Chapter 2186 The emperor’s thoughts, moodiness, and suspicion
After listening to Su Zhenting's words, Li Chen tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the chair without expressing his position.
Su Zhenting waited for a while, and when he saw that Li Chen remained silent, he broke the silence and said, "I am definitely not jealous of talented people. I am worried that my authority will be divided."
Li Chen said: "The general is overly worried about this. I have just said that the military is an extension of politics and ultimately serves politics. From this point of view, no one can replace General Su."
Same meaning, different way of saying it, but this time it’s said with a more or less tentative meaning.
The emperor's mind is moody and jealous.
The meaning of this sentence was directly handed to Su Zhenting. No one can replace you. What do you want to do?
Su Zhenting looked serious and said: "In this world, if there is really an irreplaceable person, then it can only be His Highness. I am just assisting His Highness to achieve things. Talented people and strangers are emerging in endless streams in this world. I have such little ability."
How can you be worthy of being replaced by no one? Your Highness is a shameful minister."
Li Chen laughed and said: "Let's not mention this for now. Can the general tell me clearly why I want them not to enter the center?"
Su Zhenting's expression became more serious and he said: "There are two reasons. First, the two generals Wu are rare actual combat generals. What Da Qin really lacks now is such actual combat generals with experience in large-scale battles. Their abilities should be valued more.
If you put it on the border or in a local area, once you enter the center, you will inevitably be entangled in political affairs, which is really a pity."
"Second, for the sake of balance, how do the two generals Wu enter the center? Should one be kept at Crescent Pass and the other be promoted to the center, or should both be admitted to the center?"
"Judging from the current situation, General Wu Banshan must guard the Crescent Pass. He is the defender of the Crescent Pass and is most familiar with the Crescent Pass. He can only be responsible for the reconstruction work, and only if he guards it, can we continue
To intimidate the Liao Kingdom, one hair can move the whole body. In the entire Gansu, Shaanxi, Crescent Pass and grasslands, which are thousands of miles inside and outside, only General Wu Banshan has the one hair that can move the whole body."
"Then Marshal Wu Qingcang joins the Central Committee? But in this case, two brothers, one is in charge of the military and the other is in a high position, must be guarded against."
Looking at Li Chen, Su Zhenting said solemnly: "So the best solution is that neither of the two generals Wu join the center, and Marshal Wu Qingcang cannot stay in Gansu and Shaanxi."
Li Chen raised his eyebrows, his expression showed no emotion or anger, he just asked calmly: "Where will you go if you don't leave Ganshan behind?"
Su Zhenting said in a deep voice: "South."
"Sooner or later there will be a big war between Da Qin and Liao, a war to destroy the country!" Li Chen said.
Su Zhenting said solemnly: "At that time, there will be no hindrance in sending Marshal Wu Qingcang to command the battle."
Li Chen raised his eyebrows and continued to press: "General Su is so determined, aren't you afraid of attracting the hatred of the two generals Wu?"
Su Zhenting said with a smile: "Su Pingbei will also go to the south and stay under Marshal Wu Qingcang as a soldier following orders. What else do they have to hold a grudge against?"
Li Chen sighed after hearing this... Fortunately, this Su Zhenting is one of his own.
He understands his own thoughts very well.
His whole idea almost perfectly fit his own idea. To be honest, if he were in the peaceful and prosperous times, Li Chen would have completely ignored Su Zhenting and stayed in the capital to raise him as a rich man, because he knew him too well.
For the sake of the stability of the imperial power, I cannot give him any authority.
