"Xiao Yuanting, a native of the capital, is also the candidate of the current examination." The scholar generously reported his identity first, and then went straight to the topic. "Although I am not from the origin of family education, I have read several military books in my spare time. Jirai was quite interested in military affairs, so I also carefully learned about the war between my Dayue and Guirong.

"This Northern Expedition is the worst defeat in the century in the founding of the Great Yue Kingdom. Even though there have been losses in the past, neither the damage nor the impact can be compared with this time. Therefore, I think the court will hold the court accountable this time, and the relevant generals and officials will be responsible. And when it comes to the biggest culprit of this defeat, it is naturally the heavy mountain of the governor of the Northern Frontier!

"As soon as the battle started, he underestimated the enemy and advanced forward. As the commander, he did not know the weather, and actually led a large army deep into the desert and was blocked by heavy snow, causing more than 100,000 troops to be trapped in a corner and besieged by the enemy. Even though he was the little credit for leading troops to defend until the reinforcements arrived, compared with the mistakes he made, this credit was not worth mentioning!" As he said that, he bowed slightly and walked off the stage.

As soon as the first person to go on stage, he really mobilized all the enthusiasm of everyone. After he came down, he followed someone to come on stage to talk about his views. However, his views were quite similar to Xiao Yuanting. At most, he emphasized more about a certain aspect. One of them really understood military affairs, but he pointed to the map and kept refuting the military misfortune of the heavy mountain, saying that if he advanced a little slow, he would not go deep behind the enemy, causing a dilemma.

But no matter how detailed they are, their views still cannot escape Xiao Yuanting's opinion, until another scholar named Yang Han came to the stage: "What you said just now is certainly reasonable, but in my opinion, it is still biased. You must have forgotten that there is a prerequisite for Governor Chen to send troops, that is, the court ordered him to take the initiative to attack, and be sure to defend the enemy outside the country's gates. If it were only this, Governor Chen had done quite well and had no mistakes. As for the ultimate loss of troops and generals, victory or defeat was common in military affairs, and he must not be blamed.

"What's more, when the first battle was won, Governor Chen took advantage of the situation and went north without making a mistake. However, there was an unexpected situation in the sky, so he helped Gui Rong. Therefore, in my opinion, even if Governor Chen was wrong, he was not the main criminal. The biggest crime should fall on Governor Yue Lin, Jiyou!"

"Brother Yang, I can't agree with what you said. Governor Yue is a great hero who has turned the tide this time. Why has he become a guilty person in your mouth? He is so distorted by black and white, just to attract attention just for the public is not a gentleman!" Xiao Yuanting immediately stood up and retorted.

Then, another person stood up: "What Brother Xiao said is reasonable. If Governor Yue had not arrived in time, I am afraid that my North Vietnamese army would really fall into a big fall on the grassland! What's more, everyone knew the situation at that time. Although he had delayed the rescue for a while, it was ultimately for the safety of Youzhou. The facts also proved that his concerns were completely correct, and he destroyed the Ghost Army and Horses under Youzhou City, thus turning the situation around..."

"You all know only one thing but not the other. Although Governor Yue was the last hero, in my opinion, he was also the culprit of our Northern Army being trapped in Luoxinghai for nearly a month. Because when Governor Chen sent troops to fight the Northern Expedition, he had agreed with Governor Yue to advance with each other as a supportive force.

"Everyone, think about it, if these two armies really advance, even if they encounter bad weather, even if the Guirong army takes advantage of the times, how could it be the opponent of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the border of our Great Vietnam? By then, it would be the top of Mount Tai, which would be enough to sweep the grassland and kill the enemy hundreds of miles without paying too much."

What he said was reasonable, which made those who opposed him speechless for a moment, and Yang Han's momentum became more and more powerful: "In addition, the dangers of Youzhou mentioned by everyone are actually divided into front and back. If it were not for the failure of the front line and the courageous spirit of Guirong, they would never dare to advance and kill Youzhou. After all, for a hundred years, Guirong has at most killed around Zhenbei Pass and has not dared to covet the Chongcheng of Youzhou.

"So, even though Governor Yue did make contributions, merit is merit, and fault is merit. Regarding the biggest sinner who failed to advance north this time, I think it is still the governor Yue Lin of Jiyou!"

His statement also won the recognition of many people present. After Yang Han stepped down, several more people came to the stage and began to list the mistakes that Yue Lin made. For a time, the two arguments were unwilling to give in, and it was difficult to distinguish between the two arguments.

In the fourth floor private room, the emperor listened to these young people exhilarating their words with a smile, and his eyes flashed several times: "Although they are all clichés, they are obviously from family education. They have worked hard under the guidance of their elders on weekdays."

"The emperor's brother really has a keen eye for talent. Xiao Yuanting and Yang Han, who just made these two views, are both regular visitors here. They also make profound comments on weekdays and have many fans."

"Well, you can give your words clearly and you will give them a rare young talent. But... the things you are talking about are not their real materials, most of them are just some cliches you hear from your home. I have heard too many people say similar words in the palace, and they are not outstanding enough." The emperor smiled and drank a sip of wine.

King Huai smiled helplessly, but he couldn't say anything. Those who served in the court were all talents in the world, and their knowledge was not comparable to those of young scholars? Therefore, even if you discuss some of the views of scholars from ancient and modern times in this restaurant, it is impossible to be unique and beyond the outstanding views of the court officials.

As far as he knows, there are only two kinds of judgments now, either they are too much more than Shen Chongshan, or they say that Yue Lin sent troops too late, which led to the siege of the front army... Of course, how many of these are caused by party struggles, it is hard to guess, a idle prince.

However, he also saw the disappointment of his elder brother, but if he didn't understand such things, it was naturally impossible to arrange someone to make the emperor happy.

At this moment, another person walked up to the podium below, but a scholar who looked in his twenties and was extremely young. He also bowed slightly to the point of bowing around: "I have seen you all in Li Ling, Jiangcheng County, Hengzhou Prefecture, Huaibei!"

"Hengzhou...Li Ling..." The emperor was slightly stunned when he heard this name, "This person is a bit familiar..." As he said that, he glanced at the old eunuch who had been standing beside him. The latter immediately understood and smiled: "Sage, you did ask me to check this person before, that is the jute donation..."

"Oh..." The emperor immediately remembered and looked at the young man below with interest: "I didn't expect that this small county people who gave me a difficult problem were so young. He has become an imperial examination student today?"

"Yes, he had passed the Huaibei Provincial Examination before, and it is said that he was quite appreciated by Zhang Hefeng." As an absolute confidant around the emperor, the old eunuch naturally had his own unique features. He usually didn't speak much, but as long as the emperor asked, he could always give extremely detailed answers.

The emperor nodded gently: "Let me hear what insights he can express."

Someone joked below: "Mr. Li, if you are just picking up someone, I advise you not to say too much. Everyone has made clear the merits and demerits of the two governors, so you don't need to say more."

Li Ling nodded at them with a smile: "What you are saying is that you are neither military nor underestimated any military books, so this argument is naturally not good." After saying that, it was another turning point, "But after listening to your statement, I had a little bit of my own foolish opinion, but I was not angry at this moment. If there is anything wrong, I hope you will forgive me.

"You all said that the mistake was made by the two governors Shen Yue, but have you ever thought that everyone has missed an extremely critical figure, which is the fundamental reason why our border army is in trouble on the northern grasslands."

As everyone looked at him with a little puzzled look, he said in a solemn voice: "That is the transportation of food and supplies on the front line! It was because the transportation of food and supplies on the front line was not timely enough, and was hindered by heavy snow that the front army was trapped in Luoxinghai. Even in my opinion, the failure of Governor Yue to send troops in time was also related to the failure of the allocation of food and grass to follow up in time. However, Governor Shen was a little anxious and also believed that the dispatch of food and grass was not difficult and he would be able to keep up. So he advanced and steadily, so he stayed in Youzhou!"

Not only did the drinkers be stunned, but even the emperor on the fourth floor also showed a thoughtful look: "What he said really makes sense. By the way, the one who pushed the mistake to Shen Chongshan from the beginning was the person from the Beiguan Transportation Commander?" He faintly made him catch some details that had been ignored before.

Everyone below had already reacted a little at this time, and someone immediately retorted: "You said casually. The transfer of food and grass is not easy, and it is often delayed. How can you randomly arrange the crime on them?"

"That's right, you are so sensational, but it's not what we scholars should do."
