Stunning weapon

After Lin Feng came to the front camp, Cao Cheng was very enthusiastic. He really didn't want to be an enemy of Mo Xiaochuan.However, this kind of enthusiasm is only on the surface, but in his heart he looks down on Lin Feng.

Therefore, even though the words were very polite, they did not allow Lin Feng to sit down.

Lin Feng didn't mind either, and raised his eyes to look at the surrounding environment.Cao Cheng's big tent is slightly larger than Mo Xiaochuan's big tent, but the furnishings are very simple. There is a person standing next to the main seat, looking at Lin Feng with deep guard and even hostility.

Lin Feng had investigated Lan Chengyu a long time ago, so he also knew who this person was. It was Lan Chengyu's son, General Lan Shen.This person's status in the frontline camp is far inferior to that of Chang San, and he can't shake Mo Xiaochuan.Therefore, Mo Xiaochuan didn't plan to deal with him, as long as he didn't provoke him, he didn't bother to pay attention to him.

"Deputy Commander Cao. This time, I'm here under the order of the prince to discuss something in detail." Lin Feng said, and glanced at General Lan Ginseng, the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Lieutenant Lan frowned and glared at Lin Feng.Lin Feng did not evade, and still looked at him with a smile on his face.

Cao Chengdao: "There are no outsiders here, but Guard Lin said it's okay."

Lin Feng shook his head, and said: "My lord, I can only tell Deputy Commander Cao about this matter. If someone else is present, I can only go back."

Cao Cheng couldn't help showing displeasure on his face, but after thinking about it, maybe Mo Xiaochuan really had something important to do, so he said to General Lan Ginseng: "If that's the case, then you should step down first."

Cao Cheng has already spoken, and the blue ginseng will not be able to say anything more.He had no choice but to nod his head, and walked out of the tent. When he passed by Lin Feng, he snorted softly and gave Lin Feng a look.When Lin Feng saw that the blue ginseng general was like this, he couldn't help shaking his head slightly, but this person didn't have too much background.Can't help but underestimate him a bit.

After the blue ginseng general left, Cao Cheng's words were not as polite as before, and he said lightly: "Guard Lin, what do you want to say, can you say it now? The old man has something else, so guard Lin has to speak quickly."

Lin Feng didn't take it seriously, he just took out a picture from his pocket and handed it to Cao Cheng.

Cao Cheng showed doubts on his face, and took the picture.Before, I didn't care about it. If Lin Feng hadn't said that it was Mo Xiaochuan who asked him to send it over, I'm afraid Cao Chengcheng didn't bother to take a look at it. However, after a brief look, Cao Cheng's expression became more and more serious. In the end, I couldn't help taking a deep breath, and couldn't take my eyes off the painting for a long time.

After a long time, Cao Cheng raised his head and said, "Guard Lin, how did the prince get this picture?"

"Of course the prince made it." Lin Feng said flatly.

"Guard Lin, sit down!" Cao Cheng grabbed a chair and sat down, raising his hand to signal Lin Feng to sit down. ,

Lin Feng felt a little surprised by the rapid change in his attitude before and after.However, Lin Feng remained expressionless, and sat down as he said.

"What the old man means is, how did the prince get this information?" Cao Cheng asked.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Could Vice Commander Cao forget about the matter between my prince and Princess Yemen?"

Cao Cheng was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that Mo Xiaochuan robbed his relatives in the country of Yan back then. He even robbed Fang Xin's relatives for the sake of Ye Zhanyun's daughter. It's an exaggeration.

Mo Xiaochuan was in Yan country, how could he do this, didn't he want to die?

Hearing what Lin Feng said now, he couldn't help asking: "Could it be that the matter between the prince and Ye Xin is true?"

Lin Feng smiled slightly, and said: "Naturally, no one in the world knows about it. And this news was given to the prince by Princess Ye Xin. At the beginning, although the prince failed to take the princess away, he took the princess's Heart brought back, the prince always said that one day, he will bring the princess back. Does Deputy Commander Cao still have doubts about this? If he doubts, he should send someone to the country of Yan to investigate. This matter is not a secret at all, I believe it is easy to find out."

Cao Cheng smiled and said: "What did Guard Lin say? It's not that the old man doesn't believe the prince, he just asked casually."

"In that case, I will take my leave." Lin Feng stood up and cupped his fists.

Cao Cheng hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, Guard Lin. The old man has another question. Why would the prince give such a valuable thing to the old man instead of using it for himself?"

Lin Feng smiled slightly, and said: "Actually, before coming down, the prince already thought that Deputy Commander Cao would ask this question. The prince said it, and the reason is very simple. Vice Commander Cao is a smart person, so he must know it. Now the new The army's combat power is low, and it is the time for training. Although there have been achievements before, it is only by chance and luck. Soldiers of the new army cannot fight this kind of tough battle. Moreover, before During the camp, he accidentally killed Vice Commander Cao's favorite general, and the prince has been blaming himself for this, but he never had a suitable opportunity to apologize to Vice Commander Cao. This thing can be regarded as compensation for Vice Commander Cao."

Cao Cheng nodded slightly.

Lin Feng said again: "If Deputy Commander Cao doesn't believe it, he can send people to Yangu Mountain to investigate. It's not difficult to find out. However, the opportunity to fight is fleeting, so it's up to Deputy Commander Cao to decide what to do. I'm taking my leave..."

This time, Cao Cheng didn't stop Lin Feng, nodded and said, "Since Guard Lin has something to do, I won't keep you. After you go back, I'll wait for the old man to greet the prince."

"Yes!" Lin Feng nodded in agreement, and left Cao Cheng's big tent.

After Lin Feng left, Cao Cheng stared at the map for a while and was speechless.He is a veteran who has led the army for many years, so he can naturally tell the good or bad of the above strategic deployment at a glance.Naturally, he could also see some of Mo Xiaochuan's concerns.I know that if this battle is to be fought, the emphasis is on speed and a strange word.Moreover, the loss must not be small. This time, if it is played well, it can even overwhelm Citigroup's limelight.

Hua Qichong lost in the battle with the barbarians, if he could succeed in raiding the northern camp.Under the ups and downs, there may still be a chance to fight for the position of commander. Of course, the commander of the frontline battalion, if Citi does not make any big mistakes, it is estimated that there will be no replacement.However, other battalions are not necessarily so.For example, the commander of the Western Front Battalion guarding the Turkic land in the west is already a veteran in his seventies.It shouldn't be long before they will be replaced. Perhaps, they can give it a try.

Although the soldiers in the western front battalion are not as powerful as the front-line battalion, and the conditions are relatively backward.But there is an old saying that a hard head is not a phoenix tail.Here, being a deputy commander has been suppressed by Citigroup, which is much stronger.

Cao Cheng felt that he had had enough of this anger.This time, if he didn't know that Citi Chong would act alone, he would definitely offend Citi Chong.However, what if you are offended?Cao Cheng sneered in his heart, clenched his fist, and was ready to do it.

There is no doubt about Mo Xiaochuan, but now there are very few.It is impossible for Mo Xiaochuan to deceive him with such a big matter, and, as Mo Xiaochuan said, it is very easy to verify this matter.

Not long after Lin Feng returned to his life.The Ministry of War finally came to the news.

When the imperial decree was read out, it was in Mo Xiaochuan's big tent.Many generals stood around.Among them, there are also those generals of the front camp.

Everyone knelt down, only Mo Xiaochuan folded his fists and bent over. This was also a privilege given to him by his title, and he didn't have to kneel when he received the order.This rule did not exist when Xiliang was founded.It was proposed by the old queen mother after Mo Zhiyuan ascended the throne.

What the old lady said at the time was very simple.There are all kinds of people who pass the decree. As a member of the Mo family's royal family, how can I kneel down to these people.Mo Zhiyuan is a filial son, he naturally obeys the old queen's words, not to mention, he also thinks so in his heart.

Therefore, Mo Xiaochuan will never kneel now, except when Mo Zhiyuan personally delivered the decree.It is also because of this that in Xiliang, there is no prince with a foreign surname.Even if Cui Xiu, a veteran of the three dynasties, made so many contributions to Xiliang, he only gave it to a Marquis.

The imperial decree was very simple. It announced that the new army would become an independent army from this moment on. It would no longer be affiliated with the front-line battalion and be named the new army battalion.At the same time, Mo Xiaochuan was promoted to be the commander of the new army battalion. However, Mo Xiaochuan was good at killing generals. Although the general delayed the military plane, he should not have executed him privately. For this reason, he was removed from the post of commander and changed to deputy commander. .

To Mo Xiaochuan, this was an indifferent matter.Maybe others will care about the position of commanding, but he doesn't care.After all, he has the throne, and it doesn't matter if he has the title of commander.As long as there is no change in the sentence in the imperial decree, it will be fine.

Has the right to rule, and hangs a prince.Do you still care about whether the official positions are commander and deputy commander?

After announcing this important event, the generals with meritorious service were sealed.Kou Yilang was promoted to lieutenant general, Zhang Li was tied up by Citi Chong and couldn't get out. This time his meritorious service was limited, so he could only serve as his general.

In addition to Kou Yilang, many people were rewarded and promoted.Including these generals of the front camp.This made them unexpected, unexpectedly, Mo Xiaochuan actually gave credit for them.However, when the imperial envoy later announced that these 2 people would be members of the new army in the future, their expressions were different.Some people look happy, while others are worried.

Mo Xiaochuan naturally understood.In fact, it would make him feel strange if everyone showed cheering expressions about staying in the new army.After all, they have been in the frontline camp for many years, and now it is suddenly said that they are no longer part of the frontline camp. Naturally, many people will find it difficult to accept.

However, Mo Xiaochuan was more at ease with these people.

Some of the important generals here, Mo Xiaochuan sent people to check their details. For those who Mo Xiaochuan thinks are difficult to control, or who may become Citi Chong's spies in the future, Mo Xiaochuan has already taken the initiative to send them back. Into the front camp.

Those who stay are basically reliable.

After the imperial envoy read out the imperial decree and handed it to Mo Xiaochuan, he saluted Mo Xiaochuan and said, "I will see you, my lord."

"My lord, you don't need to be polite. The king has already arranged a banquet, go and take a seat." Mo Xiaochuan raised his hand and said.

The imperial envoy nodded slightly, turned his gaze to Kou Yilang, said with a smile on his face, "General Kou, very good. Mr. Kou is very pleased this time."

Kou Yilang knew this imperial envoy. He was a member of the Ministry of War. He was a senior official named Chen Liang. Kou Yilang always called them Uncle Chen.At this moment, after hearing Chen Liang's words, Kou Yilang came over and said: "This is all thanks to the support of the prince, and Uncle Chen praised it absurdly."

"Young man, it's rare to be able to be neither arrogant nor impetuous." Chen Liang said, smiling at Mo Xiaochuan, and said, "Please, my lord."

Mo Xiaochuan glanced at Kou Yilang, and said: "Since Yiliang also knows the imperial envoy, then I can't accompany you today, and I will respect the imperial envoy for a few drinks later."

Chen Liang laughed, and said: "My lord is going to get this old man drunk, why don't you give me a few horses?"

Mo Xiaochuan said with a look of pain: "To tell the truth, Mr. Chen, these horses were snatched back by brothers desperately. Now the court will take [-] horses as soon as they open their mouths. It is a lie to say that they don't feel bad." of."

In the imperial decree, although there was no mention of horses, Chen Liang mentioned this in the official letter of the Ministry of War to Mo Xiaochuan. Among the 2 people in the front-line battalion, [-] were cavalry. Let Mo Xiaochuan stay, but the horses have to be returned, so [-] horses must be given to the front camp.The other [-] were only accepted by the Ministry of War for deployment.

Mo Xiaochuan also knew that if he wanted to keep Citigroup to attack the 2 people, he was afraid that some blood would be shed, but he didn't expect that the Ministry of War would open his mouth, asking for 2 horses. There were only [-] horses that came back, and now [-] horses had to go, which really hurt my heart.However, he also understands that the value of the [-] people in the frontline battalion is much stronger to him at this stage than the [-] horses. Will trouble myself again.It can also save yourself a lot of trouble.

However, when Kogu did this, he always felt as if he wanted to poach a piece of meat.

Chen Liang looked at Mo Xiaochuan and said with a smile, "If you have any other requests, please just say so. I will definitely bring the words to Lord Shangshu."

"It's nothing else. It's just that a lot of soldiers have been lost in this battle. I hope the Ministry of War will allow our new army camp to recruit. Besides, it has already become a large camp, and the current strength is less than [-]. This is not justified. Kou My lord is going to leave me with so many horses, so I should be satisfied in this regard, right?" Mo Xiaochuan said with a smile.

Chen Liang nodded, and said: "The prince's words, the officials must bring them. In fact, this time, Mr. Kou also said. The prince's request, as long as it is not excessive, can be agreed."

Mo Xiaochuan laughed, and said, "Master Kou is really a good person."

Everyone laughed and stopped dwelling on this issue.Mo Xiaochuan knew that the matter of conscription was not easy to do right now, and the northern border was still eyeing him, so he really couldn't be distracted.Come to think of it, Kou Gu wouldn't be in a difficult situation in this regard, Mo Zhiyuan should be able to talk to him too.

The most important thing now is to stabilize the morale of the army. This is the focus of the battle against the northern camp.

As for the others, we still have to wait until after this matter has passed before making a decision.
