The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 50
After Wang Yan went back, he threw the helmet off his head angrily.

"General, you are so capable, why do you have to succumb to an old man half buried in the ground?" At this time, the deputy who had been following Wang Yan couldn't help but said beside him seeing Wang Yan's anger.

After hearing this, Wang Yan reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense, if your words are heard by outsiders, it will be a serious crime that will kill your head. You are disturbing the morale of the army, do you understand?"

The deputy hurriedly said to Wang Yan with a flattering smile: "General, I can only say this to you. I also saw that you are really aggrieved in this army, General, so I said that."

Wang Yan took a deep breath and said to the lieutenant general: "Since we have chosen to join the imperial court's Imperial Army, we must act in accordance with the imperial court's laws. Not you."

The deputy general saw Wang Yan's seriousness, so he quickly changed his words and said: "General, I also feel that life is not as nourishing as before. If it was in the past, when did the Eight Character Army suffer from such uselessness, they would have rushed to kill them. Without those group of gold thieves, life will not be like it is now, restricted by rules and regulations, even drinking is not allowed."

Wang Yan suddenly realized that this should not only be the lieutenant's own idea, but also the general opinion of the soldiers below. However, as the leader of the Eight Character Army, he knew clearly that this was a good idea to turn the Eight Character Army into a regular army of the imperial court. Timing, if you continue to be so undisciplined, it will sound like a character army, but it will be no different from bandits if it is not.

Thinking of this, he immediately called several leaders of the original Eight Character Army to discuss this matter, and shared his thoughts with everyone.

"I was the one who wanted to join General Zhong at the beginning, and I didn't ask for everyone's opinions. Now I want to ask everyone, is there anyone who feels that he is not as chic as before and wants to leave?"

The generals looked at each other when they heard Wang Yan's question, and one of them said, "General, why did you say that?"

Wang Yan waved his hand and said, "It doesn't mean anything else, it just occurred to me that I didn't ask everyone for their opinions when I joined the Forbidden Army. Now I want to ask everyone if anyone wants to leave. If you want to leave, tell me right now, and I will go and tell General Zhong that you will never be held accountable."

"General, what you said is that we are all from poor people. How can we not suffer?" A leader of the Eight Character Army said, "I don't care about others. I, Zhao Jian, definitely don't have any ideas. Your life was saved by you, General, and I will go wherever you go, General, I am a rough person, I don’t have a heart, but I know that as long as it is something that my brother thinks is right, it is right.”

"It's the general. As long as I can kill the gold thief, I'm willing to go anywhere." Another person followed suit.

"General, in fact, there is nothing wrong with joining the Imperial Army. In the past, we were all small-scale fights. We have never encountered such a large-scale battle. Compared with our group of miscellaneous troops, it is definitely stronger than weaker."

Many former generals of the Bazi Army expressed their thoughts one after another. Although some people said that they were indeed a bit useless now, no one said they wanted to leave.

Hearing this, Wang Yan couldn't help but be moved. Having such a group of brothers is really a great joy in life.

After the generals left, an uninvited guest suddenly came to Wang Yan's barracks, Zhong Shidao actually came in person.

"General, why are you here?" Wang Yan looked at the coming teacher with some surprise.

Zhong Shidao said to Wang Yan: "Come here to see you, since the Bazi Army joined my army, I haven't had a good chat with you yet?"

Seeing Shidao Zhong, Wang Yan always felt a little guilty. Could it be that Shidao Zhong knew about the meeting between himself and his former subordinates?Thinking of this, Wang Yan was ready to explain to Zhong Shidao.

"General, just now..."

Zhong Shidao waved his hand, interrupted what Wang Yan wanted to say, and said, "No need to say more, I believe you."

It was these simple eight words, but it moved Wang Yan completely. An excellent leader has a charismatic personality, which can attract others to surround him and obey his command.

"Old man, I'm getting old, and I won't be able to jump for a few days. The biggest wish in this life is to conquer the Yanyun Sixteen States." Zhong Shidao said lightly, with a touch of sadness in his words.

Wang Yan was infected by this kind of sad emotion. As a military general on the battlefield, it is inevitable that he also has some sad emotions, but now is the critical moment when the two armies are fighting. If the coach has such emotions, it is extremely bad. So he hurriedly said: "Old general, old man, don't lose confidence!"

Zhong Shidao waved his hand and said: "You don't have to be nervous. Today I am either a general or an old man. Of course, I have not lost confidence. On the contrary, I have also seen hope. Now that I am the new king of the Song Dynasty, I will use my virtuous ministers , stay away from traitors and sycophants, and the court is full of vigor and clearness, in the old man's view, it is just around the corner that Yanyun sixteen prefectures will be conquered."

Hearing what Zhong Shidao said, Wang Yan felt relieved, and said in an embarrassing way: "Old General, you are panting for words, but you are going to scare me to death."

Zhong Shidao was amused by his appearance, and said: "These days, have you had enough of Jin Jun's uselessness?"

Wang Yan always felt that Zhong Shi's way of teaching was a little abnormal today. He didn't know if he was here to test himself, so he hurriedly said: "I am Meng Lang these days, and I haven't been able to appreciate the good intentions of the general."

"Boy, you didn't tell the old man the truth." Zhong Shidao said.

Wang Yan's head was full of black lines, and he said: "General, the last general dare not."

"Haha, don't be so nervous, I don't mean to blame you, I tell you, I've had enough of the Golden Army's uselessness these days, so I order you to fight tomorrow, go all out and give me a hard time Bite a gold thief, never let a gold thief go, tell me, can you do it?" Zhong Shidao said suddenly.

Wang Yan frowned tightly, secretly thinking that the old man might have been confused by his age. Song Jun was not the opponent of Jin Jun in the first place, and the number is not enough now. Under such circumstances, how could Jin Jun Will run away, he said in a sly way: "General, um, aren't we a little too happy?"

　The third one was delivered, and Mantou begged for a recommendation (Ps: Comments have been blocked in the bookstore recently, so you may not be able to see the comments of book friends, please forgive me if Mantou didn’t reply!)
