    " Meng Ju, the governor of Tongzhi Guan Dongping, is a man who is like a tiger and a wolf. He is narrow-minded, violent, rebellious and unruly. He likes to kill repeatedly. His eyes are not straight, his eyes are disrespectful, and there are many arrogant and illegal words in his words.  Where This person is probably not a good official in our court Meng Ju has a resolute temperament and is quite talented. If this person becomes powerful, he will be a trouble for our Wei Dynasty in the future, so we should get rid of him early. If this person is a disaster,  , its cruelty may be even worse than that of Tuoba Six Towns"

    "I'm afraid the disaster will be worse than that of Tuoba Sixth Town!"

    Thinking of Wei Ping's comments about Meng Ju back then, Murong Po secretly sighed: Jiang is still old and hot. What Zhong Cheng said back then has unfortunately become a reality!

    Although he was different from Wei Ping's political faction, Murong Po still admired the foresight of this veteran and important official of the Wei Dynasty.  Not only Wei Ping, but also Duanmu Liang, Bai Wusha and others - those outstanding ministers with precise vision and capable skills can no longer be found in the current Wei court, and the talents of the Wei Dynasty are withering.

    Needless to say, the generals of the Jinwu Guard, apart from bragging and showing off their family status, have they ever won a battle?  Meng Ju, a powerful general with unparalleled military power, is a rare thing that can only be seen in a thousand years. It¡¯s just that he is not blessed, but even Tuoba Xiong has outstanding generals like Li Chimei, Helian Bashan, and Hong Tianyi under his command. How can he  Are there only people like Xuan Wenke who can only sell words?

    Speaking of civil servants, this is what saddens Murong Po even more - it¡¯s not that the Murong family has no civil servants. There are a lot of Jinshi and Hanlin officials in the court. If they want to recite poems, compose poems and quote scriptures, they can talk endlessly.  It lasted three days and three nights, but I really had to do something practical.  They're guaranteed to make a mess.  Murong Po has not yet discovered a famous minister who could reach the level of a famous minister in the Taichang period, who was capable of conducting political affairs and commanding the army, and who had an overall vision.  in that mutiny.  What the Wei Dynasty lost was not only its wealth and troops, but also its country-governing talents that took an entire generation to grow up.

    Looking at the civil servants and generals in the tent.  Murong Po felt very sad: it seemed that there were many civil servants and military generals, but in fact, the civil servants and generals were all mediocre because they were not civilized enough to secure the country and their military power was incapable of defeating thieves.

    Regarding the matter of aiding Meng Ju, until now, they have not figured out what the key to the matter is.  They only thought of killing someone with a borrowed knife and protecting themselves wisely.  They only think about driving away wolves and devouring tigers, only thinking about fighting for the heir, and only thinking about how to keep the family rich and noble, but no one can think about it from the perspective of the safety of the Wei Dynasty - the depth of their thoughts and vision can only reach this level.  .

    After thinking about this, Murong Po finally made a decision.

    "The old minister is very right, it is not polite to come and go. In the past, the governor helped the court, and the court should reciprocate the courtesy - Zhang Quan!"

    Zhang Quan responded: "The general is here!"

    "I order you to lead the third brigade of the Shuzhou Army to reinforce the Governor. You need to be cautious when marching. If you encounter a large number of rebels, you must not waste time and withdraw quickly."

    "The general will obey your orders."

    "Okay, let's set off now. Be careful along the way to avoid being attacked by the rebels."

    Zhang Quan took the order and left. Everyone in the tent was silent, secretly trying to figure out His Majesty's thoughts - His Majesty instructed Zhang Quan to advance cautiously and retreat when encountering the enemy. This was almost telling everyone clearly that the so-called reinforcements were actually just a reinforcement.  Just a look.

    "But His Majesty clearly doesn't want to rescue Meng Ju, so why do you still have to pretend like this?"  Who is your Majesty trying to show this to?  Some sensitive ministers murmured in their hearts: Could it be that His Majesty did this to give His Highness the Crown Prince an explanation?  Could it be that the rumors that His Majesty intends to replace the East Palace a while ago are false?  In fact, His Majesty attaches great importance to the Prince. He loves birds as well as people under the house. Even the Prince, a domineering subordinate, His Majesty has to make gestures to win over?

    With their own thoughts, everyone looked a little strange.  Murong Po did not care about the thoughts of his ministers. He asked: "Manager Nanyun, has Jiang Huai Army's post report arrived today?"

    Manager Nanyun came out and reported: "Your Majesty, today's post has not arrived yet. But Your Majesty, don't worry. With Governor Pu sitting in charge of Jianghuai, the Southern Dynasty will not dare to offend me."

    "As soon as the post arrives, report to me as soon as possible. Xuan Wenke, you are responsible for contacting the border army Hong Tianyi's headquarters. How is the progress now?"

    Xuan Wenke came out and responded: "Your Majesty, Hong has agreed to the court's recruitment, but he has put forward some conditions. The humble minister cannot make the decision and can only submit it to His Majesty's Holy Judgment."

    "you say."

    "Hong is willing to surrender to the imperial court, but he does not want to serve in the imperial court. Instead, he wants to serve as the governor of a province locally. In addition, his subordinates and soldiers must be taken away. The imperial court is not allowed to divide them, nor can they transfer him without permission.  An officer under his command. As for the two brigades of soldiers and horses under his command, he requested to be treated and supplied according to the Jinwu Guards."

    Murong Po sneered "hehe" twice, with a sullen look on his face: Did Hong Tianyi really regard the court's tolerance as weakness?  To be the capital of a provinceGovernor, he wants to have two brigades of private soldiers of his own, and the court has to pay to help him maintain them - such a generous condition, even if Tuoba Xiong sits on the throne, it will be nothing more than this.

    But Murong Po had a deep nature and remained calm even though he was extremely annoyed.  He said slowly: "Hong's request is a little too much. Xuan Wenke, you can negotiate with him again: if he is willing to change his ways, the court will definitely not treat him badly. He wants to be appointed governor of a province, and this matter can be discussed.  But the imperial court will definitely reorganize his troops. As for how to reorganize them, we might as well think about it in the long run - General Guo Zhonglang, do you have anything to say?"

    Guo Deng, the commander-in-chief of the town army, took a step forward and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the general is brave and has a word of advice: the Bei Ni army is defeated and blocked by the imperial soldiers and the Dongping army. It is a dead end!"

    "This group of rebellious thieves are all heinous people who should be crushed and the nine tribes should be exterminated. It's just that His Majesty the Benevolent One has mercy and gives them a way out. That is their great destiny."  But the traitors don't take good care of them, and they dare to speak arrogant words to threaten the court. In this case, why should Your Majesty show mercy to such arrogant and ignorant people?

    According to the general's humble opinion, the imperial court does not need to continue talking to the Hong thief. At that time, the king's army will advance and crush these arrogant rebels into powder with a thunderous force, so that they can see the power of the imperial court!  "

    As soon as Zhonglang Guo Deng said this, all the generals agreed one after another, and the young Zhonglang generals were even more excited: "What General Guo Zhonglang said is true. The traitors are stubborn and their crimes are heinous. Although your Majesty is a benevolent king, but  Don¡¯t be merciful to them.¡±

    At this moment, the anger of the Jinwu Guard generals was indeed sincere - how could they not be angry?  Everyone in the Jinwu Guard risked quarreling and annihilating the clan to follow Murong Po in rebellion. They fought bloody battles in the north and south. Wasn't it just that they could be sent to a province to become a governor in the future?  But the territory of the imperial court is limited, and there are only a few governor positions. There are so many commanders and generals in the Jinwu Guard, and there is not enough to divide them. Now even the surrendered generals of the frontier army have to come over to grab a share, so what else can we do?  Does it work?

    Listening to the shouts of the generals, Murong Po remained calm and expressionless - he considered the problem from a different angle: Most capable people have tempers. Hong Tianyi is the same as Helian Bashan and Li Chimei.  As a famous general in Northern Xinjiang, if he dares to speak wild words to the imperial court, he must be somewhat dependent on him.  The imperial court is at a time of employment. Whether it is to deal with Meng Ju or to resist the Southern Dynasty, generals who can fight are always needed.  If you can exchange the title of governor of a province for the sincere service of a famous general, it is really a good deal.

    As for the backlash of his generals, Murong Po didn't worry at all - the Jin Wuwei guys were incompetent in fighting, but they were very active in grabbing official positions.  If you were half as good as Hong Tianyi, I would have sent you out to be the governor long ago. What's the use of arguing?

    Amidst the noise, there was a burst of rapid footsteps and the clang of armor from outside the tent. The curtain was lifted, and someone quickly walked in. Everyone turned to look, but it was Zhang Quan, the governor of Shuzhou who had just left.

    Murong Po was slightly surprised: "Captain Zhang, I ordered you to go and reinforce Governor Meng. Why did you turn back so quickly? But you encountered a large group of rebels?"

    Governor Zhang was panting slightly and his chest was heaving. It was obvious that he had jogged all the way.  Facing everyone's suspicious looks, he cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I have something urgent to report!"

    "explain!"

    "We have just received an urgent report: the Dongping Army attacked from the city, defeated the rebels who were attacking the city, and returned with a great victory - Your Majesty, the Dongping Army has won this battle, will the general continue to go over for reinforcements?"

    Murong Po suddenly jumped up from his seat - not only him, but all the Jinwu Guard generals shouted: "Did the Dongping Army win?"

    The crowd rushed towards Zhang Quan and surrounded him: "Zhang Quan, what nonsense are you talking about?! How is that possible?"

    "It's only noon, and the war started less than an hour ago. How did the Dongping Army do it?"

    The generals were all shouting together, and it was so noisy that no one could hear anyone clearly.  In the chaos, Murong Po shouted: "Shut up, everyone, go back to the team and stand still - Zhang Quan, please tell the news carefully!"

    The news Zhang Quan received was actually very simple, with only a few words: "The frontier troops were defeated across the board, and Dongping was victorious!"

    There was an oppressive silence in the tent again.  The emperor and generals of the Murong family digested the shock in silence.  You must know that this is not a division of troops along the way, nor a division of troops and horses along the way, but the main force personally commanded by the rebel leader, which includes all the elites of the rebels.  Even if the imperial court had more than 100,000 superior troops and the support of Mingjue Master of the Ye family, it would not dare to fight to the death with this main force of rebels and could only expel them all the way north.  The Dongping Army only had about 10,000 people, but they could actually defeat the rebels in the field?

    After a long silence, someone said weakly: "ThisshouldCould it be a misinformation?  "

    Murong Po waved his hand vigorously and said decisively: "Let's explore again!"

    The news came back quickly, and the news brought back by several teams of scouts was the same: the border army was indeed defeated. Thousands of their soldiers fled and were scattered all over the mountains and plains.  The scouts from each team captured many prisoners. After being tortured, they all got the same news: the Dongping Army was victorious and the Border Army was defeated miserably.  !  ~!
