Chapter 5883: The Commander Seal Again
In the seventh year of the Yuan Dynasty, Wei Nao was not so interested compared to previous years.
On the second day of the New Year, Feng Shijian, Zhu Feiling, Chen Lifeng and Su Qunying, who had just become the Minister of War not long ago, gathered in Wei Nao's study to discuss matters.
Nowadays, several people are also the people Wei Nao trust the most, and Su Qunying is also the top scorer in Wei Nao's first time in the imperial examination after becoming the King of Wei. After seven years of training, he successfully reached a high position.
What the few people are discussing now is naturally the matter of Jiang Heng’s defeat not long ago. At the first court meeting in the New Year, there were endless debates and Wei Nao could not take any attention, so the discussion is now continuing.
Chen Lifeng did not answer because he did not understand military affairs. Su Qunying and Feng Shijian agreed to continue to retain Jiang Heng in this matter, but he could not send any noble children to the army at will, because according to the war report, it was because of the defeat of several noble children, and Su Qunying even expected that His Majesty would kill these noble children.
But after he finished speaking, Wei Nao was a little hesitant, and it would be fine if the others were not. But Wang Hu was the younger brother of his beloved concubine, and the younger brother of a mother. If he killed someone, wouldn’t it hurt people’s hearts?
So he looked at Zhu Feiling and asked, "Zhao Zhu, you didn't express your opinion in the court before. If you want to say that you can fight well, you have the most say now."
"Your Majesty, let Ning Lin go back. Jiang Heng is good at water wars, jungle wars, and the northwest is ice and snowy. He is indeed inadequate in many places. He also sent noble children to the army back then, but Ning Lin could distinguish between the advantages and disadvantages. The few who made great contributions this time are also noble children. And now there is a large army to rush to help, Ning Lin is the one who trains troops. If he goes, it is the most suitable one."
"Zhu Xiang, there is something you may not know." Feng Shijian spoke at this time.
"I don't know what news about Eunuch Feng?" Zhu Feiling really had no good feelings for being close to this inner relationship. In fact, the officials led by him and the forces led by Feng Shijian were fighting very well. Although they were both from Wei Nao, the two of them had a vague sense of tit-for-tat.
"Ninglin trained a new army, but it was only a year since the army was reported. Just thinking that Ning Lin's soldiers were like this, I dare to ask Zhu Xiang how Ning Lin joined the army."
"So that's it. Isn't this the matter caused by you? The original 100,000 army's salary increased by 200,000 troops, but only 20% was allocated. When the Ministry of Revenue and I were compiling the salary, although we couldn't do it completely according to the previous 100,000 troops, we also added 70% more. There were still 50% more, and how could we train troops without the salary? Ning Lin himself, and even Prince Lin, paid out of his own pocket."
"Zhao Xiang, does this mean that they are hiding evil intentions?" Feng Shijian said unrestrainedly in this matter.
When Zhu Feiling heard this, his face suddenly darkened and he smiled, "Holding evil intentions? The inner face is really bold. What do you think if this is said to be heard? Your Majesty, this is the letter sent by the ancestor from the East Capital that the old minister just received. It is not only Lin Shuai who generously donated money. The ancestors also had to pay all the money. All things, the ancestors knew. Your Majesty, you knew half a year ago, so no wonder Ning Lin. Instead, the army is about to set off. How much money can you pay for the inner minister? If Your Majesty feels that Ning Lin is not at ease to lead the troops, then there are only two choices at the moment. However, it is probably impossible to let Prince Lin come out of the mountain, and only the old minister will put on the battlefield again."
"No, Zhu Xiang, don't be angry, Feng Shijian, Zhu Xiang has spoken. You must pay the money for the army to set off, otherwise you should not be the inner minister."
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I'll make a fortune and put the money on my own." Feng Shijian immediately knelt down and swore.
Zhu Feiling looked at Feng Shijian and did sneer in his heart. It would be strange if this person really wanted to sell his fault. He had no son, but he had accepted a few so-called godsons, and he slandered Lin Haoming. But when he accepted his godson, he liked others the most. Compared with his godson, Lin Haoming and Ning Lin, but Wei Nao trusted him. Who made Wei Nao grow up with this eunuch since childhood, and he could only wait for his grandson to grow up and be the first to destroy this eunuch after he ascended the throne.
Because Zhu Feiling's anger was a result, Lin Haoming received the order to mobilize troops soon, but the 200,000 troops would not be transferred all, and only half of them were mobilized to follow Lin Haoming on the road.
Lin Haoming set out in spring and waited until summer began to return to the northwest of Qingguo, which had been separated for a year and a half.
When he handed over with Jiang Heng, the famous coach who was still ambitious when he met last time, was now gray-haired, as if he had suddenly become more than ten years old.
Jiang Heng and Ning Lin had a drink here, and also told them some of their hardships, and then followed them with more than a hundred people.
Because of Jiang Heng's previous defeat, even if Ning Lin fights slowly, it is a good thing as long as he can keep winning.
At the end of the summer of the seventh year of the Yuan Dynasty, after Ning Lin regained the commander seal, the army changed its previous decline and relied on the warships left by Jiang Heng in Bailian River to enter Fengshui County by water battle.
Fengshui County was originally a rare place where lakes and rivers gathered here. Although it was not as good as Chu, it was already called Fengshui here. Water wars had no experience for Dai State. So Ninglin defeated the Dai State's army and quickly recovered most of Fengshui County.
Two people, two outcomes. In this situation, no one can say anything. However, after Ning Lin launched another attack in autumn, the army blocked Maoling County again. But even so, no one discussed what Ning Lin was like, just talking about Maoling County, which was easy to defend but difficult to attack. It was really a place that was occupied by Dai Guo that year.
In order to take down Maoling County in one fell swoop, Wei Nao had to agree to send another 100,000 troops to the northwest after Ning Lin repeatedly urged him.
In early summer of the following year, the army of 100,000 yellow-faced and thin skinny again met with the previous high morale of 100,000 new troops. Both sides couldn't help but be surprised, and naturally they couldn't help but start to communicate with each other.
Following Ning Shuai's 100,000 people, all of them achieved military achievements, while the 100,000 people who stayed lived a miserable life. Everyone was thinner than before. Not only did the salary decrease, but the food was deducted on weekdays. Not to mention daily exercise, in the end, even if you run two laps a day, you would feel hungry.
In comparison, both sides couldn't help but feel that it was better to follow Ning Shuai.
