I have 800,000 private soldiers. The emperor forces me to hand over military power?

The next day.

After besieging Yunzhou City for ten days and losing tens of thousands of troops and horses, the 150,000 imperial troops suddenly withdrew in an orderly manner without any warning.

It was said that the troops were withdrawing in an orderly manner, but in fact, the equipment and equipment were scattered all over the ground, except for the armor on their bodies and the swords and guns in their hands.

For fear of being too heavy to run fast, the Yunzhou defenders took the opportunity to kill the drowned dog.

On the city wall of Yunzhou City, the deputy marshal of Longcheng soldiers and horses, Chang Yuchun, the general of Zhengnan, wearing a pair of bright armor and a short sword on his waist, looked at the messy and deserted Huben army in the distance with a blank expression. Camp.

For a moment, he seemed a little at a loss.

Soon, Chang Yuchun's doubts were cleared.

In the field of vision, there is a long golden figure, facing the rays of the morning sun, stepping on the frost.

Behind him were tens of thousands of cavalry troops.

A scarlet yellow dragon flag flutters in the morning breeze, and the four-clawed yellow dragon is lifelike.

It was Chen Huaian, the king of Jin, who arrived with the Iron Buddha of Dragon City and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry army.

After seeing clearly who the visitor was from outside the city, Chang Yuchun immediately ordered: "Whoever is there, hurry up and send the order down, lower the suspension bridge, open the city gate, and welcome His Royal Highness King Jin into the city!"

After giving the instructions, Chang Yuchun trotted down the city tower and went to the city gate to greet Jin Wang Chen Huaian.

A few moments.

King Chen Huaian of the Jin Dynasty, wearing golden armor, rode into the city. Chang Yuchun personally stepped forward to hold the reins of the yellow gelding for Chen Huaian, and said with a hearty laugh:

"Your Highness, when the general came to the city to patrol the city early this morning, he was still wondering why the Tiger Army had withdrawn in a hurry overnight, without even having time to take away the equipment."

"But when a golden figure appeared in the general's field of vision, the general immediately realized that the gang of thieves must have been frightened by His Highness's tiger threat, and they fled in a hurry at night."

Hahaha!

As he said that, Chang Yuchun laughed loudly again.

Chen Huaian, who had been riding all morning, jumped off the horse at this time and looked at Chang Yuchun with a smile on his face, like a simple and honest big brother.

I thought to myself, when did this most powerful general of the Ming Dynasty learn to flatter him?

"Deputy Commander Chang, you don't know something. His Highness's expedition to Tumubao not only led us to defeat the 200,000 Japanese soldiers prepared by the imperial court, but also pursued them all the way and raided the food route of the Huben Army. He also -"

The speaker was the young hussar general Huo Qubing.

He deliberately kept it a secret, and after arousing the curiosity of the generals stationed in Yunzhou, he slowly replied: "Captured the Dog Emperor Zhao Qian alive!"

hiss!

As soon as these words came out, all the generals guarding the city in Yunzhou were shocked.

Chang Yuchun said anxiously: "Then, where is that dog emperor Zhao Qian? We, Chang, would like to take a look!"

"Die!"

Huo Qubing spread his hands and said: "Vice General Chang, in fact, the Dog Emperor only looks like that. He is not some bullshit Ninth Five Emperor, the True Dragon Emperor."

"He hit his head against the wall and it bled."

"In the end, the collision was too hard and he died!"

Upon hearing the news, Chang Yuchun looked regretful and said, "Hey, I missed it, I missed it!"

At this time, Chen Huaian finally spoke: "General Chang, let's talk while walking and talk about the situation of the Imperial Tiger Army!"

Chang Yuchun said: "Your Highness, the imperial army is just a group of tigers and soldiers."

The territory of Longcheng is based on the Anxi Frontier Army Camp in Beichuan.

Inside the Chinese army's tent, Guo Dingfang, the commander-in-chief of Anxi and the general of Zhenxi, looked sad and gloomy.

The vanguard troops of the Tibetan barbarians who invaded Hexi and Longyou, the territory of the Anxi General Military Mansion on the Daxin border, were about to reach the General Military Mansion in Chang'an City and stole the homes of Guo Dingfang and the Anxi frontier army.

Emperor Zhao Qian's last imperial edict actually ordered Guo Dingfang to lead the Anxi frontier army to storm Longcheng. He also said that "the first battle will be the decisive battle, and the outcome will be decided in one battle."

This is not a random command. I don’t know what Shen Guangming, the Minister of War, does for food, so he just allows the emperor to fool around without stopping him.

If you were like Shen Guangming and couldn't do anything, then it would be a little easier to be the Minister of War. You could just lead a dog and sit in this position.

My house was about to be stolen, and you asked me to fight to decide the outcome, to stand up to a hammer.

In fact, Guo Dingfang never thought about confronting the Polu army stationed in Longcheng from the beginning.

He was one of the few generals in the Daxin Imperial Court who knew the fighting power of the Polu Army, so naturally he was unwilling to start a war rashly with such a veteran of many battles.

If he had not been forced to disobey the emperor's order, Guo Dingfang would have turned around and led 100,000 Anxi troops to fight back to Chang'an City.

Therefore, when the emperor ordered to storm Dragon City, Guo Dingfang responded with a dragging tactic.

The 100,000 Anxi frontier troops under his command have arrived in the territory of Longcheng and have occupied Beichuan for more than ten days, but they have not had any battle with the Longcheng defenders at all, and not even an arrow has been fired at the head of Longcheng.

On the contrary, envoys from the two armies often walked among the two armies after nightfall.

Guo Dingfang and his generals ate and drank a lot of the pigs, cattle, sheep and aged daughter's red wine sent by the Jin Palace.

Rather than saying that Guo Dingfang came to attack Longcheng, it would be better to say that he came to Longcheng for an outing.

And all of this is related to Dongfang Xiao, an old monk in black robe who is stationed in Dragon City, and his strategy of "conquering the enemy without fighting".

Tonight, as usual, Guo Dingfang was drinking in the big tent to soothe his sorrows. The sudden visit of an uninvited guest suddenly changed the life trajectory of this Anxi commander-in-chief and Zhenxi general.

"Report——"

"Reporting to the general, the special envoy of Dragon City is asking for an audience!"

Outside the big tent, the messenger's announcement sounded.

In the tent, Guo Dingfang drank a cup of wine without raising his head and said: "Invite!"

"General Guo, I have been away from the capital for more than three years. General, you are well and well!"

At this time, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in the big tent.

Hearing this voice, Guo Dingfang, who was sitting at the desk and drinking to soothe his sorrows, felt as if he was struck by lightning. The hand holding the wine cup shook unconsciously, and the wine in the cup spilled all over the floor.

He looked up in disbelief, and it was indeed that familiar face.

That's right, the person who came was none other than Chen Huaian.

At this moment, Guo Dingfang's heartbeat accelerated and his blood surged.

This is in the camp of his Anxi frontier army. With just one order, the rebel Chen Huaian can be captured alive.

By that time, it was a certainty that he would be granted the title of Marquis, Prime Minister, and his wife and son.

Chen Huaian spoke again, with a somewhat joking tone, and said: "General Guo, is it possible that you are considering whether to take this king into custody and send him to Zhao Qian in exchange for a bright future as a prince and prime minister?"

"Your Highness, look at what you said, am I, Guo Dingfang, such a person?"

Guo Dingfang finally came back to his senses and greeted him with a smile: "No one in the Daxin Court knows the character of the late King Polu and His Highness. I, Guo Dingfang, have lived an upright and upright life. How can I be a junior like a snake and rat?"

"No matter what, as a minister, it is difficult to disobey the emperor's orders!"

While they were talking, the two of them were already standing face to face, no more than ten steps apart.

Chen Huaian smiled meaningfully and said, "General Guo, from today on, you won't have to worry about disobeying the emperor's orders!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and ordered: "Come here, bring the things to General Guo for inspection!"

The next moment, Xiao Po, the commander of the Jinwu Guards, carried Emperor Zhao Qian's golden battle armor and Overlord's spear from the carriage that came with him, and presented them to Guo Dingfang, the general of Zhenxi in the big tent.

hiss!

Seeing this, Guo Dingfang took a breath and said in disbelief: "This, this is, is the emperor's golden armor and overlord's spear?"

Chen Huaian nodded with a smile and said: "General Guo, the foolish king Zhao Qian, has committed suicide in Wuzhou City out of fear of crime. The sky in Daxin Chaotang has cleared up!"

For a moment, the expression on Guo Dingfang's face could be described as the change of the four seasons.

The next moment, he knelt down on one knee, bowed to Chen Huaian, and said respectfully: "The last general Guo Dingfang is willing to lead 300,000 Anxi troops and swear to follow His Majesty the King of Jin to Fengtian Jingnan and conquer the rebellion in the south!"

Hahaha!

Chen Huaian laughed heartily and said, "General Guo is truly a hero!"
