Dou Kui immediately said: "The Emperor cannot trust the Sima family. Nowadays, Sima Lan can intervene in all the government affairs of the court. If Sima Changshen is allowed to gain military power in the army, the consequences will be disastrous." He sighed and whispered: "The country Sir, forgive me for speaking frankly, what Sima Lan lacks now is military power. If the Sima family really takes the military power in their hands, Xianguan... Xianguan is only worried that the Great Qin Dynasty will change its name."
Qi Ning's face darkened, and Dou Kui said hurriedly: "This official is talking nonsense, please don't blame me, Lord."
"But... this time I choose another general, can I dodge Sima Lan?" Qi Ning pondered for a moment, then whispered: "Chu Cangge is a close general of the Sima family, and Qu Yanzhi, the commander of the Xuanwu Camp, came from the Black Knife Camp. After being transferred, these two people are very close to the Sima family."
Dou Kui said: "Today Lu Xiao, the Minister of War, recommended Xue Lingfeng from the Tiger God Camp. I wonder if it was the emperor's intention? The emperor may have wanted to transfer Xue Lingfeng to the front line, but he was worried that someone in the court would stop him, so he came up with the idea. This is the way to go."
"I don't think so." Qi Ning pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Your Majesty is so wise. He must have thought that if Lu Xiao recommended Xue Lingfeng, the Sima family would also take the opportunity to get involved. You also saw it today. As soon as Lu Xiao recommended Xue Lingfeng, the Sima family threw out Chu Cangge and Qu Yanzhi."
Dou Kui was thoughtful, and after a moment, he said: "My lord, if the emperor really wants to dispatch generals from the court, please seize this opportunity."
"Chance?"
"The Qinhuai Army is already in awe of the Jinyi Qi family. If the Duke can fight to go to the Qinhuai Army, he can easily win over people's hearts." Dou Kui whispered: "As long as the Lord holds the Qinhuai Army in his hands, the Sima family I don’t dare to act rashly.”
When Qi Ning heard this, he finally understood what Dou Kui meant.
At first glance, it seems that Dou Kui is thinking about the future of the Jinyi Qi family, but in the final analysis, he just wants to protect himself.
Dou Kui bet all his wealth and life on Qining. Naturally, he hoped that the big tree of Qining would be as lush as possible. If Qining really obtained the military power of the Qinhuai Army, the Sima family would naturally be very afraid, and would use their brocade clothes to protect their families. As a backer, the Dou family can naturally be safer.
Qi Ning understood Dou Kui's thoughts, smiled slightly, and said: "Master Dou, whether the emperor's autumn hunt is really to select generals, no one can guess." He raised his hand and patted Dou Kui's arm: "The Emperor's Heart, we’d better not speculate without authorization.”
Dou Kui's lips moved, but he hesitated to speak. In the end, no words came out.
Qi Ning had nothing to do and rode Jinghong for a loop around Pinglin. However, when he approached the emperor's camp, he was not allowed to get close, so he turned back.
Jinghong is as fast as lightning. Now that he has been tamed by Qi Ning, Qi Ning also obeys his orders and is very obedient.
Qining saw that the entire periphery of Pinglin had been blocked by officers and soldiers, and sentries were set up along the way. It was naturally difficult to get in, but it was even more difficult to get out.
The soldiers and horses guarding Qiu Shou this time are elite soldiers drawn from the Royal Guards, Ping Lin garrison, Hushen camp and Xuanwu camp. There are thousands of people in total. The main commander of these soldiers and horses is naturally the Guards. Commander Chi Fengdian.
After Chi Fengdian arrived yesterday, he mixed the four battalions of soldiers and horses together, and then assigned four generals of the Guards to command four teams of soldiers and horses to station in the four directions of Pinglin.
Pinglin was less than a hundred miles away from the capital. Quick horses summoned him. Before evening, the three generals Chu Cangge rushed to Pinglin according to the order. After notifying the emperor, Longtai issued an order and blew the horn, and the ministers immediately gathered again.
"I have issued an order to tame horses today. Anyone who can tame a BMW will be given a BMW and will be promoted to the first level." Longtai looked at the three generals kneeling not far in front and said with a smile: "Jinghong has been tamed by Qining. However, no one has tamed Black Flash yet, so I sent a message to summon the three of you here to see what you three are capable of. I wonder if the three dear friends have the courage?"
The three of them looked at each other, and Chu Cangge cupped his hands and said, "I am willing to give it a try!"
"That's very good." Longtai looked up at the sky. The sun was setting and the afterglow was shining on the earth. He smiled and said: "It's getting dark soon, so we don't need to delay. Which of the three of you will give it a try first?"
Suddenly I heard Sima Lan step forward and say: "Your Majesty, I have something to report to you!"
Longtai said "Oh", and Sima Lan already said: "These three are all brave generals of our Da Chu. The old minister thinks that these three people have a chance to tame the Black Flash. In this way, whoever goes out first will win." If the first person to take the initiative tames the BMW, the next two people will inevitably feel unwilling to do so, and I think it is a little unfair."
The ministers present heard this and agreed in their hearts.
If Xue Lingfeng took the lead and tamed the BMW, then Chu Cangge and Qu Yanzhi would not even have a chance to tame the horse. It was indeed unfair to these two people.
The three of them are all powerful generals of the empire, and they are all commanders. There is no distinction between them in terms of status. There cannot be a dispute over who comes first and who comes last.
"Does the old man have any good ideas?"
Sima Lan said with a smile: "Your Majesty, since we want to be fair, I thought we could draw lots to determine the order of the formation. Take three bamboo sticks of different lengths. Whoever takes the longest one will be the first to appear in the formation, and the shortest one will be last. One after another, I don’t know what the Holy Spirit’s will is?”
"Yes, the old Duke is thoughtful." Longtai smiled and said, "Just do it according to the old Duke's wishes."
At that moment, a eunuch made three bamboo sticks of different lengths and walked up to the three commanders. In full view of everyone, the three commanders took the bamboo sticks one by one. Chu Cangge took the longest one, while Qu Yanzhi took the longest one. I took the shortest one.
Since Chu Cangge drew lots and got the first team, the other two people also retreated to the side, and the eunuch Yuma led Hei Shan up.
Qining had met Chu Cangge several times and knew that this man's martial arts skills were very solid. He thought that if Chu Cangge went all out, it would not be difficult to tame Black Flash.
Chu Cangge bowed deeply to the emperor, then turned around and walked slowly towards Hei Shan.
His steps were steady, and his iron-tower-like figure had an aura of bravery. He stood a few steps away from the black flash before he stood still.
The Black Knife Camp is stationed in the suburbs of Beijing all year round. Although everyone knows that the Black Knife Camp is almost equivalent to the Sima family's personal soldiers, the officials do not know much about the Black Knife Camp. The Black Knife Camp has always been very low-key, except for When Longtai ascended the throne, he was transferred to the capital and stationed for a while. What the officials remember most clearly was the ferocious Black Knife Battalion's iron hoofs during the Imperial Tomb Incident, which once confronted the Black Scale Battalion in Black Scale.
But Chu Cangge was different.
Everyone knows that the Black Knife Camp was built by Chu Cangge, and there were rumors that Chu Cangge could be regarded as the number one general in the capital.
In addition to his leadership talent, there is also his martial arts.
There are rumors that Chu Cangge came from the Jianghu, and when he took refuge with Sima Lan, he was already a top master in the Jianghu. Although everyone knew that the number one master in the capital was Ximen Wuhen of the Shenhou Mansion, Ximen Wuhen was not a military commander, so Chu Cangge was regarded as the number one military commander in the capital.
No one can make an accurate judgment whether the rumors are true or false, but there is no doubt that Chu Cangge is brave and extraordinary.
Chu Cangge was calm and calm, his eyes were slightly closed, and the setting sun shone on the man and the horse, but suddenly everyone had a strange feeling, as if Chu Cangge could easily tame Black Flash.
Chu Cangge finally moved.
He just walked towards Heishan step by step, walking very slowly. Heishan seemed to be forced back slowly by Chu Cangge's momentum. Everyone saw this and thought that Sima Lan, this confidant general, was really extraordinary. , no wonder he was entrusted with important tasks by Sima Lan.
The black flash retreated slowly. Chu Cangge suddenly quickened his pace, his steps getting faster and faster. He was no more than two or three steps away from the black flash. He kicked his feet violently and jumped up like an ape. Then his body was as if he was being caught. The wind blew and swept directly onto Heishan's horse, and actually landed on Heishan's horse with his back.
Heishan hissed, and Teng Sheng jumped up. Chu Cangge's body tilted and slipped to the side. Everyone screamed, but they saw Chu Cangge's legs clamped on the horse, and his arms stretched out on the ground. He used his strength to sit up, and took the opportunity to turn around. Before everyone could recover, they saw that Chu Cangge was already lying on the horse's back, with his arms wrapped around the horse's neck.
Chu Cangge was tall and tall, and his arms were longer than ordinary people. He hugged the horse's neck tightly with his arms, and his whole body seemed to be glued to Heishan's body at this time.
Black Flash spun and jumped on the spot, seeming to try his best to throw Chu Cange off him, but Chu Cange's posture did not change at all, always holding the horse's neck, while Black Flash's jumping range became smaller and smaller. After a while, it started to stagger, as if it was about to fall down at any time.
Qi Ning's expression was stern, and he could see very clearly at this time that he knew Chu Cangge's methods.
When Chi Fengdian went into battle to tame a horse, he used horse-taming skills, and he was very cautious when taming the horse. After all, it was a royal horse. When taming the horse, Chi Fengdian was worried about hurting the horse, so some of his movements were very restrained. .
Qi Ning used force to tame them.
When Qi Ning was in a stalemate with Jinghong, he inevitably used opportunistic methods. If it weren't for his strong inner strength and constant support for him, it would be almost impossible for ordinary people to use Qining's methods to tame Jinghong.
But Chu Cangge obviously took a different approach.
Chu Cangge's arms were wrapped around the horse's neck, and they were full of strength, as if they were holding Hei Shan's neck, making Hei Shan unable to breathe. His method was really overbearing, and because of the lack of breath, Hei Shan's strength gradually weakened. Unable to continue to resist.
This move is not only fierce, but also likely to hurt Hei Shan, but Chu Cangge obviously has no such scruples.
There were people around who saw clearly and frowned, thinking that as a soldier, he should cherish the horse as much as his life, but Chu Cangge's method of training the horse was really fierce, but the emperor's decree did not say that it was not allowed in advance. This tames BMW, so it’s really hard to fault Chu Cangge.
A moment later, a "boom" sound was heard, and Hei Shan fell to the ground. The expressions of everyone present changed greatly, thinking that Hei Shan would not be strangled to death by Chu Cangge.
