Chapter 429: Make him a general

Chen Zhongyan glanced at her: "Of course it's possible. In the northern states and counties, and in the south except Jingzhou, Yunzhou, Xuanzhou and Chongzhou, there are officials related to us. The general is still loyal, and the hussar general is also very important in the military camp. Influential ones. If anyone has ulterior motives, there is no need to be polite to them."

Yue Zidan's expression became more solemn: "How can we allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the bed? The Chen family brothers were in prison a few years ago."

Chen Zhongyan said: "But they returned home safely. In fact, many years ago, we were worried that something bad would happen to my eldest sister and brother-in-law. Now that they have come to this point, the higher-ups are also trying to stop them."

"Then there will be no mercy."

There will definitely be action.The imperial court sent Marquis Anping over again and told Chen Zhongyan directly to dedicate the land on the other side of the mountain to the imperial court.

Chen Zhongyan was very direct: "That place is not my territory. How could I be the master there? The Duke of Zhen Guo was tricked and removed from his military power as soon as he came out. Do you think you are stronger than the Duke of Zhen Guo? Still big?"

Marquis Anping disagreed: "He has military power, but I don't have military power. What's so scary?"

"Don't you still have the title of Marquis? If you lose this position, everyone in your house will have a hard time."

An Buhou was extremely angry: "Where are Chen Fan and Zhang Ci? There is no one in the house over there."

Chen Zhongyan spread his hands: "How do I know? I didn't tie them with a rope. As a commoner, you can go wherever you want."

Anpinghou refused and said, "Take me to the other side of the mountain to have a look."

Chen Zhongyan chuckled: "There is a cement road over there, you can go there. Let's have a cup of tea and chat. How did the soldiers who went back report what happened on the other side of the mountain?"

"No comment."

"Oh, I'm sorry I won't accompany you. I'm seeing you off."

"Aren't you worried about the safety of Chen Zhongpur and Chen Zhongmei?" Anping Hou shouted sharply.

Chen Zhongyan patted his chest: "It scared me to death. It was so loud. Last year, the Duke of Zhenguo told me to take it down. What do you mean by that? Don't mention them to me. They are not brothers to me. You can kill me or chop me into pieces. No one in the world will scold me."

"They'll say you're willing to die."

"Pull them down, everyone in the capital will know who captured them." Chen Zhongyan tossed his sleeves and left. Yin Can picked up the collar behind his neck and sent him out.

Chen Fan and Zhang Ci are busy with government affairs, and Yue Zidan is the temporary secretary.

Hwaseong sent several delegations to visit each camp castle.Those who intend to seek refuge will talk about the distribution of benefits and arrange government affairs; those who have no intentions will not force it.

One of the fortresses was very irritable and drew swords on the delegation.But they were facing Qingji and Xiangjian, and there were some secret guards outside the village.In the end, that walled city was conquered by force.This had a certain deterrent effect on various cities and leaders.

Yue Zidan watched the forces by the lake gradually merge into Huacheng, feeling happy and worried at the same time: "I wonder how the Four Nations will respond. Will they join forces?"

Chen Fan took a sip of jasmine tea: "They may not be so united. The Qiao Kingdom watched us take over all the mountainous areas, and there was no movement. This land is no longer so important to the strategic position of the Lu Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom. Even if it is occupied, it will not be able to cross the country of Qiao and the Yangtze River. The country of Chu is the smallest, and it cannot bear torment."

Yue Zidan sighed: "Perhaps I have a shadow. In recent years, there have been few times when I have not been worried. When asking for food, it is very difficult; when fighting for territory, it is very dangerous; I am even more afraid that my husband will be... If the people around you find any traces, come back and kill them all." Chen Fan held her hand: "My sister-in-law has suffered these years, and she will get better in the future. Chen Zhongyan and Zhang Ci have a much better grasp of the situation than I do. They dare to do it Yes, it must be possible.”

Yue Zidan smiled: "It seems that I am not confident enough in my husband. I should be more confident."

The war in the north ended in less than three months. The menacing Beihu army suffered repeated heavy losses and had to order a retreat.Chen Zhongzhu had superb archery skills and repeatedly offered good advice, and accumulated some military exploits.

Chen Fan couldn't control his lips, they always curled his lips to both sides.Zhang Ci pinched her face: "You can't laugh like this, right?"

Chen Fan stepped on him.

Beihu had to retreat, but the general who defended the city did not execute the order to pursue the victory.After fighting for several months, the soldiers and civilians were extremely exhausted.If the infantry pursues the cavalry retreating in an orderly manner, the lethality is too weak and the risk is too high.

But there were cronies of the emperor and people from other forces in the army.There was a general who led 2 people out of the city to pursue him, but was killed by a team from the opposing team.

The infantry on the plains could not withstand the iron hooves of the galloping horses. Even if the people in the front row chopped off some horse legs, a large number of fierce horses would brutally trample the bodies of the soldiers.Chen Zhongyan was also in the team, and Chen Zhongliang fired several cannonballs in desperation.

Countless shrapnel exploded in the team, and people and horses fell in pieces. Many horses were frightened, fled in all directions, and trampled down another piece.

Many Xia soldiers ran back screaming, and the general panicked.Chen Zhongzhu shouted loudly: "Kill them - take advantage of their heavy casualties and chaos, kill them -"

Some brave soldiers reacted immediately and rushed forward with shouts; some soldiers were inspired and also stepped forward to kill the enemy.The situation immediately reversed. The Xia soldiers cut their arms until their arms were sore and the blades of their knives were blunt. Then they collapsed on the ground one by one and watched the scattered Beihu soldiers flee into the distance.

The general ordered to look at the bodies of Beihu soldiers and collect some things that injured them.The soldiers touched some and said they looked like scraps of iron.

"What broke into pieces? What made the loud noise and the fire?" The general asked repeatedly, but no one answered.

"Is God helping us?" A soldier said tentatively.

The general glared at him: "If it falls on our side, God is punishing us? Why should he punish us?"

The soldier lowered his head and dared not make a sound.

The general packed some clothes with mud and iron pieces and took them back, and sent people around to look for clues.

Zhang Ci and the others haven't received the news from here yet, they are just thinking about when the army can return in triumph.

In the heavy snow season, the army arrived outside the capital, and the emperor led all the civil and military officials out of the city to meet them.This war wiped out 10,000+ troops of Beihu, which is a rich and colorful stroke in the history of Xia Kingdom.The incident of Tianlei was also spread by the people as a miracle.

The emperor's congratulatory message activated the enthusiasm of the people, and the whole capital was celebrating the victory.When discussing meritorious deeds and rewards in the main hall, the emperor felt complicated.

The Chen family, a group of refugees, appeared one after another.Today, Chen Zhongliang is the only one left in the Chen family who has no fame or achievements.But is he really as naughty as he appears?He disappeared for a while, and what did he do?
In full view of everyone and with black and white writing on the paper, the emperor could not deny Chen Zhongzhu's military exploits, so he could only grit his teeth and make him a general and grant him a general palace.

Back in the imperial study, the emperor thought of Anpinghou who had returned without success, and became even more angry. He caught the fault of his unworthy son and cut off his title.
