Prosperous advisors

Chapter 698 Beating, the five-day agreement (3)
Rong Jin snorted lightly and said lightly: "Since the military order has been issued, I can't pretend it didn't happen. What do you think should be done?"

"Leave it to His Majesty!"

"Very good." Rong Jin nodded in satisfaction, and said with a smile: "In that case, I'll give you five days to pay off your merits by falling into the water. Of course... As for the rest of your punishment, it will be after you take down the water." Right. But, if you still can’t get it after five days, you will blame Bie Zhen for not teaching me!”

Everyone was overjoyed, originally thought that today would be unlucky, after all His Majesty's character is really not tolerant.Now there are still five days left for them to pay off their crimes, so they are naturally very happy.They said in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Rong Jin nodded, "Get up, let's get busy. By the way, I'll tell you. The guard of Cangshui City is named Guan Zongping, the Huwei General of Huaguo more than 20 years ago. Go."

Everyone's jaws dropped suddenly, and the expressions on their faces were distorted.For generals like them who are determined to prosper on the battlefield, they usually start studying famous generals from various countries when they were young.And Guan Zongping is naturally one of them. Even Nangong Jue of Xiyue is full of praise for his record of defeating the Northern Han army in three battles and three victories.It is said that Nangong Jue personally said that if Guan Zongping hadn't retired too early, Zhao Ziyu would definitely not be the No. 1 in China today.

"His Majesty……"

Rong Jin dismissed them indifferently, "What? Haven't heard of Guan Zongping or something?"

"Listen... heard..."

"If you've heard about it, go figure it out!" Rong Jin snorted lightly, a sinister chill came over his face, everyone couldn't help shivering, and rushed out.I'm afraid that if I'm a step too late, I'll be caught by the big devil.

Looking at the swaying curtain at the door, Mu Qingyi couldn't help laughing in a low voice, "Is this okay? I'm afraid these people are not Guan Zongping's opponents."

Rong Jin snorted softly, "So what if it's not? I've let this young master figure everything out for them, so what do you need them for?"

Mu Qingyi smiled and said the same thing.These young generals have very limited experience on the battlefield. It is also a good idea to have a veteran like Guan Zongping as their sharpening stone, and Rong Jin to watch over them so that no big trouble will happen.

Looking at Rong Jin curiously, he said, "I can be regarded as having a strong family background to be able to enter the officialdom, but the Ninth Young Master has obviously never been on the battlefield, but he dispatches troops and generals as well as a famous veteran. Why is that?"

Rong Jin looked at her triumphantly. If there was a tail behind him, it would definitely stick up to the sky, "My son... is very talented, a genius like heaven."

Mu Qingyi was speechless, she wouldn't be ashamed to boast so much.Ninth Young Master's face... is really unmatched.

Early the next morning, the Xiyue army reorganized and completely lost the embarrassment of yesterday's defeat.Huo Yuanfang stood outside the city on horseback and continued to shout.

On the tower, an old man with gray beard and hair stood upright on the edge of the wall of the tower with a gun, looking coldly at the orderly lineup of the Western Army below.

"A few yellow-mouthed children who have just fledgling dare to show off in front of the old man!" Guan Zongping said coldly: "It seems that the lessons I taught them yesterday were not enough."

Beside him, the lieutenant-general whispered: "General, the Western Army was defeated just yesterday, and today it has recovered its morale and military capacity, and it is not affected at all. I'm afraid...it's not easy to deal with."

Guan Zongping nodded slightly and said: "It's really amazing. Compared with the army of the Northern Han Dynasty, the Xiyue soldiers and horses are probably not much better. It's just that this general... Hehe, the really powerful ones are probably still hiding behind and refusing to come out. "Guan Zongping is also a generation of famous generals, how can he believe that among the 30 Western Vietnam Army, there are only a few young generals who seem to be novice?

The deputy general said: "The Xiyue Right Army is led by Xiyue Emperor Rong Jin himself. But Rong Jin has not been seen for the past two days."

Guan Zongping frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Although Rong Jin, the emperor of Xiyue, is still young, he is indeed a genius in the sky, and his marching formation is no less than that of a veteran. It is indeed difficult to deal with. Cangshui... is too young after all. It's gone." The water is too small, and there are no dangerous barriers to defend, and even the city walls are not very strong because it is in the hinterland of Huaguo.They might be able to stop the Xiyue Army for ten and a half months, but it is simply a pipe dream to rely on this small city to stop the Xiyue Army.Without any tactics and tactics, even if the Xida army directly attacked them with their lives, it would not last long.

"Just received the news that His Majesty has ordered the King of Anxi County to lead an army of 50 troops to the north to stop King Lie of the Northern Han Dynasty, and ordered to send 30 troops to support various passes in the south." The deputy general hesitated and comforted: "The reinforcements should arrive soon. Are you coming? General, don’t worry.”

The smile on Guan Zongping's face was a bit bitter, and he shook his head and said, "Don't you understand? Even if His Majesty sends 100 million people to support, there are not many who can reach Cangshui City. What's more... Cangshui is too small, it is not suitable at all. A decisive battle with the West Great Army. If His Majesty is serious, he should immediately order all the armies to gather in Yuyang City, 130 miles away. The terrain there is complicated, but it is open. Maybe there is still a battle against the West Great Army."

The deputy general hesitated for a moment, "This... general, how about writing a note and sending it to His Majesty?" Although this deputy general was not a subordinate who followed Guan Zongping in the early years, he was still the same for this old general who had been demoted by Huahuang for 20 years. I am very impressed.Naturally, he was very convinced of his strategy, and at the same time felt faintly worthless for this old general.

Guan Zongping smiled bitterly with a touch of sadness, and slowly shook his head.It's not that he doesn't want to write notes, but...Hua Huang doesn't even read the notes written by demoted veterans like them.Just like when the Gu family was ransacked and beheaded, he wrote a few notebooks to express his love for the Gu family, but there was no response at all.Originally, he only thought that the emperor would not send it, but later he learned from a few old friends that they couldn't even send their papers to the imperial court.Perhaps it was precisely because of this that he escaped unharmed.Just be honest, none of the people who pleaded for the Gu family back then had a good end.

When he was young, he was high-spirited, and his achievements on the battlefield were too much for Hua Huang, who was already troubled and the feats of his courtiers were too much, making him seem to be doing nothing.If it weren't for the Anxi County King and Gu Xiang Gu Muyan pleading for mercy, Guan Zongping would have already turned into bones.Six years ago, after Gu Xiang was raped and beheaded by his family, he was even more disheartened.Originally planned to disband and return to the land after two years of old age and weakness, but he didn't want Xiyue and Northern Han to join forces to invade Huaguo, and the war broke out again.

"Your Majesty will not hand over the army to someone who has been reprimanded by him." After so many years, Guan Zongping still has a little understanding of His Majesty Huahuang.What we are doing now is just wanting us to hold back the footsteps of the Xiyue army, and wait until the Anxi County King frees up his hands to turn around and then deal with Xiyue. Perhaps it is also because His Majesty does not take Xiyue seriously at all.But why doesn't His Majesty think about it, the king of Anxi County...is only in his early twenties, although he is young and promising...but he may not be able to stop the army of the Northern Han Dynasty, so what will happen then?
