Li Xiang quickly prepared the two slips of paper and placed them directly in a wine jar. Everyone below held their breath, not knowing who could win. This also related to his future. destiny.

In the Tiance Admiral's Mansion, this is indeed very good, and there will be a good future in the future. For those who have been on the battlefield, of course they can continue to hang out here. After all, you have made contributions on the battlefield, and in heaven After serving as an official in General Ce's office for a few years, he can be released as a high official at any time.

But it is different for some people, such as these young people. They have never been to the battlefield, or they have only gone to the battlefield for a walk. This has no credit at all. If they are allowed to hang around like this, I am afraid these people will not be willing, so in this case, they will definitely choose to follow His Highness on the expedition.

But in the past, there was no chance at all, so these people could only hope for the stars and the moon in their hearts. Now it is finally different. Even if only half of the people go out, they still have half the chance of returning from the battlefield in the future. , I feel confident.

"Old cow comes first."

Niu Jinda was older, so Li Xiang asked Niu Jinda to come down. The last one was naturally Su Dingfang's. Niu Jinda held it in his hand for a long time, and finally chose the one below. When he opened it, there was nothing on it, so The only option is to stay in Chang'an.

"I got it, I got it."

Su Dingfang opened his piece of paper, and there was indeed a black dot on it, which meant that he could go to the battlefield in the Western Regions. This guy came back from the battlefield in the Western Regions, and he was familiar with the journey this time.

"Send someone to send an urgent order to the Western Regions, asking Cheng Chumo to return to the capital and stand by to take Su Dingfang's place. Su Dingfang will leave the capital early tomorrow."

Su Dingfang hadn't finished celebrating here yet. Li Xiang's order had already been issued. After hearing Li Xiang's order, Su Dingfang didn't care to say anything else. He immediately named more than thirty of his own people among the people drinking there. My subordinates, now we have no time to drink here. We must go home as quickly as possible to prepare. We will be on the road at sunrise tomorrow.

Niu Jinda had a dark face at the moment. Why were his hands so stupid? There was a 50% chance inside, but I just caught a piece of paper with nothing on it. If I had to do it again, I would definitely grab the lower one, and I would never touch the upper one.

But these days, no one sells regret medicine. As for admitting defeat, everyone has been in the army for so many years. Are you still allowed to regret it? What's more, this matter is so important, and Li Xiang's mentality is also inclined to go with Su Dingfang, but if Niu Jinda smokes, Li Xiang will never have other ideas.

Su Dingfang was already very familiar with the war in the Western Regions. If he led troops in the past, he would be of great help to Li Xiang. Therefore, under such circumstances, Su Dingfang was the best choice.

"Don't be discouraged, Old Niu. It will only take one to two years at most. I will re-select generals to go to the front line. We must have a good rotation system. No one can enjoy peace and happiness in the rear all the time. You can always enjoy yourself on the front line.”

Li Xiang's words made Niu Jinda's eyes brighten. In one to two years, he had followed Li Xiang for a long time, and he knew that Li Xiang's words meant what he said. As long as he said so, it meant that everyone had hope. .

Many people below have heard this sentence. The faces of those who followed Su Dingfang on the expedition ranged from happy to sad. Not all of them were willing to go to the battlefield, but most of them were still willing to go and earn some merit. In this way, we have the foundation to gain a foothold in Chang'an City.

If you have been in the rear and lack the qualifications of the front line, you may not be able to get a certain amount of credit if you want to be promoted. Then you will not be able to seize the opportunity when it comes, and you can only stay in the yamen in the rear. , it’s like there is a missing piece of land in your growth process, and no one can fill it for you.

"Your Highness is right. I, Lao Niu, are not old yet. Then I will look after your Highness's house in Chang'an City. When one day they are tired of fighting, I, Lao Niu, will naturally go up with weapons. According to what His Highness said , The world is so big, how can it be defeated by them all?”

Niu Jinda said very proudly, then grabbed the wine jar on the table and drank it all in one gulp. Li Xiang also extended his thumb. If it was really about drinking, Su Dingfang was definitely not Niu Jinda's opponent.

If the two of them fought with equal weapons, both of them would definitely lose in the end. No one could say who would win, but if they drank, Niu Jinda could drink several Su Dingfangs.

The general’s camp of the Western Regions.

Five days after Li Xiang issued the order, the General Camp of the Western Regions received a message from Chang'an. After Cheng Chumo returned this time, he would take Su Dingfang's place. You must know that Cheng Chumo did not have the qualifications at all, although he was also there. He had commanded several wars in the Western Region, but compared with Su Dingfang, there was still a big gap.

However, this letter was written by His Highness the Crown Prince himself. It also has the seals of several other people on it. It is definitely not fake. When the imperial court issues such orders, they generally walk on two legs. Fei Ge's transmission is The fastest ones are the post soldiers on horses.

However, their speed is relatively slow. It will take at least a month to reach the Northwest Camp. This is because the road has been repaired. If it is at the original speed, maybe this letter can travel on the road for three to four months, and that is on the premise of not getting lost. If it gets lost, it may not be delivered in half a year.

When Li Xiang built roads in the Western Regions, many people thought it was a waste of money. Doesn't our court have too much money to spend? Why not build roads in the interior with this money? If the roads are built in such a vast area of ​​Xiyue, at least several million strings of money will be needed. Now, do those people still say anything? They are all convinced.

"Congratulations to the general for his promotion to the general's mansion."

After hearing the news, the people present also held a banquet. When Cheng Chumo came in, they all raised their glasses, but Cheng Chumo's expression was not so happy. He had just sent General Molun away, and he didn't expect that it would be his turn so soon. (End of this chapter)
