The shuai tent in the north of Zhongzhou was depressed, the book case collapsed to the ground, the tea cup was broken and the porcelain was scattered, the generals bowed their heads and were silent, Shi Zhen looked at the many generals in the big tent angrily, and walked around anxiously, and a moment a military doctor hurriedly walked in, Shi Zhen asked urgently: "How is General Yu's injury?" The military doctor lowered his head and clasped his fists with both hands, and said: "Yu Dashuai, General Yu is too injured and can't be rescued, although he has temporarily saved his life, but whether he can survive it, his subordinates dare not guarantee it!" Shi Zhen sat down, waved his hand to let the military doctor leave, and said: "I can still stand in this big camp today, it is all the work of General Yu, without General Yu's sworn to block the main force of Beiyuan, and now I don't know how much is left of the northern defense line!" Suddenly Shi Zhen shouted violently: "Where is Shi Xiong?" Shi Xiong is a young hero, at a young age, he followed his uncle Shi Zhen to fight in the south and the north, and he has made many military exploits, and he is deeply valued by Shi Zhen.

A general replied: "The young general knows that he is guilty, binds his arms, kneels outside the marshal's tent, and waits for the marshal to fall!" Shi Zhen's eyes flashed with a touch of unbearability, and shouted: "Shi Xiong did not listen to the general's orders, went out of the city without authorization, pursued and met the enemy, delayed the rescue opportunity, and almost let Beiyuan break through the defense line, making a big mistake, fortunately the general resisted desperately, so that the northern defense line was not broken! Now that the life and death of General Yu are uncertain, although Shi Xiong has military exploits, he cannot afford it, so he collected his weapons, escorted him to the front of the army, and beheaded him!" Many generals knelt down to intercede for Shi Xiong, and said: " Please think twice about it!" A general Ling clasped his fists and admonished: "Marshal, the major general disobeys the military order, and also wants to completely solve the hidden dangers of Nanzhou, once and for all, to avoid the suffering of the soldiers from traveling, Nanzhou disregards the people in his own city, frequently harasses our northern border, our army has repeatedly mobilized support, and the labor army is weak! Please also ask the commander to keep the young general's life!" Shi Zhen shouted: "You can know that the northern defense line is the work of Your Majesty and the military department for a long time, and the deployment of various departments is of great significance, and Your Majesty has more than once explicitly forbade us not to go out of the city to face the battle!" A general replied: "But Nanzhou disregards the life and death of the people, repeatedly attacks my northern border to release the line, rushing to rescue is never a long-term plan, it is better to give an order from the marshal, the last general is willing to lead a large army to attack Nanzhou, hide from their city, there is no place to live, these Nanzhou thieves can no longer threaten my northern border!" Shi Zhen sighed and said: "Do you think that this commander does not want to kill those thieves in Nanzhou once and for all? Capture the border city of Nanzhou, the defense line is elongated, the grain and grass are transported, and the troops are scattered, these are all problems, with the mobility ability of the Beiyuan cavalry, the grain and grass are easy to attack, increase the escort of grain and grass soldiers, divide the troops everywhere, and the lack of troops is simply difficult to fight against the fast-moving Beiyuan cavalry, it seems that the breakthrough of the border city of Nanzhou is a method once and for all, but it is a stupid move to dig a grave and bury the northern defense line, and a few broken cities will completely drag down the northern defense line! Today's plan is only to do everything possible to hold the northern defense line and buy time for Your Majesty, as long as Your Majesty approaches Nanzhou City, the defenders of Nanzhou in the north will be too busy to take care of themselves, as long as they keep it, the treasury of Beiyuan is insufficient, Nanzhou is fighting one after another, there is a shortage of food and grass, and there is a lack of materials, and the army of Beiyuan cannot plunder, and sooner or later it will not be able to support it, and it will retreat by itself!"

A veteran general said: "The young general is in the army, it is the yearning of many sons and daughters in the army, the young general is the hope in their hearts, although the young general is the relative of the marshal, but from the soldiers all the way to kill the enemy and plunder the land, establish meritorious deeds, the last general and so on are all in the eyes, the marshal killed the young general so easily, it will hurt the morale of the army, it is better to temporarily detain the young general, waiting for His Majesty to fall!" Shi Zhen hesitated for a moment, and said: "Okay, then take what the old general said! Temporarily put Shi Xiong in prison and imprisoned! This marshal wrote to His Majesty and asked His Majesty to send it!" At this time, a high-pitched and loud voice outside: "General Yu was injured because of me, please be gracious and let me serve General Yu until General Yu wakes up!" The veteran general in the tent continued: "The young general knows his mistake, and he is willing to serve General Yu to atone for his sins, which shows that his heart is sincere, even if His Majesty wants to behead the young general, he should give the young general a chance to alleviate his sins and redeem his conscience!" All the generals echoed, and Shi Zhen could only agree.

However, as a criminal general, there is no shortage of torture tools and leg shackles. This Shi Xiong is also a sincere person, and he believes that Yu Ze is injured for himself, regards himself as a servant, and is bound to take care of Yu Ze personally.

Shi Xiong's move is deeply respected by the officers and soldiers in the army, and the officers and men in the army have not despised him because of Shi Xiong's mistakes, and in the past battlefield to kill the enemy, Shi Xiong's bravery has been praised by many soldiers.

。 The Nine Princes sat in Dusk City, and Tang Feng led the camp in the north of the town to continue to march towards Nanzhou. Receiving Shizhen's recital, the Ninth Prince frowned slightly, and said, "Father-in-law Su, pass on the imperial doctor in the palace, carry the best medicinal materials in the palace, and rush to the north to cure Yu Ze no matter what!" Father-in-law Su nodded slightly and said, "Yes!" Father-in-law Su was just about to leave, and Ninth Prince said again: "Send a few imperial generals to escort them to the north!" Father-in-law Su nodded.

The Ninth Prince looked at Shi Zhen's twists and turns, and whispered: "Shi Xiong, Shi Zhen, Shi Zhen, if you hand over this problem to me, you won't be afraid that I will kill your own nephew!" Several generals in the northern camp discussed Shi Xiong's affairs, and one of the generals asked: "Old general, you leave this matter to Your Majesty to decide, Your Majesty is ......" The general looked around, and saw that there was no one, and continued to whisper: "Your Majesty is a devil who kills people without blinking, and there are countless people from the Ji family who have died in the hands of Your Majesty, isn't the young general dangerous?" The old general smiled: " Although Your Majesty is moody, ruthless and brutal, the person your Majesty kills, whether it is a prince or a general, or a giant civilian, which one is not the one who should be killed! Your Majesty is wise, how can you easily kill a general like a young general! And when the time comes, if you really want to kill a major general, we can write a joint letter, presumably Your Majesty will not dare to disobey us at this time, although it touches the anger, but there is no way to do it!" A few days later, under the protection of the imperial general, the imperial doctor in the palace rushed to the north, with the best medicinal materials in the palace, did not dare to stop, rushed to Yu Ze's camp tent, and diagnosed and treated Yu Ze's pulse, Shi Xiong stayed not far away, silently praying that Yu Ze could wake up.

Several old imperial doctors investigated Yu Ze's injury, and after a few discussions, the silver needle awakened vitality, ginseng and other nutritional bloodlines, and then slowly conditioned with decoction, and recuperated for three days in a row, Yu Ze's face appeared a little ruddy, Shi Xiong looked at Yu Ze who had regained his vitality, and was almost burned by the medicine jar in his hand, and the imperial doctor who diagnosed and treated him finally breathed a sigh of relief, there was an imperial order, and Yu Ze was a general in the army, they were afraid that there would be a trace of deficiency and lose their old life.

Another day later, Yu Ze woke up, Shi Zhen was overjoyed, and led all the generals to thank Yu Ze for keeping the northern defense line, Yu Ze thought that he was taking the blame off the credit, and learned that Shi Xiong had taken care of himself since he was in a coma, and thanked Shi Zhen again and again, and pleaded with Shi Zhen for Shi Xiong, not letting Shi Xiong take care of himself, but Shi Xiong is also a stubborn character, and he has to take care of Yu Ze until he recovers before he is willing to leave, and Yu Ze has no choice but to be taken care of by Shi Xiong.
