Chapter 159 Lin Gaoyuan's Little Thoughts

After hearing Zhao Wenhan's words, everyone thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Beijun is indeed more important to Great Xia, so it is impossible for Emperor Xia to watch Beijun be defeated, so it is inevitable to send troops to the north.

Didn't Emperor Xia send [-] troops northward last time?
Zhao Wenhan glanced at Chu Qinwu and Wang Hai at this time, and then said lightly: "Let's go, His Majesty is still waiting for us to discuss important matters."

After the words fell, Zhao Wenhan walked towards the side hall, Chu Qinwu and Wang Hai glanced at each other, and then hurriedly followed.

At this time, Wang Chengshuo came to Lu Shuyun's side. Seeing Lu Shuyun squinting at Zhao Wenhan's back, Wang Chengshuo said in a low voice, "Your Highness, I think what Prime Minister Zhao did is right. Since you can't stop His Majesty from sending troops north, why not Simply offer to support Beijun, in this way, how many troops to send to the north is a matter for the Ministry of War to participate in the discussion."

Hearing Wang Chengshuo's analysis, Lu Shuyun pondered for a moment and felt that it made sense.

It seems that Old Jiang is hot. If it was him, he would definitely find a way to prevent his father from sending troops north.

There are [-] heavy cavalry in Beijun, and what are they sending troops to the north? They hope that the [-] heavy cavalry will be disintegrated. Very thoughtful.

Lu Shuyun was a little lucky, fortunately, the old fox Zhao Wenhan was on his side.

Next, just wait for the result of their discussion.

About an hour later, Lin Gaoyuan came out of Emperor Xia's study first. He seemed much calmer today, unlike the last time he was suffocated by sending troops to the north.

Lin Gaoyuan quickly returned home.

It happened that Lin Xiuming was also at home at this time.

After seeing Lin Gaoyuan coming back, Lin Xiuming took the initiative to ask: "Father, when will I be able to go to the front line?"

The [-] army led by Lin Xiuming had just returned from Beijun not long ago, so when the war between Daxia and Dawu broke out, Lin Xiuming and the [-] army had been resting in the capital and were not sent to the front to fight Dawu. Xiu Ming felt a little restless in his heart.

After all, that man doesn't want to make contributions, and this is a national war, not like Beijun. The scale of this war is very large. Dawu has assembled an army of nearly 80, and Daxia has sent 40 troops to the front.

If he can make contributions in this war, Lin Xiuming's prestige in the army can be even greater, and his status can be greatly improved, so Lin Xiuming has been looking forward to the court's transfer of him to the front line.

Hearing Lin Xiuming's question, Lin Gaoyuan smiled, and then stroked his beard.

"You're going to the front line soon."

Hearing this, Lin Xiuming was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, "Really? How many soldiers does His Majesty plan to give me?"

Lin Gaoyuan said immediately: "Don't be too happy, His Majesty only intends to give you [-] soldiers, and your main task is not to fight wars, but to transport supplies."

Lin Xiuming was dumbfounded. He was a great general, so he was not allowed to go to the front to lead troops to fight, but let him do logistics?

Seeing that Lin Xiuming was stunned, Lin Gaoyuan continued, "Also, the front line I'm talking about doesn't refer to the battle in the west, but in the north."

"North...north?"

Lin Xiuming's face was full of confusion.

Isn't the war in the north already over? The tribe of Sirius King was demolished by the King of the North, and he just came back from Beijun. Why is there another war in the north?At this time, who dares to provoke the King of the North who has [-] heavy cavalry in his hands?

Lin Gaoyuan continued: "I just received the battle report when I went to the court. The king of North Korea led an army of 20 to go south. The king of the North sent a red silk messenger to ask for help from the court. Zhao Wenhan and the others think that the battle with Dawu is more important now, so I plan to send you to Beijun to deliver some supplies and assist the King of Bei to resist the King of Beixian going south."

After hearing what his father said, Lin Xiuming was a little confused.

You just came back from Beijun, and you're going to Beijun again?

What did he go to Beijun, and he went to Beijun to help Beiwang clean up the battlefield and carry the corpse?

The King of the North relied on the few soldiers in the North County, and even the 30 army led by the Sirius King could eat it, and the imperial court needed to send troops to go north.

Seeing that Lin Xiuming seemed a little unwilling, Lin Gaoyuan asked directly: "Why, you don't want to?"

Lin Xiuming came back to his senses, "Father, with those [-] heavy cavalry in Beijun, there is no need for the imperial court to send troops north, right?"

Lin Gaoyuan said: "You thought that you were sent to the north to resist the 20 army of the North Korean King. The imperial court sent you north just to stabilize the North King. After all, the North King sent a red silk messenger to ask for help. , Who doesn't know that the King of the North has extraordinary means and doesn't need the help of the court at all, your [-] soldiers are no different from the peasant soldiers in the transport team."

Lin Xiuming said unhappily: "It doesn't matter who is sent. Why do you have to let me go? I still want to fight against the Dawu Dynasty and make more military achievements."

Lin Gaoyuan laughed, and then said: "How old are you this year, what are you doing in such a hurry to make military achievements, look at Zhou Wangtian and Mu Changtian, which one will end well."

Hearing what Lin Gaoyuan said, Lin Xiuming was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that it is indeed not a good thing to have too much military merit.

Lin Gaoyuan touched his beard, and then said: "Now the ministers in the court and those aristocratic families basically think that the [-] heavy cavalry are His Majesty's private soldiers, but according to the news you brought back from Beijun, in my opinion, it can Let the national teacher go to Beijun in person, and ask you so many questions, which shows that His Majesty doesn't understand Beijun at all."

"There is a high probability that these [-] heavy cavalry only obey the orders of the King of the North. The King of the North is not a simple person. There is no harm in getting in touch with him more."

Hearing Lin Gaoyuan's words, Lin Xiuming was taken aback.

My father is very taboo about the matter of seizing the heir. No matter which prince came to see him, he always has the same attitude, that is, he resolutely does not stand for anyone, basically it is an attitude that has nothing to do with himself.

But today, his father actually let him have more contact with the Northern King. Doesn't this mean that his father is very optimistic about the Northern King, and the candidate for the crown prince in his heart is the Northern King?

Seeing Lin Xiuming looking at him in surprise, Lin Gaoyuan said, "What's your expression? There's something on my face or something."

Lin Xiuming came back to his senses, and then said: "Father, you really think that the King of the North may finally..."

Lin Xiuming didn't continue talking, after all, it's not convenient to discuss this kind of thing publicly.

Lin Gaoyuan said: "No one can say for sure, by the way, didn't you say that you saw Xiaoyun in Beijun last time?"

Lin Xiuming stayed in Beijun for so long, so he naturally heard about Xuanyue Palace opening a restaurant in Beijun. He also met Lin Wanyun and chatted a few words.

Lin Xiuming said: "Well, I heard that she seems to have been living in Beiwangfu."

Lin Gaoyuan pondered for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Although I don't know what Xuanyue Palace wants from the Northern King, but if your sister can become the Northern King's woman, you will be the best."

Er... this...

Lin Xiuming reminded: "Father, if I remember correctly, Sister Yun is in her thirties this year, and some children in their thirties are as old as Bei Wang..."

Although he didn't say it clearly, Lin Xiuming's meaning was obvious, that is, at Lin Wanyun's age, she could be the mother of the King of the North.

Lin Gaoyuan glared at Lin Xiuming, and then said: "You know what, Bei Wang has no mother since he was a child. People like him like mature women who are older than him. Look at Chu Yuqin, God The wolf king and princess are not so old anymore."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get ready."

"The food, grass and household department for the expedition has been prepared, and you will have to go north in no more than five days."

Lin Xiuming sighed and said nothing more.
