Chapter 1264 Counterattack!
Chapter 1264
"Yes, my lord."
Xu Keyi quickly took orders and left after hearing the words. In the northwest, Wang Chong had actually sent several letters, but as long as it was Wang Chong's order, Xu Keyi never doubted it.
"Clatter!"
Xu Keyi just took a few steps, when suddenly there was a sound of wings breaking through the air, everyone looked up and saw a falcon falling rapidly from the sky, and on the right foot, a turquoise copper piece was extremely eye-catching .
"My lord, it's a letter from Northwest!"
Cheng Sanyuan said in a deep voice.
Wang Chong's subordinates exchange news, and different areas have different signs, so you don't need to read the letter, just take a look, and you will probably know where it came from.
The falcon landed on the eagle's shoulder, and the latter removed the letterhead, just glanced at it, and immediately changed his expression.
"My lord, it's not good. Letters from Li Siye and Su Hanshan, something happened in the army!"
Eagle walked quickly and whispered something in Wang Chong's ear. With a bang, a stone stirred up thousands of waves. Wang Chong took the letter from the eagle's hand, and his heart was filled with waves.
The letter was sent by Su Hanshan, and Wang Chong's uneasiness and speculation were confirmed.
After Wang Chong left, three Confucian masters took over the power. Because Wang Chong ascended and descended secretly, and was escorted by the Ministry of Rites and Jinwuwei before leaving, this aroused great indignation among the Qixi Protectorate Army and mercenaries, and the Confucianists subsequently withdrew their troops from Khorasan and betrayed Wang Chong. The promises made with the Sasanian Dynasty and the rebel army also accumulated a lot of dissatisfaction with Confucianism in the army.
When a large number of Confucian masters were sent to the army as supervisors, they were suppressed by many parties, and finally the dissatisfaction among the generals was pushed to the extreme.
Although Wang Chong had already sent a few letters asking Su Hanshan and Li Siye to exercise restraint, there were some things that even the two of them could not control.
At the beginning, there were only one or two people, but later, more and more people talked about it. In the end, the three Confucian commanders had to directly issue an order to strictly prohibit talking about anything related to Khorasan. Violators will be dealt with according to military law. Soon there were three soldiers who talked about Khorasan and vented their dissatisfaction. They were discovered by the Confucian supervisors in the army and were arrested and imprisoned. Then more and more people got the news and gathered around to participate in it.
The three Confucian commanders directly ordered everyone to be arrested. By the time Su Hanshan and Li Siye got the news, it was already too late. Because among those who were arrested were the horse bandits trained by Su Hanshan, and the black-scarred iron cavalry under Li Siye. The former has a bad temper and is easily agitated, while the latter is dissatisfied because he sacrificed so many people in two consecutive battles, but all of them went to waste.
Although the two of them received the news from Wang Chong and asked the entire army to restrain themselves, at this time, as the leader, they could only participate in the confrontation with the three Confucian marshals in order to protect their subordinates. The last thing the two of them did was to write this letter before they came forward, telling Wang Chong the whole story.
"So, Su Hanshan and Li Siye have all been arrested and imprisoned now!"
After Wang Chong read the letter, his expression changed. Man is not as good as God, even though he has tried his best to stop it, it is still too late.
Both Su Hanshan and Li Siye were the backbone of Wang Chong's side. They lived and died together with Wang Chong, and experienced two battles in succession. Li Siye had been by his side as early as in the southwest. It is impossible for Wang Chong to ignore the accident between these two people. Because of this, Wang Chong can understand better,
When Wushang Iron Cavalry and the ballista troops trained by the horse bandits under Su Hanshan's command were captured by Confucianism and dealt with by military law, why did the two of them stand up and stand up against the three Confucian commanders knowing that they could do nothing?
Everything seemed normal, but Wang Chong could smell a strong conspiracy.
"Eagle, before I asked Su Hanshan and Li Siye to apply for transfer back, and the Ministry of War has already agreed. Why have the two of them remained silent for so long and are still there?"
Wang Chong said suddenly.
Since meeting Li Junxian, Wang Chong has mentioned to Su Hanshan and Li Siye that they should apply to be transferred from the frontier to the inland, whether it is the capital or the southwest, or Longxi, or even Youzhou in the northwest, all of them are not. The problem, given Wang Chong's current relationship with the generals of all parties, is not a problem at all. In addition, the special environment in which soldiers and Confucians disputed with each other also prevented any problems in the transfer of Su Hanshan and Li Siye, not to mention that Wang Chong had already obtained approval from Zhangchou Jianqiong.
"Not long ago, the two of them replied a letter saying that they did what the adults said, but all the approval documents, including the military orders of the Ministry of War, were all stuck by the three Confucian commanders. There are not enough generals in the army beyond the three Because of this, Su Hanshan and Li Siye were all kept in the army."
Eagle lowered his head and said in a deep voice.
"asshole!"
Wang Chong's expression sank, and his expression suddenly became extremely cold. If it was a premonition before, then Wang Chong can now be sure that what happened in the northwest seems to be accidental, but in fact everything is intentional. .
Li Junxian!
Suddenly, a thought flashed in Wang Chong's mind. He remembered the young man in white Confucian clothes in Zuiyue Tower. The "battle" between the two came much faster than expected.
"Help me contact Zhangchou Jianqiong, Minister of the Ministry of War, and tell him to let the Ministry of War intervene in this matter immediately. In addition, immediately write two letters for me, one to Anxi Governor's Mansion and one to Longxi, please Gao Xianzhi, Feng Chang Qing, and Beidou General Ge Shuhan helped me to join forces to put pressure on me. In addition, if possible, let Beiting General Guard An Sishun come forward at the same time. Now all the generals of the Ministry of War are grasshoppers on the same rope, An Sishun You should know what to do. I want to see, the three imperial generals join forces with the Ministry of War to put pressure on them, who dares to act rashly!"
Wang Chong's expression was extremely cold:
"In addition, Zhang Que, you take my token, and then go to the Palace of the King of Song, take the tokens of me and the King of Song, travel day and night, and go to Qixi immediately. The court is fine, I want to see, In the army, do they dare to fight against the entire Ministry of War and all the generals and generals in the world!"
The three generals, the two princes, and the Minister of War Zhangchou Jianqiong, this is definitely an unimaginably huge force, enough to make anyone deeply awed by it.
"Yes, my lord!"
Both Eagle and Zhang Que took orders and left.
"Cheng Sanyuan, please contact Minister of War Zhang Qiu Jianqiong immediately, I want to know all the information of the three Confucian commanders, the sooner the better!"
Wang Chong said in a deep voice.
"Subordinates obey!"
Cheng Sanyuan bowed quickly.
"Xu Keyi, it's inappropriate to come and go, you prepare a memorial for me, and I will sue all three Confucian commanders to the court!"
Wang Chong turned his head and looked in the direction of the imperial palace, with a dazzling light in his eyes.
Hearing this sentence, Xu Keyi was overjoyed, and quickly lowered her head:
"Subordinates obey!"
"Boom!"
A few hours later, when Wang Chong's memorial was handed over to the court and heard by all civil and military officials, it immediately caused great waves in the capital. As a new generation of God of War with a prominent reputation in the empire, Wang Chong has a very high reputation both inside and outside the court. Whether he is a disciple of the emperor, his achievements in the northwest, and his status as a foreign king, Wang Chong's words and deeds have a decisive weight. .
This was the first time that Wang Chong had formally impeached in the court hall after he took the position of King of Foreign Lands, and the targets were the three newly appointed Confucian commanders in the Qixi Protectorate Army. After the incident broke out, it immediately caused a huge sensation inside and outside the ruling and opposition parties.
...
"Clatter!"
When Wang Chong's memorial caused great waves in the imperial capital, only the sound of wings breaking across the sky was heard. In the night, a white pigeon quickly flew into a remote and quiet bamboo garden in the northwest of the capital. In the bamboo garden, a little candlelight was on. After the candlelight, a white-clothed Confucian scholar sat upright with elegant demeanor, flipping through an ancient book by the candlelight.
"Young Master, what should we do? The opponent's counterattack was too fast. The Northwest side just took his subordinates to the knife, and he immediately took action and sued them directly to the court. In the military, I'm afraid we can't do it for the time being." Can't beat him."
In the darkness, a voice came. Just behind Li Junxian, an old man in black was bowing to serve him. On his right wrist, there was a faint ink mark, which was the master of Confucianism.
Wang Chong's counterattack was too fast and violent. In everyone's plan, it was originally intended to blackmail Wang Chong through Wang Chong's subordinates in the northwest, and make him cast a scruple. At least let him rush to the northwest, so he can't be distracted. However, I didn't expect that Wang Chong's reaction would be so intense, it was completely aimed at Maimang, but it caught them by surprise.
"Young master, there is also news from our people in the military department that Zhangchou Jianqiong is already drafting a military order to put pressure on the three masters in our sect in the northwest. It is impossible for Zhangchou Jianqiong to know the news so quickly, it must be the foreign king He was notified. Since the Ministry of War has intervened, I am afraid that other directions will inevitably make moves, and now we are at a disadvantage. Young master, we need to notify Wen Changqing, Tang Chengyu and Li Fanming to let go of the two subordinates of the foreign king and All the interned NCOs?"
Another voice came from the side, and in the faint firelight, a figure was vaguely outlined, but it was a young woman who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old. This girl is wearing a plain white gown, her hair is as black as ink, and strands of hair are pouring down from the top of her head like a waterfall. She is tied up with a wooden hairpin without any decorations. It looks peaceful and elegant, like a plant. Orchid-like feeling.
However, the most noticeable thing is the majestic skill in this girl. If you look carefully, you will find that the girl is actually barefoot, floating a few inches away from the air. Those toes were delicate and round, as if carved from white jade, and even shimmered in the candlelight.
Li Junxian didn't speak, but slowly looked up from the ancient scroll in his hand. The faint candlelight was projected on him, and a tall figure was reflected on the wall behind him, giving people an extremely remote and peaceful feeling, like an ancient well, a deep pool, unable to stir up any ripples.
The room was quiet, and the Confucian old man and the girl in white behind them all looked at Li Junxian quietly, waiting for his reply.
