Second Sister Nongmen has space

Chapter 99
Facing the general's anger, Zhao Tinglei did not back down with the five finger prints on his face, and said word by word: "Father, the third brother is from the Di tribe. He wants to find his own territory and regain the glory of the Wuda tribe." What's wrong?

The son is his eldest brother, so what's wrong with brothers helping him? "

"When the third brother didn't return to the grassland, the border was peaceful?

Didn't those Dilu people plunder the villages and towns of the border people? "

In Zhao Tinglei's view, there were countless tribes large and small in the Dilu Grassland, and there was no peace in normal times.

The third brother just returned to his homeland, even if the grassland was in chaos, it was an internal problem of the Di clan.

It is the Wu Dynasty army and the Zhenbei Army's responsibility to prevent the Dilu people from harassing, and it has nothing to do with the third brother.

As long as the guards in all places guard the border gates with due diligence, the impact on the lives of the people will not be great.

Seeing that his son was still making excuses, Zhao Yanjiao couldn't help shouting sharply: "You let Xiao San intentionally break up the Di tribe and make them become lone wolves. You are using the lives of people on the border to fight for your own future."

The wolves on the grassland are very scary, and the most frightening thing is the lone wolf who has lost its mother wolf and cubs when the wolf pack is scattered.

Break up the Di clan tribe, drive out the tribal men, and let them find their own way of life.

Those who have lost their homes and are desperate will go crazy and will do anything.

Driving away wolves and tigers is of course also mentioned in the Art of War.

But there are hundreds of soldiers and civilians in Pingliang Fort, as well as farmers in those villages, they are innocent.

Hearing his father say that he "uses his life to gain fame", Zhao Tinglei's face is cold and his eyes are complicated.

One will become famous and the bones will dry up!

At this time, he discovered that the majestic and majestic General Zhenbei in the past had turned gray at the temples under the ravages of the northwest wind and sand, and even his body under the military uniform could not hold up.

He is old, an old man who is almost sixty years old.

No one could believe that the general who once bloodbathed the Dilu Grassland, stepped on the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood to become a marquis, and sent his own sister to the position of queen, would say something that took human life into consideration.

Or the third brother said the truth, the father is old, the old horse loves the circle, the eagle returns to the nest, and the hero is old.

Although the Zhenbei Army is still stationed in Yunzhou, its right to speak in the court is gradually weakening.

Up to now, my father is still thinking about avoiding all risks and delaying the time until the prince in the palace ascends the throne.

He will be able to return to Beijing to be raised, and the status of the Zhao family will be below one person and above ten thousand people.

But can those people in the court give him this chance?
Zhenbei Army is a knife.

If the knife is not used, it will rust and be discarded.

Now the military power of the Zhenbei Army was divided by Tang Ying, and the food and supplies were delayed again and again.

This is not seizing power, this is clearly seizing a knife, if it drags on, the knife will be on the Zhao family's neck.

At that time, not only the status of the aunt in the palace and the crown prince will not be guaranteed, but the Zhao family will also end up being executed.

The third younger brother returned to the grassland, although he wanted to avenge his revenge, but he could also escape from the control of the Zhenbei Army and occupy a place on the Dilu grassland.

Now that the third brother has stirred up civil strife in the Dilu Alliance, if he doesn't take this opportunity to get rid of Tang Ying and regain the general power, the Zhenbei Army will be really in danger.

"Father, look at this!"

Zhao Tinglei took out a small bamboo tube from his sleeve, opened it, and pulled out a piece of paper with densely written small characters on it.

Zhao Yanjiao has been in charge of the army for many years, he is not a mediocre person, but he has too many worries and only handles things carefully.

After hearing of the loss of contact with Pingliang Fort, Zhao Yanjiao rushed to Leiziying overnight, just to fulfill his thoughts.

Seeing that it was indeed his two sons working together to make trouble, he immediately came to his senses.

He just thought that the killing on the border of the Wu Dynasty was caused by his own son.

As the Marquis of the Wu Dynasty, he couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart.

Seeing his son take out the secret letter at this time, Zhao Yanjiao raised his hand and asked Zhao Tinglei to get up and say, "You read it for my father!"

His eyes are presbyopic and he can no longer read fine print.

Zhao Tinglei brought a stool close to his father, and read in a low voice: "October [-]th, the prince fell into the water...October [-]th, the prince had diarrhea twice... On the first day of the winter month, the prince made a mistake in the duet in the court, and was beaten by the emperor. Punishment and confinement to the East Palace, on the fifteenth day of the winter month...the empress was ill, the imperial physician was late to see her, and the emperor never asked about her illness..."

These trivial things are trivial, but to Zhao Yanjiao's ears, they sound like a bell ringing loudly.

The younger sister lived in the deep palace, surrounded by wolves, and the prince was the target of everyone's criticism. The emperor didn't care about it.

The holy will is unpredictable!

What Zhao Yanjiao was most afraid of was that the crown prince would not be guaranteed. He took the note and held it in his palm, and said in a deep voice, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Zhao Tinglei lowered his head: "It's only this year that my son started to ask about the little things in the crown prince's womb."

The frontier is thousands of miles away from the capital, and it is troublesome to exchange letters. In the past, like his father, he put all his energy on the important officials in the court and paid little attention to the private affairs of the prince and queen.

What's more, the Zhenbei Hou Mansion lived in the capital, and the female relatives could visit the palace every month, so these men didn't take it seriously.

Why did no one mention these things in family letters?

Zhao Yanjiao regretted it.

I haven't been home for many years, and I have lost discipline to my son-in-law, which makes him indulge in poetry, calligraphy and painting every day.

Zhao Tinglei was silent, this is not his father's own fault, in order to prevent Zhenbeihou's mansion from being the emperor's master, and being hated by the emperor.

The second younger brother who stayed in the capital, the son of Zhenbei Marquis, only talked about love and moon, and didn't care about family affairs. He became the most famous young master in the capital.

Although such Zhenbeihou's Mansion lacks the suspicion of the emperor, it also lacks vigilance.

The prince is in danger.

That was Zhao Yanjiao's nephew, and also the hope of the Zhao family to continue their prestige.

The father and son finally sat down to discuss countermeasures.

"Father, the Pingliang Fort Guardhouse is under Tang Ying's subordinates. According to regulations, there should be 58 people in the guardhouse. The facilities in the castle are complete. If the soldiers are united, the Di tribe will need at least a hundred people to capture this fortress.

Father, do you think that the Di tribe tribe has been suppressed and dispersed by the Zhenbei Army for a long time, and they can't afford a hundred soldiers?The maximum number of people who can gather in a hurry is thirty or fifty, and Pingliang Fort is not in danger. "

Zhao Tinglei almost grew up in the northwest, and he has been to all the fortresses of the guards in Yunzhou.

If Pingliang Fort was stationed by the Zhenbei Army with rich experience in fighting against the Di people, it would take ten days for the opponent to capture and siege.

Ten days was enough for other reinforcements to arrive.

He said it with confidence, but he didn't have a bottom line in his heart.

What is stationed now is the Xuanwei Army dispatched from Gyeonggi, not his own Zhenbei Army. He is not sure whether these veteran soldiers can hold it.

Zhao Yanjiao felt that his son's analysis made sense.

The location of Pingliang Fort is very good, and the Di people may only be besieging it now, so there is no news.

His main concern is state affairs.

If the matter between Xiaosan and Ting Lei was found out by the court, it would be a serious crime of colluding with foreign enemies.

"Tell me first, how did Xiao San negotiate with you?"

State affairs, family affairs, and military affairs are all at stake.

If it's not done well, the people will be ruined and the country will be harmed. He can't harm the people of Yunzhou for his own selfishness.
