"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 789
? Chen Ru, the former commander of the Qinghe Army, has experienced a lot of ups and downs, and he is also enlightened.
He was just a country gentleman with a little wealth in Qinghe Province back then, and he was able to become a commander in charge of the army step by step. In addition to the favorable environment for them, there was also an element of luck.
When the other two generals died, he was able to take charge of the Qinghe Army and become the new general.
However, under his leadership, the Qinghe Army did not achieve greater development, but suffered greater losses.
If Chen Ziang hadn't taken down Jiangnan Province and Jiangbei Province, the destruction of the Qinghe Army would only be a matter of time.
During the period of recuperation in Qingpu Mansion, Jiangnan Province, Chen Ru also calmed down, conducted a self-examination, and found that he was indeed not a commander-in-chief.
Chen Ru also learned about what Chen Ziang was doing in Jiangbei and Jiangnan Province these days.
Moreover, Chen Ru was very pleased to see the well-organized Qinghe Army troops here.
Chen Ziang is full of enterprising spirit, and he is both civil and military. The most important thing is that Chen Ziang has a broad mind and is able to accommodate others.
After some careful consideration, Chen Ru felt that it was the most correct choice to hand over the position of Marshal to Chen Ziang.
"Zi'ang, I'm old and useless. I'm no longer suitable to be the commander-in-chief of the Qinghe Army. Prepare yourself. I'll let you do it in public."
When Chen Ziang went to visit Chen Ru again a few days later, Chen Ru also had a conversation with Chen Ziang alone and expressed his attitude.
"Master"
Chen Ziang was about to speak when he was interrupted by Chen Ru waving his hand.
"If you still recognize me as a handsome man, promise me, otherwise, I will leave Jiangnan province now."
Chen Ru sighed: "I have been living in the shadow of swords and swords for the past two years, and I am worried all day long. I, an old man, also want to take a rest and don't want to toss any more."
When Li Qiye and the others persecuted him, he was indeed a little unwilling. He felt that he was forced, and he couldn't figure it out at that time.
But now seeing that Chen Ziang has not only built such a large foundation, but also managed it in an orderly manner, Chen Ru willingly gave way to Chen Ziang.
"Zi Ang, you can express your opinion now, whether you agree to me or not."
Seeing Chen Ziang who wanted to speak, Chen Ru didn't give Chen Ziang a chance to speak at all, but let him make a choice with a serious face.
"Since the commander-in-chief has spoken, I'd rather be respectful than obedient."
Chen Ziang is not a hypocritical person, because he is confident that he will lead the Qinghe army to become stronger and live a better life.
"well."
Seeing that Chen Ziang agreed, Chen Ru also showed a smile on his face, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
Chen Ru himself lacked the ability to command the army. It was precisely because of his lack of ability that he was walking on thin ice when he was in charge of the Qinghe Army.
Now seeing that Chen Ziang is willing to take over as commander-in-chief, Chen Ru has also relieved himself of the heavy burden, and no longer has to work hard for the survival of the Qinghe Army.
"Marshal, I have another unfeeling request, and I ask the commander to agree to me."
When Chen Ziang saw Chen Ru who suddenly looked relaxed, he smiled and made his request.
"Zi Ang, don't be so polite between you and me. If you need me to do something, just say it. Although I am old, I will do my best."
Chen Ru resigned from the position of commander-in-chief, and his mood improved inexplicably, and his speech became easier.
"Marshal, I would like to ask you to be the leader of the Rebel Army."
"The leader of the Rebel Army?"
"In the past, our Qinghe army was weak. In order to survive in the cracks of all forces, we had to keep a low profile, because this way we could not attract so much attention and survive better."
"But now we have two provinces, more than 100,000 elite soldiers, and our strength has threatened all forces. Even if we want to keep a low profile, our strength will not allow it."
"No matter what we do, many people will regard us as enemies, so we will definitely have a battle with them."
"Only relying on our Qinghe Army, whether it is against the court of the capital of the king, or the court of Pingyang Province, it is no match."
"So I decided to call all kinds of rebels to hold an alliance and integrate allLu Yijun formed a rebel force to compete with them. "
Chen Ziang also expressed his opinion of wanting to form a rebel alliance.
"I heard that people from the capital have been sent here. I think we can make a choice in the capital and Pingyang Province." Chen Ru also put forward his own suggestion.
"They need our strength now, so they naturally send people to appease us. Their purpose is to let us go to the front line, and the brothers will all become victims."
"Once the war is over, our brothers may have lost almost all of their losses. Once their opponents are dealt with, they will definitely come back and deal with us."
"We helped them win the war. We are heroes. They won't cross the river and tear down the bridge, right?" Chen Ru was puzzled.
"The aristocratic family has held power for hundreds of years. They have always been aloof. They look down on people like us and are absolutely unwilling to share power with people like us who come from reckless backgrounds."
"Furthermore, even if they don't pass the river and demolish the bridge, even if the brothers enter the imperial court in the future, they can't play tricks and tricks."
In fact, there is another important reason Chen Ziang did not mention, that is, once they submit to the court, they will lose the hearts of the people.
Once they decided to submit to the imperial court, those brothers who fought bloody battles would definitely not understand, thinking that they, the high-ranking officials, betrayed them in order to get promoted and get rich.
When the brothers in the rebel army no longer supported them, even if they held high positions in the court, they would have no backup.
At that time, if people want to deal with them, it will be as simple as crushing an ant.
Therefore, Chen Ziang has been deliberately negotiating conditions with the imperial court and delaying time. Apart from wanting to take a break, there is another important reason, which is to see the reaction of the various troops.
According to the situation reported by the Intelligence and Investigation Department, most of the brothers are unwilling to submit to the imperial court.
After all, they were full of hatred for the imperial court. Many people's homes were destroyed and their family members were killed by court officials. It can be said that they have a sworn hatred.
For most of the brothers, no matter whether it was Chen Ziang who joined the former prince or the former fourth prince, they all felt that Chen Ziang wanted to get promoted and get rich, and they would no longer support Chen Ziang.
Once he made a decision to surrender to the imperial court, it was foreseeable that the Qinghe army would fall apart, which was not what Chen Ziang wanted to see.
Chen Ziang originally wanted to play a balance between the original prince and the original fourth prince, so as to gain more benefits and strengthen and develop the Qinghe army.
However, after some investigation, he found that the brothers at the bottom don't think so much, they only believe what they see with their own eyes.
No matter which side he temporarily votes for, the brothers at the bottom will feel that they have been betrayed and will no longer support him.
Once he loses his support, no matter how much he can gain, it will not be worth the loss.
Therefore, Chen Ziang finally gave up playing a balance between the original prince and the fourth prince, but felt that he would unite with various insurgents and form a separate force.
Currently, in the Far Eastern Dynasty, the imperial court in the royal capital and the rebel court in Pingyang Province are the most powerful.
Almost all the major families in each province have voted into these two camps to fight against each other.
However, the situation of the rebel army, which had been vigorous and vigorous before, was scattered in various provinces and encountered various forces, the situation is not optimistic.
Therefore, Chen Ziang decided to form an alliance of rebels, integrate the scattered rebels, and form a third-party force capable of confronting the former prince and the fourth prince. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
