming more and more powerful in the side court. The ministers in the court who are used to intrigues are not
Is this the case? Do you really think that the power of the Western Army must be inherited by his brother?
And this young Song general was the young Taiwei Yao Pingzhong who had been ordered to go to Hedong Road to support Xiao Tang in conquering Tian Hu's bandits and annihilating the incoming bandits and gangs.
Yao Pingzhong not only made Tong Guan unhappy because of his unyielding spirit, but also because the Yao family and the Zhong family were both generals of the Western Army for generations. The descendants of the two families were also competitive and had a very complicated attitude towards the cultivation master.
.It's just that there are many military orders. Now his father Yao Gu and uncle Yao Xiong are ordered to lead their troops on the West Road under the supervision of Tong Guan, but Yao Pingzhong also has to lead his troops under the account of Lao Zhongjinglue Xianggong to obey the orders.
In the previous episode, Yao Pingzhong was ordered by Zhongshi Dao to charge into the battle with armored warriors on the banks of the Hulu River, causing Xia's army to collapse and achieve great success. However, he also knew very well that although he did not have to fight bravely with swords, in the end, others would only remember him as Zhong.
The great victory was achieved only because of the master's command. Even though he was brave enough to die and accomplished many extraordinary feats, he still had to be constrained by the Zhongshi Dao. The Zhong family was still ahead of his Yao family.
However, after fighting under Xiao Tang's tent on the Hedong Road for a period of time, Yao Pingzhong had a very good impression of Xiao Jieshuai, a close minister of the emperor and a rising star in the Song army. Hearing that now that the situation on the Song Xia East Road and the middle road has stabilized temporarily, Yao Pingzhong had a good impression.
Shidao also sent a letter to Xiao Tang, agreeing to wait for Xiao Tang to come to the camp to meet him today. Yao Pingzhong paid attention to it, and also thought that Xiao Tang, who originally came to the side court as the deputy envoy to supervise the army, had repeatedly made troubles and covered up the army.
Did Mo also want to take advantage of the Song-Xia national war to get involved in the military power of the Western Army?
Yao Pingzhong was not only very angry when he saw his wife, Tongguan, being domineering and authoritarian, suppressing and co-opting the Western Army, but he was also unwilling to accept that the Yao family had to submit to the Zhong family. If Xiao Tang intervened at this time,
Wouldn't the Western Army's military power make the situation even more confusing? If so, wouldn't it be more beneficial to the Mihara Yao family?
Yao Ping Zhongwu was thinking in his heart. At this time, the gate of the camp suddenly opened slowly. Several pairs of light cavalry sentries drove into the gate like horses and said loudly: "Shuai Xiao has led his troops and has arrived.
One mile east of Wantong City."
The officers and soldiers of the Western Army in the camp also stood up one after another and lined up in formation under the command of their generals. Whether these officers and soldiers respected and admired Xiao Tang or were jealous, they were all filled with concern at this time.
I am curious and want to see with my own eyes who Xiao Jieshuai, who is now famous in the court, the court, and the rivers and lakes, is.
