Chapter 423 Limelight
Secondly, I also don't want Bai Qingyan to establish too much prestige in the army, otherwise, once Bai Qingyan's reputation is as high as that of Bai Weiting, with Bai Qingyan's staunch temperament and little respect for the royal family, Bai Qingyan will definitely embrace him. Soldiers are self-respecting, not to mention that the emperor is not easy to control, if Bai Qingyan is not handled properly, the army may rebel.
From the bottom of his heart, Liu Hong respected the daughter of the Bai family, Lang, who had defeated Xiliang in southern Xinjiang while dragging his sickly body.
So at the beginning, Liu Hong also felt that the emperor was a little worried, but when he went back, he thought about Bai Qingyan's generous statement at the palace banquet, and thought of Bai Qingyan's beating on Dengwen drum to force King Xin to be killed, but he felt that the emperor's worries were not groundless .
Liu Hong knew in his heart that he didn't have the same ability as King Bai Weiting and Lord Bai Qishan. The reason why the emperor asked him to be the coach this time was simply because he had been loyal to the emperor since before he ascended to the supreme position, and never There is no ambition to seize power, and it has not changed so far.
Therefore, when Liu Hong learned that Bai Qingyan had traveled all the way from Shuoyang on a fast horse and led a team of guards straight to Longyang City, when he thought that the emperor could not let Bai Qingyan make military achievements unless it was a last resort, he was so anxious that he decided to give up. Abandoning the army, he brought a team of cavalry day and night.
Liu Hong was afraid of sending other people, but they would not be able to suppress Bai Qingyan, but he was the commander-in-chief of the first army, and Bai Qingyan had to listen to him.
But along the way, Liu Hong didn't get off his horse, and was tortured so badly that his inner thighs were all worn out by the saddle, and he even developed a high fever before entering the city. He heard from the guards in the city... When Bai Qingyan arrived, he went to bed without resting. In response to the battle, against the fierce general Zhao Tong of the Liang army, he subdued him with three moves, which greatly boosted the morale of the Jin army.
It was even predicted that the Liang army would take action at night, and the Jin army had just captured the Zhao family army who had sneaked into the city alive, and then Bai Qingyan ordered people to go to the Liang camp to burn Liang's grain and grass.
Seeing the defender's admiration beyond words, Liu Hong felt exhausted and didn't dare to rest, so he immediately ordered people to summon all the generals to go to the martial arts field.
In the martial arts arena, all the braziers erected high up were lit, the flags were flying, and the tongues of flames fluttered up and down with the wind, reflecting the martial arts arena as if it were daytime.
The pale Liu Hong sat on the chair. He felt hot and uncomfortable, his breathing was very hot, and his mouth was also hot.
It's not that he doesn't want to rest, it's just that he doesn't want the soldiers who retreated into Longyang City to feel that their coach is not as good as a girl.
Liu Hong was holding on to sit here with one breath, he was afraid that he would not wake up for a day after lying down, so he had to meet with the generals to make arrangements.
When Bai Qingyan and his party arrived, Liu Hong, who was wearing a heavy armor and cloak, was sitting on the high platform of the martial arts arena, with sword cavalry standing on the left and right sides, and the commander was very dignified.
"The general will meet the coach at the end!"
A group of people stood under the high platform and saluted Liu Hong.
Liu Hong originally wanted to get up, but his whole body was sore and limp, his joints were hot and painful, so he could only sit here and hand over to the generals: "Forgive me, generals, I occasionally feel cold and my body is sore, so I won't stand up. The officers and men obey the orders, and from now on, they will not be allowed to respond to the orders of the commander-in-chief! Those who violate the orders will be punished as treason! Everyone needs to stay in the city and wait for the reinforcements to arrive before making any calculations."
All the soldiers looked at me and I looked at you, clasped their fists and said yes.
Bai Qingyan raised his eyes to look at Liu Hong, Liu Hong hurriedly looked away, a little guilty and did not dare to meet Bai Qingyan's deep and calm eyes.
Liu Hong tried his best to chase after him all the way, just to give this order.
"Go to rest and recharge your batteries. As soon as the reinforcements arrive, we will drive Liang Jun back to Daliang!" After Liu Hongzhong finished speaking angrily, his personal guards hurriedly helped Liu Hong up from left to right.
Watching Liu Hong leave, Lin Kangle turned his head to look at Bai Qingyan who looked normal, his lips pursed but he didn't make a sound.
Who among the smart people present couldn't tell that Liu Hong gave this order to Bai Qing?
"General Bai came day and night, so he should rest. The reinforcements coming to Anping Camp will arrive in three days at the latest. By then, our Jin army is afraid that we will have a fierce battle with Daliang. General Bai will only have confidence in our Jin army! "Wang Xiping hurriedly stepped forward and said to Bai Qingyan, for fear that Bai Qingyan would feel uncomfortable.
Bai Qingyan nodded, cupped his fists and said goodbye to all the generals present.
Wang Xiping stood beside Lin Kangle, handed over his hands to send the others away, and then said: "This coach seems to be trying to suppress General Bai on purpose! Is he afraid that General Bai will steal the limelight from him as the coach?"
During the Battle of Southern Border, the crown prince was the commander in chief, but he won a complete victory...but it was all due to Bai Qingyan who didn't even have an official position at the time and took the tiger charm to lead the army.
Lin Kangle frowned: "In the midst of a great battle, as the commander-in-chief, he doesn't want to unite all the generals to defend against the enemy, but he is worried that his generals will take credit!"
Lin Kangle had once fought bloody battles with Bai Qingyan, and his relationship was unusual, so he naturally disliked Liu Hong's behavior.
Lin Kangle had indeed wronged Liu Hong, and Liu Hong didn't want to. He also admired Bai Qingyan in his heart, but the sacred order was hard to break.
·
In the big prison, in order to avoid multiple people being interrogated together, Lu Ping got inaccurate information, so he separated the eleven Zhao family soldiers, including the seriously injured one, and detained them separately and interrogated them separately.
The entire prison was filled with the desperate and miserable wails of the Zhao family army, and when I heard it... I thought I was in hell.
I have to say that Zhao Yi's old Jiang Jun was really good at interrogating the enemy's soldiers back then. The punishments used made life worse than death, especially when the small iron ball was burned red and put into the belly button, it was like dying. I want to die quickly.
Not only did Lu Ping find out the location of the granary, he also found out that Bai Jinzhi was in the Vulcan Mountain at dawn.
The Zhao family army led a team to rescue Zhao Tong. The team leader who was shot by Bai Qingyan at the center was tough, but in the end they didn't survive the torture. They learned that someone in their team had leaked the news and died before they came up. up.
Lu Ping didn't dare to delay, and went to Bai Qingyan with the results of the overnight interrogation.
Bai Qingyan flipped through the bamboo slips of separate interrogation, three of them said that Bai Jinzhi was in Vulcan Mountain, and the rest... didn't really know, but spit out something else.
Now that she knew the news about Bai Jinzhi, Bai Qingyan didn't want to delay, she thought for a while, and asked Lu Ping to carry the bamboo slips to the commander's barracks, and asked the commander to let her lead the troops to rescue Bai Jinzhi.
As soon as Bai Qingyan came out, Du Sanbao and his party came back.
Du Sanbao knew that Bai Qingyan was worried about Bai Jinzhi, so when he came back, he asked others to go to Wang Xiping to return to his life, and ran towards Bai Qingyan's barracks by himself.
Du Sanbao, who had just turned pale and his face was blackened by smoke, was sweating all over his head. He wiped his forehead with his sleeve, revealing only a white forehead, and a row of white teeth to Bai Qingyan. He folded his fists and knelt on one knee, saying: General, I grabbed two tongues and asked, saying that they don’t know where Lord Gaoyi is, but General Gu brought 10,000 people to Huoshen Mountain, presumably to capture County Lord Gaoyi.”
