But in Xingqing Palace in Nannei, northwest of Chang'an City, there is an unusually dignified atmosphere. Especially in the Nanxun Hall of Xingqing Palace, which was used as a temporary Chinese army, there were all kinds of figures in armor and armor standing all over the place for a while.
As the military commander of Liangzhou, Lingyan (Shuofang) and Youshence, as the direct armed forces of the recruiting camp and the northwest platoon; as the main force of the western army, all the members of the Guiyi army’s main formation, Du Yuhou, The generals and soldiers and horses of Yaya; the guards and training envoys of Fanhan who originated from the 11th prefecture of Helong; even the remaining six leaders of the vassal Ministry of the People's Republic of China; and some miscellaneous names placed after entering the customs The generals in the military order are almost gathered together with mixed thoughts.
Between the whispers that each gathered into a small circle, they couldn't help but look at and pay attention to the rope in the center and the top, the figure that should have appeared long ago but has never appeared. It wasn't until a crisp bang suddenly sounded that they returned to the original breath-holding atmosphere amidst the uproar of discussion.
Then, the prime minister Zheng Tian, who was wearing only a simple purple robe with a bun and without a crown, also walked around the wall under the crowd; it seemed to be contained in his increasingly thin and wrinkled body, The huge power that people can't look directly at is the same as the power that can't attract them. Following Zheng Tian, who has walked to the rope bed but never sat down, swept his eyes over the generals on the spot, but it made people naturally short. , And even the breathing became lighter.
"Meet the old man..."
"The police are good..."
After a group of generals rushed to salute, they did not sit down as expected all day but stood there with their backs on their backs. With a thick and slightly hoarse voice, people were a little caught off guard and said:
"No need to be polite! Now that the Ling thief is here, inside Mingdemen, do you have any regulations and suggestions..."
"Since everything is obedient to the cousin's orders, I will do my best! A certain wish is the first mover..."
However, it was Qi Kejian, the leader of You Shence Xingying Zhonglang, who held his fist and shouted:
"What I want is the countermeasures and strategies to deal with the enemy, not the warriors who are on the battlefield... The loyalty and bravery are commendable, but it is not the time."
However, his fierce statement was immediately interrupted by Zheng Tian:
"The elders of the Tang elders thought that they should first make people ascertain the cause of the enemy's situation, and then calmly deploy the formation..."
As Qi Kejian retreated back into the array a little splendidly, someone remembered something else and then shouted:
"But before that, you must first assign powers and responsibilities, and treat people with integrity, so that you can't let the ling thieves take advantage of it!"
"Oh?"
Zheng Tianping Rong Wubo asked rhetorically: But this person seemed to have received great encouragement, and continued to move forward, arched his hands and said in a cut voice:
"Why did the ridge thief dump out from Lantianyu and easily drive them down for a long time? During this period, there were still fortifications and the fences were even camped, but they could not stop the enemy for a long time. On the contrary, the several troops that were rushing to the rescue have been defeated one after another, and they have always been brave enough to fight The Xizhou (Uighur) vassal cavalry is not immune to difficulties? Isn't it the merit of someone who fears the enemy and avoids the war and becomes self-sufficient, standing by and watching the soldiers..."
This remark suddenly caused a buzz in the audience. After all, compared to the miscellaneous men and horses who were retreated in the pass and reorganized along the way, the Pugu Tribe of Xizhou, which was known to be the most capable of fighting among the Uighurs, was also defeated. An example of the leader Gu Junqing was seriously injured and only paid back. , More able to touch them.
However, Li Mingda, the Jingnan Defense Formation envoy who was the first to bear the brunt of the crowd in the audience, could not help but his face changed almost to an erection, but he was firmly grasped by the other arm. He looked intently, but it was from the eldest brother Li Mingzhen, the governor of Langzhou, who shook his head blankly at him.
"It is true that this matter should be thoroughly investigated, otherwise, the people in the army who are greedy for life and fear death and look to the enemy to hear the wind will really feel uneasy in the hearts of the army, let alone do their best to serve the court..."
Later, there was Suo Xun, the deputy envoy of the rebel army who was recruited by the Hexi camp, and the gray-haired veteran of the rebel army, you Changshi, and the supervisory official Zhang Wenche stood up and said:
However, after hearing this sentence, the majority of the generals present at the scene were mostly from the right, frowning or sneering and murmured. Some people couldn't help but ask:
"Zhang Xiantai, how do you say this?"
"It's really good for Li Bingshi to expose the action! Such a fearful person, wouldn't it be that the hidden worries and disasters in my king's division are hidden, and that they can be eliminated earlier to face the ridge thief without any worries!"
Zhang Wenche said without hesitation:
"If you want to investigate, you must thoroughly investigate it to the end. It's best to start from the many scenes of fighting against various bandits after entering Gyeonggi..."
As soon as these words came out, the generals present were in an uproar. For a while, most of the generals, including the person who spoke before, their complexions didn't look so good. After all, just sit back and watch things like preserving your strength, and if you just don't care about it, how many people are there who can truly guarantee that they can be alone without being contaminated
At this time, Li Mingzhen let go of his hand and let Li Mingda, who understood his mind, stand out from the crowd and make his debut:
"Msang Gong, the situation in Jingnan is rotten, and the subordinates cannot escape from their own crimes. I also ask the children of Hezhou and Gu Zang to start interrogation and strict handling... But if there are people who have escaped, please Yan Ming military law to rectify people's hearts... "
However, at this time, someone stood up half-truth and muddled:
"Zhang Fangfen, you're just arrogant! Hezhou and Gu Zang are vying to get ahead of the enemy. They only have the courage to die when their chests die and die without a wound. Who knows who doesn't know how to call them?"
However, there are some people who don't want to see this incident being easily obscured, but there is the leader/general of Anxi Uighur who is one of the three Uighur surnames, Dengzhi Yehu, who couldn't help but whispered in a weird yin and yang voice:
"The aunts under the Li family are brave and brave, but they have never been merciful to the old grudges, right!"
"Dengzhi child, what do you mean,"
A young soldier next to Li Mingda couldn't help but said angrily:
"That's what it means... If there is a chance to see death and fail to save, is it possible that your generation will ignore the predecessors? Don't be anxious..."
Dengzhi Yehu retorted unceremoniously:
And the words of Dengzhi Yehu seemed to detonate a certain taboo topic and the contradictions and emotions that have been suppressed; it turned into a personal attack of mutual swearing, and fierce disputes with red faces and red ears. And scrambled to rebuke the old accounts. Suddenly, all kinds of new and old grudges, all kinds of grievances, all sorts of grievances, all seemed to burst out in the next moment in the form of swords and soldiers.
Until the once-ignored voice sounded again:
"enough.."
They suddenly realized that they were busy and stopped, and they all confessed in unison:
"But listen to the instructions of the old man..."
"What the old man wants is a countermeasure against the enemy, not to listen to your women's provocations in the market..."
Zheng Tian looked at the pillars of these countries and the pillars of the court with cold eyes, and said slowly and carefully:
"The subordinates are rude, please also punish me..."
Most of these pillars dared not look at them, and continued to bow their hands and sue:
"Punish you? What is the use of punishing you? Can it be possible for me to retreat, break the enemy, and share the worries of the present?"
Zheng Tian continued to say coldly:
"Old man, the servant thought that even though the Ling Thief is already in the south of the city, he is now giving his best priority to defeating the Huang Nican Thief in front of him.
At this time, someone finally remembered the topic, and cautiously opened his voice:
"how do I say this.."
Hearing this, Zheng Tian's unchanging face finally showed a trace of looseness, but he discovered that the enemy was the Western army after entering the customs and gathered the remnants of the Jingyuan soldiers who fled and hid in the area. They were re-armed and reorganized. The late Jingyuan Jiedu Wang Xingyu, the governor of Jingzhou/Tuan Practitioner who was born in Zhu Mei’s old ministry.
"Tang Lao Mingjian, but what is the so-called Xiaoling thief entering the customs now?"
Wang Xingyu, who was almost at the bottom of the job agency on the scene, was able to walk up from the fringe of the crowd, and then cautiously said in full view of the crowd:
"Naturally it is to rescue Huang Ni's false imperial court..."
Among the generals on the scene, someone interjected disapprovingly:
"The servants thought that this was just one of them. However, Lingqiu is known for being self-contained, and acting among thieves is also unprofitable,"
However, Wang Xingyu said unhurriedly:
"Therefore, the ministers and servants said that this eager rescue of Huang Ni is even more to inherit and accept the status of the pseudo-dynasty! After all, in the Kanto region, there are a large number of old family members left by the pseudo-dynasty and the status of thief There are more than a dozen families in the towns, this is where the ling thief wants to plan without hesitating to mobilize the army and the people to come and go!"
Hearing this, the generals present couldn't help but look at this unassuming and even humble Wang Xingyu, somewhat admiringly. And Zheng Tian also nodded his head, thinking of tentative approval, and solemnly said:
"In this way, it's a middle-of-the-road theory. Next, all soldiers and soldiers should take the lead in breaking through the remnants of Huang Ni and destroying the thief in the Ridge..."
Only after many arrangements were made, looking at the last name of the Tang Dynasty who seemed to be a little faltering when he left, and the frosty white color and deep sunken eye sockets on his head, some people finally realized this. It is like the old Zheng Tang, who is in control of everything, after all, there is still another side that he can't do or that people have exhaustion.
And Zheng Tian, who witnessed the farce on the spot, did not feel a trace of sadness and sorrow. He was surrounded by such powerful and powerful fighters with his own thoughts, but there were few schemes that could entrust his thoughts and trust. The pathetic. As a result, he is the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty consul, and he can only handle it as if walking on thin ice with both soft and hard control, otherwise he will suffer its backlash if he is not careful.
However, this kind of negative emotion was quickly and decisively and firmly forgotten by him. After all, he is almost sixty years old. Coupled with the exhaustion of running around these years, his body is already worse than before. I don’t know. How many appointments are left to live. Therefore, his only obsession now is to be able to see the emperor's holy car in the remaining years and return to the two capitals.
As if echoing his feelings, someone came to report secretly in the next moment:
"The report from Danfengmen, that Huang Gongbao has successfully entered the north interior..." (End of this chapter)
