Riding the Pheonix Chapter 457: Guarantee him
Zong Xu has no time to dwell on that issue.
Because Sutu is here.
Zongxu attacked halfway and struggled with the remaining troops of the Hu tribe led by Su Tu until they joined forces in Liangchuan.
The two sides started fighting.
The battle was fierce, and Zong Xu did not dare to let go.
No matter what the emperor thought, he hoped that this war could lay the foundation for the southern expedition in the future.
This is the dream of three generations of the Zong family and the legacy of Emperor Taizu.
Not only Zong Rui noticed the changes in Zong Xu, but Guo Xu also took a look at the clues.
But this old boy is a very thief. He knows that there is no benefit in going against Zong Xu in the Northwest Army. If he wants to take advantage, he just needs to take the credit honestly, so he doesn't give a shit.
This decisive battle lasted for two months, and it was late autumn before my eyes.
Perhaps Zong Xu was holding his breath too hard. Under his order, the Qi army attacked like crazy.
Su Tu didn't want to retreat even a step, but he couldn't control the other tribes, and was overwhelmed by the left and right wings first.
Once his defeat was revealed, he could only avoid its sharp edge if he didn't want to retreat.
——Knowing what kind of medicine Zong Xu took, it seemed as if he was desperate for his life.
He is a famous general of his generation, but he still has such a risk-taking style of play. Not to mention Su Tu now, Su Tu ten or eight years from now will not be able to handle it.
As soon as the Hu soldiers retreated, Liangchuan fell into the hands of the Qi army.
The Qi army celebrated grandly, and all the generals knew what this meant to Qi.
This is the greatest military victory against the Hu people after the founding of the country!
They are destined to leave their names in history.
At the celebration banquet, Guo Xu was in a great mood.
In this battle, Zong Xu, as the commander-in-chief, must be the first to succeed. But the second person under Zong Xu should be himself.
In the past half year, he and Zong Xu had already reached a tacit understanding.
He helped mediate the relationship between the Northwest Army and the imperial court, and Zong Xu gave him a share of the credit.
Oh, with such achievements and achievements, after returning to Beijing and spending a few more years of experience, I can think about the position of prime minister.
Speaking of which, Prime Minister Lu is in his seventies? In a few years, it’s time to retire, right?
Guo Xu laughed out loud as he thought about it.
"Master Guo." Zong Rui's voice interrupted his sweet dream.
Guo Xu smiled and cupped his hands: "Major General, congratulations!"
No matter who it is, congratulations are definitely on point today.
Zong Rui, however, was very perfunctory and said calmly: "My father has invited me."
Guo Xu thought about it, is he going to share the credit? Hahaha, good!
"Major General, please lead the way."
Guo Xu followed Zong Rui, and they entered the handsome tent one after the other.
There were three people sitting in the tent. In addition to Zong Xu, there were also his confidants Joining the Army and Yang Shu.
Zong Xu was staring at the map in a daze at the moment. He had clearly won a great victory, but there was no trace of joy on his face.
"General Zong?"
Hearing Guo Xu's voice, Zong Xu came back to his senses and smiled politely: "Master Guo."
Looking at his expression, Guo Xu suppressed his smile and said seriously: "I wonder what important matter General Zong has called me here for?"
Zong Xu kept his eyes on the map and did not take it back. At this time, he wiped his face and said with a bit of fatigue: "The general would like to discuss with Mr. Guo how to write this battle report."
Here we go, share the credit!
Guo Xu smiled again. He knew that Zong Xu's mood was not right, but it was normal for him to feel a little depressed after the battle. Like him, after three hundred rounds of fighting in Xianggui, he would not be able to straighten up the next day...
"What do you think, General Zong?" Guo Xu's tone was very gentle.
Zong Xu braced himself up and held on, saying: "This battle is difficult, so I will take credit for my generals. In my opinion, Young Master Yang should be the first to take credit for defeating the enemy today. If it weren't for him and Tie, The Yiwei divided their troops into two groups and used a double chain to break through the left and right wings. It will not be easy for us to capture Liangchuan."
As soon as these words came out, not only Guo Xu was stunned, but Yang Shu was also confused.
Zong Xu explained to him from the beginning that even if he died here, he would not have any military exploits. What's going on now? Zong Xu wants to share the battle merits with him?
Guo Xu thought he heard wrongly: "General Zong, what did you say?"
Zong Xu spoke very slowly, repeating word for word: "He should take the lead in defeating the enemy today."
"..." Guo Xu looked around and saw that there was no one else in the tent, so he simply asked directly, "General Zong, what do you mean?"
"Literal meaning." Zong Xu said indifferently, "In today's battle report, except for the general's leadership, Young Master Yang ranks first."
Guo Xu was furious and stood up angrily: "Zong Xu, are you going to burn the bridge by crossing the river? How did you promise me before? Now that you have won the decisive battle, you will throw me aside?"
He originally thought that if he was so angry, Zong Xu would be able to explain it nicely.
Unexpectedly, Zong Xu still responded with a cold voice: "Yes! I have made up my mind to give him the credit, what do you think?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zong Rui took a step forward with eager eyes, his hand already on the sword at his waist.
Guo Xu instantly understood that Zong Xu was serious.
What's wrong with this old boy? Didn't I already say that no one can give credit to Yang San? Is he crazy?
"Teacher..." Yang Shu looked confused.
He didn’t say anything at all. He didn’t understand what this was!
Guo Xu glanced at him and quickly made a calculation in his mind.
Yang San didn’t know, that was Zong Xu’s own consideration.
It's strange, Zong Xu is not the kind of rough guy who only knows how to fight. He made a good promise before, why did he suddenly change his mind? There must be a reason here.
He silently recited the words "Be able to bend and stretch" several times in his mind, and squeezed out a smile and said: "General Zong, you and I have worked together for more than half a year, and we have gone through life and death together. This friendship is no better than that of others. I know that you must have your reasons for doing this, and so do I. If you are not one of those ignorant people, can you tell me something?"
Guo Xu said it sincerely. As long as Zong Xu had no intention of killing people and silencing them, he should have responded.
Zong Xu did respond. He winked, Zong Rui clasped his fists, lifted the curtain and went out.
Then he heard Zong Rui's voice: "Go down, I'll guard you here."
Guo Xu had a bad premonition.
Is it such a big deal? You actually asked Zong Rui to guard it in person?
Amid Guo Xu's suspicion, Zong Xu slowly spoke: "There is something that Mr. Guo may not know. About three or four months ago, there were rebels in Chengzhou raising flags, claiming that the current throne was unfair and should be returned to the throne. Prince Sihuai. Later, rumors spread throughout the world that Prince Sihuai had not died out, and King Yongxi left a son who was fostered in the Bolinghou Mansion."
King Yongxi was the eldest grandson of the emperor back then.
The color on Guo Xu's face quickly faded.
He looked at Yang Shu, opened his mouth, but said nothing.
These days in the army, all his news channels are in Zong Xu's hands, but he missed such news.
It turns out that Yang San is not the current illegitimate son at all, but the son of King Yongxi and the grandson of the former crown prince?
This...
Guo Xu's mind was in terrible confusion. ~IndoMTL.com~ But he was the prime minister after all, so he calmed down after a while.
He said: "General Zong, are you doing this because you don't want Young Master Yang to live?"
"No." Zong Xu said coldly, "I want to protect him!"
Guo Xu was shocked: "General Zong!"
What does he want to do if he says this in person?
"So, Mr. Guo, what do you think?" Zong Xu asked sadly, his hand already on the sword.
