Please, let me be a fool

Lin Chong didn't know how to deal with it.

Reporting directly to His Majesty is definitely not acceptable, even if you have doubts.

Because recently, he can see that His Majesty trusts Wang Jin very much.

If he confronts His Majesty directly, maybe he will be punished by His Majesty.

If the opponent can even get on the marching dragon chariot.

This is no longer an ordinary trust.

So you have to find the most suitable and safest way.

Of course, in his heart, it's not that he didn't think about it. In fact, Wang Jin didn't have any problems, but he felt that the chance of this was not high.

Otherwise, why did the other party keep sneaking around?
"Forget it, if you can't find a way."

"Let's wait until Zhennan Pass first."

Finally, Lin Chong made up his mind.

Now it is not very far from Zhennan Pass, and it is still in the process of marching. When the army is completely stabilized, or in the back, I have collected more information before making plans.

And in his heart, he also thought of a general method. It is definitely not possible to do this kind of thing alone.

But it can't be spread, otherwise it will affect the Southern Expedition, so be careful.

Therefore, even if you want someone to help, you must find someone you can trust.

Immediately, Lin Chong stopped thinking about it.

Still the same as before, he rode his horse forward and headed towards Zhennan Pass with the army.

Zhennan Pass is said to be a pass, but to be precise, it is a big city. There are everything in other places, but this place also has everything. After all, the southern border is different from the northern border. The southern border is prosperous and has more permanent residents.

Therefore, even though Zhennanguan belongs to a military city, it is very lively on weekdays.

It is fundamentally different from the solemn atmosphere of Zhenbei Pass in the northern border.

Zhennanguan City.

Various vendors, shops, etc. are also open all year round.

Because the main defense of Zhennan Pass is Baiyue. Although Baiyue is difficult to conquer, in terms of combat power, it is not as good as the grassland tribes. Especially since Zhennan Pass was established, it has never been breached. precedent.

Therefore, the people in the city basically don't have a great sense of crisis, and they live how they want to live.

Unless Baiyue really has a massive attack, then the defenders will directly control the entire city.

But today.

Zhennanguan City is extremely quiet.

Especially on the main street, the merchants who are usually open for business are all closed at this time. In the whole street, there are no idlers except soldiers holding spears and lined up neatly.

The current guard of Zhennan Pass, Lu An, led his generals and lieutenants to stand at the north gate.

These people raised their heads one by one, looking at them from time to time, with anxious expressions on their faces from time to time.

"General Lu, is it today? Why haven't you arrived yet?"

At this time, next to Lu An, the guard at Zhennan Pass.

A middle-aged man came out and asked.

He was wearing a Confucian gown, which was a bit out of place with the generals in armor around him.

But this person can stand beside Lu An, so it is conceivable that his status is relatively high.

This middle-aged man is the military advisor of the Zhennan Pass Guards.

The name is Wang Lin.

Since being appointed as a military adviser by Lu An, he has offered advice many times to help the Zhennanguan garrison and Baiyue win many victories in the battle. Sometimes, he can predict the position of the Baiyue army with clever calculations.

It is precisely because of this that Lu An attaches great importance to him, and almost always asks the other party's opinion on major and minor matters.

At this moment, after hearing Wang Lin speak, he nodded and said, "Although there was a delay on the road, the news has already arrived, so there should be no problem at this hour."

When everyone heard the words, they didn't say anything more, but began to wait quietly.

In this way, time passed bit by bit.

at last.

After about half an hour.

On the distant horizon, a long black line appeared.

At the same time, bursts of loud and dull voices emerged.

It was a sound that could only be made by at least tens of thousands of horses, shaking the entire land.

At this time, all the guards of Zhennan Pass headed by Lu An were shocked and looked at the thickening black line in the distance.

After a while, that black line turned into thousands of horses and horses. Although it was not a sprint, the formation was very large, raising huge dust.

This is the army that marched south to Baiyue.

However, the army did not completely approach Zhennan Pass, but stopped a few hundred meters away.

In the center of the army, a chariot carved with dragons and phoenixes and pulled by six horses appeared at the forefront.

Next to him, there was a well-known general, followed by a civil servant in court uniform.

Confucianism has the six arts of a gentleman, and riding is one of them.

Although civil servants do not need to go to the battlefield, some skills are necessary.

The civil servants are headed by Song Gongwen, the head of the dynasty, the cabinet scholar, and the household secretary.

soon.

The dragon chariot stopped.

Song Gongwen, the highest official in the army this time, rode his horse out instead of the general, looked at Lu An and the others at the front of the army, and said slowly: "Your Majesty is personally marching, approaching the South Pass of the town, kneel down to welcome him!"

The voice fell.

The sound of beating drums appeared solemnly and solemnly.

The generals headed by Lu An didn't hesitate at this time, and knelt down on one knee: "My minister, Lu An, leads all the generals in Zhennanguan to welcome Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!"

Afterwards, everyone knelt down, including the generals and soldiers who were already on the top of the city. They all said in unison, "Long live the mountain."

This is the emperor's personal conquest, no matter who it is, it must be greeted with the highest etiquette.

This is the majesty of the Son of Heaven, supreme and inviolable.

"Excuse me."

At this time, Wei Yunyi's voice came from the dragon chariot.

But he didn't come out, he just spoke in the car, his tone was flat, and he continued: "Go into the city."

A mere group of guards at Zhennan Pass, who was not worthy of being an emperor, stepped directly off the dragon chariot.

If it were Zhenbeiguan, the group headed by Marquis Shenwu would be about the same.

of course.

The important thing is that Wei Yunyi doesn't want to do those red tapes anymore, it's a waste of time, it's better to go directly to the palace.

Because just an hour ago, Wang Jin said that everything in the palace had been arranged.

Coupled with the exhaustion of the journey, he also wanted to take a good rest.

And after he spoke.

Lu An and the others quickly stepped aside and stood beside them.

In Zhennanguan, these people are the heavens, and they cannot be offended, but now, they are just courtiers.

In this way, the dragon chariot moved forward slowly and entered Zhennan Pass.

As for the arrangement of the army.

Wei Yunyi ignored it, and just handed it over to his generals.

Although it was a personal conquest by the royal driver, he didn't need to do everything by himself. Besides, he knew that he was too weak to handle it at all. Since he had people under his command, what would he do by himself?

"General Lu."

After the dragon chariot enters the city.

Song Gongwen rode his horse and came over with Lin Yuansong and several generals.

"I have seen you, my lords, and my colleagues." Seeing the person, Lu An quickly bowed and said respectfully.

General Zhennanguan, in terms of rank, can only be called a general, not a general, and is one level lower than the general Zhenbeiguan.

But even so, the position in the army is considered very high, and there are many generals present who can't compare with it, but the problem is that these people are all following Wei Yunyi's imperial conquest, with the majesty of the emperor.

Only when the army is completely settled down can he suppress some people with grades.

In addition, Song Gongwen, a cabinet scholar, was present.

A senior member of the imperial court.

There is also the name of Guozhang, I am afraid that even the generals like Sizheng and Sizhen will have to greet him after seeing him, and Lu An, although he is called Zhennan General, but his rank is really Siping General,

The word town is only used because of the special location of Zhennan Pass.

Of course, except for the position of Marshal.

However, this level can only be held by someone who is of great importance in the imperial court, such as Marquis Shenwu, who was named Marshal of Zhengbei University by Wei Yunyi at the beginning.

"General Lu, you don't need to be polite." Song Gongwen smiled, and then said: "Your Majesty personally marched, and 20 troops entered Zhennan Pass. Next, you and I will probably work together for a while. You are Zhennan General. According to the usual practice, You will be the main general of the Southern Expedition during the personal expedition, so the next arrangement for the army will be made."

The descendants who accompanied the army in Nanzhen were all guards drawn from various places, and their grades were not high.

Wei Yunyi's personal conquest can be regarded as the coach.

And in the absence of a designated leader.

Generally speaking, the general with the highest rank under him will be in charge.

In addition, Lu Annai is the chief general of Zhennan Pass, and he can be regarded as the second person in the army.

As for Song Gongwen, it is true that he has a high status and important status, but he is only a civil servant after all, and the matter of fighting has basically nothing to do with it.

However, Lin Yuansong, who is the minister of the Ministry of War, can participate, but he does not have a decisive fist.

So what Song Gongwen said was absolutely correct.

"Don't dare."

At this time, Lu An bowed slightly, was polite, and then continued: "But this time, I have already arranged the place where the 20 troops are stationed, and if the two adults have no objections, it will be carried out like this. "

After speaking, he took out a document from his sleeve and sent it over.

Song Gongwen didn't speak, nor did he move.

The arrangement of the army.

He didn't want Chao Yue to point fingers.

So Lin Yuansong took the document, glanced at it, and said: "No problem, the general will arrange it."

Immediately, everyone discussed some details.

Lu An took his men and began to arrange the 20 troops.

As for Song Gongwen and Lin Yuansong, they rode their horses and followed the dragon chariot into the city.

"This General Lu, although he has never been under the old Lord Hou, he is also a rare general. He has guarded the southern border these years, devoted himself to his duties, is loyal, and has fought with the Baiyue people for many years. experience."

"Apart from the Northern Territory, Master Wu Siyue, the champion of Gaoyang, and General Zhao along the coast, this General Lu is the most powerful. Let him be the main general, there must be no problem."

On the way, Lin Yuansong glanced at Lu An who was giving orders at the gate of the city, and said with a smile on his face.

As Minister of the Ministry of War, although he is not in charge of military affairs, he certainly knows the generals of the Great Wei very well.

Next to him, Song Gongwen nodded after hearing these words: "General Lu is very experienced and has a good record. It's a pity that my Great Wei puts the most emphasis on defending the northern border, followed by Usi, and the southern border. General Lu, I'm afraid he can be promoted to a general."

The military focus of the Great Wei is well known. There are eighteen grassland tribes in the northern border, which pose a great threat.

The generals guarding there must not only have high status, but also must be talented.

Wusi is because there is such a big country as Tiandu.

Although with the Great Wei, they don't often fight.

But as the saying goes, between countries, there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests.

That's why the first emperor made Yue Ziyi, who was so trusted, but also extremely skilled in military affairs, to be Us Duhu.

As for the southern border, its importance is only higher than that of the coastal areas, which is why Luan's military rank is not very high.

Of course, if he is transferred to the northern border, it is not without problem to become a general.

As for Lin Yuansong, his evaluation of this person is also quite good.

Loyal and capable.

With such a general, the southern expedition to Baiyue should not be a big problem.

Of course, military issues have nothing to do with either of them.

They just need to make sure that there is no problem in the rear.

The placement of 20 troops is a very troublesome thing, and ordinary people can't handle it at all, but Lu An has been in the army for many years and has experienced many battles, so it is natural to do this kind of thing.

So before night fell, everything was dealt with.

but.

Because Wei Yunyi had already explained it before.

There is no need to report back for general chores, so Lu An didn't go to see him.

After all, I thought that by tomorrow, when all the troops were deployed, His Majesty would have to review the troops, and it would not be too late to report these things by the way.

In this way, as time passed, Zhennan Pass once again returned to its previous quiet appearance.

Because now the army that Yujia personally conquered has just arrived.

It can't be done in one day.

So today, for the army, it is a rest time.

And in Zhennanguan City, a huge mansion located in the east, to be precise, is outside the palace.

Lin Chong, the commander of the imperial battalion, has arranged for his men to send additional guards to various places.

The Imperial Guard is the last line of defense to protect His Majesty.

Naturally, it is impossible to be sloppy.

However, after these things last night, Lin Chong did not rest, but stood in a corner.

In front of him was an imperial guard with his head down, as if he was reporting something.

"You mean, the people from Dongchang found dozens of dancers in the city."

"Sent it to His Majesty's palace?"

now.

When Lin Chong heard the report from his subordinates, there was still a trace of anger in his brows and eyes.

In fact, he doesn't need to take care of this kind of thing, but the question is, when is it now, when the army goes south, His Majesty will personally march, and the court and the people all over the world will be watching.

But at this time, the people from Dongchang actually found dozens of dancers outside and sent them to His Majesty's palace.

What does Wang Jin want to do?Do you want to indulge His Majesty in beauty and pleasure?
If it gets out, it's His Majesty's wisdom.

Wouldn't it be destroyed once?
