Chapter 302 Straight talk
Marquis Yongning stroked his beard.

The dispute between Su Zhi and Governor Namiao was obvious, ups and downs.

It was precisely because he couldn't bear the aggressive and chaotic command of Governor Miao that Su Zhi became more and more anxious, so that he made a mistake in his haste, and was caught by Da Zhou and took the Mingsha pass in one fell swoop.

"If this is here..." Mao Gu'an gestured with a knife.

Hands up and down.

People who know nothing still want to command him?

He is not that angry!
Marquis Yongning didn't answer this question.

Su Zhi has Su Zhi's difficulties, especially after suffering such a big defeat just now, one can imagine how much pressure the Xiliang court will have.

When taking advantage of the victory to pursue, of course, you can "generalize outside" and turn a blind eye to the messy command in Beijing.

But when the army was defeated, he couldn't get angry.

In particular, the warlords have already reached Mingsha Pass, and they are already buzzing in their ears.

Don't look at Mao Gu'an's fierce words now, when he was defeated in the previous battle, didn't he honestly hand over the command power to Feng Zhong?

Of course, there is a huge difference between the two situations.

Feng Zhong knows how to fight, he is not a fledgling young man, let alone a layman who has never read military books.

If it is really a nonsense, with Mao Gu'an's temper, he might really be unable to resist attacking him.

"Is the warlord dead, captured or escaped?" Marquis Yongning asked.

Mao Gu'an said: "I don't know yet, if I don't escape, I will be detained in Mingsha Pass."

Before that, they didn't know there was such a No. [-] person, and they didn't know what the other person looked like. Of course, they didn't look for it.

Whether it is life or death, you have to go to Mingsha Pass again to ask.

"There is one thing I can't understand," Marquis Yongning said slowly, "Su Zhi has stabilized the situation before, how could Xiliang suddenly send out an inexplicable warlord? It seems that the disputes among them are more serious than ours." Knowing is even better."

Mao Gu'an glanced at Qin Yin, then at Lin Fan.

With the two living examples in front of him, he now has a deep hatred for the villain who hinders him.

The civil strife among Xiliang people is a good thing for them in the Great Zhou Dynasty, but unfortunately, it is not much better for the Great Zhou court!

"Fucking rebellion!" Mao Gu'an cursed in a low voice.

Marquis Yongning winked at Lin Fan.

From his point of view, the Xiliang court would make such a mess, and even send out a military governor who knows everything in a daze, and nine out of ten of them were written by Grand Master Huang.

From the perspective of time, it is difficult to tell the sequence at the moment.

If Huang Taishi "forced" first, it would be a crooked attack. After taking Mingsha pass, they gave them a lot of leeway to deal with it.

But what if, knowing that the three prefectures are leaving the capital and the emperor is making trouble, Taishi Huang is still working hard in Xiliang...

Huang Taishi's choice is quite intriguing.

No matter what the purpose is, Grand Master Huang is willing to protect them, so the old grand master will definitely do his best to continue to deal with Beijing.

They must hurry up.

General Mao cursed again as if talking to himself.

After scolding, he said: "Just now Liu Ben chatted with me a few words, I heard it makes sense.

They had just successfully defeated Mingsha Pass, when morale was supposed to be at its peak, but this happened.

Old Hou Ye, you have been sitting at Feimenguan, so it's fine to stay here.

If Vice General Qin and Duke Dingguo don't continue to fight, in the eyes of the soldiers, wouldn't it be a 'real' rebellion?

The general is about to rebel, how can the soldiers below have the intention to fight Xiliang? "

Mao Gu'an walked around the camp just now, and there was a lot of discussion everywhere.

Unbelief, worry, anxiety, all kinds of emotions finally converged into "righteous indignation".

The imperial court, the officialdom, and the emperor are too far away from them.

The vast majority of people have never set foot in the capital city in their entire lives.

But they fought together with Yongning Hou, father and son, and Ding Guogong for several months.

There are also many veterans who followed Qin Yin to the battle more than ten years ago.

Friendship and trust built with blood are stronger than city walls.

Even the chief general can be accused of rebellion, and those officials in Beijing who are intriguing have never cared about the life and death of the soldiers at the border!

The emperor listened to the slander and issued such an imperial decree, how chilling it is!

Why do these soldiers who fight with their lives go to Xiliang for such officials and emperors?
Why? !

"If you lose your mind, you won't be able to take it with you." Mao Gu'an said.

Only by letting Lin Fan and Qin Wei fight, and letting all the soldiers see them and lead the troops forward, can the morale of the army be stabilized.

The Marquis of Yongning hadn't intended to really let Lin Fan and Qin Wei stay at Feimenguan. What he said earlier was just a step.

Since Mao Gu'an made the reasons so clear...

"The old man understands what you mean," Yongning Hou said, "I'll ask Feng Zhong and An Beihou what they think later, but..."

Mao Gu'an pricked up his ears, but he didn't wait for the second half of the sentence.

"But what?" General Mao asked after him.

Yongninghou looked hesitant and deliberative.

General Mao was impatient and urged: "Go, go, talk to me."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to grab Qin Yin's arm, and half pushed and half dragged him out.

Qin Wei wanted to follow, but seeing his old father waved to him quietly, he didn't stop him.

General Mao invited Marquis Yongning back to his tent.

Qin Yin takes his seat.

Mao Gu'an said: "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Marquis Yongning lowered his voice and said, "Do you know why the emperor wants the lives of the old man and Lin boy?"

"Isn't it that the demon way is making waves?" Mao Gu'an asked.

"If the emperor doesn't want to do something, it's useless to toss about the demon way." Yongning Hou said.

"What do you mean?" General Mao's eyes widened, "How did you offend the emperor?"

If you want to say that rabbits and dogs cook, there are indeed many from ancient times to the present.

But Xiliang has not yet settled down, and Nanshu has not yet been harvested, so there are many times to fight.

The emperor can't wait to kill the heroes?
The more Mao Gu'an thought about it, the more strange he became: "Does the emperor think the throne is too stable?"

"He can't sit still," Yongning Hou said, "He wants to strike first."

Mao Gu'an was shocked.

Pre-emptive?
Is it because he, a big bastard, didn't understand the usage of this word, or is it that Yongninghou is thicker than him, and he just doesn't know how to read?
"The imperial decree..." Mao Gu'an said.

"The old man was ordered by the late emperor to set things right." Marquis Yongning patted General Mao on the shoulder. "The emperor killed his brother to seize the throne first. If he is not in the court, if he doesn't correct it, the Great Zhou will not last long."

Mao Gu'an swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva.

In just one sentence, there was too much important information in it, which shocked him to the point of sparks.

"The first emperor's death? Killing brother?" General Mao asked.

"The prince fell off his horse on Mount Tai, and he was killed by the emperor," Yongninghou said, "It was an accident that Lin Xuan insisted on falling off his horse in the court hall in order to protect the princess and her unborn child.

Thanks to such a response, he was able to save the emperor's grandson and tried every means to hide it from the emperor.

Now, just can't hide it.

The old man must fulfill the entrustment of the late emperor before his death, for the sake of the first prince and Da Zhou. "

"What about the grandson of the emperor?" As soon as the words came out, Mao Gu'an bit his tongue, causing him to gasp in pain. A thought crossed his mind, and he said, "Don't tell me..."

　See you tomorrow~
