"In the fourth battle, our Tiger Army surrenders."
Kou Ji said these words calmly under Gao Chuanggong's angry gaze.
The Tiger Character Army has fought three fierce battles and has proven its strength. Kou Ji's goal has been achieved. There is no need to risk his life to accompany Gao Chuanggong to fight in the fourth battle.
Among the four armies of the Forbidden Army, the Tiger Army defeated three.
The last one, whether to fight or not, doesn't matter.
There won't be many benefits if you win.
If you lose the battle, you will lose many soldiers.
Not worth it.
Everyone else was stunned when they heard this.
Just as Gao Chugong was about to refute, he heard Kou Ji continue: "Our Tiger-Character Army has fought fiercely for three games. The soldiers who fought have suffered many casualties, and it is no longer enough to support the fourth military performance.
If Duke Gao insists on fighting the Tiger Character Army, then we can only send the old and weak in the army to fight.
In order to praise the tyranny of the Japanese army, I am afraid that they would not bother to bully the old and the weak, right?
If something embarrassing happens then, it won’t be pretty.”
Kou Ji briefly praised the Japanese army, but took advantage of the situation to block Gao Chou Gong's continued invitation to fight. Gao Chou Gong glared in anger.
Other Wu Xun's expressions were not good-looking either.
There were four armies of the Forbidden Army, and three of them were lost to the Tiger-shaped Army.
If we don't take the opportunity to find some venues, when the news of the martial arts performance spreads throughout the Song Dynasty, the Forbidden Army and the Fourth Army may fall off the altar and become the laughing stock of the people.
But Kou Ji has made it clear that the Tiger Army will admit defeat in the fourth battle, and they cannot forcefully force the Tiger Army to continue fighting.
He could only stare at Kou Ji to express his dissatisfaction.
After Kou Ji defeated Gao Chugong, he did not let Wang Qinruo go.
Wang Qinruo said bluntly that Di Qing was incompetent.
If his words are really true, then Di Qing will not be easy to get along with in the future. When others look at Di Qing in the future, they will naturally regard Di Qing as a person without handsomeness.
Whenever the imperial court encounters any major events in the future, Di Qing will only be reduced to a vanguard general.
Of course, pioneer generals and their like can also make great achievements.
But compared to the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, what does it mean?
"The royal officials bluntly said that Di Qing has no handsome talent. How did they judge this? Is it just because he rushed into battle alone?"
Kou Ji stared at Wang Qinruo and asked.
Wang Qinruo stroked his beard and said calmly: "In full view of everyone, he acted with the same courage as an ordinary man, does he need more judgment?"
Kou Ji asked again, "Does the royal staff know why Di Qing rushed into the battle alone?"
Wang Qinruo said calmly: "Why he charged into the battle alone is not important at all. What is important is that he left his troops and horses to rush into the battle alone, which means he has lost the foundation of being a commander.
I was not wrong when I said he was not handsome."
"oh……"
Kou Ji had a look of surprise on his face and said: "It turns out that the king's official department has no knowledge of military affairs at all."
Wang Qinruo's old face changed, he stared and said: "How can I not be familiar with military affairs? Since I became an official, I have supervised more than ten armies, and participated in dozens of battles, large and small.
If I don't know how to do military things, how many people in the court do."
Kou Ji smiled and said: "Are you not coercing the general to ignore the situation of the army and retreat voluntarily, or are you inciting the court to negotiate a peace?"
Wang Qinruo's face turned red instantly, he stared at Kou Ji and shouted angrily: "Shu Zi, you are going too far!"
Kou Ji's words struck a chord in his heart. This is what he did when he was the supervisor of the Tianxiong Army.
At that time, the Liao people went south. He first wrote a letter to encourage the late emperor Zhao Heng to move to Jinling, but was blocked by Kou Zhun.
He was forced to serve as the supervisor of the Tianxiong Army. When he was fighting against the Liao people, he saw the Liao people coming fiercely, so he ignored the layout of the entire battlefield and coerced the general leading the Tianxiong Army to retreat thirty miles.
He also wrote a letter to the late emperor Zhao Heng, saying that the Liao people were coming with great force and were unstoppable.
If the Song Dynasty wanted to preserve the country, it must promise heavy gifts and negotiate with the Liao people.
When the late emperor Zhao Heng wanted to negotiate for peace, he indeed listened to his suggestion. When he sent Cao Li to negotiate for peace, he actually agreed to the Liao people's request for millions of dollars in annual coins.
If Kou Zhun hadn't appeared in time and threatened Cao Yongliang, Cao Yongliang would have reduced the amount of annual coins to 300,000 or less.
I am afraid that the annual coins contributed by the Song Dynasty to the Liao Kingdom will reach millions.
Song and Liao made an alliance and after returning to Beijing.
Wang Qinruo actually secretly reported to the late emperor Zhao Heng that the alliance between the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom was an alliance under the city walls.
It will damage the majesty of the imperial court and damage Zhao Heng's reputation.
The late emperor Zhao Heng actually listened to Wang Qinruo's words and dismissed Kou Zhun.
There are countless dirty things about Wang Qin, but he has always been in a high position, and few people bring the dirty things he has done to the table.
Now that Kou Ji was using his words to ridicule him in front of everyone, using his past events, how could he not be annoyed?
Kou Ji heard Wang Qinruo's words and sneered, "Too much bullying? Am I bullying others too much, or are you bullying others too much? Di Qing is not as good as Wen Guan. As long as he is willing to contribute to the court in the future, his future will be limitless.
But you want to end his career with one word.
He has no grievances or enmities with you, yet you have tricked him like this.
It was you who deceived others."
Wang Qinruo puffed his beard and shouted with eyes wide open: "As the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, I am in charge of the promotion and promotion of officials in the world. Can't I still evaluate an official?"
Kou Ji sneered and said: "If you judge the officials impartially, I will naturally not say anything. But your mind is biased and dark, and you cannot judge fairly at all."
In Wang Qinruo's angry eyes, Kou Ji shook off his sleeves and continued: "As the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, you are naturally qualified to criticize the officials of the world. But as the head of the Ministry of Management and Work, I also have the right to refute you."
"you!"
Wang Qinruo pointed at Kou Ji and prepared to scold him.
Kou Ji stared at him and snorted coldly, then raised his hands to Zhao Zhen and said: "The Tiger Character Army is the emperor's own army, controlled by the officials and controlled by the officials. Only the officials can evaluate the officers and soldiers of the Tiger Character Army.
The three chief ministers of the family and inner court."
Wang Qinruo was so angry that he trembled all over at Kou Ji's words.
When Kou Ji saw that Wang Qinruo had been scolded enough by him, he stopped talking.
Wang Qinruo's lips trembled and he was about to yell and scold Kou Ji.
However, before he could speak, he heard Kou Zhun snort coldly and yell: "That's enough! Envoys from all countries are watching from the sidelines. You are noisy like a shrew in the market, how can anyone treat you?
The Gonggun princes in my Great Song Dynasty Hall?"
Wang Qinruo glared at Kou Ji fiercely, glanced at Kou Zhun with a dark look, gritted his teeth and closed his mouth.
Obviously.
He already deeply resented Kou Zhun, Kou Ji's ancestors and grandsons.
Kou Ji saw Wang Qinruo's eyes and probably guessed Wang Qinruo's thoughts, and laughed coldly in his heart.
He didn't care at all and was hated by Wang Qinruo.
Wang Qinruo, this old guy, is like a mad dog.
As long as he feels that moving to another person is beneficial to him, then he won't care whether the other person has a grudge against him.
He will try his best to knock the opponent down and trample the opponent into the dirt.
Kou Zhun, Kou Ji's ancestors and grandsons held high positions, and they had political disagreements with Wang Qinruo.
He has already become a political enemy.
No matter whether Kou Ji offended Wang Qinruo or not, Wang Qinruo would frame him and try every means to move him.
Therefore, whether or not Wang Qinruo is offended is irrelevant to Kou Ji.
Kou Zhun did not pay attention to Wang Qinruo, but said to Zhao Zhen: "Di Qing is loyal and brave, and the tiger-character army is brave, so he should be rewarded!"
Wang Zeng and Li Di nodded, agreeing with Kou Zhun's words.
Zhao Zhen thought for a moment and said in deep thought: "Di Qing was promoted to the third level, Zhu You was promoted to the third level, and the rest were each promoted to the first level. They were given millions of dollars and rewarded for three days. What do the three beloved ministers think?"
Kou Zhun and the other three looked at each other, nodded, and agreed to Zhao Zhen's idea.
Di Qing, Zhu You and others did not have high official positions. They were promoted three levels in a row and did not enter the ranks of senior officials.
They are also affiliated with the Tiger Character Army and will not occupy the official share of other yamen in the imperial court.
Zhao Zhen didn't get excited and conferred a title on Di Qing or anything like that.
Therefore, Kou Zhun and the others had no reason to reject Zhao Zhen's proposal.
When Zhao Zhen saw that Kou Zhun and the others agreed, he ordered Chen Lin beside him: "Written by Zhong Shushe Rencao, I...promote Di Qing and others..."
The imperial edicts of the imperial court have different functions and the orders used are also different.
What Zhao Zhen dictates without any paper documents is called an oral edict, also called an edict.
The official document issued by Zhao Zhen is called an imperial edict, also known as an edict.
The official documents issued by the imperial court regarding large rewards and punishments, conferring high official titles, abolishing the old system, etc. are called written documents, and they are also called written orders.
The document issued by the imperial court regarding the promotion and scheduling of officials below the sixth rank is called an edict, also known as an edict.
When the eunuchs read out the imperial edict and the holy will.
They all start with the edict, the imperial edict, the system, and the edict.
Di Qing endured the pain in his body, knelt down on one knee with an excited face, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Di Qing, on behalf of the officers and men of the Tiger Character Army, would like to thank the officials for their kindness."
Zhao Zhen waved his hand and smiled, "You deserve this... When I return to the palace, the promotion decree, money, cattle, sheep, and wine given to you will be sent to the military camp."
Thanks again, Di Qing.
Zhao Zhen stopped talking, put his hands behind his back, and got off the stand.
He was very satisfied with the performance of the Tiger Character Army.
But the performance of the Forbidden Army soldiers made him dissatisfied.
He doesn't know now whether he should be happy or sad.
He just wanted to go back to the palace and think about it.
I don't want to stay in the stands any longer.
Zhao Zhen sat on the dragon and returned to the palace.
Kou Zhun, Wang Zeng, and Li Di sent officials from the Concierge House and Honglu Temple to lead the envoys from various countries and leave the stands.
The three of them also left the stand shortly after the envoys left.
Afterwards, other civil and military officials also left with their own thoughts.
Kou Ji did not leave in a hurry, but walked to Di Qing and helped him up.
Di Qing's injuries were serious. He had not gotten up since he knelt on the ground just now.
It seems to be showing loyalty to Zhao Zhen.
In fact, I didn't have the strength to stand up.
If Kou Ji hadn't noticed that his lips were slightly white and there was a layer of sweat on his forehead, he wouldn't have known that he had lost all his strength.
Kou Ji helped Di Qing up. Under Di Qing's grateful gaze, he rolled his eyes and said, "Are you stupid? I told you that our purpose is not to use the Forbidden Army to gain a higher position in the Fourth Army.
It's good to win, but if you can't win, it's okay to draw, so why would you risk your life?"
Di Qing grimaced and said, "Brother...I..."
Kou Ji glanced at him, and while helping him to walk under the stands, he said: "Okay, you don't need to say more. I understand your thoughts. You just want to take this opportunity to practice hard."
Give the officers and soldiers of the Tiger Character Army a chance to dare to fight when they face powerful enemies."
When Di Qing heard this, he nodded heavily, "Brother is right, I really think so."
After a pause, Di Qing continued: "What I did was indeed a bit reckless..."
Di Qing took the initiative to admit his mistake.
Kou Ji shook his head and said calmly: "Actually, I don't blame you for this matter. After all, it was me who hurriedly summoned you to the capital before you had completed your training and let you be on the school grounds.
Fight on top.
If I give you an extra year or two, you don't need to risk your life to inspire the soldiers to dare to fight."
Di Qing solemnly said: "Brother entrusted me with the Tiger-Character Army. Naturally, I have to find ways to help my brother hone the Tiger-Character Army. As long as I can help my brother hone a strong army, I will have no regrets even if I die."
"
Hearing this, Kou Ji shook his head and said, "What nonsense are you talking about...live well..."
In Kou Ji's heart, Di Qing was more important than the soldiers of the Tiger Army.
After all, three armies are easy to obtain, but one general is difficult to find.
What's more, it is even more difficult to find a commander who can command the three armies.
If the soldiers of the Tiger Character Army were gone, Kou Ji could easily summon another 10,000 soldiers.
But if Di Qing is gone, Kou Ji can't find anyone to take his place.
When Zhao Zhen was in power, there were only a few famous generals whose names could be recorded in history books.
After all, there are only a few people including Cao Wei, Di Qing, Zhong Shiheng, Yang Wenguang, and the Zhe family brothers.
Cao Wei is the head of the Cao family who is hereditary and has retired from the country.
Whether it is his own identity or the family status of Cao Mansion, he will not lose to Kou Ji and Kou Mansion.
How could he willingly listen to Kou Ji's orders?
Zhong Shiheng has lived in Qingjian City for a long time and has his roots in Qingjian City. He cannot be randomly dispatched by Kou Ji.
In addition, Zhong Shiheng had an uncle who was a great Confucian and was known as a Confucian general. He was much nobler than other military generals. How could he possibly surrender to Kou Ji's command?
The Zhe family has lived in Fuzhou for a long time, and it has almost become a nail firmly stuck in Fuzhou.
It was precisely because the Youzhe family was firmly established in Fuzhou, the junction of Song, Liao and Xixia, that the Liao and Xixia invaded the south several times, but all ended in failure.
The Zhe family was like a barrier for the Song Dynasty, helping the Song Dynasty guard its northwest territory.
With them guarding the northwest, the frontier of the Song Dynasty along the Fuzhou line can be said to be absolutely foolproof.
As long as there are three chiefs in the inner court and the officials are not stupid, they will never transfer the Zhe family and leave Fuzhou to do such a thing that destroys the Great Wall.
Therefore, even the Zhe family brothers and Kou Ji could not be driven.
The only people who could be driven by Kou Ji were Di Qing, a man from a grassroots background, and Yang Wenguang, a man who was not valued much by the court.
Of course, the Song Dynasty may have far more generals who are good at fighting than just a few of them.
Each general's family has sons who are good at fighting, but will they be driven by Kou Ji?
There are real heroes in the wilderness, but these people have not left a lasting mark in history, and Kou Ji doesn't know where to find them.
