According to the customs of the Yuanxing people, from the fifth to the seventh day of the first lunar month, these days are usually used to meet colleagues and friends.

Friends and colleagues can have banquets, hang out, eat, drink, and play. Even if you are a New Year's job, you can go out to get together with friends and colleagues during the break and have fun.

I originally planned to go to the Hong family today to see how Hong Guoli was doing, and then go to the garrison of the Third Battalion of Yuanxing Town to see the old farmer. If the Little Red plan can be implemented on the fifth day of the lunar month and it is guaranteed to ruin my marriage with Shuang'er, I will go to the Bi family to apologize tomorrow and give Bi Jin and Shuang'er an explanation.

But the Yuanxing Daily on February 11 disrupted my plan. It made everyone know about my engagement with Princess Zhaoxi. Although my name was not mentioned, as long as the newspaper reader knew me, it was easy to confirm that the 18-year-old legendary colonel mentioned in the newspaper was me.

That's why Bi Jin came to the door - to be precise, he found the military camp.

Lin Zhongsheng and the old farmer came to the military camp. Bi Jin came to talk to me, and the old farmer came to congratulate me. I was prepared for their arrival.

But Lin Zhongsheng's appearance surprised me. He came earlier than Bi Jin and the old farmer, but was the third one to see me. Bi Jin was the second one. When we were talking at the gate of the military camp, the old farmer in the yellow officer uniform arrived. I took them into the military camp. When we entered the gate, we saw Lin Zhongsheng, who was already wearing a large green military uniform and a lieutenant colonel rank eavesque, walked towards him with an anxious look on his face.

After seeing me, he immediately accelerated his pace and came to me. Behind him were several guards, one of whom was a Gun Bai. Without waiting for me to speak, he grabbed my wrist and asked the guards to accompany Bi Jin and the old farmer, dragged me and set a distance between them, and said with a frown.

"Captain, have you read the newspaper today?"

I knew that the newspaper he was talking about was Yuanxing Daily, so I nodded and didn't say anything. As soon as I nodded, he couldn't wait to explain.

"Team leader, although I haven't contacted the principal yet, I can confirm that this is not the principal's intention. Based on my understanding of the principal, he will never interfere with the private life of the students. You see, because the woman became like that, the principal did not say that he killed those two women so that senior Si Congpo would change his mind... I mean-"

"Lieutenant Colonel Lin, what do you mean is that Mr. Wen is not planning to arrange a marriage for me?"

"Absolutely not!" Lin Zhongsheng replied confidently, "Even if there is a arrangement, the principal will not let you marry Prince Rui's Mansion. It is meaningless to do so, and it will also ruin your reputation... Although this is not the case in terms of the result, in terms of the overall situation, Prince Rui's Mansion has no value to make friends."

"What's going on with the newspaper today?"

"I don't know either." Lin Zhongsheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It should be that something happened to the newspaper. I have sent someone to ask, and I guess there will be news in a while."

Lin Zhongsheng sent someone to ask, "Where is Wen Xiangwu?"

Logically speaking, this kind of thing should be more informed by Wen Xiangwu. After all, things were done under his instructions, so he must pay attention to the development of the situation. Lin Zhongsheng has been running around with me these days. During the Chinese New Year, Lin Zhongsheng's wife is pregnant again and needs his company. So he must be busy these days, has no time and no energy to collect this information.

And just now he said that he could not contact Wen Xiangwu. Lin Zhongsheng knew very well about Wen Xiangwu's character and habits. He should have a clear idea of ​​when and where Wen Xiangwu would be. Even if it was a little more troublesome, he could contact him. Now he said that he could not contact Wen Xiangwu, which was too strange.

"Where is Mr. Wen now?"

"I said I went to the imperial city." Lin Zhongsheng frowned and replied, "It seems that the emperor summoned him, but the specific reason for the summons was not clear, and I don't know. The Wen family's manager said that the principal's expression was solemn when he went out, maybe something happened to the court."

At this critical moment, something happened to the court? Could it be a political conspiracy?

I just experienced it personally - to be precise, I personally experienced the political struggle, and I thought of this at the first time. Lin Zhongsheng also thought of this, but he was not worried because he was convinced that no one dared to have the idea of ​​Wen Xiangwu in the late Empire.

"The court's clans want to crush each other with the hands of the principal, which is very beneficial to us. As the saying goes, the snipe and clam fight, and the fisherman gains profit. Although the principal is not a fisherman, the strength of the principal will increase a little after each struggle. Now, the Third and Seventh Corps only follow the principal's leader, the Eighth Corps has no leader, and the 45th and 46th Divisions are each in charge. The 46th Division is already close to the principal. If the 45th Division can be won this time, then Yuanxing will be safe."

The Seventh Legion that Lin Zhongsheng mentioned was obviously the New Seventh Legion, because the old Seventh Legion had almost no military value. He said that the Third Legion and the 46th Division were Wen Xiangwu people, and I was not surprised at all. The Third Legion was a legion composed of Yuanxing people, and Wen Xiangwu was also Yuanxing people. Compared to being controlled by foreigners, the Third Legion would definitely be more willing to follow him.

Moreover, in previous events, Wen Xiangwu was able to directly mobilize the troops of the Third Legion and the Eighth Legion, which is very telling. I was a little surprised that the Eighth Legion had no heads.

When it comes to the group of dragons without leaders, the first thing I think of is the guards that no longer exists. Because the headquarters of the Guards was taken over by them, they were not reorganized afterwards. Without the headquarters, the army would not be able to obtain unified command. Isn’t this the leader of the dragons without leaders?

But the facts seemed to be the opposite of my judgment. Didn’t I give a condolences to the new garrison troops in the Nanqiao Military Camp a few years ago? I chatted with the former company commander of the Guards. During the chat, I found that the Guards that had lost the Corps Command did not turn into a scattered sand, and were still united and the command system was not in chaos.

When the Eighth Legion entered Yuanxing City, the Guards were defeated. Their defeat was not due to uneven morale or poor command, but because of their mentality. At that time, from division commanders to soldiers, everyone was confused and didn't know why they were fighting.

As the Guards, they even killed the emperor and established a new king. What kind of guards are they? When the Eighth Legion came in, they shouted the slogan of going to Beijing with the orders to serve the king and eliminate the thieves. They had a moral advantage and far surpassed the Guards in morale.

At first, the Guards could still treat the Eighth Legion as a rebel and fight against it. But later, several cars came out of the imperial city, with the emperor's flag hanging on it. The people in the car shouted to the Guards Legion with a loudspeaker that they had committed the crime of regicide and were traitors. The emperor thought of the Guards Legion's loyalty to the royal family, and he only punished the thief leader and did not blame the crowd. He also asked the Guards Legion to surrender immediately.

The officers at the middle and grassroots level, as well as soldiers of the Guards, were ashamed and quickly stopped resisting. The Eighth Legion successfully entered the city and quickly controlled the Guards Legion. However, even though the Guards Legion were divided into two parts and handed over to the Third Legion and the Eighth Legion to control them, the people of the Guards Legion were still united and had no messy ideas.

I have said before that the commander of the Eighth Legion became the emperor because he became the emperor himself. He was killed by the Third Legion and the Guards. But he should be the only one who died. At most, his guards and confidants were included. The headquarters of the Eighth Legion must still be there. Since the headquarters is present, all the units of the Legion can be unified in command. It is logical that they should not do their own affairs.

Now Lin Zhongsheng said that the 46th Division has defected to Wenxiangwu, and the 45th Division has not yet. The two divisions affiliated to the same legion are not the same. This is not the same as doing their own affairs? Since they are doing their own affairs, there must be a major premise, that is, the group of dragons have no leaders, otherwise how can they do their own affairs?

The headquarters of the Guards Corps is gone, and they can still be united; the Eighth Corps just dies a commander, and they all have no leader and dominate themselves. Comparing the two, the higher the lower the rule is determined.
