Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 1139

   Chapter 1139 The old general and the new general

   “People who grow families?”

   Ye Guogong frowned, secretly suspicious.

   At this time, the Yunzhou army should be on their way back to Yunzhou. Even if they have already reached Yunzhou, Yunzhou is still hundreds of miles away from Jizhou. Why did the Yunzhou army come to Jizhou?

   But he just thought about it for a while, then he waved his hand and said, “Bring me here.”

“Yes.”

The family of Chen Guogong’s mansion lowered his head and led the people. Ye Mao casually pulled a loose robe from the side and draped it over his body. He reached out and scratched his unkempt hair. He hadn’t washed his hair for several months, and it was obviously too late to wash his hair by this time.

It didn’t take long for a middle-aged man to be brought to Ye Mao’s room by the generals of Chen Guogong’s mansion. Ye Guogong saw the appearance of the person who came, and suddenly he got angry and stood up directly from the chair, facing the middle-aged man. The man shouted angrily, “You fellow, how dare you come to see me!”

What can make Ye Mao so angry is naturally the main general of the Clan Army, Chong Wu. This Yunzhou general had previously ignored Yunzhou and led his army back to King Qin in Beijing, causing the entire Jiangbei land to be in danger, near Yunzhou City. The common people suffered heavy losses under the iron hoofs of the barbarians.

Zhong Wu took 70,000 Yunzhou troops all the way back to the capital, but when he arrived in Jeju, a thousand miles away from the capital, he received the news that the capital had fallen, but at that time he did not receive his father Zhong Wu. Xuantong’s letter, can only bite the bullet and continue to rush to the capital.

After they had walked three or four hundred miles south from Jeju, they received a letter from Chong Xuantong, instructing them to return to Yunzhou to guard the northern border of Dajin, and then Chong Xuantong brought another 70,000 Yunzhou troops with him. , return to Yunzhou.

However, after they returned to Northern Xinjiang, Zhong Wu did not directly return to Yunzhou City, but separated the main force of Yunzhou City. 50,000 Yunzhou troops returned to Yunzhou to defend the city, and he came with 20,000 Yunzhou troops himself. Jizhou.

   Of course, at this time, 20,000 people were still a hundred or two hundred miles away from Jizhou, and Zhongwu came here on a fast horse.

The Yunzhou general, who was in his forties, turned a little red when he heard Ye Mao’s words. He took two steps back, bowed deeply to Ye Mao, and smiled bitterly: “Chong is here to ask Ye Guogong. Apologetic.”

   “The Zhong family has been guarding the frontier for decades, why don’t you want to be like Ye Gongye, who defends the land for the people? But loyalty and righteousness can’t be both. Under the imperial decree, I had to bring the Yunzhou army back to Beijing King Qin…”

   “I’ve been on the road for the past few months, and I’ve been hearing that Ye Gongye is sticking to Jizhou. He is ashamed and ashamed. He brought 20,000 Yunzhou troops to support Jizhou as soon as he arrived in northern Xinjiang.”

   He took a deep breath and bowed his head to Ye Mao: “The 20,000 Yunzhou army is more than 100 miles outside the city of Jizhou. They can reach Jizhou tomorrow and during the day, waiting for Ye Gongye to dispatch.”

“Although these 20,000 people are not many, they can make Jizhou safe in a short period of time. I heard that the imperial court is supporting the imperial army in Jizhou. Now that they are on the way, with these 20,000 people, I can definitely let the grandfather support the imperial court’s reinforcements. Give your grandpa some relief.”

   After saying that, Chong Wu glanced at the tall Ye Mao, and cupped his hands deeply: “I heard that your grandfather’s injury is not serious, this way, your grandfather can rest in peace for a few days.”

  The so-called people who don’t reach out and don’t hit the smiling face, the original status of the Chong family is no worse than that of the Ye family. Although Chong Wu is not the owner of the family, he is also the future owner of the family. His current posture in front of Ye Mao is extremely low.

   Ye Guogong snorted and said with a sneer: “General Chong’s support is timely. It seems that I, Ye Mao, will die in Jizhou without your 20,000 Yunzhou troops.”

   “Your grandfather is virtuous, naturally there is no problem.”

  Chongwu lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice: “But these recruits around your grandfather have been fighting hard for a few months. Your grandfather just thinks it is a skeleton for the future Zhenbei Army.”

Although the military quality of these recruits recruited by Ye Mao is generally not high, but after a few months of fighting, these recruits who can survive on the battlefield have been baptized into experienced veterans. With these people as skeletons, in the future If Ye Mao wanted to rebuild the Zhenbei Army, it would be less difficult.

  Ye Mao looked at Chong Wu up and down, and then curled his lips: “When did your Chong family put themselves in the shoes of my Zhenbei Army?”

  Zhongwu gave Ye Mao another deep sigh, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: “Does Lord Ye know that the capital has been turned upside down.”

Ye Mao sneered and said casually: “I know a little bit, if the situation in the capital is undecided, how can your general return to the northern border in embarrassment? Most of the time you have to smash all the Yunzhou troops in the capital before giving up. If the court wins, Then when the generals came to Jizhou at this time, they would not come to send reinforcements, but to take Ye’s life.”

  Chongwu looked left and right, and then said to Ye Mao: “Master Ye, I have something to say, I want to tell you alone.”

   Ye Mao was expressionless, turned his head and said, “You come with me.”

He is tall and has great strides. He left the front hall in three or two steps and came to the backyard of the house. Ye Mao sat down in a wooden pavilion in the backyard, then raised his eyes and glanced at Zhongwu, his face blank. Expression: “For the sake of your 20,000 reinforcements, just say anything.”

Chong Wu sat opposite Ye Mao, first took a deep breath, and then said slowly: “Master Ye, my Chong family admires Ye Ye’s master, and I have respected the Ye family very much over the years, you and I. Apart from the previous affairs of King Qin, there is no conflict in the family, right?”

  The position of the Zhong family in Dajin is special. They are in a relatively detached position and basically do not have any dealings with other ministers. Over the years, they have also kept their attitude towards the Ye family at a distance, and the two families have never had any old grudges.

   Ye Mao sneered: “When my grandfather was there, there was no conflict between any family in the capital and ours.”

   “But my grandfather has been gone for the past few years, so your family relied on your status as a royal relative and looked down on us.”

   “I personally went from Yancheng to stop you, King Qin, to persuade you with good words. What was your attitude towards me at that time?”

  Chongwu’s face was calm, and he said quietly: “At that time, Lord Ye punched me, but I didn’t fight back.”

   “The matter of King Qin is the result of deciding right or wrong. Now that the Marquis of Jing’an has controlled the situation in the capital, we have put up with this matter and have nothing to say.”

   “I came here to see the grandpa because I want to say something else to the grandpa.”

   Ye Mao’s face was expressionless: “Don’t you want to drag my Ye family to work together as a king?”

   “Naturally not.”

  Chongwu slowly shook his head and said, “Hundreds of thousands of imperial troops can’t stop the Southwest Army. The combined strength of your two and my family is not enough to threaten the capital, and Ye Gongye will not agree to this.”

He looked at Ye Mao and said slowly: “Ye Gongye is familiar with Li Houye, and should know something about the Southwest Army. Now that the Southwest Army occupies the imperial court, a large number of military upstarts will inevitably emerge. A large number of new generals have come out, and after these people take charge of the imperial court, it is still unknown where the way out for us will be.”

“Master Ye’s family is friendly with Li Changan, so naturally there will be no problem, but this time it was my father who presided over the Imperial Army in the capital and offended the Southwest Army. The Yunzhou Army’s choice of King Qin will also anger Master Li again. No one can tell where the future of the family will be.”

   “I came to see the grandfather today, except for this matter.”

   Having said this, Chong Wu took a deep breath and continued: “It is already unstoppable that new generals will emerge from the court, but how many new generals there will be, and how much they will take away from the court, I don’t know yet.”

“Although the Ye family is an old general, the relationship between the Ye family and Li Houye is well known in the capital. The purpose of my visit to the master is to let the master leave Jizhou after the Xianbei people temporarily retreat. On the side of things, go back to the capital and fight back some of the things that should be fought.”

  Chongwu said to Ye Maozuo: “I also ask Ye Gongye to give us people a way out.”

   Having said this, Zhongwu paused for a while, and then said bitterly: “If Li Houye blames Qi Zhongjia, please also ask Ye Gongye to help talk about it.”

   “It’s just for the sake of… 20,000 reinforcements.”
