In Mozhou City, the Huben New Army camp is located.

On the siege side, conflicts broke out among the generals under Jin Wang Chen Huaian. At the same time, the new Huben army guarding Mozhou City also encountered new conflicts and problems after solving the problem of food and wages.

Prime Minister Qin Ruhui, the actual person in power of the Daxin Imperial Court, ordered the new Minister of War, Huang Silang, to rush to Mozhou overnight to supervise the war on behalf of the imperial court.

At this moment, Huang Silang, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, had "occupied the magpie's nest" and took the position of chief of the Chinese army's tent that originally belonged to Wu Sanjia, the chief military officer of the Daxin imperial court and the mighty general.

Huang Silang tasted the fine West Lake Longjing and asked slowly: "General Wu, when will the army come out of the city to quell the Longcheng rebels?"

Go out of the city and put down the rebellion?

These two words immediately made Wu Sanjia and his deputy Zhao Kui feel like they were struck by lightning, their heads exploded with a buzz, and their bodies tensed up unconsciously.

Zhao Kui replied tentatively: "Master Huang, do you mean to let the new Huben army stationed in Mozhou City take the initiative to go out of the city to fight the Longcheng rebels?"

"if not?"

Huang Silang glanced at Zhao Kui and said angrily: "General Zhao, as far as I know, the Dragon City rebels besieging the city only have 350,000 troops;"

"There are 250,000 tiger and new troops in Mozhou City. Shouldn't we take the initiative to go out of the city and fight to the death with the Longcheng rebels?"

Having said this, Huang Silang turned his attention to Wu Sanjia, the leader of Huben's new army, and continued in an aggressive tone: "General Wu, the eight million taels of salary from the imperial court have long been allocated to your Huben army;"

"At the beginning, you, General Wu, swore to the Prime Minister of Qin and to the current Holy Emperor that as soon as the salary arrives, you will immediately launch the Northern Expedition!"

"Why, now that you have the money, have you forgotten your original promise of the Northern Expedition?"

"Master Huang, of course I dare not forget the promise of the Northern Expedition to suppress the rebellion and regain the lost territory!"

Wu Sanjia said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "But in the Northern Expedition to counter the rebellion, we must also pay attention to strategy and timing, rather than running rampant like a headless fly;"

"Right now, 350,000 Longcheng rebels have gathered outside Mozhou City, and the leader is Chen Huaian, a traitor and traitor. If he rashly leads the army out of the city to fight, he may fall into Chen Huaian's scheme."

snort!

Huang Silang, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, said with a smile: "General Wu, please tell me when the new Huben army in Mozhou City can leave the city for the northern expedition to quell the rebellion?"

"I would like to give an explanation to Prime Minister Qin and His Majesty!"

Wu Sanjia still looked like he was neither humble nor overbearing, and replied in a neutral tone: "Master Huang, leading troops to fight is no longer a piece of cake. When the time comes, I will lead the troops to the Northern Expedition to put down the rebellion!"

"Master Huang, if there is nothing else, I will leave first!"

After saying that, Wu Sanjia turned around and left the Chinese army's tent regardless of Huang Silang's reaction.

Upon seeing this, deputy general Zhao Kui got up and left without saying a word.

Only one person, Huang Silang, the Minister of War, was left in the tent, beating his hands and feet in anger, shouting: "Lawless, these arrogant and powerful generals are simply lawless;"

"Come here, I will serve you with pen and ink. I want to prepare a memorial to the Prime Minister of Qin and the current Holy One!"

"Yes, sir!"

...

As soon as Wu Sanjia left, deputy general Zhao Kui followed him with his back legs.

After approaching Wu Sanjia, he lowered his voice and said: "General, this Huang Silang really used a chicken feather as a command arrow. He actually dared to command the general to do things and teach the general to lead troops in war;"

snort!

Zhao Kui snorted coldly and continued: "Who in the Daxin Court doesn't know that this Huang Silang is a flatterer. By flattering the Prime Minister of Qin, he served tea and water all the way from the Ministry of War to the Ministry of War. The position of the minister;"

"Don't you think it would be nice for Huang Silang to be a mascot for the position of Minister of the Ministry of War?"

"Now that the war is about to begin, you still have to jump out to show your presence. It's simply disgusting!"

"General Zhao, please stop saying a few words!"

Wu Sanjia was open-minded, waved his hand and said: "This Prime Minister Qin, after all, spent eight million taels of real money on our new Huben army;"

"Naturally, we also want to gain some political capital from our new Tiger Army in a short period of time."

As he spoke, Wu Sanjia raised his finger and pointed at the Mozhou City wall and said, "See, the 350,000 Longcheng rebels outside this wall are the best bargaining chip for Prime Minister Qin to gain political capital in the court. ;"

"If our new Huben army can behead the rebellious minister and traitor Chen Huaian again, and go all the way to the north to regain the lost territory, then Qin Ruhui's position as the Supreme Emperor will really be secure!"

Forehead......

The remarks made by General Wu Sanjia immediately made Zhao Kui, the deputy general, full of surprise and disbelief.

In his impression, the general always regarded Prime Minister Qin as his lord, and even when Prime Minister Qin defaulted on food and salary for Huben's new army, he still never complained against him.

What he said today overturned Zhao Kui's cognition.

hehe!

Wu Sanjia suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly, looked at Lieutenant General Zhao Kui and said, "Why, do you think this general has changed and dares to say such treasonous words?"

Um!

Zhao Kui nodded honestly.

Wu Sanjia said: "Previously, this general has been treating Qin Ruhui in vain, just to get the pay, pensions and military rewards that the soldiers of the Huben Army under his command deserve!"

"Now that I, the general, have enough pay, silver and food to support the 300,000 soldiers of the new Huben Army for half a year, why bother to look at Qin Ruhui's face again?"

"In the new imperial court, who knows about the treacherous prime minister Qin Ruhui's act of stealing the country by deceiving the superiors and concealing it from the subordinates?"

"Everyone will punish these unfaithful and unfilial people. How can I, the general, collude with them and join in the evil deeds?"

With that said, Wu Sanjia patted the deputy general Zhao Kui on the shoulder, looked at him with a serious face, and said solemnly: "General Zhao, now that things have happened, we have arrived, and it is time to replace the 300,000 Huben soldiers under his command. It’s time to consider where to go!”

Upon hearing what Wu Sanjia said, Lieutenant General Zhao Kui suddenly felt his blood surge and he was extremely excited.

He even couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Then, he immediately bowed his hands to Wu Sanjia and said, "General, I, Zhao Kui, am only able to get to where I am today because of the support of the general."

"In the future, no matter what the general chooses, I, Zhao Kui, will definitely accompany me through life and death, through fire and water, without hesitation!"

At this moment, Wu Sanjia's rough cheeks finally revealed his long-hidden ambition and desire.

Living in troubled times and holding a large number of troops, how could he always be controlled by others?

Qin Ruhui is worthy of being the "Great Emperor", and so is Wu Sanjia!
