    "Sir, you and I are our Lords. In fact, I regard you as my confidant. I wonder what difficulties you have? You might as well tell me. Maybe Meng can solve it?"

    Meng Ju said it very sincerely, but Mr. Wen seemed to be indifferent, his eyes were dull, as if he was in a trance.  After a while, he sighed and said: "It doesn't matter, the student is grateful to the master for his kindness, and the matter must be made clear.

    "My lord, you know the student's background. He used to serve in the Six-Town Governor's Mansion and was highly valued by the emperor's uncle. He was often called for consultation and inquiry, and occasionally heard about military aircraft.  .  .  "

    Meng Ju was confused when he heard this: You suddenly talked to me about your affairs in the Six-Town Governor's Mansion without any clue. Could it be that you are implying that you are actually a very nostalgic and caring person, so you are now a conscience?  Found that you missed your old master?  However, Tuoba Xiong has been dead for almost a month, and you are suddenly feeling sad. Isn't it too slow?

    "Yes, gold can shine wherever you go. You are a great talent, and you will stand out no matter where you go. Human beings are not grass and trees. Uncle Tuoba used to be kind to you, but now that he is gone, he misses you a little. That's also true."  It's human nature, this shows that you value love and justice, so I won't blame you, just don't worry."

    Mr. Wen was stunned for a moment, then showed a dumbfounded expression: "Lord, where did you want to go? That's not what I'm talking about - I mean, at that time, I also knew some confidential matters in the Six Towns Dudu Mansion."

    Speaking of this, Mr. Wen's expression became serious, and he looked at Meng Ju with piercing eyes: "Once, in an official document from the court, it was mentioned that there was an Eagle Marquis of the Southern Dynasties hiding among our generals in the northern Xinjiang.  , codenamed 'Po Jun Xing'. At that time, Uncle Tuoba specially summoned all the staff in our house to discuss how to find this Yinghou, but in the end, because the clues were too vague, it was really impossible to investigate this matter.  It¡¯s still nothing.¡±

    Meng Ju was shocked in his heart, but he remained calm on the face: "I also know a little bit about Po Junxing. When Governor Dongping Ye was still alive, she mentioned this matter to me. Later, Xian Zhenbai  My father-in-law also mentioned this matter to me and asked me to pay close attention to it¡ª¡ªSir, please continue."

    Looking at Meng Ju, Mr. Wen smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying anything. That weird smile made Meng Ju's heart drop.

    "Sir, what do you mean when you look at me like this?"

    "My lord, do you really want me to continue talking?"

    Mr. Wen still shook his head and smiled bitterly. He handed over a sealed document and stood up: "My Lord, a few nights ago, Wang Hu's scouts were patrolling the night. They caught a group of suspicious people, and they were found by our soldiers.  Some documents. Wang Hu was illiterate and handed the things to the students directly. I had no time until last night, so I opened them and took a look at them casually, and then Then the students kept their eyes open until dawn and never slept again.  It¡¯s gone.¡±

    Mr. Wen smiled bitterly and stood up unsteadily: "My lord, I will leave the things here for now. You can watch carefully. The student has gone back to take a nap first. He is really too sleepy."

    When Mr. Wen spoke, Meng Ju remained silent. It was not until he stood up to leave that Meng Ju raised his hand and stopped him: "Sir, wait a minute - what is in this?"

    Mr. Wen stopped and shook his head: "Students dare not say anything because they are afraid of being hacked to death."

    "Sir, you are confused. With my current status, there is still something I can't bear? Do I still need to kill people and silence them?"

    "My lord is right" Mr. Wen thought for a while and sighed: "Yes, the student knows too much. It is indeed too late to leave now."

    As he said that, Mr. Wen sat back on the chair again. He poked the envelope on the case and said, "The student read it last night. There are several things in it. One is the imperial edict issued by Emperor Renxing of the Southern Dynasty to your lord, and the other is  The identity is the order from the Ministry of War of the Southern Dynasties - I haven't opened the order from the Ministry of War yet, so the students really don't know what it says. The students only read the imperial edict. His Majesty Renxing attaches great importance to the lord, and canonize you as the right minister of the Ministry of War.  Your lord, Wang Hu, the general who conquered the north and the military envoy to the north, is illiterate. Only the student has read these materials. The family of the student also asks the lord to take good care of the student for the sake of his small contribution to the Lord's service.  ¡±

    When speaking, Mr. Wen's expression remained calm and his tone was serious. Meng Ju didn't know whether he was joking or really believed that he would kill people and silence them.

    Meng Ju smiled awkwardly: "Sir, you are joking. You have been kind to me and made great contributions to our Dongping Army. No matter who I am, my respect for you has never changed. How could I harm you with one finger?"  Sir, you should trust me on this."

    Meng Ju spoke sincerely and sincerely, and Mr. Wen was slightly moved.

    The two looked at each other in silence for a long time. Mr. Wen saidHe asked cautiously: "Lord, are you really the Eagle Lord of Beifu, 'Po Junxing'?"

    "'Pojunxing' is not me. As you know, sir, at that time I was just a nobody who had just arrived in northern Xinjiang. How could I be qualified to be called a senior officer?"

    "Yes, the time does not match up. You are a Han, and Marshal Tuoba did have the idea to pin the crime of Pojunxing on you, and wanted to use this excuse to get rid of you. Later he was still a student  After dissuading him, the student told the marshal that as early as the sixth year of Taichang, the court had reported that there was an Eagle Marquis of the Southern Dynasty among the officers of Northern Xinjiang. However, my lord, you only came to Northern Xinjiang in the eighth year of Taichang. This time is obviously  No. If you use this excuse to kill people, the court will never pass the test."

    Mr. Wen breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I convinced the emperor at that time, otherwise I would not have the fate to serve the lord now. My lord, I see the imperial edict written by Li Gongwei of the Southern Tang Dynasty, that means It seems that my lord, you have been here for a long time."  Have you started working for Southern Tang?"

    "Yes, I joined Beifu when I was fifteen years old, and now I am Captain Ying Yang of the Jiangdu Forbidden Army."

    Mr. Wen frowned and looked at Meng Ju, his eyes were very strange, as if he was looking at something strange.

    "My lord has great ambitions, far beyond the ordinary. Extraordinary people have their own extraordinary behavior. The Southern Dynasty originated from Liu Han Zhengshuo, which can be regarded as orthodox, but he has lived in Jiangdong for three hundred years, far away from the elite civilization of the Central Plains, and has been peaceful for a long time  But at that time, my lord was still a young man and his mind was not yet mature. It is not surprising that he admired the Southern Dynasty, but Alas!"

    As he spoke, Mr. Wen shook his head and sighed.  The regret was clearly displayed on his face - Meng Ju felt that his expression was like seeing the top scorer in the college entrance examination who was admitted to the dog-tail branch of a certain pheasant university in later generations. Meng Ju felt angry when he saw it.  He wanted to shout at Mr. Wen: "I am a Han, and I stand with the Han court. Isn't this normal?"

    But in the end, Meng Ju still held back and remained silent.  He also knows that in the eyes of the current upper class, what he has done is indeed considered a heresy.

    In the eyes of a senior scholar like Mr. Wen.  The concept of nation and country is very indifferent. The concept they pursue is that birds choose good trees to roost on, and what they pay attention to is "you will treat me as a countryman, and I will repay you as a countryman."  But people like Meng Ju, who just for the sake of his ethnic origin, left behind the high-ranking official and generous salary awarded by the Xianbei court to serve a regime thousands of miles away, it was risky and had little benefit. They could not understand this kind of strong national sentiment.

    However, Meng Ju also discovered that the literati had a weak concept of family and country, which was not without its benefits.  Just like Mr. Wen.  As long as he is sure that Meng Ju is a lord worth following, then.  He had no thoughts of guilt about betraying the Wei Dynasty.

    After the two sides had a frank discussion, Mr. Wen immediately resumed his duties as a military advisor. He opened the imperial edict promulgated by the Southern Tang Dynasty and helped Meng Ju explain the meaning of the edict word by word:

    "The Emperor of Heaven carries out the imperial edict and says: I govern the world with literature and quell rebellions with force. The military commanders and generals are the mainstay of the imperial court and the foundation of the country. I have the Yinghou of Beifu and the captain of Jiangdu Imperial Army, Meng, lying down on salary and tasting courage to lurk in Beidi.  , garrisoning the border troops. Excellent martial arts. The Meng family is in the barbarian Rongdi, and they can think of loyalty and orthodoxy, and work hard to serve. How can I neglect their achievements and not praise them in order to favor their fate? I am specifically conferring on you the military garrison envoy to the north, and entrusting you with the expedition to the north.  He was given the title of General, and was given the title of Right Minister of the Ministry of War, hoping to further display his military power, invigorate the barbarians, and promote China.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? "May 15th, the seventh year of Renxing"

    While the two were watching, Mr. Wen suddenly slapped his head: "The student almost forgot - Lord, the envoys from the court who brought things are still being held captive by General Wang Hu."

    Meng Ju hurriedly called the guards to pick him up from Wang Hu's place. After about two quarters of an hour, the guards picked him up: it was none other than Mr. Yi, an old acquaintance.

    After being imprisoned by Wang Hu for a few days, Mr. Yi seemed to be in good condition and had not suffered any torture.

    After the two sides exchanged greetings, Mr. Yi glanced at Mr. Wen and gave Meng Ju a questioning look. Meng Ju said seriously: "Old Yi, you can rest assured. Mr. Yi is my military advisor and one of my own. It's my business.  , he knows it all.¡±

    Wen Hanzhang stood up with a smile and saluted: "If the people below hadn't sent the things to me, the governor and we wouldn't have known that they had caused a big disaster and offended the angels of the court. The warriors below were reckless and Master Yi was wronged.  , Wen Mou hereby apologizes."

    The matter itself was a misunderstanding. Mr. Yi was also a well-informed and open-minded person, and he did not care about the misunderstanding of Meng Ju's arrest. The three of them sat down to talk in detail. Mr. Yi got straight to the point and got to the point: "Meng Ju, Wen  Sir, you have read the imperial edict, appointments, and presentations, so I won¡¯t repeat them again. Your Majesty¡¯s trust in you is clearly stated in the imperial edict, but there are still some words that are His Majesty¡¯s oral instructions and cannot be put into writing.  I can convey it verbally.??

    Meng Ju was accustomed to smiling playfully with Mr. Yi, but he suddenly became an official announcing the decree in such a serious manner. Meng Ju was really not used to it. He twisted his body awkwardly, and Mr. Wen answered on his behalf: "I don't know if your majesty has any feelings for my lord."  What holy edict? We are listening attentively."

    "Meng Zhengbei, the court has learned that you abandoned the dark side and turned to the light, resolutely broke with the Tatars and turned against the Tatars. Your Majesty is very pleased with this and has ordered me to tell you: General Zhengbei, don't worry, you are not fighting alone.  , the Tang Dynasty will never abandon its loyalists. Please hold on for a moment longer, and I, the Tang Dynasty, will raise the entire nation's troops to support you.

    When I left Jiangdu, the Ministry of War was already mobilizing troops from all directions to recruit troops. It is estimated that within a few days, we will soon hear news about the Northern Expedition.

    Your Majesty assures you that in this Northern Expedition, our army will come to the aid of more than 500,000 imperial soldiers and horses, all of whom are elite soldiers and horses drawn from the Western Expeditionary Army and the towns of Jingxiang and Jiangdu. Our army will sweep across the Central Plains.  In Kuo Qingyu, the rivers and mountains were unified, and the end of the Xianbei Tartars was approaching.

    Meng Zhengbei, your military fame is well-known to the whole world. His Majesty has high expectations for you. I hope that in this Northern Expedition, you can cooperate with the main force of the king's division and make great achievements again.

    I heard that you are making good progress and have surrounded the tenth brigade of soldiers and horses led by Murong Huai, the Minister of War of the puppet dynasty?  Your Majesty is very pleased with this, and hopes that you can deal with the remnants of this army as soon as possible, pursue Di Chief Murong Po's troops, and prevent them from facing each other with Jianghuai Pu Liying's bandit troops, so that Wang Shi can defeat them one by one.  "

    Listening to Mr. Yi's words, Meng Ju felt that his throat was dry and his face was stiff. He and Mr. Wen looked at each other, and both of them saw deep fear in each other's eyes.

    Both Meng Ju and Mr. Wen were complaining secretly: They never expected that this emotional dispute between themselves and the Murong family would be regarded by the Southern Dynasties as a righteous act of "abandoning the dark and turning to the bright and doing justice anyway". The emperor of the Southern Dynasty also followed the trend and provided "reinforcements"  "General Meng who fought alone" launched this unprecedented Northern Expedition.

    what to do?

    ???????????? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    On the morning of June 24, the second year of Tianyou¡¯s reign, while Meng Ju was talking to Mr. Yi, the Yangtze River became unprecedentedly busy.

    On the river for hundreds of miles from Jiangdu to Jingzhou, groups of soldiers and horses were boarding ships from the south bank in a steady stream. The soldiers and horses queuing up at the docks on the river bank waiting to board the ships could not be seen to the end.  On both sides of the Yangtze River, under the scorching sun, a large number of soldiers and horses were advancing along the river bank. Red soldiers covered the dams on both sides of the river, and countless battle flags flew in the sky, blocking out the sun.

    On the river, tens of thousands of boats were sailing together, hundreds of ships were vying to cross the river. The warships transporting soldiers and heavy supplies were so dense that even the river was obscured by them.  The flags of various military towns continued one after another, and the ships shouted war trumpets to each other. The shouts rose and fell one after another. The high fighting spirit seemed to make the river boil.

    "Expel the Tartars and return the Central Plains to me!"

    "Three hundred years of avenging shame, ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains!"

    "There should be such a day in China, and the Tartars will be wiped out! The Tang Dynasty will be victorious, and my emperor will be victorious!"

    "Luo Jing, we are back! Zhongyuan, we are back!"
