Chapter 629 The Most Suitable
Now that the head coach is gone, this matter naturally cannot be discussed further.
Everyone stood up one after another.
Zhang Ping'an noticed that the two deputy commanders looked very unhappy.
Mr. Huang naturally followed Zhang Ping'an and Liu Sanlang, and entered Zhang Ping'an's tent with the two of them.
Then he poured himself a cup of tea, saying, "After discussing matters all morning, I'm really thirsty. This commander personally chosen by our emperor is indeed a talented general, but he has a very bad temper. He will scold anyone he dislikes. As a result, I dare not drink too much tea, for fear of having to go to the toilet."
"I've gained some experience today," Zhang Ping'an nodded.
He then joked, "But I don't think this is your style, Master Huang. When did you ever put yourself in such a difficult position?"
Mr. Huang took two sips of tea, put down his cup, and then said, "You don't know, this guy has never been properly educated. He's no good at anything. When he scolds people, he doesn't care about his reputation. It would be so embarrassing if it got out. I won't argue with him!"
"After what happened today, I finally understand why Zhao Renzhi can get along well with everyone in the military camp," Zhang Pingan realized it again today.
"Haha, you are a smart one. I knew you would be able to see it," said Mr. Huang, with a look of foresight on his face, crossing his legs.
"What do you think the emperor is thinking? With his wisdom, it should not be difficult for him to guess the current situation," Zhang Pingan thought.
"Do you know who the taller and stronger one of the two deputy commanders is?" Lord Huang came over mysteriously and whispered.
"Who is it?" Zhang Ping'an asked politely.
"He was the one who first put the yellow robe on our emperor in the Jingzhou camp!" said Lord Huang.
Then he shook his head again: "What a pity. Although they have the merit of following the emperor, after the establishment of the new dynasty, when it comes to promotions and titles, they are ranked behind General Yang. What General Yang said just now was also referring to them!"
"That makes sense now," Zhang Pingan said.
In fact, he had already found out about 80% of the situation in the past two days, but seeing the tense situation between the two sides with his own eyes was still a bit beyond his expectations.
"Although Commander Yang isn't the most meritorious, nor the smartest, he is the most loyal. A ruler loves to appoint people like him, so it's perfect to put him in the position of Commander. He's the most suitable."
"That's right," Mr. Huang said, looking at Zhang Pingan with appreciation. He continued, "It is precisely because Deputy Marshal Yan is too smart and has the merit of following the emperor that we cannot continue to support him. Otherwise..."
Zhang Ping'an understood the unspoken meaning, otherwise he would most likely follow the old path of the current emperor and wear the yellow robe again.
They are all smart people, so there is no need to explain too much.
"However, the Northern Expedition is imminent. What will happen if they indulge in the pleasures of pleasure and the den of brothels?" Zhang Ping'an knew that the Northern Expedition was in line with the trend of the world and could not be delayed any longer.
If it's as early as March or May, or as late as July or August, we will definitely send troops.
After hearing this, Lord Huang said with a hint of meaning, "So you're here, aren't you? I think Sanlang is a natural-born military commander. There are also twenty or so other fifth and sixth-rank generals. I've dealt with them one by one, and they do have some talent. They will be the ones our commander will focus on supporting in the future. Sanlang's chance has come!"
"No wonder you were lamenting last night that your son-in-law Ruan San didn't show up. So this is what happened."
"Yes, it's a pity that Ruan San was not selected. Our commander-in-chief is just as you said, he is just right in all aspects. The emperor must have given him some private instructions," Lord Huang whispered.
"Don't these two deputy commanders have any sense of crisis?" Zhang Pingan was a little unconvinced.
"Haha, those who are involved are confused, while those who are on the sidelines can see clearly. They have not read much and still suffer from the lack of knowledge. In addition, power and wealth are dazzling, so it is inevitable that they cannot see their own position clearly. It is useless even if you remind them." Lord Huang has already seen the current situation clearly.
He continued, "As for the Northern Expedition you mentioned, don't worry. It will be finalized sooner or later, and sending troops is inevitable."
"I know that we will have to send troops sooner or later, but wars must be fought in an orderly manner. We cannot ignore the lives of so many soldiers. Moreover, it is not easy for the court to raise so much food and grass and transport them to Kaifeng. They are all saved from the mouths of the people. How can we take it lightly?" Zhang Pingan said in a deep voice.
"Look, you're getting impatient again. You're still young after all," Mr. Huang scolded.
Then he whispered to the two of them, "I think His Majesty has already devised a plan to repel the enemy. I know Yang Zhong a little bit. He may seem hot-tempered and not very smart, but he's actually quite capable. He's not the smartest, but he's definitely not stupid either. You two should just put your minds at ease. Just focus on the training and get your bodies in shape. When the battle comes, that's your asset!"
After saying this, he leaned forward, reached out his hand and patted Liu Sanlang on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Sanlang, Ping'an and I will rely on you from now on!"
Liu Sanlang understood about 70% of what he heard, nodded and said in a simple voice: "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I will definitely protect you two!"
"That's good. Swords and knives have no eyes, and we don't know martial arts. If something goes wrong, it's hard to say what will happen," said Lord Huang, stroking his beard.
This can be considered as a way out for himself.
There are undercurrents on the front line, and peace will not last long.
As the General Manager and Pacification Commissioner, Zhang Ping'an will only become busier and busier in the future.
It's a little empty now.
Therefore, searching for people has become urgent recently.
But there were tens of thousands of refugees outside Kaifeng City, and they were all very dirty, so their faces could not be seen clearly. It was indeed difficult to find them, and there was no news for a while.
During this period, Zhang Ping'an went to the Luo family to see Master Luo several times.
With a wheelchair, he can go out to the yard to bask in the sun and enjoy the breeze. With the right medicine, Mr. Luo is in much better spirits.
I talk more than before.
Seeing Zhang Pingan looking for someone and getting a little anxious, he comforted him: "We will meet again if we are destined to, don't worry!"
