"What does Zhao Kuangyin want to do?" Guo Shao asked again after Zuo You came in.
The two were silent for a while. Guo Shao thinks: Zhao Kuangyin's hard power is definitely the strongest in the entire Zhou Dynasty! Perhaps there are still some people in the DPRK who have not yet figured out the situation, thinking that Zhao Kuangyin's qualifications and status are not very high; but Guo Shao will not be confused by this superficial phenomenon.
In terms of qualifications, Fu Yanqing, Wang Zhang, Hebei, and the Jiedu ambassadors of other towns in the northwest dare to discuss qualifications. They have gone through several dynasties. But now under the overwhelming advantage of the Forbidden Army, the commanders are no longer the kind of warlords in the late Tang Dynasty, and it is useless not to have the seniority of the center to the tortoise level. Zhang Yongde, the most senior general in the Forbidden Army, did not dare to say his qualifications. Zhang Yongde also only started a few years ago, not much earlier than Zhao Kuangyin. At the beginning, he was promoted by Taizu Guowei.
The Zhou dynasty entered Tokyo with troops from Guo Wei, and the entire dynasty lasted only seven years. It has been less than four years since Chai Rong ascended the throne. The oldest senior in Chai Rong's dynasty was the first generals who started in the Battle of Gaoping. Zhao Kuangyin, Guo Shao and others were the real generals that Chai Rong relied on. The remaining Taizu promoted, if they did not stand in the right position in the battle of Gaoping, or were killed (after the battle of Gaoping, more than a hundred generals were killed), or were sent to Jiezhen.
Chai Rong has great prestige in the army, and the Forbidden Army under his command is relatively cohesive. The key is that the Forbidden Army eliminates those who support him. The distinction during the Gaoping War is the top priority. (The Battle of Gaoping is a representative event of Chai Rong’s domineering performance. Externally and internally, it is a rapid, effective and decisive approach like a violent wind rolling leaves!)
It doesn't make much sense to talk about the position. Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin are the top ranks among the military commanders. Li Zhongjin didn't say anything. After the Battle of Huainan, he had been in Yangzhou and transferred to Hedong on the eve of the Northern Expedition. So far, Xiang Xun and Xiang Xun have been there to guard against Khitan, and they have not returned to the town. Zhang Yongde’s strength is not as good as Zhao Kuangyin, the commander in front of the palace, because...
The cavalry is almost Zhao Kuangyin's direct line!
The two major systems of the Zhou Dynasty Forbidden Forces, the four main forces, and the squads totaling about 140,000. The Forbidden Army is the most elite force in the entire country, and the cavalry is the most elite of the Forbidden Army. The two main forces in the front of the palace, the crane control army has always been worrying, and the cavalry is the one who really supports the position of the front of the palace.
Of course, if you want to obey the rules and military laws obediently, Zhao Kuangyin is really nothing. Anyone from Zhang Yongde and the Privy Council can veto his actions. But if everyone doesn't follow the rules, Zhao Kuangyin's control and prestige advantage in the cavalry is obvious.
Guo Shao also believes that if it were not for life and death, the future Queen's regime would specifically stare at Zhao Kuangyin; Zhao Kuangyin's risk of direct mutiny is too great, the winning rate may be less than 50%, he is definitely not willing to do it; and It is wise to play the game first and then gradually gain momentum.
But now, everything is different.
......Guo Shao also has 20,000 people under his hand, including many generals, big and small, but he can only conspire here with Zuo You. Such things are too dangerous to speak out. The house in this hall is lonely and has thick walls, so Guo Shao chose to discuss it here. He has already deployed several confidantes nearby to prevent ordinary people from approaching.
Guo Shao pondered for a long time, and finally said: "I want to change to Zhao Kuangyin, and I will give him a try at this juncture."
Zuo You also agreed with his statement: "There is still a chance to fight, and you will lose if you don't fight."
"Yes, I missed the chaotic situation. Once the old and new powers are replaced, Zhao Kuangyin will not be able to move." Guo Shao said, "When the queen is in power, Zhao Kuangyin will first be guarded, weakened, and purged. The military and political power of the court is the same as he is. No, even if you don’t have the power to deploy troops and garrison, what are you still playing?"
Guo Shao groaned: "If he doesn't want to run away with power, he will have to do it with a real knife and a real gun. Anyway, he will do it anyway, and wait until he is restrained everywhere in the future. Why not take advantage of this opportunity?"
If it’s another mediocre person who doesn’t have the courage to give it a go, it’s like a pig is about to be killed, and it doesn’t dare to bite, so it can only wait tremblingly to die; but because the opponent is Zhao Kuangyin, Guo Shao believes him Will make the wisest choice! The most courageous and courageous choice!
The most risky method is sometimes the least risky and most effective method.
Zuo You asked the question again: "The lord thinks, what is Zhao Kuangyin's strategy and what does he want to do?"
"He wants a mutiny!" Guo Shao said directly.
The two immediately looked at each other, leaving only the wind roaring outside, making the trees rustle.
Guo Shao said solemnly: "I tried to guess his intentions and imagined what Zhao Kuangyin would do is the wisest choice... I want to find clues to his strategy.
If I guessed correctly. Zhao Kuangyin believes that I am the biggest and most thorough rebel, because like him, if I don’t resist, I will die without a place to bury him. I have no choice! Zhao Kuangyin’s current goal is to transfer me, the most stubborn rebel, away from the capital, so that the subordinates of the tiger and the Jiefang army will have no heads, or there will be no time for a coordinated response; then, he will make up a name such as Fengzhao Qingjun. , With the confidant as the core, without too many people, engulf the cavalry battalions to grow stronger and intimidate the other people in the capital... The ultimate goal is to capture the Jinxiang Hall with some elites and control the two key points of the Privy Council Political Affairs Hall, especially the Jinxiang Hall. . Then force the center to clean up the mess. "
Guo Shao said coldly: "If I were Zhao Kuangyin, in the current situation, I would do this."
Zuo You's face has become bloodless.
Guo Shao said again: "The timing is very important. Once the cavalry is dispatched, no one except the emperor has the prestige to repel them... Zhang Yongde? Zhang Yongde does not need to take such a big risk to follow Zhao Kuangyin desperately, and may be in front of the palace. Detained. The Secret Envoy? Wang Pu's strategy and wisdom are okay, but no one is reasonable and the net is broken. What can he do? Who in the army knew him? After the Gaoping War, Wang Pu was responsible for writing articles in the house. The prime ministers and civil servants? It's even more a joke. Wufu has all picked up swords and guns. It's strange to listen to civil servants. Only the emperor can contain the situation!
So Zhao Kuangyin must choose the right time. It should not be too early. The emperor should be bedridden. It’s best to just be unconscious or unable to speak, but if the news is not sent directly from the palace, the timing is not good... Now bedridden can’t speak loudly, or you can take a risk. .
It should not be too late. When the official family is dead, the people in the center must immediately follow the queen's orders. The queen will directly mobilize my troops and the garrison of troops that the squads can trust. Zhao Kuangyin has no chance...so we are in danger now. "
Guo Shao sighed: "Our most stable situation is of course that we are all in peace. What are we afraid of waiting for the queen to come to power? The chances of coming to us are even greater, but if this juncture is careless, many opportunities are useless. , Will be beaten to the end all at once."
Zuo You said: "What does the lord want?"
Guo Shao coldly said: "They are going to use force. We still have reason to say? We need to start deployment and prepare to use troops directly in Tokyo!" But seeing Zuo You's fear, Guo Shao said with ease, "Zuo You Sir, you can be prosperous and rich if you become a prime minister."
Left You speak.
Guo Shao caressed his back again: "When I was a teenager, Mr. Zuo was my assistant. Everyone knows it, and Zhao Kuangyin probably knows it. If we lose unfortunately, everyone can't escape." /
Zuo You raised his head and said sternly, "I want to vote for someone with great ambitions! I am afraid of death and do something, I might as well go home and hold my baby!"
"Okay!" Guo Shao smiled, "The words are rough but not rough. Do it!"
Zuo You hurriedly said: "What should I do if I leave Beijing to find pill?"
"What else can I do? As long as I can fool you, if it doesn't work, I will raise troops directly. Whoever goes out of Tokyo, who is the idiot!" Guo Shao whispered quietly.
At this moment, someone asked to see him again, and Huang Tiejiang, an old man from Guo Shao's Mansion, sent in the greeting. The two people in the room stopped talking in low voices, and the sound of rain and wind filled the room for a while.
Guo Shao took a look and said to Zuo You: "Zan Jurun, he came so quickly. I guess he didn't dare to neglect the imperial edict."
"Bring people in." Guo Shao said. Then he sat for a while before calling Zuo You out of the hall and greeted him at the door of the house. As a general of the Department of Guards, it is very polite and enthusiastic to greet the provincial envoy at the door of the house.
After a while, I saw a 30-year-old civil servant walking over with an umbrella, and under the steps he clasped his fists and bowed: "General Guo, don't come here without problems?"
Guo Shao could still laugh, and said with a smile on his face: "It's all right. The envoy Zan comes up to avoid the rain before speaking."
Zan Jurun walked to the eaves and took away the umbrella. Seeing a wooden barrel and some wet umbrellas in the wooden barrel, he put his wet umbrella inside. Guo Shao said: "It didn't take long for me to come back from Da Nei, but Zan Shijun arrived so soon."
Zan Jurun turned his head and sighed: "This is the imperial decree directly from the palace, and it is an urgent matter for the officials to find a pill. How dare you to delay? As soon as I received the imperial decree, I hurried to prepare the carts and horses; I have to ask first Ask General Guo when he plans to leave, so I can prepare for the expenses on the road and leave Beijing with General Guo."
"It's almost you (six o'clock in the afternoon) now?" Guo Shao pondered, "It must be too late for today, or... the day after tomorrow?"
Zan Jujun said: "Why not tomorrow?"
Guo Shao looked like he wanted to say something and stopped: "Something...oh, forget it. Anyway, we have to prepare, we have to pick some trustworthy followers, and we have to guard with soldiers and horses. Ambassador Zan, this matter The child is very important, and it may cause chaos in a hurry. Tomorrow one day to prepare, you have to go to the barracks to report to the army, and it will be very tight for one day."
"But...I'm afraid that others will say that we are procrastinating." Zan Juyun said, "It's better to leave tomorrow. There is no need to report to the selection of soldiers. At most one or two hundred people are up to the sky. We can never bring an army out of Beijing. How about tomorrow afternoon?"
Guo Shao pondered for a moment and reluctantly said: "Well, tomorrow morning I will pick people, hurry up, and leave in the afternoon. So I don't have to report according to the envoy."
"Okay." Zan Jurun said, then turned around, "It's raining, it's really untimely. It's a lot of inconvenience to drive on rainy days."
