Chapter 2745: The Gui scroll follows the dragon? (1)

Chapter 2745 Gui Zi Juan Conglong? (1)

While He Renlong was having a secret discussion with Hou Chengzu, Mao Chenglu also quietly received Liu Xingzuo who came from the sea at Shanhaiguan.

  Yuguan is very close to Jinzhou.

Taking the land route around the Western Liaoning Corridor is a little further, requiring Haizhou and Guangning, but if you come by boat, you only need to cross the Liaodong Bay.

"What does Mr. Jisheng mean?" Mao Chenglu and Liu Xingzuo walked on the city wall of Shanhaiguan, looking at a piece of stone in the distance, and then turned to Huanxi Ridge. "If this continues, the remaining troops in Liaodong and Dongjiang Towns may not be as strong as In the past, a town in Liaodong had enough troops, but where would the remaining brothers go? Go fishing in the sea or hunt in the old woods?"

"It's hard for Mr. Jisheng to accept it, but you also know his temperament. He doesn't like to talk too much. When Lao Wu and I complained, he just listened and remained silent. But Mr. Jisheng wants to listen to what the old commander says. ." Liu Xingzuo muttered.

 Lao Shuai refers to Mao Wenlong. He is not too old, just fifty, but among the officers and soldiers of Liaodong and Dongjiang Towns, Mao Wenlong is highly regarded.

"Listen? It's useless to just listen. You have to take action now." Mao Chenglu smacked his lips and walked forward with his hands behind his back, "These civil servants in the court are so ungrateful that they didn't even listen to Xiao Feng's words, and even treated Xiao Feng's words I'm so angry that I can't bear to fall ill. What are we going to do, rebel? If even Xiao Feng, the chief minister, can't protect us, who can we rely on?"

"I heard that Xiao Feng, Chief Assistant, proposed to deploy troops from several towns to attack Mongolia, and then talk about disarmament after defeating Mongolia. The people in the DPRK and the Central Government did not agree. They would rather not attack Mongolia but disarmament first. Probably because they felt that we were a threat to them. It’s probably a bigger threat than Mongolia.”

This view is probably the unanimous view among all the warriors now. The imperial court is more afraid of warriors than Mongolia. This is simply unacceptable to the warriors. They would rather disarm than use these soldiers to attack Mongolia. Do they think that the Mongolian cavalry would be better than attacking Mongolia? Is the border army better?

"Perhaps we should do something to let these literati know that we warriors can not only fight, but also..."

Mao Chenglu did not say the word "change the sky", but Liu Xingzuo was more courageous and said carelessly: "Chenglu, is it true that the commander-in-chief just did the opposite and supported Xiao Feng as the emperor?"

"Don't talk nonsense. My father never said it, but Sanshang Jiguan and Geng Zhongming both have this idea. We younger generations can't guess what my father is thinking. Xue Li and Ji Mao came to my place twice, and they both I am eager to try..." Although Mao Chenglu said not to talk nonsense, there was no taboo in his words.

Shang Xueli and Geng Jimao were his trusted brothers. Their fathers, Shang Jiguan and Geng Zhongming, were also his father's right-hand men. It turned out that besides Chen Jisheng, Chen Liangce, Shang Jiguan and Geng Zhongming were the most trusted.

In a sense, it was more appropriate for Shang Jiguan and Geng Zhongming to express the father's attitude. Shang Xueli and Geng Jimao should also know the meaning.

When Liu Xingzuo heard what Mao Chenglu said, he couldn't understand what he meant. His eyes flashed with wonder, "Hey, Chenglu, let's do it. I'll pull Lao Wu (Liu Xingzhi) up, and you'll pull Xue Li and Ji Mao too." Come on, let’s come directly from Guangning to enter the customs. From Jizhen, since He Shixian doesn’t care about anything, we will just go to Jingqinwang,..."

"You **** king, which king are you diligent for?" Mao Chenglu laughed and scolded, "Xiao Feng's chief assistant is just the chief assistant, and I don't know his intentions. However, Huang Degong and Zuo Liangyu are also Xiao Feng's chief assistants. I guess they The two of them also have this idea, but they are very close to each other, but not close to me. I don't bother to brush them off. They are both deputy commanders. They have a close relationship with Xiao Feng, and our family is not bad either. ,..."   "Then Huang Degong and Zuo Liangyu know Xiao Feng's chief minister's intentions? Don't act so recklessly, but we hate Xiao Feng's chief minister's intentions. Isn't it self-defeating?" Liu Xingzuo is rough and arrogant with a bit of delicacy and careful thinking. .

"Haha, I'm afraid no one knows Xiao Feng's thoughts, but will he be left alone at that time? Then Zhao and Song Dynasty, didn't they just come with such yellow robes? How can we warriors manage so many things? We just focus on doing it. We are doing it for everyone, and also for the sake of Mr. Feng. We can’t let a bunch of rotten scholars tie up Mr. Feng’s hands and feet, unable to do anything. We also hope that Mr. Feng can lead us to conquer Mongolia. After defeating it, we can go to Yarkand to the west for horse riding, and to the south to wash our feet in Jiaozhi. We can’t go to Nanyang, but we can always go to Yarkand and Jiaozhi, the hometown of the Han and Tang Dynasties, right? Or we can simply take North Korea as well. I think That’s fine, it saves those people from having to deal with people across the Yalu River all the time.”

Mao Chenglu stood still, placing one hand on the crenellation of the city wall, looking southward, "I'm thinking about this. Many people in the army have this idea, just wait for the opportunity."

"That's Liu Dongyang and Liu Baichuan, Cao Wenzhao and He Renlong, and even the Huang Degong and Zuo Liangyu you mentioned, and the brothers You Shigong? What if they rob you first? ?" Liu Xingzuo's thoughts became more and more intense, "If this power from the dragon falls into the hands of others, we brothers will suffer a big loss."

"It's not that simple. Now I'm still worried that if Xiao Feng, the first assistant, insists on not accepting it, this matter will be a bit embarrassing, so my father and the others don't say anything. I even suspect that He Shixian is pretending to be deaf and mute, and You Shigong is even more so. Hiding away from people is just letting the people below make a fuss. It’s really getting out of hand. If they show up again..."

Mao Chenglu rubbed his chin, "But if you look at me and I look at you, there must be one person who stands in front of you and makes the first move."

Liu Xingzuo's heart moved, he glanced at Mao Chenglu, and said tentatively: "Chenglu, what do you think we should come first?"

"How many of us are there?" Mao Chenglu was moved but a little worried, "Just you and me, and Lao Wu?"

"Invite Xuelia and Jimao too, so that Liaodong, Dongjiang and Jizhen are all there. We don't ask for more people, just for a loud voice. If Zuo Liangyu and Huang Degong will also move, I guess Denglai Herenlong will also If they can't run away, how can Shanxi Liu Dongyang and Jiangbei Liu Baichuan still hold back? If we fall behind, our fuss will be pointless."

Mao Chenglu believed this deeply.

Since you want to follow the dragon, you have to jump in front. The older generation cannot show up due to various considerations, but people of my own generation don't have so many scruples. In the worst case, being relegated will not be a death penalty.

If we really want to hold people accountable, the older generation will still be responsible.

Besides, can Chief Assistant Xiao Feng just watch his group of people who stood up for him suffer misfortune?
