Xiao Zicheng came out of the column and saluted, "If there is an army of one million, the generalissimo of the Shang army will definitely win in one battle, so that the state of Chu will flee." "With that, turn around and go back to work.

Xiao Wu wanted to give a thumbs up. It's not that my own son can't do it, it's not that I want an army, and I don't say whether I can win, anyway, there is definitely no million-strong army, and we don't know if we can win or not.

"Old fox!" the emperor scolded inwardly, and then frowned and asked, "Generalissimo Shangjun, how are you going to fight?"

Xiao Wuxin said, "It's here!"

He discussed this matter with Xiao Zicheng, and he directly followed his father's words and said, "The last general thinks that the 200,000 army will hold the left flank, the 200,000 will hold the right flank, and the 200,000 army will hold the middle army." Three sides can be determined. In addition, the last general personally commanded an army of 400,000 as the rearguard, and came and went to support. We must ensure that the southwest is foolproof!"

The Emperor's hands trembled a little. Don't you know that the three battalions have been mobilized now? Don't you know that I am going to give you a total of 300,000 people? You will have a million troops in this move, are you kidding? But this is a joke, you can't let Xiao Wu take the order, and this court will become a joke.

"Haha, haha, haha!" the emperor forced himself to laugh, "The generalissimo is really so courageous!"

Xiao Wu disdainful, Mao's spirit, won't you seriously think of a word to praise me?

The emperor looked at the ministers, "What do the ministers think?"

The emperor is looking for someone to top the tank! The people of the Xiao family must not come forward and say anything about "what the generalissimo said is extremely true," that is, they are just facing the emperor.

Seeing a civil official at the end of the class, Xiao Wu looked at it and didn't see what the official position was.

"Weichen thinks that the 500,000 army of Chu is just a chicken. The three sides of the southwest can be dealt with. The generalissimo just had to go to command. ”

The emperor smiled, "Oh, why does Wen Aiqing think so?"

The minister surnamed Wen saluted, "Don't say that I am a great Song Dynasty border army and have brilliant military achievements, not to mention that the generalissimo of the Shang army is young and promising, and he is a pedantic man." Speaking of the barbarian land of Chu alone, I am afraid that many of the 500,000 troops are old, weak, sick and disabled. According to its population, it is the limit that 300,000 can be obtained by young and strong. The highlands of Chu Guoshan are dangerous, and it is not easy to transport grain, so Weichen thought that he could go to another 100,000. In addition, the strong walls of my Great Song Dynasty border city are thick, and I can go to its 100,000 soldiers and horses. ”

Lord Nawen stroked his beard, "The previous month, Xiao University was transferred, and all the elite generals of my Great Song Dynasty were transferred to the southwest, so I should be able to go to his 100,000 horses again!"

Xiao Wu was shocked when he heard this, people sent 500,000 troops, and you said that there were 500,000 people left?

Lord Nawen seemed to have found a feeling, and arched his hand, "Therefore, Weichen thinks that the generalissimo going to the southwest alone is just to lead the battle and clean up the battlefield." ”

The Emperor smiled when he heard this. Next, as long as he makes a generous gesture and waves his hand, even in such a good situation, he still decides to send 100,000 reinforcements, and then encourage Xiao Wu, so that he can only succeed and not fail, and this matter will be lived.

"Haha, Wen Aiqing is talented!" the emperor smiled.

Xiao Wu saw that his father didn't mean to speak, and obviously knew that there was a big discussion in the court, but he just went through the motions and said the things that had been discussed in private. But Xiao Wu can't stand this anger, it's too little to give 100,000 people, why is there no one on the opposite side of the enemy when he comes and goes?

Xiao Wu stood up suddenly, and the leaves of his armor crackled. The Emperor stopped speaking and asked, "The Generalissimo has something to say?"

Xiao Wu hugged his fists and said, "This Lord Wen, I don't know what to call it?"

The civil official bowed his head and saluted, "I don't dare to be called so a generalissimo." ”

Xiao Wu nodded, "It's okay if you don't dare to be, that Xiaowen, what's your name, how old are you this year?"

The civil official was stunned for a moment, his face turned red, but he couldn't say anything, "Back to the generalissimo, Wen Chengzuo, a member of the Weichen Household Department." ”

"Oh~!" Xiao Wu suddenly realized, "It turned out to be Xiao Zuozuo!"

But the crown prince, who was standing behind the emperor, couldn't help but laugh directly.

Although this Wen Chengzuo is not a white-bearded old man, he is also in his forties, and he is called Xiao Zuozuo, but he does not dare to attack. Let's see that the green tendons on the back of his neck are bursting out, and his eyes are even red, but he can't have a seizure. Xiao Wu is a Shangguan, and he is in the court, what can he do?

Xiao Wu turned to the emperor and bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, the last general sees that Lord Wen is talented, and he has both the same thing at first sight, and wants Lord Wen to accompany him to the military aircraft." I also ask for your Majesty's permission. After that, he knelt on one knee in front of the emperor and bowed his head in salute. This is the "plea".

The emperor's face is not very good-looking, this Wen Chengzuo is singing a double reed with himself, the level is not high, no matter how you say it, it will not affect too much, this is an ideal candidate.

Originally, the emperor said that he could go back with two sentences of busy official business, but Xiao Wu knelt down like that, the commander of the first army who was going to go on the expedition, and he was the first rank of the dynasty, how could you refuse? Not to mention that he wanted a five-grade Xiaolangzhong, and he couldn't refuse.

The emperor had no choice but to smile and say, "This is natural, the war in the southwest, I will definitely support it." ”

Xiao Wu bowed again, "Your Majesty." ”

Then he got up, looked back at the whole group of courtiers, and whoever he looked at lowered his eyebrows and quickly shifted his gaze, and at the same time lowered his head and shrunk his neck, as if he could protect himself in this way. Only the generals transferred to the capital by the Xiao family raised their heads one by one, as if they wished that Xiao Wu would take them to the front line.

Xiao Wu said with a slight gloom, "The last general will lead the troops for the first time, and the civil and military will need the assistance of several people. ”

The emperor's face was gloomy, but he still smiled, "Although the scholars and squires of the various ministries are talented, don't bring the generalissimo, this is the mainstay of my Great Song Dynasty." I still need to ask for advice from time to time. ”

Obviously, those high-ranking officials breathed a sigh of relief, and it was impossible for them to leave, but they were glued by Xiao Wu, and they were disgusted.

Xiao Wu nodded and said, "In that case, then I will remove you from the list." ”

What do you mean? What are you really going to let us go? The high-ranking officials all showed fierce faces.

Xiao Wu said again, "Well, as for the specific list, Zuo Zuo! You draw up a copy for me, and I will pick from your list." ”

"Huh?" Wen Chengzuo came down in a cold sweat. This is to offend people, you don't need to really push anyone out, as long as someone behind is pulled to the front line, you have to calculate a sum on your head. Besides, the relationship between the emperor and the old Xiao family is very delicate, and who knows whether it is life or death when he is involved.

Xiao Wu approached Wen Chengzuo directly, "Zuozuo, whoever you see is more pleasing to the eye, you can pick whoever you want." It's okay, in the future, you will be a subordinate officer of my Marshal's Mansion, whoever dares to bully you, we will bully whom!"

Wen Chengzuo is about to pee, big brother, don't bully me! At this time, Wen Chengzuo's official uniform was already wet with sweat, and his body was still trembling.

The emperor couldn't stand it anymore, and waved his hand, "Master Wen, let's step back first, think carefully, and raise your talents for the generalissimo." ”

Seeing a military discussion, developing in an unknowable direction, the emperor held his forehead with his hand, which was really a little difficult to accept. But the army was ready, and it was imperative to send troops, so I had to go into battle shirtless.

The emperor organized his language and said slowly, "The generalissimo is really my Great Song Dynasty Zhushi, and he is also a first-class young talent of my Great Song Dynasty! The generalissimo's departure will inevitably cause the Chu State army to collapse." ”

Xiao Wu looked at the emperor's smiling face, this is wearing a high hat for himself!

Xiao Wu said, "Alas, it's really a shallow general, and I'm just seventeen years old this year, I'm afraid it's difficult to be a big responsibility." "Don't talk nonsense about winning, I won't get this package ticket, the master is only seventeen, I don't want to go if I can.

The emperor also said, "Aiqing is not only the generalissimo of the Shang army, but also a descendant of the Xiao family. "You have to go, you have to go, you have to go if you don't go! Who made you the generalissimo!

"Military affairs, in the hands of a young man at the end of the general, I am afraid it is difficult to take on a big responsibility. "If I can't go, I won't go!

"Since ancient times, heroes have come out of youth, why should the generalissimo be too humble. "Don't say it, it's been decided a long time ago.

"If you do something less, if you make a mistake, you may become a national sinner. "It's okay to go, don't rely on me if you lose.

"The blade of the sword is sharpened! The young man should be tempered!" The emperor even stood up, walked down directly from the Dan Majesty, and grabbed Xiao Wu's shoulders with both hands, "The generalissimo is a model for my Song Dynasty youth, tempering his courage, achieving a heroic spirit, and if he becomes a great talent, he will be in the army!"

Xiao Wu smiled, "Your Majesty Xie encourages!"

The emperor laughed and said, "In this case, Generalissimo Xiao is ready to go on the expedition!" The emperor took the tiger talisman from the eunuch's hand, "The three battalions of the Beijing Division, 100,000 troops are with you, and the day the generalissimo arrives at the southwest border, the army of the three sides in the southwest can be dispatched." Generalissimo Xiao Wu of the Shang Army, Receiving Talisman!"

Xiao Wu knelt down on one knee, "The last general still has a reluctant request." ”

Why is there still something to do? Is there no end? Isn't it all here to show loyalty, and it's over?

The emperor maintained his bloody momentum and shouted, "Generalissimo, please speak!"

Xiao Wu said, "Today, Your Majesty's words woke up the people in your dreams, and we and other young people must be tempered! The last general begs, please allow your majesty to bring a hundred students and young generals with me! Let me wait to be tempered and become a great talent!"

What are the things? Hundreds of students, young generals, The emperor is still in the circle, but the ministers below have already inhaled one after another, and the air in the hall seems to be thin.

Xiao Zicheng showed a smile on his face, and he almost laughed out loud. If it weren't for so many years of training in the court, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to hold back and be happy at this time.

The emperor looked at the faces of the ministers, and instantly understood what Xiao Wu meant. At this point, I could barely maintain a smile on my face. Really smile on the surface, and sell batches in the heart!

The most embarrassing moment in the court was the sudden silence of the air. The ministers really don't dare to speak, what about the handover of the military talismans over there, as soon as you say it here, what does the emperor think? The ministers can only hold their breath and stare at it, what does the emperor mean?

Xiao Wu broke the silence, "Your Majesty Mingjian! All good men must be obtained in the field! All real men must be obtained from the army! As the prince's attendant, the last general will bring out a first-class good man for my Great Song Dynasty! Please Your Majesty's permission!"

Xiao Wu raised his eyes to see that the emperor was still hesitating. But seeing behind the emperor, the prince's eyes were blazing, as if his blood was boiling. Xiao Wu decided to work harder, and even silently mobilized his true qi to make his voice appear more ethereal, as if there was a hint of temptation.

But it was the stall that had just watched the play, and Xiao Wu was already communicating with the old fairy in his mind, hoping that the old fairy could give a demagogic method. Although the old immortal is unreliable, it can be regarded as a treasure trove of magic. He directly gave Xiao Wu a small spell.

This spell has no effect on monks, and it has little effect on some determined people, but it still has some effect on some mortals who are not determined.

Xiao urged the spell, "It's a good man, how can you not make meritorious contributions!" Please give your majesty a tiger talisman and take me to the battlefield to protect my family and defend the country!"

"Father, the emperor, the son is willing to go!" the prince already knelt down. The moment he finished speaking, he felt that he was impulsive, and he seemed to be in a trance just now. But after the trance, he didn't regret it, because his blood was really boiling just now.

Xiao Wu was a little regretful, there was such a stunned and hot-blooded young man in this court, and the others were all old foxes, it was too difficult to influence!

The emperor's eyes narrowed, as if shooting out a murderous cold light, he glanced at the crown prince, and then looked at Xiao Wu fixedly. The corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and the hand holding the tiger talisman trembled a little.

The ministers were conflicted at this time, if the emperor agreed to bring the students and young generals with him, then it would be best for the prince to follow. But if the emperor refused, it would be better. I am afraid that the prince will be left behind, and the minister's heir will be taken to the front.

Above the court, the falling needles can be heard.
