Seeing that the old general Zhang Yihai didn't respond, the fourth prince Long Tian immediately had an imperceptible sullen look on his face, and then returned to a warm smile.
"Old general?"
Seeing the old general Zhang Yihai with his eyes closed, Long Tian, ??the fourth prince, suppressed the anger in his heart and yelled again softly.
"The Fourth Highness is calling me?"
The old Zhang Yihai was gently pushed by a general next to him, and then he opened his cloudy eyes, and a hoarse voice sounded.
"The thieves captured the capital of Qinghe Province, and the inspector Yang Fang was killed. The thieves are powerful. I wonder what the old general thinks about this?" The fourth prince couldn't help feeling upset and asked with a smile.
Zhang Yihai, whose teeth were about to fall out, coughed, picked up the teacup next to him, and sipped.
"Your Highness, there is no need to worry. The bandit army is nothing more than a mob. As soon as our army arrives, they will fall apart." The old general Zhang Yihai said dismissively.
Seeing Zhang Yihai's underestimation of the enemy, the fourth prince couldn't help shaking his head. It seems that this old general who once galloped on the battlefield is really confused.
The rebel army was able to attack the city and overthrow the village in just a few months, defeating the dynasty army in Qinghe province, and its power became larger and larger. They were not ordinary mobs, but a powerful army capable of conquering and fighting.
Although the fourth prince was very afraid of the rebel army, he was the commander of the conquest army, so he couldn't show cowardice.
"With the old general's words, I feel relieved." The fourth prince forced a smile calmly.
"It's just that the thieves are raging in Qinghe Province now, so that people are dying, and their arrogance is really arrogant. Since our army has entered Qinghe Province, naturally we can't just stand by. I decided to send someone to kill the arrogance of the thieves." The fourth prince continued. .
Hearing that the Fourth Prince was going to send someone to make a tentative attack, Zhang Yihai couldn't help asking: "I don't know who His Highness is going to send as the vanguard?"
In name, Zhang Yihai came to assist the Fourth Prince in conquering the rebel army, but in fact he was a member of the Prince's lineage, and he was holding back everywhere.
His purpose of containment is nothing more than not wanting the fourth prince to build up too many military achievements, so as not to threaten the position of the prince.
"Who does the old general think is appropriate to send as the vanguard?"
Facing the inquiry, the fourth prince directly asked a question, and kicked the ball back.
"I thought Zhang Chen, the left general of the Black Cavalry Army, was a great leader." Zhang Yihai said straightforwardly.
General Zuo Zhang Chen is a child of his Zhang family, and he is also a high-ranking and powerful member of the Black Cavalry Army, belonging to the same line of princes.
Now they don't want the fourth prince to make too many meritorious deeds, but they want people from the prince's line to make meritorious deeds.
"In this case, according to the old general's words, let the left general Zhang Chen lead the army as the vanguard, and kill the arrogance of the bandit army."
The fourth prince seemed to have anticipated this result, and agreed directly.
"Left General Zhang Chen¡ª¡ª"
The Fourth Prince shouted.
"The end is here!"
A fat middle-aged general stood up in response, and the trembling fat made the fourth prince frown involuntarily.
"I order you to lead 10,000 black cavalry troops as the vanguard, sweep away the bandit troops on the way forward, and clear the way for the army."
"The last general takes orders!"
The fat left general Zhang Chen accepted the military order with a smile.
The Black Cavalry is an all-cavalry unit, belonging to the elite Central Army, well-equipped and well-trained.
Although Zhang Chen is the general of the left, he is not the only one who has the final say in the Black Cavalry Army, there are several other generals.
If he can make meritorious service this time, then he will be able to smoothly be promoted from the left general to the general of the Black Cavalry Army and take charge of the Black Cavalry Army. At that time, the Black Cavalry Army will become an important support for the prince's line.
When the left general Zhang Chen happily accepted the military order, the fourth prince was sneering.
In the eyes of the fourth prince, it seems so unreal for the rebel army to be able to attack the city and sweep the province.
He sent Zhang Chen, the left general, to fight. He just wanted to borrow a knife to kill people. With the help of the rebel army, he cut off the arm of the prince without giving anyone an excuse.
In the eyes of the Fourth Prince Longtian, the massive rebel army is not his main enemy, but his main enemy is inside.
The first thing he needs to do now is to clean up the interior, otherwise, he will be hindered everywhere, and even if he has established military exploits, it will only be a wedding dress for others.
Soon, the left general Zhang Chen personally led the 10,000 black cavalry Qingqi to break away from the slow main force, and charged directly towards the provincial capital of Qinghe.
"Fourth Highness, why did you give credit to Zhang Chen for nothing? He belongs to the crown prince."
Seeing the 10,000 black cavalry light cavalry set off a cloud of smoke and disappear on the horizon, the fourth prince's confidant generals were puzzled.
"Be safe and don't be impatient."
Seeing the confidants and generals who were puzzled, the fourth prince was calm and calm.
"That Zhang Chen is just an idiot. If it weren't for Zhang Yihai, he would have become General Zuo?"
"Your Highness, what do you mean?"
"The bandit army is not a mob. If Zhang Chen goes here, he might not come back alive." The fourth prince sneered.
After these confidants and generals heard this, they immediately understood that this was a trick to kill with a knife.
Thinking of letting 10,000 black cavalry light cavalry be buried with them in order to eliminate a political enemy, these confidant generals couldn't help but feel chills down their backs.
Their gazes towards the fourth prince became more respectful. Fortunately, they followed the fourth prince, not their opponents, otherwise, they would not know how they died.
"Zhang Yihai should also be tighter, control the dosage, and don't let him die too quickly." The fourth prince ordered.
On the surface, the fourth prince was constrained everywhere, and most of the generals were the prince's people, so he chose to endure.
In fact, the moment the army left the capital, he was already preparing for the internal cleansing.
It's just that he can't do these things blatantly, he needs to be silent so that everyone can't see it.
The old general Zhang Yihai's body is getting worse day by day, and now he is exhausted from marching again, so he needs to take medicine every day to recuperate.
The fourth prince, Long Tian, ??bribed the people around Zhang Yihai. He added a chronic poison to his medicine, which would make people lose energy and eventually die.
"Fourth Highness, the old guy is against you everywhere, why don't you kill him with one knife, saving your worry and effort." A confidant general said.
"No, you don't understand." The fourth prince smiled and shook his head.
"It's easy for me to find an excuse to get rid of Zhang Yihai, but have you thought about the consequences?"
"Zhang Yihai has already caused us a lot of headaches. If he dies and the court sends a more powerful deputy commander, it will be even more difficult for us to control the army. So now, it is better for him to be alive." Fourth Prince explain.
"The Fourth Highness is brilliant."
After these confidants and generals heard this, they had to admire their fourth prince's scheming.
"Retire, and make more friends with those neutral generals. When I am crowned emperor, I will not treat you badly."
"Thank you, Fourth Highness."
After a burst of excitement in the hearts of these confidant generals, they immediately took their leave and left.
"Thieves, don't let me down this time."
After everyone left, the fourth prince could not help muttering to himself when he saw the horizon in the distance. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
