"Lord Zhao has decided that for the Beijing army to support the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu, Commander Guan will let you personally lead the troops!"
While speaking, Xu Qingyan's expression was calm, as if he had said something trivial, but Guan Wuyuan's expression changed drastically, and he was still slightly panicked.
If we lead troops to support the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu, don't we have to go to the battlefield? The Mongolian Tatars have always been brutal. If they were targeted on the battlefield, wouldn't their lives be in danger?
Guan Wuyuan, who had just ridiculed Ma Tengyun, Wang Fen, Zhang Min and others for being as timid as a mouse and as afraid of the enemy as a tiger, suddenly turned pale with fear on his red face.
Therefore, Guan Wuyuanqiang said with a smile: "Brother Xu is joking, why does Mr. Zhao want me to lead the troops to the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu? I still have to stay in the capital to serve Mr. Zhao... What's more, the person who decides to lead the troops is I’m afraid Mr. Zhao won’t be able to interfere with the Ministry of War affairs…”
In front of outsiders, Xu Qingyan would always deliberately imitate Zhao Junchen's behavior, and it was the same now.
After seeing Guan Wuyuan's panic, Xu Qingyan flashed a trace of disdain in his eyes, but his expression was calm and calm. After returning to his seat and sitting down, he raised his hand and said to Guan Wuyuan: "About this matter, Mr. Zhao, he is I have seriously considered it for the sake of Commander Guan... Well, Commander Guan, let's sit down and talk."
After Guan Wuyuan reluctantly sat down, Xu Qingyan continued: "Because of the constant urging of Mr. Liang Ge, the imperial court attached great importance to border defense matters in Shaanxi-Gansu, Shanxi and other places. It not only provided a large amount of money and food, but also supported a total of 200,000 elite soldiers. With sufficient food, grass and troops, coupled with the vigilance and attention of the imperial court, it will be enough to resist this year's fire-swept invaders. Therefore, Mr. Zhao asked Commander Guan to personally lead the troops to the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu. He definitely did not want to harm Commander Guan. Instead, I want Commander Guan to take the opportunity to gain some military exploits, and then Master Zhao can operate secretly so that Commander Guan can take further steps and rise higher!"
After hearing what Xu Qingyan said, Guan Wuyuan seemed a little moved, but he was still hesitant, obviously worried about his own safety.
So, Xu Qingyan added: "The twenty-six guards in the capital are all carefully selected soldiers with strong bodies and extraordinary martial arts. Although their military equipment has been somewhat slack in recent years, they are still much stronger than the old, weak and remnant soldiers in the three-sided military town." In previous years, Shaanxi and Gansu have relied on these vulnerable military and town soldiers to repeatedly resist the invasion of the Mongolian Tatars. It is also rare to hear that a general soldier died on the battlefield. The commander-in-chief commanded 50,000 elite soldiers from the capital, so what? What danger is there? In fact, after Commander Guan entered Shaanxi and Gansu, his status was second only to Wang Zheng, the governor of the three sides. By then, he would definitely be above Commander Zhang in strategizing, so the danger would be even lower...
Moreover, among the hundreds of thousands of Forbidden Army, there are always some brave generals and elite soldiers. If Commander Guan is still uneasy, he can transfer all the elite soldiers and generals from the Forbidden Army to his own account. Commander Guan has always been With good connections, anyone will give you a face. As long as Commander Guan asks for someone, no one will refuse. At that time, Commander Guan will have elite soldiers and guards and a cloud of fierce generals under his command. What else can he do? safe?
Therefore, after Commander Guan leads his troops to the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu, not only will he not encounter danger, but once he defeats the Mongolian Tatars, he will gain a lot of military exploits! Mr. Zhao has promised that as long as you lead troops to the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu, after the war is over, you will become the upper guard of the second-level Wuxunzheng, and it is even possible to become the first-level Zhuguo! "
After hearing Xu Qingyan's instigation, Guan Wuyuan's eyes couldn't help but hesitant. After all, the ferocity of the Mongolian cavalry has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The Ming army has rarely won in recent years, and in the end timidity prevailed. Although Xu Qingyan's description is very beautiful. , but after all, it is your own life that matters.
Therefore, Guan Wuyuan said: "Guan naturally understands Mr. Zhao's good intentions. However, the choice of leader is a matter between the cabinet and the Ministry of War. Who will lead the troops to the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu in the end? Mr. Zhao and Guan You all can’t make the decision, even if Guan wants to go into battle to kill the enemy, I’m afraid he won’t be able to do so..."
Seeing that Guan Wuyuan was still evasive, Xu Qingyan sneered: "Does Commander Guan think that Xu doesn't know the news? The Ministry of War appointed three candidates in succession, namely Ma Tengyun, Wang Fen, and Zhang Min, but these three people all made excuses To avoid war, now the Ministry of War is also having a headache about this matter. Today, Wang Shou of the Ministry of War hosted a banquet for the generals in the capital, just to discuss a candidate to lead the army. At this time, as long as Commander Guan comes forward, who will compete with you? "
At this point, Xu Qingyan's expression became a little cold, and he asked again: "Why, is it because the military commander is unwilling to cooperate with my Lord Zhao?"
After nearly a year of cooperation, Guan Wuyuan not only fell into Zhao Junchen's hands with more and more information, but also relied more and more on Zhao Junchen's financial support, so Guan Wuyuan did not have the ability to refuse Zhao Junchen at all.
However, Guan Wuyuan is Zhao Junchen's most important chess piece in the army after all, so Zhao Junchen is not willing to threaten Guan Wuyuan easily. Today, he mainly focused on persuasion and inducement, but now that Guan Wuyuan has repeatedly pushed back, Xu Qingyan still threatens vaguely. One sentence.
Guan Wuyuan was also a tough guy, but after hearing Xu Qingyan's threat, his expression changed, and he quickly gave in!
Finally, Guan Wuyuan gritted his teeth and said, "In that case, I will follow Mr. Zhao's advice!"
Seeing that Guan Wuyuan finally agreed, Xu Qingyan's face softened slightly and he nodded: "Commander Guan should understand that Master Zhao will never let his own people suffer. This time, Commander Guan will lead troops to the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu. I've gained something... By the way, there is a staff member named Niu Fude in Mr. Zhao's mansion. He has always been good at military strategy. This time he will go to Shaanxi and Gansu with Commander Guan. He will definitely be able to make suggestions for Commander Guan... Mr. Zhao Another suggestion is that in Yansui Military Town on the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu, there is a Qianhu family named Qi Bin, who is a descendant of Qi Shaobao. He is also good at training and commanding troops, and he has an elite army with even greater combat power. Zhuo Zhuo, after Commander Guan arrives in Shaanxi and Gansu, he must find a way to transfer this person to his account, which will definitely bring many benefits..."
That night, Wang Shou, the Minister of War, bought the most famous "Luwei Tower" in the capital to entertain the commanders and soldiers in the capital, and to discuss the candidates to lead the troops to support the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu.
After all the guests had arrived, Wang Shou said slowly: "Everyone, the imperial court has decided to dispatch 50,000 elite troops from the Beijing army to support the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu. The order has been issued for five days, but we still haven't made a decision yet. If the selection of the leader of the army continues to be delayed like this, not only will the world laugh at the imperial army for being timid in battle, but once His Majesty becomes angry, we will all be implicated, so we will take advantage of today's opportunity to discuss who will be the leader. Lead troops to the three sides of Shaanxi and Gansu? Is there any general who comes forward to volunteer? I hereby guarantee that after the fire screening of the invaders is over, I will definitely recommend it to the imperial court!"
However, after Wang Shou finished speaking, all the generals present were silent, and no one took the initiative to answer.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Wang Shou couldn't help but look angry and planned to scold him.
However, at this moment, Guan Wuyuan slowly stood up, and under the surprised gazes of everyone, he said with a grimace: "I wish to go to my humble position!"
