Everyone listened to Zhang Mo's resentful words, looked at each other and laughed.
They all understood in their hearts that although Liu Mingzhi's current power was not qualified to kill Zhang Mo, the commander-in-chief of the Anxi Protectorate, it didn't necessarily mean that Young Master Liu would not dare to actually kill Zhang Mo.
Young Master Liu only reached a certain position when he was rescuing disasters in Qingzhou and suppressing bandits in the south of the Yangtze River. The governor was turned over to him. Several governors were tried by the Three Law Divisions, but all of them were executed on the spot by Young Master Liu!
According to the Dalong Law, if you want to deal with officials of the fourth grade or above, they must be submitted to the Three Laws Division for trial, Dali Temple will convict them, and the Ministry of Punishment will record the case before the Autumn Queen can be executed.
But Young Master Liu is not following common sense. As long as you plead guilty, do you still want to see the trial of the three judicial divisions? Don’t even think about it. If you are told to rectify the Fa on the spot, you will be rectified on the spot!
With this national crisis at the forefront, Liu Mingzhi is under so much pressure that it is not impossible to kill Zhang Mo, his cousin Zheng Junfa.
After all, it’s not just once or twice that Young Master Liu has done something outrageous!
When the laughter ended, Zhang Mo turned behind him and his expression became majestic. It was completely different from the expression when he faced Yunyang and the others. He looked at the generals from the Western Regions and stared at them. He said to himself that Commander Zhang was indeed worthy of his honor. He is a dog-faced person, so he will change as soon as he is told! .
"Old man, uncles, and juniors, let me introduce you to the friends behind you!"
"The King of Gumo Kingdom, Gumo Rongrong, heard that Dalong needed help, and personally led the 90,000 elite troops of Gumo Kingdom to follow my juniors and rush thousands of miles to support our border war!"
"Little Wang Aunt Mo Rongrong has met all the generals!"
Gu Mo Rongrong's wild and beautiful side made everyone's eyes brighten, and they secretly said that she was like a heroine and a strange woman.
But it was just to admire Gumo Rongrong. There was no one in the room who was not married and had children. He had already passed the age of getting excited when he saw a beautiful woman.
What's more, about the scandal between Young Master Liu and Gu Mo Rongrong in the Western Regions, some big shots present had heard about it thanks to the mouths of Cheng Kai and others.
When the Cheng Kai brothers were drinking in their spare time, they often murmured about this matter at the wine table.
A group of seniors cursed Mr. Liu for being a merciless playboy but didn't say anything.
Several years have passed, and many people have forgotten this matter. After hearing Zhang Mo's introduction today, this dusty matter once again echoed in everyone's minds.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, these people did not put on airs to Gumo Rongrong as the general of the sovereign state. They looked at Gumo Rongrong with a faint smile and asked her to get up.
"Your Majesty refuses to give you a gift, but we dare not accept your Majesty's gift!"
"Thank you generals!"
"This is Qiao Louming, the general of Loulan Kingdom!"
"Young general Qiao Louming meets all the great generals!"
"No gift!"
"This is the general of Kucha Kingdom..."
After Zhang Mo introduced the guests, Yunyang and others' expressions became serious and they stopped joking.
"As we walked, we said that the army has prepared meals for you. The Turkic army is retreating eastward. It is estimated that it will join forces with the Jin Kingdom. Its destination is no other than Jeju, Yingzhou, and Fuzhou. We must immediately support Liu Shuai and the others. , if you go late, big trouble will happen!"
"With the current strength of the three cities in the east, if we cannot provide timely reinforcements and the two countries join forces, I am afraid that the three cities of Yingzhou will fall in less than three days, causing them to march straight in and disturb the peace of the people in the hinterland of our dragon! "
"Okay, seniors, please!"
"Jiang Lei!"
"The general is here, Commander, give your orders!"
"The Golden Eagle immediately sends a message to your Commander Liu, telling him that reinforcements have arrived, and we will support them immediately, so that they must hold on no matter what!"
"Yes, the general will go right away!"
.............
"Commander, Wanyan Chizha has withdrawn his troops again. The offensive in the past two days has been much lighter, and the pressure on the brothers is not so great anymore!"
Liu Mingzhi raised his eyes and glanced at Song Qing who walked in, and once again focused on the main road of the six cities in Northern Xinjiang!
"Expected!"
Song Qing looked at Liu Dashao blankly: "The commander had already guessed that Wanyan Chizha would relax his offensive?"
"That's right. It's just that Wanyan Chizha misjudged their intelligence. Otherwise, he would rather fight us to the death than tear a hole in our Yingzhou for Yeruha on the right!"
"What do you mean? Marshal, can you explain it more clearly? It's like playing a riddle. I will really listen..."
"Report! Report to the commander-in-chief, there is still no reply from the capital, and there is no sign of reinforcements from the south. This is already the thirteenth emergency document sent to the capital, but all of them have been thrown into the sea without any movement!"
Song Qing was interrupted by Cheng Kai's sudden entry. Cheng Kai's brows were furrowed and he looked worriedly at Young Master Liu who was sitting in front of the sand table.
Liu Mingzhi put down the bamboo pole in his hand and walked towards the map with his hands behind his back.
"There is no news of the three hundred thousand new recruits going to the North?"
Cheng Kai nodded with a heavy face: "There is no movement. It is understandable that something happened to one letter, but something happened to all thirteen letters. This is impossible."
"Even if the fast horse is intercepted by the masters of the Jin Kingdom or the Turks, the golden eagle will not be able to do so!"
"There has been no news of reinforcements, and the morale of our brothers is getting worse day by day!"
Liu Mingzhi sighed softly: "Something must have happened in the capital, but you don't have to worry about reinforcements. I have other plans!"
"It's been thirty-five days, it should be here soon, it should be here soon!"
"How long have we been away from Beijing?"
"It's only four months since the new recruits became regular soldiers in March. Logically speaking, they should have arrived long ago!"
Liu Mingzhi raised his hand slightly: "Don't talk about the reinforcements anymore. Send me the commander's order for all soldiers and horses to enter the city, whether they are cavalry or infantry, all enter the city!"
"The golden eagle passes the letter to Fuer, Ning Chao, let them lead the brothers from the two guards to settle in Jeju quickly. The pressure on us is coming!"
"ah?"
"Ah what, go quickly!"
"Got the order!"
"Commander, I can't bear it. Do you still want to send a message to Baoyu?"
"No need, we will probably see them soon!"
"yes!"
"Report! Commander, a young man carrying the flag of the Pagoda Army fainted outside the camp. It seems that it was caused by lack of water!"
Liu Mingzhi was stunned for a moment and whispered the flag of the Futu Army. He couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.
"Bring him in quickly and do everything possible to revive him!"
"yes!"
That night!
The lights in the Chinese army tent were brightly lit. When Liu Mingzhi heard that Chen Jiabao had woken up, he hurriedly ran in. Chen Jiabao's identity had long been recognized by Song Qing, Cheng Kai and others.
After all, he is someone who often follows Duan Canren, so he must be familiar to several people.
"Chen Jiabao, a humble official, meets the commander-in-chief!"
"Good brother, please forgive me. What's going on? Why can't you bear the banner of your Pagoda Army?"
Chen Jiabao suddenly burst into tears, picked up the flag that had been placed beside the bed, knelt down in front of Liu Mingzhi and howled.
"Commander, we are in Baochuan County, Yunzhou..."
After a long time, Liu Mingzhi looked at the blood-stained flag in his hand with trembling lips, and stumbled forward.
Song Qing, with quick hands and quick eyes, supported Young Master Liu and looked at Young Master Liu with a sad face: "Commander, my condolences!"
"Commander, my condolences!"
"My condolences, Commander!"
"Please express my condolences, Commander!"
Liu Mingzhi was helped by Song Qing to a chair and sat down. He stared blankly at the flag in his hand and started to tremble.
"I can't bear it! I can't bear it and he died in the battle?"
Song Qing nodded silently and hummed softly.
Liu Mingzhi closed his eyes tightly.
"It's been seven years. You've been with me for seven years. Why did you die in battle! Why did you die in battle?"
"I even went to his daughter's full-moon wine party, why did he die in battle!"
"Please express my condolences, Commander!"
Chen Jiabao wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and looked at Young Master Liu sadly.
"Commander, please have mercy and don't revoke the flag of our Futu Army! It's been disrupted and everything has become a mess. We don't even know how many battalions of brothers from the 10th Battalion of the 1st Guards are left!"
"According to the regulations, if the number of the first-guard battalion is less than half, the flag will be withdrawn and the number will be changed. Commander, please keep our flag for the sake of our brothers who are brave and loyal and sacrifice their lives for the country!"
"This is the general's only thought before a deadly battle!"
Liu Mingzhi blinked his eyes and nodded while suppressing the grief in his heart.
"Vice Admiral Song, please send a letter to the Ministry of War with this king's order. Even if there is only one person left in the Futu Army, the Ministry of War is not allowed to withdraw the flag and change the name!"
"Whoever dares to dissatisfy and wants to withdraw the flag, let him come to northern Xinjiang and exchange for my head, Liu Mingzhi's neck!"
Song Qing was startled and looked hesitant.
"What if someone writes to Your Majesty that this move is not in compliance with the customs and His Majesty orders the flag to be removed? After all, this is a rule that everyone has adhered to for many years, and Your Majesty cannot violate the ancestral rules!"
"Then you lead troops back to the capital for me, and I will pacify all the officials who submitted the letter, no matter how many there are!"
"I led my brothers to guard the gate in northern Xinjiang and fought bloody battles to defend our home and country. More than 100,000 of our brothers were killed or injured. When will it be their turn to be a bunch of sour scholars and point fingers at me!"
"Add one more sentence to me in the order!"
"Any unconvinced official who wants to compete with me can come to Northern Xinjiang with his head and give it a try!"
"I let him die in Yingzhou on the third watch, and the King of Hell can't keep him until the fifth watch!"
"That's what I, Liu Mingzhi, said, don't miss a word, don't change a word!"
"Gudu!"
"Why are you stunned? Go quickly!"
"Got...got the order!"
"Thank you to Marshal Chen for your humble position, thank you to Marshal!"
"General, have you seen it in heaven? Jiabao has lived up to your trust!"
"The flag is saved, the flag is saved!"
