"Also, in four days' time, I will lead my troops to conquer Mobei, and then you will go with me! The arrest operation must be completed before my army leaves the fortress!"

Zhao Ping was very excited, and he quickly agreed: "My son obeys the order!"

After Zhao Ping was sent away, Zhao Junsheng sent the eunuch to preach Lin Jinghui after thinking about it.

Soon, Lin Jinghui came to see him.

"I see your Majesty!"

"Excuse me!" Zhao Junsheng waved to the eunuchs and maids in the store after finishing speaking, telling them all to go out.

Zhao Junsheng ordered: "There are two things that need to be done by the black-clothed guard!"

"Please order, Your Majesty!" Lin Jinghui bowed and obeyed.

"Anle Gong Tuobahuang, as the last emperor of the former dynasty, was used by Feng Da to gather the hearts of the former court officials and military generals and plan rebellion. Judging from various signs, Tuobahuang himself was not purely being used by others, he himself also had such This kind of desire, I can let him spend his life in peace and prosperity, let him spend his life in glory and wealth, but I can't tolerate his rebellion, so he can't stay, but there are still many former officials and generals in the court, these people Loyal to me and this dynasty, but they also sympathize with Tuoba Huang, so Tuoba Huang cannot be executed in the open, do you understand what I mean?"

Lin Jinghui bowed his fists and said: "I understand, I will let him die in the hands of Feng Da or other former ministers involved in the case!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded, very satisfied with the arrangement, and said, "The second thing, last time you said that the Rouran envoy disappeared in Jiankang, have you found out his whereabouts and clues now?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, this person disappeared mysteriously, but it is impossible for a person to disappear out of thin air. The minister and the people in the Jiankang branch all suspect that the Southern Dynasty is causing trouble, but there is no evidence to prove this!"

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand: "There is no need to doubt, the Southern Dynasty has actually reached a secret covenant with the Rouran people. The Southern Dynasty Emperor Liu Jun drove the Rouran envoys out of the palace in fact to confuse our spies. Their purpose was to cover up The fact that they have formed an alliance has been confirmed from other sources! I guess that as long as we fight with the Rouran people, the Southern Dynasty will definitely be unwilling to be lonely and send troops to attack us! Therefore, I can’t give them a chance, I want to black Yiwei has created something in the Southern Dynasty!"

Lin Jinghui was a little confused about what Zhao Junsheng wanted to do, "Your Majesty, please clarify!"

"I heard that in the past few years, there have been many refugees in the Southern Dynasty, as well as many tenants who have been exploited by wealthy families. Among these people, there must be people who are dissatisfied with the Liu and Song courts in the Southern Dynasty. A large number of followers! Can the Black Clothes Guard take the lead in doing this?"

"Also, there are many people in Liu Song's clan who have kept things secret from Liu Jun. Once the refugees and tenants gather together to rebel, will these people be ready to move? Is the black guard able to instigate them to rebel against Liu Jun?"

"What I want the black-clothed guard to do is actually very simple, but it is not easy. That is to disturb Liu Song and make Liu Song's internal chaos into a pot of porridge. There is no time to send troops to attack us!"

Lin Jinghui clasped his fists and said: "I understand, I will arrange it now. May I ask when His Majesty will launch it?"

"It can be launched after my army is out of the fortress!"

"I obey my orders!"

In the next few days, in the city of Chang'an, all the former ministers and generals who were persuaded by Feng Da to join the group were secretly arrested one by one. Feng Da resisted arrest and escaped during the arrest process. He was forced to flee to the mansion of Tuoba Huang, Duke of Anle.

Afterwards, the people from the Imperial City Division rushed to surround the mansion of Duke Anle with soldiers and horses. After the officers and soldiers rushed into the mansion, they found that Duke Anle had been killed. Feng Da was arrested by the officers and soldiers guarding outside when he escaped over the wall One is right.

After the arrest operation in the capital was over, the arrest operations in various places were also gradually launched, but at this time Zhao Junsheng was leading the army to the northern border.

According to the plan, this expedition to Mobei will be divided into three groups. The East Route Army will be led by Bai Jinguang, with [-] soldiers and horses, marching northward from Yuyi Town; , starting from Huaishuo Town, crossing the desert and marching northwestward; the West Route Army was led by Zhao Junsheng himself, with [-] soldiers and horses, and the three groups finally joined forces at Rouran Khan Court!

On this day, Zhao Junsheng arrived at Lingwu with [-] cavalry, and he ordered the army to rest for a day before setting off.

The previous name of Lingwu was Bogulu Town. In May of the eighth year of Dagan, the imperial court renamed the location of Bogulu Town to Lingwu, and the area under its jurisdiction to Lingzhou.

"Father, all arrests in various places are over, and no one slipped through the net!" Zhao Ping came to report to Zhao Junsheng with a letter.

After hearing this, Zhao Junsheng asked, "What are the views and voices of the ruling and opposition parties regarding Tuobahuang's death?"

"There was no response, but some former ministers felt very sorry, and some people went to express their condolences," Zhao Ping replied.

Zhao Junsheng nodded, "Okay, we must continue to pay attention to the follow-up impact of this matter, you go!"

"promise!"

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while, and then ordered Kang Yide: "Give Lin Jinghui an order, and he can start!"

"promise!"

Chapter 875

Zhao Junsheng led the [-] West Route Army to rest for a day in Lingwu and continued up the Yellow River. After a few days of marching, they arrived in Linrong County, where they crossed the river and marched westward.

After marching for another three days, the prosperous reclamation area gradually disappeared, replaced by desert and barren mountains and ridges, with no turquoise in sight.

A pass in the distance appeared in the sight of the forward soldiers. The forward general Yang Lie sent someone to ride a horse to report to Zhao Junsheng: "Report to Your Majesty, the forward has arrived at Jilusai, more than ten miles away from here!"

When Zhao Junsheng heard this, he looked up at the sky and told the messenger: "Go back and tell Yang Lie that it's getting late, and the army will be camping in Jilusai Pass tonight, and let him organize troops to find places to camp, divide camp areas, and dig trenches. , Release the sentry post!"

"Accept the order!" After the messenger agreed, he turned around and galloped away.

When Zhao Junsheng arrived with the main force of the army, Yang Lie had already drawn up a large camp with the vanguard generals in the open space east of Jilusai. Mark, he is leading the soldiers to dig trenches and drainage ditches outside the camp, and build horse repelling and roadblocks.

Zhao Junsheng gave an order, and the soldiers of each army found their camps and began to set up tents, and the logistics team pulled all the luggage to a special area for storage.

When the soldiers were working in full swing, Zhao Junsheng brought the general and the ministers accompanying the army to inspect, and the soldiers got up one after another and continued to work hard after saluting.

Zhao Junsheng said as he walked, "I think you all know this stuffed chicken and deer, right?"

Minister Xu Yan arched his hands: "The famous general Huo Qubing of the Western Han Dynasty and the great general Dou Xian of the Eastern Han Dynasty both led troops from Jilusai to attack the Xiongnu in the north! Also, when the Han and Xiong got married, Zhaojun went out of the fortress to Mobei from here. Later, the Xiongnu Civil strife, Hu Hanxie Chanyu and Zhaojun and his wife lived in Jilusai for eight years!"

Zhao Junsheng was quite emotional: "Yes, this Jilu Fortress has been built since the early Western Han Dynasty. It was the northwest gateway of the Han Dynasty at that time. It guards the throat of traffic passing through Yangshan Mountain. This fortress is a witness of the history of the Han Dynasty!"

Minister Lu Xuan said: "Just talk about Huo Huqi, but don't mention the rebellious Dou Xian!"

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand: "You can't say that. Although Dou Xian left a lot of misdeeds, so that these misdeeds covered up his historical achievements, but his military commander is indisputable! Look at a person, We should not only see his faults and shortcomings, but also his strengths and achievements. He was the second military commander in the Eastern Han Dynasty to carry out the Northern Expedition to the Xiongnu. Ranshan's "Carved Stone Legong" forced the Northern Huns to move westward, and the power shook the north and south of the desert! He not only affected the history of our Central Plains, but also the history of the West, because he defeated the Northern Huns and forced the Northern Huns to go west. Now the descendants of the Northern Huns have moved westward to the northern grasslands in the far west to fight the Roman Empire to pay tribute every year!"

Chang Kun rubbed his neck and said, "It turned out that the Northern Huns who were driven away by us are now showing off their power in the west. There are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are called kings!"

"Hahaha..." All the generals and ministers accompanying the army laughed loudly.

Lu Xuan said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, I think Dou Xian cannot be credited with defeating the Northern Huns alone. Although he is the commander in chief, his military skills and strategies may not be very advanced. I remember that he had a deputy commander at that time." His name is Geng Bing, and his official name is General Zhengxi, Geng Bing is also a famous general, Dou Xian should have other advisors beside him, and the battle against the Northern Huns should be achieved only by gathering the wisdom of everyone!"

Zhao Junsheng smiled and said: "Lu Qing is right, there is no one else, Dou Xian can't accomplish anything alone, but you have to understand the role of a commander, a military commander does not need to have profound strategies and strong force , His role is to enable everyone around him to display their talents, and to gather the strength and wisdom of all generals and counselors to exert the most powerful combat power!"

"Speaking of this Geng Bing, his father is Da Si Nong Geng Guo, and his uncle is Geng Yan, the great general of Jianwei. Do you know who Geng Yan is? His grandfather is Geng Kuang, the prefect of Shanggu! The Geng family is terrible. During the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, there were two generals, nine generals, thirteen ranked in the Jiuqing, and three of them married princesses. Hou Da has 28 people, dozens of people have served as Zhonglang General, Huqiang Captain, Inspector, and Erqianshi level officials. , Geng Bian is a cousin, when food, grass and water sources were cut off, he dug mountains and wells, boiled crossbow tendons for food, and squeezed horse manure to quench his thirst. Minzhuang resisted the siege of the 19 Huns from the Northern Huns. After many years, they were rescued by the reinforcements and then hunted down by the Huns. When they left, only 26 people remained, and when they returned to Yumen Pass, only 13 remained. How loyal and heroic is this? "

Lu Xuan seemed to admire Geng Gong very much, and he said with great reverence: "Your Majesty's words are true. Zheng Zhong commented on Geng Gong's integrity, saying that his integrity is unprecedented; Situ Baoyu at the time commented on Geng Gong's His integrity is even better than Su Wu's!"

Guoshi Dongfangchen said with a smile: "I heard that Fan Ye of the Southern Dynasty compiled the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty" a few days ago, and the book commented on Geng Gong's generosity, generosity, and general talent!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded: "Speaking of this Fan Ye, he is indeed a great talent, but it is a pity that he was born in the Southern Dynasty! And that Pei Songzhi is also talented. After I defeat Rouran, I will go back and destroy the Southern Dynasty , when the time comes, I will definitely take them all under my command!"

All the generals and ministers clasped their hands together: "Your Majesty is very talented, and you will surely get what you want!"
