Zhao Huicheng and Tai Shizheng had disagreements. Tai Shizheng was so angry that he almost wanted to stand up and argue with him, but Zhao Huicheng always looked calm and clear, and the two of them had a clear attitude.

But at this moment, no one came forward to persuade him. Even Zhuge Yuhua, the ruler of the Privy Council, narrowed his eyes, as if he had not seen all this. It was just because the grudge between the two was too deep and the family was in great power. If they were not done well, they would be covered in fishy clothes.

Speaking of which, after Zhao Huicheng forcibly brought Jiang Zhuying back to his home, he devoted himself to teaching Jiang Zhuying all his knowledge and even taught her the Qionglong halberd technique of the Taishi family. Zhao Huicheng had this halberd technique because when the Emperor Taizu, the Zhao family and the Taishi family had a good relationship and taught each other the essence of martial arts skills. Although it was just the essence, more than a dozen generations of the Zhao family were extremely talented in practicing martial arts, and had long been able to fully understand the halberd technique.

However, Zhao Huicheng himself did not learn this halberd technique. He just integrated several of the tricks suitable for the Zhao family's "Spring Breeze Eighteen Snaps" into the gun technique to make his own attack more fierce. A great man like Zhao Huicheng is already using attack instead of defense, and he has killed moves everywhere.

But for Jiang Zhuying, Zhao Huicheng taught her all the skills she knew about the Dragon Sword, and even the Eighteen Spreys of Spring Breeze were not reserved. However, Jiang Zhuying was born to practice this kind of martial arts that can win with her degree and skills. With her own talent, within ten years, his martial arts skills were almost complete, and he was admitted to the Jiangshan 6th Army Higher Education College. After graduation, he was sent directly by Zhao Huicheng to the Potian Legion stationed in Longcheng by Guan Zhongyun.

After Tai Shi Zheng knew all this, he felt like he was being directly snatched on the face, robbing his family and entrusting his martial arts with the Tai Shi family. All of these made him embarrassed and angry. But Tai Shi Zheng was helpless at this moment. After all, Zhao Huicheng accepted this woman as his adopted daughter, under the witness of many senior officials of the empire. No matter how cruel he was, if he dared to take action and hurt the girl, the imperial capital would have no place to stay.

Moreover, it was precisely for this girl that the Taishi family, the Liu family, the Zhao family, and even the butler had a bad relationship, and the price was quite high.

These past events are not a secret in the imperial capital. When Zhao Huicheng killed all the Taishi clans alone, it caused a sensation. However, most people who knew about this matter praised Zhao Huicheng for being affectionate and righteous, but had a very bad reputation for Taishi Zheng.

Of course, it is difficult to decide whether the family affairs of the empire is, especially this kind of offense that is superficially a dispute, but actually involves family affairs that are full of families and rise and fall, and it is not something that others are willing to take care of or able to take care of.

However, although Tai Shi Zheng's character is questionable, he has extremely good martial arts and is more capable of making power. Otherwise, he would not have ascended the throne of Deputy Minister of the ** Department of God.

At this moment, seeing Zhao Huicheng coming, it robbed everyone of the momentum. Tai Shi Zheng's new and old hatreds surged into his heart. He relied on his status and family affairs, and could not help but retorted, but was humiliated by Zhao Huicheng.

However, the other officials on the side remained silent. Both of them had prominent families and martial arts. No one wanted to touch such a demon.

At least, an infinite murderous aura had already emerged from Zhao Huicheng's seemingly gentle face. How could this be the general who came out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood?

~~~~~~~~

Seeing that the atmosphere became more and more subtle, everyone looked embarrassed and said without saying a word. Zhuge Yuhua, the governor of the Privy Council of the State Council, coughed and stood up and said, "Everyone, the purpose of our visit today is to discuss how to deploy the East China Sea defense line and prevent the Western coalition from invading Zhongdu. Lei Dongfeng is just off-topic. But as Yuan said, this person has made contributions to the empire after all, and his contributions are greater than his faults. Therefore, my personal suggestion is to temporarily promote him to the acting commander of the army according to Yuan's opinion. As for the so-called Kuanglan Army, due to the war,

It is necessary to allow it to exist for the time being, but due to the national crisis, he needs to solve the food, grass and military pay for himself, and then make a decision on the other matters in the future. As for the letter from Xiahou Junjie, I also received a letter from here, but I thought that since he could not provide any definite evidence, it would be rejected. However, he was fighting with Ars in Anyang Prefecture, but Feige sent a letter to let Lei Dongfeng's Kuanglan Army go to support him immediately. If there is any mistake, I will be determined to blame him! I wonder if this arrangement will be satisfactory to the British Marquis?"

Seeing Zhuge Yuhua speak again, everyone nodded. After all, Zhuge Yuhua's identity and age are there. If he is determined to support Zhao Huicheng, then the others will not be able to make a move. Even Tai Shi Zheng glared at Zhao Huicheng hatefully and turned his head away like a deflated ball.

"Well, I agree with Speaker Zhuge's opinion, but no matter what the result of the discussion, the real military achievements cannot be erased, otherwise the soldiers who do their best will be sad. Although Yuan He ignored political affairs according to the law, he had the right to participate in politics and make the final decision of the National Assembly. I think all of you here are important officials of the country and loyal ministers. Some things should be grasped clearly." Zhao Huicheng said lightly. After saying that, he stood up and bowed to everyone, saluted Yuan Chengmo and turned around and left.

Everyone expressed their expressions of approval, surprise, or anger, but no one raised any objections from Zhao Huicheng to leaving. It took only three or five minutes in total, and only five words, but they set the tone of the meeting, which really made people sigh.

After Zhao Huicheng left, everyone discussed for a long time. Finally, in principle, they agreed with the last opinion that Zhuge Yuhua made. Yuan Chengmo finally stated that he would send Zhuge Ting to condolences Lei Dongfeng in his personal name. Speaker Zhuge Yuhua and Director of the Secretary for Administration Tian Songren expressed their agreement one after another, and said that Zhuge Ting could also represent them. Minister Guan Bowen pondered for a long time and decided to hand over the letter of appointment of Lei Dongfeng to Zhuge Ting with him.

As for the order to ask Lei Dongfeng to go out to support the Ben Lei Army, he first sent a letter to Longyang.

In this way, a meeting of open and secret struggles, even tense ended hastily. Although Lei Dongfeng's status seems to have been recognized by the Empire, anyone knows that all this is just the beginning of the struggle of several forces in the Empire.

~~~~~~~~

On April 2, 999, when the latest episode of "Jiangshan Public Opinion" was placed on Yuan Chengmo's desk, Cheng Mo's face became particularly heavy.

The first page of the public opinion is shocking: the high-ranking officials of the Empire are jealous of the talents and the ability to suppress and restore heroes

The title is direct, but the content is even more intense. It points directly to the Emperor's Ministry and the National Assembly, and bluntly stated that at a recent military meeting, these senior officials actually criticized Lei Dongfeng, the commander of the Kuanglan Army in Longyang, Zhongdu, and believed that he was dissatisfied with management and should be punished. Fortunately, the British Marquis appeared in time, so that our heroes did not encounter unfair treatment, etc.

The whole article is not long, and it is vague when talking about the specific content of the meeting, but the information contained is enough to shock the imperial capital and even the four people of the empire.

Although the whole article criticized those high-ranking officials, Cheng Mo's face was as deep as water, because in this way, those high-ranking officials were likely to point their fingers at him, and they would think that he had stabbed such a message into the hands of public opinionists who were afraid that the world would not be in chaos. After all, officials who attended the meeting could see Cheng Mo's resentment. Although Zhao Huicheng's arrival made Cheng Mo feel some face, the grudges had been settled, and some things became darker and darker. Such a report undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.

Cheng Mo was anxious at this moment. He endured for many years and deliberately showed weakness to these aristocratic families and senior officials, just not wanting them to face all their goals. After all, from the day he was in power, people have heard people openly say to themselves: "It is said that the four people are equal, but they still have the position of Yuan Dynasty. Why not completely cancel this title?"

Because of this sentence, Cheng Mo has never been authoritarian in everything for more than ten years, and has even reached the point of not being able to ignore it, just to make those who are eyeing him relax their vigilance. But now, especially in recent years, he has been pushed to the forefront.

Now, such a report not only did not relieve him, but instead made him panic.

"Who is it? Who is doing this?" Cheng Mo wanted to drive to the headquarters of Jiangshan Public Opinion Museum to ask who came to report this news clue.

But he also knew that the imperial public opinion was free, unless he secretly kidnapped the peddler, it would be impossible to ask the news he wanted on the surface. Even as long as he left, he might be even more trapped in the tricks of the person behind him.

"If the Zijie is here, you will never be so helpless." Cheng Mo missed Zhuge Ting, but Zhuge Ting had given a temporary order last night to go to Central and Southern Province to summon Lei Dongfeng and Kuanglan Army.

"Yuan, Lord Cao Shiwu is asking for a meeting." A waiter hurriedly ran in. As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then a tall young man pushed the door and entered.

"What should be come is coming." Cheng Mo murmured.

"Cheng Chongzhi, you did a good thing!" The young man shouted as soon as he entered the door, and his pair of wolf eyes on his black face stared at Cheng Mo fiercely.

Cheng Mo's face turned pale when he heard this, but his hand slowly supported the sword by his waist and was about to pull it out.

~~~~~~~~

On April 21, 999, the central and southern provinces of the Empire were more than 70 miles south of Helin Town, Anyang Prefecture.

"Lei Army, the command from the military headquarters has arrived. We ordered us to go to Anyang Prefecture immediately to support the Lei Army." A fast horse chased the army that was marching and approached Lei Dongfeng Road.

"As Mu Tong expected, the imperial capital asked me to support Xiahou Junjie. It seems that it is right for us to go out first. Otherwise, if Xiahou Junjie fails, the imperial capital will definitely put the blame on us." Lei Dongfeng smiled with the letter from the flying pigeon.

"Well, these people are despised. They obviously want to trip up their elder brother, but they don't say anything clearly. They set up condoms everywhere. If it weren't for the alertness of the girl Mu Tong, we would have been delayed in Longyang, things would have been a bad thing." Jiang Zhuying snorted coldly and said hatefully.

Four days ago, Lei Dongfeng led the Kuanglan Army and the Fenwu Army to restore Longyang. The next day, the Western coalition led by Als confronted Wang Huaiyu's Boyang Army in Helin Town outside Anyang Prefecture.

But in just half a day, Als discovered the suspicious plan of Lingyun's army that was placed under Wang Huaiyu, and sent Duan Yichen to lead two thousand cavalry and eight thousand infantry to restrain the Boyang army, but he personally led the army to bypass Helin Town and head straight into Anyang Prefecture.

The battle in Anyang Prefecture broke out.

At this time, Anyang Prefecture was captured under the siege of the Benlei Army, and the defenders suffered heavy casualties. Less than 500 people and thousands of families of the accompanying army were still fighting to the death in the inner city. The Benlei Army also lost five or six thousand people in a few days of siege, and now there are less than 40,000 people.

As soon as the Ars army arrived, the Benlei Army immediately divided an infantry regiment to launch a blocking force, and most of the Benlei Army quickly retreated into the outer city of Anyang Prefecture.

It was not that Xiahou Junjie was timid, but that Cao Lan defected to the Kuanglan Army. After Wang Huaiyu divided the troops, the Benlei Army had only 3,000 cavalrymen at this moment, while the cavalry of the Ars army was at least twice that of his. If he started a field battle, he would suffer a loss.
